Adventure #2
Dog fights
The impossible had finally happened. Grimmjow had seen the impossible…something that shouldn't exist but did. But then again, he is an Espada, so impossible happened along time ago when the world was suddenly full of Shinigami and other beings of the dead.
He had seen it briefly and then he had gotten a full view of it, for only a few seconds. A great black rectangle! Grimmjow had gaped at it for a moment and then all the birds fluttered down to stare at it and Grimmjow felt the oddest urge to touch it. It drew him, but he did not go. Instead he did something sensible. He ran off, fearing that the world had finally come to an end and that the sky was about to turn black. He had never given dying much though, but he did not know what it would be like to actually die. He had someone to live for now and was not quite in a hurry to die yet, thank you very much.
Ulquiorra, Kyoshiro, Weed and Blue were in the middle of lunch at a pizza parlor when the door flew open and Grimmjow burst in, yelling.
Ulquiorra's eyes went from his slice of pizza to Grimmjow and was about to speak when Grimmjow hurried over. "The world! What is happening to it? The sky is going to turn black! It's over, the end of civilization… oh shit! We're all going to die!" Weed gave a shriek and dove under the table. Kyoshiro and Blue and Ulquiorra merely stared at the panicked blue haired Espada. "What's going on?" Blue asked, cocking her head. Ulquiorra blinked at Grimmjow. "It's…I've seen it! It's…a thing!" Grimmjow said, clearly fighting for the right word.
"Oh how terrifying." Kyoshiro said, smirking. Normally it was Grimmjow's turn to say that, so their roles were reversed. "You, shut up!" Grimmjow snapped, throwing Kyoshiro an angered look. "What did you see?" Ulquiorra asked him, taking a bite of his pizza. Grimmjow stared. "I don't even know what the hell it was! And why are sitting on your ass, eating pizza, when the world could come crashing too an end at any fucking moment?" Grimmjow snarled, Ulquiorra stared, bored-looking, and said. "How about we figure out what it was that you saw before we go diving under tables?" he said, looking down at Weed's tail, which was emerging from under the table cloth hanging from the table. "Good idea." Kyoshiro said, grabbing Weed's tail and pulling him out from underneath the table. Weed grinned sheepishly and said. "Okay…"
Grimmjow just nodded, pacing violently. Blue snapped her fingers in front of his face and Grimmjow glared at her. "Well, how about you show us what you saw?"
They reached the park, by the lake. Grimmjow looked around a bit and sighed. "I thought as much. Damn!"
Kyoshiro grinned. "What are you imagining things, Grimmy-tan?"
Grimmjow aimed a hard kick at him, looking very pissed off. "What exactly did you see anyway?" Weed asked curiously, tilting his head. "I told you!" Grimmjow half yelled. "A black rectangle!"
Ulquiorra stared at him. Grimmjow glared. "What, you don't believe me?" Grimmjow asked, exasperated. Ulquiorra had his chin in his hand; a thoughtful look came into his emerald eyes. "I believe you. It's impossible not to, seeing how dramatic you were back at the pizza place."
"Thank you!" Grimmjow said, relieved that at least one person didn't think he was hallucinating. Blue looked over. "It seems deserted here, Grimmjow." Then she added hastily. "It's not that I think your lying! I'm just stating a fact."
The blue haired Espada sighed heavily and put his hands in his pockets. "Ah fuck it."
Weed was sniffing by the bushes. Kyoshiro was looking by the lake. Ulquiorra was staring at the sky thoughtfully and Blue was standing near Grimmjow. Kyoshiro sighed and sat down near the lake and took to staring at the reflection of the moon. A shadow fell upon him. He blinked. Weed looked at Grimmjow and said, in an attempt to cheer him up. "Don't worry! I'm sure you're…." He struggled for the right word. "Sane?" Grimmjow asked bitterly.
"Yeah!" Weed said his tail wagging. "I highly doubt that what you saw was a hallucination or a trick of your mind." Ulquiorra said thoughtfully. "I think that what you saw was a thing called…"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!"
All four of them jumped and turned around. "What the…?" Blue gasped. Weed gaped. Ulquiorra stared. Grimmjow said. "HEY! That's it!"
Kyoshiro was running towards them, his eyes wide and terrified. "What the hell is it?" Kyoshiro yelled, reaching them and ducking behind Blue.
"A monolith…" Ulquiorra whispered, finishing his previous sentence. Kyoshiro stared at him. "Heh n-no way! It's-it's…"
"A huge immovable block of stone." Grimmjow said, glaring at Kyoshiro. "Okay, okay! I'm sorry for doubting you!" Kyoshiro said, looking from Grimmjow to the monolith standing beside the lake. It cast a shadow across the water, the moonlight shone down upon it.
Hesitantly, Weed approached it. "Oi! Don't go near that!" Kyoshiro exclaimed. "It isn't off this earth!"
