Regular speech: "Hi"

Thoughts: 'HI'

Abilities: "Getsuga Tenshou!"

Zanpakuto/Spirts:"Hello"


Grimmjow was taken back at what he was told and was in disbelief, first he woke up in some desert that looked just like Hueco Mundo and now some random panther is saying he's Grimmjow's Zanpakuto. 'My zanpakuto has a physical form but how?' Grimmjow questions. 'I was never told that my zanpakuto would have a form. Aizen didn't mention this.'

'Because I concur he never thought of this outcome happening.' The beast theorized causing Grimmjow to stare at the animal cautiously, how in the world did it know what he was thinking? 'You and I are linked, Grimmjow. I will always know what you're thinking and I can also see what you are doing too.' The panther informed him. Grimmjow let a scowl show on his face

"So what the hell do you want?" Grimmjow asked, getting straight to the point. "Are you trying to take over my body or something ? you...cat?" The ex-espada also asked with a suspicious tone, if this 'zanpakuto' wanted a brawl he was willing to give one, sword or no sword he wasn't going down without a fight also not having something to call this spirit was getting old really fast. This only made the zanpakuto chuckle.

'No, I have no intention of wanting your body, boy.' The animal clarified as he started to walk around Grimmjow in a circle but then ran to the throne by the tree and sat on it. 'As for my name, I thought it was obvious. It's Pantera, ' Pantera answered, identifying himself.

"Then what do you want, Pantera?" Grimmjow asked again with annoyance, he hated repeating himself. The beast stared deeply at the young boy.

'Grimmjow…" The panther started. "Do you know why your body is different in this new world and why you couldn't use my power?' The spirit asked suddenly. Grimmjow then remembered what he talked about with Ichigo.

"Yeah, well only the human part, my theory is that when Ichigo and I were linked to come to this world, my soul was given a physical body to compensate for being hollow and I'm also guessing hollows don't exist in this world so I couldn't live in it by default." Grimmjow explained, "Now, not being able to use your power that I don't know but I won't say it isn't annoying," He also added.

'Well, it seems you've got the gist of it.' Pantera concluded. 'You are indeed human.' Pantera confirmed Grimmjow's theory. 'Also something else has taken place inside your soul.' Pantera stated. 'When Ichigo's Soul and yours became one for a split second yours then became unstable because of your hollow powers so it was then reformed to something else.' Pantera informed. 'Also you still have your powers.' Pantera told the blue haired child. This made Grimmjow smirk in response to the beast words.

That means I'm stronger than Ichigo right now.' Grimmjow celebrated by himself.

'However..' Pantera started 'I will not allow you to use them.' Pantera finished, causing Grimmjow's smug face to fade instantly and turn into one of anger.

"What the hell do you mean 'you won't let me'?" Grimmjow snapped.

'What I mean is that you have a new body. A human body at that, you are not used to having one, there is no telling what kind of drawbacks it could have if you use it with your small human body.' Pantera said to Grimmjow. Grimmjow should've prepared for a rough but, because he didn't, he wasn't prepared for what Pantera had to say next. 'Also because..as ironic as this sounds, personally I don't like you Grimmjow.' Pantera added swiftly and calmly. Grimmjow's face turned from anger to pure rage.

"What the fuck!? You don't like me? I don't give a shit!" Grimmjow shouted "You're MY zanpakuto I can use you whenever I damn well please!" Grimmjow stated. Pantera is his sword, his tool and no way he was gonna let some damn animal tell him what he can and can't do.

"Listen here, you damn cat you're gonna do what I say. Understood?" Grimmjow demanded walking up to Pantera with a scowl attempting to scare the beast. Pantera then stood up and looked Grimmjow in the eye standing its ground. Pantera started to flare with a bright blue aura that almost blinded Grimmjow. "Tch.. the hell?" Grimmjow said stopping in his tracks because of the sudden burst of power.

