"W-what...you...don't..." Mina-Rei stuttered, astonished by my response. She shook her head. "I don't think you understand...I love you Izuru...I need you..." I looked away. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" she screamed, and I looked up to see her dashing at Momo. She jumped back, evading Mina-Rei's attack, and pulled out Tobiume.

"M-My fault?" Momo said, in a disbelieving tone. "I...I loved him before you ever even knew him! And I won't let you take him from me! Snap, Tobiume!" she threw a fireball at Mina-Rei. She jumped to the side.

"I took Izuru from you? Ha! As if you're any match for me!" she positioned her zanpakuto in front of her. "Beat them into the ground, Kaminari!" my eyes narrowed as her zanpakuto glowed orange and morphed into a ball and chain. She threw the ball at Momo, the chain extending so she can hold it and control it. Momo dodged.

"Momo!" I shouted out, flash-stepping towards her. All of a sudden, Mina-Rei was in front of me, using her arm to stop me. I ran into her, my throat making contact with her forearm. She pushed me back.

"NO! Stay away from her! Stop loving her! You aren't supposed to love her!" She focused her attention back towards Momo. "Now...you die." Damn...

Mamoko's POV

I was still run-down, but at least I could run on my own now...we were in some kind of wasteland. There was absolutely nothing.

"We're in Hueco Mundo." Toshiro announced. Hueco Mundo is a dimension? "Somewhere deserted. Not anywhere near Las Noches..." I shuddered. I never want to go there again.

"C-can we...you know...leave?" I asked. Rangiku nodded in agreement.

"Yea, this place creeps me out."

"Alright." Toshiro said, and he began to recite the incantation. I sighed. Are we ever gonna find Izuru and Momo? We were in...what? Our 30-something dimension? "Lets go."

"Yes, Captain." we ran into the portal, and as we reached the end, we heard arguing. I couldn't hear everything, but I did hear 2 words very clearly. Steal, and Izuru. My hopes lifted one again, and I began running faster, Rangiku and Toshiro easily keeping up with me. We exited into another dimensia. My eyes widened at the scene. Momo and a mysterious girl fought, and Izuru stood helplessly to the side. He noticed us and his face shined with hope.

"Mamoko!" The girl turned around.

"W-what? No way!" she flash-stepped behind Izuru, her arm around him and her sword pointed at us. He looked very uncomfortable. "JUST LEAVE US ALONE!" I began to get angry.

"What the hell do you mean? Izuru was kidnapped! He doesn't want this! And just who the hell are you anyway?" she glared at me.

"Mina-Rei Chiba." my eyes widened. Mina-Rei Chiba...MRC...

"Mr. C...is a girl? ! ?" I unsheathed Loka Luha. "So you...you're the one who kidnapped him and Momo!" she narrowed her eyes further.

"Leave...now. And maybe I'll let you live."

"Excuse me?" Rangiku said. "Who do you think you are telling a Captain and Lieutenant what to do?"

"Relax, Matsumoto." Toshiro said, suddenly calm. "It's not like she's going anywhere." Mina-Rei put on an angry face.

"What do you-?" suddenly, Toshiro disappeared and reappeared behind her, sword to her throat.

"Because she's coming with us."

"I'm not going with you, Captain Hitsugaya." he narrowed his eyes.

"Any why is that?" she grinned in a psychotic manner.

"Because Mist is going to save me." all of a sudden, that same smoke appeared out of nowhere, and floated towards Toshiro. All of a sudden, it surrounded him so he was now invisible to us.

"T-Toshiro?" I called out. Mina-Rei smiled at me.

"Toshiro is no more." all of a sudden, I heard him cry out, and I snapped my head towards him to see blood squirting in the air. The mist floated away, revealing a cut up and heavily bleeding Toshiro on the ground.

"Toshiro!" I screamed, shaking. I noticed Izuru go to help him, but Mina-Rei held him back.

"Don't you go anywhere near him!" she commanded.

"C-Captain..." Rangiku said in shock. Mina-Rei looked at us.

"Now...who's next..." she looked at Momo and smiled "How about you Miss Home-wrecker?" I felt my blood boil. I lunged at her, Loka Luha at the ready.

"Don't you dare hurt her!" I shouted. She looked over at me, bored. We clashed swords, and I glared at her. "That is enough, Mina-Rei." I told her. "Izuru doesn't love you. Get over it." she yelled out in anger, spiritual pressure leaking dangerously out of her.

"Noooo!" she screamed, pushing me roughly away. "Mist...divide and conquer." all of a sudden, the big blob of smoke broke into 3 parts. My eyes widened. One for me...one for Rangiku...one for Momo... I flash-stepped in front of Momo and Rangiku, whom both went to tend to Toshiro. The both looked up at me.

"Rangiku, use Haineko." she nodded and stood.

"Now growl, Haineko!" her zanpakuto turned into smoke and blocked the path of "Mist". Me and Momo helped up Toshiro. He was bleeding very heavily. "Mamoko! Momo! It's coming through!" I looked, and sure enough, the mist was slowly leaking through Haineko's defense and surrounding us. And if you look closely...you can see tiny little blades floating in the middle. She began flicking her wrist. "It won't cut!" I heard Mina-Rei laughing from the other side of the smoke.

"Please, Mist is just that. Mist. It can't be cut, it can't be hurt." she giggled. "Now say bye-bye!"

Izuru's POV

I stared wide-eyed at the scene displayed before me. No...Mamoko...Rangiku...Momo...I looked around. A single cloud floated my way. I suddenly thought of something...Mina-Rei said that she stored Wabisuke away, and she also said that these clouds also work as some sort of holding device. I grabbed the cloud in my hand, and began swirling my finger above it, wishing desperately for Wabisuke. I blew the smoke away, and I held my beloved zanpakuto in my hand. I suddenly grinned.

"Enough, Mina-Rei!" I shouted. She whirled around, and I held the tip of my zanpakuto to her throat. Her eyes widened.

"I-Izuru...what are you doing...?"

"I can't let you do this to my friends."

"You don't need friends! You have me!"

"Just shut up, Mina-Rei! I will not let you kill them. I will not allow you to take me from my life. And I will not let you take me from Momo." she closed her eyes and began shaking.

"You do think I'm insane...but I love you...and if I can't have you..." she began to glow an orange color.

"NO ONE WILL!"
