"Did that hurt?"
Novio touched the bleeding wound in the side of his abdomen, wincing, as the rather large wound was sensitive.
"I'm so terribly sorry," Mizuki laughed, tilted her head back to stare at her opponent with glowing gold eyes. "But that was not even half my power. If I can hurt you that much on my own, I bet I could kill you with just shikai."
"You...You...You monster." Novio gasped, falling to his knees and Mizuki levelled the gun with his head.
"Yes. Thank you." She pulled the trigger and Novio blurred, reappearing behind her on one knee, blood dripping from a spot on his head.
"I missed. You're quite quick, you know. What do you call that technique?"
"Sonido." The redhead gasped, moving as Mizuki shot again, ripping his left pant leg from his body at the thigh.
"You should stop moving." Mizuki warned, moving the steaming pistol up and cocking an eyebrow, then turned the second pistol to him.
It fired, and the Arrancar vanished only to appear behind Mizuki with none other than Ichimaru Gin.
"Well, don't ya look fine~!" Gin cooed, patting the top of Mizuki's head. She glared at him over her shoulder.
"Ichimaru...What are you doing here?"
"This Arrancar left Heuco Mundo without permission from Aizen-sama, along with six others. Unfortunately, five of the others are gone." Gin pouted, still holding Novio's arm. "So, I'm takin' him back."
"You know I can't let you go without a fight."She pointed a pistol at the former taicho.
"Eh?" Gin tilted his head to the side and stepped backwards after tapping the air, straight into a portal. "Sorry, Zuki-chan! Hopefully, I'll see you soon! Bye-bye~!"
"Damn." Mizuki fell to her knees, the seals that had been released vanishing. "You okay, Sado-kun?"
"Hm." He nodded, helping her up. "What about you?"
"Pissed with Ichimaru, but that's to be expected. Now let's go. I want out of this damn dress. Everyone is gathering by Inoue's house. If you're unhurt, you should head back to your apartment. Hopefully, my gigai has started for Isshin's house. I'll see you tomorrow."
Mizuki watched as Sado stepped into his apartment and he shut the door before she started out for the rest of the Shinigami.
The skirt got in her way, so she lifted it carefully with one hand, and was still holding her shikai, until she tucked into the back of the white sash around her middle.
"Everyone alright?" She asked, coming to a halt and dropping the dress, which should have vanished by now. The Shinigami turned and Renji's eye twitched before he slapped a hand over his nose.
"Kawaii~!" Rangiku tugged on the hem of the European gown. "Where did you get this!?"
"That stupid Arrancar I fought was stupid and vain. He changed my uniform into this." Mizuki sighed, swatting away Rangiku's hands, which were too close to her large breasts for comfort. "Look, but no touching. And Renji,"
The redhead looked guilty, one hand still over his nose and the other tugging his kosode, a blush across his nose.
"You don't have to undress me with your eyes."
The fukutaicho gave a perverted grin.
"I can't take advantage of a lady." He snickered, bowing playfully. "So, I'll walk you back."
"Ichigo will be there." Mizuki snickered back, glancing at the ginger who was giving them weird looks.
"That's what I'm worried about."
"Tch. Ichigo knows better than to take advantage of me. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to find my gigai."
"What the heck was that!?" Ichigo stared at the redhead as the greenette Shunpo'd away.
"Eh? Nothing really. We do that all the time."
"What?" Inoue looked up from her healing of Rangiku's bruises.
"Yup. She's not a private person, so I can share this;" He grinned, a cocky look on hid face. "I'm one of the ones who took her virginity."
"TOO MUCH INFORMATION!" Toshiro yelled.
"What do you mean one?" Inoue lifted an eyebrow, making most eyes turn to her. "What? I'm not as stupid about sex as you think! So...?"
"I'm not telling you that." Renji laughed, and then began heading for Urahara's shop.
"There you are." Mizuki tsked, gazing down at the shy soul in her gigai, who was surrounded by several men who were groping her. Mizuki examined her, and then dropped down and entered her gigai with a sadistic grin.
"Look boys," She caught the hand of the largest man, who was going for her jean-clad ass. "I've had a rough night already. So fuck off, or I might have to take drastic measures."
"Come on, babe. The tough act is even hotter than the shy one. Come over to our place."
Mizuki sighed, and not soon after, all five of the men were lying on the ground twitching.
