Oh My Bleach!
Chapter 21: Whirlpool in the darkness
Theme Song: Disturbia – Rhianna
Authoress Note: Hi everyone! Omygawd, so much has happened! I'm soooo sorry that this has taken me so long! Here's what happened: My graphic design class got shut down, and my grandma wanted me to continue to go to school, and guess what? My dream of 4 years has finally come true! I'm now enrolled at the Art Institute of Tampa, majoring in Media Arts and Animation! Look forward to the "Oh My Bleach!" Fan Animation sometime soon!
So… Will Kenpachi and I be able to get to Hueco Mundo in time to save our kids or will Zorin/Colton kill them? *gasp* Find out now!
DISCLAIMER: I feel I should do another one of these now, in case you all didn't know… *ahem* I don't own any thing to do with Bleach or the theme songs I put to the chapters. They belong to their respective creators/owners. I DO however, own Myself, Colton, Choco, Cloudian, Charybdis, Asuka, Denkai, and Leon (Colton's kid). *Phew*
Okay, now… enjoy!

Zorin looked down at the small tiny bundle he would have called nii-chan… Had Amzy not let him die. It was all her fault. Now these poor little wretches would have to die because she was more concerned with her life than theirs. Suddenly, alarms started going off, waking the little brats and sending them into a crying fit. Lowly covered her ears in annoyance and shouted.
"GET THEM TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!" A sound slap from Zorin sent her flying across the room.
"I'll go see what is wrong. In the meantime, don't touch them. Not until it's time."
XXX
Lowly and Menoly watched their Espada, "Zorin" walk out of the room, leaving them alone with the twins. An evil smirk crossed their faces as they turned… and found the babies missing!
"What the hell? What did you do with them, Menoly?"
"What did I do? What the hell did you do, Lowly? I was standing here the entire time!"
"Me too!"
"You girls really outta be more diligent when it comes to guard duty." A familiar curved blade slashed the air and rid the two nuisance Fraccion of their heads.

Zorin bowed low as Aizen passed him in the hall.
"Hello, Octiva."
"Sir… what is going on?"
"You mean you don't know? Apparently Amethyst and Kenpachi have broken into Los Noches to retrieve their little darlings." Zorin's eyes widened. Amzy? Here? This wouldn't do…
"I shall apprehend them, sir."
"Very well. Crush them."
"Sir."

I looked about everywhere for Colton and my children. If that little brat had hurt them, I would tear his heart from his chest and shove it up his ass! In my rage, I switched into berserker mode without uttering my chant.
"Amzy, let me—"
"He was my friend Kenpachi… I'll do it."
"Mommy, can I have a cookie?'
XXX
Zorin looked over Amzy and Kenpachi. Kenpachi was just as frightening as ever, but Amzy… Was simply terrifying to him. He was so used to having her protect him that he never actually thought she'd come after him.
"This isn't funny."
"Oh, on the contrary. It is very funny." A roar of fury tore from her throat as she lunged for him, her claws barely grazing him.
"You have a lot of fucking nerve, runt. I'll just have to put you in your place."
"But mommy would never hurt he son" She glared at him in rage. Electricity exploded from her and shot towards him. It took all of his speed and concentration to dodge her attack. When it was over, Amzy had disappeared.
"You are not my son. My son is with his sister in whatever god-forsaken place you put them here." She drove her claws into his back and sent him flying toward a huge rock. It shattered upon impact. "Know this, Zorin… I WILL KILL YOU!"
XXX
Kenpachi looked worriedly at Amzy.
"Hey, let me—"
"Thank you, Kenpachi, but I will be fine… I need to do this."
"You sure?" She turned back and gave him a gentle, loving smile.
"Yes." He sat down on a boulder to watch.
"Fine. But if it get's too outta control I'm getting involved." She gave a small chuckle and nodded.
"Fair enough." She turned back to Zorin. "Boy oh boy are you in for a show."
XXX
I glared at Zorin and carved yet another long, deep gash, this time into his side.
"I came here to stop you and kill you… so I shall." He pulled his Zanpaku-to out and held it to his throat. "Mutilate… Lyconis!" Smoke exploded in all directions around him, and when it cleared, I saw his Ressurcision. He had wolf-like ears in his hair, and a scarf that covered his nose and mouth. He had some gray markings on his skin, but other than that he looked normal. Of course, looks can hide the truth…
"No matter if you are truly an Espada. No matter if you have become stronger than me. No matter what. I WILL leave here WITH my children ALIVE." Zorin only smirked.
"Face it. I'm gonna kill you. You're too weak." He soon had his fist embedded in her abdomen. Her eyes wide in pain, her blood dripping from her mouth and the wound in her now. "You're dead, Amzy. Face it."
XXX
I looked about me, surrounded in white. No. I can't be dead! NO!
"Master, please calm down. You can't hear me if you're freaking out like that." I turned to see a creature behind me. He looked like a merman with metal wings and metal horns jutting out of his head. "You need to call on me or you will die and you will never save your children."
"Who…Who are—"
"I am Charybdis. I'm surprised Cloudian didn't tell you about me."
"Well, she did, but… I thought you were just a shard of stone!"
"No, I'm more along the lines of a Zanpaku-to." He smirked at me tenderly. "Well, you have the hole in you, now call my name and we can defeat him."
"What happens if I do?"
"Just do it and see."

