Capítulo 13: Chapter 13: Dancing In The Moonlight!
Attention: This chapter took so long because of Red Dead Redemption II. It may also be riddled with mistakes, so please point those out to me. Sorry about the wait and likely drop in quality.
Strangle To Death! Anaconda!
I sat on an alcove in the mountain, both my arms just laying limply as I stared at the bike.
Even high up on the mountain, so far away from that bike I could see the popped tires.
Turns out the sand here was rougher than the Material World's roads. Not a close call to get off it though, just extremely saddening.
I wanted to live that fantasy of driving at high speeds for some reason. Well, whatever.
I put both my hands on my knee and still awaited for the Master of my home. I had decided to leave some of the more delicate items on the side.
I heard music began to play from beside me as a new song came on, I looked to my right at the radio to see the song that was playing, it was the typical name for an Indie band.
I lay back, my knees and everything being the only visible part of me as I lay back on smooth rock. This is what Lady Harribel done when me and Mila were just Adjucha. I had thought it useless But I guess not. Mm, reminding me of Mila laying on the sand also brought me back to art.
I pulled myself back up and turned my head up to look at the moon.
I had no idea how I was going to paint. I mean, I guess I just put the canvas on my body? Wedge it in between-no, too stupid to finish saying. But perhaps leaning it against rock might-no. That would damage it too. I huffed. Was it so hard to make something durable for a world you've never seen before?
I leaned back and waited. Something I could do for an eternity.
But then the startling thought came to me that perhaps the Shinigami were waiting for me to leave...
I grabbed my sai in my right hand and was about to cut until I saw a Garganta open some distance away from here.
You know, I think I'll just put my weapon in a wall somewhere. Holding it was getting tiring. I looked out the corner of my eye to see Emilou slowly making her way over here. Judging by the aggravated look she gave me she wanted some help carrying more delicate stuff.
I let out a soft snort and got back to idling.

The Head Captain had everyone assembled, even the substantially less wounded Captain of the Second Division.
"So to summarise we do know another crucial fact about Hollows, that their abilities evolve with them. And speaking of abilities shall we recall just what those are? Now, according to Soifon and the Captains report the Hollow called Franceska Mila Rose seems to somehow harden, her companion however did not become as durable as her and showed no signs of an ability. The more concerning duo however has a woman who did not feel it necessary to use her ability, and the other constantly does and made multiple Vasto Lordes. Is that right?" No one spoke up. "Well if I hear no objection then I will continue. Now according to the readings from the Research and Development Institute we have a list of who is stronger in accordance to Reiryoku scans. I suppose it helps that the town was drained before."
Stealth force officers respectfully handed photos to all the Captains and Lieutenants present. The only exception being Isane as she was too busy healing Kira's bloody swollen face.
"As you can see-"
No she couldn't see thank you very much.
"The Hollow called Tier Harribel and Sung-Sun have been granted the highest bounty out of all of them in the case that they are purified. The other two being the same amount. As you can see in terms of strength it is Tier Harribel and Franceska Rose that are the strongest ones of them all. But one of them can clearly change that at any time. So bounties will be changed according to both ability reveal and usage. I am sure that the three of you are surprised to see these four not just separate but in different places, but that is because criminals will always return to the crime scene." His cane banged on the floor. "However, I do not hold their returning against you. Now back to the point. All four of them have interfered with the World of The Living, Sung-Sun going so far as to leave a man in a near death state and damage property. Now in regards as to how they evolved after Soifon had defused the situation I would draw your eyes to the specialized equipment that is about to be handed to you."
The stealth force officers stepped in again and handed it to the Captains and their Lieutenants. All except Mayuri who violently waved it away and glared at the poor man, making him quickly back off as he began to sweat. "You damn fool! What do you think I've been doing?! Standing here like some useless moron?!" His acidic whisper was accompanied by a glare.
"As you can see this is a birds eye view of Karakura Town, one can observe the effects of her ability." Surprised gasping made the rounds as the Lieutenants expressed surprise and shock, as Izuru lifted the mildly bulky device up she could see exactly how quick it was. The drain was rather tremendous, only a few seconds into the footage and everything was greyed out, everything having been drained of its Spiritual Energy. Even she couldn't help but gasp at that. "All of this happened long before the Captains made their entrance, this leaves the question of how two Vasto Lordes came to be a complete mystery. We have even looked beyond the borders of Karakura Town but did not see the sheer lack of Spiritual Energy that you all see here. For this reason the Second and Twelfth Divisions shall be working in tandem with one another in the following investigation."
