Kenta could feel that they were flying threw the air. The icy wind from the sea blew violently around him. It was so intense that it felt like in the middle of a tornado. His father was with him. Both screamed. The Hollow took them up in the air. Higher and higher. Thier burning hometown below and thier fleeing inhabitants.
Keigo didn't know what to do now. He wanted to safe Kenta out of the Hollow's grip at any cost. But if the Hollow would unleash them now, both will fall down on the ground an die. They were too high, now. He and his son hit with thier fists on the monster, as strong as they could, still hoping that it may drops them off at the ground safely.
"KEIGO... WE'RE COMMING!" Ichigo screamed as loud as possible and jumped up in the air to slain the Hollow.
Ichigo was so fast, that Keigo had no time to react. It was a super-speed, Keigo on the one hand was very impressed off, on the other hand was very scared off. And so, Ichigo's sword impaled the Hollow, that kidnapped him and his son and it finally let them go... 120 metres over the ground...
Kenta start to scream again when he start to fall down. His father right next to him. Somehow he was able to grab him, but something suddenly torn them apart...
Makoto stormed out of the house, she was hiding in and wanted to run away with the other people. But than she saw Ichigo slaining the Hollow and Keigo and his son falling down. She screamed in horror, when she saw father and son falling down for thier doom, but suddenly, two other Shinigami jumped up in the air... One catched the boy, the other one his father... Makoto jumped into the bushes and took her smartphone to continue filming everything for the Live-broadcast...
Ichika got Kenta, while the Shinigami from the department catched Keigo and took him away from the scene to treat him...
"DADDY..." Kenta screamed loudly when he saw his father disappearing. "LET ME GO! LEAVE ME ALONE! AGHHH..."
Ichika did her best when she tried to calm down Kenta. But she was not able to, because he was too upset. Kenta's face was full of blood, as well as his clouthes. He tried to push Ichika away. She was one of them. She was one of this creatures his father warned him about. He screamed, he kicked and slaped her. Ichika was too surpised about the boys behaviour that she let him go, just to not to upset him more than he already was. She knew that the boy had to be pretty terrfied now. But than he ran away...
"HEY... COME BACK!" Ichika screamed.
Kenta ran away and picked up something from the ground to throw it on Ichika to stop her from following him. It was a small piece of debris. A part of a roofing tile, to be exactly. Ichika was so surprised, that she didn't even avoid the tile before it hit her head. The impact was not very hard and not even pretty painful. It was just a very small piece. But now she was distracted. And so she didn't look where she was running and stumbled over something. Kenta ran around the next corner and she lost him...
"DADDY... DADDY, WHERE ARE YOU?" Kenta screamed loudly.
There was a huge chaos all around him. Houses were on fire, the streets were covered with debris... and with people. Some were alive and twitched. But many of them were definetely dead. A river of blood flowed between his feets...
Totally afraid he looked around again. Normally he knew his hometown. He knew every road, every house, every crossroad and even every bush. But now he didn't recognize it anymore. He had absolutely no clue where he was right now. But he recognized the faces of the dead people around him. He didn't endure it and ran away to find his father...
Later was 'kidnapped' by the Shinigami from the department of humans with spiritual awareness and brought to a safe place. Away from Ichigo and the others. Keigo react like his son: He screamed, slaped and kicked. The Shinigami unleashed him too and tried it with words. The crack in Keigo's head already reached his neck. The spiritual energy was literaly spilling out of his body. Keigo looked around shocked. The Shinigami brought him to the forest... and out of town...
"KENTA... WHERE IS MY SON?" Keigo screamed on the Shinigami.
"He is safe, don't worry!" the Shinigami screamed back and took something out of his pocket. "Asano... you are falling apart! Just let me fix your Gigai... This is the only way to stop the Hollows attacking this town..."
Another Hollow aproached... and indeed a Hollow jumped out of the bushes and tried to snap Keigo. The Shinigami jumped in and slained the monster. Keigo used the chance to flee from the spot. But another Shinigami suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stopped him...
