A/N: Hello, guys. Sorry for not updating the 'Another Chance'. I need to be inspired in order to write. While thinking ideas about 'Another Chance', this idea suddenly pops out. A GrimmIchi story, to be precised. An idea about them being feline hybrids gave me a break on 'Another Chance' so I created this. I've got so many ideas that I wrote a list so I won't forget them. But of course this idea is first.
So. On with it.

Summary: Alas, the most dreaded day that Ichigo hates has come. The day he will turn 16 and experience his first heat cycle as a female type tiger hybrid. He may be a male in body but he's a female when it comes to hormones and he releases a sweet scent only his future mate can smell. What will he do when a certain blue haired panther hybrid caught wind of his unique scent?
First Heat
Chapter 1
(Third Person's POV)

The sun's light spilled all over the room through an open window where a soft breeze also enters. A large bed can be found at the center of the room. Silky, thick blankets and soft, large pillows covered a lithe form of a orange-haired tiger hybrid. Orange ears atop his head twitched when he heard footsteps outside his room, or, in his opinion, called it den. He tenses when the footsteps he heard earlier stops. Then suddenly, the door swung open and out came his fool of a father readying a roundhouse kick and shouting at the top of his lungs,
"ICHIGOOOO! GOOD MORNING MY BEAUTIFUL,ADORABLE AND CUTE SON. YOUR MOMMY IS LOOKING FOR YOU AND IT'S TIME FOR BREAKFA- OOF." his father said as he receives a kick to his face and falls flat to the floor with a loud 'thud'.
"Shut the hell up, oyaji*". The orange-haired hybrid, named Ichigo, said. "I told you not to jump me at mornings." he added while he shape-shifted into his feline form covered in bright orange fur with black thin stripes(just imagine a tiger...that's Ichigo) and stretches, in feline fashion, of course.
"My beautiful son, daddy just wants you to be ready and prepared for your special season." Isshin said as he got up and sways his long, black tail from side to side while rubbing the sore spot on his face.
"What special season do you mean?" the orange-haired hybrid asked while he shifted back to his hybrid form and scratched his head as he stood up and fixed his bed and prepares himself for breakfast.
"My son, what I meant is your upcoming 16th birthday and your most awaited first heat cycle, and the time where you will find a dominant mate too." his father said while grinning.
Ichigo's eyes widen at the mention of the heat cycle. He heard rumors about how male type submissive hybrids are being sought due to being a rarity. Many dominant and aggressive alphas are wanting to have one as a mate. Well sucks for them because Ichigo does not want to be mated...yet.
"Uhh..dad...I think I'm not yet ready for this mating kind of thing." he said while fidgeting. His orange tiger ears drooped on his head while his orange striped tail was tucked in between his legs.
Isshin frowns and notices his son's uneasiness at the topic so he didn't pressed any further.
"Okay." he said while giving his son a gentle smile. "I won't pressure you in finding a dominant mate on your first day of heat but I hope you will find one that really cares for you."
Ichigo relaxes at his father's gentle words and smiles at him in return.
"Thanks Dad." he said.
"Anything for you, son." his dad replied. "Oh, and if you find your future mate, tell him to go easy on you. Your a fragile one." he added with goofy grin. "Daddy does not want you to break while you and him are matin- OOF", he cuts off as Ichigo kick him out of the door and ends up with a 'crash' against the stone cold, rough wall of the den.
"I AM SO NOT HAVING THIS COVERSATION WITH YOU, GOAT FACE" he yelled as he stormed out of his room with irritation.
Isshin got up slowly and yelled back dramatically,shedding fake tears, "MY SON! WHY A GOAT? WE'RE A TIGER HYBRID FAMILY! I'M A TIGER. MY SON! WAIT FOR DADDY!"

