Chapter 6- A New Life, A New Focus
Saya's POV: Our entrance into the Soul Society was as harsh and as eventful as rumored. For the first 6 months it was nothing but training as a unit from dusk till dawn, helping to create a bond that would follow us into battle. We fought together, ate together and even slept together on the floor of the 13th Division main hall together. I relished in the time as it allowed me the ability to focus on something other than Kisuke. I still saw his grey eyes every time I closed mine, making it hard to focus and breath at times. I couldn’t believe that I still wanted him; after all of the things that we had been through, I missed everything about him. As for Koga, well he was a constant reminder of the life that I left behind that day and continually tried to redeem himself from the comment that he made. Once the 6 month point rolled past we were moved to our individual rooms and assigned to our specific units within our divisions. This was the day that I was waiting for, my way to impress Ukitake Tiacho. My room was a quaint cottage, off of a pond filled with Koi, rumored to be stolen from the Kuchiki Family Manor. It was a quaint residence with only one large room with a bed and desk and a small bathroom in the back. As I looked around I was reminded much of my room at the academy. My living quarters were only separated by a small bridge to the Captains quarters in Rain Dried Hall. Taking the day to unpack the dusty bags and trunks that had been waiting for me since the day I had arrived, I was greeted by a white letter with the seal of Division 13 seal; a snowdrop flower printed on it. My fingers trembling, I opened it with excitement tering through the paper. As promised it stated that my assignment was to be in the intelligence unit where I knew that I would be able to work closely with Ukitake Taicho and I would be able to show him that I was lieutenant material. After taking time to explore and understand the layout of the Division 13 grounds, I reported to Rain Dried Hall at noon as my letter requested. I was the last of five young recruits that I somewhat remembered from previous classes at the Soul Academy. Before we could even get acquainted, Captain Ukitake walked in escorted by his lieutenant Kaien Shiba. I couldn’t help but to think that I was so lucky to be a part of this Division for not only the ability to partner with all of the other Divisions but for the amazing eye candy that were my superiors. I felt my face flush as they glided by with such grace and honor. I desperately wanted to be like them! Captain Ukitake’s voice was almost fatherly and as noble as he was as he introduced himself and his lieutenant to the six of us. “Each of you has been selected to this highly specialized unit for your very specific and unique strengths that you have exhibited through your time at the Soul Academy. I expect more out of each and every one of you than the entire Division 13 squad. You will be strategically partnered with captains and lieutenants from each of the other Divisions to help develop your skills in the areas that you are lacking. You will also be responsible for your daily responsibilities here as well. Unlike the rest of Division 13, this is a highly visible unit to all in the Soul Society and you will conduct yourself as such! I’m an easy going Captain as long as you are willing to do what I ask.” His demeanor was stern but approachable even as he explained our place in the Division. I could see kindness behind his green eyes that peaked out from behind his long white hair. “My lieutenant Kaien Shiba will be announcing your partnerships while I retire to some important business. Please look at him for any questions that you might have” As Captian Ukitake walked out of the room, lieutenant Shiba pulled out a scroll and began to read off the assignments…“Jiro is to be partnered with Ginrei Kruchki”
”Ren is to be partnered with Love Aikawa” “Yasha is to be partnered with Sosuke Aizen” “Hisao is to be partnered with Sui-Feng” “Jun is to be partnered with Kensei Muguruma” “Saya is to be partnered with Kirio Hikifune”Every inch of my being wanted to scream for joy as my mentor was announced but I held it in. Captain Hikifune was amazing at all of the key elements of Soul Reapers abilities and had even been rumored to rival Head Captain Yamomoto's abilities in some areas. She obtained Bankai faster than anyone in the Soul Society and personally put forth the last three candidates that obtained captain status. On top of that she was closely tied to the infamous Royal Guard of Division Zero. It had been rumored that she was already had the blessing of the Soul King to be the next Captain of Squad Zero, a powerful position that all Captains coveted. Lieutenant Shiba closed the scroll then tucked it under his arm as he finished giving the assignments.
"In Captain Ukataki's absence, you will follow me as if I were your captain, do you understand?!" He barked at us.
