If you want to suggest any ideas for mischief or pranks that Gin or Kai should pull, leave reviews. I'm always open for ideas, or constructive criticism. :)

Granz wasn't the only one who was good with potions.

Sure, he might be better at it than Kai, but she knew enough chemistry to get her three-part plan done. Well, four-part plan, if you counted sitting back and laughing as one of the steps. Anyway, enlisting the help of another Espada was cheating, so she felt fully justified in what she was about to do. Fight a science- related prank with another science- related prank.

Prepare for mayhem…

Part one – insert concoction into a few of Gin's persimmon trees.

Was this going to affect just one measly persimmon? Oh, no. Not when it's Kai you're dealing with. Oh, no no no.

Part two – commencing. Kai stood ready, hiding her presence.

Gin really liked these persimmons. She had, of course, done a bit of snooping before applying her mischief. Like any good prankster, she waited and watched. She would not be outdone.

He had a number of persimmon trees growing in a little orchard. Gin sometimes ate the persimmons straight off the trees, and the tree he ate the most out of was, naturally, Kai's target. She had also poured the solution in a few other trees, just to make him paranoid.

She grinned wickedly.

Sure enough, he soon came, just like she knew he would. Leisurely, unexpecting, strolling… He walked up to the targeted tree and plucked a large persimmon from it. He continued walking, coming up to the point where Kai was hiding.

And then, he bit into the persimmon.

*SPLAT*

The persimmon, as Kai knew it would, exploded. Not in a lethal way, just in a persimmon-spreading way*.

Gin was quite surprised – he even opened his eyes. So now, while he was covered in persimmon-goop, Kai darted out and fulfilled part two.

*click* went the Polaroid camera, and out shot the photo of Gin, eyes open, persimmon-covered.

But wait! That's not all! Act now and you can get two for the price of one! So naturally she snapped another picture, this one portraying a much more alarmed Gin (though his eyes were in their usual squint, now).

Shaking both pictures in the air, Kai exclaimed, "Later, Gin! I warned you!" and flash stepped away.

But wait, you say. Wasn't there a part three? you say.

Ah, yes. Part three. Glorious, victorious part three. Well…

XXX

Kai stepped through the garganta and into the human world, careful to mask her spiritual pressure so no meddlesome Shinigami noticed her. She made her way to the small, office-like building. It was easy to break it and locate what she wanted.

A quick bit of computer hacking on the machine, and it was ready. Kai slipped the first photo into the copy machine. Out popped dozens and dozens of replicas, depicting a persimmon-covered Gin.

With her paper treasures, she quietly opened another garganta and slipped back to Las Noches.

XXX

Night had once again fallen (symbolically) in Las Noches. So now, while everyone was asleep, Kai would act. Here came part three… how she loved part three. She just had to be sneaky like a ninja (not a problem) and make sure she didn't run into anyone, namely Gin Ichimaru (slightly harder, but a good way to practice her ninja skills).

Kai maneuvered around the white hallways, rolling and flipping and darting, and even doing those summersault things like spies did in human movies. That was mostly just for the heck of it; even if she did run into anyone (except, of course, Gin) she was an Espada, so she wouldn't really get in trouble. Probably.

But anyway, part three – GO!

She tacked, taped, glued, strung, and stapled all her pictures around various parts of Las Noches, including spots that were up high (dangling from the ceiling of the throne room), hard to reach (strung just outside of several windows), or wouldn't be spotted until later (taped to the inside of cupboards). She even tacked one to each of the Espada's doors.

Part four, sitting back and laughing, would soon commence.

Thanks for reading!

Tune in next time... How will Gin react? Will he get revenge? What will happen to Kai? Find out in the next... 'GIN'S GAMES'!

Check out my other story if you want: Crazy People, These Shinigami. It's refreshing to write lighter stuff like this, as my other story actually has a mostly-planned plot. Sort of.

KIWI, OUT!

*- I got the wording from the book "EXTRAS" by Scott Westerfeld (fourth and last in a series). In the end, someone is about to blow up a cake, and they say, 'not in a lethal way, just in a cake-spreading way'.
