-------------------

I must find you ...

I must save you ...

-------------------

Ichigo kept running in the dark corridors of Aizen's castle in Hueco Mundo.

"I … must … find … her" He managed to say while breathing heavily.

It felt like he was running for hours and hours.

"Orihime!" he tried to yell but he was out of breath because of the running.

He stopped and tried to calm down a little bit.

A few hours ago he had felt Orihime's spiritual pressure. His heart had skipped a beat when he had felt it. Then he had run like for hours to where he thought she was but her spiritual pressure had disappeared.

"God damnit" he said angry and he punched the wall. He hoped she was alright.

He would never forgive himself if something would happen to her.

"Ah … see who we have here" a voice said from behind. He knew the voice.

"Grimmjaw" Ichigo said with disgust in his voice. He turned around and pointed his zanpakutou in Grimmjaw's direction.

"Bring me to Inoue!" he yelled but when he saw Grimmjaw had two arms his eyes widened.

"Surprised?" Grimmjaw laughed and he moved his left arm with an expression of pleasure on his face, "All thanks to that friend of yours"

Ichigo shook his head.

"You forced her, didn't you?! You bastard! I'm gonna kick your sorry ass!" Ichigo yelled.

"Really? You couldn't defeat me when I had one arm … so why do you think you can defeat me when I have two arms" he laughed. Grimmjaw really was enjoying himself.

Ichigo became nervous. Grimmjaw would be a tough one to defeat … what if other Arrancars came? What if other Espada's came? But he had no other choice … Grimmjaw wasn't going to let him leave and he definitely wasn't planning to go easy on him.

"You always kept running away … you never gave me the chance to finish you off" Ichigo said.

"Planning to piss me off?" Grimmjaw said irritated, "Well … can't blame you cause you're going to die"

Ichigo laughed.

"The only one who is going to die is you, Grimmjaw" Ichigo said.

"Don't think too highly of yourself" Grimmjaw said, "Enough talking … I can't wait to see how that face of yours becomes desperate"

Ichigo held on tighter to his zanpakutou.

"Ban Kai!" he yelled and Grimmjaw smiled.

"Looks like you aren't underestimating me this time" Grimmjaw said, "But still … I would love to beat the hell out of that hollow inside of you"

"Too bad … cause I'm not planning on using it yet" Ichigo said confident, "I'll finish you off quickly"

Grimmjaw laughed.

"Don't play around … this isn't going to be over soon" Grimmjaw said, "I won't go easy on you … you aren't going to die fast. I will make you suffer"

"Try" Ichigo said daring.

"Kuku … still thinking you can win from me … too bad cause now I'm going to break that little dream of yours" Grimmjaw said and he attacked Ichigo with his cero.

Ichigo dodged the cero right in time. 'Don't get distracted' Ichigo said to himself, 'You gotta win this to save Orihime'

Ichigo swung his zanpakutou and scratched Grimmjaw's cheek.

Grimmjaw burst into laughter. He touched the scratch and licked his blood off of his hands.

"Nice try … But now it is really becoming serious" Grimmjaw said and he attacked Ichigo again with his cero. Suddenly Ichigo felt something. It was Orihime! He could feel her spiritual pressure again! The moment of joy got interrupted by the cero of Grimmjaw that hit Ichigo in his stomach. Ichigo fell on his knees.

---------------------

Cause you're on my mind ...

Cause you're in my heart ...

---------------------

"Got a little distracted?" Grimmjaw asked with a grin.

Ichigo coughed.

"You bastard" he managed to say, "Where is she?"

"Does it matter? Soon you will die and then nothing stands in our way to destroy soul society and that human world you live in" Grimmjaw said.

Ichigo stood up.

"Then I will beat the answer out of you" he said and he attacked Grimmjaw.

Grimmjaw was so surprised that Ichigo could still move that he didn't see the attack.

Ichigo's sword pierced the shoulder of his left arm.

"Damnit! Now she has to heal it again" Grimmjaw said and he drew his sword, "Let's continue this fight"

Ichigo had lost track again of Orihime's spiritual pressure.

'damnit' he said to himself.

Ichigo's stomach was hurting, but he refused to give in to the pain. He had survived much worse injuries.

Grimmjaw attacked him with his zanpakutou. Ichigo pulled his zanpakutou in front of him and their zanpakutous hit eachother.

They both pushed their zanpakutous forewards.

Ichigo slid backwards against a wall. Grimmjaw had an evil grin on his face and he pushed his zanpakutou a little more towards Ichigo's face and Ichigo tried to push it back with his.

There it was again. Orihime's spiritual pressure!

