He could always feel her.

Whether she was within arms reach, or even half way across Las Noches, he always felt her. He wasn't sure of these weird feelings he had begun to develop for the girl.

For he was a hollow.

And all he was good at was destruction and slaying.

He didn't have a heart. And yet, whenever he was around her, there was an actual emotion in his chest.

He'd feel butterflies in his stomach where his hole was.

It always irritated him though. He wasn't super smart. He knew this well. But he wasn't totally stupid either.

He knew how to fight, how to kill, how to show people who was King.

However, whenever she was around, he was a mess.

Her aura was so strong, so bright.

It ate at him.

Completely melted him down to the bone.

He couldn't hide anything from her.

Couldn't deny her anything.

For she had somehow dug a hole in his chest and managed to stay there.

But then again, who was he to complain?

It was something he could use against that bastard.

The one she loves so much.

So when he finally decided to keep these feelings, only one thought entered his mind.

Win her heart and destroy Kurosaki from the inside and out.
