Day 4
Real World
Ichigo
Previously during Chapter two..
Yuriko face palms as the burst of nothing but power radiated all around her. It was nothing compared to what Yuriko is going to offer him.
With eyes narrowed and eye brow arched, Yuriko casually speaks, "This is it? Is this all that you-"
"EL DIRECTO!"
With a dramatic face palm, Noriko and Isamu casually stood behind Yuriko who merely unfurled her arm and flicked her wrist- and within an instant, Chad's attack disappears before it even hits them. This stunned Chad. How can Yurko so easily deflect thier attacks with such ease?
Proudly standing, Yuriko clears her throat and faces Ichigo, ignoring Chad. "As I was saying, attack us again, and that's the last you'll see of your cute little sisters.."
Tensions grew high as he watched Yuzu and Karin shallowly breathing. He can't just go on and attack, not when Yuriko can easily kill both Karin and Yuzu.
This left Ichigo conflicted.
"ICHIGO!" Chad boomed as he broke into Ichigo's thoughts. "WHAT'S GOING-"
Yuriko take a quick glance at Noriko who nods as she looks at Chad, lifting her hand she points at him as multiple strans of thin web like thread shot out from her loosely fitted purple silken sleeve, quickly engulfing Chad as Chad struggled to breathed. Ichigo's eyes widen as he tightly clenches onto his shikai. At this point he's beyond pissed and Yuriko noticed that and noted Noriko to stop, which she more than obediently does.
Noriko slowly recoils her strans of thin web like thread, bringing an unconcious Chad towards her as he dangles in the air.
"As you can see Ichigo Kurosaki." Yuriko happily pips as she takes a good look at Chad before looking at Ichigo. "All odds are against you. You lay a finger on anyone of us, your friend here and your cute little sisters get to meet our blades..."
Angrily gritting his teeth, Ichigo watches his two sisters and best friend captured. Captured by an unknown foe that's going to offer him a deal. Though, what kind of deal is that?
"What's the deal?" Ichigo gritted between his teeth as a smile beams on Yuriko's face. She's very happy with the way things progressed since Soul society will meet thier demise.
Proudly standing up tall and straight, Yuriko began her explanation and what they expect from Ichigo by offering him power beyond his imagination. Only if Ichigo agrees to Yuriko's plan, will she let Karin and Yuzu go... If he doesn't?
Both Karin and Yuzu will meet thier demise.
"SO!" Yuriko happily peps, "It's a big transition, so when times comes, you know what to do. But! While we wait for you to decide," Yuriko snaps her finger as Isamu grunted and swung his crescent Tamashī Ha, forming a purple void. "We're going to take your little sisters with us... Just in case you-"
A flash of black passes Yuriko, yelling, "GETSUGA TENSHO!"
A sigh was released once Yuriko effortlessly flicks her wrist, and Ichigo's attack disappears once Noriko and Isamu walk through the purple void, carrying both Yuzu and Karin while Yuriko stood before Ichigo, only a few feet away, she boldly speaks to him.
"As you can see Ichigo Kurosaki. If you follow us into our domain, you signed your death wish. Lay a finger on me, you signed your cute little sister's death wish. The choice is all yours Ichigo Kurosaki..."
With that being said, Yuriko quickly turns around, and happily prances her way towards the purple void and enters it as it quickly dissolves away, leaving Ichigo beyond livid and helpless.
Shit. He's confused as hell.
All Ichigo knows is he can't tell Urahara because, if he did, Karin and Yuzu will be the reason why they died and that will weight on Ichigo's conscience like a house of bricks.
Tell anyone of our arrangement and the heads of your cute little sisters will be sent to you.
Soul Society Day 4
Iba
Ryoka alert! Ryoka alet!
Iba shunpos around the chaos induced seireitei, attempting to sense out the Ryoka-though, it seems like the Ryoka sense him out instead.
Masuyo, the disconjoined man whose joints seem to protrude a little oddly than you would think, stood before Iba with his long gray hair leading to his waist, covered his face as it slowly swayed side to side, never revealing his identity. Only Yuriko knows how he looks like and lived to confirm she has seen his looks but doesn't tell anyone how he looks based on confidentially she has with each and every Nodachi under her.
He was quiet the whole time he stood before Iba. not a single word came out of him-Iba wasn't sure himself if the Ryoka was even breathing, but one thing for sure, Iba didn't appreciate the sound lips being licked.
