Aizen Sosuke sat on his throne while his fourth Espada, Ulquiorra Cifer, told him about the resent happening that had taken place. About Opel going to the world of the living and taking the shinigami, Rukia Kuchiki, to Hueco Mundo to find her kidnapped friend Ichigo Korosaki, who was apparently at the palace where Grimmjow is suspected to live.
Aizen knew that Grimmjow had betrayed him and had decided to leave the Espada, but the man didn't want to kill the foolish hollow, it would take too much work to find a replacement where as he could take him back any time he wanted to.
"What shall we do Aizen-Sama?" asked Ulquiorra with his emotionless voice.
Ulquiorra's body was slender, yet fairly muscular. He had an average height with an ever-present emotionless expression, he was fairly short and had messy black hair, pale white skin, a black upper lip, and green eyes with small slit-shaped pupils similar to a cat's. Part of his bangs silently fell between his inexpressive eyes which had green tear-like tattoos located below.
His face was forever expressionless, but his eyes seemed to show some form of emotion whenever he let his guard down.
He wore the typical Arrancar uniform, but, as always, it was slightly modified. He wore a white jacket with very long coattails and a high collar, black sash, and white hakama pants.
Like most other Arrancar, he possessed remnants of his former form during his life as a hollow. His hollow hole was located on his sternum. The remainder of his Hollow mask lies on top of his head, forming a broken, horned helmet.
On the left side of his chest was his Espada Rank Tattoo, which tells whoever it may concern that he was the fourth Espada.
"We don't have to do a thing." said Aizen. "The Kuchiki brat will do our work for us." he said with an evil smile. "Let her take her little friend, it doesn't matter to me, what I need you to do is to find the king of hollows and Shinigami and tell me his whereabouts." Ulquiorra bowed deeply before exiting the throne room, and began looking for said king.
To run and hide
And to lie in wait
Just for you
Now hold on a moment
What do I see?
What's that with you?
The lies that you tells
Or what's straight and true?
"Let's go!" he said in a hurry, and they both ran towards the beautiful white palace.
Rukia couldn't stop staring at the strange, smiling hollow. If she didn't know any better, she would have said he was ignoring her in favor of his strange fantasies…Whatever they might be.
For a moment, his smile grew bigger in a creepy way and then he looked at her.
"What?" she asked him, but instead of answering her he just blushed and looked away, hiding a nosebleed she obviously saw. Her own face grew hotter and she decided not to look at the hot-and-not-taken Arrancar directly.
""How long do you think it'll take for us to get to the palace?" She asked curiously, willing herself to avoid looking at him. She looked like a tomato with black hair and she knew it, but that doesn't mean that she wanted him to know that. He answered her, not even looking at her, even though his reasons were a lot more active then hers because if he was looking at her right now he would be kissing her without a moment's hesitation. Before his thoughts entered naughtier territories, he stopped thinking about it… That is, until he thought of something. 'What's keeping him from kissing her right now?' he grinned maliciously. For some reason, all that the hollow could do was smile widely and, before Rukia could do anything, he turned around so he could face her and kissed her.
To say that she was surprised would be an understatement. Her mind had gone into a trance-like state as she tried to comprehend what just happened a moment ago. Although, while her mind was busy thinking, her body automatically reacted and kissed Opal back.
Opal smiled a knowing smile. It was her first kiss, he knew from her reaction that much; after all, she had no idea what she was doing.
He took her hand and stroked her glossy black hair lovingly. She moaned, not knowing she was doing it. One could say her instincts now ruled over her, something that hollows thought shinigamies didn't have, but, hey, everyone can get things wrong once in a while now can't they? After all, she thought that he had no feelings!
His mind began conjuring thoughts about the things he could do to her. He pinned her to the white sands and smiled, that would be awesome…
It's your turn now
So spill it out
Your secrets
Your lies
All that is you
All of your darkness
Where your demons lie
"We never wanted him to leave us. After all, our other children died. We wanted him by our side forever and for a while all seemed good. We were happy. That is until your grandmother, Tsuvasa, died. We were left alone again and Isshin couldn't stay here anymore. He wanted to go to the world of the living to see where his mother came from. I didn't stop him. Sometimes, I wish that I had stopped him and, at the same, time I'm glad I didn't because that where he met your mother, Misaki.
