Rose had appeared in the Soul Society inside Squad 3's barracks. Unfortunately, Kira happened to have been sitting there at her old desk doing paperwork. She cringed as she took a step backwards out of view, causing the floorboards to creak noisily. Kira's head snapped up from the work, "Who's there?" He stood up, being extra cautious of his surroundings. Rose held her breath, just waiting for Kira to peek around the corner. Once he did, it was all over. She couldn't just call up her Shinigami side whenever she wanted; it took time - staying too long in the Soul Society would make her lean towards Shinigami, and vice-versa. Until that happened, Rose had to be super careful, and now it was all ruined. "Hello?" Kira drew his Zanpakuto and held it in front of him. Rose had only one chance. She stepped out in front of him. He looked alarmed, like he was going to start screaming 'Espada' and alert everyone. "Shh!" Rose whispered quickly, "Please, listen to me first." Kira shook his head, but sighed, "You have sixty seconds, so start talking." Rose nodded, "It's Ayame. This is, in fact, my Arrancar form. I only need a few days of secrecy before I start regaining my Zanpakuto and powers, so please help me." Kira's eyes widened, "Ayama... Taichou?" Grinning, Rose laughed, "The one and only!" "Alright," Kira laughed with her momentarily, then regained his seriousness, "three days, though. That's it, 'kay?" She smiled, so thankful to have a loyal Fukutaicho like Kira. "Thanks so much, Kira-Chan." She smiled and embraced him in a bear hug.
