OOC: Yes it is.

Shin chuckled at the new lieutenant and her shyness. It was very apparent to Shin that she was new at this, since she had said excuse me in such a nice way, though that could have just been the way she is. "Dont worry newbie, the jitters will go away in a few days, trust me." He remembered when he used to be a lieutenant, though he wasnt as calm as she was. As people had told him, he was very arrogant and cocky, being rude to almost everybody he had met, including the captains. Though on the inside, he was a little scared and afraid, but he would never admit that to anybody. "Just do your best and dont let anyone push you around. And if they do, beat them to a pulp." Shin gave her an devilish grin, but realized what he was doing and calmed down a bit, chuckling to himself.

Again, the odd captain had said something that was not even close to the topic that Mizuko and him were talking about. Shin raised his eyebrow and tried to determine what she was talking about. Why was she talking about the Visards at a time like this? Shin gave off a lazy salute and nodded. "Of course. every shinigami knows that much." Shin gave a scoff and again looked at the funny captain as she introduced herself again. "Yes You told us before, in case you forgot." Shin uneasily shook her hand. "You are not a normal captain, are you?"

Mizuko smiled and nodded. "Yes Captain, I will." she said to Shin. She then turned to Senna and also shook her hand. "Your right, but I wonder if exceptions can be made. Pleasure to meet you again Captain." she said.

Senna turned from the other captain to face the 10th division lieutenant more. With her hands on her hips Senna looked into Mizuko's eyes and demanded an explanation. "What do you mean by that, lieutenant? There is no exception to the law. 'It is forbidden for a Shinigami to acquire or attempt to gain Hollow-like powers.' That's it, no more, no less. There can be no exception or personal interpretation of it. No matter how they came across hollow powers if a shinigami acquires hollow powers they are in open transgression against the law. I cannot allow that."

By that time Senna had crossed her arms across her chest, the fingers of her right hand tapped the hilt of her sword. She waited and watched to see what they would do next. The other captain had agreed with her too quickly and acted suspicious as if he had something to hide. The lieutenant seemed like she could be a possible vizard sympathizer. Maybe she was just being paranoid again but she didn't want to take any chances with these two. Normal lovers of the law would have responded immediately as if it was just a given, these two had not. Senna continued to watch the pair.

It seemed that Captain Nikono felt strongly about shinigami gaining hollow powers, though he couldnt clearly see why. Was it because she had met one that had wronged her, or another similar incident. Shin smiled, knowing that this captain was a bit odd and was also the goody, two-shoes, law abiding shinigami that followed everything down to the book. He knew that some shinigami had made connections with visards in the past and even right now as they spoke. "Its true though. There have been many connections between the shinigami and visards, its actually not uncommon." Shin shrugged his shoulders, knowing that it was something that Senna did not want to hear. "They are every where in Karakura Town." Shin often thought that having hollow powers would actually help become the most powerful, though he soon abandoned that thought.

Shin caught notice of Senna's movement of tapping her hilt which surprised him. Was she actually going strike down two shinigami, a captain and lieutenant, based of suspicion? Shin gave off a light smirk and also kept his hand near the hilt of his sword, itching the side and waiting. "Hey now, Dont do something that you will regret."

Senna's eyes instinctively slid down to his hand. It scratched at the hilt of his word. "I knew it!" Senna thought as she continued to watch him. It seemed like she had struck a nerve with this one. Perhaps he was the Vizard sympathizer and not Mizuko as she had first guessed. The other captain continued on expressing his love for the vizard and even mentioned that they were everywhere in Karakura Town. She assumed he was in fact talking about himself and all of his vizard friends meeting up in the world of the living. Senna glanced back and forth rapidly before turning on her heels in the complete opposite direction and slowly walked away. She turned her head a few degrees to the left and called over her shoulder to the two she left behind.

"It was interesting meeting the two of you. We will be seeing more of each other soon, I promise. Oh and Captain Shintaro...I know your type -- it is so easy to see other people's problems from way up there on your pedestal. But you better be careful up there, 'cause if you fall off, and have to walk around down here with the rest of us? I don't know! You might catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror, the surface of a pond,or some poor naive girl's eyes .... And trust me, you're not gonna like what you see. Believe me when I tell you that I would not have regretted it had the law permitted me to take action." Senna patted the end of her zanpakuto and smirked at them. Her footsteps echoed in the alley as she left.

Mizuko looked between Senna and Shin as they talked. She felt kinda bad as she saw Senna leave. "I was going to say that I know a Vizard and he does not really seem that bad. In fact, he's in the 5th division if I recall." she said. She was sure that Senna had not heard her talk about Hikaru. She only wished that she was not the kind to play by the rules only. She then turns to Shin. "Hikaru is not a bad guy. I look to him like a brother. I don't think he'd be the same had he not been a vizard, I think. I do know he'd never hurt anyone intentinoally if he could help it." she said.

