232:
Here is day three of Kaien/Rukia
Title: Reunion
Name: Kaien, Rukia Niriko and Mihara Kadara
Suethor: lunaprincess21
Pairings: Kaien/Rukia, Byakuya/Niriko, Ichigo/Mihara, Ggio/Soifon, Renji/Tatsuki, Ogidou/Kiyone (who... oh, the eighth seat of squad four! that is just plain desperate), Ulquiorra/Orihime Hisagi/Rangiku.
Stats: 38 chapters, 77,861 words, 40 reviews, 8 favorites, 8 follows; average: 2000 words, 1 review and a fifth of a favorite and a fifth of a follow.That said, most of the reviews come from SparklyColours and I just reported one that says “You write like an autistic person on drugs”. The fanfic is bad, but seriously... nobody deserves THAT kind of review.
Rating: Toshiro... I was hoping it would be a Kenpachi and Soifon too for some strange reason.
Appearance: I'll quote the Suethor's profile for the description of the two Ocs “Nuriko Kadaran (Reunion)- A tall, pretty looking woman that has Byakuya Kuchiki wrapped around her finger and would do anything to keep Kaien and Rukia together. She has calf-length violet hair with her fringe covering both the left and right parts of her forehead and two long strands of hair in front of her ears, also she has a fang-like tooth coming out of the left side of her mouth that gives her a mischievous look (think of a grey eyed Tsuruya from Haruhi Suzumiya). Her zanpaktou's name is Miko and the two has a sisterly bond like Nuriko and Mihara, however sometimes Miko can be a bit of a mom to Nuriko. She loves Byakuya with all of her heart and respects the reality of him being a widower. “ and “Mihara Kadaran (Reunion)- An equally tall, pretty woman that is Nuriko's cousin but is more like a sister to her. Her age is a year older than her cousin however she acts a little more childish than her, she have her moments of being the older family member. Mihara's currently Ichigo Kurosaki's girlfriend, he sometimes wonder why he fell for the woman but in the end he really cares for her. Her hair is a deep chocolate brown and reaches her shoulder, her icy blue eyes compliments the beauty mark she has on the right side of her face under her eye. Mihara's a REALLY heavy drinker but knows how to control her liquor well, has a loveable heart but sometimes have a bad temper.
Background: Kaien comes back to life after the Winter War. Ganju is happy that his brother is back. Nothing much happens, and then in chapter six we find out that Hisagi has been promoted to captain despite not being able to use Bankai and he's getting a new fukutaicho. (That's Nuriko) Then there is a peace treaty. Chapter eight has Grimmjow showing up and Soifon is dating Ggio Vega. They have a pool party, and then an after party with a DJ... yeah, this one isn't going to get a good rating... and then... Gin shows up and they're going to be having a battle. (Gin's a double traitor you know... I knew that before it was revealed) This is to get Gin out of the way. He's brought 200 personal. Yamamoto is yelling his head off. I think this is a good time to stop, the entry is LONG.
Sue Qualifications: When someone from soul society dies, their soul passes back into the cycle of rebirth. And yet when Rukia finally kills the Hollow that held onto Kaien's soul he gets to come back. (Umm... I don't think so.) “ He says, "Alright. Well after you finished him off with that cool new move you had, Byakuya battling the weird pumpkin man and everyone else flying off to parts unknown, I saw a little light piercing through my eyes. I tried to squint them shut so I could stop the light from coming in but it kept getting brighter and brighter until I finally opened my eyes to see I was in a dark dome with splattered blood and frozen ice everywhere, and also the gaping hole in wall fit the décor nicely." Also, “If her Sode no Shirayuki was the most beautiful zanpaktou then Kaien's Nejibana had to be the 2nd, the shiny silver trident with it's three points and sea blue horse tail at the top made Rukia's eyes shine in amazement and the elegant but fierce way he uses it had to be a great level of swordsmanship.”
Annoying Attributes: There is this sentence in the first chapter. “Panicked as ever, Rukia TRIED to pick him up but reality had hitted her very hard as she realized that her small stature couldn't pick this tall man up.” That has got to be the most awkward sentence I have ever read. Also, they say this on their profile about the pairing. “Kaien x Rukia (i could rant abt this couple all day but long story short, Kaien didn't deserve to die like that and if he didn't die then he and Rukia would be together because to tell you the truth I wasn't felling him being married to a woman who could'nt even COMPARE to his hotness and only been on the show for 1 episode (half an episode actually) and i miss him so much)”. That said, I have a new idea for a fanfic of my own. The writer has to pair EVERYBODY up just for the sake of pairing them up.
Sample: (Chapter 1: The Faithful Night)
She turned to be face-to-face with her nightmare over again. At the back porch was a tall man with midnight hair wearing what looked liked ripped white clothing and white gloves, his zanpaktou was sheathed and placed by his waist and he had beautiful aqua eyes, she saw her former lieutenant Kaien Shiba.. or so she thought.
Rukia tried to reached for Sode No Shirayuki but remembered that she was in her bedroom, Rukia mentally cursed herself and began to chant a binding spell to capture the imposter.
"Bakudo 9: Horin!"
With those words she bounded the wounded man and was beginning to finish him off with Hado 31 when the man spoked again.
"Matte… Rukia.."
Rukia stopped her attack to hear his plea but shrugged it off, she was fooled by the 9th espada once but not again. Although the man looked very wounded she felt a glimmer of hope that this man was actually Kaien, she ran to the man and held his head in her hands.
"K-Kaien-Dono, is this really you?"
The man scoffs "Of course…Kuchiki… I've….returned…" with those last words, Kaien fell unconscious. Panicked as ever, Rukia TRIED to pick him up but reality had hitted her very hard as she realized that her small stature couldn't pick this tall man up.