"LEAVE ME ALONE!" Keigo screamed. When the Shinigami didn't let him go, Keigo smashed his elbow into his face. The Shinigami roared in pain when Keigo broke his nose. But he was still able to hold him while he continued to kick with his arms and legs to free himself.
"I think we need more help!" the overwhelmed Shinigami screamed...
Ichigo, his family and the Abarais meanwhile were busy... The Hollows became less, but they didn't stopped from approaching from all over. It was like every soul and Hollow from all over Asia was on the way here. And at the same time, the Hollows seemed to swarm out again. Because they were neighter able to feel Keigo, nor Kenta.
"ICHIGO!" Rukia screamed when she approached him. "Ichika lost the boy! He ran away and we can't find him."
"WHAT?! We have to find him! He can't handle the Hollows by himself." Ichigo screamed. "Where is Keigo?"
"Two guys from the department got him and took him away!" Renji jelled. He watched everything. "They went this way!"
Ichigo had no clue where to go first. It was obvious that Keigo was protected by the department for all this years and they still protected him. Not only from the Hollows, but also from them. And the child? Who was looking for the child, right now? Ichigo used his powers to localize souls. He tried to find the boy...
The boy ran across the streets, until he passed a house, whose owner just came out to get his cat inside. The man saw Kenta running outside, jumped in his way and grabled the boy by his shirt instinctively. He wanted to get him inside, to be safe from the 'aliens' and because it was too dangerous outside.
"YOUNG BOY, THIS IS TOO DANGEROUS! COME AND HIDE!" the man screamed full of fear.
"I HAVE TO FIND MY DADDY!"
"NO! THE ALIENS WILL CATCH YOU..." the man screamed but Kenta was able to free himself and ran away. He didn't want to hide. He knew that the man just wanted to help him, but he was also pretty sure now, that these 'aliens' were after him. And he didn't want to endanger the man. Or his cat! And so Kenta continued running until he met his friends at the next crossroad...
"KENTA!" Rin screamed with waving arms when he spotted his friend. His friends Rin and Taro, thier fathers and several other fishermen and harbor-workers escaped the inferno, that was still raging at the harbor, and looked for a safe place to hide.
"GUYS!" Kenta screamed and approached his friends.
Kenta wanted to get to his friends. He was relieved that they were unharmed. But a man from the group, whose face and clouthes were full of blood, rushed forward, grabled Kenta and pushed him down on the ground.
Kenta screamed. He never experienced someone treating him like that.
"YOU!" the man screamed angrily. "YOU LITTLE MONTER... WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?"
Kenta wanted to scream in fear, but he was not able to. The man remembered the both other boys talking before: Telling thier fathers that Kenta predicted all this. The plane that crashed in Konan and than the explosion of the trawler here in thier harbour. The boys wanted to stop him. The other men tried to calm down him, too. But he grabled Kenta again and threatened him...
"I don't... know it!" Kenta cried... the angry man meanwhile was so close from abusing him or doing anything else bad to him and had to be stopped by the others. "I SWEAR IT..."
"YOU LIE!" someone else screamed.
Kenta turned around and saw a woman. She was watching them threw her shattered window the whole time. She was pale and she hold a knife in her hand for self defense.
"I... I saw you that day... On the soccer field, in the bushes, where they found the dead child several years ago... You... You talked to someone. You talked with someone, but there was nobody. And just a few seconds later... that tornado start to rage, right there were you stood..." the woman told. The fear in her voice was hearable. "And... than the incident in school... Everyone says that you predicted the debris hitting your teacher... Are you some kind of... a witcher? A medium? Or what ever? WHAT ARE YOU?"
"I DON'T KNOW IT!" Kenta screamed again before he saw a small Hollow aproaching them. "AGHHH..."
Kenta tried to avoid the attack and turned away. The small Hollow seemed confused. But luckily it missed him just a few inches, made a looping and hit the powerlines right over the group. One of the cables was torn off and fell on the ground right between Kenta and the man who tried to attack him again. The man was still full of anger, but than he stumbled... and fell directly on the cable...