"Then again, neither are Grimmjow and Ulquiorra, really." Blue said. "I mean when you think about Shinigami and Espada shouldn't really exist." Grimmjow and Ulquiorra looked at her. Blue stepped forward slowly. "It doesn't have legs or weapons guys, c'mon." she said in an almost exasperated tone. Grimmjow, Ulquiorra and Kyoshiro followed Weed and Blue towards it. Now they stood directly in front of it, right in front of the lake.
Kyoshiro was the last to approach it, very slowly. Ulquiorra reached out a hand, Grimmjow grabbed his pale wrist. "Dude!" Ulquiorra raised his other hand and placed it on the smooth surface of the rectangle. Nothing happened. "What on earth is it doing here?" Blue whispered. Ulquiorra shook his head slowly. "I don't like this…" Kyoshiro said, backing away. Weed however stared at the monolith in wonder. "It's interesting. It has an interesting aura about it." Weed walked over and Kyoshiro said, hurriedly. "Weedy! What the hell are you doing?"
"I just want to touch it." Weed said, looking around at Kyoshiro. Kyoshiro shook his head, breathing in deeply. "No…dude, no…!"
Then, slowly, Weed raised his paw and touched the smooth surface of the monolith. "See, Kyoshiro!" Weed said happily. "Nothing happened!"
"What do we do with it?" Grimmjow growled, glaring at the monolith. "How did it get here?"
"Aliens." Kyoshiro said. Grimmjow snorted. "Actually, who says aliens don't exist. This thing shouldn't even be here anyway." Ulquiorra murmured. "Maybe it'll go away…" Grimmjow said. "I doubt it." Blue said. "It has come here for a reason….but why?"
"Let me touch it…" Kyoshiro murmured, walking forward. "Hey, I don't think that's a good idea!" Blue said suddenly, looking very nervous. "Ah, what's the worst that could happen?" Kyoshiro said carelessly. And he touched it. A black hole appeared in the ground right under their feet. They fell right into it, screaming and yelling in terror. The monolith vanished as they fell, images suddenly appeared everywhere. Flashes of different time periods around the world appeared before them, they saw a volcano erupting, land forming, they saw soldiers marching everywhere, battlefields, they saw Adolf Hitler giving a speech, his voice was clearly audible, the Japanese were also giving a speech, and then suddenly they saw ground below them. They all smashed onto the ground with loud thuds and tumbled everywhere.
Ulquiorra was clutching his ribs a little ways away form Grimmjow, Blue was lying face down on the ground, Grimmjow was lying with his legs over his head and Kyoshiro had fallen on top of Weed. Grimmjow pushed himself up, breathing hard and Ulquiorra and the others did the same. "And to think, the guy who sent us here landed on something soft!" Grimmjow snarled, aiming a kick at Kyoshiro, who missed. Weed was in agony a little to Grimmjow's left and Ulquiorra was helping Blue to her feet. "Where the hell are we?" Grimmjow asked loudly. Blue shook her head. "No idea…"
Ulquiorra walked over to Grimmjow and Weed hobbled over to stand next to Grimmjow's feet. "Kyoshiro." Ulquiorra growled, turning on him. "Dude! It wasn't me! The monolith was gonna do that anyway!"
"No it wasn't!" Grimmjow and Ulquiorra snapped at him. "Never do that again!" Ulquiorra said, smacking Kyoshiro upside the head. "Now we don't know where we are, or how to get back home." Ulquiorra said, his eyes narrowing. Blue and Grimmjow looked at him. "What do you mean 'back home?" Grimmjow asked him. "Well," Blue said quickly. "Obviously we are not in the present."
Grimmjow's jaw fell open.
"No…" he whispered. "You mean we've…"
Ulquiorra nodded. "We've gone back in time."
Weed gasped and looked around wildly. "Are you serious? We've gone back in time! But to what time and where?"
And then Ulquiorra spoke somewhere behind Grimmjow. "Germany."
"How'd you figure that out?" Grimmjow asked, turning around. "Oh shit." Men were running towards them, men dressed in the uniforms worn by German soldiers. "German soldiers..." Blue murmured. "Nazis!" Kyoshiro gasped. "If we're caught, we'll be killed!"
"Something tells me they aren't Nazis, but mere German soldiers…" Ulquiorra said. Grimmjow grabbed him by the shoulders. "Who the fuck cares?" he bellowed and all five of them raced away.
Then a bullet was fired at the dirt in front of Grimmjow and they all looked up. More German soldiers were coming from the front. "Shit! We're cornered!" Grimmjow gasped, freezing on the spot. The Germans closed in around the five friends, blocking their path. They began murmuring amongst themselves, probably deciding what to do with them, Grimmjow thought. "G-guys….what do we do?" Weed gasped, shaking behind Blue's legs. Kyoshiro swallowed hard and Ulquiorra said. "Hope that they will decide we're worthless and leave…but that is very unlikely. We look very suspicious."
"Crap!" Weed gasped, putting his paws over his eyes.
