Unknown To The Darkness

Born from darkness, reigns over light.
Strength of an Espada, Mind and Body of a Shinigami.
Who is this girl?!

Disclaimer: Like always, I don't own Bleach. Only Nilda, and other appearances of my OC's.

The sound of Nilda scribbling something down on a sheet of paper, while the teacher spoke something on mathematical principle, came to Grimmjow's ears. He growled in anger, mostly annoyance, as he sat in the desk next to Nilda. Grimmjow glanced to Nilda; who, of course, was distracted by the teacher's on going lecture. He quickly noted she was wearing the girl's uniform, despite some altercations that she made of her own. The uniform, in its self, showed much of her curves of her body, even though he saw her alter the width of the bust area a time or two at the house.

She wore black knee high boots, which of course had buckles traveling up the sides, looked like it was pulled out of some gothic rocker shop. She got them from weird shop called Hot Topic or something of the sort. Her knee high socks peeked out from her boots and had some clasps to keep them high. The two black straps vanish under her mid-thigh uniform skirt. The uniform jacket curved along with her body, the jacket's zipper was under great strain from her bust. The same went for her, now dyed black, uniform shirt. Grimmjow made a comment on it earlier before they left the house; she was close to impaling him with a kitchen butter knife.

Instead of the red bow tie, she used a red tie and had it tuck securely under jacket. She looked pristine and proper, unlike Grimmjow's wrinkled and unkempt uniform. What Grimmjow never noticed before till now how cat like she is. Besides her striking yellow eyes, she had pulled her hair into high ponytail, which the way she had it pulled up with a red ribbon; looked like two red cat ears were poking up.

Nilda must have felt his eyes on her by now, due to her sharp glare he was getting from her. A soft grumble came from her throat, giving off a warning to him. Grimmjow scoffed at her attempts.

"Say Nilda! Wanna go shopping with Tatsuki and me after school?" Said Orihime as she pulled out a, obviously over stuffed, bright red bento box. Nilda nodded as she chewed on some of her lunch she brought. Nilda never thought some human foods taste this good! Certainly, the red octopus wieners were her favorite so far.

"Sure! I would love to! I don't think Rex wouldn't mind in the least that I went out for a bit. He's a big boy; I'll just have to bring him some food home though. The idiot doesn't know how to cook to well. That is if you like caracole in your diet or a burnt down house for that matter." Commented Nilda; quietly reminding her to pick on him for burning water later.

Orihime blinked at her, "I was wondering, Nilda. Is Rex your boyfriend? We always see you hanging around him ever since you came here a week ago." She asked. Nilda was drinking some of the soda Tatsuki asked her to try at the time when Orihime asked her.

Nilda spewed out the soda and begun coughing violently, Tatsuki tried to help her back patting her back. Nilda raised her hand to stop Tatsuki, "What makes you say that, Orihime?" Said Nilda; choking out the words as she caught her breath.

"Well. You're always around him whenever he goes somewhere. I see you guys at the grocery store and walking to the park together. Things like that." She responded; tilting her head, putting her index finger to her temple in a thinking gesture; her eyes seem to peer off to the sky like she was searching for the memory there.

Nilda laughed, hoping to reassure the girls, "It's nothing like that; I assure you. Rex and I are friends, siblings almost if anything. Nothing of that sort will happen in this lifetime at the least," Said Nilda, while she was putting away her finish bento box. She stood up and fixed her skirt before she grabbed her things.

"I'm going to tell Rex. I'll see you guys after school." Said Nilda, and then said her goodbyes till later.

Nilda's POV

Grimmjow was already out of his uniform and looked more annoyed than when I saw him earlier. No matter, if he gets scolded by humans but he better not kill them. If he reveals us, I'll be the one that is scolded.

When I walked towards them, Uryuu was the only one to notice my arrival and acknowledge my presence. I looked at him and he quickly shifted his eyes away from me. I was going to ask him something about that, but I decided to ignore it for the moment.

