Note: I know Hanatarou is completely OOC here,but hey what would you do if you had the chance to spend a day in someone else's body?
Chapter 5: Casanova Hana
Yugo entered 4th division, heavily panting from all the running. He felt like he collapse any moment. Hanatarou's body was pure hell. Not only was it weak, it also had a serious inferiority complex. After running around in Hantarou's body, Yugo started to feel sorry for him. He really was a nice guy, only a bit shy.
Suddenly Tsume barked, trying to get Yugo's attention. "You finally found him boy?" It had been hard to locate Hanatarou. Even though Tsume had his scent, Hanatarou moved around so fast that it was hard to find his exact position. He really seemed to enjoy Yugo's body.
Yugo hid Tsume in his shinigami robe and searched 4th division for Hanatarou. After about half an hour of running around, he finally found him. To Yugo's surprise he was busy chatting and laughing with two nurses, a large bunch of red roses clutched in his right hand.
"Hana... I mean Yugo, I finally found you!" Yugo sighed relieved. Hanatarou looked startled for a moment. "Oh um... Hanatarou, were you looking for me?"
"Yes I am. It's time for your medication Yugo." Yugo replied. "Please follow me to your room."
"Aww does he have to?" One of the nurses wrapped her arms around Hanatarou's neck. "He looks very healthy to me."
"Yea Hanatarou don't be such a spoilsport. Yugo-kun promised to take us out after our shift." The other one added, her eyes stabbing Yugo like daggers.
"I-it's really important that he comes with me." Yugo stammered.
"Alright I'll come." Hanatarou gave in. The two nurses sighed disappointed. Hanatarou took two roses form the bunch in his hand and gave one to each of the nurses. "A souvenir, to thank you for the short but sweet time we spent together." He said with a smile that could even melt Hyourinmaru. The nurses giggled uncontrollably when Hanatarou left and joined Yugo.
"So, what did you need me for?" Hanatarou asked innocently.
"I want my body back Hanatarou." Yugo begged. "I'm sure you miss yours too right?"
"Perhaps. I still got some unfinished business though so I'm afraid that you'll have to wait." Hanatarou smirked.
"Unfinished business? What are you talking about?" A train of terrifying thoughts rushed through Yugo's mind. "Hanatarou, what exactly did you do with my body?"
"I suppose I could tell you." Hanatarou grinned. "First I went to every division in Seireitei, which went very fast thanks to your body. You really are in good condition Yugo."
"Thanks but go on. What did you do?" Yugo pressed on.
"Well I personally told every shinigami that has mocked, laughed at ,insulted or hurt me in the past to stick where the sun doesn't shine. Believe me , that was pretty hard work. After that I went to a shop to buy eggs and flowers."
"Why did you do that!? Every shinigami in Seireitei wants to skin me alive now!" Yugo panicked. He wasn't sure if he wanted to know what Hanatarou had done with the flowers and eggs. Unfortunately, Hanatarou casually continued talking as if nothing had happened.
"The eggs were for 11th division. I've always wanted to get even at those jerks for making fun of my division so I egged their headquarters and some shinigami too."
"All that in my body? Hanatarou didn't you even think once about the consequences?" Yugo cried in despair.
"I did but I couldn't control myself. I'm not used to such a high reiatsu. It really feels … nice." Hanaratou smiled .
"Oh great, Hana's completely OD'd on my body."
"I know I shouldn't ask this but what are the flowers for?" Yugo asked almost crying.
"You'll see. It's the last thing I need to do before I'll give your body back." Hanatarou replied smiling.
"Can't we just go back to 12th division now?" Yugo begged him.
"No can do. This is the most important part. I've wanted to do this for ages now." Hanatarou ignored Yugo's pitiful plead. He turned around and started heading towards 4th divisions main ward. Yugo hurried to follow him.
"This is bad. I don't know what he's planning but I have to stop him! But how? This body is too weak to force him to stop and it seems that reasoning with him won't work either. It's like he's drugged with confidence."
When they arrived at the main ward Hanatarou stopped Yugo and signalled him to wait. He then headed straight to a tall shinigami with silver hair, who was treating a patient. Next to her stood another woman and judging by her coat, she was 4th divisions captain.
"Hello Unohana taichou, how are you today." Hanatarou greeted his captain.
"Fine thanks for asking ." Unohana replied with a smile." You're that boy from second they brought in yesterday aren't you? Yugo was it?"
"The one and only." Hanatarou smiled back. "Don't mind me Unohana taichou, I just came here to see my Isane-chan."
Isane was so startled that she dropped the medicine that she was about to give to her patient. She looked at Hanatarou, confused and shocked. "M-me? Why did you want to see me? Are you feeling okay? Does your stomach hurt again?"
"My stomach's fine, apart from the butterflies." Hanatarou smiled at her. Isane was now more confused than ever. Hanatarou cleared his throat and continued.
"Isane-chan, I've always wanted to say this to you but never I found the right words or courage. Since I'm not usually a man of many words allow me to express my everlasting love for with these flowers." He presented them to Isane who hesitantly accepted them. The entire ward, including Yugo, was now watching Isane and Hanatarou, impatiently waiting for Isanes answer.
"My, how bold." Unohana smiled. "Shall I leave you two alone Isane?"
"Taichou! It's not what you think!" Isane reacted shocked. She then turned to Hanatarou.
"Look Yugo, you're a really nice guy. I appreciate the flowers but I don't think if it's ever going to work between us. You're just not my type." A wave of disappointed washed through the entire ward, except for Yugo, who looked relieved.
"That's okay. At least I tried." Hanatarou replied smiling. Isane nodded shyly and wanted to give back the flowers but Hanatarou rejected them.
