"Pained Night":Karin cried out again as Ulquiorra tossed her onto her new bed in the new room. Who the heck was Yumiko this girl she was nearby now? She arched her head to watch her captor but didn't need to bother. The door clicked shut. It was suddenly a lot more quiet. Gazing at the wall in front of her, the teen got the impression that this was a much less used area.
Recalling Kita's panicked scream and the Quinta's words, Karin sighed. This would be a long painful night, even if she stayed still. Her eyes sharpened. But she wasn't broken, and it seemed easier to break out of here.
Round one, Aizen and assholes, Round two... still to be determined.

"Phoning Home":Karin groaned as she woke from another nap, turning automatically and jarring her painful arm. She could bear her dislocated shoulder quietly - she had done that enough with karate and other sports - but her forcibly broken arm was another matter. Anything beyond a slow movement sent another acute wave of pain straight to her head, and it wasn't helping her situation that she had started another hole under her bed after that bat had left her.
Gritting her teeth until they ached, she stubbornly punched away at the wall before collapsing with a small cry, her body in agony. She must have blacked out because she banged her head and her shoulder pushing herself up a while later when the hallway filled with noises and a woman's cry. She hunched her shoulders as a blast of reiatsu errupted followed by someone crying. The pain made her stomach nauseous, but she was too tense to relax her bad arm. Finally it had quieted again.
With her arm's pain flaring up again, Karin didn't feel like getting up and getting the sandwich on the table. But she didn't have much else - Frowning slightly, Karin dug her good arm into her pants, pulling out the soul phone. It sounded like a good way to pass time.
Finding her brother's number, she paused then pushed send. She might as well reassure him.

Ichigo was getting the room he was sleeping in at Kisuke's shop ready when his phone buzzed. He pulled it out and looked at the number. It wasn't one he recognized. He pressed answer.
"Hello? Who is this?"

"So it is the correct number," came his sister's low voice. There was a pause, in which she could swear her brother's breathing stopped. "Do you really think I'd keel over this soon, Ichi-nii?" Another pause. "Ba-ka."

Ichigo collapsed to the floor on his knees, covering his face with his free hand.
"Karin! Are you alright?! That bastard! They haven't been doing to you what they're doing to Kita? Are they?! Are you hurt?!"

"I'm fine."
Mostly, she added to herself in the short pause as her Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief.
"Last I saw Orihime was fine. They've left the two of us pretty much alone, except for a few threats," she admitted. "Our keeper is Ulquiorra, who seems more sane than the others I've met," she added a moment later.

"Believe me, Ulquiorra isn't what he seems. He's insanely strong and merciless. Watch out." he warned her. "What about Kita. How is she? Where in the palace are they keeping all of you?"

"Slow down, Ichi-nii. I have Kita's phone right now because Aizen came to take her away from Loki, killed him right there and then for misusing her..." she hesitated, "but I don't think she felt safe with the exchange." She shrugged - then cursed as the action sent a spike of pain through her. Before she could continue, her brother cut her off.
Shit, she muttered to herself, he noticed.

"Karin? You sounded like you were in pain. Are you hurt? You'd better tell me if you are," he demanded. "did they do something to you?

"Fine," Karin sighed, "I have a dislocated shoulder and a broken arm." She rushed on, "Really, it's nothing compared to-" Again, Ichigo interrupted.

"what!? Why did they--" He paused, realizing what he was about to ask. "No, that's a stupid question to ask. Of course they would. As if you would listen to them."

Karin chuckled grimly before explaining. "Kita was screaming for Aizen to let her go and let her stay in the room near us, and after the night before, when..." she didn't finish that thought aloud. Ichigo didn't need those details.
"Anyways, I raised hell, much to Orihime's horror. Even with Kita trying to protect me," she muttered, half to herself, "Ulquiorra punished me and separated me from Orihime." He let her brother process that for a few minutes then changed the subject.
"I'm now in some hallway across from someone called Yumiko. It's usually quiet here.. though a couple nights ago there was a blast of reiatsu after someone cried out followed by some weeping."

"So you're all separated now," he sighed. "That makes things harder. Listen, we're coming to get all of you. Kisuke is planning an attack on Las Noches. Try not to get on their bad side anymore until we get there, alright?"

Karin crossed her fingers. "It's not like I can do much with a broken arm, Ichi-nii." She paused. "Be careful. Aizen gives me the creeps, and I don't say that lightly."

Ichigo nodded. "I know Karin. Just don't fight them and you'll be fine. I mean that. Lay low until we get there. I love you."
