From now on SPOILER WARNING!! (up to the flashback manga arc "Turn Back The Pendulum")

I don't own Bleach our any of it's characters, Tite Kubo does.

Date Taizenkaze is my creation.

I'm proud of how much I've done already XP

Ch.8 Dream of the Silver Smile

'--deserted area of Rukongai--

"Eat. If you can feint from hunger, it obviously means you have it, right? The power?"

"So you have it, too?"

"Yes, just like you. My name is Gin. I'm pleased to meet you."

"Gin? What a strange name."

--"The Shack"--

"Man, Gin ain't back yet. I wonder what's keeping him."

"I'm back Date-kun, and I found a new friend for us!" said the child-sized Gin in a sing-song voice, carrying a sleeping Rangiku piggy-back style.

"A new friend you say? You mean you found another person like us?" asked the pre-teen sized Date.

"Yup. I found her past out on my way back, so I thought I'd bring her with me."

At this point Rangiku starts to wake up. "Hmmm. It looks like she's waking. Put her on the mattress, Gin." Just as Gin sets her down, Rangiku fully wakes up. Her eyes travel from her silver haired savior, to the green-haired pre-teen, to her new surroundings with a mix of confusion and intrigue.

"Wha? Where am I?"

"This is our little 'House' that we like to call, 'The Shack'." said Date sitting down to look her in the face with a grin. "My name is Date Taizenkaze, nice to meet you. You've already met Sir-Grins-A-Lot, Ichimaru Gin."

"I…I'm Rangiku…Rangiku Matsumoto" chirped the strawberry blonde nervously.

"Tell me, Rangiku Matsumoto, do you have have a family back in one of the districts?" Rangiku just looked down and shook her head, tears starting to roll down her face. "I see…"

"Were you abandoned?" asked Gin with a somber tone, the smile gone from his face. Date looked at Gin like he was about to scold him for being rude, when…

"Yes…" she said, silently nodding.

"Then…would you…uh…like to join our family?" asked the silver-haired youth hopefully. Both Rangiku and Date just stare at Gin in surprise.

"Oh thank you!" shouted a teary eyed Rangiku as she glomped Gin and planted numerous 'Cootie kisses' on his face. "Oh thankyouthankyouthankyou!"

Date just stood there and laughed at the site of Gin struggling to break free while shouting 'AH! COOTIES!'

--Hueco Mundo--

"Ichimaru, wake up. You're drooling on the control panel again."

"rrrr. Just 5 more minutes." groaned a sleepy Gin. He had fallen asleep again at the control panel to their Hueco Mundo fortress and only one other person was with him.

"I might be blind, but I can still smell and hear." Said a calm, yet notably peeved, Tousen Kaname.

"What's that surposed to mean, Tousen-san?" asked a still groggy Gin.

"I know you drool, cause I can smell it. Plus, you snore."

"Hey now, I don't snore." Retorted Gin, turning is back to the blind man and pouting. "He just had to wake me from 'that' dream." Thought the silver-haired man to himself. "I wonder why I had that dream anyway."

"One more thing, there are no such things as 'cooties'."

"Shaddup." grumbled Gin.

Aizen briskly walks into the control room with a cup of tea in hand and that 'I am God' smile of conference. "Good Morning!"

"Good Morning, Aizen-sama." responded Gin and Kaname in unison.

At this point, a messenger arrancar ran into the room

"Aizen-sama, please pardon my rudeness, I bring you news from the Human World."

"Really now? What is it?"

"There is word of a new shinigami in the area of Karakura Town."

Gin went as stiff as a bored. "Oh boy. I think I just got my answer."
