AN: I read Bleach 502 yesterday and was devastated to see my favorite character killed this way however I'm still hopeful that Byakuya will survive this. Anyways this is the events of 502 from Renji's POV I'm a huge fan of RenBya and just seeing Renji lose his temper from seeing Byakuya defeated made my heart go out to him. I hope you enjoy.

Warning: SPOILER FOR BLEACH CHAPTER 502! CHARACTER DEATH AND HINTS OF SHOUNEN-AI.


~ The End~

Watching Sebonzakura tear him apart as he kept trying to fight Äs Nödt too proud to admit that he can't win by himself. Seeing him like this is terrible not just because I'd fallen in love with him but also seeing my perfect captain broken. I watch horrified as he falls to the ground covered in his own blood. I'd never seen anything like this happen before Byakuya Kuchiki was supposed to be invincible.

I can't help but attack when I see him crumble to the ground I'm terrified that he will die. It pisses me off that this bastard is talking down to him! How dare he! Byakuya who had trained for so long to perfect his technique. Byakuya who shouldered every burden on his own so no one else had to suffer. Byakuya who would do anything to protect his loved ones. I just couldn't stop myself from rushing head on I was furious as I charged forward I knew this bastard didn't deserve to use Sebonzakura. Sebonzakura was beautiful perfect just like him. Sebonzakura was a part of Byakuya's soul it represented who he was. How dare this bastard tear that away from him, how dare he turn it on him.

When he blocks my Zabimaru with ease I feel a sense of helplessness I can't save Byakuya... I can't even protect the one I love... Those are my only thoughts as I'm engulfed in a stream of pink, Byakuya's sword turned against us, destroying us... Out of the corner of my eyes I see Byakuya get up again trying to help me, to protect me even with those injuries he's still trying to keep me save... I can't imagine how much pain. He has a strong will to get up after being hit by his own bankai and to be able to attack again. He is amazing...

I watch in horror as he disappears in a stream of Cherry Blossoms I can feel his reiatsu fading. I see his beautiful face covered in blood his mouth opened in a silent scream his eyes opened wide in shock and pain. There is so much blood. When it stops for a second I see him falling only to be attacked again. My heart shattered into a million pieces as I watch Sebonzakura Kageyoshi crush Byakuya into the wall his blood spilling out of so many wounds. I'd never seen him like that completely defeated, completely broken. I don't think anyone can survive something like that a part of me wants to belief that he is alive that he'll pull through somehow... but I know that is just wishful thinking.

I'm screaming for Äs Nödt to stop I know I'm not supposed to use my bankai but I can't think of anything else to help save him. I wanted the power to be able to protect him but as I'm sent flying away from the man I love I realize I'm not strong enough. I hear him whisper my name as I begin to lose consciousness he is asking me to forgive him and my heart asks for the same thing for I failed to protect the man I love with all my heart. As my sight fades to black I feel his presence from this world fade... Byakuya Kuchiki the love of my life is dead.