"No please keep them. I don't need them anymore." He then left the ward and joined Yugo.
"Now then, how about we switch back into our own bodies?" He suggested, as if nothing had happened.
"I'm not sure if I want my body back after all this…" Yugo sighed. "Hanatarou, why did you do all this?"
"Hmm? It's just that I loved Isane for so long now. If I had to keep it to myself any longer I would have exploded. Isane is my only true love!"
"What about those two girls from before then?" Yugo asked.
"Oh that was just practice. I wanted my confession to be perfect." Hanatarou smiled. " It was just wonderful don't you think?"
"You do realize that she rejected you?" Yugo pointed out.
"Not me, you. She said you're not her type and since I'm totally different from you that means my odds are increasing." Hanatarou replied excited.
"I don't care. What matters is that you abused my body and now everything will think that I'm some kind of madman. How am I supposed to get back into my division now?" Yugo was close to bursting out in tears.
"Speaking of your division, I met Omaeda fukutaichou on the way here. He gave me this letter." Hanatarou said to his sobbing companion. He pulled a letter out of his pocket and handed it to Yugo, who immediately started reading.
"So what does it say?" Hanatarou asked
"It says that I'm being reassigned. I'm now in fifth division till Soi Fong taichou calls me back."
"That's nice isn't it? No punishment then." Hanatarou replied.
"Yea but it also means my chances of making up with taichou decrease. Oh well, I better go along for now."
"Okay we better go see Kurotsuchi taichou." Yugo sighed. "I wonder how he and Yachiru are dealing with their new bodies?"
12th division, Mayuri's office.
Mayuri nervously walked back and forth in his office while angrily chewing on his 50th piece of candy. "No wonder that annoying brat's always so energetic. She practically lives on this horrible sweet substance."
"This is sooo boring!! Why can't Nemu-chan work any faster?" Mayuri sobbed while gobbling down three pieces of candy at once. At the same time someone knocked on the door.
"Yay she's finished!!" Mayuri cheered. "Come in Nemu-chan." Unfortunately it wasn't Nemu. Instead Zaraki appeared in the door opening with Yachiru on his back, which was a very strange sight.
"Ok you bastard, start explaining." Zaraki roared. "Why did you do with Yachiru?"
"I thought I already explained it to you Zaraki taichou." Yachiru said while getting of Zaraki's back.
"Yea but you used so many difficult words I couldn't understand it all." Zaraki replied..
"I'm sorry taichou, the verbal capacities of this body are more advanced than those of my previous form." Yachiru apologized.
"Yea whatever." Zaraki scratched his head.
"It would be best if you explained it to my captain , Kurotsuchi taichou." Yachiru said to Mayuri
"Umm okay I'll try." Mayuri replied." Well I had this really cool toy that could give people other bodies. I used it on Hana-kun and Poochie-san but then Yachiru tried to take the toy from me and it fell and we got hit too and then the toy didn't work anymore and now Nemu-chan is trying to fix it."
"Makes sense." Zaraki replied nodding. "So when is that toy ready again?"
"I don't know." Mayuri sobbed.
"Well you better know it fast cause I'm in a bad mood today punk." Zaraki growled. "First some bastard eggs our headquarters, including me, and then my vice-captain comes home in your ugly annoying body. Do you know how ridiculous I look now when I walk around Seireitei with her on my back?"
"Also your body doesn't seem to respond well to sweets and chocolate. I keep spitting them out when I try to eat one." Yachiru added.
"Don't be mean! It's not my fault!" Mayuri cried. "I'm sure Nemu-chan will be done soon." He had barely finished his sentence or Nemu entered the office.
"Mayuri-sama, I have repaired the device." She stated in her usual monotone voice.
"That' super!" Mayuri excitedly jumped up and down. "Please use it on me and Yachiru."
"Hai, Mayuri-sama." Nemu pressed the button and a bright beam struck Yachiru and Mayuri, switching back their souls.
"You okay Yachiru?" Zaraki asked a little worried.
"I'm fine Ken-chan!" Yachiru happily replied.
"Yes and everything seems in place here too." Mayuri said while checking his body.
"Not for long!" Zaraki shouted. "I'll teach you not to experiment on Yachiru!"
"What? No please wait!" Mayuri screamed in fear as he saw the enormous shinigami approach.
Later, still in 12th division.
"Please follow me." Nemu said to Hanatarou and Yugo leading them to Mayuri's office. When they arrived she grabbed the Soul Switcher from the desk and fired it at Yugo and Hanatarou. When the light had faded, Yugo released a sigh of relief.
"Thank god, I thought this nightmare would never end."
"I guess so. I sure had a great time though." Hanatarou sighed disappointed.
"Oh by the way, did Kurotsuchi taichou and Yachiru already switch back?" Yugo asked Nemu.
"Yes."
"Oh so where's your captain then? I thought he would be here."
Nemu pointed to a glass jar on the desk that seemed to be filled with some kind of slimy substance. "Mayuri-sama had a little argument with Zaraki taichou. He was forced to liquefy his body to escape."
"I see." Yugo replied grinning. "Serves that bastard right for messing with my body."
"We better go now Yugo." Hanatarou pulled Yugo's arm. "I've been away from my work too long now and you still need to prepare to move to 5th division."
"I suppose you're right." Yugo sighed. He really wasn't looking forward to be switched to another division. After Yugo and Hanatarou had left Nemu placed the soul switcher next to Mayuri's jar, accidentally knocking it of the desk. The jar broke in thousand pieces, splashing Mayuri all over the office.
"My sincerest apologies, Mayuri-sama." Nemu apologized with a bow.
