Ichigo looked over and waved seeing Toshiro and Rangiku. "Hey Toshiro!" He blinked seeing that Toshiro only ignored him, looking at a bench.

"Hi Ichigo!" Rangiku smiled as he walked up. "How are you?"

"Fine. What's up with him?"

"Puzzling over a mystery." She sighed. "We lost a squad member to espada."

"Oh." Ichigo nodded. "Was he close to them?"

"Yeah. Captain cared a lot about Miyu."

Ichigo froze. Miyu?! "Wait Miyu was killed?!"

"We don't know… Two espada kidnapped her." Toshiro said suddenly.

"Kidnapped?"

"Yes. We don't know why and we don't know what happened to her."

"You know Miyu, Ichigo?" Rangiku asked.

"Yeah. I met her the other day. She was searching for a hollow."

Toshiro frowned. "Miyu…" He clenched his fist. "I shouldn't have let her go out… Something has been off for her… She hasn't been herself…"

"I'll miss her." Rangiku sighed.

"We don't know if she's dead or not!" Toshiro growled.

Rangiku flinched. "… But even if she's somehow alive… She cant come back… It's extremely hard to escape Huco Mundo."

Toshiro frowned angrily. Miyu… Please be okay…

"Maybe she'll be able to escape." Ichigo said hopefully. "She's strong."

"I'm worried about what she'll do when she sees Aizen." Rangiku tensed. "Do you think that's why he had her kidnapped?"

Toshiro frowned. "More likely for her power."

"What?" Ichigo asked confused. "What are you talking about?"

"Miyu use to have a crush on Aizen." Rangiku supplied. "He was her mentor and they grew close."

"As for her powers… He is one of the few who know."

"What powers?"

Toshiro was silent for a moment. "Miyu has the ability to see spiritual pressure… And once she had seen one, she can't forget it."

Ichigo nodded. "So that's why she was chosen to find that hollow."

"Yes." Toshiro sighed. "Aizen will probably try to use them to his advantage… Miyu…"

"She won't work for him!" Rangiku said determined. "She hates him more than anyone else. After he betrayed us-."

"Then Aizen will torture her of kill her…"

Ichigo and Rangiku flinched and looked away knowing it was true. Ichigo paused as he spotted Jinta.

"Yo carrot head." He nodded.

"What are you doing here, Jinta?"

"Avoiding the boss. The shop is too crowded with the new girl, so I was going to the park. Maybe practice some baseball." He grinned.

"New girl?" Ichigo blinked as Toshiro and Rangiku started to walk away.

"Yeah… Miru… Mitu.. something like that…" Jinta shrugged.

Ichigo and the soul reapers froze. "Miyu?!"

"Yeah that's it."

Toshiro spun around. "MIYU!"
