Having finally returned to Las Noches, Grimmjow dragged in a kicking and screaming Azumi whom he's just taken from the human world. Upon approaching the throne. He lifted Azumi off of the ground and tossed her in front of her. She tried to crawl away but he stood in front of her to keep her from getting away. Getting annoyed by the crying and screaming, he had to tell her to shut up before he got really pissed off.
"Stop cryin!! Its starting to piss me off.."
He walked over to her and squatted in front of her. He gripped a hand full of her hair and forced her to look at him. She closed her eyes to keep from having to stare at him. Hard to believe someone her age was balling like a little kid.
"Is there anything else you want...if not; I'm outta here. I can't stand being in the same room with a false leader and a bunch of her suck ups."
Grimmjow placed his hands into his pockets and turned away from Shiva. Anywhere he went would be better than standing in her presense any longer than he had to but a calm and collected voice called out to him and caused him to stop walking. He turned his head back slightly noticing that it was Shiva who spoke to him.
He couldn't really express how much he hated her guts as long as he got to fight he didn't care who gave the orders, as long as his opponents were strong enough to fight him was all it mattered, but he also knew that he would never bow to Shiva under any circumstance.
"The hell do you want now?"

Shiva stood up from her throne and slowly made her way down the steps. Grimmjow's constant disrespect was begining to annoy her, did he not remember what happened when they first met? How easily she defeated him. A small smirk formed to Shiva's lips as she stood before the crying Shinigami. Her attention however was more focused on Grimmjow for the time being however.
"Despite your attempts to provoke, me Grimmjow, I won't give you the satisfaction of angering me. Its best saved for those who actually matter. You proved that you can complete a mission and you did it so with such haste. Where my mother and Uncle not a sufficient challenge for you? I can guarantee when Ryouji Onigata recovers he will want revenge for taking his precious wife."
Shiva looked around for Gerade when he was nowhere to be seen, her disposition did not change. It wasn't hard to figure out what happened.
"I've lost two my fraccion in less than twenty four hours. I suppose that is the purpose of Fraccion, to die in service of their leader"
When Shiva uttered that sentence, the only member of Shiva's fraccion grunted and stepped forward in disbelief, there was no possible way she meant what she said.
"Mistress Shiva you can't be serious?!"
Shiva meant every word she said and cared not if it offended anyone. She glanced down at Azumi who was just laying there with tears streaming down her face. Upon hearing him speak, Shiva slowly turned her head and his direction and stared at him. He droped down to one knee and placed his right arm over his chest, showing her respect.
"My apologies, my lady"
He was clearly upset that Grimmjow would not be repremanded for his outlandish behavior but as long as he could continue to serve under Shiva it did not matter though he was upset about losing another brother so quickly. Shiva redirected her attention to Azumi before standing up.
"Welcome to our home Azumi Onigata. For reasons I shall not explain to you, you are to remain here as our guest. I must warn you however, should you try to escape. Lunamir will hunt you down and return you here to me until my plans have been finalized."
Shiva knelt down before Azumi and stared at the curious expression of sadness she wore. Did Uncle Ryouji truly mean that much to her to the point where its breaking her heart to be away from him. If its this bad on her, he could only imagine how he would react.
"Camilla"
The second Fraccion member who remained in Las Noches appeared as her mistress called to her. She kept her head lowered and awaited orders from Shiva.
"Find our guest something suitable to wear and escort her to where she will be staying, remember, she is not to be harmed. We need her to be at full strength for breaking the barrier to release the original six."
Camilla nodded as she received her orders. She gripped Azumi by the collar of her shirt and pulled her away from her mistress, Grimmjow, Luna and fellow fraccion member, Tyr.
Finally the missing piece of the puzzle was within her grasp and soon Shiva would be able to move into the final stages of her plan.