"Excuse me Head Captain, but I'm not going to be involved in this am I?" Captain Mayuri looked towards Captain Commander Yamamoto. "I do have have some other things to do, I assure you, my Division is so incompetent in their work that the Captain need be sent for such grunt work." He widened his eyes and began to gesture with a hand. "Why, we would all be served much better if I remain here don't you think?"
His words made some become tepid in fear that Mayuri stoked his commanders ire. "Very well Mayuri, if you accomplish more here then let it be so. I suppose the investigation launched will have to be quick then, but maybe I can spare the manpower to station some Captains. We will discuss plans for this at a later date, after all it is imperative that we plan for these troublesome Hollows. Dismissed!"
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
"Christ Cyan, some help would have been appreciated ya'know?! Jeez, and you were the one that threw this whole thing."
"Yes well, you also got stuff that you wanted hmm?" I looked at her out the corner of my eyes. "Exhibit A, container full of lewd s-"
"Aw come on Sung-Sun aren't you curious?! We're not flat chested monsters anymore! If ya' got it flaunt it!"
"Yes yes I agree, I'm just astonished at the sheer amount. There are...multiple. Some of your ramshackle containers are practically overflowing." I glanced with a hefty amount of concern at the multiple containers. "Have you considered that it might be...hard...to hide those objects?"
"Eh, Lady Harribel won't mind. Mila might get bitchy 'bout it though. Hey..." She turned to me with a sly smirk. "You'll cover for me right? I can slip you some good ones."
I looked out the alcove that we put ourselves into, the same one I was in before she came. I lay my arm on my knee, my right hand covering my mouth as I sat down. "The word slip makes me feel somewhat uncomfortable with the...items that we are discussing. But no thanks, Mila could probably do well to make herself familiar with them what with Yoruichi turning her down."
"Heh! Maybe I should tell 'er that. That'll shut her up right quick wouldn't it?!"
"No, no it wouldn't and I am nothing short of amazed you don't know that yet. Well, whatever." I lowered my right hand, placing it on my groin and simply laying there. "My, it would be sad to see her become friends with a bunch of sex objects."
"Hah! Hahahaha!"
We were silent as I looked out into the distance. Almost white sand and pitch blackness. My eyes closed in thought. But then a gentle voice talked to me. "Hey, Sung-Sun, what was Mila like when you were around her? And how was it like meeting Tier Harribel?"
"Hm, not too pleasant frankly. She opened that big mouth of hers and wouldn't shut it. But she does have the same interests as me at times. Albeit I've-" I sighed. "Probably wronged her with Yoruichi."
"Huh? Why?"
"Probably shouldn't have mentioned that she was a lesbian, she was rather shy about that and I had callously revealed it. The euphoria is easing that thankfully but I probably shouldn't get too familiar with her, I guess I'll have to ease back some goodwill overtime. But we were close I suppose. We didn't kill each other, and we admired her so much we would bleed for her. I suppose the best display of closeness is when we embolden each other in our service. Those are...remarkably pleasant times. But as for Lady Harribel I almost died meeting her. One Adjucha and a hundred Menos Grande."
"Woah, how'd you survive that?"
"I almost didn't." I looked up at the moon by moving only my eyes. "I was close to tasting his blood and emptying his neck, but instead he had stunned me, and the moment he got his breath back he screamed for them to fire. It was then that she appeared." I curled my legs and placed them on their side. "I was convinced I died. A golden yellow that would never run out against a river of screaming death. I hadn't even noticed that she came to my side. I had to know why she saved me. My heart wouldn't allow any other answer."
"And...did you find that answer?" She sounded shy as she posed the question.
"No. Or I've forgotten it, its probably become common sense for me. I couldn't tell you how I breath or see, the thought of it being questioned never even occurred to me. We know, we just forget due to how simple and basic it is. But I suppose the answer doesn't matter, I'm okay serving her with quiet zeal in whatever she does."
"But...don't you want any independence? Why are you so okay with it? I just..."
"Independence? This is my expression of independence and freedom. I'm completely in control of my actions. This isn't some sort of brown nosing, but true, genuine heartfelt admiration. Some things are worth dying for. And I think we've found ours."
"But how are you so...intense about this? You're like a fanatic..."
"Because I'm fighting for a smile. Of course, I don't expect I will ever be able to ever make her smile, no matter w-"
We both hushed up and looked at the Garganta and beheld Lady Harribel. "Hm, I'll open the door and check that the room is properly cleared before joining you two."
