Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kas sight "I was'nt trying to attack you besides you got to me first and what nerve you have saying "True Qunicy" to me if i was'nt you would have no reason for singling me out." Kas said frusterated "I was simply making sure that you did'nt blow off my quincy cross." Kas said walking around the bench then sitting down "Well, i'm 16 and i go by Kasumi Tomomi but Kas will do just fine, ... and you are?" Kas relaxed as she put her book back in her book bag. feeling yuki's aura made her feel comfortable.

"Captain, are there any new orders? Any word from the world of the living about the Espada?"

"No." Zaraki shook his head. "And not that you're going to hear about it. Old Man Yamamoto sent the orders down. Until next week, you're an instructor. Your place is being held in the squad until you're done." Kenpachi turned to Haru. "And if you're any good, you're going to be given an unseated position until you can earn one."

Great... now I have no info on what's going on. Maybe I can check in with Kisuke tomorrow during the mission. "Yes, Sir. Guess I could use a break from you know who..." Tsu gestured toward his Lieutenant who was now trying to mess with Haru.

"Haaawws da naaccanamy, Paappy?" Yachiru spoke with a mouthful of hard candy as she proceeded to sit on Haru's shoulders, riding him like some kind of pack animal. Never having attended the Academy, she was someone curious about it, though she'd probably ignore whatever the student said, growing bored moments after asking.

Ukitake just smiled at Hikari weakly for a moment before responding to her. "No not good bye. Not yet." Listening to what else Hikari had to say Ukitake just smiled at her giving her a small nod in response to her statement. Then came the part about Tsu and seeing that she wasn't allowing him a last request quite yet he spoke up. "Then why not go ahead with it. If he already knows then it should be easy for you. Why not make me happy before I go? I still intend to visit my old friend no need to worry about that. However you never know when your time is up so I just wanted to say that before hand. It's alright Hikari-fukutaicho. Hitsugaya-taicho is a worthy person for you to admire. You have never let me down and can never let me down. Alright? Don't worry about me so much."

Yuu just fell silent after everything was said no longer pretending to be happy and just staring at the floor. It was odd to hear such things from his Captain which may have meant that the older man knew something that everyone else didn't. The possibility of that was what kept him silent pondering what exactly it could be yet somehow knowing what it was.

Hikari sighed. "I admire you, too though..." Why did it always happen that the people in her life she cared about were always so stubborn or cold or just liked acting like a thoughtless idiot? She shook her head. Maybe that's why I care about them... I just like to punish myself... She shook her head. "Well, you just work on getting better! I mean, look at your lieutenant! I don't think he wants to hear all this gloom and doom talk..." She walked over to Yuu and put her hand gently on his shoulder, smiling up at him softly. "I'm sorry, Yuu-san. I didn't mean to bring any of this up." She looked back over to the captain. "Speaking of Hitsugaya...taicho... did he get back yet? Did you hear anything? I've been... detained, with Kurotsuchi-taicho, so I was a little busy." She flinched while speaking those words. "If he came back, that would mean Unohana-taicho returned as well." And maybe I could ask her advice to help Ukitake-taicho. Because nothing I do seems to be helping much anymore. Not like it used to.

"Well, it's pretty much a drag." he said responding to Yachiru. "Sure." he said to the eleventh captain."

"Eth's gorrrninng?" Yachiru asked as she hooked Haru's cheeks with her fingers and pulled as hard as she could.

A grunt was the only response from Tsu received from his Captain. It was pointless to stay now that he had no missions for his squad. The substitute instructor turned and headed for the door. "I guess, I'll see ya in a week then. Haru, we're leaving."

After leaving the Captain's office, Tsurabisu decided that he'd let Haru take a look at his new living quarters. With my luck, they probably put the kid right next door to me... As the seated officer headed down the hall, he spotted an unseated member. "Hey," the fourth seat called to him. The young man, Tsu couldn't remember his name, came up as soon as he was called.

"Yes, Sir?"

"Some people from squad two should have been here a while ago to drop off some stuff for the new guy." Tsu gestured to Haru. "Any idea where they put it?"

The unseated Soul Reaper thought for a moment before shaking his head. "Not sure. But there was some commotion in the Officer's wing a while ago. That could be it..." As if questioning his own guess, the squad member glanced at Haru, not believing for a second that he could be an officer. All Tsu did was nod and headed in the direction of the officer's rooms.

The two of them headed down the hall that lead to the rooms belonging to the upper seated members of the squad. "Yumichika would know..." He was about to knock on the fifth seat's door when he heard a voice coming from the next room. Quietly, Tsu moved down to the next room. It was Ikkaku's, and from the sound of it, he had already been drinking.

"I tell ya, Tsu's gonna be sooo pissed. The way they jes tossed thats stuffs in his room an left? I'd love ta see the look on is face!"

There was the sound of Madarame's laughter followed by the quieter sound of Yumichika's voice.
"Well, I for one wouldn't want to be there. It's likely to get ugly. But I'm surprised. After they told the Captain that Maruchinu wasn't going to take place in any assignments for the squad, I would have thought they would have moved his belongings to the Academy."

Tsu had heard enough. He turned and glared at the boy that was to follow him around from now until who knows when. Without a word, Tsu went one more door down to his quarters. He slid open the door and there sure enough was a futon rolled up in the corner along with a box of belongings. And if that wasn't enough, a Zanpakuto was leaning against the futon.
"Son of a..." Tsu hadn't meant to speak so loudly, but realized he had when a roar of laughter erupted from Ikkaku's room. Tsurabisu was doing his best to cool his anger when something caught his eye. There was a sealed letter on his desk. He picked it up and opened it. It was a letter.

Fourth Seat Officer Tsurabisu Maruchinu -- Squad Eleven,
As stated to you by Captain Commander Genryuusai Yamamoto, you are to keep watch over Academy Student Haru Touben at all times. This is not an option. There was no signature, it it's not like Tsu really needed one. "Damnit..." He turned to Haru. "Make sure all your stuff is there." It was spoken pretty harsh, but at the moment, Tsu really wasn't in the mood to worry about some troubled student's feelings.