Shin had waited for Senna to make a move, though a thought kept banging against the inside of his head. Why would she want to? One side of Shin loved challenges, seeing as how he once held his own against a captain, he would for them to throw down, right here and right now. Although another side of him didnt want to, and explain to her that this was all just a big misunderstanding. But something told Shin that because this captain was strange, it wouldnt be easy to convince her. He crossed his arms and listened to the speech that Captain Nikono gave before she left, only to smirk and wave at her. "Nice to meet you too. Please visit me on my high pedestal. I get lonely sometimes, okay?" After his sarcastic rant, he gave her a rude gesture behind her back and smirk towards the lieutenant. "Sorry you had to see that." He chuckled lightly.

He listened to Mizuko talk about her friend who was a vizard and who was actually in the gotei 13, unknown to him. He shook his head and looked toward the way where Senna had left. "I dont know what her problem is with Vizards. There are bad ones, I wont lie about that, but stilll." He shrugged his shoulders and discarded the thought of Senna from his head and smirked. "If he is in the gotei 13, He cant be all bad."

Senna had raised her right hand and a finger in a rude gesture when she had heard Captain Shintaro's invitation to visit him on his pedestal. She was glad to be out of his sight and out of hearing distance. At least she would have been had she not caught the ending of their conversation. The two had admitted to aiding and abetting vizards and worse there were some in her beloved Seretei. She came to a complete stand still and slowly turned back towards the pair near the alley. Before she had been only slightly annoyed that even when she tried she couldn't get away from vizard sympathizers but now she was downright livid.

She stormed back towards them faster then she had left. She stood before them and couldn't decide whom to start with first so instead she closed her eyes, inhaled deeply and let it out slowly before opening her eyes again and speaking tot he both of them as calmly as she could muster.

"You have both just admitted to being at odds with the law." She snapped her fingers in Shintaro's face to make sure her words made it past his stupid smug expression. "I have been trying all day to be friendly with everyone and have even overlooked a few things to allow them more time to be in compliance with the law but this I cannot brush aside. I am done with playing childish games with all of you. The Captain-Commander has made it clear that there are to be no Vizard in Soul Society. I can't make you tell me who they are but I can report my findings to Shunketsu-sama and have you dealt with or if I am permitted I WILL return for the both of you in full force to make sure justice is served. Let's hear what witty remarks you two have to say to that."

Senna watched each of their faces and actually hoped they would spare her the trouble of doing an actual report and just openly attacked her. There was always less paperwork this way. Once in the world of the living she had witnessed two humans about to get into a scuffle and one of them taunted the other in a fashion Senna found to be good at antagonizing opponents so she decided to implement it here. She flung her arms out to her sides and held her palms open almost as if she was about to hug them then loudly proclaimed "Come at me bro!" Now she only had to wait to see if any of them would take her bait.

Mizuko smiled at Shin. "He's not really. He's helped me out quite a bit when I first came her."

She then watched as Senna came back. She is taken aback when she is told she is going against the law and that Hikaru should not be in the Soul Society. A few tears came to her eyes as she began to worry about Hikaru. "Hikaru has never hurt anyone. I'm proud to call him my friend. If you've got a problem with that......." She started off. She began to yell a bit before she then remembered that she was talking back to a captain. She then backs away a bit. She looks away and rubs her arm a bit. "Sorry Captain. It's just that I know that Hikaru is a good person and very loyal. I just don't see myself hurting him in any way, but I also don't want to get in trouble either. What can I do to fix this?"

She felt bad for rasing her voice to a Captain. She knew that if her own Captain found out she might be in trouble.

Shin looked at the lieutenant and could see that she was telling the truth, that this guy really was good. He must have been if Shin did not know that there was a vizard in our ranks, though that was something that the Captain-Commander didnt know. As he started to talk more about her friend, Senna came back and it looked liked she was about to go off.

Shin kept smirking, even when she was ranting about no vizards in the Soul Society. Mizuko started off yelling at the captain, which surprised him. He has never seen anybody yell at another of higher rank, well except for himself. But he didnt want to see anyone go down the same path as him, being as rebellious as him and not listening to higher ranks. He put out his hand in front of the lieutenant, telling her to stop talking. After she had apologized, Shin looked at Senna with a grim face, a face only a few had seen after he unleashed hell upon them. "I know how you play your little game, Senna." He pulled back his haori, revealing his sword, exactly how she wanted it to play out, but not exactly touching the sword. "You're thinking that If i attack you, you would go straight to the captain commander, without having to fill out paperwork." Shin lightly chuckled. "Pretty devious if you ask me."

He then pulled his jacket back and smirked at her. "But I wont make that easy for you. Lucky for you." He then thought that this wasnt going anywhere, and either way, she was going to report this to someone. "I dont want to make a scene, but if I must I will."
