"Oh, Kenny. It's only been one day. I'm sure she'll seem better once you know her," Yachiru smiled as she clung to the giants shoulder.

Kenpachi grunted. He knew this damned match maker was going to be annoying. He met his 'match' just like everyone else and was greatly disappointed. It had to have been a joke or something. He shivered as he remembered the damn meeting.

"Eh, Captain there's a girly here fer ya," Ikkaku grinned as he stuck his head into the office, obviously finding something terribly amusing.

Kenpachi could feel his stomach drop, dreading meeting the woman already. The looked on Ikkaku's face did not do anything for his confidence in the woman he had yet to meet. "Send 'er in," he grunted, leaning back in his chair lazily.

The next thing he knew there was a small woman with blonde pony tails bouncing into her room. She had way to much make up on and was carrying a small pink bag. Kenpachi soon came to know what was in that bag: cookies and candy galore for Yachiru. Great, now his lieutenant was going to get cavities and he'd have to hear her whine about it.

She was annoying. Absolutely annoying. Her voice made Kenpachi want to rip his ears off.

"Hi~ Oh. My. Go~d. I am so happy to be here right now! Like, you wouldn't even believe. Hahahaha~" her laugh was even worse. "Never in a million ye~ars would I guess I'd be matched with cute little Kenny~"

His eye twitched at that. Who the fuck did this woman think she was? 'Kenny' was Yachiru's nickname for him and she was the only person he would ever let call him that. Besides 'Kenny' could easily break every bone in her body. He was not 'cute' or 'little'.

She even tried to kiss him on her way out but there was no way he was touching that. It looked like she had put bright red lipstick on and then slathered her lips with lip gloss. Literally slathered. Make up already wasn't something he liked on a woman but too much make up just repulsed him.

"She gave me candy, Kenny~ I want more," Yachiru whined softly, trying to convince her larger friend not to change his match. Not that Yachiru actually liked the woman; the candy was just really good.

"I don't give a damn. I'm switchin'. I ain't gonna spend the next few weeks, or however damn long this is going to last, with someone I can't stand. I'll end up bashing my own head in if I hear her damn voice again," he growled under his breath.

They walked in silence for a while, Yachiru pouting on the male's shoulder as she thought about the candy she won't be getting again. That's when her ride came to a sudden stop. She looked up when she heard a voice- that actually wasn't Kenny's -cursing.

"Mother fucker- watch where you're fuckin' goin' you big-" the cursing stopped short as the red headed girl noticed the captain haori.

Raiko finally looked up only to see the scariest man in the seireitei. She fumbled a bit before narrowing her eyes and pursing her lips. "My apologies, Zara- Captain Zaraki," she said through gritted teeth before slightly bowing her head and storming off.

The two could still hear her cursing and grumbled to herself as she walked away. Yachiru thought Kenpachi would get mad about being talked to like that but when she looked at the spikey-haired man, the only thing she saw was a wide grin.

"Now that would be 100x better than the damned bitch they matched me with. A girl who ain't afraid to cuss. I betcha she woulda fought me if I weren't a captain," Kenpachi grinned triumphantly. He wondered if she had a match. She really did seem interesting.

'Plus she actually had a fairly decent body' Kenpachi though as his eyes wandered over the woman stomping away. She wasn't exactly volumptious but she wasn't a stick either. She at least looked like she could withstand a round or two with him which was hard to find-

"Kenny~!" Yachiro yelled in his ear suddenly. "Gotta go that way! Follow her. She's going in the right direction."

He grunted. Finally. They had been walking for at least an hour now. He had no idea where he was going. Yachiru was supposed to be showing him where to go to ask for a different match but she wasn't doing a good job. He didn't understand why she couldn't just ask for him. She was part of the stupid Shinigami Women's Association. She could easily tell them he didn't want his match.

He sighed and began following after the woman who had cursed at him.

