Sakuras In Ice (A Bleach Fan fiction)

28: The Squad Where She Belongs

This particular morning saw a little white cat laying at the roof of the tallest building in Seiretei, just basking under the warm glow of the sun. The pink ribbon wrapped around her tail sways softly with the wind and her tail occasionally swinging here and there.

Two other animals are with her. A small winged cat that is curled up on her stomach, sleeping peacefully and a stuffed rabbit that is sitting beside her, meditating.

It was a very fine day and Yuki decided to use it to relax and recover more. As she watches the clouds go by, she felt a familiar presence behind her and she sat down to greet properly.

"Yama-jii! Is something the matter?" Yuki asked, not removing her gaze at the clouds

"Nothing. Just wanted to check up on you." Captain Commander, in his gruff voice, said and sat down beside her

"Well, I'm okay. No need to worry. So which squad am I in?" Yuki asked with a smile

Captain Commander gave a visible chuckle with Yuki's sense of perception. He sat beside her and Yuki sat up holding Remilia against her. Captain Commander patted her head and handed her an envelope.

"Before we go to that, I have a mission for you."

Yuki took the envelope and placed the sleeping Remilia on her head. She opened it and read the contents.

"Are you sure you wanna give this mission to me? This looks like captain class." Yuki said while still reading

"That's why you can bring anyone you want with you. It's up to you who they are." Captain Commander replied

"What's the limit?"

"4-man group."

Yuki nodded and she already had some people in her mind to go with her. Just one last confirmation.....

"If I bring the Scarlets with me does that count as one or can I still pick 3?"

Captain Commander gave a chuckle and ruffled her head.

"Do as you wish." He replied

With that, Yuki jumped up and hugged Captain Commander before picking up her two demons and jumping down the building. The Commander gave another hearty laugh before standing up and making his way towards his office.

"A hunting mission?"

Ikkaku asked as he read the paper Yuki is holding in front of him.

"Yes! My very first mission before I get placed in a squad!" Yuki excitedly said while wiggling in Yumichika's arms

"That's very nice, sweet thing. But when will you start?" Said man asked as Yuki began folding the paper again

"As soon as I find the people that will accompany me." She said and gave them a thousand watt smile

"Well I suggest you better get a move in if you want to start right away." Yumichika said and placed Yuki down

"Yeah, I know."

There was a pause...

"So wanna come with me?"

"In finding people to go with you?" Ikkaku asked

"No. To the mission. Will you two join me in the mission?" Yuki asked while batting her eyelashes

Ikkaku and Yumichika looked at each other then back at Yuki. They both laughed and gave their affirmation to her that they will join. Yuki gave them another smile and tapped her chin.
