Dark Blade 13 Invincible

"How? How are you not affected by my attack?!"

"Um let's see…when using Bankai, I'm invincible. The ice is as solid as steel and stronger against Spiritual Attacks, both physical and Kidou, than Sekiseki stone."

"But that would mean you can't use your own Kidou!"

"Really? I said against. Nothing else. I can use all the Kidou I want with my right hand and it will have no effect on the potency of my attack. You, however, won't be able to break the ice with anything."

"It's amazing. You have the skills specific for almost every division, all bunched into one person. I'm surprised you haven't defeated the commander in battle. Unless your ice isn't really impervious."

"Against Yama-jii's Fire element sword? Yea, it's like that. Anyways. It's over. Time to end the dream, Zenbonyukiro!" I lift the snow around Soi Fon-taicho and run forward, running my blade along the ground, creating a trail of ice behind me. "Oh, that's right, only a few captains have forced me to use my Bankai. So not many know about the fact that my blade turns anything it touches to ice." I swipe the blade across her stomach, not cutting, just freezing her. I nod to myself and sheathe my sword. "I won't kill you, Soi Fon-taicho. But I win. I'm sure someone will find you when the ice melts."

I jump up and run back to watch the fight between Onii-san and Kurosaki-kun. The damage! Already?! And Kurosaki-kun is matching Onii-san step for step. Wow. So he advanced that much? I find a high place and watch. It's a good thing I got high. Onii-san just released Zenbonzakura. Huh?! I cover my face as dust starts to fly. What happened? The dust starts to clear and the first person I see is Onii-san. What? No way, Kurosaki-kun knocked Onii-san's glove off with that hit? There's a giant line running through the ground beside Onii-san.

"What was that attack? Zangetsu-san's ability?" If that attack, whatever it is, heads in my direction, I'll have to get out of the way. It looks like Zangetsu-san is a Kidou base.

"Getsuga Tenshou!" Were they talking? I can't hear. Maybe I should move closer. Never mind, Onii-san is dropping his sword. He knows that I'm up here, but from before…I don't know if he won't bother to keep his blades away from me.

"Zenbonzakura Kageyoshi." I shudder, I've only seen that once, and it was in a practice fight just after I mastered my Bankai. I was extremely grateful to Zenbonyukiro that her ice is invincible.

"What is it with you Kuchiki and the sword names starting with 'Zenbon'?" I almost laugh when Kurosaki-kun uses that attack again. Onii-san has as much control over those blades as I do over the snow. The attack hits a wall of Onii-san's blades and I sigh. I'm glad I came up here to watch. The blades come around and attack Kurosaki-kun, he can't block it. Hurry up and use Bankai, Kurosaki-kun, you won't be able to survive against Onii-san's Bankai using Zangetsu-san's Shikai alone. Again with the dust? "Bankai!"

Haha! Yes! I cover my eyes and wait for the dust to settle. I can clearly see Onii-san's expression. He's in shock. Is Zangetsu-san's Bankai even bigger than the other two forms? I spot Kurosaki-kun through the dust. Wow. The blade is solid black, and so small. Even his clothes changed. That's rare, for a Shinigami to have such a drastic change in their appearance with Bankai. Kind of hot. I shake my head. I wonder how powerful that Getsuga Tenshou attack is now. A lot of times, a powerful attack like that will become even stronger in Bankai. His sword is so small. And it was so big sealed.

"That small thing? You're joking right? That's just the normal sealed form of your Zanpakuto." I shake my head and lock eyes with Onii-san.

"That's his Bankai. I've seen the sealed form of Zangetsu. It was huge." He nods slightly, trusting me. This is about to get really dangerous. I should either leave or step in and stop it before either of them end up seriously hurt. I think I'll just watch and see what happens. Kurosaki-kun's way faster now. Did releasing Bankai increase his speed as well? At that speed, Onii-san will have to control his blade with his hands, not just his mind. There. He's got him. What?! Kurosaki-kun is deflecting it with his sword! I can't follow it…it looks like a black transparent shield surrounding him. Huh? Kurosaki-kun disappeared. Oh! He's behind Onii-san! "Onii-san!" I start to jump in and stop the fight and Onii-san glares at me.

