Chapter 10
Gin was momentarily stunned when the world reappeared around him like water melting from ice. Looking up from under his hair he found that he was no more in Aizen's meeting than he was president of the United States. Looking around he found that none of the faces around him weren't looking very friendly at all. All of them except…
"GIIIIIIIN!" Gin swirled around only to be faced with a wall of bosom and have arms shoving his face into the suffocating pillow. His arms flailed behind him as he screamed.
"SAVE MEH!" He roared, sadly all the group was able to hear were screams of terror and girliness. Finally his suffocating prison released him and he was able to look up at his attacker. "Ran!" He demanded. The woman nodded and squished her boobs together with her forearms.
"Yes!" She laughed then was distracted by something that popped into her mind. "Here Toicho lookey lookey!" She suddenly squealed heaving Gin in front of her with a shrill giggle. Toshioro sighed his eyebrow twitching, then with out warning jumped up and sideways kicked Gin in the face.
"Why am I always dah one to get beat up?" Gin demanded nursing his now re-broken nose. Hitsugaya shrugged and went in for another kick only to have Matsumoto grab him from behind and squish his head furiously between her large bosom.
"Matsumoto…" Hitsugaya hissed struggling to free himself.
"NOZ CAPTAIN YOU CAN'T HURT GIN!" She whined shaking back and forward feverishly.
"Why not? He's an enemy!" Hitsugaya demanded his voice muffled. "That traitorous little…" He was cut off as Matsumoto re-squished his face in a way that he couldn't talk.
"Not right now he's not!" She insisted before releasing her captain from her grasp.
…
"So…" Gin muttered awkwardly as they all sat around the table sipping tea. Well at least MOST of them were drinking tea. Gin was a bit anxious about drinking the seemingly harmless drink seeing as the little Toshiro hadn't drank his and was glaring at him from across the table
"Awkward." Grimmjow agreed. Glaring at the badly bruised Luppi who sat hugging Orihime eyeing Grimmjow triumphantly which hinted to the fact that he had probably escaped the full brunt of Grimmjow's power.
"So what your saying is that this…baby…is wanted by the soul society?" Gin asked, "And your requesting my… help?" he demanded cocking his head to the side. "Ulqui Ulqui what on Earth do we have to do to keep you out of trouble?" He winked at the irritated looking Ulquiorra.
"That's pretty much the just of it." Urahara nodded sipping his tea and ignoring Gin's other comment.
"A' course I'll help, bu' it's jus' that I'm afraid that Aizen sama's gonna wanna take a look-see a the little pasty demon spawn once it pops out." Gin yawned rubbing his head as Matsumoto leaned on his arm happily.
"But you'll help for the time being right Gin?" Matsumoto crooned as she clutched onto his arm.
"Sure thing." He beamed. "What do I need to do?" he asked as Shunsui, Luppi, and Orihime did a little victory dance in the corner.
…
"Matsumoto you have to let go!" Hitsugaya moaned tugging on Matsumoto's arm that was still attached to Gin's waist. "He has to sleep!" Matsumoto shook her head fiercely her jaw set firmly.
"I'll sleep WITH him then!" She wailed dramatically.
"Your pregnant it doesn't work that way!" Hitsugaya growled digging his feet into the ground as he continued tugging on his big bosomed lieutenant.
"But it's HIS baby!" She wailed.
"I still want to know when the hell you had time to do…THAT! But for now I'm going to continue doing what I'm doing!" Hitsugaya snapped using his sword to gain distance by embedding it in the floor like an ice pick.
"Aw it's fine! Let 'er stay!" Gin retorted desperately trying to breath as Matsumoto's grip tightened around his diaphragm. Hitsugaya stopped struggling momentarily to take a deep breath.
"How'd I guess you would say that." He glared at Gin, then repositioned his feet and continued tugging.
"But it isn't FAAAAIIIRR!" Matsumoto whined.
"You haven't seen him in months and the first thing you want to do is sleep with him?" Hitsugaya demanded then clamped his mouth shut and stopped tugging as Matsumoto got a devilish smile on her face.
"That was dirty toicho." She cackled. "TOICHO'S A PERRRRVVV!" She screamed. Hitsugaya let out a "iiiieh?" Of shock.
"Matsumoto Sh…SHUT UP!" He screamed louder and continued pulling this time with more force.