And then Kyoshiro said. "I've studied German…perhaps I can let us off the hook." Grimmjow nodded fervently. "Get your ass up there, now!" and he shoved Kyoshiro towards the Germans. Weed glared at him and said. "Why don't we all go up front?"
"Rather him than me." Grimmjow replied, shrugging. Weed glared harder at him. 'Okay, why don't you go and get your ass handed to you by angry German soldiers?"
Weed didn't move. Grimmjow smirked. "Thought so."
Ulquiorra stepped up to Kyoshiro's side. Grimmjow looked incredibly nervous and slowly stepped after him, Blue and Weed followed. Kyoshiro looked at them appreciatively.
He spoke German to them. Very rusty German. Ulquiorra's face fell into a deeper frown and Grimmjow and Blue looked at one another. Weed's ears flattened.
The Germans laughed and Kyoshiro joined in nervously. And then the leader of the squad starting yelling. Grimmjow and Blue gasped and Ulquiorra's eyes widened and Weed's jaw dropped. Kyoshiro backed away hastily. "What did you say to them?"
Ulquiorra asked in a–would-be-calm voice. "I…I just told them how wonderful they looked!" Kyoshiro gasped, his voice shaking with fear. "In their little uniforms and their caps….and their nice pretty machine guns!" Ulquiorra face palmed and Grimmjow was about to wring Kyoshiro's neck when something worse happened.
The apparent leader of the squad made violent hand gestures and, yelling in German all the while, pointed to his soldiers and they immediately made to grab hold of Grimmjow and his group. None of them understood a word the squad leader said, but they all got the message.
They were in a deep shit.
The situation was bad. Very, very, bad! They were currently walking through the German's camp, or that's what it sounded like. Grimmjow and his friends had been blind-folded and were being escorted by the Germans. The blind folds were removed and they found themselves standing in the middle of the German base. They were all seated on a bench with two armed German's flanking them while the leader of the squad went off to do something. Had it not been for the fact that his arms were bound and the place was locked up tight as a screw, Grimmjow would have been running as if he were being shot at. The others obviously felt the same because Blue was attempting to break the ropes that bound her hands. Kyoshiro's hands were bound as well; if he had been in his dog form when speaking to the Germans he would have had his paws bound like Weed's. Speaking of Weed, the pup had been dragged in the dirt by the Germans, his paws bound and his muzzle tied shut. So perhaps it was a good thing Kyoshiro had been in his human form.
Ulquiorra was seated in between Blue and Grimmjow, his eyes closed, probably trying to think of a way out of their situation. Grimmjow sighed and said. "You okay?" Ulquiorra shook his head. "None of us are. Dammit…" he mumbled the last word as he again attempted to break the ropes. Grimmjow attempted to break his as well but Ulquiorra nudged him in the shoulder. "What are you going to do after you break the ropes, Grimmjow? If you run you'll be shot down. But it might not make a difference. We're probably all going to be shot." Grimmjow shuddered. "This fucking sucks!" he glared at Kyoshiro. "It's all his fault!"
The white haired boy glared at Grimmjow. "No…yes…it is my fault. Guy's look…" Kyoshiro's bound hands came undone and Grimmjow gasped. "I'll cause a distraction and you guys can get away."
"Thanks," Blue said. "But I'd rather die than abandon one of you."
Kyoshiro blushed and looked at the ground. Weed nodded, his eyes wide, but unable to speak because of his bound muzzle. "Anyway," Ulquiorra said. "How would we get out of here? Running around would not do us any good…"
And then suddenly Ulquiorra gasped and looked up, Grimmjow turned to look at him, thinking that Ulquiorra's clever brain might just have come up with a plan. "What? Don't tell me…you've got an idea for our freedom!" Ulquiorra looked at him and said. "Sorry, Grimmjow."
"Fuck!" Grimmjow spat, glaring into his lap.
"Look, at that man over there." Ulquiorra whispered excitedly, jerking his head over to the left. A German soldier stood there. "Yeah, so what?" Grimmjow spat, rubbing his ropes against the wall. "That's…that's Adolf Hitler." And Grimmjow looked up. "Really?" Blue said, looking over at him. Her face turned into one of disgust. "You're right. God, he was such a bastard."
Weed began to growl, his eyes narrowing. Kyoshiro glared at Hitler who stood mere feet from them. "Hang on, isn't he leader?" Grimmjow asked Ulquiorra. The pale man shook his head. "No. We've gone back to 1914."
Grimmjow sighed. "Yeah?"
Ulquiorra stared at him. "He was a mere soldier back then. A nobody. He became ruler sometime before world war II."
"Hey…he's a nobody right?" Kyoshiro said suddenly, a gleam in his eyes. "Right now, yes." Ulquiorra responded.
"So…if I were to grab the gun next to the bench and shoot him, would it matter?" Kyoshiro asked, grinning. Every one of his friends stared at him. "Don't temp me." Blue said, struggling harder against her bonds. Grimmjow stared. "Don't do it." He said simply. Blue looked at him. "Why not, Grimmjow?" she asked him. "He was a terrible person, it won't matter if we kill him now—!"
