Part 2!!! Well the beginning to it, as promised in the last, last chapter, a little yaoi thing happens in it, its not totally major that you would die or have a heart attack or anything--just a little joke. Since I am not a yaoi fan, don't criticize too hard on it ok? Well its a joke for ByakuXRen only this pairing because I find that its one of the most popular pairings out there. Well enjoy!

"PLEASE!!!" The 3 girls begged to Yamamoto for him to allow them to go to Hueco Mundo.

"NO!!" He answered for the 104th time.

"Aww… why not?" Tori asked him.

"Because you'll die down there, and we haven't quite explored all of Hueco Mundo yet" Yamamoto answered.

"What's your point?" Mika asked. Yamamoto pretended he never heard her.

"Fine if you won't let us go then I guess Rina's gonna have to burn down your division again!" Tori threatened. His eyes snapped open

"You wouldn't!"

"Oh yes I would!" Rina said drawing her zanpakutou.

"Remember what happened last time you wanted a demonstration which caused her to be banned from this place?" Mika reminded him.

.:Flashback:.

1st Division was glowing a bright orange from the flames from Hanabi.

"What? You wanted a demonstration!!" Rina told him not aware at the fact that his division had to be redone meaning a lot more money had to be used. "You just said 'release your zanpakutou' because you were so excited that there was another fire-type zanpakutou; so I did!" She went on.

"Don't you think you could've restrained from releasing that fire-ball?" He asked her irritated.

"Maybe…"

.:Flashback:.

"It looks like I have no choice, but I don't like what I'm gonna say…you guys can go to Hueco Mundo…" He muttered in defeat.

"Don't worry we'll send ya something!" Rina said walking out of the door with her zanpakutou sheathed.

"Ya, it's about time you started collecting spoons!" Tori said to him as she walked out. Mika walked out with Tori saying something about getting a hollow plushy for the old man.

"I feel that I am going to regret what I just said" He muttered to himself.

"We're going to Hueco Land!!" Mika cheered.

"YUP!! Wonder if they have cotton candy down there…" Tori wondered.

"Ya know, I think I should apologize to Ren-Ren before leaving" Mika thought out loud.

"Oh right, for accidentally breaking his arm in that game of Torture Tag?" Rina asked as Mika nodded.

"Ok, see ya later!" Mika said that leapt off.

"Seriously, she brings Torture Tag to a whole new level" Tori remarked. "I'm gonna see Snowflake now, later!" Tori said then leapt off into a different direction.

"I wonder…what'll happen if I say…" Mika thought to herself grinning evilly.

"Hey Ren-Ren!" She called out to him who shielded his arm from her.

"What do you want?" He asked her suspiciously.

"Can't I say hi to my favorite red-headed octopus?" She asked him innocently.

"You're up to something I know it!" He said back to her. As the two walked back and forth in the division, Renji just had to know what she was plotting. "You're plotting something aren't you?" He asked her.

"No…what ever gave you that idea?" she asked him. He led her to the big doors of his division.

"Listen, I have a ton of work to do, so why don't you go play with your moose?" He offered.

"Oh yeah…well there's something I wanna say to you before I leave"

'I knew it!' Renji thought to himself, ready for anything she threw at him.

"I love you—" SLAM!! Renji slammed the door on Mika right as those 3 little words came out.

"TAICHOU!!" He yelled in shock and ran off to their office.

"Ohh…my nose!!" Mika groaned clutching her slightly bruised nose as she walked away. 'But that expression was priceless!' she thought to herself.

Mika walked back towards her apartment to get her moose for 4th Division to look after while she was gone.

---

"TAICHOU!! YOU WON'T BELIEVE WHAT JUST HAPPENED!!" He yelled at Byakuya who didn't care about whatever his problem was. "MIKA…SHE…SHE…"

"She's going to Hueco Mundo with her two other friends, I know. I'm not happy about it either." He said suddenly not looking up at him.

"Not that, Mika…wait, WHAT?!" Renji had a look of horror on his face and dashed out of the division in search of Mika. "Dammit!! Why did she have to tell me those 3 little words instead of telling me that she was going to Hueco Mundo?" He asked to himself when he couldn't find her at all.

---

"Hiya!! Whoa, Mika what happened to you?" Tori asked her when she returned home. Mika was applying ice to her nose.

"Well I said those 3 little words to Renji to see his reaction and then he slammed the door on me!! My nose was injured as you can see" She explained.