"Rem. I'm hanging out with Orihime and Tatsuki after school. What do you want for supper? I'll be dropping by the store for some food, might as well get you something while I'm out." I said. Grimmjow's eye glared at me, his eyebrow twitched along with it. He's becoming annoyed at me, how cute.

"I'm going with you." He stated boldly. I smirked at him, his eyebrows knitted together at my expression. He knew I was up to something, and something it was.

"Is it because Orihime will be there?" I teased, acting much like the human teenage girls that I see in the hallways. I wonder why they act that way around the same sex so much, but when the opposite sex walks around they put up a front. It's rather confusing information, but useful at the moment with Grimmjow. His eyes narrowed sharply at me; that's the reaction I was hoping to get. This conversation was pushing on dangerous territory.

"Well I was going to ask Uryuu along, that is if he would like to join us." I said, catching the bored Quincy's attention. He turned his eyes to me, surprise to hear his name mention in the conversation. Grimmjow's eyes eased slightly at me, due to him going in deep thought, I learned this after our argument over take-out last night.

"Why bug Uryuu with your insecurities of being alone with a couple girls?" He snarled. Well thought, I guess I'll give him that much.

'Why worry about me asking him? After all, you just included yourself to the group consisting of myself, Tatsuki, and Orihime." I said, stressing hard on Orihime's name.

"Anyway, with that said. Would you like to join us, Uryuu? Rex isn't much company to me and Orihime and Tatsuki will leave after our shopping is done. I would greatly appreciate it if you joined us. I tend to get lost around here still. Oh! That is if you don't have anything planned, I wouldn't want to impose on you." I said laughing a little.

Uryuu paused for a minute, "I guess it wouldn't hurt if I came along. There is this new store there I have been meaning to check out for some time." He said. I smiled at him warmly. This gooey conversation is starting to leave a serious nasty taste in my mouth.

"Thank you, Uryuu." I said. A tinge of pink rose to his face.

The bell sounded it's shrilly scream telling it's obeying students it was time to go back to class. From there the classes blazed through nothing flat. Orihime and Tatsuki waited for us at the gates and we left the now deserted school.

The shopping didn't take as long as I thought. Tatsuki had to leave due to her family calling her about something and Orihime left with her, so Uryuu and I completed what else I needed and left the huge building. It gave me a lot of insight on some of the girls that came around us to flirt with the ever distant Uryuu, in which they failed miserably to ask him on a date. I really wouldn't blame him if I had some girl's assets in my face all the time, talking my head off about her hair or something that would never count as an intellect conversation.

I saw this halter shirt that had a collar, but skin-tight. It was white with a blue cross; much like that Quincy Cross outfit Gin had shown me on the reports of Uryuu. Strange, I thought, that something like that was here. So I bought it. I liked the colors and style anyway.

"So. You and Rex are not dating, if I'm correct?" He said, trying to start a conversation.

I nodded, "Yes, you are. Rex and I are nothing more than siblings, I would have to say. He's good at what he does and helps, but he's not the type for me. I like strong men, but I don't want them to be as head-strong, much like he is." I said, as I looked at random boots. Uryuu's mind must have wondered because the conversation stopped there until we left the mall.

As we walked down the sidewalk, Uryuu would sneak small glances at me. I had changed into the Quincy shirt and a pair of simple flare jeans. The uniform started to get on my nerves.

"If Rex gets on your nerves so much, why live with him?" He said. The silence being broken so abruptly, it almost startled me. Almost. Quit laughing.

"Well, it's not like he's perfect or anything. That's what siblings do best though, I know he's not really my family; but he's my best friend. I get on his nerves as much as he does on mine, so he doesn't really bother me that often. Of course there is always a time or two I want to strangle him for not thinking first, but that's sibling love for you." I explained. I looked to him.

A smile tug at his features, "I don't have any siblings, so I really can't feel what you have with Rex. The same for Kurosaki." He said; his eyes seemed distant for a minute. He must have caught my staring, because he quickly averted his eyes from me.

