Shinseina Hiragana Flame of The Sea.
Some people say you don't want to play with fire, because of how deadly it can be. But when I play with it, it turns blue. Oh, if you dare touch my family and love one's, you better run before I find you, because I won't think twice of killing you on the spot. At that moment before death, you better pay to whatever god you believe in, Because I'll be sending you to be Judged for your sins. ~~~
If you dare to touch my flames I'll make sure They leave a nasty burn on you, To remind you of how stupid you were to touch them. And if you dare touch anyone in my family I'll make sure you have the most painful death, Because no one messes with us. ~~~
Jasmine open the doors to the captains meeting hall and left the door open so the other captains can come in even knowing the meeting isn't for awhile or till all of the captains show up.
Hiragana himself stand outside of the door waiting for the captains to start showing up.
[ yay short post ]
~~ Judgement may be the start of something new. But you will never know where you would be going in the end. But with my strength, and will power, I'll protect anyone that needs me. I won't leave no one behind, I'll push on and keep on fighting until the end of my days. But I know I won't be alone during this fight. Even if I stand alone.
~~ Together we stand, together we fight, together we are one. We would never be alone during the fight till the death. You have my soul and have your heart. Together we will push and won't fall. Because our strength is greater together.
❖ The Transcending Captain of the Fifth Division ❖
↳↳............A figure that was becoming increasingly familiar to all of those who weren't in his division appeared at the entrance to the meeting hall with their left arm still in bandages. Giving a quick glance around the room he sighed at the realization that either he was too early or too late for the meeting that had been called. Turning his gaze to his left the young Captain saw the Commander's Zanpakutō standing at attention so with this he safely assumed that he was early. With a nod of his head towards the Spirit he made his way into the room and walked over to his designated position. From there he would simply stand at attention as he waited on the others.
XXX After assigning her Squad their duties for the morning, Tatsumaki had left for the meeting that she had been called to, completely engulfed with anxiety. She was barely used to speaking up in the meetings with her fellow Lieutenants when asked, and she was certain she would fair even worse when surrounded by a group that completely out classed her. She'd attempted to get as much sleep as she possibly could have under the circumstances, but Squad Four was still tying up their loose ends of reconstruction and trying to clear the Medical Bay of their patients so it was difficult to go more than a few hours without being woken up again. The petite girl brought a hand up to her face, yawning and rubbing her eyes as she walked, her other arm cradling a notebook. Approaching the meeting hall, she paused near the entrance to bow to Hiragana, smiling at the spirit. "G-Good morning, Hiragana." The fact that she was greeted with a familiar face helped her nerves. Stepping inside, she was relieved to see that she hadn't arrived too late, and she offered the same quiet greeting to Jasmine before turning her attention to the man she had never met before.
Taking in a deep breath, she attempted to introduce herself. "U-Um.. G-Good morning, Captain Shintarō.." Tatsumaki trembled like a leaf before him, bowing quickly to the man. She had never met him before, but the names of the Captains were well known, and she was at least aware of who was in charge of Squad Five. "I'm Tatsumaki Hyousetsu, L-Lieutant and acting Captain of Squad Four. I-It is a pleasure t-to meet you." When she noticed that his arm was bandaged, the small smile faded from her face. "Are you injured? I w-would be happy to help, if you'd like." Healing was at least something she had confidence in, but she would only do so if she got permission from the Captain.
A flicker of the shadows. One moment there was noone there, and then the next, a man appeared. He wasn't in his traditional haori as he hated wearing the damn thing normally. But instead of his normal orange jacket, the black haired individual stared out of the confines of his black hair wearing an almost military in style jacket, black and red adorning it as his three zanpakuto clinked on his waist, the white blade crackling on occasion. His vision was piercing, even as he walked past Hiragana and lightly tapped his leg with the black tail that trailed behind him, thin yet powerful and sinewy. It wasn't like the Captain of the Second Division to actually show up at these meetings but...well, Hinata wasn't here to get him out of it. So quietly, he took his position, looking at the few burns on his hand from the night prior's training session. More scars it would seem, even as he looked up and nodded at the others in the room, pulling out his pipe and beginning to smoke the cherry scented tobacco.
❖ The Transcending Captain of the Fifth Division ❖
↳↳............Kanzaki thankfully didn't have to wait all that long as just a few moments after his arrival another person showed up, and following them yet another showed. Perhaps he wasn't as early as he thought, or just maybe there were some others like him who wasn't paying attention to the time and simply showed up in hopes of not missing the meeting and getting a mouthful for it later. The first of the two to show up was a woman whom he knew to be the Lieutenant of the Fourth Division who also was nicknamed the Tornado of Terror. As per usual, or what he assumed to be a usual occurrence, the woman was donned in her traditional floral decorated kimono with matching flowers in her hair. As she made her way across from him he couldn't help but notice the height difference between the two, never having actually been this close to her in a clear state of mind. When she greeted him he simply raised an eyebrow and continued to tower over her before eventually giving a faint nod. "Good morning, Lieutenant Hyousetsu." He watched on as her eyes trailed to his bandaged appendage and gave a dismissive shake of his head before giving a rotate of the wrapped arm's shoulder.
↳↳............ "It seems you do not remember me.. but I suppose I do look much more different now that I did on that table of yours in such a disheveled manner and covered blood nonetheless.. My arm is doing fine and should be healed fully by the end of the week, it's just a bit stiff. Thank you for your concern though, but I have faith that the work you did that day is all that I need." Oh my, well that was a surprise. The usual quiet and seemingly stern Kanzaki actually said more than a small handful of words to someone, and in a friendly-ish manner at that? Someone better let the Devil know that Hell is about to freeze over. With his free hand, the Captain would trace the scar hidden underneath the bandages to show where and the size of the wound as if to help job the woman's memory. Of course he was referring to the day of the attack a month ago when he so foolishly allowed himself to get hit, but then again was it foolish if he was taking the blow for another? With what he had told and showed her, he hoped that she would be able to remember him at this rate.
↳↳............Kanzaki finished speaking in time to turn to the other who had entered the room, a male of similar height to his own with black hair that he knew to be the Captain of the Second Division simply because he was there once before and he like to keep tabs on that place, that and Eko had a bit of a name for himself. As golden eyes wandered over to the male in question Kanzaki returned the nod he had received before turning his attention back to the short woman that stood before him.

