Kumikos heart started beating a mile a minute, blush immediately flushing her face remembering the mortifying ordeal that had taken place the previous day. Kyoraku looking down at his feet sheepishly, raised his grey eyes to look into kumikos own surprised lavender ones

"may I come in?" The request snapped Kumiko out of her surprised daze

"yes, of course. Sorry". She rushed, remembering her manners, side stepping to let the big man past, gently closing the door behind her. Shunsui took note of the small apartment. Sweet lemon filled his nose, eyes catching the array of ingredients laid out on the kitchen counter. The rest of the room he could see was tidy, if a little bare.

"how can I help you?" She asked sweetly, eyes avoiding his gaze. Left arm coming up to lightly hold her right . Bringing his attention back to the woman, a smattering of what looked to be flour dirtying her pretty face.

The beautiful bouquet of flowers, held snuggly together by a thin satin ribbon was gently thrust her way. Gently taking the offered item, Kumiko brought them up to her face to smell the sweet smelling flowers, a smile playing on her lips

"for you" Kyoraku offered "as an apology for my actions yesterday" he explained enjoying the way she hugged them gently towards her.

"thank you,". She said, meeting his eyes. "Theyre beautiful "

moving past him to dig out the one vase she knew was hidden under the kitchen cupboard, Kumiko half filled it with water, before placing the now flower filled vase in the centre of her dining table.

"how are you feeling today?" Kyoraku asked, continuing on the conversation

"better" she answered, fingers nervously playing with the hem of her top. Stomach full of what felt like butterflies. "And you? Kiske said you were a bit upset last night"

traitor Kyoraku thought playfully at his younger friend "better now you're no longer crying" he affirmed "I'm sorry I made you shed tears" he added solemnly

"it wasn't your fault, captain, I was embarrassed and overwhelmed. I shouldn't have ran off like that" once again trying to take the blame everyone seemed to want to claim

"that's kind of you," he continued "but I'm still sorry" he added with a small smile

"you're forgiven". She laughed, eyeing the flowers once more

"did Kiske tell you about what we discussed last night? The reason for the captains meeting today?" He asked, bringing her attention to him once more, eyes falling on the smudge of flour still cutely sat on her nose

"yes we spoke, it seems my embarrassment will not be forgotten about like I had hoped". She chuckled, causing the man to gently rub the back of his head much the same way her blonde friend does.

"yeah I'm not much looking forward to it myself" he laughed, embarrassed "more than one captain will get their share of enjoyment from the telling off im sure to be getting from Yama-jii"

"I just wanted you to know, I won't be taking part in your new training urahara plans to put you through. I won't subject you to that again". He said kindly, shifting his weight on his feet slightly.

She smiled at that, weight lifted slightly from her shoulders at the worry she had not shared with her friend that morning. Glancing at the time Kyoraku groaned "I'd better head off. Don't want to be late for the meeting" taking the few steps to stand in front of her, he raised his hand to gently cup her face, thumb softly wiping away the flour on her nose. He leaned in, gently kissing her forehead, before turning around heading for the door. "I'll see you soon, miko-san" he smiled widely at her, before shutting the door quietly behind him. Leaving Kumiko standing alone in her kitchen/dining room frozen on the spot.


Urahara was Hastily walking, his nose buried in the papers in his hand, going over his own terrible handwriting trying to form the best way to address his fellow captains. Reaching the large wooden doors, gently pushing them open to reveal the other eleven captains, already in their rows.

"sorry". He said, closing the door behind him " am I late?" He asked of no one in particular

"no, urahara." The lazy reply came from captain Hirako, hands deep in his pockets "we all arrived early, desperate to see you arrive on time" Eliciting several chuckles from the other captains. Urahara shot him a look, taking his space next to Kyoraku. Quickly taking off his hat and shoving it into his back pocket.

"you ready?" Came the quiet question from his friend, Sugegasa pulled low over its usual place on the captains eyes

"as I'll ever be" came the hushed reply as the captain commander made his way into the room, taking his chair at the head of the captains

"the captains meeting shall now begin". His quiet voice still managing to boom around the room, demanding attention. "Captain Urahara has some information he feels needs to be shared. You will all listen." He ended his speech abruptly. Taking a deep breath Urahara stepped forward to address the room.

"the past week I've had the new shinigami , Kumiko Satsuki in my division. With my time spent with her, she has opened up and explained what the unique circumstances that were that led the captain commander to allow her to find herself where she would be best suited in the goeti 13" Urahara could hear himself waffling on, urging himself to get to the point

"it appears, miss Satsuki has a very rare and uncontrollable reaction to high spiritual pressure. Mainly those of captain level"

"what kind of reaction?" Came the questioning voice of the young captain Hitsugaya

"her reaction seems to be depending on the Reiatsu she is subjected too" urahara explained "myself and two other captains has experienced her reactions to our Reiatsu. All of them different with varying levels of intensity"

taking in a deep breath he continued on. "Mine being the first one she encountered, miss Satsuki was overcome with uncontrollable laughter."

