3. Meetings

So, Ukitake taichou finally decided to pick a new vice-captain!?´´ Asked Matsumoto with glowing face.

That's right and he's going to present him in today's meeting´´ replied Kira.

Well I heard she's a girl Blondie!´´ Said Yachiru who was running around the table from excitement.

Really? That's interesting.´´ Commented Renji with shining eyes.

Be careful Casanova.´´ teased Matsumoto with a grin.

It's a good thing hearing that.´´ Said Nanao while taking her eyes from her book. We hadn't any female recruits the last years and all of them joined 10th division.´´

That's true Matsumoto. Your captain is attracting all the girls like a magnet.´´ Complained Iba from his corner.

Don't remind me that. Since he grown up to the man he is now, I have a really hard time. I can't go out to drink so easily. I have him scolding me and making me to do the dirty job. I'm overloaded with missions of getting over his fun club.´´ Said Matsumoto in sighs.

He doesn't appreciate his fun club at all eh?´´ said Nanao.

Nope. I think that if there wasn't the restrict about using our zanpakoutos inside Seireitei, he would have turn them into ice statues long ago.´´

At that point Rukia entered the room and announced that Ukitake taichou was coming. Everyone gathered near the door looking forward to meeting their new colleague. Ukitake entered the room with a strange light in his eyes and a big smile. He was being followed by another small figure.

Ohayo mina-san (everyone), I've got the pleasure to present you the new vice-captain of the 13th division.´´ He brushed aside and everyone saw a young girl slight taller than Rukia with raven colored hairs picked in pigtails and hazel eyes. The petite girl bowed to present herself with trembling voice.

Ohayou(gozaimasu) minna-san. Watashi no namae wa Hinamori Momo desu. Hajimemashite. (good morning my name is … nice to meet you).´´

Everyone had frozen from the surprise. The first one who recovered was Yachiru who jumped and gave Hinamori a hug and shouted.

Welcome to our family Peach-girl.´´

Instantly all the others approached her to give her congratulations and welcome her.

Yeah Hina-chan we must have a party tonight to celebrate.´´ shouted Matsumoto while having Hinamori in her strong embrace.

You're having a drink party every night because your taichou is missing in a mission in the real world.´´ replied Nanao who came to rescue the poor girl from being drown.

The news about the new officer spread around Seireitei quickly. The captains and some other people winked in surprise and thought that many things would change for a white haired captain fellow of theirs.

Hinamori relaxed after the warm welcome that she was given from the rest. She soon started knowing them better.

She developed good relationship with Nanao, who was willing to help her with her duties and considered her more mature than other people she knew. Matsumoto was a daily visitor who came to chit chat. Moreover Zaraki taichou often had business that Yachiru couldn't be present. Unohana who was willing to keep the pinked haired girl was always busy those days and because everyone else disappeared with amazing speed in the hearing of such a request the little girl was entrusted to Hinamori's care. They spent those days by reading fairy tales and playing board games.

Hinamori had met most of the captains and had developed her opinion for them.

Yamamoto-soutaichou was a respected and wise man who caused a little fear though.

She admired Soi Fong for her skills and her ability to keep everything in order.

Ichimaru Gin was… Ichimaru Gin. She wondered how he didn't bump into any walls.

Since she had met Unohana taichou she wished she had the same patience with her.

The Kurosaki captains were completely different from the rest. Every day Ichigo's father was going to say good morning and give the usual kick. Ichigo managed to dodge it and they started fighting. Their fights in combination with Rukia's and Ichigo's arguments made the 5th division livelier than the 11th. However, Hinamori knew that they deserved their ranks, even if Kurosaki Isshin had put his wife's poster in a visible position inside the office.

Kuchiki taichou was an example for a captain, a bit cold though. Kommamura the same.

Kyorakou taichou seemed like a discord in comparison with the rest.

She didn't feared Zaraki because he treated her in a very good way because of Yachiru. Still she wondered how his division wasn't burnt.

In her opinion Mayuri was the incarnation of a mad scientist. She was pretty sure that he performed the evil laugh of the bad guys when he was alone.

She also respected and loved her own captain and understood the two 3rd seat officers who were arguing about who would take care of him.

There was only one captain she hadn't met yet. Hitsugaya. She had discovered that she had never seen him and was very curious to meet him. She had heard various opinions about him.

Matsumoto said that he was a workaholic. Most of the men said that he was a cold-hearted demon while girls believed that he was one of the most handsome and hot men in Soul Society. She looked forward to discovering the truth.


At the 6th division.

Too much work right taichou?´´

As you can see Abarai, so please don't bother me.´´

Ah Byakushi, what are you doing? ... Ah you're reading shoujo mangas!´´

WHAT! Taichou again?´´


At the 10th division.

OMG, taichou is going to be here tomorrow and I haven't finished the paperwork. Oh I need a miracle.´´ Whined Matsumoto. wait a minute am I sick? Since when I' m doing paperwork. I'll just have someone else do it.´´ And with that she left to find her victim.

After she secured that the paperwork was done she returned to her office. She occupied the couch and put her hands behind her head. Tomorrow her captain would return. He would certainly be informed about the 13th division's new vice-captain. He would know that the love of his life was back with no memories of him.

Shall I tease him or go somewhere to hide.´´ She wondered. Her thoughts were interrupted when the door opened and the person who walked in was … Hitsugaya.! She looked at him with obvious surprise.

Taichou what're you doing here?´´ she asked.

I have finished with my mission earlier than expected.´´ He replied with his usual cold dull expression.

At that point she couldn't resist and an evil grin sprouted in her lips. He noticed that and asked her with suspect.

What's that grin for? It means really bad thinks every time I see it.´´

I don't think so taichou. Not this time.´´

Then the door opened and Hitsugaya turned to see who dared enter his office without to knock.


Oh the agst! The purple buton is waiting!!