"Huh? Oh, got it." She got up to help as I fell down as fast as I could, sliding open the door and quickly checking to make sure nothing was in the way before making my way to Lady Harribel and Apacci.
"Hey, Sung-Sun!" Apacci directed my attention to the spare bed. I elected to carry it like the others were doing and put my palm under the bed and lift it into the air. "So d'ya clear it out?"
"Close enough, one will have to lean on the table somewhat." I eyed the two beds that she carried. They were king sized and had no protrusions on the side. Sadly I could see some sand on them here and there, no help that the pillows were tottering. Ah well.
"It was nice of you to take the beds, thank you Emilou."
"Eh? Oh it's not a problem, don't sweat it."
"Just be careful with them. The pillows are about to fall."
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
"Hmph, so here we are, so not to ruin the atmosphere but we're gonna be fine against this upcoming Arrancar fight right?"
"Of course we are Mila!" Emilou grinned and banged the table with her fist. "Did you see Sung-Sun and Lady Harribel blast that bitch?! She came out smoking! We can beat this blue bitch without a problem!"
"Not to burst your bubble Emilou, but she was built for speed. If I was any less flexible then the damage would have been lesser since I wouldn't be able to land that hit." I took a drink from the shot glass and held it out for a refill from Mila. "Men are good at taking massive damage though, it may be the only thing they're good at but this one is just going to be absurd."
"Heh, You mean this guy's built for masochism?"
"Unfortunately he doesn't have the attitude of one. Otherwise he'd crumple at the sight of us."
"Heh! C'mon Sung-Sun, how bad can this guy really be?"
I took a sip from my glass. "Bad enough we'll be wincing for a couple days. We got to hit Soifon because she was as arrogant as she was ignorant. Hm, this stuff is actually pretty good Rose."
"Hm, don't knock my drinks till you drink 'em at least."
"I won't anymore, but it won't really go well, I suppose we could always hit the same spot, but the last time it played out Lady Harribel could only damage him when we sacrificed ourselves for her...this might be a tangent but I'm really beginning to hate the colour blue."
"Yeah, I think the thing I hate the most about that statement is that I'll understand what you mean by that eventually." Mila took a swig of her own drink while Apacci played with a flask. "But we can't just get away with that. We need to shore up our defences."
I leaned back, tilting the bar chair I sat on as I put my foot on the table. "Hm, suppose that's easy, but it's a bit too optimistic don't you think? Sure we've got some time but it doesn't mean we have much. We only need be concerned when Ichigo becomes a teen." I tilted my head back as I drained the glass. "Doesn't mean that we won't be fighting this guy earlier however. I would say we've got a guaranteed three months of time before we are summoned and have to fight him later." I held my hand out to Mila, who courteously refilled the glass once again.
"Just how powerful is the guy? I heard somethin' 'bout Arrancars being of different quality, but what do you mean Sung-Sun?"
"Well Apacci," I took a swig from the glass. "To put it bluntly the more human looking their base form the stronger the Arrancar, to be frank I have no idea how this guy becomes an Arrancar anyway." Another sip. "Two ways I know off, the Hōgyoku being the superior option, but the process has to be improved upon. Pick a god and pray we're not one of the first to undergo the process." Honestly, the thought alone gave me a massive headache. This blue fool and our group not being assured that we would be the last to be turned. "This one looks like an eyesore, so the risk in fighting him is unknown. I'll assume he'll look like an embarrassment compared to the original us. Who knows, Soifon's constitution is either incredibly weak or she trains nonstop through these remaining years."
"Yeah yeah," Apacci pointed her finger at me with a grin as some song played. "Tell us more about ourselves. Do we have any cool, awesome techniques?"
"Well," I tilted my head and gulped down the rest of my drink. "You can throw your stupid bracelets and make a murder beast if the three of us rip our arms out."
"Wait! Really!" She shot up out of her chair and put her hand on her bicep. "Do you think I should-"
"No." I ignored her screaming as I threw my sai into her bicep, pinning the hand to her own body.
"ARRRGH! FUCK FUCK FUCK! FUUUCK!"
"Honestly Mila, can you believe this child? She complains about being stabbed right when she was about to rip her arm off. The idiot doesn't even have High-Speed Regeneration." I tried to ignore it anyway.
"Yeah it is a bit queer." She quirked a brow at the hillbilly we were talking about.
"Yeah." I thrust out my hand for a refill.
