A/N: Okay... I've been inactive for like a couple of months now :( Sorry. College has been hectic; however, laziness overwhelms me in regards with this things. Still, my mind is flowing with ByaRuki drabbles so hopefully, I can put those those thoughts in writing~

Enjoy this drabble everyone! 3

Jigoku

You don't know the feeling.

You have no idea how this hurting sensation feels like when the captain commander told us that Abarai Renji and Kuchiki Rukia were assigned to investigate the unusual events happening in the real world caused by the Hell gates or anything involved with it.

Rukia…

I can let Renji go for he is, after all, my lieutenant, but Rukia?

I'm not sure.

Nonetheless, I was proud of her. Always. I believed she is already capable enough of handling things on her own.

Even so…

I can't face Yamamoto soutaichou and in addition, I can't defy his orders. I would have to be grateful to Ukitake taichou but I know well I would never be able t express such words. So I only kept my eyes closed and acted as if it's acceptable and it's the noble thing to do.

I was at the real world, patiently waiting for the Hell gates to appear and for her to come out. I know I would've gone there by myself but maybe as soon as my feet landed in that dread place, I wouldn't know what to do.

After all, I have no idea of her whereabouts.

It was sunset already and there's still no sign of them.

No sign of Rukia.

I had placed my hope to him even if I don't want to. In all honesty, it took me to say such deep words for him to get in gear.

Kurosaki Ichigo.

He really gets depressed so easily.

I know and understand why Rukia would do that. That's because I know her so well. Although, I didn't expect him to get back in shape after I said those; I think I'm speaking about Rukia and her view towards all these. Rukia really had left great impact towards this kid. I sighed weakly.

He better bring her safe in here or it'll be his head.

I sighed again; there's no time to think such things. I don't know what I'll do if I would lose her, and in such an awful place too. Subsequently, they came out. Inoue Orihime had managed to catch them through her but I would've been okay without it. I can just catch Rukia under my arms and just hold her like there's no tomorrow. As they landed alright, Rukia gazed at me and I did the same. She was smiling. Her sapphire eyes reflect a lot of happiness and the relief for herself and for me. We both know that it's over. That expression in her lovely face is enough.

Yes, it's enough…for now.
