"Anything about Mugetsu?" Sui-Feng questioned.

"Nope. Sorry, but why are we even looking into him? He's not part of any case." Renji said as the two were trying to find something on him.

"What? We're leaving the law to this weirdo?" Sui-Feng said. "I don't think so. I don't trust him, but Ukitake seems to be giving him the benefit of the doubt and I don't like it."

"Well, catching him isn't going to be easy." Renji said. "Everything about this guy seems to be custom work. He leaves nothing behind that can be traced back to him. He doesn't wear gloves, but he doesn't even leave behind fingerprints. This guy is almost like a ghost." It's all true. No one can seem to track Mugetsu. "Speaking of Ukitake, where is he?"

...

Ukitake

Ukitake might be the one in charge of the police, but even the captain does what he must for the city. That's why he's waiting at the top of a building for a certain someone. He walked around until he was surprised by Mugetsu's suddenly appearing right in front of him.

"I wish you stop doing that." Jushiro said.

"You wanted to see me about something." Mugetsu said.

"Yes. I wanted to alert you about another colorful character." Jushiro said as he handed him some files for Mugetsu to look at. "You and Nightmare aren't the only ones around prancing around in your interesting fashion styles, but this one is a little more...bold." Mugetsu saw a photo of a suspect that was dressed like a stripper. She had a mix of blonde and brunette hair with her wearing a black mask around her eyes. She had on hot pink bra and panties with her also wearing gloves that reached her shoulders and wore pink and yellow stripped leggings with stilettoes. "She calls herself Temptress."

"I can see why." Mugetsu said, but wasn't interested in criminals. "What can you tell me about her? Other than her being a prostitute."

"She isn't a prostitute exactly. It's more like a gimmick of hers. Behavior patterns indicate her to be like a troubled child." Jushiro said. "She's the type that causes trouble for fun, but she goes the extra mile than most. I'm guessing a troubled childhood. Although, I suppose I'm no different with getting into trouble."

"I always pictured you were a well-behave child." Mugetsu joked.

"I mean what we're doing." Jushiro said. "Some of my men don't trust you, but I've seen your work. I can tell you're a good man. I'm just hoping this doesn't come back to bite me."

"Thanks for the intel." Mugetsu said as he handed back the file and started walking. "I'll keep my eyes open for her. Until then, I have to go."

"Go where?" Jushiro questioned.

"Dinner plans." Mugetsu claimed.

...

Ichigo

Being a vigilante one moment and a millionaire bachelor another is quite the life style. As Ichigo, he was able to walk into a fancy restaurant and headed for a table with two people on it. One was a guy in a white and black suit with his hair slicked back.

"Ginjo!" Ichigo called and got his attention.

"Ichigo, I'm glad you made it." Ginjo said as the two old friends shook hands. "Let me introduce you. Ichigo, I like you to meet Miss Joan Jennings." He said as he introduced a woman with brunette hair in a business suit and skirt.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Ichigo Kurosaki." Joan said as the two of them shook hands. "Ginjo here has been telling me a lot about you."

"I hope it was all good." Ichigo said.

"They were." Ginjo said. "I told her about how you took over your family's company at such a young age. I've also told her how you studied well, traveled around, and you've always been so productive. In fact, Joan here is the same. Back when she was in school, all she did was study. All of it really paid off as Joan here successfully started her own company."

"Really? What company?" Ichigo asked.

"Nothing too spectacular. It's really just I.T. departments, finances, and the usual boring business stuff." Joan said. "Still, it pays rather well. All that studying really did pay off."

"Seems like you two have a few things in common." Ginjo said, but Ichigo could tell where this was going.

"Could you please excuse us for a moment?" Ichigo asked as he grabbed Ginjo and the two of them walked off to talk in private. "Please don't tell me you called me here so you could fix her and me up."

"What if I did?" Ginjo teased. "Ichigo, even a young millionaire like you must get lonely. You have that large mansion, but you're completely alone in there. You need some companionship."

"I've had my share of that." Ichigo said.

"Those are just flings, and sometimes you pull some sort of disappearing act and leave them hanging. I don't believe you're really that type of guy." Ginjo said. "Don't you want something a little more long-term?" With his life as Mugetsu, it's not easy to find companionship. Besides, something like that isn't really easy for Ichigo. Still, it doesn't mean he can't have some fun.

