We had landed into Aizen's smaller Throne Room, that was still too huge to even be considered as a 'room', and contained a low flight of stairs, one chair and one remarkable background of Hueco Mundo. But we weren't the only ones in the room. Ichimaru Gin on the left, Kaname Tousen on the far corner right and surprisingly Szayel Aporro to the right of his Lord. The room was filled with a wary and suffocating atmosphere. Whatever was going to happen, we definitely weren't expecting nor ready for.

"The Hogyokou..." Aizen began as he slowly pulls out the crystallized dark-purple orb and holds it up between his index and thumb to us. "The moment 'presences' passing the Garganta were detected, the Hogyokou began to stir. At the exact moment where those 'presences' had arrived, it stirred immensely causing the containment of it to disperse. To our surprise, as we entered the room in which you lovely young ladies had been, the Hogyokou stimulated and reacted overwhelmingly." Aizen glared hard as if trying to see through us, "It was a wise idea of mine to have given you the Hogyokou to prove my speculation in which you are the ones who have caused it to break from its dormant state." he continued.

The ex-Shinigami Captain was definitely waiting for us to explain but I was rolling possible endings in my head on things I would say; but it all leads to us getting our heads chopped off. Whether I told nothing but innocence or the complete truth there's no way they would buy it.
Aizen closes his eyes, "Szayel Aporro, care to share your investigation into this?" it was more of an impatient order but Szayel still acted coolly.

"Yes, Lord Aizen," he clears his throat, "I have recorded their spiritual pressure data from the moment they arrived on my operating lab, and it is... quite puzzling." this sentence earned a raised brow from Aizen and from me as well. "When they had landed their emitting reiatsu levels was unique and inconsistent that was shifting at each second and for some unknown reason, they are only detectable to us as common souls therefore we found them as of 'no threat'. But on their time at confinement one reached a reiatsu break elapsing the Tres' Resurrectión highest approximated reiatsu, as well as the time one held the Hogyokou…"

'Bullshit.' I would've called out. Are they saying we're some kind of retards that caused the Hogyokou to 'break from its dormant state' or… something about the ' Tres' Resurrectión' reiatsu… what? Szayel stated other facts about us to Aizen but he completely lost me on the rest. I stopped listening and kept my confused expression on as I began to stare at the characters in front of us instead, especially to this one specific pink-haired, deep amber-eyed character.

I know I was suppose to focus on the situation and all but I didn't get what Szayel had been saying! All I know is that he sounds great and looks hot. My eyes agreed since they wouldn't stop scanning him up and down. It's just so unbelievable that he, (and also the rest of them), are there; talking… and looking as hot as ever. Dammit… I should have brought a camera with me.

The pink-haired Espada had been flicking through his clipboard back and forth and mumbled to Aizen a few further details. Gin had been smirking and said "OOOH YAAAAAH~" at one time, most probably from the confusing relayed information. From the looks of it, Aizen was getting awfully impatient with all this.

"Explain. Younha, Yui." Lord Aizen was so close to popping a vein or chopping our heads off. Ugh. I can't take this truck-load of crap anymore! I'm tired of hearing these intense and extensive Bleach terms; I regret not studying all these on Wikipedia when I had the chance. I honestly can't explain our emitting reiatsu because I didn't even know we were emitting any! And as for the Hogyokou, what the fuckery is it? That piece of marble is completely annoying. I've had it with this room! I wanna get outta here and explore Bleach Universe right now, dammit! I clenched my fists beside me and prepared myself.

"Fine." I growled. "We'll tell you the truth..." Kaye gasped behind me knowing this was the worst idea that's been pulled out of my ass. We could easily lie to them again and be all innocent - but they'll definitely find out the truth one way or another. And besides, what's the worst they could do powerless, adorable, little girls~? Wait, I'm kidding, don't answer that.

"The truth is... Kaye and I... aren't from here."

And that was it. I told them pretty much everything from how we got here to how we know so much about them. Though, I may have exaggerated a little (a lot) on saying we're from a 'parallel world' and that we've been watching them for a long time now and we know what happens to the future of this universe. The opposing four across could not keep their jaws attached. Their reactions looked so hilarious I was trembling in hesitation from bursting out my laughter.

I've been the one explaining the most and Kaye only said a few short words to back me up. I kept talking and waiting for someone to shut me up or decapitate us but they were all just dumbfounded. I paused a few seconds to make up other things to say in my head until Gin chuckled, then froze.

"Yer not kiddin', are ya?" Gin's sly grin was slowly fading.

Kaye shook her head, "Nope."

Well, I believe I have said enough so I stopped talking since no one had the common courtesy to silence me. Everyone across us had been quiet. Presumably thinking through what I said, which were mostly true.

