It was a rather warm day. The sun was high in the sky, there was an almost constant breeze blowing. The clouds weren't covering the sun very much, they had only hidden the sun from view once and only for a moment. The news had called for rain, but the only clouds in the sky were white and fluffy, definitely not rain clouds. There were quite a few people walking here and there, children running up and down the sidewalks to and from there families, students leaving school heading home or hanging out with their friends. It was a quite busy day.
Yoruichi was strolling down the street, taking note of the many humans that had spiritual potential, those humans that, when the were one day sent to the Soul Society would make decent, if not spectacular, shinigami. The black cat hopped up and onto a thick, brick fence and continued walking. She had been heading back to her good friend Kisuke's place, but somewhere along the way she had decided to take the longest route possible, in no real hurry to get anywhere.
If she turned the next corner and walked about half way down the block, she would be back home, if a wonderer ever truly has a home. She stopped near the corner and sat on the ledge, watching as people passed, most not even noticing her presence. |

Anza walked down the street and let out a sigh. She was not used to this gigai that Urahara had given her. She had come to the world of the living for a particular reason; she had wanted to talk to someone important. She had been searching for a good hour for this person but was in no rush to find them. She had gone shopping and spent some time flirting shamelessly with Renji. As she rounded another corner she spied a small black cat. A small grin grew on her lips as she stopped in front of the cat. She bowed politely and glanced at it. "It's nice to see you again Yoruichi" she spoke as she stood up again.
It had been quite a long time since she had seen this person. She hadn't seen Yoruichi since that day she and Captain Ukitake had explained to her about her powers. She had been so amazed by the woman that she had trained hard just to impress her. She trained and became very good at flash step.
"So how are you? It's been a long time" Anza greeted

It had been quite some time since anyone had recognized her in her cat form. So far, Kisuke had been the only one who could tell, or at least he was the only one when she was controlling her spiritual pressure. Today though, she had felt no need to hide her signature, and therefore was recognized. The girl had a strong spiritual pressure, and whether she was hiding it or not, Yoruichi could tell the contours of her powers.
"It's been quite a long time Anza, I'm well." she said, the masculine voice coming from the black cat perched atop the wall. Indeed, it had been a good decade, maybe longer, since she had seen Anza. Yoruichi was, of course, careful not to be heard by passerby as she spoke. "You look uncomfortable, not used to a gigai I imagine. How are you otherwise?"
Yoruichi focused her golden yellow eyes on one human as he passed. Moewing as the boy looked at her and rubbing her forehead with her front, right paw. She had gotten used to playing kitty cat over the years, and therefore didn't mind the acting she had to do. |

"You're right by that. I can't imagine how anyone can stand being in this for such a long time" Anza complained as she scratched her head. She sat down next to Yoruichi and sighed. A breeze went by as she too saw the boy walk past. He gave her a flirty look as she closed her eyes.
"Humans here are just like the boys in the Seiretei. They are always throwing me looks" she joked as she glanced up at the sky. Clouds were slowly moving by and it was a beautiful day. "I am happy. Takashi is doing much better with his recovery. He is now able to stand and even walk for a little bit. But I always seem to worry about him. Even though I am the younger sibling" Anza laughed as she gently reached over and stroked the soft black fur of Yoruichi's cat form

She stayed quiet until the boy turned the corner, then turned her own attention back to her visitor."It just takes time to get used to a gigai, you'll settle into it if you stay here for much longer. And as time passes, it gets harder and harder to leave your gigai." Yoruichi said, purring softly.
"Yes, most men are all the same." she said. She had never sat down and talked with Takashi, but she had seen him on multiple occasions and had chatted with him a few times. She was glad to see Anza happy, she didn't much like to see anyone unhappy. And it was always good when an injured shinigami was recovering and doing well. "It's good that he's able to walk again, even if only for a little while. It's natural to worry about the people you care for. So why is it that you're here anyways, shouldn't you be taking care of your brother, helping him to lengthen his walking time?" |

Anza smiled at her words and stared at the sky. "He told me to take the day off. I think he's feeling kinda useless with me having to constsntly help him" Anza explained as her face fell a bit. "It's my fault he ended up hurt in the first place. If I had been stronger back then then he wouldn't have gotten hurt."
"Also, Captain Zaraki wanted me to do and do something so I decided to come to the world of the living. Also Lieutenant Yachiru wanted me to pick her up some candy" Anza laughed.
"I just feel like its my fault Takashi got hurt."

"As long as you blame yourself for what happened, he's not going to recover. You need to stop acting so childish. He's going to continue getting better as long as you move on with your life and stop looking back on it. If you stay stuck in the past he's going to blame himself for not protecting you better, and that's going to keep him from recovering properly." Yoruichi said.
She turned her face to the sky, watching the clouds form different objects as their shapes changed. "Kisuke sales candy. You can get some of that for Yachiru, just stay away from any candy not on the front shelf." she said, a softer note to her voice. |

Anza looked at her in surprise. Then she relaxed and a smile grew on her face. "Yes Mam" she spoke as a breeze blew by. She closed her eyes as the breeze went through her.
"but one good thing did come from that night. I met Tsubasa, my zanpaktou spirit. He promised me that I would never be alone tin this world or allow another hollow to hurt one of my friends ever again." I told her
"But the downside is that he is battle hungry. He loves to fight yet I'm not always willing. He's a perfect spirit for the 11th division though I'm surprised I've been a fourth seat for as long as I have. I'm not like everyone else in the division; I don't always enjoy fighting"

Yoruichi meowed quietly. "There are always good and bad things that come from battles. And sometimes on will outweigh the other. A battle hungry spirit is naturally something that is placed into the 11th Division, because typically the Shinigami in control is also battle hungry. You'll become just like your weapons spirit if you allow it to control you."
Yoruichi wasn't much the serious type, but she could be when the time called for it, like now. Her tail swayed from side to side behind her as she looked contentedly up at the clouds. They were finally covering the sun. |

Yoruichi turned her attention to the energetic boy. It had been quite a long time since she had seen him. Quite a few years. She dodged the boys tackle, not much wanting to be smothered in happy hugs while so small in comparison. "Drevin, you of all people should know that you have no hope of catching me." she said playfully. "How have you been? Well I hope. It's good to see you." |

Anza's eyes widened when she had seen Drevin. To tell the truth she had a little crush on the captain. She realized that she was staring at him and looked away. She had hoped that neither he nor Yoruichi had seen how her face lit up whenever he was around

"Uhh...h..hi Dr...Drevin" she stuttered like an idiot. She smiled at him and then face-palmed. Great, now he must think you're a stuttering idiot. Why can't you have a normal conversation with him? Anza glanced down and sighed. Ever since their training fight she had developed a little crush on him. Now she didn't know how to react around him

"It's great to see you Drevin" Yoruichi said, jumping onto his shoulder. She looked at Anza, who had stuttered her hello, and meowed. "Just relax Anza, we're all adults here, ne?" she said, in an attempt at calming her former student. |
