Grimmjow stared at the lit cigarette in his hand. He was perplexed because the box said DANGEROUS while it tasted not too bad. He turned to Tatski who was smoking. 'She looks like she really enjoys it.' He took another puff, 'I never thought she would be the Smokin' type. Oh well.'
Tatski noticed him staring at her, "What?"
"I was just wondering," his eyes looking her over again, "you said that this was the best time for a smoke?"
"Well yeah, everyone that smokes does it afterwards.", she said laying down on her couch.
Grimmjow sighs, "But I thought-"
"No everyone smokes after eating!", she said moving so he could sit next to her.
Silence.
Tatski closed her eyes to take another puff of her cigarette, but Grimmjow had other plans. He grabbed her hands and forced them above her head. She was surprised at first, but her surprised face slowly turned into a sly smile. He bent forward and nibbled on her ear, then slowly ran his hands up her sides stopping at the top of her shirt. He undid the first button, then the second, then 'KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK'
Grimmjow gritted his teeth, "Damn it! I'll kill whoever's on the other side.", he made his way to the door.
When he got there Grimmjow yanked the door open, "Who the hell is it!"
"Ulquiorra Schiffer and Orihime Inoue." Answered a calm voice.
'Damn why him? Why NOW!', "Come in," he turns and yells, "Orihime's here with a freak carrying her!"

Bat-Ulqui hit the ground causing a small crater to form. He stood up easily enough even though he was missing his left leg. He was uncertain if he could win. The Aizen he now faced was, if possible, more powerful than the one that held the Hōgyoku. There fight had been intense from the beginning and was slowly wearing him down. Aizen on the other hand didn't look at all phased.
Ulquiorra was about to engage him again when a familiar feeling came over him. After a few moments his eyes widened with fear. Fear not for himself, but for the woman that once had him changed him. He was dying, and he knew it. He formed his lance one more time and charged. They collided once again, but it was different Ulquiorra was in a hurry to end it. Aizen wasn't.
\/\/\/\/
Tatski tried to pull Orihime from his hand. She would have pulled it off too If Orihime didn't hold onto him so strongly. When she finally was able to pry her off of Ulquiorra she now had the responsibility of consoling her sobbing best friend. Tatski looked at Ulquiorra, but his face revealed nothing. His shirt however revealed quite a lot. His shirt was stained form Orihime's tears. 'He let her cry on him?'
She motioned to the couch, " Sit.", he did, "Now tell me what happened.
As Ulquiorra went over what had happened Tatski had to stop him every now and again when Orihime would sob louder than she was already. At the end of his explanation of what had happened Tatski looked down on Orihime's sobbing form and slowly rubbed her back. She was trying, unsuccessfully, to make her feel better.
After a few minutes of silence Ulquiorra stood, "I'm leaving."
He went to leave but was stopped when Orihime caught his wrist, "Please stay."
Her voice was so miserable that even Ulquiorra had some pity on the girl, enough to sit back down. When he did Orihime wrestled away from Tatski to go to Ulquiorra. She went from one side of the couch to the other. He was speechless again for once again he had a girl crying on him. So in the end he only ended up mimicking what Tatski had done, and ran his hand up and down her back. This simple action caused her to shiver.
Grimmjow who had stayed silent for the display turned to ask Ulquiorra a question, "How did you know where this place was, you didn't mention how you found out?"
Ulquiorra's sad stare turned into a glare when he turned to answer, "I was able to get it out of her before she got this bad," motioning to Orihime.
Orihime hearing his words clung tighter to him in an attempt to stop the tears from making Ulquiorra decide to leave, "I-I-I'm s-s-sorry", and she rubbed her head against his shirt.

Aizen smiled as he watched Bat-Ulqui struggle to keep up. He was panting while Aizen was having the time of his life.
As Ulquiorra stood up again he looked for Aizen, but he was nowhere to be seen. He turned in time to have Aizen's blade come down cutting off his left horn and arm. Ulquiorra was losing and he knew it. He was getting desperate; he couldn't allow Aizen to survive to go after his 'charge'
Ulquiorra went after Aizen with his lance, and allowed Aizen to stab him through the heart so he could get close enough. He stuck his lance into his own body and grabbed the end, and before Aizen could pull away he combined his lance's destructive power with that of his…. "Cero Oscuras"
Aizen's eyes widened as the explosion destroyed anything and everything in a 1000 mile range.
Ulquiorra stood there alone. He looked around to see Aizen slowly, very slowly get up. Aizen was hurt badly. He was missing his arms.
Aizen coughed up some blood, "Well….this was not how I pictured our reunion…"
"Still alive?", Ulquiorra asked sarcastically, for him anyway.
"Oh yes.", coughs blood, "but are you?", Aizen smiled.
Ulquiorra's eyes widened as he watched his hands start to turn to dust. 'Again I fail'
"What's wrong Ulquiorra? Sad to know you'll never see that poor girl again?", Aizen mocked.
Ulquiorra couldn't do anything; he simply stared at Aizen until the wind took his body, now a pile of dust on the floor, away with a gust. 'Damn'