Standing his ground, Iba boldly confronts the Ryoka, "Ryoka!" Iba loudly boomed. "Who are you and-"
"The name isn't important,"Masuyo's voice manically cracked, "The only thing that matters now," The sound of lips being licked was loud and wanting, "I finally get feast on Shinigami flesh once I retrieve your head in exchange for my seat..."
Retrieve my head in exchange for his seat?! What the hell is he talking about!?
With eyes narrowed and zanpakuto in hand, Iba stares at the Ryoka, "What the hell do you mean by-"
Blades clash as the Ryoka's long gray hair started to give way, slowly revealing his facial features. Masuyo wickedly laughs. "Shinigami! Your head is mine!"
Soul Society Day 4
Hanataro
Ryoka Alert! Ryoka Alert!
Division 4 barracks are filled with nothing but chaos and havoc as everyone runs around preparing for-what seems like an impending war. Unohana is nowhere to be seen and our little Hanataro is confused with the chaos surrounding him as he aimlessly bumbled him away all around the seireitei, in hopes of running into a shinigami that's in need of aid...
Poor Hantaro and his obliviousness.
But luckily for Hanataro, he'll be facing the wrath of someone who has a soft spot for boys like him.
Dashing before Hanataro, the 12th Nodachi known as Kiyoko stood before him, grinning as she batted her shiny brown eyes. "Hey there Shinigami..."
Hanataro squeals in terror as he turns all different shades of red before he jumped back and dropped down on his knees, begging to be let free-this only made Kiyoko laugh.
"Silly little boy," She sweetly batts her thick long eye lashes, smiling, "I'm not like the other Nodachis who kill cute innocent things wrecklessly...When I harvest your head, I'll make sure you're dead so you don't feel that excruciating pain of-"
"Hanataro..."
Hantaro's eyes widen the moment he sees someone he admires and fears...
"Tai chou..."
Soul Society Day 4
Renji
Ryoka Alert! Ryoka Alert!
Heavily huffing, Renji wipes away beads of sweat beaming down his face as he looks around. He's been training hard for the past few years to hone his powers and skills.
Quickly putting on his Shihakushō, Renji shunpos towards his division barracks, figuring out what to do in times like this. Though, Renji couldn't help but realize something. He has been shunpoing for the past few minutes.. It takes him less than a minute to get back to his division barracks and that tree looks familiar.
What the hell is going on!?
Stopping right in his tracks, Renji looks around with his calloused hand firmly clenching on his Zanpakuto-was that the sound of tree leaves rustling?
"RYOKA!" Renji boomed, "Show your-"
A quick dodge to the left earned Renji a slight cut on his left arm as deep hearty chuckle accompanied it.
"Not bad for a Shinigami..."
Renji's eyes darted all around him as the atmosphere around him grew tense. Nothing but green rustling trees surrounded him. This confused Renji. He's losing track of where he is. Everything seems to repeat it'self like an never ending maze.
"Ya confused yet?" The deep hearty voice taunted. "Cause the only way out is when someone dies..."
Soul Society Day 4
Rukia
Ryoka Alert! Ryoka Alert!
Violet eyes beamed wide open as she shunpos around the choas induced Seireitei. She felt the overbearing and unfamiliar spirit pressure. She just doesn't know she was being followed until...
"Your head is mine Shinigami..."
The malicious voice whispers to her from behind. Shivers were sent through Rukia's body as she shunpoed ahead, turning around to face the malicious whisper only to be greeted by nothing. This here, confuses Rukia because she was so sure she heard a voice calling out-
"You shinigami are so slow.."
There it is! That voice that eludes Rukia as she looks around cautiously.
"Show yourself RYOKA!" Rukia yelled as the voice laughs at her. "Shinigami, Shinigami..." The silky smooth voice taunted, "I'm going t rip your head off..."
Hueco Mundo Day 4
Karin and Yuzu
In the quiet halls of Hueco Mundo, the 1st Nodachi known as Masaru, guards the room where Ai, Kasumi, Amai Hana, and Amai Dokuy resided.
A heavy sigh was released once Amai Hana stood next to Amai Doku. They were both best friends-which makes sense since Ai and Kasumi are best friends.
"Hey Amai Hana..." Amai Doku finally broke teh silence as she quietly nudges, "Do you think Ai chan will remember what happened in the past?"
Amai Hana takes a quick glance at as Kasumi-herself attempts tp heal Ai. The tiny beads of sweat trickling down her Kasumi creamy white skin was a ckear sign Ai won't be awake anytime soon.. This worried Amai Hana. Sure, Amai Hana is practically an older sister to Ai- but Amai Hana is also Ai's zanpakuto. That's the difference between Ai's and Kasumi's Zanpakuto to other random Shinigami. Thier connection with thier Zanpakuto runs so deep, it's nearly impossible for any shinigami to reach the caliber they have.
