It'd been a long day and Ulquiorra needed some sleep to restore his energy. Even though he was an Arrancar, he needed a little sleep to restore his lost energy. While on his way to his bedroom, he saw Grimmjow, who had a giant smile on his face. He was leaning on the wall next to his door. This made Ulquiorra curious.

"What are you doing here?" he asked, incredibly calm.

"Nothing," he answered, still smiling.

"What's the smile for?" he asked.

"You'll see," Grimmjow answered, walking away.

Ulquiorra frowned and went inside. He took off his jacket and threw it at the end of his bed. He laid on his bed and closed his eyes. He thought until he fell asleep. He was thinking of Grimmjow. He was too happy, it was unnatural. Dreams filled his sleep and he was restless.

When he woke up, he said, "What's going on?"

He'd been summoned to the main room. Everyone was being called to the main room, for a meeting. It was unusual. Normally meetings weren't called unless something major happened. Ulquiorra sat up in his bed and pulled on his jacket. He walked out of his bedroom and put his hands in his pockets. This wasn't normal, a meeting during his resting time. He didn't get to sleep very often and when he did it was only for a few hours. That was all he needed though. He walked down the hall and when he arrived at the main room he noticed Grimmjow wasn't there. He didn't move though. He saw Aizen sitting in his chair and decided that Grimmjow was being stubborn again.

"Aizen-sama," he said, turning to him.

"What is it?" asked Aizen, with his hand supporting his head.

"Grimmjow is late. Do you want me to retrieve him?"

"No. He's doing his job right now."

"Yes, Aizen-sama," replied Ulquiorra.

Everyone waited for another few minutes. Nothing happened. Aizen smiled and everyone glanced at him but, didn't turn their heads.

"Grimmjow, what took you so long?" he shouted.

Everyone heard Grimmjow's voice next. He sounded like he was smiling and laughing.

"I wanted to make sure everyone was here for this," he replied.

"Bring her in," sighed Aizen.

Grimmjow walked in with a girl on his arm. She was beautiful. Her hair was black and waist length. Her bangs were hanging in her face like Halibel's and her eyes were a beautiful green. Her skin was as pale as Ulquiorra's. Everyone was shocked for a second, but their faces didn't show it. Ulquiorra was shocked the most though. Once the girl was through the doorway, she let go of Grimmjow's arm and walked lightly over to Ulquiorra's side. He was wide eyed and frozen to the spot.

She whispered in his ear, "Don't give me that face after so long, Ulquiorra."

Everyone was shocked but, Aizen and Grimmjow. They just watched and smiled. Aizen watched Ulquiorra as he stood there with the girl breathing on his neck. She sighed and almost danced back to Grimmjow's side. She took his arm and they walked towards Aizen.

"Pleased to see you again, Aizen-sama," she said, bowing with Grimmjow.

"I hope your escort wasn't too rough," he replied.

"A perfect gentleman," she replied.

Ulquiorra hadn't moved. It was like someone had frozen the blood in his veins. Aizen turned to look at Grimmjow with a satisfied smile on his face.

"Your job is done. Leave her to Ulquiorra," he said.

Grimmjow walked away and the girl walked lightly to Ulquiorra's side. She held onto his arm and she felt him tense up. She sighed and everyone else remained confused.

"Ulquiorra walk her to her room. She'll tell you where to stop," he instructed.

"Y…Yes, Aizen-sama," he said, unfreezing.

He walked with the girl on his arm. When they left, Aizen began to explain. Ulquiorra walked a bit stiff legged.

"How did you get here?" he asked.

"Aren't you even going to call me by my name?" she asked.

"Sure, Nyoko. How did you get here?" he asked.

"Grimmjow found me in Hueco Mundo and brought me to Las Noches, when he sensed how strong I was," she answered.

He was quiet. He looked her over. She had a mask on the right side of her head, identical to Ulquiorra's and she was wearing an Arrancar outfit. It was a short skirt that went down to her mid thigh and she was wearing white leggings under it. Her shirt was a vest like and covered the hole at the base of her throat but she had fingerless gloves that went up to her elbow. When they arrived at her room, she walked to her door, opened it, and walked in.

As she was closing it, he said, "Aren't you still mad at me?"

"For all those years ago?" she asked.

He nodded his head and he felt her mode shift from playfully curious to seriously angry. He waited for her answer and she seemed to think about it.

She finally said, "Yes, I've never forgiven you for leaving like that. So I got stronger, but that's problems for later. I have to sleep. I'll need the energy for tomorrow."

"Sleep well," he said, walking away.

She nodded and closed the door. She slid to the ground and rested her head on her forearms. It had been a taxing day. She just needed to sleep. She got into her bed and closed her eyes.

Before she fell asleep, she said, "Sleep well, onii-sama."
