Captain Kokaru Seirento's Office
Kokarus Office is where Kokaru often spends her time. The office is a rather small building offering only two main rooms and one side room. One room being the main room where Kokaru sits and talks with her guests. It is also the room where Kokaru does her paperwork and along the wall is a sectional cabinet. Inside each section is a different set of papers. Kokaru is keen on keeping such documents separated and organized, making for quick and easy filing. A little bit away from the sectional cabinet is a small bed. Sometimes Kokaru works long into the night and so instead of traveling to the Squad Six Barracks, Kokaru is able to stay in her office. The second room is the kitchen and restroom area. The kitchen being the main focus of the room and the restroom being a small side room to secure privacy. The kitchen holds everything she would need. A fridge that seems to never be empty, a stove, and a counter. The restroom area also doubles as a closet or dressing room for the days that Kokaru stays overnight.

 Hito Takeyoshi
Hito came running through the streets of the Seireitei, jumping roof top to roof top in attempt to make it to his destination faster. He had heard startling news that a Captain for Squad 6 had been found. He wasn't exactly sure, but he had a feeling that it was her. Well, it wasn't much of a feeling at all, he knew she wouldn't return, especially after leaving so abruptly, but he somewhat hoped that she would, almost as if he was trying to live in his own world. This was very unusual for him as well, always being the more rational of all the captains. But it couldn't be helped, and it really wasn't that big of a deal. It wouldn't be long before reality settles in. Soon enough, the buildings that Squad 6 were responsible for came within eyesight. Hito's heart started to pound.
After Hito had arrived, he soon located at the office of the Captain, and without a second delay, kicked it down with all his might. This might have been too much since it went flying and soon crashed into the wall opposite of the door way. "Alright, you sneaky b***h... I let you live long enough for you to run away, and then you come back... He said with a growl. He had already drawn one of his zanpakuto, already resting on his right shoulder. He stepped inside the room and quickly surveyed the scene. It was much different than it had been previously, the color of the wall, the type of furniture, even the scent was much different. He didn't stop his act however... "Oi.. Are you going to just hide forever? Come out." He barked once more. He then stood there waiting for a response. His free left hand twitched, almost anticipating the hostile action that would come.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru SeirentoThe day started out as any other for the Squad Six captain. The sun peeked through her window and kissed her eyes while the gentle wind caressed her cheek, stirring young Kokaru from her dreams. With a yawn Kokaru slipped out of bed and went over to the window, peering outside at the already busy streets of the Seireitei. With a stretch Kokaru rubbed her eyes and went over to her cabinet to get dressed for the day. After brushing her air and eating a quick breakfast Kokaru would grab her zanpakuto and slip out the door to make her way to her office.
It was only a few days ago that Kokaru had been granted leadership of Squad Six and ever since then she had been busy remodeling the squad to better benefit her members and possibly attract guests into the humble squad. Today Kokaru would focus on the paperwork side of being a captain and so would be her schedule. Shutting the door behind her Kokaru walked into the kitchen and began to brew some tea. Just as she was pouring her glass, the unmistakable sound of her door being forced away from its home in the door frame. Her ear twitched in annoyance as she felt the vibrations from the door hitting the wall behind her, followed by yelling from a strange man. Keeping her cool Kokaru finished pouring her glass and pivoted on her foot to walk through the kitchen doorway and face her visitor. She sipped from her cup, keeping her eyes closed. "One would think that someone with your spiritual pressure would know better than to enter the office of a captain in such a unruly way." Kokaru opened her eyes as soon as she was finished with her sentence and gazed upon the man in her office. Already his sword was drawn out and he looked to be prepared for a fight. With a flick of her wolf like tail Kokaru simply closed her eyes again and took another sip of her tea. Casually opening her eyes Kokaru spoke calmly but kind of detached. "I am Kokaru Seirento, and you are?"

