Hueco Mundo
The week passed quickly enough. Ichigo was gone most of the day, attending school and than studying after school to catch up on missed work and, further more, gathering an additional two months worth of material since he had informed his teachers he would be gone yet again. His Alpha’s family more or less left him to his own devises during that week.
Yuzu couldn’t see him and Karin would say hi when they passed each other, but otherwise stayed respectfully out of his way unless if he approached her first. One thing he did notice was that she worked swell for Hollow bait and he had managed to snag a few meals from the debased fools that foolishly went after her.
Surprisingly, his eating habits didn’t seem to bother her too much and by the third day she had even agreed to act as bait for him when he asked it of her. They kept that little tidbit from Ichigo because they both knew the teen would freak out over it and she was in no real danger as long as he was there. The Hollows that showed up here were no match for even his depleted strength and he grudgingly admitted that the girl could throw a good kick if need be to defend herself, something that informed him that she’s had to do so before he had met her and once more he questioned Ichigo’s Sire about his deplorably lack of training for his other offspring. It was a mistake he definitely was not going to make with his own, regardless of gender.
Isshin watched him wearily, especially around his daughters, but seemed to be willing to leave well enough alone. Grimmjow even swore the former Shinigami knew about his and Karin’s little hunting trips, but didn’t request they stop nor did he interfere, although he was sure the former Shinigami was keeping an ‘eye‘ on his daughter every time they did go hunting.
Now that his Alpha’s family was home, he discovered that Ichigo’s sexual cravens had dulled a little. When they did mate it was either late at night and Ichigo tried to keep it quiet so as not to disturb his family, it was also not the more violent play he was use to, or in the shower where the sound of running water covered their moans and the water washed away the scent, blood and semen from their joining.
It was once more a Sunday and they were expecting to head to Hueco Mundo the next morning. Ichigo’s human friends were all here, from the Quincy boy to the girl that had spawned the invasion of Las Noches.
None of them seemed afraid of him and Orihime even greeted him warmly while the large boy named Sado, although Ichigo called him Chad for some strange reason, merely offered him a grunt in greeting and didn’t speak much. He’d already had his stare down with the Quincy last week.
“Are you sure you don’t want us to come with you, Kurosaki-kun?” Orihime asked for probably the dozenth time.
“I am sure. There is no reason for you to miss school over me and there really isn’t much of a threat there anymore now that Aizen and most of the Arrancar have been dealt with,” Ichigo assured her.
The teen was packing a small duffle with some things he believed he needed for the trip. Grimmjow was still wearing the Yukuta Ichigo had given him the one day simply because it was comfortable and he really had no desire to go shopping about. That and Ichigo had commented he looked good in it, although he would never, EVER, confess to that being one of the reasons he was content to wear it.
“If you say so,” Orihime sighed, but it was clear she was not happy with his decision.
“Look, if you don’t hear from me by mid May you can come after me. It would also make me feel better knowing that you are all here to protect everyone during my absence,” he assured her.
“Oh, okay!” she chirped happily. “You can count on us,” she saluted smartly.
Ichigo’s friends had taken the news about his upcoming fatherhood rather well, once the shock had worn off and they had managed to revive a heartbroken Orihime.
“Do you have everything, Ichigo?” Chad asked.
“Yeah, I think so. Urahara-san said he will have some MRE like meals for me to eat while we are there. I shouldn’t need much. It’s not like we are going to be there trying to impress anyone. Hopefully we won’t even run into anyone. Honestly, most of this is my homework,” Ichigo answered sheepishly.
“Waste of space,” Grimmjow muttered.
He honestly had no idea why the teen felt it necessary to haul all that heavy weight around with them. Books were a waste of time in his mind. All that mattered was strength and weather or not you were more powerful than your opponent. Carrying around dead weight was just another way to get an idiot killed.
“Well, that’s the last of it. You guys going to walk with us to Urahara’s?” Ichigo asked.
“Of course!” Orihime exclaimed.
“Oi, you done?” Karin asked, coming into the room with a teary eyed Yuzu.
“You are going to come back safe, right Ichi-nii?” Yuzu asked with a sniff.