'Shitshitshitshitshit' Raiko cursed over and over to herself. She had run into Captain fucking Zaraki of all people. She even cursed him and started to yell at him. How was she still alive?

"If he wasn't a damned captain I would've hit him," she grumbled to herself.

Now she was just praying for her life as she dared not turn around. A couple minutes after she ran into the brute, she noticed he was following her. She thought for sure he was going to kill her. Seina had told her a million times she should really learn how to keep her mouth shut.

Raiko was almost to the Shinigami Women's Association base and he was still behind her. He was quite a ways away but still behind her.

'I just wanted a new match,' she thought to herself solemnly. This was it. This was the end. If she could just get to the base before he decided to kill her...

5 minutes went by and Raiko was finally safe inside the building the SWA was using as a base. He wouldn't kill her in front of people, would he? Hell, he was Kenpachi Zaraki for fucks sake. If anyone would do it and be able to get away with it, it would be him.

To Raiko's surprise, there was only a handful of people there to switch. Was everyone really that happy with their match? She hoped to god there would be someone else who asked for a switch that would be at least a little decent.

"Are you here for a switch?" A woman with light skin and black hair sitting behind a table asked, looking at Raiko pointedly.

"U-uh... yea, I am," she replied after looking around and making sure the woman was actually talking to her. After confirming, she walked up to the make-shift desk and gave the woman her name (or rather Seina's name) so she could search for the next best match.

"Ok, dear. I don't see anyone as of yet that match very well with you but if I find something I can contact you?" She suggested with a kind smile.

Raiko sighed, a little disappointed at first. Then she realized, this just meant she wouldn't psrticipate until she had a match. It wasn't like she wanted to so this would be great. "Oh, ok. That's fine. I just can't handle the guy I have now so... you guys aren't going to force me to participate with him, are you?" She asked curiously, wanting to make sure.

The woman shook her head. "We won't force you to participate if you really feel like you can't stand your match. I'm sorry you aren't happy with the results."

"That's really ok. Thanks." The red head turned to leave only to see the large captain of squad 11 once again. Was he honestly following her? What the hell?

The large man started to walk towards her, making her tense and fear for her life. She closed her eyes and waited for her fateful death.

Only it didn't come. She opened her eyes to see the captain standing at the desk doing his own business.

She let out a heavy sigh and started to walk away. If she put distance between them now, he didn't have a chance to kill her, right?

"What about her?" Kenpachi asked the woman intensely, jutting his thumb towards Raiko. The woman looked at the girl in question and quickly flipped through her books.

"S-Seina Kobayashi! Please don't leave yet. I may have found you a match," the woman called towards Raiko, obviously scared that if she didn't do what Kenpachi wanted she may die.

Raiko didn't register the name for a second before remembering 'I'm supposed to be Seina... shit.'

She turned slowly to looked at the large captain at the desk. 'Oh god... please no...' she thought to herself, dread filling her face.

The red head slowly started to walk back to the desk, trying to avoid any eye contact with the large brute beside her. She was stiff as a board. She bit her tongue roughly just to make sure she didn't end up saying anything that would get her killed.

"Who... who would be my match?" She asked, already knowing the answer but still afraid to actually hear it said out loud.

"Captain Zaraki requested you a-and according to your sheets, you both are fairly compatible," the woman said nervously, gesturing to Kenpachi.

Was this some kind of sick joke? Was he just asking for her so he got a chance to kill her? What the hell was he planning. Like hell he was actually interested.

"O...k..." she looked down as if defeated. What was she supposed to say to that? How could she get out of this? "Are you sure? 'M really not that great. I'm annoying and swear a lot and back talk all the time. You don't want someone as rude as me," she started to pleade with the captain, not sure what else to do.

Kenpachi grinned sadistically at the woman. "Sounds great. I'll take 'er," he turned to the woman behind the desk. He acted as if that was a salespitch and he was hooked.

