AN: Hehe… Hey guys…. Ok I'm sorry for not updating my story but it's been a very hectic summer for me! Between work and moving in/starting college I barely had any time to work on my story! Also my laptop broke so I have to go to the library until I can get it fixed so updates will be slow! Again I apologize and I promise I will try my best to balance out some sort of schedule for my story! Also I have an announcement. Lately I've become interested in the Rosario Vampire universe and there are some good stories that unfortunately have not been updated so I decided to start my own. I may even have the first chapter up after I post this chapter here ^^; Now that doesn't mean that I'll be throwing this story to the back burner, it means I'll be working on both stories in conjecture. Well I think that's it so here I'll end my semi-long rant and begin the story!

*Yawn*

"Mou~ It's a beautiful- huh?" There was something… squishy on my chest. Looking down I was greeted with a mop of pink hair on my chest. Now that I think about it I feel extra weight on my body. Looking down past the pink hair what I see can only be described as every guy's dream. A curvy naked woman lying on my nearly just as naked body. My brain stopped working and I swear my boxer's felt like they were about to explode. Working on autopilot my hand went to one of the mounds being squished between our bodies. My hand gave the mound a gentle squeeze eliciting a moan from the girl on top of me. The girl started to stir before opening her eyes slowly. She blinked a couple times before sitting up. Damn near straddling me. She gave a cute yawn while stretching. Thank Kami her hair covered her breast or I don't think I'd have been able to control my hormones. That didn't stop the full body blush I had from seeing her naked body.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I somehow slipped out from under her and wildly threw some pants and a shirt on to cover myself and turned away to give her some privacy and to hide the tent in my pants. "La-la-la-Lala-chan what the hell are you do-doing in my be-be-bed?! And naked at that?!"

"Mou~ to loud Ulquiorra-kuuun- Ara? Rito-kun? How'd I end up here? Anyway Goodmorning Rito-kun!" Now it made sense...He may be the most polite, kind, and quiet person in all of Japan but if you get on his bad side then prepare to be humiliated, embarrassed, or destroyed as Ulquiorra knows how to get you in the worst way possible no matter who, or where you are. I knew that joke would come back to bite me in the ass. I left the room and quickly returned with one of my mom's gowns and gave it to Lala so she can get dressed. I then went to get ready for school. After getting my school clothes on I made my way downstairs to see Mikan already giving out plates for everyone to eat.

"Morning Mikan~ Mm mm is breakfast ready?" Hearing my voice Looked up to see me with a huge grin on my face with one hand rubbing my stomach in circles showing how the smell of food was making my body react. Mikan scoffed playfully at me and gave me a triumphant smirk, complete with one hand placed on her hip, knowing that I was putty in her hands as long as her cooking was involved, unless she had some blackmail on me that is.

"Yeah, yeah. Take a seat and eat while I go change and see if I can find Ulquiorra-kun… I think he slipped out on us again." I simply nodded in understanding, as it wasn't a shock to hear that Ulquiorra wasn't in the house right now. He had either gone home to get ready or he was out training again. I was about to tell Mikan that he was probably out back when our front door opened and speak of the devil, Ulquiorra walked in wearing grey sweat pants and a white T-shirt that was soaked and clinging to his skin. I smirked to myself when I noticed Mikan's face light up like a Christmas tree before she literally ran upstairs to get ready. Seeing her run away I couldn't help myself from falling back onto the floor holding my gut, and roar in laughter. Even if I was distracted I could practically feel Ulquiorra's confused expression. After a minute of dying of laughter I was able to compose myself and sit back up to see Ulquiorra calmly eating the food Mikan had prepared. I chuckled a little and began eating the delicious food.

"Yoo-hoo Rito-kun~ , Ulquiorra-kun~" I heard a cheerful voice call out to us nearby so I turned to see Lala still wearing my mother's nightgown that just seemed to outline her curve-NO BAD RITO! I could feel the heat spread across my face before turning my attention back to my food. I glanced up at Ulquiorra right across from me just to see him calmly nod towards Lala in greeting. Sometimes I envy how Ulquiorra can always stay in control of any situation. I want to be as strong as he is someday. As if he felt my stare on his person Ulquiorra glanced at me and I simply ducked my attention down toward my food. At some point during the comfortable silence Lala and Mikan joined us in eating the breakfast.