“Of course I will,” Ichigo assured them, given both girls a hug, despite Karin’s poor attempts at protesting. “Keep Goat Face in line while I am gone, alright,”
“Promise,” Karin responded. “An ass kicking at least twice a day.”
“That’s my sister,” he ruffled her hair much to her protest. “Alright, let’s head out,” Ichigo ordered, tossing his heavy duffle over his shoulder.
“What are you doing about your body?” Ishida asked as they walked down the stairs.
“Kon is going to take care of it while I am gone,” Ichigo answered. “Hopefully he won’t do anything stupid with it,” he added.
“The stuffed animal your sister carries around?” Grimmjow asked in disbelief.
“He’s actually a Mod Soul. You will see when we get to the shop; he’s been hiding there since the family got back from vacation.”
The trek to the shop was uneventful and the two brats were waiting outside to direct them in. Kon was already in the underground cavern with Kisuke.
“Ah, ready to go Kurosaki-kun?” Kisuke asked with a wide smile as the small group approached.
“Yeah, are these the MRE’s?” he asked, checking out the large bag by Kisuke’s side.
“Yes, with my own little twist so they should actually taste like real food.” Kisuke answered.
“I hope so. Kon,” Ichigo turned his head to the walking stuffed lion, “take care of my body and if I hear you have done anything perverted with it I’ll give you to Yuzu for a year and let Ishida make the next ‘Bostov Dress’ at the same time,” Ichigo threatened.
“You wouldn’t,” Kon gasped in horror.
“I could do an entire wardrobe,” Ishida offered, adjusting his glasses in a way that actually almost made him look evil.
“I mean it,” Ichigo said firmly.
Kisuke took his cane and thrust it at Kon. The stuffed animal fell over limply and a green pill popped out of his mouth. Ichigo swallowed the pill and burst from his human body.
Instantly the reiatsu from the teen skyrocketed as he was freed from his human constraints. He flexed his fingers a few times before nodding his head and tossing the two bags easily over his shoulder so they clanked against the giant meat cleaver that was his Zanpakuto.
“Alright, whenever you are ready,” Ichigo nodded to Kisuke.
“Of course. But before I open the garganta, how do you plan on getting home this time?”
“I’ll port ‘em,” Grimmjow answered with a grunt.
He had been standing off from the group and just wanted to get back to the desert and a reliable source of food. He swore the first thing he was going to make sure they did was to hunt down the toughest Adjucus they could find because if he didn’t get a real meal soon he was going to be in trouble. Feeding from Ichigo again was NOT on his to do list.
“Alright,” Kisuke answered after studying him for a moment.
With a leap the Shinigami landed on one of the two poles that had been set up.
“You remember what to do, Kurosaki-kun?” Kisuke questioned.
“Yeah I remember, just open the damn portal already,” Ichigo snorted.
“For sure you don’t want us to come?” Orihime asked worriedly.
“You are not the best at making paths, or planning,” Ishida pointed out.
“Thank guys, but I would feel better knowing you are here taking care of the town and my family in my absence. We haven’t heard from Soul Society since the war and I don’t trust the idiot they got watching this town to do any sort of job,” Ichigo declared.
The argument was getting stale and old and Grimmjow wondered why they kept rehashing it as nothing about the argument itself had changed, just the words used to describe the exact same thing.
“Good luck, Ichigo,” Chad offered.
“Thanks.”
Kisuke finished his long winded chant and the black maw of the garganta opened. It was hard to tell, but it looked like the shop keeper seemed a little upset that no one seemed to appreciate the show he had been putting on to open the gate.
“Ready?” Ichigo asked him.
“Tsh, we are just going home as far as I am concerned,” Grimmjow snorted, kicking off of the ground and towards the portal.
“I’ll take that as a yes,” Ichigo sighed, also kicking off from the ground and leaping through into the gateway.
His path making skills hadn’t improved any, but at least it served and truthfully Grimmjow didn’t want to waste any reiatsu if he could avoid it. It was, in all honesty, just a relief to escape from the human world and his Alpha’s entire annoying rabble of friends and family.
