Eight Years pass…
Saya's POV:
The years seemed to roll by one after the other allowing us to become more comfortable with the unconventional life that we secretly led together. More nights than not, I slept at his side, within the confides of our humble space always helping him with with his research, playing the role of a wife and lover as we embarked in a feast of passionate love making as much as possible. As with many domestic situations, the good also came with the bad as our nights a part spurred on our jealousies brought on by the empty side of the bed and a longing for more; a permanence that nether of us would have guessed would have become a priority or even a need.
Now fully settled into the role as Captain and President of the research and development division under the thirteen courtyard squads, Kisuke found himself progressively consumed by his work as his duties took him away more and more as the peaceful times that we had freely basked in hand now shaken beneath our feet. The Soul Society was not only on constant high alert as the appearances of stronger and more advanced hollows, a monster that I had come to know well as they quickly climbed in numbers but the sieritie had been rocked by may mysterious disappearances that had come to pass within the riyoka districts. These two major happenings left us all uneasy as protectors and holding no other options but to recognizing the acts as a deliberate threat to our very existence. Whispers ran through the divisions as they nervously awaited for the response of the Head Captain, that day that one of our own would fall victim. Within this realization, Kisuke had no other option but to take on this mystery for his own given his abilities sand intellect. In response to the threat, Captain Ukitake loaned my special unit to division thirteen. A silent favor not only for the grater good but in part because he saw the foundation that Kisuke and I stood upon crack as our time took us into different directions instead on the world that held us together. By day my sub division walked among the others like we were one of them yet we gathered information and sat with even the deadliest assassins within the riykon districts gathering any knowledge that would help bring this terror to an end. Day to day the faces of the people changed from a lively group of hard working people to a scared almost mouse like type of community as the people no longer freely walked the paths but scattered like mice from place to place too frightened to stay anywhere for too long. Kisuke and his team combed the grounds at the scene of each vicious attack analyzing every piece of clothing, every weapon, even the ground around the scene that was left behind. Slowly I watched as the time away and the tedious torture of the late nights take a toll on him as the answers to the puzzle continued to allude him. Night after night I laid in our bed hopeful that he would accompany me wrapping me up to his bare chest so that I could hear the beating of his heart before my tired eyes gave way to sleep. Those nights less frequent, a mere dream as I laid alone accompanied only by the mumblings of the man I loved hard at work on the other side of a wall that separated us in not only the physical sense but was rising between also in a spiritual sense. Tied of the heart ach that came as I silently sat back, watching as he became crushed by his own intellect, I began to spend nights away both in my own living courters as well as hard at work within my captains office. That late nights kept my mind at ease as he toiled away breaking from the man that I had come to love after all of this time. Each night away I struggled with the my decision, with our decision and the life that we had chosen fully knowing that our first priority was in fact the Soul Society. With this in mind I sat back not wanting to hinder his abilities or block his quest as he searched to answers that needed to be answered for the good of the Soul Society.
The first through third level lieutenants from each of the divisions gathered at the training grounds as we had done each week yet this meeting felt like a storm that raged out of control from a distance as I walked up onto the other lieutenants with a casual smile and the usual greetings. With each passing interaction, Aizen had begun to take more of an interest in my and in my abilities. At times I felt it was but a pawn in his attempt to make Kisuke uncomfortable as his attention and unwanted partnership had Kisuke brimming with a quiet jealously as he watched from afar and looked to minimize our interactions whenever possible. But within the comradely of the circle of lieutenants I looked to join in with the most powerful, to learn from the ones that I that knew more than me and to get close enough to the one that I could not trust, Aizen. I used this time to lewer him in, even engaged in mild flirting, anything to get him to confide in me.
Little was said as we walked onto the training grounds, always the first to cross blades as everyone watched from the sides, his smirk the only think to signal his decent toward me. This was a training of sheer strength an d cunning as we were unable to release our zanpuktos from their slumber. Though we had battled freely on that same field multiple times each time his blade crossed mine I felt the heavy drape of a dark aura wrap around us. One that didn't match to the polite, soft spoke, calm man that we were believed to know. On this day there was more as I watched his face void of all emotion and felt his strike with an uncontrolled anger as he came at me time and again; bringing to life flashes of our uncomfortable past encounters upon every crash of our blades. As I struggled to make sense of the trick I began to feel intrigued even stimulated by this unknown source. Was this the power of his zanpakuto, I questioned yet pressed in my mind for more answers to the puzzle that he undoubtly had spread for me, as no one else had ever seen his zanpuktos true nature I had to wonder if it had some form of control over the senses as our time on the field cam e to an end. Again his secrecy under the mask of a sheep reminded me to keep my distance to an arms length and reinforced the thoughts that I had never trusted the man from the first time that I had met him. Regardless I played the game with a cunning strategy and eyes in the back of my head awaiting the second that he lowered his defenses and I could see him and make sense of the two personalities that seemed to live within one body; one that only I seemed to see.
