"Urahara Command Post":Toshiro Hitsugaya arrived at the command post in Kisuke Urahara's shop with Tsukiro Ashimitsu and Rangiku Matsumoto trailing behind him. They all looked determined, yet at the same time there was a somber and solemn aura around them.

Rangiku looked over to Tsukiro as he walked beside her. He looked bad. She knew he was not sleeping well an she could only imagine what he was think was going on with Kita in Las Noches after the last report she heard about their contact.
"Hanging in there, Tsukiro?"

Tsukiro only nodded slightly, not looking at anything in particular. His head was so crammed with thoughts and emotions he could barely see straight. He sighed and slapped his cheek a few times, hoping it would make him snap out of it. He shook his head as well, but it did nothing to help.

"Cheer up!" came a voice right by Ashimitsu's ear, causing the boy to stumble and look behind him. Shinji Hirako grinned, flipped back onto the ground, and swung his zanpakuto behind his shoulder. No longer dressed as a captain of the Fifth Division, he wore a white trench coat over a black dress shirt and white jeans, his usual tie flapping in the wind.
"We're here to get chunks of villains after all~" he murmured with a dangerous light in his eyes.

Tsukiro rolled his eyes but said nothing. He fixed his eyes on a crack in the wall and tried to focus on that. Anything was worth his attention if it calmed his mind.
Again, it didn't help.

At that moment, Ichigo arrived full clad in his shihakusho, zangetsu strapped to his back.
"Where the hell is Kisuke so we can get the ball rolling," he said with a scowl, his arms crossed over his chest. "I'm already on edge and we haven't even begun to plan our attack."

Kisuke walked in adjusting his hat. "It seems a couple of us are ready to rush in there and get their asses handed to them." Kisuke walked around them and stood at the open spot at the table. He looked to Ichigo and then to Tsukiro.
"I make the rules. I will surely enforce the rules. If either of you give me grief on this mission I will see you behind bars in the Soul Society until we return. Is that understood?"

"Yeah, yeah. We hear ya," Ichigo scratched the back of his head. Tsukiro silent nodded again. "So how are we going to do this and get outside alive? No doubt about it that Aizen has recruited new and even stronger espada to face off against us."

"Remember that when you start getting over emotional." Kisuke told them looking at them both pointedly. His eyes then moved to Tsukiro. "Are you up to sharing with us what you have found out? Or would you rather someone else speak for you?"
Kisuke had only heard bits and pieces of what Tsukiro had gotten from Kita. It was time they all heard the whole story and what they had to face from what they have learned thus far.

Before Tsukiro could reply, a Senkaimon opened up, revealing Juushiro and Rukia. The captain looked pale but determined and Rukia had one arm on his shoulder as if to be there for him if he did collapse.
Juushiro smiled quietly at Kisuke's probing gaze. "I'm here for the time being, but Isane and Shunsui have warned me to be careful." He tuned to listen to Tsukiro's words as well.

Tsukiro took a deep breath and looked up at the everyone in the room. He swallowed and suddenly his eyes changed from exhausted to filled with fire.
"Kita is being held in the fifth tower, in the room across from Orihime and Karin. I don't know if that's still true, but it's a start. As for Yumiko, I don't know. I don't know much about her other than she seems lost and confused.
"The one who took Kita is named Loki. Apparently he... claimed her as his mate.He's been..." He glanced up at the ceiling, barely able to get the word out of his mouth. "He's been raping and beating her. She says he's a shape shifter. He's the worst of the worst. The other espada pale in comparison to him. He doesn't deserve any mercy. But the worst of it is that he's Aizen's new Tenth espada. I'm sure you all know what that means.
"Also in addition to Loki and the other new espada, there's Aizen's new right hand. Kita told me her name is Azayaka. She didn't give a last name, but the bad news is that she's Aizen's daughter.She says she's nothing like he is, but my guess is that she's not going to be very pleasant."

Juushiro nodded grimly. "That is most likely, but Captain Mutsu and the Captain Commander are working on finding her. If we can capture her, we may turn the tables on Sousuke and his army. Even a man as heartless as Sousuke should care about his flesh and blood."

Shinji popped his gum loudly. "I disagree. Sousuke may need her for his plans, but I doubt there's any 'affection' in him for her." He chewed the candy noisily then added, "He's got a lot of aces up his sleeves already. Prisoners, espada with new powers, shape shifting, the noble's power, how do you plan on countering all that, Hat-and-clogs?"
Then he blinked and held up a hand. "By the way, Hina-chan stayed behind, in case anyone was wondering." A collective sigh of relief could be heard around the group. Shinji smirked. "I gave the first good news." Then, Kisuke smacked him with his fan.

As his fisted hand come down on the table hard has his head lowered. He then heard Rangiku speak up.
"If Aizen is allowing that to happen to Kita you know the others girls are suffering the same fate." She sighed lowering her head.
Kisuke growled softly. "Does he know she is the Seraph, Tsukiro?"

Tsukiro grinded the heel of his palm into his forehead, trying to keep himself under control.
"Yes. Kita told Azayaka what she was because she promised her that she could keep Loki away from her if she did. But it backfired. Aizen gave her to Loki anyway."