'I don't have to do a damn thing."'the zanpakuto spirit snarled back.'This is exactly why I don't want to help you because you are selfish, rude and a user. Now that I have sentience, I no longer wish to serve you as you are now.'Pantera declared with aggression. 'But, before I kick you out of this place, I will let you know this, your powers have compensated with the fact you are no longer hollow and it has changed drastically thanks to that boy Ichigo."'the spirit claimed.

'That being said, the shinigami powers you had received thanks to the hogyoku have now become more dominant than the hollow.' Pantera finished as Grimmjow was completely blinded by a bright blue light.

"Wait, stop.." Grimmjow said interrupted and kicked out of the realm.


-Outside World-


"Hey...hey..Grimmjow wake up." Wendy said softly, slightly shaking the mentioned person.

"He's still asleep?" Ichigo questioned walking up to Wendy's side. "No, I've been trying but he's not responding at all." Wendy told him.

"Don't worry I got it, just go help Jellal put the supplies away, ok?." Ichigo said, smiling at her. Wendy then nodded with a smile and walked away to do as she was told. Ichigo watched her walk off then looked at Grimmjow and deadpanned 'Man, he's really out cold' he remembered as his eyes twitched. "Oi Grimmjow wake up" he said roughly shaking Grimmjow opposite of Wendy. Grimmjow woke up with a jolt nearly hitting Ichigo in the face luckily Ichigo dodged quickly

"Pantera" The ex-espada muttered that only he heard. He then looked to his side and saw Ichiigo "What are you doing at Kurosaki?"

"Waking up a slouch. Seriously, you are a heavy sleeper." Ichigo said getting up and extended his hand to Grimmjow, who got up on his own and ignored Ichigo's gesture. "Whatever." Ichigo said, rolling his eyes.

"Hey Kurosaki-kun and Grimmjow-kun, Wendy and I are done, let's get moving." Jellal said with his backpack on and Wendy smiling brightly next to him

"What's got you so happy, Kid?" Grimmjow questioned Wendy.

"Jellal said he's taking us to a guild!" Wendy revealed, beaming with excitement.

"Guild?" Both the swordsman boys questioned simultaneously.

"Do you not know what a guild is?" Jellal asked with a raised brow, Ichgio shaking his head and Grimmjow just looking dumbfounded. "Well I assumed you two were mages because of your swords and that you knew what a guild was." Jellal explained.

"Mage? What do you mean?" Ichigo asked with even more confusion. Grimmjow is just as confused.

"Can you two use magic?" Wendy questioned, wondering what's up with these two. 'Why are they acting so weird? How can they have swords and not have magic?'

"Magic, What?" Grimmjow asked a question for the third time 'Guilds, mages and magic? It's just one thing after a damn other." He wondered what else they needed to tell him and Ichigo.

"Well don't worry we can talk about it on the way, let's go." Jellal stated as he started walking off with Wendy right behind him.

"What is this new world you dragged me to?" Grimmjow asks again, looking at Ichigo.

Ichigo looked at Grimmjow who looked back and shrugged, grabbed his swords then started to walk to catch up to the other two. Grimmjow sighed, grabbing his sword and doing the same.

Jellal spent the last hour telling Ichigo and Grimmjow about guilds, mages, and about Fiore.

"Okay, so guilds are a workplace where wizards can find work and make jewels which is the currency of this place called Fiore?" Ichigo asked, making sure he got that right.

"Correct Kurosaki-kun." Jellal said, confirming Ichigo's question.

"And mages are people who wield magic power and use it to cast spells and they are certain types of magic that are extremely rare and those are called lost magic. Okay I think I got it." Ichigo said with a nod "What about you Grimmjow you understand?" Ichigo said.

"Yeah, yeah. Magic and wizards and what not." He responded clearly, his mind is on something else but still listened to get the gist of the conversation 'Why in the world does Pantera not like me? I mean, he told me why but I still don't understand and what does he mean I'm more shinigami now?' To Grimmjow at this point it's all sounding like bullshit. 'Whatever' He thought, "Hey Wendy." He said getting the girl's attention.

"Yeah?" Wendy said, looking up at him.

