You Bent My Triangle!
Chapter 12: Awakened—New Power, New Feelings
Hanataro and Kisuke knelt over Karin's body. The bow was using his kidou. The man was assisting anyway he could. The short white haired captain was feeling very useless. He decided he is probably needed elsewhere, like fighting against Ulquiorra Schiffer.
"I-I must go assist Ikkaku and Yumichika, please send Renji along," He shunpoed away.
Hanataro looked at Urahara with a worried expression, "She's lost so much blood. I-I don't think I can do anything." The boy laid his hand on her icy cheek. Her breathing was shallow, almost nonexistent. Her pulse was slowing down. Karin's body had given up.
Grimmjow frowned as he slipped from his waking state into blackness thinking it would have been nice to see her one last time. Ulquiorra was aware of his losing consciousness and prepared to obliterate his body with a cero. Ikkaku was still fighting but starting to lose his advantage without Grimmjow's constant taunting to distract the espada. He did distract the green eyed monster enough that his blast missed only by a few inches. Ulquiorra decided to concentrate on the two mosquitoes then go after the insignificant worm Grimmjow after. Then he'd find that woman.
At this time the young captain showed up. Followed by Renji, he had a dark expression on his face. He chose not to reveal the fact that Karin was dying. It was not the time.
"That's enough playing around, we must fight as a team, Schiffer is too strong for any one of us alone to defeat," Hitsugaya was very annoyed. Ikkaku and Yumichika seemed to be treating this as a game, when a girl that he cared deeply for was hanging on the brink because of that monster. He did not wait for a signal from the others that they had understood. He called his bankai with no hesitation and his dragon attacked Ulquiorra. Ikkaku went in for an attack, Yumi joined and Renji also calling his final release sent his sword in for the kill.
Karin's pulse faded, Hanataro did chest compressions. He breathed for her but it was useless, she seemed to be gone. The boy had tears running down his cheeks. Urahara looked down stonily, "Damn! Damn-it!" The man growled through gritted teeth.
"I-I'm so sorry, I-I j-ju-just c-couldn't s-s-save her," the boy stuttered and gasped between tears. The man put his hand on the boy's head letting him know it was not his fault. Hanataro wept over the lifeless form of the girl. He placed his palm over her half lidded eyes and closed them. As he did this he felt a painful jolt go up his arm, knocking him backward into Urahara. There was static in the air and a whiff of ozone. A low hum emitted from somewhere near the girl. Then a nauseating pulse of energy went through the men. Hanataro and Urahara were both driven to the ground.
The girl's eyes snapped open almost robotically. The energy pulsed like a giant heartbeat, sending waves of pain through the soul reaper and the former soul reaper's bodies. Karin was standing. She grabbed Hanataro by the collar and lifted him up. Her icy blue eyes pierced his black eyes, "Where is he!" She shook the boy violently, "I can't feel him!" She growled menacingly. Urahara was up and trying to intervene. The girl let go of his collar and punched the man sending him flying off into the forest. She once again lifted the boy off the ground and held him over her head, "I'll only ask one more time, where is he?" Hanataro helplessly pointed in the direction of the battle. The girl tucked him under her arm and saidoned off to the battle.
The four were being thoroughly thrashed by the angry Schiffer. He was in his second release and was angry as all get out over their interference. He was still a little irrational, therefore even more dangerous than usual. Ikkaku was the first to fall. He was pinned against a tree having a close range cero blast directly to his stomach, nearly liquefying his internal organs. He needed medical attention immediately or he was a goner. Toshiro was nearly out of the game with only a few ice petals left on his flower. Renji was breathing hard, but still good for the fight. Yumichika was breathing heavily his only saving grace was the fact that Ulquiorra had deemed him unworthy of his attention (oh he'd get around to annihilating the pest, but he was going to deal with the threats in order of importance him being last on the list Toshiro being first).
