Chapter 3

The next song that the lieutenants got the device playing was called 'Letters from War' by Mark Schultz. By the end Isane looked like she was about to cry and Renji just looked sad, until they heard that the son made it home safely. After that the songs varied. Lady Unohana kept her eyes on me.

After a short while my eyes began to flutter open. Lady Unohana said nothing. I first looked at her, but she instructed me not to speak and pointed to the two listening to the device. The current song being 'Hit the Floor, by Linkin Park'. I smiled at the weird look the two had, and looked back to the woman. Her eyes were soft as was her face and she was smiling at me. Though I didn't smile back I did relax.

Looking back over at the two people, who still had not noticed I had woken, the song ended and the next Linkin Park song started up. 'What I've done,' the intro was long as usual but I found my feet tapping along with the rhythm of the song. As the words started, I mouthed along with them and the lady beside be urged me to sing out loud. I guess she wanted to scare them because when I did they both jumped and dropped the earphones. I quit singing immediately, I hated singing when people were around, and began to sit up. The lady helped me as the two looked at me in fear and shock.

I looked over at them before finally asking, "What are you doing with my Ipod?"

"W-what?" Renji asked, stunned.

"My Ipod, the music payer in your hand, it's really expensive if you don't mind giving it back." Slowly Renji got up and walked over to me. He placed the Ipod on the table next to me and I picked it up. I was turning down the volume on it when I looked down and saw what I was wearing. "What the, what is this…" I picked up my sleeve and looked around the outfit.

"You don't know?" the Lady asked.

"I know what it is, but how did I get into it?" No one answered me. "What is going on, and where am I?"

The Lady answered me finally, "you are in the Squad Four barracks of the Seireitei, inside of Soul Society. Do you understand me?"

"Y-Yeah I guess…W-what about Rukia?" I looked around, the only one I recognized was the red-haired boy named Renji. But he didn't answer me either. The woman did again.

"I am Retsu Unohana, Captain of Squad Four; this is Isane, my Lieutenant and Renji, Lieutenant of Squad Six. What is your name?"

"I –I'm Kitty Hyuga, ma'am," I said. Squad Four and Six, how many are there?

"Do you remember how you got here?"

"Yes, I ran after Renji and Captain Byakuya into that gate, ma'am."

"And you remember fainting?"

"Kinda, just weakness then it all blacked out." Captain Unohana nodded but said nothing to this. I looked back at my Ipod and then at the closes I wear, then to the sword at my side. My eyes widened as and my fingers went to trace it. "Why am I dressed as a shinigami anyway? And where did this sword come from?" I looked back at them. Renji was eyeing the sword wearily. I detached it from the belt and handed it to him.

"What?" he asked suddenly confused.

"I'm a trespasser; I shouldn't be carrying a weapon whether or not I know how to use it." He finally took it and laid it on the other bed. From it my eyes were drown to the person lying in the bed. My eyes grew big but I said nothing until I swerved to face the captain. "What is going on with me? What am I?!"

The three of them looked at me in confusion and the captain looked at me in pity as well.

"Kitty, what lays in that bed over there is a gigai," the woman said to me.

"A gigai? Like what Rukia used, the objects used to house a shinigamis' soul, but how can I have been in one?? I've lived my whole life on the Earth? Haven't I?!" my eyes pleading her to explain it all to me then and there but no explanation was going to calm me too much for no one really had one.

"I don't know what is going on but you are here now and you need to rest, from what Captain Ukitate told me you went through quite a bit when you left your gigai." She said soothingly, "you will be guarded over night and hopefully we can come up with any explanations, we will take the gigai to examine. Is there anything from it you need?"

I was numb, all over. But I answered her anyway. "My cell is in the left pocket of my jeans, and I think I left my purse in…in the living world." my voice faded off. Renji dug into the pocket and pulled out my cell phone, looking at it then handed it to me also, "Not that it's going to work here anyway, I doubt the satellite signal reaches this world."

Nothing was really said after that. Some other shinigami came and took the gigai away, that crept me out a lot; whether it was fake or not I still felt as if it was my body not some artificial one.

I set the Ipod and cell on the table and lay down but I was not sleepy or tired in anyway. Unohana had examined me and I was so far ok. She and Renji left and I was left with two guards outside of me room. Isane was the only one still in the room with me. I watched her but all too soon I was staring off into space. It took me quite sometime to realize she had begun to speak.

"Ha? What I'm sorry… I didn't hear you."

"Do you have family that will worry?"