~P.O.V switch: 3rd person~

After everyone had finished breakfast they were preparing to leave when Rito and Mikan noticed Lala's confused look before panic overcame the two. How could they forget that Lala had nowhere to go and that leaving her to her own devices would more than likely end with Sainan city erupting in a shower of food. Rito and Mikan looked at each other in panic before spinning around on poor Lala who jumped back slightly from the intensity of their stare towards her. Before either sibling could pounce on the poor girl and begin pinning down some rules Ulquiorra's calm voice broke the tension.

"Deviluke-san it would be in your best interest to follow us to school." Everyone turned to see Ulquiorra leaning against the doorframe with his school bag slung over his shoulder and his right hand in his pocket. His glasses caught the glare of the morning sunlight, effectively obscuring his orbs from their view.

"Eh? Ulquiorra you can- What's school?" Rito began to speak incredulously to his friend before he was cut off by Lala's seemingly innocent question. The siblings just stared at her disbelievingly unable to form the answer to what should be common knowledge.

"School is where children from the age of 5 or 4 in some cases to the age of 16-20 go to for education… Seeing as you are a princess I suppose you've been taught by personal teachers for your life." Ulquiorra decided to shine light on the poor naive girl. Lala's confused expression did a 180 as she beamed in understanding before she nodded now understanding at least one similarity between her species and the humans of this planet. Ulquiorra simply nodded before telling her to have her robot copy Mikan's school uniform and follow them. Ulquiorra turned to walk out when a bright light shined brightly behind him and Rito flew past him with a trail of blood following the airborne boy. Ulquiorra silently thanked his excellent timing as he knew the woman was only doing this to get a reaction out of Rito and while he wouldn't outwardly admit it he didn't fare much better himself although he was 1000x better at hiding it than his emotion driven friend.

A few minutes later the quartet could be seen walking towards the school building. Rito, Mikan, and Lala talking about menial things animatedly in front of Ulquiorra while he simply admired the weather as the cool wind brushed against his skin, his hair flowing softly as it dances with the wind. Ulquiorra would have been content in continuing his thought process if he wasn't interrupted by the soft voice of one of their friends protruding its way into his hearing range.

"Ah… Goodmorning everyone.." Everyone turned their head, or eyes in Ulquiorra's case, towards the voice to see that it's Sairenji-chan. Mikan greeted the girl with enthusiasm while Rito turned as red as a tomato and shyly greeted her. Ulquiorra merely nodded at her but everyone knew that was just his way of greeting others.

"Hi there, my names Lala~! Nice to meet you." Lala's cheerful cry slightly startled the girl before she brightly smiled at the cheerful female. She extended her hand and introduced herself but in their short time in knowing the alien girl they knew she wasn't exactly….tactful which brought no surprise to anyone but the victim when Lala enveloped sairenji in a hug. Ulquiorra easily removed Lala off of the girl while Rito needed a moment to have his brain turn back on as it was overloaded by not-so-PG thoughts. Mikan sighed exasperatedly, at her brother or Lala no one knew, before telling everyone that she'd catch up with them later when she saw some friends from her own homeroom walk by and went to catch up with them. Everyone said bye in their own way before they continued walking towards the school building. Once they reached the gate Ulquiorra told Rito and Haruna that he'll go register Lala before going to homeroom. Ulquiorra placed a hand on Lala's shoulder which brought a light blush to her cheeks before they disappeared in a sonido. Ulquiorra only did this as to avoid Lala being overwhelmed by this school's male populace. Rito and Haruna merely blinked knowing that Ulquiorra could be inhumanly fast before walking to class, surprisingly able to keep a normal conversation between each other without Rito stumbling around like an idiot.

With Lala and Ulquiorra: Ulquiorra P.O.V.

