OK so last chapter Kenpachi was OOC, this chapter he is still OOC. In addition, I would like to thank my two reviewers, Tuliharja and thablueGRRL, thank you for both reviewing all of my chapters and giving me some criticism. It isn't sarcasm since I asked you to tell me. I meant to put this in the beginning of the last chapter, I suck at making up my own names. However, I don't think the names are that bad, plus you will see why I chose those names later on. On with the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach, it owns me!

~~~~Pretty Line~~~~.

Ikkaku panted in exhaustion against a tree, trying to catch his breath. "Man, it runs like it's a cheetah or something. How the hell are we supposed to get our Lieutenant back?" He slides down the tree, settling on the ground as his friend came beside him, breathing hard.

"I don't know, but that feline sure can run. Ikkaku I am so tired, please carry me!" sighing dramatically Yumichika draped his arms around his friend, too tired to move.

Ikkaku tried to push him off, feeling Yumichika's dead weight on him.

"Yumi! Get off; I am not carrying your lazy ass around! " Ikkaku growled out. He finally was able to get him off, dusting himself off as he stood up again. "Come on, we have to find the Lt. She could be anywhere by now. Plus I don't want to know what the Captain will do to us when he finds out we lost her."

Both of them pondered on what would happen if the captain found out. Yumichika squeaked in terror as Ikkaku grew pale just thinking about it. Jumping up onto his feet, Yumichika stood by Ikkaku's said, determination on his face.

"We will find the Lt. Wherever she is…"

"Like maybe right here!" said a small voice.

Both of the soul reapers whipped around to see their Lt. standing right behind them. Yachiru smiled as she waved at them. "Hey ,hey Baldy and Beauty Queen!"

"!" both exclaimed.

"Oh we are so happy to see you again!"

"Why do you keep calling me bald?"

"We were looking everywhere for you! Where did you get the cat?

"I shaved my head bald; it's not that bad, right?"

"Did you find the captain, also I am not a Beauty Queen. Well maybe just a little…"

Yumichika pulled out a small mirror to check himself out. Ikkaku started to pat his head, making him feel insecure about his baldhead.

Yachiru giggled at the two's antics and shook her little head. "No, I wasn't able to find Ken-chan. Anyway, the kitty was nice enough to give me a ride to help me find him. Unfortunately, he had to leave to go off somewhere. I did feel Ken-chan's spiritual pressure at one point. That's where I was heading to when I saw you two." Yachiru smiled at them and hopped onto Ikkaku's head. "So, onward my bald friend! We need to find Ken-chan."

Ikkaku grumbled but complied with her wishes. Yumichika following along behind him, trying to fix his hair with the small mirror.

"Where did you get that thing from?" Ikkaku asked.

"Oh Rangiku-san gave it to me. She said they use it in the human world to look at their self on the go. She got it for me. Isn't that nice?" Yumichika smiled in delight.

"I swear sometimes you are a woman, Yumi."

"Hey!"

~~~~Pretty Line~~~~

Soon the fight wore down and the two opponents lay out in the ruined clearing, loss of breath and bodies covered in bruises and cuts; showing the aftermath of their battle.

Not one of them in an advantage of giving up. Frost kneeled in the river, her breath in short gasps from the exertion she forced out of her body. Kenpachi, a short distance away from her, sagged his shoulders, his captain coat long forgotten somewhere during the match observing her, the grin from before stuck on his face with humor in his eyes. Frost looked up at the man she not too long ago fought against. "I must admit, no matter how much I loathe saying it, but you are quite strong…even for a man…,"she gasped out, standing to her feet.

They were both tired and were low on their energy from the fierce battle they endured. She watched Kenpachi as he was watching her, his grin plastered on his face, acting like it never wanted to go away. "Heh, the same could be said for you…even if you are just a woman."

"What!" she screamed out in frustration. Glaring over at the man, she growled in anger at the insult he threw her way. "Are you insinuating that woman can't fight as well as men?"

Kenpachi grinned, finding it amused to get the young girl riled up. "Maybe, I don't really know since all I ever fought were male fighters. Not many females would want to get down and dirty. They worry too much about their looks and crap. Almost as bad as Yumichika and his beautiful shit, he spouts out just about every day. Sometimes it feels like I do have a woman in my squad every time I hear him, besides Yachiru."

Narrowing her eyes, she stomped over to him, ready to go for another round just to prove who the better gender was. "Yea, well men aren't exactly perfect either! You men are disgusting the way you never clean up after yourself. Always fighting for no reason and don't listen to a damn word people say!"

"Heh, yup that does sound like me. I like you more and more, you actually understand me." He said with small smile, looking up at her.

Frost blinked in surprise as she heard what he said. "What..." Frost moved closer to him, her hair falling down over her shoulders as she sat right next to him. "You are very different from most men that I have met and fought."