"Stay out of this, Nee-chan." I nod slowly and settle back down to watch.

"Senkei, Zenbonzakura Kageyoshi." I'm the only person that's ever seen this. And that's because I forced him to in a practice fight. I can't see through the rows of swords! But I know what's going to happen. Kurosaki-kun won't come out of that alive. I can hear the connection of swords. I guess I'll just have to wait until it's over. What?! Kidou? That's…Byakurai! What did Onii-san hit? His shoulder? Heart? What?! What is that? Kurosaki-kun's Reiatsu just turned towards the Hollow side. That laughter…coming from that fight…it's like a hollow.

"Onii-san!!" What is that black light?! Is that the Bankai version of Getsuga Tenshou? I have to…no. Onii-san said to stay out of it. "If you kill my brother, Kurosaki-kun…I'll kill you. Friends or not…it's unforgivable if you kill Onii-san." What? It feels like Kurosaki-kun is struggling against the Hollow. Did he become a Visored when he regained his Shinigami powers? Dust clears and I can see. Onii-san is all cut up! What just happened over there? I cover my eyes as light reflects blindingly off of Onii-san's final attack. I uncover my eyes and scream. "Onii-san!" They both got hit. I jump down and run over, catching Onii-san. "Onii-san, are you okay?" He nods and looks over his shoulder at Kurosaki-kun.

"You wanted to know…the reason for my support of Rukia's death. One, who commits a crime, must suffer the consequences. If one is sentenced to death, the execution must take place. Those are…the rules." "Just for a rule…you would kill someone…even if she is your own sister…?!"

"Are you referring to some sort of sibling bond? In the light of rules, things like that don't exist. The Kuchiki family is one of the four noble families. We are the role models for all Shinigami. If we do not obey the rules. Who will?"

"Sorry, I still don't get it. Looks like you're the only one that follows the rules. If I was you…I definitely would fight the rules." He sounds like Kaien-dono…I shake my head and hug Onii-san.

"Kurosaki Ichigo…your liberalness…shattered my blade. Therefore…I can no longer pursue Rukia. The victor of this battle…is you." That does it.

"Sit down, both of you. Before you kill yourselves."

"You sound like you're from Yonbantai."

"Shut up or I'll add an injury, Onii-san."
"Do you have multiple personalities or something, Kuchiki-san?" I glare at Kurosaki-kun.

"You want a sock to the head too, Kurosaki-kun?"

"Nope." He sits down and shuts up. I laugh and unsheathe Zenbonyukiro, releasing her halfway out of the sheathe.

Again with the healing? Why don't you leave that to the Yonbantai? Oh, never mind. I see. You owe me an explanation of Zangetsu-san's powers! Since I couldn't watch with you. I sigh and pluck her out of the air.

"If you'll wait, I'll bet you can get the explanation from Zangetsu-san himself." She pouts and squirms out of my hand, landing on Onii-san's head.

You're mean. I don't want to…hey wait a minute. That's not a bad idea. I roll my eyes.

"Before you go off talking to anyone, get these two healed, you little rat." She sticks out her tongue and sends a blast of snow at my face.

"Listen you little temper mental brat! I will seal you back up and not tell you anything about the fight."

Yea, yea. Is it just these two? I nod and snow surrounds the two guys, healing them.

"Thank you." Zenbonyukiro waves her hand and flies over to Kurosaki-kun.

"What the hell is that?!"

"She is Zenbonyukiro. You saw her the other day. Bakayaro." I sit down beside Onii-san. "Oh! Orihime-chan!" I get up and run over, hugging her.

"Hey guys! No problems I hope?"

"Not at all. Kiyone-san was very helpful."

"What happened here, Kuchiki-fukutaicho? What the?!" We all look back and I gasp. "Aizen-taicho…no way…"
