Hello, thanks for reading my story, it's a big help being able to write something you know people probably enjoy when you suffering from your third bout of fresher's flu in the past 4 weeks. (I hate freshers and I hate flu!) Hands up if you started reading Juushin Enbu and are a bit pissed off that only three chapters have been scanlated Puts hand up...

Chapter 4: The Treacherous Traitors Traitorous Tactics.

"Hisagi-san, what are you doing on the floor? Having a nice nap?"

"Hisagi-sempai, I can't believe you just lost to a fifth seat, I'm going to make sure that haunts you for the rest of your days."

The exhausted shinigami lay on the roof completely flabbergasted, looking at the two smiling above him and kneeling by his side, at one in particular.

"Kita Hiroko...That can't be you." His words split by his laboured panting.

"It's really me, Hisagi-sempai," She poked him in the forehead and smiled even more. "I'm back for good."

"But you...disappeared, you murdered, you...betrayed-" She sighed and stopped his speech by flicking him on the forehead.(1)

"I'm innocent, I was the one betrayed Hisagi-sempai, I was betrayed by..." She stopped, unable to say his name. Shuuhei was didn't reply, unsure whether to trust the woman. Masaru seeing the shinigami's doubt, decided to step in.

"It's all true Hisagi-san, she can even prove it to everyone in Seireitei. She was speaking the truth when she said she was back." The element of worry on Hisagi's face was replaced by happiness upon his friend's words.

"Don't worry, Hisagi-sempai, you'll find out the truth soon enough." She grinned despite the seriousness of her previous statement. "And now that I'm back you'll never be able to get rid of me."

"I guess it's a welcome home then Kita-chan." Suddenly there was a huge rise in spiritual pressure that stopped the three shinigami in their tracks; it was like they had been engulfed into water and were being denied the very act of breathing. "That spiritual pressure...Commander Yamamoto?"

Hiroko and Masaru both grabbed Shuuhei and retreated quickly.

...

"How could the captain betray us?" The shock and pain on Shuuhei's face was heart-rending to see. They stood in the 4th division section getting treatment for Hisagi when Isane's voice had echoed throughout Seireitei to all those she had chosen.

"Hisagi, where are they?" As Hiroko had not yet met division four, she could not hear, but knew exactly who had been revealed as traitors.

"Kita-chan, you-"

"Tell me!"

"They're at the Execution site...Kita-chan don't-"

"Masaru-san, you coming with me?" He nodded seriously and Hiroko ran off. He gave Shuuhei a reassuring look before taking after her.

"That's the wrong way Ko-chan."

...

"Ah, hello, Hiroko-chan, Masaru-kun," Aizen's face looked down on her and she gritted her teeth in anger. All three rogue captains had been ensnared by the trees of Masaru's zanpakto, a predicament that seemed to faze none of them. They had managed to stop Aizen from grabbing the stricken Rukia, who seemed unable to move an inch. Hiroko knelt beside a mortally (2) injured Ichigo and grimaced at the deep chasm in his middle, "Yet more flies to squash."

"You three shall atone for your crimes!" Masaru shouted irately, "What you have done can never be forgiven."

"Calm down, Masaru-kun," Aizen's disgusting smile was still plastered on his face, "You're showing your weaknesses." Hiroko noticed Ichigo try to move, she couldn't believe he was still conscious.

"Don't move Ichigo-kun, you'll just destroy your body." She put a reassuring hand on his head, "Others will be here soon, don't worry."

"Run away, Hiroko-chan," He gasped and tried to move more, "There's no way..."

"How pitiful, you're still conscious boy." Aizen calmly spoke his painful words, "You must really stop that recklessness. Right now, the only thing keeping your body together is your spine. No matter how hard you try, if you stand up, you'll destroy your body."

"He's right Ichigo-kun, stay where you are." She faced the traitor shinigami, "So your treacherous deceit has been discovered, Aizen, Gin, Tousen. What do you plan to do about it?"

"Ah, Hiroko-chan, I thought we deserved a little more respect than that!"

"You never deserved anyone's respect, Aizen."

"So, what are you going to do, Hiroko-chan, Masaru-kun, you should know you never have a chance of beating three captains. What are you doing to do, stall us? Oh, how brave and noble, sacrificing yourselves for sereitei, pitiful fools! What makes you so sure you could even stall one of us for a fraction of a second?" Masaru's trees disappeared and his body sprayed blood across the ground. He collapsed, gasping for air and clutching his front.

"Masaru-san?!" Hiroko shouted desperately at her fallen friend. Aizen stood next to him, only to disappear a second later.

"Good, Hiroko-chan, you really are like your father." She had her hand on a large gouge in her shoulder which poured out copious amounts of blood. "That blow was meant to take off your head; you really could have been an asset to my cause with your talent." He grabbed her throat and crushed it as he pulled her up, throwing her afterward. "Keep an eye on your old subordinate for me, Tousen." Tousen grabbed her and held her hair, drawing his zanpakto and holding it to her neck.

