CH. 34
The rain came down hard on Seinaru and the hollow known as Fuzen as they both stared at each other. Seinaru had a look of determination on his face. But his eyes showed a dark pain to them. He had a dark scowl on his face that showed his true thoughts. Seinaru wanted to kill this hollow with everything he has. His back was facing his friends at the moment.
"Seinaru, what do you mean this fight got beyond personal?" Tiana asked. For a second, she got a glimpse of a side of Seinaru that she's never seen before. Seinaru didn't respond to Tiana. He remained silent. "Seinaru, look at me in the eye right now." Seinaru still didn't do what he was told.
"Tiana, get out of here now. Take Matt and Mana and just leave. I don't want any of you here during this fight. That's final." said Seinaru with his back still turned to Tiana, Matt, and Mana. This set Tiana off.
"Seinaru, you will tell me what is going on and that is final." Tiana said that last sentence as a serious demand. "I'm not leaving until you tell me what the hell you're thinking." Seinaru sighed after that. But he slowly turned his head and looked at Tiana straight in the eye. When that happened, Tiana's eyes went wide with shock. She could not believe what she just say in those brown and green eyes Seinaru has. This was something that she has never seen from Seinaru before. It seriously shocked her. "Is it really that serious?" Tiana said that question in a serious tone. Seinaru responded by facing the hollow once again.
"Tiana, just go. Now!" Tiana was slow to respond but finally nodded yes.
"Matt, Mana, you heard him, we must leave." Matt gave a look to Tiana that seriously questioned her. "This is Seinaru's battle, we can't interfere."
"You can't be serious. Are you?" Matt questioned. Tiana was silent. "I can't leave Seinaru by himself."
"Matt you will do as Tiana says." Seinaru shouted. "I don't want you here, while I fight this ugly mutt." Matt grunted in anger but eventually walked down a pair of stairs slowly. Mana stayed where she was and had a terrified look on her face.
"Those eyes Seinaru has. They didn't look like that earlier. Before he had eyes of warmth and comfort. Eyes of reliability and trust. But now they're full of pain, sadness, hate,… revenge." Mana then remembered those emotions when she was alive. "Same as me,… when my dad was killed by this monster."
"You felt it to Mana?" Tiana asked without looking at Mana. Mana didn't know how to respond. "I can tell you know exactly what Seinaru is feeling right now. So you might connect with him emotionally. But we shouldn't worry about that. We'll only get in Seinaru's way. Seinaru told me to get you out of here. And that's what I intend to do." Tiana slowly walked away after that. Mana followed Tiana but gave one last glance at Seinaru with a worried look.
"Seinaru, don't die. Matt and Tiana are worried about you. I don't think I can look at their faces if you die here. You're needed a lot more than you think." Mana looked away and off she went following Tiana.
A crack of thunder echoed across the night sky during the storm. Rain was pouring down hard and black storm clouds covered the entire sky making it darker than before. Seinaru surprisingly could see quite well. But it still looked dark to his eye sight. The inky black night didn't bother the hollow a bit.
"Now we can settle our battle with no one in our way." said Seinaru. He stared down at the hollow with eyes of determination and anger. "It's better if we fight this way alone anyway. I can't believe that it's you out of all the people out there in this world. It's about time I settle an old score with you."
"I admire your enthusiasm." Fuzen said with a wicked grin on his face. "But tell me, why do you have a bone to pick with me?"
"…" Seinaru stayed quiet at first. But he eventually chuckled with a grin before responding. "You don't recognize me do you?" Fuzen gave Seinaru a confused look. This didn't surprise Seinaru. "Guess I should've expected this. It's been 8 years already. Man does time pass by quick." Fuzen meanwhile was trying to figure Seinaru out on what he was thinking.
"Eight years ago? That's a long time." Fuzen said in his head. "Have I met this kid when I was alive?" Seinaru then charged at Fuzen with a swing of his sword that had malice hidden in it. Fuzen managed to block the attack with his arm at the last second. Seinaru glared at Fuzen and released more pressure on his sword which dug in Fuzen's arm slightly. This shocked Fuzen and before Seinaru could go any deeper, he swung his arm throwing Seinaru out of the way. Seinaru easily stopped himself while skidding on the ground.
"Talking is useless during our fight." Seinaru shouted. "from here on out, the talking will come from our attacks." He then sprung himself at Fuzen once again with his sword ready for striking. Fuzen however reacted quickly and used his right wing to block the attack. He used his left wing to strike Seinaru while he was busy. Seinaru pushed the right wing away and managed to block the left wing in the nick of time. Fuzen had a wicked grin on his face after that.
"You're right, talking is useless during our fight. It looks like you're finally over with your spasm attacks. So now I can fight you with your true nature. So come at me."
"I'll be glad to." Seinaru shouted as a battle cry. He then quickly moved away from the wing and attacked Fuzen once again. Fuzen evaded the sword this time and charged crimson energy in his right palm. Seinaru brought his Zanpakuto in front of his body just before the cero blast could be released. He was shoved back hard but managed to stand his ground standing up. He was shoved all the way to the edge of the building before stopping. Fuzen then used his wings to launch himself fast while just a foot above the ground. Seinaru jumped upward and landed on Fuzen's shoulder and immediately jumped off as quickly as he landed. He landed on the middle of the roof and quickly turned around to only be greeted by Fuzen yet again. The wolf like hollow used his right clawed hand to slash Seinaru but his target used his Zanpakuto to shove the hand off to the side and brought a swift kick to Fuzen's face. It only managed to shift his path off to the right and go into the open air. The kick didn't do any real damage. Fuzen howled like a menos grande in a fit of rage and charged another cero. This time, he was determined not to miss. He aimed it at Seinaru and launched the crimson blast. It exploded on impact on the roof of the building. Seinaru couldn't react fast enough and while he was evading the attack, his arm was caught in the explosion and resulted in burning his right arm. His right shihakusho sleeve was burned off as well. He grunted in pain from the burn.
The cero attack almost destroyed the entire roof so the battle arena was nearly gone. But that didn't matter to Seinaru at the moment. He was more worried about the fact that he was blasted off of the building and into the open air. Seinaru began to panic. He tried to stop himself from falling to the ground by driving his Zanpakuto into the building wall. Due to the building being incomplete in certain areas, Seinaru had difficulty in staying in place. He eventually stopped and he was barely hanging on to his Zanpakuto in the air.
