This is a beta'd chapter I hope that you guys like it because it was obviously hard for Crowned Knight to rewrite. I am really greatful so thank you. I am planning to rewrite most of my older chapters.

In a vast white desert which spread too far for the normal human eye to see was a young child. The child was a young orange haired boy that was sniveling in fear at the giant creature before him.

"Momma!"

The creature snarled at the little boy as he called out for his mother while looking at the creature with terror. The little human boy looked familiar to the creature, but that didn't matter at all. All that mattered was she was starving and a little morsel was dropped at her feet. She was NOT going to give up this opportunity.

Hearing the snarl once again and seeing the creature step closer to him the boy stumbled back in fright. Where was his momma? What was this thing in front of him? The boy was so caught up in his thoughts and the creature in her own hunger that neither noticed that the boys eyes were turning an odd golden color.

If this exchange had been seen by any other person who had any knowledge of what happened to a human when they died they would have quickly figured out that something was wrong with the boy. They would have known that the boy had no hole indicating that his chain of fate had been torn out which ment that he shouldn't even have been in the stark white desert of Hauco Mundo.

However this fact was lost on the two as the horrendous creature prepared to pounce on the young boy with all intentions of making him her next meal. The boy let out a terrified scream before shielding his face with his arms. Instead of the mind numbing pain the boy had been expecting there was only a loud shriek coming from the area where the monster was. The boy hesitantly uncovered his eyes in order to see what prolonged his death only to stare in horrified amazement at the large cat monster standing on top of what used to be his mother.

Tears slowly rolled down his chubby face as he stared in complete horror at the creature that had just killed his mother.

"M-Momma?"

The boy's mother did not respond but the giant cat creature turned towards the little boy. Trembling, he quickly tried to make his escape only to let out a small yelp as the cat creature appeared right in front of him. The boy fell onto his backside in surprise at the cat's sudden appearance, the cat only growled down at the terrified boy in response.

-Grimmjow's Point of View-

'What the hell is this?'

This was the only thought that was circling through the cat creature's mind, also known as Grimmjow Jeagergaques, as he observed the little cub in front of him. Leaning his head towards the boy he took in a deep whiff of the boy's smell, disregarding the child's obvious discomfort. Once he was finished sniffing the child he let out a frustrated snarl.

'This cub smells like a hollow and one of those soul reaper bastards! There's no human scent at all and the soul reaper scent is faint… Maybe he was a hollow captured by the soul reapers?'

Grimmjow quickly inspected the cub to see if there was any indication of a hollow hole but only found that the boy's lips were turning blue from the cold. After a quick debate in his mind he went behind the child and snatched it up by the scruff of its neck.

'Heh. This little thing is mine now. Fuck the parents finder's keeper's after all.'

However his plan didn't seem to bode to well with the child who started thrashing once the giant cat picked him up. The struggles soon ceased as the boy got colder and colder but by that time Grimmjow had found the perfect den for him and his cub the 'cub' had fallen unconciousness.

Noticing that his cub had lost consciousness Grimmjow hurried inside his den to the back wall before digging a small hole for him and the cub to fit into. He then curled into a small ball with the cub nestled comfortably in the middle before proceeding to lick the boy in order to clean the cub.

"God damnit I just found you so don't think you can die so easily runt!"

-3 Days later-

"Ichi! Fucking hell just nurse from me!"

The cat growled at the cub with worry clearly evident from his tone. The little runt was being so difficult!

"I don't wanna! It's weird!" He said with his arms crossed and his little chubby cheeks were puffed out in a pout.

Ichigo's heated response was only met with a look of pure confusion from the cat.

"What the hell is wrong with it! Ya don't want ta' starve do you? Ichi, get rid of those things! I can't clean ya properly with those damn things on!"

Grimmjow snatched up Ichigo by the back of his shirt before he could manage to scramble away before licking the boy.

"Eww!"

"Stop being a brat and let me clean ya!"

The boy only struggled harder in the cat's grip in a vain attempt to get away.

-3 months later-

Sitting at the entrance of the den, which Grimmjow had quickly made his own, was his little cub Ichigo awaiting his 'mother's' return eagerly. The young child had quickly gained a couple pounds while in the care of the cat creature that had saved him not to long ago. His 'mother' had left earlier to go hunt for food and had yet to return. Ichigo tried his hardest to stay awake to welcome his mother home but, quickly fell into a blissful sleep.

Once he had awoken again he saw his 'mother' was now home. He groggily crawled towards his mother before eagerly gorging himself with the milk his mother offered to him. He quickly fell back asleep as soon as he was full and content, snuggling up to his 'mother'. Grimmjow's eyes softened as he watched his little 'cub' fall asleep before curling around the child and allowing a purr of contentment to escape his throat.