"Um…no not really" she looked confused, "I grew up with my foster grandparents, …they die- well were killed about two years ago…" my voice was failing me at that point.

"I'm sorry, what about your parents?" the way she asked I knew she was allowing me to answer or not. But I thought maybe if I told… it would help find out who I am.

"You see, when my Grandmother was dieing she told me that I wasn't really their grandchild, they didn't even have any children. They had found me in the woods as a baby after a large windstorm had completely destroyed the place. No one reported a missing or stolen child so they took me in as their own. That's how I lived…"

"Oh my…(quietly) You should tell Captain Ukitate tomorrow. He will be asking the questions in the …interrogation. Do you remember the Captain?"

"He's the man with silver hair, right? What squad does he head?"

"Squad 13. So you know about the squads?"

"No, I just listen really well. How many are there, squads that is?"

"There are 13, each had its' own Captain and Lieutenant. Then there is the Squad One Captain, the General Yamamoto, he is the head of 13 Squads." She smiled and glanced at me, "your really interested in everything aren't you, do we have anything to worry about with you, Kitty?"

"No not me, I just am curious. You know, I've been able to see ghosts for as long as I can remember but from what Rukia told me, how shinigami send the souls to this world, I never saw one shinigami until I met Rukia, and before that the only other person that I knew of who could see ghosts was Ichigo. I –I hope he lived."

"Who…?"

"Ichigo…he tried to stop Rukia from being taken by the Squad Six Captain and lieutenant but Byakuya…he sliced him throw the chest with his sword. They said he would die within the hour…."

"I'm sorry." The room fell silent as and the lieutenant sat down beside the bed. I was about to ask her another question when the Ipod started up again. She jumped nicely at that, I simply picked it up.

"What is that thing?"

"An Ipod, It plays music, only the music that you upload onto it though, so you have to buy each song. What songs did you hear anyway?"

"Um, something about a letter, one about being a father, a…"

"I like whose songs, there cute and sad, I like depressing songs for some reason."

"You know which one's I'm talking about?" she sounded shocked.

"Yes, Letters from War, and Cleaning this Gun, these right..?" clicking around I held the earphone up to her so she could hear it too.

"What do I do with it?"

"You put it in your ear, like this…" I demonstrated.

"That seems a little strange…"

"Try it; it makes the songs better then just hearing five feet from the speakers," still she was uncertain but put it in her ears anyway. I played the song again and she nodded.

"How did you know?!"

"When they are the songs you hear everyday you learn them every quickly, I could sing along with ever song on here."

"Really? Now many are on that thing?"

"Um, lets see…One hundred and fifty roughly…"

"A hundred and fifty!! And you know each one!!"

"Yes, and the memory is not even half full…I could fit another …200 on here…" I had never seen such big of eyes before. I couldn't help but laughed at her, and she blushed from something or another.

After a little bit we got into a conversation, she told me all about the squads and their captains; I couldn't wait to meet them, but at the rate I was going, I'd be lucky not to end up in a cell the rest of my life, and according to Rukia that would be a long time in Soul Society.

At about four in the morning she piped up that we should get to sleep. They would probable come by early for the questioning. I couldn't wait to meet more shinigami! If this really was where I was from, there was no way I wanted to leave this place, ever!

We fell asleep, she took the second now empty bed and I stuck the earphones in my ears, falling asleep to Colbie Caillat – 'Bubbly'

The next day I woke from the light shining in my window on my face. Why didn't I shut the curtains like usual? I am not an early bird in the least. Blinking open I looked around and the nights events came flooding back to my head. I shot up and looked around. Lady Unohana was in the room but Isane was still asleep on the other bed. I couldn't keep the smile from my face as I looked around. Captain Unohana caught sight of it and smiled. "Did we have a good night? From the looks of it you stayed up late, Isane is usually up before me." She laughed lightly. I couldn't help but smile more.

"I think we went to bed at four." I informed her. She shock her head a little, "I just want to know everything about this place, it so amazing!"

"I'm glad you think so, Captain Ukitate will be here shortly. Are you hungry?"

"Yes, starving." She paused at this but said nothing just brought a tray of food over. Thanking her I began to eat and she went over to wake Isane.

"Hu..what" the silver-haired woman slowly woke as her Captain shook her wake. When she saw it was her captain though, she was wide awake, and a little embarrassed to have slept so long.

"Go get some breakfast Isane, I'll stay until Ukitate comes," Isane nodded and left, leaving me and the Captain alone. The Captain did not say all that much at all and I had no clue what to say to her, she was one of the top shinigami in the world apparently, and what as I?, some little girl who didn't even know what I was, or who I really was.