"Hm? Oh for God's sake Sung-Sun, you're drinking them way too quickly, you can fill them yourself."
I reached out with my foot and pulled it to my side of the table. "Alright then. Would you like some as well Lady Harribel?"
"I'm alright, I can move the Hollow Mask somewhat, but it's a bit of a pain to do so."
We nodded our heads and went about our business, Emilou's was to pull my weapon out of her arm and drop it on the table while gritting her teeth.
By the time I finished pouring my drink and reached for my sai Mila spoke once again. "Hey, how come you always do that?" She nodded her head at my foot. "You keep doing stuff with it. Isn't it easier for you to do stuff with your hands?"
I pulled back my sai with my foot as I answered the question. "Well I only got these legs back recently Mila, all of you technically had those as Adjucha, so having them means I don't have a preference."
I heard Apacci speak up. "So..." She gritted it out with a bit of venom. What pitiful amount the mammal could bring forth. "Is that why you're the weakest when you evolved?"
"Probably not." I downed the glass again and sighed with relief. "It's probably a roll of the dice sort of thing, out of everyone here I'd guess I'm the most mobile, potentially the fastest upon the next one. Maybe my evolution came out the weakest since I'm not dedicated to fighting one way." I refilled and drank half the glass again.
"Yeah I guess that makes sense, but Lady Harribel is still the strongest out of all of us."
I rolled my eyes at Mila. "Like that isn't obvious, that's because she's Lady Harribel. But it probably plays a part regardless. That woman had a Zanpakutō fitting for her station, and Jūshirō Ukitake probably has some ranged ability we haven't seen yet. What is your ability Mila? That can help answer it if you're that curious."
"My ability enhances my Spiritual Pressure with each injury I inflict or take. It makes sense what you're saying but I still have some doubts."
I threw my head back and moaned. "Mila...what answer could get you to see the obvious truth?" I closed my eyes, trying to ignore the lights in the room. "Your Reiatsu becomes better with each hit given or taken, you can even do ranged attacks with your weapon-"
She shook her head if the sound of her hair was any indication. "No I can't." I stopped hearing the sound of hair rubbing against wood.
"Well you can learn. But you're not known for your ranged hits are you?" I left it at that and kept drinking, refilling as I needed to. I stopped leaning back on my chair and opened my eyes to see Emilou holding her glass out to me, some blood having made its way in the glass, never mind the outside. "Here." I poured the glass full to the brim, almost overflowing it.
"Christ Sung-Sun! Are you trying to piss me off?" I gave Apacci a puzzled look and poured myself another drink. "Oh, you just - you just drink like that huh?"
"Like what?" I took a sip from it.
"Ah nothin' just surprised you haven't spilled any of it." She held her glass tepidly.
"The drink? Just know how mobile you can be and see the disturbances on the table when you're dragging it." I rested my left elbow on the table and covered my mouth with it.
"By the way," Mila interjected. "Where are we gonna put our stuff? We brought a bit more than we expected and some of those are..." She closed her eyes, bet I knew what she'd say otherwise. She probably didn't want to bring down the mood with an insult but it was obvious just what she was referring to.
"We can carve out more space Mila, don't worry."
"Thank you Ma'am."
I spoke up. "You know, I'm starting to believe the Hueco Mundo air is making its way into the drinks. That or this is a placebo effect. I'm not sure I mind either."
"You mean you're getting drunk on this Sung-Sun?" Emilou looked at her glass with some wonder and concern.
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
Kisuke held the brim of his hat down as he beheld Masaki's corpse. "Well, I have no idea what to say. I suppose I could thank those people for showing up and pointing this out to us for one but..."
"Yes, it really isn't the best situation in the world." The black cat licked the blood off its teeth. "I don't want to rush you Kisuke, nobody would want to, but..."
"But they were just about to go home." He pulled his hat down further, his solemn eyes staring at darkness. "I...just have no idea what to say to 'em. Well, maybe a good introduction will be in need of some drinks."
"Yes, so what about Ichigo?" She inquired.
"I put him to sleep, I have no idea if that was the right call to do it but it was probably better than having him stare at his mother."
She let out a hum of agreement. "So about that wound on his shoulder, did you get the venom out of it?"
He decided to put the hat on some store cabinet as he stared at the tragedy before him. "So that was what it was. As I started taking care of him I noticed a rapidly deteriorating substance within his shoulder. I set it on the side for now, I've taken care of most everything in regards to his health, Soul Chain included. But my greatest concern is going to be how to handle Isshin."
