–––Well Hello there! this is the very first chapter of my story. You might be wondering what happened to my OC and her mission well let Mr. Urahara enlighten u guys! Hope you like it!

Kisuke Urahara was sitting on the front of his shop, holding a silver pendant with a crimson circle. He kept looking at it deeply and with guilt, If he just had stopped her...

"Master are you all right?" He looked up to see Tessai looking at him with a preoccupied look clearly in his face. He put the pendant and his thoughts aside for a minute and smiled

"Yes, Tessai I'm alright. Just thinking of some old friends," Tessai nodded and saw the pendant. he then cleared his throat nervously and asked

"Were you thinking of her, sir?" Urahara sighed in a melancholy way and decided to tell him how he felt currently.

"Yes, Tessai I was actually thinking about her. It's just that... I feel guilty that I actually agreed to help her. If I hadn't maybe she would still be here." They both sighed while looking at the lowering sun. Tessai decided to break the silence and look at something good about the moment and the memory of the girl.

"Well, know I do remember she was actually very beautiful and that she decided to wear a veil just to cover her face and avoid every single man to look at her within a 10 mile radius," Urahara laughed at his good memory and when he finally stopped he was out of breath, Tessai chuckling a bit. He himself remembered the girl quite vividly but he couldn't remember what had happened to her, it took a few moments for him to muster up some of his courage and ask him.

"umm sir, what was it again that happened to her?" Urahara's face changed from a smile to a grim look.

"If you really want to know... then I guess I can tell you. Right after I had become captain of the 12 division, I befriended a substitute soul reaper from that time and we became close friends. One day, Old man Yamamoto sent her with a patrol squad out on a long term mission. She confided with me the custody of her real body and soul chain. Well, right after a few months, there was some problems in the area where they were stationed. A large group of Gillians and Menos Grande attacked them and when they sent a search squad, they couldn't find a single trace of them or the hollows. The only thing they found was one of the flowers that was on her most precious hair pin lying on the ground. They declared them all dead and nobody cared what happened to them afterwards"

Tessai gave him a shocked look at the end and the terrible fate of his master's friend. He then regretted asking "I'm sorry to have brought up some painful memories," Urahara then smiled sadly

"Don't apologize. You did have the right to ask aft-" He was stopped when a bright light and a Senkaimon opened. Both men stopped and looked at the gate, waiting for whomever came through it. A second later, Rukia Kuchki came through the senkaimon, which faded away.

"Rukia! What are you doing here?"asked Urahara surprised. Rukia, who was breathless at the moment, had a hard moment explaining.

"Whoa, there. Take a deep breath and relax, now tell me what happened" Rukia got her composure back and then looked at him seriously

"I myself don't know but Head Captain Yamamoto has requested that you come with me to the Department of R&D. Something strange just came up on their screens." Kisuke Urahara wondered what could have made the Head-Captain put aside his eternal banishment so that he could come look at something unusual, unusual enough that Kurotsuchi Mayuri couldn't identify.

He looked at Tessai who nodded and went inside and after a few minutes, came back with his old captain uniform. He then went inside changed, and instantly came back outside where Rukia and Tessai were waiting. They quickly went through the Senkaimon, not wasting any time.

When they finally reached the end of the dark, cold corridor that was the dimension between the world of the living and the soul society, they all came out in a dark laboratory with lots of screens and a small group of people in it. When immediately reaching the small group, the party of three stopped.

Some faces looked grim, confused, but at some weren't showing anything that indicated bad news. Out in the middle of the group, an old man with overgrown facial hair looked at him and Urahara understood that he wanted to talk to him. He got closer and looked at some of the screens. Some showed strange readings and others showed diagrams of a certain flower like crystal. Something about that crystal bothered him...

"Kisuke Urahara" He looked at the old man that had called him, weariness truly visible in his face.

"What in the world is going on here? Why have you put my banishment aside for this?" He asked strongly at the bearded man. The Head Captain cleared his throat and took a deep breath

"We have come across something that no one of us Gotei 13 has ever encountered. No one probably except you, Urahara."Urahara looked astounded by this revelation and then got a small smile.

"But then again could you please explain the situation?" He nodded at Mayuri who came up and gave him a look of disdain

"Well, this strange reading of energy was first detected this morning, it seems to be coming from the Reservoir of Memories. We sent one of the scouts to look at it who came back with this sample of a strange crystal flower. We don't know what it is, or what effects it has on the soul's structure, but we're in the process of examining the sample. During the main phase, we found some strange data and code engraved in the sample. We tried to decode it with every single bit of data in our possession, but nothing seems to be able to recognize it, except... well we found that there was a small document with one of the matching symbols and with your name in it."

Mayuri presented an open folder which had one of the symbols in the screen. He took it carefully and started remembering where did his research come across this. He remembered then.

"Well if I do remember well, this symbol comes from one of the ruins near the Reservoir of Memories, I went there to check them out, and the only symbol I was able to decipher was the words glass," Everyone looked at him with a strange look, in their minds, they all thought of that word. Suddenly Captain Ukitake spoke for all of them

"But why that word? And what those it have to do with the ruins?"

Urahara looked like he was deep in thought "I really don't know, but it might be something to do with the Reservoir itself." Suddenly, a blaring alarm made them all jump. The atmosphere was tense and suddenly this? Kurotsuchi quickly looked at the monitors to see some energy readings spike up. He put his focus on this and a map of the Reservoir appeared.

The map showed the rapid movement of a white mass across the map, and suddenly the mass stopped. The entire group focused their attention on the screen. Most of them looked nervously at Mayuri, some looked at the screen, confused.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri himself didn't know what was going on. Finally he got the info he needed. He turned to the other waiting captains and gave them the news.

"Apparently, there was a small crack in the Reservoir due to the large spiritual pressure. Some of the memories leaked out and froze outside. We need to send someone who has a powerful fire based zanpaktou." After he declared the situation, all of them looked at the Head Captain. His eyes widened at this and then he looked at them questioningly.

He sighed and then let his head drop. He never had been commanded by his subordinates, and it certainly wasn't easy taking it, especially from the crazy maniac that was his 12th squad leader. He felt someone patting his back and lifted his head to see Kisuke Urahara smiling kindly.

"Don't worry old man, I'll accompany you, anyways, I wanted to check the site out." The Head Captain nodded and suggested that they leave. They both left and the rest of the group started pondering on this mystery.

Later in the Reservoir...

It was cold. Very cold. There was mist everywhere. They could barely see two feet in front of them. But they still managed to find the source of both the mist and the strange energy. They stood before a medium sized glacier and there was something trapped in the core.

But they still couldn't see it. They concentrated more on that very core. Their eyes widened as their minds processed who was trapped in the glacier. There, inside the glacier, frozen, was a beautiful girl, around seventeen or eighteen, wearing a shinigami uniform. And in her hair, there was a beautiful flower pin that had three flower buds yet to bloom. But the most mysterious thing was, she was on her knees and her hands were together, like if she were praying.

The Head Captain didn't understand the look in the other man's face. it was a look of relief and joy, but mixed with some horror. None of them said anything until Urahara broke the silence.
