The Vizords Revenge part 2
So Soifon's team was dispatched into the world of the Living the very next day. Soifon stayed behind with Omeada and ran the whole thing from the comfort of her office. She had a large map of the city laid out on her desk, ready to mark areas where the Vizords were seen. In her ear was a head-phone piece.
"This is Queen Bee." Said Soifon into her earpiece." Do you copy?"
"Red Pineapple." Replied Renji into his earpiece." Copy."
"Mockingbird." Said Izuru." Copy."
"Dove." Said Momo." Copy."
"Sparrow." Said Nanao." Copy."
"Isane." Reporting.
"Use code names!" hollered Soifon." I am Queen Bee, you are giraffe."
"G-Giraffe." She corrected herself." I copy."
"Swan." Said Rangiku." I copy."
"Good." Said Soifon." I hear all of you." She put her arms on her desk and looked over the map." The Vizords could be anywhere in the city so keep an eye out. You've all been given their descriptions, be on the lookout for anything suspicious."
"Yes ma'am." They replied.
"Go my worker bees, Go!" said Soifon in her earpiece and waving her arms. However she looked very strange standing there talking to herself and waving her arms. Omeada stood several feet behind her and watched the skeptical with confusion, in his hands was a tray of coffee. But then Soifon shot herself around and looked at him.
"What are you looking at?" she barked at him.
"M-Ma'am." Omeada stuttered." I brought you some coffee." He said extending the tray to her. Soifon reached over and grabbed one of the coffee's and examined it.
"That's back dipshit, I don't drink that." Then she threw the coffee into his face, causing him extreme pain but her great pleasure as he feel back onto the ground crying in pain.
Meanwhile back in the world of the living.
Rangiku was patrolling around the streets. She had seen nothing at all to report since her arrival, however that would soon change.
Looking out into the distance she could see something, or rather someone familiar. Walking across the street in the opposite direction as her was Shinji. She'd remembered his name, and if she hadn't she remember that haircut and smile anywhere. Walking behind him casually was Love and Kensei.
Rangiku pushed her way through the crowd to get a better look at the three. She got a clear view just in time to see them walk around the corner.
"This is Swan." Rangiku said into her earpiece." I have visual, and am in pursuit."
"Good job Rangiku." Said Momo's voice.
"Be careful." Said Shuhei.
"Proceed." Said Soifon." Keep me posted." Rangiku then continued on.
Back at the Squad two barracks Soifon stood over the map she had, arms crossed." Why can't you be more like that?" she asked casually turning to Omeada who had wrapped his face to help his burns.
Rangiku followed after the Vizords, always staying close enough to see them but just far enough so it wasn't suspicious. But if she remembered Shinji's face, she'd be in for a shock with who she's see next.
Shinji and company walked onto a street corner and waited for the crosswalk to turn green. Standing next to him was a woman Rangiku knew all too well.
"Tell your master." Shinji said to the woman next to him." That we need to talk, face to face this time."
Rangiku poked her head around the corner and was shocked at who Shinji was talking too.
"He's been expecting your message." Said Nemu." He'll expect you at around seven this evening."
"Tell him we'll be there." Replied Shinji. The crosswalk turned green and then he and his comrades walked across while Nemu stayed behind.
"I don't believe it." Said Rangiku in disbelief.
"Don't believe what?" asked Renji in her earpiece.
"Are you alright Rangiku?!" asked Isane concerned." What's happened?"
"Quiet." Said Rangiku." I'm following a lead." Then she moved into action.
Nemu turned and prepared to walk away, but then she bumped into Rangiku.
"NEMU!" she cooed at the former Lieutenant." So nice to see you, what are you doing here?!" Then Rangiku leaned down and hugged her.
"Rangiku." Said Nemu in an emotionless voice." How unexpected to see you here."
"Isn't it." Said Rangiku with a fake smile." I was just wanted to drop by and see what was going on here with you." Rangiku looked Nemu in the eyes, she looked fairly unconvinced." So who were those men you were just talking to?" asked Rangiku." Friends of yours?"
"Their business associates of my master." Replied Nemu.
"Business? What kind of business?"
"I can't say, I'm never told anything."
