Heres the chapter update. This one is the longest chapter yet. Hope you enjoy it. Also feel free to point out mistakes if any and do leave reviews. :)
Disclaimer : I do not own Bleach.
This one is for aka-nee since they wanted me to make a list of who is which animal. You can skip this portion if you want. They come in order of appearance and in some places I have given a reason as well.
Byakuya Kuchiki- Black Panther; since he is all powerful and he is a solitary creature.
Renji Abarai- A dog (mongrel); I think this reference is obvious.
Yamamoto Soutaichou- A white stork; this one was a random choice, I was considering an owl but thought a stork would be better.
Sasakaibe (The vice-captain of the first division) - A goat; he reminds me of one. By the way I like goats had one as a sort of pet once upon a time.
Sui Feng- A cheetah; this is a reference to her post as the second division captain plus I think she would love to be a feline.
Omaeda (The vice-captain of the second division) - A pig; this one is a stereotype of how pigs are greedy and stupid animals. This stereotype is wrong though as pigs are actually highly intelligent and lovable animals.
Unohana Retsu - An elephant; usually gentle but can wreak havoc if angered i.e. Unohana in a sentence.
Isane Kotetsu – A giraffe; this is a reference to her height.
Hanatarou – A koala bear; because he is as cute and cuddly like them.
Kurotsuchi Mayuri – A bat; cause he is batty.
Kurotsuchi Nemu- She remains normal since she is in fact a mod soul.
Kenpachi Zaraki – A wolf cause I couldn't think of anything else.
Yachiru – A fox.
Hitsugayay Toshiro – A snow leopard cub.
Kensei Muruguruma- A polar bear cause he reminds me of a bear.
Ikkaku Madarame – A gibbon.
Yumichika Ayesagawa – A peacock cause he is beautiful and prideful.
Sosuke Aizen – A field mice.
Shinji Hirako – A chimp his grin is oddly monkey like.
That's all for now. This list will be updated as the other characters appears.
The Captain's Meeting Hall
Renji continued to grumble under his breathe unhappy that he had to go to the living world that to in this state. He would have continued to grumble if his captain hadn't fixed him with a stern look that said you will stop complaining and do your work or else. Sighing he turned towards the massive doors of the captains meeting hall so as to accomplished his mission.
He walked towards the giant gates with a dejected look at the prospect of having to show up at Urahara's in his state. He could already hear the shopkeeper's evil laughter from Karakura all the way to Seireitei. "Damn it!" he wondered "Why does it have to be me?"
Kyoraku Shunsui watched as the red colored dog more like puppy exited the captains meeting hall all the while grumbling about his task. Releasing a huff he commented "Well thank god the meeting is over now I can go take a nap!" The senior eighth division captain had turned into a lion. He looked beside him to spy his lieutenant who was a donkey. No you read that right she really was a donkey. A black colored very intelligent donkey.
Said lieutenant was in a bad mood as she could visualize that paperwork that had to be piling up every second. 'Oh god all that paperwork...captain won't do it so I will have to do everything.' she thought her irritation increasing. Meanwhile Kyoraku Shunsui was thinking how a nice bear hug would probably lighten Nanao chan's mood. So he leapt on the lieutenant with the intention of glomping her. Nanao simply lifted her hind legs and delivered a powerful kick to his chin sending him flying away.
Everyone watched as Kyoraku flew over their heads in an arc and landed hard on the floor. "Sorry gut reaction" called out Nanao mentally snickering. 'Mission accomplished' thought the flamboyant captain as he observed his zanpaktou spirits the Katen Kyokotsu running around his head.
"Dear me are you all right Shunsui?" exclaimed Ukitake rushing towards his best friend. "Yeah…yeah I am fine." Said the flamboyant captain as he got up shaking his mane. "I am glad." Said Ukitake shaking his horned head and sighing at his oldest friends antics. Kyoraku looked at the sheep that is Ukitake in front of him and at that precise moment his stomach grumbled.
"I think I am hungry." He commented lazily not realizing the effect he had on the white haired sheep in front of him. Ukitake quickly backed away and said "I am not food Shunsui!" Hearing the conversation all the others who were herbivores quickly backed away from the carnivores. The head captain sighed before commanding "Ok…No eating each other!"
Meanwhile with Renji
Renji sneaked out of the hall and started towards the senkaimon which was at the west end of Seireitei. As he crept about he noticed that the intense hustle and bustle that had already started in Seireitei. He knew that the third and fourth seats had been informed of the important captain and lieutenant meeting in order to prevent anyone from finding out about the latest disaster.
Making up his mind to be cautious he carefully made his way to the senkaimon gate by hiding in the shadows and with the use of shunpo. He gave a sigh of relief as he saw the senkaimon gate which would lead him directly to the world of the living. As he snuck in through the gate he felt a shiver pass through him at the prospect of being alone and vulnerable in the precipice world. Strengthening himself he flash stepped across the precipice world towards the world of living.
The Muken
As Aizen fleeted through the twisted halls and corridors of Muken, the cogs in his brain were turning. The first thing he had to do was to find a way to turn back into a human before he got caught by anyone or anything for that matter. In his condition he was vulnerable to predators and other shinigamis as well.
Also he didn't know how he had turned into a mouse. 'If only I could find a way to turn back into human I could surprise the Gotei 13 and defeat them. Nothing could stand in my way!' thought Aizen cackling was already planning how he could get rid of the head captain and the other captains in order to fulfill his plan of becoming the soul king.
He continued to scamper across the floor of the Muken until he came across a very old secret passageway. One that would lead him straight to the Captain's meeting hall.
