"This could not have waited until she was dressed?" Sumi asked seeing the determination in his eyes.
She sighed. "No. When I believe Kita has the support she needs she will be returned to whom she once was, but even Tsukiro is too shaken to help her deal at this moment."
She looked at Gin as he stood there his eyes cast away then looked back to her. "Was there anything else?"

He shook his head and turned for the door. He hesitated then turned around again, looking to the side. "After you dress - and if the brat can't help her- let me take it," he hissed. "It's my mess."

Sumi looked to Gin, "Ichimaru?" He turned looking at her. "This could cost you your life. Do you realize this?"
Gin nodded at her.
"Then I will return her to you, but I warn you! If she gets to the point of thinking of taking her own life again. I will seal her away until she is taken from this hell called Las Noches."

"So be it," Gin muttered, half to himself, adding another promise to the list that tied him down. His eyes narrowed. "Return her. I can reach her."

Sumi nodded. "And it will be done." She watched as Gin left the room closing the door behind him. When Kita was dressed Sumi returned her emotions and Kita crawled up in the center of the bed she pulled her legs to her chest wrapping her arms around them pulling them closer to her. Again she rocked as she rest her head to her knees. This time no tears fell. Only shame and regret filled her mind and heart.
"Go to him, Kita."
"No, he is the problem not the solution."
"But he wants to be the solution."
"And he will die because of me if he is. I would never be able to live with myself if he was killed because of me."
"But you will allow Tsukiro to come here to save you? Risking his life?"
"Even if I told him not to he would still come."
"And Gin is aware of his part in this as well."
"Shut up!" Kita yelled aloud, "Gin is only doing this because you got involved! He don't care one way or the other! He never cared." She buried her face in the skirt that covered her legs tears now falling. "He never cared for anyone but himself."

"I beg to differ, dearie," came Gin's usual sing-song voice. Kita glared at him and the fox sighed. "If I didn't care, would I have stayed with ya that first night when Loki came for yer?" He sat on the corner of the bed with his head down.
"If yer thinking that fighting Aizen-san would have been easier on your heart, maybe yer right there; however," his eyes lifted, twin pools of burning fire, "trust me when I say yer mind ain't ready for that kind of torture. He'd break ya, Kita, even more so than you are now." His voice slowly grew harder and clearer with each phrase, losing much of the broken speech he favored.
"At least now there are pieces that can be put together with some emotional tape. If you had fought, the majority of those pieces would be in the abyss he would create inside you. It wouldn't only be a deep-seated ache of regret and shame in your heart. Your heart would be in shreds, you mind, an oblivion, and your body black, red, and blue." Kita turned her head aside.
Gin looked at the doorway again. "The only people who survive Aizen's decision to break ya are: idiots who are too dense or emotional to completely seep into the cracks he cuts into ya, such as Kurosaki's; self-righteous leaders who dance with the devil too often, like Kisuke-san; and finally, those who choose the path of darkness and acknowledge danger that Aizen-san is." He turned to Kita. "That final one is me."
He paused then reached out to caress her bruised and swollen cheek. "I saved you the only way I could at that moment. If Aizen-san had punished you then, you would have been screaming long after your throat had become dry, and we still wouldn't have been done with you."

Kita placed her hand to Gin's as it rested to her cheek. She lowered her head as silent tears dropped to her skirt. "I just don't understand why you would want to follow a man like him. Bowing to his every need. Jumping at his every beckon call. Carrying out orders to kill or punish." She looked back up into his eyes. "You're not like him."
Her hand slid from his on her cheek. "I don't understand why you would leave what you loved and cared about behind. You said it was to get back at him, but you could have stayed and fought against him by their sides. Instead you walked away from them. You betrayed them to follow a man you hated." She shook her head hard. "It just don't make sense. You say that what you do is your own way of protecting them, but in the end you end up hurting them and turning them against you." She lifted her head and looked in his eyes again. Tears flowing from her eyes.
"Do you really hate us all that much that you have to hurt us and push us away? Makes us hate you?"

Gin stroked her tears away and stood, eyes hidden once more, as he spoke quietly. "I am more like him than the others. Here in the dark is where I am most at ease. I don't expect you to understand why I had to come back here, but even before you were captured, that was my path." A crooked grin settled on his features. "You once said that you didn't need to understand me to trust me. If that is broken after what happened last night, so be it, but I am not only here for myself this time." He paused. "My actions may seem to act as a chain in your eyes, dearie, but without them, I'd be nothing. I have been nothing. My current mantle happens to suit both the new goals and the oldest promise I hold. That is all there is to it."
He walked to the door. "Sleep and decide. Within these rooms, I have not changed." He started to close the door.

Kita sobbed as he talked to her. He was right. She did not need to understand to trust him. She just knew she could. Another thing she did not understand. She jumped from the bed and ran toward him wrapping her arms around him from behind tears still blurred her vision.
"I do trust you. I am sorry I doubted you."

Gin turned around and lifted her chin, kissing her forehead. "Don't apologize. Here, I am Aizen-san's left hand. I will be terrifying. I will be cruel. And to protect you, I may have to hurt you again before this is over." He stroked a lock of hair out of her face. "Trust me and do as I say, and you will survive."
Kita nodded slowly to what he told her.
"Remember that no matter what happens." Someone banged on the door causing Kita to jump. "Stay here." He left to check the door.
Gin returned with a frown on his face. "Is there something you girls can do to get in trouble that I don't know about?"

Doing what Gin told her as he left the room, the door closed behind him. When he returned Kita was sitting on the bed as she looked to Gin with a confused look with what he said.
"What do you mean? I have done nothing. I have been with you for the last 24 hours." She looked into his eyes not liking what she saw. "What happen, Gin?"

Gin leaned against the wall, folding his arms. "Aizen-san is summoning the girls to the throne room, and their keepers. It seems like a interrogation to me...."

Kita's eyes widened fear filling them as she shook her head. "No. Please don't make me face that man. I have not done anything. I have been good." Her tone panicked. She looked in Gin's unyielding eyes. "Please Gin. Tell him..." She drew her hand to her head. "Tell him..." She looked back at Gin. "Tell him I died for all I care. Just don't make me go."

Gin frowned even deeper then smirked. "Strip and get into the bed, Kita," he ordered firmly. Blushing, Kita started to obey. Gin turned around to allow her some privacy. "I will tell Aizen-san you are still exhausted from last night's 'demands'. If that doesn't please him and I have to come back for you, then only respond when spoken to, and keep your eyes to the floor." He turned when he heard the sheets rustle and Kita pull them up over her head. "Understand?"

Kita nodded giving Gin a confused look. "But why did I have to remove my clothes?"
