Hello my dear readers! A fic of Arrancars and gangsterism combined. Bleach belong to Kubo-sensei, not me. Enjoy! -Soranryu
I won't be back for dinner, sorry. –Ggio, the text read, and he hit the "send" button before locking his phone. He slipped the phone into his bag and closed his locker before adjusting his sabretooth mask fragment on his head. After ensuring that the mask won't fall off, he strode back to the center of the room where everyone was gathered.
"Listen up, guys. Tonight's fight is an important one. If we lose this one, we lose everything. So go out there and make sure you kick ass!" their king, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, spoke. Nobody said anything, but their determination spoke for them: There is no way they would lose!
Their gang, the Arrancars, is the top notorious gang in town. Occupying the leader's position is Grimmjow, the strongest among them. Under his direct orders are the rest of the 6 Espada. Under the Espada are Fraccions, the Espada's personal fighters. That was in the past, though. Now, the Fraccions are just fighters with lower fighting power than the Espada, but strong nonetheless.
He, Ggio Vega, is a Fraccion. He and five others used to be personal servants for an ex-Espada, but no longer. His ex-master was dead, along with three of the others. Charlotte and Findorr, along with him, were then granted freedom within the gang, no longer belonging to any Espada. The other Fraccions were granted the same freedom when Grimmjow became the Arrancars' king.
More importantly, the Arrancars cannot lose this neighborhood, their main territory. Well, of course their prides are at stake, but for Ggio, there is an entire different reason for wanting to keep this neighborhood under the Arrancars' rule.
His adopted family has been staying here and under the Arrancars' protection for five years. The thought of them under the rule of other gangs made him shudder, especially when he thought of his beloved sister, Flame, catching the attention of the other gang leaders. Even though Flame is his adopted sister, he loves and protects her like she was his own.
He could still remember a few years ago, when Flame's family found him lying in an alley, bleeding his life out. He was beaten up by some drug addicts for stealing their money and one of them stabbed him in the gut. It was Flame who found him, and she had quickly covered his wounds with her small hands, trying to stop the bleeding.
It was futile though, his blood refusing to stop flowing. Her parents soon followed her into the alley, and when they spotted him, they quickly called the ambulance. They stayed with him all the way to the hospital, talking to him so that he'd stayed awake. Flame held onto his hand, never letting go until he went into the operation room.
He also remembered that when he woke up after his operation, Flame greeted him by calling him "brother". He was shocked, of course. Her parents then explained that they decided to adopt him into their family. They didn't mind that he kept his original name and treated him really well. They gave him freedom, provided him new clothes, food, and most importantly, a home.
Their only one condition was to protect Flame. She wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she has this air of innocence that draws people to her. And sometimes, not all were friendly. Ggio actually had to fend off some that were trying to take advantage of her. He was glad he was strong enough.
"Oi, Ggio!" fingers snapped him out of his daze. He looked up to see Findorr. The blonde eyed him curiously before saying, "King paired us up. Let's go." Ggio nodded and cleared his mind, following his friend to their designated area.
For his beloved sister, he would protect this area.
How was it? This idea stemmed from a curious thought of mine about how Arrancars would be if they were gangsters. Hope you guys like the concept! -Soranryu
