I hope the story is satisfactory for everyone so far. Renji and the other Shinigami will come into play later on. For now, enjoy the new world and new OCs.
Chapter 1:
Bless Me With Your Love
Izuru had finally had some time to himself, away from the mess he had been drug into. He felt bad slightly for wanting to be away from his former lover, seeing as how he had been nothing but kind and gentle to him since they were to share a bed, but the small lush garden helped sooth away any and all stress that Aizen's presence made for him. The pale blond smiled ever so slightly as he took a deep breathe, breathing in all the birds of paradise, jasmines, lavenders, roses of Sharon, irises, oriental lilies and any others that wrapped about in the small rather exotic garden. It was very colorful, and the large weeping willows with bits of light seeping through highlighting here and there made for a dense, almost romantic and mystical feeling. Kira sat back in the chrome decorative chair and closed his eyes, relaxing as best as he could in such a situation.
"Kira-kun, may I have your company for awhile?" The rich voice caught Kira off guard and he quickly sat forward and looked up to the man in front of himself. Izuru stared at his new leader with obvious concern. The idea that Aizen had come all the way to that side of the large mansion to ask, no silently command, Kira's presence was rather eerie and unnerving. The blond was unsure how to answer the man before him. He knew he had to go with him, lest he wind up much like Gin was many nights ago.
'My first night in my new life.' – Kira thought with the taste of despair winding up his throat. After a moment Kira nodded silently and got up for his seat at the small table, abandoning his warm cup of honey tea and plate of sugar dumplings. Aizen waited for the youth to come to his side before he gave a warm, albeit unnerving, smile to his newly obtained subordinate. Izuru swallowed as he found the faintest hint of a smile for the man he so deeply wished to murder right then and there. Sousuke lightly patted the youth's left shoulder with his right hand before turning and walking peacefully through the garden on the small stone path that was set to follow a path to the entrance. Izuru followed obediently, his head hung slightly as his mind worked franticly trying to figure what was to happen in his head. Aizen spared a soft glance to the boy following him before facing forward again.
"You like this garden of mine quite a bit, don't you, Kira-kun?" Kira looked up to Aizen's back and then nodded, as he looked distant again.
"Yes, I do. It's very nicely done. Simple… but truly nice." The blond was unsure how to answer without saying something perhaps offensive or too eager. But his answer seemed good enough as the chocolate brown-haired man said nothing more as they reached the wide arched doorway and left the place Kira had made his own little sanction as of late. The two Shinigami made their way down the mansion's halls that had a window here or there with large, satin drapes hung dramatically over the long windows. All white walls and maroon satin in the hall as the elder man came to a stop a large square door to his right. He turned to Izuru who had also stopped, obediently waiting to be told what to do. Sousuke smiled as he opened the door and gestured for his subordinate to go inside. Slightly gnawing at the inside of his lower lip Kira nodded once again as he entered the room, Aizen smiling as he, too, followed suite, closing the door behind them.
Ichimaru had an uneasy gut-retching feeling as he came back to his room. He had felt bad leaving Izuru alone, he knew he shouldn't have but when Aizen gives specific orders to leave your lover behind you did so. But the fact Aizen had ordered him to leave Kira… Gin wanted to get to Kira as soon as his gimp would allow possible. As he neared the arched doorframe he grasped the handle in his right hand, twisting it letting his door fall open to the deserted room. The silver-haired man began to feel the tightening in his chest that called forth panic.
"Izuru? You in here..?" Gin hopelessly called out at the empty room. His mind reeled for the worse and he went to the bed, roughly pulling the thick covers back revealing what his mind was alreading screaming at him. Izuru was not there in the place Gin had left him sleeping with content. He placed a hand on the smooth fabric and felt across it, helplessly wanting there to be a hint of warmth that his beloved had simply gone to eat or to the restroom. But the silk was as cold as the laugh that sounded behind him at the door. Gin turned, now angered at his leader. "Where the Hell is he? Why'd 'ya take him, dammit!?"
Gin's head snapped to the left, the deep burn of a rough hand laid across his smooth skin of his cheek. Aizen gave him a slight look of disapproval that sent Gin into a faint stupor. Slowly Sousuke smoothed his hands over Gin's shoulders and then lightly ghosted them over his arms down to his hands. Gin jerked slightly at the feeling of Aizen lacing his fingers between his own, finger-by-finger on each hand until they were effectively 'holding hands'. The silver-haired man dared an unnerved glance to his once loved teacher catching his eyes. Aizen smiled warmly again. It always made Gin wonder vaguely how something s kind and charming could mean something so sinister most of the time. Aizen leaned forward slightly and pressed his lips to Gins left cheek, making him wince a fraction.
"You cause me such unstable feelings these days, Gin-chan." Aizen whispered softly. "I have done nothing harmful to your beloved Izuru. I have only done what would be better for the both of you." Gin's eyes widened at the words and his breathing hitched a bit. What had been done to Izuru? What was Aizen saying? "You wish to see him, do you not?" A nod, soft and unsure. "Then follow me, like you used to not too long ago, Gin."
Aizen pulled back and undid his hands from his tired subordinate and turned, Gin in tow. They left the room to itself, empty and alone.
Hope that was an okay chapter.
Aizen was bad, but tries to make it sound good. :p
