Lilith took her queue and calmed down. Though her yelling was more of a 'show some respect,' it may have been a little loud because of the emotional ties she had to the case. Lilith would not apologize, but she took a deep breath and regained some control over herself. As the conversation shifted to the youngest in the room, everyone turned to him. His reasoning was sound and he spoke more logically. J was impressed to hear it from someone so young. He agreed that Yua should be punished, but death was not needed in this case. The sheer emotional stress that both of those women were going through was beyond his ability to understand. Midori glanced to Gen, and if he happened to look up, she gave a small nod to him. In reality, she did agree, but she wanted someone to speak up for Yua.
Midori returned to her spot in the lines of Captains. Captain Montgomery spoke up and surprised everyone as well. Midori giggled at the statement, finding the semi-pout a little cute. Lilith smirked. J nodded. Reika sighed. And that was settled. Well, people thought it was settled until Reika spoke up. "Actually, yes." she stepped forward, her hands in her pockets, "If we are going easy on someone who attempted to kill our own, I request that we show our own the same treatment. I have evidence gathered from nineteen of the attacks. In each attack, the attacker was plagued by an unknown source of reiryoku. If I test Lieutenant Gen-whatever, I can almost guarantee that he will have the same results. If he does, I can say that the reiryoku invades the body and mind. It wasn't his fault."
"And so if I can prove my findings, it would mean that Yua Ichinose attacked an innocent man. Not only that, but she's a trespasser in the Seireitei. I've already had my people checking and there aren't any records of her getting a pass into the Seireitei. In fact, the only record of a Yua Ichinose is over two-hundred years old and it's pretty much empty. Haven't been able to find the original record, so far. My people are still working... However, as I said, if we're going easy on a stranger, if I prove my findings... the loud-mouth is completely innocent." Midori was stunned. J was intrigued. And Lilith was pissed. She stepped up behind Reika, who only turned as the hair on her head quite literally began to stand up in reaction to Lilith's reiatsu leaking out. "Are you implying we go easy on the man wh-..."
"Raped your daughter. Yes." Reika pushed her glasses up her nose and put her hands back in the pockets of her lab coat. Her Captain's haori hung like a sport jacket over her shoulders. She never liked wearing that thing. "As I said, if I prove my findings then Lieutenant shit-talker is actually innocent. He may be a dick, but if I'm correct, which I usually am on... well, everything... It means that he was not in control of his body when it occurred. He may not even know what did happen that day. He could have blacked out and been used as a puppet. That we are unsure of at this moment... Either way, in finding out what occurred that night. Do we punish someone who did nothing? Who was used? I understand your attachment, but it does not matter what Hidan's body did to her if his mi-..."