"Hmm, perhaps it's better not to handle him at all. He's going to be upset no matter how you put it. I might just prepare him for what he's about to see. I think he'll see drinking now as an insult, drinking and other bad habits can come for him later."
"Yeah..." He looked at her, perhaps he should clean her, but he shouldn't undress his best friend's wife with a strangers hands. He shouldn't at all, it'd simply be unholy, but should he really her like this for him to just stumble on? Probably not, but how to avoid disrespecting such a fine friend? Something as simple as throwing cloth over her might be too..."Well, I guess I'll go over with the bad news." He sighed. "I just wish things had gone better. Tessai, get the drinks out. Someone's gonna need em."
"Yes Sir, the strong stuff?"
"Yeah" Kisuke sighed once again. "At least we took care to hide our property from these people."
The giant's head perked up in interest. "Do you think we will have to move the shop if those two come again?"
"Perhaps, I was just talking about whatever sensors Mayuri has made while I'm gone, not that that's a huge concern of his. But I don't imagine we'll have to move the shop."
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
"I still find it very...odd that such a giant stone drawer was needed for Emilou's most...prominent items." I can't lie, I found it very hard to word it all and not blush. No, blushing was never out of the question, wording it for civilized ears was the greatest challenge. "I...guess that says...something."
"I'll get something for your supplies as well Sung-Sun. Those will be more complicated however."
"It's alright Milady, my own can wait, speaking of the supplies," I turned to her. "If you ever have a request of me then I will gladly strive to meet your expectations." I bowed to her.
"You mean you'll paint for me?"
"Yes Ma'am."
"I see." She turned from me. "I'll think about it. But if yours are going to wait then I suppose its time to install some other stuff. Guess its time to show Mila where we're sleeping right now." Saying this I observed her reach out with her hand to a part of the wall and...pluck it from its place. She then leaned the sheet of rock against another wall. Inside was a corridor as wide as Mila's Adjucha form. "Guess we can put some of the furniture in here as well."
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
"So do you really think you can beat Mistress in a game of chess Mila? I think you got drunk rather than power drunk." I looked at a real chess match. This was actually my pick of things to take, it's just that Mila took a shine to it.
I blinked a little. Christ I was feeling buzzed for the first time in my undead life. Could Baraggan get drunk? Where did it go? I glanced down at my body, just where was my drink going?
"Well you two wonder-whores are too stupid to think for yourselves, so I guess I'll have to learn how to direct you, but maybe I should have learned from a shepherd."
"Mila." Harribels rebuttal was accompanied with a rook being took.
"Yes Milady." She bowed her head, spikes being mercifully quiet.
"No My Lady, let her speak." I said. "So you were saying you were desperate to be treated like a bitch Mila? Well I hope you pester Emilou instead, I can't be bothered looking after dogs. And could you keep whatever barking you do at some imaginary sheep inside whatever sex dungeon she keeps you in?"
My eyes widened as Mila crushed the chess piece she was holding onto into literal dust. "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU LITTLE BASTARD?!"
"You crushed-! Oh Mila." I whispered the next part. "It's like a dog shitting the bed..."
"I CAN FUCKING HEAR YOU WHORE!"
I waved my right hand at her. "Yes yes you were intended too. I just can't believe you're throwing a tantrum after all these years. Or how ever long we've spent together." I looked to Apacci who was coughing up her lungs and glanced back to Rose.
"You know something?...It sounds like you want to start a fight!" She pulled her Zweihänder out and pointed it at me.
"Are you really threatening me with that colorful stick of yours? You seem rather eager for an owner." I sighed. "Well if you insist I suppose I'll put you in your place."
"There will be time enough for that tomorrow ladies." I turned and bowed towards Lady Harribel as the others recovered and followed suit.
Mila made a troubled sound before unclenching her fist and letting the dust fall from her palm as she stared at the board. "You know," I intervened. "That's a rather accurate metaphor for life Mila. If you can't handle that jab then there is no need to assume command." I started to add body language to the dialogue but my grand sleeves stymied that a little. "We all got here by our own set of skills and intuition. Of course, all three of us fell for something at one point or another, it is important that we remember that. I mean, we needed precognition just to protect ourselves from one man when our group was made to accomplish it, we're still not safe either. Well, if that's all I'll be going to bed now."
And so Franceska Mila Rose was left alone to her thoughts for the most part. I tried. She palmed the chessboard. I try to keep us from falling into that, you think that Lady Harribel is the solution to all these problems you mention but let it slip your mind that she fell for it too. I know I fell for something but I was fighting my way out of it, ambushes happen from time to time. A hand was slowly clenched before tension slowly left her body. I'm aware that I'm not the best for it yet but how else am I going to direct you idiots...
