Chapter 4: Doctor

Miaka gasped audibly when she saw him. He had short fuchsia hair and wore a pair of gray squared glasses over his captivating, chocolate brown eyes. He stood about 6' 0" and had a slim, lean body, which Miaka couldn't help but notice, had tight clothes to prove it.

Seika glanced over at her friend and saw the look on her face. Miaka was simply mesmerized by the arrival of the arrancar. She cleared her throat and Miaka blushed before turning to Seika.

'Hey, Seika, who is that?' Miaka asked with excitement through their link.

'His name is Szayel Aporro Granz. He is the eighth espada. If you remember what I told you yesterday, you can easily tell, that because of his rank, he is the eighth strongest arrancar Sosuke Aizen has in his army. An easy way to remember their rank number would be in Spanish. In fact 'Espada', 'Hueco Mundo', and 'Las Noches' are all Spanish. Sosuke ranks his arrancar in Spanish, too. For instance, Nnoitra is the fifth espada, if you remember, and in Spanish his rank is 'quinta',' Seika replied.

Miaka nodded in understanding. 'So what is Szayel's rank in Spanish?'

'Octava,' Seika said.

' So eight in Spanish is octava? I thought eight was ocho.'

'It is for cardinal numbers. Their ranking is in ordinal, or more commonly known as numerical, order,' Seika explained.

'Oh, like first, second, and third place?'

'Yes, that is one way to describe it. That is how their ranks are set up.'

'Oh, ok, I get it now,' Miaka said and then looked back at Szayel. 'Who was that blue haired guy?'

Seika blushed a tad, but thankfully Miaka didn't see it, or she'd never hear the end of it. 'That was Grimmjow Jeagerjaques, the sexta espada, or in English, the sixth espada,' Seika replied.

'Wow, you really did read up on everybody didn't you?' Miaka asked.

'Of course. Someone has to do it,' Seika shrugged and then looked at Szayel. In his own way he was attractive, but not nearly half as much as Grimmjow.

"Ladies, this is your doctor while you are living in Hueco Mundo," Sosuke introduced the man as he stepped inside.

Szayel walked up to them and then looked them over as if trying to identify something.

Miaka felt a shiver pass up and down her spine as she felt his aura surrounded them. It intoxicated her senses and she struggled to keep herself from fainting.

'Miaka, you're drooling,' Seika said, looking at her from the corner of her eye.

'What? I am not!' Miaka said looking back at Seika.

'Yes, you are. And stop staring at him like that,' Seika said looking back at Szayel.

"Hello, ladies. My name is Szayel Aporro Granz, the eighth espada," the man introduced himself, smiling down at the two of them.

"Nice to meet you Szayel. My name is Seika," Seika smiled at him introducing herself before elbowing Miaka. " And this is my best friend….,"

"Miaka," Miaka replied.

"It's very nice to officially meet you two. Now if you'll please follow me," Szayel said and turned toward the door. He stopped a moment and looked at Seika over his shoulder. "Oh, and Seika?"

"Yes?" she asked as he walked back over to them.

He took a small bit of her hair and leaned down to look at her on her eye level. "You have a nice body," he said and then walked out the door.

Seika's cheeks flushed, but she quickly regained her composer. "That's not something you say to a lady!" she said and walked after him, Miaka close behind her.

Miaka caught up to Seika and whispered, "Where did that comment come from?"

" That's one of the guys that captured me. He ended up grabbing my legs," Seika replied quietly.

Miaka looked at her with a saddened look.

Seika caught it before it vanished from her friend's face. "Hey, it's not like he likes me!" she said. She was used to Miaka acting like this when a guy came on to her or a guy said something to her. She knew it made Miaka feel inferior to her, but Seika knew that guys looked at her too. Miaka was just too blind to seeing them because she would always make herself feel down.

"I know," Miaka replied.

"Miaka…"

Miaka looked at Seika when she heard her name being strained from her best friend's lips.

"We've been over this before," Seika said.

" Yeah, I know…..Ok, I'll stop moping!" Miaka said when she saw Seika's look. It was something Seika always did when she felt this way. She would utter kind words to cheer her up, and when she ignored Seika's words, Seika would say her name in a tone of voice that seemed to warn her, then she would give her a look of total anger, which Miaka didn't like to see on her friend's face at all. So in the end, Miaka would always have to stop 'pouting' or 'moping' as Seika always would always say, and feel better about herself. She knew Seika was right, deep down, but she just couldn't help but feel as if no guy would ever like her.

"Welcome to my lab," Szayel said once they reached their destination. He lead them to a room, where he told Seika to wait, while he took Miaka in another room.

Miaka looked back at Seika nervously before following Szayel.

"Remove your shirt, please," Szayel said as he looked over a piece of paper on a clipboard.
