A/N I thank anyone who has taken the time to read this. Much appreciated.
Man, I swear, my writing's getting all messed up. I was writing like one of these little brats around here where the sentences didn't even make any sense. XP
Oh, yeah, same plot and all that. Forgot to mention that.

"We're gonna what?" Riko asked, holding a rag in her hand, seeing as she was about to wipe off the Taicho's desk.
"We're going to the Rukongai." Kenpachi said, staring at his desk with a lazy look in his eyes. He raised his hand and pointed at a certain place on the surface. "You missed a spot."
Riko mocked his words before wiping the desk with a scowl. Ikkaku and Yumichika were lounging on two of the couches, the third seat looking like he was about to fall asleep. Yumichika read a book calmly, looking up when he heard what the Taicho had said. Riko had been cleaning around the division. The last place she decided to clean was the Taicho's office, since they were usually out of there by the end of the day. She was wrong when she was walked in to see they were still lounging around like the lazy people they are. Even though she was relieved of her duty to clean the division she couldn't help but grab the broom and start sweeping everywhere. Some people called her a clean freak, but she'd flip off whoever would say that and continue on.
"For what?" Riko asked, nodding when she finished the desk and moved towards the bucket of water to clean the floor next.
"What do you mean for what? To kill hollows." Kenpachi said, his eyes glinting at the thought of finding powerful hollows.
"Who's all going?" Riko asked, holding the rag in her hand while turning to send the man a scowl.
"Everyone in this room."
She gave him a thumbs up before continuing on with her duty. Well, it wasn't really her duty; she just got tired of it always being dirty.
"When?" Riko asked, glancing at the intimidating Taicho with a frown when he put his feet on top his desk. "And put your feet down! I just cleaned that!" She growled, pointing at the desk with a snarl.
He scoffed. "Next week sometime, I'm still discussing it with the old fart." Kenpachi said, ignoring the glare directed at his feet, since he wasn't moving them. He frowned when she forcibly moved his feet and gave him a glare. "What?"
"I just cleaned it!" Riko yelled, holding her hands out towards the desk with a scowl. "Put your feet up there again and I'll... I'll hit you with a rock." She said, giving a firm nod and a smirk. At the confused stare she frowned. "I can't even cut you with my zanpakuto."
"'Cause you're weak." Ikkaku said, stretching out on the couch with a smirk.
Riko turned and glared at the couch before she walked over to it and grabbed the side, tipping it over and smirking when she heard a 'thud' and a curse. She set the couch back, turning and placing her hands on her hips. She pointed towards the door, silently telling them all to get out, since it was usually the office where she finished cleaning. Kenpachi rolled his eyes and snorted. He went there and did what he wanted. He told her his plan for the five of them next week. He stood up and rubbed the side of his neck, heading for the door and feeling Yachiru jump onto his shoulder. Ikkaku and Yumichika got up, both sighing and heading for the exit.
The violent woman growled when Kenpachi ruffled her hair, turning to glare after the Taicho. When the door shut behind them she sighed out of relief and cracked her knuckles. Now, to finally clean.
"Riko~!"
"Oh, no." She murmured, lowering her head and scowling while she glared ahead.
The door to the office slid open, there standing a small woman with a wide smile on her face. Sakura Aina, Riko's "friend" and the... former... stalker of Zaraki Kenpachi. Two years before, now close to three years, the Taicho and his friends had offered her to stop cleaning as her punishment for punching anyone that touched her. Of course she agreed without listening, if it meant she didn't have to clean anymore. But they had said she had to pose as... the Taicho's "girlfriend" to drive Aina away. The most embarrassing months she had to endure. They hated every moment together and tried keeping quiet with how much they hated one another. Tried. But after an incident, after getting very pissed off with Aina, Kenpachi had... kissed her... in front of a big crowd.
Then after that it just started making Riko crazy. She didn't know what to do, so she endured it all while blushing every time he did something to her. She never wanted to beat his ass more than those months. Now, they were pretty civil with one another... a little. They were awkward with each other after the incident with her family. Since the woman she viewed as a mother said that they loved each other and should get married, loudly.
They couldn't even look each other in the eye for a few long months.
But they were good now.
"Aina." Riko grunted, crossing her arms over her chest and sending the woman a blank stare.
