Chapter 5:
"Camelot fell?" Aizen asked.
"The knights of the round too?" Gin asked next.
"Yes and yes." Karura said taking another sip of her drink.
Karura walked up and got on Aizen's horse sitting behind him.
"I got to get off my feet." She said making him annoyed.
"I should kill you right here and now." Aizen said.
"Why can't we?" Granz asked.
"Because she already has us where she wants us." Aizen said.
"What-" Granz began to ask.
"Enough, I'll explain later." Aizen said.
"Your friends are curious, I can tell them." Karura said.
Suddenly lightning shot from the ground up and over them like a cage and suddenly began to shrink until fading back into the ground.
"That's why." Karura said.
"And she is resistant to her own lightning." Aizen said.
"Question comes to mind, how do you two know one another?" Kisame asked.
"Did you two fuck?" Gin asked.
"Gin!" Aizen shouted.
"He probably wanted too." Karura said.
"Bah!? No!" Aizen shouted.
"Really who is she?" Itachi asked.
"She and I knew one another back when we were teenagers. She was always a bitch-" Aizen began to say.
"Is a bitch still." Karura corrected.
"Is a bitch and searches for power in any way she can and without a care for anyone's lives. She would even kill her own parents-" Aizen said.
"Did kill parents." Karura corrected.
"Why don't you then explain it." Aizen said.
"Of course make the woman work for it why don't you. Your friend here is right, I am a bitch who gets what she wants whenever she wants." Karura said with a shrug and took another sip.
"Can you get off this horse." Aizen said.
"Let me finish. So I met Aizen when we were teenagers back at Ashdale. A city in the sky that you guy's I heard conquered recently. So I bugged the little idiot here and he was searching for power and ruling like me! Except he made friends- how adorable!" Karura said.
Aizen just grumbled something.
"What is it you want." Aizen asked.
"I'll cut to the chase. I am here to make a request. You have three more regions to take control of but you know you won't take mine. However, if you say can take the Fremennik Isle's then perhaps I might think about just a partnership, not me selling out to you." Karura said.
Aizen just stared at her not saying anything.
"You said three regions, yours and the Isle's but what's the third?" Granz asked.
"You don't mean..." Gin began to say.
"The Elves." Karura said.
"Elves?" Granz asked.
"Elves keep to themselves in their region and never leave. They are the oldest living race as well as the first race known to have originated on this planet." Gin said.
"And you and I both know the Elves will never let you rule them and you know I won't. So you got those Isle's if you want them." Karura said.
Aizen's breathing was starting to speed up now realizing the roadblock he was going to face.
"Tell you what. A year from now we will talk about a partnership perhaps." Karura said.
"A year?" Aizen asked.
"Well, I wouldn't mind for you to be a father for a few months." Karura said.
Aizen tilted his head frowning.
"What?" Aizen asked.
Gin looked back and forth not saying nothing.
"Oh, you don't know? I have a spy who told me that they overheard that redhead and this guy beside you with the white-silver hair discussing her pregnancy!" Karura said clapping.
Kisame then began to clap.
"Congrats Aizen! I'll be sure to throw you a baby shower!" Kisame said.
Aizen kept his attention on Karura before looking at Gin quickly.
Gin gulped.
"Oh? No one told you?" Karura asked patting his shoulder.
"I told her it was her place to tell you." Gin said.
"Who else knew." Aizen asked.
"Aizen." Gin said.
"Who else knew!" Aizen shouted.
"Konan and Harribel I think and probably Stork." Gin said.
Aizen put a hand over his face breathing slowly now.
Karura took another sip of tapioca and got off the horse patting its side.
"A year and we can discuss things. I may be a bitch but I ain't that bad. I want you to think long and hard because if you do decide to go to war with me, then you might lose. I can't say I'll win since I can't see the future but what I can tell you is you should at least see your kid being born and spend some time with it before we discuss things. I'm doing you a favor." Karura said.
Aizen kept quiet.
Karura looked at him then to the others and gave a wave.
"I will see you all later. You all are welcome to come into the Kandarin Region for fun if you like! Be sure to stop by Ardougne, you might see me and heck I might give you an autograph!" Karura said.
"Wait!" Kisame shouted getting off his horse.
Kisame ran up and handed her a Shark Weekly magazine.
"Can you sign this for me while you are here?" Kisame asked.
Karura took it and using her lightning power on her finger she burned her initials in it and handed it back.
"Aww thank you!" Kisame said hugging her.
Karura blinked a few times but didn't hug back.
"You know that was your chance to strike me but you didn't. You got to teach your people how to kill Aizen." Karura said.
"Oh I can't kill you, you are so nice!" Kisame said snuggling the magazine to himself.
"I thought you said the medicine was out of his system?" Gin asked.
"At this point, I don't know." Itachi said.
Karura gave a wave to them and walked behind the thick trees nearby.
"Well wasn't that fun." Granz said.
"Yeah and creepy- Aizen you okay?" Nnoitra asked.
"I need to think for just a minute." Aizen said.
Suddenly they all felt a rumble and Kisame quickly got on his horse.
