Ulquiorra stepped out of his gargantua, allowing the portal to close behind him. The hour was up. The Espada closed his eyes, easily locating faint traces of Kita's reiastu a little ways to the northwest.
A quick sonido placed him directly under Ichigo Kurosaki's window. With a nimble jump, Ulquiorra landed crouched in Ichigo's window, calmly observing the shinigami as the teen pounded his mattress, "Where is the woman Kita?"
Ichigo sat up and glared at Ulquiorra. "Somewhere you or Aizen can't touch her anymore. Get the hell outta here."
The cuarta entered the room fully, placing his feet on the hardwood floor, "She is dead then?"
"Do you have a hearing problem? I told you to get lost!" Ichigo snarled, quick to anger after what had happened.
"I see that I am right," Ulquiorra mused, pulling a hand from his pocket and snapping his fingers, "I suppose I should thank you, for doing the job for me."
Ichigo jumped forward and snatched Ulquiorra by the scruff of his collar. Looking him in the eyes with a fierce burning hate, his lip curled in a snarl. "You listen and you listen good...you WILL pay for what you did to Kita." Letting go by pushing him away slightly, he stepped back and pointed at him. "Tell your master he's going down. I'll make sure of that...."
"I did nothing to the woman that she didn’t want, she wanted to stay with me and I arranged it. I did not hold her against her will," Ulquiorra said, straightening his jacket, "And dream all you want, Ichigo Kurosaki, but if you cannot manage to beat me, you stand no chance against Lord Aizen." The pale man stepped into gargantua and allowed it to close, but not before tossing one last comment to Ichigo, "Thank you."
Ichigo had been ready to rant back at him again...but froze upon hearing his final words. Clenching his fists, he turned his back to him. "...Thank you too...." He returned, not willing to expound any further on it.
