The Art of Fighting Chapter 13: Fight!

Well, you've all been waiting for it, and here it is! the battle between Yoruichi and Vega is here at last! I've actually been waiting to do this chapter since the beginning, and here I though that this story was going to be just a oneshot...but here we are twelve chapters later...funny how things work out! BTW, Starscream cookies rule!


Yoruichi and the others had finally made it to the place that was listed on the map, an old abandoned warehouse on the docks near the outskirts of Karakura Town. Urahara was looking around as they got out of the car, they were prepared for the worst of what Aizen could through at them. But nothing happened, at least for the next fifteen minutes, untill two black sudans and a black limo showed up. People began to emerge from said vehicles, the first one being Ulquiorra Chifer.

"Welcome" said the bat as he bowed "Please, follow us" he said as he went into the limo, then Kisuke and the others followed, but espada number four had turned around to the others.

"Only Miss Shihoin is permited to come with us, do the rest of you have an invitation?" asked Ulquiorra

"Yeah, we've got one" said Urahara as he showed the disk that had Aizen's presentation

"Very well,please come with us" said espada number four as he went back into the limo and waited.

"Well, here goes" said Yoruichi as she started to let go of Soi Fon's hand, but she was slightly yanked back as Soi Fon had whispered "Please come back to me"

"Don't worry about me Soi Fon, how about after this is over, I finally take you out on a date?" the former captain of squad two said softly, her younger friend started to tear up, but then she finally let go of her love's hand and off she went with Ulquiorra.

"Follow us" said the bat as everyone had gotten back into their cars and drove off.


30 minutes...30 minutes before the battle to end all battles begins, Yoruichi was meditating in a fancy locker room that seemed to be a little too much, but that's what to expect with Aizen. The former squad two captain had intentions to try and quickly defeat Vega, and then take care of the brunnete boy, and finally bring him to justice for the murder of her father. One of the officials knocked on the door, and entered.

"Twenty minutes, Miss Shihoin, are you needing anything" asked the official, although the black cat just sat still and continued meditation, which slightly scared the official.

"V-Very well then" said the man as he hastily exited the room.


"It's here, It's finally here" said Aizen as he looked down from his balcony like seating, the stadium was filling with excited fans, all unaware of what was really at stake. Orihime walked into the room a few seconds later to see what Aizen was up to.

"Sosuke, what's going on?" she asked

"Hm?" the dangerous soul reaper turned around and caught sight of his beautiful girlfriend's face, his smile widened as he brought the princess into a kiss. As he broke the kiss, he looked at the younger girl with a warm smile and took her hand and sat down in the chairs.

"It's something I've been planning on seeing the past two weeks, before I move on to new projects" answered Aizen. Orihime didn't quite get what was going on, but she would gladly sit down with her love and enjoy a sporting spectial, but she started to get that weird, dark vibe again, but this time...she could feel it from her boyfriend's dark stare as he looked out at the main ring.

"Sosuke, whats the matter?" thought the princess who put her hand on the brunette's X Yoruichi had started walking down towards the main ring, she was wearing a tight black suit with a white scarf and sash with a picture of a hornet on the front, she had originally wanted to make the costume for Soi Fon (For their naughty time of course) but she found a more pratical use for it, as a fighting suit...and besides she looked good in it.

...

...

"There was a joke in there somewhere right?" said Yoruichi breaking the 4th wall

...Ahem...yeah...it was.

Finally, Ggio Vega had shown himself, the boy responsible for destroying the Kurosaki Clinic, the ruthless attacks on innocent people, and now was about to face Yoruichi again in the battle to decide martial arts champion. It's been a long time, but this was finally going to happen. Ichigo didn't go to special sky box seating like the others, he had wanted to get to Aizen first, and settle the score, for having his house destoried, but even as he wanted to do that...there was still his thoughts on Orihime Inoue, the girl that he loves.

"Just you wait Aizen you clown, you're gonna pay for making my family suffer!" thought the strawberry

"We've got to keep an eye out for anything weird" said Urahara, as the referee had finally gotten into the ring to announce both of the fighters names and what the battle was for.

