A.N: Holy Crap, it's been bloody ever since we last updated huh? I'll take full responsibility seeing as it was my imagination that crapped out on you guys. I'd been working so hard for State that my creativity decided to take a vacation. But don't worry, now I'm making it work overtime for all the days it was gone. :D Well, I don't want to make you guys wait any longer than you already have, so… Enjoy!
Brooke's Zen of the Day: It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the molecular level; I'm really quite busy.

Their first mistake? Leaving me to my own devises.
By 'their' I mean Toshiro and Rangiku, and the mistake is rather self-explanatory. If they would have known me at all at this point, they would have already known that and never made such a crucial blunder.
Apparently Toshiro had paper work to do, and Rangiku had a hell-of-a-hangover so I had to be 'hush-hush.' Just one of the many things that I'm not very good at, meaning I had to find something to do that was quiet, or FAR FAR AWAY. I chose the later of the two options and went on an epic quest around the barracks and to make a long story short, found a closet full of towels, sheets, blankets, and others objects of the sorts. With this discovery, there was only one thing to do, become a SUPER HERO MOTHER FUCKER! (I just about yelled that too! Good thing I didn't, cause then Rangiku would kill me for being loud, and dead people can't be su-… strike that, they can.)
Moving on, I grabbed a butt load of the sheets and decided to go on a mission of mass destruction and chaos. So I was going to need help. Hehehe….
Else where…. (third person)
Byakuya was trying to do his paper work. (which is all captains seem to do, while their lieutenants drink themselves blind) Something he did everyday without fail, you wanna know why? He's got a stick up his ass and people with sticks up their asses do paper work when they are supposed to, not put it off like the rest of us. Why was today any different you ask? Because his new houseguest didn't get what an 'inside voice' was by Byakuya-Standards. You know that six-inch voice your first grade teacher made you use? That meets Byakuya-Standards. Talking does not.
Moving away from Byakuya's obvious control problems, let's get back to the point at hand. Why he couldn't do his work. This is because his houseguest, Fran, was bored. And a bored Fran is a dangerous Fran; it's just as simple as that.
The dangerous person in question was next door entertaining herself with the two things she had been able to have on her person when she was 'kidnapped' without raising suspicion. Her Ipod was playing loudly in her ears as she messed around with her cell phone. Editing pictures of Espada and Soul Reapers and writing funny things on her cell's note pad could keep her occupied long enough to keep her out of trouble. Sadly, because of her Ipod being up all the way, she couldn't really tell how loud she was being whenever she started laughing or singing.
She was in the process of editing a picture of Emocar so it kinda looked like he was smiling when a UFO flew down and hit her in the head. The UFO ended up being a paper airplane that had been thrown into her window. Taking one ear bud out she heard giggling as someone ran away. Opening the paper up she found a note, and it read…
Yo Fran!I gots a plan! (Hehe that rhymed ^_^)
Meet me outside between the 7th and 8th barracks in
ten minutes if you wanna partake in the fun!
Brookie!
Needless to say, Byakuya was a little weirded out when an intense giggle-fit was heard from the room next to him before everything went quiet.
Else, else where
Katie was having a delightful conversation with Shuuhei while he did paper work (see Captains = loads of the work on paper) and she played solitaire on her computer. The pyro's day had been pretty laidback, consisting mostly of relaxing in the surprisingly calm atmosphere that was the Squad 9 Barracks, so far. But, knowing her friends, they'd find something exciting to do, and she'd get dragged into it somehow, all Katie had to do was wait and see what was going to happened.
Finally, around 2:30, something did.
One of the unseated officers of Squad 9 came into the room hesitantly, looking around like they weren't quiet sure what they should do. Katie deducted that they'd obviously hadn't been in Squad 9 for very long seeing as they seemed to be scared of Shuuhei, who although can be scary appearance wise, isn't very scary if you know him.
"I-I have a m-message for you." The Soul Reaper stuttered, not knowing where to look.
"Okay, what does it say?" Shuuhei asked watching the unseated officer.
"It's n-not for you, I-it's for h-her." They stuttered, motioning towards the pyro, now choosing to look at the apparently very interesting floor.
"Okay…." Katie said sounding slightly baffled at this.
