Warning – Swearing, fighting.
-:-
Okay, I left out an important thing at the beginning of the event. Sorry! So, the fighting area is like a large concrete stage, and if one opponent falls over the edge and hits the ground the person not on the ground wins. If one opponent forfeits, the other wins. If one is knocked unconscious the other wins, and so on and so forth. And absolutely no killing!
Now, back to the fight.
-:-
Aina yelled and jumped in the air, bringing her sword down with all her might. Riko blocked it easily with a bored look on her face. This is it? She figured that she would be a little bit stronger. Aina landed on the ground and repeatedly swung her sword, her frustration growing when the taller woman blocked each other while moving back slightly.
The small brown haired woman raised her sword and swung down. Riko scoffed before swinging her sword upwards. Aina widened her eyes and grunted, skidding backwards, digging her feet into the concrete to stop herself. She looked up with wide eyes.
One attack made her skid back...?
She widened her eyes when Riko jumped forward, swinging her sword down with a smirk on her face. She held up her sword and blocked it, narrowing her eyes and gritting her teeth when her knees almost gave way. Riko raised her sword and swung repeatedly with a wide grin on her face.
Aina was on defensive, jumping back and blocking each attack as quickly as she could, her eyes wide with shock.
How can she not be hitting her?
She has a seat while that fool didn't!
It didn't make any sense.
She widened her eyes and gasped when Riko reached forward and grabbed the front of her robes, lifting her in the air. Aina narrowed her eyes and swung down, gritting her teeth with the black haired woman blocked her attack. Riko was frowning now.
"This is it?" Riko asked, narrowing her eyes at the same time her frown grew. "I thought you would be at least strong enough to inflict some damage on me." She said, curling her upper lip and scoffing. "So show me... how strong you are!" She yelled.
She suddenly turned and hurled the woman towards the sky, hearing her scream loudly. She smirked and stabbed her sword in the ground, jumping off the surface. She jumped high in the air until she was right above the brown haired woman. Aina widened her eyes, seeing the demonic grin on Riko's face until she flipped and slammed her leg against her abdomen, knocking the breath out of her. She was hurled towards the ground.
When she made contact a large cloud of smoke flew into the air.
Riko flipped around in the air and pulled her fist back, a large grin spreading across her face. When she made contact the cloud of smoke grew larger, making people widen their eyes. This was a serious fight. If it wasn't, they never wanted to fight that black haired woman. Aina flew back out of the dust, hitting the ground several times before coming to a stop.
She groaned and gritted her teeth, pushing herself up and looking upwards.
Riko walked out of the smoke with a smirk on her face, looking extremely satisfied. She hasn't let loose like this for a long time. She narrowed her eyes and grinned, seeing Aina stand up and hold her hand up with anger burning in her eyes.
"H-Hado thirty-three,"
A blank look crossed Riko's face. Why does everyone know how to use kido when all hers exploded in her face?
"Sokatsui!" Aina yelled, blue light glowing in her hand before it blasted and went towards the other woman.
Riko smirked. Inches from her face... she moved to the side, watching as it went by and hit an invisible shield around them. Aina widened her eyes. She dodged it? She gasped when Riko disappeared, looking around the area with wide eyes, her hands clenched tightly around her sword.
Where was she?
Aina raised her head before jumping from where she stood, seeing Riko's foot hit right where she had been standing moments ago. She sucked in a quick breath when she saw the concrete crack from under the woman's foot. The black haired woman turned with wide eyes and a large grin on her face.
Aina widened her eyes and coughed violently, flying backwards.
Riko grabbed her ankle and slammed her into the ground.
"C'mon!" Riko yelled, giving the woman a grin. "I thought you were gonna kill me! I thought you wanted to hurt me! Then what the hell is this?" She asked, roughly grabbing the woman's hair and lifting her up. "You can't even lay a damn finger on me!"
Aina gritted her teeth and closed her eyes tightly. She's never had a fight like this before. She opened one eye, staring at the woman with anger, seeing her giving her a smirk. She hated her. She hated her with her whole being. Something gleamed in Riko's eyes, her smirk growing.
