The manuscript behind the reasonably popular doujinshi, Bleach Redux tells the story of what could have happened had Orihime pulled her head out of Ichigo's ass and saved Ulquiorra like she should have in the first place. NOTE: 3 very small lemons inter-spliced within the entire manuscript. I AM NOT going to change the rating just because of those few instances.

A portrayel of Inoue's time in Hueco Mundo and of the untold moments between she & the fourth Espada. "I was content in the simplicity of my emptiness," Ulquiorra revealed. "How is it that a powerless creature like you was able to abolish it so entirely?"

A mysterious intervention on Orihime's part changed the war's dynamic and ending, and it somehow resurrects Ulquiorra in the process. As the two grow closer in the living world, questions still remain, leaving Orihime unstable and confused. UlquiHime.

Ulquiorra must learn to live as a human in the world of the living, but can a hollow ever truely become human again? And will the Soul Society allow such a thing to go unpunished?

He resented her, he hated her for bringing him back into the life that he detested. Yet, the more he hated her, the stronger his lust grew. Post Ulquiorra death fic. Sexual scenes, but no explicit lemon.
