Aizen paced the floor. He was so angry that everyone knew to stay away from him. He picked up the note from his desk and read over the note again.

'We will hold her until after the Blood Moon. We know why you want her. But we want her more.'

Aizen balled the note and threw it across the room. The note hit Tosen as he walked into the office. He knew that Aizen was upset about this turn of events. He found a chair and sat. He wanted for his friend to speak.

"How could I have let that incompetent guard lose my lovely Gin," he yelled at Tosen. He continued to pace back and forth. "I have to get her back."

Tosen sat quietly as Aizen rant and raved for a few minutes more. He knew his friend would wear himself out and then he would be open to hear what is needed to said. A few minutes later, he calmed down.

"Aizen, have you spoken to anyone about this note?" Tosen knew that now that Aizen had calmed down he could think things through.

"No, I have not mentioned the note to anyone. I was hoping it was a joke but since it was found on Sui Feng person, I told her not to mention it to anyone. I felt that she did a piss poor job protecting Gin."

Tosen spoke again. "Whoever did this, knew of Gin's value. The Blood Moon is coming soon and as you know there were only seven women who can get pregnant. Six know their position and are well protected but Gin was not. Gin was out in the open and you found her. You only had one job to do and it was to get her pregnant. Our scientist, Dr. Kurotsuchi told you that between the Blood Moon appearances, he would need the blood from a pregnant Gin. He would make a vaccine that will let us decide who and when a woman can have children. Imagine something out of the reach for most women and the ones who can afford it, will pay a nice penny for it. We know what is needed for this vaccine because we made the original vaccine." Tosen paused to get Aizen focused again. "So, tell me Aizen, who outside of us, who else knew the importance of Gin?"

Aizen took a deep breath and started to go through things in his mind. He stood and walked to the wall. He looked over the city and became angry. "Urahara, Dr. Kisuke Urahara," Aizen yelled out.

As the hand reached out for Gin's shoulder, she stopped and turned.

"Gina, what's wrong? You look awful. Are you okay?"

Gin looked at the person. "Renji," Gin was breathing hard, "Why did you do that to me?" Gin started crying as he reached out and hugged her.

"I told them this would be hard on you but you did it. We did it." Renji continued to hug Gin until she calmed down. "Now, go over there and change. Take those damn contacts out."

Gin started to go in the woods when she smiled. "Where is your crew?"

Renji smiled and called out. "Oh Merry Men!"

Out of trees and from bushes, three of Renji's group came out: Love Aikawa, Rojuro Otoribashi and Lisa Yadomaru. They were not only childhood friends but also part of the group that was trying to bring Aizen down. Renji knew to call them the 'merry men' because 'Shrek' was one of Gin's favorite movie and that part of Robin Hood and The Merry Men would always bring a smile on Gin's face.

They hugged Gin and told her to hurry up and change because they were waiting for her at the first check point.

Gin changed to his favorite dress. Her Gothic outfit with fake piercings.

Renji smiled and stated that he likes when Gin dresses normal.

They continued to the first check point.

When they arrived at the house, Love wen to the door and knocked. A series of even and odd group of knocks. The door opened and an elderly woman opened the door. She looked at him and smiled.

"Did you bring dessert for me, Son?" the woman spoke the sentence.

"That is the one thing I forgot but I did remember to bring the rest of the list," Love replied.

The woman smiled. She opened the door as Love gave the old woman a kiss and came into the house. The others followed after Love and gave the woman a kiss on the cheek. Then Renji walked to her and stood to the side. The old woman smiled so hard when she saw Gin. Gin ran to her and hugged her very hard. She started crying as the old woman reached out to Renji.

"You said you would bring your sister home, Renji. You told me that you would not let anything happen to her. You are a good grandson."

Renji hugged them both and helped them get in the house.

Gin cried with her grandmother as they went into the sitting room. She placed her hands on Gin's face and kissed her. They continued to hug.

Renji walked to the group that had gathered in the kitchen. They were on a secure line doing a video conference with Shinji Hirako., leader of their group. He instructed them that Gin got out on day sooner than planned but they would give them an extra day for them to see how Aizen would react. He stated that he was glad Gin was okay and that the protection of Gin is still on high alert.

Gin started to yawn as she and her grandmother spoke. She told her to go and take a shower and go to bed. Your brother will not let anyone get to you.

After Gin showered and got in her bed, the one thing she was missing was her stuffed koi. It was a gift Renji gave her when he went to his first fair. Although Gin is a few years older than Renji, she always called him her big brother. As Gin started to calm down, a light knock was at the door.

"Come in, Renji," Gin called out.