Tousen had grumbled the word "Absurd," and Szayel pushed his glasses back to the bridge of his nose and collected himself. Aizen hadn't move from his position of one arm on the chair and his head resting on the back of his fingers. Guess that was all the reaction they could make.

'Gaaaah! Someone stop the awkward silence!' I was so close to running out the door with Kaye but Aizen finally managed to talk.

"So you are not whom you first introduced as Younha and Yui, but are Rie and Kaye?" I raised a brow at his question. 'Is that all he got from what I just said?'

"Uh, yes. That was a joke. Sorry." Aizen nodded, satisfied with the answer. He somehow guessed my mixed reaction from his question.

"I had presumed you two must have been familiar with us since your words and acts throughout held no fear," he pointed out.
My eyes bulked open, 'Wow, we fail, huh?' and here I thought we had nailed that shenanigan.

"This anecdote of a 'parallel world' in which you speak of does sound promising, but before we get to that-" Aizen slowly stood up from his seat.

"Rie, Kaye, I have a proposition for you. Join me and my fellow comrades and reveal to us what you have seen into the future of this world, or, be killed where you stand."

"... Any other available choices?" I queried.

"Decide at once."

"O-Okay okay!" I turned back to Kaye behind me and gave her a doubtful look. She cheerfully smiled knowing that I'd pick the obvious.

"We-We'll join you, Lord Aizen…" I dropped one knee to the ground and lowered my head down, imitating a servant-master pose. Kaye followed my actions while uttering a 'yes'.

"Lord Aizen, you cannot-" Tousen retaliated.

Aizen raised his hand, "We will treat them as a comrade but with specialty. We will keep them under watch and if they so happen they are not whom they seem to be then we will not hold back on disposing them. Do we understand one another, Rie and Kaye?" Our names carried a hint of distaste.

I kept myself composed and bowed once more. "We're forever yours, faithfully, Lord Aizen Sosuke," that was so typical suck-up right there. But I wasn't planning on getting killed on my first day of the job as being an Arrancar. 'SWEET!', I had butterflies all over and I couldn't wait to roam around Las Noches and be all pimp with other Arrancars! Not now though, right now I was focusing on composing my face that way it doesn't look like its creakily smiling.

Aizen directed to Szayel that he would be doing a full examination on our physical features to complete his research but first off he had to lead us back to another cell since the one we were suppose to stay in before is currently in construction. Kaye and I just shrugged to each other and followed Szayel through the halls. 'Wheeee~ Szayel's back is so well-framed,' I grinned.

Kaye poked at my sides, "Oi," she whispered. I blinked and slightly turned behind to Kaye who was walking close. "Whaddup?" Kaye smirked. She wasn't exactly asking about my well-being in slang but more of a shortened message that should say 'Could you believe what kind of crap just happened then? The things you said really got them good and now look at us; we're Arrancars! This is totally awesome!' Trust me; if you've known the person for most of your life you develop one word codes that say a hundred words.

"Right?" I smirked back. We were too busy exchanging telepathic looks that I hadn't noticed Szayel stopping the march and I bumped onto his back. "Waaah!" I yelped and stumbled a few steps behind.

The Octava turned right around and glared at us. "Look here. You two are nothing more than tools of information to Lord Aizen. And if you so happen to be showing a speck of suspicion I have been ordered to destroy you both without a second thought, so I suggest you save your absurdity and follow."

Kaye and I momentarily looked at one another in surprise to Szayel's sudden outburst. Then we looked back to him with a huge grin on our faces.

"Understood. Octava Espada; Szayel Aporro Grantz~" we replied in unison.

"Tch." Szayel twitched his furrowed brows and stomped off ahead of us. I guess his uncertainty towards us is making him agitated. Hell, it felt good to piss off a member of the Espada though especially one that makes a hot reaction out of a simple tease. His fumed reaction was just so adorable! Kaye saw my melted smile and radiating bliss so she playfully bumped my sides with her hips. My best friend smiled and stuck her tongue out as she jogged to catch up to Szayel.

I chuckled to myself, a flash of the past popping up which made me remember the time when Kaye and I were still in kindergarten and she would recklessly go and be the first one out to play on the playground at recess. She would yell from the top of the playground for me to join her and would eagerly tell me to 'hurry up'. Her long brown hair would sway along with her as she flailed her arms in the air to show where she was calling from and she never would move from that spot till I got there.

"Rie!" blinking, "Hurry up or we'll leave you!" Kaye hollered out while waving her left arm in the air. Kaye and Szayel had stopped a few meters away and irritably waited for me. I chuckled again, 'Bleach, huh?... This is gonna be awesome!" I sprinted up to them.
