Orihime happily prepared for the after noon meal as Ulquiorra and Grimmjow still slept. They had to have drank a lot the night before because they were both unconsious. She still couldn't get over that Grimmjow had got up to some mischief the night before but she didn't want to talk to him about it because it was embarrassing.

She felt a warming in her heart. Things were going so well. Ulquiorra was welcomed and accepted. Grimmjow made some new friends it seemed that nothing at all could destroy the happiness that was going on around her. But Orihime knew better. She knew from the past that things never stayed peaceful. And she was unfortunately right-

The day continued on and Ulquiorra and Grimmjow eventually woke from their drunken coma. They said little but they smelled of sake and she was sure one of them even had the stench of vomit on them. It was no pleasant at all but she was far too polite to say anything.

"What happened to you last night Grimmjow. I do not recall seeing you some time after some of the Shingami started to leave"

Grimmjow groaned and glared at Ulquiorra. He wasn't about to go telling someone that he once hated and still kind of did about what he did-didn't do the night before.

"Of course you didn't! you were pissed. You wouldn't have been able to tell the difference between Aizen and Kurosaki you were so drunk! What ever, what I did is none of your damn business so just shut the fuck up"

Orihime instantly slapped Grimmjow over the head. She wasn't going to stand for him being so rude and swearing either. He was going to have to learn how to behave or he was going to end up with no friends and living outside.

"Don't you talk to him like that Grimmjow. He was only asking you a question. So be nice, please"

Grimmjow growled beneath his breath. What happened to him to make him be at the mercy of some woman? Lat night he certainly wasn't he had those two Soul Reapers eating out of his palm. It made him feel like a king once more.

Ulquiorra couldn't resist smiling as he lifted the tea up to his mouth. He did rather enjoy seeing the woman that bought him back from Hell treating Grimmjow like a naughty child. She would make an honest mother some day. If Orihime could handle Grimmjow then there was nothing that she wouldn't be able to do.

His eyes shifted to the front door when there was a rather loud and hurried knock outside. Ulquiorra could hear Ichigo's voice on the other side of the door and it did not sound pleasant. As a matter of fact it sounded stressed and concerned.

"What did you do Grimmjow?"

The green eyed man questioned his old enemy and he got a response that was nothing more then a deadly glare of annoyance.

Orihime got up and rushed to the door. She heard the distress in Ichigo's voice and it worried her. She didn't want to think the worst but she had thought it was something about Rukia and her help was needed. She opened the door and she could see the same look on her friends face that she had seen before. It was when Ichigo was ready to go into battle and that was confirmation that things were not okay.

"Bring Ulquiorra and Grimmjow to my place. Something's wrong and we are going to need them. Don't be too long Orihime. It's urgent"

She watched Ichigo vanish and head towards Uryu and Yasatora's home. She was so scared from that moment on. Orihime looked towards them both with worry all in her grey eyes. Ulquiorra instantly tended to her side.

"Orihime? what is wrong?"

He asked. He was worried for his woman and what was going on that Ichigo needed his and Grimmjow's assistance. Did he forget that they were now useless? They held no abilities. They had no Zanpakuto. No Cero. No ressureccion. Nothing.

"I don't know Ulqui' but we should go to Ichigo's house. It's urgent. Come on Grimmjow"

He groaned again and stood up. There was some excitement hoping he could kick some one's ass but the other someone had to be human too. He knew how much weaker he had become since becoming human but it didn't meant that he was going to not try. If anyone wanted to start shit with him then he was going to fight back. Human or not.

They walked to the Kurosaki household. It was different then it used to be. It used to be the home of Isshin Kurosaki and Ichigo's twin sisters but now the Kurosaki household was considered the home of Ichigo and Rukia.

Orihime couldn't believe how many of the Shinigami were there as well as her human friends. There was even Mr. Urahara and Yoruichi. What ever the problem was had been so bad that half the Soul Society and the special humans of the human world were called to be there. She didn't know why Ulquiorra and Grimmjow were called there but they had been and it was terrifying to think why.

Orihime walked into the large living room holding Ulquiorra's hand. She could feel Grimmjow standing behind them and lowering himself as if he was trying to hide. What ever he did the night before he didn't want to remember it or be reminded of it.

"Is this really so necessary Ichigo. Why did you bring us all here?"

Orihime heard Uryu question Ichigo and she knew the pair of them were going to start arguing. She couldn't decide who he argued worse with, Uryu or Renji. Both were as bad as the other when it came to arguing with Ichigo.

"Hey! I didn't call this, they did but you're here for a reason and it's really not good. There's no reason to drag this out. Aizen has escaped the Soul Society and we have to find him"

Orihime felt shock wave over her. She turned to Ulquiorra and gave him a look of terror. There was no telling what was going to happen. Her fairy tale was going to collapse around them.

"We do not need to be wasting time here debating what we should and should not be doing. We are in a critical stage. Most of the Shinigami have been trained to defeat Aizen but we do not know if his abilites have advanced. We need the fallen Espada to track him down"

"How the hell are we supposed to know where the fuck he is? In case you don't remember Kuchiki. We haven't got shit any more. What do expect us to do? I wanna kill the guy myself but I ain't an idiot. We aren't your damn hunting dogs"

Orihime looked at Grimmjow trying to get him to calm down as he shouted at Byakuya. It was like the worst nightmare that was coming true. Aizen had escaped. No one said how or why and no body knew where he was.

"Can't Mr. Urahara do something? Can't he locate Aizen?"

Orihime asked trying to defuse the situation before it got any more out of hand.

"Sorry little lady. I can't I haven't been able to sense Aizen since I bound him. There really isn't much more I can do other then lend a hand"

It seemed like all that was happening was they were going to be sent on a wild goose chase to try and find the escaped prisoner.

"Look, It doesn't matter! we need to find Aizen. I will go with Byakuya, Renji, Orihime, Uryu, Chad, Ulquiorra and Grimmjow. The rest of you split up into teams. Keep communication open and let's find this bastard"

Orihime was worried for Ulquiorra and Grimmjow. They had protection from their team. They were going to have to keep an eye out for Aizen but also be shields for the ex-Espada. If they were lucky Aizen would have been found quickly and Ulquiorra and Grimmjow would be safe. But what worried her the most was not even Byuakuya knew if Aizen had advanced his abilities while he was locked up.

Orihime watched Ichigo go to Rukia and he held her close. He had ordered for Rangiku, Shuhei, Izuru and Yumichika to watch after her and take turns on guard in case Aizen came looking for Ichigo and revenge. Her heart broke a little seeing Ichigo so concerned and so worried. She could see how badly he wanted Rukia to be safe even though it would have been him that Aizen would have gone after.

Well would you look at that? Aizen's escaped and I'm writing for so many characters right now. I have no idea what's going to happen next so we will have to find out together. Danke and enjoy the next chapter-when I actually write it.
