Life or Death: A Test of Powers

The rest of the trip to Hueco Mundo was silent. I refused to look up. I couldn't look at Tanya because I felt like this was my fault. I just stayed where I was, and if I saw myself from a different perspective, I'd look dead. I could hear a garganta opening and we were beginnig our descent into Las Noches. I hated the feeling of the descent. It made me think of a roller coaster and I wanted to scream sooo bad. Heights terrifeid me, but I kept silent.

I then hear a set of doors opening, which is when Grimmjow placed me on the ground. I almost landed on the ground on my ass, but I managed to catch myself.

"Walk!" he commanded. I then began to make small steps, like he was my mother telling me to do something and I was scared because she yelled. Tanya was walking beside me. I felt like a soldier being lead to my execution, but that got me to think.

If I were a soldier being lead to the slaughter, I wouldn't want my executioner to see me like this! Smile ya stupid bitch! I cursed myself out mentally until I found myself holding my head up and grinning proudly.

"What are you so happy about?" Grimmjow asked me. I was still silent. He looked in front of himself and pushed open two very tall double doors. When we walked in, I immediately saw a tall white throne with Aizen sitting in it. He was resting his chin on his hand. I then looked to his left and right. I saw Gin, with his same shit-eating grin, and Tousen.

"We have brought them as you requested." Ulquiorra said.

"Thank you Ulquiorra." Aizen said as he began to make his way down the long staircase. I still held my head up, and maintained eye contact with him until he was on ground level. When he made it, he spoke to us in a sickeningly calm way.

"Hello young ladies. May I ask of your names?" I just looked at him, so Tanya took her chance to respond.

"Tatiana Jenkins." She said quietly. Aizen then looked at me.

"And you?" he asked, still ever so calmly. I remained silent for the next ten seconds. He furrowed his brows slightly and began speaking again.

"Insubordination isn't going to get you very far here, so I'm going to ask you one more time," then he blasted me with is spirit energy. I couldn't breath or move any of my limbs. "What is your name?"

The spirit energy finally stopped. I found myself collapsing to the ground, but I picked myself up immediately, as to show no sign of weakness. I wiped a little bit of sweat off of my forehead.

"Myesha Carson." I said. My voice was almost inaudible.

"Well Miss Carson," he began "I understand that you might be upset, but you will that things will go much smoother here if you simply cooperate."

"I don't fuck with establishment." I told him very calmly. That was a very bold move to swear in front of him.

"So what do we call you?" Tanya said, trying to make herself seem unaware of who he was.

"My apologies Miss Jenkins," he began "Call me Lord Aizen." Figures he would add the Lord…

"Anyway, there is a matter that I must call attention to." He said. "Miss Carson."

I nodded in acknowledgement.

"It has brought to my attention that you have the power of teleportation." He told me. That caught me by surprise, but it explained what happened at the riverbank.

"I would like to test this power. Miss Jenkins, may you please take ten spaces to your left." She remained silent and complied to his request. I looked over at her then back in front of myself.

"Wait, I can't teleport." I tried to plead, but Aizen had already taken a series of steps back too. What's going on?

"Ulquiorra." He said to the pale-faced Espada.

"Yes sir." He said. He then stood beside Aizen and held out his index finger. Wait, is he charging a cero? I looked as a green orb began to form. Oh shit, what do I do? WHAT DO I DO? For some odd reason, my body wouldn't move, at all. I felt so terrified as the cero charged. Then he shifted his aim from myself to Tanya. Wait, what?

He then fired.

"TANYA!" I screamed, running and reaching for her. The next thing I knew, I was standing in front of her, and the cero was 3 feet away. I closed my eyes tightly. My life flashed before me and I held my breath. I guess this is the end…

Inhale. Exhale. I'm still breathing? I opened my eyes to see a miraculous sight. The cero had stopped right in front of my face. It was still there. Tanya poked her head from behind my shoulder. Suddenly, electricity surrounded the cero, and it began to shrink.

"It's shrinking." Tanya said quietly.

The cero continued to shrink until it was a small, greenish-black ball. It then fell and hit the ground. It sounded like a bead.

I reached down and carefully picked it up. After I had finished examining it, I looked up. Grimmjow looked surprised. Aizen looked surprised. Gin was so surprised that he opened his eyes. Ulquiorra even looked surprised. I took the liberty of speaking.

"Why the hell did you do that?" I asked angrily. Aizen snapped back and responded for me.

"It was a means of testing your powers, and no-" I cut him off and yelled angrily while taking steps up to him.

"Man, fuck dat, you tried to kill us! That was FUCKED UP! You talk about cooperation, how da fuck can I if I'm dead, but it doesn't make a difference and do you know why?" I was now right in front of him and in his face.

"Because you ain't nuthin' but a piece of cheese without the corners, so in other words you aint never gonna be a slice BITCH!" I said while poking his chest. I was so pissed! Everyone looked even more surprised then earlier. Aizen simply smiled and placed his hand on my head.

"Well then, we have quite a piece of work here." He began. His voice sounded kind of awkward. "We will have to train you on manners as well." He began to blast me with more spirit energy than before. I forced myself to grab his hand and choke out a few words.

"Keep your hands off me bitch!" I said. He then stopped and chuckled.

"Grimmjow," he said "she is your responsibility. Ulquiorra, Miss Jenkins is yours."

"Yes sir." Ulquiorra responded. Grimmjow simply nodded.

"Take them to their rooms." He said.

"Do they have showers, or toilets?" Tanya asked. I was about to ask, but it was better that she did, seeing how him and I wouldn't be on common grounds through this whole experience. I could sense it already.

"Yes they do." He told her. "You will also find new clothes." She nodded as we began to walk away.

I'm tired. My legs hurt…

I thought of how exhausted I was as we made our way to our rooms. I then noticed when we made it to one hall, Grimmjow lead me in one direction and Ulquiorra lead Tanya in another. I took one more look at her until I heard Grimmjow call me.

"Keep up!" he called. I found myself having to jog to catch up to him. We walked down a few more long halls until we came to a door. He opened the door. I examined the room.

One bed, one sofa, and a bathroom. I sat down on the bed and looked down.

"That took a hell of a lot of spunk." He told me. I looked up tiredly.

"No one has ever spoken to Aizen like that." I was too tired to actually speak, let alone to be in a good mood.

"I said I don't fuck with establishment, and that goes for you too." I said in a low voice.

"Che." He replied. He made his way to the door. "I'll be back with dinner in two hours." He said. He then left the room and hear it lock from the outside. I looked out my window, and before I knew it, I had passed out on my bed.

A/N: Wow, I always wanted to say something like that to Aizen. Lol, that cheese thing came from Kevin Hart: Seriously Funny. R&R!
