By the way, I have the settings on annonymous reviews enabled, so absolutely anyone can review this story. So if you have something to say... Feel Free!
Important! Those of you who have played BLEACH: The Shattered Blade will recognize my new antagonist. If you haven't he is not an OC. NOT! He is an actual character from the BLEACH story line. I'll Give him a bit of a background as I go for the people who aren't as familiar with him.
Summary: I figure if you've read this far you probably don't need a summary of the story. If you want the summary though feel free to look back into chapters 1-3.
Chapter 5: "Pancakes taste good for breakfast." -Byakuya? ( if you know where this is from i'll love you to death. If you don't then ask and I'll tell you how to find it. Very funny)
Orihime stared blankly at Ulquiorra expecting him to leave at any moment. he did not however, and only continued to stare back at her.
"I suggest you eat the food." Ulquiorra said. His eyes never left hers.
'he's not leaving.' realized Orihime. 'Which means i have to eat the food!' She suddenly didn't feel so good as her head started to spin. Her heart rate picked up as another wave of nervousness washed over her.
"Woman? What is wrong wi-"
Orihime's vision went black around the edges and Ulquiorra's words no longer made any sense. The floor came fast.
Instantaneously Ulquiorra was next to her catching Orihime in his arms. "What's the matter human?"
She didn't respond; her body laid limp in his arms. All dead weight.
He carried her to the bed, laying her on top of it like a corpse. She had felt so light and boney in his arms that it seemed unnatural. The Espada took a moment to examine the food on the cart. It looked grayish and coldish. (how else do i describe Hueco Mundo food?)
"there must be a lack of necessary nutrients in this food." he mumbled to himself. He glanced over at Orihime analyzing her features. Now that he noticed it her face looked gaunt and sunken, her fingers thin and fragile, her whole body looked week and frail. ...Like she was starving to death.
Ulquiorra poked the food experimentally. It squished sickly. 'A change in diet, possibly.' He thought. Without wasting anymore time the Espada took the cart and left the room. He wasn't quite sure what was wrong with their food. And he didn't know where to find more nutritious food. Not in the Hueco Mundo at least.
He wasn't sure how long she was going to be unconscious, but he decided to risk a trip to the world of the living, to do some shopping and possibly find himself a snack. He hadn't eaten anybody in a while. (Mmmmm. People. the snack that smiles back until you bite their heads off.) Espada numero quatro left immediately.
Orihime woke up to someone incessantly calling, "Human. Human." She felt so tired and weak she could barely open her eye lids to see what was going on. After three attempt her eyes fluttered open but it took longer to focus on the person speaking.
Hunger tore through her body in painful snarls causing Orihime to wince in pain and make a small groan. her starvation diet had finally caught up with her and the stress before had caused her body to shut down. When Orihime's gaze met Ulquiorra's she tried to smile feebly.
"Are you hungry?" Asked Ulquiorra coldly. (This is what we call a stupid question)
"N-no." She replied. "I just don't feel well."
"Don't lie to me."
"..." Orihime hesitated. "I am hungry, a little." She confessed.
Ulquiorra pulled a cart up to the side of her bed and reached for the lid of one of the platters.
The thought of the nasty gray food underneath made Orihime's stomach churn in distaste. She reached out quickly and caught the Espada's hand.
"Don't make me eat that food. Please its- its gross." she pulled his hand towards her.
Ulquiorra stared down at her frail hand clasping his. He felt unnatural tingles run up his arm. His eyes locked with hers and he saw the fright in them.
The Espada sighed and turned back to the tray. "You must eat woman."
Orihime released his hand and seemed to melt against the bed. When Ulquiorra tried to hand her a spoon it slipped from her fingers and clattered to the floor. Her eyelids drooped in exhaustion.
Ulquiorra examined hercondition. She didn't appear to have the strength to eat. It was as if she'd just given up. Worried about his ward, he tried to think of a way to feed her.
He ran out of time as Orihime's eyes shut and her face tilted to the side as if she were falling asleep again. He couldn't let her do that. with a swift motion he un-lidded a tray and picked up a piece of cake like bread humans called a "pancake."
Ulquiorra took a bite of the, as he considered, nasty food and began to chew it into a fine mush. (mouth to mouth. awww.) He took Orihime in his arms, pulling her into a sitting position. He hesitated only briefly before leaning in and placing his mouth over hers. Positioning one of his hands on her jaw he forced her to open her mouth so he could transfer the food.
Once he'd transfered the food from his mouth to hers Ulquiorra pulled away to see if it worked. Orihime wasn't swallowing it. The Espada held the side of her face and gently slapped her cheek.
"Eat damn it." he hissed.
He was able to get her conscious enough to down the pancake mush. After the first itwasn't so hard to chew up and give her the rest. (via mouth to mouth) After she'd eaten one pancake he made her drink a glass of warm milk before letting Orihime fall asleep and rest.
It was several hours later before Orihime woke up again. ulquiorra had to feed her by mouth once more. By the time she fell asleep again he was ready to retch his insides out from the taste that lingered in is mouth. Human food tasted disgusting and foul to him. It made his insides crawl. The souls he'd eaten earlier had tasted so much better, even if they were a little bland from lacking spiritual pressure.
The third time Orihime awoke she was able to feed herself. So Ulquiorra took to patiently watching.
Again sorry for not updating sooner. *Quotes a movie: "We are worms! Worthless WORMS!"* Any way next chapter we bring back Gin. and we find out Ulquiorra's favorite food! Also i'm including a sentence from the next chapter that might entice you to keep reading! : She was suprised when he suddenly let a moan escape his from his throat.: That's it! Please keep reading. I love my readers. Also don't forget to review, it makes me want to write more. Tell me your opinion on a GrimmIchi pairing, and Share your love for Szayel. I'm tempted to make him sing with Orihime some more. Any songs you'd like me to know about that would be entertaining for the two to sing?
Throughout this Fic there will be random ( ) These are used to express my thoughts or imputs. they are meant to be funny and witty but they aren't part of the actual story. I was told by my peers however that they made the Fic twice as good, so I present them to you here in the printed version of this story. .....Yes I wrote this by hand on paper with pencil originally. Carved in a stone tablet with a chisel! OMG!
So let me know!!!! Thnx!