I led Deviluke-san into the principal's office. I was relieved that no one had seen us yet. I went up to Namase-san, our principal's secretary; the only one who seemed to be able to keep our perverted principle in line, and asked if he was in. She didn't have to look to see who asked the question as she knew that I was the only male in the school who could sound impassive in her presence as any other would succumb to a bumbling idiot as he tried to wipe the drool from his chin. Namase-san clicked on her phone to the principal's office and told him that he had visitor's, after telling him I was his visitor he authorized my entrance. I turned to Deviluke-san and signaled for her to follow. The office was dimly lit with the curtains covering the window were closed together. A candle sat, lit, on the principal's desk only giving us enough light to see the bottom portion of his face along with his hands folded as if expectantly waiting for us to explain our presence. I nodded once and stepped forward.

"Kocho-sensei(principal), I am here to request the registration of this woman behind me. Her name is Lala Deviluke-san and she recently moved here to sainan city. During her move her registration papers for school were lost and her parents could not make it to have her sign up." I turn my gaze to Deviluke-san and signal her to step forward. I can tell from her posture that she was nervous in the presence of the principal. This thought brought a mental image of myself scoffing in annoyance seeing as that would all change in 5...4...3..2…

"WOOOHOOO My My Ulquiorra-kun why didn't you say your friend was so cute! She even has our school uniform so of course she can attend school here!" The dimly lit room seemed to illuminate with life as the lights turned on. I looked behind me to see Namase-san flick on the light switch with a deadpan expression on her face. I blinked owlishly before reaching my left arm out in front of Deviluke-san to catch our principal before he could do anything perverted to the girl.

P.O.V. Switch! 3rd Person P.O.V.

Now that the lights were on Lala was able to get a good look at… The principal who was suddenly too close for comfort. She also noticed the he was suspended off of Ulquiorra's hand which had a grip on the back of his purple suit. Lala also noticed the principal was quite small for an adult, similar to the size of a child who looked like he could use a couple trips to the gym. The principal was bald at the top of his head and his black hair seemed to spike on the sides like devil horns. Lala took an unconscious step backwards then a step to the side to hide behind Ulquiorra. She had dealt with her fair share of perverts seeing as she knew that to the standards of most that she was a beauty with a good looking body. The principal just creeped her out more than some for some reason.

"Thank you Kocho-sensei, that is all we came for. I will be back later to work out her schedule . Now if you'll excuse us." Ulquiorra spoke calmly before dropping the perverted man on his stomach. He turned and walked out of the room with Lala almost instantly following behind. Ulquiorra calmly walked to his homeroom with his hands in his pockets as Lala seemed to be taking in her surroundings. Her innocent amazement with the school unknowingly brought a ghost of a smile to Ulquiorra's face as he couldn't help but recall a similar situation.

Hado #106: Furashubakku!(1)

"Aaaahhhnn~! It's so beautiful!" Two people, and a pure white dog with bone-like armor, can be seen walking through the sandy field of Los Noches. A female with fair skin tone fiery orange hair reaching down her back wearing a white long coat with two coattails and a long white dress-like skirt and black shoes. Her body was more mature in most aspects and she seemed to be of average height for most females. She was accompanied by a male wearing a similar outfit his skin tone was pale white/grey-ish skin. Two teal tear like streaks cascade from the male's eyes to his chin. He has fairly short, messy black hair, Part of his bangs falls between his eyes. Half of a white helmet with a horn protruding from the top side was placed on top of the right side of his head. The male seemed to be calmly walking a few steps behind the woman who was bubbly skipping around with the dog following just as energetically as the woman.

"Ne, Ulqui-kun isn't the sky beautiful?" Hearing the woman speak to him Ulquiorra unconsciously looked up to the artificial sky of Los Noches. Knowing that the woman knew it was not a real sky Ulquiorra allowed a confused frown to adorn his features.

"Woman, how can you find yourself intrigued by something as menial… as this artificial sky?" Ulquiorra asked curiously as he found himself more interested in the way humans work. Seeing as the woman was exuding a warm reiatsu that washed over Ulquiorra but he found himself not wanting to brush the reiatsu away. The next thing he knew the woman was invading his personal space. A frown adorning her features that made her seem more… adorable he believed the word was, then threatening.

