Chapter 14- Falling into the Darkness
Saya's POV:

The light washed over us as we entered the vibrant world of the Soul King and the where the other recruits were amazed with the sights that came with their new environment. many gasped at the cylindrical floating palace that hovered before a long path accompanied by four large platforms seemed to float like clouds around the palace. A place that I had been before with Hikifune, I came off as unimpressed as everyone else looked around in awe of our new home. I quickly took my place behind my leader.
”Let’s go!” I called out, trying to gain everyone’s attention.
As we pushed forward to the training barracks kept at ground level under the palace of the Soul King, I couldn't help but to listen to the whispers from the lucky few that followed behind me speculating the circumstances for our arrival.
Myself, fully knowing that the one of the four Captains of the Royal Guard had been slain in battle, I couldn’t help but want to be alone with Captain Hikifune to ask the questions that enveloped my mind.
A mysterious woman, she was the prior captains closest confidant, a liaison if you will between the Soul Society and the Soul Kings governance. Even though she was and had been the captain of division 12 for as long as the 13 divisions had been around, she had remained the one that could walk between the worlds. A gate keeper over the inner workings of both worlds and the most likely to take on the prized position of the next captain of the highly coveted squad zero. Throughout the 1000 year blood war she worked tirelessly to improve the technology needed to propel the shinigami to victory. Set on inventing ways in which to improve fighting techniques, she has been the sole supervisor of the division zero recruits used as the first line of defense to the Souls Kings world. Young shinigamis that trained in the advanced teachings of the zero division captains most sent to live in the Soul Society only to be called upon in the need of a specialized first line to that world. Many believed that her and the Head Captain Yamomoto were among the first to be trained under such special conditions.
As we walked the dull grey path two large doors opened to a utopia fit for royalty, gardens, ponds, extensive training and educational facilities; all fit for a king were laid out for us. Stopping to admire the view for only a second, we were summoned on to our not so humble rooms and immediately introduced to our new comrades in battle at our new meeting center deemed Golden Cloud Hall. Even I was surprised to see only 30 or so shinigami were constantly monitoring the entrance to the world of the Soul King. All of my previous trips had been during the night, times in which I had thought had been the reason for little activity in the barracks. After the bewilderment faded I searched for Captain Hikifune as I tried to shake Koga from my side until I finally ran into a familiar face.
“Isao” I yelled out as I spotted the handsome young man that I had embarrassed just a day prior.
He smiled as I moved toward him, “Lieutenant Aomori, you remembered my name”
I smiled back, “And you remembered mine but please call me Saya. I guess that makes us friends”
His cheeks blushed vibrantly at my comment. I had to admit that he was kind of cute for a younger man, somewhat reminding me of Kisuke in his early years with a little less mystery surrounding him.
Using him for my escape, I linked my arm with his, “Would you be so kind as to show me around my new home?” I asked him playfully to get under Koga’s skin.
”Sure, it would be my pleasure.” He blushed again as he steered me away from Koga and out to the corridor.
His blush faded as we walked through the doorway, ”Where can I take you that haven’t already been?”
I let out a large breath as Koga was no longer attached to me, “I had to get away from him! Wait…” my head turned to look at him realizing what he had just said, “How did you know that I have been here before!” I questioned him.
He slightly leaned back with a curios look upon his face, "You have been here with my mother more than once”
Now confused I quickly asked the asked, “Your mother?”
His confusion now matched mine, “Captain Hikifune is my mother. Hasn’t she told you that?”
I felt deceived as I let out a dark laugh. Why wouldn’t she tell me that? Did I miss that conversation at some point?
Bewildered at my confusion he continued, “She had to have told you…I’m like you!" His story as genuine as if we had been meant to meet from birth, "My father was a human too!”
I became lightheaded as he uttered those words. How could he have possibly known if it wasn't the truth I thought to myself. He grabbed me and wrapped my arm around his neck as I lost my balance. A look of shock now enveloped his once carefree face.