“Yes lieutenant” we yelled in unison.
A wicked smile came over his face as he looked at each of us, almost to size us up "Now let's see how strong you six really are!" he ordered as he walked with playful purpose out the doors and leading us out to the practice fields.
A look of wonderment graced my face as we walked through the Soul Society for the first time since the day I arrived. I couldn't help but to wonder what each Division looked like inside as we passed the entrance to each of them. Excitement rushed through my body again as I realized that I was one of the lucky few that would be able to grace the corridors of each.
Passing the first Divisions great doors, we came upon multiple large fields that were contained by barriers so that the rest of the bystanders would not be harmed by the battles raging within. Zen and Haku laughed with anticipation of their release as I could feel their power washing over me like warm water. Lieutenant Shiba walked us to the side of the field furthest away then continued to use a kido incantation to make the barrier populate around our space. One thing was different though, all six of us were inside the battle area with the lieutenant.
"Some people believe that we in Division 13 are too easy on recruits, that we are not as tough as other Divisions and that we are only products of high intellect and analysis" he yelled out then turned quickly to face the six of us "Shall we prove them wrong?!"
Fearing for my life, I pulled Zen from his sheath as his silver blade was glowing with a black flame
Yes, let's! echoed in my head as I released him from his slumber.
“From the dark depths of Hell, fly Zen... Flaming Battle Scares! “ I cried as long blots of fiery mayhem flew from the tip of my z`anpakuto finding its way to a surprised Shiba as he strained to deflected the attack.
His eyebrow raised as he was intrigued by the power that I had already possessed, then quickly took the opportunity to flash step closer to me to investigate my full combat skills. Not sure of how far this battle was going to go, I drew Haku from his sheath amazed at the brilliant blue waves that violently whirled around the long slender grey blade. Realizing that Shiba was near I called upon his icy death grip to accompany me in my fight.
“Across the frosted heavens roar Haku” brining the old blue dragon appeared behind meet stopping Shiba’s blade from getting too close.
He jumped back to look at the other recruits “Stay back right now. I don't want anyone to get hurt!"
Those words snapped me from my connection with my zanpakutos, causing them to retreat back into full their basic form.
"I don't want to be responsible for anything happening to anyone!" I said back to him as blade crashed to mine over and over again causing sparked to fly finally sweeping my leg rendering me victim with his sword to my neck.
"Funny thing for a Soul Reaper to say don't you think?" he said to me as he caught his breath "If you nothing happened to any of you would never learn, would never feel and therefore would never love, and that is no life that I want to live, do you?"
I trembled at the words that he uttered to me understanding them with complete clarity and respect. "No lieutenant, I don't want to live that way anymore!"
He smiled as he withdrew his zanpakuto from my neck "You are very strong but have a long way to go before you can properly control that power and I now know why you were partnered with Captain Hikifune. Only she will be able to teach you what you need to know to progress."
I stood up and bowed "Thank you lieutenant” then moved back with everyone else.
They all looked at me in amazement as to how I was able to fully release my zanpakutos as I had never done it in front of anyone at the Academy for fear that they would tell the instructors. That is except for Kisuke. Both of us used each other as experiments for understanding our zanpakutos’ power and pushed each other almost to death to get them to release fully. I just stood back and watched Shiba proceed to work with the rest of the group one by one as he had the rest of us work on Kido techniques at the other end.
"It looks like everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, don't they?" he stated as he walked by me.
We continued to push our bodies to their limits through the rest of the day and I found myself enjoying every time that I was allowed to release my zanpakuto’s as did they. I could feel the pure joy that radiated from Zen and Haku upon each attack that I commanded, as their auras grew brighter every time. Bruised and tired we found the starry night sky quickly comfort us with the cool breeze that rushed through the grounds.
Lieutenant Shiba ordered us back to our barracks “Grab something to eat and retire for the night. You are going to need the rest for your assignments tomorrow. Please meet your partners tomorrow in Rain Dried Hall at 9am”
The barrier around the training field disappeared as he ended to incantation. We all shook as the full force of the night air rolled over us, then began the long trek back together to the 13th Division barracks. We engaged in conversations about our day and what our assignments would entail. As we looked back and forth in conversation, we all had a new appreciation and bond with each other.
