Chapter 1: Uncertain Path

His heart pounded as sheer anger and adrenaline rushed through his veins. Her face happily beaming at him in his mind's eye. The image just drove his muscles past their max. Footsteps echoed his own. He glanced to the right.

Beside him, running equally as hard but more gracefully, was the head of Kuchiki clan. The noble's light grey eyes were narrowed in concentration. Though his pride and honor would not allow him to speak of it aloud, he was racing to protect his younger adopted sibling.

Both men resented each other to an extent but had enough respect to become rivals.

And this time, they would side only once; for they had the same goal in heart.

Save the girl that was important to them.

Kiki could recall the quick pain that entered her heart.

Grimmjow's face while he watched her fall.

After that, all she could remember was being engulfed by darkness.

She didn't have a sense of time. All she was able to do was float endlessly through whatever world she inhabited now.

Kiki could feel some things slip away from her. Humanity, sanity, and her soul. It seemed like she was being reborn into something else; something different.

Faces flashed by her cloudy eyes. Family, friends, and a certain Shinigami.

Kiki watched helplessly as the Captain grew fainter and fainter. His white cloak being eaten by blackness. Eventually, the only thing that remained was the sound of the bells he liked to put on the tips of his hair.

The last jingle and she felt like she was being truly erased. Her name becoming unclear. The girl was finally losing herself to this empty space.

One last figure appeared before her. It looked like her, only it's skin was deathly pale and it's eyes were colored in black with golden iris.

It stretched out it's hand in offering.

The lost girl cocked her head to the side. What did it want?

"It's time to wake up..." It spoke, the voice ghostly.

"Now awake, Kiki el Lobo!"

The dark space shattered allowing light to shine forth. Her eyes fluttered, trying to push back tears. She awoke in a room with a strange light above her.

"Miss Kiki? Are you awake?" A male's voice asked her.

With a groan, the girl struggled to get up.

She leant on her forearms and elbow. Her hair creating a curtain that hid her face.

"Who..is...Kiki?" The girl asked with a hushed tone. It hurt to speak.

The men looked back and forth to each other. This was unexpected.

"Why, that's you. That is your name, Kiki." The gentleman with slicked back brown haired smiled smoothly.

A pink haired man with boney glasses bounched up and down behind the kind man.

"Ah, my little experiment is awake! How darling!" He cooed at her.

She flinched at the man. He was bit freighting...

"She is a not toy to play doctor on, asshole!" A harsh voice growled at the odd man.

The girl felt like she recognized that voice.

The kind man saw she knew the Espada that just shouted at the scientist.

"Kiki, dear, would you like see him?" He asked gently.

She nodded and he moved from her sight.

Behind the him was a disgruntled man with blue hair and aqua eyes that gleamed with anger and annoyance. He had a hole in his pelvis, which she found odd. But other than his appearance, the girl found him comforting.

The angery man noticed she was staring at him and he returned the stare.

Jade locked with aqua.

"H-Hi," She spoke with shyness.

"Hey," He replied.

"W-What's your name?"

"You know my name. It's Grimmjow, remember?"

Embrassed, she looked away.

"Grimmjow, is seems that Miss Kiki does not recall anything. Be easy with her. She much more dangerous than before." The gentleman muttered the last part.

Grimmjow glared daggers at Aizen. "I wonder who's fault that is." The blue hair male shoved his way past Aizen.

Kiki shivered due to the chill in the lab and fact she had no clothing.

Grimmjow frowned and shrugged off his jacket. "Put this on, you're cold."

Kiki was careful to cover herself as she slipped on his jacket. It smelt like battle and sweat.

"Does she need anymore attention?" He asked without taking his eyes off her.

"No, but do be careful with her. Since she has lost her memories, though I am not aware of it's extent, she's pretty much powerless. I'd watch her if I were you."

Grimmjow snorted and began to scoop her off the table. Kiki went still.