Ichigo's breath was taken away when he heard that part. He was utterly confused. He didn't know what to think anymore. If what this person, an impostor for all he knows, says is true, then that means his father wasn't who he thought he was. Ichigo stole a glance at Grimmjow and discovered that the said teal haired male was looking at him with a surprised look. His eyebrows were raised in a questioning manner and Ichigo shrugged as if to say, 'I have no idea what this old man's talking about'.
Grimmjow laughed to himself and nodded and then they both looked back to the old man who was lost in his thoughts.
"What happened then?" asked Ichigo trying to get his grandfather back into reality. The old man looked at him as if he suddenly remembered why he was even narrating this tale and then he smiled a small smile full of sorrow.
"It was terrible. Your father had never left home before and we were very protective of him. He didn't even have the smallest of chances." the old man sighed then looked at the two to explain what he had said. "After all of that happened, he told me himself and those were his exact words... "
~Flashback~
Kurosaki Isshin looked around admiringly. The world of living was so different from where he had lived. For example, the glowing blue sky or the wind that was playing with some of the fallen fallen leaves. He was so caught up in this place and its wonders that he didn't noticed the ones who were following him.
They were not hollows, because hollows would never hurt him. He knew they'd never do it, but it wasn't just because he was really strong or because he had all the powers of a hollow even though he didn't have an inner hollow. No, they would not hurt him because they could sense who his father was. His stalkers didn't know a thing about his family. They wore black clothes that resembled those of his father, but still looked different somehow. Sort of like those he was wearing, but still different.
They looked at him with worried faces and started whispering between themselves.
"Do any of you know who that is?" they asked each other.
The stranger wore the same uniform like them, his power level was that of a captain's, but he had nothing except that. He didn't have any symbol that could identify himself.
"Maybe we should call headquarters….They might know something about him..." said a shinigami with light brown hair. The others nodded, agreeing with their friend.
One of them pulled out a green cell phone and dialed the familiar number.
"Oh, Appoint! What's up?" asked a small voice from the other side of the line.
"I'm fine. We're calling to ask if you sent any more shinigamies to the city?" Appoint asked, looking at his friends.
"No. We didn't send anyone else...Why?"
"Well, we kind of found a shinigami exit a Garganta by himself ..." Said Appoint with a confused voice while his friends nodded in agreement.
There were five of them in total and although they weren't strong, they were excellent at teamwork.
"You say that he came from a... Garganta?" The voice asked, amazed at the news.
"Yes" appoint answered
"Wait a second. I'll ask the captain for further instructions..."
While they waited, Appoint had turned the phone on speaker mode. Soon, the person on the other end came back.
"You must capture that shinigami and bring him back with you. Do you understand? Don't kill him, simply capture him, ok?"
"Yes," they answered simply.
I want to know
All about you
The things that you like
And things you dislike
Your soul
Your very essence
Your goal
Isshin decided that he would leave Karin and Yuzu at a friend's house…maybe with Kisuke. Then, he would rush of to save his precious son that seems to truly enjoy making him worry. And if anything and he meant anything, touched his son then there would be hell to pay. After all, he was the son of the great king of the Shinigami and Hollows, King Togiri. And he would never let anything hurt his son if he could do something about it.
Isshin hurriedly walked towards Kisuke's house when he saw the man himself rushing of towards his direction. They stopped and stared at each other, wondering what was going on with the other.
"Let me guess," said Kisuke "Ichigo's gone so you're worried and want me to do something for you so that you can save your and I quote, "Darling Little Boy" the blond says, rolling his eyes at Isshin's surprise.
"Yes, exactly"
"Let's go to your house then. I'll tell you all that you need to know"
"But…"
Kisuke, rolling his eyes again, quickly pushes Isshin into motion. He didn't have time for this.
"No buts. If you want to get to him quicker, we should hurry. Besides, I have some place I need to go to. Rukia went after your son and, if I'm right, that means troubles"
Isshin sighs and they both start heading into the direction of Isshin's house quickly.
