A/N: Last chapter of this short story! I hope you enjoy it .

Aizen. He caught us.

"Grimm" Ichigo gripped my hand tightly.

"Well what do we have here? Prince shouldn't you be defending your people against my army?" Aizen smirked and stepped closer. Closer towards my Ichi.

"We don't wish to fight." I simply said. Honestly there was no point in trying to run, there was no way for us to escape this time. He was going to kill us.

"I see..." His smirk grew and he took another step closer. "I can't say I didn't expect this. I've noticed a long time ago that our Grimm didn't pay as much attention to girls as he should have."

"Uncle, why do you and father have to fight? Why can you not settle this between the two of you instead of dragging the whole kingdom with you?" I kneeled in front of him, I had a slight hope I could at least rescue Ichi. "Please Sir allow Ichigo to flee."

Aizen cracked a laugh. "You are actually kneeling down in front of me? You? The mighty Prince Grimmjow that never listened to his father or uncle." Suddenly his eyes filled with anger, "How dare you mock me like that! You think I will EVER let this monstrosity go freely? So that it would infect other men?"

"Please I'm beginning you spare him." Tears started running down my cheeks, at this point I didn't care what was going to happen to me as long as Ichigo was safe.

"Get up." Aizen shouted at me. I lifted my face to look at him and all I could see was rage. "Let's make a deal. If that thing can beat me in a sword fight, I'll let you both live."

I instantly looked up at Ichigo. He hated violence, especially if he was involved in it. Grimmjow wasn't even sure if Ichigo could sword fight.

"Deal!" Ichigo said and quickly took my sword that was clipped to my belt.

"Ichigo NO! You cannot do this!" I pleaded him to stop but all he did was turn around and smile.

"It's okay Grimm, I have to try." I turned back towards Aizen, "I love you Grimm." I could tell he was crying. Whenever he tried to hide it he'd clench his fists and breathe heavier.

"I'm ready" Ichigo said and Aizen smirked.

"Let's go!" He ran towards Ichigo and swung his sword right at him.

Aizen's moves were so fast Ichigo could barely keep up. With even hit Ichigo received I flinched I couldn't endure watching this no more. Ichigo didn't have much strength anymore. Aizen plunged his sword forward and Ichigo was too slow. The sword went right through Ichigo's body. His scream ripped through my ears.

"ICHIGO!" I ran towards him but Aizen's guards grabbed me. "LET ME GO!" I screamed over and over again but they didn't move.

Ichigo looked back at me. His face was bruised, bleeding and full of tears. Yet he still smiled back at me, "I'm sorry Grimm" He whispered just before he collapsed to the ground.

"No no no no no " I kept repeating and emptiness filled my heart. He was gone. I lost everything.

"Let's go" Aizen clicked his fingers and his guards let me go .I ran to Ichigo. I held his head cradled in my arms as I cried. Why? Why can I not live happily for a moment? Why do I have to lose everything?

"I'll see you in battle?" Aizen laughed as he rode off with his army leaving me and Ichigo's lifeless body behind.

"Ichigo I love you." I whispered into his ear, "I'm so sorry I couldn't save you. I'm so sorry we couldn't escape." My tears couldn't stop. "I love you. I love you. I love you."

"Grimm." His hoarse voice called out. "Grimm."

I thought I was dreaming. I thought that I had died and that I've gone to heaven. Ichigo was alive. He coughed, "I ...love...you...too" He passed out.

He was alive. HE WAS ALIVE. HE WAS ALIVE AND WE WERE FREE.

"Stay strong Ichi, I'll take you home." I quickly bandaged his wound and went to find our horses that will take us to our new home far away from here.

I guess some stories do end with "they lived happily ever after." I just never thought I would happen to me.

I'll always love you Ichi.

The End!