"I'll do the date, but I'm not making any promises." Ichigo said as he went along with it. Plus, being some sort of bachelor playboy is also a good cover for who he really is. Ichigo went back to the table and helped himself to some dinner.

...

Later

It ended up being a nice dinner. Ichigo wasn't alerted about any trouble, so he had no reason to pull out. The two of them had a nice time with each other, and Ichigo was walking her home once it was all over.

"I think I only have one thing left to ask." Joan said as they reached her building. "How is it a handsome wealthy man like yourself managed to stay single? You must have models coming for you."

"I guess I just haven't found the right woman for me. I'm not the kind of guy that only wants a trophy wife." Ichigo said. "What about you? How is it someone like you isn't married or anything?"

"Well, there was never really a lot of time for dating where I come from. Could barely have fun." Joan said. "Of course, it could change." She said sounding interested. "I'll have to check my schedule to see if we can do this again. Good night." She said before she went into her building. It was rather nice of Ichigo, and even he would like another, but it's not that easy for him. As for Joan, she went up to her empty apartment. It was rather nice with some expensive pieces around, but Joan had other things in mind rather than just sticking around her apartment. She turned on the television and the news came on.

"With Prince Ahmed from Sadui Arabi here, we are looking at a tightening strong relationship between America and Sadui Arabi. With such a kind man helping out, we are looking at another step closer between towards peace between nations." The news report said, but Joan had her eyes on something else with the prince...like the gold pin he was wearing. Joan claims she doesn't have much fun in her life, but that's why she makes fun. As she disrobed herself, she reached for a different set of clothes and other accessories to change her look and ended up really being...Temptress.

"I think it's time I show that prince a time he won't forget." Temptress claimed.

...

The Prince

"I believe in faith. I believe in the will of all our gods. I believe peace is not some sort of fantasy." Prince Ahmed claimed as he was speaking to hundreds. "We must be able to recognize our differences with all nations and countries. We can learn a lot from each other, and learning is how we can all grow." Prince Ahmed was making his point clear as he spoke on the behalf of peace, but things aren't going to be so peaceful. Just outside the doorway of the assembly hall, a guard watched over one of the entrances, but he was in for a visit from Temptress.

"Hi there, handsome." Temptress said as she made herself seen. "Is that where the party is?"

"Ma'am, you're not allowed inside. Invitation only." The guard said.

"Really? I just want to go see the prince." Temptress said as she walked over to him. "I'm sure the prince would love it if I paid him a little visit."

"I cannot allow you in." The guard said.

"Oh, I understand. A big, strong, and fetching man like yourself must take your work serious." Temptress said as she slid her arms around him. "You certainly feel like a real man." She said as she slid her leg between his and the guard was getting all flustered until she took the chance and knocked him right out. "We'll have our fun another time, but princes come first." She said. She took a look inside and saw the assembly was ending and the prince was clearing out. "Bingo."

"But I'm afraid you lose." Temptress was surprised as she turned around and to see Mugetsu.

"You must be Mugetsu." Temptress said. "Well, you certainly look like you could be fun. That sword of yours euphemism? You certainly look like you could be fun, but what are you doing here?"

"This place is a prime target for low lives." Mugetsu said.

"That hurts. I'm just looking for some fun...with the prince." Temptress claimed.

"Your type of fun isn't exactly welcoming." Mugetsu said. "Time to come in."

"If that's an invite for you, I might accept. If that's for jail, I don't think so." Temptress said and attacked. She flipped forward and tried to strike him with her stilettoes, but Mugetsu blocked them. She straightened herself up and tackled him down and actually straddled him. "I was hoping for some physical fun, but this wasn't what I had in mind." She said as she lowered herself to his face. "Since we fought, how about we make up." She tried seducing him, but Mugetsu doesn't fall that easily. Instead, he bashed his head against her and knocked her off. "That's no way to treat a lady."

"Doesn't matter if you're a man or a woman. You're a sick mind and won't get any mercy from me." Mugetsu said as he got back up.

"Playing hard to get, are we?" Temptress said. "Seems like I finally got someone who could be a challenge. Besides, the more we fight, the better the make up would be." Mugetsu was going to take her in, but the assembly hall was clearing out and saw what was going on with them getting scared. "Sorry. Groupies are fun, but I prefer one-on-one." She said as she pushed past Mugetsu and ran for it.

"Hold it!" Mugetsu called as he chased after her. He tried to go after her, but it looks like she gave him the slip. Luckily, he knows who she is going after.

...