Renji walked in and sat on the bed. Gin started crying again. Renji knew why Gin was upset. She was in love. He hugged her and let her cry.

"I know it hurts but I think he will come for you. From what we checked out that group is part of The Alliance. I think they got lucky when you came along but they were going after Aizen but we got their first. The guy, Byakuya, he is legit and I think they would not come after you until you got out. They are moving their operation. But I think they may run interference for us with Aizen."

Renji looked at Gin who had fell asleep in his arms. "You rest now, Sis, we will take from here."

Kyoraku was in his office sipping tea with Ukitake. He was lost in his thought about Byakuya. His office was almost packed and they were ready to move out. He knew that if Aizen did not call, Byakuya was going after Gin.

"Don't worry, darling, he is going to call." Ukitake continued to drink his tea as if he knew the call was going to come. He too was thinking that Byakuya would go after Gin which would be a big mistake because Aizen could be watching him if he suspects Gin would be in touch with him.

Ring

After a minute, the buzzer sounded on Kyoraku's phone. He picked it up and heard Rukia announce that Mr. Aizen was on line one. Then he heard a Click.

"Mr. Aizen, Mr. Kyoraku here, did we forget something with our termination of services?"

"No, no," Aizen said, "I was hoping to ask you for a favor. Now what I going to tell you is that this has not hit the news." He paused as to keep his composure. "Gin is missing."

Kyoraku was quiet for a few moments and cleared his throat. Let me get Ukitake in my office. He was closer to Gin then me." He place Aizen on hold.

Ukitake got up and called Byakuya into the room. He explained to Byakuya what was going on and they both walked in and stat down.

Kyoraku took the phone off hold. "I have returned with Ukitake. You can ask him questions."

"Mr. Aizen, Gin never said anything about leaving, in fact, she was real excited about the wedding. She even asked me to walk her down the aisle. I was honored to be given the task. I told Gin that we were going to our next job but we would back two weeks before to help him celebrate her union with you."

Ukitake stopped. Byakuya had grabbed his hand. He smiled at Byakuya because he gave him to look of being strong. Kyoraku took over the conversation.

"Mr. Aizen I do have to ask this question. Is Gin in any danger now?"

Aizen did not say anything at first but then he spoke, "Gin was marrying me because she did not want anything from me. Just love."

"Have you had anyone contact you since she went missing?" Kyoraku asked and waited for his answer.

"No," he hesitated, "no one had made contact. I do want to ask if it is possible to get your assistance in this matter."

Kyoraku sat back and smiled. It is just what he wanted Aizen to ask. "Mr. Aizen, I am under another contract but what I can do is ask Mr. Kuchiki to bring a few of his associates to your office in the morning to help start you investigation but he can only give you no more than a couple of days. He and his group is a very intricate part of our next operation. I would send Rangiku but she has left already and I need her truly focused on her assignment but I will let her know."

Aizen wanted them back to see if they had anything to do with Gin disappearance. "Well, my security staff will appreciate any help you can offer. Thank You." Aizen hung up.

Aizen stood and asked for Head of Security. He needs to find out where my security broke down. "I need Gin back now."

Kyoraku, Ukitake and Byakuya walked into the security room. Rukia and Ichigo had so many file opened from Gin that it needed it flash drives.

"Gin really had had a lot of good files. Financial, personal and also housing and pictures. Aizen has been a bad boy. I have made back up of all the files because with Cyanide, I know that a self-destruct timer on it." Rukia said it just as she looked at her computer and the files started to disappear.

Kyoraku started barking out orders. "Rangiku, take Ukitake, Momo, Rukia and Ichigo, find out where Gin is and go to her. We got to find her before Aizen get any idea where to look. Her group will let you in. Byakuya, Kira and Hisagi, I will put you on Aizen detail. Two day at the most, then go Gin. Hitsugaya and his team are already on recon. Everyone else I need for you to be out by tonight."

Kyoraku turned and went to his office. Byakuya followed him to his office.

"I know you wanted to go find Gin now but I have a feeling that Aizen will be following you. You have the task of convincing him that you have not had any contact with her," Kyoraku smiled at Byakuya hoping he follow orders.

Byakuya nodded and bowed to his elders.

Ukitake came into the office and sat on the desk facing Kyoraku. "What is on your mind, Shunsui?"

"You know the Blood Moon story? Gin mentioned it to Byakuya. He thought it was strange Gin told him the story. It also appeared in the files from Aizen. The files says Gin never took the vaccine. If that is the case . . ."

Ukitake jumped up. "Gin could be pregnant by . . ."

"That is why I am sending you to find Gin and protect her and get her to the designated place. To Dr. Kisuke Urahara location.
