Hey guys! Sorry I couldn't finish this by Halloween. I actually ended up being out all week, the entire weekend, and I had events on all of last week, gack! And it was my mum's birthday yesterday, so I'm very sorry. I will try to finish it this week, there's not much left so it should be done fairly soon :)
Thank you to all my awesome reviewers, you are truly awesome!
The five vampires wandered around the room, checking all the girls for any of the attributes Aizen had specified. They would occasionally pull some out and ask them questions from the list, but no one fit the bill. They were too skinny, too fat, too short, far too tall, had the wrong blood type, or the worst part, hated giving taxes! When the dance routines had finished, Nnoitra decided to talk with the green-haired girl who had danced next to Luppi, who was now being flocked around by girls complimenting him on his dancing ability.
"Hi there," he said, sauntering up to her and leaning on the ballet bar. "Is your name as pretty as you are?"
"Please, that's the cheesiest line in the book," she said as she towelled off her green hair and looked up at him with a smirk, "But if you must know, I'm Nel. And you are?"
"Nnoitra. What's your blood type?"
"Aah B Negative I think," she told him.
"My favourite!" he grinned.
She was about to reply when the girl with the black hair and eyes that had spoken before, said something obnoxious, yet again.
"Miss Yoruichi, who are they?" she demanded, pointing at the vampires wandering the room.
"Aah…they're dance experts," she said quickly.
"Are they here to show us a new routine?" the girl asked.
"Yes, yes they are!" exclaimed Yoruichi. "You!" she pointed at Gin. "Come up and show these girls a routine."
"M-me?" he gaped, pointing at himself.
"Yes you, you're the leader aren't you?"
"Umm yeeeeesss," he said reluctantly. "But I think we should all come up and show you a routine. So why don't you ladies line up and the rest of you men come up here."
Nnoitra growled, he was going to kill that man someday; just when he had found a girl with his favourite blood type. Everyone lined up, the girls back to where they had been before, and the men standing awkwardly at the front. Yoruichi put on the ballet music.
"Ahem, yes," coughed Gin, standing at the front. "Sooo, just follow my lead ladies, if you don't get it right away then don't be too hard on yourselves."
Ulquiorra snorted derisively.
"Let's start with first position then shall we?" commented their great dance leader, taking a wobbly first position with his hands stretched out in front of him. The girls followed him, looking dubious. "And then we'll move our leg like this, and our arms like this," he demonstrated, putting his left leg behind him and his right arm above his head. "And then we'll do a little turn here."
For five minutes, the ballet dancers, Luppi, and the vampire accomplices followed Gin as he proceeded to take them on a wild ride of shaky turns, foot positions, and ending in a leap which resulted in all of them falling to the floor. Yoruichi stopped the music.
"That was certainly enlightening," she said coolly. "Could you five please demonstrate a pas de deux for me?" she asked sweetly.
"Of course, how easy," said Gin, turning around to face the others with a look of terror on his face. They all shrugged at him. He glared and turned back to smile creepily at the group of giggling girls. "Naturally a pas de deux is a par, like golf," he took an imaginary club and hit an imaginary golf ball, "And then day, which involves the sun," he waved his hands in the air, "And then dough is like the stuff in bread so you knead," he put his hands down and made a strange motion on the floor with them.
The girls burst out laughing, their shrieks echoing through the hall. Yoruichi glided over to him, her gold eyes glowing.
"A pas de deux is a "Dance for Two"," she told him. "I've had my doubts, but this proves it!"
They all cringed, their secret was out, it had been such a stupid idea in the first place.
"You're all British!" she exclaimed, pointing an accusatory finger at them.
There was a gasp around the room. The five vampires just stared in shock at the dancer.
"You have hid your accents well you horrid imposters! But I have discovered your secret, you're not real dancing teachers, you're just British!"
"No we're not!" cried Nnoitra, there was no way he was going to let all those beautiful, potential girlfriends think he was British! "Luppi, tell them."
All eyes turned to the transvestite in the middle of the room. He took a deep breath.
"How could you, you imposters? I trusted you, and now I find out that you're British!" he sobbed, hiding his face in his hands.
"You little-" began Grimmjow, cracking his knuckles menacingly.
"Well that settles it," said Yoruichi.
Less than a minute later they found themselves being kicked out of the hall onto the street of New York by a surprisingly strong ballet teacher.
"Get out!" And take your horrid British ways with you!" she yelled at them, slamming the door in their faces.
They grumbled as they got up from the dirty street and limped over to the sidewalk.
"Great plan Emo-King," snarled Grimmjow, dusting himself off and shooting a glare to the still unfased Ulquiorra.
