Chapter 3: We're staying where!

Ayume arrived at work on time as usual, when she'd been the captain of 3rd division she had always insisted that all her subordinates had to be on time. But now that she thought about it Kyo had never once been on time but despite all her threats to transfer him she'd never once intended to. She was in truth grateful he'd chosen to stick with her even after the incident with Aizen and losing her powers, she'd told him they were equals but yet he still followed her with fierce loyalty, and wasn't afraid to point out when she was getting too paranoid.

Even though he was a real pain in the butt at times and dreadfully lazy, she was glad he was still by her side and the same, after all it was very common for shinigami who were on the living world for too long to develop rebellious attitudes, she guessed this was why soul society was so against people staying on the living world too long.

"Tadashi sensei" an orange haired student said snapping her out of her thoughts, she looked up at the clock, it was the second period of the day, she noticed the students all by a computer, so she grabbed the roll for class 1-3, and after calling out the names she noticed several unfamiliar students.

"Oh sensei we have some transfer students in our class" one of the female students she recognised to be by the name of Tatsuki answered her questioning gaze, she looked at the new students and asked for their names.

One of them a boy with white spiky hair who looked to be more of a elementary school kid then a high school student stood up "I'm Hitsugaya Toshiro" she nodded at him, then looked at the other four "oh I'm Rukia Kuchiki and that's Renji Abarai" the raven haired girl answered for the red haired boy with tattoos on his face who was looking very bored.

She looked at the other two expecting an answer, the black haired one with the strange eyebrows from last night answered simply "I'm Yumichika Ayasegawa and my bald friend is Ikkaku Madarame" pointing at the bald haired shinigami from last night.

She nodded "well now that's done everyone log in oh and the person who closest to the new students please help them" she announced going to turn on her own laptop.

As the lesson went on, everyone was just following a sheet of instructions so all she had to do was make sure no one was having trouble, she had to suppress some laughter when she walked around to see 3 of the new transfer students staring at their computers evilly they seemed to be having trouble turning them on.

She walked up to the group and looked at them amused 'they really suck at this don't they' she heard her zanpakto haned Okami say to her in her mind, she nodded in total agreement, ever since she'd fully regained her powers again it seemed her zanpakto was a lot more talkative

"Can I help you boys out?" she asked, the three in question that were having problems turned to face her, she noticed the one by the name of Yumichika look wide eyed at her 'he knows your secret' Okami said in her mind 'shut up Okami I know he does'.

"Is something wrong" she questioned as if she had no clue what was going on "yeah how we turn these damm things on" Ikkaku stated, she pointed to the on button.

"Thank you Tadashi sensei say have I seen you before" Yumichika said, thankfully another student by the name of Orihime Inue who sat next to Ichigo Kurosaki called for her. 'Oh that was a close save if I ever saw one' Okami commented. She retorted with a glare in no particular direction 'could you please retain your comments for just a little while Okami' Ayume then looked at Yumichika and shook her head "no never seen you before now get back to work".

Once class was over most of the students left to go on to their morning break, however the group of supposed 'transfer' students walked over to her as she was now turning off her computer.

"Oh Tadashi sensei thank you so much for the help and I must say I'm sorry for the comment I made last night I didn't realise you were so sensitive" the one she knew as Yumichika apologised, she looked at him blankly "what are you talking about?"

"Yes I'm sorry my friend here didn't introduce himself to you and that young boy last night" he said further, this gained looks from the other 3, she ignored them "uh kid I have no idea what you're talking about you must've mistaken me for someone else" she lied.

He sighed "oh well that female was quite beautiful even in that white haori" he said continuing on, she sweat dropped at the mention of the haori 'oh someone's in trouble now' Okami commented Ayume frowned at the comment "well I have to say your quite strange for a transfer student and I have a meeting" she lied to get her way out of the room.


When she reached the staff room she sat on a chair and let out a sigh of relief "that was too close I can't believe my carelessness it's a good thing he didn't pay attention to the number" she said to no one in particular 'yeah if he did you'd be a in a heap of trouble with that freaky old yamamoto guy' Okami commented.

She frowned and was about to retort back at her zanpakto but heard her phone go off, she took it out of her pocket and answered "Ayume Tadashi speaking oh Kyo did you find us a place to stay from those numbers" he asked.

"Well yes but I had to use the last number on the list it had some strange scribbles near it" Kyo replied on his phone, Ayume started to worry "you don't mean the one I think you do" she said trying to hide the worry

"It was marked in red with 'in extreme emergency's only' on it" he said confirming her fears "Oh no…"she moaned, Kyo noticed the change in her tone "what's wrong" she simply replied "nothing so what'd the guy say?" she asked.

"Oh I got this guy called Tessai he said he'd get the manager" she cocked an eye at this "and…" Kyo soon continued "he said he'd gladly help but we'd have to help out in the shop a bit" Kyo stated rather relaxed completely unaware of what he'd just signed on to.

"Don't say you agreed" she said seriously, Kyo sounded worried now "I did but you know the funny thing" Kyo said, Ayume rolled her eyes "what" he simply replied "I'm at his shop now and he said he knows you wait I got to go see you later Ayume" Kyo then hung up.

Ayume cursed loudly "of all the people it had to be Kisuke" she muttered quietly to herself 'ha shame that what you get for relying on that fool' Ayume rolled her eyes 'no Okami you just don't like him that's all he's not that much of an idiot' she said in her mind.

Okami scoffed 'yeah right and its not that I hate him he just annoys me' Ayume sighed 'you really are one sceptical wolf aren't you' Ayume retorted 'of course that's my nature and besides I'm a reflection of you' Okami retorted.

