Hey sorry for the long wait! Here is the next part in my Las Noches holidays! This one is -It's the thought that counts- Enjoy:) oh and thank you to my very first fan of this story! It is really hard to write exactly how I want because I am doing all of this from an IPod so thank you so much for liking my story!
I'm sorry if you actually like Tousen because there is a lot of Tousen bashing moments in this story. I apologize in advance. I used to like Tousen, you know he was the cool badass blind guy who completely kicks butt. But then he betrayed soul society and I was like well ok he's fine I guess. But then came the Arrancar arc and you met the amazing Grimmjow! Then Tousen cut Grimmjows arm off hand since then I have been hoping that he may forever burn in hell. So sorry. But enjoy the rest!
It's the thought that counts
"ok everyone it's time for some more holiday cheer!" Gin satiated with a huge grin on his face. He was up to his usual holiday antics. Which meant something bad was going to happen. Which also meant that everyone was screwed. At least that was what everyone else was thinking when they heard those terrible words come out of Gins mouth.
Even Azein was silently praying for the best. He didn't exactly have the best thanksgiving. And he wasn't even going to mention halloween. Although the Halloween incident was Sayzels fault.
Most of the espada where frozen in fear. Others had looks of annoyance. Everyone looked at each other ( except Tousen hahahaha) (that bastered) and the same question was running through there heads. Who was going to reply.
It was after a long pause it was Grimmjow finally spoke up. "what holiday are we celebrating now?" he asked in an annoyed tone. The look on his face was not that of a happy camper.
Gins smile got larger ( if that's even possible) "well it's called Christmas! The holiday of giving!" he replied. He pulled out a medium sized bucket from his sleeve. This left all of the espada and Azein sitting in wonder of how the hell he did it.
"what is that trash for?" Uluquiorra asked in a emotionless tone. "secret Santa of course!" Gin stated.
Everyone already new about Christmas (all thanks to Gin and his real world classes) so they new who Santa was. They all had partial relief when they heard that. They thought it would be worse. Hey and guess what it was going to...
Gin first walked to Azein " ok well Since Tousen is blind cha guys are gunna to work ta'gether ya guys get two pieces of paper. But Azein don't say the names out loud!" Azein sighed with a look of defeat and reached into the bucket. The two names where Tia, and Zommori. Azein leaned over and whispered the names in Tousens ear so no one would hear. "we are screwed" Tousen whispered back. "yep" Azein added in a whisper.
Next Gin walked over to Uluquiorra who silently pulled out a piece of paper. On the inside he was in total shock because on the little sheet of paper it said Grimmjow. He had no idea what to do. He just sat there with his mouth open slightly looking down at the paper.
Mean while Gin went to the next person which was Stark who was sleeping, face on the table, with a little drool coming out. As Gin walked up he slapped he back of Starks head. Instantly there was a reaction, Starks hands flew strait up to his head as he yelled ouch.
"grab a piece of paper and don't say da name." Gin stated slightly annoyed at Stark. Stark blinked and put his hand in the bin. He looked down at the piece of paper with the name Azein written on it. He gave a small smile and went back to sleep.
Gin sighed at Stark and went to the next person, Nitora. Nitora was impatiently tapping his fingers on the table waiting for this to be over. When Gin got to him he quickly grabbed a piece of paper and pulled out the name. He looked at it and snarled in disgust. The name on the paper was Aaroniero. He quickly tried to reach for a different paper but Gin slapped his hand. " no take-back-zzeis!" he said.
