Playing With Other Supernaturals

Volume 2 Chapter 56 - Plans

She looked around again and saw to sets of futon mattresses properly set aside and Kisuke still in his dreams on his bed, \'I\'ve let my guard down. I couldn\'t believe I would just fell asleep like that. Is it the milk? Did he put something in it? No, I remembered that strange spell he casts on me to forcefully calm me down.\'

She looked at his happy sleeping face again and she couldn\'t help but smile too, "Thank you. I really needed that rest." She then looked at herself and saw the disheveled pajamas she was wearing that can entice any man. She hurriedly covered herself with the blanket and looked around again stopping her gaze at Kisuke, "You\'re awake, right!?" She asked him while blushing.

Kisuke didn\'t move and just continued sleeping with a contented face. Sona stared at him for a minute more and sighed in relief when she was sure that he was still sleeping. She fixed her beddings, cleaned herself and wore her school uniform again, all through the use of magic. She then looked back at Kisuke for one last time before exiting through the door to head downstairs.

After Sona went downstairs, Kisuke suddenly opened his eyes and stretched to get up. Yoruichi who is on his side all this time also did the same.

"I thought for sure that you would tease her after seeing her like that," Yoruichi commented while she is yawning.

"It feels like I\'ll be stepping on a land mine if I do that. It\'s still early in the morning, I want some peace and quiet." Kisuke smiled and patted the black cat.

Yoruichi just snorted at his words, "It would be nice if it\'s always morning."

"Hehehe." Kisuke rubbed his nose a bit embarrassed.

"What\'s the plan for today?"

Kisuke stood up and went for the dresser to change to another set of his usual attire, "Let\'s see… Let Koneko-chan help Aika feel some Ki and you help her with some stamina training. Use the restorative hot spring if it\'s necessary."

"You won\'t awaken her Sacred Gear first?" Yoruichi is a little confused as this is the whole point on why they allowed Aika to step into the supernatural world.

"I won\'t. Her Sacred Gear is a bit special you see, and I want her foundations on an appropriate level before we release it for her. That way, she can take the training that I\'m planning for later without any problems. I want to see a Shinigami with a Sacred Gear."

"I see, you want to see if the Sacred Gear will affect her Reiryoku as it is a tool embedded to the soul of the host. Will the Sacred Gear appear alongside a Zanpakuto? Or will the Zanpakuto \'eat\' the Sacred Gear and vice-versa? Good, it also piqued my interest. I\'ll help her polish her foundation so that she can take any trauma that could happen." Yoruichi is also feeling excited at the prospect of a new type of Shinigami being born with the combined mystery of this world and their former world.

"I\'ll be using Benihime when that time comes, so please take note that my Hollowfied Reiatsu will also flow into her and remove the division between a Shinigami and Hollow in her. Devise a training with that in mind."

"Can\'t we use my Zanpakuto?" Yoruichi asked.

"We can, but your Zanpakuto is technically an unknown territory for us, you can\'t even control it yet and we don\'t know what it might do. An unknown variable is more dangerous than a known dangerous variable." Kisuke furrowed his brows in a bit of contemplation but still decided to use Benihime as Yoruichi\'s Zanpakuto is too special for their own good.

"Ugh, I understand. What are you planning on doing then?" Yoruichi conceded at his words and felt a little bit… no, a lot of frustration is already accumulating because of her Zanpakuto, Byakko never listening to her.

"I want to finish separating my Mana with my Reiryoku and fusing it with Ki today."

"Finish it today? Isn\'t that dangerous? You fused your Mana with your Reiryoku in a course of a few years and now you want to do it in just a day?"

"I already have experience doing it, and fusing Ki with Reiryoku is a lot easier than with Mana. And we don\'t exactly have that much time to do it slowly when those dickheads are looming."

Yoruichi understood his point and had no choice but to agree, "Fine, but I have to be nearby when you attempt to do it."

"Thanks." Kisuke patted the black cat again before heading down to join the rest.

Both of them went down and Kisuke used the bathroom first to wash first before going to the dining area to eat his breakfast.

When they reached the living room beside the dining area, he can see that their\'s another guest this morning, and that is Tsubaki Shinra, the Vice-President of the Student Council. She is here to get the Student Council President, Sona Sitri. She was still in a state of shock when she heard that her master spent a night in someone else house and a guy\'s on top of that.

Every morning, Tsubaki picks up Sona to start their day every 7:00 AM. Tsubaki arrived at Sona\'s place as usual but it was already fifteen minutes late after their usual schedule so Tsubaki started knocking at her door, but there was no answer or whatsoever. Tsubaki knew that Sona would always wake up at 6:00 in the morning no matter how tired she was the day before and she would be out by 7:00 AM. This schedule only changes unannounced when there was an emergency that she needs to attend, but Sona would always inform her \'Queen\' of such changes so Tsubaki was confused at the turn of events.

Tsubaki couldn\'t wait anymore so she opened the door of Sona\'s room. Even though Sona and Tsubaki are best friends, they still came from an aristocratic family and there are still etiquettes that must be observed. Sona is Tsubaki\'s master and she shouldn\'t head inside her room without permission. Tsubaki intruded her room knowing fully of that, but her master\'s condition is more important for her.

Sona\'s room is a typical luxurious western room with a King size bed. The room is very tidy, as one would expect from a very strict honor student. Tsubaki inspected the whole room, but she failed to find Sona. She noticed that her bag of paperwork for the Student Council is not here. Tsubaki started to recall where she brought it yesterday and remembered that she would go to Kisuke Urahara\'s place for a chess rematch, bringing with her the bag that contains the paperwork.

\'Did she not go home last night?\' Tsubaki reached this conclusion but shook her head in denial, \'No! That\'s impossible. This is the very strict Sona Sitri, she wouldn\'t do that.\' But no matter how much she denies it, the more this thoughts burrow in her mind. \'I\'ll have to contact her first.\'

Tsubaki raised her hand in front of her and conjured a magic circle with Sitri Clan\'s insignia. She is using a communication spell that works similar to modern phones. But even after waiting for a few minutes, there was no answer. \'What\'s happening? Is she unconscious? Did that Urahara did something to her?\'
