Sajin stood in front of the eastern wall gate he was saying good bye to Ai. He touched her face gently. He'd told her about the Dai twins -who had arrived this morning giving him no choice- and she'd said she was proud of him for giving them a running chance. But what Ai didn't know was that when she wasn't looking he'd left instructions to some of the remaining squad members to watch them like a hawk especially when they were around Ai. Just because he was giving them a chance didn't mean he trusted them. When they had arrived this morning Sajin had VERY seriously reconsidered taking Ai with him.

Ai looked up at her lover and smiled. "I'll miss you." she said simply. Sajin smiled softly at the quietly spoken words. "I'll miss you as well Ai." He said with a touch to her ears. Then with much sorrow he set her away from him. "I have to go now Ai be carefulplease." He said his eyes flicking in the direction of the twins. Ai smiled and nodded. Sajin felt some relief and then turned to leave.

DAY FOUR

Ai sat in her paperwork room but she just couldn't focus, she would be lying if she said she didn't miss Sajin, or the fact that she had to bury her face into his side of the bed just to be able to fall asleep. She'd also been feeling funny lately, sometimes she felt sick to her stomach other times she didn't. Ai sighed and gave up she got up and decided to take a walk to clear her head.

Ai walked around she looked up at the sky wondering about how her family was doing, when she bumped into someone. "Oh excuse me please!"

Ai stepped back and looked up into a pair of golden colored eyes that did NOT belong to Sajin. Ai felt fear assail her at the sight of the Captain of squad 12 and president of R&D. Her stomach dropped when he smiled at her. "Ah Miss Kitsune how good it is to see you I was hoping you and I might be able to talk for a few moments." Captain Kurosutchi said sweetly.

Ai tasted bile in her mouth but she took a deep breath through her nose and replied politely. "Oh I'm sorry Captain Kurosutchi but i must return to my duties at Squad 7... good day."

Captain Kurosutchi snapped his fingers, and suddenly five soul reapers appeared cutting off her means of escape. Ai looked around fearfully they were all men and could easily over power her. Captain Kurosuchi spoke his voice sounded as if he was giving her a lecture. "You see Miss Kitsune never has one of your kind stepped foot into the Sereitei and I have never been able to study one. For you hide in your forests and my men either die or come back cronicily insane or missing a limb. So i have no research on one of your kind, but then you came along and it would be a shame if I missed out on this opertunity and I would have had the twins bring you in to me but being the incolent fools they are they refused." Kurosutchi said.

Ai looked back at the twisted Captain and snipped at him. "You won't get away from this when Sajin gets back-" Kurosutchi's grin widened. "Oh you mean your lover and Captain? Well I don't have to worry about him when he does return and finds you missing his anger will be direct at the Dai twins. Fools they may be but they will be rather good scapegoats for me." Captain Kurosutchi nodded to his men and they all made a grab at Ai.

But they never expected her to out fox them literally and figurativly, one would get his hands on her and she would wiggle right out of their hands. It was like they were trying to get a grip on water, for they would be able to touch her but not hold onto her.

Ai felt victorious on the inside, being fox-like had its perks such as being good at escaping from almost anything and everything. Ai ducked the swinging hands of another man and ran between his legs and took off towards freedom. She heard Kurosutchi snarl at his men. "After her you idiots don't let her get back to 7th!"

Ai heard them chasing after her, then she heard something strange and instinct told her to move. She shot down a different coridor just as Kurosuchi's extended arm was about to grab her. Everytime she tried to go down one way she'd have to go the other as one of the men tried to grab her. It was then she realised they were forcing her to head towards the 12th squad. Ai knew if she went anywhere near that squad she was screwed. Ai turned and almost ran into the waiting arms of one man but she lashed out with her fist and nailed him in the stomach. Ai side stepped him and contiuned running, she could hear kurosutchi yelling at the fallen man. But Ai just kept running she wasn't sure as of to where she was anymore, all the running had thrown off her sense of direction.

Ai's head whipped around in different directions. fuck! Which way left right straight? who decided to make this place a maze? Suddenly Ai slammed into somebody Ai fell to the ground on impact, she paniced thinking it was one of Kurosutchi's goons. But relief flooded her as a FEMALE voice cursed softly.

"Holy hell that hurt!"

Ai looked up to see a tall blond woman on her butt across from Ai. Ai heard Kurosutchi yelling at his men to find her, Ai acted.

"Excuse me my name's Ai Kitsune and I need somewhere to hide from Captain Kurosutchi... please help me." Ai pleaded the woman.

The woman in question looked at Ai's fearful face with her blue colored orbs, then she jumped when she heard Captain Kurosutchi's voice sound off close by. She stood up and grabbed Ai's hand and pulled her down a corridor. "Come on this way you can hide out at the 11th squad I'll talk to Kenpachi he hates Kurosutchi almost as much as Captain Kuchiki."

Ai wanted to protest but was having alot of troubles keeping up with this woman's fast pace. Ai wondered if maybe she had just jumped from the frying pan into the fire.

11TH SQUAD

Ai followed behind the woman into the 11th squad compound Ai would have looked around fearfully if she wasn't busy trying to breath. Ai was led to a door with the sounds of fighting going on behind it. "W-what is that noise?" she asked fearfully. The blond haird woman looked at Ai and said. "Its the sparring room the men here just simply LOVE to beat the shit out of each other. Oh and my name is Aki Kimura by the way." Then Aki opened the doors and walked in, Ai followed close behind.

Aki hadn't been kidding when she'd said that the men here like to beat the shit out of each other. Ai watch in morbid facination as what looked like the entire squad surrounding its Captain and trying to hack him to pieces. Ai knew her mouth was hanging open and she couldn't look away.

