~~~~One Day Later/Emiko's P.O.V.~~~~

It's currently the night timed, and I was having tea at Kisuke's candy shop. It has been half an hour after my training with him. Sitting around was Kisuke and Yoruichi, in cat form. Everyone else was doing their own thing while Renji was out.

He had come to this world because he's taking over this town for Rukia while she's recovering.

Right now, he's with Ichigo and the gang, trying to figure the mysterious new foes that appeared before them. But really, it's just the three new mod souls Kisuke created. He's secretly training my brother and the others.

I have yet to meet them though.

"..."

I stare at the tea sitting in front of me.

"Is it not to your liking, Ms. Kurosaki?"

Huh?

Looking up, I find Kisuke staring at me from across the table.

"Not it's fine. It's just, I ran into something strange the other night."

"Oh?"

Pulling my phone out, I show him the picture. I explain the events leading up to that moment. Kisuke listens very carefully as I do.

"I see... So you found a victim as well."

"There's been more? Wait, you already knew about this?"

Kisuke nods.

"In truth, I found about four other incidents similar to the one you found." Yoruichi speaks up. "It's hard to say from what I gathered, but I think we know what the reason for this is."

"It's someone doing this, right? It isn't Aizen, is it?"

"No." Kisuke answers. "The Hogyoku needs time to be prepared before he could use it. This is someone else's doing."

"...I see."

"Emiko."

I look back at Yoruichi.

"I would like you to accompany me on my investigation."

"Okay."

"Splendid, we'll start tomorrow. First things first, I need you to go to the Soul Society and deliver two messages to two different people." 

"Understood. Mr. Urahara will you be-"

"You should be able to open the Senkaimon yourself." he fans himself. "You're originally from there, after all."

"...I don't know how, though."

"I'll teach you. You just need your zanpakuto."

"..."

I look at my sword that was sheathed and attached to my left hip.

~~~~Time Skip~~~~

Passing through the gate, I make my way back into the Soul Society. Standing, I take in the air.

I never thought I'd be back so soon.

"Now's not the time to think about that. You have a job to do, Emiko."

Making my way through the Seireitei, I head for my first destination.

~~~~Time Skip~~~~

Arriving to the barracks, belonging to squad thirteen, I make my way inside. Once in a random hall way, I come upon two soul reapers having an argument. It was a blond woman and a black-haired man.
