A/n Yay this is getting updated quick! I just have so many ideas for this story! I hope for the cult of the evil water god Cepherious to make an appearance sometime in this story, if you've read Inuyoshie's Bleached Armageddon then you know what I'm talking about and probably are giggling quietly to yourself.
Also, as of this chapter all of the characters involved in the pairs will have made their appearances. I'm gonna have several show up just to confuse the crap out of those of you who are trying desperately to figure out the pairs. (Heck, two of them are frickin' obvious.)
I also have no idea how to write Gin's accent. I'll try my best, but if you have a better way please tell me.
Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach, for if I did, Gin Ichimaru would still be alive.

Akane
"Eh? Kikane?" Starrk asked, "Human, loud, blond, flat, sort of bitchy?"
"So you've seen her?" Akane asked eagerly.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah, yeah. She was following Sexta around like a puppy. A loud, annoying puppy."
So she was already in Las Noches. Akane sighed of relief. "Which way did they go?"
He pointed in the opposite direction of which she came. "That way, I think."
She nodded and grabbed Tsukiyo's wrist, tugging her along with her on the hunt for Kikane.
Suddenly, Akane heard a delighted screech and got tackled by Kikane.
She laughed. "Kika! You're alright!"
She was abruptly somber. A short awkward silent ensued. She was about to open her mouth to speak when another voice cut through deafening lack of noise.
"Who're ya guys?"
Tsukiyo
She looked up to see the owner of the voice. It belonged to a man; he was tall, compared to her. What freaked her out most though were his squinty eyes. The sly smile didn't bother her much, despite popular belief.
But what she really noticed was his hair. It wasn't quite as white as hers was; rather, it had a lilac tint to it.
"Oh, now I remember, Sosuke-sama said sometin' 'bout ya," Ichimaru drawled. "So, what're yer names?"
Kikane grinned mischievously. "Yumekanou Kikane. Otaku."
Tsukiyo gave a timid smile. "Muteki Tsukiyo. Um . . . I would say I'm a bookworm," she said, doing her best to follow Kika's example. Of course, even though they knew who he was, he didn't know who they were. Even if he had, it was common courtesy to introduce one's self upon first meeting.
Akane stood tall with ever-straight confident posture, smiling haughtily, "Nazo Akane," she said simply.
Truthfully, Akane had pride, and a mild superiority-complex, along with a hint of narcissism.
Definitely, she and Aizen weren't going to get along very well, if at all.
. . . . . . . . .
Aizen
He'd seen it.
The pride in that girl's eyes, it shined, possibly brighter than his own. Yet, the girl did not believe herself to be god, nor wish to be. She simply believed that she was better than most. It was a subtle sort of pride, and only the most attuned could sense it.
And her Reiatsu, now that was something to be proud of. It may not have come anywhere close to his, but her spiritual pressure rivaled that of Tousen. The girl had potential; he could say that for certain. With the proper training, she might actually surpass Gin in skill and raw power.
But he couldn't stop obsessing over her eyes. The determination in them glittered as bright as the pride. He almost wanted to crush it; not the pride, such a thing was too rare to destroy, but the determination.
He tried to write the feeling off as morbid curiosity, but something told him that it was more than that, even if he didn't want to accept it.
He smiled to himself. This Akane was indeed something new.
Entering his throne room, he wondered how Gin was doing on his task of fetching the two, now three, girls.
No sooner than the moment he sat down did the group enter. Akane and the one called Kikane were discussing something called a lemon. Tsukiyo would pipe in randomly with a comment of some sort. Some of the words made no sense to him, but he after caught words like 'seme,' 'bondage,' and 'threesome,' he decided he really didn't want to know.
"You did bring the binder, right, Kika?" Akane chimed.
"Of course I did. I never leave without the lemon binder." She said.
Tsukiyo gasped, "Ooo, can I borrow some Hitsu x Ruki and some Ulqui x Hime?"
"Yeah, Kika, and give me all the Ai – um . . . you-know-who x OC or Hina. Maybe some Yoai pairings, too. Just anything with said male," Akane commanded.
Aizen blinked as he realized what she'd just said.
"Sure, sure. I know what I'm reading later, though." Kikane said, grinning creepily.
He found himself slightly disturbed by this whole situation, yet, he wasn't one hundred percent sure that was what they were talking about, so he just let it go.
Deciding to change the subject – fast - he asked, "So, you were going to explain how you know so much about us."
All three turned and stared at him, as if they only just realized that he was there. Tsukiyo and Kikane gazed at Akane expectantly.
Akane sighed and took a deep breath. "Where we come from you are all in an Anime/Manga series called Bleach. The main character is Ichigo Kurosaki, and in the end you get PWNED pathetically by Urahara Kisuke," she paused, "Gin dies. By your hand."
At this, Gin raised an eyebrow.
"I must have had some provocation?" Aizen asked.
"I'm not telling you that. It would be a breach of trust. Any other questions?"
"How can you expect me to believe you?"