"W-well, it s-says…" the Soul Reaper stopped for a minute as if trying to remember exactly what it had said before continuing, "Katie-chan, get your ass outside between the squad 7 and 8 barracks. NOW!" They yelled, emphasizing the now before going back to their normal, stuttery self, "a-and when I asked them wh-who the message was f-from, they s-said to t-tell you that you w-won't know unless you g-get your ass o-out there."
"Um, thank you?" the message receiver thanked, not knowing exactly how she should respond to the message.
"You can go." Shuuhei told them. The unconfident Soul Reaper bowed before scurrying out of the room, obviously happy to be able to leave.
"Well, looks like I got to go on an adventure." Katie said once the door had been shut, "See ya later Shuuhei." She waved before leaving the room to go figure out who had sent her the message, although she had a pretty good idea.

I was jogging over to the spot where I was supposed to meet my friends, hoping I wasn't going to be late. My arms were full of the supplies I had gathered after sending my two friends their respective notes telling them where to go. Approaching said spot I saw my two friends staring down at the mound of towels/sheets I had put on the ground along with a note that read: Do not touch or suffer the cruel and unusual punishment! What? I didn't have the arm carrying capacity to run around carrying all those stol-… I mean borrowed sheets and towels while I was making sure my friends got their messages and as I looked for supplies. It was simply not possible.
"Hey guys, what's up?" I asked as I walked up behind them.
"Brooke, did you set these here?" Katie asked me as she and Fran turned to look at me.
"Yup"
"And send Katie and I the notes?"
"Affirmative."
"And make that pour Soul Reaper guy who gave me the message almost pee his pants?"
"Indubitably."
"… You're an idiot." Katie joked as Fran laughed at me while I faked pouted.
"Well if you feel that way, I won't tell you what my masterful plan is then. I'll just tell Fran."
"You know you're going to tell me so you might as well say it anyways." Katie said and Fran nodded in agreement. I sighed and signaled them closer.
"Ok here's the plan. I got really bored today and thought of an awesome idea…. What if we were… SUPERHEROS?" I said excitedly. Katie grinned manically and rubbed her hands together in the evil person way. Fran giggled and jumped up and down "So guys what do ya think? We can use the borrowed sheets and towels as CAPES!"
"YAY free capes!" Katie said digging around in the pile. She pulled out a white sheet and tied it around her neck and stood heroically. Fran and I mock saluted her and we burst into a pack of laughing.
"Wait guys! We need to make our sheets colorful!" Katie said pulling her cape off "I have the perfect idea! Stay right there" Katie took off and was soon back with a huge sack and she plopped on the ground with her new cape.
"Ok guys, I got all of this art supplies from Yumichika so I think we're good to go" Katie flipped the bag over and a ton of art supplies spilled out. I was surprised at how much stuff she packed in there. There was everything from paintbrushes to palettes of charcoal and everything in between
Holy crap! Yumi's been holding out on us!" I said grabbing a paintbrush and sitting on the ground next to my friend, Fran followed suit and we began making our mystical capes of Wonderment.
"Did you ever notice that you got more art supplies than me?" I said grabbing a palette of paint.
"Yes, I did!" Katie said painting flames on her cape. "So I think we totally need some superhero names"
Fran and I agreed and we started listing off names.
Nightshade, The Vindicator, Master Fox, Hawkeyes, The incredible Ms. Finch, hair woman, Copycat, Awesome Girl, Puma Girl. The list kept getting longer and longer as we came up with the most ridiculous names ever.
"So I think I want the name Bat Girl!" Fran announced, making Katie and me laugh as she picked up her cape and showed it to us. It was lime green with a batman sign and black slashes going up and down the cape.
Katie finished hers and showed it to us. It was all black and had different shades of red and orange flames on the back.
"Let me guess, The Amazing Pyro?" I asked as I looked at her very fire themed cape, causing said pyro to smile sheepishly and shook her head.
"Close, but no cigar," She said as her smile widened, "I was thinking something a little more along the lines of 'Wiley-Coyote.'" She laughed at her joke.
