Gin's Fear

Ichimaru Gin was afraid of nothing. So it was with surprise that Aizen heard his former lieutenant yelling at the top of his lungs.

"AIZEN-TAICHO!!!!!!!!"

Using shunpo, Ichimaru got as far away as he could from the bug invader. The roach scuttled around to face him again. Panicking, Ichimaru began to attack . "Shoot to death, Shinso!" The short zanpakuto elongated, sharp point smashing into the ground next to the roach. "Aizen-taicho!!! It escaped! Aizen-taichooo!!"

Giving a heavy sigh, Aizen turned to face in Ichimaru's direction. "So try again, Gin."

" I can't, Aizen-taicho! Shoot to death! It keeps moving!" Ichimaru shouted as he swung Shinso around, shooting it at the bug. The terrified roach scuttled away and ran in an arc around the ex-captain. Without waiting for a reply from Aizen, Ichimaru stopped the closest passing Hollow.

"Step on it!" he shouted, directing the Hollow where to stomp. "There, there! Don't look, just kill it!"

Raising its rather large foot, the Hollow brought it down with a deafening bang. Ichimaru smirked in triumph until he saw the roach. Standing. Unharmed. Next to his foot. "Aiiizennn-taichoooo! It's still alive!" he yelled, stomping frantically. "Die! Shoot to death!"

Once again, Aizen turned to the sounds of his former lieutenant's screams, Shinso crashing into the ground, and a Hollow smashing wherever Ichimaru pointed and yelled 'die'. As the former fifth division captain walked towards the ruckus, he could hear the other man shouting kidou spells at the multi-legged creature. Aizen came into view of Ichimaru right as he stepped back into his attack stance.

"Aizen-taicho! Shoot to death, Shinso! Aizen-taicho!" he yelled, Shinso shooting forth again. The zanpakuto's tip finally managed to pin the fleeing roach. Blinking, Ichimaru stood up straight. "Eh?" the stunned ex-Third division captain stared and then began smiling.

Retracting Shinso, Ichimaru turned and ran to find Aizen. "Yatta! Aizen-taicho! I did it! I killed-" Ichimaru had run straight into Aizen.

Aizen glanced around at all the holes from Shinso, burn marks from kidou, and pieces of rubble laying everywhere. "I can see that you killed it. But, do you think you might have killed it with a little less destruction?"

If at all possible, Ichimaru's grin grew wider.

"Nope!"