"Guess I'll just hafta make you more angry." Riko said, grinning widely. She let go on the woman and raised her leg, smashing her against the ground. "Guess what that Taicho of mine and me did everyday." She said, smirking down at the woman.
Aina opened her eyes and gave the woman a hated glare while those from the eleventh division frowned in confusion. Kenpachi raised an eyebrow. She was either going to say how much they talked about beating the idiot or that he talked about how much he hated the small woman.
"We'd fuck each other senseless everyday." Riko said, smirking down at the woman. "Sometimes even five times a day."
Or neither.
Those from the eleventh division widened their eyes and gawked, all knowing that was a lie. What shocked them was that she lied so easily when she was always embarrassed about saying such things. Kaori's eyes were wide, not knowing whether to laugh or sigh. Kayo's face was bright red, covering her eyes.
Aina narrowed her eyes dangerously before she held her hand up, making Riko frown and raise an eyebrow.
"Hado thirty-one, Shakkaho!" Aina yelled, watching with satisfaction when it connected with the woman.
Riko snarled and stepped back, her eyes closed tightly and trying to wipe her face. Shit! She was an idiot for forgetting the little dumbass knew how to use kido. She opened her eyes slightly, everything bright and blurry, trying to find the small woman. She gritted her teeth. She couldn't see shit.
"Hado thirty-three, Sokatsui!" Aina yelled, holding her hand out to the woman, still looking angry.
Riko closed her eyes, waiting.
She could hear cheering, a few birds flying overhead, and... footsteps. Her features hardened, bending backwards. People watching widened their eyes when the kido went right past her, just a few inches from hitting her. Riko opened one eye slightly, everything slowly clearing up. She blinked several times, seeing the kido right above her, standing straight when it went by.
Her mouth was in a firm line and her eyes narrowed.
"You're gonna regret hitting me with that kido." Riko said, wiping the soot off her eyes with a snarl.
She held her hand up and grabbed the blade that was inches from her face, seeing the hatred burning Aina's eyes. Riko suddenly smirked, throwing the blade aside, kicking her leg out. Before Aina could double over in pain Riko punched the side of her cheek, watching with satisfaction when she went flying back.
She narrowed her eyes and smirked.
She glanced at her hand, the one she used to grab the blade, scoffing when she saw the bandages soaking in blood.
"Shit." Riko muttered, rolling her eyes.
She looked up, seeing Aina run towards her. The brown haired woman narrowed her eyes, swinging her sword out, almost smiling when she hit the black haired woman's arm. She swung her sword quickly, hoping to get the woman again.
Kaori frowned and narrowed her eyes.
Hold on a sec... She hit her? From how fast she was running and how slow she swung her sword, Riko could have easily dodged that. She sighed and rolled her eyes, realizing what her friend was doing. She wasn't attacking... because she was testing the small woman's strength.
That's what she disliked about Riko so much.
She always played with her opponents while the redhead and Kayo were actually serious in a battle. There were only so few times that she's actually seen the tall woman serious in a fight. She clenched her hands and sighed, seeing Riko skid back.
Sometimes she wished she was like Riko, in strength.
Sometimes she wished she could beat her ass and snap her out of it.
Riko jumped back when she saw the small woman swing her sword, her eyes narrowed and her mouth in a firm line. She moved to the sides when the woman swung her sword out of anger. She frowned. Fighting out of anger wasn't really a good thing. And she learned out the hard way.
Aina growled before smacking Riko's cheek.
Riko widened her eyes before grabbing her now red cheek, looking shocked. Did she just... slap her?
She frowned before pulling her arm back, seeing Aina widen her eyes, and quickly brought it forward. Only... it wasn't a slap. It was a punch. Aina stumbled back and held her cheek, her eyes wide with rage, her little body shaking out of anger. Riko grinned.
"You... You bitch!" Aina snapped, rushing forward and swinging her sword rapidly.
Riko dodged every single slash, a lazy smirk on her face. Jumping up, she landed on the small woman's shoulder and kicked backwards, hitting the back of the woman's head and making her stumble forward. Aina grabbed her head and turned, giving the other woman a dark glare.
That was it!
She held her sword out, seeing Riko frown and raise an eyebrow in confusion.
"Snap her neck," The black haired woman frowned and narrowed her eyes. "No hari Chokyo!"
