@Juushiro Ukitake:

Aizen stopped before he exited the room and looked slightly over his shoulder at Juushiro.

"Evil? There is no evil here. Only the ones strongest enough to follow their beliefs." He turned away from Juushiro his words trailed behind as he left the room. "Unlike the mindless drones in the Gotie 13."

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Turning his back to Juushiro to leave he smirked.

"Your chivalrous acts will be the death of you Ukitake. Especially with the woman Kita. She is not worth all this nor a life. She will turn on you all one day." He stepped toward the exit. "Dwell on that thought while you're down here."

@Sousuke Aizen:

Gin disappeared down the hall, intent on his current goal of vengeance.

@Silver Daemon:

Aizen smirked, nodding his head.

"I have no doubts, old friend."

@Sousuke Aizen:

Ironically, Gin's anger faded marginally at his master's voice. He retracted Shinsou, letting the weak captain fall to the ground, coughing miserably.

"Nothing that I won't fix immediately," he hissed. A moment later he chuckled. "Time to swallow another one whole." He swept past Aizen then paused on the other side of the door. "I will have her back." His eyes flashed beneath his bangs.

@Silver Daemon:

Stepping from the shadows after Gin's attack on Juushiro, Aizen looked calmly his way. Gin's eyes were narrowed and a vain on his forehead bulge. In a soft spoke tone Aizen asked.

"Is there a problem, Gin?"

@Silver Daemon:

Kita's eyes were wide and she hit the ground in the garguanta hard knocking the wind from her. Before she could get up the entrance of the gate closed in front of her. On her hands and knees she punched the ground a few times cursing Juushiro for his foolish act of chivalry.

"WHY!? WE COULD HAVE MADE IT! DAMN YOU JUUSHIRO!"

Hot tears rolled down her cheeks and landed to the dirt flooring under her. After a few more sobs she pushed herself from the floor, turned and took off like a flash. She had to tell the others. They could save him with her there to open the gate. There was no time to waste. Before she knew it Kita stepped out of the gate into the human realm standing in front of Urahara's shop.

((Moving to No Deposit No Return; Part 2))

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Shinsou sang true and sank into the weak captain's shoulder, forcing him back against the wall. Gin smiled nastily as his blade broke through Ukitake's shoulder-bone. "That was a very foolish thing to do, captain," he hissed.

Very foolish, Kita dear, he repeated in his mind. He was done playing nice.

"I don't like it when my plans go to complete waste," he snarled.

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Kita shook her head quickly. "I won't leave you behind. I can carry you. I am not some weakling. Yes it will slow us down, but we will make it. I know we will." She walked over taking his hand in hers to help him from the bed. "Come on. We can do this. I know we can."

The second she and Juushiro were positioned in front of the hole in the wall to exit, Kita's head quickly turned toward the front of the room. Someone was coming and it was Gin. His reiatsu flowing in a way that scared Kita.

She turned back quickly taking a step forward. "We have to go now!"

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Finally it came to her. She walked Juushiro over to his cot and sat him back to it. She brushed his long silver hair from his face again as she kneeled down in front of him looking into his dull eyes. She shook her head saddened at the condition she was seeing him in. Why are people as kind and gentle as Juushiro always stricken with a serious illness? Their world was far from fair. She sighed and spoke softly to him.

“I have to cero a hole in the wall. We will have to move quickly after I do it. I am sure it will draw attention to us. Are you up for this?” She shook her head knowing for a fact he was not. “It don’t matter if you are or are not.” She said standing again. “I will carry you.” She stepped away from him to the center of the room. Bringing her hand up palm flat and pointed at the outside wall she fired her cero. The blasted echoed off the walls as small particles of the stone wall dropped around them.

She turned looking to Juushiro to make sure he was alright with all the dust that kicked up from the blast. Seeing he was alright she turned again facing the darkness of Hueco Mundo and snapped her fingers. There before her about hundred yards away the garguanta opened.

After he had left Kita, Gin's thoughtful mood shifted back into his high from completely fooling those fools of Soul Society's. To be honest, he hadn't thought each piece laid out would work, but they had. He laughed quietly, making a few Numeros scurry out of the nearby hallways.

"If this is what I can do, they really don't have a chance against Aizen, do they?" He smirked. "And I'm back here already. I wonder -" Gin turned into the hallway that held Kita's cell. A thin trail of smoke rose up to greet him.

He frowned.

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Kita nodded and snapped her fingers. However, the gate did not open for her. She snapped them again. The same thing. Still no gate opened before them.

