Chapter 1 - Sanada and the Lieutenant

"This Ryoka sounds like the real deal." 5th Division's 3rd Officer Sanada Ryu laughed, holding out his cup for another refill. Like most Shinigami offices, Ryu was muscular and fit after many years of training and service. He was 6 feet tall, his dark skin helping him stand out among the vast majority of japanese descended shinigami and his curly black hair didn't hurt either.

"Damn right he was!" 11th Division's 3rd Officer boasted, overfilling Sanada's cup with sake as the two of them enjoyed an after-spar drink. Ryu had lost the duel, but was still in high spirits. Or maybe it was just the drink getting to him. "Kenpachi-taicho...that Kuchiki-baka...Renji-san...and getting bankai in just a few days?"

"I call bullshit on that one." Ryu remarked, unable to wrap his mind on how a Ryoka could gain shinigami powers. Let alone become a captain-level reaper in the span of a few days when earlier, he barely defeated Madarame. Sanada would've loved to have taken a shot at the Ryoka, but everything had resolved itself before he could use his european-style zanpakuto on the intruder. "I hear that Renji is happy though."

Madarame just smirked and looked over to the quiet 4th Division officer. "Hey! Hanataro! Why was Abarai moved?"

"He reopened his wounds..." The shy young man answered with a blush. "He...he and Rukia-san...they were having sex."

Ryu whistled, clanging his cup to Ikkaku's and taking a swig of the strong drink. "Byakuya-taicho is going to have Abarai's head." Ryu could only imagine the look on Byakuya Kuchiki when he found out. The anger etched on the captain's face as he watched his tattooed lieutenant Renji fuck a short petite purple-eyed girl. Sanada snickered, imaging that Rukia and Renji would be grinning like cats and not breaking pace in their two-man orgy while Byakuya drew his sword.

"He'll at least go out swinging. He's going to be stronger than me soon." Ikkaku remarked, smiling as his gaze lifted up to the full moon outside. "Besides, we may all die in this coming war. Might as well live every day as if it were the last right?"

"You don't know that." Hanataro pleaded. "I mean...Aizen is strong, but..."

Ryu fell silent, leaning back as he thought to back to the day that the news hit him. Ryu was content as the 4th of his previous Division. But it was only under Sosuke Aizen that he felt happy. The man believed in him, encouraged him, aided him and even gave him money to move his family from the Rukongai into a small estate within the Seireiei. Ryu soon saw his Taicho as a father, just like everyone else in the Division.

It was all a lie.

It was bad enough to learn that Aizen had been murdered. But then the 4th Division's lieutenant and captain, Isane and Unohana, announced that Aizen had betrayed them all. With Hinamori in confinement, it was up to Ryu to keep his Division calm as their beloved captain hovered into a torn hole in the sky along with the traitors Ichimaru and Tosen.

Sensing the officer's mood drop, Ikkaku decided to change the subject. "So, got a woman?"

"No." Ryu answered, he sat up to see Hanataro looking at him in shock and a grinning Ikkaku shaking his head. "What? Neither of you have gotten lucky, right?"

Hanataro twiddled his fingers together, failing to mask a devious smile. "Eh...me and Isane-san...we fucked like rabbits..." The tall black shinigami blinked in shock, unable to believe that wimp like Hanataro got that lucky. "More than once...in fact...I'm...going to...fuck her tonight..."

Ryu blinked. His mind imagining the scrawny, short healer on top of the stacked 4th Division Lieutenant. It was a scene as comical as it was erotic, Yamada crying out and mashing his cock into Kotetsu's clit. The normally shy woman clawing into Hanataro's back, her large ass jiggling as a set of large balls slapped against them.

The world really was coming to an end.

"See? If the pussy can get some, what's your excuse?" Ikkaku mused. "What about your lieutenant? Then again, probably not."

"What about her?" Ryu inquired, not denying that Hinamori Momo was very attractive. He would not deny touching himself as he imagined the young slender girl massaging his back and sucking his cock. However, he was a professional and professionals don't let emotions get in the way. "She's cute. But I thought she liked Hitsugaya-taicho?"

"The runt? Nah, they're like brother and sister." Ikkaku clarified. "He's real protective of her though, call it family love or whatever. But if she does like Whitey, she's gonna be disappointed."

"So him and Matsumoto are an item?" Ryu guessed, taking another drink of his sake. "Damn! I was hoping for a shot at her." Now he was imaging Rangiku riding her shorter captain. The woman's massive tits smacking into the boy's face, annoying him even as he pumped his dick into her clinging snatch.