XXX►"Thank you for being a friend. Traveled down the road and back again. Your heart is true you're a pal and a confidant..." No matter how much Varen tried to shake away the oh-so compelling lyrics, they would resurface again along with the reoccurring memory of his beloved son howling to the lyrics and standing on his hind legs to dance to the iconic theme song. That was the reason Varen had assumed he was late: Because he was having so much fun! It was something the man always relearned; time is irrelevant when you are enjoying it with your loved ones. For the majority of the early morning and into what felt like ten-ish or even less, Varen and his son were marathoning Golden Girls episodes; they were five episodes shy from finishing the series, something Varen wasn't too keen on doing when he got home, he didn't want any of his beloved golden girls to separate or something; that would be far too sad!
Varen wheeled to his destination in a calm stupor, which was the right word to describe Varen right now; he was far too calm for something that believed he was being irresponsible, unintentionally of course. Knowing he was late, or so he assumed, he still maintained his composure and would gracefully wait for a finger wag or a smack to the back of the head; something to make him realize that he was that hardheaded. But, much to his surprised when from afar, he could see the vast meeting hall through the large doors, helmet rested by his side, Varen had realized that he was actually on time, maybe even early! But before he decided that it was appropriate to walk in, the captain gave a playful salute to the Head Captain's zanpaktou. "Ehe, hey there." He said in his usual deep pitch; a pitch meant to always sound intimidating, was actually playful, bold possibly.
Varen stepped into the meeting hall "I have either entered through a rift in time, or I am actually early...!" Varen whispered in a near-squee of childish joy. Right after, he maintained his calm composure, not allowing himself to do a miniature dance of victory: That would be for later. The man cleared his throat and with his free hand, he waved to everyone in the room, mouth a very very quiet "Hello!" Varen then turned towards the Head Captain's direction and wave to her; this was her home after all, so it's only polite to individually say hi. Turning on his high-heel, Varen looked around: There were two captains, but Varen could have sworn that the smaller and adorable-as-all-hell-girl wasn't a captain. Either she was an acting captain, or Varen really needs to pay more attention to who actually attends the meetings. It was funny though: You had the strikingly handsome Kanzaki who was quite the giant, then the elusive and rare Eko present... And then a small girl right there, bless her soul!!!
Varen looked around the room for the nearest corner and made himself comfortable; thankfully, this was his designated spot. Slowly, the man would sneakily take out his phone and pray to whoever would listen for a 4G hotspot. Much to his pleasure, four bars were raised in his honor. "Golden... Girls..." He typed into the search bar of his streaming site. As he would wait for other captains to arrive, Varen would finally get to discover if Dorothy would ever find love. "Dorothy... Please...!" He whispered to his phone.