"That'll teach you to mess with girls at night." She sneered, stomping down the street.
"Onii-san~!" Yuzu yelled, throwing open his door. "Breakfast-"
She blinked, staring at the figure in her brother's bed, who was scratching their exposed abs and sprawled with only half the sheets on.
"Eh? What's Hayashi-san doing in Onii-san's bed?" Yuzu poked her shoulder and Mizuki shifted, opening one gold eye that was covered with her messy green hair.
"Morning, Yuzu-chan." She sat up and slid her legs over the side of the bed, tossing the covers back off her boxer-clad bottom. "What's for breakfast?"
"Eh...?" The dirty blond blinked and then smiled. "Oh! Come down stairs and you'll find out!"
Mizuki watched as Yuzu bounced out of the room.
"Oi, Yuzu. If a guy with feathers comes to the door, send him up. He's a friend of mine. He's gonna help me get ready for the day. And don't worry about Ichigo. He's spending the night with friends." Yuzu nodded, shutting the door as Mizuki grabbed Ichigo's comb and began doing her hair.
"Kurosaki's absent!?" Ochi blinked at her registar. "That's unusual...He never really does much during class, but for him to be absent like this...Ishida and Sado are gone too...And now Kuchiki!? Seriously, what's going on here? Allll-right! Time to start class!"
Tatsuki glanced out the window and Inoue sighed as a knock sounded on the door.
"Eh? Oh right!" Ochi bounded over to the door and pulled it open.
"I'm sorry I'm late, Ochi-san." The person at the door chuckled. "I was in the office."
"No! No! It's fine! Come in and introduce yourself!" The young teacher laughed, stepping back to her podium at the front of the class.
"Ohayo, everyone." Inoue glanced over and stiffened in surprise. "My name is Hayashi Mizuki, and I'll be the Teacher's Assistant for your class!"
There was no way that this was Hayashi-san; she was pretty, kind and hell, her breasts weren't bound.
Keigo stroked his chin, examining the woman as Mizuiro glanced up.
"I'm twenty-two," Mizuki continued, hands placed behind her back.
Keigo watched carefully as her chocolate button-up shirt pulled taunt over her pert but average breasts. Her long dark green hair was pulled into a ponytail at the back of her head with a white ribbon, and her long-sleeved shirt had it's sleeves rolled up to her elbows. A pair of large-framed glasses framed her unique gold eyes, and her lips were painted a pale coral. Her tight black shirt reached a few inches above her knees and a pair beige flats with tiny flowers on the toes. There was a black spiked collar around her neck with a dog tag on it and a bright blue scarf hung around her neck.
"I like drinking sake, and fighting."
"Does anybody have any questions for Hayashi-san?" Ochi leaned against her podium. "Yes, Keigo?"
"Are you single?"
"Hai." She pushed up the glasses on her nose with a smile. "Let's all hope we can get along, ne~?"
Inoue shuddered slightly, knowing the real Mizuki just a little better than this weird imposter.
"Right. Let's start. Everyone turn to page three-seventy-two in your textbooks and read the chapter. Questions one to fourteen should be complete by the end of the class."
Rustling filled the classroom, and Mizuki turned to speak to Ochi.
"Kurosaki Ichigo, Ishida Uryu and Yasutora Sado are on a retreat. They forgot to mention it to you yesterday."
"What? They are? Oh, that's okay then." She nodded. "Be sure to set aside the work for them."
"I will. Where shall I sit?"
"By the window in the back. That way if anyone needs any help, you can see their hand."
Mizuki wandered to the back of the room, smiling at Inoue as she passed her before seating herself in the back and crossing her leg over the other.
"Hayashi-san, can you help please?" Keigo threw up his hand, a sly smirk on his face.
"Oh! Yes!" Mizuki sneered internally, knowing that the boy wanted to check her out and not do his work.
However, her phone beeped before she could stand and the woman pulled it from her bra. A Hollow had been detected.
"Ochi-san, I have to make an emergency call, do you mind?" The greenette was gone before the teacher could speak.
Keigo pouted.
"I can't sense any trace of his reitsu..." Rukia crossed her arms over her chest, frowning at the darkened city. "Just where did you go, Ichigo?"
"I wouldn't be too worried."
