Upon the High Seas

"yup she's in trouble..." Asa said once she was by herself in the brig again, Andi struggled in Grimmjow's grip as he pulled her up the stairs

He took her straight to the captain's quarters. Grimmjow didn't bother knocking. He threw her forward and Andi fell to the floor. She quickly scrambled to her feet.

she had tried to run out the door but was pushed back, "whats the meaning of this Grimmjow" Ulquiorra asked calmly with his same stoic expression "our stowaway" he said pointing at her

Ulquiorra looked at Andi. Andi was feeling more afraid of him then Grimmjow.

she gulped a bit not sure what he was going to say, she had only heard about the pirates that sailed in Aizen's fleet

"You may have her if you wish." Ulquiorra finally said. Andi got a wave of fear through her body. "Ttch. I'll pass. She's to scrawny." Andi veined but let it go. "We could sell her."

"do whatever, just make sure she isnt roaming free on the ship" Ulquiorra said "you could throw me over board" Andi finally just suggested

All three of them looked at her. "These are shark infested waters." Grimmjow said.

"i'll take my chances with the sharks" she said

"Put her in the brig." Ulquiorra ordered.

Grimmjow just gave a nod and grabbed Andi's arm and pulled her out of the cabin

Andi struggled the entire time. Grimmjow threw her in a different cell from Asa.

he knew Asa's ability to bust out of the brig spontaneously, Andi fell on the floor again and shot a look over at Grimmjow who just closed and locked the cell door

"I'm going to ask you a favor." Grimmjow said to Asa. "Don't help her." He jabbed his thumb at Andi.

Asa just gave a shrug which usually meant a 'maybe'

"Will you help me?" Andi asked Asa when Grimmjow was gone. Asa shrugged again.

"come on i'm asking!" she said "he asked to" asa said "then how do you deal with that?" Andi asked "i make up my own mind" was the reply

Andi kicked the bars and sat down on the bench.

she rested her head in her hands, trying to think

Rukia was sitting in the same chair from before. She was nodding off, but tried to stay awake.

she didnt want to fall asleep again, she felt that Andi's attempts had almost suceeded but she, like Asa, had a feeling it would have eventually failed, they both seemed to attract the worst luck

She didn't notice Ulquiorra approch her. She flinched feeling him pull her off the chair.

"dont fall asleep in the chair lay down if your tired" he said she veined at him slightly

Rukia's eyes were heavy and she knew she couldn't stay up for long.

He took her over and had her lie down
