(A/N: Sorry about the first three being short. Hopefully this one will be at least four pages long! No procrastinating for me! Onward! Oh yeah, before I get on with it, I would just like to say that Bi [Rain] is South Korea's version of Usher... They're both sexy X3 Nyaaa~! I would also like to say that Junichi Suwabe does amazing Japanese voice acting for our beloved Grimmjow Jeagerjaques and Keigo Atobe. He also has a sexy singing voice! X3)
Chapter Four:
"Who are they?" I asked, turning my attention away from the blue haired man to stare at one of the others who stood behind him.
"Arrancar. The one in the middle, Grimmjow, was the one I went against last time."
The one named Grimmjow smirked. "So the Bount found some reinforcement. How quaint." His voice was husky. Our equally blues eyes met and he smirked at me, a form of lust filling his eyes which disgusted me greatly.
"Renji, you and Ichigo take the flunkies. Big boy here is mine."
"Wha-- He's my opponent! I should fight him!" argued Ichigo, his doe brown eyes widening in shock.
"I don't care if he's your grandfather! No one looks at me like that and gets away with it!" Both Renji and Ichigo looked at me like I had gone crazy. My temper had flared from just a look, but it was a look I had faced many times when I was growing up in Hueco Mundo. It was the same look the older men gave me when they tried to rape me, I was defenseless then; but as soon as I was taken into Soul Society, my attitude had changed.
Unsheathing my sword in seconds, I lunged forward and swung at Grimmjow. He dodged the attack, jumping back to put some distance between us. Taking this as a signal, Ichigo and Renji took to their opponents; chasing them several yards away. "My, my, what a fiery attitude you have. I'm going to have fun beating you to the ground." A sadistic smile plastered itself on his face as that sentence left his mouth.
(A/N: Like this! ----->
)
"Bastard!" I lunged forward once again and swung at him. "I'll kill you! Even if you are a fellow arrancar!" He, again, dodged the attack and kicked me with his left leg. The kick knocked the wind out of my lungs and sent me flying into a wall. A fairly large crater was left from the impact as I stumbled away from it.
"A fellow arrancar? All I see is another shinigami who's gonna get her ass kicked!"
"Bring it!"
We ran at each other, my sword raised; ready to make contact with his flesh. Before I could slice him in two, his fist made contact with my face. Again I flew through the air, crashing into a telephone poll. I was going to feel that in the morning, or possibly after this fight. Falling to my knees, my sword clattered to the ground. Gasping for air, I struggled to get up onto my feet. Damn he's strong... Too bad I can't use my arrancar powers... my grandparents forbade me to use them in Soul Society...
But you're not in Soul Society... You're in the human world. A voice from with in my mind spoke. It sounded more evil than the usual voice I heard.
That was true. Now fully standing on my feet. I took a deep inhale of breath and released a large scream that shattered the windows of the nearby buildings. The sound wave blasted the blue haired monster backwards, sliding on his feet as he blocked it. The scream wasn't like the one I used four years ago, it was a weaker version of the sonic boom I had used to kill the large hollow that had attacked Neko-nii-chan. As my throat began to run dry, I stopped screaming. I was still exhausted from being in the hospital. My wounds hadn't healed completely. My vision began to blur, everything seemed to be running together.
He must have noticed my hesitation and used it to his advantage because the next thing I knew, his large hand grasped my throat, lifted me into the air, and slammed me down into the pavement. A strangled cry of pain escaped my lips. "How disappointing. I had thought this fight would have lasted longer, but I may as well put you out of your missery." He tightened his grip, closing my wind pipe as I gasped for breath, my hands clawing at his hand to release me and my vision going. Memories of all the fun times I had with my only friend flashed through my mind, like a movie. "...Ne...ko..." I gasped out, losing conciousness instantly after I uttered the name of my lost friend.
-Grimmjow's P.O.V.-
I yanked my hand away from the girls throat. Color instantly returning to her flesh. That was a name I hadn't heard in four years. It had been given to me by a small girl who had saved me from near death. Her brilliant blue eyes had been stained by tears. She had said her name was Yuu. We had spent days together, until our last visit. She told me her father was sending her to Soul Society and that we wouldn't see each other ever again.
My eyes traveled over her features. Certainly this couldn't be the same fourteen year old from all those years ago, could it? She seemed familiar. "Ah!" Snapping out of my thoughts, I turned my attention to my two fallen commrades.
The redhaired one whom the girl had called Renji turned and looked from me to the girl. "You bastard!" he yelled, getting the other mans attention. They rushed towards me, the second man swing his sword at me as I leapt away in the air; making a garganta and escaped through the opening. The redhaired man named Renji dropped to his knees and craddled the upper half of the girl in his arms. "Yuu! Yuu wake up!"
Yuu...? The very same Yuu who treated me as an equal? No! That can't be her! Then it came together. That girl and the Yuu from the past were one and the same. Quickly I closed the hole of the garganta and returned to Las Noches, to lock myself in my chambers. She had matured nicely. A fine young woman. But what really confused me was the fact that she was a shinigami. Hadn't she been born and raised in Hueco Mundo with her father?
