A.N: Well hello there, Katie and I would like to thank you all for enjoying our Holiday special (that's a hard task on its own, so kudos to you) yes, it should have made it its own story but Katie didn't think of that and we are too lazy to change it so we're just going to continue on with the story. I hope you all had a wonderful December season and now that I have nothing more to say, let's get going.

Brooke's Zen of the Day: May the fleas of a thousand camels' crawl into the crotch of the person who fucked up your day and may their arms be too short to scratch.


Brooke

Only a couple days after the 'Wasp Incident' I woke up and my head was killing me. When I tried to open my eyes, it felt as if a whole fireworks display had gone off in my head. Rolling over, I closed my eyes and laid in bed for a good hour before I was finally able to get up and get to the shower, hoping that the hot water would help.

After my shower, the headache had dulled down to an echo of what it had been when I first woke up. Putting my vest over my 'All Time Low' T'shirt and walked to my door only to open it up and find Fran and Lilinette standing outside, looking like there were about to knock.

"Oh, hey guys, what's up?" I asked cautiously, you never know what my friends could be up to.

"We didn't know if you were up yet, ya missed breakfast." Fran told me seriously making me realize I must've wasted more time than I thought while laying in bed.

"Yeah, Katie's in the Kitchen fending off Arrancar from the eggs she saved you for breakfast." Lilinette told me happily, making me laugh as an image of Katie waving a spatula at the oncoming Arrancar popped in my head.

"Okay, let's go!"" And with that we left for the kitchen, with me walking behind my friends seeing as it hurt my head to run. By the time I made it to the large food making facility, I was sad to see that my idea of Katie and the spatula was not right seeing as she was just sitting in front of a plate of food.

"Oh, there you are Brooke, you're up rather late don't ya think?" Katie asked me before handing over the legendary eggs that Fran and Lilinette had been talking about.

"Maybe, so… anyone have any ideas on what we can do today?" I asked while taking a bite of my still hot breakfast.

"Nothing spectacular." Fran sighed, obviously disappointed at our lack of destructive plans for the day, although it is hard to think of something for everyday when you can't go outside.

"Well, we could always go hang out somewhere and see how many different Arrancars we can freak out." Katie suggested, it seemed reasonable.

"Yeah, I could bring my speakers and play some of my weird songs!" I said happily with my mouth full.

"Chew your food Brooke."

"Okay Mom!"

Thirty minutes later we were situated in one of the more socially active rooms in Las Noches, resting with my back against the wall, 'EmoKid' was blaring from my speakers while I looked through all the pictures on my Laptop. In front of me, my friends were singing along with the music, serenading anyone who walked into the room. Opening one of the picture files on my computer I instantly started laughing.

"Hey guys, come here for a second!" with that, all three of my friends stopped serenading a random Arrancar to come running over, showing them what was on my screen, they too started laughing.

Twenty minutes later, we were still going through the folder, cracking up at each picture while playing the 'what if' game with each folder, my Ipod was still playing, but we didn't really care about it. To tell the truth, I think the four of us giggling in the corner was creeping out everyone a whole lot more than our other attempts. It was at this time one of our favorite 'Spada walked in.

"There you are Trash." You get one guess at who it was, "Aizen-Sama sent us out to look for you." Looking up at Emocar, then back down at the current picture, we started cracking up.

"Ya find them?" Grimmjow asked as he walked into the room before seeing us laughing like idiots in the corner, "What the hell are you idiots doing?" The blue haired 'Spada asked, just causing us to laugh harder.

"Okay, okay. We gotta calm down." Katie said, trying to calm down, after a minute we were finally calm enough to talk to the 'Spada.

"What do you guys do on that computer all the time that's so damn funny?" Grimmjow asked slightly grumpily.

"We look at porn." I answered as seriously as I could before all four of us started laughing again.

"Aizen-Sama is about to hold a meeting and he's requested that you be there." Our favorite emo said before Grimmjow had a chance to try and figure out what we were talking about, and with that, the emo left without even making sure we knew when to be there, Grimmjow followed, probably just to get away from our crazy-ness.

