Chapter one: The beginning,middle and fall!
It was late at night when Inoue felt Ichigo's reitsu enter Hueco Mundo, she glanced at her barred window,looking at the moon for the millionth time, she was willing for him to not come,willing Ichigo to go back and save himself and the others,it was a battle that's too hard to defeat.
Inoue moved to the couch and sat,smoothing out the fabric and lays her hands in her lap. Head bent,she stares at her hands,thinking of her friends. "Were they that intent on saving her,risking their own lives?" she thought,she found herself crying,tears dropping one by one in her lap she hastily wiped her eyes with the back of her hands,she must remain strong this is her new home now and her job is to be obedient to Aizen.
Outside her door there is commotion,yelling and her door is opened,the hall light flooding into her room blinding her,she raises her hand to her eyes,warding off the bright illumination. It wasn't til she heard a familiar voice,that matched her orange haired friend.
"Ichigo!" she leaps up and runs to him,but instead of an embrace,she ran full force into what felt like an immovable brick wall. "Mmph!" Inoue fell back,her arms flailing to keep her balance,she reaches out and Ichigo curses,his arms shot out grabbing her hands before falling to the hard ground.
"Aye, Inoue! Are you okay?" Ichigo asked, helping her to steady herself,then lets go of her hands,drops them to his sides. "For a moment I thought you were going to hurt yourself." his eyes in his permanent scowl, softens when he sees her blink and then smile at him. "I'm good Kurosaki." she says candid "...but how? I mean..." she looks to the side and then back to Ichigo, "We're going to have to run fast ,aren't we,Kurosaki?"
"I'm afraid that looks to be the case Inoue." he walks to the doorway and peeks both ways down the hall looking for aranacars.
"I don't see anyone but that doesn't mean we're out of the clear."
"Hai! I see."
"Inoue..." Ichigo starts to say.
"Ichigo I didn't...she frowns and sighs..there's no time for this but do you trust me,Kurosaki?"
"Well yes,of course Inoue." he knew she didn't leave on her own,he always knew she wasn't a traitor to them or soul society.
"For what it's worth Inoue, I never believed everyone."
She smiles warmly,places her hand on his forearm. "Let's leave this place behind Kurosaki." she strolls to the doorway,Ichigo follows her and steps into the well lighted hall with Inoue behind him,his arm out protectively,keeping her within arms length of him,he wants her close to him as possible.
He has to work swift and decisively. He back tracked where he came from,they were successful for the most part they had to hide once in a little room that seemed to have no purpose but be dark and resembled an overly sterilized,plain,white clinic. There were cots in the room but they looked just as cold as the room felt.
Both of them waited for the foot steps to pass by at first they stopped by the door and Ichigo was prepared,he drew his zanpakutou out and rised it above his head ready to bring it down on the assailant's head. But no one came in,they watched the shadowed pair of feet under the door,turn and disappear,foot steps sounding dimmer,they waited five more minutes which felt like an internity and slowly Ichigo opened the door a crack and peaked out,he saw nothing and stepped all the way out motioning for Inoue to come out.
"Are you sure it's okay?" whispered Inoue,worried with concern she played with the fabric,rolling it between her thumb and forefinger.
"mhmm.." Kurosaki mumbled to her he grabs her hand and darts down a zig zag path that seemed to take forever,they passed windows that opened to the desert letting the moon spill into the stead. They finally came to four crossroads and Ichigo stared at the three large corridors,he didn't remember this,but he knows he came this way,he recognized everything except this,something isn't right. "Something was off,very off."just as he finished his thoughts, he heard a loud grinding noise and wall inf front of them was rapidly blocking their path, he tugged on Inoue and both of them ran.
Ichigo pulled Inoue hard in front of him and shoved her in between the closing wall, she made it through but fell onto her side and slid a little,her hands sliding on the marble flooring, reddening her hands, she grunted but otherwise didn't complain,she looked up to see Ichigo slide past in time,the wall closing on the hem of his shinigami garb.
"Shit!" he yanked the hem out ripping it. "I'm going to hear about that from Renji" he smirked at Inoue,
"but I'll tell him to shut it!" Ichigo walked up to Inoue and held his hand out,pulling her up. "Sorry about that Inoue, If I could have been gentler, I would have been."
Inoue brushes her hands on her clothing,ignoring the sting coming from her hands.
"We should go before..." he sentence was cut off by laughter coming from one of the long corridors,they both dart off in the opposite corridor and are met with a smirking Yammy.
"My,my....we found our lost pets." Yammy exclaimed in wild amusement. "How far did you honestly think you'd get? Not very bright for a shinigami." Yammy laughs and smirks at the two lost pets, "Ahhh I'm going to have fun."