That is why Yuriko needs Ai and Kasumi. Only they are capable of the sure destruction of soul Society
"I really hope so.." Amai Hana sighs as she rubs her face. "I'd hate to be the one telling her about what her Jiji san-"
"Helllloooo~~" Yuriko's voice happily pipped while Kasumi kept her focus on Ai.
The door slowly creaks open to the sight of Noriko holding onto an unconscious Yuzu, and Isamu holding onto an unconscious Karin while Yuriko herself stood infront of them with her head held high.
Both Amai Hana and Amai Doku quickly advances Noriko and Isamu as they took Yuzu and Karin away and gently held them in thier arms. Amai Hana looks at Amai Doku and whispers to her, "Don't they remind you when Ai sama and Kasumi sama when they were little?"
A quiet chuckle was released once Amai Doku reminses about the times where Ai and Kasumi were little kids without a care.
"Yes, yes they do... I wonder if-"
"I'm sorry," Yuriko oddly interrupts, "but can she go faster 'cause we're pressed for ti-"
The cold touch of Amai Doku's blade hovered against Yuriko's neck as Noriko sprung into action and quickly directed her thin web like thread from her sleeve around Amai Doku's neck. That's when Amai Hana unfurled her left as she continues to hold onto Yuzu with her right arm.
As Amai unfurled her left arm, a small fire lily appears and Amai Doku's eyes widen, she has seen that attack before and knows the damange it can create. Though, the thing is, is Amai Hana really going to use that move?
The tension was running high between Amai Hana, Amai Doku, Yuriko and Noriko. No one made a move-that was until Isamu broke the silence.
"Ladies, ladies..." Isamu's vivid neon green eyes gleamed as he seductively coaxed everyone. "Less hate more love! Now, who wants to start off with a wet T-sh-"
Heavy foot steps enter the room and there is an awkward silence. Masaru, lets out a heavy sigh as he rubs his face with his calloused hand. "Yuriko sama, they have returned back."
Happily squealing, Yuriko quickly apologizes for any miscommunications and blames everything on herself for being so young and naive and signals Noriko to withdraw her thread which she reluctantly does as Amai Doku withdraws her blade. Amai Hana?
The fire lily still exists in the palm of Amai Hana's hand as she watches Yuriko. Amai Hana doesn't fully trust Yuriko and Yuriko plans to change all that. But that's later on because she has some other business she needs to tend to.
As Yuriko happily heads out the door with her favorite Nodachis trailing her, Amai Hana whispers to Amai Doku, "I think I made the wrong choice to trust her..."
Day 4
Real World
Ichigo, Urahara
The quiet lingered above Urahara's place once Yuriko left. It been like this for the past few minutes between Ichigo and Urahara. Ichigo takes a sip of tea and stares straight ahead, Urahara following suit and does the same- Though.
Urahara lost his paitence and spoke up.
"Kurosaki san..."Urahara now studies Ichigo's reaction. Urahara knows Ichigo Ichigo has information on what Urahara knows as Nodachis.
How?
Wll, let's just say, the sould of dead speak in Hueco Mundo. Warning Uraharaanout a impending war between the Nodachis and shinigamis. Though, Urahara doesn't exactly know where the Nodachis are located nor does he know what they want. But. That's when Ichigo comes in. Urahara knows Ichigo Ichigo knows something about the Nodachis. After all, Ichigo did go against some of them and Ichigo came out unscathed...
"That's all I know." Ichigo's eyes trailed away. He really wasn't sure if he should tell Urahara about the deal he made with Yuriko- That is if Yuriko keeps her end of the deal.
Urahara's eyes darken. Ichigo's fidgeting uneasiness and lack of concern for his-now hostaged sisters?
Shit was going down and and Ichigo can't say a thing, because, if he did, Karen's and Yuzu's death with weight on him like a toon of bricks and Urahara knows this.
"What about your little sisters?" Urahara boldly questioned. "Are you going to go and saved-"
"I can't." Ichigo angrily gritted his teeth. Ichigo rememnbered the deal he made with Yuriko. It was crystal clear to him what would happen if Ichigo enters Hueco Mundo. Karin and Yuzu's head will be delievered to him and that's the shit he doesn't want.
