Chapter 11

- - - - - - - - - -

"Kuroji...?"

"Who ya talkin' ta, King?"

Ichigo's eyes widened in shock. If his counter-part didn't remember his name, then what else did he forget? He had also noticed that he had called him 'King', and that made his stomach turn. It took ages to convince Kuroji to stop calling him that.

"If ya space out, I'll kill ya, King." said an eerie voice from behind the young shinigami. He turned fast enough to see Kuroji swing his zanpakuto, and get cut by it.

"What are ya doin' King? Ya ain't puttin' up much of a fight. An' your gaurd is down."

"What are you talking about! Why would I fight you Kuroji!"

"I ain't got a name, so stop talkin' ta me like I do."

"Wha-?"

Another slash from Kuroji was sent at Ichigo, who was able to dodge it. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. Never did he expect this to happen during the 12th division's studies. Ichigo had lost a part of himself, and he couldn't believe it.

"What happened Kuroji!"

"I though' I told ya: 'I ain't got a name'!"

Ichigo ducked under another swing, and jumped to another building. He knew he had to find Zangetsu, even though he didn't want to fight his hollow.

"I don't want to fight you, Kuroji!"

"King, you're too sof' ta rule this place."

Kuroji jumped next to Ichigo and cut open the shinigami's left arm. Ichigo flinched as the searing pain grew from his new injury.

- - - - - - - - - -

The hollow gathered another high concentration of reiatsu into his two fingers, and fired them at Kurotsuchi. He barely dodged it, and released a Soukatsui at his attacker. This attack hit the hollow, but the affected area quickly healed, leaving Kurotsuchi with almost no remaining spirit energy.

"Dammit." mumbled Kurotsuchi.

Ichigo took this as an opportunity, and charged at the weakened captain. He never made to him though. Nemu had jumped infront of him, to save Kurotsuchi. Her screams of pain were loud, and bone chilling. The hollow stopped were he was, and jumped back, with Nemu still in his mouth. He literally ripped her out, causing even more pain for the 12th squad assistant captain. Using shunpo, he vanished from the lab's area, and closer to the walls of Seireitei, with Nemu in his claws.

All present 6th, 11th, and 3rd divisions stood there dumb-struck at the sight. One of the strongest shinigami they had known was now a hollow. The shinigami that had beaten 2 captains, and most of the 11th squad, was now causing intentional destruction throughout the Seireitei.

"Renji."

"Hai, Kuchiki taicho?"

"Go after him, and bring him back; alive or dead."

"But, Kuchiki taicho. It's Ichigo!"

"It's a hollow."

"Kuchiki taicho!"

A death glare was aimed at Renji, and it shut him up. He nodded toward his superior, and flash stepped after the hollow that had taken Nemu.

- - - - - - - - - -

Ichigo and Kuroji were watching eachother, from about 10 meters away of one another. The shinigami held a look of shock and disappointment, while the hollow watched the shinigami with lust and hatred.

"Kuroji..."

The hollow appeared behind Ichigo and whacked the back of his head with the blunt side of his Zangetsu. Ichigo didn't react in time, which caused him to now be on the ground. Kuroji crouched next to the orange-haired boy, and turned him over, so his back was on the ground.

"... why... Kuroji?"

He looked down at the injured shinigami, and a scowl slowly grew on his face. Kuroji was getting madder with each time his counter-part called him his forgotten name. The paler of the two put his sword into the building, blade down. Both of his hands moved to the other's wrists.

"Ya know, I ain't likin' tha' name ya keep callin' me."

Ichigo tried to get up, and away from his hollow. Struggling caused Kuroji to lessen his scowl to a smirk. The boy (partially) underneath him didn't want to be near him, huh? He removed his left wrist from the boy's right, and slammed his fist into the shinigami's stomach. A sudden coughing fit erupted from Ichigo, small amounts of blood coming up through his mouth.

"Ya don't seem ta be enjoyin' my presence, King."

"Kuro.. ji... please..."

Another hard punch was landed into Ichigo's stomach. Choking back a yell, he shut his eyes. Seeing the other control his pain angered the hollow, so a few more punches found their way to different parts of Ichigo's body. Another one to the stomach, one to the face, one in his throat, one ever so close to his crotch, and a couple where he had sliced open the boy. Each of Kuroji's punches getting harder than the last.

After letting the boy squirm in pain for about 10 minutes, he violently pressed Ichigo's legs against the ground, and straddled him. Blood from Ichigo's earlier wounds slowly started to soak into the white shihakusho. Leaning closer to his face, his warm breath sending shivers of fear and pleasure down Ichigo's back. However, this Kuroji wouldn't get him without a fight. The shinigami started struggling again, though he knew it was futile.

- - - - - - - - - -

Renji was gaining on the hollow, who didn't seem to be trying too hard to loose his follower. The occasional glance back told Ichigo that he was still being pursued.

Using all his strength, Renji took one long shunpo step and appeared infront of the hollow. Unfortunately, one wide slash from his prey caused him to jump to the side, and made him loose track of the hollow for a second. That second was all the hollow needed to widen the gap between himself and Renji.

Within another five minutes, the hollow appeared near the Seireitei wall. Stopping only to blast a small hole in it with his cero, and jumping out. Sensing the reiatsu blast, Renji found the hole within a few minutes, and went through it. However, once outside the Seireitei, he could no longer sense his former friend's reiatsu.

