"What's the Pokey-Poke curse?" Mika asked Renji. Both couldn't stop poking each other.
"It's when you start poking someone, and you can't stop no matter how much you want it to stop." He explained.
"…You call that a curse?" She asked, not believing in the curse.
"DON'T DISS THE CURSE!!!"
"…sure whatever…"
"MOOSE!!!" Tori yelled out, waking up. This surprised Hitsugaya.
"…moose?"
"Huh? Oh hiya Snowflake!!!" She shouted waving. Somehow the room was clean again. "Ooh!!! Shiny!!" Tori pointed at the table that was shiny and looked brand new.
"Yeah…where's Matsumoto?" he asked.
"Oh, she and everybody else thought you died so she's probably arranging your funeral or something."
"WHAT?!" he yelled in shock, he left immediately. Random shouts of zombies and the dead coming back to life were heard throughout. One idiot even shouted out 'GHOST!!!'
Mika and Renji were getting bored of poking each other, but like the curse said, they couldn't stop. So they did something nobody thought they would do—sing. They started singing the 'Happy Song' (search it up on Youtube if you don't know what that is).
"I'm so happy cuz there's only one of me…" Rina and Byakuya could hear singing in the distance, they rushed over. "…SCREW YOU!!" They concluded pointing at a direction.
"Excuse me?" The two looked back, finding out that they were pointing at them (still poking each other)
"T-TA—TAICHOU!!!"
"HIYA RINA!!"
"I'll just pretend I didn't hear that." Byakuya said.
"WE DIDN'T MEAN IT! HONEST!!"
"Why are you poking each other?" Rina asked curiously.
"It's the curse…"
"…curse?"
"The POKEY-POKE CURSE!!!" Once again the sound of doom rang out, thunder boomed, and lightning flashed.
"How'd you do that? I could only get the doom sound out!" Mika asked amazed at Renji's abilities.
"What?" He was completely oblivious of the sound affects. The two were still poking each other, it was quite ridiculous.
"…THE CURSE GOT YOU??!!!" Rina asked, quite shocked.
"Yeah…"
"YOU TWO BETTER GO TO 4TH DIVISION NOW!! UNOHANA HAS DEALT WITH THIS BEFORE!!" Rina advised the two, who were wide-eyed.
"She has?"
"Yeah…remember I started to poke Tori?"
"…Oh yeah…" The two were rushed to get rid of the curse.
"I want watermelon!!" Tori whined.
"So do I!" Hitsugaya whined back.
"You whined? AWESOME!!" Tori cheered. Hitsugaya blinked and thought to himself 'thank goodness Matsumoto isn't here' He was tired, he had run all the way to first division using only shunpo, to prove that he was indeed alive. And then he had to run all the way back to do all the work that was due. "SNOWFLAKE? HELLO ANYBODY IN THERE?!" Hitsugaya had spaced out for a moment, Tori was quite worried. She knocked on his head quite hard to see if he would come back.
"OW!!!"
"Whoopsie…hehe…"
"WHOOPSIE?!"
"YOU DON'T NEED TO GET ALL WORKED UP—WATERMELON!!!!!" Tori pointed, both looked and saw a big pile of watermelons. They tackled the pile eating to their hearts content. Matsumoto walked in and saw the 2 devouring all the watermelons. 'KAWAII!!!' She thought to herself.
4th Division was in a major panic, another case of the Pokey-Poke had occurred.
"WAH!!! MY FINGER'S HURTING!!" Mika cried out.
"…WHAT SHE SAID!!!" Renji cried out.
"Hold on!! Think happy thoughts!" Unohana advised. Renji thought of taiyaki, his favorite food. Mika thought about cookies, and a moose and a piggy, and duckies!! They soon realized they had stopped poking each other.
"ARIGATOU GOZAIMASU, UNOHANA-TAICHOU!!" Renji thanked her gratefully.
