Chapter 13: Grimmjow Vs Kenpachi, Round 2

Grimmjow stood there in his new form, surprising everyone around that felt the energy coming from him. Even Kenpachi was surprised by this new form in front of him, but that surprise turned into a grin as he took his jagged sword off his shoulder.

"So you got a new form eh?" Kenpachi started as he flared his own energy into the air. The yellow energy formed a skull with a sinister feel to it. Kenpachi ran as fast as lightning towards the still espada and went for a downward slash.

To his surprise, he hit Grimmjow but something was wrong. Very wrong. When his blade connected with said espada, Kenpachi realized that Grimmjow just faded away. Suddenly, the captain of squad eleven felt a powerful kick to his right side that sent him flying away from that area. Before he could gain his bearings from the attack that even he couldn't immediately recover, he felt another kick to the small of his back, sending him upwards. Kenpachi once again tried to regain his bearings yet again, but when he actually was able to stop himself, that was when Grimmjow showed himself in front of the shocked captain. Grimmjow's piercing blue eyes stared at the captain with clear rage and bad intention as he cocked his clawed fist back and let loose on the captain. Kenpachi hit the ground hard as a large amount of dust and debris flew into the air. Grimmjow stood on solidified air as he looked down at where the captain should be. He didn't even look tired all things considered, as he looked down with a hateful glare on his pale face.

"Get your ass out here, soul reaper." Grimmjow said lowly with quiet rage behind his voice.

As if on cue Kenpachi's energy spiraled up high into the air as his pressure was released in droves. Grimmjow felt the energy and scoffed as he heard the laughter of the captain below him. The air cleared to reveal Kenpachi with a few bruises, but nothing too major. He looked up at Grimmjow and his mad grin came out once again.

"Is that the best ya got espada!" He yelled up at Grimmjow only to see him fade out of existence. "Huh?"

That was all Kenpachi could say before Grimmjow appeared in front of him and delivered a devastating punch to the captains chest. Kenpachi was pushed back a considerable distance, but when he stopped he grinned and dusted his chest off.

"That's it?" He boasted to the still cold faced Grimmjow. "You get this new form and you can't even do more than push me bac-" suddenly Kenpachi starts coughing up blood, lots of it, and the areas on his body that were hit earlier now had deep slash marks on him. Kenpachi dropped to a knee as it all hit him so suddenly that he didn't even know what was going on. Before he could do or say anything else, Grimmjow was once again in front of him.

"When you tried to hit me earlier," Grimmjow started, "all you touched was an afterimage." Grimmjow pointed his clawed finger to Kenpachi and a black cero with dark blue highlights around it started to form. "Nobody is taking Neliel away from me. Not you, not your head captain, not even God himself will take away someone truly precious to me!"

And with that, Grimmjow fired his cero. The explosion and the beam of energy was massive as everyone in the area stopped and saw the beam in the air along with the decrease in Kenpachi's energy. Neliel went wide eyed as she quickly rushed over to where the man she loved was. She made her way over in a sonido just as the energy was dissipating to see Grimmjow standing tall with the captain in his clawed hands. Grimmjow held Kenpachi's charred body by the throat and dropped him. Miraculously, Kenpachi was still breathing, but only barely.

"Heh." Kenpachi started weakly as he could feel himself being brought to unconsciousness. "Looks like I got beat pretty badly." And just like that, Kenpachi was done. Not dead, like Ichigo told every arrancar to do, but close enough that he wouldn't be able to get up.

"Grimmjow?" Neliel started, getting his attention.

Grimmjow smiled at her and changed back to his regular form. He took a quick glance at Pantera in his hand, hearing the panther chuckle in an approving tone, before sheathing it to make his way towards his mate. Even though this war was not over yet, he at least had the one person that made his life meaningful in his arms at this very moment.

Made this one short to move along with the story. Yes I made Grimmjow dominate Kenpachi and it seemed ridiculous, but it makes a lot of sense to me that Grimmjow's Segunda Etapa would be ridiculously fast like this.

Anyway, next chapter will be Ulquiorra and Nnoitra vs. Kyoraku and Ukitake.

Ya'll are awesome and as always, stay sexy out there,

PEACE!