"You said those 3 little words to him?" Tori asked, Rina looked up, Mika nodded.

"I hope he doesn't take it too seriously" Mika said to herself.

---

Early morning, Renji was pacing back and forth in the office thinking of what he should've said back to her.

"…Mika…I…no…uh…oh whatever!! I'll just go with 'I love you'!" He decided, he stopped immediately and looked up.

He came face to face with Byakuya. Byakuya had unfortunately come in at the wrong time, as he walked in as Renji said 'I love you' in his direction.

"Uh…t-taichou!! I didn't mean it!! Not to you anyways!!" Renji stuttered clearly embarrassed at what he had just said. "Yeah seriously, besides I don't love you at all!! Yeah in fact, I hate you. You're the worst person I've ever met in fact I'd rather kick my own ass then be with you—NO THAT CAME OUT WRONG!!" Renji quickly said as he realized what he had just said to his shocked superior. "…I don't love you, nor do I hate you…damn that came out wrong again!!" Renji stuttered unable to say what he had meant.

"What are you trying to say?" Byakuya asked appalled at his vice-captain's words of hate and affection.

"Um…I like you?" Byakuya's eyes nearly popped out of his head. "NO THAT CAME OUT WRONG TOO!!" Renji cried out as he ran out of the division before any other words escaped from his mouth. Byakuya staggered over to his desk, he didn't expect his day to start out like that.

Renji dashed out in search of Mika, he met up with Rina on the way.

"Uh Rina, Byakuya needs to see you pronto!" He said to her quickly then left.

"Byakuya needs to see me? Okay…" She said then departed to 6th Division.

"Dammit Mika where are you?" He cursed searching for her. It wasn't like her to be missing from his sight for the whole day—well it was just morning so Renji was basically getting worked up for no reason. He finally found her at 4th Division with her moose.

"MIKA!!" he called out to her. "Uh…how are you doing?" He asked her.

"Um…fine, my nose is a bit bruised when you slammed the door on my face though…"

"Oh…hehe…sorry 'bout that…" he apologized, they stood in silence.

"Did you need to talk to me?" Mika asked him.

"Um… well actually…"

"So let me get this straight, you happened to walk in when Renji said 'I love you'; then he said that he hated you, and then he said 'I like you'." Byakuya nodded at every point Rina had noted who was lying on the couch.

"Aww…" Rina cooed which earned her a glare.

"It's not funny; I nearly had a heart attack!" He snapped.

"Sorry, it's just, that's the first time I've heard anything like that happen" She apologized. He put his head down on his arms relaxing so that he wouldn't die suddenly. The door suddenly slammed open.

"Taichou!! I need you!!" Renji cried out.

"What?" Byakuya asked in horror.

"Renji!!" Rina cried out.

"OH NOT AGAIN!! THAT CAME OUT WRONG HONEST!!! RINA, BYAKUYA'S YOURS I DON'T LOVE HIM AT ALL IN ANY WAY!!" Renji shouted out when he saw the 2 stunned people before him.

"Um…can you NOT yell next time?!" Rina asked him.

"Oh dammit!!" Renji clasped his hand to his mouth, peered outside hoping nobody had heard what he had blurted out.

"By the way…you need Byakuya?" Rina asked him. "And he's mine?" She added on with a look on confusion.

"No I didn't mean it like that!! I just need advice…" Renji said sheepishly. Byakuya sighed in relief. "And aren't you guys dating?" Renji asked her. Both people just shot a glare at him to shut him up.

"Thanks Renji!"

"Huh?"

"You just gave me an idea for the Shinigami Women's Association newspaper" She answered writing stuff down on a pad of paper.

"What?"

"There's a newspaper?"

"YUP!" she answered cheerfully.

"Uh…what was the idea I gave you—actually what's the headline?" Renji asked suspiciously.

"RENJI CONFESSES TO BYAKUYA" She answered, visualizing the headlines on the newspaper - stars danced in her eyes at the thought of it.

"What?!" Renji yelled in horror, he could not let that little confusion of words out in public.

"I forbid you to put that in the paper!!" Byakuya said to her.

"Well, I have to have a topic besides, if you don't like it go talk to Yachiru; she's our president ya know" Rina pointed out which caused Renji to shudder.

Renji was once part of 11th Division so he had served under Yachiru before. Oh the many tea parties Yachiru had forced their division to go through with.

