Disclaimer: Er I'm tired of this, you guys know it.


The Bet.

1 Month Ago

"Oy Arrancar! Your caretaker is here." The guard said in a cocky tone, Aki entered the cell and smiled at Grimmjow, Grimmjow just glared at her. Aki took out a smile vile and waved it in his face, he followed it and then let his gaze fall back on the annoying girl, she had put the vile away and began jotting down something in his chart. He looked to see that she was alone, she wasn't following that pale faced Shinigami, she and that shinigami slightly reminded him of Szayel, always experimenting on something. Only this time it was himself, Szayel didn't have the balls to even touch him, this girl was always prodding him, touching him, though he didn't mind the contact, he had been deprived of the feeling of a woman in his arms. The girl before him was close enough, at least there was some flesh touching him. He glanced at the guard who was looking her with a strong interest, the guards eyes were undressing the young shinigami, the guard licked his lips. Grimmjow growled, the girl was well . . . in some way his, the girl only came for him, not to visit the guard, he was becoming slightly protective of the young girl. She again took out the vile and looked at it with interest, finally Grimmjow spoke up.

"What's that?" he asked wary of the clear liquid in the vile.

"Your death sentence, either become a shinigami or die at the hands of one. I'm the one who's going to kill you not the other shinigami." she said with a smirk, he growled, was she here to kill him, he thought he had this final month.

"You act as if I belong to you woman." he growled.

"At the moment you do." he growled and lunged at her, he pinned her up against the wall, the guard was about to open the cell door and try to get Grimmjow to let her go but she stopped him, she smiled down at the espada. She casually put the vile away and looked at her attacker straight in the eyes, she smiled and placed a hand on his nicely defined chest, he gasped at the sudden contact. She lightly racked her nails on his chest, he purred and pushed himself closer to the girl. After the incident of her catching him in the act . . . . she would tease him to get him to calm down.

"I die at the hands of Shinigami or live and become a shinigami, I hate both but I'll take the latter. So what is you are planning on doing?" Aki smirked, Grimmjow put her down on her feet, she turned away from him, she was the only person with the guts to turn her back to him, then again she was the only one who knew how to calm him down as well.

"It's more on the lines of spiritual than scientific as Mayuri-kun would prefer, I just need to perfect the gigai, you'll have organs and all." she turned to look at a confused Grimmjow, she giggled and walked over to him. He glared down at her and again she began poking at him, he growled in annoyance but allowed her to do it. She began to examine his mask, he growled when she harshly turned his head around so she could get a better look at his mask.

"Are you going to miss your mask once you're human?" he looked down at her, he shrugged his shoulders.

"Maybe, I'm not a human yet to know if I would miss, though I might, the weight on my face not being there, could be." she nodded her head and smiled.

"Well when you turn vizard who knows, you might get a whole hollow mask or just your jaw piece." he nodded his head.

The memory dissipated, Grimmjow turned and looked at Aki, he smirked. Aki placed her book down she felt Grimmjow staring at her. He grabbed her book and began flipping through it, he chucked it back onto her desk.

"Weren't you reading something totally different yesterday?" She nodded her head and looked down at the book.

"I read quickly, this is a new book, my dad picked it up for me, he knows I have a thing for love stories." Grimmjow stuck his tongue out in disgust, she stared at him amused.

"Disgusting, humans and their love stories." She shook her head and poked him on the arm, he glared at her.

"You're human now too." he sighed, the girl was right, but it didn't mean he had to enjoy all that love shit. Love was just a waste of time, there was no point to it, there is no such thing as love, people claim to love someone but how, they say it's love, but he never believed it. Love is a waste of time, to him it is all about lust, sex and that's all that it was about.

"Shut up." he growled, she smiled, placing a hand on her chin as if thinking she gave him the creepiest smile he had ever seen. Yeah he had what you would call a fucking crazy and creepy smile, but she just topped it right now.

"Someday Grim you'll find someone you will love and you won't find it so disgusting." He began to laugh, Aki stared at him oddly. So that was it, that was what her smile was about, him ever falling in love was ludicrous, he is human that much is true, but it didn't mean human emotions would take over now would it.

"Think whatever you want woman but that will never happen!" Aki smirked, this was going to be fun.

"All right then let's make a bet, if you fall in love you have to um . . . listen to me, as in when I tell you what to do you do it." He lifted an eyebrow and shrug his shoulders.

"Fine but I doubt I'll fall for a human, but we have to set a time limit what if I do fall in love but it as at a time where I am no longer in your care, what can you do then?" Aki contemplated for a moment before she made her decision.

"Ok this bet will last an entire year, most likely you will still be in my care, soul society won't let you go in such a short time." Grimmjow grinned widely.

"You're on, but what do I get in return if I win?" he said, she thought it over for a moment.

"I don't know it's your call." he grinned, now this was going to be real fun.

"All right, if I win . . . hm . . . you be my little slave for about two months, and that means I get whatever I want . . . even if it means I want sex . . . you'll give it up to me." she blushed and turned away from him and shook her head no.

"Isn't there anything else you want?!" he shook his head no, she sighed in defeat, she knew she wasn't going to get out of this easily. She stuck her hand out agreeing to his terms, he grinned and shook her hand. Aki was just going to have to find some way to get him to fall in love before the end of the year if not she would be stuck being the crazy bastards slave.


Sakura squealed, the Sai came running over to her wondering if she was injured. He noticed her looking into the pond, he looked into it only to find the familiar sight of Aki and Grimmjow. Sai sighed and shook his head, the woman was becoming obsessed with the two teens, just what was it now that they had done that made her squeal in delight.

"Lady Sakura what is now?" Sai asked, she smiled and stood up.

"The bet that they just made! Oh what I wouldn't give to be Aki right now! Well at least Raito and Kamui are close to her." He nodded his head, they were lucky they were human they wouldn't need gigai. Kamui ran into the throne room, he ran over to Sai and started clinging to him, the two came back from school early, once again the boy was pouting, Sai wondered what was wrong with him. Kamui noticed the look of concern on his leaning post and smiled.

"Worried about me Sai-chan! Too cute!" he rubbed his cheek against the older man, Sai growled and tried to get the clingy boy off of him but he wouldn't budge, he looked over to Sakura who was blushing lightly. Sai immediately knew what the woman was thinking about, he put his hands up in defense.

"IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK LADY SAKURA! WE'RE NOT A COUPLE!" she pouted and snapped her fingers.

"Darn and here I thought I would get to see some yoai action! Well forget the hot yoai-ness and get to work boys, I want that girls power, Soul Society and the Human world will soon be mine!" she giggled and skipped off to her chambers, Raito shook his head wondering how such a woman could be so evil. Then again looks could be deceiving, especially when it came to her, she may look weak but the woman was more powerful than she was given credit for, if she in fact took the power from Aki she could in reality rule over Soul Society and the Human world forever.
