By the way. I am sorry for not updating this sooner. I have way too many stories ideas in my head and I am trying to sort them all out. And then my current stories get neglected. I am unsure as to how often I will update this story, so please do be patient with me. Thank you.

Ichigo looked around for a moment then opened a gargantuan when he made sure no one was in the room he was occupying. It was only two days since he came back, but he felt like he had to do this. He probably didn't explain to his friends enough and just felt that he should reassure them. A second rip appeared in front of him not long after he entered the dark corridor between the two worlds. He leaped through it and headed towards Orihime's house, knowing that's where the Shinigami would be. If they weren't there, then he would try Urahara's Shouten.

Thankfully, they were there speaking with the So-Taichou. This made things slightly easier for him. "Knock, knock," he joked, causing the Shinigami in the room to turn around with their hands on their zanpakutos. "Geez, if I knew that was how you were going to react, I would have stayed back in Las Noches instead of coming here."

"Ichigo?" Rukia warily asked. "That really you?"

"No, I'm the Tooth Fairy," Ichigo scoffed with a roll of his eyes. "Who the hell do you think I am?!"

"We weren't exactly expecting you to return so easily, Kurosaki," Hitsugaya stated. "We thought we would have to drag you back."

"Not coming back," Ichigo said with a shrug of his shoulder. "Maybe I should explain things a little better since everything got off on the wrong foot last time."

"What do you mean you're not coming back?!" Renji exclaimed.

"Exactly as I said," Ichigo sighed, shaking his head slowly. "I'll probably have to remind Aizen again, but I'm going to tell you guys now. All of you are my friends and I won't fight against you. But Grimmjow and Ulquiorra are my mates and most of the Espada are my friends as well. I won't fight them. I won't fight for either side."

"Kurosaki, we cannot fight this war without you," Yamamoto stated. "Aizen has a advantage over all of us, a advantage he does not have over you. We have all seen his Shikai, something you have not. Even without releasing his sword, he can make us see his illusions and make us fight one another while he stands on the sidelines and watches. You have not seen his Shikai, thus you wouldn't fall for his illusions."

"I already said I won't fight," Ichigo growled. "Aizen may be a power-hungry pain in the ass, but I won't fight him. It's out of the question."

"So you'll fight with him?" Ikkaku asked with narrowed eyes.

"No," Ichigo replied, shaking his head. "I won't fight with or against him. This isn't my battle and it never was. But if you do manage to lose and if Aizen does look like he's trying to become the new God, he'll have to get through me first. I won't let him destroy the world. And I won't let him kill any of you."

"You make it sound like you think you can defeat him all on your own without help from anyone," Rukia commented.

Ichigo scoffed. "I already told you that I'm the Arrancar Prince," he pointed out. "Aizen only wanted me in his army because he figured with me on his side, he would win. When I told him that I won't fight against you guys, he got really angry and tried to force me to fight with him against you. I already showed him defeat once. I told him I won't hurt those I care about. I said that I'm not like the other Arrancar under his command. I have much more than he could ever offer."

"What if he tries something that would make you obey him?" Rukia asked.

"He wouldn't," Ichigo chuckled. "He knows that if he even tried, things wouldn't exactly go his way. Hell, if he tried anything, you guys wouldn't have to worry about him. Anyway, I just came to tell you guys that, but I gotta go."

"Wait, Kurosaki Ichigo!" the So-Taichou ordered as Ichigo turned around and was about to head back out.

"I already told you my answer," Ichigo pointed out. "I have two mates, one of them is pregnant with twins. I will not risk them in this war. I will not fight for Aizen. And I will not fight for you. I will remain neutral because of the friends I have on both sides. I do not wish to betray either friends, but if I must, I will fight for you against Aizen. If he defeats you and tries to take over the world or destroy Karakura Town, I will stop him myself."

Yamamoto was silent for a moment. "Is that the most we can ask of you?" he asked the young Arrancar Prince.

"Yeah," Ichigo replied.

"I suppose it will have to do then," Yamamoto commented. "You already have too much on your shoulders as it is. I suppose we are selfish and desperate to add one more burden to you."

"Suppose you are," the Arrancar Prince chuckled with a small shrug of his shoulder.

"But you are the only one who could defeat Aizen, so of course we would try to bring you to our side," Yamamoto continued as though he wasn't interrupted. "I understand how Arrancars are with their mates. They value them over any others, so I shouldn't think you are any different. Perhaps you could attempt one thing for us."

