After a short period of time, everything when blank and a blankness suddenly enveloped him. His mind felt like he wanted to go towards the light, but he personally figured he didn't deserve to have any light shown on him, due to everything he had done to succeed at his plan. His skin felt a cold numbness as he wondered if everything was worth it in the long run.
"You'll be luck to even be alive in the other world." Shinso's words came across rather pragmatic, not to mention the zampaktuo seemed rather irate with him. "Because while everyone else will have the status of slave, Aizen is going to think of you worse then dirt. Well, at least you have the consolation of that man not knowing your secret."
"What exactly is that supposed to mean?" Gin's thoughts though knew full well what the spirit meant and he fully understood why said spirit choose not to answer. A sudden trepidation came to his mind, just as his vision began to focus on the gray light that was spreading to his mind. He blinked a couple of times, noticing that he was in a throne room.
The first thing he noticed was the man on the throne, sitting there and glowering at him in triumph. This caused Ichimaru to glance at the ground, not at all sure what was going on. Aizen though spoke up in the dimly lit throne room, his voice mocking the man in front of him. "Did you actually think that I would make it so that you didn't exist in this world, Ichimaru?"
At that, the man glanced up, noticing that a small female was attached to the man's arm. She was dressed in skimpy clothing and her thin arms were wrapped around Aizen's while she fawned upon the man. The brown eyes were dulled over, as if the person no longer had a soul of their own. Upon seeing Hinamori Momo like this, Gin's eyes darted back to the ground.
Swallowing, he found himself speaking up, his voice bitter about the whole situation. "Let me guess, you wish to punish me for my actions, make me squirm for being a traitor to you?"
"What are you talking about Gin? I don't remember you ever planning something that amounted as treason against Soul Societies king." The man on the throne then reached a hand over to pat the small female on the head. "Do you remember something along those lines, Momo-chan? I think you, my pet... will have remembered something like that."
At that, the female turned her eyes towards Ichimaru, then rapidly shook her head. Ichimaru then found himself asking the question. "Why is she this way?"
This caused Aizen to suddenly slap the female on the rear, ordering her away from the room. Hinamori stood up and slid from the room, her walk the procreative kind. When she had slipped into the back room, Aizen smirked at Ichimaru. "See, here is the thing. I can choose where everyone went in this life time, and I choose them fitting judgment on their past life."
"With Hinamori Momo, you and I both know that she couldn't live without me. So, in this world it happens to be the same. Instead of ending up with her grandmother, she ended up upon the death of her parents being sold by one of her uncles, who was desperate for money to take care of her own family. She ended up in my care, and I've groomed her since she was a child. Her body is prepared to become fully mine in a few days."
"Bastard." Gin spat out the words, his lips pushing together, but then stopped, his eyes falling to the ground.
"Is that the way to speak to your king Ichimaru?" Aizen raised an eyebrow, then stood up and walked over to where his former subordinate from the world stood. He then grabbed a beaker and splashed it into Ichimaru's face.
"Sake? Are you trying to poison me?" The silver haired man spluttered through his words, frustration growing in his mind.
"Weren't you the one who was trying to poison me?" The so called king spoke up, a darkness in his eyes making it seem like he was unapproachable. "I mean, you did try in the past world and failed. Just think of it this way, Hinamori got the wish she wanted. I was actually able to dole out everyone's wishes I think. That is the true will of the hogyoku, for everyone's wishes to be granted. You can like it if you want or not."
Ichimaru continued to glower at the man, frustration appearing on his face. He suddenly found himself grabbed from behind, and he turned his face to see Tousen standing behind him. "Do you wish for me to dispose of this man?"
"Does he remember the other world?" Gin snapped the words out, wondering why Tousen was still siding with this particular man in this particular world.
Aizen though remained cool and calm, and then let out a deep sigh. "You know how he is when he gets drinking, he rambles about random stuff, like other worlds. Actually, he has started rambling about such things of late, without getting drunk. Just take him home and get him out of my site. I am quite sure that his family would be glad to see him."
At that point, Ichimaru found himself dragged out of the room, as he glowered at Aizen, wanting to spit upon the man and kill him. However, something deep down told him that the rules were different in this world. Glancing over at Tousen, he decided to pose a question. "Ney, what do I usually ramble on about?"
"You ramble on about such things as substitute soul reapers, a dragon named Hyorinmaru and many other things. You have to remember that Aizen is a god and what he says is law. If he says that I am to kill you, I will kill you not caring that your family will morn your death. Sometimes I don't think you care about what emotional trauma they will have to go through.
