Long time no update guys!
I've been on holiday for 3 weeks or so, and is actually blocked at home so...and I can say that it is clearly the worst holiday I've had so far in life. Many reasons add up to it, to name a few; 1- my mum, 2- lots of assignments/homework/revision, 3- no internet, 4- the disgusting air
Anyhow, I've only just realised that the last chapter is quite confusing, I'll change it once I get to the Arrancar Arc or when I have time (which will be never). This chapter (I think) will also be quite confusing + I couldn't come up with a good chapter name so...
Toushiro- So?
Yuki- Uhh...nothing, look it's a flying dragon
Toushiro- Where?
Yuki- *sneaking away*
Toushiro- Oi! Nee-chan is being lazy
Yuki- Hah...I'm not lazy, I'm BUSY! Maybe you should do my homework Shiro-chan, since you're a genius.
Toushiro- No slacking, nee-chan. Hurry up with everything, I think Grimmjow is very impatient this time round.
Yuki- Hai! Jyaa, start us off please!
Toushiro- Fine, Here's Chapter 4!
Yuki- Oh, my favourite number, I should make this chapter longer and better
A.N- I reread the past chapters and found I had somehow given Ayaka glasses...so just to note when in shinigami form, she isn't wearing glasses. AND someone asked me about the flashbacks, why in the first one there were 6 but in the second one there were 5, I made a mistake...I've already uploaded a updated and fixed version.
Anyhow I will try and upload often but I have to wait til school starts to do it, so this will be my last chapter in a while.

Inside 10th squad barracks
"Where on earth is the taichou's office?" asked Kou.
"Just search for Shiro-chan's reiatsu, you should know where it is anyway, HE* was the previous captain afterall," replied Ayaka.
"I guess, but that means you should know, because you were also HIS* best friend."
A.N- * refers to someone else, not Toushiro.
"What on earth are you going on about, Kou-nii, nee-chan,"
"Shiro-chan! Don't suddenly appear like that!" said a slightly surprised Ayaka.
"Yeh, please don't do that, it's not good for my heart," requested Kou, as he held his thumping heart. Toushiro had appeared from directly beside him, out of nowhere.
"Gomen Kou-nii, I didn't mean to scare you but I just got back from the taichous' meeting, Kuchiki Rukia's punishment has been decided."
"Don't tell me Yama-jiji went overboard and gave her execution by the Sougyoku," queried Ayaka.
"Actually it is death by the Sougyoku."
"Oh did I say that out loud, sorry. But if it's really that isn't that a little bit too strict and I think we have to stop this, Rukia has something important that shouldn't land in anyone's hands."
"Hey Ayaka, I think we should go, the fuku-taichous' meeting just ended and we don't really want to be seen here so soon," said Kou, as he looked towards the darkening sky. "Ichigo and everyone seems to have successfully infiltrated Seireitei, I can feel their reiatsu."
"Who's Ichigo is he one of the ryokas? And what are you two planning to do about the execution?"
"We don't have time to talk about it now, Shiro-chan, Rangiku-san is coming and I need to go see Shun-kun and Uki, see you later I guess," replied Ayaka as she and Kou shunpoed off towards 8th squad barracks.
"Geez, they've been away for so long doing god knows what," Toushiro said to himself, "I really hope that time would rewind and the incident didn't happen."
"Taichou~"
"Matsumoto, how was the meeting?"
As the two walked towards the taichou's office, elsewhere Renji had engaged Ichigo in battle hoping that defeating him would save Rukia. As the two of them fought, both with the thought to save Rukia, three people watched them, Hanatarou, Ganju and Kou, who was watching from faraway. Kou had come when he felt Ichigo's reiatsu all the way from 8th squad barracks where he and Ayaka had gone to find Shunsui. He immediately left to search for him but upon seeing Renji, pulled back and decided to watch from afar. He was worried for the both of them, Ichigo being his good friend for many years and Renji being a friend from long ago, so with no choice but to watch he decided to sit by and record this fight.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Oof, that hurt," said Shunsui as he seemed to have walked into something. Looking down he saw someone seemingly familiar lying on the floor, but he couldn't believe his eyes.
"Itaii, watch where you're going will you?" exclaimed Ayaka, but when she looked up, "Shun-kun! Long time no see! How have you been?"
"Aya..ka? Is that really you?"
"Of course it is, in the flesh and bo..." she wasn't able to finish her sentence, as she had walked into a pole. "Ouchie, since when was there a pole there?"
"As clumsy as ever, I see."
"Shut up, I'm not exactly coordinated that's all." She replied, "However, I didn't come here to reflect, I came here to ask for you and Uki's help."
"With what might I ask?"
"Let's sit down with Uki first and I'll tell you both."
"Then let's head down to 13th squad then."
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Meanwhile, the battle between Ichigo and Renji had reached the climax, Renji looked like he was winning, but with a sudden peak in reiatsu and a quick slash, Ichigo had beaten Renji. As Renji proclaimed for Ichigo's help to save Rukia and then collapsed, Ichigo and Ganju slowly made their way back down to underneath Seireitei. From far, Kou had to physically restrain himself from jumping in to help one or rather the both of them. Instead he watched on as Kira and a few other Shinigamis arrived and took Renji away. Seeing them do so, he quickly got up and with a quick scan of the area, and headed to where Aya was, which is the 13th Squad.
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Uki! Long time no see," exclaimed Ayaka, as she pulled Ukitake into a bear hug.
"Ayaka! What are you doing here?" inquested a somewhat bewildered Ukitake.
"I decided to come back after all, this is my home."
"That's nice to know your back, should I inform Yama-sensei about it?"
"I don't think Aya would like that," interrupted Shunsui, as he laid lazily on the floor.
"Yeah, I don't really think I'm ready to explain what happened yet."
"Well it's really up to you, how have you guys been going all this time?" asked Ukitake, now sipping on steaming tea provided by his lieutenants.
"Let's also leave that for later, for now about the Ryokas…"
Suddenly, the door of the room slid open and a tall, blonde boy stepped inside. As he quickly closed the door behind him and sat down, he turned to look at the three people originally in the room.
"…"
"Long time no see, Aya-hime," the blonde boy said, breaking the silence.
"Tomo-chan," said Aya, she showed an expression of extreme happiness which was very rarely seen, "long time no see indeed, and don't call me Aya-hime, it's A.Y.A.K.A."
"Hai hai, why do all of you look so surprised?"
"Tomoki-kun, aren't you in the King's Guard?" quizzed Ukitake.
"I quit a few years back, and went to the real world."
"Heh…I bet you went for a…." Aya was once again interrupted by Kou, who had just stepped in.
"Oh! Tomoki, you came back as well?" Kou said as he sat down next to Tomoki, and exchanged a hug with him.
"Yeah, I know this is kind of not in the plan, but it felt necessary."
"Wait, what?" asked Ayaka, suddenly feeling extremely oblivious.
"I think they've been seeing each other in secret," mumbled Shunsui.
"Ehhh!" exclaimed Ayaka, as a light blush came and went on her pale cheeks.
Sighing Ukitake said, "I don't think Shunsui meant it in that way, he probably meant they often met up in the real world."
"Exactly what Juushiro said, we merely discussed some plans…" said Tomoki.
"What plans?"
"I think we should go now, I can hear footsteps coming this way," interrupted Kou.
"Aww…looks like we'll have to catch up another time," said Shunsui, as he sat up straight.
"Jyaa mata ne, Uki, Shun-kun, I left you a note on our plan so please read it and keep it away from anyone but you too. We'll see you at the execution." With that Tomoki, Ayaka and Kou bowed and then shunpoed away towards the sunset.