Riko widened her eyes. She was releasing her zanpakuto? Shit! She jumped back, widening her eyes and wincing in pain, looking backwards. Blood dripped down on invisible lines, making her frown and narrow her eyes. What the hell...? She turned her head, looking serious, seeing Aina give her a smirk, her sword in the shape of a normal katana, except the handle was purple was covering her entire hand.
"..."Needles of Torture," eh?" Riko asked, raising an eyebrow with a frown. "Funny name."
"Says the person with a boy's name." Aina said, pursing her lips and giving the other woman a glare.
Riko's eye twitched.
"WHAT?" Riko roared, her eyes wide with rage and her hands clenched by her sides.
A boy's name? She curled her upper lip and started shaking in anger, lowering her head, the sun shadowing her face and making her look more demonic. Kaori and Kayo's eyes were wide, their jaws hanging open. They knew a couple things Riko really disliked... and that woman just said one of them.
Aina paused and blinked, seeing Riko stand straight, towering over her with a snarl on her face.
She widened her eyes and coughed out in pain, flying back when Riko suddenly punched her abdomen. Before she could even hit the ground, Riko hit her again. And again. And again. People widened their eyes, seeing the tall woman slam the small woman against the ground, standing over her with a low growl escaping her mouth.
She raised her arm to attack, only to widen her eyes when random small parts in her back spurted with blood. Her limbs trembled, her eyes snapping to the sides. Aina smirked and pushed her arm away, stepping back and dusting herself off.
People frowned when Riko stayed in the same position.
What the hell...?
Riko frowned and narrowed her eyes. She couldn't move. Why the hell couldn't she move? Her eyes snapped forward, seeing blood drip down on more invisible lines. She narrowed her eyes.
So, that was it...
She sighed and rolled her eyes, seeing a proud smirk on Aina's face, clenching her hands and pushing upwards. Whatever was binding her broke, narrowing her eyes when she heard a sound similar to glass breaking. Aina widened her eyes and gasped, holding out her sword. Riko grabbed her wrist and pulled her up, her eyes narrowed dangerously.
"Pretty cowardly sword you have." Riko said, a grin suddenly breaking out onto her face.
Aina blinked and widened her eyes when Riko smashed her forehead against hers. She stumbled backwards, her eyes still wide, feeling her head throb in pain. That hurt! When she glanced at the other person she was shocked to see a blank look on her face, not seeing a pained look.
Riko glanced at her arm, narrowing her eyes when she saw blood dripping out of small holes.
She smirked.
"So... that's your sword's ability." Riko muttered, looking up with a grin on her face. "Needles of Torture," means that your sword probably shoots something similar to needles. In short, it shoots something skinny and long, like needles that's too narrow to see, am I right?" She asked.
Aina's eyes were wide with shock before she narrowed them and held her sword out. Riko gritted her teeth and disappeared. The brown haired woman smirked, the handle of her sword glowing before it shot something out of the blade.
Riko widened her eyes and glanced back, staring at her leg, seeing blood drip down.
"Shit...!" Riko muttered, curling her upper lip and scoffing.
"No matter how much you run, my needles will catch you." Aina said, narrowing her eyes and giving a dark smile. "No matter how many times you break them, I'll send more. Just face it. You lost!" She yelled, giving the other woman a grin.
Riko frowned and clenched her hands, giving the smaller woman a dark glare. Aina smiled darkly and stood straight, remaining arrogant. Riko stared at her for a long time, lowering her head with her bangs covering her eyes, her jaw set. Kaori and Kayo stared, both their eyes slightly wide, nothing but silence around the large area, all watching intently.
"...You really are an idiot."
Aina paused and narrowed her eyes with a frown.
"What did you say?"
"...Can't you tell... when someone's holding back?" Riko asked, narrowing her eyes with a smirk.
Riko's reiatsu suddenly sky rocketed, making Aina widen her eyes, her knees almost buckling under her. People widened their eyes, all the members of the eleventh division jumping up and cheering loudly. Hitsugaya raised his eyebrows slightly in mild surprise, along with some of the Taichos.
Her reiatsu had to be that of an eighth or seventh seat.
