"Restless":Unable to stay in one place Makino had left her dorm room, not to mention the thick atmosphere in the room between her and her roommate, Sayoko. The two, even when not speaking had a vendetta against one another since she first arrived and even though Makino could not figure it out why, she was in no mood to start now nor did she really want to. So she gathered her things and left to go train somewhere she could relax and think.
As she trained with her sword, thoughts of the days past flooded her mind. The thugs. What she and Allura went over in her training. What happen with Ryusuke and Riku in class and what happened to her and Sojiro because of it. One of the shortest relationships she had ever had. Even shorter then the ones her oldest brother ever had, and that was saying a lot with Kin's ways.
What bugged her the most was the feeling that in some way it was her fault. If she had only stopped Riku's flirtatious ways with Sojiro long ago she would not be in this mess, but she didn't and now... Now all she could do was think about the man she lost, and place blame on herself for this mess.
But no matter who was to blame, her, Sojiro, Ryusuke or Riku the fact of the matter is she was growing weak in her time of being away from the clan and her zanpakuto and down playing her true strength and abilities. A fact that needed to be fixed as of years ago. There would be no more slaking, no more placing blame and no more pity parties. At least on her part. It was time to return to who she use to be. A Masanobu Assassin.
Even though she was still young, she was strong, stronger than most her age and it was time she showed not only her instructors this, but the Captains of the Gotei and even herself. Things were not going to get better on there own. For her or anyone else if she was not prepared for what's to come in the future. The thugs. Which she knew would show again, and Aizen. Which they all knew was not done toying with them. As her anger grew within her she spun with her blade in hand, bringing it across the training dummy before her, slicing it in half, she leapt lunging at another, slicing it down the center. Another spin as two more fell to the ground. She continued until nothing was standing in front of her.

“A little brutal there don’t you think, Chisai tori?”
His voice echoed softly down into the Zanjutsu training field as the gorgeous brunette spun and looked toward him, but missed his location by about hundred feet. “Up here.”
As she looked up to the roof of the building beside the field, Mitsuo gave her a slight wave of hand. Grunting he pushed off the roof to a stand dusting himself. “Even if they are dummies. You could have been a little nicer.” He jumped down to the training field landing a few yards from her, his hands sliding into his pockets.
She still had not spoken to him, only turned and went back to her training. “So, I guess you couldn’t stay cooped up either?” When she still did not speak to him a hand came from his pocket, lifting to his head. He sighed, combing his fingers through his hair.
“Come on, Chisai tori. Why do you do this to me? Just talk to me.” Mitsuo countered as he kept walking toward her.

"I ask you not to call me that. Not here. Not anywhere." She growled in response to him as she set up new targets.
"Yeah, and I never understood that. It fits you so well."
Makino turned quickly extending her sword. The tip a breath away from the end of Mitsuo's chin. Her eyes were narrowed as she looked at him. "Because I told you not to. That's all you need to know."

"Damn girl!" Mitsuo lifted his hands to shoulder height. "What's with the up-tight bitch mode all of a sudden? Sayoko rubbing off on you a little too much?"
Makino sighed and let her blade drop to her side as she cast her eyes and head down her shoulders slumping. "It's everything Mitsuo-kun." Her tone defeated and exhausted.
"Hey hey now, none of that." He stepped up to her sliding his fingers under her chin. He lifted her head slowly until their eyes met. "I have known you for two years. This is not the Maki-chan I fell in love with. What's wrong?"
Makino giggled sofly taking his hand from under her chin. "You don't love. You lust."
A quick sharp gasp escaped Mitsuo as he covered his heart with his hand acting wounded by her words. "You crush me, Chisai tori. To think I could never love. You know all it takes is the right woman and a man is putty in her hands."

"I did not say you would never love. You would just never love me. It's all lust." Makino corrected him.
Mitsuo's eyes widened as he looked on at her, his free hand sliding back into his pocket his tone pained. "Is that what you think, Makino? That I could never love you just because of the way I act around you?"
Makino was looking around at the mess she had made as Mitsuo's tone made her look toward him again. His wounded act no longer an act he was genuinely hurt by what she said. "Mitsuo, don't do this. This week has just been bad for me."

