tigergirl93

for reviewing. You guys are so damn awesome! :D And sorry for the several day delay. Had to move to the new house. So tiring. And my mom is fucking annoying me. She's drunk. She actually started yelling at my dogs to gt out of the house.

Everyone covered their eyes, smoke going past them, the wind strong. Rio and Yuri widened their eyes. What did she just say?! Did she say... she couldn't have said that, right? Shun couldn't have already reached Bankai. They all covered their eyes, Ichigo and Kimyo momentarily stopping their fights, looking at the smoke with wide eyes. Everyone looked up, one eye trying to see, trying to see through the wind and smoke. They all widened their eyes, seeing a tiger roar in the smoke before it disappeared. Shun smirked through the smoke, muttering the word once more.

"Bankai."

Rio and Yuri, along with all the Captains, widened their eyes, looking at Shun's form. She had a tail... and cat ears, both appendages were white, along with Shun's hair! She had a pair of white shihakusho bottom pants, while she had a white tank top. Not much of a difference in appearance, but in power, she was amazing! Everyone's mouths dropped open, seeing a bored look on Shun's face, rubbing the back of her neck, walking forward. Her left arm still hung lifelessly.

"Tora no Yuki Kaze Sashite Seppen." Shun muttered, eyes narrowed.

"Shun." Rio muttered, eyes wide.

Seeming to hear her, Shun slowly looked at her, mouth in a firm line. Rio felt a shiver go down her spine, swallowing, shaking lightly. Shun narrowed her eyes, looking away fro her friend, walking forward once more. Sighing, she looked up, glaring at the monster that stared at her.

"Really. To go through such lengths just to beat a ugly son of a bitch." Shun muttered, rolling her eyes.

She frowned, glaring at her arm, rolling her eyes again before grabbing her arm, wincing as she lifted it up. Rio and Yuri widened their eyes, seeing ice cover Shun's arm, acting like a cast. Sighing, she lowered her arm, looking up once more, a bored look still on her face.

Kenpachi's eyes were wide, shocked like everyone else. Shun had Bankai? Since when? Before their fight. If so, she was holding back on him. He curled his lip back.

"Bankai? Hm. So that girl is strong, is she?" Kimyo asked, smirking.

Shun curled her lip back, glaring at the man, clenching her right hand. Bastard. Looking back at the monster, she smirked, hand in her pocket. Kimyo continued to smile, glancing at the three women that have been getting his attention all through the fight. Especially the woman he thought he had killed. Shun took a deep breath, unaware she was on the screen, letting everyone stare at her. She opened her mouth, everyone widening their eyes when she started... roaring loudly. Rio and Yuri shivered, along with everyone else close to Shun, seeing a flash of light go towards the monster, coming from Shun's body.

"Hah!" Shun laughed, grinning widely, seeing a large portion of the monster turn into ice.

Rio and Yuri gasped, eyes wide. Shun did that... with a roar? She grinned widely, pupils dilating, chuckling darkly. This was gonna be fun. She put her hand back in her pocket, smirking widely. The monster narrowed it's eye, glaring at the woman, making the smirk widen. It raised a tentacle, smashing it down towards the woman, Rio and Yuri's eyes widening. They called for Shun, about to run forward until their Captains stopped them, holding them back.

"Heh. Slow."

Everyone widened their eyes, looking at the screen, seeing that Shun was in the air. She smirked as she flipped around, leg landing on the monster. The place she kicked turned to ice, breaking into millions of pieces. Shun jumped away, still grinning widely.

"Shinigami,"

Shun widened her eyes, turning around, looking at the monster in shock. Did it... just talk?

"What is your name, Shinigami?"

"Uh... Shun Masuyo." Shun said, narrowing her eyes, mouth in a firm line.

It was able to talk. The big pile of shit was able to talk?!!! Rio and Yuri swallowed hard. Shun. Bankai. They had a very bad feeling. Sure, Shun was strong with strength alone. Using her Shikai, she was able to kill anyone of any strength. But Bankai? It was murderous! She could probably kill over a hundred people in a couple minutes!

"...Shun. Nice name. It stands for 'speed', does it not?"

"Yeah." Shun said, frowning, clenching her hands.

"Well then, let's see if your name means you're fast!"