 Hito Takeyoshi
Hito turned his head to the woman who had appeared from the other room. She was certainly different than the last captain that inhabited these walls. Hito was slightly disappointed by this fact, but knew that it was doomed to occur. "Tch." He sneered before slowly walking to the other end of the room and picking up the door from one of its corners. The door itself wasn't looking too well as half of it was hanging off by a single splinter, and they could physically see Hito's foot mark from the kick. "It seems I'm in the wrong here. I apologize." He walked over to the window and opened it. He looked back down at the door and frowned. This didn't last long as he quickly ripped the door into the two pieces and chucked them out of the open window. Out of sight, out of mind. He then turned back to the woman that was standing in one of the doorways. "I will have to make sure to get you another one... My name is Hito Takeyoshi, Shinigami Extraordinaire." He said, adding his corny title. He noticed that she was an arrancar, much like a few others that had joined the Seireitei in hopes of finding a new place. He seemed to have gotten used to their presence since their first arrival and felt that the interaction with this new Captain would be much different than the others. Hito then raised his katana off of its resting place and had it drawn back into its sheath, seeing as there was no danger from a woman, with wolf ears and a tail, drinking tea. "Err... Let me be the first to congratulate you on your recent appointed rank..." Hito said, his words slightly broken as he was trying to make the situation less awkward. He thought of walking up to her and shaking her hand, but he was still too cautious for such physical greetings.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru SeirentoSensing the male approaching her, Kokaru simply closed her eyes and took another drink of her tea. Her right ear twitched as she heard him pick up the broken door. When he apologized Kokaru pushed herself off the door frame and walked into the room, setting her cup on her desk. "Thank you for apologizing, though I feel it should be me apologizing.." Kokaru replied softly while Hito chucked the door out the window. She walked over to her cabinet and pulled out a small stack of papers and set them on her desk for later. "It's nice to meet you Hito Takeyoshi, welcome to Squad Six. Thank you I plan on taking the best absolute care of this squad and its members." Kokaru looked up from her desk and faced Hito and a soft smirk on her lips. "So.... did you love her? Or was she on your hit list?"

 Hito Takeyoshi
The hairs on the neck of Hito's neck began to stand straight up after she asked her question. Was he that obvious? No... He took a deep breath, calming himself down from revealing too much. He turned his body around, facing her as well. He eyed her, trying to figure out how much information she really did know. Then Hito took a step back, pressing his back against the wall and crossed his arms. "I don't ever referring to the person I was looking for as a woman..." He finally replies. He was looking for a hint to a lead of how she knew about the previous Captain. Hisoka was on the verge of emotional break-down, very unlike how the Arrancar was once portrayed as. He wondered if she was rid of because she couldn't handle herself properly. The more Hito thought, the less rational it sounded. "She probably left on her own free will.." He thought to himself. He shook his head to escape from his thought processes and tried to look back on Kokaru. He started to memorize everything in the room, especially the new captain, Kokaru. Hito had the gift of photo memory and never left out a single detail out. His mind was programmed like a computer, and each memory a file within it. As he had finished scanning the room, he started to focus on the woman. As he was looking at her, his eyes started to get blurry. For some reason he could look at her so directly.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru SeirentoWith a light shruge Kokaru walked back into the kitchen and poured her guest a cup of her fresh tea. Returning she gave the cup to him and leaned against her desk, picking up her own cup and sipping from it. The steam was still floating into the air and the drink still warmed her throat as it slide down with each swallow. "You didn't have to. I did a little bit of research on the squad. Before I was made captain, Squad Six had a female captain. By the way you came into my office I only assumed you knew her and by how you shouted." Kokaru watched the man, wondering how she might know more about him. He didn't seem to be the type to carelessly sprout out information on himself, that much she liked about him. "If memory serves me, you are the captain of Squad Nine correct? You are a long way from home don't you think?" Kokaru kept her eyes softly on him, what all could she find out about this mysterious man, her ally in the Seireitei.

 Hito Takeyoshi
As Kokaru walked off into the next room, Hito used the time to try to rub his eyes. He wasn't sure what had happened just moments before, he figured the sun reflected off of something started to shine in his face. As she walked back in , he could see a cup of tea in front of his face. He grabbed it and finally took a real look at the Captain, to Hito's standards she was quite exposed. He gave a nod showing his appreciate for the drink, a tint of red started to cover some of his face. He looked down at the tea, steam rising up and warming his cheeks. It smelled good. "Well aren't you a very intelligent creature." Hito said, almost as if complimenting her. "I did know her, you can say we got along to some extent." She asked her about the squad he belonged to, and although she could have easily looked at the seal that had been placed on his back as he disposed the two pieces of wood earlier, he could tell that she had done a bit of research on all the Seireitei, taking careful account into the other Captains she would be dealing with. "Why yes I am. I'm the head of communication here as well, so I tend to know things before it gets out." The smell of the tea was soon getting to him. He took a sip from the cup.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru SeirentoTaking a drink of her tea as Hito spoke Kokaru nodded to him and smiled with a spark in her eye. "Being the new girl in the pack tends to make you learn of your comrades quickly, and who you should learn or stay away from." Kokaru pushed off her desk and flicked her ear as she looked out the window. She was feeling anxious but didn't know why. Her plans were to stay in her office all day but perhaps Hitos visit meant she was to spend her day outside. Turning back to face Hito Kokaru put her hand on her hip casually and smirked. "So what do you do around here? There's more to life then paperwork right."