"At this point, you'd be better off with Captain Soi-Fon." Ryu didn't laugh at Hanataro's attempt at a joke. Sanada had worked under Soi-Fon, he knew exactly what happened to any man caught objectifying her. Even a harmless stiffy earned a subordinate a quick death, forcing Sanada to quickly develop a strong sense of self-control or become eunuch like the 8th officer was.   "You can at least peek in on your own lieutenant." Hanataro quickly suggested instead.

Ryu shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know...she's not exactly my type-"

"You don't have a type." Ikkaku grabbed Ryu's uniform and pulled his face to Ikkaku's. "You're so picky that you wouldn't touch the last woman alive! That's why you haven't gotten laid since we went to that Club in 340!"

"It wasn't just one woman..." Ryu pointed out, recalling how he'd managed to nail half of the dancers in that District's Strip Club. He didn't even have to pay them anything. They were curious about his "other sword" and then got addicted to for the whole night. "They were fit and attractive professionals."

"So you should have no problem seeing about Hinamori!" Ikkaku roared. "Just peek in on her! I hear that she touches herself and calls out a bunch of names. Renji, Izuru, Toshiro, I think even your name too."

That got Ryu's interest. He even felt his mini-sword twitch. "You're lying."

"Prove it. I dare you to sneak in and see for yourself." Ikkaku stated, a dangerous gleam in his eyes. "If you pussy out, you will NEVER SEE YOUR TEDDY AGAIN!"

Ryu snarled. "Leave Teddy out of this." No one threatened his stuffed teddy bear and got away with it.

"Go peek on Hinamori and Teddy will be fine!" Hanataro added with a laugh, shutting up when the 3rd officer gave him a dangerous glare.

Now here he was, using his years of infiltration and stealth training to sneak into his own division's barracks. Normally, this would not be a problem, he was the second highest ranking officer around.

But he didn't feel like being seen.

He still could believe that he had let that bald barbarian talk him into sneaking into Hinamori's room. Then again, he was just going in to peek at what she was doing. That was it. It was not as though he'd sneaked around to the different divisions, taking pictures of select women and selling them to the highest bidder. No, he was not the sort of lecher for that.

Though even Aizen had requested pictures of the 8th Division's lieutenant, Nanao.

However, Ryu was shocked to find that Hinamori's room was empty. He entered and utilized a psychometric technique to single out Hinamori's tracks, trying to find out where she had gone. According to the tracks, she had been gone from the room for hours and before then, she had thrashed around crying and hitting the ground. Ryu shook his head, utilizing a Stealth Shunpo to move through to Aizen's former quarters.

Where Hinamori was crying into the former captain's uniform.

"It can't be true..." He heard the cute teenage lieutenant mournfully cry out. Her unfastened uniform was haphazardly slung onto her body, her unruly hair poking out from the cloth on top of her head. "You can't really be a bad person! No! It's all a lie!"

Sanada Ryu wasn't sure if he was angrier at Aizen or at Hinamori.

"Fukutaicho." He spoke, startling the girl and causing her to look at the tall 3rd officer. "You shame this division with your actions."

"Sanada..." She muttered. "You...why are you so mean-"

"The truth can be mean." He stated, entering the room and walking towards the lieutenant. "Look at you...this is what you've done in the night? This waht you do after recovering? Wasting your strength weeping for a teme who doesn't care about you?"

"But...Aizen does care-"

"Then why did he stab you and leave you to bleed to death?" Ryu inquired and just stood there, waiting for Hinamori to answer. "That doesn't sound like caring, that sounds like attempted murder."

"Stop that!" Hinamori shouted. "You don't know how I feel! Why are you being so cruel-"

"Because I care!" Ryu shouted back. "You are stronger than this! Look at you! Wasting your tears on a traitor!"

"But...but..." Was she truly that deep in denial? "Aizen-Taicho isn't-"

"Aizen is a traitor! No shinigami worth their soul should ever call that man their taicho!" Ryu pressed, snatching Aizen's robes from Hinamori's hands. "He lied to us, deceived us, set us against each other, betrayed us and then nearly murdered you! He then tried to kill Hitsugaya-taicho! He is in league with hollows, fukutaicho!"

"No! No! It's not true! Perhaps...it is Ichimaru! Ichimaru is the evil one-" Hinamori gasped when Ryu tore her captain's robes. "That's Aizen's-"

"Not anymore, he threw it away like he did this division." Ryu growled and threw a sleeve at Momo. "Like he threw away you. And he'll only be back to destroy us."