"I know everything about you," Akane said.
He smiled kindly. They could be spies for the Soul Society. "So, what do you know?"
Akane assumed a blank face, "Your well above all captain-level Shinigami, except the Captain-commander, who you said yourself is much stronger. Your Zanpakuto is Kyoka Suigetsu, it is activated by the command 'shatter'. Its Shikai ability is Kanzen Saimin, or Complete Hypnosis. It controls the five senses to the point that it can make the target misinterpret another person's form, shape, mass, feel, and smell to be that of the enemy. The initiation condition for the hypnosis . . ."
As the girl continued on and on about his Zanpakuto, Aizen started to get a little skeptical. Some of the things she was saying had not been revealed to the Soul Society, yet.
"The hypnosis is apparently long-lasting, seeing as the Visoreds are still affected by Kyoka Suigetsu even though they were hypnotized at least one hundred ten years ago . . ."
She even knew about the Visoreds. Nobody knew about the Visoreds. And if they did in the Soul Society, nobody knew they called themselves Visoreds. This . . . was becoming an enigma.
". . . may be able to note slight differences in the illusions compared to the real thing, even if they are not able to determine what, precisely, is different. Gin Ichimaru overheard Aizen describe the only way to avoid "Kyoka Suigetsu" is by touching the blade before the illusions are activated," Akane paused.
"You do know much about my Zanpakuto, but that proves little. What about me personally?" Aizen said, curious about what the girl would answer with.
"During your time as a Shinigami, you public image was that of a bespectacled intellectual whose humility and warmth was equaled only by your dedication to the Gotei 13. However, it eventually became apparent that this was a carefully-crafted façade designed to hide your true, sinister nature.
"While you appear to treat your subordinates with kindness and compassion, you view them only as little more than pawns in reality. You view morality and empathy as weaknesses, which must be expunged in order to reach one's full potential. You think nothing of manipulating or killing those around you in order to achieve your goals," for a moment, the blank look on her face disappeared. "I'm going to skip what hasn't happened yet, because Kikane hasn't read that far and I don't want to spoil it," she said.
"By all means, continue. I am rather enjoying this," he encouraged.
Akane nodded and the blank look returned. "During your ascent to Hueco Mundo, you remove your glasses and sweep a hand through your hair to reveal menacing eyes and a very different," she paused, "awesome hairstyle."
She seemed to have added 'awesome' herself. It really did seem like she was reciting something directly. This certainly wasn't her own words.
She continued, "As you had previously revealed to Toshiro Hitsugaya that the Aizen they all knew never existed, this would be a visual representation of that claim. Before leaving, you tell Jushiro Ukitake that no one started out in heaven, not even the gods. Then you say that you will be the one to stand in the heavens and end the unbearable vacancy on the world's throne," she stopped there. The way she ended it, abruptly, made it seem like there was more she could say.
"The rest is irrelevant." She stated.
Tsukiyo screeched in happiness, running over to hug Akane. "Oh my God, Aka, you just perfectly recited the Sosuke Aizen Wikipedia page!"
"Well duh! I love all the antagonists. Except some Espada."
"So basically, in this Anime I'm the bad guy?"
"Yes."
"And you love bad guys," It wasn't a question. It was a statement.
Akane had no answer. She simply blushed, embarrassed.
Aizen smiled inwardly. This girl was something else. There was no way he could not believe her now, not after that extensive report.
. . . . . . . . ..
*****SuperYuuki's After The Chaper Special*****
Yes, Akane has a superiority complex. Yes, she's a bit narcissistic. Yes, she tends to walk around like she owns the place.
Eek. I've created a monster. But she's my most complex character. For the Aizen x Akane (It's frickin' obvious!) stuff that's going to appear sooner or later, I needed a character I was familiar with, or else I wouldn't be able to make it . . . as . . . complicated as it is going to be. I also learned what her name means! Akane = Deep red, and Nazo means either puzzle or Enigma (My favorite word EVER. I like this word more than antidisestablishmentarianism. Spell check was unneeded to spell that just now.)
And I do realize I plagiarized Wikipedia here. Oopsies. No flames, please, Akane memorized it! If you skipped the recitation, that's fine, just make sure you read the comments in-between. I skipped some of the description of Aizen's Zanpakuto, because it just went on forever and I didn't want to lost your attention.
Also, I realize this sort of ends awkwardly, but I think it works. I just wanted to get the chapter up. It's already pretty long and people are waiting.
I'm currently looking for a beta (Jayshock, before you ask, the answer is no. Ask me at school why.). If you're interested in beta-ing this, PM me!
Please peoples, read Bleached Armageddon by Inuyoshie. Rated M for language and lemons starting around chapter 80. (Total of five lemons, three semi-normal ones, one Yoai, and one really kinky one toward the very end of the story. Easy to skip over if you're not into that stuff (I skipped the Yoai). Please read it! I'd feel bad about writing this if you didn't because this was inspired by it. BTW, there is about 146 chapters.)