"Mou~! Ulqui-kun how many times do I have to remind you my name is Orihime, say it with me OR-I-HI-ME." Ulquiorra could only blink as he had not expected her to be so personal with someone who could be considered her prisoner, Being the epitome of nothingness that he was he showed no outward expression as he used his index finger to gently push the girl away from his personal space.

A sigh could be heard from his person as he brushed his bang back in an attempt to keep it in place for once. Instead it fell right back onto the middle of his forehead. "If that is what you wish… Orihime… but you still have not answered my question?" He was expecting a lot of things for a response from the woman but what she did actually made his eyes widen in shock. The woman gave him a small smile that seemed to illuminate even brighter than the light from the fake sky itself before enveloping him in a hug. Something was off. He… he felt a warmth that he can say he hasn't felt since before his ascension.

Hado 107: Furashubakku-endou!(2)

Women, such complex creatures. Seeing Lala's innocent features brought a small, painful smile to Ulquiorra's features as he was reminded of the woman who showed him what a heart was. The smile disappeared almost instantly as Ulquiorra felt the aura's of the others as they approached the homeroom. Ulquiorra stepped in front of Lala, and told her to wait until he gave her the signal.

"Excuse me for my tardiness sensei. I was speaking to Kocho-sensei about the matter of the new student." The teacher stared at Ulquiorra for a second before nodding his head in understanding seeing as Ulquiorra was his prized student who could do no wrong.

"Hai, Hai I will allow it this time Ulquiorra-kun, but please do not try to make this a habit. Now you may go take your seat while I let our new student in." The teacher brightly stated to the boy who simply nodded and went to go take his seat in the back motioning for Lala to enter with his hand that was obscured from everyone's vision. The second Lala walked in all hell broke loose.

"WOOOOO SHE'S A HOTTIE!" "HOLY SHIT WHO IS THAT?" "I DON'T KNOW BUT I WANT TO MARRY HER!" "SHE'S SO HOT SHE HAS TO BECOME MY GIRLFRIEND!" "DON'T YOU ALREADY HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?! BACK OFF SHE'S MINE!" Were some of the many shouts by the hormone crazed guys in the classroom. Try, try as he may the teacher was unable to calm the rambunctious males. He looked around until he made eye contact with Ulquiorra and gave the boy the pitiful version of the puppy dog eyes. Ulquiorra simply sighed before unleashing a wave of reiatsu aimed at the rowdy bunch of boys stopping them cold.

"You forget that this is an institution for learning. I suggest you calm yourselves down to an appropriate and tolerable level unless you wish to become my newest training dummy." Everyone, even Lala and the teacher, shivered in fear as they, except Lala, remembered Ulquiorra's last training dummy. Poor Ichinose. All the males sat in their seats at speeds comparable to Ulquiorra's sonido with their backs straight and cold sweat dripping down their faces.

"Ah…. Thank you Ulquiorra-kun… N-Now then would you please introduce yourself miss..?" The teacher began to speak nervously before composing himself and turning to Lala. This seemingly snapped Lala out of her own daze as she stepped forward and bowed slightly before exclaiming in excitement.

"Ohayo Minasan! My name is Lala Deviluke. I'll be in this class from now on so please take care of me!" Dead silence. Everyone was silent as it seemed the boys were restraining themselves out of sheer power of will to avoid incurring the wrath of Ulquiorra who simply turned his head to stare out the wind watching as a bird previously perched on the window seal flew up high into the sky. Ulquiorra's gaze followed the bird before he heard a loud grunt and a chair fall over followed by two thumps on the floor. Knowing the direction of where the sound came from Ulquiorra simply let out a soft sigh before turning his head to see Lala on top of Rito hugging the boy's head into her chest as she exclaimed loudly on how she was the boy's fiance. Ulquiorra simply shook his head as he decided to allow Rito, who was looking at him desperately for help, to handle the situation for himself knowing that all hell was about to break loose. He closed his eyes and counted down from 5, during this a lot happened from what he could hear, when he opened his eyes he saw the room was missing all of its male populace, even the teacher, and one pink haired woman.