The trip through was relatively quick and they immerged out the other side into the moonlit dessert. Skeletal looking trees doted the landscape around them and off in the distance they could see the cracked dome that had once been Aizen’s seat of power.
Instantly he felt slightly better as he breathed in the rich, desert air. The living realm’s air was so thin that it was nice to be able to breath normally again. Regrettably, it did little to take the edge off of his hunger.
The roar of a nearby hollow did perk him up though. Beside him, Ichigo scowled as he looked towards where the noise had come from.
“Damn it, a fight already,” the teen groused.
“Fuck that, I am hungry. I need to eat a real meal for a change instead of those weak fuckers that like going after Karin,” he smirked in pleasure, ignoring the stunned teen and making his way towards the rapidly approaching reiatsu he could sense.
“Wait, what was that about Karin?” Ichigo demanded, jogging slightly to catch up to him.
It was an okay powered hollow and should suffice as an acceptable meal. Reluctantly he could already tell that he had been weakened, both by his pregnancy and semi starvation, to the point that the incoming Adjucus was actually stronger than he currently was. It had taken too long to return here and the realization he had become so depleted left a sick feeling in his stomach. Even with this incoming meal he might still need to feed from the teen if he was going to regain any resemblance of strength. It was not a pleasing thought.
“Oi, I asked a question about my sister, I expect it answered,” Ichigo snapped in irritation, his reiatsu lashing about in his frustration.
Grimmjow gasped and instantly cringed as his Alpha’s displeased reiatsu slammed into him. Instinct cried for him to bear his belly and offer his throat to his clearly displeased Alpha, but he squashed the urge under and remained standing, all be it slightly hunched and in a defensive position.
“He seriously needs to learn some self control,” he growled to himself.
He stared in shock as the Adjucus they had heard upon their arrival leaped from out of the sands and towards Ichigo. It was massive, many times their size. Grimmjow cursed his pregnant and slightly starved body while he quickly went for Pantera to defend himself.
Without even looking backwards at the attacking Hollow, Ichigo drew Zangetsu and slashed out behind him, nearly slicing the Adjucus in two as if it were nothing more than an annoying ant in their way.
Grimmjow felt a moment of anger that he had become so weakened that he could no longer defeat such a weak creature in the manner Ichigo just had, but the scent of blood was quickly filling the air and the need to feed rushed upon him. Rational thought was tossed out the window as instinct reared its head to make sure he, and his young, survived. Moving about submissively he slowly approached the carcase, weary for any further signs of aggression from his Alpha.
Ichigo still looked pissed, but didn’t seem like he was about to deny his Beta a meal. His instinct assured that the meal was his to consume, he set about eating as quickly as he could before another could try and come to claim it or before his Alpha changed his mind. He completely ignored the look of disgust that crossed Ichigo’s face as he tore into the flesh and gorged himself.
Ichigo seemed willing to let the conversation drop for the moment and walked a small distance away, presumably to keep guard although in actual fact the scene was making him slightly sick to his stomach.
The meal didn’t take long to consume. One learned how to eat quickly least another come to challenge you for the meal. He felt rejuvenated and sleepy now that his belly was once more full. He approached Ichigo from the side so the teen had plenty of time to see and react to his presence.
“Do you think we’ll see Nel?” he asked, apparently willing to drop the previous topic about his sister.
“Probably not,” Grimmjow shrugged. “We should find shelter and head towards Las Noches after we have rested.”
“Yeah. I hope we find those food things quickly, preferably without running into Kurotsuchi. From what Ishida told me of him, and the few time I have run into him, I really don’t trust him much.”
“He’s a Shinigami, what’s to trust?” Grimmjow grunted.
“You’re a Hollow, what’s to trust?” Ichigo shot back smartly.
“Nothing but Instinct,” he answered the question without hesitation.
Ichigo didn’t have a come back for that and after a moment the teen just sighed and started walking towards the ruins. After a second, Grimmjow followed, catching up quickly and walking by his side. It was best to camp away from the kill as the scent of blood was still in the air. They walked in silence for some time before Ichigo finally broke it.
“How often will you need to eat now that we are here?” he questioned.