There was a crackle in the air. A very pissed off Karin sporting a brand new arrancar aura flew right through the fight unscathed and went right to the crumpled body of her lover. She set the young healer down. Her eyes were hard and stern, "Grimmjow! Wake up. She lifted his torso to look at the damage. He was not moving, though shallow breaths escaped his lips. She grabbed the boy who was about to run over to help Ikkaku. "Fix him! NOW!" Her eyes promised a world of pain if he failed to comply.
He could not use his zanpaktou until he had released the energy it had gathered from Karin's wounds. Hanataro set his blade aside since he really could not launch an attack at the enemy without risking one of the three shinigami surrounding the arrancar. He began performing a healing kidou. Karin watched intently as the superficial wounds closed up first. Then more threatening wounds like the deep gash that ran diagonally across his chest. The hollow hole also healed it still seemed to be closing. There was almost no hole left only a defined six pack that looked a little irritated. The blue haired arrancar's breathing became more normalized and Karin finally allowed Hanataro to attend to Ikkaku who had begun to cough up blood. He rummaged around in his medical bag and fished out an energy pill he popped it into his mouth as he ran over to help their fallen ally. Karin seethed on the inside but maintained her calm exterior. She was sure that Grimmjow was going to be fine, but the other was going to pay dearly. She launched herself into the fray.
Ulquiorra was pinned against a tree by the angry Karin who seemed to have gained immense strength. She was still insignificant compared to Schiffer in his final form, but she had surprised him, not only him but Yumichika, Renji, and Toshirou.
The arrancar smiled with realization, "So you decided to come back and finish what we started earlier." He said with a lusty smile.
"You mean trying to kill me, or rape me?"
"You'd be no good to me dead. I think you'd make an excellent..." He trailed off his expression changed from lust, to confusion, then anger. His eyes moved to the now stirring Grimmjow. The man lazily lifted his head and met angry eyes.
"You bastard," Ulquiorra starring intently at Grimmjow, "You have tainted her!"
Suddenly Karin's resolve wavered. The tables were turned. Ulquiorra pinned her to the same tree he had pinned Grimmjow too earlier, "you reek of his aura, woman!"
The stunned soul reapers finally snapped out of their daze when Karin was no longer in control. Unfortunately they couldn't attack him without endangering her. Schiffer was aware, "Shinigami, I suggest you drop your swords before I decide to crush her throat. He tightened his grip on her delicate neck. Karin's eyes flickered. The icy blue faded to the warm blackish brown that was natural. Her aura became normal. Ulquiorra sniffed at her, "Ah, so that was only temporary. You borrowed from him power that was beyond your pathetic limits. I am angry with you, but I still would like to have you in my bed." To drive the point home he nuzzled her cheek and began kissing her. Karin shuddered and tried to push away, it was too late to do anything her temporary power was gone, she was less then insignificant next to him, "Since I have what I want there is no point in prolonging my stay, come woman," He tore the fabric of space and stepped through the rip dragging a protesting Karin with him.
Toshiro was too shocked to do anything. A low and dangerous growl was being emitted from behind the captain, "Why in the hell didn't you stop him! You know what he intends to do to her!" Toshiro nodded.
"Open up a portal and we will go after them," The other's nodded.
"Wait! You can't just go barging into Los Noches without a plan," the tardy Urahara finally showed up.
"Shut the hell up you piece of garbage, Weren't you people supposed to be protecting her. He is probably ripping her clothes off as we speak!" The blue haired one was frantic, "I'll go by myself if I have to."
"You won't get very far, you're injured," Urahara pointed to the large wound that was reopening on his chest.
"That wound is superficial compared to the internal damage, you won't survive in another fight against him," This time Hanataro was speaking, "Please let us take you back so I can finish healing you." They looked over to see the small boy supporting Ikkaku though the man was a good foot, maybe eighteen inches, taller them him.
"We need Ichigo," Renji spoke up.
"Already called him," Urahara looked at the surprised group, “When you brought her to the shop. He will be along soon. Let’s regroup at the shop and wait for him.
