Chapter 2: Misplaced

Kiki wandered off on her own after the spontaneous meeting with Harribel and her gang. Turning down corridor after corrider, Kiki hoped to run into Grimmjow again. Having no memories of before and virturally knowing no one within this base, he was her best comfort.

She eventually had scurried down so many hallways, the little Arrancar found herself lost.

"Oh, well, don't panic. Everything's okay," Kiki took a breathe to relax her nerves.

With an air of confidence, she spun on her heel to re trace her steps only to smack into a hard object.

"Gah!" Kiki fell to the floor from the impact.

'Did I hit the wall?'

She peeked out through her sandy bangs to see a tall slim figure glaring down at her.

The man had long straight black hair that covered a side of his narrow face, leaving the one snake like eye to stare down. His outfit was extremely odd. The uniform everyone wore here was obiviously morphed to fit his tastes. The shirt had a spoon shape to the hood and came down openly to his waist.

This unknown freak gave Kiki a sneer. "Aren't you Grimmjow's little toy? What the hell are you doing sneaking around?"

Kiki flinched back from his harsh voice. She didn't like this man.

Realization dawned on his features. "Aw, that's it! You're lost aren't you, kitten?"

Holding back her shudder, Kiki nodded. "Y-Yes,"

His kind facade vanished as quick as his hand came around Kiki's neck. He slammed her into the wall behind her and laughed.

"Now I wonder why Aizen-sama would go through all the trouble to bring you here only to have you be weak as a newborn. Are you poking your nose where it doesn't belong, bitch?"

Kiki gave a raspy reply. "N-No, I-I-I wouldn't...!"

"Positive?" His grip grew tighter on her throat. "I'd hate to find out you're lying." The man's tongue snaked out of his mouth, showing Kiki his rank.

Number 5 was tattooed into the pink flesh.

Horror shook Kiki's spine. "P-Please...I..didn't do...anything!"

The fifth Arrancar chuckled. "Sorry are we, Kitten?"

She shook her head vigorously.

"I can't hear you." He taunted, making his hold stronger.

"Ah!"

"Nnoitra, get your flithly hands off her!" A familiar growl warned.

"If it isn't the King of the Jungle..." The man, now Nnoitra, withdrew his slender hand.

Kiki dropped to the ground with a yelp.

Grimmjow's eyes narrowed with anger at the the Espada.

"I should cut off an arm of yours for touching her." He spat, making his way over to them.

"I was just having fun with the new girl. Weren't we having fun, Kiki-chan?" He smiled widely at her, his top row of teeth taking over the bottom.

"When attacking a defenseless girl becomes fun, I'll let ya know." Grimmjow shoved Nnoitra out of his way for him to kneel down to Kiki.

"You all right?" He asked, cocking his head to the side.

Kiki giggled at his expression. It reminded her of a confused cat.

Grimmjow sighed from relief and took her hand in his. "Yeah, you're okay."

Nnoitra snorted from the side. "Soft spot for the noob?"

In a blurr of blue, Grimmjow had Kiki behind him and Pantera dangerously nestled belew Nnoitra's throat.

"Piss off, bug."

Kiki was now located back in Grimmjow's courters. He made her stay put after he checked her over in case any damage Nnoitra may have caused. On his way out, he also warned her about walking around the place.

She might run into people she might not like.

As she waited for Grimmjow's return, Kiki thought on what Nnoitra had said.

Aizen brought her to this place but from where? And why?

He called her weak but deep down, Kiki knew he was lying.

There was a hum of enegry hidden in her soul. She could feel it. But she didn't have anyway of harnessing it. Grimmjow and the others had a sword.

Kiki glanced around the pretty much barren room. She didn't see anything for her.

The girl huffed in frustration and gripped her hair. This wasn't fair!

"Hey, hey, what's with the dramatic hair pulling? Am I gettin' on your nerves that quick?"

Grimmjow had re entered the room without her knowing. A wildfire blush flared across her face. "N-no, you're fine."

"I know am, thanks." He winked at her.

"That's not what I meant!" Although that's what I am thinking...

"Okay, okay, settle down. Here," He placed a steam bun down next her on the bed.

"It's not much but better than nothin'." Grimmjow's eyes were far away. Remembering back when he had nothing. He had to fight to survive.

Kiki coughed to regain his attention.

"Ah, I space out? Right..." He stiffly sat down next to her with his own bun.

After taking two huge bites of his, Grimmjow noticed she hadn't touched hers.

"Eat, or I'll force it down your throat." He teased but his tone didn't excately carry it.

Kiki's face looked like someone smacked her in the back of the head and she took a portion off. She chewed and swallowed as if against her will.

"What it taste bad?"

"No, just hot..." She panted.

I feel like an ass...

The Sexta looked away embarrassingly.

Minutes ticked by and the pair finished their steamed meals. A few moments of silence unsettled Grimmjow so with a grunt, he got off the bed to undress.

"Ohmygod, what are you doing?!" Kiki squeaked as he started to remove his shirt.

"Um, getting ready for sleep?" He nudged his head to the window, the sun sinking below the sand.

"Oh..."

"We'll keep it clean, girly." He smirked, kicking off his sandles and obi.

Next his hands went to his waist to untie his sword. Just as he went to set it by the bed, Kiki asked a question.

"Um, why do I not have a weapon but everybody else does?"

Grimmjow froze in his spot. He expected the question sooner or later but he guessed her run in with Nnoitra pushed that along.

"Uh, you need to see the Doc and then you'll get one." He lied through his teeth. Tomorrow morning Kiki was to report back to Granz.

"Really? It's that simple?"

No.

"Yes." He wasn't sure if Granz would give Kiki back her Zanpak-to or give her another sword. After all, she was an Espada now.

"That's good, I was getting kinda worried."

Now he was interested. "Hm? Why?"

Kiki looked sad as she spoke. "Because I feel wrong here. I don't know who I am. Where I came from. Nothing. But I feel this energy inside me. So, I know I am not weak like Nnoitra said. Yet, I am neither endowed with a number or weapon. I feel misplaced."

Grimmjow set his jaw firmly and took her chin between his fingers. "Don't you dare say that. Never listen to that nasty ass insect! I feel your power; you are strong. You'll see it one day, I swear. But don't feel like that. You belong here..."

Grimmjow knew in the back of his mind how it was to be under estimated. It was fucking humiliating!

Kiki's eyes shimmered with tears. Her feelings toward the Sexta growing firmer. She took hold of Grimmjow's large hand and placed it on her cheek.

"Thank you,"

Fox: Hmm, sparks going between Grimmjow and Kiki? Your thoughts? *dodges knives and Kenpachi plushies.* Yes, I do remember it is Kenpachi and Kiki but at the moment I feel Grimmjow needs a little love. Don't worry loves, it'll turn out good ;3 Leave me with your awesomeness and I'll see ya next chappie!
