Here is chapter three

There is a flash back and it will tell you when it begins and ends.

Shiro-"Hey"

Ichigo talking to Shiro- "hey"

Ichigo crouched low. Grimmjow and Ichigo have been looking for Nel for a while now. The people on the phone called back and gave them directions.

"Over here." Grimmjow pointed to a small opening.

Ichigo followed him quietly. They had yet to talk about what happened before Nel left or even after but all Ichigo knew was that Grimmjow didn't love him. He fell for something but it wasn't love or even a crush. Grimmjow hasn't really looked at him and Ichigo guessed he figured it out as well.

"Can you fit?" Grimmjow didn't even look back.

Ichigo sighed and pushed the man out of his way before crawling through the opening. It didn't take long for him to reach the other side. Ichigo grimaced the place brought back bad memories but he pushed them away. At the moment he had to find Nel.

Nel's POV

Nel screamed through her gag. She shouldn't have left home and now she was regretting it. Her blind fold was ripped off and she slowly opened her eyes. She was shocked to find Renji standing there.

"Oh surprised to see me? You see your brother was right all along about every last one of us." Renji lifted his arms wide and all of Nel's old boyfriends came into view. "We wanted to mess you up so that Grimmjow destroyed himself, but he scared us all off, but now it's different. If I hadn't met that fucking neko then it would still be about you."

"What?" Nel stared at him confused.

"You see my dad wanted to see if neko's could pass the rest of their lives off to one another and he found out they could. He found out that neko's could give their lives away, but what he really wanted to know if they could give them to humans and not only that but if we could use the lives like they do. We would be great living again and again after near death experiences, but the fucking little neko of yours got away and my father was found out!" Renji shouted.

Ichigo quietly slipped into the room. He hid behind some boxes as the large group of boys made their way to the door.

"Now not only is your brother here but that neko too and we want to have a little chat with him."

"NO!" Nel pulled against her restraints.

Once the door closed Nel cried. Her brother was going to die. A man walked over and Nel struggled to break free. He pulled out multiple needles and injected them into her arm. Nel screamed and thrashed around, but she wasn't able to break free. The man left and Ichigo ran over to her and began to pull the restraints.

"Why are you here?" Nel asked groggy.

"Your brother found a way in but only I could fit." When Nel was free she followed Ichigo to the exit.

Grimm's POV

Renji stood in front of Grimmjow.

"What? Where is Nel?"

"You'll have her soon. What I want is the neko." Renji held out his hand.

"Why Ichigo?"

"If I don't have him Grimmjow then I'll make your life a living hell." Renji growled.

"Well to bad I sent him away. Nel and I got in a fight because of him."

"Oh really?" Renji stepped closer. "You better be telling the truth because if not then you will regret it."

"What can you do?'

"You don't understand Grimmjow. If I don't have that neko there's no telling what will happen to Nel. We all wanted to get into her pants for a long time and if I don't get that neko then who's there to tell them no? They will rape her one by one over and over. She won't have enough time to call for help."

Grimmjow clutched his teeth. He looked at Renji's face trying to find anything that told him that he was lying.

"He's gone." Grimmjow hung his head. He knew what he had to do.

"Renji the girl escaped!" a guy came running out and Grimmjow turned and left.

"Don't come near us again Renji."

Grimmjow ran home he threw open the door and saw Ichigo crouch beside Nel.

"Grimm." Ichigo's eyes brightened up when he saw him. Grimmjow walked over and slapped him.

"This is all your fault!"

"Grimm!" Nel shouted.

"If I hadn't picked you up, if you had left instead of staying this wouldn't have happened!"

"Grimmjow I-" Ichigo held onto his hurt cheek.

"Get out Ichigo I don't ever want to see you again with in your five lives."

"Grimmjow don't! What if Renji finds him?"

"Shut up Nel if he hadn't been here this wouldn't have happened!" Ichigo crumbled to the floor as tears ran down his face.

"No if I had broken up with him-"

"Then what?"

"What if Ichigo wasn't here then Renji would have given me that pill!" Nel tried to sit up

"I would have made it home in time!"

Nel was going to yell back but she began coughing. Grimmjow went to her side and picked her up.

"Ichigo when I get back I want you gone." Grimmjow said coldly and walked out the door.

Ichigo sat there. 'He's right if I wasn't here none of this would have happened'

Ichigo slowly stood and made his was over to the door. When he opened it a gush of cold air hit him. Ichigo didn't bother wiping away the tears that fell instead he turned and walked away from the one place he thought he could call home.

