Bleach: Rise of the Descendant
Chapter 1: A Blazing Introduction
A woman sat outside under a cliff, wearing an open black kimono with dark red bandage wrappings around her torso that hooked up around her neck. She had a large flame tattoo that covered her entire backside and went up over her shoulder blades, stretching out over her shoulders a bit; The kimono's sleeves were cut off and she had a pair male's black pants on. Wearing the same colored bandage wrappings around her four arms that ended at her palms, allowing her fingers to poke out as if she wore fingerless gloves. Being shoeless never bothered her, since she saw that as a mere weakness; Her dead pale skin appeared ghastly, since it was cloudy with down pouring rain. Her eyes being masked by black sunglasses, while her pitch black hair was puled back into a real long and spiky ponytail, that stretched down close to her feet. As for her bangs, they nearly touched the lids of her eyes. A long scar had been over her right eye and ended down her right cheek.
She had black lip stick on and black eyeliner under her sunglasses as well, all though the eyeliner couldn't be seen. She appeared to be in her early twenties; She had stolen two butcher knives, which lay aside from her in the soaked grass. "It had been years... No, about a century since I had ever put my trust in someone... My friend...had raised me for nearly one hundred or more years until that fateful day, where I got beaten brutally by men under hard pouring rain... Just like this." The sound from the rain became more noticeable, as if it fell heavier than before. She was in a spacious forest that appeared more like a field, with only a few trees.
A flashback occurred and shown a view which hovered above the Rukongai, with the same pouring drops and cloudy sky. A little girl sat in an ally way crying, she was so thin as if she hadn't eaten in weeks. Many people had passed her, ignored her cries except for one boy who appeared just a bit older than her. "Are you alright little one?"
The boy had asked the small child, though she was frightened by his sudden approach. She had long black and straight hair that went passed her back, bangs that covered her eyes just enough...so her horrifying orbs couldn't be seen. "He was the first to ever approach me... and care for me, where no one else would..." The woman's voice occurred, during her trip down memory lane. The boy smiled sweetly to the little girl, holding his hand out to show he wasn't dangerous, in which the frightened child hesitantly took.
The scene changed and shown the little girl who had grown up, her appearance not being that much different since her childhood. The girl was running away and darting her eyes all over the area, searching for her friend. It was raining and many guys were chasing after her with anger written on their faces, screaming out her name and calling her many unpleasant things. "You bitch, get back here!" One guy said from the small gang. "Yeah, we'll show you not to look at us that way, you monster!" Another had spoken with rage. Finally pinning her eyes on a young man, who appeared waving to her with concerned eyes. She dashed forward even faster, so she could reach him.
"Morgus!" The girl yelled with fear as she ran to him, with haste while bare footed. The boy appeared much older than her as well in height but, not much different in his looks either. The girl caught up to him and panted from exhaustion, as she bent down with her hands on her knees. She peered up to meet Morgus's gaze, even though her eyes were still masked by her bangs a bit.
"Let's go, Kaiorin!" Morgus said, after gripping on to her wrist and pulling her along as he ran. Though Kaiorin tripped on a large rock, which caused Morgus to gasp and squat down to her so he could pick her up. Unfortunately it was futile since one of the guys in the raging gang had punted him hard in the face, making Morgus stumble a ways from Kaiorin. "Stay outta this, ya runt!" One of the men shouted from the group then began kicking and thrashing the girl, that laid there in the watered street. Cries emitted from her, tears fell, cuts formed and Morgus's name was called over and over. She was getting beaten real bad; Her bangs were swept away from her eyes, since she was laying down in a puddle. Her orbs barely opened and appeared to be slitted; They were crimson but not your average red, it was as if a pool of deep red lava had swirled within her gaze and burned far hotter than flames. Lying there getting beaten by the men, she couldn't help but be shocked at what she was witnessing...Fear...Fear engulfed Morgus, as he stood there staring into her blazing eyes. He was more afraid of her peers than seeing her getting thrashed by the brutes in the gang, which made him turn his tail and run the other direction.