"I told you what would happen if I went there..." Ichigo quietly mumbles as Urahara slowly folds his fan.
"Did your father tell you about the release of two captive girls in Soul Society?"
An eye brow arches once Urahara mentions Soul Society when clearly, the focus should be focused in on getting Karin and Yuzu back. What possible connection can be made between Soul Society and-
"Your father, Isshin is in Soul Society... And..." Urahara's eyes darkens. "He's there fighting."
"What?!" Ichigo slams his fists against the table, seething with nothing but sheer anger. "What didn't you tell me about-"
"Has Isshin told you about his niece?"
Stunned, Ichigo stares at Urahara stupidly. Ichigo has no memory of having a cousin. So What the hell does Urahara mean by Isshin having a niece- Urahara thoroughly noted Ichigo's ignorance.
"I'm not sure if I should tell you because it's not my story to-"
"I get it." Ichigo lets out a deep huff as he gets up, surprising Urahara. "I need to get to Soul Society now to help out."
"What about your little sis-"
"They wouldn't dare lay a finger on Karin or Yuzu..." Ichigo angrily gritted at the mere thought of Yuriko smiling at him- he wanted nothing more than to wipe that smile off her face.
"I will tear up Hueco Mundo."
Hueco Mundo Day 4
Ai, Kasumi, Amai Hana, Amai Doku, Karin, Yuzu
Within the reistu suppressed room contains two new little unconscious twin girls-human girls to be exact. Two human girls that are comfortably situated on a makeshift bed created by non other than Amai Hana and Amai Doku.
The pair, Amai Hana and Amai Doku, watched over the twins, practically swooning over them.
"Aww... Look a the light haired one!" Amai Hana gently pokes Yuzu's cheeks, "She looks a lot like Ai sama when she was younger... Expect for the obivious hair color difference-ow!"
Pouting, Amai Hana quickly recoils her hand, rubbing it as Amai Hana's orange eyes gleamed at Amai Doku. "What was that for?"
"You're going to wake her up and scare her, that's what." Amai Hana huffed before Amai Doku took a quick glance at Kasumi who diligently heals her best friend Ai. "How much longer do you think it wll take for Ai chan to fully wake-"
"Amai Doku! Amai Doku!" Amai Hana urgently nudges her arm, "She's awake! She's awake! She's mwaph!"
A pair of scared brown eyes looked around the sheer white room as she caustiously around as she huddled up next to her twin, nudging her awake- Amai Hana swooned over the cuteness of Yuzu's scared vulnerable aura surrounding her.
"It's okay," Amai Hana sweetly coos, "We aren't going to hurt you... You remind me too much of Ai sama when she was y-"
"WAIT!" Amai Doku beamed, her eyes widen as she hit an epiphany.
Everything seemed to make sense. Why Ai and Kasumi were both "saved,"why Yuzu looks oddly like Ai, and why both Yuzu and Karin were kidnapped.
It all made sense.
Well, on the identity of Yuzu and Karin that is.
Though, one thing for sure, Amai Hana and Amai Doku wanted to make sure thier "epiphany" was right or not, so what better way than to question the cute little girl Amai Hana was swooning over?
Nudging Amai Hana, Amai doku whispers to her, "Go on and ask her."
Amai Hana's red eyes happily beamed because she was dying to speak to the scared cute little girl that resembles Ai so much. So, Amai Hana slowly walks towards Yuzu and bends down to her level- Yuzu scoots away from Amai Hana. "Please don't hurt us..."
Eyes glittered as Amai Hana swooned over Yuzu's vulnerability and sweetly cooed, "I'm not going to hurt you... I just want to ask you a few questions..."
Meekly, Yuzu looked up at a swooning Amai Hana. "Questions?"
"Yes." Amai Hana softly replied. "Just a few questions and we'll let you settle in..."
Causiously, Yuzu looked around and sees Amai Doku hovering around-what seems like a girl not much older than herself, healing her friend. But still. Yuzu was still on guard when she spoke to Amai Hana.
"Okay." Yuzu quietly replies. "You can ask me some questions."
Squealing from happiness, Amai Hana scoots closer to Yuzu, hoping to gain some trust from the cute little girl that resembles so much like Ai.
"Do you known a man named..."
Day 4
Soul Society
Omaeda
"Che," An arrogant grin appears on Omeada's face once he stares Eibikiyo down. "I'm Omeada, fuku taichoi of division 2-"
Laughter spills from Ebikiyo's lips as she kept her fan hid her smile, "Oh goody, I finally get to have some fun..." Slowly, Eibikiyo's slender fraile arm lifts itself as as opens her palm. "Don't disappoint me now..." A small bloody gapping hole forms in Eibikiyo's hand as squirmish childish squeals bursts from the palm of Eibikiyo's hand...
