Somewhere in Seireitei Kiyone was walking aimlessly. Thinking about her sister and Hanataro. Hanataor out of all people, it bad enough that she was made fun of at the academy because of her hight. Now she has to face the fact of her being with Hanataro. Then as she was walking around, she bumped into Rukia.
"Kiyone?" Rukia looked at her. Then Kiyone returned to reality.
"Oh Rukia," Kiyone brushed herself off. "I didn't see you." Then she looked around and she didn't see Ichigo or Renji. "Where's your friends?"
"Oh Ichigo is caught up with Zaraki and Renji is with Kira and Shūhei." Then Rukia looked at Kiyone. "Hey Kiyone What's worng?"
"Nothing." She brushed off. She was still thinking about Hanataro and Isane. Rukia noticed that Kiyone wasn't acting her usuall self.
"Rukia..."
"What is it?" She looked A Kiyone.
"What whould you do if you don't want someone to get hurt, but at the same time you are afraid that what you do might hurt them in the process?"
"Well," Rukia was trying to think of something to say to that. "Kiyone, I really don't know."
"Oh thanks." She sadly walked away into the night. Rukia's eyes followed her. What's wrong with her? As she was lost in her thoughts. Zaraki came rushing by.
"Hey, Kuchiki," He barked at her. She looked up at the tall wild captain. "Have you seen Ichigo."
"Well not since this morning." Rukia replyed. Without a word of thanks he ran off to find Ichigo. As He left. Rukia (Excamation mark on her head) notice a cardboard box creeping by. She took a closer look and it was Ichigo inside the box.
"Rukia, is he gone?" Ichigo asked from the box.
"Yeah." Rukia looked at Ichigo. " What are you going inside of that box.
"I saw on a video game before." Ichigo got out of the bax. " I think it was called Metal Gear Solid."
BANG!!!
"Sonabitch!!!"
"What the hell was that?" Ichigo clutched his Zangetsu
"I don't know but it's heading toward us." Rukia clutched hers. Then the ground rumbled. The sound came closer and closer. Then from behind them a figure appeared.
"Hey guys." A familiar voice startled the duo. Rukia and Ichigo looked back and it was Ganju Shiba from the Shiba clan.
"Ganju what the hel?l" Ichigo yelled at him. He almost gave him a heart attack.
"What are you doing here?" Rukia asked.
"Well I was looking for Hanataro." Ganju replyed. "Have you seen him?"
"No, he wasn't here." Rukia replyed. "I think he left to the human world."
"That's odd." Ganju said as he was rubbing his chin.
"What do you mean?" Ichigo asked.
"Well, he's been acting funny lately." Ganju replyed. "Like he would just space out. even when we played Monopoly."
(Note: No one alive want to play Monopoly in Shiba residence with Kuukaku and win except Yoruichi..trust me..)
"Oh yeah, what's up with Kuukaku?" Rukai asked him. Then Ganju face turned white.
"I don't want to talk about it." He replied.
"Why not?" Ichigo went to him. "What happend?"
"Well it's that time of the month." He replied. Ichigo didn't want know any more. If she was on her cycle then that means that... He would rather fight Grimmjow and Zaraki at the same time then be at that house. "Also he been talking about someone."
"Who Rukia?" Ichigo looked at Rukia who turning a shade of red.
"Well no." Ganju was rubbing his head. "He said that this person was a Vice-Captain and a bit older than him. He was very discriptive about her."
"Did he say who?" Rukia asked.
"Well all I know that she was in the same Division as him." Ganju replyed.
"You mean Vice-Captain Isane Kotetsu?" Rukia was shocked that Hanataro would be in love..and with Isane out of all people. She thought that he was in love with her. Yeah they talked when she was in prison and even tried to save her life...but she didn't have those type of feelings for him.
"So that's why he went to the human world." Ichigo figure out what happend. "Man, out of all people Hanataro. Well Matsumoto and the others have went to the human world."
"What?!" Rukia looked at him. Then she grabbed Ichigo. "Ichigo come on let's go."
"Why?" Ichigo asked as he was being dragged along.
"Because, if we don't hurry..Hanataro will be in trouble." Rukia replied. Then Renji, a bit tipsy.
"Hey what's going on?" He asked as he was trying to make sense of what's going on.
"Renji, come on." Rukia grabbed him with the other hand.
"Hey!" Renji was being dragged along with Ichigo. He looked at Ichigo.
"Hey."
"Hi."
"So what about me?" Ganju tried to follow them. But it was too late. they was already gone leaving poor Ganju behind.
Meanwhile on Earth.
Hanataro and Isane were walking to the restaurant that was reserved for them. The streets was alittle crowded. The restaurant was near the park. Little did they know that the SWA was right behind them hiding in the bushes. Yachiru was wearing a gothic lolita outfit, Soi Fon was wearing a dress shirt with a Matrix like trench coat over it, Nanao is dress in a red track suit, Matsumoto is wearing a sleaveless button shirt with grey pants and Nanao was wearing her normal Shinigami uniform.
"So what's the plan?" Matsumoto who is tipsy before coming here.
"Well first we go in eat up the food and..."
"Let's just play attention to Hanataro and Isane." Nanao interupted her.
"Well we have to sneak in there first." Soi Fon sugested. "We didn't put any bugs on him."
"Ok that's out the way." Nanao looked down.
"Well we can go to the bar." Matsumoto rubbed her chin. "But they won't let Yachiru in."
"You can start by telling what the hell are you doing here." A familiar voice appeared. Then They turned around and saw Rukia, Renji and Ichigo looking at them.
"Uhh...Ichigo I don't think that we should get involved." Renji moved closer to him. They remember the last person that got involved that they had to meet with Nanao's eyes. Spooky.
"Ichigo!" Matsumoto went to him and hugged him. Ichigo trying to break free. "My dear...would you be a gentleman and help us out."
"What?" Ichigo looked at her. She donned her puppy eyes the same eyes that she used on Hitsugaya...
Shinigami Cup Golden
At the Shiba Residence. Ganju after the failed attempt to get Hanataro. Damn he was his only hope. He felt that scary reiatsu around the house even her bodygaurd won't go near. Brace up Ganju...you can do this. As he went in to her room. He swallowed his breath. Sweat was beading from his head. He can do this come on Ganju.
"Sister I didn't get Hanataro like you said." He opened the door and found Kuukaku dressed in a summer kimono with her hair tied on the side similar to Unohana's style.
"Oh you didn't little brother." Kuukaku wasn;t acting her usual self..she was nice...and it happends once a month..which freaked ganju pretty bad... "Do you want to play?"
