Chapter 1: It's the World That's Crazy.

This spiritual pressure...! It was strong, I knew it wouldn't take Ichigo and the others to get to it's source, the two Arrancars. I knew what they were, I knew Sosuke Aizen had created them. Gin Ichimaru had told me long ago, before he went to Hueco Mundo, what Aizen would be doing. I have to get to the park... Looking around to make sure no one was watching, I jumped onto the roof of a house and ran towards the park with the aid of shun-po (flash step).

Hiding, I saw that Chad, Orihime, and even Tatsuki were down. Ichigo wasn't doing too good either as he struggled with the large, dark skinned Arrancar. Another Arrancar, one who looked more like a human with black hair and pale gray skin, was just watching. Observing for Aizen probably...

Soon enough, Ichigo was down too, a slight fear in his eyes. This fear though, was not completely directed at the Arrancar about to kill him by just stomping on him. By the way he got down, it seemed he was arguing with something unseen...

His inner hollow...He's afraid of him. I thought to myself. That's when Urahara and Yoruichi showed up to save Ichigo's sorry ass.

Yoruichi had cut off the large Arrancar's arm. He wasn't too happy about that, and as I watched, he was about to attack her until the other Arrancar yelled, "Yammy, we're done here, let's go!" "B-but Ulquiorra-" "No. We've spent enough time in Karakura Town, we need to leave," he looked directly at the spot where I was hiding, "and bring that girl, Aizen said to get her." Yammy flash-stepped over and pulled me out of the bushes by my hair.

"Let go of me!" I screamed, somewhat angrily and struggling to get out of his grasp. "Kotomi!" I heard Urahara yell. The opening to Hueco Mundo appeared and Yammy and Ulquiorra left, taking me with them.

Yammy didn't let go of my hair until we arrived at Hueco Mundo and he threw me to the ground. "Ouch, dammit... Couldn't you have put me down when the opening closed? You know I wasn't gonna run away!" Yammy shrugged, "I like to see Soul Reapers squirm in pain." I was just about to smack his mouth off clean when a familiar voice said, "Now, now, you should be nice to her. She's much more powerful than she seems and could kill you easily." I turned around to face him, blushing slightly. Then I glomped him.

"Gin!" "I missed you too," he said, laughing and kissing my head.

Now, you can't be shocked at this when I say my struggle was only an act. I love Gin Ichimaru very much. I did this out of love, don't call me crazy. As my father, the Bount, Jin Kariya, once told Ichigo, "I'm sane. It's the world that's crazy."
