Gift

Ch.1 – Unique Arrancar

"RRRRR!" A blue-eyed, blue-haired man with a bone piece on his cheek growls out in anger as he assults a wall with sharp claws. "I want a hottie!"

"What is your ailment now stupid cat?" A hollow male voice sounds behind him.

"Lay off you weak bat!" He growls out. "Its not fair that you get special treatment!"

"I don't Grimmjow."

"Like hell you don't Ulquiorra!" Grimmjow turns to face a man with long black hair, green eyes with vibrant green stripes going down his face on both sides with a bone piece nesting on half of his head. "I've seen her!"

"Her? You speak of a female?"

"Don't pretend you don't know about it! I saw her with Aizen and Gin! I heard them talking, saying that she was for you!"

"Ah, there you are #4. Aizen hasss a gift for you." A man with silver hair, smiling eyes and a grin walks up to the two. "And you, #6, are to be punished for evesdropping." He grabs Grimmjow by the ear and walks off.

Ulquiorra proceeds to walk down the ahll to the meeting room. He pushes the door open, walks past the table and up to the chair at the back of the room where a man with brown hair and brown eyes waits patiently with a smile on his face. "You asked for me Aizen?"

"Ah, Ulquiorra, espada #4. As one of my favorites and a high-ranking arrancar I have a gift for you." He reaches over and pulls a chain up off the floor, giving it what appears to be a light tug. Something hits the floor near Ulquiorra's feet and he looks down to see a female. Black hair with light waves, startling brown eyes, a pair of silver ears and tail, a hallow hole in her center and a collar made out of bone. Observing her outfit, she was the same white pants as the rest of the espada, but instead of a coat she has a fighting kimono with 4 painted on the back. "This little arrancar is for you." Aizen gains Ulquiorra's attention. "Gin decided to give her wolf features while I chose her outfit. She may appear weak because she is new and female but she should be up to your standards."

"What am I to do with her?" He hears a whimper and looks down to see the girl looking up at him and holding onto his pant leg.

Aizen chuckles at the display. "She has already accepted her place by your side. It was a thought that you may gain more power by exploring some of your locked up emotions. She has been trained for combat and as for her voice… she won't actually speak unless you tell her to. So," Auzen tosses the chain in his hand to Ulquiorra who catches it effortlessly, vaguely noticing that the chain is attached to the girls neck just under her bone collar piece. "She requires no weapon, she can make her own out of energy. Her name is Kagome." And with that, Aizen shoos them out of the room.

"…I will show you where my quarters are." Ulquiorra, still holding ontot he chain leash, pulls her along the hallway. His room's most prominent features are the giant bed on one side of the main room and the giant window on the other. "This is my… our room." He corrects as he removes the chains and tosses them in a corner. "Emotions… I will have to travel to the library to research this." He walks out of the room, the girl following in his footsteps. Halfway to the library they are stopped by a man with long black hair and beady eyes.

"Well, well. New arrancar huh? She's kinda cute…." The man moves to push Ulquiorra out of the way when his wrist is trapped in a bone-crushing grip and a growl echoes off the walls. "A feisty one. And he gave her to you? Well if you don't want her I'll certainly take her –"

"Come Kagome." Ulquiorra is already further down the hall. Kagome is immediately beside him. "We mustn't touch what isn't ours Nnoitra." Within the next second the espada is shot out the nearest window by a green light.