Shun grinned widely, seeing a large tentacle going towards her. Getting ready, she bent her legs, eyes almost slitted, a sadistic look on her face. Disappearing, she laughed manically. How fun! She continued to dodge, everyone having a hard time tracking her. Every time she disappeared, the people from below would have to look around wildly. How could someone be so fast? Appearing in the air, Shun widened her eyes, seeing a tentacle heading straight for her. Cursing, she twisted her body, feet landing on the tentacle, jumping off. Landing on the ground, she scowled. Damn. It was only playing with her. Hair covering most of her face, she smirked. And a fun game it was.

-:-

"How is that thing able to talk?!" Ichigo yelled, eyes wide, gripping his sword.

And Shun?! Having Bankai? When had she achieved it? That only meant trouble. Turning his head, he glared at Kimyo, frowning deeply. Something felt... wrong. Like he was fighting to wrong person. He shrugged it off. They jumped at each other, swinging their swords again.

Something was definitely wrong. When that thing had spoken, it looked at if Kimyo wanted to bow. Was there more to it?

They both widened their eyes, feeling something. Like it was heading towards them. Turning their heads, their eyes widened, seeing ice heading their way. Cursing at Shun, Ichigo disappeared, reappearing on top a building.

"Now, now Ichigo Kurosaki. You mustn't get distracted while we're fighting."

Ichigo narrowed his eyes, holding up his sword, blocking an attack. That little sneaky bastard. Attacking while he's not looking. He was a coward. Pushing the man away, he frowned, jumping forward.

"That girl is quite annoying." Kimyo said, narrowing his eyes.

"You mean Shun?" Ichigo asked, scowling, swinging his sword, cutting Kimyo's shoulder.

"Yes. To actually think of attacking him. She must be crazy." Kimyo said, smirking.

Him? He was actually calling that thing a person? He was crazy.

-:-

Rio and Yuri ran towards each other, not noticing that their Captains were following them. They didn't want them to get hurt after all. Reaching each other, they gave one another a shaky smile, looking at Shun.

"Yuri, did you know that Shun had Bankai?" Rio asked, eyes wide, shocked.

"No." Yuri said, shaking her head.

"The only question that is bothering me is... when did she get it?" Rio muttered, furrowing her eyebrows, looking at her friend.

"One question that's bothering me, is where is Kitty's sword?" Yuri asked, looking at Shun's body, seeing no sword whatsoever.

Rio and Yuri shared a glance, wondering about their friend. Was there more to their friend than they thought? Did she hide more stuff than they thought? Was she more powerful than they thought? Shun really was... secretive. How much had she kept from them?

Shun yelled, grinning widely, teeth seeming sharper, thrusting her hand forward, a wave of ice heading for the monster. Her eyes widened, a humorous shocked look on her face as the monster moved to the side. What. The. Hell? Shaking off her stupor, she frowned. So, it was able to move. Slowly.

"Tell me, do you happen to like fighting? I can see it in your eyes."

"Yeah. What about it?" Shun asked, getting irritated that it kept interrupting.

"Some people have weaknesses. And I know what you won't attack."

Shun frowned, narrowing her eyes. What she won't attack? Instinctively, she turned her head, looking at her two friends, looking at the lieutenant of the eleventh squad... then looked at the Captain. What was he talking about? She smirked, chuckling.

"You must be stupid. I don't have anything I won't attack." Shun said, grinning widely.

"Oh?"

Her eyes narrowed, seeing two blobs fall down. She bent her knees, thinking he was gonna attack her through the monsters. Seeing what the two morphed into, her eyes widened. She stopped breathing. Lowered her hand. Felt her eyes sting. In front of her were two people. Not just any two people.

Her parents.

Kasuki and and Haruna.

"Shun." Kasuki said, smiling softly.

Shun was frozen, staring at the two people with shock written all over her face. They weren't real. They weren't real. She repeated it in her head. They weren't alive. Haruna smiled softly, walking forward with Kasuki.

Rio and Yuri furrowed their eyebrows. Who were those people? Whoever they were, it had shocked Shun so much, she wasn't moving.

"You... bastard! Using them!" Shun growled, glaring at the monster.

"Shun, you have grown so beautiful." Haruna said, smiling. "I'm so happy that you're still alive."

"Yeah! A real beauty!" Kasuki said, grinning widely.

Shun curled her lip back, shoulders shaking, eyes widening, pupils dilating. She started breathing heavily, the air around her getting colder, hand clenching, her breath visible again. Rio and Yuri widened their eyes, falling to their knees, feeling Shun's reiatsu continue to rise. Shun breathed harshly, seeing those two people continue their way towards her, still smiling.