"Riko, I need you to come with me." Aina said, sending the woman a bright smile. Before the taller of the two could ask she continued. "I'm going to a meet 'n greet set up by the shinigami women's association in two weeks and I want you to come with me~!" She said, meeting a flat stare that made her furrow her brows and pout. "What?"
"...What the hell's a meet 'n greet?" Riko asked, quirking a brow with a frown.
By the wide smile on the small brunette's face Riko had to guess she wasn't going to like it.
Kayo moved awkwardly, staring at her feet as her body moved to the music playing. Matsumoto danced beside her, a bright smile on her face. Hitsugaya watched them with a blank look on his face from the door. They both glanced at each other and smiled brightly, the twins both dancing on the other side of the room with wide grins on their faces. He sighed and rolled his eyes, looking to the side for a moment before he looked back towards the small group. Why were they dancing when they should be working? He walked further into the room, opening his mouth to order all of them to go back to work when Seika grabbed his hands and started spinning around with him, ignoring the wide-eyed stare she received from him.
"Dance, Taicho~!" Renta yelled, grinning widely the entire time he danced.
"Stop!" Hitsugaya snapped, shoving the woman away and wiping his hands like she was infected. "What are you doing?" He turned and gave the group a firm stare.
"Dancing." Renta answered. "Are we not supposed to?"
"What do you think?" Hitsugaya asked, scoffing lightly and rolling his eyes before looking back... to see his third seats dancing. "No, you are not supposed to be dancing!" He snapped, seeing the two pause before sagging.
He shook his head and ran a hand down his face. He honestly did not know why he put up with them. It would be better if he transferred them out. He suddenly went silent, staring intently at the third seats. The twins glanced at each other and frowned before looking back at the prodigy, unnerved by how he was staring at them. He shook his head and gave them another glare.
"Go to work." Hitsugaya ordered, pointing towards the exit.
"Aw." Renta lowered his head and sulked towards the door, sending puppy-dog eyes towards the Taicho.
Hitsugaya paid him no mind.
"Taicho!" Seika yelled, holding up a hand dramatically, and in the moment of... comedy thunder and lightning went off in the background. The Taicho frowned in confusion at the theatrics. "We are performing for a duet of..."
She paused when she saw the blank look Hitsugaya sent her, not believing a word she was saying. She sagged and walked after her brother, making the Taicho shake his head. He looked at his fukutaicho, seeing her blink before smiling widely. He gave her a hard stare in return, narrowing his eyes slightly. Matsumoto pouted before she sighed dramatically and nodded, walking past the Taicho to head to the office. If he didn't follow, she could slip awa- Oh, darn, he's following. She huffed when Hitsugaya followed her, his eyes trained onto her. He was used to her running away from work.
Kayo bent over the stereo, furrowing her eyebrows. How does she turn it off? She tilted her head before she pushed a button, jumping violently when the volume turned up. Oh, god! She started pushing all the buttons, her eyes wide with panic. It wasn't turning off! She grabbed the plug and yanked it out of the wall, letting out a sigh of relief when it fell silent. She blinked when she heard a chuckle, turning to see Hitsugaya staring at her. Her eyes grew wide, her face flaming bright red. He saw her.
"Shigeko, you- MATSUMOTO!" Hitsugaya yelled, seeing his fukutaicho run down the hall.
He curled his fingers into fists and gritted his teeth. That woman...!
When Kayo had been recruited into his division... he didn't really take notice. She was so quiet everyone didn't know who she was. Until everyone started noticing she was the fukutaicho's new hugging toy. Everything she did seem to set Matsumoto off and she would be struggling to try and breathe, which meant trying to push the voluptuous woman away and that didn't work most of the time. Then the twins came along for the events... That was a chore. He had to constantly order all three to stop hugging the petite woman.
He had been confused throughout the whole thing. Every single time Kayo sent him a smile his face would grow hot and he didn't know why, he had thought he was getting sick. Of course he knew what Matsumoto was trying to do with them both. She wasn't as inconspicuous as she thought she was. She thought he would be less intense about work if he was in a relationship. Fat chance. Then they went too far when they went on vacation in the World of the Living. Really... Tripping him in front of Kayo, and because they were almost the same size they accidentally kissed, was so cliché. He had never been so enraged in his life. Nor were Kayo's friends, but he didn't really care at the time.
