I woke to voices.

"WHY THE FUCK DO WE HAVE TO BRING HIM BACK TO HEADQUARTERS?!?!" the first one snarled. The other voice was softer but also pissed off, "because Byakuya said so idiot"

"Who are you calling an Idiot Asshole?!

"You, idiot"

"I'LL KICK YOUR ASS SHUUHEI!!!"

They didn't seem to notice I was awake. I opened my eyes more to see two young men fist fighting. The first one I had heard was tall with broad shoulders and tattoos on his upper face. His hair was also a bright red that kind of hurt my eyes.

The other was slimmer and had purplish hair. He also wore face tattoos in the form of a 69. He seemed calmer and in more control than the other one. I guessed his name was Shuuhei.

I tried to sit up but found I couldn't move much. I looked down to see myself in shackles and chains. I figured my monster side could've broken them but I didn't even want to think of that.

That was when I remembered what had happened with my hatred. I tried to reach up to see if it was still there, but my hands were behind my back. I shifted slightly waiting for them to stop the fight. The jangling caught their attention.

"Oi better not be trying to escape worm!" threatened the red-head.

"He can't anyway moron. I made sure they were properly secured," scolded Shuuhei.

"Don't scold me asshole"

"Too bad ass"

They were about to start fighting again when I gathered courage to speak. "W-where am I," I stuttered out. My mouth felt so dry. I never did like fighting or seeing people get hurt. It made me nervous.

They looked at me bewildered. As if I was caught going into the women's bathroom by mistake. Shuuhei squatted next to me and asked "How long ago did you die?"

"A-about 3 days ago...S-sir?"

"BULL-SHIT," yelled out the red-head. I thought to myself how rude he was. I kind of wanted to throw him off a really high cliff. That was against my nature though so I disregarded it.

"And you're already an Arrancar?"

I frowned at this new word. I had no clue what an Arrancar and why would I be one? So I decided to display my ignorance. It seemed for the best.

"w-what's that?" I asked.

Shuuhei looked back at the red head and then back at me. He seemed very confused. The red head growled at me. He probably thought I was lying.

"Don't act like you don't know!"

"b-but I don't," I added softly.

He glared at me and then at Shuuhei.

"Let's take him to Mayuri," he purred. I was scared of the look on his face. It was a cruel grin that spoke of endless torture for me.

I wasn't wrong.
