Chapter 52
I ate my meals lazily and stretched. It was one more hour til the "showdown". I had an idea with how to use Rei. How to combine my newfound kido use. I should get dressed. I picked up Rei and unseathed her to examine the blade. Shiny? A bit. Ready for action? Why not, it's good practice.
"We're going to try something new today. Don't hold back, Rei." I said while leaving the Shihouin residense. I walked slowly as I made my way to the Kuchiki house. I wonder if Byakuya was home already. I stopped by at the frontgates to say "Hi."
One of the guards stared down at me at said, "Are you that stupid brat who dared to challenge Ryusuke-dono?"
"That I am." I nodded with pride.
"You stupid bitch!" He cursed at me! "I hope Ryusuke-dono cuts off your tougue and puts you down in your place. Trash like you doesn't belong in the Gotei 13, you belong in the poorest brothel in Rukongai!"
"Hontoni?(Really?) Well, I'm going inside to wait while he gets home." I said while pretending not to notice what he said.
"You're not allowed to pass until Ryusuke-dono comes home! You will wait out here. If you try to pass I will cut you down." The stupid guard threatened me as he drew his sword.
"Fighting with you will get my muscles nice at warm. If, you can last." I said with a dangerous smile.
He held up his sword with both hands and pulled it down with incredible speed. He was planning on cutting me in half! I drew Rei with almost invisible speed, stopping his sword.
"You're not ready to fight anyone like me." I said as I easily glided Rei through his sword, breaking it.
"You-! You! Will pay for this!!" He started to shout angrily. He tried fighting me with his broken sword. I blocked each one of his attacks with ease. I yawned as he mericliessly tried to take my life. So boring! Through the clanging of swords, I could hear a lot of footsteps walking in the direction of the front gate of the Kuchiki house.
When I saw the group, I wondered just how many people were coming to watch us fight. Is this supposed to be some sort of show. I wasn't even paying any attention to the angry guard anymore. I deflected his attacks without looking at him. Yoruichi and Urahara were in the group. The Kuchiki family too. Captain Ukitake and that perverted captain. Tanaka and Aramaki. That old man captain, at that seemed like all of them
"Are you picking on my guard to show off?" Ryusuke asked as he walked up to me.
"No, he was picking on me. He called me a stupid bitch to my face and told me to go work at a brothel! And now he's trying to kill me!" I said with a forced dramatic voice.
"That's enough, Baigai." Ryusuke said to his guard.
"Yes sir!" Baigai stopped attack and stood to attention.
"Someone named their kid Baigai?(Baigai means small water snails)" I asked while shaking my head. Baigai gave me a dark stare.
Ryusuke entered the frontgate and I followed along with everyone else. We walked all the way to the Kuchiki training grounds. The group behind me talked among themselves, but I did not join them in conversation. Baigai followed aswell.
Ryusuke walked out onto the training grounds which was a large grassy field, for now! I walked into the field and stood several yards away from him. The group stood a good distance away, but not too far away. He drew his zanpakuto while I drew mine.
"Teru (Shine), Shinei na Hason." He said as his small thin katana glowed and morphed into a thick blade that was long and study. It seemed to be permenately glowing. This was the power of his light.
"Whoa, you could use that to read at night." I said outloud.
"I do! How could you tell?" Ryusuke admitted.
"With a glowing zanpakuto like that, who wouldn't?" I said merrily.
"Stop stalling! Rysuke-sama! Defeat her quickly!" Baigai shouted.
"Hmph." I said. "Hamukau, Rei!" And Rei was transformed. Personally, I did not think he would release his zanpakuto so quickly on me. But my plan to combat that now has to be used to start this fight? Oh well. Let's do it Rei!
"Hado number 4! White lightning!" I said as a surge of lightning flowed through Rei's blade.
"A consistantly kept kido spell?" Ryusuke said to himself. "Interesting."
We both charged at each other while I sent a wave of lightning at him. He dodged pretty easily with shunpo. He came at me from behind and I out ran him and sent another bolt. Missed again.
"Tricky old man." I growled at him.
"I'm not old! I'm very mature for my age!" He protested. He sent a wave of light at me? I tried to deflect with a bolt but it broke through! Still coming at me! Think quick! Come on Rei!
"Rage of winds!" I shouted as a sent a tornado to block it. It worked but it caused me to lose my Hado spell. Uh oh! He's charging for me now. I sent a few more tornadoes for him, but he dodged them all and came straight for me!