"This reallah hurts!" Gin whined as his bones creaked. Finally after ten minutes Hitsugaya got Matsumoto to release Gin and personally "Tucked" her into bed using the necessary amounts of rope before he finally shut her door and headed to his own room exhausted, sweating, and embarrassed. Why did she have to be his lieutenant?
"By the way….Toshioro is it?" He swirled around to see a grinning Shinji leaning against the wall just outside of his room.
"Captain Hitsugaya." Hitsugaya insisted wiping his drenched forehead on his sleeve.
"Yeah whatever Kid." Shinji yawned. "I ain't under your jurisdiction. Hell I'm just about the same level as you. Anyway. As soon as you left…the grinning bastard went into the boob ladies room." He chuckled at the look of utter horror that instantly filled Hitsugaya's face. "I guess I'll see yah later then." Shinji waved as the flustered Hitsugaya threw his hands over his head and stormed into his room.
"Your despicable." Urahara laughed as he passed Shinji.
"Maybe…but you were gonna do that too. If it weren't fer the fact I'm quicker on the draw." Shinji grinned tipping his hat over his eyes.
"Oh go make out with Hiyori." Urahara snapped hiding his blush behind his fan.
"Then you go make out with Yoruichi." Shinji smirked turning on his heal and walking away. "G'night." he called over his shoulder ignoring the insults he was being thrown.
…
"Gin?" Matsumoto asked as she lay looking up at the ceiling. "Are you awake?"
"Yeah…" Gin yawned. "Yeh need sometin?" He asked rubbing his eyes with a sigh.
"When this is over…will you come home? Or am I going to have to raise this kid on my own…and don't mention Aizen cause I don't care." she snapped. "Sometimes I swear you love him more than you love me." she pouted.
Rolling over Gin placed his head on his hand and scanned her over.
"I'll come home alrigh'?" He whispered, "If all else fails I'll go an' build us a nice house outside the edge of both soul society and Espada territories. We'll raise our little bean sprouts out there."
"Alright…just asking." she muttered. "Gin?"
"Bean sprouts!" he insisted pulling her into his chest.
"That's not what I was going to say." She giggled. Rolling over so that she was looking at him she whispered. "Are you nervous…about the fight?"
"Naw…I've fought like this most o' my life. Now I wan' you to stay out o' the fight…or at least stay with Orihime…Just cause I don't want to lose my little bean sprouts…or you." He chuckled tweaking her nose so she giggled.
"Sure…I'll stay back." She sighed, "But only if Hitsugaya Toicho lets me." she nodded.
"Sure…though you don't seem to listen to him anyway. Anyway…how's Kira doin'? That's one bean pole I haven't seen in awhile."
"Uh…" she muttered quietly. "Lets just say I owe him a BIG apology." Gin raised an eyebrow quizzically.
"What did yah do?" Gin demanded.
"Nothing nothing…I just…(cough cough) told toicho he raped me so that I could have an excuse as to why I'm preggers…(cough)."
"Oh if that's all…WHAT?" he cried.
"Heheh…long story." she muttered.
"Well I have a long time." He muttered crossly.
…
Halibel growled as a beam of sun escaped the blinds and hit her strait in the face early in the morning. She sat up and raised her hands above her head with a yawn. Stark rolled over and grumbled something about coffee so Halibel sighed and got out of bed and padded into the hall way in order to not disturb her husband's coffee dreams. She was about to the kitchen when she saw Luppi stagger out of Grimmjow's room with a empty bucket rubbing his head.
"Morning Halibel-san." He waved as he darted past her with a furious drenched Grimmjow in hot pursuit. Halibel sighed ignoring their antics as she slumped into the kitchen and pulled the milk out of the fridge. Urahara coughed from behind her and she looked over her shoulder.
"What?" She demanded crossly.
"Please don't drink from the carton!" He grinned fanning himself casually.
"Yeah whatever." She sighed and chugged the remnants of the milk before chucking the carton in the garbage. Urahara shuffled over with a sigh and switched the carton from garbage to recycling. Looking up he watched as the woman snatched a doughnut from the counter and shoved it in her mouth as she flicked on the T.V. and tossed herself onto the couch.
"Yoruichi and you need to spend more time together." He mumbled. "Both have MAJOR issues." He laughed to himself only to get a doughnut chucked at him from Halibel's direction and a drenched toilet wand to the face courtesy of Yoruichi who had been walking in.
