Gin frowned slightly in confusion. That had not been the reaction he had thought Aizen would give at that news. As Szayel closed the door to the cell and locked it with a contemplating tilt of his head, the fox sat down on the cot in his cell. He recalled a similar response before, in his room, after the noble had drawn her zanpakuto and wounded his former master. Has he actually fallen for her? He leaned back against the wall, considering, then chuckled. “That took guts, dearie. Good work.”
Let's hope you don't regret it if he finds the culprit.

"Imprisonment of The Queen":(continued) Starrk entered the prison first with Kita still captive in his grasp. When they rounded the bend he saw the Snake standing at the front of his cell. "Gin!" He heard Kita softly exclaim as they walked toward his cell to the empty one next to Ichimaru's cell. Kita started to pull against Starrk's hold the closer they drew to Ichimaru. Finally, she broke free of him as he caught her around the waist in mid-step, her arm extended out as she reached for her Master. Starrk lifted her from the floor tossing her over his shoulder. "Where do you think you're going, Kita? Let's not make this any more of a bother than what it is. You have been behaving for the most part. Just stay here with me. Don't you like my company anymore?" "Put me down!" Kita ordered him.Starrk only laughed as he kept moving forward. "I like you, Kita. You're humorous."

Gin's eyes narrowed as the usually absent Primera threw Kita over his shoulder. What was he doing here? As Kita continued to try to get to him, he offered her a warm smile. "Don't fight, dearie. He can't keep me here forever."
"On the contrary, I can," Aizen said, coming in after, pulling Yumiko along by her arm.
Gin raised an eyebrow at his former master's dark aura. "That's a rough way to handle your prized Queen, Aizen-san. Why the change? Can't continue with your mask if she's learned your true nature?"

The voices echoed in Yumiko's mind, but she wasn't paying complete attention. Too many emotions were rising and falling inside her and she could little but let them. They'd become too many. A momentary spark of desire, despite her best efforts to remain controlled, guilt at involving so many because of her weakness, sorrow at what had been lost, panic and fear .... Doubt, determination, and heartache weighed the most heavily on her.
His response to her words echoed and burrowed into her mind in spite of all she'd heard. She shook her head again.

Aizen brought Yumiko around him forcing her into the cell as she stumbled and almost fell. The cell door slammed shut with a loud clank of metal. The lock turned and Yumiko was finally imprisoned as she was the day Aizen found her.
She ran toward the cell bars wrapping her hands around them. Tears in her eyes as they flowed freely down her cheeks. "Please don't do this." She begged of Aizen.
Aizen looked to her and chuckled. "I have been generous with you up until now, Yumiko and you go and betray me like this. I expect it from Kita, but never from you." He turned and looked at Ichimaru which wore a wide smirk across his face.
"I am sure you have plenty of commentary you would like to add, Ichimaru. However, let me warn you. I am not against coming in there and making you regret it while your Pet watches."

Starrk was still detaining the struggling Kita when he finally set her down to her feet. When he did she turned quickly taking off toward Ichimaru's cell. Starrk shook his head moving quickly in front of her cutting her off just within arms reach of the cell.
He sighed rubbing his temple as he mumbled. "I should be in bed right now."

Kita looked at him and tried to dart around him as she replied. "Then go and leave me alone." Starrk caught her by her arm and jerked her around in front of him once more. He grabbed her shoulders and made her stand still as he looked into her eyes.
"You know I am normally a calm and mellow guy, but you're really starting to try my patience, Kita."
He grabbed her wrist and looked to Aizen.
"What do you want to do with this one?"
"Take me back to my room if you're tired of me!" Kita growled as she jerked her arm trying to get loose.

Kita's angry cries helped calm the majority of the fear that overtook Yumiko from being locked up again. She looked back at Aizen and clenched her hands to keep her emotions in check. "Kita shouldn't be punished," she said. "She came to bring me back. I'm the one who left. I overheard something when wandering the halls and it brought my headaches back. Finally, something slipped through. I went to Karakura because it was the center of the war. If I hadn't been in pain I wouldn't have followed them to the shop... If.... " she fell silent and looked down.

Aizen listened to Yumiko as he looked at Starrk and Kita, before he turned he gave his last order to Starrk for the remainder of the day. "Take her to her room and stay with her. Do with her as you please." Kita's eyes widened as she pulled hard against Starrk's hold. Aizen's eyes narrowing as he looked to Kita.
"She is not allowed to leave that room until I say. Keep her there no matter what it takes--even if it means to kill her."
Aizen then turned to Yumiko.

Starrk jerked Kita toward him as she drew back her fist and punched him in the jaw. Without delay Starrk backhanded her knocking her to the floor on all fours. Kita spat blood to the floor and looked up at him.
"You bastard." She growled at him looking through narrowed eyes.
"Strike one, Kita. Don't push me." Starrk told her jerking her from the floor. She started fighting against him again as he drew back his hand to strike her once more.
"Stop it, Kita!" Ichimaru ordered her.
Kita stopped fighting and lowered her head, Starrk looked Ichimaru's way then back to Kita. He grabbed her up tossing her over his shoulder again there was no fight in her at all.

Gin's eyes narrowed at Starrk for his actions then lowered to Kita who was scrambling to see him one last time. "It will be okay, dearie," he murmured.
It was all he could say. He didn't know enough to gage the danger level of the Primera, but surely, someone who had a kid as his second self wouldn't hurt her if she behaved. He hoped she received some degree of calm from the quick contact. He knew she was panicking about the situation with Yumiko, but fighting at this point wouldn't get her anywhere. And he wanted her away from Aizen.
"Bai, bai," he waved as Starrk carried her away.
He then turned to Aizen who was still looking at Yumiko. "I'll keep my hide a little longer, Aizen-san, and stay quiet," he stated and walked away from the door of his cell.

Aizen left his eyes on Yumiko stepping toward her. He reached through the bars taking her chin in his hand and lifted it to look him in the eyes. "Tonight you will remain here. Think of the actions you took today against me. If I deem you are truly regretful for your actions--I will release you." He released her chin and turned away stepping toward the prison exit.
"Next time Yumiko I won't be so nice if you turn on me."

Yumiko nodded, falling silent again. As Aizen walked away, her fear at being locked up rose again. She closed eyes but then immediately opened them again. She didn't like the dark, not like this. It's just for one night, she told herself. Steeling herself she turned around and faced her cell. At least it wasn't completely dark. Her fingers clasped her wrist. She could do this. But how long could she keep her distance from the Lord of Las Noches? She sat down on the cot, rubbing her chin to erase his touch. He could have done worse, but he hadn't. She knew what he was now, but she didn't know if it the truth would free her heart from him.

"Combatting the Nightmares":
Yumiko started awake and grasped at the neck of her shihakusho, as her heart beat restlessly against her chest. She had finally escaped the encroaching darkness, falling asleep, but if this was what she had to look forward to, she almost wished she hadn't. She breathed in. "You awake now?" came the nonchalant voice of the man in the next cell.
As her hearing adjusted to waking, she became aware of a soft tapping along the wall. Persistent. It had broken into her nightmare. She leaned against the cold wall. "Yes, I am." She glanced over towards his cell. "Thank you."

"No biggie," Gin said. The snake fell silent, tapping a few moments later, then spoke up again. "You did well with Aizen's anger at you. I guess you are like your teacher."
"You know him?" she asked.
Gin chuckled. "I guess your memory is still iffy then, isn't it?"
"I remember a little bit more each time, but..."
"But?"
