Chapter 5: Reunion

 

 

“Put me down!” Mikaze shouted to her captor as she pounded on his back with her small fists; she was being held over the taller person's shoulder like a sack of potatoes and she didn't like it one bit. Who was this person and why did he take her all of a sudden? More importantly, where was this person taking her?

“You can put her down now.” A voice came out of the other side of the room and Mikaze recognized it right away.

Mikaze's captor puller her off its shoulder and unceremoniously plopped her down on the floor causing the short, blue haired girl to stumble and fall on her butt.

“Ouch. Don't you know how to treat a lady?” Mikaze asked as she looked up at the face of the person in front of her. The person who had carried her had to have been a good six foot tall at least, with a creamy mocha complexion, short brown hair that was slightly spiked and the lightest blue eyes she had ever seen, even lighter than Rangiku's eyes. He had a scar on the left side of his face as if someone else had cut him with a sword in a battle that swept up from his cheek, past his eye to his hair line.

“Thank you for bringing her here. Please leave us.” The familiar voice said from behind Mikaze as she stood up.

The taller man nodded then used shunpo to leave the room. Mikaze turned around and saw the face that matched voice, confirming her thoughts that the speaker was in fact her twin brother.

“Nii-san, how are you not dead? You died in my arms so long ago.” Mikaze said.

“It was a staged death for me. Mother and father are dead, so are our brothers and sisters. I'm sorry.”

“But why was your death staged? Why didn't you tell me you were still alive?” Mikaze asked, she was so confused now.

“I wanted to contact you many times, but I couldn't. That's what being part of the Secret Force is, keeping yourself secret, even from your loved ones.”

“What is the Secret Force?” Mikaze asked.

“I shouldn't even tell you any of this. You shouldn't have seen me. For even seeing one of us, you could be executed.” Tensei told his sister.

“Then what was the point in kidnapping me, nii-san?” Mikaze was starting to get angry with her brother.

Tensei looked into Mikaze's green eyes with his own same shade of green ones. “If a Shinigami knows even the slightest thing about the Secret Force, that person either is to be either executed or to live in the realm of the Secret Force. I don't wish to see you dead, Kaze-chan, so I will plead with my Taichou to let you stay here with me.”

“Nii-san…” Mikaze's green eyes started to tear up, she had cried so much today and both times it had been someone she loved deeply that had made her cry.

“I'm sorry, Kaze-chan, but if it were up to me, I'd let you go without a hitch. You must have friends there and someone you love.”

Mikaze turned away from her brother's gaze; she did not want to talk about that person just now. Mikaze felt arms embrace her around the shoulders and her brother's chin rest upon her right shoulder.

“Please don't cry, Kaze-chan. I hate to see you hurting like this.” Tensei kissed his little sister on the cheek. “Please cheer up. Aren't you at least happy to see me?”

“I am happy to see you, nii-san, but how am I supposed to cheer up when you're going to be keeping me from my life?” Mikaze asked in a weak voice, tears still in her eyes, not daring to spill them in front of her brother.

“You can start a new life here with me, Kaze-chan. We can brother and sister once more.” Tensei whispered into Mikaze's ear.

“As much as I'm happy to see you alive, but you aren't the same Tensei that I remember from when we were children.” Mikaze's tears were now gone, but there was still somewhat of a sad look in the green orbs.

“Kaze-chan?” Tensei asked as Mikaze moved away from him.

“I have a family there, in the Seireitei, my friends, my Division. Everyone around me there is my family and they make me happy. Even if sometimes we can't always tell each other how we feel, we know the feelings are there and that's enough. We'll always be there for one another and protect each other.” Mikaze smiled as she thought of her friends; Shiori, Momo, Rangiku, all the other Division members, and Toushirou. “Even if I can't truly be with him, as long as I'm close to him, I'll be happy. That's what I originally thought and I should be happy with that.”

“So you do love someone there.” It was more of a statement then a question.

Mikaze turned around to look at her brother again, resolve and realization in her green eyes. “Yes, I love my Captain and I should be happy just being near him. He can't worry about just me, he has responsibilities to the Division so I should stop being selfish and just be happy to be near him.”

