(Chie's POV)

There was a heavy 'BANG' as Starrk fell to the floor in a beautiful, deep sleep. Oh, how I'd love to be able to do that right now. I'm so damn exhausted.

"That's worse than me..." Kitsune murmured.

"STARRK!" Lilinette yelled, turning back to go and help him.

Halibel turned around also, dashing back to get the lazy bastard. She effortlessly picked him up and threw him over her shoulder. She then caught up to us with ease and continued to run.

"Where the fuck are we going?" Nnoitra asked grouchily.

"Somewhere..." Gin replied, giving off one of his grins that I actually find kinda creepy.

"So that you can rape us?" Grimmjow questioned nonchalantly. Kitsune dropped the glass she was holding that she probably took from the meeting room in shock.

I have no idea what 'rape' is, so I put on the cutest, most innocent face in the world and asked.

"What's rape?"

The silence that followed was so quiet that you could hear the hollow-crickets chirping.

"It's when forced se-" Nnoitra began explaining, but was soon rudely interrupted by Nel's well-aimed punch to his nose.

"-x is forced onto someon-" Grimmjow continued, before being interrupted again by Kitsune and her well-placed kick to his crotch. His hands dashed there and he fell to the ground in pain, a couple of the Arrancar stopped to laugh at his misfortune. He jumped up and snarled at them as he rejoined us.

Spoony-spada quickly recovered from the blow, but had forgotten all about the 'rape' explanation already. I assume Nel punched him a little bit harder than intended. For his sake, I didn't ask again.

"So seriously, where the fuck are we going?" he questioned irritably, rubbing the bump that was forming right in the middle of his face.

"Yeah, why are we running from a few measly Shinigami?" Grimmjow asked.

"Because. I'm not finished with Inoue-san yet, and the havoc down there would be too much. We need a safer, quieter environment to complete the task," Aizen clarified.

Szayel turned around to face Grimmjow, holding some kind of remote in his hand.

"That isn't the only reason... Allow me to present to you, Exhibit A," he said, pushing a button on the remote. Recorded footage of Ichigo beating up Grimmjow in the World of the Living displayed above the remote as a hologram. Grimmjow snarled and swiped angrily at the picture. Scared, Szayel dropped it. As it hit the ground, the picture faded away.

"T'is true though, Ichigo would kick your ass. He has the good guy advantage," I spoke carelessly, I heard a chorus of sniggers coming from everyone around me.

Grimmjow let out a low growl. Frightened, I edged closer to Ulquiorra-sama. Kitsune sighed and pulled Grimmjow away from us nonchalantly.

Grimmjow glared at Kitsune and shoved her away violently.

"We're here!" Gin exclaimed cheerfully. We were on top of Las Noches and had an excellent view of the Shinigami. I can't fight them...

Halibel stood still, focusing intensely. "I'll take the black-haired girl," she said, sonidoing down.

"Ichi-shit is mine," Grimmjow grinned, sonidoing off.

"No way, he's mine!" Akiro yelled, chasing after him.

"Grimmjow's gonna lose..." Szayel and I muttered, shaking our heads in disapproval.

"I'll take red-head... Wait... Who's got big boobs?" Kitsune shouted.

"Doesn't matter, I'LL TAKE THEM ALL!" Nnoitra yelled, sonidoing down to the first poor unfortunate.

"The whole reason this war is starting is because we kidnapped Orihime... and we don't even know where she is," Nel said.

"Ulquiorra was lef' in charge of 'er," Gin said.

Everyone's gaze automatically shifted to Ulquiorra, soon noticing a bound and gagged Orihime on the floor next to him.

"You expect me to fail a task given to me by Aizen-sama?" he narrowed his eyes at us.

"Split up, and Ulquiorra, stay here with Orihime," Aizen commanded.

"But... But..." I stuttered, gaining a glare from both Superman and Blindy. "Gin?" I called out of pure desperation.

"Why is it, Fraccion, that you are so persistent to stay with me?" Ulquiorra-sama asked, earning a blush from me.

"Yes, why?" Szayel snickered.

"Uhm... Uh... No reason... Just... Never mind, I'll just be going then-"

"Wait! The experiment still needs to be done," Szayel interrupted me rudely.

"Wha...?" Kitsune murmured, confused.

"Ah yes, the test..." Aizen smirked.

"What test?" I asked curiously.

"Who should we try it on?" Szayel questioned.

"Whoever gets injured badly enough," Aizen replied.

"What test?" I repeated.

"If I let her do it on me I could also see the power of her Ceros," Szayel explained.

"Then let her do it on you."

"What. Freakin'. TEST?" I shouted angrily.

They turned to me and replied in unison, "The test."

"And what is the test?" I glared, irritated.

"The test," they repeated simultaneously.

I stared at them for a moment, them staring back. After three seconds of staring, it turned into a very intense staring competition. I was struggling to keep my eyes open. They stared effortlessly. I wouldn't give in. I wouldn't let them have the satisfaction of beating me. But then, the worst happened...

...I blinked.

"You lose," Szayel pointed out. Curses. Now shut up and never bring this up again. Otherwise I'll make you eat Orihime's cooking.

"Anyway, Aizen-sama... Who? I have a feeling she may need to do it from... A very special place, for it to work," Szayel described vaguely. "If I let her do it on me, I can observe how powerful her Ceros are, but for the other thing... You know where my hollow hole is..."

So this is about Ceros and hollow holes? Okay...

"Hm, yes... That wouldn't be very... Ahem... Pleasant. We'll see who loses first. That will be the victim," Aizen smirked his notorious smirk as he peered over the edge.