As Azumi was being pulled she continued to look at Shiva before begining to fight back. She remembered that it was her that harmed Ryouji. Though she was in no position to fight, she wanted to know why Shiva was going through so much trouble why did she even need her to break the seal on those monsters.
"Wait!"
Azumi broke free of Camille's grip on her and crawled back over to Shiva...she couldn't help but notice after staring her in the face how much she resembled her best friend and sister in-law Shukumei. Even if that was the case she had to know what she was planning to do with those monsters.
"Why...why do you want to free those monsters...they have no regard for anyone, what makes you think you can control them. You and your group of subordinates are strong, why them?"
Azumi lowered her head and narrowed her eyes, maybe she was taking this to personally but she knew everyone who was sent here to seal them away only two members of that task force and only one of them survived.
"I'm begging you...don't have me free them. Those evil, evil creatures tore through an entire task force of my friends...including someone who was very important to me and..."
Azumi looked up and her face went sour. She stared at Shiva's hair. Now she had a real reason for being here and it was to make Shiva's hair glow like the moon's reflection on water. While long and pretty it wasn't shining. It wasn't full of life.
"You're hair...is not how its supposed to be! Let me fix it for you please?? I...must make your hair shine!!"
Azumi's eyes began to sparkle as she clasped her hands together hoping she would say agree to let her do it.

Kyouteki hated how Grimmjow disrespected Shiv and wished she would let him destroy the sorry excuse of an ally. He was squatting near Shiva when the Shinigami lady started fussing about Shiva's hair. It was something that he never understood, maybe is was a female thing.
Can't we just get on with it? I want to fight... This waiting and waiting is starting to agitate me... There must be a way to get stronger, just so she can see my worth.
Although he and Shiva were close, it always seemed that she never thought of him as more than a tool of hers. He wanted her to at least feel like he was something close to a friend, but there was only one thing she understood... strength.

Was this shinigami serious?! She went from pleading to Shiva to not release the Original Six to pleading to doing her hair. It honestly piseed her Luna off.
"How dare you speak to my mistress in such a way. Can I please carve her face, just a little. Maybe I can break one of her limbs. Please allow me to teach this shinigami some respect!"
Never has she been more insulted in her life. This woman had to have extrodinary powers for her mistress to want her or any of the other Arrancar to harm her even so she needed to learn her place in this world and if Luna got her way she would be the one to teach this Azumi that very harsh lesson.
"I would advise you to be mindful of the way you speak to my mistress. Need I remind you that it was I who injured your friend. Nothing would give please me more than ringing your pretty little neck and strangling the life out of you"
Luna turned away from the Shinigami. The very sight of her was disburbing, she was everything that she hated. Bubbly, and nice...an emotional travesty.

Grimmjow smirked up on hearing Luna speak so violently. He wasn't aware that these new espada if they could truly call themselves that were out to prove themselves against their enemies.
"Heh, you talk to much. What's the matter Luna, break a nail protecting mistress from the work she didn't do. You talk a big game but the shinigami I beat down earlier didn't give me much of a fight. You are supposedly the fifth espada, why don't you give me that fight I've been itchin' for"
Grimmjow's smirk widdens as he turns to face Luna. He tilts his head to the side hoping she'd make a move. He didn't care about following orders or complaining, he wanted to fight and the shinigami were in no position fight so he had to do the next best thing.

Luna turned toward Grimmjow upon hearing his challenge. She growled at him and was visibly angry. How dare he challenge her. Had he no idea who she was. The did not call her the savage huntress for nothing. She was violent with a short temper to boot.
"Killing you would go against Mistress Shiva's wishes. Besides, I make it a habit not to fight weaklings. You're out of your league, and your damn mind. I have yet to understand why our mistress keeps you around, but I assume its for a good reason, Lord Kyouteki and I are more than strong enough to erradicate the Shinigami threat. You are just riding the coatails of our glorious leader. Do us all a favor and kill yourself before I lose control and kill you personally."
Luna turned away from Grimmjow and returned to her Mistress' side where she belonged. The nerve of the sixth espada to openly challenge her. Such disrespect should not be allowed to continue, but she would not dare speak out against Shiva not now or ever.
Regardless of how much she would enjoy cracking his skull open, there was better things to attend to, like this worthless Shinigami. There was more to her than she was letting on... There had to be something else about her that she did not want someone to notice. She was certain of it...it was almost like the air around her was clouding her true abilities and she wanted to find out what they were.
"You there, Shinigami...you're hiding something aren't you. There is no possible way that you are as weak as you pretend. release your Zanpakutou and show us your true power."
Luna turned and glanced at this Azumi out of the corner of her eye. She knew it was there and hopefully this idiot girl would not toy around with her emotions, with the way she was disrespected by Grimmjow, there wasn't much more she could take.

