A.N: Okay, new chapter up, it's not the funniest thing that'll be put up on our story but I've been pre occupied. Last chapter has messed up our back and force style of writing so I (Brooke) am taking the evens for now, the best way to tell who's writing though, is to check, is this called an A.N or a Disclaimer? I put A.N and Katie-lynn puts Disclaimer. Oh yeah, I've been working on fixing a few chapters, so far I think we've done 1 3 and 4 so you might want to check them out.
Oh, and a bit of bad news, Katie is losing her Internet until November so some post might take longer to get up than others but when school starts it might get quicker, might. And even though we said that the third chapter was the longest, this one actually is! OMG, and thanks to yall that reviewed, I'm to lazy to get your names, but you know who you are and you get a cookie… now that I think I've said everything, ON WITH THE CHAPTER!!!
Brooke's Zen of the day: Aizen isn't politically correct. He's just correct. ALWAYS.

Important things that have happened; Katie and I almost got killed 5.5 times, Stark has fallen asleep 9 times 3rd hour biology alone, and Szayel got angry at a 'Bill Nye the Science Guy' video, saying something around the lines of 'not a real scientist, idiotic….' The rest was either to scientifical for me to comprehend, or let's just say I have some new very colorful words in my vocab. I mean seriously, those words were pretty much neon, it's not like my vocabulary isn't a box of crayons already either. And all of that happened in a span of less than a week.
Currently it was Thursday afternoon and I was in a very good mood. Why was I in such a good mood you ask? Well, because 1) I didn't have a trace of a headache and 2) the sky overhead was dark gray, threatening to start storming any minute. I love storms; lightning, thunder, rain, and harsh winds, what's not to love? It had already rained pretty hard earlier, soaking our practice field, a.k.a, the reason softball practice had been canceled.
We were riding down the road in Katie's car, Katie, being the only one who can legally drive, was doing just that and Lilinette had shotgun. They were both talking animatedly while I was sitting in the back next to the window, at the other window was Grimmy, who had basically been given the job of babysitter along with Stark (he simply got the job because Lilinette was his fracción, I don't know why Grimmy got the job). In the middle was Szayel, which was the reason I was listening to my music, quiet enough where I could hear everyone, but just the sight of the headphones and people don't try to talk to you. Okay, the scientist does scare me a little, for obvious reasons, I mean; he eats his fracción. How is that not creepy? Please elaborate on how cannibalism is not, in the least bit, disturbing, and don't give me any of that 'he simply recreates his fracción' bullshit. Szayel is a freakin cannibal. End of story.
Where are we headed? To the computer store in Cadillac!!! Hence the reason we have Szayel with us. Lilinette thought it would be a fun place to take Science-Boy. I had to go anyways because my computer, which Katie and I moved into my room, needed more memory. I save too much stuff.
"How much longer till we get there?" Grimmjow grumbled like a small child, the trip was quickly growing old for the 6th 'Spada. It was kinda cute seeing him get all-impatient and sulk because he had to come along with us instead of Stark.
"'Bout five minutes." I told him; seeing as the likeliness that Katie would answer was just about zero.
"Hey guys, we should get something to eat after we go to the computer store." Katie suggested from the front seat.
"Where do you have in mind?" I asked; next to me, Szayel took out a little notebook and started writing things down, probably documenting the 'human food decision process' or something.
"Um... How about Subway?"
"I'm sorry… I don't eat fresh." Katie and Lilinette laughed at my answer while Grimmjow and Szayel stared at me strange, obviously, they haven't seen the subway commercials. "Hey, wouldn't you think that Subway's catchphrase would be 'have it your way'? Cause you can personalized your sub…" I pondered.
"Yeah, but 'Burger King' was around longer." Katie pointed out.
"They were?" Lilinette asked from the front, I didn't know that either, although I guessed it.
"We're Here!" Katie sang as we pulled into the parking lot. I saw Grimmjow sit up in his seat; he looked around the parking lot before choosing to stare at me skeptically.
"Why are we here again?" he asked sounding just as skeptical as his expression had given away moments before.
"Cause, my computer needs more memory; it keeps making me delete different files and it's starting to piss me off. And since my parents left us a crap load of money, I decided to waste some of it to fix my computer." I smiled happily, it wasn't much, but this was only one form of revenge on my parents. Petty, I know, but petty enjoyments for petty minds I suppose. "Now help me carry in my hard drive."
