Yumemi was on her knees as she panted after she finally got Orihime to stop running up the stairs, they were now in the dead middle of the shrine. It looked like it really was old and run down by how the buildings were falling apart and was really dusty. She guessed that it would have been very beautiful back in it's glory days, after she finally got her breath back she stood up straight and looked around for a little bit, this place looked like dangerous as she feared it was. This place was built on a cliff's edge, it was no wonder why it had been closed down because being close to a cliff's edge could send someone straight to their own death.
"Orihime, this place looks very dangerous," she told the other girl, but when Orihime didn't respond to her she turned to see that she was no longer beside her,"That girl, where did she go to now?" She powdered as she started to search for the said girl.
She then heard a scream from the cliff's edge, she turned and started running in that general direction, at the same time getting out of her gigai, though it was a struggle. She immediately grabbed a hold of the handle of her Zanpakuto as she neared the cliff's edge where the scream had come from, she saw a huge snake like hollow towering over Orihime who was using her shield to protect herself from the hollow that was lunging at her. Before Yumemi could pull out her Zanpakuto, the hollow had sensed that she was behind it and used it's snake tail to throw her off the edge of the cliff, pain shot through her body from the blow as she headed straight down to the shallow waters below.
"No! Yumemi!" Come a loud scream from where Orihime stood on the cliff, was staring terrified at her as she fall to the shallow water below. Yumemi, closed her eyes tightly and waited for her body to impact the hard wet ground waiting for the pain to come.
"No! Yumemi!" Came a scream from beyond the darkness, to where he was, he was suddenly filled with pure rage as his Yumemi scent came towards him. A deep growl escaped past his lips, he refused to continue to be trapped here when his Yumemi was in danger, he didn't want to lose her ever again.
"YUMEMI!!!" he shouted as he broke free out of the darkness that had trapped him for many centuries and was now entering the light.
"YUMEMI!!!" Come a shout from below her, it sounded like that voice she had kept hearing lately, but this voice couldn't be under her, there shouldn't be no one there it was just ground and water below her. That's when she heard a huge explosion behind her, she didn't have much to react to what was happening behind him, she felt two arms catch her in bridal style way which made her slowly open up her eyes to see a strange man's face looking down at her with love and fury. He had red spiky hair and his eyebrows were very bushy and looked very soft, his eyes were cat like and they were golden yellow color, his ears were longer than a human's normal ear size. As she stared up at him, she began to blush a bright red color, her heart was racing inside her chest, who was this man? And why did he seem so familiar to her? And why did he make her heart race?
"Who are you?" she asked him slowly wanting to know who he was, this caused the strange man to frown, which she didn't like to see on his face, it made her heart twist in pain.
"You don't remember who I am, Yumemi?" he looked at her sadly and she shook her head no, he sighed. "You have memory loss it seems, but that doesn't right now. What matters is that your okay, my little dreamer. I will tell you who I am but not right now, your new friend looks like she needs our help with whatever that beast is." With that statement she remembered about the Hollow attacking Orihime.
"That's right! I forgot totally forgotten about Orihime!" she tired to get out of his arms to save her friend, but he just wouldn't let her go.
"I am not letting you fight that beast alone, I refuse to lose you for a second time," he held her very close to his chest as he began to fly upwards, she let out a squeak when he did this, as she wondered how he was actually flying. As soon as he was high enough to where he was on the same level as the Hollow, he removed his left hand from her lower back and lifted it up towards the snake like Hollow, what surprised her from this action was that he was gathering energy that was the same energy as her Zanpakuto had into his opened hand, she instinctively buried her head into his chest as her hands warped around his neck, as the power shot out of his hand towards the Hollow causing it to to scream in anguish from the sudden blast, she looked back towards the Hollow and saw that same of its flesh was gone as well as bits of mask had been shattered from the the man's attack.
"How dare you interfere with my lunch!" It hissed out before lunging at him, before it could even reach its target it was frozen in pure ice. It shattered in many pieces a short time later, her captain landed on the ground with his Zanpakuto out, he looked ready to attack the red headed male but didn't even get the chance to when Orihime stopped him from doing so by putting herself in between them the two males.
"Hitsugaya-kun, I won't allow you to hurt this stranger!" she yells at him and closes her eyes tightly, this seemed to make the red head male angry as he was called a stranger.
"It's Lord Munto to you, human girl!" he snapped as he landed on the ground gently with Yumemi still in his arms.
"You can put me down now," She was starting feel very nervously in his arms.
"No, you are hurt and I rather hold you than let you walk by yourself. I promised to you a long time ago, I would always protect you and plan to keep it no matter what," he out right refused to let her go and just held her closer to his body,"Also since I'm free from the seal the others from our kingdom will shortly awaken since I am their king is now free as well." As he said this many people started to appear out of ground below the cliff's edge with the same ears as Munto and had many different hair colors. Yumemi was suddenly getting really tired and didn't object again as she slowly fall into a deep sleep in his strong arms, the last thing she heard was,"Rest well, my little dreamer." She then felt a pair if lips kiss her forehead gently as she slipped into the darkness of sleep.