"You can't get away from me." Seinaru saw Fuzen swooping down at Seinaru above like a falcon. Seinaru reacted quickly and launched himself into the building. Breaking a window in the process. The glass gave Seinaru several scratches across both of his arms. It hurt the most on Seinaru's burnt right arm. But he knew he had to ignore the pain and move on. He looked behind himself through the window he went through and saw that Fuzen was nowhere in sight.
"Where the hell is he?" Seinaru asked in his mind. "He better come out soon." Seinaru then heard a loud crash coming from the other side of the building. He wasted no time into rushing to the source of the noise. He had to run around the building but eventually came face to face with fuzen in the extremely large hall ways. Seinaru made the first move and aimed for his head. Fuzen quickly evaded the attack and shot his right wing at Seinaru. Seinaru jumped over the wing and then stabbed his Zanpakuto into the ground through Fuzen's wing trapping him in place. This set Fuzen off as he tried to get loose.
"(Rgh) You'll pay for that you little brat." Fuzen snarled.
"Are you serious about this?" Seinaru asked by shouting right at his face. "Do seriously don't recognize me after all this time?" Fuzen gave Seinaru a confused look.
"What the hell are you babbling on about? I've never met you in my life." Seinaru just simply smirked before responding.
"Wrong answer." Seinaru released his Zanpakuto from the ground also freeing Fuzen in the process. Before fuzen could escape, Seinaru managed to drive a large fist right at his mouth. This only sent Fuzen a couple steps back as a result. But this didn't stop Seinaru from driving a kick to Fuzen's face. Fuzen however reacted quick to this and grabbed Seinaru's leg his his hand. He threw Seinaru through 3 walls in the building. Seinaru was greeted by a world of hurt from that. He landed on the ground on his face when he was done being in the air. He dropped his Zanpakuto and went to retrieve it as soon as he got back up. He easily ignored the pain while running back to the fight. Fuzen however had other plans.
"Your sword his mine again." And he was right, in Fuzen's right hand was Seinaru's Zanpakuto back in his filthy hands. He swung the sword at Seinaru who easily dodged the attack. While fighting, Seinaru saw that he put a large hole through Fuzen's right wing from earlier. He wondered if that will have any actual effect on him. But he was mostly focused on evading attacks from Fuzen.
After Fuzen finally does a vertical swing, it lands on the ground and it sticks. Seinaru saw this opportunity to charge at Fuzen and kick him in the face. Fuzen hardened his skin slightly before the kick made contact so it didn't do much. He only moved back a few steps. But he let go of the Zanpakuto and that's all Seinaru wanted. Seinaru used Fuzen's torso as a launching pad to get to his Zanpakuto faster. He caught it in midair and when he landed on his feet, he charged at Fuzen once again. He shoved the tip of his sword forward aiming straight for Fuzen's face. Fuzen grabbed Seinaru's sword with his right hand trying to stop Seinaru's attack. He succeeded in stopping the sword when the tip of it was just about to touch his face.
"This brat is strong even for a soul reaper I'll give him that. But why does he claim to know me? I don't recognize anything about him." Fuzen then looked at Seinaru's venom filled eyes glaring at him and this time, it was Fuzen's turn to have the sudden image flash in his mind. He quickly tossed Seinaru off to the side in a hurry wanting those eyes to get out of his sight. Fuzen had a confused look on his face while staring at Seinaru. "Those eyes, I've seen those brown and green eyes before. I've seen those on a little kid before."
"Are you finally starting to remember me Fuzen Hidoukai?" Fuzen left his trail of thoughts and looked back at Seinaru. "Based on the look on your face I say I'm finally starting to get to your thick mutt skull of yours." Seinaru went for the kill on Fuzen once again but Fuzen blocked the attack at the last second once again. However, since Fuzen was distracted from his earlier vision, he easily lost his balance and he was shoved back by Seinaru. They crashed out through the building with Seinaru on top and Fuzen on bottom. They were falling down to the ground.
Seinaru had Fuzen right where he wanted him to be. Fuzen couldn't move himself when he looked at Seinaru's eyes once again. It prevented him from moving for some unknown reason to him.
"Should I give you a little hint?" Seinaru asked while they were falling. Fuzen didn't reply at all. Seinaru then moved his head closer to Fuzen's right ear and whispered in there in a rage filled tone, "Kurosaki." Fuzen's eyes went wide when he heard that name.
"No, you can't be…" Seinaru smirked.
"Bingo."
Right after that, the two fighters crashed landed on the ground. A large thud echoed throughout the night sky and it could be felt on the ground. It made a large dirt cloud rise up. The dirt quickly went down and Fuzen shoved Seinaru off of himself. Seinaru easily got his ground back and glared at Fuzen. Fuzen brushed the dirt that was on his legs and looked back at his opponent.
"I don't believe you." Seinaru was surprised to hear that. "You claim to have known me 8 years ago but I don't recognize anything about you. You give off an aura of bravery. One that I've never seen before. I always remember my victims and their faces. But I don't remember a single thing about you. If you claim to have known me, then prove it here and now. I won't take no for an answer." Before Seinaru could answer, he heard some voices behind him. He knew it was. And out came from the trees behind him were Matt, Mana, and Tiana.
"Seinaru, how're you holding up here?" Matt asked. He was still mad at Seinaru for wanting to face Fuzen alone but he also knew that he had to respect his wishes.
"…" Seinaru didn't respond back to Matt.
"Seinaru, what are you thinking right now?" Tiana asked in a serious and concerned tone.
"You really want proof Fuzen?" Seinaru asked in a dark tone. "I'll show you proof. The proof of when you hurt me and my family." Seinaru stabbed his Zanpakuto into the ground and used his left hand and to remove part of his shihakusho covering his right shoulder. "When I first heard your name, this scar you gave me started to hurt like hell. I never imagined that I would fight against you." While he was talking, he removed the part of his shihakusho that was covering his right shoulder revealing something that made Fuzen's eyes go wide. "Remember this Fuzen? You gave this to me 8 years ago so of course you will now remember who I am. You hurt much more than you can possibly imagine that night. You hurt the most important people in my life. YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGIVEN YOU UGLY BASTARD!"
On Seinaru's right shoulder was a sword wound scar going across his shoulder vertically. It was a medium sized wide scar that was slightly crooked and had some small spikes sticking out of it. Some spikes were slightly bigger than others. The longest one was 3 centimeters long and the shortest was 1 centimeter. Tiana had wide eyes when she saw that scar on shoulder. She has never seen that from Seinaru at all. And she knew she probably wasn't supposed to see it in the first place.
