BLEACH – Into a New World

OK GUYS!

So. I have to clarify some things. Wait, it might spoil the story...I'll do it at the end...

Ok. So this is a GrimmjowXOC pairing, and even though I've put it under romance, it doesn't start until later. I'm trying to make this really good, so it might take a while for each chapter to come out, and I don't know when or how it's going to end.

And also, I don't known anything/anyone but Nagi. This is Tite Kubo's story.

Now...BEGIN!

P.S Originally, I had Nagi as a third year student, but I realized that it screwed up the timeline, so I changed it to first year (same as Kurosaki/Orihime/others).

Chapter 1: What Have I Done?

Ignoring the spirit trailing behind me, I yawned tiredly as I trudged down the dark street, on my way home from tutor. I was exhausted, and I really needed to sleep.

"Gah!" I had almost tripped over a plushie that was lying randomly in the street. Except, the plushie was very big, and seemed to be bleeding. But plushies don't bleed. I thought. But it can't be an animal either. I mean, what kind of animal looks like that? It was white, but had no hair. It's paws and ears were black, and it had lines all over its body. Could it be…a spirit? I shook my head. It didn't look like any spirit I'd ever seen. But maybe…let's just call it a spirit. Edging closer, I looked at its face. Suddenly, its eyes opened and it growled. Shocked, I scurried backwards. It was alive! But it seemed dangerous. Maybe it would be better to just leave it. Turning, I took a couple of steps before stopping and guiltily looking back at the motionless 'animal'. Sighing, I plodded back. It would've been too inhumane just to leave it there.

"Aughh…" I groaned as I dumped it on the floor of my room. Rolling my shoulders, I winced. It was heavy. Quickly rummaging in the drawers, I found the first aid kit. Then, I gathered some towels and a bucket of hot water to wash off the blood with. Suddenly I noticed that it had a gaping hole in its torso. I frowned. Things didn't look good for this strange looking spirit. Then I reconsidered. Is it even possible for a spirit to die again? I wondered. Unsure if a spirit even needed bandages, I hesitated for a moment, but decided to use them anyway, just so that I wouldn't have to see the blood anymore. "Urk…" I muttered as I tried not to look at the gashes or the hole. I was really bad with blood, but somehow, I managed to bandage it up properly. Sighing, I sat there staring at the spirit, wondering what I was going to do with it. I didn't know the species, I had no idea of its temperament and I had no clue what I was going to do when it woke up. Worn-out, I changed into my pajamas, and snuggled down under my covers. Thank god it's Saturday tomorrow. I thought drowsily before falling asleep.

"Oi girl…girl…" I frowned, puzzled. There was a male voice calling me, but who? Groggily, I opened my eyes to find myself staring into a pair of light blue ones. Sitting bolt upright, I looked cautiously at the 'animal' spirit that was standing beside my bed. I sighed with relief, forgetting about the voice. It seemed fine. Just then, it opened its mouth. "Oi." My jaw dropped. The voice had come from the 'animal'.

"WAAAHHHHHH!" I shrieked as I leapt out of bed, towards the door. Tripping halfway, I fell forward and smacked my head against the doorknob. "Ow! Dammit!" Turning to face the 'animal' as he approached, I pressed my back to the door. Shoving his face in front of mine, he growled.

"Don't ignore me when I talk to you, girl." Crap. He seemed to be angry.

"Uh, yes, sir." I answered, intimidated.

"Good." He sat down on its haunches. "Now tell me, where the hell is this and who the hell are you?"

"Um, this is my room, in my apartment, in Karakura town, in Japan. I'm Kawada Nagi, a first year high school student at Karakura High School." I gulped, hoping my explanation was satisfactory.

"Hm. Karakura town huh?" he repeated slowly, deep in thought. Gathering my courage, I timidly cleared my throat.

"Uh, if I may ask, what are you?" his eyes focused on my face again.

"My name is Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez. Sexta."

"Oh, I see." I nodded my head vaguely. He stared at me.

"No you don't. What's my name?" I swallowed nervously.

"Uh, Sexta?"

"No, that's my rank."

"Um, j-jacks?" he was irritated now.

"You human, I should kill you right now." He growled. I shut my eyes tightly. I KNEW I shouldn't have picked it up. But the blow never came. Opening my eyes slightly, I realized he had moved to the window. "But since I owe you for helping me out, I'll let you live for now. Just call me Grimmjow." Breathing a sigh of relief, I relaxed slightly. Peeking at it curiously, I wondered if it was safe to ask another question. Standing up slowly, I put my hand on the doorknob behind me, ready to run if I had to.

" Um, how is it that you can talk?" I cautiously asked, ready to sprint.

"What's wrong with me talkin', huh?" he snapped. I flinched, turning the doorknob slightly.

"Nothing, but…um, well, it's just that, you, uh, you speak Japanese very well…" I mumbled.

"Hmph. Of course. I'm an Arrancar, the most intelligent, powerful and humanoid form of the Menos." Seeing my blank expression, he sighed.

"I don't know why I even bother." He muttered to himself. "No more questions!" he snapped after seeing my expectant face. Damn. I muttered silently to myself. I wanted to know what a Menos was.

Although I found him menacing at first, he had a child-like curiosity that made him less intimidating. One of the first things he found was toothpaste.

"Hey, girl, what's this?" he asked pawing at the tube of toothpaste that he bought into my room.

"It's toothpaste. You can't eat it." I murmured absentmindedly as I focused on my homework. Hearing that, he grew annoyed.