 Hito Takeyoshi
Hito smirked as well as he could completely agree with what Kokaru had said. He had seen far too many newbies get squashed from something greater then themselves, because they wanted to get out there and make a name for themselves and not accept the help from higher ups. He had also seen many people killed for trusting the wrong people. Knowledge is the essential for surviving, understanding and thriving. "So... Which type of person am I then?" He said looking at her as he sipped from the tea once again. The tea was sweet, and didn't taste very funny at all. However, Hito had heard of a paralyzing poison that didn't have much of a taste at all. He doubted that she would go to such lengths but he always had a back-up plan for such occasions. "What do I do around here?" He repeated her, asking himself the question as well. His normal day started out in meditation, from there excruciating physical fitness exercises, then from there combat training, usually 3-on-1. From there he was usually too tired, he would check up on his squad and the communication streams that were sent out and go to sleep until the next morning. He looked at Kokaru and shook his head. I doubt she would last... He cleared his throat and then replied. "Well I have a few things I like to do... but I know a few interesting places to go. Maybe someone of your tastes would enjoy?"

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru Seirento"Hmm?" Kokaru tilted her head slightly as she studied the male before her. With a slight swish of her tail Kokaru took his question into serious thought. What kind of person was he? Studying his frame Kokaru easily could see that he was hard on his body, something she found attractively powerful. By the way he spoke and held himself Kokaru couldn't help but tilt her lips into a small smirk. She almost had her answer but one thing was keeping her from admitting it. Her eyes cut over to the missing door she now had. Closing her eyes Kokaru nodded and looked back at Hito. "You would be someone I learned from. I can tell you are a good ally in combat, but slightly unruly so perhaps a leader who could stand to be led every now and then." Kokaru glanced down at his swords wondering just how well he fought. The more she took the time to study Hito the more she was fascinated and interested in him. What did he have to offer her? His last sentence grabbed her attention and Kokaru smirked, baring her fangs a bit. "And what do you know of my tastes?"

 Hito Takeyoshi
Hito watched as Kokaru looked him over carefully. Even he would admit that it would be very hard to pin someone out with just first impressions. It would take much insight, knowledge in culture, and of course intuition to be successful at it. He then listened as she told him her answer and frowned. He brought his cup to his face and chugged the remains, before slamming it down on a nearby dresser. "I accept you." He answered, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand. He then started his way to the door, placing his hands in his pockets as he walked. "As for your tastes? Not a damn thing. I can only say from experience, ladies love restaurants and gardens. If you don't, I wouldn't mind seeing what you do like." He stopped and turned around. He let out a smirk before jerking his head to the side, motioning her to follow him outside. He planned on checking out the restaurant he seemed to like at first, and then maybe walk around to give the new Captain a tour. He knew that the area would be very new for her, and possibly had never gone around on her own as she had the primary duties of being captain come first.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxKokaru SeirentoKokaru smiled a bit as she thought about resturants and gardens. She shook her head laughing a bit to herself. "Resturants are just fancy places to eat the same food you can make at home and gardens are only perfect for meditating with your sword." Kokaru moved towards the door and glanced softly towards Hito. She wondered if he was the type to find such things fun. Though she did have to admit, the thought of such a rugged looking male in a coat and tie made her laugh on the inside. "But I do know that there are nice places to eat and talk here in the squad. Would you like to get better aquainted? Perhaps later you might have an idea? If not we can always spar." Kokaru smirked at her last comment, her curiousity spiking about his fighting style. To her that was the best way to get to know someone. You find out their weaknesses and strengths and they find out the same about you. Perfect for allies to be able to cover each other on missions.

 Hito Takeyoshi
It seemed that all females weren't the same, or at least their tastes... This made Hito even more curious. If she didn't like what all the other women he had accompanied liked, what did she like? Hito then looked towards Kokaru as she suggested a few places within her squad. It is true that he would like to know as much of her as he could possibly find out, and a spar would be perfect in fact. It has been such a long time since Hito had taken his fighting skills to the test, as it also being a long time since he observed a new opponent and developed a plan of action or strategy to fight them with. This was his first encounter with the new captain, and he also felt that it was best not too show too much of his abilities. Maybe showing a taste to measure exactly what the difference of strength is between the two of them. "Sure I'll follow you then." Hito finally said after deliberating within his own mind. Squad six has changed a significant amount since the last time he had been there, so another tour around wouldn't be so bad either. He brought one of his arms up, placed his fist against his side, and formed a hook with his arm. "Oi, you coming then?" He said with a slight blush.