Leaving Kaiorin in the heavy rain with the brute gang, who had threatened her for so many years until they had decided today, to pummel her. She was speechless, she was betrayed...stabbed in the heart by the one person she had relied on for about a hundred years... Tears fell even more but, not from the pain that she felt from her beatings...but from the pain Morgus had given her just then...
"Ever since that day...I vowed myself to never...trust anyone again. I've decided to stand on my on two feet from then on and not to let anyone push me down... Fight my own problems, keep people out of my life, out of my business and most importantly...Never let anyone get close to me...I'll just get hurt again..." Kaiorin's disembodied voice spoke as the scene of her laying there had faded, with blood all over her vessel and had mixed in with the puddle of water under her. Her eyes were barely open and was filled with tears of sorrow.
The scene returned to the woman under the cliff, Kaiorin snapped herself out of her memories so she'd move on soon. She leaned to the side a bit to grab both her knives, then quickly stashed them away within her pants lining around her waist. Her mouth was stoic and her movement while standing up, was sluggish. "C''mon ya damn rain...Hurry up and leave, I don't wanna sit here all day you know..." She spoke to no one in particular, then crossed her arms against her chest. Her voice was deep and strong but sadly, the same cannot be said for her patience. She sighed then walked out under the rain but, as soon as she did...a man charged at her with a large club, that was aimed for her head.
"There you are, you demon!" The man said before swinging his stick. Kaiorin growled under her breath from irritation, then grabbed a hold of the club with one hand. With an opening in plain view, she struck the guy with her free hand in the gut to make him fall to his knees.
"You're too weak...You're nothing but a shop keeper, you're not a damn fighter so stay the hell away from me!" Kaiorin raged before socking the guy in the face, which gave the poor guy a nose bleed. The guy ran away in fear of his life, leaving Kaiorin annoyed while the thought of him 'being a MAN', made her want to puke.
"Tch- Wished they'd lay off...I'm no demon..." Kaiorin muttered to herself, then continued walking in the direction she had walked, before the guy ran at her.
About thirty minutes had passed and she was looking at all the market stands where everyone sold their merchandise. Some sold food, some had jewelry, some with weapons and many advertised in front of the stands. Kaiorin paced herself through the middle in search for a good food stand and a possible weaponry seller, with good taste. Her butcher knives weren't made for killing, which is why she needed some new tools for combat.
She looked over at a stand nearby and waltzed over to take a peek. It was a food lay out with meats, vegetables and some fruits. She had enough money saved up for the food and a pair of decent daggers, she could buy afterwords. She took out her coin pouch and bought some fish but before paying for it, the seller flinched at her exchange and carried out the order with a nervous smile. She made her way toward the middle again and began examining the traders once more, as she peered around for a while she had finally spotted a weapons dealer.
Kaiorin walked toward the dealer then picked up a pair of metal daggers, that were laying about on the seller's desk. "Oh! Those are a fine pair of daggers miss! They'd be perfect for self defense.~" The broker spoke, with the same smile as the last guy who was nervous. Kaiorin looked closer at the blade and noticed that the guy wasn't fibbing. "Huh- they really are fine pieces... Luckily the price is within my budget" She said to herself in her mind. Her lips grew into a small grin and paid for it swiftly, making the broker bow his head slightly before instantly composing himself.
She trailed away from all the stands and was in an ally way, testing out her daggers. "They're nice, the blades are real sharp and taken care of. It's rare to come across fine ass dealers..." She muttered within her head, stuffing the daggers in her pants lining as she paced out of the dark ally way, only to bump into someone with...a bald head?