We approached the entrance to the 13th Division and I stopped to look around, allowing my unit to go ahead of me, as I felt a presence that I hadn’t felt since I left the Soul Academy.
“Kisuke, you know that you can’t hide your soul pressure from me!” I yelled out with a smile.I turned my head as he appeared right in front of me causing me to jump “You know that I hate it when you do that!” I snapped at him as I hit him in the stomach.
He bent over to catch his breath from the hit “Good to see you too, Saya” he said “Are you not happy to see me?”
I looked at him with confusion “Should I be, after how we left it last time? I took that as we were going our separate ways!? I just figured that you were back in the arms of Yourichi”
I could tell that my comments left him bewildered as they left him unable to speak “Sentimental feeling won’t get us anywhere, good night Kisuke” Then turned and continued to walked through my division doors.
I had made my decision to leave the past in the past, it was nothing but a childhood crush and if something more was to happen then it would need to be after some serious growing up.
The next morning I quickly got dressed and ran down to Rain Dried Hall to meet the Woman that was going to change my fate! I walked into the room to see Lieutenant Hiyori Sarugaki in the place of Captain Kirio Hikifune.
“Are you Saya?” she questioned with a look of disgust.
“Yes, Lieutenant” I answered back.
“Follow me” she ordered back as she began to lead me out of the room.
She was a small blonde girl but walked with purpose. I could tell that she was not to be underestimated. I followed her to the Division 12 barracks and finally to Captain Hikifune’s office.
A soft spoken voice came from behind a chair “Thank you Hiyori. Please take a seat Saya”
The chair turned slowly to reveal a beautiful older woman with dark black hair pulled back into a high ponytail that that tucked under, creating almost the look of a knot, with a small white strip of hair was tucked behind her right ear, possibly from age. She calmly explained what my training would entail and my specific goals that I was responsible for as I progressed. I found her demeanor and tone almost motherly, not anything like what I had expected from her profile. She continued to explain that my training schedule, both with her and with Hiyori, was designed to make me a more consistent fighter and would give me a better appreciation for and control over the full power that I possessed. As she finished explaining the process to me, she got up from her chair and moved over to the window.
Her eyes fixed on the clouds above and he tone changed more stern “If you live up to the rumors, and listen to my teachings, there might be a place for you on the training unit for Squad Zero at the end of your training. Are we clear?”
My eyes glistened with the idea that I would be able to join Squad Zero, “Yes Tiacho” I answered back.
“You are dismissed. We will see you every Monday and Wednesday at dusk. Be ready for anything and everything. Oh and your welcome Saya!”
I stood up and walked to the door, turned to bow in respect “Thank you Tiacho!” I said back once more before closing the door and racing back to my barracks.
As expected my time was split up between working directly with Captain Ukitake and Captain Hikifune. I worked late nights with Ukitake to really dive into a focus on research and analytics as he aligned me to work with him to uncover any issues or concerns that the Souls Society; potentially developing me to be a liaison to the rest of the Divisions and Division 13’s intelligence unit. As for Captain Hikifune and Lieutenant Hiyori, they pushed me to my limits making me stronger, faster and more strategic fighter. Spring turned to summer then winter turned mean as the 9th month of training came and went and I held tight to my intention to keep away from Kisuke to make it easier. I was sitting at my desk in the office running some reports for Captain Ukitake . As he walked in to gather the typical reports and deliver them to the captains
“Are you done yet?” he asked.
“Of course, Tiacho” I answered with a smile as I handed him the bundled reports.
“Would you like to help me deliver these tonight? I think it’s about time to introduce you to all of the Captains. Besides, this will be part of your job to debrief the captains once you are through with training”
I eagerly stood up “Thank you Tiacho! I would love to help!”
He escorted me between all of the Division Captains offices; proud in his introduction to each of the squad captains that I hadn’t already met. We arrived at the 2nd Division, only to have Ukitake’s cough flair up and bringing fourth blood with every weak hack.
