Chapter 1: Gluttony

Orihime was sitting in the couch, lost in her own thoughts. From time to time she looked to the sky, but she didn't know what for; there, it was always night. She was tired of looking to the false stars; she was tired of everything. She couldn't stand it more and she didn't know what to do. Even if she wanted to, she knew she never would destroy the Hogyouku and, if she tried to do it, Aizen would discover her immediately. Who knows if he had already noticed it? If she carried out her pathetic plan, he'll surely attack her friends. And that was something she'll never allow. Especially for him.

The sound of the door woke her up from her fantasies. She saw immediately one of the guards carrying the luxurious tray, full of food she hated. But this time was different; she'd no longer obey anyone. She refused to follow their orders.

"There is your food" said the guard.

The girl looked at him without saying anything, even without agreeing. Her look was cold and inexpressive; maybe she was starting to seem like her captor more than she imagined. The only difference between them was that, while he was prepared to follow orders until his death, she preferred to die than to obey.

Because of that, when the guard had gone, the girl opened the dishes and looked carefully the food. In fact it wasn't so bad, but she was disgusted by thinking that there was something she actually liked, in that place. So she took the dishes in both hands and, one by one, threw the food down the window. She didn't even taste it, hoping the sand of the desert will cover the aliments. Ulquiorra would register her room in vain, in case of suspicion. Her plan was perfect; in a short period of time, she'll die of inanition without raising any suspicions.

At night she repeated the same operation, but, that time, she tasted the food. She didn't stuff herself with it, only bit it. Orihime decided to leave some dishes full of aliments, to hide her intentions, and, by chance, Ulquiorra didn't notice anything.

"I'm glad I don't have to threaten you to eat" said the Fourth Espada, without receiving any answer from the girl.

She was going mad. Even if Ulquiorra's presence was kind of her way out, she had decided to stop talking to him. She didn't want to see him anymore. She didn't want anything.

Some days later, Orihime felt she had lost weight and, even if it sounded weird, she was glad of it. Maybe that was the first time, since she was there, that something had turned out the way she wanted. Soon she'll achieve her purpose.

Since then, the young girl desired more frequently lunch time to arrive. In a short period of time, she had developed some infallibles norms of behavior which, following an order, managed to trick everyone in Las Noches. However, the redhead girl didn't keep in mind the big mistakes it could have had.

Espadas didn't come out of Las Noches frequently, especially since Aizen had started to design his big offensive. However, sometimes they liked to take a walk at the outskirts, even if they did it only to change the routine.

"I think you are going to be removed of your duties, Ulquiorra" said Szayel, founding the Fourth Espada in the corridor.

"What are you talking about?"

"I was just walking in the desert when I found something really interesting" answer him, throwing Ulquiorra a small pot with sand inside it. It seemed it contained something more.

"What is supposed to be this?"

"Food remains. Founded in the sand, that is just below your prisoner's window. Strange, don't you think? How is it possible for a simple human woman to avoid the guards and the Fourth Espada? Who knows; maybe she's more interesting than I thought…"

When he turned his head, The Eight Espada discovered he was alone. Ulquiorra didn't wait the sentence to be finished, because he immediately moved outside the fortress. There, his eyes stood wide open when he realized Aporro's provocation was true. Even if they weren't very clear, food remains were covered by the sand of the desert.

The Fourth Espada couldn't express with words what he felt. It was the first time someone mocked him that way. Not only that, but also he had being eluding Aizen's orders without knowing it. Luckily, he hadn't realized it yet. But there wasn't any problem; soon, the girl would understand what meant to contradict his creator.

That night, as always, Orihime waited the guard to come in. However, when the servant came out, Ulquiorra got in and closed the door behind him. The redheaded girl didn't expect that, why was he there?

"Eat" he ordered, fixing his eyes on hers and crossing his arms.

The girl paralyzed. He couldn't be suspecting anything; that was impossible! She was completely sure about her plan; he couldn't have discovered her… Or maybe yes?

"I'd prefer doing it alone" suggested her.

"Eat" repeated him.

That time, Ulquiorra turned his gaze to the girl's body, understanding how right Szayel was. Orihime had lost much weight and, even if she tried to hide it, the dress' chest was too baggy. Ulquiorra wasn't going to tolerate that; no one had ever made fun of himself that way, because, if someone would have tried it, he'll surely end up dying. However, the Espada couldn't finish the girl's life, so he'll make sure to make herself understand that lesson for her whole life.

"I don't want right now" answered her, lowing her gaze "Maybe later…"

"Eat now" repeated him, for the third time.

"No" refused Orihime, facing him.

"OK."

As soon as the Espada disappeared, he reappeared with some straps in his hands. Orihime started to frighten for real, so she got up of the chair. She imagined what Ulquiorra was planning to do with those instruments and wasn't going to accept it. When the girl got up, Ulquiorra moved behind her, put her hands on her back and pushed her towards the window. There, he forced herself to look through it.

"Ulquiorra…"

"Do you think I'm an idiot? Do you think I don't know what's down there? OK."

Immediately, the Espada took her to the chair, where he sit and tied her with the straps. When he finished, Ulquiorra grabbed her chin and approached her dangerously; then, he took a spoonful of the first course.

"Until you don't learn how to behave, I'll make sure you don't disobey an order again. Open your mouth."

Seeing the girl wasn't going to obey, the Espada blocked her nose, forcing her to open her mouth. The girl started then to move and scream, but Ulquiorra didn't mind covering her nose as long as he could fulfill his duty. Aizen wouldn't get upset for a stupid like her.

"Let's start with the second course."

Orihime stood reluctant to obey him, so she spat the food. However, Ulquiorra was reaching the limit of his patience; he finally changed his method and started suffocating her with his own hands. The redheaded girl turned quickly red and started to cough, while she desperately tried to get rid of his hands.

"If you really don't want to die, why don't you eat? It makes no sense."

Orihime was starting to have serious problems, but Ulquiorra didn't seem to change his expression even a bit. When tears started to run down her face, she gave such a kick that she knocked off the stray.

"That's not good. Now, I'll have to ask for another. If you don't want to die this way" concluded Ulquiorra, touching his nose with hers "it means you'll eat when you are told to and what you are told to."

The, Ulquiorra freed her of the breathlessness. Orihime, when she finally started to breathe again, fell on the floor and started to cough and try to recover herself. She was a mess; there was food all over her face and clothes. Obviously, the floor wasn't much better after the kick she had given.

"Guards will bring another tray right now and, from now on, I'll supervise all of your meals. You don't have election" ended him, before leaving.

Understanding finally her situation, Orihime couldn't hold back her tears y started to cry. The only sign of firm determination she had had was over. She didn't know what to do; she'll be more useful being dead, but she had to stay alive. In any of the cases, she'll cause big problems.

She couldn't have imagined it, but Ulquiorra was still outside, listening her screams and crying. An incredible feeling of triumph overwhelmed him, mixed with Orihime's pants.

Chapter 1. End

That's it! What do you think? Well, first of all I'm a Spanish writer, so my English is not very well (I always need a dictionary for almost every words!). I'm also a translator of English and French fics to Spanish, but this is the first time I translate one of my own fics to English, so I don't know who is it! I'll appreciate if you tell me if there are any mistakes (that's the only way to know a language, I think!) and I'll like to know your opinion of the story, too. The original (in Spanish) is already finished, so you can check it at my profile, if you want. See you in chapter 2!