"Seinaru you…" Tiana didn't know what to say.
"Tiana, I told you to get as far away as possible from this fight." Seinaru said calmly to Tiana without looking back. "This does not concern you." Tiana gritted her teeth in anger as a response. But she knew that she would've done the same thing if she was wanting revenge on someone. Seinaru just glared at Fuzen once again.
"Now I remember you." Fuzen said with a wicked grin on his face. He laughed evilly for the next few minutes after figuring out his side of the mess. Mana flinched after hearing that wicked laugh. She remembered that same laugh after her father was killed by Fuzen's hands. "HAHAHAHA, Oh I can't believe that it's the same you after all this time. I can't believe I forgot a coward like you. The look on your cowardly face was priceless. And your scream was a lullaby to my ears. Your parents were no different back then." Seinaru tightened his grip on his Zanpakuto in anger after hearing that. It took all of his might to stay put. Mana, Tiana, and even Matt all had wide eyes when they heard Fuzen say those last couple sentences. "Tell me, how are those idiot parents of yours doing now? They seriously screwed up on that night. They were my favorite victims next to you of course. I can't believe that you're seriously related to them. They did a lousy job of-" Then all of a sudden, Seinaru warped right in front of Fuzen. He had malice in his eyes that burned like flames from hell. Fuzen did not see this coming by a long shot. Before he could move even an inch, Seinaru stabbed his sword on the ground, used it as a stand so he could reach Fuzen's head, grabbed the sides of Fuzen's neck with his feet, and finally using newfound strength Seinaru dragged Fuzen's head straight to the ground with as much brute force that he had.
*BOOM*
Since Fuzen's head was dragged down, his while body followed the process. He was shoved to the ground on his head. And pain shot hard on Fuzen's entire head. Seinaru leaped back to his Zanpakuto with just one jump backwards.
"Do not test me." Seinaru said in a serious tone that sounded similar to a threat while picking up his sword again. Fuzen got up with groans of pain in his voice. He cracked his neck before glaring back at Seinaru.
"You will die Seinaru Kurosaki. I'm going to give you so much pain that you'll be begging for me to kill you. I'm going to enjoy this."
"No need for words then. I speak with this from here on out." And then, Seinaru and Fuzen stared at each other down with their own glares. Then, they both took the first step at the same time and attacked at the same time. They intercepted with each other and stayed with their blades in contact for several seconds before backing up and attacking once again. They were both fighting to the death and one of them, was not going to see the light of the next morning's sun. After a few more attacks, they eventually took the fight deeper in the forest of trees that was nearby. They quickly became invisible to Matt, Mana, and Tiana who were still watching the fight.
"Matt." Tiana called out. "Tell me, do you know what the hell happened to Seinaru?" Matt was silent at first. "You're his best friend so you must know something. I know it." Matt knew that he had to tell the truth no matter what.
"The truth is Tiana,… I don't know." Tiana however, did not accept that answer.
"Don't you dare lie to me." Tiana said in an angered tone. "You've known him for a long time. You know exactly what's going on."
"… I'm serious." was all Matt could say.
"I'm sorry Matt but I'm with Tiana on this. Even I know that something is up. So please tell us." said Mana. Matt simply sighed. "Why are you keeping this from us when we know?"
"Truth is I'm just as annoyed as you are." Matt scratched the side of his head while sighing again. "I don't know what's going on but, that doesn't mean I know nothing."
"What do you know?" Tiana asked.
"Well, according to that hollow he said that Seinaru claims to have met him 8 years ago. And then Seinaru said that he was hurt by the hollow once before. The closest thing I can relate to is the day that Seinaru was in the hospital from a serious wound that almost killed him due to blood loss which was also 8 years ago." Tiana and Mana were silent with shock. "That time,… He didn't show up at school for nearly 2 weeks. He was hurt that bad. Since I was little, I never really paid attention to all of the details that were around me. All I heard that Seinaru was injured. When he finally came back, Seinaru had large bandages around his right shoulder. Some of them were sticking out of his shirt at the neck area. But what really shook me up were those eyes of his. They scared me when I saw them. I've never seen eyes like those coming from him in the first place. It took a lot of bravery to ask him what was going on. But I instantly regretted asking."
"He never told you?" Mana asked.
"He never told anyone about what truly happened at that time." Matt said sadly. "He told me everything about him. Except for what truly happened on that night 8 years ago."
"Did I seriously pry him like that earlier at a private matter?" Tiana questioned in her mind. She felt guilty after that thought. Matt started to feel down after that explanation.
"He entered some kind of depression after the first day coming back. He hardly came back to school for another week. But when he finally came back with a grin on his face, I was so relieved to have him back. It was a different grin but it still gave off his same Seinaru self. He may have changed differently but I'm just glad that he changed in a good twist. I swore never to ask him about that night ever again. Just thinking of that pained face is enough for me to stop for good." Matt said in his mind sadly. A certain memory came to his head after that.
Flashback: 8 years ago
"Seinaru!" a nine year old Matt called out to his best friend Seinaru who came back to school after 8 days of being absent. "Where've you been? I was really worried. You've gone for so long with no explanation. What happened to you?" A nine year old Seinaru had a blank look on his face and large bandages could easily be seen at his neck. His hair was short back then and it was slightly spiky. His shirt covered the rest of his bandages with the sleeves going all the way to the elbow.
"Leave me alone Matt." Seinaru said in a monotone voice. He didn't look at Matt at all. "I don't wanna talk about it." Seinaru then began to walk away. But the slightly taller 9 year old Matt grabbed his shoulder before he could take the first step. "I said leave me alone." Seinaru shouted while trying to struggle free.
"Not until you tell me why you were gone. Why were you in the hospital? I'm your friend. I worry about you. What's going on?" Right before Seinaru answered, he finally looked at Matt square in the eyes. Matt became paralyzed with fear and became scared at his own friend.
"I said," Seinaru said angerly before he clenched a fist. "LEAVE ME ALONE!" And then, Seinaru punched Matt at the chest and knocked him on his back. When this happened, Seinaru froze. He looked at his hand that he punched Matt with and stared wide eyed at it with fear in his eyes. His legs were shaking with shock on what he just did. He slowly stepped back a couple steps.