"Hey, watch it you ass hole!" The baldy warned with frustration, before turning his head. Just as he were about to turn his head and face the person who had bumped into him, his jaw had been connected harshly with a strong fist. The punch made him fly across the street a bit and made him skid slightly, anyone would think twice before punting him like that. "WHAT THE HELL?!" The guy drew his sword, before spinning around to face the culprit. To his surprise, it was a six foot and two inch woman with a long, spiky and black ponytail. He grinned at the site of a lady standing before him, instead of another man. "You wanna fight?!" The guy asked with a wicked smirk, only to be returned with a grin from the lady who had hit him.
Kaiorin smiled just as wickedly as him and noticed he was wearing a shihakusho, as well as two others that were aside from him except, one wore a captain's coat. "Hell yeah I wanna fight! I'd give anything to have a good rough housing!" She replied eagerly yet strongly, with her deep voice as she pulled out her newly bought daggers and clung the ends of their hilts together, vertically in front. "Let's go...~" She grinned even bigger as she stood there, waiting for the bald one to make his move first. The other two males who stood on the side lines watched in amusement, all though the one wearing the captain's coat didn't seem all that interested.
The bald guy charged at Kaiorin with full speed, his sheath in one hand and his Zanpakuto in the other. Kaiorin and the guy both clashed their weapons together while still having their smirks plastered on their faces.
Kaiorin rose one dagger up to block his sword and swung her other dagger out to slice his chest, which had failed due to him jumping back a bit. Kaiorin pulled one hand back and readied her fist as she held the dagger simultaneously, the guy bolted at her with his blade ready to strike while Kaiorin had her knuckles prepared to sock him good. The guy had barely missed her head though, unfortunately for him, he got punched in the face considering how close they were. Her muscle was flexed, as well slightly defined with detail; The guy crashed into a nearby building with debris stumbling down and causing dirt to fly through the air.
From Kaiorin's action, she had stood stiff in the position she was in, when she punted the man. Her spiked black ponytail flailed in the air from the gust that had occurred, when she attacked. She had her arm out straight with muscles flexed, while having that wicked smirk on her face; Though her sunglasses had fallen off... Her slitted pupils was smaller from excitement, the swirling, deep red lava was in view to the other two's sight. The soul reaper who stood beside his superior, was a bit dumbfounded at what he just saw. The taller man was still unamused, as he stood there against a wall with his arms crossed.
"Tell me...Who are you? If you're this strong, then you she be in the spirit academy.~" The raven haired male spoke with elegance in his voice, whilst moving a hair strand from his face with his orbs closed.
Kaiorin straightened up and changed expression; Her smirk faded, her eyes narrowed and her posture loosened. "The...spirit...what...?" She asked, before being approached by the bald guy, who appeared to be popping his neck left and right with his sword sheathed.
"Oh, c'mon now... Don't tell me you've never heard of it..." The bald one spoke after taking his place beside the tallest male. "You know... The place where people train you to become stronger and help you develop as a soul reaper." He explained, leaning against the wall, his superior was on.
"Captain...look at her eyes, I've never seen someone with eyes like that before." The shortest one stated after raising a hand to cover one side of his mouth, so he could whisper with his head leaned toward him.
"I don't care to get myself involved with others... Unless it's a free fight then I'm in...other than that, they can kiss my ass..." Kaiorin muttered her reply, before crossing her arms with her eyes shut.
"You seem the type that loves to get stronger on your own but, wouldn't you prefer to let someone teach you new ways of how to fight? You'd learn a lot mor-" Yumichika replied before getting cut off by Kaiorin, who shot her anger out in reflection of her past.
"I WILL NOT RELY ON ANYONE! I ABSOLUTLEY REFUSE TO LET OTHERS HOLD- MY- HAND!" Her crimson eyes gleamed from wrath, that tried so hard to stay in. Her teeth gritted into view as her peers narrowed, while her body bent slightly toward their direction.
Both the bald guy and the shorter one stood wide eyed at her out burst, though the tallest one didn't seem the least fazed by her action. The tallest one with spiky hair pulled himself away from the wall and uncrossed his arms, while his gaze stayed the same as before.