Kenpachi laughed loudly at the statement. "Most of the people I have fought never made it to the end; except for you and 2 other people that I had the pleasure of fighting earlier on in my life. Pretty shocking, but I want to fight them again, just to see who the strongest is."

Frost stared at the man and smiled at what he said. " Well, I guess that makes two of us huh?" She looked down at her torn clothes, pondering over what to say next. "How did you two meet?"she mumbled. Kenpachi stared at her form the corner of her eye.

"Who?"

"Yachiru?"

He sighed, and laid down, his hand holding his head as he stuck his pinky into his ear, looking slightly annoyed. "Eh...it's something I'd rather not talk about. Let's just say Yachiru is a special occasion…" he drifted off, staring out into the open scenery. Closing his eyes, Kenpachi thought back to the day when he first found Yachiru.

Frost studied his face, looking for any kind of clue to tell what he was thinking. "Well if you don't want to tell me I guess I can respect that."

The sky was darkening as nighttime was nearing and taking over the job of the sunlight. The sunset dimmed slowly and the creatures of the night were once again rising from the earth.

Kenpachi looked at the sun that was fading away in the night sky, and sighed calmly. Frost smiled and looked out in the forest as lights started to appear across the whole area. She felt Kenpachi tense at the sudden predicament, watching cautiously as thousands of lights lifted into the sky and then circled around the two people sitting in near the bank. Kenpachi glared at the strange lights about to get up and attack them until he heard Frost giggle from the side of him. He turned to her and stared at her hard.

"What the hell are you laughing at woman?" he snapped rudely.

Frost only laughed again and pointed to him. "You, what are you doing? You act like their enemies." she said. "They look like souls." he said grimly.

Frost looked up at him in wonderment as she studied him. She held her hand out as a firefly landed in her palm "Souls? Why would you think that they were souls? Their only little fireflies bugs."

Kenpachi looked over to her hand and grimaced at her answer and the bug crawling in her palm. " What the hell are fireflies?"

"Their bugs that let off light when it gets dark, little children usually call them lightening bugs because they look like little lightning's floating around." Frost looked up at Kenpachi, the fireflies floating around them without a care for anything.

Kenpachi looked at the bugs, trying to figure out something. "Strange…Yachiru would probably enjoy this though."

Frost blinked in surprise as she felt a little disappointed at the new name mentioned. "Who is Yachiru? Is she your friend?"

"Hmm….she is my partner and Lt of squad 11."

"Oh, I see. Well I didn't know you had a sub-captain."

"I actually have many subordinates, there is my second in command is Lt. Yachiru then the 3rd and 5th seats are the next in charge, which are Ikkaku and Yumichika."

Frost looked at him sighed. "You guys have a strange system but it looks like it works. But…why are you alone then?"

Kenpachi grinned and looked over to her with a gleam. "I wanted to know where I was before but you didn't tell me. I was separated from the everyone else even Yachiru, she always stays by my side, sitting on my shoulders. The squad and I were sent out into a mission from the old commander himself, we were looking for something, until we all were sucked up into this fucking weird place. I guess everyone was split up when we were falling down the hole that appeared."

Frost blinked in thought as she began to comprehend what he just told her. "How strange that is? Well you are in the Garden of Elysa. It is in the back of the castle, and it's quite huge. I can bet that your companions are around this place somewhere."

Kenpachi grinned at the news and looked up into the dark night. The only article of clothing left was his pants, the top part of his uniform ripped to shreds.

Frost's clothes were a little better, but still had some damage. Her shirt was torn in random places and a long tear starting from the collar of her shirt to her bust area. Her pants were in rips and tears, like a tiger went and played scratching post with them. Her feet were bare and un hurt though. Her copper skin was brightly glowing in the rays of the lights, as well as her silver blue hair, covering up about half of her face with long bangs that swooped down, her crystal blue eyes eerily showing brilliant light in them.

Kenpachi's hair was up in spikes, each one with a tiny bell on the pointed ends, his chest showing off battle scars, old and new. Muscles profound throughout his body as he was built to the bone.

Frost closed her eyes and leaned her head against his arm, tired and not even thinking about how he would react.

Kenpachi felt a pressure resting on his arm, looking down at her, although he didn't push her away. Instead, he pulled her closer to him. Frost blushed deeply at the gesture and snuggled up closer to him. He looked down at the girl who he was not too long ago fighting with; he smiled in complete satisfaction at the outcome of it.

Setting down for a nice little rest, he pulled her closer as he leaned back into the grass and drifted off to sleep in peaceful bliss, a small bundle cuddled up near him and the fireflies flying up in the night air.

~~~~~Pretty Line~~~~~