"Does it have to be that?" Renji moped.

"You're right…" Rina said erasing the headline; Renji sighed in relief. "It's not catchy enough is it?" She asked them, they immediately snapped their heads towards her. Byakuya grabbed the pad of paper and her pencil and threw it out the window not before shredding it with Senbonzakura. "Ok, then what do you suppose I write down?" She asked them.

"Uh…something about…something" Renji thought out.

"I write about 'something'?" She asked confused.

"Yeah…something like that…"

"Dammit!! Renji, how long am I supposed to wait?" Mika thought, Renji had told her to wait at 4th Division until he had gotten back from who knows where.

"What did you need advice with Renji?" Byakuya asked him.

"Well, it's kinda complicated…"

"What is it?" Rina asked.

"Well…it's…"

"Go on…"

"It's…"

"OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!! WHAT IS IT?!" Rina asked impatiently.

"Ok fine, it's love" Renji said.

"Love? That's it?" Rina asked.

"Yeah, what do you mean 'that's it'?" He asked her.

"What part of love do you need advice with?" Byakuya asked interrupting their argument.

"Well, what do you say when the other person has already said those 3 little words?" He asked him.

"I'm guessing Mika said it first—"

"She did" Rina interrupted.

"Ok then, first what did you do when she said it?" He asked.

"I slammed the door on her face!" He said quite proudly. Byakuya slapped his forehead, Rina groaned disappointed at Renji.

"What? Is that bad?" He asked.

"Yes it is. Slamming the door on her face is not a good reaction at all. You're supposed to say you love her back!" He answered.

"Ohh…well at least she's not mad!" He said optimistically. "Oh crap!! I forgot about her!!" He exclaimed before running out.

"He's gonna fail in love, I know it." Byakuya said seeing his lieutenant rush out.

"Well, it's his first time, you can't blame him" Rina said back.

"I'm not going to let you go to Hueco Mundo" Byakuya said suddenly.

"I told you, it's what I want to do—sorry but you don't have any say in it." She sighed. "Besides, it's not like you to get all worried about what I'm going to do" She pointed out.

"Well I'm only worried because I love you" He said back to her.

"Aww…how cute—not, ok seriously why?" She asked him unconvinced.

"I'm serious, I love you" He repeated.

"…I need an aspirin!" She gasped leaning her head on the wall. He walked over to her and pulled her into an embrace from behind. "You're serious aren't you?" She asked him. He nodded. "I love you too" She said back to him. "But that doesn't change my mind of going to Hueco Mundo" She added on.

"Damn" He muttered.

"I'm so sorry!!! I totally forgot!!" Renji apologized the 189th time, bowing down so low his head went right through the floor.

"Uh…ok?" Mika wasn't sure how to react at all, this had never happened before to her.

"Ok, to make a long story short" Renji said quickly, standing up and looked at her in the eyes.

"I love you!" He said quickly and prepared for some kind of physical contact from her (punch, kick, flick etc.). Instead of some kind of violence she stood there quite dazed.

"Um…I'm flattered" She said blushing slightly.

"Um…what's that supposed to mean?" He asked thinking he had just acted like a fool.

"Well when I said those 3 words, I only wanted to see your reaction—I didn't think it would go that far!" She explained.

"So you're saying that I had a mega yaoi moment with taichou and looked like an idiot for no reason?" He asked.

"I guess…" She answered. Renji slapped himself in the forehead, Mika gave a nervous laugh. "Oh, who am I kidding? I love you too!!" She said suddenly then glomped him. Renji had let his guard down so he was pushed back to the post behind him. He didn't protest in any way though, and let the embrace continue.

"YES!"

"NO!"

"YES!"

"NO!"

"YES!"

Well Tori and Hitsugaya were having a mini argument about the same topic as the other two—Hueco Mundo.

"It's too dangerous down there!! And no offense I don't think a 4th, 5th, and 6th seater can survive in Hueco Mundo for 5 minutes!!" Hitsugaya said to her.

"Well so what?! It's not like we're gonna waltz right in and say 'Hi, I'm a shinigami pleased to meet you! And you are?'"

"I hope you guys don't" Hitsugaya said.

"Oh come on!! This is the best thing that has happened to us!!" She whined.

"Going to hell is the best thing that has ever happened to you?" He asked.

"NO!! Going to 'Hueco Land' is!!" She answered.