"Mou~ Those guys… always thinking with their lower brain.." Ulquiorra glanced behind him to see Risa and Mio behind him with their arms folded over their generously sized chest, both wearing a pout that made Ulquiorra mentally smirk in amusement at. it had been Mio who spoke and Risa who merely grunted her agreement. Ulquiorra stood up to go save Rito from this mess when he felt his arms get enveloped in two sets of breasts. He hadn't even need to look to see who had attached themselves to his arms as he continued his way out of the room. He felt a presence behind him who's aura simply screamed worry. He gazed over his shoulder to see Haruna trailing behind him, her expression easy to read as it matched her aura. Ulquiorra gave the poor girl a nod which seemed to ease her worry as she gave the boy a soft smile in thanks.

"RIIIIITTTTTTOOOOOOO~ GET BACK HERE YOU TRAITOR ! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GO?!" The shouts from the obnoxious boys brought a sweatdrop to the three females and caused Ulquiorra to sigh before he noticed Lala, and Rito's signature near the gymnasium. He easily adjusted their path towards where he felt their energy, none of the girls questioned why he was heading that way as they fully trusted Ulquiorra. As they got closer Ulquiorra had a sudden feeling that things were about to get awkward. He was about to turn to avoid the awkward confrontation when the others heard a loud crash on the other side of the doors. Ulquiorra only sighed when the girls ran to see what was going on. When they got there they found Rito with his face under Lala's, who was dazed from the fall, skirt. The bright blush on Lala's face didn't help the situation at all as the girls let out a loud shriek and proceeded to beat the now unconscious boy. Ulquiorra could only sigh at the poor boy's luck, or lack thereof.

~Later that day After school, Yuuki home:

3rd Person P.O.V.~

"Ahhh… Today was a looong day. My back is still killing me~!" Rito moaned in pain as he layed on his stomach on the couch with an ice bag placed on his back. Lala had the decency to laugh nervously, and scratched the back of her head with an embarrassed blush adorning her features before she bowed lowly and profusely apologized for everything that happened today.

"Naaah, Lala you don't need to apologize to this idiot for his clumsiness. He'll be fine by tomorrow, he may not look like it but he heals pretty fast." The irritated voice of Mikan broke Lala out of her funk as Rito merely grunted his agreement which caused Lala to perk up and tackle Mikan in a tight hug. Rito looking at this couldn't help but smile softly at the two as they laughed while Mikan gently pushed Lala off of her. Lala seemed to bring more energy to the house that seemed to make it more bearable to be there whenever their parents or Ulquiorra were unable to be with them. This brought a frown to Rito's face as it brought to question why his parents couldn't have normal jobs so they could spend more time with their children. His mom Ringo worked as a fashion designer and traveled all around the world while their father was a mangaka artist who spent most of the day and night to get his manuscript done by the deadline so seeing him was rare.

It wasn't all that bad seeing as while Ulquiorra was the quiet one of their group having him around made others feel like they could do anything as long as they put their mind to it. He was like a pillar of strength for others to lean on when they need the strength to keep moving but it still felt like he closed off his heart to the world. If Rito was honest he would wish for someone to melt the ice around Ulquiorra's heart and to save his best friend from the looming darkness hovering over him. Looking in front of him watching as Lala's bright smile warmed the room he wondered. Would she be able to melt the ice?

~Later at night, Unknown Location: 3rd Person P.O.V.~

Click.

Kwooosh~!

Smoke can be seen seeping from under some sort of pod as it lifted into the air. The Lid fell onto tiled floor before a well-built naked male stepped out from the pod, water dripping onto the tiled floor. A breathing mask was placed on his face for a few more seconds as the male ripped the mask off his face. A mop of wet white hair shadowed the males eyes from view. The male made his way to the main deck of the ship where 20 men and women in black suits noticed his arrival and were in front of him in an instant.

