Bleach oneshot, Because I felt inspired, and because I can
;P
Have you ever witnessed a fight between two gods?
Their shrieks piercing the dark heavens
Their crushing power, clouding your mind, stunting your breath and breaking your knees
The clash of their swords, a swing able to level mountains
The world warping to their whims.
The fear gripping at your heart as you back away from their path of destruction
The hopelessness around you as the landscape disintegrates
The grace as they face each other like dancers, unfazed
The quiet anticipation surrounding them. The reverence
The knowledge that their fight will never stop until one of them dies
The inability to look away
Those black and yellow eyes
Void of emotion
Those piercing emerald eyes
Taking emotion back
...
...
I was there
I saw them
I witnessed their dance
Under a dark sky and a haunting silver moon
They swinged and dodged and destroyed
...
...
I knew one of them
He was my friend
He always fought and sacrificed, to protect us from harm
As if we were his most precious things
He trained and got stronger. Fought and got faster
With each battle, his soul toughened
Hardened
Distanced itself away
The more he sacrificed, the more his power reached the heavens
To protect me, he was ready to die
To protect me, he became a god
...
...
And now, as I observe his long orange locks, his porcelain skin, his horns, his claws
Standing tall, at heavens top
I realize I just might not know him
Any longer