"f-k" Nitora replied. Grimmjow looked over at Gin and he was pretty sure that Gin was smiling at Nitora's pain. Grimmjow laughed and his eyes went to the next victim. It was just Tia. She probably wouldn't have the funny reaction he was looking for. Grimmjow sighed and rested his head on the table.
Quickly Herribel pulled out the piece of paper and looked it it had Gin written on it. She remained reaction less and put away the paper.
Next was Aaroniero who seamed rather excited. His higher voice was squeaking with joy. He quickly snatched a name from the bin and looked at it. Baragon was written on the paper. He then quickly put the paper away and folded his hands together.
Next Yammy pulled out a slip of paper. He had a rather bored expression on his face and he he smiled slightly when he read Stark on the slip. He already knew exactly what to do. Gin then traveled to the next chair.
Baragon was waiting in annoyance. He was king he shouldn't have to do these stupid things that Gin came up with. However he did like Thanksgiving with the turkey, it tasted rather good to him. Baragon pulled out a paper while thinking of turkey. The name on the paper was Tousen. He sighed and Gin smiled sweetly while continuing on.
Sayzel was the next person, he flipped his hair and reached for a paper. It of course ended up being Nitora. Sayzel glanced over to the Quinta espada, his mind reeling with possibilities. Everyone looked at Sayzel hoping to not be the 'lucky one' that got picked by Sayzel. seriously no one wanted the Halloween incident to happen again. ...Ever...
Next was Zommori who's eyes followed Gin has he made his way to his chair. Gin slightly creeped out kept his distance so he would only have to be close enough for Zommori to be able to read the bucket. He reached in and pulled out the name Yammy.
Then Gin walked towards Grimmjow. All eyes where on both of them as Gin approached. Grimmjow realized that it was finally his turn. "damn " he whispered under he breath. He shot his hand into the bucket and pulled out a name "f-k" he stated. The paper said Uluquiorra which meant Grimmjow was royally screwed.
Grimmjow sighed and slammed his head down onto the table. It was just his luck to get Ulquiorra's name, and it severely pissed Grimmjow off at his luck. Because Gin was behind Grimmjow, Grimmjow was unable to see Gin's demonic smile. Even Nitora was slightly creeped.
Gin then pulled out the last paper and looked at the name he had it said Sayzel, and Gin showed no emotion upon reading the name. Then he quickly put the paper away and clasped his hands together.
"okey now that that is done I will explain," he stated. Everyone in the room groaned in annoyance like a high school class that just got told by your teacher that you were taking a quiz. :( Ya like that.
"so all cha have to do is get one gift for your person. And it got ta be a gift from da heart." Gin stated. He nodded to himself and put his hands in his sleeves. Most everyone in the room groaned except for Uluquiorra.
After Gin said his last sentience Ulquiorra looked down at his chest. He placed one of his hands over his hollow hole then looked up in confusion. "but how can we give a gift from the heart if we do not have one?" he asked.
Gin stood strait. He was stumped. He kinda forgot about that. So he decided to just pull a corny idea out of his butt," it's the thought that counts". Trying to seam as wise as possible. But most everyone one saw through it. ( but not Tousen hahaha).
Sayzel raised his hand. "so when you mean a gift from the heart you mean..."
"NO YOU ARE NOT F-ING GETTING SOMEONE A REAL HEART!" Grimmjow shouted, he still didn't forgive Sayzel about Halloween. No one really did.
Gin nodded " yes please do not take da term too literal, get them somethin, well just please don't go to literal."he then clasped his hands together " well Christmas is in four days! Get to work!" he stated then shunpoed away. Probably to get his person a gift.
"we...are...f-ked" Grimmjow stated. Everyone nodded in agreement.

