(Well, I finally revealed Aizen's Plans… Um, Thank you for everyone whose read this from the beginning. That makes me happy. ^_^)
Chapter 14: Forgotten
Ulquiorra awoke on his floor. He had no recollection of how he got there, or why he had even been on the floor in the first place. He sat up and looked at his completely blank bed; well except for the white pillow and blanket. There seemed to be an anonymous presence about it, as if there was something he had forgotten, but he ignored it and left his room to go find Aizen.
The only reason he was looking for his superior was to see if there was a job for him to do. He was bored.
He found the said man sitting where he usually was on his high white chair. He looked up at him with a stoic expression.
"Why hello there Ulquiorra," Aizen said smirking as he always did. "Is there something you want from me?"
"Are there any missions you wish me to do in the world of the living, Aizen-sama?" Ulquiorra asked, breathlessly.
"Yes, there is. You can go scout out enemy soul reapers in Karakura town," Aizen announced.
Ulquiorra bowed briefly saying, "Yes Aizen-sama." Then he disappeared through the gargantua (I hope that's what its called).
He waited in the human world more bored than he was before, but he didn't feel like going back to Hueco Mundo. There wasn't a thing to do there either. He sat in a tree as most of the day went by.
At around midday, he moved to the bridge. He had an extreme feeling of déjà vu there, but there was nothing he could remember. It seemed like he was forgetting something very important to him. Hating the feeling, he went back to Hueco Mundo to do other things.
As he passed by a room, and was greeted by Grimmjow. That was strange, because they hardly ever greeted each other before. What did he want?
"Hey Ulquiorra, how's Midori doing?" Grimmjow asked.
Ulquiorra frowned, "Who?" He retorted, annoyed.
"You're kidding right? You know, Midori, your daughter!" Grimmjow informed.
Ulquiorra glared at him, unamused with this strange conversation. Before he entered his room he said, "I do not kid, and I don't have a daughter." He shut the door and locked it. Quietly, he shuffled onto his bed and fell asleep. ~
When Midori woke up she was in Gin's room, on his bed. She sat up and rubbed her eyes, looking around the room curiously.
"Where's my daddy?" she asked. The last time she was awake was in the Ford expedition on the ride home. So, she was apparently home again, but not in her room.
"Oh," Gin announced, coming in with some snacks for her to eat. "He's out on a mission for Aizen-sama. He'll be back soon."
Midori took the snacks and nommed them down. She was so innocent, and didn't know the fate that would soon be in store for her.
She smiled at Gin saying, "Okay."
Gin sat by her on his bed. He was bored now, because he couldn't leave his room. He had to keep his eyes on the child at all times.
"So," he asked. "Whatcha wanna do?"
She shrugged cutely as she peered around his room. This was a place she hadn't visited for a while.
Mainly all she and Gin did was talk while she stayed there. They were both very bored.
Finally as she made her way around his room again, looking at stuff, Midori noticed a framed picture that caught her eye. It was perched upon a small nightstand next to Gin's bed. The picture was of a beautiful, big breasted, strawberry blonde woman, winking at the camera in a flirtatious way.
"Wow!" Midori exclaimed in amazement. "She looks like one of those girls in Uncle Grimmjow's magazines with naked ladies in them!"
"What?!" Gin exclaimed, coming to see what on earth she was talking about. When he saw the picture she was looking at, his expression slightly mellowed and there was a tinge of melancholy about him.
"Oh, you're looking at Rangiku," he announced quietly.
"Oo! Who is she?" Midori wondered.
Gin's grin widened, as he really wasn't trying to look sad at the current moment.
"She's… just a dear old friend of mine," Gin announced.
Midori pouted unsatisfied with his answer, but she wanted to do something else.
She lay on the bed, bored. She wanted to leave Gin's room and see her dad.
"Midori I'm going to run an errand. Promise you'll stay right here?" Gin asked as he was leaving out his door.
"Okay," Midori said, her hand behind her back with fingers crossed.
When Gin was far enough away, she left his room and went back to her own. The door was locked though. She knocked on the door to get her father's attention. ~
Ulquiorra woke up to the sound of someone slamming at his door. Grumpily, he went and answered it, opening the door to a slight. He was surprised to see a really little arrancar standing there outside. He'd never seen her before.
"What do you want?" He asked emotionlessly.
"C'mon dad let me in!" She begged.
He frowned, annoyed with her. He didn't get the whole point of everyone saying he had a daughter, because he surely did not.
Without further speaking to her he shut the door and locked it. Then he went back to sleep. He was totally ignoring everyone's antics. ~
Midori stood there, stunned. Her own father just cast her off like they didn't even know each other. She felt very sad now and wandered over to Grimmjow's room to see if she could stay with him, but he wasn't there. So, she wandered around in the halls. At least until she bumped into someone she really didn't want to see. She stopped in the middle of the hall and shook with fear. It was Nniotora.
"Looks like you're all alone," he grinned triumphantly. "Looks like I get to kill you after all!"
(Oh boy…. Nniotora is back. LOL. Well thanks for reading so far. I'll update as soon as possible!)
