Still looking for someone to co author for me or be a beta reader. please guys i'm on my knees begging you all. And since you all don't all up and feel like helping co author it i would like some suggestion on pairings here. I need some arrancar pairings and some soul reaper pairings ichigo rukia ulquiorra and stark are all obviously taken. anyway here's the next chapter.

"Ha thats cute. You think your gonna beat me." Renji said with a smirk drawing out his zanpakto and taking a fighting stance.

Ulquiorra jumped back a bit and taking a fighting stance to face Renji. His adorable little face stayed cold and emotionless though he felt fear coursing through his veins. Fear was such a familiar feeling though one he had not felt often since he had met Starrk. Renji started running towards him and swung his zanpakto to attack the toddler who jumped to dodge it. Ulquiorra knew if he were to fight back he would draw the attention of all the other soul reapers and they would attack him before asking questions. Renji swung his sword towards the boy again this time managing to knock him off his feet. Ulquiorra landed flat on his back getting the wind knocked out of him. He pushed himself up struggling to regain oxygen as Renji came towards him. The red head used his foot to push the toddler back to the ground and holding him there. Ulquiorra felt tears well up in the corner of his eyes as the bigger male held his zanpakto to his neck.

"Any last words arrancar." he asked with a sneer looking down at the toddler who was close to tears. Hearing those words made a flash of memories appear in the little hollow's mind. Flashes of himself being held to the ground by other hollows or soul reapers about to beat him senseless and leave him to die. He had not learned how to use any of his hollow powers until he met Starrk and was taught them. He started struggling violently against the other kicking and clawing at the others leg as tears rolled down his face.

"GET OFF." He shouted as he struggled. "STARRK! HELP! HELP ME PLEASE!" He called for his mate the tears practically flooding his cheeks. Suddenly Rukia ran around the corner and came flying over kicking Renji in the face knocking him off the toddler. Ichigo was not far behind stopping when he saw Rukia standing on top of him and yelling at him while Ulquiorra scrambled up and into a corner pulling his little knees to his chest and sobbing into them. His little sobs racked his body causing him to shake almost violently. He wanted Starrk to come and save him, to take him back to Las Noches and fix him so he wouldn't be small afraid and valunrable anymore. It was difficult to control his emotions at the age 4 and he had yet to reach the age when he lost his emotions. He heard someone walk over to him and kneel down in front of him.

"Ulquiorra?" Asked Ichigo hesitantly not wanting to frighten the poor boy anymore. He may be a hollow but he looked so small and fragile in his current state. The toddler looked up fresh tears still pouring from his eyes. He pulled his legs closer and wedged himself further into the corner. Ichigo held out a hand to the toddler moving a bit closer.

"It's okay Ulquiorra. No one is going to hurt you now." Ichigo said softly using the same voice his mother would use with him when he was afraid. Ulquiorra hesitantly moved forward to the other crawling into Ichigo's arms closing his eyes and burring his head in the others shoulder and sobbing.

"They are going get me." He whimpered. "They are going to get me and beat me up." He sobbed and sniffled as Ichigo stood and walked away from Rukia and Renji.

"No one is going to get Ulquiorra. Your safe here." Ichigo said trying to calm the baby arrancar. "Come on lets go see Hanataro and see if Renji cause you any damage." he said going to the squad 4 barracks to find the wimpy male. Once they arrived at the barracks Ulquiorra had calmed down and was now just clinging to Ichigo and sniffling.

"Hey! Hanataro wait up!" Ichigo called seeing the little male. "I need you to do something for." he stated as he caught up with him. Hanataro turned and looked at Ichigo freezing when he saw the little arrancar.

"I-Ichigo! Why do you have one of the arrancars? And why is he so little?" he asked a bit frightened and curious.

"It's a long story. Could you just make sure he is okay? Renji attacked him and I think he might be hurt." Ichigo said as ulquiorra peaked out seeing the wimpy male. Hanataro nodded and moved closer to the child reaching a hand out hesitantly.

"Is it alright if I examine you little one? I will be careful." He said softly a smile on his face. Ulquiorra looked the over and gave a small nod deeming the other was not a threat. Hanataro looked the boy over and found the boy would have minimum bruising. After ichigo was satisfied that ulquiorra wasn't hurt he set the boy down and took his hand.

"You shouldn't run off like that ulquiorra." Ichigo scolded. Ulquiorra scowled at ichigo as he was scolded. He may be a child but no one ordered him around.

"I will do as I please. Besides i was playing with a pink haired girl." he huffed and turned to ignore ichigo when the pink haired girl came in on the back of a big man that was scary looking. "

"Look kenny! there he is! I told you I wasn't lying." Yachriu chirped. "Hey tear cheeks! Come meet kenny!" She called to her new friend. Ulquiorra hesitated seeing how much of a threat this man was but he had faith the pink haired girl wouldn't let him get hurt and ichigo was right there. He ran ove to her and stopped looking up with his blank face.

"My name is Ulquiorra I was espada number 3" he said with a tilt of his head. The big man knelt down in front of him and set yachiru down next to him. "Your short and adorable like yachiru now... Cool now you and her stay here i have business." He states and goes to ichigo and tries to pick a fight while yachiru sits and babbles about how strong and great kenny is. Ulquiorra goes on about stark and they both come to the decision that both of their protectors where strong and had some things in common. When rukia finally found him It was late in the day and he had been wandering around with the captain of squad 11 and his new friend.

"Glad to see you made friends Ukqu-chan but it's time to go." Come along." she cooed and carried the toddler all the back to the world of the living. He got stuck back in the dumb body and taken back to ichigo's house. He planned on sneaking out again once everyone was asleep.