"Who's to say that you don't have siblings? Blood; no, of course you don't. But as for friends; you have SO many! I'm envious of that. I never had many friends that are willing to drop everything at a moment's notice. My previous friends ditched me for men, sex, money; anything that makes them achieve higher in life. So to be honest, you have more siblings that you even know." I said.

He stopped in his tracks and I continued walking, "There is a saying I use to hear a lot from my teachers. 'A foolish man knows neither of his surroundings nor the perils he'll endue, as for the wise man knows to look to his friends that will help battle him along side him.' Do you understand what I am saying to you, Uryuu? Even though you think you're alone and standing against the mountains of enemies, you have everyone behind you at the ready to take on the fight. And you know what?" I said, stopping, keeping my back to him.

"What?" He said.

I turned on my heel, "And I'll be right behind you, ready to take it on with you. After all, what are siblings for?" I said smiling brightly. He started at me in shock; I turned away from him noticing that the house or 'base' was just down the street.

"Well, I'll be seeing you later, Uryuu. I better get this food home before Rex starts screaming like a mashed cat." I said, and the started walking away.

"Nilda! Wait!" He said as he grabbed my hand. I looked back at him, "Yes?" I said.

He blushed, "Um. Uh. Would-you-like-to-join-our-sewing-club?!" He said quickly, trying to cover his embarrassment.

I blinked, if it was for the fact I was use to hearing fast talking Espada, I wouldn't have understood him.

"I would love to. I'll see you then, Uryuu." I said, and walked away from him. I glanced back noticing he was still there, but then turned and left out of my sight. I could feel his reitsu for about a few till it simply vanished. That caught my interest.

"Hey! Rex!" I called as I reach the gate of the house. I could hear Grimmjow's growls as he stomped up to the gate.

"Forgot your key, didn't you stupid bitch." He snarled as I heard him walked to the gate. I snarled to myself, 'That bastard has to complain about something all the time.' I thought as I raised my foot to waist level.

When he opened the gate, after the gate's oversize lock make its loud click. "Well? Did you, bit-UMF!" He started, but my foot to his face interrupted him. He fell to the ground, I stared down at him, and I could feel my blood boil with annoyance and anger for a moment. Only for a moment. Yes, only for a moment. Quit smiling, you.

Grimmjow's POV

When I opened the gate, I saw her standing there with a large amount of bags in her hands. "Well? Did you, bit-UMF!?" I started to say, but her foot planted right in my face. I fell backwards on my ass to the ground, "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT FOR, BITCH!?" I yelled. She only glared down at me, her eyes glowing in the shadows that her bangs casted over her face.

"Call me that a bitch again and I'll tell Aizen-sama to get you neutered. Do we have an understanding, you worthless dog!" She snarled at me.

I growled at her, and then before I can challenge her, foots steps came to our ears. We looked over and saw Kurosaki and that Kuchiki girl. Nilda turned around while I got up to dust myself off. She was turning on her charm.

"Hey. Yuzu wanted to know if you guys would join us for dinner?" He asked.

Before I said something, Nilda spoke first, "I'm sorry, but we can't tonight. Maybe another night. Rex has dinner already for us to eat. So, we'll see you guys around." They nodded, waved goodbye, and left; she shut the gate after they went to the house.

She moved past me, "Well are you coming? I have dinner." She said.

Grumbling to myself, I followed her to the house. From the she must have traveled to the kitchen, when I got there she was setting out steaming, sweating boxes on the rather large, dark red Japanese table. Her eyes held so many different emotions. She intrigues me. Nilda's emotions can turn in a moment; from her cold, heartless nature then out of the blue when those bastards Shinigami appear, along with his weak friends. The clicking of plates brought me out of my thoughts.

"If you want your food, come get it now or I'll eat it and not save you any." She said bluntly.

I snorted and moved over to the table, sitting down on the plush, matching pillows. She set a wide mouth bowl in front of me, dipping out about one serving of each of the five boxes, topping it off with some kind of brown sauce dashed on it, turning the rice lightly brown. When she dish out her serving, she quietly sat down and begun to eat. A sharp yellow eye glared at me.