Ichigo gathered all his force and pushed Grimmjaw backwards. Grimmjaw flew backwards to the ground.

"Interesting" Grimmjaw said, "Everytime when you notice her spiritual pressure you get stonger or distracted ... she must be very important to you, huh"

Grimmjaw stood up and rubbed the dust of his clothes.

"Shall we continue?" he asked with an evil grin.

Ichigo ran to Grimmjaw and swung his sword. He hit Grimmjaw.

"Damn!" Grimmjaw yelled, "I should have dodged it ..."

Grimmjaw had a huge cut from his waist till his chest. Ichigo was breathing heavily. Grimmjaw wanted renvenge and he hit Ichigo with his cero.

Ichigo fell on the ground.

"Stop right there, Grimmjaw" a cold monotone voice said.

"You always come and ruin the fun"Grimmjaw said irritated.

"Aizen-sama had told you not to go and search for them. You disobeyed Aizen-sama's orders ..." Ulquiorra said cold, "And now I have come to stop you"

"Shouldn't you be looking after that chick?" Grimmjaw said annoyed.

"Yes, she is in her room. But you aren't where you're supposed to be. Aizen-sama ordred me to stop you ... again. You can be glad that he won't let your arm be chopped of this time" Ulquiorra said.

Grimmjaw rolled his eyes. He went to Ichigo and pierced his zanpakutou through Ichigo's stomach.

"If Aizen-sama hears this I'm sure you will lose both your arms this time" Ulquiorra said.

"Like I care ... that missy can fix them again so why would I worry. Besides you really are lucky with her if you know what I mean. I sure would want a piece of that " but Grimmjaw got interrupted.

"St-stay a-away fr-from her" Ichigo said and he spitted out some blood, "If ... If you dare to ... to touch her ... I'll"

"You'll do what? You're going to die just like I said so stop acting like you're immortal" Grimmjow said and he walked to Ulquiorra.

"Let's go" Grimmjaw said and they left. Not soon after they had left Ichigo lost consiousness.

-------------------------

Please, let me save you ...

Please, let me find you ...

I won't fail ...

I can't fail ...

------------------------

Ichigo tried to open his eyes.

"Orihime" he whispered, "I'm so sorry"

Suddenly a face appeared in front of him. It was Orihime. She looked shocked. Her face looked pale and wet from crying.

"Ku ... Kurosaki-kun" she said soft and she touched his cheek, "Ichigo"

Ichigo smiled. Orihime had never said his name. Was this a dream?

"You fool" she cried, "Why did you come?"

Ichigo tried to say something but Orihime put her fingers on his lips.

"Don't speak" she said and she started to heal him.

Ichigo couldn't keep his eyes off of Orihime.

Why was she crying? Wasn't she supposed to be happy to see him? Why did she ask why he had come? Wasn't it clear that he had come to recue her? Or did she meant why they had come to rescue her?

When Orihime had dealed him she removed the tears with her white robe.

"What are you wearing?" Ichigo asked surprised.

"Oh eh ... they gave it to me" Orihime sniffled.

"Why are you crying?" Ichigo asked and he touched her cheek.

Orihime was surprised of Ichigo's action.

"Why did you come to rescue me?" she asked.

"Usually people don't asnwer a question with a question" Ichigo said and he smiled softly, "But do I really need to answer why we came to rescue you? Why would you think we would leave you?"

"You should have stayed home" she said and she looked a little desperate.

"Speaking of home ... let's go home Inoue" Ichigo said and he smiled softly.

"This is my home now ..." Inoue said and a tear rolled off of her cheek. Ichigo looked shocked.

"Did Aizen brainwash you?" he said unbelievable, "What about Tatsuki? And Chad, Ishida, Rukia, Renji, ...? What about me?"

A silence followed but got interrupted by Orihime's sniffling.

Ichigo looked into her eyes and Orihime looked away.

"Go back to sleep, Kurosaki-kun" Orihime said gentle, "your strenght hasn't fully recovered yet"

"Are you going to leave again?" Ichigo asked not knowing it was a dream or reality ... and if it was reality he just couldn't believe it that Orihime was here willingly. He was sure they had forced her ... there was no other possibility!

"Just rest" Orihime said and she touched Ichigo's cheek and she tried to smile.

Ichigo looked like he was still deciding which he should too, but when he felt Orihime's hand on his cheek he closed his eyes and soon he fell asleep.

Orihime sniffled and wiped away her tears. She needed to go back before they noticed she was away.

Orihime stood up and with one last glance to Ichigo she dissapeared in one of the many dark corridors of Aizen's castle in Hueco Mundo.