What good would releasing her Zanpakutou do. Not to mention she was still in her Gigai so it was pretty pointless all the same. Azumi rubbed the back of her head while giggling.
"Sorry to disappoint you miss uh whatever your name is, but my Zanpakutou doesn't have a release. If it did I would be paying you back for hurting my Ryouji"
Azumi's giggle became more of a nervous giggle, she wasn't a very good liar at all. Anyone who knows her could tell you that but hopefully the arrancar would buy it.
"I don't see the point in releasing it. None of this has anything to do with me making your hair as prettyful as possible!! Come on what do you say! Pleeeeeeeease!!"
Upon realizing what she said Azumi covered her mouth. She just lied and admitted it within seconds of speaking. Her obsession with how bad their hair was probably got her into a lot of trouble.

Luna narrowed her eyes upon hearing the shinigami speak, did this worthless woman believe that she was stupid. Luna's hearing was exellent so there was no way she was going to worm her way out of this one.
"I knew it, you are hiding it. Stop jerking me around, I'm getting tired of your perky attitude and your face in general. You release your Zanpakutou now or you and your little boy toy are going to have a lot more in common. Release your Zanpakutou now!"
Luna was getting impatient, her patience when dealing with her enemies was short, this was just making it even worse, why would this stupid girl not release her Zanpakutou. There was something about this shinigami that angered her perhaps it was the scent she carried or it was perhaps that she made women look weak, frail and foolish. Whatever it was she was tired of dealing with it.

Azumi lowered her head hearing her husbands name, she was worried about him and was dragged away from him before she could do anything to help out. To make matters worse she didn't like it when people bad mouthed him. He was always alienated for being different and she wasn't going to let this arrancar do the same thing.
Reaching into her pocket, she pulled out a candy dispenser and looked at it. Pressing down on the bunny head at the top, a soul candy popped out and was shot into Azumi's mouth. She swollowed it and was instantly thrown into her Shinigami form.
"Do not bad mouth my Ryouji. He was always treated differently because he isn't like everyone else. I won't stand for an ugly mutt like yourself to talk badly about him"
Her tone went from slightly annoying and happy to a much more serious tone. She wasn't even smiling like she always does. She really hated it when people would talk badly about him and if she had things her way she would make Luna pay for hurting him the way she did.

Kyouteki was suddenly behind Azumi, grabbing her shoulder. He knew Shiva wanted her alive, and if she fought Luna, he knew Luna had a tendency to get carried away. He smirked, walking away from Azumi. He knelt beside Shiva, closing his eyes as Azumi slowly began to become encased in ice. The ice stopped, leaving only Azumi's head unfrozen. He shifted his eyes to Shiva, speaking slowly.
"Forgive me Mistress, but I know Luna tends to get carried away while fighting. You need this one alive, so I simply ensured as such."

Shiva turned to Kyouteki before chuckling lightly. What he said about Lunamir was true. The savage moniker suited her quite well. Though personally she was looking forward to seeing what the Shinigami to do.
"I would have intervened before it had gotten to out of hand, but you are correct, she is needed alive to free our brothers and sister who were imprisoned. It matters not however..."
Shiva turned her attention to the shinigami before walking toward her as she was being held in place by the Kyouteki's makeshift Ice prison.
"Why hide your bankai from Uncle Ryouji. Its strange that I would know about it. How it allows you to augment time for a mere moment. Long enough to turn the tide of an entire battle. You hide it from Uncle Ryouji because you enjoy having the one you love fight to protect you..even though he doesn't always show it the way you want."
The expression on Azumi's face was priceless, it was one of shock and Shiva loved suprises more than anything. Unfortunately nothing ever really suprises her.
"Everything mother knows, I know, including about you, the mission she had where she pretended to be aligned with Aizen, Ryouji taking Hougyoku and giving it to his former Lieutenant and each and every secret you've ever told one another including the one about you having achieved Bankai before you were exiled from the soul society. Every tiny detail about you is known to me my dearest Aunt. There is nothing you can hide from me. I know your weakness is how much you love your precious Ryouji, I would hate for something bad to become of him if you do not comply with us."
Shiva stood there waiting to know if Azumi would comply with her request to release the seal holding the Original six captive.