"Hey guys?" Fran asked when we calmed down again.

"Yes Fran?" Katie asked, still shaking slightly from laughter, the evil look in Fran's eye caught our attention, finally calming us down.

"I think I know what to do at the meeting."

It took us ten minutes to get everything ready for the meeting, making us a teeny bit late, but we still had enough time to get our precious tea, although when we sat down, Grimmjow was looking at us funny. As Aizen began talking, we began by sliding one of the papers across the floor, so it slid under the chairs of a certain person who we knew would react just right. A couple minutes later I saw Szayel lean down and pick something up off the ground from the corner of my eye, looking at it, he started laughing before showing it to the person next to him; they too started snickering, only to be shut up by a harsh look from Aizen.

Next, Katie slid a different picture across the ground and the cycle started up again. We continued it, being careful to make sure Aizen or Tousen didn't notice, too much 'cause then our fun would be cut short before we had enough time to enjoy it. After our stack was gone, we sat back and waited for the real fun to start, eventually it did, with Nnoitra starting it off for us.

"Hehehe, Grimmjow, I always knew you were gay." The tall man laughed quickly getting a reaction from the Kitty 'Spada.

"What the fuck are you talking about Nnoitra, I'm not gay." Grimmjow denied sternly.

"According to this picture you are." Nnoitra smiled creepily as Grimmjow stood up and snatched the picture away from him, looking at it quickly , Grimmjow's blue eyes grew big in shock and anger.

"WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS!" He shouted looking at a picture of himself and Ulquiorra, snickering quietly, we tried to look innocent, but I'm not so sure it was working really well. Standing up I grabbed the picture out of his hands and looked at it.

"Well Grimmjow, it looks like a picture of you and Emocar over there-"

"I KNOW WHAT IT IS!!!" he yelled before I was able to finish my sentence.

"Well of course you do, you were there right?" Szayel laughed playing right into our game.

"THAT NEVER HAPPENED!" It was extremely funny watching him freak out like that, making me think he wasn't quite sure of his sexuality yet or that it was true.

"I wouldn't be laughing to hard Szayel, there's one of you too." Katie pointed out as the picture of him and everyone's favorite quincey made its way down the table.

"What is this Monstrosity!" Szayel yelled, just like Grimmjow, he was obviously on the offensive when it came to these pictures. It was at this point where hell broke loose, people started yelling as they found pictures of them and began bringing up the pictures of those who made fun of them, I could see in the corner of my eye that Aizen was beginning to get annoyed with this, luckily, this whole fiasco started when the meeting was almost over but I was starting to get worried that we might have (finally) stepped over the line.

"Silence." Suddenly there was an overwhelming pressure, shutting everyone up and putting Aizen back in control, "If you haven't realized it yet, these 'photos' are all drawings, they mean nothing." Everyone was quiet as you could tell that all the 'Spada that were in one of the pictures were thinking the same thing, 'thank god.' " Now, I believe that because of this little fiasco," insert 'The-Look' at me and my friends, "that it would be best that we cut this meeting short, you are dismissed, you four, stay." And with that all the 'Spada left, some giving us bad looks, others smiling happily at all the entertainment we created.

"Now, even though I appreciate your abilities to entertain yourselves, why do you feel the need to cause a disruption during every one of my meetings?" He asked us when everyone, including Gin and Tousen, had left; he spoke calmly yet he gave off the 'all-powerful' ray that just made you want to listen to him while terrifying you, like charisma on crack.

"We're sorry Aizen-Sama, we won't do it again." Katie apologized before any of us had a chance to speak. After staring at us for a minute he spoke.

"Well then, you may go." We all nodded slightly before leaving the room, feeling a little jumpy.

"Okay then, entertainment during meetings, out." Fran joked, lightening the mood a bit.

"Yeah, not our best idea, but did you see their faces? That was so funny, totally worth it!" Lilinette said happily as we all agreed. As we walked down the halls, blabbing 'bout whose reaction was the funniest, my vote's on Grimmy, I felt a weird shock like feeling travel up my spine, it's not like it hurt or anything, but it made the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.