"You said you use something called Sky Dragon Slayer magic which is a lost magic, right?" He asked.

"Yes, my mother Grandeeney taught it to me." She answered. "But I can use healing and support magic really well but I'm not really good at fighting." She added sadly thinking she was useless outside of healing

"That's okay Wendy" Ichigo told her. "So you're good at healing? I have a friend who's amazing at healing and she barely could fight but she was one the most important people on a battlefield" Ichigo said smiling at her

"Really?" Wendy asked.

"Yeah, she's one of the reasons I was able to win some of my fights." He explained. Still he didn't like the fact the girl couldn't fight well but it couldn't be helped. She was just a little girl but he still didn't like it nonetheless she wanted to be a mage and apparently that comes with some dangerous encounters, maybe he and Grimmjow can help with that. "If it wasn't for her I wouldn't have been able to kick Grimmjow's butt that one time we fought." He says jokingly to the girl. Grimmjow's head snapped in his direction.

"The fuck did you just say Kurosaki?" Grimmjow said with a snarl.

"Oh nothing, just telling Wendy I kicked your ass a long time ago." Ichigo said back with a smirk.

"You want to have a rematch then, Asshole?" Grimmjow said, grabbing the hilt of his sword wanting to kick Ichigo's ass because of the shit he was saying. Ichigo chuckled, then put his hands up.

"Nah, not really in a mood for a fig-" Ichigo started then suddenly Jellal stopped walking.

"ANIMA!" Jellal shouted, turning around with a face full of concern, quickly making everyone look at him.

"What's an Anima?" Ichigo asked, wondering what Jellal was worried about.

"It's nothing, don't worry about it." Jellal dodged quickly. "But I need to find you three guilds quickly." He said, picking up his pace. Ichigo didn't like how quick Jellal avoided what he just said but if he didn't want to tell them that's fine. Grimmjow didn't care, it doesn't concern him what Jellal is worried about. Wendy was confused on what Jellal said 'You three' does that mean he's not sticking around?.

"You're not staying with us Jellal?" Wendy asked him with sadness and disappointment in her voice.

"No, I'm sorry Wendy, there is something I need to take care of and I have to do it alone." Jellal said with a voice full of determination. Wendy started to tear up.

"But-" Wendy was going to try to talk him out of it but was stopped by Ichigo putting his hand on her head.

"Wendy, if he says this is something he must do on his own, let him be. He doesn't want you to get involved and potentially hurt. I know it sucks that he's leaving but that doesn't mean we won't see him again" Ichigo said to the crying child. Jellal smiled and nodded towards Ichigo. Grimmjow even took it upon himself to say something.

"Look kid, Jellal probably has something to deal with that only he understands, just let him go." Grimmjow said, getting annoyed by this emotional scene. Wendy didn't like it anyway, she likes Jellal. She doesn't want him to leave.

"Don't worry Wendy, it's not like you'll be alone, you've got big brothers to watch over you." Jellal said, pointing to Ichigo and Grimmjow. Wendy starts to calm down a bit. Grimmjow rolled his eyes at that and Ichigo chuckled.

"But still…" Wendy was going to start again.

"Please Wendy I'm sorry I have to go but I promise to meet you again one day.. Let's not talk about this anymore." Jellal demanded. Wendy reluctantly nodded her head and stopped trying to talk him out of it.

"Well with that finally over, let's just go already." Grimmjow let out an uninterested sigh as he started to walk again, not really caring that Jellal is leaving or not. Everyone else sweatdropped. 'He is such a dick. Why did I choose him again? Uryu would have been a better choice.' Ichigo thought about rethinking his choice of a companion but he wouldn't want to take a friend who had bonds with others in his world, from Ichigo's knowledge Grimmjow didn't have any. The group continued to move on.


-Some Hours Later-


The sun had set hours ago as the group were walking to find a shelter or a guild. Everyone was tired, especially Ichigo, who was giving a sleeping Wendy a piggy back ride. The three boys were on the verge of passing out from walking for so long but all seemed worth it when they came across a village but the boys were so tired they didn't even notice a figure watching them across the village.

