Well here's chapter 1. Hopefully I get a few reviews.. It's the beginning of Orihime and Ulquiorra's romance. Oh and there might be a few bad grammar but oh well!
Enjoy!--Gissy
Oh! btw! i did an AMV about a love triangle between Ulquiorra, Orihime and Ichigo! Check it out.. the link is in my profile...enjoy! :)
As I gaze out the window to the bright moon, I realize that I'm truly alone. I start to think about the times I was happy. I always seemed to have a smile on my face. Now I can't even remember the last time I smiled. I have nothing and no one here; all I have are my memories. The memories I long to live again. …
" Girl with the strange powers! Here's your dinner. Eat it all up; we don't want Aizen-sama to get angry. He wants his special lady healthy so he can use you as he pleases. Pssh, I really don't know why he keeps you. He's a fool if you ask me. Now eat!" said the guard.
She looked at the plate and turned back to watch the moon. She had no appetite. For the first time in her life, she wasn't hungry.
Mmm Ice cream and donuts would have been nice.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Get up woman!"
She could barely open her eyes; she felt them so heavy.
I must have fallen into a deep sleep.
As she tried to get up, she rubbed her eyes and as she looked up, she saw him looking down at her.
"I see you didn't touch your dinner." Said Ulquiorra.
"I wasn't hungry."
"You will eat tonight's dinner. That's an order."
"As you wish."
It was strange; Orihime didn't feel fear towards him. She knew that at any given chance he would kill her but she did not fear him. He walked towards the door, stopped and turned to look at Orihime.
"Aizen wants you alive, so we will keep it that way until decided otherwise. Do you understand?" said Ulquiorra.
"Yes."
He turned back around and proceeded to go out the door when out of nowhere Orihime yelled out his name.
"Ulquiorra-san!"
He turned back and looked straight into Orihime's eyes with the coldest stare.
Nervous laugh"Umm, it sure gets boring around here. I was wondering if you could get me a notebook or something, so I could entertain myself. I could even write a novel or something! Although I'm not that great of a writer but a few over thrown commas won't hurt, right? See I just thought that may-"
"NO!" said Ulquiorra.
"What do you think you are here for? Surely not to write 'novels'! You are alive, aren't you? Well that should be all the entertainment you need."
He turned around and left.
Yes I'm alive, but why do I feel dead. My hopes and dreams vanished the day Ulquiorra brought me to this sick world. I do not regret it because Kurosaki-kun and everyone else are still alive. I at least bought them some time to prepare for the battle. I wonder how is everyone; If Kurosaki- kun has gotten any stronger. I 'm sure he has.
Orihime gets up from the floor where she fell asleep. She sits down on her bed and gazes outside her window to watch the moon.
:sighs: I can never tell when its morning or night here. It always looks the same.
What to do? I'm hungry. It has been a while since Ulquiorra-san came to scold me .Ugh, I don't want to go outside and ask someone for food. Hmm .. I'll just wait till one of the guards come and give me food.
"GGRROOOOOOEEEEEERRRRR"
Stupid stomach!! I should just look for the food myself.
Orihime gets up from her bed and turns to look at the door. She hesitates to go outside. She fears that someone may accuse her of trying to run away, which would make things even more complicated. She starts to think that maybe it wouldn't be a problem for her to go outside. One thing is because there's no guard guarding the door, and second the door is unlocked. They know that there's no way of her escaping Hueco Mundo, so there's no need for them to take such precautions. Orihime walks toward the door and turns the doorknob slowly. She opens the door and peaks outside. The hallway is very narrow and the walls are white. The floor is shinny and also white. The hallway is very lonely and silent.
Woooaah.. Where is everybody? I hope I don't get lost. Hmm I could probably find the kitchen somewhere here! Well if they have one. Well they should have one, or else how would they cook the food?! I haven't cooked in a long time.. I could probably make something yummy like strawberry jam with sliced cucumbers and hot dogs with hot sauce on top. That would be good. Now where am I going? Oh maybe it's around this corner..
"What are you doing outside your room, Orihime?"
Orihime's eyes widen and she couldn't take another step. Her heart was pounding and she didn't know how to react. He was right behind her.
"U-Ulquiorra-san?"
"I'm not going to repeat myself Orihime, why are you not in your room?" said Ulquiorra
Orihime turned around to look at Ulquiorra.