Okami disappeared again after that and Ayume noticed an orangey blond haired woman looking at her "are you okay" the woman asked, Ayume nodded "oh you sounded like you were talking to a guy is he your boyfriend" the woman said.

Ayume looked at her mortified "no way Kyos just a close friend" she quickly replied, the woman giggled "you sounded really close to him that's all no need to over react by the way I'm Rangiku Matsumoto I'm taking over for the gym teacher as he's in hospital and you are" the woman introduced herself. (A/N 3)

Ayume smiled she could sense this woman had spiritual power and quite a bit of it "Ayume Tadashi I teach computing here" she replied.

"Nice to meet you Ayume san you must be pretty young" the woman said, Ayume frowned 'well at least shes unaware of your powers Ayume' Okami commented. Ayume ignored Okami and looked at the woman looking a bit embarrassed "uh well no I've been here for a few years now I'm older than I look" she answered 'much much older' Okami joked.

The woman smiled amazed at her answer "really wow I thought you were new or something you look like a 22 year old to me" Ayume decided to take it as a compliment but secretly wished she could age at least a bit 'ha but the you'd look pretty ugly and old' Okami commented ,Ayume frowned 'Okami your annoying'.

"Yeah I'm used to it so you new to teaching" Ayume asked changing the topic, Rangiku smiled eagerly "yeah you could say that but I've got to go now I've got to teach my little captains class I get to tell him what to do for once" the woman said grinning. Ayume understood what she was saying but faked ignorance "oh just forget I said that" she said running off, Ayume looked confused now 'wow something major is up alright' Okami said, Ayume nodded before going off to teach her next class.


Ayume stood outside the Urahara shoten, Kyo had texted the address to her shortly after Matsomoto had left, she looked at it muttering "stupid baka why'd it have to be this of all places!"

There were two children arguing outside the shop, they had discarded their brooms and the boy who was red headed was yelling at a black haired pig tailed girl, they were both wearing plain white t-shirts with Urahara shoten emblazoned on them.

Just as she walked up to them she noticed a tall dark skinned man come out and scold the boy, who she soon figured out was Jinta, once they stopped arguing with him, they looked at Ayume, she faked a smile.

"Hi there you haven't by any chance seen a blond haired guy who wears a ridiculous green and white bucket hat and that has a strange sense of fashion have you" she said adding the comments sarcastically, Okami sniggered in her mind 'nice description'.

The tall man she recognised as Tessai the man who was constantly around Urahara looked at her then nodded "you must mean the manager and you must be Ayume Tadashi the manager said you'd be staying with us" Ayume nodded and followed Tessai into the shop discarding her shoes at the door.

He led her into a room with a simple table and the red headed shinigami she recognised to be from the class she had taught, Tessai looked at her then spoke "please take a seat the managers a bit busy with another guest at the moment but he'll see you soon Tadashi san".

Ayume smiled putting her bag in the corner of the room "sure tell him to take his time" she replied looking to see if anything had changed in the room in the last two decades since she'd last entered this store.

Ayume took a seat and looked at the other shinigami, he was obviously no longer in his gigai, he noticed her looking at him "hey you work at Karakura high you were teaching us computing today" he blurted out surprised to see her and that she could see her.

She sighed "yeah what's it to you" she demanded, he looked at her noticing the change in personality "how do you know Urahara san?"

She was about to answer when Kisuke entered the room clad in his usual clothes and stupid bucket hat 'he never changes does he' Okami remarked, Ayume nodded in agreement "oh freeloader san I see you've already meet Ayume san" Kisuke said.

Renji looked at him confused and was about to speak when Ayume interrupted him "Kisuke are you ever going to stop wearing that ridiculous hat" she commented, he shook his head "I really don't see what's so hideous about my hat you and Yourichi san both seem to hate it" he said looking hurt.

She looked at him blankly "oh good Yourichi has taste then" Ayume remarked, Renji sniggered at that comment and finally spoke up between the two old friends "uh just one question Urahara san how do you know the computing teacher at Karakura high?"

Urahara laughed "so Ayume that's what you do for a living if only Shunsui or Jushiro could hear that after that vow you made" he remarked, Ayume glared at him and at Renji "did I say something wrong wait you don't mean the eighth and 13th division captains do you?" he blurted out shocked.

Ayume was not to say the least amused "shut up Kisuke you've had your fun now and at least its better than your current occupation" she pointed out.

Urahara decided to stop laughing and replied to Renji's question "that free loader san is easy we're old friends back before I became a humble buiness man I was a captain of the Gotei 13 with Ayume san she used to be captain of 3rd division till about 30 years ago when Aizen decided to be a meanie to her". Ayume was glaring daggers at Kisuke now, some of her reistu was released in his direction, he flinched but otherwise did not react, Renji was staring at her in shock "you were a Gotei 13 captain" he blurted out.

She stared at him defiantly "and you got a problem with that Abarai san" she snapped at him.

He soon shut up to say the least, Kisuke decided to calm the tension "now now Ayume San don't scare the poor vice captain" Ayume sighed then let a bit of reistu at Renji's direction "say anything to Soul Society about this and you'll be faxing my zanpaktos Bankai got it vice captain Abarai"

And that's where I end this now remember to review and Ichigo was just a mention in this chapter but next chapter he's gonna be more than a mention. No flaming

Oh and the stuff in italics are either haned Okami speaking to her or Ayume arguing with Okami which is her Zanpaktou as it means winged wolf.

Oh and I decided to make Matsumoto a teacher as she really looks older than a high school student.