▬▬ι═══════ﺤ◊◊◊◈Shou Fukuda◈◊◊◊═══════ι▬▬ ▬▬ι═══════ﺤ◊◊◊◈Captain of Squad 7◈◊◊◊═══════ι▬▬
Shou appeared in the center of the hall after flash stepping her way there from the Squad 7 barracks. Stopping she looked around and saw no one else, of course she wasn’t considering this was the hall to the captain’s meeting hall and normal squad member knew to give it space. Looking closely one would notice that for the first time since her master’s passing-she looked tired. Her face read of someone zapped of all of their energy, but with what she has been doing it would make sense. Along with the past month and especially yesterday Shou had been holding extra training for her squad. She wanted them to be prepared and ready, but she was inadvertently overworking herself. Seeing that Tamen was working instead of resting at his home yesterday made her so angry she had ran back to the barracks held extra spars on top of the already extra load. No doubt her squad is as worn as she is, probably more not many can hold their own in a hand-on-hand spar against her. She stretched her arms out and let out a long yawn. Better to let it out than to yawn during the meeting. She then patted her cheeks with both hands lightly to try and add to her awake state. When she focused to where she was she felt her face suddenly heat up- said at the entrance was the Head Captain's zanpakuto. "How long has he been standing there?!" She must've been really out of it not to notice him. She immediately rested her arms at her sides then let them rest behind her. She quickly walked towards the door, giving the spirit a quick, "Good morning..." then entered.
When she entered already Squad Two, Five, One and Fourth’s Lieutenant were already present with ten's captain looking like he had just arrived as well. She didn’t think about Tamen getting there on time, she still felt agitated at him at the moment. From a glance it looked like Tatsumaki was her usual nervous self- she's a sweet girl and Shou felt for her that she had so many responsibilties now at Squad Four. She waved her hand hoping the girl would see then she continued on her way to her spot. It was also surprising to see Captain D'Alia early to something like this. She titled her head at his behavior, it looked as if he was whispering something. She approached him wanting to understand it and tapped him on the shoulder, hearing him whisper something about a 'Dorothy'. She couldn't help but grin and gave him a hello wave, "Why are you talkin' to yourself?"

XXX►"Oh man, these ladies are the embodiment of fun!" He whispered, jealous that he didn't have an eccentric group of ladies in his life to party with until they are at the age where it's taboo to be drinking or motorcycle riding. "I should make friends with a few older women and we could all go shopping or something..." he says quite sincerely. "I hope they would like motorcycles, maybe we could take the bus instead..." He whispered, huddling into his ball of social protection. While he didn't mind talking to others, he was spending as much time with his golden girls as he could, they needed him to cry about their dilemmas and breakthroughs. Who else was going to be their cheerleader?! Who else was going to pray that one day Dorothy finds her true love?!
Varen was getting a bit too into this, he almost didn't take notice the slight tapping on his shoulder. Slowly, the captain would turn his head to the source of the tap; no other than Captain Fukuda. "Ah! Hello." He says with a dainty smile. To make sure he didn't miss anything for the few seconds he looked away, Varen would rewind the video a bit back and pause it before talking to his fellow captain. "I talk to myself because I can only hope that I'm good company. Aha!" He says as he puts his phone away and rub his hands together. "Wanna test it out?" He asked playfully, his smile not leaving his face. "So, how have you been lately Captain Fukuda? Aside from the incident of last month and all..." Varen trailed off and ended with a sigh, his smile shrinking a tad bit at the thought of the events of last month; but like always, he wasn't going to let it get him down.

Jasmine nod her head with a smile as she watch as her captains came. She turn her head for the moment and then she notice one of her captains is still in the corner with a phone out.
With a sigh she walks over to Varen D'Alia and stand infront of him. Without any warning she took the phone from him and turned it off before putting it in her sleeve. "Captain Varen D'Alia. Get to your spot and wait with the others. And you get your phone when the meeting is done. Also this is a warning if you dare bring your phone back in here I'll break it." Jasmine said. With her eyes right on him. "Now get up, the meeting is going to start shortly." She said, as she walks away from him and back to her spot.
Hiragana however was greeting the captains as they showed up. Only two left.
~~ Judgement may be the start of something new. But you will never know where you would be going in the end. But with my strength, and will power, I'll protect anyone that needs me. I won't leave no one behind, I'll push on and keep on fighting until the end of my days. But I know I won't be alone during this fight. Even if I stand alone.