"Oh, and because its been bad for you, you think you can insult me and my feelings?"
"Nooo," Makino exclaimed. "Mitsuo, please I just..." she shook her head. "I..." she fell silent with a heavy sigh, her head lowering again. "I just don't know anymore."
Mitsuo stepped toward her again this time closer as he lifted her head from under her chin once more. "Are you and Sojiro together anymore?"
Her head shook lightly as he tipped her head back further. "Are you sure of this?"

She looked into his eyes as he stood in front of her. "It has been five days since he has spoke to me. Today he was less than a hundred yards from me. He said nothing to me. Only told the Lieutenant of the Second division of what happen to him and Aizen's message. It seems I am in danger because his captor thinks we are a couple."
"But you're not." Mitsuo retorted. "And in my eyes you never were. He was too wrapped up in his little boyfriend to pay attention to you. That's not the way a man treats his woman. Sojiro is a dumbass putting his attention into that whiny ass, Asuhara."
Makino leaned back at Mitsuo's sharp words about Sojiro. "That is your best friend your talking about there, Mitsuo-kun."

"He is my friend not my best friend. That's Asuhara's department. The closest thing I have to a best friend is Ryusuke, and I am still not sure about that one." He snaked his arm around Makino, pulling her against him.
"Does he hold your hand when you walk together? Has he kissed you other then the cheek, have you even made out, made love?" Mitsuo ask her in a series of quick questions, but before she could do anything but nod or shake her head, he leaned in and pressed his lips to hers in a deep heated kiss.

Makino froze she did not know what to do. Should she push him away then punch him for his blatant act or should she stand there and enjoy being kissed. As far as she knew she and Sojiro were over. He wanted nothing more to do with her. So much that he would not even speak to her.
The reason why was beyond her, she did not know what she did so badly that he would not even speak to her. As her heart sank into her stomach her eyes started to close slowly, but not before she caught something from the corner of them. It was a streak of sliver light, but before she could write it off and return Mitsuo's kiss he was jerked away from her with a great and quick force.
Coming quickly back to her senses her eyes focused on Mitsuo and now Sojiro standing a few feet in front of her. She blinked, reaching out to them about to say something when all of a sudden, Sojiro punched Mitsuo square in the mouth.

Sojiro punched him twice before throwing him away from Makino. He grabbed his aching shoulder, his head still burning from what he had heard just now as it overlapped with the last few hours. Aizen’s threats clamored in his head along with his mother’s screams - her indignation and fury - along with Terou’s laughter from the past. When he had nearly died at that bastard’s hands. He who had killed Take-jii. Who could kill again.
Because the key was gone....
Damn! He wasn’t ready for this. AND his friend was kissing Makino! HIS girlfriend!
“What the HELL are YOU DOING?” Sojiro snarled.

Mitsuo stumbled back, quickly getting his barrings straight from Makino’s kiss and then being punched in the face by Sojiro. Twice. “What the fuck is your issue, asshole!”
He was tempted to strike back, but held off when he caught Makino out of the corner of his eyes. “She don’t belong to you anymore!” He turned toward Makino stepping toward her as Mitsuo shooed Sojiro away.
“Go back to your boy toy where you want to be. Chisai tori is a ladies man, not a queer boys toy." He chuckled lightly, "I am sure the ever famous Gin Ichimaru is one proud father knowing his son is fagot.”
He took Makino's hand in his only to have his hand and body ripped away from her again.