"Yeah it will. How is Kyoshiro, the only one who can use his hands by the way, going to get over to the guns over there without being shot? How are we going to be able to protect him if we are bound? And, anyway, the damage is still done! Back in the present the damage is still done, even if no one ever will remember him, the damage will still have been done!" Grimmjow protested.
"He has a point." Ulquiorra said.
"Mmm mot mth mm!" Weed tired to say "it's not worth it" but the gag made it impossible.
"And anyway, he dies later on." Grimmjow said.
"Yeah, after doing a lot of damage!" Kyoshiro spat.
"But what's the point of shooting him, and possibly failing, if he shoots himself later on?" Grimmjow asked.
"Let's shoot him!" Kyoshiro said.
"What's the point?" Grimmjow asked.
"It would save the world a lot of bother!" Kyoshiro said.
And then suddenly, before they could decide the two German soldiers motioned for them to get up. They all stood and began to walk slowly towards their destination. Weed was still attempting to get the rope out of his mouth and Grimmjow was grumbled and attempting to break his ropes but every time he moved something was rammed into his spine and he winced.
They were lead into a grassy field and stood there alone, just them and the Germans. "Hey…" Kyoshiro murmured hopefully. "They…I think they're letting us go…!"
Grimmjow looked around as Ulquiorra sighed. "No they aren't."
"Yippee!" Kyoshiro cried happily.
"Yes! We're going to live!" Grimmjow yelled, grinning. And then five guns were pointed at them.
All of them gasped. "I guess not…" Blue whispered. Grimmjow and Kyoshiro looked at each other. "In the next life…I am going to murder you, Kyoshiro." Grimmjow snarled, kicking the dirt. "Well…I for one am not going to be shot down!"
"Führen Sie sie durch." said the captain of the patrol.
"Hey…" Ulquiorra whispered. "Where is Weed?"
The answer came immediately, in more ways than one.
The German's caps were pulled down over their eyes one by one. A bullet was fired and it whizzed between Grimmjow and Ulquiorra. They both ran forward and rammed the Germans and Blue and Kyoshiro did the same.
"Thanks a lot Weed!" Grimmjow said, punching a German. "I almost got shot!" he said, pointing to his side. Weed growled and said. "Be lucky that you didn't actually get shot!" and he bit their ropes one by one and the five friends ran off towards the trees.
The patrol captain sat up and snarled. "Bekommen Sie sie! Bekommen Sie sie, lassen Sie sie nicht flüchten! Ich will ihre Köpfe!"
Grimmjow and the others raced through the trees so fast they were almost blurs as they ran past trees. Kyoshiro was attempting to catch up with Grimmjow, who was in the lead, when suddenly he smashed head first into a tree. Blue turned around and ran back for him, Weed followed.
Grimmjow and Ulquiorra ran from the trees and stopped, Ulquiorra grabbed Grimmjow by the sleeve and dragged him behind a tree and said. "Watch it, there could be Germans." The two peered out from behind a tree and listened and watched. Nothing could be seen or heard and the two crept out of the trees. Grimmjow saw something and turned his head, his eyes widened. A plane was standing tall and proud looking in the grass, and now a plan was forming in Grimmjow's head. Ulquiorra was staring ahead. "Grimmjow…I confess I can't see a—"
And then Grimmjow tapped him on the shoulder, both noticed the plane and Ulquiorra looked at Grimmjow. The man beside him had a large grin forming on his face. "Oh no." Ulquiorra said.
"Grimmjow, this is risky. You don't even know how to fly a plane! And for another thing, if we keep running we could just…" and then they heard yells. "Okay, never mind." Ulquiorra said calmly, walking towards the plane. Grimmjow jumped into it and stared at the odd set of controls before. Ulquiorra was still on the ground. Grimmjow stared at him and then smirked and held out his hand. "Need help, Ulqui-chan?" Ulquiorra smacked his hand and Grimmjow winced.
Grimmjow pulled him into the backseat and stared at the controls again and said. "Okay…let's see…does this light switch do anything?" and he flicked it upwards. The roar of the engine startled them both slightly and Grimmjow grinned and strapped some goggles onto his eyes and said. "Excellent!"
Ulquiorra closed his eyes and tried to resist the urge to bolt form the plane. He really could not trust Grimmjow with this. And then his eyes snapped open. "Grimmjow! Kyoshiro and Blue…Weed! They'll be left behind!"
"Oops…" Grimmjow said. And then the Germans appeared and ran towards the plane. "Get us up!" Ulquiorra ordered. "I'm trying, I'm trying…" and Grimmjow pressed a button, the plane began spinning rapidly. "Whoa!" Grimmjow yelled, pressing another button, the plane began spinning in the opposite direction. Grimmjow cursed and pressed another button. The plane moved forward very fast and then Ulquiorra gasped, they were heading for a set of trees! He instinctively covered his eyes. Then came the sensation of going upwards and Ulquiorra opened his eyes. They were flying! And he breathed a sigh of relief.