Azumi could not believe Shiva knew so much, how was it possible? Even her bankai...only Shukumei knew of it. It didn't make sense to her but was what she was saying true? Would Shiva leave Ryouji alone if she broke the seal. She was really in no position to decline. Azumi knew that she should never barter with enemies, but if it would keep her love safe, then that was all that mattered to her.
"I...will break the seal...but only if you promise not to hurt Ryouji."
She felt so ashamed giving into demands for her own selfish reasons but could anyone blame her. Ryouji has gone through so much and got really hurt protecting her. She only wanted him to be safe.
"Please...don't hurt him anymore..."

Shiva grinned ever so slightly before nodding. Of course she really had no intentions of following through with that but whatever calmed the Shinigami's nerves worked better for her and her plans. She turned to Luna who was standing there growling intently. Shiva has never seen Luna act this way did she truly hate this Shinigami and what was her reason for doing so.
"Lunamir...why does Shinigami anger you so? Do not take offense to her obsessiveness with beauty. She meant no harm by it. Apparently she has always been like this. Save your anger my precious pet, it will be needed for the fight to come."
Shiva smirked slightly before lowering her head. She needed to change out of this dress and get back into her more comfortable clothing. The time had finally come for the original six to be released and have them join her cause to crush the soul society and rule over both Hueco Mundo and the Soul Society. It was wonderful how things have progressed all according to her plan.
"Prepare for departure, the our day has finally come"
Shiva turned away from her fellow arrancar and began to head for her quarters...but Luna did not follow her. She thought nothing of it of course.

Although her mistress was leaving, Luna could not move, her anger forced her to stay and stare at the Shinigami. Luna hated her to the point where allowing her to speak anyway she wanted to angered her further. The growls she was emitting grew even louder
"Mis...stres Shiva...I hate everything about her...she gives a bad name to true warriors everywhere. Do you not understand my position and my feelings on this matter! Everything from her face to the scent she carries...I can even smell the one growing inside of her right now and it sickens me. We shall find another way to break the seal on the original six, she must die!!!"
Using Sonido, Luna vanished from where she was standing and appeared above Azumi with her Zanpakutou in hand ready to end the Shinigami's life. Her hatred for this woman forced her to defy her mistress' orders if were to strike this pathetic shinigami down any and all punishment she received would all be worth it.

Shiva stopped and caught exactly what it was that Luna had said but she wasn't sure if she really meant exactly what she was saying. Shiva was an understanding mistress obviously. She did put up with Grimmjow's constant direspect. If there was any truth to what Lunamir has just spoken, then Shiva had no choice but to interfere to save her pregnant aunt from certain death.
Shiva performed Sonido, and quickly appeared in front of Azumi with her head lowered. Luna was already within mid swing so there was no possible way she could turn the blade in time to keep it from attacking her Mistress. As the blade neared Shiva, much like her mother, reached up and blocked the blade with the palm of her hand. She slowly lifted her head and upon gazing at Luna, Shiva squinted her eyes and seconds later, the spiritual pressure within the room had increased. The reishi surrounding Luna had grown sharp and sliced through her hands, arms chest and stomach, leaving opened wounds in place of flesh. Blood stained the floor beneath Luna and onto the ice prison which held Azumi still.
This was her true power, to manipulate spiritual pressure and attack those she deemed worthy. Artica needed not to taste the blood of her subordinates and was only reserved for her enemies. With Luna sitting there bleeding everywhere, Shiva pushed Luna's Zanpakutou and Luna herself back and watched as she landed on the tile floor. Shiva watched as Luna began to gasp for air while cringing on the floor. Shiva quickly turned around and swiped her hand across the ice which bound Azumi and freed her and caught her before she fell on the floor.
"You should be quite thankful Lunamir, if I had focused a tiny bit more, I could have killed you. You are the first victim to my true power. Remember this and never disobey me again.
Shiva turned toward Azumi, who was 'collapsed' on to her. The flustered look on her. If Luna could tell she was pregnant just by her scent then she had no real reason to doubt her word since Lying is something Luna could never do.
"Aunt Azumi...heal Lunamir. Her punishment is a fate worse than death. She will be save by the very woman who she truly despises and hates. Though I have to admit, your sense of smell is truly breathtaking. I would have never guessed that she was pregnant by looking at her."
Shiva forced Azumi down onto her knees. She continued to watch her. It was like staring at a different person, she wasn't crying or begging for Ryouji's safety. She was quiet, and shaking and she was certain it wasn't being trapped in ice.

