Bleach fanfic written from the POV of Ulquiorra.

"I belong to him apparently." I stared at myself in the mirror and the 4th Espada stared back. I took a deep breath and sighed. It looked like today had got off to a really bad start, and all this had come about becuase Grimmjow had made a pass at me. Then Aizen had stepped in and made his statement. Grimmjow stood and laughed then walked off leaving me and Aizen in the same room. I just stared at him as he extended his arms towards me. "No", I turned on my heel and left. Now I find myself staring into the mirror wondering what to do. Why does he want me anyways? When he has the girl. Yeah, that reminds me I have to go collect the idiots and find her. If he wants her that badly why can't he go and get her himself?
"Hey Ulq!" Oh look, one of the aforementioned idiots. Nevermind Aizen's Army, perhaps it should be renamed as Aizen's Idiot Army, myself not included in this.
"ULQ... Hurry it up!"
I looked through the mirror, I could see the figure leaning against the doorframe waving. It wasn't even worth turning round to speak to him.
"I thought you'd gone" Hoped, more like.
"Yeah I came back" mores the pity.
"Hurry it up Ulq" Give me a reason not to kill him in the most painful way possible.
"I have a name, use it properly or don't talk to me at all." really hope its the latter. Hey he shut up - it worked!
"Are you coming or not?" wishful thinking, I spoke too soon.
"What are you doing here"
"I'm bored, I thought I'd come with you." no, i don't want to be stuck with him either, I have an idea "Grimmjow, you fetch the girl whilst I get some sleep." hopefully he'll go and leave me in peace
"Aizen - your loverboy is looking for you." ah, time for a change of plan
"He's not my loverboy and I'm not his either" perhaps I will go it might be safer, but I'll still be stuck with annoying idiots. Oh well the girl might provide some amusement, but if she's as weak as she was last time we met, my boredom is going to set in quite quickly.
"Hey Ulq, stop staring at yourself and lets get moving!" give me time and I really will kill him. Him, and the rest of the idiots.
So with Yammy (big dumb idiot that likes hitting things) and Grimmjow (annoying idiot) in tow we travelled to the real world to find the girl. By the time we got there I just wanted to strangle everyone for bickering. I'm getting a headache!
I can sense her aura, she's by herself in a shop. this SHOULD be easy, however, if the idiots weren't stood around leering over her then it owuld be better. I watch her from afar, happilly going about her life, blissfully unaware of us. For a moment I wanted to grab her and take her somewhere safe, where no-one could find either of us. What the hell was I thinking? I could probalby escape the idiots, but Aizen was another matter, especially as he seemed to want me so badly. Would he track me down and kill the girl? No, he needs her so badly for his plans.
I looked up, the idiots were walking away from me. I strolled after them "Hey!" I called, "She left, we're following" was the reply. I was bored, I really didn't want to be here. My brain reverted back to my previous thought, I still hadn't thought about what (if anything) Aizen would do to me, if (rather when) he caught me. maybe it would be possible to blame it on the idiots, let them take the brunt of his wrath. Was it insanity that materialised in that brief moment? Or did I just want something to cure my boredom? Who knows, but I decided to try it out. I could still feel her aura, and the idiots were nowhere near her. I plane-shifted to her location, grabbed her and planeshifted out again. Her shopping basket dropping with a crash to the floor, the contents bouncing out everywhere.
I masked my reiatsu from the moment I grabbed her. It would make it difficult for the others to follow. She was stunned, and didn't know what hit her. She never struggled or cried out. i took her to a place only I knew of. I was exploring once and found it, and sometimes I'd come here and reflect.
"Let go of me" I obliged.
"Why did you take me in the first place?" she was angry, it was understandable.
"Aizen was going to take you, I didn't want that to happen." Was I feeling compassion?
"I don't need your sympathy, take me home"
"The rest of the Arrancar will kill your friends to get to you"
"I'll heal them, I won't let them die"
"Like you did in our last battle?"
She stopped and looked at me, as if remembering "I...I've grown stronger since then"
"You'll need it, there's no escaping his grasp"
"So are you taking me to him now?"
Well was I? I didn't know, my orders were to grab her and take her to Aizen, but I was never one for rules.
"So what happens now? Will you take me home? or will you keep me here? You talk about Aizen and me trying to escape him, but you've not said how you'll escape him when he finds out what you've done. Now its obvious that you've taken me without his knowing." I quickly looked round, something was drawing near. I put my hand on her arm
"HEY!" she tried to pull away
"No, I'm not going to harm you, I'm trying to hide your aura, so no-one can find you."
She stopped and looked at me, "why are you doing this for me?"
Yes, why? Love was a human emotion, why was I caring for her this much?
"I don't know, I just didn't want Aizen to get his hands on you. He would force you to heal the Arrancar whilst we fought in Soul Society"
"But now?"
"I will kill anyone who tries to harm you." What was I saying?
"Will you let me heal my friends?"
"Yes if they are close by"
She considered this, "Ok, I'll stay then, but will you take me home please"
I lowered my head, "I cannot - there are Shinigami there, you must understand, the time is not right for this battle"
She seemed to accept this.