The German patrol leader snarled and said. "Scheißen Sie!"
Meanwhile in the trees, Kyoshiro, Weed and Blue were hiding behind a tree, when the Germans had come running they had had no choice but to hide. Blue sighed and closed her eyes before slowly moving through the trees. The other two followed her. "I hope Grimmjow and Ulquiorra are alright…" Blue murmured. Weed nodded. They heard an engine and looked up. A plane was flying across the sky. "That's a Bi-Plane." Kyoshiro whispered. "And I have a feeling I know whose inside it." Blue growled, looking annoyed. "They better not have left us here alone!"
Weed gasped and Kyoshiro cursed.
"C'mon," Blue said, and she began heading back towards the campsite. " Blue what the hell?" Kyoshiro yelled. "We just went to the bother of escaping there!"
"I know, Kyoshiro!" Blue called over her shoulder. "I just want to go down to the airport; I need to find a plane."
"Oh," Kyoshiro said. "Okay…wait a minute!" and he ran off after her, he ran out in front of her and said. "Blue, we can't just waltz up into the camp and steal a plane!"
And then Weed spoke up. "Only Germans can do that!"
Blue grinned and said. "I know, Weed…"
And she walked right past him. Kyoshiro swallowed and followed her. Weed looked nervously after them and bounded along behind them. They almost ran into the Germans, but hid in the trees, the Germans were heading towards the airport. Blue grabbed a stone and threw it.
The stone hit a German right in the back of the neck, and he fell to the ground. A German turned around and stared at the body. "Was zum Teufel?"
Kyoshiro stared at Blue and she said. "Grab him."
"What?"
"Do it!"
"He, Kerle, fiel Nicky gerade!" the German said, sounding distressed. Kyoshiro pounced on him. The other three turned and Weed knocked into a man's legs, knocking him over. The Patrol captain walked ahead still. "Here," Kyoshiro said, picking up a rock and swinging it around. "Because I don't like him!" and he threw the rock right into the back of the captain's head, he didn't even wince, instead he turned around and bellowed.
"Was die Scheißhölle? Sie verdammen Bengel! Ich werde Sie töten!"
"Oops…!" Kyoshiro whispered. Blue rolled her eyes. "I'll take care of him!" Weed said and he ran into the trees as the captain approached. Weed ran out of the trees and knocked into the side of his head. The other two Germans ran at Weed but Blue and Kyoshiro tackled them.
"Alright…so…" Kyoshiro panted. "What's your plan…?"
Meanwhile.
Grimmjow was soaring through the air very fast, Ulquiorra clinging to the backseat. Grimmjow grinned and said. "This is fucking cool!" he yelled. Ulquiorra sighed and yelled. "What about the others?"
"They'll find a way out, knowing Blue she's fine!" Grimmjow called.
Grimmjow meanwhile was having difficulties; he was pondering which button to press. He looked at a red button and then at a green one and did moved his finger from one to the other, and then he shrugged and reached down and grabbed the joystick. They hurtled towards the ground at top speed.
Grimmjow's blue eyes widened. "Shit…shit, shit, shit, shit, shit! Shit!Shit!Shit!Shit!Shit!Shit!Shit!Shit! Shit, shit!" he yelled as the plane hurtled towards the ground. "Grimmjow!" Ulquiorra yelled over the wind. "Move aside!" Grimmjow didn't hear him. Ulquiorra made to grab the stick and Grimmjow suddenly yelled. "HANG ON, I GOT IT!" And he pulled the joystick back up, the plane skimmed the ground and they only narrowly avoided a collision with the earth. Ulquiorra smacked the back of Grimmjow's head. "Grimmjow! When you are driving something you've never driven before, you do not—!"
"Flying."
"What?"
"When you are 'flying' somethin—"
"Sorry, my mistake… The first thing you do not do is—"
"Press random buttons." Grimmjow said, cutting him off. "Yeah, yeah, yeah…"
Ulquiorra leaned back in his seat and crossed his arms over his chest and sighed. If he survived this he was going to murder Grimmjow.
And then the roaring of another motor was heard. Grimmjow looked over his shoulder and so did Ulquiorra. It was a Fokker , flying through the air towards them. Grimmjow grinned upon spotting the driver. "Yo, Blue—!" and then he screamed. "Weed?"
Weed grinned and waved from where he was piloting the plane. "Hi, Grimmjow!" he mouthed. Grimmjow saw Blue knock him out of the seat and sit back down. "Grimmjow, they are wearing German uniforms." Ulquiorra pointed out. Grimmjow stared hard and let out a bark of laughter. "Wow!" he put his elbow on the dashboard. "True that, wish I had one now! Ha!"
And then they suddenly began flying downward.