I....I'm....pregnant? Azumi to say in the least was shocked...she didn't even know about it until just now and to find out from someone who apparently hates her was rather devastating. She couldn't even move her hands, it was everything shut down her. It was exciting but very frightening and scary all wrapped into one. She didn't honestly know what to think or to say and Shiva just saved her life. The very lease she could do as payment would be to heal Luna regardless of how much Luna hated her. Azumi crawled closer to Luna and noticed the wounds she had.
They were deep and blood was everywhere. Azumi looked down at her hands before floating them both over Luna slowly who was still growling and twitching in the midst of gasping for air and spitting blood up. Azumi's hand began to glow a light green as she began to heal up Luna's wounds. It wouldn't be as quick as she hoped due to the fact that there were so many wounds and her mind was still racing about finding out she was pregnant. How was she going to break this to Ryouji and the others.. How was he going to act upon finding about this. Would he be angry about becoming a father.
"It...will take a little while longer...but she will live..."
Sure she was happy but worried all at the same time...it just meant that she was now an easy target for anyone who wanted to get to Ryouji. She was now apart of the problem rather than a part of the solution and honestly thats the thing that broke her heart the most. She closed her eyes as a tear slowly rolled down her cheek now she was utterly useless and that was a feeling she hated more than anything else.

Even though she was not completely healed, Luna pushed Azumi away from her and stood up slowly. She did not need to be healed by the likes of a Shinigami, she would much rather heal on her own strength than to be saved by the enemy. The fact that the shinigami was pregnant meant nothing to her.
"Get away from me...I don't need you heal me...I can heal just fine on my own"
Her eyes floated from Azumi to her mistress Shiva who was looking down on her. Luna fell down to her knees in order to show that she was truly sorry. Without Shiva, Luna truly felt as if she had no real purpose. She would willingly throw her own life away to protect the one she worshipped and loved. It was strange for an Arrancar of her stature to have such strong feelings. Though those are the feelings that get her through the day.
"Forgive..me..Mistress Shiva, I...I am sorry. I beg for your forgiveness for without you I would have no purpose of my own...and it is that purpose and desire to serve you that gives me strength."
IShe could not bare to think that Shiva was truly disappointed in her, it would probably cause her to take her own life if she was not forgiven by Shiva, the only thing she could do was sit and wait with her heart pounding and blood still running down her amrs and stomach.

Kyouteki growled as he walked to Luna. He slapped her cheek lightly, forcing her to look up at him.
"All these years, and you still know nothing about your mistress? You ask for what she has already given. Do you honestly believe that you would still be alive if she did not forgive you? If she did not already forgive you, I would be feeding your dead body to the lesser ones outside..."
He faded into the shadows, a mere call from Shiva if she required him for anything.

"Get on your feet Lunamir, its embarassing to see a female warrior on her knees begging for forgiveness. I assume now that you've identified that our guest is pregnant, you won't be so rough with Auntie"
Upon hearing her mistress speak to her, Luna climbed up to her feet and kept her head lowered. Shiva turned toward Kyouteki as he walked away. Why exactly was he leaving did he not know that they were leaving now. It didn't matter, if he wanted to come, he could easily catch up with them.
"Kyouteki, catch up with us when you are ready. Camille, Lunamir, we are moving now. Alastor should have completed the preparations by now.
In unison the three pulled sprit fabric which began to swirl around them. The fabric intertwined with each other forming a huge dome. After a few moments, Shiva, Luna and Camille pulled their respective spirit fabrics free, and transported everyone who was near them from the meeting room in Las Noches, to the seal where the original six were being kept.
Shiva tucked away her spirit fabric before approaching the seal. At long last her brothers and sisters would be free. A day she has looked forward to for quite sometime. Finally she would command the strength she needed to wage war on the shinigami and to defeat them for the sake of her kind.
