Hide and Seek

Aizen looked back in surprise dodging the attack from the female. Rangiku yelled "Captain get up!" She blocked Aizens attacks.



When she read the letter she first complied and listened but then it occured to her...Gin was warning her. She didn\'t understand why...but he was doing that. So she hurried over here as soon as she could.



Renji yelled "Hoero Zabimaru" In a combining attack with Senbenzakura the snake like sword threw itself at Aizen Aizen hopped up dodging all of the attacks except the petals. He stepped back and landed waving his hand. The petals fell to the ground.



Toshiro looked into Rangiku\'s eyes she was fighting and fighting hard to defend him. He rose to his feet feeling his sword pulse. Aizen leapt back to Toshiro, his hand began to glow once more. " now then where was I, pet."



"Daiguren, Hyourinmaru!" In a blizzard the sword came to life freezing the areas around him. The dragon crashed through the door after Aizen. His eyes widened at the sudden awakening of the sword. Grimmjow ran up the iced paths and brought his hand back and lunged at Aizen. Aizen swiftly kicked the panther espada aside. Ulquiorra lifted his fingers to Aizen, a beaming green cero flew into Aizen. Aizen fell back in pain. He looked up luckily had moved his head to the side just in time. It still burned a trace of his cheek. He glowered at his former Espada.



"Pathetic. Gin, rid the world of this trash." He nodded at Grimmjow. Gin walked towards Grimmjow and was stabbed by Aizen swiftly with his sword. Gin looked up to see the sword had cut through the sheath of his Shinsou and had broken through to his internal organs. Gin\'s eyes widened " How dare you betray me."



"Speak for \'ur self." He grinned.



Grimmjow pulled growled leaping up taking the sword in hand and pulling down. It cut his hand up but he kept the sword in hand as he reached over his own body with his right arm to attack Aizen. Aizen grabbed Grimmjow Writst and cracked it, making the Espada cackle. Aizen growled and through him down. He turned back to see Tousen being attacked by Ulquiorra and Renji. He knew that he couldn\'t win any of the battles to come alone. He needed to call his espada and fast.



Ulquiorra sensed human-shinigami approaching and spoke in a directing tone " Hurry and stop him!" Ulquiorra shouted sternly. Toshiro lifted his sword and commanded the dragons attacks towards Aizen. As Toshiro threw the attack at Aizen a blind sided army of hollow/vizards appeared charging the one, the enemy... Aizen.



"Aizen!"



The dust cleared and Aizen began to laugh, the group looked up to see Aizen above them laughing. They looked up to see Aizen unbuttoning his jacket. "You will bow before me or die." He spoke. " I am the king the worlds that join to this one. I am the-



It was as if something awoken in the Espada. He trembled in anger, his reitsu became crippling. Shattering the ice around him, making even Byakuya wince back. Grimmjow gritted his teeth and his eyes flared. Aizen looked down and then felt his chest. He winced in pain and coughed sharply. "What?!"



Toshiro looked over to Rangiku and looked up at Aizen trembling. "Rangiku! Move!" He shouted.



Rangiku looked up and saw why he was saying so, something was happening. She flash stepped over to her captain and looked at Grimmjow.



Shinji turned to Kisuke " What is happening?"



"He is being rejected."



Grimmjow clenched his fingers slowly into a fist and and let out an animalistic roar. Without any control in his body he swung his right hand onto his sword and unsheathed it " GRIND PANTERA!" he growled in a feral deep throat gargle. His fingers scraped against the metal, sending shivers down everyone\'s spine. His body began to transform into his final transformation and he spoke again "Aizen. If anyone is to be king, it is me."



Aizen clenched his chest feeling the jewel begin to suck all the strength from the ex captain. Aizen looked horrified at was happening and looked up to see Grimmjow leaping in the air. His leg went to a perfect straight angle and swung downwards kicking the weakening man into a crater. Which rumbled the ground. Ichigo watched in utter disbelief how Grimmjow had gained so much power. Shinji readied his sword and the other vizards clenched there masks. Aizen went to stand up and Grimmjow through him in the air, the Vizards yelled their attacks. Aizen was overpowered and was on the brink of death. His shinigami powers were now the last bits being drained.