Blue watched from where she sat and gasped. "What the hell? Are they falling?"
And sure enough, the plane ahead of them fell right out of the sky. "HOLY SHIT!" Kyoshiro screamed, his paws gripping his face. Weed gasped and ran forward, standing in Blue's lap. "Grimmjow, Ulquiorra!" he called out, horrified.
The two in the plane meanwhile were slightly panicked. Grimmjow reached down and pressed the 'light switch' and the plane was flying smoothly towards the ground. The engine was slightly louder this time though. Grimmjow stared and said. "That's…oh my fucking god!"
Ulquiorra looked around and gasped. The plane was only inches from the ground and they were flying towards a farm house! Grimmjow was then pulled from the plane, which swerved before crashing into the barn, rather than the house. Grimmjow smashed to the floor and he winced in pain. Ulquiorra was underneath him, his arms around Grimmjow's chest. Grimmjow heard him sigh in relief. "Thanks for that I guess…" Grimmjow panted, slightly disappointed from the loss of his plane.
He felt Ulquiorra nod and the two staggered to their feet. Ulquiorra dusted his uniform and said. "What now?"
And Grimmjow shrugged. "Blue and the other two noticed our crash; they'll come and get us…" Ulquiorra frowned and said. "Fokker's are not very big seating wise…we won't all fit."
Grimmjow kicked the ground and spat. "Just fucking great!" and then there was a distant roar and they looked up. Planes of different varieties flew across the sky. "Germans…and they are chasing Blue." Ulquiorra murmured. "We're stuck."
Grimmjow sighed and kicked the ground again. "Sorry, Ulquiorra."
Ulquiorra looked over. "What for…? Oh, for crashing the plane and landing us here. It's…" but Ulquiorra couldn't say 'It's alright" because really, it wasn't.
"No, if I hadn't noticed that stupid monolith, this wouldn't have freaking happened! Now we're stuck in Germany and we're being hunted down by the crazy Germans!" Grimmjow sat down on a stack of hay and put his face in his hands, ignoring the flaming barn some distance behind them. "How could you not have noticed the monolith?" Ulquiorra reasoned, walking over and standing in front of him. "None of us knew this was going to happen…" Grimmjow continued to not look at him and Ulquiorra sighed and placed a hand on his shoulder. "We'll find a way out…maybe…"
Grimmjow let out a growl and said his voice slightly muffled. "I don't know how this situation could get any worse!"
Then bullets were fired from above. Ulquiorra knocked Grimmjow behind the hay stack and saw a Fokker flying towards the ground. It landed almost near the barn and the pilot ran out, a bloodthirsty grin on his face and Ulquiorra's frown lifted. Grimmjow sat up and snarled. "Alright, buddy, come and get it!"
And then he was grabbed by the arm and dragged towards the plane. The German pilot ran right by them and tripped on the haystack and fell on the ground. "A Fokker E.I." Ulquiorra murmured, examining the machine gun and the rather handsome design. Grimmjow climbed into the pilot's seat and Ulquiorra stared. "Get in." Grimmjow said. "No room." Ulquiorra explained. Grimmjow sighed and then did something weird, he climbed out.
"Get in. It's my fault we're here so…"
And then bullets hit the ground next to them. Ulquiorra sighed and then he climbed into the pilot's seat. The German pilot ran towards them very fast, his machine gun at the ready. Then Grimmjow glanced once at Ulquiorra and climbed right in the plane and sat in front of him, so that Ulquiorra was literally squished behind him.
The plane took to the skies and the German pilot cursed and kicked a pebble into the flaming barn. The entire barn fell over.
Ahead of Grimmjow and Ulquiorra, Blue and her two friends were in a tight spot. The German pilots were surrounding them, trapping them. "Damn!" Blue cursed, she pointed the machine gun at several and fired, one was hit in the tail and he spiraled downward. "We're killing people!" Weed exclaimed, closing his eyes. "Right now I don't have much of a choice!" Blue called, firing again. And then the plane on their left was shot down and Blue turned. "It's Grimmjow! And Ulquiorra!" she added, seeing the smaller man crushed into the back seat.
Grimmjow was laughing his head off in the back seat. "C'mon!" he roared. "I'm here, come and get me!" he fired at some more planes and they were shot down. And then a pilot fired at Grimmjow, barely missing him, Grimmjow spiraled his plane down into the clouds.
Blue and the two other dogs gasped. "He was hit!" Weed gasped.
"No he wasn't!" Kyoshiro argued. Blue scanned the clouds. She saw no one.
Meanwhile, below them, Grimmjow was still flying towards the ground, he swerved left and then fly back up towards the battle above them, flashes of orange explosions could be seen the clouds.
Then Grimmjow fired at the belly of a plane. The plane blew up and Grimmjow swerved to avoid the collision and shot right into the air, up above the other planes. Then Grimmjow flew back down towards them, firing and laughing his head off. Ulquiorra watched him, somewhat amazed and frightened for his life. The planes began to swerve and then they fired back. Grimmjow dodged and fired back at his attacker.