" I'm sorry Ulquiorra-san, I was hungry and there was no guard around, so I was looking for a kitchen to make myself something." said Orihime.
Orihime was looking at Ulquiorra and he just stared at her, not saying a word. She continued to explain herself.
"And so I was wondering around here hoping to find it nervous laugh but umm you uh caught me. But I wasn't doing or planning to do anything wrong, I was just hungry…" said Orihime.
Ulquiorra just stared at her, which made Orihime uneasy. It was silent for a few minutes, which felt forever for Orihime. She just waited to see what he would do.
"This is what happens when you don't eat your dinner, Orihime. I don't want you to do this again. You will eat when you are told to. You're lucky that it was me that found you. Anyone else wouldn't have hesitated to kill you. Do you understand? said Ulquiorra.
"Yes."
Ulquiorra walked towards Orihime and she was getting nervous. He walked right passed her and stopped a few feet away from her. Orihime turned around to look at him and his back was still turned.
" The kitchen is a few doors down, I'll take you there so you can get something to eat. Don't make this a habit. This will not happen again. Do you know why?" said Ulquiorra.
"Because I will eat my meals when I'm told to."
"Exactly."
"Thank you, Ulquiorra-san."
Ulquiorra continued to walk and Orihime followed right behind him. He opened a door that was bit bigger from the rest of the doors. She entered the room and it was the kitchen. The kitchen wasn't really big but it had everything you need. Orihime looked around to see what she could make. She was surprised that they had a variety of things to make. She assumed that since they are Espadas and Arrancars they wouldn't eat or if they did eat, it would be souls. Ulquiorra stayed by the door with his arms crossed and watched Orihime look for food. He was a little surprised how many things she took out. She had rice, corn, cucumbers, peanut butter, and milk. He looked at her as if she was strange.
"Are you hungry Ulquiorra-san?"
"What are you trying to make?"
"Well I've been craving to eat sliced cucumbers with peanut butter on top and some rice and corn on top of that, and to wash it off with some milk." said Orihime with a smile.
"Then no I am not hungry."
"Well IIIII like it. Are you sure you wouldn't like to try one?"
"No and you're weird for even trying to digest that."
Orihime takes a bite of her meal and smiles at Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra felt a little strange that he actually felt like smiling back at her but he turned around and walked towards the door.
"You should hurry so I can take you to your room." said Ulquiorra.
Orihime ate her last cucumber and drank the last bit of her milk. She wiped her mouth with a cloth and ran towards Ulquiorra and followed behind him. There was silence when they were walking to Orihime's room. Orihime looked down at her feet as she walked and looked at Ulquiorra's back and then looked at her feet again. She looked up at Ulquiorra's back again and wanted to say something.
"Uhm.. umm Ulquiorra-san, I just wanted to tell you thank you for today. It was very nice of you to'
" I wasn't trying to be nice. Aizen-sama wants you alive and it's my responsibility to keep it that way. I was just following orders. Don't think of my actions of anything else but orders." said Ulquiorra.
Ulquiorra kept walking while looking at Orihime from the corner of his eye. Orihime looked back down to her feet as she walked. She felt disappointed and she didn't know why. Ulquiorra saw her disappointment from the corner of his eye and then looked straight in front of him. They arrived at Orihime's room.
" Remember what I told you. Do not repeat what happened today. Now stay in your room. I'll send someone later to give you your dinner."
"Yes, I understand. Thankyou."
Orihime walked into her room and sat down on her bed. She was looking outside her window and started to stare at the moon. Ulquiorra looked at her and left her room.
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"How is Orihime doing?" said Aizen.
"She's fine. Healthy and well behaved." Said Ulquiorra.
" She hasn't done anything unusual?"
"No. She seems normal. A little bored but normal."
"That's good. I want you to observe her more. I want to know more about her. She interests me a lot. You will be in charge of that. I think you're the only one capable of doing this. Can I trust you in doing this?"
"Yes, of course Aizen-sama. But why the big interest in that girl?"
"She has something I need. She's in my plans. That's why I want to learn more about her."
Aizen looks at Ulquiorra and smirks.
"She's very important. So please do as I say."
"Yes Aizen-sama"
Ulquiorra was walking down the hall and started to think of what Aizen asked him to do.
Why does Aizen-sama want me to observe her so much? Who is this woman? What powers does she have that interest Aizen-sama so much? Whatever it is, I have to do what he says.