“Didn't you hear me, thought? You won't be able to leave here.” Tensei said.

Mikaze nodded and kept looking at her brother. “He has a responsibility to his Division and being a member of his Division, he has a responsibility to rescue me.”

“He wouldn't know where to even start looking.” Tensei said a little cocky.

“He's Hitsugaya Toushirou, he'll find a way.” Mikaze said calmly.

Tensei turned away from his younger twin sister angrily. She was being way too calm for someone who might die. She believed that her Captain was going to save her, but how could he when he didn't even know where to start looking for the blue haired girl? Tensei left the room to cool off and decided to plead with his Captain to at least let the girl live.

 

Toushirou requested emergency passage back to the Seireitei for himself and the group the moment they arrived back at Urahara Shouten. Once back through the Senkaimon, Toushirou quickly went to the Division One meeting hall to talk to the Head Captain. Shiori decided to follow the short Captain, Mikaze was her best friend after all and she wanted to find the small girl just as much as Toushirou did. Rangiku also followed since the matter involved a member of their Division. The large doors were opened for them as soon as the three arrived; Toushirou rushed inside and knelt down before the Head Captain.

“Yamamoto SouTaichou, I would like to request an emergency rescue team to find a Division member of mine. It seems that the Secret Force has taken Kawahone Mikaze.” Toushirou explained.

“What reason would the Secret Force have to take Kawahone Mikaze?” the Head Captain asked.

“It seems that she has seen and recognized one of their members, sir.” Toushirou was trying to keep his voice steady as to not show that he wanted to find the girl mainly because he loved her.

“Hm, this is dilemma.” Yamamoto said.

Shiori stepped up next to Toushirou and bowed. “Ojii-sama, please approve Hitsugaya Taichou's request. You know how much of an asset Kawahone is to the Seireitei.”

“I do, therefore your request is granted. Although, I expect you to fully prepare for a battle. They will not give the girl up easily.” Yamamoto explained.

“Understood, sir.” Toushirou said as he bowed.

“I would like the three of you to stay. I will be calling an emergency meeting.”

“Yes, sir.” The three said in unison.

The Head Captain sent out many black butterflies with orders for all Captains and Vice Captains to head to the Division One meeting hall. The Captains and Vice Captains started showing up very quickly. The first to arrive was Soifon, the Captain of Division Two, a rather petite woman who had short black hair with two long braids bound in white cloth, ending with large gold rings. She wore the typical Captain's haori with a yellow obi tied around her waist, which also tied her Zanpakutou to her back. Also, being the Commander-in-chief of the Onmitsukidou, or rather the Stealth Force, she wore a uniform which had no sleeves and didn't cover her back, although she did wear long, black arm bands to make her uniform look like the typical Shinigami robes. Her grey eyes looked rather angry looking most of the time.

Marechiyo Oumaeda, the Vice Captain of Division Two, followed behind his Captain. The man was rather large, about twice as tall as Soifon and some would say a good four times her weight. He wore his black hair with sideburns and a point at the top of his head; he seemed as if he was balding since his hair line was quite far back on his head. He also wore a large purple collar with his Shinigami robes and expensive, personalized jewelry around his neck, wrists and fingers. His eyes were black and beady looking and he had a bag of snacks in his hands.

Next to arrive were Komamura Sajin and Iba Tetsuzaemon, Captain and Vice Captain of the Seventh Division. Komamura was the tallest of all of the Captains, standing at 9'5” tall with white and light brown fur. His uniform included large shoulder pads that were worn over his haori and large, plated boots instead of the standard sandals. His golden eyes were like liquid amber and he looked like he might be nice to pet.

Iba was tall, but obviously shorter than his Captain, standing at six feet tall. He wore nothing special with his uniform except for the fact that he wore sunglasses on his face. His black hair looked to be cut in a peculiar way, sideburns and flat on the top of his head. There was nothing exactly special about the man, although he did look a bit tough.

Shiroi was in complete awe in the presence of Unohana Retsu, the Captain of Division Four, a very youthful looking woman whose black hair was fixed into a braid in front of her just under her chin and her blue eyes were very kind and had a kind of motherly look to them. Unohana only stood at 5'2
