He had to make a choice. There was no mistaking that Aizen was still -- probably would always be -- stronger than him. He could run, hide, and become a red stain on a wall somewhere, or he could go to Aizen, submit to his rule once again.

Right up until Aizen's gaze landed on him, and he grit his teeth as all the bravado left him.]

His old Espada uniform is gone, replaced by the mostly black outfit he'd switched to after Aizen had been imprisoned, with white jacket and a pair of white belts.]