"Seinaru don't-" before Matt could finish, Seinaru quickly ran away as fast as he could. He wanted to run away as far as possible from Matt. "Seinaru, WAIT!" Matt yelled trying to stop Seinaru. Seinaru refused to stop running from Matt. He couldn't look at his closest friend in the eye after what he just did.
"Matt, I'm so sorry." Seinaru said in his mind while running away with fear. Matt tried to chase after him but Seinaru was too fast for him and lost him. He looked and looked for the next hour looking for Seinaru but he had no luck. Then, a lone tear fell down his face. He slammed his fist on the ground while falling to one knee and screaming.
"DAAAAAMIIIIIIT!" Matt then screamed to the sky. "AAAAAAAAAAAAH!"
Flashback End
"My friendship with Seinaru almost ended because of that. What was I thinking?" Matt said in his mind. He didn't notice a hand waving in front of him.
"Matt, you still there?" Tiana asked trying to get Matt's attention back to her. Matt quickly snapped back to reality after that.
"Sorry about that. Just had something on my mind is all."
"About Seinaru?" Mana asked. Matt didn't respond. He only looked off at where Seinaru and Fuzen went off to.
"Enough about Seinaru." Matt said calmly. "Whatever he's got on his mind right now is his business. It's no use trying to figure out what exactly happened that night 8 years ago. He even won't tell me. And he never plans on telling anyone. The only thing we can do is hope for the best. We have to believe that Seinaru will win."
"Alright then." said Tiana. "Except I won't be here believing Seinaru will win." Matt and Mana both gave Tiana a confused, angered look. "I'll be here knowing that Seinaru will win this battle. I know Seinaru will win. He won't lose against the likes of Fuzen. Even if it was someone else, he would still win the same fight."
"…Yeah, you're right." Matt said with a grin on his face. He gave a thumbs up sign to Tiana as well. Mana was smiling as well agreeing.
"Seinaru," Mana began in her mind. "You will win. Even I know it. We all know we will win. Tiana showed us that." She then looked at Tiana with a smile on her face. "Tiana, thank you for showing me that everything will turn out for the best. You really are a good friend to Seinaru. And a good friend of mine."
Seinaru
*BOOM*
Seinaru just shoved Fuzen back into a tall tree that was wider than him and it shook the huge tree and leaving a dent on the tree. Fuzen lashed out with a counter attack by using his left hand to dig Seinaru's Zanpakuto into the ground and holding it down in place. He used his right hand to hold his palm in front of Seinaru and charge up a cero. Seinaru had wide eyes as he saw the charging cero. He had no other choice than to regretfully let go of his Zanpakuto again for the umpteenth time and jump over the cero. Due to the cero being wide in all directions, Seinaru just barely dodged the attack while in the air.
"Are all cero attacks this large?" Seinaru asked in his mind. "This is insane." When Seinaru landed on the ground, he immediately sprinted to his Zanpakuto. Fuzen was just about grab the sword when Seinaru at the last second managed to shove Fuzen's hand out of the way by ramming into it. He turned back and grabbed his Zanpakuto with ease. He then charged back at Fuzen as if it was on instinct. Seinaru launched several more attacks at Fuzen with lightning speed. But Fuzen blocked them all with his wings. But this didn't stop Seinaru from continuing on the barrage of attacks. He was in control now and he was gonna keep it that way.
"I'll never forgive you." Seinaru said in his mind while endlessy attacking. "I'll never forgive you Fuzen Hidoukai. You hurt more than you can possibly imagine on that night. I'll never forget what you have done." Seinaru then glared at Fuzen with Malice filled eyes as he then shouted in his mind,
"I will defeat you. YOU WILL PAY FUZEN HIDOUKAI!"
Flashback: 8 years ago- Seinaru
A nine year old Seinaru was sitting in a chair in his house's living room reading a manga book just hanging out. He was bored with nothing really to do today. His mother was making dinner in the kitchen, his father was taking a nap in the living room couch with was near Seinaru. And Rukia and Jinsuke were watching TV together. It was a pretty calm afternoon almost evening that day. Seinaru scratched his short slightly spiky hair and said to his mother,
"He Mom, is dinner ready yet? I'm really hungry."
"It'll be done in a minute sweetie." Orihime said with a smile. "Just need to wait a little longer." She then went back to cooking her family's meal. Seinaru then heard slight squeaking coming from behind him. He turned his head and saw that Rukia and Jinsuke were drawing a moustache and glasses on Ichigo's sleeping face with a black marker.
"Is that marker permanent?" Seinaru asked with curiosity. "Cuz will be angry if it is."
"Don't worry, we know it's washable. We tried it on my arm and it washes right off." Rukia said with a grin on her face.
"Please don't say anything about this until Dad sees it." Jinsuke pleaded.
"Alright, do what you want. It'll be funny anyway." He then looked back at his manga book. "I saw nothing." After a few more minutes went by, Orihime called out to his family.
"Dinner is ready everyone. Come and get it." Seinaru put a bookmark in his book and set it on the coffee table before walking to the dinner ready. He looked at the food and had a huge grin on his face.
"YES, dinner is finally ready." Seinaru had a hungry look on his face. "I'm gonna eat it all."
"Well I'm glad you're eager to eat. But be sure to save some for everyone else." Orihime said as a joke.
"Heh, oh ok." Seinaru said with fake sadness playing along. Orihime knew what Seinaru was doing. She then called to her husband.
"Ichigo, I'm done making dinner. Bring Rukia and Jinsuke with as well. I'm sure they're hungry." Orihime heard groaning from the living room and knew that Ichigo was just waking up. She heard footsteps coming and saw Rukia, Jinsuke, and Ichigo walk in. When she saw Ichigo's face, she started to laugh but tried to hold it in. She did a good job with holding it in, but Ichigo noticed.
"What's funny?" Ichigo asked. On his face was a poorly drawn moustache and pair of glasses on his face.
"Oh nothing." Orihime said with a sing song tone. Ichigo then sat down at the dinner table. Orihime then went to Rukia and Jinsuke and said whispered with a smile on her face, "Is that marker washable?"
"Yes." They said simultaneously with grins on their faces.
"Don't let this become a habit ok?" The two twins nodded yes. They all then sat and ate. Everyone eating were surprised that Ichigo hasn't noticed the drawings on his face. But he did ask a couple times what was so funny to Jinsuke and Rukia. They surprisingly came up with a good answer when asked. Once dinner was finished, Orihime finally said,
"Hey Ichigo?" Her husband gave his attention to her. "Rukia and Jinsuke were laughing during the whole dinner because they drew on your face." Ichgio quickly went to a mirror near the front door and saw the 'master piece' drawn on his face. He laughed when he saw it. He then walked back to the dinner table. And gave off a smile to his kids who drew on his face.