"Does this look like an emotional face to you?" he asked, turning his completely blank face to Grimmjow.
Before he could reply, the doors opened again, and the flock of girls streamed out, pointedly turning their faces away from the men, Luppi with them, still in fake tears. They all glared after him as he went to sit with Nel and the other girls at a nearby café.
"Well my one bit of happiness after this is that he is stuck pretending to be a females with all those gorgeous girls and he can't do anything about it," cackled Nnoitra.
"I have a confession to make," came Luppi's voice from the café. "I'm actually not a girl."
Their mouths dropped open, ears pricking up as they waited to hear what he would say.
"I've never been very comfortable with myself and being a male ballet dancer so I've often dressed as a girl to avoid bullies. Those British imposters told me that dressing like a girl would make me a famous dancer. But now that they're gone I can be myself. I hope you ladies will accept me for who I am," with that he burst into fake tears.
"Aww!" all the girls cooed. "A man that actually isn't afraid to show his tears!"
"Don't worry Luppi, we'll help you get your confidence back," exclaimed Nel.
"Yeah we all will," added the black-haired girl.
"Group hug!" squealed another girl.
They all embraced him, squashing up together. Nnoitra ground his teeth.
"I'm going to kill that bastard!" he snarled, lunging towards the café.
The others grabbed him and pulled him back.
"Where's your sense of justice?" preached Kaname.
"Up Luppi's ass!" he shrieked back.
Suddenly Gin let go of him and looked around the quickly darkening street. Surprised with the sudden change, Nnoitra fell face-forward into the pathway.
"Hey what gives?" he snapped, jumping up with a raised fist.
"Look around," he replied quietly.
Everyone did so, it was Ulquiorra and Kaname who first realised what was wrong. Grimmjow and Nnoitra took a little longer.
"I don't get it," complained the blue-haired vampire. Then his eyes widened as he spotted a cluster of children in costume, running by giggling loudly. "O-o-o-o-oh."
"It's Halloween," sighed Kaname droopily.
"Oh *&%$#!" cried Nnoitra.
"Well I guess there's nothing for it," sighed Gin. "We're just going to have to go back to Lord Aizen and explain that we couldn't find the right girl."
Everyone else sighed too.
"We'll miss out on the O Positive cookies if we don't go back soon," added Grimmjow.
"In that case, I suggest you find the coordinates to go back home and lead us there," commanded Kaname.
Rolling his eyes Grimmjow held out his arm, showing a crescent moon engraved into it. They all placed their fingers on the moon and in a flash they had disappeared from the busy street, because of course they're vampires, and they have many different talents.
A second later, the five vampires appeared in the middle of a street in a town in the middle of nowhere.
"You idiot!" yelled Kaname. "You transported us 123.45 kms off our destination!"
"Well I'm sorry; I'm tired from all the dancing," he said defensively.
"Urgh," sighed Ulquiorra. "We've got to wait another 5 minutes before we can all teleport again."
"In that case, we may as well begin walking, it's not like I wanna get home quickly and face Lord Aizen's wrath."
"Wow cool costumes!" exclaimed a trick-or-treating child, pointing at them.
They all turned and glared at him, Gin even opened his eyes for extra effect. The child screamed and ran away (Author's Note: My friend and I did that on Halloween, it was really satisfying hearing the screaming all the way down the street :D)
"Let's take the roof tops," said Ulquiorra. "I don't fancy having to glare at children for the next five minutes."
"But Ulqui, you do it so well," muttered Grimmjow.
Ulquiorra kicked him in the balls, hard. Soon they were hopping over the rooves, Grimmjow wincing every time he moved his legs.
"Hold up," ordered Nnoitra. "I gotta tie my shoelaces."
Everyone rolled their eyes but stopped on a red roof-top as he bent down (it was a long way) to tie his tangled shoelaces.
"Actually this would be a good time to work out what we're going to say to Lord Aizen," said Kaname.
"How about, "Dear Aizen sir, we had trouble finding the girl you wanted, so sorry, lots of love, your Vampspada and seconds in command?" asked Grimmjow.
Ulquiorra moved his leg and Grimmjow quickly covered his crotch.
"That's actually pretty reasonable," sighed Gin. "I mean seriously, where are we supposed to find a young, beautiful, innocent vampire bride that isn't afraid of a bit of blood, loves coronations, travelling, giving out annoying taxes and has blood type AB?"
"Wow Orihime you are a beautiful, young, innocent, Vampire Bride that isn't afraid of a bit of blood, loves coronations, travelling, giving out annoying taxes and has blood type AB!" came a shriek from the house below them.
Hope you liked that and that you had an amazing Halloween. Stay tuned for a few more chapters :) Please review :)