Orihime was sleeping in her bed and she opened her eyes. She turned on her back and looked up at the ceiling.
I must have fallen asleep after I ate my dinner. Is it morning? I hate it that I can never tell. I need to start planning to get closer to Aizen-sama. So I can get theHougyoku stone from him. He showed me once before to show the trust he has in me. Is he trying to test me? Why did he show it to me? He knows that I now know the location of it but why would he want me to know about it? Either way I know where it is and I need to destroy it. That is my mission.
Orihime got up from her bed and walked towards the window. She was looking outside and began to feel sadness. There's no light, no warmth of the sun, just night. She turned around and noticed something on her small desk. She walked towards her desk and her eyes widen.
" A notebook and pen?" said Orihime.
"What do you think you are here for? Surely not to write 'novels'! You are alive, aren't you? Well that should be all the entertainment you need."
Orihime smiled as she grabbed her notebook.
It's from Ulquiorra-san, But why? He made it clear that he didn't want me to have a notebook. Either way, it was very nice of him. The notebook is white and so is the pen..they must reeeally love the color white. It's funny how they live in darkness and are evil but love the color white that is clean and pure. Very Ironic.
Orihime sat down on her chair by her desk and began to write. She started to write about her life. She wanted to put every single memory of hers into the notebook so she won't forget who she was. It was something she wanted to do and it made her forget for a little bit; where she really was. She felt that there was someone behind her. She turned around and saw Ulquiorra standing by the door with his arms crossed.
"Ulquiorra-san? How long were you standing there?" asked Orihime.
Ulquiorra looked at her and turned around.
"Follow me Orihime."
Orihime looked puzzled but she got up from her chair and followed Ulquiorra. They walked down the hall not saying a word. They were walking for a while and Orihime was starting to wonder where he was taking her. He opened a door and walked outside. Orihime didn't understand why he took her outside Las Noches but she followed him anyway.
"I like to go outside here sometimes when I'm tired of being in Las Noches. I like to stand here and stare at the moon, just like you." said Ulquiorra.
Orihime stayed quiet and looked at Ulquiorra.
"I always try to remember about my past. I wonder who I was before but all I remember are the battles I've been in up until now. I don't know my past, I only know what I've become." Said Ulquiorra.
Ulquiorra turns around to look at Orihime. His eyes seem different. They looked sadder than before.
"But there's no point in trying to remember since it is the past. All I have to concentrate is on the now and the future because trying to remember something that will not make you stronger will only make you weaker." Said Ulquiorra.
Orihime looked at him with sadness in her eyes. She understands him completely. She wondered why he wanted to share that with her or even wanting to talk to her. It's very unusual of Ulquiorra but she felt something different towards him.
"That's why Orihime you should stop trying to remember your past. It is only going to make you weaker. Everything and everyone from your past should be forgotten. You need to concentrate in the now and the future." said Uquiorra.
"What makes you happy, Ulquiorra-san?" asked Orihime.
Ulquiorra looked at her puzzled. He didn't know how or what to respond. Orihime stepped a little closer to him and smiled.
" Remembering my past makes me a little happy. It could be sad but it also makes me happy. I got to live something that I'm not able to live here. My past is what makes me, me." said Orihime.
Ulquiorra looked at her. In a way he understood what she was saying. It made him think more about his past. Wanting to know who he really was. Orihime stepped a little closer to Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra looked at her and wondered what she was going to do.
"I wanted to tell you thank you for the notebook. I know it was you. I really appreciate it." said Orihime with a smile.
Ulquiorra looked at her and then turned around and sat down on the white sand. He started to look at the moon.
"I just thought you could use it so you won't be so bored here. Nothing special." Said Ulquiorra.
Orihime smiled and sat next to Ulquiorra, he didn't turn to look at her; he kept looking at the moon. She looked at Ulquiorra and she put her hand on top of his hand.
" It was special to me. Thank you Ulquiorra-san." said Orihime.
Ulquiorra didn't say anything, he kept looking at the moon. Orihime looked up at the moon as she held his hand. Ulquiorra felt different, it was strange for him but he liked what he was feeling and his lips slightly moved, as if he had actually let out a small smile.
"HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE!"
Both Ulquiorra and Orihime turned around as he was standing by the door.
"What is this Ulquiorra? Getting a little friendly with the prisoner are you?" said. Grimmjow.