In horror, all present people saw how several hundred volt shoot threw the man's body. First turning the man unable to move, than filling his whole body with unbearable pain and than setting his clouthes on fire... Another man instinctively tried to help, but as soon as he touched him, he got a electric shock, too and became unconscious. The Hollow came back, grabbled the man to drag him across the whole crossroad. Together, the others tried to beat the little monster to force it away. Kenta had to witness everything. Until he could hear someone calling his name... It was his fathers voice...
Keigo ran like a maniac across the burning, with waste and debris covered streets. Looking for his son... He had to find him, before someone harms him. His body start to feel weird. And it became worse with every second. It felt like his body turns 'rigid'...
"KENTA! KENTA, WHERE ARE YOU?" Keigo screamed as loud as possible. And he was able to scream really loud. Since always. But not only Kenta was able to hear him. Everyone else, including the people who knew him for a very long time now, were able to identify this voice...
"That came from this way!" Orihime realized and pointed to the direction the voice came from.
"He wants to get to his son!" Rukia added. "You saw his head... he will blow up like a balloon."
"And what happens than?" Ichigo asked.
"Than, every Hollow in this area will storm towards Keigo immediately." Rukia explained, while they ran threw the town together to get to Keigo.
It was simply to much at the same time: Keigo, his child, Tatsuki, this Hollow-Invasion... Nobody of them even had a single second of time to think about it, or to handle the shock about Keigo was just his soul in a Special-Gigai living in North-Hokkaido with his son he kidnapped ten years ago to protect him from the whole Shinigami-Hollow-Supernatural stuff.
Yupa Taramasaki, who was a part of all this voluntarily, did everything possible to prevent the situation in Karakura to escalate, too. He locked all doors and windows in the Kurosaki's house, hid the 'corpses' and tried to calm down his angry parents, who stood both in front of the clinic. Both saw the report in TV and were convinced that thier son is 'jinxed'. Again!...
Kenta meanwhile saw the Hollow let off from the now dead harbor-worker. It was severly injured now and had to flee from the angry crowd. The man who attacked him was still burning until someone arrived with a blanket to extinguish the flames...
"KENTA!" his father screamed again.
Kenta turned around to see his father approaching: "DADDY!"
Kenta lift up to run to his father. Or at least to that what was left of him. The crack in his head became longer and the black broth still came out of it. But Keigo was so relieved to see his son again. These few minutes felt like a eternity. Next to the boy, there was a burned corpse on the ground. Keigo didn't want to even think about the fact, that his son might saw the man dying.
"KENTA, I AM HERE!" Keigo screamed. They were just a few metres away from each other. "DON'T BE AFRAID! WE WILL MOVE TO RUSSIA..."
But suddenly several people appeared between him and his son. To be exactly: The Kurosaki's and the Abarai's...
"KEIGO!" Ichigo screamed before Keigo crashed into the Shinigami and was stopped abruptly.
Keigo could feel Ichigo's arm in his chest... He remembered that feeling from school... Kenta screamed, but he was catched by Kazui and Ichika. In the meantime, thier parents surrounded Keigo, who was sitting on the ground now. Like wild animals surrounding thier prey...
"DADDY!"
"Calm down! We won't hurt him!" Ichika jelled. "We only want to help him..."
Ichigo, Orihime, Rukia and Renji looked on Keigo. Much to his surprise, they didn't looked angry or mad. They looked kind of relieved and sad. Everyone could see the crack, that opened after Tatsuki's attack threw his torn shirt. This crack was the orgin of the spiritual wave. Kenta and his uncontrollable fullbring somehow triggered something, too...
"Keigo..." Ichigo wailed and fell on his knees.
"Come on... bring it on!" Keigo said hardly breathing. "Finish it!"
Everyone was surprised and confused.
"What?"
"That, what Tatsuki began!" Keigo wailed. "But... no matter... what you do to me... Let me say, just one thing... Hands off... my son..." with this sentence he shocked his former friends just more than they already were. "...He... didn't... did anything..."
"We don't want to harm him!" Ichigo wailed and bowed to apologize. "Oh, please... Keigo... I am so so sorry... Everything! This is all just our fault..."
Keigo mentioned that it was hard for him to breath. All over around them suddenly a lot of ghosts, other Shinigami and humans who hid inside thier houses before appeared to watch them. Slowly Keigo realized something...