"Are you not going to eat, Grimmjow." She said.

It didn't sound like she was asking, but not demanding an answer. I only grunted and ate.

*~*

When she finished, she shut herself up in her room, typing on that damned computer Gin gave her. I sat down on the couch, hard I would say, since the couch gave out a groan and turned on the television. Ever since we arrived things with her seemed pretty dull. She keeps to herself, what a fucking suck up! Filing in line like some damn dog to its master! I grumbled and growled. Then out of the blue she stood in front of me, peering over me like a mother scolding her child.

"Ichigo and his friends are coming over tomorrow. Behave yourself. Understand?" She ordered. I grunted in reply. She glared sharply down at me, fangs beared at me. I stood up, bumping her out of my way, in which she grabbed my arm tightly.

"Remember also that there are other Shinigami around besides the one that follows your little boy." She stated.

I ripped away from her, "You. Don't. Give. Me. Orders." I snarled and I stomped off to my part of the house.

Nilda's POV

His eyes flashed at me, a growl erupted from his throat, "You. Don't. Give. Me. Orders." He snarled.

When he stomped off to his room like an immature child, I locked up the house and turned off the lights. I quietly went to take a shower, I felt dirty after dealing with those human girls at school. I peeled off the school uniform I was still wearing and drew a hot shower. I stepped into the falling, steaming waters, letting it run over me. My tanned skin turned slightly red from the scalding waters. I grabbed the weird thing that looks like a puff ball of soft plastic called a Loofa I think. I added the liquid soap that smelled like what the humans call blueberries. I lathered the puff thing and begun washing my slightly scarred body.

I made me wonder how Gin knew some of the scars on my body that even I didn't know I had until I was released from the healing tank. A click brought me out of my thoughts, I slid back the door to the shower and there stood a unexpected Grimmjow. He stared for a minute then slammed the down as hard as he could since it came off its hinges and he looked at me again awkwardly, rushing off somewhere. I smirked at his awkwardness to seeing me naked in the shower. I finished up after washing my hair, and then brushed my teeth. I went to my room to dry my hair and sat down at my computer, beginning to put in my daily report. Before hand I had took the hot water knob off and cranked the cold water knob till it was stuck on freezing ice cold.

Day Twenty-Three

Grimmjow and I are becoming closer with Kurosaki and his friends. I certainly got closer with the girl, Orihime, and the Quincy, Uryuu. He invited to something called a sewing club, whatever that may be. Grimmjow is starting to settle down slightly, but still is itching to fight. He boldly stated to me that I do not give him orders. He does certain things I tell him to do, like eat or bathe, but when it comes to the Shinigami and Kurosaki is of course another story. I felt a few more Shinigami enter the Karakura Town area. Certainly near Orihime's area and other's slightly across town from there. I felt a Captain's reitsu. Certainly two of them. It is possible Grimmjow may have slipped a little without my knowledge of it. I shall look into it tomorrow while we are undercover at the human building called school. I will report everything in person soon after.

"WOMAN! DAMN IT NILDA! WHAT THE FUCK?! HOW DO YOU TURN THE HOT WATER ON, BITCH?!!! SHIT, IT'S FUCKING COLD!!!!!" I heard him scream from the bathroom. I chuckled, tossing the hot water knob in my hand, catching it, smirking evilly to myself.

"Payback is a bitch, Grimmjow." I chuckled to myself.

P.S. The plumbing is in need of fixing. The water in the bathing quarters is stuck on cold and the hot water turning device is currently missing at the moment.



Grimmjow: You're cold.

Me: Quit complaining. They always say a cold shower is good for you once in a while.

Nilda: *laughs quietly*

Ichigo: You just got pwned by the writer, Grimmjow.

Grimmjow: *growls* Shut the fuck up, Ichigo. Or I'll ask her to pair you with Chad!

Ichigo: You don't have the balls, butt-munch.

Uyruu: *sighs* Read.

Nilda: And. *sips hot coco*

Rem and Hitsugaya: Review!