Once the training had ended we walked as a group to our divisions, dropping off one by one to return back to our stations and our individual work; yet Sosuke stayed at my side and chatted on about my captain and continuously probing into my time in the royal guard. Our pace had slowed away from the rest leaving us out of ear range from the rest as he pushed a conversation that I had continuously declined to speak of every time we came onto it. As always he gave in but with less grace with each question as he moved on with a cumbersome tone.
Still walking at my side he straightened his back and adjusted his hands behind his back, "So tell me what you have been up to these days? I know that you have been busy as I have not seen you around as much." He grinned looking down to me out of the corner of his eye, "For a long while you have been working by night… right?" I shook my head nervous to look at him as his stare burned through me with the intensity of 100 suns.
"I'm sorry?" looking at the ground I answered with a question, had he been referring to Kisuke, I thought as I continued on, "I have been working a lot of nights… for my captain," my voice stuttered as I quickly thought of a vague answer.
"Come on Saya," he teased sternly nudging my shoulder, "You must be working on something special?" his voice sending chills down my back.
"Special huh," I said back with a smirk, "Now Sosuke, even if I was," I paused to glance up at him, "That would be a conversation between me and my captain or at least captain class only." I said almost as if reprimanding a subordinate, hoping to end his questions
His smile widened, "Ah yes… the code of the squad zero liaison" he said with a hiss of subtlety, his gaze fixated forward.
Instantly I erupted in laughter at his accusation, "Squad Zero liaison… you do give me too much credit I'm afraid Sosuke!" I said back as my pace quickened wanting to catch up to the rest of the group that had not veered off.
He too shifted to my change in movement, "Hikifune took too much interest in you," he leaned into me whispering to me as we closed the gap between us and the few remaining lieutenants, "Your placements have not been by accident Saya. They might not see it but I do"
My chest tightened as I abruptly stopped and turned to him to dismiss his comments with little emotion tied to them, "If I was what you say I am, " I smiled back eyebrows raised slightly at him with a flintiness in my eyes and I tossed my hair only to be cut from my next sentence.
"If you are what I say that you are then you would still deny it!" he grinned with a victorious fire in his eyes as he brushed back my stray hairs behind my ear, "And a captains bedfellow…" his mouth made a clicking sound as if to sarcastically scorn me, "You are a naughty little one!" his smile now as cold as his touch upon my cheek.
I stood frozen before him as I held in every carnal need to retaliate physically my feet heavy as I turned my back to the group ahead, "Such accusations in one conversation could be problematic," I leaned into him firmly whispering and wanting to avoid further eye contact, "Don't you think?"
"For you!" he scoffed at my statement.
"No… for you Sosuke!" I snapped at him with venomous hiss, "Don't cross me Aizen," I said leaning back onto my heals and staring back at his hollow expression, his glasses glaring from the sun, "Don't think for one second that you know my place in this world," each word felt like a thousand pounds vaulting from my lips, "You know nothing about me!"
My eyes stared straight into his, sending goose bumps throughout my entire body; the result of a pure evil that seeped out as the grin expanded across his face, "Huh" he laughed out, "How you say so much with out as much as the specific words." he leaned his face into mine until I was able to see the reflection of my eyes in his glasses, "You have made yourself very… transparent!"
His hand slid up my arm while I stood shaking in a bitter puddle of fear and anger as he turned my own plan against me in a twist of words and a smile, "Koga will be very interested to know such news." his eyebrows bounced as pulled back and started t walk away toward the fifth division.
My head snapped in the direction in which he had begun to move, "Koga?" I yelled out to him, "That is what this was about?" I quickly rushed back to his side, grabbing at his arm to demand his attention once more.
An indescribable eerie chuckle bounced from his throat, "Oh Saya…" he continued to laugh coldly a my concern.
His laughter shut off with the sound of a far off greeting, "Oh, there you are Saya," my Captain hollered out to me, accompanied by the dark glare of Kisuke at his side. My head spun and I nodded my head, acknowledging their arrival into our intimate conversation and the end of Aizens curios prodding. I looked back to Sosuke as he slowly backed away with a smile then turned to set foot back to his division. Once again reflecting the man that was know to everyone but me as he slid back into to the invisible shell of innocence and valor that he masked himself in daily. Kisukes eyes veered into his figure, glaring into his back until his presence was no longer able to be felt.
"Yes Captain's," I bowed to the two men, "What can I do for the two of you?" standing up, I relaxed into a smile with the sight of my love back from his long mission away.
