Hide and Seek

Shunsuii and Ukitake did all the research they could in the sereitei but nothing made any sense, the strange thing was it was like they remembered to sets of events. But they didn't speak of that with Ichigo. They didn't want to make things worse, so they just didn't say anything. When he was back at the human world is when the investigations started for the truth, it was at first very strange to them. But nothing came to it but the fact that possibly Aizen came to and killed Toshiro and imprisoned his two ex followers and then left. Of course making things seem like something else. But this was only a possibility.

Grimmjow awoke on the cold floor of someplace he was not familiar with, he sat up quickly and looked around. His cat like senses made him see in the dark. But even with night vision it was fuzzy. He growled and went to punch the bars apart, when he did this a large Kido attack burned his hand.He yelped in pain and fell back shaking it in the air. Ulquiorra spoke " We are in prison." He said keeping his eyes closed.



"You are in here with me?!" Grimmjow growled.



"..." Ulquiorra left the air in silence.



Grimmjow couldn't hear anyone else, it must of been a private area of the prison, no one was around him and they were way underground. Grimmjow turned too the large gate holding them and charged it once more, yet again getting burned again. "FUCK!" He roared.



"Grimmjow, please sit down." He almost begged.



Ulquiorra was agitated and it probably could not have been understood unless you knew him well. Grimmjow turned back to the quatro espada and looked at him bewildered. Grimmjow in fact noticed his agitation, he walked over to the fellow-espada and flopped down near him. Grimmjow's eyebrows arched in worry and he wrapped his arms around him. Ulquiorra didn't fight the gesture, he actually leaned into it, situating himself on his chest. Ulquiorra's shoulders fell a bit, relaxing in Grimmjow's safe embrace. Grimmjow blushed at the sensation of his cool ghost like skin touching his. " Hey you ok?" He asked worryingly.



"Just let me sleep,please Grimmjow." He urged shutting his heavy lids.



Grimmjow had thought he was only asleep for a couple of hours but when he touched the fourths shoulders he understood in a heart beat that he was passed out far longer than that. His eyes widened at the marks on his pearls body. He gritted his teeth in anger and gently rolled his fingers over the wounds. Ulquiorra hissed at the pain and he couldn't help but ask. " W-what happen?"



"..."



Grimmjow swiped his black hair behind his ear and leaned forward " Please?" He spoke in an intimate tone that no one has heard.



"I didn't want them to touch you while you were unconscious. So I offered myself t-



"You what!?" Grimmjow barked and Ulquiorra winced.



"They stripped me of my powers so I couldn't fight back and-" He shivered in disgust.



"Ulquiorra, you will always be mine." He spoke low turning Ulquiorra face to his own and closed his eyes.He swiftly brushed his lips over his Ivory man.Ulquiorra was surprised by his words and he closed his eyes and fell into the kiss.For the first time his skin turned a different shade, a shade that it has never turned...red.

It was raining, of course it was. It was pouring, in the middle of the winter. It was raining in Japan. Urahara heard a sudden knock on the door and was surprised by three men. Izaru,Hisagi and Renji had arrived and the three did not look at all happy. Urahara closed his eyes and let his hat cover his eyes. He gestured them to enter and so they did.



---



It was so silent, had she gone deaf over night? It had been a day in a half since Ichigo had returned, he had said that Grimmjow and Ulquiorra were arrested and with Toshiro.But even that seemed fake. It was so strange, whenever she asked a question he just answered he didn't know. Maybe it was the truth, but she wanted answers...so it was lies to her.



The silence was chilling, was there a possibility she had gone deaf? When the thought crossed her mind, it got brighter. She opened her eyes to see the light of day filling her room, it was empty. Then the sound of rain was heard all around her, she wasn't deaf that was a good thing. She rolled her eyes at the thought. She rose to her feet and looked out to the window to see two figures walking closer. It was Urahara and Rukia, she tried to focus on them harder but all she saw was blurry gestures through the rain droplets on the window. She did see Rukia move her hand to her forehead in anger? agitation? She couldn't tell so she walked to the door to go downstairs.



---



"Are you sure?" She asked eyes filling with sadness.



"...no...but is all they could figure. It makes sense Rukia you have to admit?"He concluded making sure they were covered by the umbrella.



She brought hand to her forehead in disbelief and then turned to the house. " I have no idea how to tell her."



"Tell her the truth, it is all you can do for her."



