Ukitake was staring at the Koi pond, he had a cloth to his mouth wiping away the blood slowly. He had his long white hair pulled back into a pony tail, and was wearing a lighter robe. He was waiting for Shunsui, he took a sip of the green tea sitting next to him before sighing, and coughing. That caused his hands to shake, wiping his mouth once more and then he stared back into the Koi pond. He smiled slightly when he thought about Lyra.. Lyra was his adopted daughter, whom he had found wandering where he was staying once before. He loved Lyra more then any thing, she had been the reason he kept going. But he kept her in the shadows for fear if there was a new enemy for the soul society they would target soul reapers like her. Then Ukitake zoned out as he watched some cherry blossoms fall lightly onto the Koi pond before he came back to reality with a sigh.

" Jushiro why the long face, its very much unlike you... You need to stop worrying about Lyra.. " Shunsui said as he sat down next to his friend, he adjusted his own colorful robes and then also adjusted his hat so his eyes were some what shaded from the sun. " I know when she went from your squad, to Retsu Unohana's squad then sir Byakuya Kuchiki's squad. I know that scared you from the way you acted during the time her spiritual pressure is growing, and it still is mostly because every one seen the fact Byakuya was taking interest in her. Byakuya having interest in some one is a scary thought. " Shunsui said softly as he looked over at his friend for a moment before saying. " I know you adopted her long ago, I was the only other person she told. That's because I kept pressing her about it. Jushiro. She'll be fine, the reason why there hasn't been a Hell Butterfly is because she is probably busy healing people in Hueco Mundo or Las Noches.. You know how we'd vent to each other and still do? " Shunsui said and waited for Jushiro to nod. " That's what Lyra and I did, expect. I found out, you never told her you love her. I know you do, you've been her father for how long?. Next time you see her I suggest you say some thing before she gets married to some one like Byakuya. Now. We have to prepare we are wanted at a meeting. " Shunui said helping his sick friend up.


Some where in Hueco Mundo

Lyra gracefully did flash step across the sand, her white hair that mixed with some red waved slightly from how fast she moved. She soon stopped to adjust her pony tail, feeling slightly heavy even though she was skinny like a twig, and was wearing mostly black robes. Lyra had her zanpakuto, Shiro, on belt. Her soft tan skin made her blue eyes stand out against the sand. She looked around silently feeling great spiritual pressure of two... No.. One Soul reaper, women... And one Arrancar... She quickly darted towards where she was feeling it coming getting closer, Lyra knew how to fight, she could fight but she was still no where near this Arrancars strength she knew she would only be a burden. Lyra ducked behind a pillar going to watch from behind a pillar her lips parting slightly and her eyes widened. Even she knew the Arrancars name and he some what scared her when she first heard about him from Rukia... Grimmjow... Lyra stayed quiet and watched with wide eyes as even Grimmjow the sixth strongest Espada was breaking due to Ichigo.. But one thing terrified her more then Grimmjow.. Seeing some one die... She watched as Ichigo tried to tell him it was enough and then.. Another Espada.. Stabbed.. Grimmjow... Lyra's eyes widened tears started running down her face putting her hand over her mouth slightly. Then she seen Ichigo defend him and she saw her chance to help him. Even though she was terrified. She wasn't going to watch some one die. Lyra did flash step to the blue haired Espada glancing over at Orihime. She made eye contact with Orihime before she pulled Grimmjow up by his arm and did flash step several times. Lyra looked around some what quickly looking for a place they could go with out being bothered. She soon seen what looked to be a cave, caused by one of the large pillars. She gently lugged the large man who was stirring in her grasp, into the cave. Lyra pulled off part off the top part of her robe laying it down like it was a little padded pillow. She could hear Grimmjow who was now grumbling and cursing at her for helping him. " Hush.. You can hardly move.. " Lyra said slowly as she laid him down on his back.

" Get... Your... hands... off.. me... " He rasped trying to shove her away but he could barely move at that point. Grimmjow just stared up and the women, soul reaper, who was standing in front of him. Helping him. He almost broke out laughing it was so hysterical that a Soul reaper to help him when all he wanted to do was kill them. He watched her with close eyes as she placed her hands over part of the wound. Grimmjow slowly quieted down with his curses and trying to push her away. There was some thing different with this Soul Reaper, he could feel her spiritual pressure still growing. " Wha... Are you... " He grumbled softly as he watched her start the healing process. He grumbled a bit realizing his jacket/shirt was ripped. Then he gasped slightly he felt like he had been hit with a brick to the chest. He suddenly got light headed, the world was spinning before he passed out.

