Aizen was lying on his bed, thoughts filling his head. He had suddenly realized something. He had trusted Hitsugaya too easily, a mistake which could be fatal in the future. He knew Hitsugaya could have something up his sleeve. Aizen shifted his position and gaped. He would send Hitsugaya through some kind of trial. I have to think more about it, he thought, but right now I have to sleep. And then he fell to sleep.
The next day in Soul Society…
"Taichooooo, sorry I´m late!!" Matsumoto screamed on the top on her lungs when she stepped inside the tenth division's office.
She expected her taicho to shout at her for being late, but no one was in the office. Eh, she thought and looked around. The office was neat and clean, and it didn´t look like it had been used since yesterday. She turned around and saw the 4. seat of the tenth division. She jumped over to him and asked:
"Have you seen taicho? He´s not in his office"
"Sorry, but I haven´t. I have some paperwork to be done. Will you take it?
"Later", Matsumoto said and disappeared in a blink of an eye. She didn´t want to do paperwork. Matsumoto looked over the whole Seiretei, but she couldn´t find him. I have searched everyone, and still I can´t find him.
Then she lightened up. I haven´t checked his room, maybe he´s oversleeping. He had been so stressed lately. You can´t blame him for that, Matsumoto thought and skipped over to his room.
"Taicho, wake up. You have a lot of paperwork to do", Matsumoto screamed.
But the room was empty and his bed neatly done. It looked like he didn´t even sleep here the last night. Matsumoto was disappointed; she wanted to hug her chibi taicho.
Suddenly a hell moth came flying in.
"Attention to every shinigami. The soutaicho has a very important announcement. Everyone shall meet at the training fields in one hour."
Matsumoto was surprised. It was a long time since the soutaicho had something to announce. She then decided to go back to her division and wait for her taicho.
Meanwhile somewhere else in Seiretei…
Ukitake felt very sad. In his dream Hitsugaya came and told him, that he had joined Aizen. It was a perfect opportunity and quite easy, he had said. "I will inform the soutaicho of this", Ukitake had answered and then they parted.
He knew everyone would hate Hitsugaya when they found out, what he had done. So young, and yet so mature. Sometimes I wish he would act more like a kid. And start eating my candy, Ukitake thought and sighed. But that would never happen and he knew that.
It had been an hour and all of the shinigami was standing on the training grounds, including Kurosaki Ichigo and Kuciki Rukia, who just seemed to pass by. They were all standing, waiting for the soutaicho to appear.
"What do you think the old geezer wants to say", Ichigo whispered to Rukia.
"I don´t know, but it must be something very important, since he had to call all of the shinigami.
But before Ichigo could reply, the soutaicho appeared and banged his staff/zanpukatou in the ground.
"I have some very important new, so please don´t interrupt me", he started. "I have some terrible new to all of you. It seems that Hitsugaya Toshiro has joined Aizen, and will from now on be deemed as a traitor."
First there was shocked silence. Then chaos started. The couldn't believe it. The hero, who could always be trusted, had joined Aizen and the two other traitors.
"This must be some kind of mistake", Ichigo roared. "This has happened before, and in the end Hitsugaya proved his loyalty to Soul Society. How can you say, that he has betrayed us without any evidence?"
"Actually, we have some evidence", the soutaicho said calmly. "Kurotshuchi-taicho, please show them."
Behind him, the evil psychopath known as Kurotshuchi rolled forth a giant TV screen. He pressed play on a remote controller and on the screen Hitsugaya appeared. Hitsugaya was walking when he suddenly stopped.
"What is Hitsugaya doing?" Ichigo asked no one in particular.
On the screen Hitsugaya suddenly tensed and then flash stepped away. Kurotshuchi pressed another button and they saw Hitsugaya from a different angle. Hitsugaya then dodged a cero. An arrancar stood in front of him. They talked for a while, when Hitsugaya suddenly smiled wickedly.
"Whoa, I didn´t know he could look so evil", Renji said surprised"
Hitsugaya and the arrancar talked again and then suddenly a portal appeared behind them. The arrancar jumped in, but first Hitsugaya looked around. He looked directly up to the camera and then he jumped in.
"There´s no way, that my Taicho would do that", Matsumoto whispered.
"You are facing the truth, Hitsugaya has betrayed us all. Aizen has now gathered 3 other captains and is now a serious threat. Everyone shall train and become stronger, otherwise we cannot win. That was all I wanted to say"
Then the soutaicho disappeared.
The captains were all shocked, excluded Ukitake of cause.
"I thought we could trust him", Komamura-taicho said.
"He is a disgrace to the rest of the captains", Byakuya said.
"We have to be careful from now on, Hitsugaya knows most of our plans. So now we have to rearrange our plans and tactics." Soi Fong said.
"Who´s going to tell Hinamori this?" Kira asked sadly.
"Hinamori is still unstable. It would be the best for her, is she doesn´t know this. First the loss of her captain, and now the loss of her childhood friend as well. She could break down" Unohana said.
Slowly the shinigami went to their own place. Many went to the bars to drink of their sorrow. Some were too shocked to do anything. And then there were those who didn´t know anything.
Matsumoto actually went early to bed and began crying silently. This would last the whole night.
Finish.
I hope you enjoyed. The next chapter is about Hitsugaya´s first day in Hueco Mondo.
Have sweat dreams
See ya