"Hello idiot." Yoruichi smirked washing her hands in the sink.
"A toilet wand, really?" He demanded of Yoruichi waving the thing in her direction before he turned to Halibel and displayed his easily caught doughnut. "Who throws a perfectly good doughnut honestly?" he demanded furiously. Halibel shrugged before saying:
"I don't like sprinkles." Urahara gaped as Yoruichi nodded in agreement.
"Nasty." Yoruichi sighed.
"Revolting." Halibel mentioned flatly.
"Where did you get the toilet wand anyway?" Urahara demanded as he placed the thing in the closet. "You don't do house work!" Urahara glared.
"Mr. Tesei asked me to put it away after cleaning Kenpachi's toilet." Yoruichi smirked watching the oncoming look of horror growing on Urahara's face. Urahara gagged noticeably looking at his hands with disgust.
"KENPACHI!" He screamed. Yoruichi nodded as she grabbed a towel and began drying her hands. "IT"S IN MY HAYAH-" He began only to be cut off by a remote controller to the face thrown by Halibel.
"Hey can you toss that back over here?" Halibel called from the couch. Urahara nodded clutching his nose tenderly and threw the remote over knocking over a lamp in the process.
"Nice num-nuts." Yoruichi sighed.
…
"I hate guard duty." Grimmjow moaned as he and Chad sat out on the roof scanning the surrounding area for attacks.
"Hn." Chad nodded in agreement not mentioning how Grimmjow was not supposed to be enjoying it seeing as it was his punishment for sending Ulquiorra to the hollow holding area.
"You bring any food with yeah?" Grimmjow inquired eyeing the man who was petting a bird that had flown over to his hand when they sat down hungrily.
"No." Chad admitted. "I wish I did. I'm hungry as well." He sighed leaning against the chimney.
"Yah nervous?" Grimmjow asked from his spot sitting like a gargoyle on the edge of the roof.
"No, but I'm not excited." Chad grumbled.
"I am…man I can't wait to kick some can." Grimmjow yawned scratching his head. "Smells like waffles." He suddenly said sniffing the air. Falling forward until his feet caught the edge of the roof, holding him up. Peeking into the window he waved at Tesei. "Waffles?" He questioned curiously.
"Yes…the boss wants some." Tesei nodded not seeming fazed by Grimmjow's sudden appearance.
"Cool, care to toss me and Chad up a couple? We're starving up here!" He pleaded his eyes huge as he scanned over the sizzling products.
"I was under the pretenses that Hollows didn't need to eat." Tesei snapped.
"Well I ain't some third ranked hollow! I do enjoy me some waffles!" He assured the man. "Oh and Chad's human you gotta feed those things you know. Or else they get all shriveled and start whining and then they stop moving or making noise at all and Aizen says you have to bury them."
"Yes I do realize this." Tesei smiled amused, "Hang on. I'll send Ururu with some in a minute." Tesei nodded.
"Thank you Tesei-san!" Grimmjow beamed before swinging himself back upright onto the roof. "Woah…head rush." He beamed at Chad who smiled a bit.
"Is he bringing the food?" Chad asked.
"Waffles." Grimmjow grinned.
…
"Captain Commander." Soifong bowed kneeling in front of her commander.
"Soifong…you have failed?" She nodded.
"And Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya and his lieutenant have joined with the others." She explained her head still bowed.
"Their numbers mean nothing to me." He snapped stroking his beard. "They are traitors and will be destroyed as such. Get my new captains and my remaining loyal captains and bring them here. We attack at dawn."
"Yes sir." Soifong bowed again disappearing in an instant.
"Things are far worse than I feared." the old man sighed. "There will be casualties, on both sides." He muttered sadly.
"Perhaps I…could be of assistance?" Captain Commander's head shot up as a voice sounded in front of him.
"Aizen? What do you want you traitorous fool?" Captain Commander roared slamming his cane down on the floor.
"Only to assist. You see…several of my Espada have joined with Ulquiorra, and normally this would not be a problem, but you see…I have heard why you want the child and I admit I am interested in it's abilities." Aizen explained seating himself on a chair across the room.
"Why should I trust you?" Captain Commander demanded.
"Because, my dear old man, without me you will quiet possibly fail and then who will be there for me to fight? You see that would bring me no challenge and absolutely no entertainment. Besides, this child is a threat to my realm and my future. If it can be controlled we can fight over it then, but until then…" he paused. "You must also understand that the Espada are very much mine, and seeing as it is half human half Espada, this creature is just as much yours as mine."