"Hah? I can't eat this? What the hell do you mean 'you can't eat this?' I'll eat whatever the hell I want!" he growled and with that, he ripped open the tube of toothpaste and squirted it into his mouth, only to spit it out a second later. "Shit! What the hell is this? It's gross!" he wiped his paw across his mouth.

"Because it's not for eating." I sighed patiently.

"Well then you should've told me earlier!" he snapped, and sulking, he curled into a ball.

"I'm pretty sure I did." I muttered under my breath. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I leaned back in my chair. Dealing with Grimmjow was just too tiring. Even though he was wounded, he was restless and snappy. Slumping down further in my chair, I sighed. I was stuck with a violent, rude 'animal', which not only talked, but talked nonsense. I had to figure out what to do with him soon, it was impossible for him to stay. I should never have picked him up. I groaned to myself for the fifteenth time that day. Looking up at the ceiling, I shook my fist. Why, God? Why me? I was just a normal, slightly lazy, mild girl who just happened to be able to see spirits. Yawning, I decided that he would just have to wait until tomorrow. I needed my sleep.

"Oi, girl…girl…" It was Grimmjow's voice. Groggily, I opened my eyes to find myself staring into a pair of light blue ones. But the animal face that I was expecting wasn't there. Instead, it was a human one, with a piece of bone covering his right cheek and a shock of electric blue hair. Fleetingly I wondered how anyone could have blue hair before my jaw dropped. How the HELL did this weirdo get in my room?

"WAAAHHHHHH!" I shrieked as I leapt out of bed, towards the door. Tripping halfway, I fell forward and smacked my head against the doorknob. "Ow! Dammit!" It was almost a replay of the previous morning. The rather good-looking blue haired man sat there looking exasperated.

"Oi, oi, why is it that your reaction is the same every morning?" he complained with Grimmjow's voice.

"You-you…what did you do with Grimmjow? DID YOU EAT HIM?" I shrieked hysterically.

"I AM Grimmjow, you idiot!" he yelled, irritated.

"You can't trick me!" I yelled back "Grimmjow's an animal type thing!" lunging forward, he grabbed my collar and shoved his face close to mine.

"I. AM. GRIMMJOW. DAMMIT!" he snarled.

"Uh, ok." I answered unwillingly, leaning back as far as I could. The personality certainly matched. Glancing down, I caught sigh of the gaping hole in his stomach. I felt faint. "Um…" I cleared my throat "just to let you know…you, ah, you have a h-hole in your stomach." I swallowed. I felt like I was going to be sick.

"So?" he raised his eyebrows as he released me "you were fine with it when I was in Adjuchas form." I gaped.

"Eh? You're really Grimmjow? But, that would mean that you're a spirit, and spirits have chains here but no holes there." I pointed to his chest, then to his stomach. He rolled his eyes.

"I told you, I'm an Arrancar." The word meant nothing to me, but I guessed he was saying he was different from normal spirits.

"But-but, how did you change into…" I gestured at his muscular body "…this form?"

"I had to revert back to my Adjuchas form so I could escape from Hueco Mundo without being detected." His expression darkened "That damn Nnoitra, lookin' down on me like that, almost makes me hope that he got bashed by that Kurosaki kid. " He muttered.

"Kurosaki?" I asked, eyes wide "Kurosaki Ichigo?" He glanced at me.

"You know him?"

"There's a boy called Kurosaki Ichigo at my school." Reconsidering, I shook my head. "They're probably not the same person though. I mean, he stands out with his orange hair, and he has a weird kimono cosplay fetish, but I don't think-"

"That's the one." Grimmjow cut me off. "He's the one who almost defeated me."

"Defeated?" I gave him a strange look. Just what is he on about? There was so much I didn't understand, so many questions that I wanted to ask, I didn't even know where to start. But it wasn't like Grimmjow was going to answer them. His explanations just made me more confused. Maybe Kurosaki? I wondered, since it seemed like Grimmjow knew him. Suddenly I noticed the time.

"Crap! I'm going to be late!" I sprinted to the bathroom and was out within minutes. Skipping breakfast, I rushed out of the door, slowing only to yell to Grimmjow not to break anything while I was away.

"Made it…" I puffed as I entered the bakery.

"Morning Nagi!" it was Orihime, smiling and waving at me from behind the counter.

"Morning." I smiled back. It sure was nice to be able to understand what other people were saying. Orihime was another student from my school, who worked at the bakery with me. When I started the job a year ago, she was the one who helped me out and explained everything to me. After that, we became good friends. Suddenly, her smile disappeared and her eyes grew wide. Confused, I glanced at myself. I'm not in my pajamas am I? I wondered.

"Woman." Startled, I spun around to see a blue haired man staring at Orihime.

"Grimmjow!" I cried appalled. He had followed me all the way to my part time job! Suddenly realizing, I clamped my hands over my mouth. For a second, I had forgotten that Orihime was there. Now she's going to think I'm insane. I thought dismally. Hesitantly glancing at her, I saw her staring at me in shock. Quickly I fixed my eyes on the floor again, ears burning. I knew it.

"Nagi, you know Grimmjow?" My head shot up.

"You can see him? You know him?" I spluttered, astonished.

"Yes." She had an uncharacteristically grim, and slightly scared look on her face. "But, I'll tell you the rest later. There's somewhere I need to take you after our shift."

Ok, so. I don't think it's possible for a Arrancar to turn back into it's Adjuchas form when it wants, but i did my research and it didn't say they couldn't either, so...yeah...

Also, although this is in english, the actual setting is in Japan, so it's not a typo when Nagi says "you speak Japanese well."

Lastly, in the Japan, they usually say the surename first, then the first name, but they switch it around for the english version. I chose to stick with the Japanese version so yeah...

I hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter~~