"No, I won't let you!!" He shouted at her.

"Oh and why not?" She asked ready to deflect any answer he gave her.

"Because I love you!" He blurted out. Okay, she was ready to deflect any answer, except that one.

"Um…thank you?" That shout-out was quite random and she wasn't expecting that. He pulled her immediately into an embrace.

"Please, don't do anything stupid down there" He pleaded, his words full of worry.

"…Don't worry, I won't…at least I'll try not to" She answered hugging him back.

It seemed like a very short time until they noticed the sun had begun to set. All 3 had left to their homes.

"You won't believe what just happened today" Tori started.

"Funny, I was gonna say the same thing." Mika said back to her.

"Why do I get the feeling its all about the same thing?" Rina asked herself. "Okay, count on 3 we tell…1…2…3!"

"They confessed!!" They all said at once.

"I knew it" Rina said collapsing on the couch.

"Let's just hope nobody else has found out, the last thing we want is a ton of gossip" Mika said sitting on the seat next to Rina.

"Yeah, I'd die; by the way, did you find a topic for the Women's Association paper?" Tori asked Rina.

"Well I sorta had one…" She started.

"What was it? You know Yachiru, she'll take anything" Mika said to her.

"Yeah, well it was quite awkward, Mika did Renji tell you that he had a yaoi moment with Byakuya?"

"WHAT?!" Tori yelled out in amazement.

"Oh yeah…"

"Well it was quite strange and it was funny too, so basically it was like 'Renji Confesses to Byakuya', but Renji protested and Byakuya destroyed the idea--literally, so we're back to square one." Rina concluded.

"Can it be triangle one?" Tori asked.

"What?" Rina asked her.

"You know, 'back to square one', 'back to triangle one'" Tori explained.

"Sure…" Mika answered.

The sun rose quickly as it had set; the 3 were ready to depart.

"Ok, Camera--CHECK! Pocky--CHECK! Marshmallows--CHECK! Permanent Markers--CHECK! Rechargeable Batteries--CHECK! Battery Charger Thingamajiggy--CHECK! Manga--CHECK! MP3 player loaded with 1000 songs or more--CHECK! Fluffeh Pilloz--CHECK! Ok, we're all set!! " Mika declared rolling up the list into a scroll-like figure.

"Elliott and Moosie are with 4th Division, Kiyone and Sentarou are taking over our positions…everything should be fine!" Tori double-checked any other things.

"They better have cable over there!" Rina said suddenly which caused her friends to look at her strangely.

"What? It's Friday—Friday nights are my anime night!" She explained. The 3 left their house to the gate where they would depart. All of 13th Division had showed up, Byakuya and Renji, Hitsugaya as well as others.

"You guys are confident in this right?" Ukitake asked them, they nodded.

"Don't worry we'll be back in a week!" Tori said to them.

"We'll get you souvenirs don't worry!!" Mika said to him patting him on the head like he was a little child.

"You guys are ready" Ukitake mumbled. The gate opened and the 3 stepped into it. Going into Hueco Mundo was a lot different than going to Earth. You would enter this strange tunnel like place, only you had to stabilize your reiatsu to make it easy to travel—kinda like surfing. They landed at a sandy deserted area.

"Wow, it's so barren" Mika remarked. "…Ok I'm bored!"

"We can't go into that building yet!" Tori said suddenly.

"Why?" Rina asked.

"We need…"

"Yeah…"

"…To make a sand castle!!" She concluded.

"Ok…why not?"

It took them 45 minutes to create their sand castle which towered the building they were about to enter when suddenly…

"RRAAWWRRR!!"

"'RRAAWWRRR!!'?"

The 3 repeated and looked around. Suddenly a mass amount of sand jumped out at them. In front of them was a sand monster-golem thing.

"Oh…hi?" The monster stomped at them; luckily they were able to dodge.

"LEEEROY!!!" Tori shouted throwing a handful of sand at it. Since sand doesn't clump together, the sand didn't hit the sand monster at all let alone hurt it.

"Well, that's one plan down" Tori commented dodging a fist.

"Mika use Bakufu!" Rina told her, Mika immediately shot out a ray of water at the monster causing its movements to slow down. Gradually the sand got heavier and heavier the sand monster couldn't move it collapsed in a heap virtually paralyzed.

"Ok, I guess we can go in now" Tori said then she and her friends walked right in unaware of the dangers that lurked ahead.
