Summary: The uber pop rock princesses of SugaR KingdoM Ichigo and Hime, are coming to town but front row tickets and backstage passes aren't nearly enough for proud fanatics Gli and Rukia, the duo take their obsession one step further.

Kidnapping is a very bad thing. But it's kind of cute when fan girls are the ones behind the act.

Down down down several corridors.

Down down down several flights of stairs.

At last they reached the basement level but Kenpa had not let go of the strawberry which was just fine since-

Ichigo felt warm and safe in Kenpa's arms. The woman smelled like firewood and something the orangette couldn't quite put her finger on but it was nice.

She wondered how the woman had found her and decided to voice this question out loud. "How did you know I would be here? And for that matter how did you manage to get here so fast?"

"I made a vow," the woman replied in a soft voice that was so very unlike her. "I made a vow that I would protect you, always."

Ichigo felt a little confused. "But Kenpa you've only know me for a few years I don't-

"I lost my daughter when I was 16."

"I'm so sorry."

"Don't be. Yachiru was my little spitfire, spunky, fierce and fearless. Grinning from ear to ear even as the poison made its way into her small body," Kenpa let out a humor-less laugh "Imagine dying from candy of all things."

"That's terrible."

"Things happen. People live and die and eventually they reach the stage of reincarnation."

Ichigo lifted her head away from the woman's chest so she could look up at her "You believe your daughter was reincarnated?"

Kenpa smiled softly (which also seemed quite out of character) "I do."

Ichigo was suddenly looking at her body guard/stylist in a whole new light. It wasn't a bad thing just different. She could finally see that underneath the woman's rough exterior there was a gentle soul.

She felt like she now understood Kenpa as a person.

Still from the sounds of things the woman seemed to have-

"Are you saying that you think your daughter's spirit lives on in me?"

There was a moment of silence and Kenpa burst out laughing. She set the strawberry on her feet and then tilted the teen's chin upward, studying her face.

The orangette frowned "I don't see what's so funny about-

A large hand smacked Ichigo's ass just then-

"Why did you j-mph!"

'Kenpa is kissing me. I never knew she might have these kinds of feelings for me. How come she never said anything I might have-I mean I'm not picky or anything-not that she's not attractive in a biker-mama sort of way but still-

Hands caressed her face and Ichigo was a bit surprised by how soft Kenpa's touch was. The woman was handling her as though she were a precious china doll.

And then she had to ruin it by kneading Ichigo's sensitive bottom with her strong fingers.

'Maybe I should've been born a man or something-because every time I'm with someone they seem to have some sort of obsession with my ass.'

Gli was growling. Hissing and growling at what exactly?

Rukia did not know but once again her blue haired friend was acting rather strange.

"Gli what's wrong?"

Gli turned towards Rukia, her electric blue eyes narrowing at the raven-haired girl and then she hissed.

Rukia found herself both amused and confused.

She decided that maybe if she turned the radio back on Gli would return to her normal self.

It was worth a shot.

And I looked up at the moon

Knowing that I would see those golden eyes

It was too fast, too soon

Words spilling from your lips nothing but lies

Say goodbye to this princess

She's never looking back, never looking back

Say goodbye to this princess

She's burning you off like an old unwanted tat

"You know I really don't like that line I mean what do they have against tattoos any way?"

Good Gli was back to normal.

"What was that all about?"

"What the hell are you talking about Rukia?"

"Just now a few minutes ago you were acting-

"Oh that," A snort. "It's nothing. Just some one making a move on my strawberry but it's not gonna go any further than a quick make out session."

"Um thank you for saving me even though I still don't know how-

"Take off your stockings!"

"What?"

Why was Kenpa suddenly snapping commands at her as though she were some type of drill sergeant? And her stockings of all things?-it was true that it was a summer night but Ichigo had no desire to take off her stockings. What on earth had come over the wild haired woman?

'This is what I deserve for letting her kiss and grope me I guess. I should've stopped her right away but I didn't want to offend her and-

Kenpa couldn't stand to see that sudden flash of fear come over Ichigo's face.