Azein and Tousen decided to go to the human world go get their people there gifts. They where currently waking brought a store called Walmart which they at first thought was a wall store. That was not the case.
This store seamed too full to them, people where constantly walked by pushing carts while looking down at lists. Even Tousen who was blind was surprised at the fact that none of them slammed into anything.
Azein pointed at something "should we get Zommari that?"
"I can't see what your pointing to"
"sorry"
They continued walking.
They started walking through the clothing section. There was complete silence. Thorough the corner of Azein's eye something popped out. He turned towards it and walked forward. He read what was written on it and smiled. "we are getting Zommori this," Azein stated.
"ok...what is it" Tousen asked.
" it's a T-shirt that says The Flash."
"that's works".
Azein grabbed it and they walked off.
They walked around the store for about half an hour when Azein finally decided to walk down an isle that said PETS. He had been trying to avoid this isle but after searching the entire store and finding nothing, he was going to risk it.
He first thing that caught his eyes was the big blue tanks near he back. He walked over and looked at the different assortments of fish.
"we are getting her a fish" Azein said aloud.
"whatever" Tousen replied.
They got what they needed and Headed off back to huco Mundo.

Uluquiorra had no idea what so ever to get Grimmjow. he sat in his room for three hours with his hand on his chin wondering what he could get the trash. Actually he really didn't know why he was even going along with it. Probably because Azein ordered them to.
Eventually Uluquiorra gave up and decided to do something he didn't really want to do. He went to Gin for advice.
He walked into Gins gift shop for hollows and whatever sneaks into huco Mundo. (long story). Gin stood behind he counter with a smile on his face " so what da cha need taday?" he asked.
Uluquiorra's face was emotionless "I need to know what to get for the trash Grimmjow. One of Gin's eyes opened slightly and his simile turned to a smirk "ohhh?" he asked. "well I don't really know what cha should get fo him. Maybe" Gin walked from around the counter to some shelves in his store. He picked something off of the shelf and gave it to Uluquiorra. "will he like this trash?" Uluquiorra asked.
"I'm pretty sure," Gin replied.
"how much is it"
"two souls"
"fine" Uluquiorra replied. He payed Gin and left. Uluquiorra looked down at what he had got for Grimmjow. Hopefully Azein wouldn't scold him for this. He sighed ( which was a VERY rare occurrence ) and headed to his room.

"Stark wake up!" Lillyenette yelled. She was bouncing on his stomach. Stark lazingly opened one of his eyes. "what do you need?" he groaned. He was to tired to deal with Lilly's antics. "you need to go get your person a present!" she shouted.
Stark sighed, so that's what this was about?" I already got Azein something," he stated. Lillyenette stopped jumping. "oh... What did you get him?" she asked.
"tea"
"figures"
And with that Stark went back to sleep.

There where cuse words streaming out of Nnitora's mouth but let's just say they got Americanized and translated into something more friendly. For example " why the -fire is cool- did I get that -normal- upped -person. How in the -strawberry fields- of -heaven- did I ever deserve this -stuff."
Ya that's what happens in america. They try to block us from the truth. It just takes away the feel for the character you know?
Anyway Nnitora was pissed. Ya he new what to get his person, all he was gong to do was gift wrap some random hollow in huco Mundo. That should make the f-er happy.
But who in the hell wants to get a damn gift for Aaroniero, he bastered didn't even deserve to be an Espada. Nnitora grumbled cuse words under his breath as he made his way towards the menos forest. 'At least the guy was easy to get a gift for,' Nnitora thought as he dragged his feat along the sand.

Tia Herribel decided the best place to get Gins gist would be the real world. So she had Sayzel make her a Gigi so she could get what she needed. She had an idea on what she was going to give him. All she needed was to find the right store. She walked around Karakura town for over an hour until she finally found the store she was looking for.
From just looking at the decor she could tell this was the right place. She sighed and walked into a store she didn't really want to enter under any other circumstances. But this was going to be the best place to get Gin's gift.
She looked around the store at all of the shelves. God Gin would be like a fat kid in a candy store here. There where practical jokes and fake stuff on every shelf. Yep Tia was in a joke shop.
Luckily for her it only took a second for her to find what she needed. It was perfect for Gin. She quickly grabbed it and bought it. Then she was quickly out of that store and back home in Las Noches.
—
Aaroniero hummed as he was forging Baraggon's gift. Because Baraggon was king of Huco Mundo Aaroniero decided to make him a crown all by himself.
When Aaroniero put the finishing touches on his producer he put it up to the light and smiled. The jewels that he embedded into the gold glistened.
Aaroniero hugged the gift and went to wrap it. Gin always did come up with good ideas.

Yammy got Stark a pillow...
...
...
..zzzzzzz...
...zzz...
...
...
End of Yammy's shopping.
—
Baraggon was to important to leave Las Noches, so he had one of his fraccion go get the present.
They ended up returning with fancy goggles. Baragon grunted. "that will work" he stated. Then he went back to his 'kingly duties' Even though he wasn't really king anymore.
—
"What to get him what to get him..." Sayzel said while tapping his chin in his lab. They had said to not take Christmas too literal. That meant no fun for poor Sayzel. Well ever since the Halloween incident no one really trusted him with holidays. They wouldn't even let him help cook on Thanksgiving.
An idea popped into Sayzels head and he shot his finger in the air. " I know I will make him a fancy new eyepatch!" he then turned to his table " well lets get to work."
—
*hint I cheat, I have no idea how to write Zommari what's so ever- he is the least detailed and I really don't give a care about him.*
Me- what did you get Yammy?
Zommori- got Yammy food
Me- ok
Zommari-...
...
...
...
...
Me-NEXT!

