Mighty Kings, My Two Kings (Bleach Fanfiction)

Chapter 3: Fiesty Kitten

Maxima and Rukia seemed to be stuck in a rally of apologies for ruining each other’s garments while the men stood gazing around them.

“Women are such strange creatures,” Renji said under his breath as he watched the two ladies. The two kings, Grimmjow and Byakuya, nodded in agreement without saying a word.

“Tell me about it,” Ichigo chuckled, which earned him a light pinch from Orihime. He gave her a sly smile before he felt someone breathing down his neck.

“And what’s so wrong with women, Ichigo?” a sultry voice said from behind him. He jumped and turned to find a tall chocolate skinned beauty in an orange dress standing before him. The dress was tight-fitting but extremely low cut, exposing too much skin in the chest area. Her hair was a dark plum colour, tied neatly into a ponytail. With her stood a gentleman dressed in a comical green and white striped tuxedo with a matching hat, where his blonde hair was flicking from under the brim. Next to him stood a little girl with short black hair in pigtails, bashfully holding his hand and hiding behind him.

Maxima turned to look at the people who had joined their company and was delighted to find that it was none other than her sister, Yoruichi Shihoin, with her husband, Kisuke Urahara. They were the caretakers of the Middle Kingdom.

“Kisuke, Yoruichi, glad you decided to join our little party,” Grimmjow moved forward to meet them, followed by the other men. Kisuke lifted his arm to shake hands but unfortunately, the little girl was still very much attached.

Kisuke leaned down over her and spoke to her softly. “Ururu, go stand with mama.” Immediately, the little girl obeyed hesitantly and went over to Yoruichi, taking hold of her hand.

Maxima beamed at her sister as she saw her walking over with her daughter, leaving the men to deal with whatever macho business they were concerned with. However, she stopped abruptly as she walked past Orihime, who simply bowed to her silently. Yoruichi laughed and gave her a light slap on the arm.

“Oh there’s no need for that Orihime. This is a party,” Yoruichi said with a grin and jerked her head towards the other two ladies as an invitation to join them.

When Yoruichi reached them, she immediately embraced her sister and they both had to fight the urge to squeal in delight. Instead, they made quiet, high-pitched yelps, which made them sound like a pair of mice. This was ironic due to the fact that they were feline shape-shifters.

“Ah Maxima, it’s so good to see you. I love the dress too although, I wish you would show off your assets a little more. I’m sure Grimmjow would appreciate that,” Yoruichi said coyly and Maxima flushed slightly. Orihime giggled but Rukia wrapped her arms around her chest, as she was seemingly the least voluminous in that area.

Grimmjow and his other companions were still within earshot and they also heard Yoruichi’s bold remark. The sisters both noticed as the group seemed to freeze slightly, watching as they slowly moved away. The ladies giggled to each other but the little girl, Ururu, was tugging at her mother’s arm.

Yoruichi looked down at her daughter with a sigh. “Alright Ururu, you can go sit at the table with the other children, but first give Aunt Maxima a kiss.” The little girl’s face brightened and she swiftly pecked Maxima on the cheek before rushing off.

“I can’t believe how fast she’s grown,” Maxima said with a smile and her sister nodded in agreement.

“I know. Hopefully, you’ll have one of your own running around soon,” Yoruichi said with a wink at her sister and Maxima noticed Grimmjow’s head turn slightly towards them with a cheeky grin. However, she also noticed Byakuya’s gaze intently upon them. At first, she thought he might have been watching Rukia. Now, she wasn’t too sure.