Ichigo looked over his shoulder. "What?"

"You say that some of his Espada are your friends, correct?"

"They won't ally themselves with Shinigami," Ichigo pointed out blandly. "They only accepted me easier because I was once a Vaizard and I am the Arrancar Prince. But all of you are Shinigami. If you are going to ask me to try and lead a rebellion against Aizen using his own Espada or try and convince them to ally themselves with you, you got another things coming. The Espada aren't stupid. They won't ally themselves with an enemy. Aizen has done plenty for them to earn their respect…in a few cases."

The So-Taichou let out a low hum. "Then there is nothing I can ask of you?" he sighed.

"Nothing," the Arrancar confirmed. "I already told you what I will do if it comes to that. I won't spy. I won't suddenly appear in the middle of the battle and fight Aizen and his Espada. Sorry, but I can't risk anything."

"Risk?" Hitsugaya asked this time. "Risk what?"

Ichigo sighed then turned around fully. "If I fight for you, Aizen will hurt Ulquiorra and Grimmjow," he pointed out. "If I fight for him, I know you won't hurt your own, but that in a way would be the ultimate betrayal. I would have to fight against you if I fought for him. I already explained to Aizen I won't fight for either side, now I'm telling you." He raised his hand then slashed the air next to him, opening a gargantuan. "Now I really have to get back because Ulquiorra throws fits when he gets worried. Not to mention I wasn't even supposed to leave."

He stepped into the gargantuan and it quickly closed behind him, leaving silent companions and friends.

"I'm gonna get fat because of these spawns in me," Ulquiorra complained. Grimmjow, who was at the other side of the room playing poker with Nnoitra, tilted his head back with a roll of his eyes.

"I know how you feel," Szayel sighed sympathetically.

"No you don't," the Cuatro argued. "You're having only one. I'm having twins."

"Alright, so I don't know exactly how you feel," the other agreed, "but you're not the only one that's gonna get fat. And I actually consider you lucky."

"Why?" Ulquiorra scoffed. "I'm gonna be fatter than you, moodier than you, and my cravings are so strange I don't know which one is making me crave which food. The two are already arguing with each other over what I eat and when one doesn't like what I eat, it makes me throw it all up and then the other is unhappy. I'm not even that far yet and it feels like they are trying to ruin me!"

"True points," Szayel agreed with a nod of his head. "But at least your mates have tact. I can't trust Nnoitra to say a decent thing."

"I'm right here, ya know!" Nnoitra exclaimed from across the room.

"And I'm only saying the truth," Szayel yelled back at him. "Seriously, you have two mates that would argue with you as soon as you start saying 'I'm fat'. Nnoitra would probably say something very stupid."

Nnoitra scoffed then looked back at Grimmjow. "Why am I with him again?" he asked.

"How the hell should I know?" Grimmjow replied with his own question. "Full House."

"Damn it! I got a fucking lousy hand!"

"I hope your child's first word is not a cuss word considering how much both of you cuss," Ulquiorra commented, placing his chin into his hand while looking over to the other pair.

"I do not swear," Szayel stated with a wave of his hand.

"You do when you and Nnoitra have arguments," the pale Arrancar pointed out.

"What some see as a fight, others see as serious foreplay," the Octave said with a smirk.

"Screw your kid saying a curse word for its first word, it'll turn out perverted," Grimmjow snickered before the door opened. "Hey, Ichi! Where ya been?"

"Just on an errand," Ichigo replied, going over to the gambling pair and leaning over Nnoitra. "This ain't your type of game, Nnoitra. Why do you bother trying?"

"I'm trying to figure out how this cat is cheating without me noticing," Nnoitra grumbled.

"One, I don't cheat," Grimmjow defended. "You just suck ass. And two, you barely notice anything since you only have ONE eye!"

Ichigo stepped back seconds before Nnoitra lunged at the Sexta. "Well there went the poker game," Szayel sighed as Ichigo made his way over to Ulquiorra and gave him a small kiss on the lips.

"You know," Ulquiorra chuckled. "I could throw your earlier comment back into your face during this."

Both Sexta and Quinta stopped their fight, stared wide-eyed at their mates, then at each other, and jumped off while exclaiming disgustingly. "What did I miss?" Ichigo asked, sitting backwards in the chair next to his pale mate.

"Szayel said what some see as a fight, others see as serious foreplay," the Cuatro replied with a smirk. Ichigo gapped at his mate then at Szayel.