Grimmjow sat in the stiff hospital chair. They just took Nel in a few moments ago. He didn't know what was happening.

"Are you Grimmjow?"

"Yes." Grimmjow stood up and looked at the doctor.

"You might want to sit down." Grimmjow gave him a confused look. "It appears that her body was injected with multiple drugs at a time and because her body isn't use to it she's having a hard time fighting it off."

"Will she be okay?"

"I'm sorry but we've done everything that we can do. If you want to see her then you can but I'm not sure how much long she can last."

Grimmjow followed the doctor then rushed to Nel's side. She looked weak and tired. Grimmjow gripped her hand and gave it a small squeeze, but she barely responded. Grimmjow felt his eyes water and he let his head drop onto her bed.

"I'm so sorry Nel. I tried to protect you but I only brought the thing that caused your death."

"Grimm." Grimmjow lifted his head to look at Nel.

"Hey." He ran his hand down her face. "How are you doing?"

"The doctor already told me Grimm." She smiled weakly. "You were right about Renji. I should have-" Nel began coughing.

"No don't worry." A tap one the door made Grimmjow turn away from his sister.

"Can I have a word with you?" Grimmjow nodded and walked over to the man.

"It seems like the boys that caused this have been caught." Grimmjow smiled a little. "But there's more. I got word that your parents have been in a plane crash. It was on the news a few minutes ago and they were naming off some passengers."

Grimmjow tuned the doctor out. He couldn't believe it. Everyone he loved was gone and only in one day. Grimmjow's back hit the wall and he slid down it. Tears ran down his face as his body shook.

"Here let's move you into a privet room." A nurse helped Grimmjow up and led him away.

Ichigo pulled the small jacket closer. When he had walked past a small park he stopped to sit on the bench and after a while a little old lady showed up. They didn't talk or even look at each other until she got up to leave.

"You look a little cold." She passed Ichigo a jacket before turning to leave. "Every heart breaks but they can always be fixed."

Ichigo watched her leave. He sighed he didn't know he looked that pitiful. Standing he began to walk again there really was no place for him to go unless he went to a pet shop. Ichigo walked slowly as he made his way into the shopping district. People were rushing everywhere some stopped to look at him for a moment until they were off again. Ichigo didn't know if he really wanted a new home. He stopped and sighed then looked at the TV that were beside him. They flashed products that people could buy though most didn't need them.

"Are you cold?" Ichigo looked at a girl she was standing in front of a small coffee shop. "You can come in if you want."

Ichigo shook his head. "No thanks."

"I'll buy you a coffee." She smiled. Ichigo paused then nodded.

They stepped inside and she sat Ichigo down at a small table in the back. She left quickly only to return with coffee. Ichigo had seen Grimmjow drink it before but he never tried it himself. Ichigo slowly sipped the drink when the news came on. He didn't pay much attention until he saw Renji.

"Can you turn that up a bit." The girl smiled and nodded.

"In other news a group of boys have been arrested for the attempted murder of Nelliel Jaegerjaquez. She is currently in critical condition. It also turns out that their parents were in the plane crash not too long ago. They are still looking for survivors."

"Well Mary I must say that must be hard on her brother. Not only to lose his parents but his sister."

Ichigo sucked in a breath. He hadn't thought Nel was that bad. "Thanks."

"You know them?" Ichigo stood to leave.

"They saved my life one time."

"Then you should find a way to thank them."

Ichigo stopped walking for a moment then smiled and left. He made his way over to the hospital.

"Um I'm here to see Nelliel Jaegerjaquez." Ichigo said quietly.

"What are you?" the receptionist looked at him.

"Family."

"She's in room 105."

Ichigo nodded and went to find the door. It didn't take long until he was standing outside the door. Pushing it open slightly he saw Nel sleeping. Her hair seemed to stand out more on the bed of white. Ichigo briskly made his way over to her.

"Nel I'm so sorry." He whispered.

"Ichigo." Nel's eyes cracked open.

"Yeah." Ichigo's eyes cast down.

"I'm sorry my brother kicked you out." She coughed. "Come here."

Ichigo crawled on her bed and curled against her. They stayed like that for a while. No one really bothered them.

"I'm going to die." Ichigo sat up with his eyes wide.

"No."

"Renji's friends did a number on me and my body can't fight back."

"No you aren't going to die you can't!"

"I need you to look after my brother even if he doesn't want you to."

"Nel you're going to live you can pull through." Ichigo cried he didn't want her to die. He had lost too many that were close to him.