"I... I... I... want to... KILL YOU!!!" Shun roared, eyes wide, eyebrows pulled together.

She ran forward, running past both those identical forms of her parents. They weren't her parents! Jumping in the air, she pulled her fist back. Before she could land the punch, she stopped, eyes widening, seeing both those people in front of her, smiling. Growling, she disappeared, reappearing somewhere else. She cursed, narrowing her eyes. To actually use her parents. This thing was a coward!

Her eyes started to turn white. She shook her head. Fuck! Not now.

Rio and Yuri started to go forward, about to help their friend, seeing that she needed help and couldn't concentrate.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING DARE COME HELP ME!!!" Shun yelled, glaring at her two friends, lip curled back.

Rio and Yuri paused, eyes widening, seeing rage on Shun's face. They swallowed hard. They never seen her look so mad. During all the years they've known her, she has never looked so mad as she was at the moment.

Looking back at the monster, Shun curled her lip back, narrowing her eyes. Damn that thing!

"You're really starting to piss me off." Shun growled, glaring at the monster.

Her reiatsu started raising again, eyes narrowed dangerously. Her white hair and clothes swayed in the wind, light blue reiatsu surrounding the woman, hand clenched tightly. So tightly, blood was dripping down her hand and falling, turning into ice before it hit the ground. She curled her lip back, shadow covering her face.

"You really pushed me to the limit." Shun muttered, holding her hand out.

She smirked demonically, hair covering her face. She yelled, grinning widely, eyes wide, dilated, thrusting her hand forward, everyone watching as millions and millions of snowflakes appeared from her hand. All the Captains of the Gotei thirteen widened their eyes, seeing the snowflakes form into a large tiger, roaring loudly, making every window break into pieces.

"What... is that?!" Rio yelled, eyes wide, mouth opening slightly.

"It's a... a..." Yuri widened her eyes, clenching her teeth. She suddenly smiled brightly. "It's a Kitty!"

Everyone hit the ground around her, except for Byakuya, wondering how she could say that at a serious time. All the identical forms of everyone were absorbed by that thing, so no one was doing nothing but staring at the monster and tiger. Shun appeared next to the tiger, hand in her pocket, standing on the building next to it.

"Tora no Yuki..." Shun muttered, looking up, eyes narrowed. "Kill it."

The tiger roared loudly once more, everyone covering their ears. It ran forward, everyone able to see that snowflakes spin around the feet. It went through the monster, the monster screaming in pain, black blood spurting everywhere. Byakuya widened his eyes with shock.

"That's-"

"No one knows any other sword like Senbonzakura." Rio muttered, eyes wide.

Everyone around her looked at her, questioning in their eyes. What was she talking about. Rio and Yuri watched, eyes wide, watching as the tiger ran through the monster over and over again.

"Millions of little blades." Rio continued to watch. "Captain Kuchiki... do you remember when Shun and Yuri were fighting... Yuri had yelled out that Shun wasn't using the real form of her zanpakuto?"

"Yes." Byakuya said, giving a curt nod.

"That form in front of us... is Shun's zanpakuto... the real form." Rio said. "A million snowflakes. The same ability almost like Senbonzakura. Except, it can form into any weapon Shun chooses."

Byakuya widened his eyes with shock, looking back at the woman that stood on top a building. Same ability... as his zanpakuto?! That means all those snowflakes are actually... blades. Shun had her mouth in a firm line, eyes narrowed, glaring at the monster. She slowly looked at the two forms that looked like her parents. She curled her lip back, growling.

She pointed her palm at them, looking away, continuing to glare at the monster. The tiger split into two, one of the large tigers running towards the two people Shun had considered parents. She didn't watch. She didn't watch as they turned into ice and broke into thousands of pieces. She sneered, glaring at the monster with hatred. She would kill it, even if she was going to die. Using her parents made it personal.

"Whoa." Ichigo muttered, eyes wide, seeing the tigers.

Kimyo panted, black blood covering his body. He cursed, glaring at the orange haired man. How was he able to wound him now? Ichigo turned back, narrowing his eyes.

"I get it now." Ichigo muttered, clenching his teeth together.

"What?" Kimyo asked, frowning, narrowing his eyes.

"You're not behind this whole thing!" Ichigo yelled, narrowing his eyes.