Lyra only giggled slightly, she wiped off one of her hands while she continued the healing process with the other. She increased him a bit s her spiritual pressure so she could have the healing process be a bit faster.. But with his wounds.. Even with her amount of spiritual pressure it may take her several days. She shut her eyes slightly as she sat there continuing to heal him, looking down as a few of the inner parts of the wounds, beginning to heal. She lowered her spiritual pressure when she was thinking he was healed enough to go look around for possibly needed items. Lyra hopped up glancing down at him for a moment before looking out of the slight cave entrance, she hesitated as she felt the very high spiritual pressure of Ichigo and another Espada. She took off out of the cave glancing back at him slightly, she ran through Las Noches doing flash steps hear and there. She soon found some blankets that were in some of the rooms, she grabbed two, grabbing one of the shirts they had for a Arrancar, and then she found one that looked like it might fit her. Lyra felt a very strong spiritual pressure as she walked through a room that looked like it was meant for meetings. She ran through it to a hallway that was shaped like a I and she was passing through what would be the bottom part of the eye. She glanced down the long part of the hallway only to she... Aizen... Lyra blinked as he turned to face her she quickly did flash step onto his shoulder, just as he was going to grab her ankle she did flash step to the end of the long hallway to what would be the top part of the I. Lyra was still carrying the things that were needed she quickly let her spiritual pressure drop once she knew she was far enough away. She let out quiet breaths as she made it back to were she came in at. Lyra panted looking around a bit of sweat rolling down her forehead wondering why he didn't follow. Maybe caus he knew she was just a 'small fry'. Lyra walked back to the cave quietly sand lightly whisking around her cheek. She walked into the cave looking down at the still resting Grimmjow, she slowly kneeled next to him gently pulling off his jack/shirt since it had been torn in too. She gently put the knew jack/shirt folded next to him, before she began to help with the healing process again. He looks so... Laid back.. Calm.. But when he is really a jerk... But he was handsome and would probably be nice if you kept him on a leash.. UGH! What am I saying! Trying to defend him! Okay. Once he ends up healed all the way, Im just going to leave.


Grimmjow's Dream and Nightmare


Grimmjow stared down at the man that looked like him seeing his eyes peal open, there being women laying in bed with him, out of instinct he was leaving kisses on her head and rubbing her hip as they spooned. The women was still sleeping and he couldn't see her face but she had red and white hair, like the soul reaper that had helped him. He blinked when he heard crying watching as the man that looked like him slowly pulled himself out of bed, he walked through the room, it looking like what a normal human house would look like. Grimmjow watched as the man walked down the hallway and went into a kids room. He then watched the man walk back out with two little babies resting on his shoulder as he walked. But Grimmjow blinked when he heard. " Grimmjow~ " It was the women from the bedroom. Grimmjow stared mouth gapped, he was beginning to think it might happen one day. But as he was watching them he started to smile until.. it all was ripped away..


Grimmjow sat straight up out of a dead sleep, he had sweat running down his forehead. What the hell were you thinking! How could you ever want some thing like that! You would probably have the snottiest kids! And a Soul Reaper! WHAT THE FUCK. Grimmjow rubbed his head slowly as it throbbed he looked at his chest seeing it was still healing he realized his shirt was gone he looked around by him for a moment seeing the new shirt he put it on fixing it the way he liked it. He up turned the collar and rolled up the sleeves leaving the shirt open. Grimmjow looked around for the women Soul Reaper standing up even though he stumbled slightly. He seen her standing there at the entrance of the cave.. He slowly walked over to her gently placing his hand on her shoulder, she didn't even flinch when he touched her shoulder. " Hey women... " Grimmjow said to get her attention since he noticed she had clearly zoned out. He watched her almost fly out of the cave from how surprised she was.

" My name is Lyra Hope, Sir Grimmjow. " Lyra said as she turned to face him, expecting to be slapped by using the Sir slang. " You need to be laying down any way your still healing or does the sixth Espada need me to raise my spiritual pressure again. " Lyra said raising an eyebrow putting her hands on her hips.

" Hey... " Grimmjow growled, he growled a bit more starting to move closer, beginning to raise his hand to slap her until he seen she didn't even flinch. He hesitated before he slapped her, he slapped her hard enough to leave red marks and there was the sound of skin contact.

Lyra held her cheek slightly, clearly holding back crying. But she slapped him right back across the face. " I am not going to take any of your bullshit. So if you want to be healed go lay your ass back down, you so much as try to stop me again I will leave you for a hollow to eat you. " Lyra said getting up in his face like he had her before she was slapped.

Grimmjow blinked eyes widening when she slapped him. That little bitc-. He blinked at what she was saying jerking his head back slightly realizing she was being serious he glared at her for a moment. " The only reason why Im listening to you women is because you saved me. " He said as he huffed and walked back over and sat down on the blanket looking up at her, his now smug face slowly started to look laid back and calm.