"Yeah easy for you to say!" She spat.



"Rukia he did this for her."



"You make sure to tell Renji," She paused leaving the shelter of the umbrella " I need to talk to my brother." She seethed through her teeth.



Rukia entered the house and Ichigo was standing there, he could feel the change in her reitsu, he opened his arms to her immeadeatly and she did not turn away. She hurried into his arms and began to sob quietly in his arms. " Toshiro...its confirmed." She whispered.



"Whats confirmed?" Rangiku asked.



---



The rain didn't stop, the rain kept coming down.She heard it as she walked down the stairs, but then another sound the door opened and she knew something was wrong when she heard another form of rain. She gulped the lump in her throat down and continued down the steps. The words made her heart skip.



"Toshiro...its confirmed." She cried in a horrific whisper.



"What's confirmed?" Rangiku stuttered.



The couple turned to her and instantaneously the shinigami shaped up and like a true Kuchiki turned cold as stone trying to hide her emotions. " When Grimmjow went to the soul society, they were captured and imprisoned.Aizen was actually controlling the soul society again which is why the sentence was given to the two of you. He imprisoned the two and...killed Toshiro. His body is not to be found...but all the records show he is dead." She finished.



The rain had stopped again, actually everything had stopped. It was silent again, her hearing had gone out. The only thing she thought, 'maybe he is alive!? Maybe this is all an illusion. Maybe he is really hiding, is it possible for him to be waiting for her?'



Rukia continued but Rangiku walked past the two and exited the house. Rukia went to go after he but was stopped by Ichigo "Maybe she needs to be alone." he encouraged.



She walked barefoot through the rainy empty street, her hair which was brilliantly curled was now flattening. The rain was coming down hard and she finally looked up to the sky, she watched it come down like a waterfall. She leaned back and didn't even try to stop herself. She fell back farther and farther she felt her heavy body sinking into the air when a pair of arms caught her. She didn't even look up at who it was, but his voice gave it away.



"Rangiku..." Hisagi breathed holding her close.



For the first time in a long,long time she curled into his embrace and finally reacted "WHYYYYYYYY!!!!!" She wailed into his chest. But he didn't say anything, he just held her.

Toshiro walked through the castle feeling the eyes watch him he looked around instinctively. The feeling burned into his skin but he kept walking until the pressure was felt again. He winced looking up to the tall chair to see Aizen smirking at him. "Welcome Toshiro Hitsuguya." He spoke Cooley, getting up from his chair he waltzed down the stairs. " Never in a million years would I have thought of you here in front of me willing to join me and my cause."



"I am not here to join your cause. I am here to get stronger." He said planley



"But aren't you?" He cocked an eyebrow.



"..."



"You hate them now. You loathe them, they are blind, pathetic and have tried to kill you and your beloved Matsumoto."



Anger surged inside of his body " Do not speak her name." He barked.



Aizen couldn't help but stretch his smile across his face " As you wish Hitsuguya. But may I? " He asked pausing.



Toshiro's features relaxed.



" I will not say her name ever again in front of you ears as long you do one thing."



"I am listening."



"You are to become what I want of you."



"Which is?"



"An Espada."



"H-how!?" He laughed.



"You will see, but first you must agree."



"I agree." He said coldly chilling the air.



Gin grinned and spoke " Then let us begin!" He spoke in a tone Toshiro had never heard, serious but excited. Toshiro looked to the fox and watched as he uncovered Hyourinmaru.His eyes widened and he paced towards the sword in excitement.



"Show us." Gin said hiding it again.



"Show you what?!" Toshiro growled.



"Call him?"



"Daigurren Hyourinmaru!" He yelled in frustration. The sword did not come.Toshiro looked confused, actually now that Toshiro could think of it, he couldn't hear his sword at all.He gulped and didn't even bother when Gin cackled. Gin tossed the sword to Toshiro. He caught his sword and unsheathed it, it was his sword...but it felt so lifeless.



"Come this way." Gin gestured turning towards a door.



Toshiro was taken to a room where he was given a bed,desk and window.Not the best view but he didn't care he was just surprised about his sword. He held it gently in his hand and began to close his eyes and think. He tried to focus but heard nothing, nothing at all. He didn't even notice Gin leave but he was alone, he was to focused on his beloved weapon.



"Come one Hyourinmaru, whats the matter? I have you now."he whispered leaning his forehead against the handle.



But nothing was heard...nothing but silence.