"What Captain Aizen is doing is bad...but I bet he has a good reason for it!" Hinamori pleaded smiling, her eyes filled with desperation. "Yeah, that's it... Surely Captain Ichimaru or someone is forcing him-" Ryu's smack echoed through the room. He had actually wanted to punch the girl in the face, but he couldn't bring himself to do that. He lowered his intent to a hard smack, hoping that would get the message across.

"You do not deserve to be our lieutenant." Sanada spoke using the english term rather than japanese to make his point. Hinamori put her hand on the reddened cheek as Ryu stood to leave. "I didn't even come here to slap some sense into you. But if this will the way you carry yourself from now on, you should turn in your zanpakuto and just-"

"Shakkaho!" Only Ryu's quick reflexes kept his head on his shoulders. The orb of crimson energy singed his hair as it rocketed through the compound. Ryu gulped, reminded that Hinamori Momo was the 5th Division Lieutenant for a reason. Even a mid-level kido was lethal in the hands of the small Kido Expert. 

However, there was a reason why Sanada Ryu was granted the 5th Division's 3rd Seat.

Hell, there was a reason why he was the 2nd Division's 4th Seat before then.

"Sai!" Ryu pointed his middle finger at Hinamori, forcing and locking her arms behind her back as she snarled out in rage. "Last I checked, it was forbidden for an officer to attack a subordinate like that."

"You attacked me first!" Hinamori roared, reitsu gathering around her arms as she broke the officer's spell, tearing the sleeves of her kosode and shitagi at her shoulders. "Horin!" Momo unleashed her personal kido, using their index and middle fingers to create an orange tendril with spiraling yellow energy. The tendril snagged Ryu's leg and sent a rush of energy through his body as he cried out, burns ripping his uniform asunder. "Now you will pay for laying a hand on your lieutenant!"

"I'd sooner have Hanataro as lieutenant than a weak dog like you!" Hinamori increased the energy on Ryu, surprising both when a growing bulge emerged from his crotch. Apparently, Ryu was getting off to the pain of this kido or seeing Hinamori as she was lit a fire in his balls. "Besides! Aizen stabbed you and still love him! So it should be just fine for me to slap you right-" Hinamori showed her distaste by drawing her sword and charging Ryu.

Just as planned.

"Seki." Focusing the thin blue field onto his body, Ryu nullified Hinamori's kido and swerved back to avoid the slash of her Tobiume. The front of his uniform was hit, parting to reveal his hardened muscle from years of training and near-death under Soi-Fon's watchful eye. Ryu drew his own zanpakuto and swiftly disarmed the shorter and weaker girl, then he kicked her onto the floor. Ryu signed as he saw Hinamori leap for her zanpakto. "Geki." Red energy permeated Hinamori's body, freezing her just inches from her sword as Ryu shook his head.

"If you weren't so riled up, you could have killed me a moment ago." Sanada taunted, kicking Hinamori's sword away from her grasping fingers and looking down at the angry girl. "But as soon as I mentioned your previous Aizen-sama, you got stupid. Not that I'm complaining." Ryu had Hinamori's number in swordplay and martial arts, but they were equal in speed and her kido ability exceeded his own. He wasn't even sure if his Geki Kido would hold Hinamori for long, so he focused on keeping her unbalanced. A technique he learned from Division 2's Interrogation Squad.

"I like that fire in your eyes." Sweet Hinamori was in a different light when she was angry. Ryu found it oddly attractive, every muscle in the slim girl's body was tense and ready to pounce. Her face was one of determined hatred, but it was not hatred at him. "You're angry, good. I like you angry than crying like a little bitch. Weeping like a battered idiot who wants to go back to her abusive spouse."

Hinamori grit her teeth wrathfully, Ryu's spell preventing her from saying a word.

"If I release this kido, will you agree not to kill me?" Hinamori didn't make any gesture. "No answer? Fine. I'll just leave you like this." It was a gamble, if Hinamori wasn't unbalanced enough then she'd have enough focus to break out of the kido. He was turning his back to a girl who could and was very willing to kill him. Ryu would have a chance matching his Shikai against her's, but his Shikai only lasted so long and afterwards, he was screwed. "I'll just leave you like a limp puppet. Just like Aizen did."

The kido broke in a rush of energy and Hinamori roared out on her knees. Ryu turned, preparing to face death.

Instead he saw tears.

"I'm sorry!" Hinamori wept into her hands, tears streaming down her face in a wet deluge that dampened her torn uniform. "Sanada...please...please forgive me..."

Now he felt really bad. "Damn it..." The cute girl's weeping was too much for Ryu to ignore. He stepped towards the crying girl and set a hand on her shoulder. "Don't worry about it...I was here to peep on you.."