She looked quickly around the room and realized the room was too small to open the gate. She needed more room. But where? Her eyes darted around the surroundings there was no place big enough to open the gate where they were.

Looking to Juushiro she knew she could not risk walking him out into the hall where there was more room. She drew her hand to her head and thought.

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Kita shook her head. "You have know me long enough to know I could never do that. And call me what you will, but if I die I am reborn. You don't get that second chance. So shut up and go with it."

She moved down to his legs and unbound them. She then slowly helped him up into a sitting position steadying him as he sat there on the cots edge.

"Are you alright? They did not harm you anymore did they?"

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Kita laid to the floor looking through the small crack under the door. A few more moments and Gin's shadow then disappeared from in front of the door.

She then pulled her knees tightly up to her chest her legs tucked in closely to her body. She then brought her bound hands from behind her to the front of her. She unbound her legs first then worked on the binds on her wrist. Once she was free she walked to the door and listened for any outside passer-byers. She even got on her hands and knees and peered under the door. She was only going to get one shot at this and she had to make it count. It hadn't been long since Gin had dumped her in there, but if she was going to act now would be the perfect time. They would never expect it. And if it was anything like the last time they dumped her in this room they would not come check on her for days in a row if not weeks.

Verifying the hall was clear and all was silent and calm in the palace she went to work in getting out of the room. She could feel Juushiro's fluctuating reiatsu which worried her to no end. He was weak and growing weaker. She had to get to him and get him out of there. NOW. She knew where they were keeping him and getting him out of there would be a cakewalk. It was just getting to him from where she was without being noticed by someone that knew she was in lockdown. Finally ready, she formed a small cero and destroyed the lock on the door. Turning the handle she slowly opened the door and looked out in the hall.

"Clear." She spoke to herself stepping from the room closing the door behind her.

She then stepped quickly sonidoing when she could. Finally, she found herself standing in front of Juushiro's cell. Again she used a small cero to unlock this door as well. She went to Juushiro's side resting her hand to his shoulder and brushing his long silver hair from his face. His eyes opened and widened when he saw Kita.

"Shhh..." she said softly to him moving closer to his ear. "I have to get you out of here. Bare with the pain for a bit and I promise it will be over soon." She whispered to him.

@Kita Miyamoto:

Gin shook his head and continued walking down and out of the hall. He'd given her his last warning. If she still acted ....

"It would be natural for consequence to follow, right?" he asked the empty hall, half jest, half serious. The silver bangs slid over his eyes, and he thought back to the times in Rokungai before he had found..

"Life really is simpler before that and now."

@Silver Daemon:

Kita shook her head with Gins statement of giving Aizen the idea to obtain Juushiro.

"Why would you do that?!" She practically screamed at him. "Juushiro is a kind and gentle man! He don't deserve this!"

She tried to stand only finding herself falling over to her side as she bumped her head on the stone floor. She fell silent for a few second then mumbled.

"He will find me and he wont stop until I am with him again." She looked up at Gin with narrowed eyes. "If I were you Gin. I would watch my back. He won't show mercy to anyone no matter how weak or strong they are."

@Kita Miyamoto:

"You know, if you keep sprouting all that rubbish, Kita dear," Gin interrupted in a bland voice, "I am going to be the one hurting you in Aizen's fun back room."

When she fell silent, he turned around and faced her one last time, eyes twin pools of azure fire. "Let's make one thing clear. I am doing this for myself, no one else, and I quite enjoy killing and pain." He scratched his head. "There are just exceptions. So far, that small list has included you."

He paused, flashing a sinister grin. "And sorry, my dear, Ukitake-san never made the cut. In fact, I'm the one who gave Aizen-san the idea." He spun around, hesitated, then added, with a slight frown. "If he dies easily, I'll be the one disappointed."

Gin chuckled, waving at the cell with the less naive seraph, and gave her his last parting words. "Be a good girl and stay put. I don't want you falling into the cold water below the thin ice you're walking on. Bye for now."

@Silver Daemon:

Kita's eyes widened when Gin revealed Juushiro's weakness to her. She then started to wriggle slightly while being over Gin's shoulder. She was dealt with a quick jerk from Gin to settle her down.

"He needs medical attention! Let me go to him!" Kita said sternly to Gin as she turned looking at the back of his head.

He then opened the door to a room and dumped her to the floor. She let out 'HUMP' as she landed and looked up at him. He spoke as he slowly walked back to the door.

"I tried to warn you. Spend the time in the dark to consider your options." He held up a hand. "Do you have a chance of saving him if you are under Aizen's thumb again?" He closed the door.