Zorin frowned. He was sure she should be dead. But her heart was still beating. He was sure that his fist was all the way through her. But her bleeding had stopped. He was sure he had won. Until she spoke.
"Engulf…"
"What are-"
"CHARYBDIS!" It began to storm and thunder as mist engulfed her form. Zorin removed his fist from Amethyst's abdomen as he rushed to avoid it. The mist seemed harmless, but it was burning the fur lining on his clothes, going all the way to the cloth before he got far enough away. Then the sky changed to a giant whirlpool and the mist vanished into it. Amethyst stood there, practically naked save for the bikini-like outfit she wore, long, black boots that turned into clawed feet, white, clawed gloves, and sharp horns that protruded from her red hair.
"Now, let's start over." She growled as she rushed him. Even her tail was different. Instead of having spikes at just the end, it was covered in spikes. Making it difficult for him to just throw her aside. He dodged her attacks until he realized that he was on the defensive. She was stronger than him.
"Gran ray…" He began to power up a Cero. Amethyst began to charge her attack, energy forming at all ten fingers. "CERO!"
"TENSEND CERO!" She released the energy just as he did, firing off an even bigger Cero than even his Gran Ray. His attack was shattered and his body felt the sting of her Cero. He realized then his mistake. He had it all wrong. And that was why he was defeated. He lay on the ground, bleeding profusely.
"W-Why…?" Was all he could sputter.
"Because I wasn't the one who killed you. You never, EVER should have threatened my children." She glared down at him. "Heh. I guess you really don't remember anything at all… There is nothing left of Colton… is there?" A hint of sadness touched her voice as she spoke the last bit.
A tear falling from her eye as she switched back to regular was the last thing he saw before everything became black.

Kenpachi looked at Amzy as she slowly took her normal form.
"I never knew you could use ressurcision." She turned to him and gave a short laugh.
"Neither did I." Suddenly she clutched her abdomen and fell to her knees. Kenpachi rushed to her side. Blood soaked her hands and the sand beneath her. "Guess that was my limit." She fell unconscious to the ground. In desperation Kenpachi tore off his Captain's Haori and ripped it into ribbons. He bunched a handful together and used the rest to bind the makeshift bandage to her. Suddenly Nnoitra sonidoed towards them, Carrying two bundles towards them. He set them on the ground and sneered.
"Hey Shinigami."
"Shut the fuck up. I'm busy."
"I'm talking to you!"
"Well she's gonna die if you don't shut the fuck up and leave!"
"I will! But you should know that Szayel's here too." He looked down at Amethyst's unconscious body. "Guess you win this one… Pinky will heal her and then you two take your brats and get the fuck out." Kenpachi looked at him warily as said Pinky approached and healed the girl. Her eyes opened and she instantly went on defensive.
"What…?"
"Relax, we're more concerned with getting you two to leave." She looked confused at the two of them. "Aizen's gone too far, even for our tastes. Mind you, we will still fight the same fight, we just need to 'fix' some things." Szayel stood. "But there is no reason behind killing a defenseless mother and her children" He pointed them the way they came. "As much as I like you, you need to leave now."
"Okay, this is too weird… But I'm okay with it!" Amethyst scooped up Denkai, checked him over to make sure that he was safe and well, handed him to Kenpachi and then scooped up Asuka. Both children were unharmed.
"Get the fuck out before we change our minds." Nnoitra looked away bitterly. "Even I know when chasing down a woman is pointless." Without another word Kenpachi ushered Amethyst back to the Gargantua. As much as he wanted to fight them, it could wait. He was more concerned about protecting his family.

A/N: There you have it folks! The climactic ending to Zoren Nikken. Hopefully I will have the next chapter up before the months end, that is unless school gets to be a pain.
