Chapter 14 - Joining Harribel

Meanwhile, Avirama tried to fire more of his arrows, but Terraspin managed to hover out of the way. He moved his body so that his chest was facing toward the ground, using the wind he produced to allow him to hover. He flew towards Avirama and slammed into the dumbfounded man. The two crashed into the ground again. Avirama was about to get up until Terraspin slammed his shell into him again.

"What do you think you're doing?" Baraggan yelled. "Stop going easy on this human and finish him."

Harribel looked at him. "Perhaps your subordinate isn't holding back, perhaps you made the mistake of underestimating Ben."

Baraggan glared at her. "Don't you dare mock me, Harribel. There is no way a human could defeat an Arrancar, let alone a member of my Fraccion."

Apache grinned. "Then how come I see Ben over there beating up one of your Fraccion, then?"

"I have seen enough," Aizen said suddenly. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him. Even Ben and Avirama, who were locked in combat, stopped what they were doing.

Baraggan glared at Aizen. "Why are you stopping them? There hasn't been a winner yet."

Aizen smiled at Baraggan. "I believe that if we went any further, Ben would win."

Baraggan's eyes shot so wide. He visibly struggled to keep himself under control. "You seem pretty confident that the brat would win."

Aizen just continued to smile at him. "I have seen enough of Ben's skills to come to the conclusion that he no doubt wields many forms that we have not yet seen. His wide variety of powers is what makes him so dangerous. And as Harribel had stated, Ben is very resourceful, as I have noticed with my own eyes. Without a doubt in my mind, Ben would be able to beat all of your Fraccion."

Now all of Baraggan's Fraccion were shocked and insulted by Aizen's words. And they weren't the only one. Harribel, Nnoitra, Grimmjow, and Szayel's Fraccion were all shocked. Did Aizen really hold Ben in such high regards?

"Redder! Cuulhourne!" Baraggan yelled. "Get out of my sight! You are no longer part of my Fraccion!"

"Forgive us, Lord Baraggan, we beg of you!" Charlotte cried, getting on his knees and begging.

"Unforgiveable!" Baraggan yelled, striking Charlotte across the face. Charlotte tried to get up but Baraggan began stomping on him in anger.

"That's enough," Aizen said suddenly. "Baraggan, there is a chance for Charlotte and Avirama to become stronger now. You can use their battle with Ben as experience and motivation. They now have someone to try and surpass. You should not just get rid of them for losing one fight."

Baraggan was fuming. He had been humiliate and utterly degraded.

"Fine," he said.

"And now everyone," Aizen said. "Ben Tennyson is to decide which of the Espada that he shall be a Fraccion to. Have you chosen, Ben?"

Bad Ben gives a mischievous smile in his mind, before shouting, "I would like to be Harribel's Fraccion."

Aizen nodded. "Harribel," he said to her. "Do you have any objections?"

Harribel had to admit that she was a little surprised that Ben would pick her.

Nnoitra laughed. "What does he think he's doing? Choosing a woman? Pathetic."

Ben frowned at him. "Then tell me why she's number 3 and you're only number 5."

Nnoitra frowned. "You have something to say?"

Ben activated the Ultimatrix. Nnoitra grinned. "Not tired eh, Ben?"

"Nnoitra," Aizen said. "Ben has made his decision. The only one who has anything left to say is Harribel."

Nnoitra nodded.

"Now Harribel," Aizen said to her. "Do you have any objections with Ben being your Fraccion?"

Harribel analyzed all she knew about Ben. He had the power to turn into different creatures. He proved to be a very resourceful individual and was not brutish or arrogant like most of the men were around here. Harribel knew without a doubt that Ben was special.

"I have no objections. Nor do I believe my Fraccion has any." She looked at her three Fraccion. "Do you girls?"

The three girls looked at each other. They had to admit that Ben was different from all the other guys here. He was a human after all, so that was probably the reason why. Sure it was gonna be weird having a guy join a Fraccion with mostly females, but personally none of them could think of a reason why Ben shouldn't join.

"We have no objections, Harribel-sama," Sun-Sun said with a curt nod. Harribel nodded back at her and she turned to face Aizen.

"So it is settled," Aizen said. "Ben shall now be part of Harribel's Fraccion."

The girl named Lilynette snickered. "I bet he just joined cause he thinks they're hot."

Ben glared at Lilynette the way he would glare at Gwen when she teased him, and later he punished her by fucking her. It felt like he had a little sister who was teasing him about a crush and seeing her revealing figure, he also thought how it feels, when he fucked her.

But if anyone else heard Lilynette's comment, they didn't show it. Aizen nodded at Ben. "I will leave you to get acquainted with your teammates, Ben. Take care."

With that, Aizen and everyone else walked off, leaving Ben alone with Harribel, Apache, Mila-Rose, and Sun-Sun.

"So," Apache said once they were the only ones left. "Why did you want to join us? And if you only did it because you wanna try and get with Harribel-sama, I'll kill you."

"Wait," Ben said, waving his hands in front of him. "It's not like that at all. Harribel was the only person who I felt comfortable around."

He didn't want to turn their relationship sour in the beginning.

Mila-Rose frowned. "What do you mean by that? If you think that Harribel-sama is some kind of weakling then…"

"She's the third Espada isn't she?" Ben pointed out to her. "And even if she wasn't, I still would've picked her."

Well there went the trio's accusation that Ben only did it because Harribel was one of the hire ups. This statement even left Harribel momentarily surprised.

"You chose me not as one of the Espada but as a person?" she asked him. Ben was just full of surprises.

"Yes," Ben said to her. Blushing a little red and scratching the back of his head, he said. "You just seem like a good person. Starrk is too, but I don't know what I'd do about a guy who's asleep most of the time."

At this, Harribel's Fraccion all laughed. Even Harribel cracked a small smile behind her jacket.

"You surprise me, Ben Tennyson," she said softly. "I believe I can trust you."

Sun-Sun nodded. "He does seem that way."

"I agree," Mila-Rose said. "About time Hueco Mundo got a guy who wasn't useless."

Apache scoffed. "I'll let him stay for now. But he's gonna have to work his butt off before he thinks he can impress me."

Mila-Rose laughed. "Yeah right, Apache," she said. "I bet your little heart was screaming out for Ben when he was fighting."

"Look who's talking, Mila-Rose," Apache said. "I bet your heart was pounding whenever he turned into those monsters and yelled out their names."

Ben found himself very pleased. Here these two rather cute girls were arguing about who liked him. And they were doing it right in front of him as if he wasn't even there.

"Girls," Harribel said. "I think that's enough."

Instantly the two girls stopped fighting and stood at attention like soldiers. Harribel then turned her head to look at Ben.

"Does that bother you?" she asked.

Ben shrugged. "I loved it."

Harribel nodded. "Welcome to my Fraccion, Ben Tennyson."