The group walked in a hut and took a breather. Ichigo laid Wendy down on a clean looking spot on the floor as he sat right next to her with Grimmjow sitting across from them. Jellal then took a deep breath and looked at them.

"This is where we part ways." Jellal with a bittersweet smile. "It's sad we can't travel together but this has to happen." Over the little time they've traveled together Jellal has grown to like these three even the grumpy one. Jellal then walked over to Ichigo and stretched out his hand. Ichigo looked at Jellal and smiled, taking his hand.

"Thanks for everything you've done Jellal. I really appreciate it. I'll make this up to you." Ichigo promised sincerely.

"Your welcome, I hope our paths cross again one day." Jellal said letting go of Ichigo's hand and started to walk over to Grimmjow to shake his hand but was stopped but Grimmjow put his hand up.

"Don't bother, I'm not into that sappy goodbye crap, but see ya around Jellal." Grimmjow said, closing his eyes. Jellal smiled at Grimmjow's own way of saying goodbye. Jellal then walked over to the door and opened it and left.

Jellal walked out the hut with a smile and turned away from the door and started to walk away but he then suddenly ran into another person.

"Hey Ichigo, I have something to ask." Grimmjow said to Ichigo

"What is it?"

"Since you're a shinigami; your zanpakuto has a physical form inside your soul, right?" Grimmjow asked which confused Ichigo but he still answered

"Yeah, they do, all shinigami's zanpakuto's are like that." Ichigo answered.

"So what is yours like?" Grimmjow asked

"Hmm..Well I technically have two of them." Ichigo said, remembering his time at the soul palace. "But at the same time I don't because one of them represents my Quincy powers." He explained.

"Do you get along with them?" Grimmjow questioned the oranged haired boy.

"Well I got along with the one that represents my Quincy powers but the other one…" Ichigo trailed off remembering his hollow/shinigami. "We usually don't really see eye to eye sometimes but I wouldn't be alive if it wasn't for him." Ichigo said with an annoyed tone. "But why'd you wanna know about the zanpakuto spirit?" Ichigo asked, extremely confused.

"Don't worry about it. That's something for me to know." Grimmjow said with a smirk.

Ichigo rolled his eyes, 'Of course he won't tell me.'

"Well anyways i'm going to sleep." Grimmjow announced, closing his eyes.

"Yeah I think I will too." Ichigo agreed, it was getting really late and all that walking finally got to him shutting his eyes.


Morning came and Wendy was the first to wake up. She then looked around to see Ichigo and Grimmjow sleeping but there was someone missing. 'Jellal..he really did leave.' She thought with a frown, as she started to tear up. 'I thought we were going to be in a guild together.'

"What are you sad for, little lady?" A very old-raspy voice asked concerned. Wendy looked up to see a slim elderly man with a large white beard and mustache wearing native clothing with a ball of fur hanging in the back and he was wearing a tooth necklace.

"I was told I was going to be taken to a guild full of mages but there is barely anyone here!" Wedny cried out. The old man showed a face of panic and worry.

"No, no this is a guild full of mages!" The old man announced with a smile. This made Wendy stop crying at the moment.

"Really?" Wendy asked with an excitement

"Yes, really." The old man confirmed then he looked at the two boys in the room sleeping. "Who are these boys?" The old man asked the girl but he knew about those boys because of the young man from last night but he didn't know their names. Wendy was going to introduce them and then remembered something Jellal told her yesterday.

"Don't worry Wendy, it's not like you'll be alone, you've got big brothers to watch over you." Jellal said, pointing to Ichigo and Grimmjow.

Wendy looked at the man with a bright smile and said "they're my big brothers Ichigo and Grimmjow." She claimed and the old man nodded

"Ok, so can you wake them up?" The old man asked her. Wendy quickly got and walked over to Ichigo and lightly shook him

"Hey Ichigo-nii wake up." She softly spoke to Ichigo and slowly he started to open the his eyes. Ichigo woke up with a yawn and looked to see Wendy smiling over him.
