Chapter 2
A/N: My OC's height is 165cm and Sui-Feng's height is 150cm (in case you weren't aware!). I hope this allows you to have a better reading experience!
While Ichigo and his friends made their way into the Seireitei using a giant spirit cannon. Aveek used his advanced flash step to make his way to a certain familiar place, an empty clearing surrounded by a forest near the squad 2 building where a certain someone liked to train.
Suddenly, Aveek appeared stealthily behind a woman standing near one of the trees, supposedly taking a break. The woman was wearing a modified Stealth corps, black shunpo outfit which was quite revealing (manga outfit), she was a petite woman with short black hair; captain of squad 2 and commander of the stealth corps, her name was Sui-Feng. Aveek was extremely stealthy so as to not alert her of his presence so she wasn't aware of him standing right behind her. Aveek stepped to the right and put his left arm on her right shoulder, followed by a simple greeting "Hey!".
Sui-Feng was shocked for an instant before she turned her head and responded coldly "Oh…It's you…". Aveek now stepped in front of her and spoke "Hey, that's no way to greet the first ever, and arguably the strongest captain of squad 2, you know I was appointed by Yamamoto himself back in the day!". She sighed, unamused and replied "why are you here again?", to which Aveek answered "I want to know who gave me this ring?" while putting his right hand up for her to see.
When Sui-Feng looked at the ring, it invoked past memories in her mind. It reminded her of the days after Yoruichi left and how she wanted to get stronger but didn't know how. She then recalled the memory of Aveek suddenly appearing and introducing himself as the oldest captain of squad two. She distinctly remembered his power but also asked him "Why did you never appear before this?" to which she fondly remembered the answer to be "I left this life behind and chose to live peacefully, but seeing your determination to improve squad two made me remember my better days". She then suddenly remembered him also mentioning that he was not welcome in Soul Society anymore due to his previous departure. Her memories then fast-forwarded to the day she couldn't find Aveek anywhere, instead she found a note in his handwriting saying "Your training is complete for now, don't let me down" which then made her sob for a few hours. Sui-Feng then recalled that she went to buy a special present for him as she was heartbroken which was the golden ring, after he left. She used all her power and with the stealth force's help was able to locate Aveek's presence in the human world. Her final recollection was of herself going secretly to the human world and sneaking into his house at night to silently put the ring on his finger, before vanishing.
As Sui-Feng recalled this final memory, a visible blush appeared on her face which she shook off and finally replied coldly, "why are you asking me? I've never seen that ring before". Aveek visibly caught on to her lie so she attacked him first with shunpo. He easily blocked two of her punches but was caught off guard by a sudden kick from the side which didn't do much damage followed by Sui-Feng's harsh words, "all that time we trained together, meant nothing to you?". Before Aveek could respond, she engaged in full combat using her (sealed) sword, they were both flask stepping everywhere, with Sui-Feng on the offence and Aveek just trying to dodge and reason with her by saying "I'm sorry, I didn't realize that it hurt you so much…". However, she kept attacking, more saddened than actually furious, she was attacking randomly and sloppily, not like her usual collected self. Sui-Feng thrust her sword forward, but it was easily caught by the former captain's bare hand, she then started again, this time with a few tears in her eyes, "When I first met you, you promised me that you would stay by my side forever, but instead you selfishly left without even saying anything!". Aveek wittily replied "what? Do I sense a bit of warmth in that cold heart of yours?" but he paid for this as Sui-Feng was now livid and with all her strength, landed a hard punch on Aveek's abdomen which sent him flying backwards (slightly surprising him). Aveek looked back with an amused expression and was about to make a sly remark but was shocked to instead see the cute girl now in tears, she sobbed and finally said "It's ok (sniff) I get it (sniff) you never thought of me as a woman (sniff) worthy of yourself because I was never (sniff) as strong as you", she quivered with her sword in hand and continued, "Someone like you would never understand my-".
Before she finished or noticed, Aveek used advanced flash step to appear right in front of her. He gently grabbed the sobbing captain's shoulders and said warmly, "Hopeless idiot, I fell for you the moment we first met…". Sui-Feng could not believe what she had just heard, it made her heart skip a beat. The cute captain looked up to speak but found that she couldn't, instead she felt a soft warmth pressed upon her lips. She thought that nothing could surprise her anymore, but she was wrong. Sui-Feng tried to deepen the kiss but was so shy that she accidentally dropped her sword. Within seconds the stealth force was inadvertently summoned all around them.
Aveek was the first to notice their presence and broke from the kiss, still deeply staring into the cute girl's eyes. He ruined the romantic atmosphere and said, semi-patronizingly, "I see you're still as clumsy as ever, Soi-chan", while pointing down at her sword. For a second Sui-Feng doesn't realize it but then it hits her, the entire damn Stealth Squad saw their little romantic public display of affection. She turned bright red from embarrassment and slowly turned around to face the lead member of the unit who was also clearly not comfortable seeing the fierce captain in this vulnerable state. Sui-Feng observed the quiet atmosphere and announced "just to be clear, none of you saw that, right?" in a quizzical tone although she already knew the answer. However, she got a very peculiar response, the entire stealth squad burst into applause and cheers mixed in with comments such as "Yes! Our captain finally got a boyfriend!", "oooh, he called her Soi-chan!" and "Encore! Encore! Encore!". The shy and flustered captain couldn't handle this and resorted to covering her face with her hands. Aveek watched her expression and commented "Soi-chan, you're so cute when you act all Tsundere", this statement broke the girl out of her current state and pissed her off. However, before she could show him a piece of her mind he grabbed her and started carrying her princess-style in order to satiate the audience's desires. The expression on Sui-Feng's face became completely priceless and extremely cute, this was of course followed by even louder roars from the squad. Ironically the stealth squad was making so much noise now that they basically would've tarnished their reputation, had they been on an actual battlefield, but, that was currently besides the point.
