Walking on The Line

A/N: Okay, I know it's been about a week since I wrote another chapter for Walking on The Line. So, here it is! I hope it turns out okay.

Chapter 9: Suppress or not?

Seiren managed to withstand the reiatsu explosion on the cliff above her. When she listened to thoughts all around her, she noticed that there were fights breaking out everywhere. This was slightly annoying to Seiren since she was still wondering who was the owner of the weak thought she just barely heard in the jail cell. She knew it sounded too familiar but she still couldn't figure out who it was. Seiren decided to forget about the thought and get to the top of the cliff.

'Hm… if I go up the other side of the cliff where it's just like a hill, I'll probably be seen by death gods. I guess I'll climb up this side… even though it's a pretty insane rock climbing stunt.' Thought Seiren. Just as she reached the top, she listened closely for thoughts that had noticed her. Suddenly, a voice spoke in her head.

"Can everybody hear me? This is vice captain Kotetsu Isane of the 4th division speaking. Please listen carefully, everything I'm about to say is all true…"

After hearing Isane's entire message, Seiren was extremely confused. 'Who is the central 46? I suppose Aizen is the bad guy in this situation…' thought Seiren. Just then, she overheard a conversation through mind reading not to far away from the cliff. It was Ichigo and his comrades.

"Aizen's goal is to kill Kuchiki-san!"

'Rukia!' thought Ichigo in panic.

'Alright, I've decided I'm going to help these death gods and kill Aizen for them.' Thought Seiren to herself as she slowly peeked over the top of the cliff. She saw a man with spiky red hair holding a girl with black hair protectively. 'That must be Rukia.' Thought Seiren. There were three other men standing in front of them. One with rectangular glasses, one whose face was very fox-like and one who was blind. The one with the glasses was fighting with Abarai Renji the red haired man. Renji was obviously overpowered by the other man; Aizen Sousuke.

'That's crazy! That Aizen is insanely strong! How the hell am I supposed to fight him?!' Seiren thought. Before long, Ichigo showed up and fought Aizen and lost as well. Both Ichigo and Renji were in critical condition. Unable to move from the spot on the ground where they fell.

"Now get up Kuchiki Rukia." Said Aizen. Despite the smile on is face; the words he spoke seemed to be drenched in venom and malicious intent. He walked towards Rukia who was paralyzed with fear. 'Shit! It's now or never!' Seiren thought nervously as she shot out from her hiding place. She pulled out her katanas/zanpakutous Hoshikuro. She dashed between Aizen and Rukia.

"Get back you evil bastard!" Seiren screamed at Aizen. Aizen in turn looked down at her.

"Who are you? You aren't one of those ryokas." Aizen asked.

"I'm Takahashi Seiren! I don't know what you want but I'm not gonna let you get it without a fight!" At the moment, Seiren knew that the fight wasn't going to end well. But she decided that it was time to start.

"NO! Stop Seiren!" Ichigo yelled but she had already dashed in front of Aizen and slashed at him. Aizen had dodged quickly. Seiren knew her mind reading would help her a bit. As long as her reaction time was fast enough. She had used a couple jutsu and was beginning to tire out. It seemed that everyone was surprised at the techniques she was using since they had never seen ninjutsu before. Even Aizen was moderately surprised that Seiren could dodge the majority of his attacks. Finally, Aizen decided to use a kidou attack.

"Destructive art number four. White lightning."

Seiren didn't know what she could do to stop it and it was to late to dodge. She was sent flying backwards from the impact and she was burnt badly. She had also broken some bones when she impacted the ground. She clenched her teeth and shut her eyes tightly to keep her consciousness and bear with the pain.

'You're so weak Seiren.'

'HUH?! A voice in my head again! It's that person's voice again."

'Yes. It's me. Why do you sound so unhappy to hear your dear twin brother's voice?' he said in a mocking tone.

'Go away! I'm in pain here!'

'That's exactly why I'm here. Use the dragon's power to heal yourself and kill that man over there…'

'NO! I won't do that!' But in reality, she was very tempted to use the dragon's powers. The pain was almost unbearable and if she lost consciousness, the dragons would control her anyways. It was hard to not lose consciousness and chose not to use the dragons. Half of her told her to use the power. The other half told her not to.

'C'mon! Do it!'

'No! Get back you maniac!' she screamed in her head. She used her chakra to push him back into the depths of her mind. Seiren gasped for air. She had almost no energy left. She would lose consciousness if this continued. She looked down at her wrist. The reiatsu suppressing bracelet was still attached.

'If I cut this, it'd better give me some energy!' She used her katana and cut off the restrainer. Immediately, she felt a small energy increase in her body. It wasn't much since the bracelet was on for so long but it was enough to keep her in full consciousness.

"Oh? What this? You're still conscious? And I thought that last kidou would kill you. But you still can't move because that electricity would've fried a good number of muscles." He went over to Rukia and removed a small object from her soul.

"What a surprise! The hougyoku is awfully small!" Aizen said as he dropped Rukia to the ground. There was a hole in her chest that was disappearing.

"Oh. The recipient is unharmed? What an incredible technique! Unfortunately… you are no longer of any use to me. Kill her Gin." Aizen said carelessly.

"LET GO OF HER YOU BASTARD." Seiren said menacingly at Aizen. She had gotten up on her feet and she was glowing light blue. There were small fangs starting to grow out of her mouth and her eyes were completely filled with blue energy. She glared at Aizen.

A/N: That wasn't as good as I would've liked it to be. Sorry about that. Anyways, I'd like if you helped me decide if Seiren should get possessed by her dragons and rampage or if she should suppress it or… anything else. Please help me decide that in reviews. Thanks! -Neesa