"The... the man... in the taxi... That was you!" Keigo realized. "Be... Because of you... the boy was suddenly able to see ghosts..."
"That... that was not on purpose..." Ichigo murmured.
Just in this moment, two other Shinigami appeared. Both from the department and they had some kind of canister with them...
"Here we are..." the Shinigami jelled and opened the canister to spill a stinking, pale green liquid over Keigo. Keigo start to protest. The others, too. Kenta screamed again. But it was necessary. "...That's just a liquid for Gigai-Repairs. And it isolates Asano's spiritual energy..."
"Just leave him alone!" Ichigo screamed. Keigo was surprised.
For the humans, this was just an act of bullying: A bunch of violent guys tormenting and humiliating thier victim. If this was some kind of TV-play or movie, this would be the scene that was supposed to turn the viewers angry and to turn the bullys into hate figures. Makoto filmed everything from safe distance and commented it for the TV-broadcast just as that what it looked like: A public humiliation of an innocent human by the Shinigami. But Keigo mentioned that it was turning the black liquid from his wound, into some kind of glue and his body seemed to stop crumbling...
"DADDY! LEAVE HIM ALONE!" Kenta screamed and escaped from Kazui's and Ichika's grip to run to his father. There he pushed the Shinigami with the canister away. The overwhelmed Shinigami lost balance and fell down, dropping the canister.
The stinking liquid, covered Keigo and Kenta was spilled, too. His father just took his son to lay over him to protect him.
"We really don't want to hurt you..." Ichigo start to beg.
"GET AWAY!" Keigo screamed now with his normal, for everyone recognizable trademark voice. "KEEP OFF, EVIL GHOST!"
Ichigo and the others suddenly start to feel some kind of heavy windgust. An invisible force, let everyone shy away for one or two metres from Keigo. It was a spiritual power. Nobody was able to feel if Keigo was the one who pushed them away, or his son. But it was pretty strong. And now that everyone was away, Keigo was finally able to see the whole mess...
This little town, in the north of Hokkaido, that was thier home for so many years, turned into a battle zone. Thier peaceful and carefree town wasn't anymore. Houses were on fire or were so hardly damaged that they were uninhabitable. A huge firestorm destroyed the harbor. Everywhere corpses or injured people laid on the ground. The spirits of the victims were all around them and they could feel that Keigo was a ghost, too... Keigo had to cry. And his tears were made of blood. But only the others were able to see it.
"This is the reason I left!" Keigo said while he stand up carefully and hugged his son. "This is the reason I never told you about the boy. I didn't leave because you just tolerated me... or because you humiliated me. I was just too naive and to dump to realize that it was so. No... I left because of this... because of all this... this what's going on here and what you see here... LOOK ON IT! LOOK ON THE HELL! LOOK ON THE HELL THAT CAME OVER OUR WORLD!"
Keigo screamed so loud that Makoto's camera was able to record the final sentence. Keigo's former friends realized immediately what Keigo wanted to say them...
Keigo hold his son. It was strange, and also very disturbing... seeing all these people looking on him like he is a attraction in a freakshow. It looked like they were standing for him in a trelis. Many of them full of blood, with fear in thier faces. The ghosts looked weirdly on him... some kind of begging...
Keigo was a ghost. He realized it by now. He didn't feel the body anymore he was carrying with him. He had to accept the fact that he was not more than puppet. A broken puppet, made and conroled by the Shinigami that will fall apart and crumble into dust before the sun sets tonight... He didn't know what hurt more: The fact that he had to say goodbye to his son, now. Or to confess to him that thier whole life was a lie. Now he could only hope that Akira will take care of thier son now and will give him a happy life in the lonlely bareness of Sibiria...
"So, your real name is Keigo Asano?"
"Yes!" Keigo answered wistful when he took his son by his hand to walk away. He still had to get him out of town. He just left the totally stunned and overwhelmed Shinigami behind. He didn't care for thier feelings. He just saw that they were hurt by his words and that was enough for him.
"And... everything in our life is a lie?"
"No! Not everything! You... are authentic! You were born with your name. I am the lie. I am the liar. And I am so sorry! I didn't want anything of this happen."