And slowly they were getting used to being in each other's presence. But he, not used to the whole thing, panicked and said he had tired of the way she couldn't stand up for herself. Unfortunately she had heard him. They were uncomfortable with each other, until her friend went missing. And amazingly, it was she that suggested they try out a relationship.
"Hitsugaya Taicho?"
He jumped and widened his eyes slightly when he was knocked out of his thoughts. Kayo stared at him with curious eyes, holding the stereo in her arms to bring it back to Renta's room. He had gone quiet and looked ahead with a serious look on his face. She didn't notice until she lifted the stereo with a small device on it called an... "I-pod." He cleared his throat and nodded.
"You may carry on, Kayo." Hitsugaya said, closing his eyes and nodding.
Kayo blinked before she smiled, walking towards the white haired Taicho and kissing his cheek. His eyes snapped wide open, blushing profusely.
"We're on duty, Hitsugaya Taicho." Kayo said, giving a bright smile before heading out of the room.
He blinked before he looked to the side with a frown. He did tell her not to call each other their given names when on duty. He cleared his throat before he turned to go on the hunt for his fukutaicho. When he finds her he's going to tie her to her chair.
Kido went across the training grounds and hit the edge of the target.
Kaori panted heavily, holding up her hand and stumbling to the side. She was getting better with forty-level kido. It was still hard, though. She figured she'd be able to master forty-level kido in five or ten years. If she kept training every day. But if she could at least get as great as Kuchiki Taicho that would be a dream. She smiled to herself as she thought of herself as the greatest kido master. But as she said it was a dream. It'd take hundreds of years to get as good as a Taicho. She took a deep breath and bent down to sit cross-legged. She leaned back on her arms and gazed at the sky tiredly. She fell back and spread her arms, closing her eyes and staying still.
You're so lazy.
Shut up.
The redhead scowled when she heard her zanpakuto. She was not lazy. Just tired. She crossed her arms behind her head and stretched out her legs, letting out a yawn. She may have not been training long, but it was good enough for her. She opened her eyes lazily, staring at the person staring down at her for a moment before her eyes snapped wide open.
She screamed.
Byakuya blinked before he rolled his eyes, having seen the woman sit up, turn, and back away quickly. He looked back, seeing the redhead's arm in front of her, like she was expecting him to hit her. She paused when she saw him, blinking before scowling and pushing herself to a stand. She dusted her hakama and pointed at him.
"...Your face is scary." Kaori said, receiving a flat stare in return. "So, uh, what's up?" She asked, sending the man a smirk.
"What are you doing?" Byakuya asked, sending the woman a small smile.
"Training." Kaori answered, grinning widely when she saw the smile. "See? Look! I'm making you smile like that~!" She snapped her fingers with excitement in her eyes.
"Yes, you are." Byakuya said, nodding slightly before he cleared his throat lightly. "Would you like to go for a midnight walk with me?"
"Yep~!" Kaori said, extending her thumbs. "What time?"
"Midnight."
"Oh, yeah, sorry. I meant where do we meet up?"
"At my manor."
"Okay~!" Kaori nodded with a smirk. The Taicho nodded and turned, making the redhead look up in thought. "Three hours..." She murmured, turning with fire shining in her eyes.
She held her hands out, determination burning in her eyes. Her reiatsu started rising, opening her mouth to start chanting with narrowed eyes. Now to try and use a sixty-level spell. If it explodes in her face... Well, she hoped some people would show up at her funeral. She snorted at the small joke before she opened her mouth once more.
"Sprinkled on the bones of the beast!" Kaori yelled, her eyes starting to glow. "Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring! Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm! The sound of warring spears fill the castle!" She looked up and gritted her teeth, holding both her hands out. "Hado sixty-three, Rai-"
"Hey." Riko said, suddenly appearing in front of the redhead with a smirk.
Kaori screamed loudly in surprise, her kido depleting from her palm. She watched as the light died down before she sent the taller woman a dark glare. Doesn't she know how dangerous that was? Surely she would have sensed her attempting to use high level kido! She stared at the amused look on the violent woman's face, blinking several times before she scowled. She knew she was trying to use kido! She crossed her arms like a child and pouted, which had Riko snickering.