"Look, it's okay. I'm not gonna hurt ya." He threw a cold glance over his shoulder at Aizen and Granz.

Kiki blushed and allowed him to pick her up.

"She's stayin' with me, no arguing to it."

Aizen put his hands up in truce. Granz merely told Grimmjow to return her soon so he could preform tests on her to see how far back her memory lose went.

"That's all you better be testin'." The Sexta warned before leaving.

Kiki sat bewildered on Grimmjow's bed. This area, this people, all of this; made no sense to her. Everything was foreign to her.

The realization slowly crept up on her. Fear traveled up her spine and caused her to shiver. Sweat began to ran down her face from the heat and stress.

Grimmjow noticed Kiki's breathe becoming ragged.

"Hey, hey! Calm down! It's all right!" He flashed over to Kiki, holding her soft arms in his rough hands.

The newly born Arrancar slowed her breathing down to be steady. Her eyes still wide in shock.

"You must be pretty disorientated, huh?" He muttered, tucking a wild lock of hair behind her.

"Why is it so hot?" She asked, her body's temperature still not adjusting to the high degree around her.

"We're in a desert, girly." Grimmjow grinned lazily.

Kiki blushed and looked to the ground. She felt silly. But there was something else unnerving her.

Kiki brought her gaze sneakliy back up to his. She couldn't repress the tremble that shook her being. Under his strong gaze, Kiki felt off.

It was if she was a lamb and he a lion. Prey and predator.

"Am I scarin' ya?" Grimmjow cocked his head to see her eyes.

"Um, no. It's just I feel funny around you." She mumbled.

The Sexta was taken off guard for a moment. What did thay mean? He wasn't sure what to say. Perhaps Aizen and Granz put her off balance.

"I'm not gonna bite ya, girly. You're safe with me." His mouth moved before his mind comprehended what just happened.

"Truly?" She looked up at him like whatever he said made the world go'round. She believed in him.

"Yeah, you got my word." Grimmjow folded his arms.

Kiki smiled and visibly relaxed more.

Whew, that was easy. Kind of. Grimmjow didn't forget she was completely nude under his jacket. He had to find her a outfit to fit her. Though, the feline warrior wouldn't mind if the girl remained in her current state...

A soft tap at his door snapped Grimmjow out of his lustful thoughts.

"Enter,"

A tall caramel skinned female stepped in his courters. Her blond hair was in different lengths but somehow matched her the look she was giving. The woman's eyes were stunning but also mirrored deadliness.

Her green gaze was cold as she looked at Grimmjow.

"Aizen-sama has requested of me that I find some clothing for our newest member."

Her eyes shifted to Kiki on the matress.

She couldn't tell if the woman was smiling but her eyes were closed and her tone was a more happier one than she used with Grimmjow.

"Greetings, I am Tier Harribel. The Espada Tres, three."

"H-hi there, uh, they call me Kiki so I guess that'd be me." She smiled nervously and rubbed the back of her head.

"Kiki, if you don't mind, I will escourt you to my room. Surely, I can locate you something."

Grimmjow huffed and bent to pick up Kiki but Harribel stopped him.

"Now now, Sexta, I'm sure Kiki can walk without the assistence of a man." The Espada sneered.

"Have it your way, bitch." He stepped away before giving Kiki a reassuring look.

Kiki sighed and carefully scooted off his bed. Her legs were wobbly at fist but gradually with each step, they became stronger.

Harribel opened one arm in case she needed an aide.

"I'm okay, thanks." Kiki smiled kindly.

"If you are certain." She sent Grimmjow another steely glare. "We shall return when she wishes so." And spun around on her heel with her arm about Kiki's little shoulders.

Eventually the two Captains took seperate paths. Ruika was in one direction while Kik was another. Neither men wished one another luck or kind words. Instead they stayed focused on their reasons of journeying to this God forsaken land.

