Second Chance

"I'm sorry.... but i am here... i am fine if anything i have learned from it" Hanae replied.


Yoruichi waved.


"STOP TALKING LIKE THAT AND JUST TELL ME!" Byakuya demanded stomping his feet.

"Why your soon to be wife" Sojun chuckled.

Byakuya stopped upon hearing about his soon to be wife and smiled.


Shunsui nodded, "Then lets invite him"

'go to your room... Kyo is there' the king sighed 'as soon as i am finished i will come talk to you'


Renya moved off without another word


Ginrei smirked 'and she handled it beautifully'


Ukitake nodded sending off an invite

Urahara took the message, then paced a bit thinking if he should go... but then he just moved figuring it best to be around people

Hanae sighed and moved off to her room, no doubt she would be told to get rid of these horrid shinigami robes. She would fight to keep them at least.


Sojun nodded smiling.

Byakuya moved to the door to go find her.

"He has fallen for her" Sojun sighed.


Shunsui sat down pouring out sake.

Kyo was fiddling with his sword slightly waiting


Renya was at the front door just about to knock



Urahara moved in 'hey' he seemed off though

Ukitake sighed 'you okay?'

'eh... oh yeah' Urahara didnt even look sure of what he was agreeing too

Hanae moved inside of her room.


Byakuya opened the door and smiled seeing her, "YOU CAME!"


Shunsui smiled, "Sake?"

Kyo stood up 'ahhh hime'



Renya moved in 'my my... all the shouting' she half smiled


Urahara nodded slowly

Ukitake also nodded

Hanae smiled, "Kyo... its good to see you"



Byakuya smiled taking her hand and leading her inside.



Shunsui poured them all a glass of sake.

Kyo smiled 'i didnt believe it when you left'



Renya followed him in .



Ukitake sighed taking a drink

Urahara was silent as he drank

"I'm sorry" Hanae smiled sitting down on her bed.


Byakuya led her to the gardens and pulled her out rather quickly.



"So..." Shunsui spoke trying to break the silence.

Kyo laughed 'well enjoy it?' he asked


Renya chuckled 'Byakuya? what?'



Urahara just sighed heavily

Ukitake sat back 'its just the shock'

"It was wonderful Kyo.... the people were so nice i worked with great people too" Hanae smiled. "My first captain was such a nice man he loved children!... then i transferred to another squad and helped out with important experiments.... i got promoted to a Lieutenant Kyo!..." she looked so happy about talking about it to someone.


Byakuya led her to his favourite tree, "I never did this... i was told people do this and its nice for a lady to have it done the proper way" he stated as he got down on one knee.


"It was indeed" Shunsui sighed. "A princess... how could we not know?"

Kyo laughed 'really now? i was a vice captain once'.


Renya suppressed her chuckles after all he was just a child 'oh Byakuya'


Urahara touched his head 'how could we not... she was practically perfection'

Ukitake mouthed to Shunsui 'oh no'

"Really?" Hanae smiled, "Which division... which squad?" she asked.


"Will you be my wife" Byakuya stated holding out a ring.



Shunsui grimaced he understood now. "I did think it was odd... when we saw her in that fancy kimono in Rukon...."

Kyo sat back '9th' he had never been asked before


Renya had already said yes so she nodded her head 'how wonderful' she tried to disguise the sadness from her voice



Urahara sighed 'no no no dont you see its nothing to do with her clothes... she... just her'
Ukitake sighed this was not going to be easy

"Ohh Kensei runs it now!" Hanae smiled. "Oh it was wonderful Kyo.. i am glad i got to see it once" she sighed.



Byakuya smiled putting the ring on her finger, "Lets do something to celebrate!"


Shunsui sighed, "She was quite intelligent it would explain a lot of things we did not understand about her"

Kyo laughed 'it grows old... hense why i am here now'


Renya nodded 'and what would be your wish'


'her face.. her features her hair... her mind... all of it... greatness.. i should have seen it' Urahara sighed

Ukitake closed his eyes this was sounding more like a crush than anything else

Hanae smiled, "There was this one man there.... he was completely mad... had all these ideas he was wonderful"



"Dinner tonight... meet me here i will take you somewhere, dress nicely" Byakuya stated as he ran off to his room leaving her there.



Shunsui sighed softly, "Sometimes with women it is just not meant to be" he of course was referring to him and Renya.

'ohhh?' Kyo asked interested



Renya sighed she would be seen with a mere boy



Urahara sighed loudly 'youve never had trouble with women'

Ukitake closed his eyes

"He was my captain very briefly but he was great.... i showed him a few things" Hanae smiled. "Like i told you completely mad... Kisuke Urahara"


Yoruichi was back at home thinking over everything that had happened.



"Ohh i am having a trouble with a woman" Shunsui chuckled. "But now she is engaged"

Kyo wracked his brain 'ahhhhh he was in the 2nd squad when i left'


Renya moved back home, Byakuya had told her to dress nicely



Urahara sighed 'mine is a princess'

Ukitake shook his head 'oh boys'

He is captain of the 12th now!" Hanae smiled happily.


Yoruichi saw Renya, "Ohh home so soon?"


Shunsui smiled, "Well i best get going... if you will excuse me"

Kyo chuckled 'he did good for himself then'


Renya moved slightly 'i ... i need to get changed'



Ukitake sighed this was bad

Urahara downed his drink he would simply go home

Hanae nodded smiling, she looked around her room nothing had changed.



"Byaukya-Boo calling?" Yoruichi chuckled.

Kyo bowed his head 'i guess i should go... guard your door'


Renya closed her eyes 'he might be'


Urahara moved to go home

"Yeah" Hanae replied looking out of the window.


Yoruichi smiled, "Oh a ring?... so you are going to marry him"
