CHAPTER 3: OF PLANS AND GIGAIS

"Kieli, get up!" Yoh shook his sister to try and wake her. Kieli lamely swatted his hands away.
"Tired. Go away." Sleep slurred her words.
"Aizen has requested us. We have to go, NOW!" Yoh growled pulling his sister out of bed and onto the floor. Kieli jerked awake. Her blue eyes opened wide as she rushed around the room to get ready.
"Shit!" She muttered combing her fingers through her hair and pulling her shoes on at the same time.

"So why does Aizen want us?" Kieli asked running down the hall to the throne room.
"Don't know, and not really caring at the moment, but if we don't show up soon, Aizen will kill us," Yoh replied just as they reached the white marble doors. Slowly and silently they opened.
Aizen sat in his white chair and Nora was bowed on one knee just below the platform of which Aizen sat upon, behind him stood Gin and Kaname. Yoh and Kieli dropped to one knee, following Nora's lead.
"So you have finally decided to join us have you?" Aizen raised an eyebrow, annoyed he had to wait on them.
"We are sorry Lord Aizen-Sama." The two newbies said at the same time. Though they had been created only a few days ago, they still knew enough not to piss him off.
Aizen waved his hand switching the topic. "I called the three of you here to tell you your new mission." The three perked up, their curiosity sky rocketing. "You will be spies for me." Aizen smirked as the three tried to figure out what exactly he meant.
"You want us to be spies?" Yoh asked. "And who do you want us to spy on? The older Espada? The tres cifras? Or maybe the arrancars?" Didn't he already know everything that went on in his own "kingdom", and what everyone did?*
Aizen slightly shook his head. "I want you to go to the world of the living." Kieli and Nora smiled, finally a chance to get out of this dull place. Yoh on the other hand had different views.
"You want us to go to the world of the living? Where the humans live?" He said a questionable tone in his voice.
Aizen stood up and walked over to the three kids, placing his hand on Yoh's shoulder. Yoh jerked straight up as though a bolt of lightning coursed through him. Suddenly he felt a tight pressure push on his lungs. "Are you questioning me?" Aizen's voice was calm as Yoh weakly shook his head. Nora and Kieli watched as their brother gasped when Aizen slowly took his hand away.
"Now, if I may, you will go to the world of the living as three teenage students. Then you shall befriend a special someone by the name of Kurosaki Ichigo and report to me everything he says and does. Harribel, Szayel, Stark and Gin shall assist you for the debriefing. Harribel will give you your new origin, Gin shall teach you about the human world and Szayel will show you how to hide your spiritual pressure so none of the soul reapers will be suspicious. You will have combat with Stark. You are now dismissed."
"How much of our power will be suppressed?" Nora asked. Aizen thought for a moment before placing his hand on her shoulder. He could feel her shudder under his touch; he smiled kindly, glad that she knew to be afraid of him.
"You will have to ask Szayel about that." The three deeply bowed before disappearing out of the room.

"I think he's up to something." Kieli stated once they were out of earshot of Aizen.
"Yeah, spying on that Ichigo kid, remember? Did you zone out when he told us?" Nora retorted.
"No, I heard everything he said same as you. But I think he has other motives too. Why does he want us to spy on that human kid and why does he want us to do it? I think he's using us as pawns."
Nora gave her siblings a worried look.
Yoh stopped walking and turned to face his sister. "Hey, even if we are just his 'pawns', it means he needs us, that we are valuable to him."
"And what happens when his goal is reached and we are no longer needed?" Kieli snapped.
"Then we'll think of something when that time comes." Yoh shot the blue headed girl a glare to shut her up.

"Ready guys?" Kieli asked casting a nervous glance at the two behind her as she raised her hand to knock.
"I really don't want to go back in there." Yoh mumbled. "Do you remember how creepy it was last time?" The three shuddered as they recalled the mass of failed experiments strewn all over the floor and the stench of chemicals sitting on the stale air to which Szayel seemed to be immune to.
"Let's get it over with." Nora sighed. Kieli softly knocked on the door. Maybe if he didn't answer they could just head over to Harribel or something and just skip the science freak. No such luck.
The door swung open as the unwanted familiar smell wafted over their faces. The pink haired Espada smirked, moving out of the way to let the three in.
The room was as Nora remembered, if not worse. Chemicals of every color, in every container, lined the counters, paper littered the floor and desk, and bodies lay motionless on the examination tables… wait what?
Nora did a double take and sure enough her eyes did not lie. Her face grew paler than it already was. Tubes connected the bodies to weird machines, like the ones she had woken up to not so long ago.
"Hey, Nora you ok?" Kieli asked noticing her sister's expression. "What's wrong?" The youngest Espada just pointed, words failing her, unlike her sister. "HOLY FUCKING SHIT! SZAYEL WHAT THE HELL?" Kieli jumped back.