"What a shame." Said Rangiku putting on a fake pout." Because I would have really liked to meet them. They seemed fairly cute."
"If you'd like to meet them." Replied Nemu." They are arriving at our home tonight at seven. And my master has ordered me to invite you and your Captain should I ever see you."
"Great." Said Rangiku." It's a date then." Rangiku then turned and quickly walked away. Once she turned around the corner she quickly put herself up against the wall and began panting.
This situation was now beginning to unfold in front of her. The Vizords were clearly up to something, but what did they need Mayuri for?
"What do you mean?" asked Soifon into the speakerphone.
"I don't know." Replied Rangiku frantically as she and all the Lieutenants stood around one as well. "But it's bad. I don't know what's going on."
"What's Mayuri doing in all this?" asked Nanao.
"Up to no good, no doubt." Said Renji." I knew we could never trust that snake."
"Hold on." Said Momo stepping up." Mayuri is a friend of Toshiro's, you don't think he'd betray him would you?"
"Lieutenant Matsumoto." Said Soifon into the phone getting Rangiku's attention." You've figure out this info, so we're on step closer to finding out what's going on here. Worker bees, it's time for phase two." Silence followed after that.
"W-What's phase two?" asked Isane.
"One of you has to sneak into Mayuri's home and found out what's going on." Said Soifon." By any means necessary." Then she hung up the phone.
The Lieutenants all stood around in silence after the call ended. Then they all picked their heads up and looked over at Rangiku.
"What are you looking at me for?" she asked.
Needless to say Rangiku was the one they delegated to go into Mayuri's home and figure out what was going on. It was only natural, as Nemu said she was to invite Toshiro or Rangiku upon ever seeing them.
So Rangiku walked up to the home Mayuri had in the world of the living and knocked. It was almost seven, she hoped she made it in time.
The door was answered by Nemu." Rangiku." She said emotionless." So you came."
"That's right I did." Said Rangiku putting on a fake smile." So what's going on?"
"Come in." said Nemu stepping aside." My master is waiting in the kitchen." Nemu then guided Rangiku threw the home and towards the kitchen. Upon walking in Rangiku noticed that the area was dimly lit, say for several candles around the room. A long table was also in the middle of the room, so has to sit more people.
"HEY HERB!" yelled a familiar voice. Rangiku turned over to see Kiganjo running at her with his fist balled up and ready to swing. Rangiku shrieked and squatted down, covering her face. But Kiganjo stopped himself before hitting her.
Rangiku looked up relieved upon not being hit but Kiganjo looked at her confused.
"You?" He said to her helping her up to her feet." What are you doing here?"
"Well I-" began Rangiku.
But then she was quickly grabbed by the arm and swung around, coming face to face with Mayuri." WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" he yelled at her.
Rangiku shrunk down once again before replying." I was told I was welcome here at any time." She managed to say.
"How did you get in here?" asked Mayuri." Who invited you?"
"N-Nemu." Rangiku said pointing to Mayuri's daughter. He quickly cocked his head to see the woman in question standing casually in the corner. Mayuri then ran his hand over his head and sighed.
But then there came a sudden knock at the door and Mayuri's eyes bugged open in surprise." They are here!" he exclaimed." Go let them in." he said pointing to Nemu who immediately went about her duties." You." He turned pointing to Kiganjo." Hide her." He pointed to Rangiku.
She had little time to react as she was quickly scooped up in Kiganjo's arms and carried off. Mayuri stayed in the kitchen and took a seat at the table.
Kiganjo carried Rangiku off down the hall. He stopped once he got to the closet and set her down, then opened the doors.
"I am NOT getting in there." Rangiku said with authority as she pointed to the closet.
"I'm afraid I must insist." Said Kiganjo." The visitors can't know you're here."
"What visitors?" asked Rangiku. The two quickly perked up upon hearing the front door open and voices began exchanging.
"I'm sorry about this." Said Kiganjo as he pushed Rangiku into the closet." Don't make a sound no matter what."
"But what is-"
"Don't worry everything will be fine." Then Kiganjo closed the doors on her. Then he turned around and shuffled off, however the closet door was still open and crack and Rangiku poked her head out and began to listen.