Prince Ahmed

After seeing Mugetsu and Temptress, security is being brought down. The prince was being moved quickly to the security of his hotel room until further notice. He and his guards hurried up to his hotel room and was soon upon it.

"Quickly. Inside, sire." One of the security guards hurried inside to get him safe. "Stay inside until it's clear." His security details pushed him inside and closed the door. The prince was inside with more security, but not as much as he thought.

"Hi." Prince Ahmed turned around and saw Temptress was there and made sure the door was locked. "Don't worry about your men. They're just sleeping without any happy endings. You are another matter." She said as she strutted over to him with the prince already getting nervous.

"What do you want? I only came here to speak on behalf of my people." Prince Ahmed said.

"Don't worry. I'm not going to hurt you." Temptress said as she had the prince back to the wall and she held her arm next to him, Prince Ahmed not sure if she's threating him or seducing him. "I was thinking that a prince would like some America enjoyment." She slide her hand around and took his gold pin from him. "I normally go for pleasure, but I think this covers profit." No telling what she was going to do, but that was when they heard the window smash open and Mugetsu came in. "Impressive. How did you even get up here?"

"Am I interrupting?" Mugetsu questioned.

"A little. I guess I'll have to make this a quickie." Temptress said as she grabbed a lamp and tossed it at him, but he easily smashed it with his sword. The lamp was just a diversion and ran for the window with her jumping on the ledge. "Okay, maybe not the brightest idea." She said as she tried to balance herself on the ledge as she tried to make her escape, but Mugetsu wasn't letting her go. While she tried to keep her balance, Mugetsu caught her easily and grabbed her by the wrist with him taking the gold pin and throwing it back in the prince's room. Once he had a hold of Temptress, he ripped off her mask and was shocked to see her face.

"Joan Jennings? What are you doing?" Mugetsu said.

"Having some fun in my life." Temptress said as she kicked him right in the gut and knocked him off. He actually lost his balance and fell right off the ledge, but he did some quick thinking as he took his sword and pierced the wall to slow his fall until he stopped. He's heard of dangerous women, but this is ridiculous. Luckily, he knows where to find this one.

...

Joan's Apartment

After her little adventure ended with her not getting what she wanted, she retreated back to her apartment. She came in through a window and just wanted to call it a day. She sighed in relief after a day like that, but disappointed she didn't get anything out of it.

"You certainly know how to show people a good time." She was surprised to see Mugetsu standing in the shadows.

"If you wanted to come back to my place, you could have said so." Temptress claimed. "I should have known you be here after knowing who I am."

"Why Miss Jennings? Why take on the identity of Temptress when you're a successful business woman?" Mugetsu questioned.

"Do you have any idea how boring that lifestyle is?" Temptress questioned. "I've been a good girl. I did everything I was asked, did what I was suppose to, did all my homework, but yet I missed out on all the fun. What's so wrong with just having some fun in your life?"

"The part where it's illegal." Mugetsu questioned. "From what I'm hearing, it sounds like you just snapped from the pressure. Sounds like the bland lifestyle was too much for you to handle."

"Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't." Temptress said. "The point is that I plan to make up for the lost time and have some fun in my life. The kind of fun where I don't care what happens." That's what she claimed. It would seem all work and no play does more than make Jack a dull boy. "We could have fun ourselves." She said as she walked right over to him and still tried to be seductive. "A hero and a villain being intimate sounds hot, doesn't it? Opposing forces and yet there's an attraction. I am rather curious to see that handsome face...or at least feel those lips under there." She said as she reached for the bandages, but Mugetsu grabbed her wrist and stopped her.

"You're charm is no good here." Mugetsu said as he reached in his robe and pulled out a recording device. "The police heard every word and are now just outside your door."

"Huh. You're the first not to fall prey so easily. I like a good challenge." Temptress said. "Maybe we could have something."

"Don't bet on it." Mugetsu said. Temptress might have been tempting to most men, but Mugetsu doesn't get tempted so easily.

...

An Office

"Once again, the works of the mysterious Mugetsu has caught another deranged criminal known as Temptress. Not only is Prince Ahmed saved, but the good news is that no international incident has been made. This is Rukia Abari Kuchiki coming to you live." Someone was watching the report about Mugetsu and seemed rather interested, but something about this man seemed...sinister.

"This Mugetsu is making himself pretty known while also being allusive. How interesting." The man said. "He just might be the ideal man to test out my latest research." The man claimed. Just who is this man?