"Uh, Brooke? You okay?" Katie asked, causing my friends to turn around seeing as I had stopped walking.

"Yeah, just a headache, I think I'm just gonna go lay down." I told them, it wasn't a lie either, my headache really had started coming back with a vengeance.

"Okay, hope your head feels better." Katie said before they turned around and walked away, still talking loudly about what we did in the Meeting Room. Sighing, I turned around and headed towards my room, I felt weirdly energized, like all my cells were vibrating, which caused me to shudder as I walked.

As I neared the corner I saw someone else round it, Nnoitra to be exact. I felt a lump form in my stomach, amazing enough, he was one of the people with a yoai pic, and I was pretty sure he wasn't happy about it either.

"Look here bitch, I got a bone to pick with you!" he snapped when he saw me, obviously angry, I really wasn't in the mood to deal with this.

"It's not my fault you can't handle a joke." I mumbled, just wanting to go lay down in my bed.

"What was that? If you have something to say to me say it you worthless asshole." Okay, now I was angry. I could feel my energy rise up as I glared at the tall man in the eye.

"I said, it's not my fault that you are not secure enough in your own sexuality to deal with being called gay." I snapped, I could feel my hands starting to go on pins and needles, but I was too caught up in my anger to really care.

"Why you little-" as the 'Spada moved to hit me, I used all my energy to try and strike back, punching at his chest. (I'm too short to hit much higher) Although nothing should've happened besides me getting throw into a wall, it was the 'Spada who fell back onto the ground, convulsing as he laid there as I stood wide eyed, no longer mad but freaked out. My hands still felt numb but I no longer felt the weird energy, instead I felt rather sluggish besides the hyped up adrenalin rush I was feeling.

Stepping backwards, I turned and ran in the opposite direction as fast as I could, I didn't even know where I was going, or who I was looking for. Eventually I did find someone, and for once in my life, didn't end up running into them, lucky thing to, seeing as I ran into Aizen.

"A-A-Aizen-Sama!" I stuttered franticly, adrenalin still pumping through my veins.

"Is there a problem?" he asked sounding a heck of a lot calmer than me, he raised one eyebrow as if he was interested in what I was about to say.

"I was walking back from the meeting, and was feeling all tingly and stuff, then Nnoitra came up and was all 'I'm mad at 'cho' and I was all 'You're fault' and he was like 'Bitch' and tried to hit me and I hit back and he fell and was convulsing and stuff and I don't know what the fuck is going on any more!" I spoke as quickly as I could, most of my words running together in such a way that I wasn't sure he under stood what I said.

"I see." Apparently he understood, enough at least, "In that case, come along." He said as he turned around, and began walking, causing me to follow him eagerly.

Twenty minute later I was still sitting in Szayel's lab, as he got some test results, on including blood work, which took some work to get done seeing as I hate needles with a passion. Szayel was humming as he tapped on his key board at his computer while I was still sitting on one of the tables, waiting impatiently. I looked around the rather cluttered room to try and distract myself, everything was so foreign, even the things that I knew what they were seemed odd surrounded by the unknown. In the back of my mind I felt that Szayel was trying to get back at me for the picture thing seeing as he kept muttering things under his breath like 'interesting' or 'how odd' which made me all the more anxious. It seemed like something he would do to don't it, psychological warfare.

Suddenly the door opened up and all three of my friends ran in franticly.

"BROOKE!" Katie yelled happily, "YOU'RE ALIVE!" I was then glomped by all three of my friends at the same time, almost knocking me, and the rest of them, off the table.

"No running or yelling please." Szayel said, not even turning around to see what was going on behind him.

"I didn't know I died?" I blinked as they slowly let go of me before Katie hit me (hard) on the back of the head.

"What the HELL?!? You scared the crap out of us!" She said angrily.

"I'm sorry, Jeeze, not so hard next time." I complained rubbing my head, "Wait, how did you guys know something was up?" I asked, I didn't think they would know anything about this mess until I knew what was going on.

