"Sometimes you put walls up not to keep people out, but to see who cares enough to break them down."
Me: Ok I'm gonna start the individual character's chapters of how they met Keiko and how she helped them and what not. Enjoy.
When you think about death isn't exactly in one's to do list. It was always a concept that never crossed Kaito's mind when he was alive. All he remembered was a stinging pain where his heart was and then nothing. He remembered waking up and seeing a man clad in a shinigami robe with the hilt of his sword pressed to Kaito's forehead.
When Kaito next awoke he was laying on a dusty street. He sat up and looked around. There were broken down houses and people in traditional style kimono's walking around. Kaito stood up and in the first 100 hundred years he simply wandered around. He never got the concept "Hey I'm dead".
It was year 174 and Kaito was sitting under a dead tree. A group of men in shinigami robes walked up to him.
"Kaito Dulagar?" one of them asked.
Kaito snapped his book shut and stood up.
"What?" he asked in a cold tone.
"We have sensed that you have spiritual energy and have come to take you to the Soul Reaper Academy" the man said.
Kaito sighed and stretched.
"I have no intentions of being a soul reaper and going your little society" Kaito said.
"You really don't have a choice" the man said and drew his zanpackto.
Kaito moved in a blink of an eye and smashed his fist into the man's face. The other men pulled forth their zanpackto's. Kaito knew he was screwed. A man lashed out at Kaito. It all seemed to slow down. The zanpackto came closer and closer. Then another zanpackto came out of no where and collided with the oncoming zanpackto. A woman appeared in front of Kaito with her zanpackto blocking the other zanpackto. She had short white hair the front being longer then the back and bright red eyes. She wore a dark red short kimono with gold flowers designed on the right shoulder and on the black obi around her waist. She wore tabi shoes with dark red leg warmers reaching up past her knee.
"Do you want to live?" she asked
Kaito without even knowing it nodded.
"Good". She said.
She pushed the man back and lifted her zanpackto up above her head. She brought the blade down with increased speed and smashed it into the ground causing a shockwave that sent the men flying backwards. The woman turned to Kaito and sheathed her blade.
"What's your name?" she asked.
"Kaito Dulagar" he answered.
"My name is Keiko Yamasaki, I'm starting a group, would you like to be my first member?" she asked her eyes looking at him with a softness that Kaito had not seen in a long time.
Kaito nodded. Keiko smiled and held out her hand. Kaito took it.
"Again Kaito-kun" Keiko said.
Kaito clutched his side with his free hand, his zanpackto in the other. He had been training with Keiko for over 150 years now. He so far had managed to unlock his zanpackto and shikai form. Keiko was constantly pushing him. It wasn't like he was resenting it, he wanted to get pushed. He wanted to get stronger. In the last 150 years they had recruited Sato Hideyoshi, Isamu Hotako, and Riku Takashi.
"Kaito-kun push yourself you can do it" Keiko said.
Kaito raised Hone no hīrā up and again attacked Keiko. Keiko easily moved out of the way of each move. Keiko hadn't even drawn her zanpackto yet. Keiko appeared in front of Kaito and punched him in the stomach. Kaito kneeled over and clutched his stomach.
"You must think of something that can activate your Bankai, sometimes it's an emotion that can do it" Keiko said.
Kaito stood back up and shut his eyes. What emotion would trigger his Bankai? What couldn't he afford to lose? His eyes snapped open. The one thing he couldn't lose! That was it! There was only one person he couldn't bear to lose and she was standing in front of him. Reiatsu built up around him.
"BAN...KAI!" Kaito yelled.
Reiatsu burst from his being and covered his zanpackto.
"Suraishingu Hone no hīrā" (Slicing Bone Healer) Kaito said and lifted his zanpackto. The urumi had sharper blades and had lengthened.
Keiko looked positively thrilled.
"Good job Kaito-kun!" Keiko said and clapped her hands together.
Kaito looked at his zanpackto in awe. Then he pumped his fist into the air. He had finally mastered Bankai! Keiko came over to him and gave him a playful punch in the arm.
"I'm proud of you Kaito-kun" she said.
"Thank you Keiko-Chan" he answered and deactivated his Bankai.
Kaito sat next to Keiko at the meeting. The rest of the Band of Seven had assembled. Kaito sat at Keiko's left side while Riku sat her right.
"I have a deep hatred for the Soul Society as you all very well know, I'm not asking for you to share this hatred but when the time comes I want you to understand that I choose to fight against them, I will not join sides for I am my own side, if you choose to leave me that is your choice" Keiko said.
Kaito instantly slammed his fist on the table.
"I would never leave you Keiko-Chan, I may not share your hatred for the Soul Society but you saved me and I will follow you to the death" he said.
Keiko's eyes filled with happiness.
"Thank you Kaito, your words mean the world to me". She said.
"Hey don't expect me to leave I still have to get stronger so I can kick your ass Keiko-Sempai" Nobu said with his usual smirk.
"I said I would follow Keiko-Sama till the death and that's what I'll do" Riku said with a slight bow.
"I'm with you all the way Keiko" Sato said.
"Same here!" Alena yelled.
"I to am here to fight with you" Isamu said.
Kaito looked at Keiko and saw a happiness in her eyes that was rarely shown. Kaito placed his hand on Keiko's shoulder. Kaito knew he might seem like an ass at times and seem stuck up but he knew deep down he was as loyal as they came. His long brown hair fell down over his shoulder and Keiko looked up into Kaito's chocolate brown eyes. She smiled. A smile that she only would show to the Band of Seven.