They may have never spent any time together but Ichigo still couldn't stand seeing her die. Whether it was because he still loved Grimmjow.

"Ichigo please watch over him." Nel's breathing became shallower and her heart monitor dropped.

"Nel please don't!" Ichigo stared as the girl died.

Doctors rushed in and pulled Ichigo off to the side. He watched as they tried to bring her back but nothing seemed to work. Ichigo closed his eyes to shut the scene out.

"Ya know king you can save her."

"What who are you?"

"I'm just here to help you."

"Who are you!?"

"Calm down. Every neko has one of us. I guess you could say we're the ones who give your lives out and reserve them."

"What?"

"We can save her just give up one of your lives."

"But we can't give them to humans."

"No one ever said that. You can give your lives to anyone you love or care for. Give it a try."

"How? How do I do it?"

"Let me take over."

"…fine."

Ichigo's eyes opened and they glowed gold. He looked at Nel and something rushed through him. Ichigo watched as a small white ball that he knew too well floated over to Nel before disappearing into her body. Nothing changed. Her heart monitor still dropped and Ichigo hung his head. He knew it wouldn't have worked. Slowly the beeping got louder and more frequent. Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief when Nel opened her eyes and the tiredness left her body.

"But how?" the doctors were stunned.

Nel's eyes met Ichigo's and she knew what happened. Ichigo smiled and pulled his arms free from the nurse. He nodded at Nel before leaving.

Grimmjow sighed again. His friends came over to try and cheer him up but it wasn't working. Being at home didn't help.

"Come on Grimmjow she'll be okay." Starrk patted his back

"Well you didn't see what she looked like."

The house fell quiet no one dared to break the silence. A few moments passed everyone was getting uneasy until the phone rang. Everyone jumped and looked at the offending object. Grimmjow picked it up.

"Hello?"

"Ha yes Mr. Jaegerjaquez we have some good and bad news. Bad news first. They found your parents but they aren't in good conditions but we can still save them if they fight hard enough. As for your sister-" Grimmjow held his breath he knew she was gone he could feel it. "We don't know how it happened but she pulled through and is perfectly fine. We did have a bit of a scare but she's all better now. We suggest you come see her."

Grimmjow dropped the phone and ran to the door. He didn't care that he just left his friends behind. He didn't care about anything at the moment. His sister was alive. He parents were strong and would make it. Pushing the doors open he didn't wait to be told where to go instead he walked quickly to his sister's room. Opening the door Grimmjow had to resist the urge to cry when Nel looked at him and waved.

"Hey Grimm."

"You're okay." Grimmjow stumbled over to her.

"Yep the doctors said I would be fine." She paused for a moment then held out her arms.

"Oh thank god." Grimmjow hugged her and cried into her shoulder.

"They told me about mom and dad. They'll be fine they have someone watching over them."

"What?" Grimmjow pulled back, but Nel shook her head.

Ichigo slipped through the door silently. He watched as Grimmjow's parents laid asleep. Nel had told him that they were found and brought here. A doctor told Ichigo where he could find them. He was kind of happy that they still believed he was family. The doctor told him that he couldn't go into the room because they needed their rest.

Flash Back

"Ichigo they'll pull through they're strong." Nel smiled but Ichigo could see the sadness in it.

"I could heal them as well." Ichigo looked at her straight in the eye.

"But-"

"I have four lives left Nel I can heal them just to be safe." Nel sat there quietly then nodded

"Please just to be safe." Ichigo smiled and kissed her forehead.

"I'm not coming back after this."

"Why?" Nel held onto his arm.

"I've caused enough problems at least I can fix them."

"It's not your fault." Nel pouted.

"I know but I can't be around Grimmjow." Ichigo hugged her.

"You love him." The neko nodded. They stayed like that for a bit longer than Ichigo pulled away.

"Don't tell him I was here." Nel nodded through the tears.

"I'm sorry." Ichigo chuckled.

"Don't be." He patted her head and left.

Flash Back End

Ichigo stepped over to their beds.

"Shiro."

"Yeah?"

"Give them both a life as well."

"You sure?"

"Yeah. I want Grimmjow and Nel to be happy and they can't be if their parents die. I know Nel said they were strong but I want to be safe."

"You'll only have two left."

"So? Humans only have one." Shiro chuckled

"As you wish my king."

Ichigo's eyes glowed gold again as two soft blue lights came out of his body and sank into theirs. Ichigo waited until they opened their eyes before he left. He knew they were safe now.

There is one more chapter then it's done.
