Reborn: Bleach Edition

Hajime and Shuhei quickly met up with Shunsui, relaying the information before departing.

Hajime shunpo'd back to the Seireitei with Shuhei behind him. Hajime has already released the seal he activated and helped Shuhei to release his seal. He landed in the middle of the walkway leading straight to the execution site and flared his reiatsu, sensing a whole group stop then divert their direction. Minutes later, the group of Squad 12 and the Ryoka stop in front of Hajime and Shuhei.

"Captain Saito and Lieutenant Hisagi," a voice stuttered out behind the group.

"Stop your whining. Can't you see we outnumber them 9 to 2?" The fifth seat said.

"So," Zaraki grinned malicious, thinking of the wonderful fight that could occur between them, "Captain Saito. What are you doing here? Being so bold to flare your reiatsu."

Hajime glanced at the group as a flash of recognition passed through the eyes of the Ryoka. "To give a warning," Hajime replied, approaching the group.

The group tensed as Hajime got closer to the group, his lieutenant standing idle in the back. Hajime turned to Zaraki, "Kurosaki is still training to master his bankai, so he isn't here yet." The Ryoka perked up at the mention of their friend's name while Zaraki deflated.

"Damn, and I thought I could fight him now," Zaraki complained before grinning, "Hey, Saito wan—"

"Not now, Zaraki," Hajime quickly shot down the request without a hint of emotion. "Kumamura is west of here if you are iching for a fight," Zaraki grinned wolfishly before dropping the two girls off his back and running in the direction Hajime instructed.

"You guys go on ahead," Zaraki ordered, "I wanna fight." He disappeared.

Kusajishi glances up at the familiar shinigami and lit up. She bounded over to Hajime, ignoring the callings of the group. Jumping on Hajime's back and settling on him like she does with Zaraki, she smiled. "Haji, you made Kenpachi so happy," she giggled.

Hajime glanced at his shoulder fondly, "Hello, Kusajishi." He greeted the Lieutenant before looking over the group.

The Ryoka squirmed apprehensively under the watchful gaze of a Captain. Hajime observed the group before his eyes stopped on the female Ryoka's head. He noticed the familiar reiatsu the hairpin released. Stepping closer to the group, the Ryoka Hajime defeated tensed before stepping in front of the girl.

"Don't come any closer." Glasses warned, shielding the female behind him.

Chad noticed this and pulled Glasses back. "It's okay, Uryu. He's not bad," he tried to reassure.

Hajime continued to approach the female, the shinigamis and Ryoka watching as Hajime raised a hand to the female's hair.

She flinched and closed her eyes, preparing for something bad to happen. She opened her eyes when she felt nothing, only noticing that the Captain was observing her hairpins, specifically the chipped ones.

"Hm," Hajime hummed, recalling the last time he saw the female Ryoka use her powers. "Use it," Hajime ordered, surprising the group, "Use your power and call out this one," Hajime points to the chipped part of the hairpin.

She stuttered before nodding, "Soten Kisshun, I reject." Three lights shot out. One materializing as an injured being with the two others form an orange barrier over the injured.

Hajime observed the powers, noting the similarities and the ineffectiveness. "And it's not working?" he asked the girl.

She shook her head, her face growing sad as she watched her friend suffer.

Hajime hummed before beginning to talk, addressing the Ryoka, "Tell Kisuke to find Hachigen Ushoda," he said, the female brightening at the fact that her friend could possibly be helped. "He's the best chance you have at healing him," Hajime pointed to the injured being.

The other Ryoka's wondered how a Captain could know Urahara.

Hajime turned his back on the group, "Now go," he said, confusing them. "I didn't see anything," Hajime hinted. Yachiru jumped off Hajime's back before rushing the group down the walkway and past Hajime.

Hajime arrived at the execution with Shuhei. Taking his place quietly beside Shunsui, Hajime glances at his friend. Shunsui smiles at Hajime and Hajime nodded, knowing that their plan is almost complete.

So far only a few shinigamis were present. There was Squad 1, Squad 2, and Squad 8's Captains and Lieutenants, including himself. Lieutenant of Squad 4 was here, but Retsu wasn't, and Squad 6's Captain also showed up. Squad 5 completely fell apart with the loss of their Captain and Lieutenant. Squad 11 is out battling Squad 7, and Squad 13 is busy unsealing the Shihoin shield. Hajime don't even want to remember what Squad 10 and Squad 3 are doing. Squad 12 is also still recovering, given their casualties.

"Kuchiki Rukia, it is time. Any last words before you're execution?" Head Captain asked.

"Yes. Just one." Kuchiki san answered calmly.