"Why are you here?" Kaori asked, slightly glad that she didn't finish that kido.
It might have exploded.
Riko continued grinning, which made the redhead frown before she sent her a suspicious stare. The tall woman gave a somewhat nervous chuckle, which of course made Kaori all the more suspicious. This wasn't like Riko... unless she was planning to kill her. She paused before shaking her head at the idea. Nah.
"Uh... I want you to come with me to this... thing in two weeks."
That didn't sound good.
"Thing?" Kayo asked, blinking curiously with large eyes, staring at the two women.
Riko was giving a nervous grin while Kaori glared straight ahead with a scowl. Oh, the little blonde wasn't going to believe where Riko wanted them to go. She crossed her arms and looked away with a huff. She closed her eyes while Riko reached back and scratched the back of her head, which made Kayo furrow her eyebrows and tilt her head.
"Uh... ever heard of a meet n' greet?"
"...Where people meet other people?" Kayo asked, guessing based on the name.
"Kinda like that," Riko said, nodding and pointing at the small woman, like she had almost gotten it right. "But, uh... you have to go to this thing... with the intent... to try and get... a date..." She murmured quietly, looking to the side slowly.
"What?" Kayo asked, stepping closer to try and hear the woman better.
"People go to this thing to meet people and form... romantic relationships if they find the person they like." Kaori said, her scowl growing at the thought of joining this thing.
Kayo's eyes snapped wide open before she sent the tall woman a horrified stare. Riko's eyes slowly strayed from hers, her frown growing when she saw the desperate questioning in the small woman's eyes. It's not like she wanted to go. Aina said she wanted to go and meet someone since she couldn't keep a steady relationship since... well, yeah. She said none of the boyfriends she had since that incident haven't kept her attention.
Said she wanted someone that can freeze anyone on spot with a look.
She snorted and rolled her eyes. Like there was a guy like that. It'd be a million years before she can find anyone that can scare people with only a look. Except Zaraki Taicho... and the Soutaicho... and Kurotsuchi Taicho... and Kuchiki Taicho... and Hitsugaya Taicho when he gets mad... There were a bunch of people like that, but she doubted Aina would like them. Maybe. That woman was irritating when it came to men. Boy crazy is what they call them in the World of the Living? If it was then she was definitely boy crazy.
"Uh..." Riko started grinning once more, trying to ignore the two glares she was receiving(amazingly, Kayo was glaring at her). "It's uh..."
"It's stupid." Kaori said, continuing to glare at her friend. "All three of us are in relationships, even though we don't say it out loud," She murmured, looking to the side with a blush, the other two blushing in embarrassment. "So why would we even go?" She asked, placing her hands on her hips.
"'Cause I don't wanna go alone." Riko deadpanned, sending them a blank stare.
Silence enveloped all three.
Kaori and Kayo stared at the woman incredulously, both their eyes wide. What? She wanted them to go with her because she didn't want to go alone? The redhead sighed and rubbed the side of her head while Kayo closed her eyes and lightly shook her head, like she was hopeless. That made the tall woman frown when she saw the look they gave her. She suddenly smirked, which made both the other women narrow their eyes and stare at her suspiciously, leaning back when she leaned closer. They were starting to get unnerved when her smirk soon turned into a toothy grin.
A grin that promised pain.
"If you don't come with me," Riko narrowed her eyes as her face grew dark, her face ominous with that grin. "I'll tell your Taichos that..." She whispered close to them.
The redhead and blonde leaned back and gawked at their friend in shock, seeing her smirk widen in satisfaction, like she had won the argument. Which was true. Like they were going to let her tell the Taichos... that! They sagged and slowly nodded, which made the tall woman narrow her eyes and grin devilishly. The small blonde jumped when Seika hugged her from behind, turning to look up with a curious look on her face. Riko blinked lazily, used to see Kayo jumped by the twins while Kaori chuckled with a smirk.
"Hi, Kayo-chan~!" Seika yelled, giving a wide grin. "Taicho wants you." She said, sending the small blonde a coy smirk.
Kayo blushed lightly and lowered her gaze to the ground before she nodded, bowing to all three women before she turned to head for the division compound. Seika crossed her arms and gave a wide grin. She may be scared of Kayo's tall friend, but it still amazed her that she was strongest of the two. Since a third seat can beat a ninth seat into the ground without any trouble. She froze when she felt someone glaring at her, turning to see Riko's dark glare as if she knew what she was thinking.