“It was NOTHING Like that, you fucking manwhore!” Sojiro spat, eyes aflame. He swung at Mitsuo again, but when he caught it, he kicked his leg out from under him and swung his elbow into his chest. “She’s mine!” he screamed, punching again. “And he was my FIRST friend. WHEN KENJI WALKED AWAY BECAUSE OF LAS NOCHES! AND IZURU WAS A PART OF THE GOTEI AND MY MOM WAS A GHOST OF HERSELF BECAUSE SHE’D LOST SO MUCH! When I didn’t KNOW IF GETTING THROUGH THE ACADEMY WOULD MATTER! Because everything was BROKEN!”
He paused to take a breath and Mitsuo swung on him, making him fall backwards. He cussed as he jolted his arm and red spots swirled around his head. He lifted himself up and caught Mitsuo’s arm as the other boy pinned him back down, an arm to his neck. “I’d lost one brother!” He used Sho to blast Mitsuo off of him and stood, wiping his face. “I didn’t know how long Mom would last. Dad was gone. And I had a tiny brother who should grow up smiling forever!”
He fell back but kept his footing at a kick from Mitsuo and then hooked him with his elbow to swing him back into the ground. “Then he came back, a skeleton who could only hurt my mom, and she vanished. Then, she married someone else. She smiled again. But it was NOT my dad!”
He stumbled back into the wall. “I didn’t care… even though I should. She was smiling. Mother was smiling again. But the nightmare came back.” His head lowered. “I didn’t notice her because I didn’t want anything else broken. I had my hands full…. keeping the fragments that mattered to me intact.”
Sojiro wiped at his tears. “And he’s back. And I’m nothing like my father! He’ll walk all over me.”
He looked to Makino. “Yet she still slipped in….”

“So you think she is a burden because she slipped in?!” Mitsuo bellowed as he pointed to Makino. "You're more fucked in the head then I thought."
Makino opened her mouth to speak, her head shaking slightly, but was cut off by Sojiro’s outburst.
“NO ASSHOLE!!” Sojiro swung at him again.
Mitsuo grabbing his fist hanging on tightly as he twisted Sojiro’s arm around his back and shoved him against the wall face first. “Then why did you run from her?” He pushed against him as Sojiro grunted. “More like your father than you want to admit? Is that how it is going to be? Every time something bad comes along or something you can’t handle pops up you’ re going to run off and leave her hanging like you have for the last five days?”
“I’ve heard the stories, from you and from hearsay. Tell me I am wrong, Sojiro. Tell me!” He placed his free hand to the back of Sojiro’s head and pushed it into the wall. “That’s no way to treat the woman you call yours! If she is yours than treat her like the queen she is. Not some object you can toss aside and call her back only in the times that are going good for you.”

“I never did that!” Sojiro growled, trying to break free from Mitsuo.
Mitsuo pushed his head harder against the wall. “Really?” he sneered "because that’s what it looks like AND sounds like!” Sojiro growled and Mitsuo kicked him. “Well?”
“I didn’t know how to apologize!” Sojiro hollered back. “She was hurt in that class. But I had to help Riku first so I didn’t see the same thing happen to him that had happened to others because of their emotions. And then I was KIDNAPPED AND EVERYTHING DEAR TO ME THREATENED!” He sent another burst of Sho out, giving him enough leeway to free himself.
“I went looking for you to help with that but you weren’t around so I was talking to Etsu. I was out in the open and lowered my guard in front of Aizen because I couldn’t STOP thinking about her when HE threatened HER! Hell, I haven’t even finished undressing her and he knows how smitten I am! So SHUT THE FUCK UP!”
Sojiro slammed a hand into the wall, blasting a hole through it.
“The war with Aizen might be just another thing to you, Mitsuo, but I have witnessed, seen and heard too much horror from him and his minions to dismiss it. The way to keep him back. I didn't even notice her when she was three feet from me because I was WEAK in front of him!"

As Mitsuo went to rip into Sojiro again Makino screamed out. "STOP IT!! LEAVE HIM ALONE MITSUO-KUN!!" She stepped toward the two and stopped as they both looked at her. "Just stop please. Both of you."
She looked to Mitsuo pointedly. "I need to talk to Soji-kun, Mitsuo. Could you please leave us alone so I can do that?"
Mitsuo sighed combing his finger through his hair. "Chisai tori." Mitsuo mummers noticing tears pool in her eyes. "Are you sure?"
She nodded slowly, "yes I need to talk to him. I need to get all this straight in my head before I decide on anything." Her hand lifted as she wiped at a tear that escaped and rolled down her cheek. "With what happen to me and Allura this weekend and what we came back to. I have issues of my own to work through before I decide anything."