"WHEEE!!! POINTY DOESN'T HURT ANYMORE!!" Mika yelled out.
"… 'Pointy'? I'm not even gonna ask!"
"Okay, it's over!" Multiple cheers and sighs of relief could be heard throughout the division.
"I'M HUNGRY!!" Mika whined.
"SAME HERE!" Renji added.
"Oh no!!" Unohana gasped.
"WHAT?!"
"YOU TWO GOT…"
"WHAT?!" they asked frantically, now freaking out thinking that they had another curse of some sort.
"…TO HAVE LUNCH RIGHT NOW!!! ITS 12 NOON!!" She told them.
"LUNCH!!! WOOHOO!!" Mika yelled out in delight, running down people as she went back home.
"What a nice reaction! Abarai-kun? Aren't you going to have a reaction like hers?"
"…No way in hell!"
"Hey! No cussing in this division!!" Isane scolded.
---
Mika ran past many people mowing them down. She came across some walls but ran right through them. She really wanted lunch—it included ramen and Pocky. When she reached the door, pfft who cares about opening the door when you're really hungry! She knocked the door and went straight to the kitchen. Renji had followed her because he realized that she had left her zanpakutou behind at the hospital.
"Uh…I'm pretty sure you need this" He said handing over the weapon over to Mika.
"Want ramen?" she asked.
"Uh…okay…"
Tori came in shortly with a wagon full of watermelons.
"RAMEN!!!" she yelled out and raided the fridge. Hitsugaya was following her because of all the watermelon she had with her. Rina and Byakuya arrived later to see how much damage had happened, and the fact that Byakuya was looking for Renji. Aside from the door being smashed down and having 3 uninvited guests, everything was fine.
"Uh…who's gonna pay for the door?" Nobody answered.
"Okay, then I guess with the door damage and the walls and doors and other places…the total amount for the bill for 13th Division is…about 700, 000 yen. ($7000 approx.)
(Ukitake sneezed.)
"700, 000 yen?!" Tori asked wide-eyed.
"Yup."
"Uki-kun isn't gonna like it…" Mika was right; Ukitake was at the doorway.
"I'm pretty sure I heard something about 700, 000 yen…"
"Yeah, hope you guys can cover it!" Renji said slurping up noodles.
"He's talking about the bill you guys are going to have to pay senpai." Byakuya explained. Ukitake almost died, from the news.
"How am I going to get 700, 000 yen?!"
"You're a captain; don't you guys get paid a lot?" Renji asked him, and Byakuya as well as Hitsugaya.
"Yeah, how else do you think I can get the watermelons?" The 10th Division captain asked.
"Well, problem solved, now all of you out! Have to get this stupid door fixed!" The captains and Renji were kicked out. Ukitake had to get pushed out by Renji.
"Hey look a butterfly!"
"OH MOTHERF—"
"YOU CAN'T SAY THAT HERE! THIS IS A 'T' RATED STORY NOT 'M'!!!"
"WHO CARES! TEENS STILL SAY THAT!!"
A hell butterfly had just flown in to send them on a mission. The butterfly named 'Kochou' by Tori and Mika had to wait a while before the message was sent out. Rina was busy repairing the door, Tori and Mika were playing a game of Torture Tag, so he was quite lonely. Kochou got quite bored and decided to let them know of his existence. He landed on Tori's nose.
"KKKKKKYYYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAA BUTTTEEEEERRRRRFFFFFLLLLYYY!!!!" She screamed.
She ran around, couldn't see where she was going then ran into Mika, who was pushed forward, which knocked Rina over. Unfortunately the door was open, so all 3 girls flew out of their little apartment. They stopped in mid-air, gravity took control and they plunged.
" AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" They didn't hit the ground at first. They 'bounced' off a tree then landed in a bush. Poor little Kochou was terrified and fluttered off back to 1st Division.
"MY MUFFIN!!!" Mika yelled out.