XXX Climbing the top of the stairs and finally able to see the front door leading into the meeting room, Captain of Squad 12, Chuku Raito gazes at the doorway with a happy look in his eyes. His first meeting as a captain and by the looks of things he isn't late so that was also good news for the captain. Adjusting his captain haori he takes another step and looks to see the Head Captain's Zanpakuto spirit standing next to the doorway and Chuku gives him a nod before proceeding in making light clunking noises with his walking cane. Chuku walks threw the door way and notices that there were four other captains here as well as a LT and let out a low sigh knowing he wasn't last as well. Adjusting his scarf to better cover his mouth and adjusting his grip on his walking cane, the rainbow headed captain heads to his designated position and goes down on his left knee and pulls up the sleeve of his right leg showing he had a robotic leg, setting his cane next to him, reaching into the right side of his shihakusho he pulls out a small tool kit and opens it up and does a quick fix on a bolt that was about to fall out. Once done he puts it away just as quickly as he got it out, grabs his cane and stands up, his right leg sleeve dropping as he rose and waited.

XXX The height difference between Tatsumaki and the Captain did not do much to help calm her nerves, and she cowered slightly from him, both arms brought up to her chest. When Kanzaki mentioned that she had seemingly forgotten him, the woman looked even more horrified, her eyes widening as she brought her hands up to cover her mouth. "I-I-I'm so s-sorry, C-Captain!" She bowed to him again, her cheeks flushing a deep crimson in her embarrassment of how rude she seemed. Truly, the last month had been a blur for the Lieutenant, and she'd had so many patients in and out of the Medical Bay that it was nearly impossible for her to have kept track of every single one. Most of what she seemed to remember was the frantic movements of her Squad members and the blood. So much blood..
Tatsumaki shook her head. No, she shouldn't have been making excuses for herself. She was certain that Jisaku would have been able to keep everything straight in his mind, even with all of the chaos, and at the very least she should have been able to recognize a Captain. "I-I-I..." She was going to apologize to Kanzaki again, but his movement of dragging his hand against his bandaged silenced, her. Instead, she nodded vigorously to show that she really did remember him now, but she still felt horrible about the slip up. "Y-Yes, of course.. D-Don't hesitate to come b-by the Medical Bay if i-it is not healed by then." She offered him a nervous smile and returned to her spot, the blush slowly fading from her face as the minutes ticked by.
When Eko entered the room, Tatsumaki bowed to him as well, offering him a polite wave and a quiet: "G-Good morning, Captain Tsurugi.." The same treatment would be offered to the other Captains that entered the meeting hall, but her brief encounter with Kanzaki had scared her off from trying to make more personal conversation. At the very least, she felt relieved when Shou returned her wave, and it boosted her confidence ever so slightly. She was curious about what Varen was doing, but she was nowhere near brave enough to move from her spot, finding it much safer to stand where she was expected to be for the time being. She did, however, turn to look at the poor man as he was reprimanded by the Head Captain, although the look on her face made it look like she was she one who had gotten in trouble. Her body tensed, and her face flushed as though she were feeling the embarrassment for the Captain, but she returned her attention to staring at her feet promptly after Jasmine walked away from him.
She passed the time fidgeting with her hands, only looking up again when the new Captain entered. This time, Tatsumaki was sure she had never met him. Even if the month had been so crazy, she would have remembered rainbow hair. She couldn't greet him by name, but she bowed to him respectfully nonetheless.

▤ Tamen Yasaibatake ▤
Waking up to you never felt so real
-------------My dreams don't comfort me
My demons lay in waiting
He was not looking forward to this at all. Bad enough his- well all of him- was bothering him today but now there was a meeting with all the captains. Since yesterday Tamen was able to actually get some work done, who knew? Of course this came at the expense of Shou leaving his house in a huff. Okay more like a rising volcano of anger. Since the attack a month ago he had been working on ramping up security with the Seireitei as much as possible. What happen then when the enemy was able to was easily attack made him sick that it happened so quick and so easily. He hoped during this meeting he could talk with the head captain about some new security measures he was working for the past few weeks. He ruffled the papers in his hands reading over them as he walked, occasionally rubbing his pack with his left fist. Lucky no was walking in front of him or else he wouldn't ran right over them. He sighed and stuffed them into the inner pocket of his captain's jacket. He raised his gaze and caught sight of the Head Captain's zanpakuto outside. Looks like his stroll was longer than he thought. He quickened his pace and entered the hall, but not before patting his palm on Hiragana's shoulder and smiling, "Greetings Hiragana doing well I hope."
As he let his hand slip off the spirit's shoulder he froze in place before the entrance. Shou was there, wait of course she was going to be there she's a captain! He heard about all the extra training that happened yesterday from some of her squad members and he can't help but blame himself for putting such a joyful person in such a angry mood. She didn't appear to notice his presence, but was occupied with Varen D'Alia, no telling what he was doing now. He slowly moved to his spot, but stopped seeing Tatsumaki from Squad Four. She certainly looked frightened, and he could understand many reasons why. He past a glance around, the meeting was officially starting yet, so he changed his course and stepped over to Tatsumaki. He smiled like he usually would and greeted the girl, "Hello Lieutenant Hyousetsu. Are you doing well?" Hopefully he wouldn't make her feel even more uneasy than she already did. At least that was something they would have in common right?

