In The Harsh Sands of Wakou Mundo Ichigo trudged on, Knee Deep in White Sand, Shielding his Face From The Blowing Sand with his arm.
"How much further is She?", Ichigo asked himself, "I've Sensed her Reiatsu For a long time now but it hasn't gotten stronger or weaker..."
FWIIISSSSSHHHHH!
"What was that, something just Zipped past me?"
FWIIISSSSSHHHHH!
"Whoever it is is behind me!", Ichigo yelled to himself and turned to face the opponent.
"You should have Never Returned to this place, Kurosaki..., Now I am afraid I must eliminate you...", The Opponent Spoke.
"Tosen?, you're supposed to be-", Ichigo started before being cut off.
"Dead?... how foolish, do you believe i would allow myself to die before completing my life's dedicated mission?", Kaname Asked Angrily.
"I will finish this quickly, child", he stated.

"Bankai, Suzumushi Tsuishiki: Enma Kōrogi"
Tosen raises his sword into the air and places his palm to the ring on the bottom of the Tsuba and it begins to rotate and expand and seperates into several more rings, they vibrate creating a piercing ring and then fly toward ichigo, and rob him of all senses... almost all.
Ichigo immediately reaches to his little bag hidden in his sash and pulls out a small yellow pill.
'Urahara comes up with the most useful, if a bit wierd things, this pill will do the trick, he say it lets whoever swallows it close their eyes, and then generates a real-time thermal image of their surroundings that they can see when their eyes are closed.'
He pops it in his mouth and then smiles in satisfaction.
"I can see you...", he whispers and then appears behind kaname.
"Impossible, how can you?-"
"I can see your body heat, Captain", ichigo explains.
"Looks like you're having trouble, need help?", asks a voice that is impossible to forget.
"Ichimaru?", Ichigo asks.
"Yeah, hey, it's da creepy kid again, nice to meetcha again, Ichigo", Gin replies, noticing Ichigo is the one fighting kaname.
"Kaname, you can let me take over, can't you?"
"What?, But I'm?-"
"CAN'T YOU?", Gin repeats widening his grin and releasing a spark of reiatsu to show he is serious.
"Sorry, sir", Kaname suddenly replies before absorbing his bankia back into his blade and dissappearing.
"So, kid, i'm here to explain why we're still alive and well", Gin Starts.

"Why did Kaname act so scared of you?", Ichigo asked instantly.
"Scared, no, no he simply remembered his place in the hierarchy, 3rd place", Gin Started.
"So you're his superior, i thought you and him we're both second in command?", Ichigo asked.
"No he is the 3rd commander, I'm the 2nd and Lord Aizen's 1st in command", Gin replied.
"Like the espada me and kaname are ordered based on strength", Gin Continued.
"Gin what is this?", Asked another voice.
"It's nothing Aizen, i'm just explaining to Kurosaki the situation", Gin Replied.
There Aizen stood, in the final form with which he fought Kurosaki's final Getsuga Tensho.
"have you gotten to the part where i tricked them all?", Aizen Asked with a sadistic grin.
"I was about to...", Gin Replied.
"Good, because I want to tell him...", Aizen Replied.
"Kurosaki?, do you know what my Shikai's Special Ability is?", Aizen asked turning his attention to ichigo.
"Complete and flawless Hypnosis, Child...", Aizen says before ichigo can answer.
"how do you know the entire winter war wasn't a lie...?", Aizen started.
"how do you know that i'm really talking to you right now?", Aizen Continued.
"Couldn't it all have been..."
"An ILLUSION?", Aizen finished.
"It Was", Aizen Pressed on.

"You're lying!", Ichigo Yelled.
"But can you think of any other reason that i would still be here in Hueco Mundo rather than Central 46's underground prison?", Aizen asked.
"The Aizen you all fought during the winter war was not me, it was the same Illusion I used to lead everyone to believe I was dead back in the Soul Society."
"But, I can explain all this later, right now i-"
"Would you like to play Kageoni with me?, Sosuke?", Asked a familiar voice.
"Shunsui Kyōraku, you-y-you you cut me?", Aizen Stuttered.
"My favorite game is Irooni, a color game where the color i shout out is the color that takes the most damage, for example, that form of yours is white, earlier i picked white, and used Kageoni to appear in your shadow, and stabbed you in the back thanks to the increase in power when i called white, whoever has the called color on their body takes extra damage...", Kyōraku Explained.
Gin Unsheathes his blade and prepares to help when aizen motions for him to stay put.
"Do not interfere, Gin", Aizen tells him.

Aizen raises an open hand and speaks, "Hadō 31, Shakkahō."
A red blast glows in his palm and fires at Shunsui, and sends aizen flying.
After the blast clears aizen sees Jūshirō Ukitake standing in front of Shunsui with his shikai, Sōgyo no Kotowari.
"Ah, so you absobed my Kidō and fired it back at me, eh?", aizen thought aloud.

"Yes. And defeating both of us won't be easy.", Ukitake Stated.
"Besides, even if it is, you'll have to deal with Yamamoto over there", he comments pointing to a fiery figure waiting in the distance.
