Eyes slowly flickered open. Izuru looked around him as objects began to come into focus. He was lying on a huge, spacious bed that looked crisp and clean. There was furniture. A chair, a bedside table and a wardrobe. But it was quite dark. There was no window. The only light that shone into the room came from under the door. Slowly, without getting a headache, Izuru tried to piece together what had happened and how he had come to be in this room. Then, he remembered. What he saw and what he heard. 'It was Captain Gin...he must have brought me here'. He thought, and slowly got up from the bed, wincing as his bare feet touched the cold floor. Pain shot up his ankle that he had previously bumped.
Slowly, he shuffled over to the door and tried turning the knob. It was locked. "Great. This is turning into a miserable day...or night." He mumbled, as he realized that without a window, he had no idea if it was day or night, nor how long he had been unconscious. He still wore his soul reaper clothing, but his Zanpakuto had been taken from him. "And weapon less." He said to himself and scowled. Gin Ichimaru had some answering to do. As did Aizen. Izuru began to pound on the door. "Hello? Is there anyone there? Captain Gin? Captain Aizen? Hello? How long do you think you can keep me in here?" He said, but there was silence. "Someone had better answer me, god dammit! Why was I brought here?" He shouted again, but there was still no reply.
Sighing, Izuru shuffled away from the door when he heard a reply. "Don't worry yourself. You were placed under my guard. Gin Ichimaru will be by later to check on you." Said a gruff but gentle voice. "Great! And what about my Zanpakuto? What have you done with it?" Izuru asked the mysterious voice. The voice hesitated before it spoke again, "Do not worry yourself. It is in a safe place." Izuru sighed. "And who are you?" He asked. "My name is Zenrich. I am to guard over you. Now please, get some rest and Lord Gin will see you later." The voice, known now as a person called Zenrich told Izuru. Frowning, Izuru padded over to the bed, got under the warm covers and snuggled into the pillow, as he felt sleep coming for him. He wasn't that worried for his safety. If Gin had wanted him dead, he would be dead right now. 'They must want something from me...But...what is it'? Izuru thought, before his eyes closed and he drifted off to sleep.

"Time tah wake now, mah Izuru." A voice whispered, and Izuru began to stir, as gentle fingers brushed strands of hair away from his cheeks. "Hn?" Izuru mumbled as his eyes opened, and saw Gin Ichimaru, his captain sitting on the edge of the bed. "C-Captain Gin!" Izuru gasped, and immediately got off the bed, wincing again as pain went up his ankle. "Yah don't need to get up so fast. Here, sit back down." Gin said, and pushed gently on Izuru's shoulders, until Izuru was sitting firmly on the bed beside him. Izuru's eyes glanced at Gin then looked away again. "So...why am I here?" Izuru asked, icily. "Now now, mah Izuru. Yah don't need tah use that tone with me. You'll make me cry." Gin said and smiled that smile when Izuru leapt to his feet and glared at him, ignoring the flare up in his ankle.
"I asked you WHY I was here!" Izuru shouted, and glared at the Captain that he once...that he still...loved. Gin also got to his feet and faced Izuru. "Yah here...because I couldn't bear the thought of leaving yah behind...mah Izuru." Gin said, and placed a hand on Izuru's shoulder. Izuru shrugged away angrily. "Oh, yeah right! That act won't fool me, Captain! I know what you're like!" Izuru said, and glared at his Captain. "That's true...you've been mah lieutenant for years now. After all, who'd know me better than you?" Gin said, and flashed another smile. "Well, Aizen, apparently." Izuru blurted, and placed a hand over his mouth, blushing, wishing he could take back what he'd just said. If it was possible, Gin's smile got bigger as he stared at Izuru's blushing face.
"Mah Mah...If ah didn't know any better...I'd think yah were jealous...Izuru." Gin said and Izuru's blush went from pink to crimson in a matter of seconds. "J-Jealous? Why would I be jealous? Angry is the word I would describe it!" Izuru replied, and Gin chuckled. "Angry...that...Captain Aizen wasn't you, yah mean?" Gin said and delighted in the fact that Izuru's face looked like an angry flushed tomato. 'Yes! I wanted you to be with me! Dammit, I still do...but...' Izuru thought, but spoke different words instead. "No. Angry that you're conspiring with that asshole! You've gone too far, Captain Gin Ichimaru! If you can even be called my Captain anymore! And why even bring me here, in the first place...why not just kill me when you had the chance, why not...-" Izuru was suddenly cut off, as Gin placed a pale finger against his soft lips.
"Do yah really wanna know...mah Izuru?" Gin said, softly, as he traced a finger down from Izuru's lips, to his jaw, and then rested on the pulse in Izuru's neck, which was starting to beat faster and faster. Slowly, Gin began to draw closer to Izuru. Izuru gulped when Gin's left hand gently wove through his hair, bringing him closer to Gin all the more. Gin stared in Izuru's eyes, and Izuru was mesmerized by the way his Captain was staring at him. "This is why...ah brought yah here...mah Izuru..." Gin breathed, and leant forward slowly. And Izuru's eyes closed when gentle lips descended on his own...and only one thought raced through Izuru's mind... 'My Captain...Aishteru.'