At that moment Nemu led Shinji followed by Love and Kensei into the kitchen. The four stood there while Mayuri sat at the table.
"Master." Said Nemu addressing him." You have-"
"Leave the room." Mayuri quickly said to her, and without another word she was off. Silence fell over the four men as they all looked at each other. Shinji felt Mayuri was going to act like a good host and invite them to sit but it didn't appear that would happen. But for the sake of appearance Shinji gave Mayuri a nod to which Mayuri replied with a smirk.
Just then there came a thundering down the hall. Shinji, Love, and Kensei looked over to see Kiganjo storm into the room flailing his arms.
"HELLO HERB!" he yelled. And then he swung his arm back and then punched Kensei right in the face.
Later after the commotion had died down. The five men were now all sitting down at the table. Mayuri on one end, Kiganjo standing next to him. Shinji at the other end, with Love and Kensei holding a bag of ice to his head sitting beside him.
"Forgive my partner's enthusiasm." Said Mayuri to Kensei." He was just overjoyed to see you." Kensei grumbled and might have said something if Shinji didn't speak first.
"But that's not why we're here." He said to Mayuri." We're here to do business."
"Oh?" asked Mayuri sarcastically." Well state your terms and maybe I'll feel free to oblige."
"We're wondering if you'd like to join us on a small venture we're putting together." said Shinji. Rangiku perked up at this and leaned in to try and hear more. Mayuri only continued to smirk and rested his head in his open hand.
"How fascinating." Said Mayuri sarcastically." What kind of venture?" Kiganjo stood back casually and looked back at Shinji, ready to hear what his answer is.
"A venture into the Soul Society." Rangiku heard 'Soul Society' and tried to lean in more to hear.
"Not interested." Said Mayuri." I left that place quiet recently and have no desire to turn back."
"Fair enough." Said Shinji resting his elbows on the table." But do you have any information that might be useful to us?"
"What kind of information?"
"Information about structures like barracks and building blue-prints. As well as on any of the current Captains." Rangiku continued to listen in.
"Well I wouldn't have anything like that." Mayuri replied.
"But you are the most current Captain to leave the Gotei 13." Spoke up Love." Surely you must remember something."
"Sorry." Said Mayuri." But I don't."
"He's lying." Spoke up Kensei pointing a finger at Mayuri. But the former Squad twelve Captains seemed very unthreatened. Shinji patted Kensei on the back quieting him down before he spoke again.
"There must be something a man like yourself needs." Said Shinji.
"Nothing comes to mind."
"C'mon, everybody's got wants and deserves. Just name it and you'll have it." Mayuri did not smile but chuckled slightly at Shinji's comment. In the back of his mind he could hear a voice in the back of his head nagging at him.
"I don't think there's any way that you could get me what I want."
"Well what is it? Money, women, men?" Shinji shot off, but none of them appeared to entice Mayuri. Rangiku was listening in this whole time, but her hearing was off. She could only hear certain words and would then have to form the rest of the sentence herself.
In order to try and hear better Rangiku positioned herself closer to the closet door. But then she misplaced her footing and she ended up falling over. With a loud thud she hit the floor, getting everyone in the kitchen's attention.
"What was that?!" asked Shinji as she shot up.
"Go check on that." Mayuri ordered to Kiganjo who left in a quick hurry. Mayuri turned back to the Vizords who appeared disturbed by the sudden noise.
Kiganjo walked over and saw Rangiku face down on the floor. He picked her up slowly and whispered to her." I said be quiet." Then he placed her back in the closet and shut the doors. Then he returned to the kitchen.
"What was it?" asked Mayuri.
"A mop." Replied Kiganjo." Fell from the closet." Mayuri watched as the Vizords appeared to calm down and sat back down.
"Pray tell." Said Mayuri." What is it you want with information like this anyway?" Shinji looked him over, observing to see any irregularities in his body language here.
"Isn't it obvious?" asked Shinji." We plan to overthrow the Gotei 13." Rangiku sat quietly in the closet, and of all the things she heard that night what was just said she heard the clearest.
Mayuri nodded his head." Well." He said putting his hands on the table and rising to his feet." Good luck with that."