"Excuse me? I ain't a damn toy you just buy. What the hell is that supposed to mean anyway? 'I'll take her'? You're not picking a damn dog out from the pound!" Raiko snapped at the man, unable to hold back her annoyance. Her face was red with anger, her green eyes flared with hatred.

She slapped a hand over her mouth when she realized what she said. Shit... Now she was dead for sure.

Kenpachi's smirk only widened at that. He didn't say anything which seemed to tell the woman behind the desk that he still wanted Raiko. Raiko stared at her in disbelief. Why was she still making them a match!? Obviously both parties were not happy.

She scribbled stuff down on a paper before turning to the two. "Y-you guys can spend time now to make up for yesturday o-or you can just wait for the next game," she explained nervously, dark eyes flickering between the two equally terrifying soul reapers.

Raiko looked at the woman as if she were crazy to say such a thing. "Thank's but I think we'll just wait," she muttered quickly, turning on her heels and scurrying for the door. She just wanted to get out of there before the captain decided they should talk further.

"Eh, woman!" Kenpachi grunted after the red head, turning and walking towards her. He didn't bother to quicken his pace to catch up to her, knowing if he needed to he could get her to stop with just a threat.

Raiko thought about running at that moment. It was a known fact that the captin of squad 11 couldn't do kido or flash step. Even though Raiko wasn't very good at flash step she still felt she could run away if she wanted to. Then again, he might just kill her the next time they had to see each other so she decided against the idea.

Coming to a halt outside the base, she turned to look at the large male. Damn he was tall. Like a giant. Raiko was already tall for a woman being 6' but Kenpachi still towered over her at 6'7. She tried not to cower from the intimidating man. She never cowered from anyone but this man was scary, alright?

"You can call me by my name, ya know," she rolled her eyes. She must have had a death wish tonight with all the sass she was giving.

"Whatever..." he trailed off. Yachiru whispered something in his ear. "Seina," he added obviously having forgotten the name given to him already.

Raiko sighed. She was so annoyed with having to use her friends name. It was confusing as hell and annoying to have people call her anything but her actual name.

"Doesn't fit you," the man suddenly said making the woman look up again with a questioning look. "The name. It sounds like it's for a... a girly girl," he waved his hands as if emphasizing 'girly'.

"You don't think I'm a girly girl?" She narrowed her eyes slightly, putting her hand on her hip and flipping her hair over her shoulder sarcastically. "I'm not, thank you for noticing. If it's that weird you can call me Raiko," she crossed her arms, sighing softly.

"Raiko? How did you ever get that from Seina?" Kenpachi asked without thinking.

"Uh..." Raiko thought for a moment, not sure how to lie herself out of this one. She decided to go with something simple. "It's... a long story. From when I was a kid," she lied quickly, looking away awkwardly.

Kenpachi looked over the woman not bothering to hide the fact that he was checking her out. Once he felt satisfied with looking over every feature, he began walking.

Raiko sneered at the crudness of the other although... she didn't totally mind. The great Captain Zaraki thought she was hot? That was a plus in her books. Maybe he'd be ok with just sex. She didn't see any reason why he wouldn't. He was known for not caring about anything but pleasure. Pleasure in fighting. Pleasure in drinking. Pleasure in sex.

"Come on, RaiRai," Yachiru called back to the woman with a wide smile. She made a mental note to work on the nickname.

Raiko looked at the girl, raising an eyebrow curiously. "What?"

"You gotta get to know Kenny. Kenny likes you so come on," the small pink haired girl smiled.

"Be quiet, Yachiru," Kenpachi grunted, walking lazily towards, where he hoped, was the 11th division. "Woman," he looked back at her as if waiting for her to follow.

She wasn't sure why she gave in. Maybe it was just out of fear, but she found her feet moving towards the giant. She followed, grumbling to herself and internally cursing her luck. At least if she was actually paired with him she might feel better but this brute of a man actually requested her after running into her and seeing her curse.

This was going to be fun.

