Punishment

24th July.

Kuchiki clan.

3rd Elders Courtyard.

Standing ok the opposite side of the 3rd elder and the acting clan head of the Tsunayashiro clan Takashi has an indifferent smile on his face.

"What's so funny kid? " Tsunayashiro Clan's head asked with a cold face.

"Your resistance even after knowing it's pointless. " says Takashi simply while looking at them as if they are already dead.

"Don't think you still have the same advantage as a century ago and we have not improved nor did we prepare. " says the Kuchiki clan 3rd elder with anger.

"Everything is futile against absolute power. " says Takeshi with an indifferent tone before releasing his Concentrated Spiritual Energy on the both of them making them kneeling on the spot.

Feeling a huge pressure the two old men can see clear horror on each other's eyes before giving a nod to shout out in unison "Bankai" 2x

"Too late. " before they can activate their Bankai Takashi has already arrived behind them to put his Zanpakuto back in its cover while walking away from the courtyard.

"When di… " with no life in their body while still in the kneeling position the two old men tried to ask but without the chance, the head on their body fell on the floor lifelessly.

--------------------------------

"Hope the result will not affect the Soul Society. " says Byakuya standing on a roof not much far away from the courtyard of the 3rd elder.

"Believe me the dangers of Soul Society can only be averted if we are united. " says Takashi with a serious face looking at the evening Sun.

"You return beside Rukia first and I will take care of everything here. " says Byakuya without argument.

"Good. " 

-----------------------------

By the time Takashi returned to the 6th Division prison Yamada has already completed the cleaning process of the prison and not having a conversation with Rukia.

"If you are done cleaning it's time to leave," says Takashi from outside of the prison doors.

"Take care Miss Rukia. " says Yamada before running away.

"You have returned rather quickly. " says Rukia with a smile on her face.

"It was nothing important. " says Takashi with a smile as he sat beside her.

"Glad you are with me, I get bord staying here all the time alone. " says Rukia with a smile before hugging him.

"Do you want me to take you out of this place? " asks Takashi earning a surprising look from Rukia so he decided to explain with a helpless smile "You know I am a person who likes a quiet place but when it's forced on me it becomes unbearable for me. "

"Is that alright? " asks Rukia with worry as she looks at him helplessly.

"I want to see who can stop me, worse comes we will escape to Asgard and no one will dare to touch you once I declare you as a part of our faction. " said Takashi with a serious face and without any hesitation in his tone just to indicate the seriousness of his words.

"Even if we escape the Soul Society but when I get out of this place it will be bad for you and big brother, specifically when he entrusted you to guard this place besides he will also be accused of helping me escaping this prison when he must keep me locked. " says Rukia with a complex expression, on one hand, she is excited to escape from this place far away from where no one can separate her from Takashi, on the other hand, her duty as a sister and aunt stops her from doing so.

The moment she is gone the Kuchiki clan will be accused of betrayal and she is more than certain once that happens the clan is going to remove Byakuya from his position and punish him with his family.

The kindness he showers her is she going to repay this way?

What will happen to Sumu who is innocent and still loves her so much?

"Then once it's all over I am taking you out of here since they don't want you, why not join me? " said Takashi with a smile

"Sure if I can get out of this alive without breaking any rules then I will also take it as my debt being cleared up. " said Rukia without hesitation.

26th July.

In the blink of an eye, 2 days went by in this time Takashi accompanied Rukia as well as went hunting the members of the Nobel houses that can become a barrier to the perfect Soul Society and his plans, he also didn't forget to spend his time with Rangiku and Unohana who were cleaning the members from their Division without mercy since they didn't want them to effect on the growth of the new members, the youth crashes are not necessary for the Gotei 13 anymore with time you need to change yourself or you will be left in the dust.

"What happened? " while hugging each other and having a happy conversation Rukia asks in confusion when she discovered the sudden change on Takashi's face.

"It's the red hair Lieutenant of the 6th Division who is coming here with the Onmitsukidō guards, maybe the central 46 has decided your punishment. " says Takashi with an unhappy tone as he got up from the floor before leaving her hug.

"Renji is going to announce the punishment to me? "with a complex emotion exclaims Rukia as she followed behind him.

Not soon after her surprise, she discovered Renji walking towards her prison through the stairs, and behind him, there are 4 members of the Onmitsukidō who has their heads covered with dark covers to hide their identities.

"Renji? " whispers Rukia with worry as she looks at her childhood friend wondering what news he brings to her.

"Rukia Kuchiki the Lieutenant of 13th Division and the members of the Kuchiki clan for your crime of breaking the Law of the Soul Society and Sharing your Shinigami Powers with a mortal the Central 46 has announced your Punishment of Death by the Sōkyoku after 14 days.

Today you will be moved to Senzaikyū from where you will watch the Sōkyoku Hill where you will receive your punishment. " announced Renji with an emotionless tone but seldom tremble in his mouth and the eye that has helplessness gave away his pain.

"Death by the Sōkyoku? "