"Smoke attack!" I said as I dropped a smoke bomb pill. We both ended up coughing.
"Smoke bomb?" Ryusuke said while coughing. "Isn't that something only ninjas do?"
"I wanted to try something new." I cough. I took the opportunity to while he was disoriented to do something unexpected. I stomped on his foot really hard!
"Ow! That was mean!" Ryusuke squealed.
"I'm fighting like a ninja!" I stated proudly while coughing.
"When do ninja stomp on other people's feet? That's not the way of the ninja. That's the way of the child!" He shouted at me. "Let's get out of this smoke!"
We both wandered out of the smoke cloud and coughed heavily.
"What kind of fight is this?" Tanaka asked the group. The group shook their heads at us.
"Take that vile fiend!" I said while I slowly attacked Ryusuke with watery eyes. "My eyes are itchy."
"Mine are too." He sniffed while slowly blocking my attack.
"Why are we fighting again?" I asked.
"I'm not sure. Achoo!" He said sleepily.
"Oh, of course." I nooded while very unsure of myself. "You wanna, get some sake after this?
"We have some here, it's not as fun to drink here. It's more fun at a pub." He said.
"Oh like a yakitori one?" I suggested.
"Yeah, I know a great place to go eat." Ryusuke said. We actually both completely forgot about fighting and talked about what kind of food we liked.
"It's been a long time since I've had watermelon!" I said out of no where.
"It's been a long time for me too! Are they in season yet?" Ryusuke pondered to himself.
"I think they are. I saw some at the market and I was going to go buy it, but it keeps slipping my mind." I shook my head at myself.
"HEY!" Tanaka grew impaitent. "Have you guys forgot about fighting each other already?"
"Well yeah..."
"Sort of..."
Time for plan19! I created a thin ice needle and had it prick one of Ryusuke's fingers.
"Ow, that hurt." He said while looking at his injured finger. A small bead of blood appeared. "Looks like you won."
"That's it?!" Tanaka was losing his mind over where he was. He marched over to where we were angrily. "That wasn't a real fight!"
"Of course it wasn't. It it was, I would have been killed." I said.
"Did you want to fight him so you could beat him down?" Tanaka asked.
"I never said I was going to do that. Terms were to make him bleed and that's what I did." I nodded to myself.
"I'm going to fight you!" Tanaka announced! He drew his sword and the smoke that was still around caused me to sneeze in his direction. Tanaka went flying several yards. I wasn't concentrating on holding back my sneeze at all. I was still thinking about watermelons!
"Sorry about that. I have allergies." I giggled nervously.
"...brat..." Tanaka said before passing out. Was it really that strong?
"Geez, if you sneezed really hard in my direction, that would have taken ME out!" Ryusuke said while in a panic.
"Hmm." Captain Commander Yamamoto hummed to himself. "If you had more time to practice with your Zanjutsu, you would be a formitable shinigami."
"Where did you get that smoke bomb?" Yoruichi asked me.
"I made it!" I said excitedly. "It took me a few hours in the castle to make it. Rei helped a bit."
"I'm feeling guilty." Urahara said. "All that time and energy you put into kido crystal production leaves you with no time and energy to work on your fighting skills."
"My father was going to train with me and teach me a cool sword technique! So close! Why did I have to die so soon?" I whimpered to myself while forgetting people were around.
"Aren't human sword techniques inferior to shinigami?" Aramaki asked.
"Not always. Not the techniques my father could do." I shook my head. "Watch this." I said as I turned away from the group. I unsheathed Rei but did not release her form. I used both hands to make a powerful strike at the ground. It caused everyone to lose their balance for a moment. Well, Yamamoto didn't lose his balance, but everyone else did.
"Doryusen." Urahara said while looking at the impact. "A powerful, controlled and fast strike to the ground that causes earth and debris to fly out at the enemy. I've only seen it performed a few times. By the same man I've seen fight in several battles."
"Did he have dark reddish brown eyes and dark black hair? Did he hold his katana in his hand like this?" I said as I held my sword in my hand like I've seen him do.
"Yes, he did. His strength seemed inhuman. And possessed Godlike speed. That samurai had a few other special attacks not even I could mimic. How did you know of him?" Urahara asked.
"Huh? You weren't listening what I was talking about earlier. That samurai who has mastered all of those insane katana techniques, was my father." I said with irritation with the clueless 12th captain.