“Saya!” Koga yelled out as he walked out to see me in my current state, “What did you do to her?” he snapped at Isao.
Slowly gaining back my composure, I stood up from his arms attempting to divert Koga from the trail that could possibly render us both exiled.
“Nothing Koga, I just got lightheaded that’s it." I turned to look back to Issao my eyes as shaky as my voice, "Thank you Isao for helping me. I hope that we can continue our conversation very soon!”
Isao nodded as if to say he understood, still stunned by my lack of information.
Taking my leave back to my room, I attempted to fend off Kogas help.
“I’m fine, really!” I whined at him as I gave in to his help, allowing him to assist me back to my room.
“Why do you worry me like that?” he asked as he laid me down on to my bed then crawled in next to me.
“W..what are you doing Koga?” I rolled away from him in protest.
“You don’t expect me to leave you by yourself after that little episode, do you?” he answered back.
I laid there silent pondering Isao’s remarks and questioning why Hikifune hadn’t revealed that important bit of information to me before now. Before I came to Squad Zero. Questions bombarded my brain as I laid there awaiting to be taken by the precious gift of sleep.
Koga’s fingers caressing my arm suddenly woke me from my nap causing me to practically jump out of my bed. I stumbled over my bags as I rushed to leave the room, so afraid that he would erase the feeling of Kisuke’s touch from my mind, replacing it with his own. I ran to the gardens to be alone, finally collapsing down to knees and silently weeping as I fully realized how much I needed Kisuke and how much I already missed him. The smell of his skin lingered on mine as my hands met my face, hardly able to breath, I felt like I pieces of my heart were missing. Almost as if I had willingly left them with Kisuke as we made love in seductive stillness of the night.
“Saya?” a voice called out.
I recognized Isao’s voice as his hands gently took hold of my the sides of my arms and he picked me up off of the ground.
“I’m going to take you to my mother, OK!?”he instructed me.
I nodded and wrapped my arms around his neck as he carried me to him mother office. I became more troubled as he held me close to him, almost identical to how Kisuke held me. Upon arrival to the office, he sat me down on a couch.
Brushing my hair from my face, “Are you ok?” He whispered.
I wiped the tears from my face, “You just remind me of someone so wonderful… Someone that I love very much!”
I looked up into his emerald green eyes that seemed to be filled with a isolated disappointment.
“I understand” he said as he slid backed to give me my space, only to stand up as the door opened suddenly and Captain Hikifune entered the room.
Enraged by so many things that had gone unsaid I yelled out, "What the Hell is going on?”
She quickly turned to blatantly respond to my outburst, "I urge you not to forget that I am your Captain and I will not be addressed in such a matter!"
I walked over to her desk and placed my hands on the edge, bowing my head, "I'm sorry Taicho but why wouldn't you have told me and Isao? About you?"
She placed her zanpukato on a stand upon her desk.
"Why do you think that I have taken such a interest in you? In your progression? Whether or not you like it, I am a vital part of your fate and as mother of a hybrid child I will do my best to protect and guide you! Don't you understand that is why you are here!"
Now surprise and intrigue accompanied my anger as I spoke on.
"My fate!" I snapped, "What do you know about my fate? I just left the man that I love to be here, my fate should have left me with him damn it!" I began to pace and uncontrollably flail my arms in large gestures as I spoke on, " Instead I'm here for an unknown amount of time now wondering what else secrets were hides from me!"
One eyebrow raised she sighed as she waited for me to finish, "Are you done?" she asked, almost mocking me.
Frustrated and out of steam I plopped down into the white chair behind me as if to say yes in my own pitiful way.
Her eyes squinted at me as if she was debating in her mind just what to say. "I know that you two are very much in love but there lies the problem! Kisuke has a fate of his own to follow right now...as do you! For that reason your separation is a necessary evil for the advancement of both of you! I have seen it and your love comes at a steep price!"
The anger from her ambiguity boiled my blood, "What are you talking about?" I demanded, "I would rather have one day of pure happiness with Kisuke than a lifetime without him! Why does it matter to you?"