"MY SWORD!" Rina's zanpakutou came flying down landing 5 inches away from Tori's head.
"MY GOD! I NEVER KNEW THERE WAS A TREE OR BUSH HERE!" Tori exclaimed.
"By the way, where did Kochou go?" Mika wondered.
"Oh well!"
"REN-REN!!!" Mika whined.
"…WHAT?!" He asked impatiently.
"I want a moosie!!"
"…"
"No I want mooses!!"
"Mooses isn't a word Mika…"
"Yes it is!! It's plural for moose!"
"No its moosi" Rikichi corrected.
"That's not a word either" Byakuya said.
"Pisha!! Its meese!!"
"You want me to get you meese?" Renji asked her using the term that Mika had made up on the spot.
"YES!!!"
"Why don't you ask Rina?" He asked boredly.
"CUZ, SHE'S GETTING ME DUCKIES!!! AND TORI'S GETTING ME PIGGIES!!"
"Really?" he asked not believing a single word.
"Actually they are!" He stared at her strangely.
"I don't think Yamamoto-soutaichou would approve of animals living in a household with you." He said carefully, not wanting to upset Mika.
"Psh! He's old, he'll get over it!" Byakuya looked up at her rudeness. Renji looked like that either one of them was going to die from Byakuya.
"Mika, you should leave…now!" Mika left grumbling about how people were so inconsiderate of others.
---
"Rina!!! Ren-Ren won't get me a moosie!!"
"Ask Byakuya!!" Tori advised her.
"Are you kidding? Like he would get me something!!" Mika replied.
"Get Rina to ask Byakuya then!" Tori said.
"Oh yeah…" both girls had an evil look on their faces and approached Rina. They both put on 'the face'
"Oh…" she groaned. She didn't have any choice but to go in there and demand that he give her friend a moose.
----
"Kuchiki-taichou!!" He didn't look up but acknowledged her presence.
"What is it?"
"My friend is complaining that your vice-captain is being very inconsiderate, rude, mean, and…what was that last part?" Rina asked the doorway where Tori and Mika were hiding.
"An ass!!"
"What they said!"
"What do you want me to do about it?" he asked still not looking up
"Either YOU get her a moose—"
"—MEESE!!"
"...Whatever! Or get your lieutenant to!"
He looked up at her, and gave her a look that said 'where do you expect me to get a moose?' The girls peered inside, excited that Byakuya was thinking of getting a moo—meese for Mika.
'God has 5 minutes passed yet?!' Rina thought in her mind. The deal was to stay in front of Byakuya for 5 minutes requesting him to get a moose. He sighed, and leaned back in his chair in utter defeat.
"I'll…get Renji to get 'meese' for your friend…" he sighed. Mika gave a loud 'WOOT!!' which rang out through Seireitei.
"How considerate of you!" Rina smiled and left quickly. Renji walked in looking back at the retreating figures known throughout Seireitei as The 3 Musketeers.
"Hey I just saw Mika, Tori, and Rina leave here, what'd they do?" he asked.
"Renji…"
"Yeah?"
"You're getting meese for Mika."
"WHAT?! WHY DO I—" Byakuya shot him a look. "…ok…" 'Where the hell am I gonna get a moose?' He wondered.
---
"Hey, Hinamori! You know where I can get meese?"
"Meese?" She asked him with a look of confusion.
"Ya know, moose?" He reworded feeling embarassed about the fact that he was going around to every division he could and ask people where he could find the animal.
"OH! Um…no but I think Kira might or Hisagi-senpai" Renji went to 3rd Division to ask his friend Kira, if he knew. He didn't so Renji had to walk all the way to 9th Division. Hisagi suggested Rukongai was a good place to start. Rukongai was a VERY big place, so it took a long time to find a moose. It took him 5 days and nights to explore but nothing.
"I know where to find moose!" Yachiru exclaimed to Renji, hearing upon his little 'adventure'.
"You do?"
"Yeah just go to…"
