Vale bit his lip and cursed Aizen beneath his breath. "Understood, Sir..." His hand dropped from the hilt of his blade. "My main concern...What am I supposed to do? Sit around and wait for her?" "Do you have something better to do?" Vale shook his head. "See it to the end...At full strength."
"Yeah yeah." Vale turned and headed out of the Throne Room. "What are you going to do?"
"I'm going to talk to Yumiko..."

"The Throne":Azayaka crept into the throne room, looking around to find no one. Her feet pressed against the cold marble floor, as she made her way to the steps of the throne. She looked up at the seat perched high above the room. Was this really what her father wanted for her? To take his place? To sit and look over all he has achieved? She shook her head and twisted her face, as if the thought of ruling after her father brought pain. Was she really the one destined to take his place? She stepped lightly up the stairs to the throne. She reached out and let her fingertips brush against the marble - it was cold like its ruler. She pulled her hand back to her chest, as she stood in front of it. Azayaka turned her back to the seat, her kneels buckling on its edge. She looked out to the empty room, and graciously bowed before taking the seat. Her seat. It was going to be hers. It was hers. She sat straight in the chair - her chin high as she looked over the empty room. She chuckled before rising from the chair. The throne. "One day." she said. "One day, you will all bow to me."

“It is good to see your mood is improving today,” came a monotone voice from the shadows. A moment later, the Fourth Espada emerged, hands deep in his pockets, and without looking at her, bowed. “I apologize, Lady Azayaka, for not being able to protect you from the advances of the former Seventh or being able to find you when the shopkeeper had you as his prisoner."

Azayaka looked down at Ulquiorra from her seat on the throne. "Because, you looked so hard for me, didn't you?" Her lips curled downward as she sneered at the Fourth Espada. "I don't need sympathy from you, Ulquiorra. So, spare me." She rested her head against the back of the seat. "Surely you didn't come in here to apologize for your lax approach to my father's orders."

Ulquiorra’s deep green eyes twitched in what could be anger as he rose from his kneeled position. He turned from Aizen’s daughter looking back over the balcony. He remained silent for a few minutes then looked back her way. “I was away when the Seventh made his move or it would not have happened.”
“Yeah right,” Azayaka hissed, still looking up at the ceiling, ignoring him.
Ulquiorra turned back to the scenery of Hueco Mundo. “Watching you is not my only responsibility, but I don’t need you to believe me.” He turned on his heel to leave but paused. “Your farther has me perform many duties, and not the least of which is preparing for any moves Ichimaru will make towards yours and his life.” He continued walking. “Next time the traitor steps foot on Hueco Mundo soil, he will trigger one of the sensors placed throughout the realm. It is only a matter of time.”

"Splendid." she answered in a mocking tone. "I admire your dedication to my father, Ulquiorra. He will be proud to learn that you work harder than you fuck." She crossed her legs and waved off his constant brooding. "As far as Gin Ichimaru is concerned, if he does return, your sensors will serve only as a warning to those who are too stupid to see him standing in front of them."

“I do not question Aizen’s orders,” Ulquiorra murmured then continued on his way out through the side door. “If you wish to rule, Azayaka, you should look past the obvious. Your father’s plans often have many different facets.”
“I know that,” she snapped. “What’s your point, Cuarto? You know I hate riddles.”
Ulquiorra turned to face his sometime-lover. “You should look for ways to turn your time of captivity to your advantage not brood over the defeat.”
“What would you know?” Azayaka spat, standing and facing him. “You’re the same you were before you were smashed by the substitute.”
Ulquiorra’s eyes narrowed, anger finally radiating off him. “If you think that,” he whispered, “you’re a fool.” He called his first Ressureccion and stood in front of her, his wings casting long shadows along the walls. He closed his eyes and it was gone. “If that had occurred in the first war, the throne room would have fallen because my reiryoku wasn’t in tight control.”
He continued on his way out.

Azayaka smirked as Ulquiorra left. His display meant nothing. It was clear that he had shown growth and no display was needed. But, she was not the same either. The anger and strength she found over the past few days was not enough to prove anything. She had already angered her father with her skirmish with Vale. She could not afford to disappoint him. Azayaka tapped her fingers on the arm of the throne. What could do she do to prove herself worthy, not of her father's love but of the throne?

"The New Captive": (Continued) Aizen stood out on the balcony in the throne room when Kita and Yumiko entered. He turned to face them, calling out both their names. They turned to him looking his way as they both bowed slightly. "I have come to let you know I have returned, Master Aizen." Kita told him. He nodded returning to the view of Hueco Mundo. "Come here, both of you." Hearing both women moving his direction, he spoke again. "I have something I need you to do Kita."

Kita bowed to Aizen, the pit of her stomach in knots with his request. She did not like it when he requested things of her. It always meant she had to use her powers against someone in the Soul Society. She hated hurting them in anyway, and now that feeling was even stronger with the return of her memories. She lowered her head in shame; however, Aizen took it as her bowing to him again.
"What is it you need of me?" Kita asked.

Aizen turned again and looked at her a wide smirk across his face. He reached out placing his hand to her shoulder the other, his fingertips slid under her chin lifting her head so to look in her eyes.
"I want you to retrieve the new prisoner and bring her to me." He told her.

Yumiko turned to the view of Hueco Mundo, trying to keep her face clear of worry at that statement. She closed her eyes, recalling what Kita had told her of the lieutenant, and opened them again, setting her hand on the balcony. The lieutenant would be alright.

Worry raced through her body as she stiffened, but she hid it well from the ones in the room with her. In hearing his orders, her gut told her this was not going to be good. Not good at all. She stepped back from Aizen's touch and bowed her head to him again.
"As you wish, Master Aizen." Looking up at him once more she asked him. "May Yumiko accompany me?"

Yumiko was still trying to lose herself in the scenery when Aizen waved his hand in acquiesce out of the corner of her eye. She nearly breathed a sigh of relief until he spoke again. “When you have retrieved her, you are all to come to my chamber.” Instantly nauseous, Yumiko nearly spun around before Kita squeezed her forearm. Yumiko took a breath to restore some color to her face.

Kita eyes closed. Give me your strength Master Gin. She nodded to Aizen. "As you wish." She released Yumiko's arm and turned grabbing her hand tugging her to get her feet to start moving. Once they were Kita and Yumiko exited the throne room quickly, back out into the halls.
Neither were moving too quickly as they headed toward the prison for Nanao. Moved