"So, uh..." Seika looked to the side with a frown before her gaze slowly went back to the tall woman. "How...How is your brother... something Zenaku?" She asked, her face slowly turning red when she remembered what he had to her.
Riko blinked and frowned. "How would I know? I can't even go see them. But if they're still alive they're fine." She said, looking to the side with an amused grin on her face.
"...Is he a pervert?"
"...How should I know?" Riko asked, sending the woman a suspicious stare. "Why're you asking about him anyway?"
"I'm not!" Seika yelled, waving her arms wildly with a grin on her face. "Gotta go! Bye~!" She yelled, turning and bolting away.
Riko made a face, turning to stare at her redheaded friend in questioning. Kaori shrugged in response. It's not like she knew either.
Inside the division, Seika scowled and punched her own hand. Dammit! Now she didn't know what the hell that stupid son of a bitch was doing! She grumbled to herself as she stalked down the hallway. She had tried seeing him a couple months after he got thrown in there to tease him about being stuck in there, but they said she couldn't! Stupid bastards. So she thought that maybe they'd allow the person they worked really hard to get out of the Seireitei. Which didn't work. Shinigami were too much for them, she thought smugly. Even though... they were shinigami before, as well.
"How's it going?" Renta asked, walking down the hallway with a grin and an armful of paperwork.
"Bad!" Seika snapped, turning to send her brother a glare. He blinked and tilted his head, raising his eyebrows slightly to show he was listening. "I can't see that little son of a bitch...!" She growled, shaking in anger and growling to herself.
Renta blinked once more. "You mean that guy in jail?"
"Yeah!"
"The one that made lewd comments to you?"
"Yeah!"
"The one that cupped your breasts?"
"Y-Yeah!"
"The one that kissed you?"
"...Yeah!"
"The one that beat our asses so hard into the ground that it was so pitiful for us that-"
"Okay, I get it." Seika said, sending her brother a flat stare.
"I don't know why you're obsessing about him." Renta said, sending his sister a confused stare. "He only did those things 'cause you tempted him."
"Yeah, with this awesome figure~!" Seika yelled, giving a wide grin while holding her arms out.
"...That's gross." Renta said, sending his sister a blank stare. "Well, what's your plan for when he comes out?" He asked, looking to the side and murmuring it was going to be a while until they got out.
"Seduce him and tell him he can't have this." Seika said, holding her arms out once more with a dark glint in her eyes.
"I... I... I don't see how this benefits you." Renta deadpanned.
Seika grinned widely and leaned towards her brother. "I seduce him so much that he'll go crazy with want and when I don't give him what he wants he'll be so depressed he'll kill himself!" She yelled, cackling manically to herself.
Renta stared at his sister for a long time before he slowly rolled his eyes and looked to the side.
His sister needs help.
Kayo jumped violently when Renta appeared out of nowhere.
He grinned apologetically while Kayo sighed and put her hands on her chest to steady her heart. Why did people that have higher seats have to show up out of nowhere? She pouted and gave the man a glare, seeing him rub the back of his neck and furrow his eyebrows while chuckling nervously. After he and his sister and spoke, which was a very weird conversation, he went to deliver the paperwork to the Taicho. But as soon as Hitsugaya's eyes landed on the pile his face grew dark enough to make Renta want to shit his pants. So he set the paperwork down and got the hell out of there.
"Where you going, Kayo-chan?" Renta asked, sending the woman a wide grin.
"To see if Hitsugaya Taicho is still working." Kayo said, seeing the man raise his eyebrows a couple times, which made her pout and give him another glare.
She huffed and walked around him, still trying to ignore the way he wiggled his eyebrows after her. Really, it's not like she was going to seduce the Taicho. She froze and widened her eyes, gasping to herself. What is she thinking? Of course she wouldn't seduce him! Not in a million years! F-For one, he's a Taicho and has to keep working, a-a-and he's such an important figure if someone were to seduce him he would- AAAHHH! Why is she thinking like this? She turned and glared after Renta, pouting before she ran down the hallway and away from the perverted man.
Renta blinked obliviously.
