Two sides, two kingdoms. Two powers, darkness and light. One Great War.

Hitsugaya Toshiro looked over at the headquarters, the high walls and the tight security. It was dark and he could count eight guards in his sight, he knew there were more, but they were well hidden. He gestured for his men to move forward, they were crouched down in the high weeds and were waiting till the guards changed positions; it was their signal to sneak in.

When the guards were to change positions, there would be no guard at the left wing for approximately two minutes, and that gave them enough time to get inside the headquarters. He had been assigned the task of sneaking into the Kingdom of Hueco Mundo, Toshiro and his men were to collect information about any sneak attacks that might occur. They had hung around for three days in bars and clubs, disguised as villagers, hoping to overhear any of the soldiers conversations related to the war, and any plan the leader, Sosuke Aizen might do. But they gained no lead, so he decided to change the plan and try to get into the main headquarters, he was sure that they will find what their looking for. All the files, weapons and plans were kept there.

Toshiro ran his hand through his spiky silver-white hair, and narrowed his teal eyes. He took hold of his night vision binoculars and looked at the left wing. He smirked to himself, the guard was leaving his position, and it was time for guard exchange.

He turned to his men, and gestured for them to move ahead. They stood up and raced to the high walls. Izuru Kira took out his rope and threw it high over the wall. He grasped it and tugged; he turned to his General and nodded.

"It's secured". Toshiro took hold of the rope and started to climb. He looked down at his fellow soldiers.

"Kira, you stay here and guard this place. The rest of you, follow me." He ordered, as he continued climbing.

Toshiro heaved himself off the wall, through a window, and landed gracefully on the ground. He took hold of Abarai Renji's hand and helped him through.

He then began to look at his surroundings. They had succeeded into breaking into the headquarters, but the hard part came next. After all his men came through the window, he told them to gather close.

"Alright, here is what we will do. There are over thousands of rooms here. I want you guys to split, and go through the East wing, that's where they keep the files. Go in two's, I shall go by myself. Be cautious, if anything, I will give you the signal, when you hear it. Leave, even if you're in battle-" He locked eyes with Ikkau Madarame "Alright, go now."

The men took off at a fast speed. Toshiro turned and looked down a long, narrow hall. He decided to take that route.

Toshiro walked down the hall, slowly. The halls lead to the East wing, it was a dangerous route, but it was shorter. He remembered before Aizen declared war on the Seireitei kingdom, everyone had lived in peace. He still recalled King Yamamoto's shock when Aizen declared war on him, and had built a whole army of followers in the kingdom of Hueco Mundo, in the capital of Las Noches. The two sides fought over power and land. King Yamamoto leading a whole kingdom, wanted to get hold of the neighboring Kingdom outside his boundaries, the one which Aizen ruled. That Kingdom had been causing a lot of disruptions to the Seireitei Kingdom. They had always planned sneak attacks and sent the strongest soldiers there. After two years of disruptions, Aizen declared full on war on Seireitei and King Yamamoto. He had found the legendary Espada's, a group of strong individuals that were ruthless fighters. He had convinced them to join his Kingdom, along with many others to overthrow King Yamamoto and the Seireitei Kingdom.

Toshiro had been sent for, as one of the strongest and most powerful men in Seireitei. Yamamoto had put him in charge of troops and had given him the position of General in his army. The army and troops were split in half between him and Kuchiki Byakuya, who was also assigned as General. Both Toshiro and Byakuya worked together and planned the attacks with the help of Zaraki Kenpatchi, who gladly joined the war, with his followers.

Toshiro frowned as he remembered what Momo Hinamori, his former fiancé had told him, when he told her that he was joining the war.

"Shiro-chan" She said, using the name she used for him from their childhood. "I can't wait for you, and knowing you're out there battling, could mean that you could die any minute. I don't want to feel that loss or grief. I'm sorry, but it's over." She had said, with tears in her eyes, voice broken.

He had accepted her wish and broke their arrangement to wed. Their parents had arranged their marriage, since they grew up together; they thought that they were meant for each other. Little did they know that he saw Momo as a friend. He tried to feel for her, but it never happened, he couldn't force his feelings towards her to change, it wasn't meant to be. Also, he didn't want her to wait for him, because it was possible that he may never come back, which was what Yamamoto couldn't guarantee them, their survival.

Kuchiki Byakuya was the first to join the war because the sneak attacks had been responsible for, his wife's death, Hisana Kuchiki. His grief had turned to hatred, but he was not out to seek revenge, but victory. Toshiro wanted to protect Seireitei, he was loyal to his people and Kingdom, and he was no coward to back down from battle. Besides, he found it more worthwhile then the paperwork he would have had to do if he declined King Yamamoto's request.

Also, he would have had to work with his partner Rangiku Matsumoto in his office, and he would have dreaded every moment of his life.

Matsumoto, you sink loving drunk head. He thought to himself, as his eyebrows furrowed. Getting drunk in my office, and never helping me with the endless amount of paperwork, how-

Toshiro's thoughts were interrupted when a figure stood in front of him, blocking his way. He quickly reached down to the hilt of his sword, but paused when he looked at the person who stood in front of him, defenseless.

She wasn't old, she seemed his age. She had long, wavy hair held with a ribbon, in a high ponytail. She narrowed her green eyes at him and pursed her cherry-coloured lips. She was his height; she wore a long kimono that hugged her slender figure. She was skinny, she had high cheek bones and high arched eyebrows. And she stared at him with her mesmerizing, intense green eyes. They were deep eyes, that kind of eye colour that you could look into and feel like your drowning. She was exotically beautiful, and she had nice features, that made her look like a kind person, if she wasn't glaring at him.

Toshiro dropped his hand to his side and glanced at the girl in front of him.

"Leave, I want you to leave at once", she said in her sweet voice, with authority.

Toshiro narrowed his eyes and sighed. "Why exactly would I do that?" He asked.

She tilted her head to the side, and the anger from her eyes vanished. "I don't want the guards to find you, or any of your men here, I'm sure you didn't come alone, If they do find you, there will be blood shed-" She looked down, frowning. "Please, leave. Don't force me to call the guards, save yourself and your men. Be wise".

Toshiro glared at her. "What makes you think I will give you the chance to call any guards?" He asked his eyes careful.

She looked up at him and looked him square in the eyes. "I don't think you will hurt me, you don't seem like that kind of man."

"And you can tell all this just by looking?" He asked, doubt in his eyes.

She smiled at him, kindly. "Yes" she said her voice sure.

Toshiro blinked in confusion. He didn't want to hurt the defenseless girl, but he needed to get hold of the files. He couldn't let Aizen get away with another sneak attack and Zaraki was getting impatient.

He sighed in defeat. "Alright, you're lucky it was me though because if it was any of my other men-" He pictured what Ikkau would do. "They would have not hesitated one second."

She smiled at him, sweetly. "And I'm grateful for what you did. I won't forget. What's your name, noble soldier?"

"That is information I cannot give to you." He said, in a stern voice.

She frowned slightly, but replaced it quickly with a small smile. "I understand, it's your duty. Well, thank you soldier."

Toshiro grunted and walked off to where he came from.

Back to where I started, just great. He thought. Baka! Who is she anyway?
