"Good evening,young master Ichigo,my,you're soaking!"but he didn't answer him
"I have a emergency,Where is my Father?!"
"In his study room"
"Gotcha!"he rushes to the study room at the 3rd floor
"Father!there's two witches seen in the river and they're attacking a girl!"
Sousuke closed his book,"Two??where's Tousen and Gin?"
"I don't know about Tousen but Gin is already there,we're taking a walk together when we met those witches"
"Okay,let's go"Sousuke took his sword and rushes away
"Yeah...you go ahead i still need to catch my breath..."Ichigo throw himself to the couch,"Man...this is the life..."

the tree of them sheath their sword the short woman speaks with a deep voice,"Where is the boy?!"
"Now now...do you think i would answer that easily?come on Rukia,let me see how much you have grown"Gin smirks
Rukia glares at him"Don't say my name with your filthy mouth you traitor!"she raise her sword,"DANCE!SODE NO SHIRAYUKI!"her plain sword turn into a beautiful pure white sword with a long white ribbon in the end of it's hilt
"Shoot and kill them...SHINSOU!"his short sword shines brightly and it grows long and shoot her
"Next dance,WHITE RIPPLE!"her ribbon become hard and it stabs to the ground then a massive wave of ice shoots out freezing everything in front of her,Gin can't dodge it completely his sword got caught in the ice and half of his body is frozen,"Now TALK!"Kuchiki point her sword to him
"Impressive...as expected from the Kuchiki family...speaking of it how's your brother did he still cold as ever?"Gin grins widely
Rukia looks angry"SHUT UP!if you don't want to tell us then we'll find him by ourself!now..."Gin cut her and his face turn serious,"How is she doing?"
"...what?"Rukia's surprise to hear that"Rangiku,is she doing fine?"Gin open his tiny eye
"Um..."Rukia seems uneasy,she look at her partner they all fell into silence until suddenly her partner realize something,"Rukia watch out!"someone shoots a thunder blade toward Rukia luckily she manage to dodge,it missed and destroy the ice

Yoruichi sheath her sword"It better be look who finally show his face"she point to the front,Rukia look back and see Aizen Sousuke with a blind guy walking beside him
"Hey,what took you guys so long?"Gin smiles at them
"What?did we interrupt you Gin?"Aizen leering at him
"Well,maybe a little"
"Hmph"Aizen sheath his sword,"...i didn't know you guys can find us this fast"
"Things that are rotten can never hide long"Yoruichi's eyes sparkle dangerously,"Now that we've found your hiding place you got nowhere to run!"
"Hmph why should we run?do you think you can get out from here alive?"Aizen smiles mischievously
Yoruichi giggles"Hmph,who said i'm going to fight you?"after finishing her sentence she cast a spell and create a smoke wall"Come on Rukia!we have to inform the others!"
"Understood!"both of them flash steps away from there
"Gin,Kaname...follow them..."Aizen snaps his finger
"Yes sire"both of them follow his order
"...hello there little miss,are you okay?"he smiles tenderly to the girl that's been hiding behind the tree,"Come on you can get out now"

"My,it's you Inoue-chan,what are you doing in here at this time?"
"I-i don't know i was sleeping in my bed and-and next those two witches in front of me and and..."she's so tense that all her word ismessed up