"Why, Tousen?!" Her voice was grasping and breathes laboured. Tears fell down her cheeks uncontrollably. He didn't reply.

"Com'on, Rukia-chan." He pulled her up, but she couldn't stand, "Ah, I see. You can't stand because of my spiritual pressure." Hiroko saw Ichigo wriggle on the ground again, trying to move. Aizen decided it was time to taunt the orange-headed shinigami. "You trying to be reckless again, shinigami. Look on the bright side; you've been very helpful to me so far. Just stay still and pass away peacefully. Your mission is over."

"Mission?" The young boy could hardly speak, "What...Mission?"

"Yes, all along I knew you would come. I knew the point of entry. I knew you would land in western Rukongai. Therefore, I dispatched regular patrols in the vicinity, so the Seireitei walls would be lowered before you arrived. I sent the 3rd and 9th division to the inside of the wall and sent Gin to keep you out. This made the only other way in through Shiba Kuukaku's canon. This would involve a dramatic entrance of the invaders who survived against a captain. This caused to draw all eyes on you; it didn't even seem to matter when a captain was murdered. It was...Really easy to make our moves. (3)"

"Wait...wa-wait. How did you know we would come into Western Rukongai?"

"That is an odd question. Isn't there any other reason other than the fact that Urahara's referential location was in Western Rukongai. So the only place his gate could take you was there?"

"What?!"

"What's the matter?" Aizen smirked, "Weren't you his subordinate? Didn't you come back to get Rukia because he ordered you to?"

"So you don't know anything about it?" Aizen's smirk became even more sickening, "Then since it's all over, then I'll tell you all about it."

... (4)

"Nii-sama?!" Byakura stood in the way of Gin's blade, stopping it from hitting the shinigami he was holding by letting it pierce his own skin. "Why did you save me?! Why? Nii-sama?" Aizen stalked up upon the two preparing to draw his sword, Rukia looked petrified. However, before he could do anything more two figures had captured him with their swords.

"What a nostalgic face..." Soi Fon and Yoruichi had him under their grasp.

"Don't move a muscle, if you, you'll lose your head."

"Very well..." The situation had not fazed him at all. It looked like he needn't be when three gate guardians crashed onto the scene. "What will you do? Even you two can't come after me while fighting all of them at the same time." Luckily for the two shinigami, Jidanbou crashed onto the scene to aide them, with Kuukaku at his side.

"Kuukaku!" Yoruichi seemed very happy at her unexpected arrival.

"Yo, Yoruichi! I got bored so decided to come here after a walk." Hiroko had never been so pleased to see the Shiba's trademark smirk. "So then, let's do it Jidanbou."

"Yes, Ma'am." Jidanbou blasted the three guardians with his immense strength. Gin looked like he wanted to stop Jidanbou's display with the poor man's death, before he was stopped by the hand of a blonde woman.

"Don't move please," She held her zanpakto to his neck and held his hand tight.

"Sorry Aizen, she caught me." Gin carelessly stated.

"What did you say?"

"Don't you see Aizen?" Yoruichi decided to state the obvious, "You have been completely surrounded." Seconds later shinigami had flooded the area, holding the three traitors hostage. Hiroko heard a voice behind the traitor holding her.

"Let go of her...Or I'll cut your throat." Although the thought of Shuuhei threatening her, and now his, former captain unnerved her, she felt more than overjoyed to hear his voice. She felt the hold on her hair loosen and she felt to the ground, the zanpakto held at her neck was removed and put back into its sheath. Again, in what looked like a dire situation for Aizen, it had him smiling like he had become a god.

"What's so funny Aizen?" Yoruichi enquired,

"It is time..." Was all he said in reply, Yoruichi's eyes opened wide with fear and she shouted across to Soi Fong. Moments later, a beam of light encased Aizen, barely missed the two who had held him captive.

"Impossible?!" Cried somebody that Hiroko could not see. A crack appeared in the sky and a giant hand came with it, hollow were breaking into seireitei!!

"Gillian?! Just how many are there?" Hiroko heard to her right. "Wait there seems to be something else." Hiroko looked up to see something other than Gillian residing in that black void. She saw two more beams of light dropped down suddenly. A hand grabbed her and pulled away from Tousen, landing a few metres away from the beam of light that nearly entrapped her. She saw the other light had swallowed up Gin. The man that had grabbed her didn't let go, his hand was wrapped around her waist tightly. She looked up at Shuuhei and smiled in appreciation, he meet her gaze with a similar expression. Together they faced the dire scene with saddened expressions as the three traitors made their escape out of seireitei.

Uber Notes of Wisdom:

(1) I Find this is a very good way of getting people to shut up.

(2) I stupidly put morally injured before I managed to change it. I don't think Aizen could ever morally injure someone if it were possible, he seems to be bankrupt in this area.

(3) He does like to talk a lot doesn't he...

(4) Skipping to the end of the speech, I can't be arsed to write down everything about hollowfication and the hougyoku, and Rukia's extraction...thing. Gonna skip to the bit when the cavalry arrives. Aizen talks waaaaay too much for my liking.