"Well," the pink-haired Arrancar sighed. "Some do." He was silent for a few seconds. "Nnoitra tends to the most."

"Alright, time for Szayel to shut up," Nnoitra commented.

"Make me," Szayel challenged with a smirk.

Nnoitra raised an eyebrow, made his way over to Szayel, picked him up then threw him over his shoulders before leaving the room with his protesting mate.

Ichigo, Grimmjow, and Ulquiorra watched the pair go silently before one of them finally broke the silence. "Well, he said to make him," Grimmjow commented with a grin.

"Grimmjow, you're a pervert," Ichigo sighed with a shake of his head.

Ulquiorra suddenly snapped his fingers. "I almost forgot," he said. "Aizen-sama wanted to talk to you, Ichigo."

"About what?"

"I don't know."

Ichigo sighed and rubbed the back of his head. "Guess I'll go and see what he wants then," he stated, walking out of the room and leaving his two mates.

Grimmjow looked down at Ulquiorra with a raised eyebrow. "You think Aizen's given up on trying to convince him?" he asked.

"No," Ulquiorra replied. "He's too stubborn. Kind of like you." The Sexta growled lightly at him.

"This probably won't end very well," Gin pointed out, for once without his customary grin, from his spot on Aizen's lap. "You know how he is, Sou-kun. No matter what you do, he won't give in."

"True," Aizen agreed with a soft chuckle, running his fingers through his lover's silver hair. "Yet he knows what I am capable of."

"He also knows he can beat you, or did you forget about that?" Gin asked playfully.

"No, I didn't," Aizen said, his usual smirk fading a bit. Why did Gin have to bring that up?

Of course he knew the Arrancar Prince would be powerful, perhaps stronger than Aizen himself currently was, but he did not expect the Prince to be Kurosaki Ichigo and thought he could easily defeat him into submission. No. That wasn't what happened. Kurosaki defeated him and then went ahead and gave him a few 'ground rules'. It did not matter though. Once the Hogyoku gave him the power he so desired, then Ichigo would not defeat him so easily.

The door opened, breaking Aizen from his thoughts, and a certain Prince entered the throne room, not caring that Gin was in Aizen's lap or worried about this meeting. Ichigo is the Arrancar Prince, after all. He was stronger than even Yammi when he released Ira, his zanpakuto, and became the Cero Espada. Even Barragan would bow down to this being.

"Ulquiorra said you wanted to see me," Ichigo said uncaringly, looking up towards Aizen. "What about?"

"The war will happen eventually," Aizen jumped right in.

"I already told you, just like I told the Shinigami back home," Ichigo pointed out, even slipping in his little errand run, which made Aizen's eyes narrow slightly. "I will not fight for you because that would be betraying my friends and family. But I will not fight against you because I know how little you value the Espada. If I turn again you, you would hurt Ulquiorra and Grimmjow."

"Now what makes you believe I would do such a thing like that?" Aizen asked. "Ulquiorra is too loyal to dispose of and Grimmjow is still quite powerful."

"I'm not stupid, Aizen," Ichigo pointed out, a slight shift in his voice. "I know how little you care about your followers. I'm gonna say this one more time. I am not your warrior, nor am I the warrior of Seireitei. If you even think about harming my mates to get me to cooperate with you, Soul Society won't have to worry about you anymore. Because I will kill you."

"You are sure about your decision?" Aizen asked, tilting his head down a little bit.

"Yes," Ichigo answered. "And I mean it. I will even bring in Vasto Lordes to protect my mates from you if you try anything whenever I leave. I'm not your pawn. I'm not dependent on you. And I won't accept any threat you throw my way." He turned and started to walk away. "I think we're done here, so bye."

As soon as he was out the door, Gin looked over at his lover. "Well that didn't go how you planned, did it?" he asked, grinning widely.

"No, it didn't," Aizen said with a frown.

"You look stressed, Sou-kun," Gin pointed out, running his thin fingers through Aizen's brown hair. "Do you need some help with a little relief?"

Aizen returned the grin. "That would be nice, Gin," he answered.

"Yay!" Gin exclaimed. "I'm going to the 'Toy Closet' to get a few things!"

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

Me: not that long, I know, but I'm working on it. And I could not help that last part. Gin just strikes me as the kinky kind and would have a 'Toy Closet' somewhere nearby. That's just how I tend to see him sometimes.

So please vote concerning the names I already have, I will still take a few more suggestions, but let's see how far we can go with the ones I have. Review and vote!
