Chapter 10

Reaching the gates of Seireitei, I met a giant who after seeing my uniform let me pass. The people who guard the gate asked me for a pass which I provided and was let to proceed.

The inside was simply breathtaking. Almost everything was white and shiny. It was the closest thing to heaven I had seen so far.

Walking through a pathway, I saw a soul reaper and I was quick to stop him and ask about the direction of the 2nd division barracks. After getting the directions I didn't use shunpo but instead walked there because of the breathtaking views.

After about 20 minutes, I arrived at the barracks which were perfectly well kept. The lawn was leveled and a consistent shade of green throughout.

Walking through the door I saw many people walking around apparently busy with their work. Some where in courtyards training and some meditating on the grass.

I asked on of the 'busy' shinigami where the Captain's office was and walked there.

I knocked on Yoruichi's door and waited for and answer.

"Enter!" Was Yoruichi's voice from inside. I opened the door and walked inside. It was a white office without anything fancy but everything was well kept. Looking around I didn't see Yoruichi anywhere. Suddenly sensing danger I shunpo'ed back a few meters.

"You are already a expert in Hoho, not bad Sakura" said Yoruichi playfully as she appeared where I was standing before.

"Thank you for the compliment, Captain" I replied formally.

She pouted at this an suddenly appeared behind me and hugged me before I could react.

"Don't be so formal Sakura-chan, call be Yoruichi" she whispered into my ear. Seeing this I reversed the hug.

"Okay Yoruichi-san" I back whispered into her ear. I had grown used to being teased over these 5 years of staying with Rangiku and had learned to tease people back.

Yoruichi took a step back with her cheeks a turned to a light shade of pink.

"*cough* since I've tested your Hoho let's check your Hakuda." She said changing the subject.

She walked out of the office while signaling for me to follow her. We went to one of the courtyards and she called a guy over. He was tall and his shihakusho was a vest one like Shūhei Hisagi's and had long black hair like Byakuya and had a sheathed katana on his waist.

"This is Kaiso Kuchiki, and he joined the 2nd last year how about a duel of Hakuda with him" she said.

The guy's expression then changed to disgust as he looked at me.

"Captain, you can't expect a noble like me to duel a commoner like her, can you?" He asked her pointing at me as if I were dirt.

I immediately put this guy in my death note. I was going to beat the shit out of him in this duel. I then looked at his reiatsu which turned out to be middle Moderate.

"It's just a test Kaiso" Yoruichi replied slightly irritated by this guy's superiority complex.

After a few minutes of persuasion he finally agreed.

Standing a few meters apart from Kaiso, I started stretching my arms to kick some ass. He looked as if he might die from bored, stil thinking I'm weak. Well, good for me then, I thought as I waited for Yoruichi to start the duel.