"Its rather disgusting on how they like to make themselves uglier isn't it?" Said a light voice. Ai's head snapped around to look down at squad 11's 5th seat Yumichika. Ai watched Aki sit down next to him, Aki patted the place down next to her. "Take a seat tell me why I needed to hide you from Kurosutchi."

Ai nodded and sat down she explained everything, her eyes kept glancing over at the men sparring. She had heard Iba tell the squad 7 men about his time in squad 11 and what it was like but she'd never thought of THIS. In squad 7 the spar time was carefully chosen matches between soul reapers while the rest of the squad watched and they used nothing but wooden swords. But here it was just chaos everyone fought with everyone, some men had split off into little groups and watched as they're buddies went at it while others just had a mosh pit with Captain Zaraki in the thick of it. They used wooden swords, real swords and their fists, hell there were even a couple men off to the side playing a game of tap out although it was clear they weren't punching each other in the arm playfully.

When Ai finished she turned her attention back to Aki and Yumichika. Aki felt sorry for Ai no one wanted to be Kurosutchi's lab rat.

"I'm sorry Ai I'm sure you can stay here until Captain Komamura gets back." Aki said gently.

Ai felt grateful at the offer. "Thank you but no I should probably get back to 7th-"

"Actually it might be a good idea if you stay here, if Kurosutchi's out to get you then your not all that safe until your Captain gets back." Yumichika cut in.

Ai bit her lip she wasn't afraid per say of this squad but of the fact she'd have to give up her Sajin smelling bed. But she knew that it was the wiser decision, and she nodded. Ai jumped when Aki let out a small squeak. Ai watched as Captain Zaraki had snuck up behind her and was now pulling her backwards to sit in between his long legs, then he preceded to kiss her neck shamelessly. Ai looked over at the men to see many of them were now on the floor groaning and hold different parts of their bodies. While the rest were either leaving or had started drinking at the other side of the room. Ai looked back at the hulking man known as Kenpachi Zaraki and the woman who was now trying to escape from him.

"Uh... Kenpachi what is it with you and coming up behind me!" Aki snarled.

Zaraki grinned and nipped at her neck some more. "Can I help it you have a nice ass that is even nicer to look at and touch?" He emphasized the point by reaching down and cupping Aki's backside. Aki blushed a furious shade of red and slapped his hand... hard. Yumichika sighed and stood up. "Well I think I'll leave as enteraining as this is I've seen it before."

Ai sat there looking somewhere else but the warring couple in front of her, but Ai soon learned that having fox- like hearing had its disadvantages.

"Kenpachi we have a vistitor stop being horny!"

"Then stop being a tease, you left me hard as a rock this morning!"

"I am not a tease and further more its not my fault Yachiru interupted us!"

"beautiful your a tease and you enjoy it, so do I for that matter."

"kenpachi stop it I am not a tease."

"Bullshit Beautiful you tell that to my cock everytime I see you bend over."

"kenpachi she can hear you!"

"Can't help it beautiful you make me want you everytime I see you." Zaraki whispered hotly.

Ai couldn't help but watch from the corner of her eye as Captain Zaraki kissed Aki's neck tenderly. Aki was red as hell but Ai could easily tell her anger had run its course after that kiss. She smiled softly and her eyes were halfway shut. "Come more beautiful you haven't kissed me at all today and just won't do."

Ai kept her gaze away when she saw Aki's eyes look towards, then saw Aki turn her head towards Zaraki and kissed him. When Aki tried to pull away zaraki growled and placed a hand at the back of her head to stop her before he deeped it. When they broke away Aki had a dazed look to her eyes.

"Mmm I love it when you look like that beautiful." Zaraki rumbled quietly.

Aki cleared her throat and turned zaraki's attention to Ai. "Ahem Kenpachi this is Ai Kitsune she's part of squad 7. Captain Kurosutchi is after her and wants to examine her. Do you think we can hide her out here until Captain Komamura gets back?"

Ai watched as Zaraki leaned back on his hands, Aki was still sitting between his outstretched legs. "Well as far as I'm concerned Kurosutchi is always trying to cut some poor bastard open and see what makes them tick. But if she wants to stay here she can but she's on her own if Kurosutchi finds her."

Ai wanted to protest because there was no doubt in her mind that he would figure out where she'd gone if not to 7th. But Aki seemed to just swoop in and save the day.

Aki Turned and placed her hands on Kenpachi's hard thighs which got his full and undivided attention. He licked his lips and stared at her as she leaned forward on her knees, which let him get a glimpse of her cleavage through her shihaksho and she knew it.

"But kenpachi just think, if YOU were the one to make sure Kurosutchi never got to Ai then imagine how much that would piss him off." Aki purred.

Zaraki gave it a moments thought before his trademark grin showed. "You just know how to get whatever you want out of me don't you Beautiful?" Aki smiled in triumph before she crawled up closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed herself flush to him then whispered very quietly into Zaraki's ear. "And if you do a real good job I'll make it worth your while tonight."

Ai blushed at the inneundo and watched as Zaraki's gaze became down right scorching.

"Sir, Captain Kurosutchi is at the entrance asking about some woman?" Called a soul reaper from the doorway.

Zaraki looked at the man breifly before his gaze went back to Aki who was still pressed against him, and was now pressing soft kisses to his collarbone. "She stays in your old room with whatever her name is and we go to bed as soon as I finish with freak face out there got it." Zaraki growled.

Aki looked up at him and smiled in agreement. "Just make it look good for me." she said huskily.

Zaraki moved Aki aside and quiet literally bolt out of the room. Ai looked at Aki to see a very smug smile on her face. Ai could easily imagine Aki with cat ears and a tail at the moment.
