Chapter 17

    Saya started at Urahara with wide horrified eyes, yet he didn't even give her a chance to recover he just yanked her out of the way the second the hollow swung its arm down towards them. Saya felt Urahara pull her away and she finally broke out of the shock, turning towards him the two ran out of the house as the hollow destroyed half of the wall. "Shit, saya we really need to run." She nodded and the two ran down the unusually empty street, however the hollow was directly behind her, it bowled and lunged at them both but before it could even touch them an orange haired man showed up in all black.
    "Ichigo!?" The man grunted and looked at Saya. "Is it after her?" "I can only assume so." He scowled. "Tell me girl, can you see this creature?" "I can see the hollow. And my name is not girl!" He chuckled. "Then what the fuck is your name?" The hollow laughed at this. "Cute you think you can save her?" He turned his attention to the hollow and kicked it backwards. "Yeah, I think I can." Saya watched them and found herself wishing for Nnoitora or someone, she was alone, she felt absolutely alone. "Oi!" She looked up the thought process broken.
     "I asked you, what is your name!" She blinked as he asked the same question. "My name is Saya Zetsubō." He grinned. "Well Saya, Im gonna kill this hollow for you okay? You and old man Urahara Run as fast as you can." Saya looked at Urahara and saw a frown on his face. "Urahara? Urahara we need to go." He didn't move however, he just looked at
Saya, "saya." She blinked. "Saya you need to wake up and wake up now." She frowned "what are you talking about, I am awake!"
      He stared at her and shook his head. "No you aren't." She scowled and looked over at ichigo who was struggling against the hollow. "He's struggling." "He is, He's focused on protecting you." She frowned "that's why we need to run." "Call for him." She blinked. "What?" "Call for him Saya." She frowned, she wanted to run, they needed to run, and that's when the hollow broke past ichigo and her eyes widened, without even thinking she yelled. "Grimmjow!"
    She closed her eyes and shielded her face as the hollow lunged right for her. However, it didn't even touch her. In fact she suddenly felt extremely safe, peeking up she saw Grimmjow, his one arm was around her, and his other hand was holding back the hollow by its mask. "Ya have a lot of guts attacking her." The hollow trembled, it didn't wanna mess around with an angry Espada. While it was distracted ichigo sliced it half the same time Grimmjow released its face.
     He looked down at her and let out a sigh of relief when he saw she wasn't hurt. "I'm glad you ain't hurt Saya...." she blinked before she held onto him and hid her face against his chest, purring softly he wrapped both arms around her only to stiffen as a sword was pointed towards him. "Let her go Espada." He raised an eyebrow "why should I?" "Why are you here?" "She yelled for me idiot." Ichigo looked at Saya then at the Espada. "Let her go I won't Say it again."
    Saya moved so she was in front of Grimmjow and several eyes widened. "Saya?" "I won't let you hurt him." "Move, you have no reason to protect him." She didn't budge, she just stood her ground. "I'm not moving." Urahara went to interviene when a hand stopped him and he saw the rest of them. "Let lil sis handle this." Saya looked over at Nnoi and gave him a weak smile before turning to face ichigo. "I'm not moving, and you won't touch any of them!"
     He scowled once more and put the sword down. "They're espada's, they aren't human....so why do you care what happens to them!" She simply stared at ichigo, and while he should of had a point she didn't care. "You know my name, now whats yours before I answer your stupid question." He scowled once more and she swore this man had a permanent scowl. "Ichigo Kurosaki. Substitute soul reaper." She looked at him and didn't budge. "So you're a Shinigami...what makes you think though, that you have the right to tell me what to do huh?! These people you call espada's, I call them family! While I may not know the one behind me all that well, even I can tell he has to mean something to me!"
     His eyes widened at this, "you care for Espada's?" She glared at him as she nodded. "You saw it yourself, you saw him protect me!" He flinched, she had a point, the blue haired Espada had indeed protected her. "Fine, But one wrong move..." her eye twitched and before he could finish that sentence he found himself being slammed into a wall and he trembled. "How the fuck?" She smirked, "don't underestimate me." Nnoitora walked over and pulled her away from the Shinigami. "Come on lil sis." She looked over her shoulder and nodded as the two walked over to the others, even Urahara followed, lingering behind only for a brief moment.
     "You shouldn't piss that one off." "Huh?" "Don't get on Saya's bad side, and don't hurt them either, or you'll deal with me, if you survive Saya's wrath." "What are you going on about hat and clogs?" He chuckled. "You'll see in due time Kurosaki...all in good time." And then he was gone, leaving the substitute Shinigami all alone with his thoughts.