Kaiorin's facial features had changed to more of a stern look, while composing herself back to normal; She wasn't afraid of anyone, not even one as tall as that guy. The only time she'd ever be afraid of anything or anyone, would be when she's utterly helpless in defending herself. The tall one had unsheathed his sword then directed it right into her face, while his held no change in expression. "Fight me..." Twas all he said, Kaiorin's frown formed back into a large grin and brought up her daggers in preparation. "It'll be my pleasure!" She replied enthusiastically, with both her daggers extended out in front of her vertically. Rough, gravel laughter emitted itself from the said woman, as her clamped teeth stayed in view. Her crimson eyes widened in excitement, knowing that she's going to fight a strong opponent.
She knew how to control her spiritual pressure, a little bit. So when she had released some of it, her aura flew into the air a ways which appeared like a wildfire; A large fire that one would see, when someone's burning a mass amount of tree limbs and wood. Though her reiatsu was strong, it wouldn't be as strong as a well trained soul reaper. Her long, black and spiked ponytail flailed rapidly with her reiatsu, as well as her black and ripped kimono.
The two behind the guy with the eye patch had shocked looks on their faces, her pressure was abnormal. "Her pressure...are intense flames that engulf her? That's rather strange isn't it, Captain Zaraki?" Yumichika asked after looking at his Captain, while the bald one held a large smile.
"Strange or not, she has power and that power isn't even remotely strong enough to give me a decent fight, I'm just satisfying her crave." The one known as Captain Zaraki, had spoken but, only to have Kaiorin leg sweep him off his feet and fall to the ground. Kaiorin stood back up swiftly, then drop kicked her leg down onto his head.
Kaiorin flinched in surprise at realizing that he had caught her foot with such ease but, the ground had cracked underneath him from the slight intensity. Her astonished face formed back to its wickedly excited feature; Zaraki pushed upward to knock her off balance so she'd fall flat on her butt, though doing so his theory had turned up to be the exact opposite. She had made a hand stand then performed a top spin, allowing herself to correct her footing so she could stand once again; She made multiple back flips backwards, to gain some distance between her and her opponent.
"C'mon, you wanted to fight! SO LET'S GO!" Kaiorin shown eagerness, as her face shown nothing but excite.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Half an hour later Kaiorin was panting with blood dripping from her wounds, trying to catch her breath while Captain Zaraki stood their, with a bit of an amused look on his face. Many by standers were watching the two from afar while murmuring amongst themselves, Yumichika and the bald one seemed a little amazed by the woman's efforts at her attempt to fight the ruthless Captain.
Captain Zaraki had gone easy on the woman; He knew if he had used more force in their spare, that she would've gotten killed. He was in no mood to kill anyone, especially a mere soul who soul reapers are meant to protect. "If you don't want to rely on anyone, then you will never learn...Come fight me again, when you're stronger." The tall Captain said, before turning his back to her and walking away. His coat softly waved from his pace while he put his sword back into its sheath, then soon was accompanied by the other two. Kaiorin sluggishly peered up to watch as they made their way back to where ever they had came from, making her click her tongue with an annoyed expression. "Gladly..." She muttered to herself vocally, then smirked. Her piercing slitted orbs grew determination, she had finally found someone that she could fight when ever she wanted...or at least she hoped.
The bald one paused in his tracks and turned to face Kaiorin with a grin. "The name's Ikkaku Madarame, what's yours?!" He shouted, hoping for a quick introduction before catching up to his Captain and Yumichika.
"Kaiorin Coumetsu!" She replied loudly so Ikkaku could hear; Though everyone knew of her full name in the Rukon district, she still disliked giving out her name considering that, it's a form of 'getting close' in which she hated the idea of. Ikkaku nodded and turned his tail to catch up with his captain and his friend. "We'll meet again...Mr. Spikes...~" She chuckled to herself, with the thought of her fighting him again. Within her eyes, the deep red and fiery color mixed into a spiral.