"Hey, little lady. You lost?" A bald man propping his zanpakuto on his shoulder asked the red head who had just come running around the corner. She seemed frantic, scared even. She was so focused on running she had ran right into him.

"Little? I'm the same height as-! That's not the point. Let me through," Raiko tried to run around the man, hoping Captain Zaraki hadn't noticed that she slipped away yet.

Ikkaku held out an arm and kept the woman in front of him. "Just wait a minute. Why are you here?" He asked, raising an eyebrow in question. There were no women in the 11th division besides the lieutenant. Maybe she was someone's match? If so why was she running away from the division?

"Right now? I'm here to leave," she sneered before trying to run past him again. "Come on! He's gonna kill me, the damn bastard!" She grunted annoyed when the man didn't let up.

"Who?" He was confused by her statement. He knew everyone thought of squad 11 as a bunch of murders and thugs (which he didn't mind or disagree with) but if she was a match, he highly doubted someone from his squad was out to kill her. She wasn't that ugly either so she seemed like a catch to him.

"Zaraki! Who else? Crazy bastard pickin' me n' making me stuck with him as a match just so he can kill me later," she grumbled more to herself than to the 3rd seat who seemed at a loss for words.

Kenapachi came around the corner and glared at the woman who had ran from him not 5 minutes before. "Woman," he grunted before glancing at Ikkaku.

"You switched? What about the other girl? She seemed so... talkitive," Ikkaku cackled teasingly to his captain. He slowly became serious as things settled in. "Wait... you were serious? You're with the Captain now?" He pointed at the latge man as he looked at the woman who was frozen in terror.

Raiko slowly turned to look at the man. "Heh... yea, about that... I change my mind. I really don't even want to do this match maker thing. Romance is dumb. I'll just go tell them I forfeit or something," she rambled, turning to leave again and hopefully lose her new match.

Unfortunatlly, a large hand grabbed the back of her shihakusho and began dragging her back to the captain office leaving Ikkaku to stand alone, dumbfounded.

"Wow... The Captain's seriously interested in this one."

"Look, I'm sorry for cursing at you earlier but it's nothing to kill me over so can't you just let me get another match and live my life," Raiko rushed through her words, looking anywhere but at the captain in front of her.

Yachiru had left for god knows what reason but it made Raiko afraid. Kenpachi probably sent her away so she didn't have to see him kill her. Although, that didn't make much sense since Yachiru was actually pretty powerful and had seen him kill lots of people...

That wasn't the point. Raiko was just hoping to convince him not to kill her while she still had some dignity. Begging was her last resort.

"Are you crazy?" Raiko looked up in surprise by the gruff words. "I ain't gonna kill you... unless you keep acting up," Kenpachi mutteres the last part with an annoyed glance to the side. "I like a girl who ain't frilly and fragile. Who'll curse even at me," he smirked, knowing that took guts.

"What?" Raiko looked at the man like he was crazy. Was he actually saying he was interested in her? Was this supposed to be him flirting or something?

"Just quit your whinin'. It's annoying. You ain't switchin' now. I ain't a fan of the match maker either and you better not think I'm into the romance shit 'cause I ain't," he grunted. "But ya do interest me and I'd rather waste my time on a girl who ain't afraid of me then some pansy."

"Who said I wasn't afraid?" She muttered to herself, sighing exhaustedly. "Whatever. I guess that's fine," she grumbled, crossing her arms with a 'huff' and looking away. If he wasn't going to press on romance, she supposed she could deal with it. Besides, if she was lucky, and he really was interested, she might get to see if he lived up to rumors in the bedroom.

As you can see this is basically just Raiko and Kenpachi starting out together. Please tell me if I'm not getting his personality right. I'm trying my best because, again, this is my first time writing him. So yea, hopefully that was some good humor for you guys and will make you eager for more.

Please Review. It gives me such good motivation and like I said before, if you have any request feel free to say so in a review because I can try and work some stuff in. Also follow/favourite for me and keep an eye out for the next chapter ^-^