Riko kicked her leg out, breaking out of her bindings, running quickly towards the woman with a large grin stretched across her face. Aina widened her eyes, holding out her sword, her eyes growing wider when she saw Riko's face inches from her. She jumped back, holding her hand out, muttering a chant.
Riko grabbed her wrist, slamming her knee against her abdomen, saliva flying out of Aina's mouth when coughed violently. Aina narrowed her eyes, her hand glowing a white color, hitting Riko's chest and sending her skidding back.
She jumped high in the air, holding her hand out.
Riko looking up with a wide grin on her face, bending her knees, wincing when Aina held her sword out, shooting more of her little needles and binding the black haired woman to where she was standing. The tall woman scoffed, glaring at the woman.
"Pain in the ass."
Aina held up her hand once more, her eyes narrowed dangerously.
"Sprinkled on the bones of the beast!" Kaori widened her eyes. A sixty level kido? "Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm." Riko snarled and started thrashing around, managing to get her left arm loose. "The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle! Hado sixty-three, Raikoho!" Aina yelled, yellow light glowing in her palm.
It blasted from her hand, heading straight for Riko.
The black haired woman widened her eyes and cursed, just as the kido hit. Dust and rubble flew into the air, some people cheering while others stayed silent.
Kayo gasped and covered her mouth, widening her eyes while Kaori leaned forward with wide eyes. No!
Aina landed on the ground with a smile on her face, narrowing her eyes. She stayed silent, watching with intense eyes, waiting for any movement. Seeing none she huffed and turned with a smile, holding her sword behind her. She felt happiness fill her, closing her eyes with a bright smile on her face.
"It's done." Aina said, almost skipping away.
"Hoh...? What's done?"
Aina stopped and widened her eyes, quickly turning around, staring at the smoke with horror. No, that couldn't be her. She was supposed to win. She widened her eyes, seeing some of the smoke part and seeing the bottom part of the black haired woman's face, seeing a smirk.
"That was a sixty level kido..." Aina muttered, her eyes impossibly wide. "She's supposed to be..."
"I'm supposed to be what?"
Riko's foot stepped out of the smoke, her other one following. Aina stared in horror when she saw Riko walking out of the smoke with her arms folded behind her back, looking unharmed. How can this be? No one can come unscathed from a sixty level kido. She swallowed hard, taking a hesitant step back.
"Sure, that was a really strong kido. But face it, kid." Riko said, looking up with a lazy smirk on her face. "You're not strong enough to use such a strong kido. If you had been using it's whole power, I should be unconscious right now. Well, it did..." She closed her eyes and smirked, moving her arm from behind her. "Do this."
Aina widened her eyes, seeing that Riko's entire left arm was burnt.
She blocked it...?
Riko grinned and raised an eyebrow.
"I was able to block it because it wasn't at its full power. I should be glad." Riko asked, shaking her left hand and wincing. "Shit. It hurts like a bitch, though."
Aina's eyes were wide. She blocked her kido, which meant... she was stronger than her. Her eyes grew wider, opening her mouth.
"I-I forfei-"
Two fingers were shoved into her mouth, widening her eyes when she saw Riko giving her a dark grin, the sun silhouetting her face. She gagged when she was smashed against the ground, staring at the black haired woman in horror, feeling tears sting her eyes.
"Aw, now where's that tough act?" Riko asked, giving a mocking sympathetic smile. "I'm not gonna let you finish those words. I want you to finish this fight. Now. If you don't, I'm gonna be hunting down your ass until you do. You did say you "love" Zaraki Taicho, didn't you? Then why don't you try and win to take him." She said, narrowing her eyes and giving a large smirk.
Aina trembled, feeling tears run down her face.
"Holy shit." Ikkaku breathed, his eyes wide with shock. "Who knew Hisako actually fought like this...? She actually made that little bitch cry."
Yumichika's eyes were also wide, along with all the other members of the eleventh division.
Riko took her fingers out of Aina's mouth, hearing her cough violently, stepping back and staring down at the small woman. Aina panted heavily, giving the taller woman a hated glare, standing up. She held out her sword and narrowed her eyes. She raised it above her head and yelled, swinging it down.
