"We've gone through so much together. We've had our arguments, we've had our battles, we've had our laughs, and we've had our ups and downs. Yet, we still talk and laugh together hysterically. We get along just fine. You would've had everything if you were by my side. Now, you don't have me. I'm sorry I ever loved you. Maybe next time, you'll see how big of a hole you left in my heart."

Hueco Mundo {Continued}

POV: Orihime Inoue

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" I yelled out. Once again, I lost someone close to me because it's my fault for being so weak.

The cero disappeared and I couldn't bear to look. Ichigo is gone, because of me. I finally opened my eyes, but looked over at Grimmjow. He was as cocky as ever! Urgh! I want to give him a piece of my mind!

He started to walk towards me and I swear I felt I was going to die. Then, behind him, I looked over to see Ichigo's body. My eyes widened.

"Where's Ichigo?"

"What're ya talking about?" Girmmjow aggressed and looked behind him. Before he was able to turn fully to look, he was slaughtered badly. His blood all over the floor.

"Ichi…go?"

He was all wounded and hurt and yet, he managed to live! How was this possible?

"Orihime, stand behind me, now." He said with the most serious cute look! Oh, I'm falling for him for sure!

I walked behind him and just stood there watching. He had more wounds inflicted on him than I thought he would have. His back was all scarred up, bloody; I had to help him but….

"Don't." he said as he rose up his blade.

I thought he didn't have his spiritual power. How could he attack? How could he possibly win? Tsk!

"Wait Ichigo!" I yelled and ran in front of him and my eyes widened as he struck at me.

Ichigo, why did he attack me? He would've stopped!

I started to cry as my wound started to burn. It was unbearable. I looked up to see his gorgeous eyes and as I did, I knew why he had lost it.

"His inner hollow", I said to myself.

His mask finally just disappeared and his beautiful eyes looked down into my own. They widened with fear, shock.

"Orihime?" he said with concern.

"Heh, Ichigo. Welcome back." I forced out a smile.

"No! Orihime! Don't smile at me! I hurt you! Tsk! ORIHIME!" he yelled at me and pushed me aside. Grimmjow had delivered the final blow. That would've been me if Ichigo hadn't pushed me out of the way, he…..

"Grimmjow! Why?" I yelled out.

"Your coming with me!" he was wounded badly, but he's still standing. He grabbed me with such a force in his grip he caused me to bleed from my arm to my wrist.

"NO NO NO! PUT ME DOWN! ICHIGO! HELP ME!" I yelled out reaching out for him, crying, and kicking.

POV: Ichigo Kurosaki

"Ori…hime" I let out and tried getting up to reach out for her. I got up and charged at Grimmjow with my fists.

"Oh don't be serious!" Grimmjow yelled out and grabbed my neck by his fist and slammed me down on the ground. I coughed out blood at the force he placed on my body. There I lay, weak, numb, paralyzed.

Where have I felt this before? That's right, a few years back when I fought Byakuya Kuchiki for the first time. Nice memory. NOT. Orihime was all I could think about at the moment. I tried getting up; I felt like I was getting up but in reality I wasn't moving at all.

"Ichigo! Don't!" Orihime yelled out worriedly.

"Orihime", I tried reaching out for her and Grimmjow walked over and stepped on my hand. Bloody shit! It hurt! My hand felt as if it was being burned.

"AGH! St…..stop it Grimmjow! What'd you want?" I yelled out in pain trying to push him off.

"I WANT YOU DEAD! ANNIHILATED FROM THE WORLD! ERASE YOU EXISTENCE!" he yelled back and put more force onto my hand. I heard something crack. I couldn't tell what was worse; the fact that I was in pain or the fact that Orihime got caught up in this mess.

"You're not talking ey? MAYBE THIS WILL!" he moved his foot at placed it over my chest. The worse place to put pressure on after being cut up there. The more force he put on my chest the more blood he made me cough up.

"Grimmjow! Please stop!" Orihime yelled out sadly.

"I will once he's DEAD!" he yelled out.

She cried. I can see it in her eyes. The fear she had of losing me. Was she that into me?

"Agh!" again I coughed out blood as the pressure became harder. I can't feel anything anymore. I can't move, I can't speak, and I can't blink. Nothing.

Finally, I decided that, "this is it", I said to myself. I looked over at Orihime for awhile and let out the last smile I knew would be the last she would ever see.

…..

…..

…..

That's it. I blacked out and started falling deeper and deeper into an abyss of darkness that was ongoing.

POV: Orihime Inoue

"ICHIGO! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" she cried.

"This is over! Hmph." He walked away with me and…..that was the last I saw Kurosaki-Kun. He's been injured, nearly killed by Ulquiorra. Now, he's gone because of me again, but this time by….Grimmjow Jaggerjack.

"The distance I wanted to walk with you, the times we would spend with each other, the more you smiled back at me for something good, you would brighten up my day Ichigo Kurosaki. Yet, you always had that gentle touch. Your smooth skin. If only I can feel what your lips are like. I guess….that will never happen now. You have been touched by an angel and are gone. I love you…..forever and always will…..Kurosaki-Kun."