After about five minutes of persuading, I finally got Grimmy to carry my hard drive. I didn't want to do it and I didn't trust Szayel with any type of technology, let alone my baby. Grimmy, Szayel and I walked into the computer store while Katie and Lilinette skipped into the shoe store next door. Yeah, it was Lilinette's idea to bring Szayel and she not even the one put in charge of watching him, where's the logic in that. I held the door open for the two 'Spada before following them in. A bell overhead dinged as the door opened and again when it closed.
"Welcome, what can I do for you?" a sales clerk asked us as we stood in the entry way, besides me, Grimmjow looked bored while Szayel was looking around the store in total amazement.
"Wow, you humans have an entire store in which you can obtain any form of technology that you require." The scientist babbled on in amazement, which was probably only caused by the sure massive amount of technology, not how advance it is. Aw, his heart would be crushed when he found that out… I can't wait.
"Um, ignore him." I told the clerk, "I need more memory for my computer, it's a Compaq Windows XP." I told the man, after of course, checking the damn thing, making Grimmjow hold it at an angle so I didn't have to bend over all the way.
"Okay, walk this way please." He motioned for us to follow, Grimmjow and I went, Szayel was too busy playing the 'name that electronic' game. The clerk led us over to a counter where he just started getting out different electronic parts and tools that I couldn't name. Szayel probably could, I couldn't. "This might take some time, feel free to walk around the store."
"Okay, thanks." I smiled, I could tell that the clerk was thinking about how naïve I am and how much more money he can make out of this. He was sadly mistaken in my naivety, seeing as if I spent more money than I needed, it was no skin off my back.
"I don't trust him." Grimmjow told me as we walked away from the counter, I was headed over to the CDs and I'm pretty sure that Grimmjow was only with me for lack of better things to do.
"Eh, probably shouldn't, but I really don't care if he charges us extra for crap I don't need." I explained; good thing Katie wasn't here or she would go off on me for being all 'irresponsible'. "Now help me look for the 'Ra' CD." Grimmjow grumbled something incoherent under his breath as we began our search. Across the story I could hear Szayel lecturing some poor soul about the proper use of some random 'what-cha'-macal-it'… Great, now I want a candy bar.
"Dang it." I mumbled under my breath as I realized that the CD wasn't here. I'd been searching for it for almost six months and I couldn't for the life of me find it. This irked me to no end. "It'sh not here Grimmy-Kitty." I sighed, slumping over feeling rather depressed with the matter. Grimmjow rolled his eyes at my use of 'Grimmy-Kitty'. I knew he didn't like me calling him that, which made me feel better, if only a little.
I wandered back up to the front counter to check on my computer to find that it was already done… with Szayel standing next to it looking proud of himself and the clerk that was originally supposed to be fixing it was just standing there looking at the hard drive, than back at the pink haired scientist.
"I told you that you didn't need any of those devices to upgrade the hard drive." I heard pinky tell the clerk arrogantly, I felt my eye twitch as I thought of Szayel messing around with the insides of my computer.
"I swear; if it explodes I am so going to hurt you." I crossed my arms as I stared at the scientist.
"Can we please get out of here?" Grimmjow moaned, obviously annoyed with us.
"Fine." I turned to the clerk who was just staring at our strange group, "How much do I owe you?"
"$26.50." He told me after punching in the charge of the little gizmos and gadgets Szayel had put into my computer.
We walked out of the store and put my hard drive into the trunk of Katie's car before I started walking over to the shoe store.
"Where are you going?" Grimmjow asked sounding really annoyed.
"I'm going on a quest to find Katie and Lilinette." I told him from over my shoulder as I jumped over the curb and onto the sidewalk. "She is the only one who can legally drive." I walked into the store knowing that the two 'Spada would eventually follow me.
Inside the store I quickly found my two teen friends, the store is quiet small. They were in an isle near the wall both going through the boxes upon boxes of shoes; looking for cute shoes, looking for sizes and different colors. I shuddered at the very thought. On the floor around them were around 20 different boxes of shoes.
"Hey guys, ready to go?" I asked causing both girls to turn from the obsessive shoe shopping.
