Chapter Fourteen.

The next morning, Rukia wondered why her brother told her to get Tamika up early and dressed in her finest clothing, but then, she realized why it was the big moment for Tamika she was going to be presented to the other Captains to see her Bankai to see if she can become a Captain. She hurried to Tamika�s room and slid the door open to find her up and dressed in her finest clothing, she was putting Hono�o odori into her strap when she came in. �Are you ready to do this, Tamika?�
Tamika smiled. �Yes, but I am worried that they wouldn�t like my Bankai or think it is too weak for someone like myself.�
�Your sword is one of a few swords that is fire based. Something tells me that you will be perfect for being a Captain,� Rukia stated, as she looked at her. �Besides, it is not every day that my brother is sponsoring a possible new Captain to join the ranks.�
Tamika looked at her. �I know. He never from what I heard ever sponsored a Shinigami to become a Captain before.�
�He must think you are worthy of the chance to show your Bankai to the others, Tamika.� Rukia replied.
�I know, it is sweet of him to do this but what if I fail to produce my Bankai for them, it will embarress me and shame him?�
�Don�t worry, you will do good. Now lets go, it is about time for you to get there.� Rukia said, as they headed for the 1st Division building for the meeting.
Tamika looked at the doors that she would soon enter. �I guess we better go in then.�
�Only you can enter, Tamika. I�m just here to escort you.� Rukia said, as she looked at her.
�Did your brother ask you to escort me here just so I wouldn�t bail out?�
�Sort of. He knew you would be nervous and having a friend walk with you might ease it some.� Rukia replied.
�He�s right, you know, I am nervous.� Tamika admitted as she looked at her.
�Well, don�t be nervous, Tamika. All of us has to do this once in our lives.� Spoke a voice coming from the dark door as Ukitake stepped from the door way.
�Ukitake-Taicho!� Rukia exclaimed, as she bowed to him. �I didn�t know that they were going to send you to get Tamika?�
�I offered to come bring her in.� Ukitake said, with a mild wave of his hand.
�So it is time, Ukitake?� Tamika asked.
Ukitake smiled as he nodded. He turned and waved bye to Rukia and led Tamika into the 1st Division building to her encounter with the Captains. �She will see you at the celebration dinner tonight to celebrate your Captainship, Tamika.�
�If I take a seat, Ukitake. I might not take one.� Tamika said, as she looked at him as they walked into the meeting hall to see the other Captains and the three Vice Captains standing in the place of their Captains.
Yamamoto was standing at the end of the line of Captains and Vice Captains as Tamika approached the Captain of the 1st Division. �You have been an outsider of the ranks for too long, Nara. It is time for you to make a choice in becoming a Captain of one of the three Divisions that is in need of a Captain or be a seat in one of the Divisions. Kuchiki has recommended you to try out for a Captain�s seat. Is this your choice?�
�I have thought this long and hard but I would like to speak with the Vice Captains of the Divisions that is lacking a Captain before I make my decision, first.� Tamika spoke, as she looked at him.
Yamamoto looked a little shocked at this but he nodded. �You may take the side room to converse with them and then make your decision, Nara, after you show us your Bankai.�
Tamika looked at the room and shook her head. �Not within this room, I�m afraid my Bankai would do damage here.�
Yamamoto shook his head, �Do it here, I�m sure that your Bankai will do no harm here.�
She looked at the other Captains and the vice Captains and bowed her head as she withdrew her sword and held it the full length of her arm. �Bankai, Hono�o odori!�
Red and orange flames licked her blade as the flames wrapped around her sword. She barely heard the Bankai of Hitsuguya�s sword till she saw the icy wings of his Bankai start to surround her. She swung her blade towards the ice that started to surround her melting it as fast as it could before she heard Yamamoto�s voice call out.
�End your Bankai, Nara! You have shown us your Bankai and we require a few minutes to discuss this.�
Tamika called off her Bankai just as a bird of fire was making it�s appearence from her sword and then vanished. She sheathed her sword and then bowed to them and walked out of the room waiting for them to call her back. She paced in the room wondering why they needed to talk about it since usually after they see the Bankai or see the defeat of a current ranked Captain of a Squad, the person would become a Captain if they so chose to become one. There was only one people who had achieved Bankai and refused Captainship was Ikkaku of squad 11, he refused to take on the rank because he liked the group he was in.
Ukitake stepped outside of the room to see her sitting looking away from the door, he smiled softly and walked over to her and sat down next to her. �They�re ready for you, Nara. Have you decided what Division you are going to ask for?�
�Not yet, Ukitake. I would have to talk it over with the Vice Captains but it will come after a long thought out process.� Tamika stated, as she looked at him.
�I trust you will pick the right one,� He stood up and held out his hand to her. �Come, they are waiting.�
She allowed him to help her stand up and followed him into the division once again to stand before the Captains. Yamamoto looked at her and spoke, �We have saw your Bankai and weighed your right to the status of Captain, Nara.�
�And the decision of all Captains are . . . ?� asked Tamika, swallowing her fear of being rejected by them.
�We have accepted you within our ranks. Now you need to chose your squad that you will be Captain of.� Yamamoto stated.
Tamika looked towards the three vice captains and spoke, �I would like to interview each vice captains of the 3rd, 5th, and the 9th squads.�
Yamamoto nodded. �Granted. Izuru Kira of the 3rd squad will be the first to be interviewed by you.�
Kira and Tamika walked into the private room where they talked for about ten minutes before he stepped out and asked Sh�hei Hisagi to come into the room and took his place in line with the other Captains. He refused to say what she asked of him within the room, he looked very at ease about standing where his Captain once stood.
Shuhei Hisagi came out of the room and looked at Momo Hinamori, spoke, �She�ll see you now, Hinamori.�
Hinamori nodded and walked into the room to see Tamika sitting on the raised level with tea cups next to her. �You wish to see me, Nara?�
�Please call me Tamika, Hinamori.� Tamika said, as she poured tea into the cups and held one out to her. �Share some tea with me while we talk.�
�All right . . . Tamika,� Hinamori spoke, as she knelt in front of her and accepted the cup from her.
�I�ll be brunt with my questions. What do you think of having someone assume Captain of your squad?� asked Tamika.
�Oh, Aizen will return! I know it!� She cried out.
�But he attacked his fellow Shinigamis and faked his own death, Hinamori and he tried to kill you,� Tamika stated.
�He�s under a spell! He wouldn�t have killed me!� She replied.
Tamika looked at her seriously as she touched her hand. �He will not be returning here alive, Hinamori. When the war against Aizen happens and if our side is victorous Aizen will be killed for what he did, there will be nothing you could say to change his fate here in Soul Society. Now will you accept another as Captain of your squad?�
�I couldn�t really . . . accept anyone but Aizen,� Hinamori said.
A few minutes later, they emerged from the room. Tamika stood by Yamamoto as Hinamori returned to her place as the 5th squad vice captain.
Yamamoto looked at Tamika and spoke in his booming voice, �Nara, have you made your choice?�
�I have, and I chose as the squad I will take as mine is . . . .� Tamika spoke.
