"Diminishing Light": Gin stepped out from the shadows of the deeper tunnels. "Looking for something, stray?' he hissed, cerulean eyes nearly white as power hummed through his body. He drew Shinsou. "I won't let you take it," he whispered, voice calm, neutral, with a ring of finality. Shinsou gleamed in the darkness. "And only Aizen has a chance of trying, not his lapdogs!"
The barrier cracked, shattered, and a thunderous wave of power flung the hoard on his doorstep backwards, flinging back outside underneath the cold moonlit sky. "This is your last chance to run," he hissed, stepping forward and erecting another shimmering wall behind him.
"But then again, is that really an option for any of us?" he purred. He directed his blade towards Vale. "Tell me, does Captain want me alive to torment or a corpse?" |

Vale smirked at Gin's display of power. "I was told to simply bring you back. Though, I rather like the thought of you kicking you screaming as I drag you along." He drew his zanpakuto and called for its release. "How is Kita doing, by the way?" Gin's blade came whistling by Vale, slicing into his cheek and ear. Vale smiled, dampening his fingertips with the blood that ran down his face.
"To drag me you have defeat me first, stray." He withdrew Shinsou's tip, lips in a feral smirk at the blood on his blade. "At least you have a chance. I intend to make you suffer quite a bit for what you've done to my pet."
"You should really learn to control your anger, dearie~. As for your pet..." He licked his fingers as he looked to Starrk. "Go get her."
Gin sent his blade whistling at Vale again. This time, with a flick of his wrist, Vale sent a portion of his blade against Gin's attack. The two met with sparks that rivaled lightening. The force of it shook the cave. With each pass of his blade, Shinsou cut down any arrancar left in its path. Vale's attention shifted only for a second, when Shinsou pierced his side and forced him back into the hordes that waited for their chance to fight. He was losing his grasp on Kita. He could feel it.
Chinmoku's cloud was sent into a violent whirlwind of fury. Vale divided and diverted his cloud with a deafening explosion. He swung the hilt of his blade, sending a large portion of Chinmoku's cloud slamming into Gin forcing him through a wall of the cave. The hordes immediately charged for Gin. "Loki. Azayaka. He is yours to deal with. See to it that he does not die."
Vale rose from the floor of the cave and met Starrk in the opening of the cave. He walked over to the unconscious Kita as she was draped over Starrk's shoulder and tapped her on the forehead with the end of his hilt. "This is your reality now, love. Aizen is your Master. Follow him, even in death."

While in Starrk's arms, Kita opened her eyes and looked around the cave then to Starrk. "Put me down, please?" Starrk put her to her feet as she looked to Vale and pulled the kimono she had on around her closed.
"It's about damn time you got here." She looked around the cave again. "Tell me you killed that Bastard?"
She looked back to Vale, her eyes holding an irritated look.

"Not yet, love." Vale licked the blood from his lips. "The snake has a nasty bite." Vale brushes his wet matted hair from his face. "Make yourself useful, love. Fix this." He pointed to his torn ear, as he twitched his right arm sending Chinmoku's cloud slamming into anything in its path inside the cave.

Gin didn't waste any time, swinging Shinsou back through another line of the hoard. As Azayaka rushed him, Sumi's voice echoed in his head.
"Gin! They have Kita again. Vale's used Chinmoku." Her voice was hurried, nearly lost in her worry.
Gin couldn't take it. "Shut. Up," the snake snarled, eyes aflame. Azayaka's blade connected with his arm and she smirked. He glared, disappearing and kicking Azayaka in the stomach. He lashed his sword in a wide arch, sweeping her back towards a crumbling section of the cave, halting some of the hoard.
Growling, Gin whirled around only to see Kita before him. He knew it wasn't her and something cracked inside him. His knuckles turned white around his bloody blade.

Loki titled his head at Ichimaru as a single tear trickled down the face of the woman he was shifted into. "Master. Why did you knock me out? I only wanted to help you." He stepped closer to Ichimaru still disguised as Kita.
His swords were hidden within the illusion so there was no way to know if he was armed or not. "Master, what's wrong? Talk to me."
Kita's sweet tender voice called out to him.

"You're. Not. Her," he hissed. A thousand different ways to destroy the fucking shape shifter ran through his mind, each more brutal than the last. Gin didn't chose. He just acted.
"Bankai."
An instant after, a dozen different blades tore into Kita's form, ripping the face in half. Gin's gut twisted further at the sight. More cracks in his control appeared as Cero copied her screams at each turn of his blade. "Turn back!" he growled, ripping both arms off and then nearly beheading the heart-rending figure in front of him. Nearly.
"Gin.... why?" she asked.
Fuck!
He couldn't do it.
Gin's free hand came up. Using his new powers, he wrapped an invisible hand around Loki's form of Kita and flung her away.
He shunpo'd towards Kita's energy signature, swinging his blade in nearly invisible arches to clear his path. Rock, bone, and the ripples of his god powers cut into his body. He didn't care.