Rukia turned, observing the woman clad only in a loose t-shirt and a pair of boxers.
"You know where he is?"
"I might." Mizuki shrugged, crossing her own arms. "But I might not."
"Which one is it? Why won't you tell anyone?" Rukia hissed.
"It's a se-cr-et." Mizuki laughed, darting back downstairs to wrestle with Isshin.
"Where are you, Ichigo?"
It was three days later when Mizuki got the text she'd been waiting for.
'We've started the process ~S'
She sighed, eyes closing briefly as she rolled her shoulders and turned to Yoruichi.
"They started. Let's continue."
Yoruichi nodded, swiftly blurring and attacking once more. Mizuki ducked under the kick and grabbed the woman's leg launching her into Renji who was attacking Chad.
"Renji, focus a little more. You have to sense the whole surrounding area!" She called as Yoruichi climbed to her feet, rolling her shoulder.
"I think I'm a little rusty." The purple-haired woman called, Shunpoing over. "Let's go bath in the hot spring."
"Eh, we've been at this pretty long then." Mizuki stretched her arms over her head and followed after Yoruichi.
Inoue paused, glancing behind her. For a moment, she had thought somebody was following her and she breathed a sigh in relief before turning and screaming, scuttling away from the large black canine that had planted itself before her, fluffy tail wrapped around it's paws.
"Bad inu! Don't do that! Where did you come from?" Inoue placed a hand against her chest, taking calming breaths as she continued to look at the black furred, golden eyed beast.
The canine stood, and strode several paces away and looked back. Inoue blinked, and the dog sighed, trotting behind her and shoving the girl forward with her head.
"Oh! I'll follow you!" The ginger agreed quickly.
The canine led the young female through the streets, pausing at street corners and then heading down alleys. It wasn't long before the two arrived at a large yard of abandoned warehouses.
"Why did you led me here?" The woman frowned, looking around.
The black beast nudged the golden barrier around the warehouse she sat in front of, pushing through and waiting on the other side once Inoue followed.
The canine led the woman to a large pile of rubble and blinked at her again before placing a paw on a button on the wall. The rubble shifted, revealing a long set of stairs.
Inoue blinked and started down into the basement with her companion following.
"Human..?!" The silver haired male at the bottom looked surprised. "And a wolf?!"
"So sorry! Where's the bathroom?" Inoue rubbed the back of her head. "That's probably not going to work, ne?"
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING, ICHIGO!"
"Kurosaki-kun!" Inoue yelped, flinching slightly as he landed painfully on the ground.
"Inoue!?" Ichigo pushed himself up and stared.
The wolf trotted down the rest of the stairs and the fur on it's back rippled before the wolf was standing on two feet, nude, and grinning insanely.
"Yo." Mizuki snickered. Ichigo went red and blood gushed from his nose as he fainted.
"Kurosaki-kun!?" Inoue rushed over, panicking.
"Hayashi-chan, what are you doing here?" Shinji narrowed his eyes.
"Visiting."
Kensei's eye twitched as he stared at the naked female.
"PUT SOME FUCKING CLOTHES ON!" He finally yelled.
"I would if I had any." Mizuki shrugged, moving to sit down.
"No!" Kensei threw his shirt at the female before she should sit down.
"Always reliable, Sei."
"Don't call me that."
"You know them?" Ichigo asked, finally having woken up.
"Maybe. Maybe not."
"Shinji...?"
"I'm not telling." The Vizard leader shrugged.
"Great lot of help you are. How the hell can you turn into a wolf?" The ginger-haired male scowled, pushing up into a seated position.
"Yoruichi taught me, while my brother was going through...special training." Mizuki trailed off at the end.
"Brother?"
"My twin."
"You have a twin!?" Mizuki was pretty positive that Ichigo was imagining someone with her looks, but male. He shuddered.
"You've worried a lot of people, Kurosaki." The green-haired woman shook her head. "You could at least tell everyone that you're going out for a while on a school retreat or something."
"Shut up."
"I don't think I want to. But I am hungry." Mizuki turned to Kensei. "Kensei, feed me."
"No."
"Don't you remember the bet we made? You still have about, I don't know, three months left."
"Fuck you." He stomped towards the stairs.
"Carry me up those. I don't want to walk up them."
"I hate you."
"You love me, Sei."
"DON'T CALL ME THAT!"