Grimmjow went strait to Gin in Gins store. Gin stood smiling behind the counter. " oh f-k" Grimmjow whispered under his breath. He didn't really like talking to Gin to much. Grimmjow ran his fingers through his blue hair.
"well well what do cha need Grimmy-Kun?" Gin asked with his sinister smiled.
" do no call me that" Grimmjow growled.
"so what do ya need"
"a gift for emo bastered."
"well, I think you came the the right place," Gin replied. He walked from behind the counter. He scanned a couple of shelves before stoping in front of one. He hand his finger on his chin in thought " hmmmmm" he was saying while looking at the items. " maybe this,... Oh no never mind" Gin walked to another shelf. His unopened eyes stopped on an item and his grin enlarged. " oooohhh get him this!" Gin said.
Grimmjow looked at what was in Gins hands " fine" he said then snatched the item. " how much is it?" he asked.
"only three souls!" Gin said.
Grimmjows eyes widened " isn't that cheep?"
"we are having a Christmas sale"
" oh"
And with that Grimmjow paid and left. When he left he was almost around the corner when he herd foots steps going towards Gins shop. Quickly Grimmjow jumped behind the wall. He watched as Uluquiorra entered Gin's store. He started laughing evilly and Sonodoed off.

It was Christmas day and everyone was sitting around a tree with there presents around it.
Gin had a huge grin on his face " ok Azein and Tousen you are first give your gifts. Azein passed Herribels gift ( since it was fragile) and Tousen gave Zommori his. Zommori opened his gift and his eyes widened. He pulled out the shirt and showed it to everyone." thank you" he said.
Next Tia opened her gift. She was careful because Azein had told her to be. Azein could have sworn he saw her smile when he opened her gift.
Next Uluquiorra passed Grimmjow his gift. Grimmjow had a weird look on his face when Uluquiorra passed him the gift. He quickly tore the paper to bits. His jow was agape when he saw what he had received. His surprised face instantly turned into a devilish smile," f-k ya!" he shouted and started shooting his brand new Nerf gun.
Stark then handed Azein his gift. Azein swiftly unwrapped it and smiled " thank you Stark" he said.
Nnitora was reluctant to give Aaroniero his gift, but he did anyway. Aaroniero unwrapped a little box. His eyebrow rose ( he was in Kein form). " what is it?" he asked. " it's a box that hold hollows, there is about ten in there for ya" he said. Aaroniero's eyes widened "really?" he asked then smiled.
Tia then quickly passed Gin his gift. It ended up being an assortment box of practical jokes. Everyone in the room groaned and glared at Tia. She just shrugged her shoulders "it's Christmas shut up" She said quite annoyed. Everyone shut up.
Then Aaroniero passed Barragon his gift he had a large smile on his face and he was quietly humming with excitement. Baraggon opened the box and his eyes widened. He was speechless he looked up " thank you" he barely got out. Aaroniero smiled.
Yammy then got up and passed Stark his present. Because of course it was from Yammy there was no wrapping but of course stark didn't care. He smiled, took the pillow and fell asleep only to be woken up by Lillyonette who smacked his head.
Barragon next handed Tousen his gift " here" he said. Tousen took it and with the help of Azein unwrapped it. He's hands scanned he surface " goggles?" he asked. " yep" someone said. Tousen smiled. " I have been wanting a new pair of these the said.
Next Sayzel passed Nnitora his gift. Nnitora sat there debating on weather or not he was going to risk opening it. "it's fine open it" Sayzel said. Reluctantly Nnitora opened it. He looked inside " oh" he said. Sayzels face got angry " what do you mean oh?" he asked. " i though it was going to blow up" " oh"
Next Zommori passed Yammy his gift which turned out to be ten pounds of meat. Yammy was happy.
Grimmjow then stood up and handed Uluquiorra his gift. "here" he said. Uluquiorra's eyes widened. He didn't expect Grimmjow to be his secret Santa. He opened his gift. It was a number four and a bat on a chain. It was a necklace but a manly one. The number four was a dark green similar to his eyes. He felt a bubblyness in his stomach. Was this happiness? He thought.
Next Gin gave Sayzel his gift it turned out to be a chemistry set. Everyone sighed.
After the gift giving was done everyone just conversed around a fireplace that Gin made appear from thin air. They all had a Merry Christmas. And they all enjoyed their gifts.
