How much a human still wants to believe she's the perfect predator and how much she thinks she's not a prey, it's very easy to kill her. There is not only one way to kill her, but extremely many ways. Tear off a body part, chop her, shoot her, suck her blood, cut of her head, pierce her with a sharp object, wipe out organs from her body, stick out her eyes and so on.

This the young men, Byakuya, Renji and Ichigo got a taste of the moment Rukia let the beast take control of her and attacked the people who wanted to hurt her. In a heartbeat she had tear of the head of one man just to in the next slit the throat of another with her sharp nails. The third man she broke the neck off with a single strike and the fourth got his two arms torn.

Renji probably got the most brutal death. Rukia struck all her hand and a piece of arm through his chest and took hold of his heart. During his last seconds of life, Renji heard Rukia whisper "Payback is a bitch, right?" before he got his heart torn out of the body. Rukia was not satisfied with this, but she put her fangs in Renji's heart and poured out all the blood before it was pumped out on the ground.

All in all, all this killing had not taken more than half a minute. None of the men Rukia killed had seen it coming or had had time to even try to defend themselves. The only one who lived was Byakuya and he stared in horror at the creature that once had been his beloved daughter. The only thing he could see now was nothing but a monster who did nothing more than mutilate and kill for its own pleasure. How much it hurt him, he understood that he could not kill Rukia, not now that she had recovered her full strength and had healed all the wounds that Renji had caused her and that weakened her so much that they could have been able to kill her.

The only thing he could hope for now was a quick and painless death.

As if Rukia had read his thoughts, she turned to Byakuya. She was covered with fresh blood from top to toe and had a happy smile on her lips. No one who saw that smile could misunderstand it: Rukia had enjoyed every single killing blow. "Hi dad. I suppose that now when you have seen my true side it can not be much love for me left in there in your heart, right? That's okay, because I have been waiting for this day to come for many years now. I am not angry at you, but I am mostly sad that it had to happen. I am not going to kill you because I love you too much to live with the knowledge of having killed one of the few people I loved more than anything else. Say hello to mom from me and tell her I love her, will you?"

Rukia walked up to her father, gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek before she went back to Ichigo. She took his hand and led him away from Byakuya without once looking back, leaving her old life behind her never to return.

They did not say anything as they walked through the dark forest, but just held each other's hands as they walked side by side. Every now and then they gave each other a look and smiled against each other, but they still did not say anything. Eventually they arrived at a small lake in the middle of the forest, not far from the glade where they first met. There, Rukia dropped into the cold water and began to wash the blood from her body. Even though she thought it was a waste of food, she did not want to scare Ichigo more than she probably already had. It probably hadn't been easy for him to see her kill so easily and so brutally. Rukia was wondering if Ichigo really could think of living with someone like her, now that he had seen what she was capable of.

As if Ichigo was able to read her thoughts, he slid down behind Rukia and helped her get rid of the last of the blood from her hair. He told Rukia to lean back on his chest and while he was washing her hair, he said, "I've always known you were able to kill Rukia. I know what I'm getting into and have known it ever since I found out what you were. You being a vampire does not change anything. My love is still as strong for you now as before. I love you, Kuchiki Rukia."

Rukia shook her head and turned around so she could look into Ichigo's amber eyes. "My name is not Kuchiki anymore. In the same moment as I left my father, I also abandoned his name. From now on, I'm Kurosaki Rukia."

Ichigo pulled Rukia close in a passionate kiss and began to stroke his wet hands all over her body. He could feel how Rukia shivered from his touch and how an animal desire began to rise from within both of them. It did not take many seconds before Ichigo could feel how Rukia's pussy embraced his hard cock and how she began to move along his entire limb.

"Oh, God, Rukia..." Rukia did not answer but let her fangs grow and bit on Ichigo's throat, on the same place where she had drank not so long ago to regain her powers. She wanted to taste his blood again since she could not get enough of it. Just as she could not get enough of the feeling of Ichigo inside her.

While Rukia drank from him, Ichigo was so encumbered that he exploded inside Rukia with such power that he thought he would pass out from the pleasure. Just when Rukia was going to stop drinking, he put a hand on her head and prevented her from being able to stop drinking. "No, Rukia. I want you to turn me. I want to live the rest of my life with you. I do not want to fade away while you continue to be young and live on. Make me a vampire, Rukia."

Ichigo could not see it, but Rukia had a smile on her lips that could not be misinterpreted. She had been waiting to hear Ichigo say these words to her and now that she was finally told them she was met by a happiness she did not think she would ever experience again. The idea of spending eternity with the person she loved was overwhelming.

She nodded and began to suck more and more blood from Ichigo. When he was dying she made a cut in her wrist and pushed it against Ichigo's lips. "Drink!"

Without a slightest hesitation, Ichigo began drinking from Rukia, and in the same moment Ichigo's lips met her wrist, Rukia was taken over by pleasure. She moaned high and pushed her body against Ichigo while he drank. While she told him that it was enough she came with such power that her whole body was shaking from the pleasure. Rukia made herself comfortable against Ichigo that was sleeping from consuming all his powers. Rukia knew it would not take long before he stopped breathing and died.

After a while, Rukia noticed that Ichigo's breathing had disappeared and not long after that he opened his eyes, which now besides amber had a shade of red. At the same moment as he turned his head and looked at her, she smiled. "Welcome back from the dead, Ichigo."