The black haired woman widened her eyes and grinned, seeing something glint off the sun, making its way towards her. She jumped in the air, jumping past the needles, pulling her arm back and bringing it forward. Aina held up her sword, making Riko frown when she punched the side of the blade. The brown haired woman skidded back, digging her feet into the concrete.
When she looked up, she narrowed her eyes, seeing Riko jump towards her. She looked past her and smirked, seeing the side of the fighting area. She held her hand up, a blue glow surrounding her hand. Just when Riko was in front of her, she hit her chest with everyone she had.
Riko widened her eyes, skidding back, trying to dig her feet into the concrete.
Shit!
How much damn energy did that little brat put into the last one? She turned her head slightly to look behind, a smirk spreading across her face. She held her right hand out, grabbing her sword, digging it further into the ground to stop herself. Once she came to a stop she ran towards Aina quickly.
The brown haired woman widened her eyes, taking a firm hold of her sword.
She widened her eyes, looking to her side, seeing blood spurt from her shoulder. Before she could get over her shock, Riko stabbed her sword into the concrete, turning around and punching Aina's back with everything she had. The brown haired woman widened her eyes, flying through the air.
Her eyes grew wider... when she flew out of the fighting area, hitting the ground hard. She stayed laying down, staring at the sky in shock. She sent her over the edge with one hit. Realization shined in her eyes. If she wanted to... that woman could have ended the fight when it started.
Riko walked towards the edge, swinging her sword to get the little bit of blood off, smirking down at the woman.
"That was a good fight." Riko said, her smirk growing. "Thanks."
Hisako Riko wins and advances to the next round!
The entire eleventh division started cheering loudly, all jumping up and pumping their fists in the air. Riko jumped and turned, her cheeks tinged red with embarrassment, scratching the side of her cheek. Aina pushed herself up into a stand, looking to the side and seeing some members of the fourth division running towards them. She turned her head and stared up and Riko.
"Uh... Hisako-sama."
Riko's eyebrows rose, sending a shocked look at the small woman. Did she just... call her Hisako-sama? She raised an eyebrow with a frown before jumping off the fighting area, sheathing her sword and facing the smaller woman.
"Yeah?" Riko asked, sending a suspicious stare at the small woman.
"Please... take good care of... Zaraki Taicho." Aina said, staring at the ground with furrowed eyebrows.
Riko gave the small woman a blank look.
"...Huh?"
"I-I-I hope you two get married and have lots of babies together!" Aina wailed, tears running down her face comically.
Riko widened her eyes, feeling her entire face burn red with embarrassment, the blush taking up most of her features. She froze and went rigid when Aina suddenly hugged her, still crying loudly. She swallowed, looking to the side with wide eyes, looking down at the woman. Kaori and Kayo's eyes were wide, both their jaws hanging open.
She was hugging her!
She was hugging Riko!
"Uh... there... there." Riko said, patting the woman's head while still looking very uncomfortable. "Now, uh... get away."
"Hisako-san, Saruka-san! We're here to heal your injuries." Someone said, giving the two a small bow.
Riko grunted and held out her left arm while the other members of the fourth division asked Aina to sit down, since she was more injured. Riko frowned, holding out her arm, seeing two men healing the burnt limb. She slowly turned her head, staring down at the small woman, seeing a saddened look on her face.
She sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Okay, you're done, Hisako-san." The man working on her arm said, giving her a nod.
Riko grunted and turned, walking away, already seeing two people fighting.
"RED-CHAN!"
Riko widened her eyes and looked up, feeling her breath being knocked out of her when Yachiru crashed into her, rolling back several meters with wide eyes. People around the area stopped cheering and stared at the scene with wide eyes. Yachiru's face appeared in Riko's vision.
"You did it, Red-chan!" Yachiru yelled, grinning widely.
"...Kusajishi fukutaicho." Riko muttered, a blank look on her face.
"Come on! Ken-chan wants to thank you!" Yachiru yelled, pulling the woman up to a stand with a grin, dragging her away.
Riko sighed before pausing. Wait. Thank her? How? She narrowed her eyes suspiciously, suddenly stopping. Yachiru was still running, in the same place, not even realizing they stopped. A blank look crossed Riko's face, lifting her arm, also lifting the small fukutaicho, staring at her.
