A/N: So I got this idea from The Hills Have Eyes, hope ya like it! This one short, but future chapters will be longer.


"So, let me get this straight, you're telling me that Professor Aizen Sosuke needs to be arrested because he is responsible for the disappearance of the group of University students that went missing over a year ago?" Asked the sheriff incredulously.

"Yes, that is exactly what I am telling you," said Rukia very seriously. The Sheriff was finding it difficult to believe her, but the girl looked like she had gone through hell and back. She was dirty, bruised, there were cuts and scrapes on her skin, and her clothes were very torn.

Kuchiki Rukia had been found less than a mile off the main highway. When she was found, she claimed to have been traveling by foot for two days, having had escaped Hueco Mundo, a mountainous region that was out in the middle of nowhere, and a good fifty miles from where she had been found. She was later brought back to Karakura, and now she was here, testifying something that sounded very far-fetched.

"Miss Kuchiki, I'm going to need you to start from the beginning, but…" he drifted off taking in her weak and bleeding form, "it can wait, if you'd like, we'll have a doctor look at you, and you can testify once you've rested a bit."

"But I want-"

"Listen here, young lady, do you realize how long you have been missing? Now, wherever you were…well, you're not in good shape. I think you need to get examined by a doctor first, and I'm sure your family would more than appreciate a phone call."

"You don't understand!" She yelled hysterically as she stood up, there were tears running down her eyes, "we need to get them help! My friends need your help, students have died! There are still students dying down there! You have no idea what they've been doing to us all this time! You-" but before she could say anything else, her head started to hurt, and she almost fell from the dizziness. The Sheriff immediately rushed over to her and helped her stand straight.

"I know, I understand, give yourself a couple of hours to recuperate, I'm betting you haven't even had a descent meal," Rukia tried to argue against him again, but sighed in defeat.

To say she was tired, was an understatement, not only had she not had a descent meal in over a year, but she had endured torture, just minutes before she escaped, she had gone two days without drinking water. Without any shoes, she limped through dry barren land, mountains, cliffs, and her battered body could not stand any longer. She needed rest, she felt horrible about even thinking of resting, knowing that her friends were still suffering. But she couldn't, and to her credit, at the time of her escape, she WAS the one being put under the most pain, stress, her body being stretched to its limits, both physically and mentally.

"Okay," she sighed; she sat down, wincing as she did so.

"Mrs. Lee, yes, could you bring a someone in here? We need to have Miss Kuchiki escorted to the hospital," said the Sheriff through the phone. A moment later, two young policemen walked inside the room.

"Come on Miss Kuchiki, we need to get you checked," said the Sheriff; one of the young policemen helped her up and provided support for her as she walked.


Rukia was ecstatic, she had not had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich in such a long time, and milk! To think that she detested peanut butter before this. She was nice and clean now. Dr. Unohana, who she had known since she was a child, and was ecstatic to see her alive, checked her as soon as she was brought in, she was allowed to shower, then she was given some medicine for the pain.

What Dr. Unohana had told her so far, was that she had a twisted ankle, which didn't surprise her, some bruised ribs, a broken wrist, and was in the process of dehydrating, it was a good thing she was taken care of in time.

Once she was finished eating, she put her tray aside, and lied back down on the bed. She looked up at the ceiling. 'I hope they're okay', she thought to herself, as soon as she was feeling a bit better, she would be testifying, and she would urge the sheriff to send policemen to Hueco Mundo, and save her friends.


"So, how is she doing?" the Sheriff asked Dr. Unohana.

"She'll be fine, her body is very bruised, but it will heal."

"Well that's good news," said the Sheriff, but he noticed there was something Dr. Unohana was not telling him, "anything else?"

"Yes, she's pregnant," said Dr. Unohana looking at Rukia through the window of her room, she had already fallen asleep.

"You think it was-"

"Rape? I would not know, but isn't that usually the case in such instances?"

"Yes, I'm afraid so. Do you think she already knows?"

"It's possible, she's over four months along…but there is a possibility her mind was too preoccupied with what was happening to realize she had not had her menstrual period, and she's not showing much, for a girl that far along," said Unohana.

"Her family will have to know, as well as her, let's let her rest before telling her anything, then she can decide if she wants to keep it," said Unohana; the sheriff nodded.


Rukia's eyes snapped open, she looked around her frantically, and she realized she had only been dreaming. She sighed in relief, and buried her face in her hands. A moment later, the door of her room opened. She looked up, and saw her brother rushing over to her. Her usually stoic brother was showing more emotion than she had ever seen him show before, his eyes were filled with concern, and relief.

He wrapped his arms around her and remained embracing her for a long moment. Once he finally let her go, he sat on a chair next to her, and examined her face, assessing the damage.

"Rukia, are you all right, who did it; what did they do to you?"

"It's…it's a long story nii-sama," she said lowering her face in shame.

"You don't have to be scared to tell me, Dr. Unohana, has already shed some light," said Byakuya; Rukia looked up at him confused.

"Rukia, little sister," he said holding her hand in his. Rukia was surprised, he had never called her little sister before.

"What is it nii-sama?"

"Rukia, you're pregnant."

"What?" She said horrified; she covered her mouth with her hand, and tears poured rapidly down her cheeks. "I don't want it! Get it out of me I don't want it!" She burst out crying.

"You're over four months along, you can get rid of it if you want, but at this point, it will have to be a surgery," said Byakuya in a very low voice, he hated to add to her worries, but she needed to know the truth.

"Byakuya, I need to be left alone," she said to him, her face was buried in her knees, he nodded, and without another word, left the room.

Rukia raised the hospital gown, and looked down at her belly. It was small, but it was definitely there. This would ruin everything, how could things ever progress between her and Ichigo now? How would they begin a life together once he was saved along with the others? She wanted…no…needed to get rid of it, but it was too far along, and no matter how much of a feminist she was, she was not that heartless. She knew how formed it was by now, and could no longer use the excuse of it not being a living thing to get rid of it. She wanted to, but she couldn't do it, those bastards got what they wanted again, and who knew that fragile little Rukia would be one of the ones to provide them with it.


"How is your sister Kuchiki-sama?" Asked the sheriff the following morning.

"She…didn't take the news too well."

"Do you think she will be able to testify today?"

"I honestly don't know," said Byakuya, but the door opened suddenly, and Rukia walked inside.

"Sheriff, I am ready to testify," she said sitting down next to Byakuya.

"All right then, begin from the start."