Her face softened as she glanced at Isao then back at me, "I made a promise to your mother that I would do my best to guide you in her absence and I intend to keep that promise!" she paused as her voice became almost mysterious in tone, "You and I have crossed blades more times than can be counted, but do you know what my zanpakutos true power is?"
I watched her run her finger along the peach sheath that hugged her zanpukato tightly, almost hypnotized by its power as she slowly pulled it out to present it to me.
"Unmeihime, better know as the destiny princess she possesses many powers one of which allows me to know what an opponent will do or is thinking of doing, with each crash of the blade. Giving me the advantage of being one step ahead!"
My mind raced back, thinking back our training. It did always feel like she knew what I was going to do before I did.
I continued to sit there speechless as Isao chimed in to lighten the heavy situation. "It makes for a really tough childhood!" he smirked, pleased that he got in a few words.
Her eyes darted over to him as if to say be quiet then returned back to me.
My eyes now back to Kirio, I slowly shook my head. Desperately wanting to understand, "I still don't know what this has to do with me!"
Releasing a Cheshire grin she continued, "That is not her only power… since her power connects with the mind and soul of the opponent, when she is held all it revealed as well as the fates of all those closest to them. If you remember, I have asked you to multiple time to fetch her for me furring our trainings."
Realizing what she was saying my eyes widened, "So you have seen my future? Why would you do that?"
Becoming tired of the questions she rolled her eyes as she grabbed and took a bite of odd looking food that was placed in on her desk.
"Please keep up my dear!" She said, mouth full, "Your mother and I were close friends, trained together and even fell for human men together. When she relinquished her powers and left the soul society, she asked that I watch over child as they made their way through the Seirete and I agreed in the name of friendship. I had her hand me my zanpakuto before she left enabling me to see the birth of you and death of her and your father!"
Instantly I launched to my feet, leaning over her desk unable to hold back my angry words that flew at her like fists, "What kind of friend let's her walk away from that!" slamming my hands to her desk, "You could have saved both of them!"
She sat in her chair so clam it was almost wicked, "That is part of blessing and the curse that comes with Unmeihime... I'm under her power, physically unable to share the visions that I see, I can only create opportunity or guide someone to make the right decision but at the end of the day it's all about the choices that we make." Again she took bites of food between her sentences as if she hadn't eaten in years, "Your mother, strong willed like you, would have never left your father. Even if it was for only one...day...of happiness!"
My eyes peered at her filled with hate as I paced the room, "What did you see about me?"
She laughed, "I told you that I can't tell you that! Just know that you're safe from ones wicked grasp and by choosing this, you have allowed another to follow a path that has been laid out for him." Now almost silly in her explanation, "Everything happens for a reason my dear, one decision guides another and connects us all. It's a fine balance that I manage." She leaned into her desk, speaking with her hands, "Why do you think the soul king has me as a trusted adviser?" she sat back with a swagger.
I snapped at her, "How dare you! You act like you are the Captain here!"
She laughed once more, "Oh there is so much that you still don't know but time will reveal all truths and heartache whether you want it to or not!"
Growing weary of the conversation I turned and walked to the door glaring at Isao out of the corner of my eye. He sat there, feet up and lounging back on the couch like the things that were revealed were an everyday occurrence in his life.
His relaxed attitude pissed me off more as I yelled out to him before leaving the room. "Thanks for sticking around! A lot of help you were!"
Looking back at her as I slid the door shut, I paused for a moment to see that the slender woman that I had had been speaking to now 10-15lbs heavier. Shaking the image out of my head, I closed the door completely convinced that my eyes were playing tricks on me. Still on edge I took the rest of the day to explore my new prison, making sure to avoid Koga as well.
The intense training schedule quite literally had me losing track of time as weeks turned into months and my unit moved like shadows though the known worlds. Every time we entered the senkaimon I prayed that the Soul Society would be the greeting me from the other side. I didn't even have to see him, I just wanted to feel his spiritual pressure and to know that we were close. Bouncing between worlds we came across a wild land filled with oddly adapted hollows that we continued to monitor even used for training purposes. With each visit their powers seemed to Increase and the land became more unsettling as I began to feel the persistent evil that continued to grow on the winds.