"Mommy?"
"Your mother is in Tokyo! The is the woman from this sitcom! She agreed that I take care of you, to prevent the Shinigami from finding you."
"Do we really have to move to Russia?!"
"If you don't want to... we just look for another place to live. Russia, Korea... another planet... whereever you want to go." Keigo murmured while he felt his feet start to crumble.
"I don't want to move away!" Kenta answered.
"Me, too... Kenta! Me, too!" Keigo wailed, before he could feel that it happens.
Threw his torn clouthes, Keigo could see that the crack suddenly extend from his neck over his chest and down to his stomach... The stinking liquid just helped for a few minutes, or this body was too damaged before so that even that had no effect anymore... It didn't hurt! It just felt realy weird... to see your body breaking apart...
The viscous black liquid inside of him, start to splash out of him. Some people faded away in shock. Others screamed. And others just turned around disgusted.
"DADDY!" Kenta screamed when he had to see his father falling apart...
"OH NO!" one of the Shinigami screamed.
"KEIGO!" Ichigo screamed after. "What's happening with him?"
"His Gigai is failing..." another Shinigami jelled.
"Daddy, what's wrong with you!" Kenta jelled, when his father fell on his knees.
The Hollows around them, stormed towards them immediately...
"WATCH OUT!" someone screamed. Ichigo maybe. Keigo didn't listen. He just saw the Hollow approaching. And than it happened again... something jumped inbetween them...
Keigo could feel that the Hollow hit his broken body. And he could feel that a Shinigami tried to push himself inbetween him and the monster. He saw a trail of orange... Ichigo!
Ichigo jumped inbetween them to prevent the Hollow eating Keigo's now 'exposed' soul. Later pushed his son away to safe him from the Hollows attack. That was the moment Ichigo used his Zanpakutou again...
The people screamed. Keigo was not able to feel anything anymore. And Kenta was now finally traumatized... as he had to see his fathers head falling on the street right in front of him...
Kenta screamed, the people around them screamed... and Ichigo screamed, too... When he used his Zanpakutou to cut threw the Hollow, the lace of his sword got into the crack in Keigo's Gigai and torn it apart once for all. Keigo's head was torn off and fell on the ground, right in front of his son. Full of fear and horror, Kenta looked on his fathers head and screamed again. And his father, finally felt the body around him falling off, revealing his true ghost-form...
To his surprise, it was painless. Ghosts don't seem to feel pain, Keigo thought when he saw his body, of which he thought that it was the one he was born with broke apart and fell on the ground like a dismembered corpse. The black liquid (was it blood or glue noone knew) splat in all directions and sprinkled over the disgusted witnesses. Keigo saw that he was 'transparent'. He didn't have a chain of fate anymore. It seemed to have vanished long before...
"OH, NO!" Ichigo screamed. That was the moment he realized that he 'really killed' Keigo this time.
From safe distance, Makoto filmed everything with her smartphone. She screamed, too, while millions of TV viewers could see Ichigo 'cutting off Keigo's head' Live...
Keigo looked on Ichigo succintly. He knew, his body was going to crumble anyway within the next hour. But was it really necessary to do it in front of so many witnesses.
"This time, it is your fault!" Keigo murmured angrily. He was not even able to finish his sentence, when right behind him the Gates of Hell appeared...
In panic, the people ran away, when the Hollow Ichigo just slained and several other Hollows were sucked threw the hole...
"WHAT IS THAT?" Keigo's ghost screamed.
"THE GATES TO HELL!" Ichigo answered.
"HELL?" Keigo was totally perplexed. So it was true. And the Hollow, that just attacked him and his son vanished threw the portal.
All over the town, the humans could see the 'alien Monsters' circling threw the air neighter vanished into black smoke, nor were sucked into the glaring light, that was once a crossroad... but turned into a huge Gate to Hell. For the humans, it looked like mosquitos flying into an electric insect killer...
It was an incredible view. Shocking but also very fascinating. No Shinigami has ever seen such a big Gate to Hell. While all Hollows seemed to vanish, or were pulled into hell, Keigo's ghost looked after his son...
