Playing With Other Supernaturals

After eating the sumptuous dinner and cleaning up the table, everyone is lazing around while drinking their preferred beverages and sitting on either couch or wooden chair. Kisuke also took out various sweets for dessert which were enjoyed by everyone.

Sona was about to say her thanks and goodbye but stopped herself after she saw Kisuke sports a large grin suddenly. Kisuke suddenly took out another plate of cookies and placed it on top of his hand.

'It can't be, right?' Sona thought as a certain little girl in gothic lolita fashion emerges in her mind.

And just as she thought, Ophis, still in her gothic lolita fashion, appeared with motes of dark purple lights.

Everyone is shocked, though differently, except for Kisuke and Yoruichi.

Sakura and Koneko are still concerned about the danger of her presence. She is, after all, the legendary Ouroboros Dragon that is said the strongest in the world. But they still can approach and play with her.

Sona is acting like the first time she met Ophis, her movements became rigid and cold sweat started to appear, 'Why is she here again!?'

Sona is doing everything to stay calm but Tsubaki still noticed her out of sort expression. Tsubaki looked back and forth between the little girl and Sona and wondering why Sona's face kept twitching minutely from time to time. Tsubaki's interest in the unknown little girl spiked up, 'Who is she? A relative of Urahara? She teleported here without using any magic circle, how did she do that? And why are they allowing her to wear something like that? Urahara Kisuke's interest? Didn't think he would drop so low... I have to warn the President about her security around him.'

Akeno, Momo, and Ruruko are also a bit curious, but that's all. They were also questioning how she could teleport without the use of a magic circle, but the world is big and all sorts of abilities aside from magic floats around that are hard to explain.

Ophis looked around and saw that all seats are taken, so she opts for an alternative by walking towards Kisuke and sitting on his lap. Kisuke's smile grew bigger when she did this and started feeding her with cookies on his hand.

Aika, who is sitting beside Kisuke, saw Ophis sat and started munching on the cookie in Kisuke's hand and immediately protested, "No fair, I also wanted to do that! Come here, Ophis-chan. This Nee-san will feed you something better... Oi Kisuke, take out the rest."

Ophis ignored Aika for now as she's still enjoying the sweet taste in her mouth.

Tsubaki can't contain her curiosity anymore and asks Sona who almost turned into stone in her seat, "Uhmm, Kaichou. Who's she?"

"I know her, but you should ask Kisuke if you want to know about her more. Don't ask why I can't answer and I also suggest to just ignore her." Sona is now regretting not leaving early. If she knew that Ophis would be coming today, she would have postponed this apology trip.

Now all of those who saw her for the first time today are shocked at Sona's response which isn't like her at all. After inspecting her closely, they all noticed that Sona's back is already drenched in sweat and it seems that all her attention is on the cute little girl with a weird attire munching happily on her cookie.

"Urahara-kun, can you tell us who is this little girl?" Tsubaki didn't follow Sona's advice as her curiosity currently peaked. Akeno, Momo, and Ruruko are also listening intently as this might be something important.

"Hmmm... Let's see, how should I explain this? For starters, her name is Ophis." Kisuke didn't even look at them and focused on feeding the little glutton.

"Ophis? Her surname?" Tsubaki continued asking.

"No surname, just Ophis."

'Someone who doesn't have a surname? Chances are she has a troublesome past so better not dig into it deeper.' Tsubaki thought to herself, "How are you related? And what is she doing here this late at night? Wouldn't those who are taking care of her be very worried?"

"We are not related in any way. I don't know who's taking care of her, but she would sometimes come here to get some share of sweets."

'Hmmm... I can't think of anything to ask for me not to go deeper. Why did the President have that kind of reaction... If I were to choose one, it's fear?' Tsubaki stopped asking questions as it seems like Kisuke didn't really want to tell her anything. Tsubaki thought that she should just ask Sona later to get some answers.

When Ophis finished the cookies on Kisuke's plate, Sona found the courage to say what she wants to say all this time, "Kisuke, Sakura-san. Thank you for your hospitality. Since we have accomplished what we ought to do, we would like to say our goodbyes leave. I'll bring something next time as thanks." Sona hurriedly stood up and urging the rest of the guests to stand up too. But too bad for her, since this night would become one of her most unforgettable memories.

Kisuke looked up and was about to reply but he felt some disturbance on Ophis' aura. He looked at her again and saw that she's staring at Aika and remembered the strange energy the red dragon planted on her a few nights ago.

Ophis finished the cookies but still unsatisfied, so she looked for the next target that would feed her and remembered that there is another one who can. She switches her vision to the plate of cookies on Aika's hand but notices something weird on the person holding her favorite food. She then transferred her attention to Aika and her eyes opened a little bit, but this small action is a testament to her shocked feeling as there is almost nothing that can draw her attention.

Ophis noticed the energy of her hated nemesis resting inside Aika's Sacred Gear and she pouted. Like a child who doesn't want to be outdone by her hated playmate, she suddenly conjured a black snake made of pure energy from her and it flew towards Aika's chest disappearing inside it.

Even Kisuke was shocked at her actions. Although he could have stopped Ophis many times before the black snake even reached Aika, his curiosity is greater and really wanted to know what would happen. If the energy she sent to Aika has only negative effects on her, Kisuke would immediately use his Bankai to remove that energy from her.

Everyone stopped moving and put all of their attention to Aika, and Aika herself is blankly staring at her chest.

A few seconds after the black snake entered Aika, a sudden heartbeat was heard. It wasn't loud, but strangely enough, everyone heard it clearly and it's accompanied by the regal aura of a dragon. This heartbeat resounded throughout the whole town and adjacent parts of the next towns. All denizens

of the supernatural world, whether they are hiding in the town, peacefully enjoying their lives or just coincidentally passing by, all heard the heartbeat with its aura that spread everywhere instantly making it very hard for someone even with highest skills in detection to pinpoint where it came from, but it's only a matter of time before they find it.

"Kisuke!" Yoruichi shouted, rousing everyone from their stupor and the newcomers had another shock, 'The cat talked!'

At the same time, Yoruichi called him, Kisuke tapped his foot to activate a multi-layered barrier to stop the aura from spreading to outside.
