What Could've Been

by Haylie Myers

What would have happened if Gin had decided to let Rangiku in on the plan to defeat Aizen, how would this have changed the overall battle and the lives of those around them. Read to find out.

1. Chapter 1

New story, don't know what to name it, if you have an idea please let me know.

This first Chapter is an introductory chapter. The next chapter I actually wrote was the third chapter. Then i wrote the second Chapter filling in the middle. I wrote the end first, thats where my main inspiration was originally then, i got ideas for the middle. I may still add more to the middle or even the end in the future. Most of it follows the main storyline with a few differences.

please enjoy

When Aizen, Tousen and Gin are caught as traitors Rangiku holds her sword to Gin's throat, hoping that if Aizen is defeated now. This way only one of them will need to be pardoned. They would also have more of a reason that would make sense to the rest of Gotei 13. Sadly this does not happen.

When the light comes down, Rangiku removes her sword from Gin's throats and sheaves it. She then stands by his side as they are both taken to Hueco Mundo with Aizen.

Apparently she was also a traitor to the Gotei 13.

Her last words are to her captain "I'm sorry Taicho, but you know why I had to do this, I can't leave him, goodbye"

Hitsugaya and Hinamori then request a meeting with Yamamoto.

Once inside the Squad 1 barracks, in a private room that no one can spy on. Hitsugaya and Hinamori inform that both Ichimaru Taicho and Matsumoto Fuku-Taicho are still loyal to the Soul Society and the Gotei 13. They have joined Aizen to find a way to defeat him from the inside, while the two of them work from the outside. They know the true power of his Zanpakuto and need to find a way to defeat him.

Before they leave they discuss Hinamori's squad. It is decided that Hinamori will become acting Captain of squad 3, until a time a Captain is appointed or after the war and Hinamori can become named Captain as keeping her full power a secret is important in defeating Aizen.

Hitsugaya informs Yamamoto he will take Ichigo back to his home in the world of the living. Hinamori may be called to join him if necessary.

According to the rest of the Gotei 13 the meeting was about naming Hinamori acting Captain.
