Chapter 52: The new Taichou of the 5th division OMG I'm sorry I haven't updated in ages! I've been too busy with my…completely random Soul Eater fanfiction and other stuff! But I, KarinXToshiro, AM BACK! (just pretend the usual disclaimer is here, okay?) if you reviewed, then I love you! Please review people! (Oh come on, my two chapter long Soul Eater fan fiction which isn't even serious is catching up in popularity) Oh! Before I start, after this arc (I may have already said this) this fan fiction will, sadly, come to an end :)
Kikyo sighed as she positioned herself in her usual place in the Taichou's meeting hall, immediately noticing that the Taichou of 6th division was absent, maybe he was assisting his division in the search for clues on Organization Kuraitsuki. Apart from the noble Taichou, though, everyone else was already standing straight in their given spots.
Kikyo knew that this meeting was going to be an important one, mainly because…The Taichou qualification Exams had taken place yesterday, and the position as 5th division Taichou was now taken. Everyone's head shot up, their eyes fixing on the elderly soutaichou when the sound of his staff colliding with the wooden floor echoed throughout the meeting hall,
"The meeting will now commence." He announced after clearing his throat, multiple Taichous nodding before he continued, "As you all know, the Taichou qualification exams took place yesterday. Shunsui, Unohana and Ukitake know that one person succeeded and will now be claiming the position of 5th division Taichou."
Kikyo gasped, wondering who had gotten the job,
"The new Taichou of the 5th division was previously leading a small investigation team in Hueco Mundo, which few of you may have heard about. They decided to call the research off after the war the winter before last, but they got stranded in Hueco Mundo. They've just recently escaped after we thought they were dead." Yamamato explained, Kikyo widening her eyes, So it's someone I don't know? She thought to herself.
"You may enter now, Takara Yoshida." Yamamato called, everyone's head turning quickly to face the large door which was noisily creaking open. An extremely tall and skinny woman entered the room, her shiny black hair hanging like a curtain around her face and her topaz eyes cold, a sharp shiver going down Kikyo's spine when their eyes met. The dead-pan faced woman stationed herself obediently and silently in the space that had been provided for her and stared at the Soutaichou with bored eyes. She would have been very beautiful if the dark circles under her eyes hadn't been so deep.
"Moving onto the next matter," Yamamato started after she'd settled in and the Taichou's eyes hand finally un-glued themselves from her, "The amount of deaths holding traces of Organization Kuraitsuki's reiatsu has been increasing dramatically. We haven't heard from Kuchiki Byakuya or his division since he left."
Kikyo and Toshiro exchanged concerned glances at hearing this, Kikyo hadn't really been friends with the intimidating man, but he was still a fellow Taichou and Gotei 13 member,
"I want to send the 3rd division to go find them and hopefully bring them back." Yamamato announced, Kikyo gasping,
"M-Me?" she stuttered without thinking, Yamamato opening his eyes,
"Well you're the 3rd division Taichou, aren't you? Therefore, yes, you."
"S-Sorry." She mumbled, looking away with an embarrassed blush on her face.
Kikyo sighed when she finally got back to her office, sinking tiredly into her seat and staring at the pile of paperwork before her. So many things are happening at once…She thought to herself, resting her head on the desk and closing her eyes sleepily, Auntie is back…Kuraitsuki are active again…There's a new Taichou…Kuchiki is missing…I have to find him…
She yawned, rubbing her eyes, it was so tiring…There seemed to be meetings every five minutes…She'd do anything for a break at the moment…
The small girl walked through the streets of Rukongai, her spiky black hair bouncing and her lime green eyes gleaming. Her mind was just a white mass right now, with no real thoughts crossing it. Her eyes were wide and her lips were twisted into an insane smile which seemed to reach all of the way up to her eyes. Excitement swept over her when the silhouette of a person came into view up ahead. She broke into a run, the woman who was now fully in view turning her head just in time to see the petite girl dashing up to her.
A scream echoed throughout the deserted streets and the girl giggled crazily and darkly as she walked away from the pool of blood behind her.
Yuki strolled through the deepest depths of Rukongai in the darkness, the moon high up in the sky, it's dim light just enough for her to see where she was going. The scream she had just heard…That meant they were nearby. She gulped, grasping the hilt of her zanpakuto firmly.
Her usual bubbly mood was not with her tonight, she had more serious things to talk about. Suddenly, she felt a breath-takingly strong reiatsu from behind her, spinning around with a gasp to see a small girl, to her horror, spattered with crimson blood, her lime eyes wide in a creepy manner,
"That's…definitely a Kuraitsuki." She whispered to herself, getting into battle position as she unsheathed her zanpakuto. Stop shaking…She thought to herself, closing her eyes momentarily, You won't be able to do anything with all of this fear…Her body didn't stop trembling as she stared the girl in the eye, Looks like she's been busy…Yuki sighed, This girls reiatsu…Her powers are still in effect.
"Good evening, Shinigami." The pale woman sang gently in a lullaby kind of voice, staring at the cold, indigo eyes with a seductive smirk on her face,
"You're friends are all dead…And you will be soon…Don't look at me like that, I just want peace, it's you who got violent." She chuckled before her lips twisted into a frown, her eyebrows slanting downwards into an angry expression, "Kuchiki Byakuya." She spat before smirking again, walking towards the exit, "night, night." She sang before the door shut and the 6th division Taichou was left in darkness, glaring after her as he heard a key in the lock accompanied by her humming.