"So you will not help us?" asked Shinji standing up as well.
"I will not help nor hinder your quest." Then Mayuri stuck out his left hand. Shinji looked him over curiously but then reached over and shook his hand. A sly smile grew across Mayuri's face as they shook. But then they did released hands." Nemu will show you the door." Mayuri then waited in the kitchen with Kiganjo until he saw the Vizords walked out and heard the door slam behind them.
Then Mayuri turned and ran down the hall to the closet where Rangiku was. He quickly swung open the doors and stood over her as she crouched down." Heard enough?" he asked.
In the Soul Society at the Squad Ten barracks.
"Are you sure that's what you heard?" asked Toshiro as he paced back and forth. Soifon was nearby while Sajin was behind Toshiro. Rangiku was sitting before her pacing Captain." Are you absolutely sure that's what you heard?"
"I heard them." Said Rangiku." They were talking about invading and overthrowing the Gotei 13." The Captains all turned and looked at each other. Soifon turned and looked to Toshiro, waiting for his reply.
"Very well then." He said." We have all the information we need." He turned and began walking towards the door.
"So what's our next course of action?" asked Sajin. Toshiro stopped as he stood before the door, turning around and facing them.
"Apprehend the suspects." The Captains all cheered their agreement.
" Dead or alive?" asked Soifon.
"Either or."
"Dead it is!" Said Soifon . They all got together and followed Toshiro out the door as he led the way. Toshiro was leading his group into the world of the Living to capture the Vizords while he ordered the rest to stay behind in case of a counter attack.
In no time the information had circulated through all the Gotei 13 and all the way to the Head-Captain.
"It appears Captain Hitsuguya has done it, sir." Lieutenants Sasakibe said to the Head-Captain." His Lieutenants has cracked his case wide open and now he goes to deal with the problem himself."
Yamamoto nodded his acknowledgement but he had a thought rolling around in his head.
Meanwhile back in the world of the Living.
The Soul Reaper team sent to capture the Vizords was busy sitting outside the warehouse they called home. There were the three Captains and seven Lieutenants.
"They're in there alright." Said Sajin." I can smell them."
"We know their inside. But do you think they've detected us?" said Soifon.
"We can't wait to find out." Said Toshiro." We must act fast. Split into three groups. Soifon." He said to her." You cover the rear, Sajin the gates." Then Sajin turned the Lieutenants." Rangiku, Momo with me." Then he turned and ran off with the two following him.
"Lieutenant Ise, Abarai." Called Sajin. The he moved out with the three following him. Soifon turned and looked to see the only two left were Omeada and Isane.
"Alright dipshits." She said." Your with me."
Meanwhile inside the warehouse with the Vizords.
"Kensei." Called Mashiro." How much longer until dinners ready?!"
"Not much longer." Said Kensei as he stirred the soup over the fire. At that time the Soul Reapers moved into position, surrounding the Vizords.
At that time Rose walked over to Love.
"How is he?" she asked. Love cocked his head to the side and saw Shinji sitting there by himself. He sat with his elbows resting on his knees, but his head sagged. He looked as if he was in deep thought.
"Don't know." Said Love." He hasn't said a word since we've returned." Shinji continued to sit there, turning many different thoughts over in his head.
The Soul Reapers continued to look down at the unsuspecting Vizords. Toshiro cocked his head to the side and saw Soifon looking at him. She then signaled with her hand that she was moving in. Toshiro looked over and saw Sajin doing the same. Then lastly Toshiro made his descent down, Rangiku and Momo following behind him.
The Vizords were completely unaware of them, instead they were all focusing on whatever trivial task they were up too. Kensei cooking the food, Mashiro complaining to him about it, Lisa was over reading her magazine, Hiyori sharpening her sword with a rock, Love and Rose acting as bodyguards to the thinking Shinji.
Toshiro and his group made their descent, but then something happened. Momo lost her footing slightly and nearly fell over. But Rangiku was right next to her and caught her.
But when she fell she kicked up some rubble and that fell down and hit Rose in the head.
"Hey." He said turning to Love." What did you hit me for?"
"What are you talking about?" asked Love turning to him fully." I didn't hit you."
