Drabble #22: Something

Don't know how you feel
You seem to keep it to yourself
Would you climb mountains, cross oceans, have to motivation
To show me that this just might be something real

It was nearly dark now… and the night had the stench of hollow hanging from it like bad perfume. She was out cold from the impact of the hollow's back hand but wasn't bleeding. Renji pulled her up towards his body and began to carry her towards his apartment, bridal style. Since he didn't know where the hell she lived it was the only option he had at the moment. Renji was thinking about the hollow that he just fought off and saw that if he was careless, even a little bit… if everything wasn't exactly the way he had just executed his attacks… both he and her could very well be dead right now…

What had happened tonight was something beyond him. What had made him come by this way tonight? What had made him want take this route to Urahara's? What made him jump in to save her… without thinking? And why did he feel a surge of anger like he actually cared for this mere mortal. She was nothing to him… right?