Weed and Blue watched, amazed. "Wow…" Weed said, putting his paw on the dashboard. Blue yelled as her plane shot forward and Weed gasped. The plane flew forward and Blue yelled. "Weed! What have you done?" she screamed as they flew right towards Grimmjow's plane in a collision course. Blue saw Ulquiorra yell at Grimmjow, Grimmjow dove underneath them and vanished. Weed looked down at the dashboard and began slamming his paws down on buttons. "Sorry, sorry, sorry!" he screamed, pressing buttons, their plane shot into the air and then swerved right into some clouds.
Weed was in a state of shock and then he pressed a button, the plane flew towards the ground. They swerved between Grimmjow's plane again and they had a glimpse of the evil grin on Grimmjow's face.
"Weed!" Kyoshiro yelled, squished under the seat. "Stop it!"
Weed suddenly saw a bullet fly past them; another Fokker appeared on the right and began firing at them. Weed's eyes narrowed. "Alright…" the pup whispered. "You are asking for it!"
And he turned the machine gun with his nose and Blue reached over and pulled the trigger. The plane dodged and then moved back into their direction, they were now on a collision course. "Weed, do something!" Blue bellowed, reaching around him to press a button, they went into a dive and the Fokker collided right into another plane, both going in the same direction.
Blue and Weed and Kyoshiro flew towards the ground, the explosion right above their heads reflecting off their plane and then Weed turned, two planes were closing in on them from both directions. Blue and Kyoshiro were screaming and so was Weed but then his eyes narrowed, he turned the gun on the right plane and he took the trigger between his teeth and pulled, it hurt a lot!
The plane was hit in the engine and the plane fell towards the ground.
Weed turned the plane right and he flew in that direction, heading back up towards the battle above. He did the same thing Grimmjow did and fired at the belly of a plane. The plane blew up, but eh didn't swerve! Their plane flew through the fire and shot upward and nearly smashed into another plane. Blue screamed and said. "Weed, you are going to kill us!"
Weed screamed in terror as Grimmjow's plane appeared right in front of them, they almost collided and Grimmjow screamed, waving his fist. "Watch it, you dickhead!"
And then the planes formed a circle, surrounding the two 'enemy' planes. Grimmjow's eyes narrowed and he cursed. "Shit!"
The Germans all moved in at the same time.
Weed was panicking and he fired at the plane on the right. The plane blew up and, because of the none-existence distance between them; the plane next to it did too! Grimmjow's eyes widened as one by one, the German planes blew up one explosion after another until there was a fiery smoke screen around them.
"Wow…" he whispered eyes wide as dinner plates.
And then Ulquiorra gasped. "Grimmjow, watch it!" A falling plane flew towards them. Grimmjow gasped and swerved right next to a plane which exploded as it was struck by a bullet from Weed. Grimmjow's plane was caught in the explosion.
Weed and the other two screamed in terror.
Grimmjow's Fokker had caught fire at the tail. Grimmjow's eyes widened and he swallowed as more planes exploded because of their too-closeness. "Ulquiorra…we're going down!" Grimmjow yelled as his plane began to lose flight. Grimmjow gulped and reached under his seat and pulled out a parachute and swallowed hard as he strapped it on. "Grab on to me!" he ordered and Ulquiorra seized him in a grip so tight Grimmjow almost couldn't breathe. And he leapt over the edge of the plane just as a shower of bullets hit his plane, blowing it clean out of the sky. "YEEHAAW!"
The two fell towards the ground the wind deafening in their ears.
Grimmjow waited and then he pulled the chute, Ulquiorra almost fell because of the sudden jerk, Grimmjow's arms tightened around him. "Hang in there!" he yelled.
Blue looked over. "Hey, Weed your not that bad…" she murmured. "OH MY GOD!" she screamed. A plane flew at them; he was going to ram them! "There's no other option…!" Blue yelled and she reached under her seat and grabbed her parachute and grabbed her two friends and leapt from the plane.
Kyoshiro and Weed screamed bloody murder as they fell, Blue's arms around them, the parachute had not opened! Blue dropped Weed, but since they were falling so fast he flew a few inches up and Kyoshiro took him by the scruff of his neck. Blue slipped one arm in and pulled the chute. A sudden jerk and then pain in her arm, she dropped Kyoshiro and Weed they both screamed and latched onto her legs.
The pilots began firing. "Good god we are falling and still they fire!" Blue yelled. Kyoshiro yelled something at the Germans. And then suddenly a plane was struck down. Blue gasped and looked around, a Sopwith Pup flew towards them on the breeze, firing at the Germans.
Blue gasped and said. "Guy's were saved!"
"Oh, no we're not! We're dressed like Germans!" Kyoshiro screamed.
