Ch.19
Those two were at it again; he could sense the twining of their reiatsu. Kasai had told him of Tatsui's little secret and he had to admit he wasn't sure he approved; his hollow wasn't exactly daddy material. Then again Kasai wasn't "his" anymore, he had become a full fledged being, yet he had told Ichigo he would be able to fuse w
ith him again in only the most dire of circumstances. He was relieved that it had been Kasai and not actually him who had been drawn to Tatsuki, not that there was anything wrong with her. Ichigo recognized her beauty and loved her as a friend but he was drawn to members of his own sex, males; strong, powerful and beautiful males. Renji fascinated him with his exotic beauty, Byakuya with his stoic grace, Grimmjow with his wild fury; yes Seireitei had been nothing but eye candy to him. The breeze ruffled his hair as he turned picking up on the energy of someone nearby, someone very strong. His chocolate colored eyes narrowed as he realized who it was, knowing his two companions would be safe he quickly flash stepped to where the man was.
Starrk had been having minimal luck on his quest, something that irritated him. The houses were either burned or destroyed beyond repair, he had managed to find a few that would suffice and had made a mental note of where they were. Using sonido he was able to travel faster and was now miles from the house with hardly anything to show for it, rolling his shoulders to work the stiffness out he stilled as a sudden burst of rather angry reiatsu made itself known to him.
So he did survive… he thought feeling the vibrant teen zero in on his location.
Ichigo skidded to a stop, not surprised to find Starrk lazing in the sun.
"I was waiting for you" he said, pushing himself up on his elbows, regarding the teen with hooded eyes.
"Why did you live?" He asked annoyed, he could handle most espada but not this one. He didn't want any problems in the future and by the fact Starrk was alive meant he may have some.
"Let me ask you why you lived? Was it not myself and several others who secured your freedom?" His tone was stern but not unkind as he eased himself up and slowly walked toward Ichigo.
"Fine, I may owe you. What is it you want?"
"Me?" He raised an eyebrow "You came me boy."
"Only because I felt you. I don't want any trouble, I want to be left alone."
"As do we, however, I know there are other's with you. One who is a human and one who feels like you yet isn't."
"I don't have to explain to you espada." He spat out. Starrk waved his hand dismissing it.
"No you don't, but I was going to say that we should join up. Seven is better than three." Ichigo's eyes went wide.
"There are four of you?! I'm not walking into a den of four espada who probably want to kill me!" his outburst was met with a small smile and kind eyes.
"We won't harm you or your companions. And not all of us are espada, there is a shinigami whom Grimmjow has taken as his lover among us."
Grimmjow's alive?" Starrk nodded the affirmative and raked a hand through his unruly locks.
"He, myself and Nnoitra have found a house, it is in shambles but we want to repair it. Having Grimmjow and Byakuya sharing my bed is getting bothersome." He momentarily enjoyed the young man's face turning red as he grasped the name he had just said.
"Byakuya?!" Ichigo's face was a pretty shade of red. Byakuya was Grimmjow's lover?! What in the fresh hell was going on? His eyes blazing he sized up Starrk.
"What are you playing at?"
"I am not" he said, obviously bored with the conversation "playing at anything. If you wish to see Byakuya come with me, and please bring the other two. You are welcome to stay with us, it only makes sense." Ichigo thought for a moment, the espada had a point and Kasai was more than likely stronger than Starrk if push came to shove, and they did need to stick together. He knew Starrk and Nnoitra had semi-repented at the last moment along with Ulquiorra and had let him go after witnessing the torture of Uryu.
"Fine" he ground out "but I want your word we won't be harmed."
"You have my word, we will not harm you. We have more important things to consider than our differences Ichigo."
"Like what?"
"Survival, and in this case we all need to help each other." He couldn't argue with the espada's words, and for what he knew of Starrk was that he was probably the smartest espada when it came to common sense. Just this once, he vowed inwardly, would he agree with the stoic man.
He was panting and gasping for breath, out running Ulquiorra was no small feat and if he had time to relax one he would have been proud of. The dark headed espada had forgotten one important thing about him, he could mask his reiatsu completely thus allowing him to hide once he put enough distance between them. He knew that the red headed monkey would be just fine without him; after all in mating it was the beta who was more in need of the alpha than vice versa. He leaned back against the rock he propped himself up with. He was so tired he couldn't even sleep, it seemed as though no one could help him for he had brought this upon himself. He curled his knees to his chest and slowly entered his inner world.
