Chapter 11

"What did you say?" Komamura asked in shock.

Yamamoto looked at them sternly, "I said Sosuke Aizen has escaped from his prison cell." Yamamoto placed his hands on top of each other. "For him to have escaped he had to have an accomplice. Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to leave."

"But who would have been stupid enough to help him?" Toshiro asked.

"I don't know." Yamamoto sighed, "This is a bad time for him to escape."

Shinji turned to look at him, "Why is that Head Captain?"

Yamamoto raised his head to look at him, "Don't you know?"

Shinji crossed his arms, "The only ones gone right now is Kensei and Shuhei."

Ukitake also looked confused, "And we just sent out five members of squad thirteen. Kedera and Koto being among them."

Unohana quietly spoke, "It seems as if Yuizoran's body was reacting to the danger."

Toshiro then remembered what happened early, "She had another attack today also. Her tatto almost covers her upper arm now."

Yamamoto looked at Toshiro, "From your expression that isn't the onl thing you have observed."

Toshiro nodded, "No, before the alarm went off I noticed I really couldn't feel her presence."

"This is unusual." Yamamoto sat quiet for awhile before he spoke again, "I wonder if Aizen's accomplice has anything to do with it."

"What do you plan on doing. Head Captain?" Rangiku asked, hoping she wouldn't be punished for speaking, since she was even supposed to be there.

Yamamoto looked around suddenly realizing that all the lieutenants were there, "Well, until Captain Muguruma and Lieutenant Hisagi get back she can either take turns living at the captain's quarters and go to work with them. Or they live at her place and they take their work with them."

Soi-Fon stood up, causing the other captains to look at her. "Or what we could do is have the punishment force guard her."

All the captains agreed that that might be the best solution. They all knew Soi-Fon didn't like the twins coming to disturb her.

"But what if we need them?" Yamamoto asked making them all realize the down side.

"We can split the twenty members in half." Soi-Fon shrugged her shoulders, "I mean since it seems like Yuizoran is the only one being targeted."

Shinji finally asked his question, "Why do you think she is being targeted, Head Captain?"

Yamamoto rubbed his long beard in thought, "The only thing I can think of is because of the child she is carrying."

A voice spoke from the doorway causing them all to turn and stare, "It could also be her immense spiritual energy." Aang said from where he was leaning against the doorpost.