The portal opened for the large Shinigami and his small assistant Reaper. He stood at the entrance and looked on the sandy plains.

He could smell Hollows and death everywhere.

Not having any sence of direction, the captain took off towards the largest spiritual pressure he could locate.

Jumping from the opening in the sky, he landed with a loud boom. The sand shot up in the air around him, creating a sandy column.

Kenpachi took off towards the pressure. It seemed familiar so he decided to follow it.

"You better not let me get lost, Yachiru!" He barked.

"No way, Ken-chan! I'd never do that to you!" The little pink haired girl ranted.

Answering with a grunt, Kenpachi raced off.

After what felt like hours, the two encountered a large herd of Hollows.

Zaraki's eye twitched. This would take at least a day to clear!

And he did not have time for this!

Harribel entroduced Kiki to her closest friends, which she called her Fraccion. The three girls took her in warmly.

Emilou Apacci was a tomboy of sorts. Her personaility reminded her faintly of someone but Kiki couldn't remember.

Franceska Mila Rose was what Kiki would always now picture of an amazon. She was beautiful but also had a nasty temper like Emilou.

Sung-Sun was obviously the most mature of the trio. She was composed and often rationalized for her friends.

The trio took to Kiki very well. Anyone Harribel liked, they did.

Before they ventured into the closet, Sung-Sun thought out loud.

"I wonder if she has a number like you, Harribel-sama."

That hadn't occured to the third Espada. Aizen had said this girl would be a powerful piece in his game but how powerful did he mean?

"She is right, Kiki-san. Now-" Harribel was cut off by Emilou getting all jittery and pouncing on Kiki. Squeals and laughing followed by Emilou investigating Kiki's being.

"She sure is ticklish," Rose observed.

"That is quite obvious," Sung-Sun looked at her from the corner of her eye.

Harribel sighed. She had enough of this foolishness.

She hoisted the two by the collar off the floor. Kiki flushed with the loss of oxygen from laughter. Emilou looked disappointed.

"Disgraceful. You shouldn't invade individuals privacy like that, Emilou." Her leader scolded.

"Well, if it makes any difference, she doesn't have a number." She huffed.

Harriel's green eyes narrowed in thought and suspicion.

Then what had that man really implied? Is this girl a joke or something to enrage the enemy with?

Harribel scowled when Kiki was removed from her grip. The girl vanished into the endless closet.

"Harribel-sama! Would you mind giving your opinion on her outfits?" Sung-Sun called out from behind the doors.

The Arrancar agreed and settled herself in a chair facing them.

What did Aizen have in store for this girl?

Many outfits later, the group had finally chose one. Kiki was also happy with how it turned out so it was a big plus. The women chattered endless about things and how Kiki looked in her new clothing style.

"Yes, yes, much better than that dark drab thing you came in earlier." Rose commented. Kiki looked at the darker skinned girl questioningly.

"Oh, I forgot, you don't remember." Rose was about to go forward with the conversation. But a dark menciful glare coming from Harribel shut her up.

The memoryless girl was stuck between a rock and a hard place. This people seemed nice yet something deep down told her otherwise.

"If you excuse me," Kiki exited the main room and shut herself in the bathroom.

Jade eyes traveled to the image in the mirror.

She stared into her reflection. A short girl with shoulder length hair stood dressed in white pants that flared out at the bottom with a tight tank top like shirt. A jaw bone wove around her neck like a chocker. It was all that was left her Hollow formed as she was told.

Hollows are supposed to have a hole in their chest...

Kiki felt around her middle but found nothing.

Her hand traveled down her strenum felt her fingers dip. Kiki quckly unzipped her shirt and saw the hole. It was below her breasts just above her navel.

Kiki let out a breath and re zipped her top. Her palm placed itself upon the glass as she leant her forehead on it.

Unfamiliar eyes stared back.

These clothes, these people, this place; Kiki put a hand on the decoritive bone on her throat.

Even her ownself felt uncertain.