"OMG Brooke, this store has sooo many cute shoes, and for so cheep too!!" Katie beamed happily, I was scared for a moment of the 'Shopping Katie', seriously, when Katie starts shopping for clothes/shoes she becomes vicious! Not fun.
"Well, it is Payless, so it's kinda expected." I agreed with her, I've made it this far, there is no turning back now, "Well, my computer has been fixed, by Pinky no less, so let's booggy on out of her."
"Why?" Lilinette asked, "It's so fun!"
"Because if we don't get home soon, Aizen might think we've ran off and send out an 'Spada search party, and Grimmy's getten annoyed so he might try to drag us out himself, which means you don't get to buy your shoes." I told them, the last part made their eyes grow wide. Both teens grabbed about ten boxes of shoes each before racing to the check out counter. This caused the women at the register to freak out just a little bit. Hmm, we seem to have a pattern going on her, people working at registers freak out when we go over to them… I might have to get Szayel to look into that.
After we (I) paid for the mountain of shoes we (Grimmy) managed to stick all the boxes into the trunk with my hard drive. In the car Szayel grabbed one of the window seats and Grimmjow forced me to sit in the middle. I sulked as we drove down the road, arguing over where we wanted to go get food.
"I vote for Burger King." I piped up as Katie and Lilinette argued over Arby's or Burger King. In the front Lilinette smiled before sticking her tongue out at Katie.
"Fine." Katie sighed as Lilinette and I cheered, Grimmjow shook his head at our juvenile actions, hypocrite, and Szayel was once again writing down what we were doing… weirdo.
We pulled into Burger King's drive through and ordered our food, it was funny because it took us this long to realize that neither Szayel or Grimmjow had ever been to a Burger King, so we got to order for them. Lilinette had gone last time we had to go grocery shopping with Stark, since we went to Wal-Mart seeing as our Pamida doesn't have many grocery options. We ordered Grimmjow a fish sandwich (hehe, cat = fish) and Szayel a big kids meal so he could mess with the toy. The three of us (Katie, Lilinette and I) have horrible senses of humor apparently because we found this hilarious.
I threw my empty wrapper up front at Lilinette as I got out my Ipod and put in only one ear bud. The first song that came up was 'Seventy Times Seven' by 'Brand New', that is one evil song my friend. As the music started booming I started bouncing up and down in my seat I time with the music.
"Do you always listen to your Ipod?" Grimmy asked after I'd almost hit him for the third time.
"Yep, she sure does." Katie answered for me, "She says it helps her not get headaches."
"Hey. It does help thank you very much." I stuck my tongue out at her, making sure she could see me from the front seat.
The rest of the ride home went much like that, well, until Grimmy angered Katie about driving slow. Seriously, she got pissed, I'm pretty sure she turned the A.C. off it got so hot in the car. It wasn't her fault for driving slow either, we were on a part of a road where cops usually stake out and we didn't want to get pulled over. Then the car got quiet for a while. I simply listened to my Ipod the rest of the way home.
Once we got home Katie and Lilinette went on a rampage with their shoes and trying to find a place to put them all, well Katie was, Lilinette didn't get as many shoes as Katie did and I wouldn't let Katie store her shoes in my closet, they take up too much space. I had to spend some, quality time, with Szayel as he tried to explain some of the upgrades he put on my computer. Of course, I didn't understand half of what he said.
Eventually we got everything hooked up and I was able to sit in my room in peace. I plugged my Ipod into the speakers and sat on my futon/bed listening to whatever came on while I drew in my notebook. Around 9:30 Katie came in obviously in a bad mood, I don't know why, and went to bed, so I had to stop drawing and put my Ipod on Ron Pope and tried to fall asleep myself.
It took awhile, it always does for me, and I spent the hour and a half or so that I was awake to ponder all the unsolved questions I had and trying to think of more ways to mess with the 'Spada. Only the ones less likely to kill me though, I'm not a total retard, just an adrenaline junkie. As my Ipod turned off seeing as I put it on sleep mode, I drifted off to sleep to the sound of a hard rain pounding the roof and the faint ring of thunder piercing my dreams.
END CHAPTER!!!!!

Oh, and preview for the next few chapters, next will be a little plot-y, after that you'll see a magic 8 ball, jamagedge, Gin and Aizen, maybe Tousen, ice cream and FIRE!!!! Enjoy, and until next time, REVIEW DAMN IT!!!
