Aaaaand I'm back! Sorry for the delay!
So. Yes. This is some lovely vintage Bleach, circa the rescue arc and the execution fiasco. Because it occurs to me that I never wrote a drabble relating to this part of Bleach.
Here's some familial angst! Also, it's from Byakushi's perspective, which I rarely do. Title is taken from the song "We Are" by Ana. (SHAMELESS PLUG TIME) I made a Bleach AMV to this song a few years ago, feel free to check it out. It's pretty terrible...:D
Reviews are great, constructive criticism is better!

Title: No Answers For No Questions Asked
Prompt 052: Fire
He will not disobey his parents.
Not again.
Once was enough, and it got him nowhere, gave him nothing.
Five years of something that was gone too soon and will never be his again.
So he says goodbye to Hisana's picture.
He wonders how his wife would feel if she knew he was about to attend Rukia's execution.
He fights Renji.
Who is doing the right thing.
He arrives at Sokyoku Hill.
And he will not look at Rukia.
The sky is alight with flames, the captains like spectators at a gruesome show.
His heart seizes in his chest.
He may not be doing the killing.
But he is doing nothing to stop it, and that makes him as good as her executioner.
Like it? Love it? Hate it? Just happy that I updated finally? Then leave me a lovely little review, please!
Next chapter...I shall mosey on to the time-skip and the Thousand-Year Blood War stuff, as it is about time, ne? Angsty, angsty, angsty-ness awaits you readers. :)
Until next time!