"To what do we owe the pleasure?" The biting voice of Forincaras said almost instantly as he appeared in the lobby of a sterile hospital. Looking out the door he saw the jungle was still threatening to take over.
"I left" he said simply. It had the wanted effect as the zanpaktou spirit began to splutter in outrage.
"You can't leave him you fool!" Szayel just shrugged.
"Why not? I am the beta and he the alpha, I will be the only one to face repercussions. It's nothing I haven't done before." And that much was true in a way. As a beta he went into heat and would look for an alpha to mate with, but because he had decided he did not want children he instead had kept himself under lock and key until the urges went away. It drove him slightly mad to do this as the urge to mate was unbearable, his body sending out pheromones that every alpha within 100 miles could probably smell, and the steady constant nagging of lust in his body that would only be released when the seed of an alpha filled him or until he outlasted his heat. He had always done the latter, and during that time he could never get relief, no matter how many times he literally took the matter in his own hands.
"This is not like other times!" The spirit hissed, and a white nue appeared beside him tail slowly winding up the spirit's leg seductively. Szayel's golden eyes widened as he saw the nue step closer to his zanpaktou.
"Then what is it? Since you know so much but aren't imparting anything to me." His tone clipped he peered down his glasses at the pair. It was the monkey/snake nue that responded, significantly more patient sounding than his own spirit; but that was probably because its wielder was a lesser life form.
"You have imprinted on one another, you are bound now in body and spirit. One cannot be without the other."
It was hours later before he left his inner world after much discussion with his and Renji's zanpaktou, and he could honestly say he was in shock. His eyes fluttered open and he found his body had cramped up considerably and judging by the sun he would say it was around noon. Finally he was tired enough to go to sleep, crawling underneath an overhanging rock he closed his eyes, hoping when he woke up he would be able to process the information imparted to him.
Meanwhile Renji had just returned from a visit to his inner world, much to the relief of the jade eyed espada. Ulquiorra wouldn't admit it to anyone save for himself, but he was worried about both Szayel and Renji; his practical mind knew that to survive they needed to band together despite past transgressions. Szayel and Renji he had noted were not of the same mind, then again they were trash and that was what he had expected of trash, cocking his head he watched the red head's eyes flutter open gently, almost peacefully. The moment passed as quickly as it came and Renji was back to his oafish self, rolling his eyes the raven haired espada sat down cross legged next to him quietly, waiting for him to speak.
"Fucking Zabimaru, cryptic as always" he scratched the back of his neck "he said we need to find pinky, and quickly."
"Did he not say why?" Ulquiorra inquired evenly, he didn't like the sound of finding the scientist quickly.
"He did and didn't. He said his pain will become mine soon, and if one dies so does the other." Ulquiorra's jaw dropped, he knew of this…It hadn't happened in hundreds of years and yet, here it was. No, if this was the case Renji and Szayel were doomed unless they could manage to find the pink haired man.
"Catchin flies espada?" Renji cocked his head piercing Ulquiorra's eyes with an intense crimson gaze.
"If that is what your zanpaktou said to you, the situation is dire and we must find Szayel immediately." Renji's eyes went wide at the shakiness of Ulquiorra's voice, for all the adjectives he would use to describe the espada nervous and scared were two that would never have crossed his mind. He swallowed audibly and received a grave look from his companion.
"When do we start?"
"Now, but it's going to be hard."
"Why? Can't we just follow his reiatsu?"
"Normally yes, but Szayel is a master at hiding his. Even more so if he doesn't want to be found."
"I still don't see whats so dire? It's not unlike Zabimaru to fuck with me."
"He wasn't" Ulquiorra said eyeing him disapprovingly "Szayel ran off, and I tried to follow but he hid himself too well. I am wondering what part of if one dies so does the other that your insignificant grey matter you call a brain does not understand?" He snorted angrily, poor Szayel, mated to the stupidest shinigami that had ever graced the Seireitei. He watched as realization washed over the man's features, eyes widening and blinking rapidly as he began to sweat.
"Shit, we gotta go get that pink haired bastard NOW!"
