Author Notes: Super short chapter, but super important. In fact this may just be the most confusing chapter yet, I recommend everyone either review their conclusions or pm me directly because I seriously doubt anyone's going to get this the first time.

Enjoy!

...

Ulquiorra paced around his room, a frown marring his expression as his mind whirled.

His vision regarding Urahara Kisuke had come true. Down to the last detail.

Well.

All but one.

Urahara Kisuke hadn't mentioned this Aizen Sosuke in his vision.

His name had been shrouded.

He'd never heard it until he'd seen Grantz's fifth felony today... And given what he'd already seen there, the 4th +Espada had no intention of alerting anyone, but that was neither here nor there. He was more worried about the stranger.

The same man who also just happen to be directly responsible for derailing his vision surrounding his leader.

Ulquiorra stopped on his feet, his eyes narrowing in the process.

That meant for whatever reason, he couldn't see this Aizen Sosuke...

Naturally.

Ulquiorra quickly grabbed hold of his right eye, his reiatsu quickly putting a hole in time and space, before he shoved his arm in once again.

That meant he simply had to try.

...

His eye had never closed, even mid the spiritual travel to the nearest point surrounding his chosen target. Of course that meant he'd noticed the subtle differences immediately.

Ulquiorra narrowed his eyes, his second having already grown back, as he noticed the time difference.

Too long.

He knew he was to meet the man again soon, he could feel it. Yet his vision was showing something that was months into the future. He quickly turned to find the aforementioned captain, noticing for the first time, the second man in the small room.

The captain-commander himself. The two were currently sat around a small chess set. The brown haired captain sat ramrod straight, oozing pure confidence. His expression almost terrifying.

"I see, I am not entirely surprised Captain Aizen could switch himself like that... Nor that he went through with it," The commander spoke up, quickly attracting Ulquiorra's attention quickly causing him to frown further in confusion as he wondered what that could possibly mean... Why would the old man refer to him like-

"Yes, Sosuke-kun decided it best he simply pretended to join them in my place," Aizen Sosuke, for it could not be anyone else! stated, an evil glint forming in his eye.

Yamamoto appraised Aizen Sosuke's sudden move with a keen look, before he raised his head back up. "I am so glad he has such a serious Zanpakuto spirit,"

What. Ulquiorra couldn't help the thought.

Not Aizen Sosuke? Nodded his head once before a terrifying grin formed on the man's face.

"They will suffer,"

Yamamoto didn't skip the beat. "Yes... Yes they will," The old man calmly moved his piece before adding on words that only worsened the expression on the +Espada's face.

"Better them than us,"

Ulquiorra promptly decided that was enough as he hurried back onto his body, his mind focused on the fact he'd provoked a fight with this demonic being's master.

He really should've taken Josh Groban's fight with the shinigami for a hint, but no, he just had to go and act like Eren of all Hollows-

Ulquiorra twitched the slightest when he realised that despite all of that, his vision hadn't actually showed him Aizen Sosuke himself...

...

Don't forget feedback! And yup, Ulquiorra ain't known for his spoilers for nothing! Everyone will suffer at his hands.