"Don't play stupid with me." Said Love standing up, holding his throbbing head." You just hit me and-" But when he stood up he looked up and saw something. Way behind Love nearly concealed in the darkness he could see three Soul Reapers. They were Soifon, Omeada, and Isane." LOOK!" Rose pointed out to Love, who quickly shot around and saw them.
"TWO ARMS! TO ARMS!" Love shouted. His call quickly grabbed the attention of the rest of the Vizords who all quickly stood up and looked around. Shinji rose to his feet and turned around to see his group.
"Ah shit." Groaned Soifon as it appeared they had been spotted." No use hiding now." Then she quickly jumped down onto ground level.
"C-Captain wait!" called Omeada. But Soifon kept falling and landed right in the center of the Vizord camp.
"THERE!" pointed Hiyori to Soifon. Soifon then ran by and began her attack. She ran past Mashiro who was facing the other way. Soifon ran by and swung her arm out and hit Mashiro's legs, sending her flying into the air.
Soifon continued on, jumped up and kicked Lisa in the chest sending her stumbling back. Soifon then looked forward as she saw Mashiro coming at her sword drawn. Soifon reached back for her own sword and pulled it out just in time to block Mashiro.
But the rest of the Vizords were gathering now, and circled Soifon. Shinji however had not moved and only watched on from where he was standing. The Vizords had Soifon nearly surrounded but then something happened.
Coming from behind them the Vizords heard a loud yell. They turned around to see the rest of the Soul Reaper party led by Sajin and Toshiro coming at them. The Vizords quickly turned, ready to face them. And then the groups clashed.
Soifon quickly kicked out her leg and hit Mashiro in the stomach, sending her stumbling back into the ground.
Omeada ran forward and swung down his sword, causing the mace on the end to come crashing down amongst the Vizords. However the group all managed to dodge, jumping in different directions.
One by one the Vizords began to clash with the Soul Reapers.
Love drew his sword and clashed with Sajin, the two pushing their swords together and grilling each other down. But with his great size and power Sajin quickly pushed Love back, sending him flying into a pile of debris. The former Squad seven Captain lay there groaning as his successor approached him.
But then Rose stepped up and blocked his way.
"Play." He commanded his sword and then it took the shape of a long golden whip and he swung it at Sajin. But Sajin swung his sword and hit the whip off to his right. But then it came back forcing Sajin to strike it again, sending it back once more.
Kensei stood with his knife drawn fighting against Renji. Renji swung down with his sword but Kensei easily blocked with his knife. The effortless Kensei lunged forward and managed to slash Renji across the chest, only cutting his robes. But then Kensei kicked up his leg and hit Renji in the stomach sending him back onto the ground.
Kensei heard something behind him and quickly turned around, just in time to block Momo's attack. The two stood there for several moments, eyeing each other down.
Soifon jumped out of nowhere and grabbed the back of Kensei's head, then she fell forward and brought his head with her slamming him to the ground. Then she quickly stood up.
"Grab him." She ordered. Omeada quickly ran over and bound Kensei.
Toshiro looked across the battlefield and saw Shinji standing by watching the whole thing. The two quickly caught eyes with each other and slowly Toshiro made his way over to Shinji, with each step increasing his speed. Shinji braced himself and put his hand on the sheath of his sword.
Toshiro was in range now. Shinji quickly drew his sword just as Toshiro swung down at him, managing to block his attack. Then Toshiro swung his blade around to his right, only for Shinji to block once more. But then Shinji stepped forward and swung at Toshiro with a head-cut. Toshiro quickly ducked out of his way and then shot his blade up at Shinji's stomach.
Shinji quickly jumped back, dodging the blow. But Toshiro was persistent and kept on him. He jumped in the air and came down swinging at Shinji.
Rangiku at that point looked over and saw Sajin fighting both Rose and Love. Sajin swatted away Rose's whip and then immediately had to defend himself from Love who jumped out at him. Rangiku knew she had to do something, so she quickly ran over to try and help.
But then Hiyori jumped out and grabbed onto Rangiku, struggling at first but managing to take her to the ground.
