Oh snaps son. An inverse of the previous picture. Yeah Orihime turned out so well from the last picture we decided to satisfy any possible curiosity and with her getting the Mask...if it was there.

Don't think of this as a continuation, think of this as a branch or "what if" in the situation. As in "What if it were Orihime instead?"

This makes the 3rd known time Cerb has taken on a Mask crossover picture. Mighty fine job.

-------------------
One day, Orihime is musing solemnly in her room. She has been recently rescued from Aizen's clutches, but Orihime is still saddened about helping that madman and having 'make' Ichigo and the others go through what they had to getting her home.

Orihime says, solemly, "How could I help that madman? I don't deserve someone like Ichigo or be friends with any of the others." Just then she hears a knock at the door and she goes over to it in which she opens it to reveal none other than Rangiku Matsumoto at the door.

Rangiku yells out, excitedly, "How are you doing girlfriend?"

Orihime asks, nervously, "What are you doing here Rangiku-san?"

Rangiku says, with a smile, "Can't a girl see a girlfriend? I'm here to see how you are doing after that horrible kidnapping."

Orihime asks, solemnly, "Does your friends and superiors know that you are assoicating with a traitor to humanity?"

Rangiku yells out, stunned, "Orihime-chan, why are saying such nonsense?"

Orihime says, solemnly, "Because it's true, Matsumoto-san! I let myself get kidnap and I nearly helped that madman succeed in his plans. I betrayed Ichigo-kun and every one of you!"

Rangiku tells Orihime, with a smile, "Don't you say that kind of stuff, Orihime-chan! I think that you need a night on the town! Get out there and show them what you are made of!"

Orihime tells Rangiku, nervously, "I don't know, Rangiku-chan."

Rangiku tells Orihime, with a wide smile, "I really know so, Orihime-chan! You are a great girl and you deserve something to take your mind off that horrible experience."

Orihime says, with a weak smile, "I guess it couldn't hurt..." Orihime prepares to head out the door.

"Stop right there, Orihime!" Rangiku grabbed Orihime's arm "You are not going out like that are you? Someone like you has to shine out there. Let's have a little fun, you know give the boys something to look at."

Orihime says, nervously, "I don't know about 'teasing' boys, Rangiku-chan."

Rangiku says, with a grin, "There is no harm in it Orihime-chan. You want Ichigo's attention don't you? I bet he's the jealous type." Orihime can't help to blush from Rangiku's comment

She goes over to her closet and she says, with a weak smile, "All right, Rangiku-chan, I'll give a try." When she opens her closet, she yelps out in shock as she notices a strange greenish-brown mask and she jumps back in shock.

Rangiku goes over and she says, looking at the mask, "You are worried over this ugly thing, Orihime?! I've seen Hollows scarier than this thing."

Orihime takes the mask and she says, curiously, "I don't remember having this Rangiku-chan. It looks really old --- I can probably sell it for a lot of money."

"It is just an ugly old mask. Probably some kind of old prop or something. Just hurry up and pick something out." Rangiku scoffed

Orihime says, with a nod, "Okay, Rangiku-chan." Rangiku heads off to wash up, while Orihime looks at the mask. Just then the mask gives off a powerful shimmer and Orihime is amazed by it. Orihime yells out, excitedly, "This is incredible, Rangiku-chan!"

Rangiku's voice yells out from the door, "What is it Orihime-chan?"

Orihime yells out, excitedly, "This mask just glowed like a prism or something! It is so amazing Rangiku-chan! It can't be worthless if it glows!" Orihime looks at the mask as it gives a more powerful causing her to look at it completely 'hypnotized'.

Rangiku yells out, with a giggle, "Come on, Orihime-chan, don't say such wacky stuff like that! I hope you're not wasting time ogling at that thing." Orihime doesn't hear Rangiku as she moves the mask to her face feeling an incredible urge to put the mask on. Just then the mask latches onto her face and quickly covers her face while the mask becomes like hot wax and rubber. Orihime gives a loud moan from a burning 'feeling' going through her body and her body then spins around in a mini-twister of thunder, lightning, and wind. Rangiku rushes to her room when she hears Orihime's moan, but before she can say or do anything, Rangiku is engulfed in the twister as it heads out of Orhime's home into the night.

That evening, Tatsuki is performing some night training, since the weekend is coming and she is off from school, when she hears a 'disturbance' nearby and goes over to investigate. What Tatsuki sees next really blows her mind as she sees Rangiku and Orihime leading a pack of men with cameras, but Orihime is greatly different.

Orihime's hair and hairstyle are the same, but the skin of her head from the start of her neck up is lime green in color and rubber-like in texture, her eyelashes are long and sensual with pink eyeshadow to make her blue eyes more seductive, she has deep, plump, luscious, and lovely sparking carnation pink lips, she is wearing a tight fitting hot pink dress, her fingernails are a sparkling Persian pink, and she has rose colored shoes on her feet.

Orihime/Mask yells out, with a seductive and excited tone, "That's it, boys! Make sure that you get my good side!" Orihime/Mask poses in sexy poses while Rangiku, all dolled up, looks on with a nervous look.

Rangiku asks Orihime/Mask, nervously, "Are you sure that you are okay Orihime-chan?"

Orihime/Mask yells out, excitedly, "I feel awesome Rangiku-chan! You were right about all this and I need to do this!" Orihime/Mask says, with a wide seductive smirk and sly tone, "And maybe it is time that I get Ichigo-kun to really notice me." Orihime/Mask gives a seductive giggle as she thinks about what "fun" she and Ichigo could have for themselves...'

I did SOME editting though
-------------------

-Since the lighting of the background wouldn't fit, again with the generically shaded/toned dresses and hair and burn/dodge skin.

-Originally it was just going to be a standalone picture with Rangiku, but showing the picture to *Jokerisdaking made him interested in doing a "inverse" of the first picture.

-HazardGallantmon suggested Orihime have a different dress color than the previous picture with Rangiku just to note how it reflects on her personality.

-Same background, slightly different size. Because I don't care

-Tried to retain CerberusLives' signature but it's poorly edited once more (and technically the Rangiku picture uses the signature from this picture) :I