"Very hilarious you two." said Ichigo. "I can tell that this stuff is washable so I won't do anything. Just don't let this become a habit on other people. I'm letting it slide since I'm your Dad."
"Sorry, we were bored." said Jinsuke.
"I'm gonna go wash this stuff off of my face. I'll be right back." Ichigo then went to the bathroom that was near the front door.
"I didn't think Dad wouldn't realize what's going." said Seinaru.
"Well no one knows everything Seinaru." said Orihime. "Sometimes we need someone to tell us on what's going on. The drawings on your father's face are a good example. He didn't know about them until I told him about them."
"I see now." said Seinaru. He then yawned. "I'm thinking of going to bed early tonight. I'm really tired."
"Sure, that's fine." said Orihime with a smile. Ichigo then came into the room with the marker completely gone from his face.
"Hey everyone, why don't we play hide and seek for a bit?" Ichigo asked out of the blue. Rukia and Jinsuke immediately said yes with no second thought.
"Sure, I guess so." Seinaru said in a tired tone.
"That sounds like fun." said Orihime. Ichigo had a grin on his face showing he was ready. "I'll start counting first."
"No I'll go first." said Ichigo. "I feel like going first this time." He then went to the living room wall. "Is everyone ready? The rules will be a little different this time."
"What do you mean?" Seinaru asked.
"This time, you, Rukia and Jinsuke all must hide in the same hiding spot no matter what. Orihime, you're free to go out on your own. Outside is included in this game. Do you all understand?" They all nodded yes. "Alright then, I'm gonna start counting. When I get to 30, you better be ready. 1,...2…3…"
Seinaru, Rukia, and Jinsuke all headed straight for a good hiding spot to hide in. It was hard to find a good place where they could all be in. But eventually they settled in a large hiding spot where anyone would trouble finding.
"27,…28,…29,…30. Ready or not, here I come." He then turned around and was surprised to see Orihime still standing behind her. "Why haven't you gone to hide?" Ichigo's voice was just slightly shaky at the moment. It was also a little serious.
"Is everything alright?" Orihime asked in a serious tone. Ichigo also saw that Orihime had a serious look on her face.
"I'm just surprised that you haven't hid yourself."
"Tell me the truth. You could fool the kids but I know when something's wrong. So please tell the truth."
"…" Ichigo couldn't say anything at first. He then put his hands and together and said, "Orihime please go and hide. I don't want you here. I don't want you involved."
"Involved with what? I'm not leaving here till you tell me what's going on." Before Ichigo could speak, slight clicking could be heard at the front door. Ichigo quickly tensed up when he heard those few clicks.
"Orihime, stand back. Stay out of sight until I say you can come out." Orihime took a few steps back but she wanted to see her husband alive and well so she made it to where Ichigo was visible in her field of vision. Ichigo slowly went to the door while the clicking was going on. And then, the clicking stopped. Nothing happened for the next moment or two. Time seemed to have gone on forever. Ichigo and Orihime both waited for something to happen. And then,
*WHAM*
Ichigo and Orihime both jumped when the front door was kicked wide open by a complete stranger. The man was very tall with a height of 6'3. He had short messy hair, brown eyes, thick facial hair, dirty face, hands, and clothes, and dark circles around his eyes. He looked around his mid-thirties. Ichigo had a serious look on his face as he saw him barge through the door. Orihime started to become scared when she saw him.
"May I help you?" Ichigo tried asking as calmly as he could. "I don't know if you realize this but this is a home." The mysterious man had a wicked grin on his face as he pulled out a gun. The gun he pulled out was a pistol. He pointed it at Ichigo.
"Yeah, you can help me by giving up all of your money and valuables to me."
"…And If I refuse?" Ichigo asked even though he knew the answer. The man snickered before responding.
"Then I take your life along with the women who's hiding behind you." Ichigo had wide eyes when he heard that. "That's right. Women, come out here and hold your hands up." Orihime quietly did what she was told. She was scared but she tried to be brave.
"Leave her out of this. She isn't involved." Ichigo demanded.
"And don't think about calling the cops. Because if you do, I'm taking you both down with me." Ichigo and Orihime were both silent. "Now sit down on that couch and don't a word." Ichigo knew that he could easily knock this guy out but he had a gun and he does not want to risk anyone part of his family getting hurt.
"Fine, we'll do what we're told. But in return, you're not allowed to inflict a scratch on anyone got it? You can't hurt anyone while you're here in this house. Promise?"
"Whatever." Replied the stranger with the gun. "Just give me what I want. And stay on that couch."
Ichigo and Orihime both sat down on the couch next to each other. Ichigo glared at the man with the gun while he was going through everything. Orihime was shaking with fear in her eyes. She was really scared and she wanted it to end Her hands were holding onto the couch as tight as they possible could. She then felt a warm hand cover her left hand that was shivering like crazy. She stopped shaking when she felt the hand grab hers.
"I'm sorry Orihime. Just hang on for a little while. I truly didn't want you here. I know you're scared but you'll be fine while I'm here. I promise." Ichigo whispered to Orihime trying to calm her down as best as he could. It surprisingly worked quite well. Orihime gripped Ichigo's warm hand as she then whispered back,
"Thank you, Ichigo. Thank you for trying to protect our family. The kids are safe from him while they're hiding." Orihime had a small smile on her face but she was still really scared.
Meanwhile,
"What are Mom and Dad taking so long for?" Seinaru asked with an impatient look on his face. He looked at the watch that he had on to see the time. "Geez, they've been gone for a half hour. And they say I'm slow. I know this is a good hiding spot but it's not that good." He looked behind him to see Rukia and Jinsuke fast asleep on an old pillow in the place they were hiding in. "Well at least those two are fine." Seinaru then had enough. "I'm getting out of here. This is taking too long." Seinaru was just about to open the door of the hiding place he was in but he stopped when he heard voices. "Who's that? It sounds like Mom and Dad. Is there someone else with them?"
"Hey you two, quit glaring. Or are you really looking forward to death." This made Seinaru jump when he heard that voice.
"Calm down. Just take what you want and leave. That's all I ask for." This time, Seinaru heard Ichigo talk.
"Dad, is that you? What did that other voice mean by death? Is he going to kill you?"