Kisukes face immediately lightened as he scanned mine with a love that shinned through plagued by hints of desperation tucked tightly into the void of his eyes. A bitter battle that quietly raged within his mind, forming questions with only the slightest look that could read after all of your years together.
"Please, you don't have to be so formal," Ukitake said as a father would say to his daughter, "I see that you have been sparing with Aizen again," he continued not knowing that Sosuke was a sore point between Kisuke and I, "He has stated many times that your techniques have improved," his smile bright on his pale face as he placed his hand onto my shoulder," So much so that I'm thinking of endorsing you for the next captain position."
I laughed with excitement and uneasiness as I still toiling with the part I played in Aizens scheme, was it all to help Koga, to get back at me for him, or was there more to it? I though to myself. I was at a loss with the comments that my captain had made, "Oh Captain, you give me too much credit but I would love the chance," I said with a nod, "I wont let you down… given the chance."
He grinned once more pulling on my shoulder to continue walking the path that the two Captain had been upon, "I would rather lose you to a captains place," he leaned into my shoulder to whisper down to me, "Than lose you to Squad Zero." I smirked back at me as, raising his chest back up right.
Kisuke now at my other side, "That makes two of us," chiming I for reassurance.
As the three of us set forth on our path back to the 12th division barracks, I glanced back haunted by the thought of peering eyes that could not be seen while attempting to listen to the continued conversation of my captain.
"It seems that Captain Urahara has come up with some rather interesting hypothesis as to the disappearances on his last mission to the world of the living," he paused looking back at Kisuke with a as if they were in cahoots, "I would like for you to accompany him on this next mission," his smile now bright no longer able to hold back his enjoyment.
I scowled back at my captain, angered not by the sweet gesture to give us some time away but by the thought that I would be so naive to his plans. I wanted to retaliate but know that he was doing this out of love and respect for the two of us as we had fallen onto these hard times away from each other. With a sign and a nod I agreed without one word as we continued on. My heart began to beat faster as we closed in on the twelfth division and nearly bounced out of my chest when Ukitake bid us farewell and Kisuke and I were left alone. I wondered in my head what man I was going to be faced with as we entered our room, away from the open ears of anyone but us. I walked cautiously into the dark room, my body shuttered as the sound from the door closing and the forceful patter of footprints that quickly closed in on me from behind.
His hands wrapped around my waist from behind, no longer the strong man that had escorted me into the room but suddenly a softened venerable man, "I'm sorry my love," his warm words sent shives through my spine, "I didn't realize," his face nuzzled intot the crook of my neck, "What my obsession was doing to you… to us."
My hand reached back into his hair as my chest shuttered in surprised and dismay at the pillar of a man that I had come to know had reverted back into the frightened young man that he once was as he continued on, "I came back to see a room, our room, had been left unlived in since I left." I nuzzled me head back into his while my fingers played in his hair, "This is our home and my actions had you thinking other wise… Ukitake told me." His words struck my heart to such an end that I froze, not knowing what to say. He turned my body slowly: immediately tear feel as I saw the glassy look that he desperately attempted to hold back, "This was supposed to be a place that we shared our lives, " his hand caressed my face as if running across silk, "Not broken by my obsessions," he look deeply into my eyes with a forceful love, "I can't lose you again Saya!"
I wrapped my hands tenderly around his neck; gaining the sign of relief and the relax of his shoulders that I had hoped for, "I never meant to upset you," my eyes fixated on his, "I only wanted to give you some space," I paused, trying to piece together my next thought, "And maybe for me as well. I knew that this would be a life less ordinary but it's just been rough… on us both."
My lips pressed to his while the tears flowed out like drops of healing that fell from my blue-grey orbs at the statue of a man that now cracked like sand under the pressure. I feeling that neither he nor I knew how to deal with in this immediate instance. I wrapped my arms around to embracing him warmly into me to comfort and put his fears to ease.
My hair cascaded down the side of his face as the soft hushed fell from my lips and met his willing ear, "How could you possibly love me after everything that I have put you through?" questioning his relentless devotion for me I teased.
He pulled back to meet my soaked eyes once more, "Just lucky I guess," he paused to brush back the wild hairs that framed my face, "I never liked doing things the easy way." he chuckled in a low tone then finished with a sigh as his mind shifted to the original feared conversation, "And what of Aizen?" his head shook back and forth in disapproval, "You know that I don't trust him Saya and I don't like that you are playing with that fire!"
My body tensed up as my hands slid down his arms, resting on his biceps, "I know," I nodded in agreement, "But if I'm to find out what he is up to, I have to get close to him. You know this as well as I do." His arms tensed as if every word was an act of defiance, "He will slip up." I snapped pulling from his grasp and feverishly stripping from my clothes replacing them with my nightgown, " and when he does I will be there to catch him like a mouse." finishing the sentence I released a sigh signaling the end of my argument.
