Chapter 3: The Lieutenant That Achieved Bankai
Today was the day for the second battle. Everybody was up extra early. Everyone of the Gotei 13 already gathered at the arena ready to watch.
The two teams had already gotten to the arena ready to draw. Almost everyone from both teams were glaring at each other. Unfortunately not everyone had a good sportsmanship like Momo. Momo just giggled at all the childish behavior and reminisced about what had happened between her and Hitsugaya. It wasn't official, but they both considered themselves a couple.
So the drawing began. The girls ended up drawing Nanao while the boys drew Renji. Almost immediately, the all the guys started cheering while the girls started to feel nervous. All of them started to talk. Matsumoto started screaming. "I thought we made sure the boys were going to pick Omaeda-fukutaicho. They would've lost for sure. They must've figured out what we did." Matsumoto was obviously not happy about this and just glared at Toshiro.
"See Shiro-chan, I told you it was a good idea for me to keep watch with Kyoraku." Said an unusually healthy-looking Ukitake. He also gave Toshiro a goodie bag to help cheer him up because of their recent loss.
"It's not fair, he's achieved bankai already, we're dead." "We're going to win, we picked renji." "You got this one Abarai-fukutaicho."
There were all sorts of cheering and negative comments all around. Matsumoto looked extremely worried. If they lost she would never hear the end of it from her taicho. She wondered if Nanao could beat Renji, but then she realized she's never seen her fight before.
"Ise-fukutaicho, you're ready right?" She asked with a nervous tone. Nanao simply nodded her head and went to the arena.
At the arena Momo had wished her good luck and gave her a warm smile. Then Momo noticed Hitsugaya was staring at her and gave him a smile as well. He quickly turned around and blushed, but then watched the match begin.
Yamamoto started the match, and Renji released his zanpakuto. Afterwards, he immediately went on the offensive and swung it at Nanao, who easily flash stepped out of the way. Nanao showed a very calm exterior while she thought about what to do to win. She continued to think and finally thought of a way to beat Renji, but while in her thoughts, she was hit by the sword, leaving a bleeding cut on her left arm. She then started to dodge all his swings again while healing her arm with her kido.
After being completely healed she stood her ground while Renji stopped attacking. He got ready and smirked at Nanao as if he was mocking her. He started to release his bankai, but before he could Nanao flash stepped behind him and yelled out an incantation before blasting out a blue burst of reitsu.
Renji was knocked off his balance and Nanao quickly jumped towards him and binded him with another kido before taking out her unreleased zanpakuto and pointing at his neck threatening to kill him if he moved. Everyone was awed at how easily Nanao won, but Momo seemed to expect it. Momo had sparred with her once and figured out that Nanao's use of kido was almost as good as own.
Yamamoto declared Nanao the winner and she remained stoic and walked off the arena causing the girls team to start cheering again. Matsumoto changed from being the pissed fukutaicho to the happy and mocking fukutaicho.
"So Taicho, how's it feel now that you've lost two straight matches in a row?" Matsumoto asked with a smirk. Hitsugaya didn't even bother to answer the question and just left.
He got back to his division quickly. Renji was already there waiting for him. Toshiro had arranged it for him to be there ready to take his lecture. "S-Sorry Hitsugaya-taicho. I got over-confident and I, well it won't happen if I fight again." He said while stuttering in terror.
"You're right! It won't happen again. I'm going to give you the worst possible training exercises. I know exactly wha-" He was cut off by Momo's giggling.
"Hitsugaya-kun, don't be so mean to Renji-kun. He didn't lose on purpose and, I mean, Nanao is pretty good with kido." Momo said cheerfully. Renji, on the other hand, became calm here. With Momo here, he had an easy ticket to escape a slow icy punishment.
"Momo, I had a leg injury. I'm trying to tell Hitsugaya-taicho, but he doesn't believe me. It wasn't my fault, honest." He said with a sad voice that Momo immediately felt sorry for.
"Hitsugaya-kun, just let him go. He had a leg injury." Momo said with her own set of puppy-dog eyes. He was learning how to win these arguments with Momo and he found out the best way to win is to not look at her puppy-dog eyes.
"No! He needs to be properly trained." He said while being proud of being able to say no to Hinamori.
"Hitsugaya-kun, look at me." She said pleadingly. 'Avoid eye contact. Avoid eye contact. Avoid eye contact.' He continued to chant in his head and told her no again.
"Momo, he needs to be punishe-" "Ow, Hitsugaya-kun, my arm hurts." She interrupted hoping to get him to look at her and it worked. Hitsugaya looked at her and he cursed at himself for falling into her trap.
"Please Hitsugaya-kun, it wasn't really his fault. Just let him go." She said with her best set of puppy-dog eyes and this time it worked.
One look at her and his will was gone. "Fine." He said while giving Renji another glare. Renji quickly left and leaving only Hitsugaya and Momo in the room.
"Hitsugaya-kun, don't be so mad. I'm sure you'll win the next one." She said trying to cheer him up. "First of all, it's Hitsugaya-taicho and second of all, I'm not mad." He said while Momo quickly went to close the doors. Then she went closer to Hitsugaya and moved closer to his ear. "You're so cute when you're mad." She whispered before nibbling on his ear.
Matsumoto and all the other girls were in her room. They were waiting for Momo, but when she didn't show up they assumed she was already asleep. She then started the meeting and Soifon came up with a plan to win the next match.