Karin was almost too indignant to be frightened. Ulquiorra saidoned to his room her in his arms. He seemed to enjoy embracing her. He changed back to his 'normal' form once they were safely in his sleeping chamber. She was tossed carelessly onto his bed. He followed. He was on top of her administering surprisingly delicate kisses. This softness was unappreciated by his captive, and soon to be mate. He planned to erase any thoughts of the weakling arrancar from her memory.
"You need to bathe," He suddenly stated running his hand through her tangled mop of blood encrusted hair. He liked the smell of her blood, but there was the smell of the other (Grimmjow) on her too, "I suppose we both need a bath," He grinned (yes actually grinned) Karin put him in a very good mood. He grabbed her arm and dragged her off to his bathroom. He had a rather large bath tub. He began to strip the poor girl.
"No!" She gasped as he shed her of her torn blood soaked shirt leaving her in nothing but a bra and her skirt. Ulquiorra ran his finger over her back. Toying with the hooks on her bra. He slipped his finger under the elastic and snapped the fabric. Karin jumped away, only to be brought back to face her captor. He looked down at her chest, she was not large chested, but her proportion suited her petite frame. The man smiled realizing that he was taller than her. Being short in stature had never really bothered him, but he liked being bigger than his little toy. He unfastened the garment and let it fall to the ground. Her arms automatically moved to cover her chest. He frowned, but let her have a modicum of modesty. That would change soon, he would change her. He reached her waistband and slowly removed her skirt and panties in one motion. Her shoes were already gone left on the floor in Urahara‘s shop. He bent down. His eyes aligned with her most private area, now fully exposed to him. He removed her socks, not taking his eyes of that other place. Karin shivered as much from being naked in a cold bathroom as from being stared at. The man had rid her of her last shred of clothing, but continued to stare intently at her not moving from his position. For a moment they both had the same thought going through their mind, ‘He's/I'm going to just take me/her right here and now.’
Karin tensed up she felt assaulted already, but he shook his head and turned away from her. He turned on the faucet intending to draw a bath for her. He decided to be kind and allow her to bathe herself. He was tempted to take her in the tub. He had many erotic images running through his head. For a moment he was disturbed by this, this lack of control. She had awakened his emotions. She opened the gates and they all flowed out. He would never be able to lock them all away again. He was feeling more than passion, he was starting to feel compassion. He smiled at her tiny body, he still planned to screw her, but he decided to be nice about it. He went to find her some fresh clothing. Surprisingly his uniforms were all too big. He chuckled to himself. He was going to have to leave her there, he locked his door so she could not leave and no one could enter. He left her to wash away the past, hopefully.
Karin wanted to deny him his desire for her to be clean, but the dried blood was beginning to really annoy her. Her scalp was really itchy. She stank of blood and dirt. Ulquiorra's private bathroom was well organized and well stocked. She easily found a towel, wash cloth, soap and shampoo. She gingerly stepped into the bath. It was very hot, scalding away the physical memories of him touching her.
The seven of them made it back to Urahara's shop. Grimmjow was extremely upset, but they were able to reason with him. They found a pissed off Ichigo waiting for them, not so easily reasoned with (strange, no?). He was really extremely pissed off when he realized that they let Schiffer get away with is sister. Urahara and Toshirou had to restrain the angry vizored. He was changing into his hollow self, but they explained to him the situation. Their explanation failed to calm him but only make him angrier.
"What!" Ichigo exclaimed, "You're telling me she's fucking arrancar bait walking! Ulquiorra Schiffer has probably has raped my innocent little sister…I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL ALL OF YOU!"
He paused from his struggles, "First, let go of me you bastards, We're going to retrieve Karin, then I'll kill you all after she's safe."
