Chapter 2 - Strain
They reached the building, highlighting the cities eternal beauty. The lights shined brightly over the sleepless town. Soul reapers jumped everywhere to find the escaped Espada. The ten Espadas sat on the building, thinking about their next move.
"So what do we do, if we don't move we'll all die." Said Grimmjow
Harribel turned round to meet the teenager
"there's not much we can do for the time being. If he's moved to much it'll put too much strain on his body and kill him." she said, turning back to the unconscious Espada.
Grimmjow picked him up, the spoke;
"I'll take him somewhere where he'll be okay, you get everyone else away from here. " He said before sped away.
Stark grabbed the sleeping girl and carried her. Behind them where everyone else. Harribel sped ahead leading them to a new safe haven.
Grimmjow landed on top of a small house far away from any of the soul reaper houses. He laid down Ulquiorra and placed his hand on the hilt of his zanpakuto. A girl left her house, looking very familiar. He placed Ulquiorra's body over his shoulder but just as he was leaving.
"Grimmjow, why are you here?" said a frightened Orihime.
He turned to face her as she looked at the body over her shoulder. She gasped, almost falling.
"W-why is Ulquiorra unconscious? " she said stuttering slightly.
Grimmjow flashed down and covered her mouth.
"silence or you'll draw attention to us." He said.
She drew herself away from them. She stopped and looked sympathetically at Ulquiorra.
"Bring him in before he gets worse." She said.
Grimmjow didn't move. he stood strong and proud against the shaking teenage girl.
"I can't trust you. " he said bluntly.
"It's your only option, I'll protect you and try to heal Ulquiorra. If I betray you then I'll break my shun-shun-rika." She said firmly.
Grimmjow looked at her and then grinned.
"Fine but I get to break it." He said.
Orihime gasped. She didn't want to break them but she couldn't leave Ulquiorra like that. He had saved her whilst she was in Hueco Mundo. She owed him her life. She couldn't just leave him there.
"Deal!" she said, sticking her hand out.
Grimmjow gripped her hand and shuck it firmly. She opened the door and pushed him in. She looked discreetly out the door before closing it and locking it. She lead Grimmjow to the living room.
"Lay him on the sofa please?" she asked.
Grimmjow did as he was told before sitting across from him. Orihime could sense the worry in his eyes. She opened her shield and two faeries popped out. They formed a shield over his unconscious body. Grimmjow looked at the floor and clutched his fists.
"Orihime, there's nothing wrong with his body but there's an enormous strain on his soul." said Shun'o
Grimmjow gasped.
He didn't do that did he, the fucking idiot.
He looked back and realized it was true, he had used that move.
"What's the strain?" she asked.
"He used some kind of move sealing the Gargantua from anywhere else, including here." said Shun'o
"Fucking idiot!" exploded Grimmjow.
"Why, what move was it?" asked the nervous teenager.
"it was the Koukyuu Joumae." he said angrily "And The last time he used it he almost died."
Orihime gasped. She was about to place her hand in his when;
"Don't touch him!" He shouted "Fucking idiot honestly."
"Shun'o, How can we heal him?" she asked
"he needs a constant supply of Spiritual pressure to keep him from loosing all of his." She replied.
"We can help him but we need a certain someone to help him." Said Orihime "How is he helping us?"
Grimmjow then looked.
"Aizen attacked us all for no reason. Gin and Tosen are dead. He's sealing the Gargantua to stop him from entering into here."
Orihime left to go and get drinks for the both of them. At that a very sleepy Espada awoke sorely.
"Where the fuck are we hybrid?" Asked a very grumpy Ulquiorra.
"The ginger girls house." Replied Grimmjow. "You knew full well what would happen if you used that move and you did it anyway."
"It was this or everyone die." Ulquiorra said.
"I can't fucking loose you Ulqui!" He shouted.
Ulquiorra looked at him and blushed slightly. since when did this idiot care. He looked away keeping his emotions at a bare minimum.
"We don't have a choice, It's me or everyone and I'm not facing the risk of everyone potentially dying. That would include you." He said. Grimmjow face the other way blushing too.
"Please, at least try surviving this time." Grimmjow said.
A large fluctuation of spiritual pressure filled the room and his Ulquiorra with full force. He burst into a coughing fit with his hands over his mouth. When he removed them, there was blood.
"So that's what he's doing." he said. "I won't last a week.
Orihime walked in to see Ulquiorra and his blood dripping hands. She grabbed a cloth and handed it to him.
"the certain person will see you tomorrow but if you do not behave, he will surrender you to the soul society." She said.
After an hour of talking and finalizing the events over with Orihime, Ulquiorra fell asleep on Grimmjow. Orihime want into another room to sleep, secretly giggling.
Loosing you is more then pain.