"Well, we were hanging in Katie's room when one of Harribel's Fracción, you know, uh, Apache, came in saying that Harribel told her to tell us that you were in one of Szayel's Labs so we began barging into every lab until we found you and, here we are." Fran explained

"Did you know that there are like a lot of labs here? It took us like ten minutes of searching to find the right one" Katie said still glomping me. I rolled my eyes and tried to yank her off me…unsuccessfully.

"Umm Katie." I said looking at her.

"Yes Brooke?" she said innocently.

"Get off me!" I yelled grumpily, causing Szayel to sigh at our lack of listening skills, at least to what he says.

"Only if you don't die!" Lilinette, Fran and Katie chorused together. I twitched at them and Katie let go. Szayel came over while looking at a chart. Right then Aizen came in with Tousen and Gin. Wow they had really good timing. So I decided to tell them that.

"You guys have really good timing" I said. Katie laughed while Fran and Lilinette nodded in agreement. Aizen just ignored me and looked at the creepy scientist, I feel so unloved.

"So what do her tests say?" he asked in his all-powerful-fear-me voice.

"Well, Brooke seems to have manifested her powers, which to me seem very advanced. The seal that was explained to me has seemed to have finally broken. Thus the manifesting of her powers. They have been growing exponentially sense she has arrived in Los Noches so them finally showing themselves isn't surprising in fact, I'm a little surprised that it took this long for them to surface." He flipped the papers over and looked me up and down. I twitched again and glared at the scientist.

"Her blood was a very exciting to study. It seems that her very cells are absorbing Reishi at an incredible rate. So much that they are literally vibrating in place. I'm pretty sure that the reason she was able to force Nnoitra away from her was because the reishi building up in her needed an outlet or she was going to combust, literally. This burst of energy probably won't happen for a little while, but I suggest that she get someone to train her or there will be bad consequences and her power may destroy her from the inside out." 'Well, doesn't that sound fun' I thought grimly as Szayel finished his long ass assessment and everyone looked at Aizen.

"Very well, Gin will you bring Grimmjow down here" he said without looking at the ex-captain. Gin left and we waited in an awkward silence that everyone but Aizen seemed to notice until he came back with Grimmjow.

"Whatcha need Aizen?" he asked a little grumpily. I guessed that we might have interrupted his afternoon cat nap.

"I decided that you shall train Brooke in combat." At this little detail, the room interrupted into chaos.

"What oh hell no! He's gonna kill me!" I yelled. Katie, Lilinette, and Fran started rolling on the floor laughing, I tried to make them stop by glaring at them but apparently they were immune.

"What are you insane? I can't train that crazy bitch!" Grimmjow yelled angrily. Szayel and Gin smirked as they watched the meltdown in the room.

"Enough." Aizen said. The room immediately quieted down. Damn that guy had us all under his thumb, talk about control. "Now Brooke" he said, his scary listen-to-me-or-die voice came out. "You have two choices. Grimmjow can train you or I'll have Nnoitra train you." Given those two options there was only one clearly obvious and safe(er) choice.

"Well hello there my best-est buddie in the world" I greeted glomping Grimmy with the cheesiest smile plastered on my face.

"Get off me now!" he growled while trying to push me off him but I hung on like a koala. Aizen nodded at my choice and he, Tousen, and Gin left.

"Alright everyone get out of my lab or I'll be forced to experiment on you." Szayel said tapping away at his keyboard. All of us were out of the room in three point five seconds flat. Whoever said that we were slow was damn wrong. As we walked away from the mad scientist's lab, geeking out, my group of hyper active friends bugged me about the details of how this exactly happened while Grimmjow stalked down the hall behind us. I was happy to find that my headache was no longer hurting and besides feeling a bit tired, I felt great.

"Isn't this great Grimmy-Kitty? Now we get to spend some much time together." I called over my shoulder, quiet obviously trying to piss off the 'Spada.

"Ugh, don't remind me." He whined like the idea was the worst thing that could happen.

"Well you know what? You can suck my…" I trailed off as my four friends and I started cracking up.

"Do you want to finish that sentence?" Grimmjow asked threateningly from directly behind me, freaking me out just a bit.

"Big toe!"