"Hey, women! Come up here and show me all of the money you've got on your purse. I don't have all day." Orihime was just getting up when Ichigo stopped her.
"Don't move. I'll go and do it." Ichigo said to his wife. Orihime slowly sat back down. Ichigo stood up at his full height and went on. But the gunman stopped him by pointing the gun at his belly.
"I ordered the women to get the money not you. So sit back down." The gunman shouted in a pissed off tone.
"Sir, please calm down. I'm just merely taking her place. You still get the money either way. You also have a lot of our stuff so it shouldn't matter too much." The gunman didn't listen.
"I gave you an order and I expect you to follow my orders. Do I make myself clear?"
"I said to please calm down. It doesn't matter who gets the money. She shouldn't be involved in our affair."
Seinaru could not believe what he was hearing. The mystery man was threatening his own parents. He was hesitant but he slowly opened the door in front of him by a crack. He nearly gasped with what he saw. He saw his mother scared stiff on the couch and his father in front of a man he's never seen before pointing a gun at Ichigo. Seinaru was only 9 years old but he knows a gun when he sees one.
"Mom,… Dad?" Seinaru whispered with fear in his tone. He started to become very afraid of what might happen. "Don't die."
"Listen you dumbass, I'm not playing around. You will sit back down or you will regret it. Stop acting like you're deaf." The gunman shouted in his pissed off tone.
"And maybe you should stop acting like selfish brat and just let me get the-"
*BOOM*
Ichigo, Orihime and Seinaru all had wide eyes on what just happened. The gunman just shot Ichigo in the stomach. He coughed up some blood before falling on his kness in pain.
"I tried to warn you little imp. No one gives orders to Fuzen Hidoukai and lives." Ichigo did nothing except glare at the gunman known as Fuzen.
"I knew it." Ichigo said in his mind while in pain. "I knew that it was him."
Orihime couldn't speak. She couldn't mutter a single sound from her mouth. She could only mutter a silent gasp with her hands covering her mouth. A couple tears went down her cheeks. She tried to move but her body wouldn't let her move from her spot. She was paralyzed with fear. Seinaru froze from his position as well.
"DAD! NO, NO, NO." Seinaru yelled in his mind. "YOU CAN'T DIE. PLEASE DON'T DIE."
Fuzen gave off a smug grin in victory. He then looked at Orihime and had a wicked grin on his face.
"I guess I shouldn't let you go to waste." Fuzen said with his grin still stuck on his face. Orihime quickly tensed up with fear. "Woman, you come with me. We're gonna have a good time tonight." Orihime became afraid when she heard those words. "Once I'm done here, we're leaving together." Ichigo was just about to lash out at Fuzen when a gun was pointed at his head. "You move, you die. You understand me?"
"You said you weren't going to hurt anyone while you're in this house." Ichigo said with venom in his tone. "You promised us both."
"When did I ever say 'I promise'." Fuzen asked in a smug tone. And Fuzen was right.
"Dammit." Ichigo swore.
"And now," Fuzen then walked over to Orihime and was just about to grab her hand when Orihime quickly backed off a few feet. "You are now coming with me and you will like it." Fuzen then attempted to grab Orihime's hand once again. But then something interrupted him.
"STOP YOU IDIOT!" Fuzen turned his head to see none other than Seinaru who just came out of his hiding spot that was in a dark closet nearby. Seinaru had a look malice on his face. When his parents saw him, they were shocked to see their son come out of his own safety and into danger.
"Seinaru, why did you come you idiot? It's not safe." Ichigo managed to mutter. "You could die here."
"Like you're one to talk Dad." Seinaru said with a grin on his face.
"Touche." Fuzen then looked at Seinaru, then at Ichigo, and finally at Orihime. He looked at the trio over and over again. He quickly started to laugh. At first it was a chuckle. But then it turned into a full blown hysterical laugh.
"So this is what you two were whispering on about earlier. You were talking about your own kid's safety." Seinaru's legs were shaking. He regretted walking out to the open with no plan at all. He jumped out on instinct when his mother was getting hurt. "And look here, you're shaking like crazy. So much for trying to be the hero for your parents."
"NO!" Orihime screamed. "Leave our son alone. Don't hurt him." A gun shot was then fired and it hit next to Orihime's shoulder. It barely missed her but it made her stop moving.
"I already told you, no one tells me what to do. I make the rules around here. Now be a good girl and come with me." Fuzen then walked over to the frozen Orihime.
"GET THE HELL AWAY FROM HER!" Ichigo screamed while getting back up slowly. "You touch either one of them, your dead." Fuzen then shot again at Ichigo's right shoulder and went down to one knee.
"Shut up and stay out of my way."
"NO!" Seinaru yelled as he then kicked Fuzen's shin as hard as he could. This caused him to be in pain but he didn't really fall down.
"You little imp." Fuzen fired his gun at Seinaru but he missed him the first couple of times. Seinaru then latched himself on Fuzen's left leg and bit him. Fuzen grunted in pain but he slammed Seinaru into the wall. Seinaru let go of Fuzen's leg after making contact the wall. Seinaru showed amazing endurance for a 9 year old and easily got back up after being slammed onto the wall. But that moment was short lived.
*POW*
The next event made Seinaru stop in his tracks. Fuzen fired a shot and it sliced across on top of Seinaru's right shoulder. The bullet however landed on the living room floor making a hole. His eyes went wide of how much pain he was in. Time slowed down while Seinaru was falling. Orihime also had wide eyes and gasped with her hands in front of her mouth. Ichigo glared at Fuzen with his own eyes that had malice shown all over them.
"You're a slow one when falling." Fuzen said with a smug grin on his face. "You should know what you're getting yourself into. You should've listened to your parents and stayed there in that closet. I also see you have two other children in there shaking with their tails between their legs. I'm gonna go check on them."
Seinaru finally landed on the ground after that last sentence. Once he hit the ground, he immediately screamed out in pain while clutching his right shoulder. The bullet wound looked something like a sword wound except it's not completely straight. Fuzen was just about to go to Rukia and Jinsuke when Ichigo grabbed one of Fuzen's legs brought him down. Fuzen landed on his stomach and Ichigo was just about to elbow him in the back when something stopped him.
"You hit me, your wounded son dies." Fuzen said while pointing his gun at Seinaru. Ichigo stopped in his tracks after that.
"Damn you, you bastard." Ichigo swore with malice in his voice.