"Shit, where'd that bastard go?"

He ran off in the forest, toward the nearest village of Rokongai.

- - - - - - - - - -

After undertaking another attempt at getting free, Ichigo tried to remove his counter-part. This only caused Kuroji to shift more of his weight from his feet to his ass, keeping Ichigo pinned.

"Dammit Kuroji! Let me go!"

"Tch, I don' think so, King."

The hollow leaned over, ripped off a large part of Ichigo's sleeve, slid the clothe off of his arm, and ripped that again, so it was more like a strip, not a circle. He then, with some difficulty, tied Ichigo's wrists together, tightly. Leaning onto the shinigami, laying his hands just under his back, he proceeded to lick the coughed up blood off of Ichigo's chin and neck.

"Kuroji!" he yelled as he tried to put more distance between himself and his captor. This only got him a punch in the side of his ribs.

"Shu' up, King."

Just as Ichigo was about to shoot a reply back, Kuroji had kissed him, and was violently exploring his mouth with his tongue. Every time Ichigo tried to push him out with his own tongue, Kuroji gave a hard bite, causing Ichigo to retreat.

Unannounced to Ichigo, who was too focused on getting Kuroji's tongue out of his mouth, his shirt had been ripped off – literally. The bruises from Kuroji's earlier assaults were already becoming visible, and hurt under his weight. Ichigo's counter-part started to bite his shoulder, and moved down the chest, and past the belly button. He stopped near the shinigami's pant line, the barrier preventing him from going farther down.

"Kuroji, stop god dammit!"

The hollow looked toward the boy, and a look of annoyance appeared on him face. He undid the tie to Ichigo's pants, and sent his fist right into his throat. Ichigo stopped all movements and thoughts, doing his best to get oxygen into his lungs. Taking advantage of Ichigo trying to breath, Kuroji tied the clothe around his mouth, and tied it firmly, so Ichigo couldn't untie it.

With the noise problem solved for Kuroji, he licked Ichigo's ear, biting it occasionally, and sucking on it inbetween. Moans came from Ichigo periodically, who couldn't seem to control his body from releasing the sounds. Kuroji sensed that Ichigo liked the way he was being treated, or at least some of the things he was doing to him.

Kuroji moved to almost every part of Ichigo's upper body, finding, and making mental notes of where the boy seemed to react the most. Once he made his first round, he returned to those that had made the shinigami moan. Taking his time with each, he felt the shinigami's body betray his mind, which made the hollow smirk.

"Ya know, ya ain't that hard ta please." said Kuroji, more to himself than Ichigo.

Ichigo's frown deepened, and his brows furrowed even more. This wasn't the Kuroji he'd allowed to indulge himself only days earlier. Before Kuroji could start his third round, Ichigo's will to free himself came back up. Squirming, trying to untie his bonds, using his legs in an attempt to remove the hollow from his body, anything he could think of at the time he did.

Kuroji started laughing from his position, and watched in fascination at the shinigami's attempts at freeing himself. He then remembered the spot that Ichigo made the most noise during his exploration. The hollow gently rubbed his head near Ichigo's ear, and started nibbling on the area of flesh under the it. All of the struggling ceased after the first couple of minutes, and they boy's body went lax. In an effort of lowering Ichigo's escape, Kuroji pulled his Zangetsu out of the building, and put it in-between Ichigo's hands and head, the sharp edge facing his head, as to keep him bound. He then continued on his exploitation of the orange-haired shinigami.

- - - - - - - - - -

Renji had searched the nearest villages, asking around if they'd seen a hollow, however, getting them to talk was a whole other matter. Convincing the Ryoka that he was there looking for a hollow, and not there to kick their asses around Rokongai was difficult. To his relief, he caught a kid who was running from the nearby forest. He stopped him, asked him if he'd seen Ichigo or Nemu, and described both of them. Raising a shaking hand, the boy pointed in the direction he came from, and ran to his house.

Renji followed the boy's directions, and found a shredded body, which belonged to Nemu. Fortunately, he remembered that Nemu wasn't a normal shinigami, and looked around for the konpaku pill. When he found it, he put the pill in his shirt, since he didn't really have anywhere else to put it, and lifted the shredded body. Renji headed back to Seireitei, with a frayed corpse in tow, slowly bringing Nemu back to Kurotsuchi.

He returned the body and pill to Kurotsuchi, and got reprimanded for taking so long. After his lecture, the 12th division captain took his daughter back to one of the lab rooms, and threw her on a table.

"Now get out of here, Abarai."

"Hai, Kurotsuchi taicho."

Renji went back to the 6th division office, where he gave his report to Byakuya.

"Thank you, Renji. Now I want you to work with Hisagi on bringing down Kurosaki Ichigo." Byakuya indicated Shuuhei near his desk. Shuuhei had agreed to go, since his curiosity about the boy had been there since he broke into Seireitei to rescue Rukia.

"Hai, Kuchiki taicho."

"I want you two to leave immediately."

"Hai." they both voiced in unison. The two assistant captains left the office, and went directly to the nearest Seireitei gate, the one Ichigo broke through.

Yeah, not a lot of talking in this chapter. More actions... teehee. Well, hopefully this chapter made up for those last two 'disturbing' chapters.

For some reason, this chapter feels a bit rushed, no matter what I do to it. Hope no one minds that.

Read and review, pwease.