It was horrible. It was wrong.

The strawberry should never-

She grabbed the girl crushing her with a hug, patting her long hair and speaking in a soft tone once more "Listen to me Ichigo. You have no reason to be afraid of me. I would never take advantage of some one as adorably naïve as you."

The orangette scowled "I'm not naïve!"

Kenpachi laughed. "Yes you are. Now take off your stockings I want to show you something."

Gli was driving as if the hellhounds or Hades himself were after them-practically speed racing through heavy traffic and red lights not stopping even as the distant sound of a siren could be heard.

It was reckless and stupid but she did not care.

Reaching for her cigarette and lighter with one hand while she drove her car with the other.

Telling Rukia to take the wheel for a few minutes so she could properly light her cigarette with out burning herself or the brand new leather halter-top she had purchased.

Ah nicotine there was nothing like it-nothing could top the taste on her tongue except for maybe her sweet strawberry-ah Ichigo would taste better than Gli could ever even dream up although it certainly didn't stop her from doing so-

Stranded on a desert island with only the ocean friends and her sexy strawberry. They would build a hut from the ground up, using the nature surrounding them-Gli would make a hammock for her Ichigo. The orangette would lie beneath the palm trees and sing while Gli climbed said tree and picked coconuts.

At night they would build a fire and Ichigo would sing for her while Gli bathed the orangette's body with her tongue. Delighting in the sounds her pop rock princess would make as she reached the chorus in the song-at the exact moment when she climaxed.

Ichigo would taste sweeter than her namesake Gli was sure of it.

Rukia raised a brow at the way her blue haired companion was suddenly shifting in her seat-if she didn't know any better she'd say-

"Gli um don't you think you should keep your eyes on the road?"

Gli briefly registered the raven-haired girl's words as she unbuckled her seat belt and-

"Gli! At least let me pull over before you-

"Shut up Rukia and just let me-

"No! I mean if you're going to do that go in the back seat-

Gli angrily pulled her hand out of her skirt and snorted at the other girl "What the hell is your problem? 9 times out of ten you'd practically be begging me to let you lick it-

"That's different. We're in the fucking car and you're supposed to be driving-its bad enough you were have a fucking spasm or whatever earlier-now you're gonna risk both our lives just so you can get your rocks off or whatever."

Gli glared at the raven-haired girl. "What the fuck crawled up your crotch and died?"

Rukia was out raged!

"How dare you-who the fuck-if you think you can continue talking to me as though I'm one of those bimbos on the sunshine squad you've g-she trailed off the blue haired girl was no longer listening to her anyway.

'Why have I let her treat me this way for so long? I damn sure am not a human doormat and yet-

Rukia shook her head.

'What am I getting so upset about? Gli didn't do anything wrong, she's just being Gli. I was really worried earlier but then she assured me that everything was fine, she's been acting strange pretty much all day but it's probably her spirit animal's energy influencing her behavior or something-it has nothing to do with me. Although I still don't completely understand what it is she is seeing or feeling-it's weird well not weird exactly but-

"I can't read your mind Rukia. What's wrong?"

'I just don't understand. This day started out so perfectly and then it turned into-wait is she talking to me?"

"What?"

"Oh don't even try to use the cold bitch tone on me Rukia, it really doesn't suit you."

Rukia softened her tone a little "What do you want Gli?"

"Hey is that anyway to treat your best friend?" The blue haired girl held her cigarette between index and middle finger as she fiddled with the radio. "I'm genuinely concerned about you-you seem stressed which is totally unlike you. So why don't you just-

"I don't want to do anything."

"Really?" Gli's tone was playful now "You don't even want to think about your favorite princess and how she won't be able to keep her perfectly manicured hands off you once she gets a look at your permanent body art?"

Rukia felt a small smile threaten to break on her face but stamped it down.

