88 Leaving (2/2)

Back at the Urahara store, Itsuki opened his one closed eye and got up, dusting off his clothes. Sighing to himself, he picked up his zanpakuto and started practicing.

Within a group of abandoned warehouses, three flashes were seen clashing at one point or another. They turned out to be the three girls. Although Rangiku was the weakest of them, she was still able to breath but only slightly. All three had at some point trained with Itsuki which had resulted them having better reflexes than others.

They all had determined faces as they kept seeing the image of a shocked Itsuki with a wound on his torso. He hadn't spoken much since then but their image of him being invincible had instantly shattered the moment of that incident. It reminded them, that no matter how strong he looked, there was still a chance of something bad occurring.

Though, either Soi Fon or Yoruichi could instantly take Rangiku down, they were holding back in case the other took the chance to attack. Rangiku couldn't help it, they were already fully-fledged Shinigami when she was still at the academy.

As the three continued sparring, no news was heard from Itsuki when all of them felt a fluctuation of reiatsu coming from the direction of the clinic. It was quickly stopped but only a couple days of days later, Itsuki got a prompt from Seikyo. Closing one of his eyes, Itsuki saw Rurichiyo leaving her house in her spiritual form. She was currently walking through the riverside of Karakura town while talking to herself only to trip and meet Orihime. A fight followed while Orihime was able to repel the enemy for a bit longer, it still seemed that she was hesitant to deal the final blow. With Ichigo and Rukia entering the fray, the enemy was quickly caught but was able to escape only to commit suicide.

Knowing what was going to happen, Itsuki finally left his training grounds just when Ichigo, Rukia, Enryu and Kenryu left for Soul Society to look for Rurichiyo. There was only so much one could only do with training. Hinamori and Yuki who were sparring, came to a stop when they saw him leave.

””Captain!””

Itsuki nodded while he started sweeping through all information he had on the current and former members of the Onmitsukido. Finding Amagai Shusuke's information he glanced over it and found nothing wrong with it. He was just a capable Shinigami that was a patrol group's leader, although Itsuki did oversee the Onmitsukido's training and had memorised everyone's files he didn't pay much attention to them.

There was a strict command and every member did what they were told, no questions. Soi Fon thought process still hadn't changed. She always kept a distance with their subordinates, believing that personal struggle builds character.

Entering the Urahara store, Itsuki sat down at the usual table while a silence descended onto the room. Urahara and the others stood there while the former brought a fan to cover his mouth.

”Finally out of training, Itsuki-san. I had heard you got done in by a kid.”

Jinta who was sitting by the side could swear that he heard the sound of glass breaking as sweat gushed out of his boy,

'Oioi, boss, why are you riling him up…'

Tessai was also surprised but was even more so seeing the lack of response from Itsuki. This either meant that Itsuki didn't think much of it, or that he was really good at hiding emotions. The calm look in Itsuki's eyes retained itself as he took a sip of tea given to him by Ururu. Hinamori and Yuki heard this as a menacing look surfaced on their faces, but they restrained themselves seeing Itsuki's lack of action.

”It was just a moment of distraction; it won't happen again.”

Itsuki was worried about one thing, he let his emotions slip at that moment when he scolded Ichigo. Although he was annoyed, he should've done something more than just scold him, but currently he couldn't do anything. Ichigo was still weak.

***********************************

Didn't make any changes.

I do understand that many would be disappointed but my decision stands, partly due to option 3 winning and partly due to me being a lazy author that just can't be bothered to rewrite any chapter.

Anyway, nearly a month has flown by. Was in the mood of writing something modern so I created another project. not sure i'll ever post it, we'll see.

And, lastly, i'm back.

I've seen that the ahem dao has spread to other fanfics and Ulcifr, love your profile pic.

Let me know if there is any inconsistency, this chapter was written over the period of one month and I haven't exactly properly read through it. It was just me going off and on when writing this.