In the office, Hitsugaya let out a tired sigh while he looked at the two pieces of documents. He looked up when he heard the door, smirking when he saw Kayo. Perfect! The small blonde had to blink when a pile was placed in her arms, blinking with large, confused eyes. What was this?
"I am sorry, Shigeko, but I need you to deliver this to the second division." Hitsugaya said, trying to get rid of as much paperwork as possible.
"Ah- Yes, sir!" Kayo said, nodding and turning to head for the door.
Can't disobey an order.
Even if she did want him to stop working, since it was going to midnight, it was his choice whether or not to stop working. She didn't know how long it took her, but she finally made it. She looked at the building with furrowed eyebrows. She was scared of this place. The people were fast, swift... Assassins! She paled with wide eyes. She had been offered to transfer to the second division a year before, but she wouldn't be cut out for it. She was fast enough, and she knew hand to hand combat, but her Zanjutsu skills were... a little behind. Plus, she didn't think she had the heart to... assassinate people.
She shivered at the thought before heading forward, seeing people glance at her curiously as they walked around. She had trouble sliding the door open, but thankfully some people were nice enough to open it for her. She smiled gratefully at the couple before heading down the hallway. Now... where was the office?
It was troublesome being in a division she didn't know.
She walked down every hallway, furrowing her eyebrows when she couldn't seem to locate the one room she was looking for. She had no choice! She had to ask someone for help. Her heart started pounding in her chest, even though she hadn't spoken to anyone. Still, the very thought itself terrified her! She gulped with large eyes before looking down the hallways for anyone. Oh! There's one! She turned and sauntered towards the woman with nervousness written all over her face.
"This is a pain in the arse." She murmured, looking through the paperwork with a scowl. "Why can't the others do this? Friggin' lazy ass punks." She looked down with a quirked eyebrow when she noticed someone standing beside her. "Yeah?"
"Uh... W-Where's t-t-the o-"
"Out with it!" She snapped, making the small blonde jump and widen her eyes.
"W-W-W-"
"Quit stuttering and get it out!" She growled, leaning towards the smaller woman and narrowing her eyes dangerously.
"Where's the office?" Kayo yelled, tears gathering in her eyes from how scary this woman was.
"Over here." She said, walking down the hallway and motioning for the terrified woman to follow.
Kayo's eyes were wide, tears running down her face. How mean! She whimpered as she followed the green haired woman, watching as she slid the door open. She said something and motioned towards the small blonde, watching as she ran into the room, set the pile down and bowed to the Taicho before she ran back out. She rolled her eyes with a huff. Jeez, it's one of those shy kids, huh? She nodded to the Taicho glaring at the pile before she slid the door shut, turning to see the small woman running down the hallway quickly.
Kayo had to stop and scream loudly when the green haired woman appeared in front of her.
"Miyagi Rai." She said, holding her hand out to the small blonde, making her blink with large eyes. "What's your name?"
She had to jump when she fell back, having fainted. She stared down at the unconscious woman before she looked to the side blankly.
"Sheesh."
Kaori grinned when she saw the Taicho in front of his manor, bowing down to the guards standing in front of the building. They didn't move, like they were supposed to. She rolled her eyes with a huff. People were so uptight nowadays. Not that she's old, just that she was getting tired of walking around the division while people held their heads high like they were so important. Though she supposed anyone in the Kuchiki clan was important. She raised her arm in a greeting when she saw Byakuya face her. A small smile crossed his face when he saw her, making her grin to herself.
She was still proud of herself for getting him to smile.
"Hey, Bya." Kaori said, seeing the man frown at the nickname she had recently started calling him.
Her eyes glinted darkly, holding her chin and grinning widely. Now, she had a new plan... she planned on... making the Taicho laugh. So far, for the last two years, she's only gotten him to chuckle. But this year... Her grin widened. She planned on making him laugh like he really meant it. She rubbed her hands together, her expression dark with mischievous. Unfortunately, Byakuya saw her expression. He gave her a bland stare, waiting until she snapped out of it so they could go on a walk already.
"Okay, let's go!" Kaori yelled, raising her arm in the air and turning to head for the exit.
Byakuya shook his head lightly at her attitude before he followed, a small smile crossing his face. That woman... Sometimes he had to wonder why he put up with her. He looked to the side and looked at the sky, snorting lightly. Well, people can't help but put up with people they "love." He had to walk faster to catch up with the marching woman, feeling the need to roll his eyes at the way she was walking. She wasn't ladylike in anyway. Though, he supposed he didn't care.