Blue looked to the left, several feet below them she could see Grimmjow and Ulquiorra falling towards the ground. A Sopwith Camel spiraled down to meet them, Blue waved at him and yelled. "Help us! We are not Germans!"
The British pilot cocked an eyebrow and then he saw how scared she looked and pulled towards them. He reached out and pulled her and her two others into the plane, she had to sit on his lap though and Kyoshiro and Weed had to sit on the floor.
Grimmjow was watching the proceedings from below along with Ulquiorra. "Well, Ulquiorra, looks like we're saved." And then several bullets hit their parachute. Grimmjow and Ulquiorra looked at each other. "Oh no!" Grimmjow gasped and then they fell towards the earth at an alarming rate, clutching each other.
The German pilot clapped himself and the back. "Oh ja, oh ja! Ich bekam jene Bastarde!" he said happily and then he was blown up by a Sopwith Pup.
Grimmjow and Ulquiorra still fell and then suddenly Grimmjow was grabbed by the leg and pulled towards a plane. A British pilot had grabbed his leg, he pulled them towards his plane. They flew towards the ground and the Grimmjow heard his name being called. He looked around; Blue was sitting in the lap of a handsome British pilot waving at him. Grimmjow waved back. Then there was a series of bangs. Grimmjow turned and gasped. It was the German patrol captain, a bloodthirsty grin on his face as he fired at both the planes, two others behind him.
"Damn!" the pilot yelled. "At this rate…we'll be struck down!
Then Grimmjow's eyes narrowed. "Not today…" he hissed and then he stood up and ran up the plane and lunged at the patrol captain who screamed.
"Grimmjow!" Ulquiorra yelled. "Bloody fool!" the pilot bellowed. And then Ulquiorra gasped and the pilot yelled in horror as the German captain's plane smashed right into the ground below. "No!" Ulquiorra cried out. Blue and the other two dogs yelled out as well and the planes flew towards the ground, the German planes turned and flew in the opposite direction, heading back to base.
They landed on the ground and the plane hadn't even stopped yet when Ulquiorra jumped onto the ground. Blue and Kyoshiro and Weed climbed out as well and hurried to the wreckage. The plane was on fire.
"Holy shit…" Kyoshiro hissed. Blue had her hands over her mouth. Weed staggered towards Ulquiorra and looked at the wreckage. "Why did he do that…?" Weed murmured. Ulquiorra shook his head and Weed buried his face in Ulquiorra's leg, sniffing.
Then there was a roar over head and they looked around. A German plane flew towards the ground and landed smoothly on the ground. The pilot removed his goggles and jumped out. The British pilot pointed a gun at him and said. "Freeze!"
Then Blue gasped. "Don't shoot!" she yelled, recognizing the pilot at once.
Ulquiorra whirled round and his eyes widened; Grimmjow grinned at him and staggered over to them. Weed cried out in delight and Kyoshiro whooped. "Grimmjow!" Weed yelled, pouncing on him.
Grimmjow smirked and pushed Weed away gently. "Hello, kiddo." He said. Ulquiorra sighed and the smallest of smiles appeared on his face. "You idiot." He muttered. Blue hugged Grimmjow, who looked a little surprised. "Uh…hi…?" he said to Ulquiorra. "Hello." Ulquiorra replied. "You freaking dumbass."
Grimmjow glared. "Shut it."
"Uh, if you don't mind me asking," said the British pilot. "Who are you guys?"
"Yeah," said the other one. "I'd like to know too."
The friends introduced themselves and the British pilot grinned and said. "I am Daniel Fredrick." He said, grinning at Blue. Blue blushed lightly and looked at the floor. "Pleasure to meet you." Blue replied nervously. Grimmjow laughed loudly. Blue glared at him. "Shut it, Jagger-jerk!"
And then Ulquiorra tapped Grimmjow on the shoulder. Grimmjow stiffened and turned around. They were staring at something, a tall black thing, the monolith!
Grimmjow grinned and said. "It's about damn time!"
Weed gasped and said. "Wow…Blue, Kyoshiro…look…" Kyoshiro and Blue smiled and Ulquiorra stepped beside Grimmjow to stare at it. "Something interesting?" Daniel asked, stepping forward. "Can't you see—?" Grimmjow began, but Ulquiorra raised a finger to his lips. And Grimmjow understood, it had come for them, and them alone.
"No," Ulquiorra replied. "Nothing at all…"
Daniel turned back to his plane to inspect the possible damage and so did the other pilot. Ulquiorra looked over at them and then Grimmjow grasped his hand lightly and Ulquiorra looked around and Grimmjow turned his head towards the Monolith.
"Let's go." Grimmjow whispered to him. Ulquiorra nodded. "Of course…" And Blue, Grimmjow, Ulquiorra, Kyoshiro and Weed stepped forward and one by one, placed their hands (and paws) against it.
Daniel sighed and said. "All good, George?"
"Excellent."
"Jolly good." Daniel said and he turned. "Miss, we're—"
Daniel stared and then blinked once.
They were gone.