“The air here is thicker, so that meal should hold me for a few days before I start to weaken again from hunger. Not so sure about what I can expect from the forming cub though. I may need to eat sooner if it draws off too much energy. Truthfully, a Dominated Hollow that is abandoned by the Sire doesn’t have much hope of carrying to term.”
“Because they will be eaten?”
“Partially, but also because if the body gets too weak it will abort and expel the unfinished egg.”
“You mean miscarry?” Ichigo asked suddenly in concern.
“Yeah. Only the strong survive here, remember that. This isn’t your cozy human world, this is Hueco Mundo.”
Silence fell once more and he could tell that the teen seemed to be thinking deeply. The walk was getting exhausting and all he really wanted to do was curl up and digest his meal. Ichigo must have sensed his flagging because the teen suddenly stopped and declared they were making camp.
It was a good distance from the kill and if he could no longer smell the blood then most hollows would not be able to either. Ichigo pulled out what looked like some rope, two fold up poles and a large piece of brown cloth out of the bag Kisuke had given them.
It didn’t take long to get the inverted V shaped tent set up. It was small, there was barely room for the both of them and their heads would brush the ceiling sitting up, but it was more than enough to cover them while they slept. There were other items in the bag and Grimmjow watched as Ichigo rolled out a sleeping mat and pulled out a blanket as well.
“A portable den, useful,” he admitted reluctantly.
“Yeah, Urahara’s idea. Go ahead and rest if you want. I am going to grab something to eat and do some studying,” Ichigo offered.
“Just don’t get distracted. I don’t want to wake up because someone is turning me into its next meal,” he ordered.
“I won’t,” Ichigo promised.
He didn’t need a second invitation and crawled into the rather cozy little tent. With a full belly, reishi heavy air, the reiatsu of his Alpha but a few feet away and being surrounded by dark warmth, it was not difficult to doze off into a comfortable slumber.
He didn’t stir again until he felt Ichigo join him under the blanket, the teen’s reiatsu coursing wildly and obvious arousal poking into his thigh. When he dared to open an eye it was to stare into the golden ones of Feral Ichigo.
“I figured the atmosphere would affect him like this,” he thought in annoyance as he obediently bared his throat, showing his submission and acceptance of his Alpha’s demands.
Now that they were in Hueco Mundo, a world ran by instinct more than anything else, the need to have his Alpha’s scent markers on him was that much more important. With the strength of Ichigo’s reiatsu scent most Hollows would give him a wide berth and those that didn’t would become dinner.
Ichigo didn’t play with him for long and at least the teen had included the bottle of oil in his bag of gear. His Alpha took him from behind this time, ridding him hard and quick and making sure his scent was all over his Beta by rubbing their bodies together as much as was physically possible.
He slept deeply after that and didn’t wake again until he felt Ichigo stirring softly beside him. Not interested in mating again, he quickly pulled on the Yukuta and escaped the tent before his Alpha could awaken enough to demand attention. The scent markers were strong and there was no reason to refresh them again this quickly.
The sky looked no different than it ever had, black with nothing but a pale, crescent moon shinning. The sky wasn’t what instantly grabbed his attention in a jerk of sudden fear though. No, it was the fact that once he stepped outside the tent Ichigo’s reiatsu simply vanished as if it was no longer or ever, here.
He whirled about, a sense of relief washing over him as he realized that yes; the tent was still there even if it blended in so well he doubted he would see it if he walked more than ten feet away and didn’t know it was there.
“Clever,” he admitted reluctantly.
It made him feel a bit better to know that they could sleep relatively safely. The teen’s lack of control had been a small concern of his, but truthfully he was expecting Ichigo to act as very effective Hollow bait. There were always fools that believed they could take on anything and Ichigo was a walking target with his high level of reiatsu and complete lack of control. They would come for miles and the teen wouldn’t need to hunt for him, he would simply needed to defend them and the meals would pile up without the need to go looking for them.
Thank you Gollumsfriend, Adelica and Kazes for taking the time to review. I have been so busy lately that I wasn’t even sure I would get a weekly update out and I am quickly catching up to my prewritten work. Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