'Who am I kidding? Hime probably has a girlfriend-or boyfriend or several and even if she doesn't she'd never take interest in someone so short with a small chest-I swear I barely fill out a B-cup. And even if she didn't mind the fact that I'm this shrimp with omelet tits we'd probably have nothing in common. Of course I was gonna fuckin go and kidnap her, it would be my only chance to possibly even get her to look at me.

And when I do (because of course I'm still going to do it) she'll probably cry the whole time, pleading for some one to come save her-probably that shameless stylist of hers-I swear I've never hated anyone as much as I hate that woman-well I don't hate her but I don't like her either-I see the way she looks at my Hime-sure she claimed she was just touching up my princesses makeup-but it's complete bullshit since my Hime doesn't even need make up-she doesn't even need clothes-sweet heavens above I can't wait to see her-

Hogyoku Records was a large building-no make that HUGE. There were so many floors that the group hadn't even known where to start looking for their long lost strawberry.

Then Abarai-chan came up with the idea that they should split up and that way they'd be able to cover more ground.

Which was a fine idea but as it was

"Rangiku-san I really don't think we're going to find Kurosaki-chan in here."

The ginger blonde had dragged Orihime into a closet of all things. Quickly untying her light pink sash from around her waist and binding the princess' hands together.

Naturally the auburn haired girl was quite confused.

"Why did you tie my hands together Rangiku-san? Are we about to perform some sort of ritualistic chanting that requires prayer, poor lighting and binding?"

It seemed like a reasonable enough question until she saw the way the woman's powder blue's danced with something not quite defined as lust but somewhere close to it-

Much like earlier, the older woman rested her head on the princesses' shoulder. Looking up into the younger girl's eyes with her own powder blues "Tell me Orihime-chan what do you think of me?"

"I think Rangiku-san is a good person."

A whimsical laugh, "I'm not referring to my personality Orihime-chan. I'm asking you if you would ever consider being with an ole' cougar like myself."

"Rangiku-san isn't a cougar. Rangiku-san is-(how can I explain it with out coming off like a pervert?) "I only hope that I can look as pretty as Rangiku-san when I get older," a delicate snort "Of course with the way I eat, I'll probably turn into a big blimp and they'll have to ship me out to sea with the whales-I wouldn't mind living with the whales, they are fascinating creatures and-um I'm sorry Rangiku-san I'm probably boring you or disrupting the search for Kurosaki-chan."

Gun-metal gray eyes fell towards the floor. "I'm a bad friend-Kurosaki-chan is probably scared and alone right now and here I am only thinking of myself and whales and-

Orihime shook her head. "Kurosaki-chan is strong! Whatever comes her way she will get passed it-while its true that Aizen-san is um rather intimidating Kurosaki-chan will not let anyone push her around!" a light laugh "She's probably in the office with him right now demanding that he let Asano-chan have more screen time, probably threatening to walk out on everything if Aizen-san doesn't agree to letting SugaR KingdoM go global."

A sigh "I sometimes wish I had the kind of strength that Kurosaki-chan has. She's fearless! Like a great lioness in the jungle or a warrior in mythical times-she's like Athena and Aphrodite rolled up in one."

"You really like her huh Orihime-chan?"

A blush blossomed onto the brunette's face just then. "What? Oh no no no that's just silly Rangiku-san I mean Kurosaki-chan is-we're just friends although it does kind of make me sad that she refuses to call me Hime and sometimes she's really distant and she looks so-"

"It's okay to love her Orihime-chan."

The princess shook her head. "No it's really not okay I mean she already has so many admirers and-

"Yes but none of them are you."

"Me? There's nothing special about me Rangiku-san I'm just-I'm lucky to have met Kurosaki-chan-I mean next to Tatsuki-chan she-Kurosaki-chan is- a tear slipped from the corner of Orihime's eye and she wiped it away "If I had just one moment-one second even to tell her." Again she shook her head. "No no I can't be selfish like that-I-

Rangiku could no longer stand to watch the princess fall apart in front of her eyes like this.

She was attracted to Orihime-chan. Fully intended on seducing the girl on this very night but she couldn't- the brunette needed a shoulder to cry on not a flirtatious cougar to dance with-although she really would like to dance.

