Failed Report and the Missing Hougyoku
Entering Aizen’s throne room Szayel kneeled to one knee before his throne. “Lord Aizen, I have come to inform you of Zeshin’s results.”
“Proceed,” Aizen told him.
Szayel nodded, “His end results have uncovered your suspicions on him.”
Aizen smirked, “Very good, Szayel.” He stood from his seat and turned to the pedestal of his throne. “Where is Zeshin now?”
“I sent him away after I was finished with him. I would think his room, but then again. If he is here for what you believe…” Szayel stopped short as he watched Aizen retrieving the hougyoku.
Opening the pedestal to the hougyoku Aizen’s eyes widened, his body tensed and with a quick snap of his head and narrowed eyes with the flames of hell burning within them, he looked to Szayel.
“All the Espada are to report to my throne room! At this instant!” Aizen told Szayel.
Szayel stood from his knelling position and look at the enraged Aizen. He bowed quickly, “Right away my lord.” Szayel then sonidoed from the room to find the other Espada.
Vanishing Zanpakuto's
It appears my absent here for the day was insignificant. After this morning of having the arrancars flood my throne room from missing zanpakuto. I went off to find the cause of this. It was a failed attempted in finding the cause behind this. It seems over half of my arrancar army has no zanpakuto. *sits down on throne* This is truly bothersome. These strange and inexplicable disappearances are starting to get my temper up. *gets up and quickly goes to where the hougyoku is hidden, sees it, conceals it once more* I believe I need to have a talk with someone that might be able to answer a few of my weighing question about all this. *turns and leaves the room*
The Next Day.
Toshiro woke up from his slumber, it was a very light one since he was in enemy territory, and sat up in bed. He was suppose to meet Aizen in the throne room today. No doubt he was going to try and use the Hyougoku on him. He got out of bed and placed his zanpakuto at his waist, and proceeded out the door.
As he walked the halls of Las Noches he was unable to come up with any excuse, well he had one, but that was the very last resort. He stepped into the chamber room to find it empty. Was he too early? Where was everyone?
He knelt down on the ground and waited silently.
Waiting
*enters room and sit in my throne* He should be here soon. *smirks* Zeshin your life is about to change greatly.
Betrayal, for a Fraction...? Part 2
((I heard through the grapevine that the commentary for 'Betrayal, for a Fraction...?' should be shared. So here it is Betrayal, for a Fraction...? Part 2, all cleaned up and now a post.))

Ulquiorra: *enters Aizen's throne room* You requested audience with me?
Aizen: *narrowed eyes* Yes. I did Ulquiorra. It is about your fraction.
Ulquiorra: *watches Aizen carefully* She has become an object of irritation. I will make no excuses for her actions. *waits for Aizen to continue*
Aizen: Yes, I am sure she is. If you see her that way. I can have her removed from your side. *waits for his reaction*
Ulquiorra: *steps forward suddenly* I can see how that could be a necessary course of action. I will make her submit to you in time. *lapses into silence*
Aizen: *get the response I was seeking, smirks* I believe this time has ended. *calls for Ulquiorra's fraction* Kita.
Kita: *is pulled from behind Aizen's throne by Loly, jerks away from her* Let go of me!! *is struck by Loly, growls* You bitch! *narrows eyes*
Aizen: *looks from the corner of my eyes seeing Loly ready to strike Kita again* Enough Loly, your job here is done. *watches Loly bow and quickly leave* Come here, Kita. *watches her hesitate*
Kita: *wipes away the blood from my mouth to the back of my glove, hesitating to move forward. Looks at Ulquiorra seeing him standing casually at the base of the throne* Master?
Ulquiorra: *makes no move forward, but watches you* Do not speak. *tears his eyes away from Kita and looks back to Aizen*
Kita: *looks away from Ulquiorra moves slowly toward Aizen thoughts racing in my mind, thinks to self* I must not dishonor my master. *holds head high and steps eagerly forward toward Aizen stopping in front of him, bows head, lowering self to one knee* Yes, Lord Aizen.
Aizen: *rests hand on top of Kita's head as she bows before me, smirks looking down on her* I think that is the first time you have ever called me lord Aizen. *looks to Ulquiorra* Kill her. *steps back from Kita*
Kita: *eyes widen when I hear what Aizen orders Ulquiorra to do, slowly my eyes go shut, thinks to self* Again... Again Ulquiorra will end my life. *tears fall from my eyes, but does not lift my head or try to get away*
Ulquiorra: *makes no hesitation to draw his blade and looks down at his reflection in the steel* Such an easy task, my lord. Are you truly using me to the best of my ability? *reflection shakes a bit before leveling out, sonidos forward and cuts one of Kita's tears in half, stopping only when a blade crosses his at her neck*
Aizen: *thrusts Ulquiorra’s blade back from Kita's neck and stops my blade against Ulquiorra's throat, watches a stream of blood trickle from under my blade* Questioning me again Ulquiorra? *looks into his deep dead eyes waiting for his answer*
Ulquiorra: *watches his blood run down Aizen's blade* I do not question you out of insurrection. *looks past Aizen at Kita* You leave me to watch the woman and Kita like a fool chasing after skirts. *looks back at Aizen*
Aizen: *narrows eyes* If I remember correctly. You requested Kita as your fraction. Did you not? How is it; you can place that blame in my hands? *adds pressure to my blade against your throat*
Ulquiorra: It is not blame, but responsibility as I recall. *presses neck further into blade* Or do you find that disagreeable too? *uncharacteristically insolent*
Kita: *remains quiet still kneeling as they talk above me, sees blood drip to the floor next to me, knows its Ulquiorra's* Lord Aizen *speaks softly with head still lowered* Please, do not blame my master for my disobedience. He has done everything in his power short of killing me to make me one of yours. It is not him. It is me. If someone should be punished it should be me.
Aizen: *smirks looking at Ulquiorra* She still tries to protect you even though you were going to kill her. Again. *withdraws sword from Ulquiorra and jerks her from the floor looking into her eyes* Then. I will say this only once, so listen well, my dear. *looks into her eyes lifting one hand to cup her cheek and draws near to the side of her head* If you defy your master once more. I will kill him, and you will watch as I do so. Then. I will feed 'you', to the remaining Espada. *let’s hand slide from her cheek as I turn and disappear into the shadows*
Kita: *drops to one knee quickly lowering head in front of Ulquiorra* Forgive me for intervening master, but I could not ... *closes eyes tightly wondering if Aizen would have truly killed Ulquiorra*
Ulquiorra: *wipes neck with hand and looks at blood* The barriers separating our rank are crumbling one by one. Perhaps I am more like you after all. *crouches to Kita's level and smears a 4 1/5 on her exposed shoulder, then stands up to leave*
Kita: *does not look at what he wrote on my shoulder, but rises in silence and follows him slowly from the throne room*