Shaking his head in disapproval he now stripped off his shirt, "I'm not going to argue with you right now!" My eyes bowed to the strength behind his words, "No matter what you say, I don't approve. He is devious enough to turn this all around on you." He rubbed the back of his head brimming in frustration "C...Can we just be done with this for right now." begging as his hand reached for mine gripping it with a lovers touch and leading me to our bed. "I just need to know that you still choose to share this bed." his eyes scanned the emotions that ravaged my face as I glanced at the empty bed and then back to his smoky eyes.
I shook my head, "Always my love," I wiped away the reminisce of a tear that had fallen from my eye then lined my fingertips down his jawline; forcing his eyes to meet with mine to reinforce my words.
"Good" he forced a smile, I then realizing the stress that plagued his soul not only from our previous conversation but from something more that raged within his mind, something that only a few would be able to identify. Tenderly he nuzzled his face into my hand as my it now cupped to him, I looked to wipe away the worry with my love and regain the happiness that often brought light to his dark world.
"I'm always here for you" I apologetically said in a hushed tone. My free hand now reached for him resting over his heart, "Even when I'm not at your side" his hand reached up to meet mine gripping it tightly.
Turning to crawl into bed I guided him to follow me to join once more in the bed hat we ha shared for the last 8 years. His body steadily followed the same path as mine finally settling with a light hearted grim and an exhausted moan as his head nuzzled into the exposed valleys of my chest as we laid in the stillness of the dark room. My heart pounded as I silently grieved over the internal battle from our earlier conversation that I had been left to watch play out within the world the sparked within his eyes. The silence continued between us, me caressing and kissing his forehead, only to be broken by a light snore that resonated from his lips bringing an ease to my soul while lulling me to sleep.
My eyes shot open as a crash ripped me from my slumber, surprised to see that I was now alone in a bed set for two. Rubbing the sleep from my eyes my gaze now focused curiously at the door as I crawled from the bed to see what had caused such a noise.
"DAMNIT!" Kisuke's voice boomed out through the door followed by another loud crash of shattering glass upon the wall.
Quickening my pace I reached of the door, opening it only to be crushed by the sight before me; Kisuke a broken man on his knees his body shuttering in fit of anger. My feet pounded the hard floors, a sound that reflected the distinct thud of my heart in my chest, finally kneeling at his side. Placing my hand to his back, his body trembling under the weight of his torment, he shot back a look that bewildered even me, he was crying tears. Shifting my weight to lean into him my hand moved up the line of his back finally resting on his shoulder. With little warning he grabbed at it, an act that called for help in his time of need, "I.. I can't do it!" he sobbed under trembling words, "I can't let more innocent people die!" He glanced back to me, his eyes now dark and glassy as the tears freely fell.
He tugged at my wrist as my body shifted now to face him, me on my knees before him I placed my hand to the side of his face, wanting to bring him from this low, "What are you talking about?" I asked softly attempting to wipe the violent drops that continued to fall like rain and bring a calmness to him.
"It was a shinigami this time" his lips trembled, face blank from emotion as he looked at the floor shaking his head from side to side, "I have to protect them!" his hands now reached for my face holding it with an intensity that framed his voice, "I have to protect you!"
His eyes slowly flicker from dark to a light grey as he waged a war with his inner demons slowly caving under his own intellect. "I know that you can figure this out my love" I whispered onto his warm lips conviction in my voice.
"That’s just it…" his head shook in defeat snapping at me in defense, "I can't this time!"
My fingers held tight to his chin forcing him to watch my sentiment, "Now you listen to me Urahara…" my other hand snaked around taking a firm grip to the back of his neck and placing his forehead to mine. Our eyes so close that he could watch my eyes radiate with the release of every word, "You are the most brilliant man that know and that the sierete has ever known for that matter…" his eyes now bowed to mine, "You will figure this out… do you understand me!" I ordered heavy in breath wanting him to understand to full scope of my faith in him. I sighed, letting my grip relax my hands now slid to his chest, "Your fears are getting in the way." his hands reached to softly find mine once more, "You need to rest now… you will only frusterate yourself more if you continue down this path."
I stood to my feet reaching to help him from the venerable state that he had found himself on the lab floor. His face shook once more, asking a silent fogiveness against my hand that reach to caress it again, "Don't ever doubt that you are a great man and never give up my love…" My hand tightened to the curvature of his jaw, "Keep fighting damnit!" leaning in I gently kissed his lips "Because I will never give up on you… not even for one second." Taking his hand into mine, I guided him back into our bed and watched over him as little by little the intensity that raged within his soul fell from him like sand from an hour glass. His eyes fell under the heavy burdens of the night, giving in to sleep so quickly I watched over him as he gave up the battle and for peace that now filled his mind.