"you sure she wasn't just laughing at your dopey face?" Came the tart response from captain kenpachi. Fighting the urge to roll his eyes, Urahara continued as if he wasn't interrupted. Talking over the laugh coming from Hirako.

"she had no control of it, only regaining control after I lowered my Reiatsu back down to an undetectable level. I had asked her if she would be willing for me to document her reactions to other captains, witch she graciously agreed to, despite her own embarrassment "

"I was there for that" Yoruichi chimed in " it did appear as though Kumiko has no control over her response" adding to the inventors credibility

"this led us to experimenting with two other captains, documenting her reactions." Urahara paused, figuring out the most gentle way to approach the next part of his speech " she displayed a similar lack of resistance to captain ukitake. Although her reaction was quite different. Miss Satsuki described a strong sense of protection coming from his Reiatsu, also unable to resist the pull she felt to lay her head on his chest"

glancing up to said captain, taking note of the discomfort in the man's face

clearly he's as worried as I am about the next bit of information, Urahara concluded silently, shuffling the papers slightly to gain some more time to think.

"who was the third captain? " asked an otherwise quiet captain amagai

"ah, um, captain Kyoraku," Urahara said dismissively " due to this we have come to the conclusion that..."

"what was her reaction?" Came another voice, snapping his head up to look at the speaker

"sorry?" he almost squeeked, trying to skip over Kyoraku all together to spare his friends the inevitable embarrassment

"what was the girls reaction to Kyorakus spiritual pressure ?" Captain Kuchiki demanded annoyed at having to repeat himself

urahara shuffled slightly on his feet, unable to see a way of avoiding the direct question. His silence lingered too long for the captain commander

"you will answer, Urahara". Came the soft command

Sorry shunsui, he thought sparing the man a glance, seeing absolutely no way out now

"she appeared to have a very intense, overwhelming .. sense of Personal? Pleasure? " he choked the words out

"pleasure?" Unohana asked him to clarify

"sexual.. pleasure" he amended fisting his paperwork tightly in his hands, get to the next point, he thought quickly " the reaction was quite debilitating for her, forcing her to her knees and unable to move, we later decided that.."

"isn't that a normal reaction for you Kyoraku?" Said Hirako laughing openly "girls falling to their knees in-front of you?" He finished to another smattering of laughter coming from some of the other captains

Urahara watched Kyoraku stiffen slightly at the comment, fists clenching slightly, hardly noticeable .

"enough" came the command from the powerful man sitting at the front, accompanied by a short bang of his staff on the concrete floor. Demanding silence. Urahara quickly hurried on.

"captains ukitake, Kyoraku and myself have spoken with miss Satsuki and have decided it is in the best interests of Kumiko and the other captains, that we continue to document her reactions to the remaining captains, And possibly some of the lieutenants , to avoid an unexpected reaction in a battle setting. I feel for hers and whom she is on a mission with, safety, we need to be prepared for what could happen" Happy he's gotten away from shunsui being the topic of interest, Urahara carried on, turning to the head commander himself

"I'm requesting that Kumiko Satsuki be temporarily placed in my division, while we gather all the necessary information, and so that I can begin to try and train her to be able to fight against the responses she has to spiritual pressure. Captain ukitake has kindly agreed to help me with her training, as we feel his is one she would most easily be able to push through, as to be able to defend herself if needed. " Urahara finished, waiting for the head commander to speak

"and why is it, YOU are the one conducting this experiment?" An indignant voice pulled his attention.

"pardon?" He asked captain Kurotsuchi

"I said, why is it you, captain of the 7th, conducting this experiment. The woman should be brought to the department of research and development for myself to study."

""she's not a lab rat you can dissect Mayuri, I am more than capable of documenting our findings, lest you forget who created the department of research and development " urahara said, allowing the subtle threat to deep through "we have already established a friendly working relationship, with mutual respect and trust, I see no reason to upheaval that"

"INSOLENT FOOL" Kurotsuchi spat back at the man. "I demand she be turned over to me to start my own dissection of her abilities "

"he said,". A calm dangerous voice came from under Kyorakus hat, raising it above his steely grey eyes "she is not a lab rat you can torment, Kurotsuchi"

"looks like Kyoraku isn't ready to share his new sex slave" Hirako sniggered in a mock whisper.

Urahara turned just fast enough to slam his shoulder into a murderous looking Kyoraku, cutting him off from taking the leap he was making at the man who just doesn't know when to shut up. Papers dropping from his hands, scattering across the floor below them.

