Disclaimer: I still do not on Bleach, never will but all well. I will just have to suffer!
A/N: Right, well it's been forever and I am truly sorry about that. Truly I am! This chapter should have been out years, years ago, but at last it was not! There really is no excuse except adult life is not the best and keeps me very busy. I literally work all the time, though can't really complain cause it pays well and is so so much better than my last job where I was stressed out all the time. I have dealt with many things like having to bury my mom and dealing with all the chaos that comes with that and having to be the one to handle all the family chaos being the only mature one in the family apparently, which is ironic in itself.
Anyways...
Let's see standard excuse for poor grammar... please excuse any mistakes that I missed and if the characters seem out of character, this is an AU after all.
Well if anyone is still reading this and is glad for the update I hope you enjoy! ^_^
Chapter Twenty: New Arrivals
"…As I was saying," The new voice said eyeing the person beside him with a slight glare. "You will wait here along with your friends, in order for your safety."
"The hell I will!" Yoruichi screamed at the unknown person hiding in the dark.
"Ooo Cappy she has bite!" the cheery voice sounded. "I like her!"
"You would Matsumoto." The voice mumbled stepping out of the shadows.
"Little Toshiuro!" Both Renji and Ichigo yelled at the small young male that came out of the shadows earning a twitch of the boy's eyebrow.
"That's Captain Hitzugaia to you!" the boy with spiky snow white hair yelled glaring at the two in front of him.
"….a kid?" Yoruichi said looking dumbfounded. "…. Like Hell I'm listening to a kid of what eight!"
"Hey, I understand the dumbasses being in your little gang…" Kuukaku said pointing at Ichigo and Renji "…but what's the deal with the kid?"
"HEY!" Ichigo and Renji yelled before getting pulled into a choke hold by Kenpachi stopping the two from acting out.
"I'm not eight!" Hitzugaia mumbled under his breath eyebrow twitching. "I'm fifteen."
"Do not let his appearance fool you, he might seem like just a child to you, but he is highly intelligent and has earned the title of Captain." Byakuaya said looking at the two in front of him.
"Besides, Soi was much younger than the kid when she became a Captain." Kenpachi said.
"So very true." Byakuaya said nodding his head, then looking at Yoruichi. "We understand your feelings in this situation, but you must listen to what we say for your own safety."
"It's in the best interest for everyone." Hitzuagaia said to Yoruichi.
"At the very least we do need to get everything ready…." Byakuaya said looking toward Hitzuagaia. "Hitzuagaia is everything set up?"
"Indeed." The spiky snow white hair boy said nodding his head. "I've even bought a few extra hands just in case."
"Not scared are ya kid?" Kenpachi said with a crooked grin forming on his face.
"Not quite, though it is better to be safe than sorry." Hituzuagai said raising an eyebrow in response.
"True, especially in this situation," Byakuaya said nodding his head in agreement, "…. so who did you bring with you?"
"Oh, just someone to get the job done." A voice said behind the snow white hair kid.
"Not to mention someone to add some beauty to the group." A flamboyant voice sounded through the dark.
"HEY!" Matsumotto said looking at the one who spoke behind them.
"How is she Szayel?" Aizen asked the pink haired bespectacled man inspecting the unconscious Soi Fong.
"Well, it looks like she has a nasty bruise, a nice size knot, and not to mention the small laceration that only needed a couple of stitches on her head, but besides that nothing too serious. I'll be able to tell if there is anything else wrong when she wakes up." The pink haired man said standing up flipping his hair and adjusting his glasses.
"So, she will wake up?" Aizen said looking at the woman on the bed.
"Of course my lord there's no doubt about that." The pink haired man said looking over his shoulder at his boss.
"That's good to know…" Aizen said turning to walk out of the room. "….Halibel if you want you can stay with her but I would advise not touching her again and maybe the removal of her chains. After all she is our guest now."
"Y Yes sir!" Halibel said shocked that she was being allowed to stay in the room with the beautiful half naked woman.
"Oh and Halibel when she starts to show signs of waking up come and inform me immediately. Is that clear?"
"Yes Sir!" Halibel said bowing a little before walking to the unconscious woman.
"Oh, and have someone put a chance of clothes on her. Can't have her distracting you anymore than she already has, now can we?' Aizen said walking out of the door followed by Szayel.
"Yes Sir." Halibel said in a defeated voice.
"I'm only stating the obvious." The flamboyant voice said stepping out into the light, revealing a man with black hair and what looked to be red and yellow feathers attached to his eye for decoration.
"As if, Yumichika! I have more beauty in my little finger, than you have in your entire body!" Matsumoto yelled at the flamboyant man.
"Will you two stop arguing. We have things we need to do." The first man's voice spoke up stepping into the light as well revealing a bald headed man with red marks on the corner of his eyes.
"Whatever you say, Ikkaku." The flamboyant man said turning to his companion.
"Now, if we can get back to the plan." Hitsugaya said turning toward the small gathering. "As, I was saying before you and friends will stay here with protection of course. Abarai, Kurosaki, and Matsumoto will stay with you here. No one outside of us knows it's location." Hitsugaya said to Yoruichi.
"What, why do we have to stay!" Renji and Ichigo both yelled in unison.
"I don't know what you two are complaining about, you're getting to spend time with us beautiful women!" Matsumoto said with a bounce in her step and her normal cheery voice causing her voluminous breast to bounce along with her words, immediately causing the two arguing men to shut up.
"She does have a point." Ichigo and Renji said to each other and responding quickly to the young captain in unison. "Whatever you say captain!"
"Like I said before I'm not staying, while my little bee is in trouble!" Yoruichi yelled.
"I'm afraid you don't have a choice in this matter. Firstly you don't know what we are about to run into. Secondly you don't have the skills or the training to be able to survive and not prove a hindrance to our plans." Byakuya said before Hitsugaya could respond.
"What if I can prove myself. True, I might not have the skills or the training that you lot have, but I do have a little martial arts training under my belt, so I won't be a hindrance to you!"
"Mm, if you can prove that you won't get yourself killed, then we might be able to let you tag along as long as you don't jump into the middle of the battle." Hitsugaya said with a hand on his chin thinking. "Ikkaku, how about you test her skills for us?"
"With great pleasure." Ikkaku said stepping forward popping his knuckles.
"Just take it outside." Byakuya and Hitsugaya both said in unison. "Matsumoto, will be the judge." Hitsugaya said with a pointed look to the cheery woman.
"Gotcha, Cappy!" She said bouncing towards the back door with Ikkaku and Yoruichi following behind her.
"Great." Yoruichi mumbled under her breath before her arm was grabbed by Kuukaku.
"Hey, do you think this is a great idea, Yoruichi?" Kuukaku whispered into her ear.
"Not really, but it's the only way to be able to look for Soi." Yoruichi said pulling away from Kuukaku's grip. Leaving Kuukaku behind shaking her head with her and Kisuke following behind Yoruichi outside along with Ichigo and Renji.
"Now that the children are out of the way we can start the actual plans." Byakuya said with Kenpaichi nodding his head in agreement.
Halibel sat in a chair watching, now a fully clothed and unchained Soi Fong while she slept, when she notice Soi start to stir. "I have to go fetch his lordship!" She said running as fast as she could towards Aizen's office.
A/N: Well, everyone that is the chapter, that I had started years ago and kind of forgotten that I had started it, if anyone is still interested in this story I do have more chapters written for it and hopefully will have the story come to an end soon.
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed reading this new chapter from an ancient story that is trying to rise from the ashes of the past and hopefully you guys will review because all reviews are welcome even flames.