More about my mentor and host captain were revealed as her constant weight gain while in the Souls Kings world became something of intrigue to all of the recruits that had never seen her in such a curious state. Finally she told us of her research using the same logic she used to invent gikongan, Kirio was able to imbue the food she cooks with reiatsu in order to strengthen anyone who consumes it beyond any level they could ever assume. Her weight gain was a result of her method of cooking. Each time it uses up all of her reiatsu and she loses most of her weight in the process. As a result, she must bulk up again in between feasts. Like a mother cooking with love for her family she had made certain that each of the recruits were taken care of with her special cooking technique so that we were able to endure the torturous process of training.
Isao and I grew closer and closer as I pushed away the persistent advances of Koga, continuing to find his presence a relief with the relevance of our bond. A connection that no one else could possibly understand, we spoke freely about our differences to the typical shinigami population and our quite contribution to their... our world. Our weak bodies, our inability to heal quickly and the burden of emotion that we relied so heavily upon were all things that we shared. He too was silently acknowledged by the Soul King and Head Captain Yamamoto for who we really were; forced to keep our human origin a secret.
While Hikifune moved back and fourth between the Soul Society and the Royal Guard we often we used the little time that we had to ourselves during the night to discuss our families, our dreams and our past. Our stories were similar, products of a love that crossed the boundaries of fiction and reality only to end in tragedy. Sadly, I couldn't help to be a little jealous and feel that he proved to be the lucky one, losing his human father to illness but allowed to spend his life among the ranks of the strongest shinigami carefully under the watch of a mother that was still alive. I hated myself for thinking that way but I would have given so much for just one of my parents to have lived.
I felt our interest becoming more than a mere friendship as our late night conversations became more playful and free. I tried not to bring up Kisuke for my own benefit, thinking that the less I spoke of him the less I would miss him but that proved to not be true. I wanted him more as I held my love for him a prisoner within the chambers of my own heart. Isao avoided the subject for the most part, only asking the occasional question to test the waters and see how much he could get out of me. After months passed I began to open up more, in part to deter his growing affection for me and to divert any feelings that I had festering for him.
Finally breaking the silence, "Saya" he questioned me one night as I played with my necklace and stared out onto the courtyard.
I glanced at him softly as he continued, "Do you think that you could ever love someone else?" he paused looking out over the shadows of blooming cherry blossoms, " If you couldn't be with him that is"
I felt my cheeks flush as I looked away glancing back into the darkness fully knowing where the conversation was going, "Please don't say something that you can't undo Isao"
His forefinger found my chin and guided my face back to look at him, "I cant help it, I'm falling for you. We were meant to be together, cant you feel it?!"
I gasped as he leaned in and his lips found mine. Hesitating to kiss him back my body became stiff not ready for the rush that followed. The pure adrenaline that came from his affection rampaged my body, leaving me broken and wanting more. Lost in his loving touch, I gave into the temptation; passionately kissing him back while silently begging for more than just a kiss. He reminded me so much of Kisuke as a young man, strong yet week at the feet of my presence. I enjoyed the they way that he greeted my dominance as I pulled him close to me; willing to hand over the control of the situation. Our lips parted as we parted for air, exploring the longing in each others eyes. Our gazes snapped me back to the reality of the situation; my love left behind and this kind man before me. He leaned for another taste of my mouth but I pulled back this time, sickened by my deceitful actions.
"I can't do this!" I whispered back to him.
His chest heaved and his hand slid from my face as he reserved himself from the devious chain of events that would be to follow had I allowed it
My eyes no longer able to look at him, "I'm sorry but I just can't do that to him!" I whispered in embarrassment of my actions.
"No, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have" He whispered back then stood up and walked away.
Left on my own once more, I tucked my knees to my chest, wishing for a clarity that just wouldn't come.