Blue skies stretched above; the chilly air of the morning passes by creating a soft melody in the wee hours of morn; trees swaying side to side as if dancing in rhythm to the soft melody created by the wind. The forest animals are beginning to do their usual activities and above the cliff, on the branch of the tallest willow tree, sat a blue panther hybrid. Cyan orbs gaze down at the beautiful, wide and green view. His large and blue feline form laying atop the branch, lazily. Blue-green ears twitched when he heard a movement behind him. He lifted his head and began to sniff. He smirked when a familiar scent entered his nose.
"What do you want, Nelliel?" he shouted while flicking his tail back and forth in annoyance.
At the same time he asked, a green blur jumped out into the clearing. This panther is smaller than the other, green fur covering most of it's body except the stomach area, the tip of it's ear and tail wherein it's color is white.
"GRIMMY!" the green panther, now named Nelliel suddenly said. "I was looking for you. Dad and Mom wants to talk to you."
The blue panther huffed. "What do they want to talk about?"
"I don't know." Nelliel replied in a sing-song voice. "Why don't you go and find out."
The blue panther rolled his eyes. " Hmph. Too boring. Tell them... I don't wanna go." he replied.
A bright green light covered Nelliel's whole feline form; popping of bones can be heard as she shifted into her hybrid form while the bright light dimmed out. A curvaceous woman with long, green hair appeared in her place. Covered in dark green kimono with a pink sash tied around her small waist and her feet clad in white waraji to finish her attire. Her green feline ears twitching while she closed her eyes. A tick appeared on her forehead. Then suddenly, an aura full of killing intent filled the air.
The blue panther shivered. Ah, shit.
"Grimmjow." she said in a low but serious tone. "You are being called to meet with Dad and Mom. I suggest you go now before,-" she stopped and thought for awhile, then her lips curved into a grin that sends shiver on your back. "or better yet, stay. I could use some help to blow off some steam." After a few seconds of silence,
"Can I pass?" he asked. "I still wanna live, big sis."
"..."
"O-okay. I'm going. I'm going."
The blue panther named Grimmjow hopped down from the willow tree's branch and started his way back to their den.
This is gonna be a long day. he thought.

The heavenly smell of ham, eggs and bacon hits my nose as I entered the kitchen area. Standing there in front of me is a beautiful female tiger hybrid with a long faded orange hair,who is humming a soft tune while cooking our breakfast.
Boy, it smells really good. I thought as I walked forward to the said lady and wrapped my arms around her. "Good morning, okaa-san*." I greeted, and gives her kiss on her cheek.
"Oh, Ichigo." My Mom said as she turned around, raises her left hand and ruffles my hair. "You're here. Go wait at the dining area. I'll bring breakfast in a few."
"Okay, mom." I answered as I went to the dining area, pulled out a chair and sat down while waiting for the heavenly food to come.
A few minutes has passed when I heard a loud 'crash' from the other side of our den, accompanied by a string of curses from a certain older brother of mine, shouts of 'please stop it, Dad' from my two little imouto* and a very loud 'crash'...again.
"Oh my. What was that?" My mother said as she entered the dining area, carrying our breakfast to the table.
"Oh. Leave it mom. It's just Goat Face pissing off otouto*." I answered while laying my head on the table. Mom just smiled as she set the table. Then,
"Can you call for them, Ichigo?" she asked, hopefully.
Well, can't say no to mother so I just stand and said,
"Okay, mom. Be right back."
And walked to where the commotion was.
Seriously, it's early in the morning. Will there be peace inside this den just for once?

To say that my life would get any worse is an understatement when Goat Face tackled me from behind while I was stretching inside my own room. I let out a bunch of colorful words to cover my embarrassment. Tch. This damned guy. Seriously, what kind of fucked up father would tackle his own son for the good for nothing reason of preparing and readying you for the upcoming first heat cycle. This brainless bastard.
"SHIROOO! MY ELDEST SON! I YIELD! DADDY YIELDS! PLEASE!" he whined as I stomped my right foot on his back, hard.
"Yea' righ', and yer gonna tackle me 'gain, eh?" I hissed back while grinning evilly, still not taking my right foot off him.
"Serves him right." a voice said from our front.
I looked up and saw my little imouto standing their in front of us. Arms crossed on her chest as she continue to stare. She had a short black hair, stopping near her shoulders, black tiger ears like Goat Face with a matching tail swaying behind her. She opened her mouth and said,
"Good morning, Shiro-nii."
I just grinned from where I'm standing and answered,
"Same to ye Karin-chan."
Karin-chan is like me who hates Goat Face and she sometimes join, in beating our eccentric father.
"So...What did Goat Face do to you...that it...ends up...like that? She asked while she gestures to our current predicament.
"Oh, 'his?" I asked. "Goat Face tackled me while I was stretching an' we wrestled for a bit an' 'his happened." I said while putting pressure on my right foot as I continue to stomp on our father.
"EEEPPPP!" Dad yelps. "SHIROOO! I WON'T DO IT AGAIN. I PROMISE. I PROMISE. I YIELD, SON. I YIELD."
I just stared and decided to let him go. That's where I created a big mistake. The moment I let go of Dad, he kicked me straight to my stomach. I gasped as I fell down. Shit, wrong move.
"What going on?" a timid voice asked. I looked up and saw Yuzu-chan* behind Karin-chan. Yuzu has a light brown hair. Her tiger ears and tail are the same in color like her hair.
Karin looked from behind her. "Good morning, Yuzu." she said while giving her a boring look.
Yuzu sighed. "Are Dad and Shiro-nii at it again? She asked, directing the question to Karin.
"Yep. Goat Face is being an idiot again." Karin replied with a bored tone.
"AHAHAHAHAHA! SON. WHAT DID I TELL YOU? DON'T BELIEVE WHAT THE ENEMY SAYS. WHAT IF THAT ENEMY IS TRYING TO CLAIM YOU. I TOLD YOU DON'T LET YOUR GUARD DOWN." He continue to laughed at me while I lay motionless on the floor.
"Tch, b-bastard." I said as I rubbed my stomach to ease the pain.
"C'mon son. Stand up. We're not yet finish." he said as he shifted to offense.
I scowled at him. "I'm gonna kick yer ass, Goat Face." I bared my fangs at him while trying to stand up.
"HERE I COME! SHIROOOOOOO!" he screamed as he rushed to deliver a flying kick at me.
"C'mon Goat Face, show me wha' ye got." I taunted as I ready my defense while giving him an insane grin.
We charge at each other. Exchanging kicks and punches and dodging. We're at it for a few minutes...until,
"Please stop it, Dad." Karin-chan and Yuzu-chan both shouted.
"OH, SHIT!" I mentally shouted, then, it was followed by a very loud 'crash'...again.

