RANGIKU LAID unconscious on a gurney in a medical ward in the AIM underwater fortress. Phil stood by her bedside, stroking his chin and looking at her concernedly.

"You falling in love or something?" A familiar voice asked.

Phil turned to see Skye walk into the room.

"Just checking in," Phil said, "It's weird, the doctor didn't find any internal injuries,"

"Well, staring at her won't wake her up," Skye said.

"Yeah," Phil said.

"Did forensics find anything?" Skye asked.

"No, they searched the labs and it seems that they were running scans on her," Phil said, "From the scans, everything shows that she is a normal human,"

"How's that possible? Those guys we saw on the field dressed like her, except for one guy, and they had powers," Skye said.

"It doesn't make sense to me," Phil said, "Maybe her body will show some changes when she's conscious. Probably works when they're conscious or something,"

"Too bad Jemma isn't here, she could've probably figured stuff out," Skye said.

"Yeah," Phil said.

"And now that Leo's gone back to try and get her out of the weapon, we're also gonna need help checking the servers on the fortress," Skye said.

"We'll do what we can," Phil said.

Mac entered the room, gaining Skye and Phil's attention.

"You'd want to see this," Mac said.

MAC, SKYE and Phil entered a large room filled with SHIELD agents working on different computers. Mac led them to a large computer in the centre of the room.

"We swept the servers and it seems most of the files were deleted before we secured the fortress," Mac said.

"As usual," Phil remarked.

"But, we were able to find an AI inside the main server, thought you'd have a swing at it and see what you could find," Mac said.

"I'll get right on it," Skye said.

Skye sat at the computer and cracked her knuckles.

"Good, keep me posted," Phil said.

Phil headed for the exit.

"You're going to look at her again?" Skye asked.

"No," Phil said.

"Hey, if things don't work out with Helen, maybe you should ask her out," Skye said.

"Stop trying to set me up on dates," Phil said.

Skye chuckled and Phil left the room.

ICHIGO STOOD before Urahara, Shinji, Hiyori, Lisa, Hachigen, a grey-haired, muscular man, Kensei, a black man with an afro, Aikawa, a blonde man with long wavy hair, Rojuro, and a short, slender woman with green hair, Mashiro, in a corner of the warehouse.

"Now that you have defeated your Hollow, you will be able to control it," Hachigen said.

"And how does that work exactly?" Ichigo asked.

"It basically allows you to augment your power with Hollow reiatsu," Shinji said, "It is mostly concentrated in your head if your a Vizard, like us,"

"How did you become like this?" Ichigo asked.

"Aizen had tried to make Arrancar before and they were his earlier experiments," Urahara said, "They aren't complete Arrancar, but they do have some of their power,"
