"No... that's not what I meant." The silver haired man stated firmly.

This caused Aizen to let out a laugh. "No. You know full well why Hinamori turned on you, despite the fact that you are family and wanted to rescue you. You want to know why I went out of the way to go and get your son? Or are you wondering why I am using an illusion of him, holding him in front of me? I know your one true weakness in this world, Ichimaru, one that I didn't in the other."

Gin made no move towards the other adult male, but instead placed his hand on the blade that was protruding from his body, trying to think what he should do to get out of this situation. He then let out a deep breath, frustrated that the situation would have turned out the way it had. "I can't risk that he isn't an illusion, and you know that."

At that, two bright teal eyes suddenly went wide with shock. The mouth moved and words that only Toshiro could think of speaking suddenly bubbled out. "I'm an illusion! Just attack him! Please!"

This caused Gin to pause suddenly, a smirk suddenly spreading on his face. He thought back to the conversation that he and Rangiku had before, about how he had always chosen the over protective path when it came to their son, the one that would always guarantee that they were alive. He drew his blade, watching as Aizen suddenly raised an eyebrow.

However, before he could make a move, the substitute shinigami came hurtling around the corner. "What are you doing? You can't attack him now! Are you as blind as when Toshiro accidentally hurt Momo? Aizen is holding him right there."

"I don't know what you're talking about Kurosaki. I am an illusion." The boy stated firmly.

"Very funny Toshiro. You and I both know that I never saw that guys Shikai." The substitute shinigami stated, suddenly yanking Hinamori away from her blade and thumping her hard on the head. "And you. Why did you attack your own family?"

"My only family is Aizen." Hinamori stated firmly. "My real family abandoned me a long time ago."

"Baka. One person in your family abandoned you to this monster, not all of them. Why else do you think that someone from your family came to get you?" Ichigo stated, pointing a finger at Aizen. "A person who is really family would never ask you to hurt family that has shown they do in fact cared. He's manipulating you."

"Shut up Kurosaki." Ichimaru span out. "You honestly aren't helping. Kamishini no Yari,"

The man then went to a stance to release his blade, causing Ichigo to suddenly fluster up. "What the hell do you think you're doing! I told you, that isn't an illusion!"

However, the man's blade went off, suddenly shooting forward and cutting through Toshiro's right shoulder and into Aizen. As the blade retracted, the man dropped the boy to the ground, anger written all over his face as he made to back off away from Gin. "Oh, I know full well it isn't an illusion."

Gin moved forward, then shunpooed past the small boy, shoving Aizen backwards, clashing his blade with the man's. He could hear Toshiro speaking to Kurosaki, including a word he never thought he would hear. "Please, Kurosaki. Stop my oto-san from doing something stupid."

Ichimaru lifted up his hand. "The twist on your wish... it was that you couldn't use your zampaktuo on people from the other world. Korose, Kamishini no Yari."

Aizen simply glowered at Ichimaru, while his body dissolved. He then raised his hand up. "I am not going to let you kill me off, without having you die with me here. The man raised up his hand and aimed a spell at Gin's head, shooting it off, just as Ichimaru heard both the substitute shinigami and Toshiro screaming at him. And then, there was a great deal of pain.