"can it shinji!" Came angrily from Yoruichi, knowing Kyorakus reaction would likely cause the smirking captain to continue

"let them fight!" Came from a now interested kenpachi

"shunsui stop,". Urahara grunted, straining against the man hell bent on reaching the still grinning captain. Ukitake ran forward to assist the slightly struggling urahara, trying to meet his friend unwavering glare from his intended target

"Shunsui! Enough!" Ukitake said sternly to his over emotional friend. Chest heaving heavily, shunsui, stopped pursuing the object of his wrath, and choose to instead turn to storm straight out the door, the cry of "Kyoraku!" From his longest friend falling on deaf ears. The door slammed and echoed around the chamber

"ENOUGH". Shouted the head commander "acting like a bunch of children! You are the captains of the goeti 13, act like it!" He finished angrily as ukitake took his usual place back in line, sharing a concerned glance with a slightly out of breath urahara, crouched down picking up his fallen papers,

"urahara will continue to conduct his research. I want full reports of all encounters each captain has with Kumiko Satsuki, in a time frame you deem best. As well as weekly reports on how she is responding to the training of resisting her reactions. For now miss Satsuki will remain under the 7th squads captain. Kurotsuchi will be notified if the information requires his assistance. Urahara, I will leave it to you to inform miss Satsuki of my Decision today. Ukitake, im untrusting you to help urahara with his efforts. Other captains will comply with your research. My word is final" leaving no more arguments from the remaining captains

catching Ukitake's eyes, the captain added "you will see to it that that over emotional idiot has calmed down?"

"yes, Genryusai-sensei" ukitake confirmed

"you are dismissed" the final command uttered before he stood up and left the room through the door to his left, leading to his own private barracks.

"excuse me, Urahara-san" Brought said man's attention to the softly spoken woman before him, the first words she has uttered the entire meeting. ignoring the exit of most of his other colleagues, he gave her his full attention

"yes Unohana-san?"

"I was wondering about any damaging effects Kumiko-san may have to the exposure of spiritual pressure? Has she become injured at all during these episodes?" Unohana questioned kindly, smiling warmly at ukitake who has joined the pair.

"we've not noticed any physical damage to miko". Urahara pondered, looking to ukitake to confirm. "It can, however , drain her mentally and emotionally, and become physically tired at the responses she has. Nothing that a few hours sleep doesn't seem to cure." He explained to the healer

"if that were to change, send me a hell butterfly personally and I will come to assist. I see no need for members of my division to be made aware of her current situation yet. I imagine the less people who knows about it, would be beneficial for young Kumiko-san, no?" She finished with a smile

"thank you, retsu-chan". Ukitake smiled at the woman who's been a captain as long as he has . Giving them a small bow, Unohana excited gracefully from the hall.

"damn that shinji" Yoruichi said to the last two captains, resting a hand on her hip "never knows when to shut his damn mouth"

"he does have a talent for getting on every single one of a persons last nerves" ukitake agreed

"quite the response from shunsui though," she added thoughtfully "I don't think I've ever seen him mad, let alone have to be held back from pummelling someone".

"it was quite a touchy subject" urahara offered, digging out his hat to once again cover his unruly hair. "It really upset him that his Reiatsu caused miko such a negative response "

"negative?" She asked "I thought it made her really horny?" Not understanding the correlation between the pleasure they said she felt to upsetting shunsui

"really horny in front of three of her superiors? She was incredibly embarrassed, Yoruichi. Not everyone is as unashamed of public displays of sex as you are, you damn voyeurist" urahara laughed lightly at his friends unashamed shrug

"she was very upset by the whole thing" ukitake added " which in turn upset Kyoraku. He never did find it easy to be the cause of a young womans tears"

"yeah I can see that." She conceded "if I were the one to experience such pleasure though someone's spiritual pressure, though, I would be excited to find out how great it felt if he released it during sex." She added playfully, turning to leave "ill catch you later, Urahara, Kiske. I better leave before Sui-feng sends a search party out for me" she added, throwing a lazy wave goodbye over her head before flash stepping away.

"deviant" urahara chuckled at her parting words. Turning to ukitake, both men slowly walking from the meeting hall "do you need help locating shunsui?"

"I should be fine, shunsui is a creature of habit, there's only so many places he could've ended up. I think I have an idea where to start my search" ukitake said, thinking of the likely place his friend retreated to. "Are you going to see miss Satsuki?" He questioned in tern

"as soon as I drop my papers back at home," he confirmed " I'll go see her and tell her what outcome of the meeting. If Kyoraku has settled down it might be worth you both coming too. Im sure she would appreciate the support" Kiske added. Wondering how much of the meeting he should tell to Kumiko.

"we shall see you there" ukitake agreed, patting the man's shoulder as a goodbye before he too flash stepped away in search of his friend.