Ukitate arrived around eight in the morning. The questioning got under way after introductions. They were small questions: what were my intentions upon coming here, how did I intend to help Rukia, how long have I known about shinigami, stuff like that but after a while they got more into my past, how long have I seen ghosts, who were my parents; that's when it got interesting. (Over the time of the interrogation, the Captain of Squad Six came to listen in as well)

"There is a little story I told Isane that she said I should tell you." so I began again with the story of how my grandparents were dieing and what my Grandmother had told me. The Captains were silent through out the story, they eyes didn't betray a thing of that they were thinking. '

They are captains, why should they?

This story produced new, different questions: what type of storm damage had they found me in, what did the trees look damaged by or how were they broken, what type of killing happened, any strange activity, I knew about hollows so could they have been involved in it? And I did not like the answers they were formulating, assuming that it was a battle with hollows not a windstorm that resulted in the damages; that my grandparents had been killed by hollows for some reason, these did not comfort me at all.

"Kitty, have you ever shown…certain powers, spiritual powers perhaps?" Ukitate asked.

"Yes," I said. All the shinigami around got big bug like eyes. "I'm not stupid, I think I can guess where you're going and it's not like I haven't thought of that yet. I already knew these powers…weren't exactly human. Ever since I meet Rukia I've gotten this strange feeling I'm not human anyway." I felt like turning my back to them but that wasn't exactly the best or politest thing to do. Silence met my statement, they blinked a few times, I felt like glaring. Finally Captain Ukitate asked me to demonstrate the power if I could.

"No, their attacks and…I know your captains and I couldn't lay a scratch on you but still…" I didn't want to damage anything after they had been kind enough not to put me in jail after causing such a fuss.

"We will be able to neutralize anything that might happen, Kitty. We can stop any attack from a weak soul." Captain Ukitate replied.

Captain Kuchiki stepped forward, "Aim it at me, I will hold whatever you produce and stop it from causing damage." Captain Ukitate and I both looked at the Captain a little shocked.

"O-Ok" I said when no one else protested. I raised my hands to him and drew the power it the palm of my hand. Slowly the red ball appeared at it. Kuchiki raised his own hand to stop the attack if it went too far. The ball grew with the energy I placed into it, larger it grew then ever I had been able to manifest it before, until it shot from my hand toward the Captain. He caught it with no problem, Captain Ukitate approached it before the Captain slowly dissolved the ball and it was gone.

"That was a kido alright, number 33 I would say." Captain Ukitate spoke; Captain Kuchiki nodded in agreement before the Squad 13 Captain turned to me again. "You did that without a spirit chant?"

"A what?"

"Of course, you wouldn't know what a spirit chant is. It's a verse of words, a spell if you will, we say to strengthen the kido. The spirit attack you just used is number 33, the Red Flame Cannon."

"They have names…and numbers…?"

"Yes, there are 99, the lower numbered ones are weaker than the higher numbered kidos. How long have you known how to do these?" Captain Ukitate asked.

"I've been practicing them for over ten years…"

"Ten! How old are you anyway?"

"I'll be 16 soon…at least that's the birthday my grandparents gave me since I don't know my real birthday…" my eyes lowered.

"Kitty, how are you feeling about all of this?"

"Hu…What do you mean?" I asked Captain Ukitate.

"Finding all this out, if you were really born here, then why were you taken from the Soul Society and left in the human world, if you had been left here you would be attending the academy. You may have even already known the name of your zanpako. And you wouldn't have all these questions about everything. Would you have preferred if you never came here and found this out? Or would you have preferred you were never taken from this place in the first place? And…would you like to find out why you were taken, if not then we can not investigate and simply remover you of your power and return you to the real world in a gigai that will slowly turn you into a true human or-"

"NO!! I don't want that!! If I have to choose the human world or the Soul Society, I chose Soul Society! Hands down! If this is where I was meant to be then I want to know why I was taken from here! I have no reason and no body to return to in the human world; I may have someone to go to here though! I may have a mother and father! And even siblings! I would rather die than you sending me back after I know all of this! I want to be a shinigami! That would be amazing! After what Rukia taught Ichigo and what she told me, even then I would rather have been here than in the human world!" I lowered my head and my voice quieted a little, "I guess that is one reason why I didn't think when I followed you into the gate; I had already made my decision long ago. I want to be here, Captain, I want to stay here."

No one answered my reply, Lady Unohana sat down beside me and took my hand, Captain Kuchiki called Captain Ukitate out of the room and the men did not return.