"Zastin-sama! You're awake. Please make haste and dress into your clothing. His majesty requires your report." One of the men in black approached the newly dubbed Zastin and spoke, relief and happiness with a hint of fear can clearly be detected in the grunts voice. Zastin seemed dazed as he simply turned his head to the grunt who flinched backwards unconsciously at his leaders unfocused gaze. Zastin then silently nodded and turned to head to his private quarters. After gathering his bearings, he dried his body off and got dressed in another outfit similar to the one he wore when he tried to get the princess but was thwarted by that human boy, he stressed the word boy because he knew no human boy could be that strong. Zastin unconsciously balled his hand into a fist as he felt his pride was being destroyed as he realised how humiliating his performance in their battle had been compared to the boy. Before his thoughts could get any darker a loud ringing sound can be heard in the room. Zastin turned to face a giant screen tv hanging on his large wall.

"Answer call." Zastin calmly spoke before the screen turned black. Zastin unconsciously got on one knee and bowed his head as a dim light shown on the screen revealing a large figure sitting on a throne. Most of the figures appearance had been covered in darkness making it nearly impossible to identify

"...Zastin...Report…" A deep voice echoed in the vacant room as Zastin kept his pose. Zastin remained silent for a minute as he gathered his thoughts of how his mission played out.

"Yes my lord… I was able to track the princess' escape pod as it landed on this primitive planet called 'Earth'. Two of my men were sent to retrieve the princess but they ran into some complications." At the word complications the shadowed figure seemed to lean in some, becoming interested in what had happened.

"Complications? What does this primitive planet have to offer that could cause trouble for some of my elite-trainees?" The figure spoke in mild amusement and curiosity. Zastin stiffened slightly from his bowed position before he continued.

"They reported to have been interfered at first by an orange haired human male who stood in their way of the princess. They were about to move the boy out of the way when another black haired boy showed up and…. 'effortlessly' , in their words, kicked them out of the house they found the princess in…" This development seemed to amuse the figure as Zastin could've sworn he heard a low chuckle from the other end. The figure told Zastin to rise, which he quickly complied and looked at the screen to be met with giant slitted red eyes that made him shiver in fright.

"Go on…." The menacing voice spoke as the giant eyes disappeared on the screen. "Yes..Milord… I suppose they fled from the house because I decided to track them myself and I found myself at a human park where the princess was with the orange haired boy. I offered the boy safety if he just handed the princess to me, the boy refused and believed he was protecting the princess. I was about to just knock the boy out and get the princess but then… he arrived and stopped me…"

Hado #106: Furashubakku!(Zastin P.O.V.)

"Very well, do not say I did not give you the chance to leave unharmed." The next thing I notice the boy was in front of me, instinctively I raised my sword to my side effectively blocking his own blade. The pressure from the strike however actually made the ground around me implode beneath my feet. My eyes widened in shock before I leapt back to put some distance between us. This boy was strong, and well skilled with his blade. I couldn't help the excited grin that spread across my face in hopes that this would be a great battle. I decided to test the boy even more as I sprung forward swinging my blade at the boy but to my shock he easily blocked my strike and his features appeared as if he were bored by our battle. I felt something snap in me at seeing someone so casual in a fight against me, I hadn't felt so humiliated since my days of training under my sensei.

"Keh. You're not half bad with the blade boy. I would love to face you one day but I cannot waste anymore time, please move aside so that I may get the princess and we will leave this planet unharmed." I tried to reason with the boy before my anger could take over but try as I may the boy simply gave me an uncaring, empty look, it felt as if I were looking into an endless void of emptiness. He simply shook his head which angered me and I decided not to hold back and end this farce quickly. I went at the boy aiming to decapitate him as to give him a quick death but right when I saw him raise his blade to block I upped my speed to get behind him ready to use the end of the hilt to hit him on the back of his head and knock him out, changing my mind about killing him as I seriously did want to face him again someday. Right before I could strike him though he had vanished. The next thing I know, I felt an immense pain as if I were impaled. I looked down to see a blade sticking out from my abdomen; either the boy decided to avoid my organs or it was by pure luck he had missed them I did not know.

"I told you already…. Deviluke-sama does not seem to want to go with you therefore I can not allow you to take her against her will...I apologise if I have to kill you…" I barely heard the boy speak as I felt my senses weaken along with my body functions. I still do not know how the boy was able to get behind my defenses so easily. I knew from our initial trade of blows that it would be foolish to underestimate him but he seemed to have been… toying with me!