“Could you take this to Captain Yourichi’s office? I don’t think that I can handle the stairs” he asked as he leaned on the door and handed me the documents and forced a strong smile.
“Yes Tiacho. I will be right back” I said with concern as I took the papers from his hand and proceeded toward the 2nd division offices.
My heart pounded rapidly in my chest as I walked down the stairs then down a dark hall, moving quickly toward Yourchi’s office for fear that I would run into Kisuke.
The door was cracked, thinking that she had already retired to her quarters, I walked in right hoping to place the documents on her desk and leave, but I was devastated by the scene that was playing out in front me as the door opened. Yourichi’s legs were wrapped around a shirtless Kisuke as he had her pressed against the wall kissing her the way that I so desired for him to kiss me again every night in my dreams. As an indescribable rage burned through my soul, I found my stronger self come out, forcing me to walk over to her desk tossing the documents onto it as my heart pounded out of my throat. The sound broke them from their wild embrace, sending their eyes to dart my way. I pushed my anger down and felt a bitchy sarcasm come over me as I addressed my surprised audience. Fire raged in my eyes as I let a poison drip from my lips,
“You really should learn how to lock a door Kisuke!” A fiendish laughter bounced from my gut as I turned to walk back toward the door.
“Fuck!” He mumbled aloud.
“Sure looks like a good one!” I snapped back as I raised my right hand up as if to wave good-bye without looking back.
Slamming the door behind me, I felt all the confidence that I commanded in the room wash off of me like water flowing off a waterfall. My chest began to burn as I closed my eyes then quickly made a move back down the dark hall way not wanting to breakdown. I couldn’t let him see that it hurt me to see him with her! I was plagued by my decision to walk away; I guess I just didn’t understand just how bad that decision would hurt once he had moved on. I made my way for the stairs only to be blocked by Kisuke as he flash stepped in front of me to stop me cold with a look of desperation and the smell of passion radiating from him.
Still enraged I snapped, “What?” I demanded as he just looked at me with a look of aggravation. “Get out of my way Kisuke!" I paused needing to break the tension I couldn't help but crack an uncomfortable joke, "Besides, it’s not good to leave a woman in that state!” I hissed as I walked around him.
“Saya…” he said sternly as if he had stumbled upon me in the act.
My hair whirled around me as I turned to look at him, “What could you possibly say that to make this situation better? You can’t expect me to be fine!" I yelled as I held back tears and glanced at the ground.
He started to speak as I cut him off “Before you say it again, YES, I made the damn decision… I’m very aware of this! It doesn’t change the fact that I still love you!”
All breath escaped my body and panic raped my face as I cupped my hands over my mouth, wishing that I could just cram those three words back into my throat. His expression turned from frustration to resentment due to the violent sting from hearing the words that he begged to hear for so long. Placing his hands on his head he scoffed then whispered at me “You would finally say it as I’m getting over you”
I felt my hands ball up into fists then threw them down to my sides “DAMN IT... I wish that I didn’t love you, I hate that I love you!” My hands gesturing wildly, “But I guess that I should say thank you!”
I began to move back up the stairs “For what?” he questioned as I turned to look into his eyes, now sad and holding back tears.
“For the closure that I needed! Now go back to Yourichi” I said in a matter of fact tone as my lips trembled, holding back the sounds of pain that plagued my heart.
Finally letting his emotions take control, he punched his fist into the wall as my comment found the button that he so tried to hide. Realizing that I would no longer be able to hold back my own emotions for much longer I then turned to meet back up with Ukitake who I had left just at the top of the stairs.
As I crossed the top of the stairs I could see Ukitake leaning on the door with a look of concern in his eyes. Letting me know that he had heard the whole conversation go down he asked “Are you ok?” I grabbed his side to support him on our long walk back “No, but I will be”
Kisukes POV:
The time a part from Saya was actually good for both of us. Time for both of us to get things straight, time to move on. I wanted nothing of the drama that we had left on under the cherry blossoms that last day at the academy. We needed to live separate lives to see what the world was like without each other to truly understand what we really wanted , needed and to gain a new prospective on our new situations. Again I found myself drifting to Yourichi secretly in flirting in our private trainings. But by night I saw Saya's brilliant blue eyes as I closed my eyes to sleep and continuously was haunted by dreams of our past and the possibilities of a future in the comfort of my slumber. Daunted with the task of pushing those feelings and deleting those images as I went on with my trainings and worked on my projects.