"Yeah, that's what I thought." Fuzen got right back up on his fett. Then all of a sudden, loud police sirens were heard from outside of the house.
"What the hell? Who called the cops?" He then glared at Seinaru was still wounded but he was now unconscious on the floor. "You little imp. You called them. You will die." Fuzen then pointed his gun at Seinaru.
"NO DON'T SHOOT!" Orihime screamed. Fuzen ignored Orihime's plea and fired.
*CLICK*
But nothing came out of the gun. Fuzen fired again and again repeatedly but nothing came out.
"Dammit. I'm out of bullets." He then had a worried look on his face. "And the cops aren't here. Not good." He then glared at Seinaru, Ichigo, and Orihime. "You three bastards are lucky to see me and live. But I don't all of you will live much longer. Since the cops are here I have to leave. Seeya." Fuzen then jumped and crashed through one of the living room windows. Orihime immediately went over to her wounded husband and son on the ground. Tears were going down her face as she watched them. And then, police men came through the front door. They saw the wounded family on the ground as soon as they came in.
"Is everyone here alright? What happened." One of the policemen asked. He was bald and had thin facial hair. And then, Rukia and Jinsuke both came out of their hiding spot and went to their father.
"Daddy, you ok?" Rukia asked. A few tears were going down her face.
"I'm fine." said Ichigo trying to force a smile on his face.
Orihime then told the policemen what happened just now. The policemen saw Seinaru on the ground and called a hospital to get Seinaru. Orihime insisted that she could heal him herself but the policemen shot her down. After a few minutes went by, a hospital car was carrying Seinaru away. Ichigo was all bandaged up and he standing next to Orihime and his other two kids watching Seinaru go off. They would visit him later when the policemen were done talking to them.
"Orihime, he'll be fine." said Ichigo with a smile on his face. He knew Orihime was upset and he wanted her to feel better.
"Ok." Orihime said quietly. They then all went inside to clean things up.
"Hey sir." Ichigo called out to the bald police man. "Who called you here?"
"Well this is the number that we got when we got the call." The bald policeman showed on a small notebook in his pocket the number that called them. "Do you recognize the number?" Ichigo knew who it was.
"That's-"
Flashback End
Rukia shot out of bed after having that awful dream. She was panting lightly while looking down at her feet.
"It was just a dream, of that day." Rukia said in her mind relieved. She got out of bed and went to her window. "Seinaru almost died back then. He was really lucky to have survived. But why am I having that dream now. Is it trying to tell me something?" She then looked out the window. "Seinaru, are you in danger?"
Light knocking was then heard from Rukia's door. She walked over to her door to see Jinsuke there. He had a nervous look on his face.
"You had that bad dream to?" Jinsuke asked. Rukia nodded yes. She knew exactly what Jinsuke was talking about.
"You can come in if you want to." Said Rukia. Jinsuke took up on that offer and came in. Neither of them wanted to be alone right now. Jinsuke the slightly taller one came into the room. Jinsuke is 5'2 while Rukia is 4'11. They had good heights for being in the seventh grade.
"Do you think Seinaru is alright?" Rukia asked with worry in her voice. Jinsuke gave off a smile before he said,
"Why are you asking me? You know the answer. Seinaru is fine." Rukia smiled back and said while looking out her window,
"Yeah, you're right. Seinaru has been there for us and he always will be. He'll be there for everyone."
"What do you mean?" Jinsuke asked about that last sentence.
"Oh, it's nothing. Just thinking of something is all."
Seinaru
"Your time has come Fuzen Hidoukai." Seinaru shouted while they were fighting. "You will pay for everything you've done."
"Need I remind you Seinaru that," Fuzen then brought his arms in the shape of an X in front of his chest. A few white spikes extended from his arms. "I still have more up my sleeve little imp?" Fuzen launched the spikes at Seinaru. Seinaru evaded most of them and blocked a couple others. Fuzen launched more spikes from his fur and Seinaru did his best to dodge them all in any way he can. A couple of them managed to give Seinaru a few cuts. Before Seinaru could do anything else, Fuzen came out of nowhere in front of Seinaru and slammed his palm on Seinaru pinning him to the ground. Seinaru could not move while there was so much pressure on him. Fuzen's hands were so large that it almost covered his whole body. Fuzen also managed to grab Seinaru's Zanpakuto once again. He held the sword just above Seinaru's neck.
"It's about time I finished the job 8 years ago. You humiliated me that night. And I believe it's fair that I kill you so we're even." Seinaru tried to break free but it was no use. He was trapped with no way out. "I will kill you. I will enjoy it. And finally, you will enjoy your death." Seinaru could only watch as Fuzen raised the sword up in the air before bringing it down. "DIE!"
Seinaru watched the sword slowly come down. He glared at Fuzen as the sword came down.
"Do you honestly think I'll let you kill me here?" Seinaru said in his mind while still glaring at Fuzen. "I refuse to let anyone kill me. I still have people that I can't let down. I'm not going to lose against the bastard who hurt my family. I don't think you can relate at all. You know nothing about family. That's why I'm going to defeat you, and return to the people who care about me. I WILL WIN!"
*SHUNK*
Fuzen had wide eyes on what just happened. Seinaru managed to move his head to the side at the last second before the sword could connect with him.
"Impossible, there's no way that you could've dodged the attack when it was that close to you. There's just no way."
"Fuzen." Seinaru called out. Fuzen looked at Seinaru with a different look in his eyes. "The one who will win will be me." And then, the next event shocked Fuzen. Turquoise colored aura shot out of Seinaru like crazy. The Aura looked similar to flames as it burned Fuzen's hand.
"AAAAAAAAAAAH! What the hell was that?" Seinaru quickly got up from the ground. Fuzen dropped Seinaru's zanpakuto after getting burned like that. Seinaru still had turquoise aura shooting out of him. Seinaru extended a hand at his Zanpakuto on the ground and the sword immediately shot at Seinaru's hand just like that. When Seinaru gripped the hilt, he swung his sword to his right and a wave of turquoise aura shot out. All of the aura that was surrounding Seinaru's body all left and it completely surrounded Seinaru's Zanpakuto. The turquoise aura blazed around Seinaru's sword as he glared at Fuzen.
Fuzen could not believe what just happened.