Later still stared on the detached head of his father and just mentioned his father when he was right in front of him.
"Kenta, Kenta, look on me..."
"Daddy... They... They killed you?!" the boy cried. Seeing his father as a ghost was a huge shock. He barely recognized him. Of course Keigo's ghost looked like the living Keigo ten years ago before he died: brown hairs and a scare less face.
"Kenta... I am here... don't be afraid."
The earth was trembling. The fleeing humans were thrown down to the ground... the Gates to Hell start to grow... and they were already much bigger than any Shinigami have ever seen before. When they became bigger, one more Hollow was sucked threw the Gate. After the last Hollow, it normally had to close... but it didn't...
"What's going on?" Orihime screamed.
"The Gate is unstable..." Rukia realized. "It's not closing..."
Keigo, who could hear them, looked on his son and than on the Gate. He could imagine why it is not closing...
Makoto, who was still filming everything, was not able to stand anymore because the earthquake became stronger. But she was now close enough to film Keigo's dismembered body and his ghost that tried to hug the boy one last time... But he was not able to touch him. Kenta really wanted to hug his father, too. But he was just able to see but not to touch him... And Ichigo meanwhile somehow tried to handle the energy from the Gate to prevent Keigo getting in it. All other Shinigami, Humans and spirits were so scared that they were not able to move. But Keigo knew why the gate didn't close... one soul was still missing...
"Kenta..." Keigo said and looked into his son's eyes. "I love you! And no matter what happens... LIVE! LIVE YOUR LIFE! And let nobody force you to be someone you are not!"
Keigo tried to kiss his son on his forehead. Kenta mentioned it and start to cry again. But than his father vanished, passed Ichigo, who was still distracted, and prepared to go to hell, too.
"KEIGO! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Ichigo screamed terrified. His family, his friends and nearly every other human or Shinigami around them, who witnessed everything start to scream, too. They all realized that Keigo was about to go to hell by himself...
"I get what I deserve for my sins!" Keigo moaned repentant. "Farewell, guys!"
With this words, Keigo let himself fall into the gate...
Keigo could feel it: The pain, the sorrow, the torment... and this terrible and tormenting noise... that's how he always imagined the hell: A place in that he will feel hellish agony for eternity... he could see Ichigo over him, how he tried to reach him with his hands to catch him, but Keigo was already too far away. Ichigo screamed endlessly, how sorry he is. Keigo just closed his eyes. He could see the gate closing. So his time was over... and now really this time... He really wanted to see Kenta grow up. But he was not even able to protect his son from all this. He deserved it... he deserved to burn in hell. Because he was a liar, because he kidnapped a child, killed Tatsuki and because he was responsible for all the victims of this Hollow-Invasion...
All the humans in town, who were forced to witness everything, were totally shocked and perplexed about Keigo's act: He sacrificed himself... for his child and for everyone else. Makoto still screamed, while she continued filming... But than the people could see that Keigo's act was a sucess: The Gate to Hell start to close...
Ichigo screamed Keigo's name ever and ever again. But he was not able to do anything. He could only see Keigo beeing sucked into hell... The others screamed, too. They couldn't accept it and they didn't want to. Despite the fact that the surrounding Hollows all vanished... But suddenly, there was this bright flash of light...
Keigo was able to feel it, too... suddenly he didn't feel any pain anymore... and he felt something else... he went up... he could feel that he was torn up again...
The present Shinigami were astonished when they saw Keigo's soul poping out threw the already half closed Gate to Hell, turned into a black butterfly like in a Konzo and vanished in a bright light... The Gate to Hell vanished, too and suddenly it was silent... The crossroad was back on it's place. Even the car, the people saw disappearing in the Gate was back on it's place...
Ichigo, who stood right in front of the Gate, was thrown down and sat now on the street. He never ever saw anything like this. It was... indescribable. Keigo's soul was already on the way to hell, but the hell seemed to 'deny' him. The hell 'denied' to take Keigo's soul. And now there was this silence again. It was so quiet, that they could hear the waves at the coast. It was not far away, but it sound so soothing. The sun was shining! They sky was cloudless and blue. It was a wonderful day again... if not the half town was on fire...
