THAT ONE THING

Chapter two here... It's quite short but I hope you enjoy it. I love this fic even though its not long. It's just heartmelting, a different Grimmjow...


His hand drew his Zanpakutou out, preparing to jump at Aaroniero, when suddenly the girl twitched.

He froze and watched.

Aaroniero frowned, "You're still moving?" and lowered her to eye level. Rukia pointed her broken sword at him.

The Espada smiled , "What are you going to do with a broken katana? It's pathetic, stop it,"

Grimmjow watched as the Shinigami girl's hands shook, her voice barely more than a whisper, "San no mae… Shirafune,"

White blade sprouted from the broken edge, cutting through Aaroniero's skin, right between his eyes.

"You're not Kaien dono!" she shouted, her voice lined with anger and fear, "Sayonara, Espada!"

Aaroniero Arruieri was no more.

The sixth Espada watched as Rukia stumbled to the icy ground, her shaking arm still holding her Zanpakutou hilt.

He turned his back, walking outside when he stopped.

"Tch," he muttered and went to her. She was already unconscious, blood leaking from her wound. Grimmjow observed the gaping hole in her stomach and put his hand on it.

He wasn't good at healing, but he could at least surpress the blood a little.

Blue sparks danced from his fingers, closing the wound just a little.

Grimmjow stood up. That's it. He couldn't do anything more.

The blue haired Espada regarded the limp form in front of him. Her face was streaked with blood, and exceptionally pale.

You do what you can, he thought, You should go.

Grimmjow turned away, but he still couldn't left her. She would die. If he brought her to the Arrancar Healers, Aizen will cut him up for sure, and he didn't want that.

It's your own fault for developing this unnecessary burst of emotions, he scolded himself. That's when he heard a voice.

Ulquiorra's voice rang clearly through the microphone he used.

"Attention," said the usual calm voice, "Four captains have found their way to Hueco Mundo."

"Who?" came Halibel's emotionless monotone.

"Kuchiki Byakuya. Zaraki Kenpachi. Unohana Retsu, and Kurotsuchi Mayuri," Ulquiorra answered, "They brought along their Fuku Taicho, and Hanatarou from the fourth squad."

"Position?" Grimmjow barked into his microphone.

"Kuchiki Byakuya's going to his little sister, as usual," Ulquiorra replied, "The others are still in the desert. They wouldn't come in a while,"

The link closed and Grimmjow breath a sigh of relief.

Her brother was coming. He could save her. There was no need for him to try healing her more.

Grimmjow turned his back around and started walking toward the exit. Only at the entrance did he paused and look back once more.

"Try not to die," he muttered, before disappearing to the dark.

But he still stayed there, hidden behind the pillars, and watched as Kuchiki Byakuya strode inside and healed Rukia. His heartbeats slowed down when he saw her wounds closing up.

She'll survive.

His mind turned away to another well-worn track, now it's time to finish Kurosaki Ichigo up. That orange-haired bastard.

"Nii-sama," he cou


ld hear Rukia saying. The way she said those words… nobody ever speak to him that way. Everyone just either command him around like a donkey or feared him.

Again Grimmjow shook the thoughts away and strode across the white sands to the direction of Ichigo's Reiatsu.

Now, for a fight, he thought, clenching his fists.

He closed his ears against the conversations of the two siblings somewhere in the ruins.

It was his own fault in the first place, for letting his heart weakening. There was no need for emotions for an Espada. Just thirst for fight.

But Grimmjow couldn't deny it. Saving Kuchiki Rukia… Doing that good deed… it left an impression in his heart.

A peaceful impression. A warm feeling somewhere inside.

A smile tugged on his lips. Perhaps nobody else couldn't see it, but he felt it, anyway.

"Thanks," he said, though he knew the Shinigami girl couldn't hear it. She would probably still hate him, not knowing that he had healed her in the first place.

But that was okay. She brought life back to him.

Making him do that one thing.

Good deed.