"What was that? I was just about to kill this imp when he burned my hand. I have to kill this brat quickly." Fuzen then prepared another cero blast and launched it at Seinaru. When the blast was in front of Seinaru, it was then destroyed by a single swat of Seinaru's Zanpakuto that was covered in turquoise aura like it was a bug. Fuzen was shocked and fired cero after cero but Seinaru deflected them all. Fuzen then started to back off. "I must get away. This imp is dangerous." Fuzen then quickly ran away but he was stopped with a lighting fast Seinaru who appeared next to Fuzen and launched a kick at his face. Fuzen landed on the ground and Seinaru slammed a foot on Fuzen's head. Fuzen managed to barely get away from that with his wings by flapping up.
"You're not getting away." Seinaru said with resolve in his voice. Seinaru launched himself in the air and when he got to Fuzen, Seinaru grabbed his face with his own large hand and slammed him on the ground. Fuzen could not fight with Seinaru's newfound strength.
"Where did this imp get power like this?" Seinaru then jumped back after slamming Fuzen to the ground. Fuzen then got back up at glared at Seinaru.
"You will die brat." Fuzen then prepared two ceros in both of his hands. He gave off a wicked grin at Seinaru. "No one has ever survived my duo ceros attack before. You will now die here."
"Are you afraid?" Seinaru asked with a calm tone. This surprised Fuzen and it set him off.
"Who the hell do you think you're talking to? I'm Fuzen Hidoukai, the one who will kill you're sorry ass." Fuzen then launched the attacks at Seinaru. Just before the ceros could hit Seinaru, the blasts were deflected but that's not all that happened. Fuzen's stood still as his hands were both cut off by Seinaru.
"Now you can't use your ceros" Seinaru shouted. "And while I'm at it," Seinaru then used his lighting speed again to cut off the rest of Fuzen's arms off. "Now you can't attack using your special moves. You're done for." Fuzen became freaked out and used his wings to take lift off. He was high up in the air but Seinaru used a tree to launch himself up to Fuzen. "Coward!" Seinaru shouted. "You refuse to fight opponents stronger than you. The moment you know you will lose you flee. You enjoy torturing the weak. You have no shame at all." Seinaru then sliced Fuzen's wings straight off and slammed Fuzen to the ground by using a powerful kick. Fuzen desperately tried to flee with what he had left but Seinaru appeared right in front Fuzen's last chance of escape.
"You can't use ceros, you can't spikes, and you can flee or use your wings for defense. Those wings allowed you to harden your skin." Fuzen was surprised that Seinaru figured that out all on his own. "You know that feeling of helplessness, that feeling of fear you have right now? It feels great doesn't it? That's exactly what me, Mana, and every single one of your victims felt when you were alive. Never forget that feeling. Even when you're gone, burn that feeling into your brain." Fuzen was petrified at the point.
"Impossible, I never lose." Fuzen muttered.
"well count this as loss number 1." said Seinaru while preparing the final blow. "And here's one last piece of advice from your opponent." Seinaru's Zanpakuto then flared its bright turquoise aura once again.
"NEVER," Seinaru stepped back. "EVER," He gripped his Zanpakuto with all of his might, "COME HERE," Seinaru then launched himself at Fuzen's head, "AGAIN!"
*SHUNK*
Seinaru had delivered the final blow at Fuzen's head. He stabbed through the entire head front to back at the forehead. Seinaru pulled his Zanpakuto out of Fuzen's head and saw his whole body starting to fizzle.
"It's over. It's finally over." But before Seinaru turned around, he saw that Fuzen's body returned to normal instead of disappearing. He then felt the ground below his feet shake. "What's going on? Why is Fuzen still here?" Seinaru's question was answered when a pair of huge red doors shot out the ground without warning. There were large skeletons on both sides of the door and they each had a hand holding onto the handles. There were chains closing the door off. The ground started to shake even more.
"What in the world is that?" Seinaru asked to himself. The doors gave off an evil aura that made Seinaru almost shake.
"Those are the doors to hell." Seinaru looked behind him to see Tiana with a serious face that Seinaru has never seen before.
"Did you just say, the doors to hell?"
"Yes. Remember, the Zanpakuto takes away the sins a soul has commited while they were hollows. You already know this allows them to the soul society where they rest in peace. However, not every soul makes it to the soul society." And then, Seinaru heard clinks from the chains on the giant red doors. The chains that were keeping the doors together were starting to break apart. "You see, if a soul has committed any crimes while that human was alive, they stick to him. The Zanpakuto cannot wash away those crimes. Nothing can. So, we hand over those specific to hell." And then, the giant doors to hell opened as wide as they could. An ominous pressure came over Seinaru in a rush and he almost lost his balance. Tiana stood up just fine to the doors since she was used to it. Fuzen started to scream out in pain just from being so close to the doors. And then, a giant short sword came out of the doors and stabbed Fuzen's body and carrying him up. A giant demonic arm was holding the sword.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" A evil laughter could be heard that made Seinaru get a cold feeling up his spin. He also saw a pair of glowing crimson eyes inside of the doors. As the sword was being retracted inside of the doors, Seinaru started to shake. He has never felt anything more vile in his life. Once Fuzen was completely inside of the doors, the doors sank to the ground disappearing from the world. Seinaru was speechless. He had a certain emotion in his mind that he hasn't felt in a long time. He felt true fear.
"So hell, truly does exist." Seinaru finally managed to mutter.
And that's a wrap. Man I can't believe I managed to write this much again. I feel so proud of myself for writing this much again. This chapter has 11K words. I hope you enjoyed chapter 34.
First of all, before you ask, I know exactly what I wrote, every single detail. Honestly, I'm expecting at least one flame to occur after what I've done in here. So if you have flames for me, I strongly urge you to PM me rather than saying it in a review. I just prefer it that way. This way, I can respond to your flames privately. But please don't be mad at the plot that happened. It's just a fanfiction and it's only a fanfiction. I'm just merely trying to provide entertainment. So I repeat, if you have a flame for me, say it to me on a PM message. It's understandable if you have flames for me.
Secondly, once I release chapter 35 soon. The first book to "A New Bleach Generation" will be done. But don't worry, this story will continue on in the second story. And don't worry, I will give you a specific date on when the second book is released. So that way you can just check out my author page and it will be there. The plan is that each arc in this story will have a separate book. I don't want it all on one story otherwise it will be way too long for just one story. So yeah, that's the plan I have for this story's future.
Thirdly, I hope you all continue to read this story to the very end. Because I'm enjoying writing for everyone who likes this story. I will write to the best of my ability.
This is the Holy Writer signing out once again. Enjoy this story as much as you like. Cuz this story will never die.