"Thank me how?" Riko asked, raising an eyebrow with a frown.
"You know!" Yachiru yelled, giving the woman a wide grin. "Give you lots of kisses, marry you, and give me a baby sister or brother!"
Riko's eyes were wide, a blush spreading across her face. But in order for her to get a baby, and it was rare for someone not of noble blood to get one since people of nobility had a higher chance of getting one, she would have to... The blush turned another shade darker. She dropped the fukutaicho and turned.
"Goodbye."
"Red-chan! Come back!"
-:-
Kayo raised a hand to her chest and sighed out of relief, glad her friend was okay. She was sad to know that she got burnt. She pursed her lips and furrowed her eyebrows, watching as her friend got dragged by the fukutaicho. Poor Riko.
She turned her head, furrowing her eyebrows and tilting her head to the side when she noticed she was sitting right beside Hitsugaya. Where did the fukutaicho go? She turned her head, blinking with a small confused frown on her face when she saw the fukutaicho sitting on the other side of her.
"Oh, I like the air better over here." Matsumoto said, waving her hand with a bright smile on her face.
Kayo blinked and furrowed her eyebrows before hesitantly nodding, not quite sure what the fukutaicho meant. She blinked when she heard a snicker.
Ah, my naive little master.
Kayo blinked and frowned.
What did she do?
In another area, Kaori sighed and closed her eyes, feeling relief fill her when she saw Riko struggling to get away from the fukutaicho of the eleventh division. She was alright. She felt a smirk cross her face. The idiot. She didn't know what she would do if Riko lost.
Or worse, died.
Kaori suddenly paled and shook her head.
She relaxed her body, only to tense when she touched the Taicho, shooting him a glare before she moved away. Byakuya returned her glare, the air around the two cold. Renji shivered and moved away, rolling his eyes and sighing. Maybe he gave them a reason to fight each other instead of making them get along with each other. Kaori frowned. She hated him.
Oh, now that's not nice. Why don't you cut him some slack?
"I'm not going to cut him some slack!" Kaori snapped, turning her head to glare at the fukutaicho.
Renji frowned and looked to the sides uncomfortably.
"I... didn't say anything."
Kaori frowned and raised an eyebrow before shaking it off. Whoever said that was an idiot. She'd never cut the man some slack. She hated all nobles and would never be nice to them, even if they were family.
He's not your father.
Kaori paused. She didn't say what she was thinking outloud. She frowned and looked around the area, seeing people talk to each other and cheer. So who said that? She narrowed her eyes and turned towards the fight, biting her lip.
"...You don't always have to hit me every time you see me." Renji muttered, rubbing his cheek with a frown.
"You deserve it."
-:-
Riko stared at the Taicho nervously, her eyes wide with a blush covering most of her features. Oh, god. The fukutaicho managed to drag her upstairs and now she was standing next to her seat, having no idea what to do. Kenpachi gave her a smirk, watching with satisfaction when her blush went another shade darker.
"How was the fight?" Kenpachi asked, still smirking at the woman.
"O-Okay." Riko said, looking to the side with a frown, the words of both the fukutaicho and the kid bothering her. "Uh... do you think the kid will leave you alone now-"
"No."
Riko gave the man a blank stare. That was an immediate response. Kenpachi was frowning. Even though they all heard that little crazy woman was going to "give" Riko to him, he didn't trust her words. A stalker just doesn't give up like that. He looked to the side when he saw the woman about to sit down.
He grabbed her wrist, making her widen her eyes, and pulled her down to sit on his lap.
Riko frowned.
"...Let me down."
"No."
"I mean it."
"No."
"Let go of me."
"Nah."
"I mean it...!"
"Nope."
"Let. Me. Down!"
"Nah."
A loud smack came from the area.
Riko was sitting in her chair with her arms crossed over her chest and a big frown on her face. Ikkaku and Yumichika covered their mouths, their eyes wide with tears gathering at the sides, trying to contain their laughter in. Yachiru blinked and tilted her head.
Kenpachi sat in his chair with a frown on his face, his right cheek having a red hand print on it.
"Bitch."
"Bastard."
She slapped him.