Kita lifted her hand touching his ear with the tip of her finger as it lightly caressed against it. Her fingertip then softly touched his cheek grazing softly across it. Vale smirked at Kita, snaking his arm around her waist and roughly pulled her toward him until their bodies touched.
"If you wanted to touch me all you had to do was ask."
Kita rolled her eyes still in Vale's grasp.
"What did I tell you about trusting people too much, dearie~? Do you really think you're safer there than with me?"
Hearing the voice of the Snake, Kita looked toward him as he entered the cave room with them. Kita shoved Vale back and stormed toward Gin.
"Incompetent fools!" Kita growled. "Why won't you just DIE!" She screamed at Gin raising her arm and sending a crimson red arch his way.

Gin's eyes widened, allowing some of the emotion, the desperation behind the rage, free, just as the attack plowed towards him. He coughed, and it died. Standing up again, already healing, he smirked. "Losing your touch, dearie?" he murmured.
This time a shimmering grey mist blocked her attack and Shinsou ripepd at a corner of Vale's shoulder.
Gin chuckled. "I wonder why you and I are missing? Could it be that we are connected?" he mused, voice now nonchalant.
Kita... come on...

Vale twitched his arm, sending another portion of Chinmoku's cloud slamming into Gin. "Not anymore, dearie~. Not anymore."
Gin pushed himself up off of the ground. His eyes focused on Kita as he spoke to Vale. "Our connection is not one that can be so easily broken." He extended his hand to her. "You know it's true..."
Vale placed his hand on Kita's shoulder. "She knows where she belongs, Ichimaru. And, that is beside her Master, Sousuke Aizen."

A soft chuckle rolled through the cave as Aizen entered from the shadows. "That is true." Aizen paused and looked to the group, his eyes falling to Ichimaru first, and his extended hand to Kita.
He then turned to Kita and smiled his own hand slowly extending to her. "Isn't that right, Kitten?"
Kita returned his smiled and stepped toward him quickly paying no mind to Ichimaru. Stepping up to his side he slid his arm around her waist and pulled her close to his side.
"You of all people Ichimaru; should know, I always get what I want." He smirked at him then slid his hand under Kita's chin and lifted her head. He pressed his lips to her in a heated kiss. Kita did not pull away nor did she struggle to get away. She only returned his kiss.

They'd succeeded. She was gone. That kiss imprinted itself in his mind, froze on his heart, a burrowed into his soul. As his power cracked the cave ceiling up, Gin snarled wordlessly like a wild beast and swung Shinsou in a blind arch of fury.
Aizen easily blocked the falling debris with his Danku shield, still smirking. "Careful, Ichimaru. One might think your heart was breaking." He chuckled, dark eyes alight with wicked delight. "If you had one, that is."
If Gin heard he didn't answer. Raw power flowed from his azure eyes, cold as winter's death. A moment later, Vale slammed into the nearest wall, splintering the rock face. And the snake charged Aizen, blade glinting with lethal intent.
Nothing mattered now.
He forgot Kita and cried out as her powers warped around him and flung him into the opposite wall as that of Vale. As her healing powers leached towards Vale, Gin stumbled up. Blood ran from his numerous cuts and another slash appeared on his chest as he harnessed another pure surge of power and swung it outwards with Shinsou's Bankai.

Kita stepped quickly in front of her master and lord blocking Gin's attack, but was hit with falling debris from the cave's ceiling, cutting her arms, legs and face. As Gin moved quickly across the cave to get close to Aizen again. Kita grabbed him with an invisible force and lifted him for his position. The force tightening around him the higher she lifted him. She narrowed her eyes at him.
"I am sick of you, Ichi-maru." Her grip tightened more as she brought him closer to her and Aizen. Gin growled struggling to become free his eyes near closed from his rage. Suddenly, the force that was drawing Gin closer stopped, leaving him hang in midair as Kita lifted her hand to her nose.
She lowered her eyes from Gin and looked at her fingertips. Blood?

Blood?
"Ichi-maru..." Gin blinked and Sumi's voice rang in his head again.
"She's fighting it, Gin. Don't throw yourself away."
I know that..... I do....
Will it be enough? a deeper, darker part of himself asked. Or will the pain drag out?
Before he could decide, Kita's eyes narrowed and she threw his form into the floor. Gin rolled, ignoring the scrapes that tore at his back and chest, to avoid the next attack and crouched, deciding his attack, blue eyes sharp again.
"Quit running away, cockroach!" she sneered.
Aizen.
Destroy him and this would be over.
He leapt upwards, bringing Shinsou out and lashed him towards Aizen's figure, from three different angles.

Aizen chuckled as he watched Shinsou race toward him. As the regenerated Loki rushed in and him, Starrk and Kita stepped in around their Master to block the attacks. Loki fended off the attacks with pierced swordsmanship as they came in on his side. As did Starrk. Kita. Was not so lucky. Her powers failed and Shinsou ripped and cut into her flesh, screaming out she dropped to one knee. Loki spun quickly going to her aid, fending of the attacks coming her way as Aizen moved in and swept her up from the floor.
He quickly moved toward the cave's mouth, but hesitated to turn and look at Ichimaru once more. He smirked as Loki and Ichimaru's swords collided. Sparks of fury, hatred and bloodlust erupted from their blades as the ring of the steal collided echoing from the cave walls.
"I will make sure she is well taken care of, Ichimaru."
Aizen's smirk grew as he turned and disappeared from the cave, Kita draped in his arms.