"Y'know, Taicho..." Kaori turned her head and sent the man a wide smirk. "It's okay to lau- AGH!"
She tripped, falling on the ground with large eyes. Byakuya stared down at the woman, watching as she quickly pushed herself up and dusted off her clothes, turning to look away from him with a scowl. He shook his head lightly once more, which gained the redhead's attention. She scowled and sent him a glare before she continued marching down the street, trying to ignore the way the guards grinned after them. They spoke quietly, after Kaori calmed down and forgot her embarrassment, walking down the streets in a long walk.
He had to say he was amazed with her.
She no longer just fell over and went to sleep.
And she had done that plenty of times two years before. It had been very strange to see. She did every once in a while, which would cause panic, but she would amazingly still be okay. Byakuya sometimes heard Renji scream when she would fall over out of nowhere.
They both stopped and turned their heads, hearing something scrapping against the ground. Kaori blinked, seeing someone walking down the street. She couldn't see who it was, though. If only the moon was brighter. She raised her head when she heard muttering coming from the person, seeing the person drawing closer and carrying something on their back.
"Oh, my, my... I'm lost. Onee-chan should have been here... but then she would be mad I got lost... though I suppose it wouldn't be my fault. I'm not used to walking around the Seireitei at night. But Kurotsuchi Taicho told me to go there. I should have left this behind. Ah, I suppose I am an airless idiot~! Hahahaha!"
A blue haired man walked into the moonlight, making Byakuya narrow his eyes when his eyes reminded him of the late Ichimaru Gin. He blinked and turned his head, staring at the Taicho and the woman, raising his eyebrows before he smiled brightly. Kaori's eyes snapped wide open, her jaw falling open when she saw the size of the thing on the guy's back. It's huge! How the hell can he even carry it? What... kind of machine was it, anyway? She continued to stare at the strange contraption while the man approached them with a wide smile on his face.
"Excuse me! My name is Fukazawa Satoru!" He yelled, bowing to the Taicho. "May you point me towards the twelfth division? I am quite lost~!"
Byakuya turned his head, staring in the direction. Satoru continued to stare with a wide smile.
"...Do you know?"
Byakuya stared at the man strangely, which meant giving him a glare, and raised his arm to point in the direction. He turned and stared in the direction with raised eyebrows before a bright smile crossed his face. He bowed towards the man, which was... pretty much the wrong thing to do. The machine on his back was extremely heavy, so when he leaned forward it made him fall. Which meant the machine was on top of him while he struggled fiercely to get it off. Kaori jumped and ran towards the man, grabbing the side of the machine and pulling hard. Byakuya wasn't doing anything.
After a few minutes Kaori finally managed to pull it off, huffing and puffing with wide eyes. The man stood up with a bright smile, completely unharmed.
"Thank you very much!" Satoru said, bowing towards the woman. "I am very sorry to have troubled you." He said, nodding his head before he grabbed the large machine(It was taller than them) and put it on his back.
Kaori gawked.
This guy's strong.
He walked down the street with a wide smile on his face, making the two nobles(though one was no longer a noble) glance at each other with questioning looks in their eyes. Satoru began mumbling to himself, furrowing his eyebrows and lowering his head while he hauled the humongous machine to the twelfth division.
"Takeshi is late... as usual."
Someone walked up to the eleventh division building, blinking with a wide smirk on his face. So this was the eleventh division, huh? He stared at the tall man smirking at the scowling woman. He raised his eyebrows when he saw the haori, his smirk growing. That must be the Taicho~! All the top seats of the eleventh division, with the exception of the woman, turned their heads when they heard his footsteps, all quirking a brow when they saw the height of the man. They stared at his dark skin and spiky, black hair. He rubbed the back of his neck with a wide grin on his face, all their eyes rising when they saw him drawing closer.
Shit, he's tall.
Riko blinked and quirked a brow. "Who're you?"
Kenpachi turned and sent the woman a glare, silently telling her to shut up. She nodded with a salute. Ikkaku quirked a brow at the tall guy, setting down his cup and staring at him strangely. This guy... is smiling too much to his liking. The Taicho turned and stood up, making everyone widen their eyes when the other guy was taller.
