Sometime at night-judging by how dark it was-Grimmjow awoke feeling a bit strange and groggy. He gazed up at the ceiling, trying to recall what had led him to the point he's at.

Soon, it came to him.

He sat up so quickly he thought he'd pass out. Why'd he let that Shinigami do such things to him? He even begged to be taken! This was so wrong. This was so ridiculously wrong that he didn't even notice the object of his thoughts watching him from the door as he opened a garganta and disappeared back into Hueco Mundo.

BLEACH

It's been two months and Grimmjow still refused to step foot inside the World of the Living. His Hollow hole in his abdomen had disappeared and in its place was a baby bump. He knew he should tell the strawberry Shinigami that he was with child and that it was getting harder to find food as his condition progressed. Grimmjow constantly felt drained due to the kid feeding off of his reitsu to develop. But he couldn't, for the life of him, understand why he was bigger than normal considering he's seen some Hollows at this time and they've never been this big.

Grimmjow was sitting behind a boulder when he noticed something green not too far from his resting spot. He cautiously walked over to it, his instincts telling him that there was no danger. He poked it a few times until it moved a bit, causing him to jump back. He looked at it curiously before turning it over.

Only to see a familiar little girl.

"Nel?" he questioned when he saw her face. The child didn't respond and seem to be unconscious. He checked her reitsu levels and found it to be dangerously low. His instincts told him to take the cub and nurse it back to full health. He would normally leave cubs alone since they were of no importance to him, but he was with his own cub and his mind flashed back to Kurosaki. The man would never leave behind a child, and, to add on, this child is the same one that was really connected to the Shinigami when it came to the save the human girl.

Grimmjow cradled the girl in his arms as he sat back down.

Heavy reitsu beamed down on them and the life inside stirred restlessly in a panic.

"Ah! It seems that I've found me a snack. An' ya look strong, too! 'm sure to be a Vasto Lorde after I eat you!" The Hollow cheered. Grimmjow grit his teeth. He stood up and begin running. Cowardly, he knows, but he won't risk the cubs' lives. He was very close to a giant boulder when the Hollow grabbed his leg, causing him to fall, but he managed to maneuver himself so he doesn't fall on his stomach and Nel.

The Arrancar was being pulled and he tried, in vain, to get a loose. He tightened and his hold on Nel and curled a protective the arm around his stomach.

'Please. Let me go. Someone... Someone please save us!' he pleaded in his head. The next thing he knew, there was a piercing scream and the hand on his leg was gone. Grimmjow looked up to see the very men he was afraid to see: Kurosaki Ichigo.

Ichigo looked at him, emotionless, before his eyes landed on the small body in the blueberry's arms. Grimmjow saw where his sight landed and tightened his hold on the cub.

"Grimmjow... What happened to her?" He asked slowly as he started walking over to the sitting man.

The blue-haired man was hesitant before he answered, "She's starving."

Ichigo crouched in front of them before closing his eyes and let his reitsu swirl around them. He opened his eyes, which turned red, and touched Nel's and Grimm's stomachs.

Grimmjow watched wearily as the strawberry touched the girl and him. As soon as the tan hand touched his stomach, he felt a surge of power and satiation. He felt so incredible and was left in a daze.

When Ichigo finished, his eyes turned back to normal and he looked at Grimmjow. He noticed how those teal-blue,eyes hazed as he swayed a bit.

"That's...good... What did you do?" the drunk looking Arrancar asked. Ichigo smiled as he helped him stand.

"It's something I've learned after watching how Hollows feed off of other Hollows for their reitsu. Come on. We have to leave before anymore Hollows come." He guided the other away from the site.

"Where are you takin' me," he question. The redhead glanced back at him and smiled calmly.

"Las Noches," he answered simply. Grimmjow stared at him in shock.

"Las Noches? Why're we goin' there?"

"I have defeated Aizen. In Hollow standards, I have defeated the previous king, so that makes me the rightful owner of everything he possessed. there are some Shinigami scientists there, but I could easily tell them to leave since my commands are practically on par with the Soutaicho's. Plus, I know you've been avoiding me for the past 2 months." He explained casually. Grimmjow looked down but stayed quiet.

"Grimmjow... you're pregnant, aren't you."