WHAT THE HELL! Those are the words I first thoughted when I saw my Dad and my older brother wrestling on the floor. Goat Face was lying on his stomach, squirming, while Shiro-nii is shouting curses, baring his fangs and using the headlock technique on him. Then for a just a second, I just snapped.
"WOULD THE TWO OF YOU STOP IT?!" I shouted in irritation. "For Mom's sake. Act like the adults you are. Not some damned five year old kids who knew nothing but act like idiots."
After I yelled, I notice all eyes are on me and the two idiots stop their 'play'. Well, that surely got their attention. "Now that the both of you stopped your silly and nonsense acts, Mom sent me to tell you that breakfast is already on the table. If one of you say a word on our way to the dining area, I will personally kick your ass. Do you understand?" Both Goat Face and Shiro-nii nodded. I was surprised that Shiro-nii did not say a word when I scolded both him and Goat Face.
"Oh and that does not apply to the both of you." I gently smiled as I directed that statement to Karin and Yuzu.
Both wear a dumbfounded expression as I turned to them. I sighed. Who wouldn't after my outburst. After a few seconds, Yuzu was the first to snap out of her stupor,
"Oh, sorry for that Ichi-nii, I was just shocked and...ah...Good morning to you too." She greeted and gave me a warm smile.
"Ah, Good morning to you too Yuzu-chan." I replied as I motioned for the four of them to follow me to the dining area. Once, we arrived to our destination, Mom greeted us.
"Oh you lot, you better eat now. The breakfast won't stay hot." She motioned for us to sit down, not long after we were seated, Goat Face jumped out of his chair, hugged Mom and began to shed fake tears. And there goes the child act...again. I sighed.
"Oh, Masaki it's terrible. Our children are so cruel to me. They don't even care and respect me now." He continued to rant out. Oh, kill me now.
"How will we care and respect for you if you keep on acting like a damned brainless five year old?" Karin huffed out while scowling.
Goat Face stopped for a moment and faced us, then continued again.
"Oh, Masaki. They all hate me now." He whined.
I sighed for how many times already.
Life really is complicated. When will this end? I just really want a peaceful day, even for once. I'll do anything for it. Just even for once-
I was snapped out from my thoughts by Mom...calling me.
"go...Ichigo...Ichigo, son? Are you all right?" She asked, her eyes filled with concern. I looked at her for a brief moment before answering,
"Yeah, mom. I'm fine."
Giving her a reassuring smile, I then picked up my chopsticks and began to eat. I first picked the eggs from my plate, followed by the ham and lastly, the bacon. Before I open my mouth to shoved the strips of bacon dangling on my chopsticks, Mom said something I would not have expected.
"Could we have a mother-son talk after breakfast together with Shiro?" She asked hopefully.
If I was shocked, I didn't show it. I just covered it with a tired but kind smile in response to her. "Yeah, I have free time after this." I replied. My guess is...she wants to talk about that 'dreaded' topic. But I hoped it's not that. I was about to say something but Shiro-nii beat me to it.
"Ye wan' to talk to us abou' our heat cycle, righ' Mom? He bluntly stated. I fought the urge to face-palmed because of his bluntness. Everyone at the table except me stopped eating and looked at Mom. I took a peek at her, wondering what will her expression be and was surprised to see her...smiling. Yeah, she was just smiling at Shiro-nii's statement.
"Yes. Your're right Shiro. I want to talk about 'it' after breakfast, if you don't mind." She replied with a soft expression.
Shiro-nii just shrugged and continued eating. "Yea', I don't mind." He replied.
For the umpteenth time, I sighed. Why do I have a twin older brother who does not even care about anything related to that?