"Wow, you're actually kind of a lightweight huh Sung-Sun?" I think Emilou shook her...fiftieth glass? "You drink damn quickly though."
"Hm, it is starting to get to me if I'm honest. Your heterochromia looks lovely by the way."
"Huh? Is she talking to me guys? What's she saying?"
"She is referring to your eyes. They've actually become two different colours." Lady Harribel calmly spoke as she went down the hallway to the bedroom.
"Huh? Really?" She moved to look at the mirror that was in the room. "Holy hell! They really do look cool! But what the hell is that red stuff by my eye? No one punched me I know that much, ah well, it looks cool anyway!"
Mila snorted in response. "Really? That's the first time you looked at yourself in the mirror? There's a fair few about."
"Eh, I never bothered to look before."
"You mean you didn't think that face of yours was anything to look at it? Well you wouldn't be wrong."
"Hey! Up yours too Mila!"
"Hm." Amusement was definitely there.
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
Deleted section...
"Because I'm fighting for a smile. Of course you become passionate about who you love." I closed my eyes in sorrow. "I just don't think I'll ever get to see her smile. I don't believe I will ever get to do anything..."
Obsession...
Zeal...
Love...
Understanding...
Emilou began to realise just what her companion was full of. "Are you...crushing on her?"
"I...I guess I am." I hung my head down by a bit. "I'm probably more soft than you ever figured." I opened my eyes and gazed outside. "Is it really wrong to want to love someone with everything you have? I want to make her smile, to hear her laugh, to give back something regardless of what it costs me."
We both hushed up and looked at the Garganta and beheld Lady Harribel. "Hm, I'll open the door and check that the room is properly cleared before joining you two."
Strangle To Death, Anaconda!
So I took a fair bit of time.
Red Dead Redemption 2. My brother lent it to me so I've been at it for a while. Even Dragons Crown has taken some of my attention. Lovely games the both of them. Now let the omake roll!
An Omake! In which the Head Captain really hates Hinamori Momo.
The drain was rather tremendous, only a few seconds into the footage and everything was greyed out, everything having been drained of its Spiritual Energy. Even she couldn't help but gasp at that.
"This power is rather tremendous Head Captain, but I can't help but wonder why one person is missing when even the most injured people are here."
"Aizen...I understand you care for your Lieutenant but she sounds simply too foolish to be in the position, I would urge you to look for someone else to fill the position. You should consider demoting her and promise she will get her position back once she firms up."
It was silent before a second before Rangiku awkwardly laughed and boldly spoke up...even if it was very clear she didn't want to. "Ahha-ahahaha, you know it almost sounds like you uh...don't like Momo Sir?" She began rubbing the back of her head, tussling long bright orange hair as she did so.
"You have the right of it. I do not approve of her lack of spine. Even the people who support her tell me no good news. Her Captain has mentioned her Kidō potential but still mentions her lack of spirit. This is unacceptable! Within our line of work one must be ready to face a strong enemy at any given time! Perhaps I should have sent her to the battlefield with Kira. In fact, I recall a promise of yours Aizen. You will be summoned next time these four come about."
Aizen was simply.
Stunned.
"Uh, Sir? I can't fathom why you seem to hate her so much? I will bring her out if you insist but-"
"Good! I do not approve of you keeping a Lieutenant who will be nothing more than a liability otherwise, you must show her tough love Aizen!"
Aizen gaped in sheer surprise.
Only Renji Abarai could speak in the ensuing silence. "But...Sir, this is a bit much isn't it? One Vice-Captain versus four Vasto Lorde? I don't see how she could be any way other than traumatized after that."
"Hmph, traumatized, unbelievable! That is exactly why I do not approve of her at all! She must learn to stand on her own two feet and fight like a man! It is most saddening that Shinigami have been reduced to people who cower behind others."
Everyone widened their eyes at his words, Toshiro pinching his expression and curling his hands into fists as everyone else was left stunned. "Sir, I believe that you are judging her too harshly, I promise you she would not so much as gasp at the sight of these Vasto Lorde."
"Hmm, I do not think you're quite right there Hitsugiya? From all I've heard she has the moral spine of my foot. And there is no spine in my foot."
Even Captain Unohana gasped in sheer horror at him. "Head Captain Yamamoto! How can you be saying such things!"