The six months of hell passed quickly as I became elected to the 4th seat position under the 2nd division. A role that would allow me to focus more on my strengths and experiments and get me back on track to the master plan that I had set in place only a few months back. Consequently I was not the only one with a plan for me. Yourichi had also set forth a plan into action that was little be know to me but I was a key factor in this complex scheme that would set events into play that I feared would affect the lives of so many. As more and more of the plan was revealed I strangely became an instigator in my fate and took charge of the process that I wished to dismiss; intertwining both my plan and hers. Figuring if I couldn't stray away from my fate, then I would at least be the one to lead it so that I could protect the ones that I cared for or at least spare them from some of the pain that would come from the decisions in my path.
As happened so many times before, Yourichi and I became more than friends. Bringing fourth a flame that never quite fully extinguished as Saya played a tug of war with my heart. How did she have such a hold over me? There was some comfort in our ability to just be together with no strings attached, no love and no drama. I felt confident that the animalistic sex was just that...sex. There was no fear that the bubble would pop as soon as she woke from my arms. In fact most of the time she playfully left me alone and as sick as it sounds, it was better that way. I finally felt as if it was helping me move on from the indescribable hold that Saya had over me. My siren… my hime.
Even with the uneasy feeling that coursed through my body, the night took control of my senses as Yourichi's flirtatious passes left me wanting her. A woman that was used to getting what she wanted, I couldn’t walk away if I wanted to. She sunk her chest into mine as I began to back away.
"What's the matter Kisuke? Are you tired?" she playfully asked then nibbled my neck.
My chest tightened up once more as I stared at the door and thoughts of Saya flooded my mind. Sensing my misdirected mind, Yourichi grabbed the front of my shirt, pulling me into her confident to break me from my trance. Her lips pressed to mine as she quickly pulled my shirt off, tossing it to the ground. I no longer could hold back, why should I? I reasoned with myself… what was I afraid of? I fiercely began to kiss her back pressing her body to the wall as she wrapped her legs around my waist. As her legs tightened around my waist my mind became blank until the sound of a large stack of bound papers crashing upon the desk broke us from our heated embrace.
My heart sank as I turned to Saya's eyes as they raged with an anger that she tried to coldly hold back. A skill that she learned so well from me. Her ability to command the room even took me by surprise as I held back the urge to snap at her for interrupting. Finally shaking myself from the surprise visit that left me in pieces of utter distress as she sauntered out of the door. As the door slammed shut I quickly debated with myself on whether to leave Yourichi and go after Saya or to stay and let her wallow in her own misery as she had let me do so many times before. No longer able to continue with our engagment I lowered Yourichi back to the ground; darting my eyes between her and the door.
"Well are you going to go after her?" Yourichi asked forcefully, "If you don't a lest go and talk with her you are an idiot!"
Shaking my head I laughed at her comment then flash stepped to catch up with Saya. In those brief moments I froze with fear as I found myself not knowing what to say to her but wanting to say so much. My shaking body blocked hers on the stairway leading to the 2nd divisions main lawn. Again her eyes were on fire, enraged by the sight of something that would have set me to near insanity if I would have walked in on it. As I looked upon her frame I wanted nothing more than to hold her once more; to let her know that I still loved her but how could I do anything but take the brunt of her anger. Something that I felt like I deserved in some twisted way as my breaths became shallow. I attempted to hold back all emotions as she laid into me finally allowing them to explode as those damn words fell from her precious lips… I Love You! How dare she say that now! I though to myself… she had no right! I thought as my fist found the wall and a few tears fell from my eyes. Again left at the same ending that we always seemed to find… one that we parted ways. Unknown to what the future would bring for us and if we would once again heal from these ridiculous games that we seemed to constantly play with each others heart. Stabbing into each other such as I wouldn't even do to an enemy!
