Morning came and Yuki has never been excited to wake up. It's not because of the Seiretei tour but because she wants to meet her escort. She woke up hours earlier than she normally would and she started preparing for the day.

She wore her clothes after she took a bath and fixed her hair. She saw the pair of socks and what seems like sandals in the corner of the room but she never wore them, in fact, she never wear any footwear because for her, they are uncomfortable so she stick to being bare footed.

The time for the tour came and Yuki is still waiting excitedly in her room until a knock was heard in her door.

"Yes!" Yuki answered

"Miss Sakura, the Head Captain wants you in his office. Your escort has arrived." The person outside said which turned out to be Sasakibe

Yuki quickly got up her bed and sprinted outside leaving a confused Sasakibe in her doorstep. When she reached the Head Captain's office, she didn't bother knocking, instead she just barged in and pounced on the first person she saw which was a red headed shinigami with a pineapple head, Renji Abarai.

"WOAH! HEY WHAT THE-"

"Are you my escort?!" Yuki asked happily cutting Renji's words

Renji's face became beet red when he saw how near Yuki is to his face and realized their position. Yuki is dangling on his shoulder while she has her arms wrapped around his neck. Her tail casually brushing on his thighs.

"Renji-kun, why is your face red?" She asked

"H-h-how did you know my name?!" Renji asked surprised.

"Your eyes told me. Now answer. You my escort?" Yuki asked again

Renji just nodded a yes because he can't utter a word for Yuki's tail is almost brushing down there which is making him uncomfortable.

"Yuki, child. Let go of Lieutenant Abarai. You're making him nervous." Head Captain said with a grin

Yuki giggled and leaped off Renji when she saw another shinigami beside him. It was a short haired girl that is a bit taller than her. She immediately deciphered her name and bowed in front of her.

"A pleasant morning, Master Rukia Kuchiki." She said in all politeness.

Rukia was confused on what she heard that she immediately asked Yuki why.

"You are of a noble clan and contracted with the Ice Queen. For that, I see no reason to deny you my servitude." Yuki answered still bowing

Rukia looked at Renji with equally enlarged eyes. They looked at the Head Captain but he just nodded. Rukia gave a loud sigh and rubbed her temples.

"Yuki, these two will escort you around Seiretei. I presume that the captains already expects your arrival so I suggest you leave immediately." Head Captain said

Yuki looked back at him and smiled. She saluted him and dragged Rukia and Renji out of the office.

When they exited the squad 1 barracks, the two escorts immediately bombarded Yuki with questions as they walk towards the squad 2 barracks.

"Say.....ummm." Renji asked

"Yuki. Yuki Sakura."she answered with a smile

"Yeah. So Yuki-chan, why are you bare footed?" He asked

"I don't like foot ware. They're uncomfortable and gets in the way." She answered with her ears twitching now and then

"What do you mean when you called me master?" Rukia asked

"My clan is devoted to serving the nobles. Since you bear the Kuchiki name and wields an ice type zanpakuto, I am devoted to serve you." Yuki answered

"Is that so. But is it true that you can guess our names with just looking at our eyes and how did you know my zanpakuto is an ice type?" Rukia asked again

"For the first question, yes I can. For the second one, Muracho told me." She answered

"Muracho is my zanpakuto which is my hairpin. She is in this form so I can carry her easily." Yuki added

"Zabimaru and Sode no Shirayuki. Nice names."she said while glancing at Rukia and Renji's swords

Renji laughed and Rukia just giggled at Yuki's reaction now. Her eyes can't stop sparkling especially when she saw a dango shop nearby. Renji had to carry Yuki on his shoulders just so she won't pounce on the man eating dango.

After moments of struggling and wailing, the group arrived at squad 2 with a few casualties (Renji with a bunch of scratch marks).

"So this is what it looks like inside. Muracho only showed me the exterior and how to get here." Yuki mumbled to herself

"I didn't expect you to be here so early." A voice said behind them which made them turn

"Captain Soi Feng, Omaeda" Rukia and Renji said in unison

Yuki saw a lady who is just a few inches taller than her with neck length hair but has extended hair at the back. She has a golden sash on her waist. Behind her is a huge man munching on some chips and looks bored out of his mind. Yuki flashed them a toothy grin and greeted them.

"Good morning Captain Soi Feng. Lieutenant Marechiyo Omaeda! You have very pretty eyes!!!" Yuki blurted out all of a sudden.

"Oi oi! How did you know my name!" Omaeda reacted surprised

"Leave it, Omaeda. Even if she explained your puny brain won't understand anything." Soi Feng said and approached Yuki

"Captain, that's a bit harsh to say." Omaeda said while scratching his head

Soi Feng just scoffed and looked at Yuki's ears. Yuki noticed it and twitched it.

"You can touch them if you want." Yuki said and wagged her tail

Soi Feng, with a blush on her face, seems hesitant at first but them placed her hand at Yuki's head and scratched her head. Yuki began purring and giggling.

"Haha, that tickles, nya." She said in her cat voice

Soi Feng began to smile and Yuki just leaped on her shoulder, rubbing her face in her cheeks which earned gasps from everyone around.

"Hey, Yuki. What are you doing?!" Renji asked surprised

"What? Is there something wrong?" Yuki asked as she wrapped her tail around Soi Feng's arm

"That's a captain. Get down from her shoulders." Rukia added.

"I think it's okay. Suzumebachi told me she likes cats, right?" Yuki asked

"How did you know my zanpakuto's name?" Soi Feng asked while looking at her.

"Muracho told me. They're best friends already. A hornet and a butterfly sounds like a good combination." Yuki said with a smile

"Oh yeah, Omaeda! Gegetsuburi said stop eating salty foods. You'll get fatter!" Yuki shouted to Omaeda

A few snickers can be heard and Yuki suddenly saw a lot of men wearing black.

"Wow, are those ninjas?" Yuki asked

"No. They are the Onmitsukido, Seiretei's stealth force. They are under my command." Soi Feng said and Yuki leaped off her shoulders

"I can be stealthy, too! Watch!" Yuki said and suddenly turned into a cat.

Her cat form is a small white kitten with a patch of brown on her head reaching up to her right eye. Her eyes are still the same color, blue on the right, pink on the left. She has a mark on her nape that is shaped like a butterfly.

"Sugoi, Yuki-chan. You can turn into a cat." Rukia said while picking her up.

Yuki gave a small meow and licked Rukia's nose

"You sure are something, Yuki." Renji said then Yuki jumped onto his shoulder and stayed there

"Uh, captain are you alright?" Omaeda said that made the rest turn

Captain Soi Feng is slightly shaking and her eyes are covered by her hair.

"S-she's like....... L-lady Yoruichi........ Cats." Soi Feng said then in a blink of an eye, Yuki was gone on Renji's shoulder and in the hands of Soi Feng.

Soi Feng kept rubbing and rubbing her face on Yuki and Yuki seems to be enjoying it.

"Well, seems to be a long day." Rukia said and chased down Soi Feng who won't pet go of Yuki.