Gin and Kaname manage to catch up with the witches,hundreds of magic ball flying over the sky just like a shooting star
"Rukia!use your second dance now!"Yoruichi shouts as she dodge Kaname's attack
"Understood!"Rukia concentrate
"I won't let you!"Kaname shoots a fire ball toward Rukia but it was neglected by Gin's wind blade
"?!"Rukia and Yoruichi are shock seeing that,gin put his finger in front of his mouth to make them silent
"Damn!i missed!"Kaname is going to shoot another one but it was too late
"...Next dance...White Ripple!"in just a second both of them is frozen,both Rukia and Yoruichi is looking at gin,he's mouthing"Go" and they reply by a silent "Thank you"then they run away
"Man...we're so close huh Kaname?"Gin talking casually to Kaname
"...even though i can't see but i can still feel something is going on..."he frowns
"Sca...ry..."they both fell into a long silent
Arno River,
Outer Forest
Ichigo is looking for the other when he saw a huge ice shooting out at the west he quickly follows it,"OOII!!GIIN! KANAMEEE! FATHER!!where are you guys??answer meee!!"but there was no answer so he keep running,after a while he finnaly find Gin and Kaname half frozen in the middle of the forest,"Gin!Kaname!are you guys alright??"
"Oh hi there young master,finally a help to break this awkward silence..."Gin smiles widely at him
"W-what happened to you guys?those witches so this to you guys?"Ichigo look around and see almost half the wood looks like it's winter,"Whoa lucky i did't came here sooner..."
"Um...if you could,will you set us free first?we're freezing here!"Gin protested
"Oh sorry!okay here goes...HEAAHH!"Ichigo pull out his sword and slash the ice but it's too hard so nothing happens,"Dang it's so hard,this is gonna take a while..."finally after 9 hits the ice breaks
"At last...half of my body is numb!"Gin wipe some ice from his shirt,"How bout you Kaname?"
"...hmph..."he didn't answer,he flash steps and leave them
"Ouch that's hurt..."Gin just smiles seeing that
"What's up with him?what did you do?"Ichigo asks
"Oh nothing he just in a bad mood so let's get back now,okay?"
"Yeah okay hey so tell me about those witches they must be so powerful that they can defeat you guys oh and where's my father?"
"They are quite strong and quick,plus tricky but even if we lost them now i'm sure they'll come back soon"
Ichigo seems a little tense,"They are?why did you sounded so sure?"
"Because they want something from us"
"What is it?"
"Sorry but i can't tell you,and i shouldn't told you this either but oh well,keep this a secret okay?"
"Tch,sure..."
Aizen's Family manor,
Front Hall
"We're baack"Gin opens the door and three butler came to welcome them
"Welcome home,let me take your coat"a green eyed butler took their coat
"Thank you Ulquiorra,hey could somebody draw me a bath?use the usual scent for me,but use milk okay?i'm freezing here"Gin gives his coat to the butler
"Sure thing,need anything else?maybe young master Ichigo want some bath too?"a black haired butler that looks so much like Ichigo offer himself
"Nah...thanks Arro but i think i'm going straight to bed,good night"he climb the stairs,the blue haired butler laugh
"Hahah!draw you a bath?!yeah right!now that he's sleeping let's start the meeting already!"he pull out a sword that he hid in his coat
"Grimjoww your voice is too loud what if he hears you??"Arro protests
"Shut up you ugly faces!now come on!"he stab his sword to the air and suddenly a portal came out
Inside the portal
"So,every body's here"Aizen welcome them they're at a big room filled with people,"Let us start the meeting shall we?take a seat"
everyone take a seat,then Aizen starts the meeting,"I'll get to the point now and i don't want any interruption 'till i finish,as you know tonight they have found us this probably just a coincidence"he leers to Gin that is smiling calmly then he continues,"and because of that we have to prepare for battle because they can came here anytime,so i wanna ask about the progression of the awakening...Ulquiorra?"
"Yes sire,she has fallen for him for quite some time but he hasn't notice her at all,and the other side he hasn't fell into anyone yet,ever..."Ulquiorra answer with a flat tone
"Is that so?that means we have to find the love of his life first and kill her before they met so he can love our queen with out anyone bothering"a feminine boy offers an idea
"Yeah if he didn't met her how will we know who he loves?and if he didn't met the love of his life then nothing can trigger the awakened of our queen!geez can you get any stupider Luppy?"a super thin man mocks him
a vein pops on Luppy's head,"Shut up!like you have any better idea,Nnoitra!"
"..."
"HAH!you don't have any did you?!"
"Luppy,silence"Kaname warn him
"I also have another report sir,i believe Kurosaki Ichigo has got some 'contact' from them,because he seems to talk in his dream a lot"Ulquiorra add some more
"A 'contact' huh?interesting,what exactly did he say?"Aizen seems interested
"It's different every time,so i think there's two forces that 'contact' him when he's scared he said things like 'i'm not you king! leave me alone!' and 'you freak!'then for the other one he said things like 'what?what did you say?' or 'don't leave me yet!' then 'tell me who you are' and 'i can't hear you...' those are the ones that came out a lot"
"Hmm...i'm not you king leave me alone?i bet that's our queen that's calling him"a girl with a tattoo on her face giggles
"Hahah,good point Cirruci,i agree with 'ya"Nnoitra grins widely
"Enough with chit chat,we have Inoue in our hands already,just a little more then we can wake her up we just need to make her jealous right?there's a lot of hot girl around here just pick some of us to seduce that brat and made her jealous how 'bout Cirruci?or Hallibel?she's hot right?"Luppy sounds a little bored
Aizen is reading a very large book seriously,"No,we don't have to do that?"
"Why?"Luppy seems a little disappointed his idea get refused
"According to the legend their 'sparks' always happen at the 15th of June"he closes the book and smiles mischievously