Jasmine let out a small sigh as there is one yet to show up most likely he is going to be late once again. "Okay everyone line up. Let's get this meeting started." Jasmine said, as she walks over to her chair and sit down. "As you know some of the other captains are not here. That is because they are doing missions that I sent them out on. As for our Kido Corps Captain he is, however late." Jasmine said, as she crossed her right leg over her left knee and put her hands together nicely in front of her knee. "First off thank you for joining us Tatsumaki Hyousetsu. In case anyone was wondering why she is here, that is because she is the current acting fourth squad captain." Jasmine said, with a strong loving voice.
"Secondly, It's been a little over a month since the last attack. " She stopped for moment and looked down at the floor, then shook her head as she looked back up to glance at everyone. "So damage reports, people. I know some of your squads were hit with some attacks and I want to know how its clearing up. And Tatsumaki. Squad four has been hit the hardest. I hope its clearing up nicely with the rebuilding. So let's start with your report, please." Jasmine said, looking right at the temp captain.
Once Hiragana heard Jasmine started the meeting he walked into the room and closed the door behind him. He walked past the captains and stood right beside Jasmine, listening to her talk.
~~ Judgement may be the start of something new. But you will never know where you would be going in the end. But with my strength, and will power, I'll protect anyone that needs me.

XXX When Tamen approached her, Tatsumaki followed the same pattern as before. She bowed politely, offering him a gentle albeit nervous smile and returned his greeting. "G-Good morning, Captain Yasaibatake.." Besides Jasmine, his presence was the one she was most accustomed to as he stopped by the Medical Bay due to his chronic pain fairly often. The past month she had not seen him though, and for a moment she looked concerned as she pondered this. Had he actually stopped by at some point and she had forgotten her interaction with yet another Captain, or had he been neglecting his own health? "I am doing.."
The Lieutenant's smile faltered for a moment at the question of how she had been doing herself. It had been a long, tragic month and she was exhausted, but she didn't want anybody to waste their energy worrying about her when there were more important things to focus on. "I-I'm doing as well as I c-can, considering everything.." The smile returned to her face quickly after that. "How about you, C-Captain?" Tatsumaki wouldn't talk about anything specific with the man to maintain his confidentiality, but she wanted him to know that her Division was always available to assist. "Please don't hesitate t-to ask for help if you need it."
Jasmine's voice alerted her that the meeting was beginning, and she offered a small head bow to Tamen as a farewell. Shifting her focus to the Head Captain, she felt a small tinge of disappointment upon learning that the Kido Corps was absent for the time being. She had hoped to use this time to discuss a way to protect the Medical Bay from damage if another attack were to occur, but she would have to wait for now. When Jasmine spoke her name, the young woman jolted, cheeks turning red at the sudden attention. Quickly, she bowed once more, meekly stuttering out: "I-It's an honor.." The flush on her cheeks only deepened when she was called upon to start off with her report.
Tatsumaki froze for a moment, eyes wide as though she were a deer in the headlights. "M-M-Me?" Her heart skipped a beat as she looked nervously at those gathered before shifting her gaze to the floor. She reached a trembling hand into her pocket, pulling out a folded piece of paper and opening it so that she could read off of it. "S-S-Sorry.. I.." She swallowed nervously, and her voice grew quieter as she continued. It was quite clear that while she fit the empathetic healer rule well, she still had leaps and bounds to go before being an effective leader. "U-Um.. M-M-Most of my squad's b-buildings were d-d-d.."
Unable to get the word out for the moment, Tatsumaki lowered her head partially in shame at being unable to communication effectively, and partially to hide the tears that had begun welling up in her eyes. How many of her fellow members had she been forced to put in body bags? How many people had they been unable to identify because of the monsters that had left behind only half eaten remains or limbs? Tatsumkai's stomach churned at the memories, and when she raised her head again, her skin had changed from pink to pale. She coughed once to clear the lump from her throat and continued. "D-Destroyed.. We have repaired m-m-most of the damage b-by now.. B-But we.."
Her voice sounded strained, and she took a moment to cough once more. "W-We suffered many casualties, too.." Trembling hands brought her note to her chest, and she took in a deep breath trying to steady her words and managing to raise the volume of her voice ever so slightly. "I.. I would like to discuss ways t-to.. To improve the defense of our buildings s-so this never happens again."