-:-

"That guy isn't behind this whole thing." Shun muttered, eyes wide, looking at the screen.

That's what Ichigo figured out? Then... if Kimyo isn't behind the whole damn war, then who is? Shun curled her lip back, turning her attention back towards the bastard. One thing has been bothering her. How did he know how her parents looked like? Tora no Yuki bit into the monster, making the black gooey thing cry out in pain, roaring loudly. Shun smirked, seeing the black monster start to turn into ice.

"Tora no Yuki has something like venom. Like poison, it spreads throughout any organic substance, freezing it until it eventually turns into ice and breaks." Shun said, eyes narrowed. She smirked. "Great thing is... it only takes several minutes."

Everyone watched, all the Captains gaping, hearing the monster roar loudly, ice spreading throughout the body, it's tentacles freezing. Something shot out of the monster, but Shun chose to ignore it, eyes still narrowed. Rio and Yuri widened their eyes, seeing the monster crack and break, black icicles flying everywhere.

Everyone was quiet.

No one made a sound.

No one moved.

No one even breathed.

"SHUN!!! LOOK OUT!!!"

Shun widened her eyes, turning around, feeling a tentacle wrap round her body. What the hell?! It tightened around her body, making her grit her teeth, clenching her hand.

"SHUN!!" Rio yelled, eyes widening.

"You... wench!"

Everyone turned their gazes, looking at a man, seeing that the tentacles came from... his hand?! The man had long pointy black hair, orbs black, clothes black. What was weird about his clothes was that... they were shinigami clothes. Shun groaned in pain, eyes closed tightly.

The man growled, furious. This woman was ruining everything!

Kurotsuchi tilted his head, making a surprised sound. Oh, he recognized him.

"Who... the hell are you?!" Shun yelled, voice strained.

"I'm the mastermind behind this whole thing! Shin Kayusei!" He growled, glaring at the woman.

He narrowed his eyes, sensing someone behind him, pointing his other hand at the two that dared attack him, tentacles shooting out and grabbing... Rio and Yuri?! Byakuya and Hitsugaya widened their eyes, turning their heads, seeing that their subordinates left while they weren't looking.

"You're a coward! Let Kitty go!" Yuri yelled, one eye closing from the pain.

"You two have ruined everything as well!" Shin yelled, narrowing his eyes.

He smirked, eyes glinting, focusing all his powers on the three women. Other tentacles shot out from him, going all over the Seireitei, choosing specific shinigami, mostly lieutenants. Shun, Rio, and Yuri widened their eyes, screaming, feeling something... going inside of them, slipping through their skin. Byakuya, Hitsugaya, and Kenpachi widened their eyes. Cursing, they all started running. Damn those idiots for getting involved.

All their reiatsu started turning black, along with their eyes, all screaming in pain. Shit! It hurt! Tears streamed down both Rio and Yuri's face while Shun breathed harshly, trying to stop herself from screaming. Shun's Bankai disappeared, her clothes and hair turning back to normal. All their eyes were wide, face darkening, lowering their heads, all their screaming quieting down. Smirking, Shin, the true enemy, dropped them, seeing them all crash and hit the ground.

"Fuck!" Kenpachi growled, stopping, several meters from the women.

Were they too damn late? Byakuya narrowed his eyes, waiting for anything, wanting to know if Rio was alive. Hitsugaya looked up, glaring at the man. This whole time, they were going after the wrong person.

All three Captains stepped forward, seeing Shun, Rio, and Yuri sit up. Hitsugaya furrowed his eyebrows, hoping Yuri was all right. When they turned their heads, looking at them, all the Captains widened their eyes, seeing that all their orbs... were black.

"Captain Zaraki... how about we... have some fun?" Shun asked, grinning widely, black orbs shrinking, looking murderous.

"Yes, Captain Kuchiki. I feel up to a game. How about you?" Rio asked, smiling softly.

"I wanna play a game!" Yuri cheered, jumping up and down excitedly.

All the Captain stared in shock. They acted and looked like them, but... they knew better. Glancing up, they glared at the man. Bastard. Sniveling little coward.

"What do you think? After the little time I have known them, I think I have gotten their personality's pretty good." Shin said, smirking, standing on top a building. "But the question is... can you kill them?" He asked, chuckling darkly.

Fuck. He had them under his control. Looking at the women, they frowned. What the hell were they going to do?