"You wish to form a temporary alliance?" Captain Commander snapped.
"Only to dispose of this threat." Aizen smiled. Captain Commander paused, then nodded looking up.
"Bring your soldiers here, we attack at dawn."
…
"Ikkaku you've been watching Yumichika for hours go get food." Unohana insisted. Ikkaku snored a little and Unohana danced to the other side of him curiously. "And… you're asleep." She sighed. "Isane please help Ikkaku-san to his rooms." She called over her shoulder.
"Yes ma'am." Isane nodded lifting the man onto her back. Once the two had left Unohana picked up a shot full of pain killers and brought it over to Yumichika. Who shuddered as she touched his arm.
"Nemu?" He croaked looking up dazed, his eyes only slightly open.
"No, It's Unohana." She smiled "You've been asleep for sometime." She explained holding up the needle to show him what she was doing. Usually he would have flinched and dove across the room for cover or somehow manage to dive out a window and run away before getting a shot, but now he simply nodded and stuck out his arm.
"Where's Nemu?" He asked.
"Still asleep Yumichika you protected well." Unohana slid the needle into his arm and squeezed the liquid into his blood stream.
"Thank you ma'am." He managed a smile as his wounds started to numb.
"Yumichika. Ikkaku has been in here everyday. Remember to thank him." Unohana demanded in a firm but sweet voice.
"I will." Yumichika nodded firmly. "Unohana-sama…" he began.
"Yes dear?" She asked shuffling through drawers looking for some unknown object.
"Am I still pretty?" he demanded. Unohana chuckled.
"Yes, very pretty indeed." She explained making him beam proudly.
"One more thing." Yumichika called as she went to leave. She looked back at him with a patient smile.
"Yes?"
"When can I leave?" She smiled at him sweetly.
"Soon, let me run some test and you and we'll go from that, okay?" Yumichika frowned.
"More needles?" He asked. Unohana smiled and shook her head. Yumichika let out a "He he!" of joy and triumph.
…
"Nemu?" Nemu groaned and rolled over. Her head throbbed, and her chest felt like it was on fire. "Nemu? Love?" She grunted and reached out waving her hand in an attempt to dismiss the voice disturbing her sleep. "NEMU!" she yelped and sat up with a jolt smacking into someone with her head.
"Oh…Ishida." She whispered rubbing her forehead with a sigh as he twitched in the corner. "I am sorry." She squeaked bowing slightly. Suddenly she remembered why she was in pain. "Yumichika?" She demanded scanning the room frantically.
"Awake and bugging people." Ishida sighed fixing his glasses with his finger. "Now we're just waiting on you." She smiled and tugged at her blanket nervously.
"I should be dead." She muttered sadly. "I betrayed my father. Mayuri sama will never forgive me for such an action."
"Forget him!" Ishida snapped sitting on the bed and taking her hand in his own. "He beat you! He was terrible to you. Yet you protect him! Why?"
"He is my father. He was not always like this. When I was younger…" she sighed reveling in the past for a moment. "He was my rock…he never faltered. Even when I did." she nodded. "I promised that he would stop hitting me. That we could go back to what it was like when I was just a child. When he still loved me." She muttered. "Now I have no home to go to, and no father to care for." She sobbed pulling her hands up to her face so she could catch the tears leaking from her eyes. Ishida sighed and took her hands back in his. Lifting her chin with a finger he said:
"You have a home." He smiled. "I already told you that. You can come live with me. I have my own apartment. You would be safe, and I would NEVER harm you." He whispered. She looked up at him, and with a sob threw herself into his chest.
Minding her injuries, he wrapped his arms around her comfortingly.
"T…thank you." she whispered nuzzling into his chest.
"It's what I'm here for." He chuckled stroking her hair fondly.
…
"I smell something." Kenpachi snarled while he covered guard duty. Standing he suddenly beamed "Yachiru, go alert the others. Funs a comin." Beaming Yachiru leapt from her captains back and disappeared all the while singing happily.
"Their a comin' the soul reapers are a comin'! Raise the alarm cause the parties startin' "
…
Next chapter is when the fun really begins! How will this Powwow Shinji described go? How much of a chance do they have now that Aizen is on Captain Commander's side? Review or terrible things might happen!