"Wait… is Stark a wolf or a coyote?" Fran asked us, "Cause his name is 'Coyote' Stark, but I think one of his attacks says something about wolves, or something like that." She pointed out, causing the three of us to stop whatever we were doing to ponder this intricate question.
"Let's go with a coyote, so I can keep that cool name." Katie determined, and with such a good reason, how could we say other wise? "What are you going to be called Brooke?" Katie continued with an evil look in her eye as I stared at the blank spot in the middle of my cape where my 'logo' would go, 'cause you can't really put a logo there if you have none. Besides the logo, the rest of my cape was done, it was a black sheet, with neon blue lightning bolts.
"No clue, I was thinking about 'Awesome Girl,' but I'm not sure if I like it, you guys have any ideas?" I asked coyly, knowing that Katie was going somewhere with this, Fran was probably in on it too… Damn my friends for being so sneaky, and damn Fran for being able to communicate telepathically.
"Well," Fran trailed off, putting a figure to her lips as she thought, besides her Katie did the same, causing me to laugh and roll my eyes at the two of them.
"How about… 'Hell Cat'?" Katie grinned at me, causing me to once again roll my eyes.
"Well, if we're going in that direction, how about 'Puma Girl'?" I suggested getting a few snickers from my friends, "after my very own Puma-Sempia."
"I like it." Fran agreed.
"Fine, Puma Girl it is." I agreed as I started painting a black puma symbol inside a blue circle, you know, the one from the 'Puma' shoes? "Done~!" I chimed as I finally finished it. Holding it up for my good friends to see, I hung it up next to theirs while I began cutting out my mask, cause what good is a super hero/villain, if everyone knows what their secrete identity is? That's right, no good, because said super hero/villain would be D.E.A.D. Dead.
We kept the masks simple, a black strip of fabric that we tied around our heads and cut eyeholes out of, not necessary in that order of course. If it were in that order, we would have no eyes at this point. Katie then got out a secrete stash of makeup that she had apparently stolen from Yumichika too, he was going to hate us later. This stolen makeup soon became war paint. Just as we were about to run off, Fran had an idea.
"Wait! Are we super heroes, or super villains?"
"Well, I'm defiantly a super villain." I told them.
"We all are if you really think about it…" Katie agreed, trailing off letting us all get what she meant, in the eyes of the Soul Reapers, we'd be considered 'bad guys.' But saying we're bad guys is just the good guys opinion.
"But we're pretending to be good guys so know one that we're actually trying to destroy/concur the world, not save it." Fran added, making us all nod in agreement.
"Touché. Now, what is our first assignment?" I asked as I tied my now dry cape around my neck before striking an epic pose.
"I say, we run around and act like we can fly until we find someone to mess with." Katie suggested.
"Agreed." And with that, we were off. Running around the Seireitei and pretending you can fly is a lot of fun seeing as there are many spots to hide, climb, and jump off of. But remember, we did have a plan, and eventually we found someone to bug, well, actually they found us. It all happened when we decided to fun past the Squad 11 barracks. Why? Because we don't care if we get attacked and have to fight to the death because we are super heroes (villains) and we can fend off the forces of evil (good).
Our real fun started like this:
"Hey, You're the ones who stole my makeup!" A rather feminine voice yelled at us, turning around we saw a rather angry, yet still girly, Yumichika yelling comically while pointing at us oh so rudely, some people have no manners.
"No ma'am, that was Katie, not us." Fran told him as he marched right up to us, "And didn't your mother teach you that it's not polite to point?"
"Give me back my makeup!" He yelled, I saw Katie hold in a laugh.
"We don't have your makeup ma'am, we're Super Heroes, and Super Heroes don't steal." Katie announced cueing all three of us to make epic poses. I could almost see the imaginary sparkles and blinding light of goodness behind us. If we were in Naruto we would have had the imaginary sunset from Gai and Lee's 'moments,' but, alas, we aren't in Naruto, to the blinding light of all that is good a pure will have to do, even if it is lying.