"Geez your heavy." Hiyori groaned as she sat over Rangiku. Rangiku became extremely furious and swung up her sword, hitting Hiyori in the head with her hilt."AH!" groaned Hiyori after the impact and stumbled back. Then Rangiku got to her feet.
"Growl!" she yelled. And her sword turned into ash and shot at Hiyori. It hit her dead on and hit her into the wall nearby where she lay unconscious. Seeing her laying there Rangiku quickly moved over to help Sajin.
With everyone else running around and getting captured Lisa didn't know what to do. So she did the only logical thing, run.
She dodged left and right hoping she wouldn't be seen. But then she dumped into someone. Lisa stopped and then looked forward seeing a close if not exact replica of herself.
Nanao and Lisa stood there looking at each other confused.
"Little Nanao?" Lisa said looking Nanao over. Nanao was about to say something but then another voice shot out.
"Over there!" shouted Renji. Then he and Omeada ran over and tackled Lisa to the ground. The two men grunted as they struggled with Lisa, Nanao watching on the whole time. But now all the Vizords had been rounded up and the Soul Reapers went about the task of lining them up.
Sajin walked over with Rangiku, he was holding a defeated Love and Rose in his arms. He placed them down amongst the other Vizords.
"Is that all of them?" asked Sajin looking at the group.
"Two of them got away." Said Isane.
"Which ones?" asked Sajin turning to him.
"The big round man, and the small green haired woman." Isane replied.
"IDIOTS!" yelled Soifon." Now how are we supposed to-"
"Relax." Said Sajin to her." We've got most of them, no need to worry about the stragglers just yet."
"Wait." Said Momo." There's still one more left, look." Then she pointed out the battle of Toshiro and Shinji.
The two jumped into the air once more and clashed blades. Then they turned and jumped at each other again. The stopped in mid-air this time, grinding their blades against each other. But after several seconds they disengaged and landed on the ground again.
They stood there panting, looking the other over. But then it became clear to both of them that they weren't alone. For in a matter of seconds the nine Soul Reapers surrounded them, all pointing their blades at Shinji ready to fight.
The last Vizord scanned his eyes around the room at all the different enemies around him.
"It's your choice." Said Toshiro grabbing his full attention. He looked over to see Toshiro had his blade pointed at Shinji." Surrender or stand there and die."
Looking around to Shinji it was an obvious choice. He lowered his sword and stabbed it into the ground. Omeada and Renji quickly moved in and restrained him.
Then that was it, the Vizrods had been captured. Next was bringing them back to the Soul Society.
Soifon opened the Senkaimon and then one by on the team of soul Reapers and their prisoners entered. The Vizords were all bound by their hands and then tied up together. Omeada was the one holding their rope.
That night in the Soul Society the Captains were called to an emergency meeting, one no doubt they could have guessed had to deal with the Vizords.
The Captains all lined up in the meeting room, unaware of where their party was along with how their mission went.
"Captains." Said Yamamoto said addressing the small group. All were present except the Captains of Squads 2,7 and 10." I'm pleased to inform you that the search party has returned along with the captured Vizords." The Captains exchanged nods of approval to each other." Enter." Said Yamamoto.
Then the door opened and in walked Toshiro, Sajin, and Soifon. Following behind them where the Vizords all tied together, the Lieutenants behind them.
The group walked into the center of the room and the Captains addressed Yamamoto. Toshiro was in the front before Yamamoto, Sajin and Soifon behind him and the Lieutenants were lined up behind them.
"Head-Captain." Said Toshiro." We have returned from our mission and were able to capture six Vizords." He turned and pointed to the Vizords.
Rangiku stood amongst the Lieutenants and leaned over so she could see Toshiro at the meeting. She smiled and waved at him but being that this was an official meeting he only acknowledged her by making eye contact. But then Momo jumped in front of Rangiku and waved at him. Toshiro did the same thing, only added in a slight wave, but then quickly turned back to the meeting. Rangiku turned and snarled at Momo behind her back.
"Six?" asked Bansui." Weren't there eight?"
"Indeed there were." Replied Sajin. Then he turned to the Head-Captain." Two of them managed to escape." Yamamoto listened while he looked the group of Vizords over.