Screams now formed as the form of a small slimey, boney litter crittier that helplessly squealed and squirmed at the cold touch of the cement ground. Eibikiyo looked at the helpless boney critter and cooed at him, "I know, I know... I'm sorry it's not the nice white sandy ground you've grown accustom to...But... I promise you we're going to have fun today!" Squeals of delight brusts from the small little boney critter who shook off the bloody slime covering it, revealing the sharp blade like back bones petruding out it's spine, It's pitch black eyes gleamed nothing but pure evil.
Ebikiyo fans herself proudly as she directs her attention at Omeada. "It seems like Shō is more than ready to play...Don't disappoint us now..." Ebikiyo's eyes darkens, "Fuku taichou..."
Omeada's eyes widen in disbelief with what he saw. There was no way Eibikiyo's frail slender hand could produce that monster... But then again, The Nodachis are a mysterious bunch that likes to keep to themselves...
Omeada scoffed. Even if that-that thing looks meancing, it's like a little puppy trying to be scary and Omeada isn't buying in. Infact, Omeada mocks Ebikiyo's "Pet"
"Che, You get your own pet to fight for you because you're too weak to fight me head on-"
Low rumbling growls was felt-It was Shō who growled at Omeada for insulting Ebikiyo like that. No one insults her and live to tell about it-Shō will make sure of that. But, Ebikiyo wants to play.
"Uh-oh..." Ebikiyo tilts her head with her signiture fan covering her mouth, "You've upset Shō..."
Rolling his eyes, Omade arrogantly drew his blade. "Ryoka." Omeada condensendly addressed. "I'm in no mood to put up with your shit right-"
A loud angry roar bursts from a furious Shō who lunges forwards towards Omaeda who was quick enough to release his shikai.
"Buttsubuse"
An oversized spiked ball stops Shō from chopping down on Omeada- this just angered Shō even more. To use a petty move like this? To undermined Shō's power? For Omeada to blantly laugh at Shō for being weak?
This pissed off Shō to no end and Ebikiyo knew. She knew Shō was burning with nothing but pure hate-Ebikiyo gave Shō to finish Omeada off.
Shō is going to show Omeada on what Omeada-himself -got into.
For example, Omeada blocked Shō's attack by shoving his oversized spiked balled in Shō's mouth, Shō chomps down Omeada's shikai and chews on it before he spits it out to the side as she stares at Omeada who shits his pants and runs.
Ebikiyo bursts out in giggles once Shō' whimpers at her-telling Ebikiyo to give him the go to kill and harvest Omeada's head, stealing all the fun Ebikiyo was looking forward to.
But.
Seeing that Omeada insulted Shō' in the worst way possible, Ebikiyo gives Shō' the go as he squealed in happiness and lunges towards Omeada within a blink of an eye. Ebikyo closes her pale yellow eyes and waits for that sweet sound of-
A hidden smile graces Ebikiyo's face as she keeps her smile hidden-well, why wouldn't she be smiling? She heard the loud crunching-Shō could be such a loud eater when he's angry.
Ebikiyo quietly waited for Shō's return which didn't take long when a pale bloodly head was she coming towards her.
Shyly, Shō' slowly walks up to Ebikiyo and nudges her with his bloodied head, urging her to look at the bloodied head she needed. But, what Ebikiyo was waiting for wasn't just a head of a Shinigami.
No.
It wasn't.
It's been a tradition for Ebikiyo to take a piece of bone from those whom she killed or who Shō killed and wear the bone piece as a hair accessory. It seems like-
Lougly coughing, Shō chokes out a piece of bone and smiles sheepishly as he sticks hi tongue out.
Narrowing her eyes, Ebikiyo smiles at Shō and takes the slimey bone resting in Shō's warm tongue. "Now." Ebikiyo lets out a huff, "It's time for you to go-"
Sad whimpers escapes Shō who nudges her and gives her the pupppy eyes-Ebikiyo doesn't buy in and opens her hand. "Come on now,,, You had your fun like I promised."
Letting out a pout, Shō reluctantly slinks back into Ebikiyo's hand as it heals itself once Shō fullly enters back in.
Letting out a big sigh. Ebikyio looks at the bloodied Shinigami head and snatches it by it's hair and shrugs, "I wonder what's taking everyone else so lo