'I'm so sorry! You're right!" Hinamori cried out. "I'm so pathetic! Aizen-taicho is the enemy and I'm making excuses for him! Everyone must think that I'm a joke!"

"No...but you were acting pathetically." Ryu blunted, the crying Hinamori throwing herself against the taller man and holding onto to him. Her tears fell onto his kosode, the dark uniform dampening as he slowly put his arms around her and held her. "He hurt me too."

"But this isn't how we beat him." Ryu said to the quieting girl. "We beat him together. Next time we see him, we'll kick his ass and make him regret deceiving us. We'll make him beg for our forgiveness and then we'll end him. But until then, we live out our lives. We don't let him control us even in his absence. We show him that despite the pain he caused us, we are still here and we are still happy. Our wounds will heal and our scars will fade-"

"Stop talking..." Ryu heard the girl request. He looked down at her, not sure as to why she was blushing like that. Her eyes had an alluring gleam to them, as if hypnotizing Ryu to look down her shitagi at the swell of her small breasts. "You shouldn't be comforting me...you should...you should punish me..."

Oh Kami, she was a masochist.

Ryu had heard of this stuff from Hanataro (no idea on how he knows about the topic) on how some Souls and Humans derive pleasure from pain. They enjoy being sexually dominated, humiliated and degraded by their partner. They liked to roleplay as a helpless victim being raped by a stronger predator or something along that line. They wanted to be taken and used and abused. Again, it was unclear as to how Hanatoro knew so much about this topic, but he'd told enough so that Ryu could see the tell-tale signs in Hinamori's demeanor.

In his attempts to help his lieutenant, Ryu had snapped something in Hinamori's mind. Her obsessive worship of Aizen was gone, but something had filled its place. Something dark and corrosive, something that was feeding on the girl's desire to be controlled and used and yet, would still nurture and love her. Right now, she was looking at the tall, dark 3rd officer as the one to dominate her.

Worst yet, was that denying her need to be punished would make things worst. She would feel rejected and tossed away, just like Aizen had done to her. Something had to be done to keep this new twitch from becoming an itch that never stopped growing.

What the hell had Sanada Ryu gotten himself into?

"If that's what you want." He grabbed her shoulders and pushed her onto the floor. Hinamori gasped as her back slammed onto the wooden planks, Ryu pouncing on her and ripping off her shitagi. Momo protested weakly, looking on as the man's hands gripped her kosode and pulled it open. He held her arms over her head, leaning down and sloppily sucking on her small tits. Her large nipples were puffy and perked out from the small supple mound, a succulent treat for his exploring tongue. Momo gasped, feeling the man's other hand move over her flat stomach towards her pubic mound.

"Punish me...take me..." She jumped up, her hakama-hito ripped from her waist and her hakama torn open to reveal her glistening pussy. Ryu kept sucking the girl's tit, his hand now teasing her labium lips.

"Not yet, I'm punishing you, remember?" Ryu pressed his lips on hers, forcing his tongue onto her own and licking out the inside of her mouth. He didn't give her a chance to kiss back, turning her onto her face and smacking her bare ass. She yelped out in pain and pleasure, her pleasure raising when she was smacked again. "You're a bad girl, you know that?"

"Yes..." Hinamori confessed happily, gasping with delight with each smack that further reddened her arse. The next smack went to her pussy mound and that got her to yelp out delightfully. "I'm a bad girl! I'm a bad lieutenant! I order you to punish me!"

Ryu truly hoped this would help the girl. But he was also having too much fun himself to try and claim innocence. Having this girl's soft, slim body in his hands was enough to have his cock strain the inside of his hakama. Only elite self-control was stopping him from taking this little fool right here and right now. 

No, though. He was going to make her earn it.

"You don't give me orders." Hinamori cried out when her cunt was smacked again. "I'm in charge tonight, Hinamori. If you want me to forgive you...if you want me to punish you...you'll have to earn it."

Hinamori showed her agreement by pulling his cock out of his hakama. Before he could protest, Ryu whistled when the lieutenant took his cock into her mouth in one gulp. She slammed the cock down her throat, her lips widened against the hilt of his shaft before she pulled back her head and bobbed forward.

"That's a good start." Ryu grabbed the back of her head and helped her along, roughly shoving Hinamori back and forth along his black dingus. If not for the silence Kido that both had cast, the entire Division would be stunned by the sound of their sweet lieutenant deep throating the 3rd officer's cock.

Notes:

Next chapter will have less drama and more domination and hurt/heal sex. The Drama just seemed important because of the particular woes of Hinamori Momo at this point in the story.