"W-Where's Ichigo?" said Ukitake as he looked around for the substitute soul reaper, but no such luck


Aizen was still in the sky box observing the scene below, with Orihime sitting down watching it with him. He was wondering what Yoruichi had planned for the match,but Aizen remembers the way Yoruichi fought when they trained together under Yoruichi's father Ken Shihoin. The dangerouus soul reaper had been longing for the day that he would be able to overthrow the Shihoin family's prestegious fighting style,it was so annoying that he had to play second bananna to that girl who was "So Talented" and "So Smart"...He couldn't stand it! At the time he constantly heard praise and adoration gonig Yoruichi's way, he had finally snapped and decided to plan a way to get rid of Ken Shihoin, once and for all. Once he does that, he will move on with his life, he'd never have to be nice to idiots ever again, nor take pity on others. In other words, he could show his true colors.

*Flashback*

"Heya Sosuke! How's it going?" said the black cat as she slapped the squad five captian on the back

"Oh! Yoruichi I did not see you there, yes I am fine" said Aizen as he readjusted himself

"Yeah,I was just talking to my dad...he said that he was going to teach us a new fighting style soon, I'm so excited" squeaked the black cat

"Hm, sounds interesting, I can't wait either" said Aizen as he closed the book he was reading on the philosophical aspects of martial arts.

"Yeah I know, I wish my friend was here to train with us...she'd love it. Oh hey did you here? those guys from the martial arts magazine want to give me an endorsement to do another tournament and if I can win, I get all sorts of cool stuff! Isn't that awesome?" said the dark skinned girl, Aizen only smiled in reply, he was happy that his friend is starting to become more successful as she continues her training,but in actuality, he didn't excatly enjoy her going on about all of the cool things that she was expecting. He didn't care, he just wanted to finish his own training and possibly defeat her on his own.

A few days later...

"Alright then, Start!" signaled Ken as he, Yoruichi, Aizen, and Kukkaku had started a sparing match...but with Yoruichi and Kukkaku. The fireworks expert had tried to land a few punches on her dark skinned friend, but she blocked them and tried to land a kick on her, but Kukkaku moved back and punched the black cat in the arm, but Yoruichi had grabbed Kukkaku's new prostetic arm and slammed her into the ground.

"AH! Dammit!" she said

"That's enough you two, this sparring match is over" said Yoruichi's father "Very good both of you, you both are improving greatly" he gave that big smile, which always makes the former squad two captian smile.

"Thanks dad, that means a lot comming from you" she said blushing along with Kukkaku

"Pratice is over for today, It's Aizen's birthday today, and we've got to throw him a party in his honor!" said Ken as he walked out of the room full of glee and anticipation.

"Oh, you didn't have to do anything special for me" Aizen started to say but was cut off by Ken

"Nonsense, we're throwing you a party and that's-"

*BANG!* *BANG!* *BANG!*

In the blink of an eye...Yoruichi, Kukkaku, and Aizen saw blood spew out of Ken Shihoin as he fell to the floor like a rock.

"*Gasp!* DAD!" screamed Yoruichi, as she saw the person she loves the same way she does Soi Fon now, die instantly.

"DAAAAAAD, DAAAAAAAAD! NOOOOOO!" screamed the dark skinned girl as the doors burst open and several men dressed in black came through and started tear up the place, as if they were looking for something. Yes, Aizen was responsable for Ken Shihoin's death, due to a false claim that he had stolen a priceless yet extremly valuable artifact from a museum that belonged to a crime family, coencidentaly, Ken was in that area participating in a martial arts demonstration.

*End Flashback*


Ichigo had made it on the east side of the, stadium,still in search of Aizen had started to get close, but Ichigo had ran into someone he didn't expect to see.

"And just where do you think you're going Ichigo Kurosaki" said a familliar gruff voice, it was none other than Grimmjow Jaggerjack. Ichigo was so close to getting to Aizen, he didn't have time to fight against that wackjob, but it look like he wouldn't have much of a choice, and besides...you can't make everything easy for the good guys.

"Seriously?" said Ichigo breaking the 4th wall with his trademark scowl


That will be all for this chapter, next chapter will have the fight in its entierty and then we will all find out, who is strongest! between Yoruichi and Ggio Vega, and Ichigo's fight against Grimmjow, and possibly others. I'm going to possibly put the final few chapters out or at least try to before this month is over, because I have to go back to Dallas for four days.

Nyaaaaaaaa!