"Yeah, you do scare us!" I taunted Yumichika getting into a glaring contest with the man/she. We never got to find out the winner however, because only a few seconds in I felt Fran poke me shoulder. Turning around I saw the scariest man on earth. I mean, if you think Aizen's scary with his mind tricks then this guy is just plain terrifying. Here's the difference between the two of them. You meet Aizen in a dark ally, he'll trick you into giving him all your money, using your house as a base to perform highly illegal deeds, and then, when all your resources have been abused, kill you without making you feel like he wronged you. You meet this man in a dark ally, and let's just say, you wont live long enough to contemplate all this. We're talking about the one, the only, KENNY!
"Now you. You scare us." I said bluntly pointing up at the scary pirate man. Yeah, I have just the same amount of manners as Yumichika, if not less, so I can point.
"What are you three weirdoes doing?" He asked, looking at us through his one eye while Yachiru stared at us interested.
"Um, we're super heroes?" Katie told him, although it came out more like a question than anything else. I don't care how un-scare-able you think you are, you come face to face with a walking, threatening, pirate, brick wall and you might just wanna wet yourself.
"You're super heroes? Do you have cool powers?" Yachiru asked us sounding chipper and excited.
"Yes! Yes we do!" Fran told her, sounding happy because we weren't lying, hey, we don't lie all the time, just when we're around Soul Reapers… or law enforcement officials. (1) At Fran's confirmation, Yachiru's eyes lit up, Kenny on the other hand just stared at the three of us like he was trying to figure out which one of us would put up the best fight, if any of us.
"What can you do?" Pinky continued questioning Fran.
"Well, she's a pyro, she smites people," Fran motioned to Katie and me while little bubblegum head watched her with wide eyes, "and I'm psychic."
"More like psychotic." Katie muttered making Fran retaliate with violence, which was hilarious.
"Hey, you're the ones that were working for Aizen aren't you?" Kenny finally asked staring at the three of us.
"Not any more." Katie told him almost too quickly but I'm pretty sure that neither the captain nor his child lieutenant noticed, I'm not to sure about Yumichika, who was still fuming about his make up and Ikkaku, who had walked over to see what was going on.
"Nope, we ditched that Popsicle stand." I agreed sound a whole lot less solemn about it as I took off my super hero masking seeing as my secrete identity had already been blown and it was cutting off half of the things in my line of vision.
"That doesn't change the fact that you stole my favorite makeup!" Yumichika complained making us snicker at a guy complaining about someone stealing his makeup.
"Omg, you're my new gay friend!" Katie announced happily cracking me up, seriously even Ikkaku and Kenny laugh at that, which only made Yumi-chan all the more upset. Okay, I know this question was going to come up eventually but I love Katie's delivery, not only did she call him gay, she declared him to be her friend, how can you get made at someone who's your friend?
"Geezes calm down Yumi-Chan, its not like we all didn't know the way your river flowed anyway. Katie did not just reveal some big secrete" Fran laughed as he just stared at us totally flabbergasted, I don't think he knew what to think.
"Don't worry, we're not here to judge you." I agreed, putting an hand on his shoulder in what was supposed to be a comforting manner. This seemed to have an adverse effect however, and the rather flamboyantly looking man finally snapped.
"I'm going to kill you!" He yelled before he began chasing after us with intent to severely hurt whoever he caught. The rest of the day our Super Hero/Villain 'mission' was to try and drive Yumichika crazy without getting caught and killed by the featherhead, I'd say we did a great job. Another day well spent in the Soul Society.
END CHAPTER!
1. We do NOT encourage people to lie to law enforcement officials or commit illegal acts, no matter how fun the maybe.
A.N: So, was it worth the wait? No? Then go bug Katie to get her to update, it is no longer my problem… okay it kinda is.
In other news, we have finally managed to locate our missing 'Puma' 'Spada. It took ten animal control specialist three hours to finally tranquilize him, but I think they used too much tranquilizer…
Grimmjow: *is in background singing 'the ittsy-bitssy 'Spada' to himself groggily while rocking back and forth in a snow white outfit*
Either way, if you are one of the poor souls whose yards/rooms/houses/lives were destroyed by out naughty Grimmy-Kitty then we'll send over a 'Spada of your choosing to help clean everything up for you. If you don't tell us who you want then we're sending Stark so we can make him do work. So, please review and tell us what you think of our chapter and who you want to clean up for you, and if your one of those few that didn't get affected by the Grimmjow rampage, then review anyways and get a cookie.