"A minor set-back." Yamamoto said as he stood up."We'll have to go after them soon enough." He added as he walked towards the Vizords. At that moment Lisa picked up her head and noticed Shunsui standing in the room. The two made eye contact and then Shunsui turned and looked the other way. Lisa then turned from him and looked over at Nanao, still looking a lot like her." But you have most of them here, that's good enough for now." Yamamoto was walking around the group of Vizords and now stopped having come face to face with Shinji. But he had his face down, his hair covering his eyes. Yamamoto picked up his cane and forced Shinji to look up at him.
"Hello old man." Shinji said with a smile.
"Shinji Hirako." Said Yamamoto.
"I see you went through a lot of trouble to get a hold of us."
"Not nearly as much trouble as you are in."
"And what's that supposed to mean?" asked Shinji sounding unintimidated.
"For you crimes against the Soul Society." Said Yamamoto as he turned and headed back to his chair." And I think banishment won't do it this time." Then he sat back down.
The Vizords began to talk out and pull against their bonds. But with no effort on Omeada's part he shut them up.
"I think this time we might have to add some prison time." Yamamoto continued.
"No!" shouted Love." You can't do that."
"I'm too pretty to go to jail!" shouted Rose.
"On what charges?!" shouted Shinji.
"For your attempt to invade the Soul Society." Told Yamamoto.
"But how did you-" began Shinji but then he stopped and remembered his meeting with Mayuri." That bastard scientist!"
"I told you we couldn't trust him!" shouted Hiyori. The Vizords once again began to push against each other.
"For your crimes against the Soul Society." Said Yamamoto." I sentence each of you to one thousand year imprisonment, two thousand for Shinji Hirako."
"No!" yelled the Vizords.
"I'll get you." Grunted Kensei.
"Damn you YAMAMOTO!" yelled Shinji.
The Head-Captain then nodded to Soifon." Take them away." He said. She nodded and then marched off with the Lieutenants to put the prisoners away. The yelling and cursing of the Vizords echoed down the hall but eventually fell into silence." And that." Said Yamamoto pointing in the direction they exited." Is how you avert a crisis."
Soifon and Omeada then took the Vizords to the prison in their barracks. From there they locked each of them away in their own cell.
"Well this is just perfect, just perfect." Complained Hiyori, her voice echoing from her cell." Well Shinji, what do we do now?"
"This isn't so bad." Said Shinji nervously.
"Really?" said Rose sarcastically." Because this seems like two steps back to me."
"This is just a minor setback in the major operation." Said Shinji.
"Yea, instead of invading we got taken prison smooth." Said Hiyori. The Vizords now all spoke up, protesting against Shinji and his plan.
"This is insane." Said Love as he grabbed onto the bars of his cell and looked across at Shinji." We should never have listened to you."
"If I ever get my hands on you!" yelled Hiyori. Shinji quickly retreated back into his cell as his former comrades yelled at him. Everyone except for Lisa who sat quietly behind her cell.
The Captains had meanwhile been dismissed. But Yamamoto had called Toshiro to a private meeting in his office to discuss the events. Yamamoto pacing back and forth while Toshiro stood before him.
"Well done Captain Hitsuguya." Said Yamamoto." Due to your quick thinking and judgment we were able to capture several very dangerous criminals."
"Thank you, sir." Said Toshiro.
"You handled your teams perfectly, delegating tasks and seeing them fulfilled." Toshiro nodded his head." But there is one question I have for you."
"What is it, sir?" asked Toshiro. Yamamoto turned his head and faced him fully.
"Your Lieutenant was the one who uncovered their intensions didn't she?"
"Yes, sir."
"She's a remarkable woman." Commented Yamamoto.
"That she is."
"And she is your lover is she not?" Toshiro was startled by the Head-Captain's question and it was clearly visible on his face. But Yamamoto did not appear disturbed for have asking it. Toshiro cleared his throat trying to keep this as professional as possible.
"Yes, yes she is sir."
Yamamoto nodded his head. "And so my question for you Captain Hitsuguya is this. When the time comes and you are too take my position, what will become of your Lieutenant and Lover?"
Toshiro picked his head up and made eye contact with Yamamoto as silence filled the room. He did not know how to answer because he didn't have an answer.