Everyone except the combatants stood in total shock as the watched as the boy had impaled the knight through the gut. The boy quickly pulled out his blade from the knight then watched as the knight fell to the ground. Ulquiorra stared impassively knowing that he did not kill the knight, making sure to avoid any vital areas. He turned to the cowering men in black, his gaze made them envision themselves in their bosses place.

"I suggest you take him to get medical treatment post haste. I made sure to avoid his vitals but he will still die from blood loss if he is not treated properly." This seemed to snap everyone out of their shock as the men rushed to go collect their boss and regroup to recover. Ulquiorra turned to go get Rito and Lala when all of a sudden his arm had been sliced off.

Everyone stopped cold. Lala and Rito screamed Ulquiorra's name as even Ulquiorra himself had allow his eyes to widen slightly in surprise before he composed himself and turned to see Zastin up, behind him. His blade dripping with blood. Looking closer Ulquiorra noticed to his shock that Zastin was unconscious but still fighting on sheer will alone. He couldn't help but feel a sense of deja vu. Ulquiorra grunted as it would take some time for his arm to regenerate especially since he couldn't focus his reiatsu to the regeneration seeing as the unconscious idiot would not lay off as he tried to hack Ulquiorra to pieces. Ulquiorra easily dodged each sloppy strike before he vanished using sonido. He got behind the knight and fired a point-blank-range Bala which sent the knight flying towards a tree. Ulquiorra breathed a sigh of relief as he focused his reiatsu to regenerating his arm. He flexed the muscles in the arm to make sure everything was working. He would worry about extending his nerves into his arm later.

He rose his blade in time to block a strike from the knight who now was topless and had some scars on his body from the Bala. Ulquiorra redirected his blade to the ground and kicked the general towards another tree. While in flight Ulquiorra appeared above the general and delivered a vicious drop-kick to his midsection sending him flying into the ground, creating a small crater from the impact. Deciding to end this he fired another point-blank range Bala effectively stopping the unconscious Knight from doing anything further. His form now battered as if he had just gone through a minefield and barely survived.

Seeing as he had finally stopped the fool Ulquiorra allowed another sigh of relief to escape from his lips. He turned to the men in black before picking up Zastin, disappearing in a sonido and reappearing in front of them before handing Zastin to them and vanishing again to collect Rito and Lala before leaving the scene in, once again, a sonido.

Hado 107: Furashubakku-endou!

"My men had reported to me what happened after I fell unconscious. To think I had to enter my berserker mode means I must re-enter my training room for the time being. I cannot apologize enough or expect you to overlook my failure and I am willing to accept any punishment you see fit to bestow upon me for such a failure." Zastin finished his report before bowing even lower to the figure on the other end of the video feed. The figure seemed to raise a tannish, muscular hand before it disappeared into the darkness again giving the impression that he were stroking his chin.

"What… did you say this boy's name were Zastin?" Zastin looked up at the figure honestly quite confused at the question, nonetheless he still answered in a professional voice. "He told me his name was Ulquiorra, my subordinates remembered his full name to be Ulquiorra Cifer." Zastin knew better than to voice his confusion in matters such as this therefore he kept his mouth shut. A wise choice he figured as when the figure leaned in closer to the light Zastin was able to see a full set of teeth clenched into a grin that he could only imagine were anything but a normal jolly grin.

"I would love to meet this Ulquiorra Cifer myself as well as see my dearest Lala-chan again. Get in contact with this Ulquiorra cifer so that I may speak to him myself. Also… Find Lala and tell her Daddy's coming for a visit." Before Zastin could say anything or even get over his shock the video feed ended and the screen went completely black.

"His majesty is personally coming here? Either Deviluke will have it's newest heir or…" Zastin turned to leave his quarters and head to the main deck. As he reached his door he flicked the light off before turning his direction towards the main deck, as the light from the hallway fades as the door closes behind him he finishes his thoughts.

"Or the earth will be a distant memory, it's ashes floating in space." The door closes completely enveloping the room in complete darkness.

AAAAAANNNNNNNDDDDD CUT!