'Get it together Rangiku. You are not some teenage adolescent who hasn't learned how to keep her hormones in check. Orihime-chan is pouring her heart out to you and all you can think about is how much you really want to taste her-Stop! Seriously this is ridiculous. You want sex, go harass the snake, you know she's around here somewhere, probably watching from the shadows-probably laughing at you-

'Oh why did you leave me Ginna? Why did you just up and leave me like I was yesterday's trash? I thought we were good together and then I walk into find you with that thing-well actually no I shouldn't speak ill of a sweet girl like Izzy but still how could you d-?"

Hands were in her hair (How the princess had managed to get her hands free from their binds Rangiku didn't even know or really care)

As the young girl continued to pat her hair with gentle hands Rangiku inwardly cursed herself.

'So much for being a dependable person-In the end she wound up comforting me.'

"A tracking device? You put a tracking device in my stockings?" Ichigo's tone was incredulous as she looked at Kenpa. "Why?"

"I will protect you at all costs Ichigo-even if it means invading your privacy I will do it!"

There was so much conviction and emotion in the older woman's voice that the orangette simply couldn't stay mad at her.

Still-

"So then you really are a professional bodyguard? The stylist part is just an act?"

Kenpa nodded.

Ichigo still felt confused. She wanted to know the whole story.

"Why? I mean when? I-

"I made a promise to your mother."

The orangette blinked. "Kaa-san?" Then she narrowed her eyes at the wild haired woman. "No my-don't-you can't-there's no way you-that is not funny how could you-

"Ichigo."

Kenpa reached for her. Ichigo shrugged the woman off.

'This can't be.'

Again hands came around her-

Ichigo trembled-

"NO!"

It was too much.

Lies lies all of it lies.

There was no way Kenpa could have known her-

"Ichigo let me expla-

"NO!"

The orangette screamed louder this time and then took off in a run.

She had to get away-she had to-there was no way it was possible-she had-it had been-no-no-no

The strawberry ran down the steps and didn't stop running until she reached the outside and then she continued running. Didn't know where she was going-nor did she care.

She could hear heavy footsteps coming from behind her-Kenpa would probably close in on her any minute and

"Easy there."

Strong chest. A deep voice.

Ichigo looked up to find-

"You're the pilot but how ca-

The pilot placed his fingers on his lips as if making a "Shh!" noise-even though it was soundless.

Then he removed the dark shades away from his face and the orangette let out a gasp.

Dark purple orbs met her cinnamon and coffee colored ones.

"You can see?"

"I see a young woman who looks like she's about to collapse."

"A young woman? Me?" Ichigo let out a snort "I'm not even 18 yet."

"But you will be in a few months time correct?"

"Um yeah but uh look I'm kinda trying to run away right now so if you'd kindly step aside I'd greatly app-

"Finally caught up to you Ichigo."

Kenpa. Shit! She was hoping the woman would have given up.

'What the hell is wrong with me? Running? That's not what I was taught? Oh Kaa-san forgive me for-

"We really don't have time for all this. The concert starts in-

Bells went off in Ichigo's head just then.

'The concert! I can't believe I-

"Let's go!"

"So you're through running then Ichigo?"

Ichigo didn't even want to look at Kenpa's face but-

"Look don't talk to me right now. Just do your job and get me to that concert." She turned to the dark skinned man who still hadn't spoken very much "And you what is your name anyway?"

Amusement danced in the man's eyes. "Perhaps if you were paying attention earlier you'd know that my name is Tousen Kaname."

"Tousen Kaname huh? Shouldn't you be attending to Ginna or Aizen instead of going for an evening stroll and talking to a bratty pop star?"

"I probably should," a small smirk "But you are so much prettier than the two of them combined."

"Touch her and I will shoot you where you stand."

Ichigo blinked at the familiar voice and turned.

"Rena?"

OH CRAP LOOKS LIKE THE STORY WILL BE LONGER THAN I SAID-WE'RE LOOKING AT 8 CHAPTERS!