The jewel shot out of his chest sending a agonizing yell through the air as Aizen cried out. " NO!"



It flew past everyone to Kisuke\'s feet, its creator. Kisuke reached down and picked it up barehanded. Aizen watched in disbelief. Toshiro watched as Kisuke put the jewel in an enclosed crystal case. He closed his eyes and looked back to the now pitiful Aizen. Aizen writhed in anger "NO!That is mine! Give it back!" He squirmed from the swords that held him in place.​ "Heuco Mundo is Mine! The world is mine! I am a god!Let me GO!" He began to cry out in desperation trembling in anger.



Grimmjow seethed and brought his hand up to do a cero when he felt a cold hand touch his arm and he glared down trembling. Ulquiorra held him firmly and spoke "Stop." He spoke.



Grimmjow calmed and fell scoffed "Fucking 4th." He rolled his eyes and fell backwards losing control of his now weak legs. Ulquiorra went to catch him but was surprised to see Rangiku​ catching him.



"Need some help?" She whispered helping him land softly on her lap. She brought her fingers through his long blue hair. She smiled and hugged him.



"Shut up." He grinned.



Toshiro began to walk away, Byakuya didn\'t stop him. Ichigo didn\'t stop him, no one stopped him. No one noticed him leave or so she thought. He left like a ghost and she felt her heart ache for him. Hisagi and Rukia appeared finally from the house. Hisagi began to ran over to her.



"Go."Grimmjow spoke.



"Should I..."



"Fuck yeah you should. You love him."



"Would you if you were in my situation."



"You already know that answer." Ulquiorra spoke.



Grimmjow blushed " Fuck you." he spoke as warm as the words could sound.



She got up and went to leave, Ulquiorra quickly took her place in where she was sitting. Rangiku ran towards him, past Hisagi.Hisagi stopped and his shoulders sunk. He turned to see her chasing after him. " It was always him." He smiled.

"Toshiro!" She called after him.



He stopped in his tracks gripping his sword. He was in the arrancar uniform just as expected. She said his name again making him finally turn to her. "What."



"Is that it? You just hate me now?" She asked with a pained expression.



"I never hated you." He said low." I hate myself for w-



She basically lunged at him and slapped him hard across the face. Toshiro fell back and grabbed at his cheek and looked at her in surprise. "What?!"



She began to cry. " You deserve that at the least for what you did. But beyond that...I love you." She paused and looked at him. He was taller then her. He was actually taller then her. Not by much...but enough to notice. " I love you...are you really going to just-



"Matsumoto!" He yelled startling her, she looked up at his old commanding tone.



"Y-yes?"



"If you ever slap me again. I swear I will make sure," He smiled looking down at her "That, that badge will be taken from your sleeve." He grinned as she basically leaped into his arms and kissed him.



In what she thought no one noticed everyone noticed, everyone clapped as the two kissed. Which didn\'t stop the two.

Aizen was taken to the central 46 and executed promptly, in the normal manner that was to be done. The only thing they changed was where he stayed. He stayed in the prisons, in the strongest cells. Byakuya had set up a meeting for the commander and all the captains to explain what has happened. The central 46 spoke directly to the individuals they had wrongly charged. This included Shinji and the Vizards. They accepted Toshiro back as captain and honored him for his noble acts on the battlefield and took the blame for his anger. He happily went back to his barracks and began to yell at everyone for the messes they left. Rangiku was very pkeased to be accepted back as well. Gin was actually surprisingly helped medically but was banished to the human world.Rangiku didn\'t mind the idea,but it wasn\'t surprising that Izaru left with him. It might seem strange that she didn\'t mind, but part of the reason she didn\'t was the fact that...he was her friend...he might have hurt her badly forever. But, he also brought her to understand her feelings for Toshiro. He also in the end saved Toshiro in the end for her...



Grimmjow and Ulquiorra lead the destruction of the Espada battles with many different Shinigami. In the end the two left Heuco Mundo and came back to human world and decided to live their lives in peace helping the Shinigami when needed. Everything was going back to normal slowly and it was good in her opinion.