As the door closed behind him Kita screamed out. "IF YOU LET HIM DIE I WILL BE A THORN IN EVERYONE'S SIDE IN LAS NOCHES. I WILL NEVER BEND IF HE DIES. I WILL DIE BEFORE I GIVE ANY OF YOU WHAT YOU WANT! I SWEAR THAT ON THE HEAVENS ABOVE! I SWEAR IT!!"

She fell to her side and gazed at the small light that shown under the door. She could see Gin's shadow on the other side as he stood outside the room.

"Are you really willing to kill to save another? Are you really willing to kill to prove you're right? It has to be hard to watch all your friends die just because of one person--"

She was quickly cut off by Gin as he spoke to her again.

@Kita Miyamoto:

Gin turned to Ulquiorra and Ujikiyo and whistled. "Well, you know what to do. Make sure the foolish captain can't move." He hoisted Kita over his shoulder. "I'll deal with this one." He headed towards a group of rooms in the other direction, where Kita's clone had been held, muttering under his breath in a way that she could hear.

@Silver Daemon:

Aizen looked back to Ulquiorra over his shoulder. He stood there in his normal vacant eyed look. Not caring if life moved forward or not. He slowly turned looking back at Gin.

"Lock them both in a cell." Aizen told Gin walking away from them. "And not together."

His last order echoed off the walls of the room. "Bind Ukitake so he can not move. I would hate to think he would try to kido his way out of the palace."

Aizen then disappeared into the back room.

@Sousuke Aizen:

"Nah, I know she gave me this bump and I have already chosen how to repay her for that," he waved his hand, not at all perturbed by the intense look in his master's eyes, "but I did promise Ulquiorra a bonus for playing along with my game. I think giving him a broken Kita would be breaking that little promise."

@Silver Daemon:

Aizen stopped walking and looked Gin's way. "Did the bump she gave you on the head knock you senseless, old friend? Or are you willing to overlook that fact?"

His eyes narrowed wondering what Gin might be up to.

@Sousuke Aizen:

Gin raised his free hand. "She did come with me quietly," he reminded Aizen in nonchalant voice. "Let's give her one more chance to redeem herself. One more truth from myself. It's been a good day."

@Silver Daemon:

Aizen looked on at Gin and Kita his eyes narrowed at Kita's statement as he turned his blade to her. His hand then quickly came up and struck her across the face.

"Get her out of my sight before I change my mind and do away with her." Aizen told Gin. He looked back to Ukitake speaking to Gin. "Second thought. Chain her in the room in back."

Aizen then looked to Ujikiyo and Ulquiorra. "Pick up the captain and follow us. Lets play a game of who breaks first."

@Silver Daemon:

Kita flinched as Gin held her arms down to her side and whispered softly in her ear. She then struggled against him, turning her head, she looked into his cold azural. She narrowed her bright blue eyes, gritting her teeth.

"If either of you harm him in either way, I will be the most disobedient arrancar you can ever fathom."

@Kita Miyamoto:

The reaper shrugged and quickly grabbed Kita by the scruff of her neck before his lord and master's glee soured. "Don't make your punishment worse, my dear," he called out loudly before pinning her arms to her side and whispering into her ear. "Do you really think Aizen is going to kill such a good prize? I told you to choose your battles. Don't forget all you have worked for."

@Sousuke Aizen:

Kita opened her eyes, seeing Aizen's sword extended over the top of her, at Juushiro's throat. She quickly raised up, shoving Aizen's blade downward, and away from Juushiro with the palm of her hand.

"Leave him alone!" She said sternly.

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Aizen grinned wider stepped down from his throne drawing Kyōka Suigetsu from his side.

"Maybe I should just kill you now, Ukitake. You're on your last leg anyway. I would not want you to have to suffer while staying with us." He looked Gin's way. "Wouldn't you agree, old friend."

He stepped closer sliding the tip of his blade under Ukitake's chin lifting his head as he looked into his eyes.

The doors to the throne room opened and Gin Ichimaru strolled in, both arms covered in little cuts and abrasions and one cheek bloodied. He offered his audience a mock bow, still grinning. "Check. Mate, my friends."

@Juushiro Ukitake:

Aizen smirked, looking at Ujikiyo and Ulquiorra, his eyes then slowly drifted to Juushiro as he slowly pushed himself off the floor.

"Welcome to hell captain."

Ulquiorra walked in the throne room next and deposited the soul reaper on the floor next to Kita.

He bowed his head. "The soul reaper you requested, my lord."
