Chapter Twenty-One:
No Games Like Card Games
Well, as it turns out, Kimi was very feisty. To Seren's surprise and chagrin, Kimi kept throwing down the cards whenever she lost (which was often) and shrieked that she was a winner and the queen whenever she won.
D-Roy did seem to have unnatural luck, and Seren kept watching for him to cheat. The other fraccion, Illforte, Edorad, Nakim, and Shawlong all seemed to be much milder, thankfully. Otherwise the room would have been total chaos.
As for Grimmjow… well, the first time he lost he shot a cero at Seren, who'd won. Furious, she'd attacked him until Illforte, Kimi, and Shawlong dragged her off of him.
"YOU IDIOT! YOU STUPID ASSHOLE! JUST BECAUSE I WON-"
"You CHEATED!"
"YOU THINK EVERYONE CHEATS! You didn't need to CERO the cards!" Seren was pulled away, still kicking.
D-Roy won the next three games in a row, leading to several outbursts from Kimi. Illforte won the next one, then Grimmjow won. Shawlong didn't win a single game.
The next round Grimmjow won again.
"HA! I WIN!" He yelled.
"You must have CHEATED!" Seren pointed. "You and D-Roy both!"
"You're just mad because you only won once!" Just then there was a loud chomp. For a second, Grimmjow froze, then his face contorted into a scream.
"ACK! That THING'S biting my ASS!" He yelled, jumping up. Sure enough, Chompy was hanging from his backside.
"Ack! Chompy! Bad! Down!" Kimi yelled.
"No! GOOD Chompy! Take a bite out of him!" Seren cheered.
Seren found herself, for the first time in Hueco Mundo, truly enjoying herself.
She was happy.
When Seren said her goodbyes, she gave hugs to everyone (although avoiding Shawlong a little bit, that guy was CREEPY) and a quick squeeze to Kimi, she picked up Chompy and prepared to leave.
"Hey. You owe me. That stupid THING of yours bit me!" Grimmjow demanded.
"No! He was just doing what I secretly wanted to do."
"You wanted to bite my BUTT?!" He paused. "You're kinky."
Seren's jaw dropped as her face turned bright red. "LIKE HELL, YOU PERV! WHY IS IT THAT EVERYTHING I SAY AROUND YOU TURNS WEIRD?!"
"THAT'S WHAT WAS IMPLIED!"
"I wanted to HURT you, that's it!" Seren yelled back. "Now, I have to GO!" She punched Grimmjow, then ran as fast as she could, listening to him howling after her with fury.
Something about it made her smile even more.
When she got back, she noticed that there was no Ulquiorra.
"Ah, I see," she said, setting Chompy down. "Now remember, no more eating his clothes!" She lectured it, but the thing only tipped its head before waddling away.
"And, no more biting Grimmjow's butt! That only leads to awkward conversations!" She called after it.
Just then she heard a quiet grumble. Ulquiorra sat up in his bed, rubbing his head.
Seren's jaw dropped.
Oh, shizz. She'd woken the zombie-emo boy up.
WHY?! Why?! Why couldn't things ever go right with her?!?
"A-I'm sorry, Ulquiorra. I thought you weren't here…" Seren muttered.
"It's fine." He replied.
Seren looked up. She noticed that Ulquiorra looked… almost human. He had dark shadows under his green eyes, which looked paler than usual. Delicate, like a porcelain doll.
"What are you looking at?"
Seren looked down, embarrassed. "The new door."
Of course, the door was the other way, behind her.
Why, Seren, why?
"Yes. I ordered a new door." Ulquiorra lay back down and closed his eyes.
"Good night."
"I'll be leaving again in a couple hours. And it's still late afternoon."
"That's wrong, Ulquiorra. When I say 'goodnight,' you should say 'goodnight' back."
"Why?"
"It sounds nice."
"Goodnight, then."
He rolled over and it wasn't long before he was back asleep.