Kenta screamed desperately for his father. He and all the other humans, just saw Keigo going to hell. They didn't mentioned that Keigo's soul was 'spit out' again. But why? And how? Is Keigo now on the way to Soul Society? Keigo was also surprised when he realized that he was not on the way to hell anymore? Did the Shinigami safed him against his will? For a brief moment, he just saw that he was passing the Gate again and entered the world of the living again. And than he start to vanish, but it felt good. Some kind of nice. But it was so fast, that he was not even able to look for his son one last time. Later finally turned frantic...
"DADDY! NO..." Kenta screamed with tears in his eyes. "WHY?"
Some Shinigami slowly realized that they just witnessed a very rare phenomenon: A good soul, walking threw the gate to hell... But the hell itself, didn't accept the soul. Not because the hell didn't want it. But because the soul had a pure heart and was 'too good' for hell. And Keigo Asano was way 'too good' for hell and did not fit in it... But with his brave act, Keigo managed to close the Gate, that was just too big and almost destroyed the rest of the town. He safed everyone. But all the human witnesses, including Keigo's totally hysteric son, didn't understood it... They just saw a man beeing doomed...
"AGGHHH... YOU MURDERER, KILLER, KILLER..." Kenta screamed loudly and hammerd with his fists on Ichigo who was still sitting on the ground.
"HEY... HEY!" Ichigo screamed back. "CALM DOWN... YOUR FATHER IS NOT IN..."
Kenta kicked Ichigo into his hip as strong as possible. Ichigo was so shocked about the attack and the pain in his hip, that he needed a few seconds to realize that Kenta ran away again. Later rushed away, passed the shocked and terrified people to flee from this mess.
"He is running away!" Kazui screamed and turned around. Just in this moment, a fist hit his face... the present humans start to attack them.
They witnessed everything. Or at least that what they were able to understand and to mention. They were still able to. The spiritual wave over the area vanished quickly, but everyone in the area will be able to see the spirits and the Shinigami for a while now. As well as thier cameras. And these cameras just filmed how Keigo, or Masaru (the people didn't care for his real name) was first decapitated by the Shinigami and than was send to hell by them. And everyone was sure that it was just because they were after the child. The people were full of anger. They were angry because so many people were killed, thier homes were destroyed and about the hell they just experienced. Ichigo mentioned something when he looked into the peoples shocked faces: He just created several hundred 'new Keigos'! People who had to witness the hell without knowing the full truth or beeing able to understand it...
Kazui hold his hurting face, while a man with a shovel attacked him. Ichika had to attack him to stop his attack. A thrown stone hit Orihime's right shoulder. Another one hit her stomach. A man took a gun to shoot on Renji...
The people didn't care for them beeing Shinigami who 'were able to eat thier souls'. They only knew that everyone who weared a black Kimono and a sword, was in some way responsible for this disaster. And so every present Shinigami start to feel the full rage of the humans. Everyone who was able to, used Kidou or his other powers to escape. Ichigo was attacked with a baseball-bat before he reached his family and fled with them... and in the middle of this mess, Kenta managed to escape without beeing seen.
It was a carnage. And Kenta witnessed everything. Ichigo was was pretty sure about that. And he will never ever be able to forgive himself. And Keigo... some Shinigami screamed that he was on the way to the Soul Society now and that it was just a matter of time before he will appear thier somewhere... And they had to go there immediately, too. Because some policeman start to shoot them, too... And because they were still visible for the humans, thier cameras filmed everything and the whole incident was already broadcasted in TV... they were officially monsters again... And it was thier own fault! Just them. It was not Keigo's fault, or Makoto's, or of anyone else in this town... Despite Yupa's loud protests and his attempt to curse Makoto when he was arrested in front of running TV cameras in Karakura... It was over! Once for all...
Kenta ran into the forest, between the trees and out of the burning town... he could hear the gunshots... the screams... the sorrow... he didn't turn around to look what happened... he wouldn't endure it... he just continued running... an so he disappeared in the dark forest... while his burning hometown was devoured by the flames...
Please review and stay healthy!