They looked at the trees that Karura walked into and rising was a battle airship lifting off behind them and headed toward the west.
"Woah that thing is big!" Nnoitra shouted.
"Come on let's go." Aizen said.
Aizen left first while the others quickly rode off to follow him.
Itachi looked back at the airship leaving and then head forward.
"Kisame, when you hugged her what was her chakra like?" Itachi asked.
"To be honest it felt- well, it felt lonely." Kisame said.
"Lonely?" Itachi asked.
"Yeah, just that sense of loneliness from her chakra. It was so strange, I don't know how powerful she is but only an emotion." Kisame said.
Aizen hearing that looking up at the sky and back forward.
"Men when we reach the castle can you give me and Jessica a moment, please? We will be in the kitchen." Aizen said.
"Of course!" Granz said.
"Gin, I want to talk to you however first." Aizen said.
"Trouble!" Kisame chuckled.
"Want to be fried calamari?" Gin asked.
"Let's not say that around the Mon Calamari tribe." Itachi said.
Aizen pointed to the nearby border wall of Varrock and he and Gin rode off next too it while the others headed into Varrock.
"I know you are-" Gin began to say.
"I'm not mad I am nervous." Aizen said.
"You aren't mad at me?" Gin asked.
"You were right to tell her she has to tell me herself. Right now I don't know what to think, a child? Gin I can't be a father." Aizen said.
"Well, I'll tell you what I told Jessica. Talk to one another." Gin said.
"What is your suggestion though?" Aizen asked.
"My suggestion is to talk to her. I can't speak my mind about this because I never had a kid." Gin said.
Aizen was pacing and Gin got off his horse next patting his shoulder.
"Calm down it will be fine. We are all here to help." Gin said.
Aizen nodded and patted Gin's shoulder and got back on the horse.
"I met an old friend that was in the same training course as me when I was young." Gin said.
"Oh?" Aizen asked.
"He was a Bount." Gin said.
"And I take it you killed him." Aizen said.
Gin just nodded.
"How close of a friend was he?" Aizen asked.
"We only knew one another for a year. A shame." Gin said.
"Tell you what Gin, a year. A year we shall take to ourselves until we speak to Karura next." Aizen said.
"Are you really thinking of invading Kandarin?" Gin asked.
"I am going to work my words and persuade her to allow all of Kandarin under Varrocks banner." Aizen said.
"And if it doesn't work?" Gin asked.
"Then it leads to war sadly." Aizen said.
"If we win the war we got the final challenge if we are to rule the planet." Gin said.
"The Elves land." Aizen said.
"Elves are usually above six feet tall so height may not be a problem but their intelligence and mastery of blades and arrows will be." Gin said.
Suddenly Aizen's linkpearl was ringing and he answered it holding a finger up to Gin to wait.
"Yes?" Aizen asked.
"Sir we got a problem. We can't find Gold Saw's body." Stork said.
"What do you mean?" Aizen asked.
Suddenly a line of dark energy flew right at them and Aizen and Gin jumped from the horses before the horses both got sliced in half.
Aizen and Gin got their swords out and seen Gold Saw walking toward them with her head attached but with a black mist around her neck and a dark red glow from the line around her neck that was cut.
"How the hell?" Aizen asked confused.
"I told you I will do anything to rule." Gold Saw said.
"She's using a strange aether." Gin said.
"I can sense her reiatsu too. I guess she is more than what we thought." Aizen said.
The two of them swung their blades at Gold Saw who swung her large one against both of them and then kicked Gin away while elbowing Aizen in the face and kicking him onto the ground.
Gold Saw went to stab her blade at Aizen only for her weapon to be pushed away by Gins and the two made a brief sword fight till Aizen got up and swung his blade toward her back and she spun around with her blade extended to slash their blades away and cut their sides.
"Aizen she's-" Gin began to say.
Gold Saw slashed at Gin's chest making some blood squirt out and making him fall back.
"Gin!" Aizen shouted.
Suddenly Aizen was stabbed through his chest out of his back and pinned into the ground.
"I am a master of dark aether, capable of surviving beheading for a short amount of time. The aether attached my head back and as you can see is still healing that zone of my body. You should have burned me in fire." Gold Saw said with a wide grin on her face.
Gin slowly got up and activated his swords ability that extended out and through Gold Saw's back out of her chest.
Gold Saw grinned and once his sword retracted she turned around swinging her blade down at him only for it to clash against a metal pole that stabbed into the ground beside Gin like a barrier.
Gold Saw looked up seeing Nnoitra with the hilt of his weapon in the ground and lifted it.
His weapon being two crescent-shaped blades on one end of a black pole connected by a chain.
Gold Saw swung her blade at him a few times until he used his blades' unique trait to curve around hers and swung right into her arm cutting it off.
"Hm!?" Gold Saw thought and noticed her other arm now gone.
"Now both of your arms are gone bitch!" Nnoitra shouted.
Nnoitra focused his reiatsu on the tip of his tongue, creating a Cero and shot it at Gold Saw covering her entire body and vaporizing her completely.
"Oh thank god..." Aizen said and then passed out.
