Many years have passed since Arya reincarnated into this world.
Yet another peaceful day in squad 11, there was heavy clashing sounds from the training grounds and many are headed out for patrolling.
"Ikkaku how many times do I have to tell you, I can easily predict all of you attacks I can see you move in a slow motion" arya spoke while deflecting a attack.
"That does not mean anything to me, today I will beat you and take that 3rd seat position back" Ikkaku screamed and attacked again, only to be dodged by arya.
"I told you, I can see your moves in slow motion. Now you will divided your zanpakuto" I said and dodged his move.
"Then you will move forward and slash at me with all your strength" I said and ikkaku did the exact same, I countered with a punch to his gut, causing him to fell back.
"Admit defeat, with this our record will be 1000 to 378" I said, after mastering the observation haki level 2 I have reached to a different level. I am even able to sense and dodge captain zaraki's attacks, with my abilities increasing to a good level, I am confident in battling against captain level soul reapers.
"That is the 3rd seat, his is on a whole different level", "It was still only few years before that the 3rd seat was not able to win against 4th seat ikkaku but now, 3rd seat arya has improved so much it is shocking".
"Ikkaku if you want to defeat me, you have to go all out. At this level of spiritual pressure you can never defeat me" I said, 'I was not arrogant to think I can defeat ikkaku in his bankai. I do have a better chance to win against him but ikkaku tends to grow stronger when he fights with his life on line'.
Ikkaku clinched his fists tightly, he knew that he lost if his opponent can tell what he will do before he has done it, but it did not feel good.
"So Arya, you seem to have warmed up. How about fighting to death" Captain zaraki suddenly slashed at me.
A big smoke rose, after the smoke cleared ikkaku was laying on the floor while arya was running for his life.
It was just a year ago when arya dodged zaraki's attack when fighting with a hollow, zaraki did not mind who gets caught between his fight he did not care as of whom he attacked as long as he attacked his target.
This caught zaraki's interest, then to test arya he attacked few more time only for arya to dodge it with ease.
Well once you caught zaraki's interest to fight it is as terrifying as getting caught by captain mayuri for his experiments.
"I am never fighting with you" Arya's scream was heard by everyone. Everyone nodded their head with approval while zaraki was disappointed.
"What a coward" Zaraki said and left to chase arya.
"Thank god! captain zaraki's sense of direction is so terrible" I was relived and went back to the training ground.
Squad 11 was a bit special, since our lieutenant was useless in dealing with any kind of paper works or official duties, I had to do it.
But squad 11 had support from squad 4 who would do all out reports, no we did not bully them they did it out of good will for all these years.
Just like any other day I had to check the documents and submit this to squad 1.
"Hello lieutenant rangiku. How are you doing" I saw squad 10 new lieutenant so I greeted her.
"Hello 3rd seat arya, looks like you are doing your lieutenants work again. I wish I also had someone like you in my squad" she said, as we entered the squad 1 barracks and submitted.
"Say arya-san, you and 4th seat kyoko of squad 5 are married for more that few decades right, why have you not got a child yet" She asked,
"Well we want to enjoy for some more years, and kids are permanent, painful to maintain and addictive like drugs so I took care to not have kids until a long time. Also it would be helpful if you don't ask this to kyoko even by chance, or else I have to hear to her nagging for days" I said, and left. (I too don't know how kids are born in soul society so going with general assumptions).
After a while another lady joined rangiku.
"Kyoko your husband has a lot of valid points, it is hard to convince him with words" rangiku said while looking at kyoko.
"What points, he is the head of kozuki family. He is the last only male in the family, how could he say he does not want kids" Kyoko said looking down.
"There is actually a way to convince him. Bring your ear closer… psh, psh, psh" Rangiku said to kyoko something causing kyoko's face to turn red.
…
Few months later
"Arya-san you have to hurry, kyoko-san suddenly fainted, and she is in the squad 4 barracks now" Yumiko the current 7th seat of squad 5 informed me, while I was in the middle of training other squad members.
"What happened?" I asked her and rushed to squad 4 barracks without thinking much.
"She was unwell from morning, she told she is ok, but then she fainted suddenly. She was sent to squad 4 barracks immediately and I came to inform you" She replied, after hearing her I used flash step to arrive at squad 4 barracks.
…
I saw kyoko resting on a bed, I wanted to ask someone on what happened but the one inspecting was captain unohana so I stayed silent.
After some time she came out.
"You must be arya kozuki, patient kyoko's husband. First of all congrats you are going to be a father" Captian unohana said.
"Really" I asked, I don't know what to say. "Can I see her" I asked, "yes you can, she is fine just take care of her from now on" captain unohana said with a smile.
"I will thank you" I said and I went in to hold her hands, "How are you" I asked, "I am fine" I heard her which made me relived.
"I love you, thank you" I said while kissing her forehead.
"Thank you" I said again as a tear came from my eye.
I had applied for leave for a year and took care of her, I wanted to be as careful as possible, she is the only relative for me in this world and I would rather lose this world than her.
We had frequent visitors, from captain aizen and gin to ikkaku and other.
Finally we had our first baby, it was a baby boy. He was so small that I was afraid that our spiritual pressure would affect him so I took a special high class room for them which had protection from others spiritual pressure.
"Arya-san our baby" Kyoko said, she was crying. But I was not any better; I had lived as orphan in my past life. Even though I was happy back then, my life got much better after kyoko. I was afraid to have any more bonds as I did not want to lose anyone.
"What should we name him Arya-san" Kyoko asked, "We should name him, yes I have not thought of any name yet. May be levi, eran, luffy, zoro" I become confused, this question had been in my mind for a long time now.
"What do you suggest" I asked since I was very indecisive.
"How about, Minato" She said, A smile appeared on my face.
"This is our son minato kozuki" I said.
…
A year later
I have a nightmares, it has been a hard time since I was not able to sleep properly ever since I have this new alarm clock called baby in my house.
Sometimes it is way too good like heaven, and sometimes I regret spending time on the baby, especially when he cries at mid night. Even with superhuman powers and being one of the top soldiers of soul society I am serving a baby for all his need.
Once he grows up I will make him suffer, I spoke to myself as I changed his dippers. I wanted to get a caretaker for him, but I just had to take the best hospital room which cut my savings into half. Hospitals are very expensive.
"Kyoko, here I have changed his dippers. I have to go to squad 11 barracks for conducting group training for new recruit, so I am leaving" I said and disappeared immediately.
"Arya" Kyoko did not even have a chance to stop him as arya was already gone.
"Sigh, minato father does not love you much. Mother will take care of you" She played with the baby and got ready and took the baby with her to work.
