I hope you get the ending If a lot of people are just like 'say wha?' then Ill be more specific but I didnt want to be like well this and this and this happened and this is what ended up
REMEMBER TO REVIEW!
Would he have done it? If a blade was placed at both their neck and there was no possible way of escape would he have given his life for Yumi's safety?
In the Eleventh giving your life for someone else's was cowardly and selfish, yet here he was thinking which was more important, what a few brutes thought of him or what Yumichika thought of him.
The brutes would talk about what an idiot he was and speak little of his strength; Yumi would speak for days about how incredible he was. The Soul Society was full of hundreds of nameless faces that wouldn't know anything; Yumi was the one guy who he could recognize in a crowd instantly and was one of the most intelligent people he knew. The other people knew nothing about him and he barely knew them; Yumichika was with him long before Ikkaku had seen or known any of those other people and they knew everything about each other. Those greedy idiots would sell him out in an instant; Yumi wouldn't for the world.
Yumi was worth more than all those other people combined, so why was this such a hard decision? Yumichika's opinion was worth more than the opinion of anyone else's. So why was he unsure if he would give his life for Yumi?
Why couldn't he understand what had just happened? Why did he have this gut wrenching feeling of guilt and why was he in worse pain now than he had ever been in? Was he, in the smallest part of his mind, afraid of death or showing weakness? Was he too concerned with what everyone else thought of him? Was he a slave to that one rule of the Eleventh? Was he just a stupid and selfish weakling?
As he stared at the corpse in front of him he realized, he, Ikkaku Madarame, one of the most powerful soul reapers in the Gotei 13, wasn't sure if he was strong enough to do what Yumichika had just done. And for the first time in his life, Ikkaku cried.
I hope you liked it! Pretty please tell me what you think and sheres a waffle if you do → # SUPER IMPORTANT: YOU WILL REVIEW BECAUSE YOU READ THIS! Thanks machi-tan