Hitsugaya let go of Ichigo. He jerked out of Urahara's grip as well. His other sister had the ill luck to choose that moment to interrupt. She as promised, brought dinner for the group. She was unaware of the absence of her twin, "How is Karin? Is she feeling better? I really need to talk to her. Oh Ichigo, what are you doing here? I need to talk to you too, I was going to call you." Everybody looked at her. Her cheeks pinked.
"Yuzu, Karin needs to rest," Ichigo said with unintended venom. She looked worried, but seemed distracted. She frowned and looked at her feet she spoke so quietly that only Ichigo who she was standing next to could hear her, "It-it can wait. I'll just leave the food here." She set her basket on the ground and walked away. Ichigo frowned.
Captain Hitsugaya spoke up after she left, "Very well, I take complete responsibility for any harm that has and might have befallen your sister. I accept your terms, and after we ensure her safety I will take full responsibility for allowing her to be placed in danger." Ichigo looked at the stoic little captain. He had a stony expression, but his voice gave away his despair, "Grimmjow, if you would, please open a gargantua." He sighed heavily, ‘If there is a force out there with any compassion, a god, fate, luck, please smile upon Karin. I pray that no permanent damage has befallen her. I wish no hurt had ever come her way. If I weren't such a fool I might have been able to rescue her from this whole ridiculous, repulsive situation.’
Karin sat waiting for the arrancar to return. He had taken her clothing, not wanting her in those filthy rags any longer. She was wrapped in an over sized towel. She felt a wave of exhaustion finally hit her. She fought sleep like her life depended on it, it probably did. Sleep won in the end, her 'work out' and the hot bath combined to sap the last of her energy.
Ulquiorra came back to see the girl sleeping beneath a loosely wrapped towel. He removed the towel and began to dress her in the small female uniform he had 'borrowed' from one of the fraccion wandering around the corridors. She wouldn't need it anymore. He took it from a rude female named Kasey. He really had no idea who she belonged to and he didn't care. He removed her uniform before devouring her.
He was healed and though the uniform was a bit snug it looked very pleasing on her tiny frame. It was a little to revealing for Karin's taste, probably. He liked the way it looked on her. He readjusted her in to a more comfortable position on the bed, and covered her with a downy comforter. He then went to clean himself up.
After bathing and changing to fresh clothes (that looked exactly like the ones from before) he climbed into bed with the sleeping teenager. He decided she looked to quiet and precious to be disturbed. He simply wrapped his arms around her tiny waist and held her tightly against his chest. He too drifted off to a peaceful and dreamless sleep. He did not realize just how powerfully pleasing her aura was. He smiled, almost a childish smile, while other males were suddenly aware of a very attractive essence that was beginning to permeate the hallways around Ulquiorra's quarters, and it was slowly moving outward. There were several weaker male hollows haunting the corridor outside his room. Seemingly sniffing the air. They all had a love sick look on their faces, but made no move to invade the powerful espada's room. They each decided they would hide out and try to break in the next time he left. It would be only a matter of time before the other espada took notice and all hell would break loose in Los Noches. Still Ulquiorra slept on, ignorant of the trouble he was in for.
Grimmjow opened the portal to Heuco Mundo. They stepped into one of the many hallways in Los Noches. He took the lead seeming to know exactly where he was going. He was a man on a mission, now knowing about the aphrodisiac she unknowingly produced he was even more worried, most of the really powerful hollows were male. This spiritual 'pheromone' she puts off could possibly even turn a fruit like Sazyel into a raging heterosexual. He wasn't Grimm's biggest worry. Number five, Nnoitra's living quarters were the closest to Ulquiorra's he'd be the first to notice the new reiatsu. He was aggressive, he wasn't as strong as Ulquiorra, but that didn't mean he wouldn't try to harm Karin. Thinking of the horrible possibilities caused the espada to quicken his already breakneck pace. The others almost lost him.
BOO! You thought I was going to let Grimm die again? PTTTTTTTTT! He died once don’t you think that’s enough? I bet you thought Karin was going to die also. Huh? Well nope.