He had to be six foot... Well, he's taller than the Taicho, anyway.
"What?" Kenpachi grunted, sending the man a glare.
"Sorry, the name's Suzuki Takeshi, I'm a recruit here." He said, pointing to the building with a bright grin on his face.
Everyone blinked, all frowning in confusion.
"But... the recruits came here... two months ago..." Yumichika said, staring at the man questioningly.
He continued grinning. "I forgot to come back to the Seireitei~!"
They all blinked once more. Riko tilted her head and made a face, seeing the man continue to grin like an idiot. What...? He forgot to come back to the Seireitei? Who forgets to come back to the Seireitei? Ikkaku sent the man a blank stare, including the others, all watching as the man continued to grin. He looked down and raised his eyebrows, grabbing one bottle, which made them all stare incredulously, and downed it in two gulps.
"Thanks!" Takeshi yelled, either not noticing the shocked stares or he ignored them.
"WHAT THE HELL?" Riko yelled, standing up and sending the man a scowl, making him blink with a wide smile. "That wasn't yours!" She yelled, pointing at the man threateningly.
"But I hear it is good to celebrate with a drink for getting into the Gitei thirteen~!" Takeshi said, placing his hands on hips with a grin.
"IT'S GOTEI, NOT GITEI, IDIOT!" Riko growled, glaring at the man darkly, stomping straight up to the man and pointing at his face. "POINT IS, YOU JUST DON'T—"
Riko blinked before her eyes grew to the size of saucers, everyone staring in shock as this idiot... this fool... this retard... this fucking dumbass... groped Riko's breasts. They were all so shocked they stayed where they were, thankfully the fukutaicho passed out, the man blinking and tilting his head. Riko was shaking, her jaw hanging open, not even noticing when he removed his hands from her chest.
"They're small, but not that small." Takeshi said, shrugging. He wrapped his arm around her and gave a wide, toothy grin. "How about it? Wanna get together tonight?"
Riko snapped her head in his direction and gawked as her face turned bright red, her eyes wide with shock and embarrassment. In the next second, Kenpachi's sword was pointed at his face while Ikkaku and Yumichika tugged the man away from the shocked woman. He quirked a brow when he saw the blade, glancing at the Taicho and the woman. He blinked several times before it finally clicked, giving a wide grin when he realized it.
"I get it!" Takeshi yelled, holding up a finger in the air. He pointed at the two. "You two are togeth—"
"DUMBASS!" Riko yelled, kicking the man's face and sending him across the courtyard and into the wall, her eyes wide with rage and her upper lip curled in a snarl.
She ran across the courtyard and jumped the man, kicking his chest repeatedly while he continued to grin like an idiot, asking what he did wrong. All three men watched as she attacked the man until she was panting and wheezing, all watching in amazement as the giant scratched the back of his head with a wide smile on his face like it was nothing.
"Did I do something wrong here?"
"OF COURSE YOU FUCKIN' DID SOMETHING WRONG, YOU JACKASS!"
This was how they met them.
Little did they know... they were going to become great friends with the three people.
At the same time all three women shivered.

Author's Note

And I introduce three of my new OCs~! \ ( ^ 0^)/
Well, shitcakes. XP Someone frickin' reviewed one of those three stories. Ugh, man, I tell you, I just can't stand them right now. Heck, I can't even bring myself to read it again. XP I cringe every time I see that someone has favoured it, is watching it, or reviewed it. Now this may seem like a stupid question, but would anyone even care if I deleted them?
Oh, yeah. Hey, it's been a while... again. I would've replied to you, but... well, I just find it a waste of time. XP
You have no idea how long it took to come up with this. I wrote the chapter, but it didn't seem to... fit. So I wrote another one, but again it didn't appeal to me. So, I wrote another and came up with this. And I thought, "Ah, what the hell?" Who cares, right? Drawing is taking most of my attention. X3 It's fun~!
Ah, yeah. Is that thing still going on? With people deleting stories for graphic content, eighteen and above, all that stuff?
And man, I must've been away from long. Everything looks different to me. XP
Okay, originally had Takeshi's name as Raiden, but then I noticed it was way similar to Rai, which I didn't notice until four in the morning. Sheesh. XP
