What was I thinking when I signed up to tutor this year? I know what I was thinking...I like teaching people things and being helpful (money is good too). I forgot about the having a life and time issue. So yeah, I started Tutoring twice a week today! I doubt it will interfere with this story getting uploaded, aside from it being uploaded later because I tutor in the morning.


Conspiracy

"Aoki Takumi was one of the few royals in the shinigami force that also had great power. He was placed under Kuchiki because they were both royals and because they worked well together. The two of them were good friends and a force to be reckoned with when put together." Yamamoto explained pausing to gather his thoughts.

"When he developed his seal and expressed his wish to travel to Hueco Mundo and gain test subjects. He wanted to use the hollow's riatsu to create a anti-hollow riatsu that would be able to easily destroy all the hollows that go to earth but also allow all shinigami and people to be unharmed by it. I thought that it was a good idea so I gave him permission to begin his studies." Yamamoto continued.

"You mean to tell me that Takumi was following your orders?" I questioned being unable to keep quiet about what I just learned.

"You have to understand, Eri, I never knew exactly how far this whole thing was going to go. I never thought that he would go after upper level hollows and I didn't think he would experiment on himself. I definitely didn't know that the riatsu would be able to be transferred genetically." Yamamoto explained apologetically.

"Very well, but sending a lone shinigami into Hueco Mundo numerous times isn't the brightest idea." I pointed out.

"Yes, well I am sure that Takumi would have figured out another way to get there if I hadn't allowed it. I figured might as well know what he is up to. I didn't see any problems with his experiments until he started raising the level of types of hollows that he went after. When he mentioned sealing an Adjucas level hollow I forbade it. He didn't listen to me and continued to experiment with his seals."

"So when Takumi came back with me inside his sword you were there waiting angrily in his home." Itami added.

"How did you know?"

"I could hear what was happening from inside the sword."

"Like he said I found out that Takumi had gone to Hueco Mundo without permission and I was waiting in his home for him to get back so I could punish him. When he came back he was not himself...


Flashback young-er Yamamoto point of view (yes another flashback)

"Aoki Takumi." I growled out in anger as I saw Takumi come back from Hueco Mundo. He ignored me in favor of staring at his sword.

"I..." Takumi began looking up at me for a second before concentrating on his sword once more.

"You are in lots of trouble." I told him crossing my arms and hoping that he would give me a better explination for why he disobeyed me.

"Gone..." Takumi told me walking up to me and grabbing my shoulders, "Kaze is gone!" Takumi shouted crazily while shacking me slightly.

"What are you talking about?" I questioned as I removed his hands from my shoulder.

"I-I should have listened. I found...no Adjucas...seal failed. Kaze is gone!" Takumi said switching between muttering incoherently and shouting at the end.

"That doesn't make sense how can Kaze be gone?" I questioned knowing that he was refering to his zanpakuto's spirit.

"I sealed. I sealed the hollow in Kaze..." Takumi said trailing off before his eyes grew wide in realization, "He ate Kaze!"

"What!?" I questioned hoping that Takumi was not talking about some new type of hollow that can eat the spirits that are inside a zanpakuto, because if there is then all of our zanpakuto's are in danger.

"I was out looking for an Adjucas level hollow. The seal would have worked if he had been an Adjucas level hollow." Takumi explained glaring and hissing slightly at the zanpakuto in anger.

"You should have listened to me." I pointed out using every bit of restraint I had not to just say I-told-you-so.

"Yes," he said quickly disregarding his transgression completely to continue his explanation, "I was tracking an Adjucas but I found a hollow that was stronger."

"You faced a vasto lorde?" I questioned shocked.

"Yes, well he seemed insulted when he thought I was calling him an Adjucas level hollow. I used my seal on him and it sealed some of his power. Then get got mad and long story shorter I had to use something to help seal him. The only object around was my zanpakuto Kaze."

"What are you going to do now, I mean you can't use your zanpakuto anymore?"

"Hopefully I wont need it anymore." Takumi said suddenly looking a lot better as if by telling me his story he figured out a plan.

"What do you mean?"

"I can just use him for my experiment."

"What makes you think that I will allow you to do anything?" I asked remindng him that he was in trouble.

"The fact that if you don't allow me to then I will unseal the hollow from the sword and let it destroy everything."

"You would consciously allow it?"

"I care for nothing but my experiments."

"What about your friends, your family?"

"My friends are smart enough to find a safe place to flee. My family, well they can just die."

"..." I couldn't say anything I could only stare shocked at him.

"Although I would miss my wife, I do like her."

"I shall allow you to continue your experiments, but you must inform me if there is any progress or if you decide to experiment on any humans. I do mean any, that includes you."


...He disregarded my order and eventually started experimenting on himself in secret. After twenty years of experiments he finally created what he called 'The Mirror Riatsu' and tested it on himself. A year later his wife bore a son that was gifted with a strange riatsu but it was considerably lower in level then any Aoki riatsu before it."

"Wait, if the riatsu stemmed from Takumi what about Aoki members descended from other members of the family?"

"There are no Aoki clan members descended from anyone else. The entire Aoki clan, including Takumi, were killed by stray hollows who were after Takumi's children. None of the other members of the Aoki clan were shinigami and Takumi had five children with delicious riatsu, although it wasn't as potent as Eri's."

"So all the clan members were killed defending Takumi's kids?" Soi Fon questioned.

"Yes. So all Aoki members descended from those five children. They all passed along the tainted riatsu each one having completely different levels of it. That is until you, Eri. You have the perfect mirror of his riatsu."

"Well that was a lovely story, thank you both for sharing." Aizen said clapping for no apparent reason.

"So this whole thing was going on years ago?" Shinji questioned.

"Yes. It was one of the few things I regret condoning." Yamamoto admitted.

"Shouldn't the mirror work the other way too?" Hitsugaya asked smartly.

"Yes." Itami answered before grinning at the small shinigami, "But she has that lovely bracelet on so she can not resist me."

"Speaking of, Aizen a little help." I said lifting my arm.

"Could you wait a bit, I wouldn't want to get in the way of the battles just to get over to you." Aizen explained.

"Very well."

"Good luck in your fight father, I will be waiting to see who the victor is." Itami said signaling that the battles should start once more.

"Ooo." Wonderweiss said happily to me.

"Yes, we can watch the battles." I told Wonderweiss and prepared myself to store up some energy so that I could fight against Itami's hold just in case he tries to make me do something I don't want to do.


Preview from next chapter:???

I am not really sure what is going to happen next...I want to see what Aizen does this week in the manga then hopefully that will give me something to work with. Or if not what Aizen does then where Kenpachi and Bya are...etc.
