The morning was slow and empty, Sayuri had paperwork to deliver to her Captain and hoped that this wouldn't be a long visit but any amount of time in his presence was horrible for her. On her way she had felt Zaraki's spirit pressure begin to rise, she knew instantly that he had found what he had been looking for. She was angry and jealous and her pace quickened, she got to the door and went to bang her angry fists against it but then she realised the quietness around the whole area, she couldn't feel her captains presence and the errie setting caught her on edge. Her hand tapped softly at the door anyway and when no answer came she pushed the door aside, she peered in and went to put the paperwork on his suprisingly neat desk. The silence wrapped around her and she was getting a warning from her zanpakto.
Her personality flickered to her darker state and turned to observe the room, but there was nothing strange or out of place. Sayuri slipped back out quietly and turned only to meet the horrid grin that haunted her, she held her breath as he took a step closer to her "Ah, how rude to go inside a captains office without consent" she struggled to find her words and they came out stuttered "you see Sayuri, we told you too stay out of it but snooping around my office, that was a step out of line" Sayuri took a step backwards and gulped, his aura was becoming darker and reaitsu was rising slowly. "I'm arfraid that death is the onlyu punishment i'm willing to give"
Sayuri moved quickly out of his way when his katana was swung at her, he followed her and took another swing. She moved again but he caught her cheek, she was too shocked to fight back but she had no choice as he became quicker and his attackers more frequent, she wasn't ready yet to pull out kyoki's first form yet. She was only blocking his attacks for the moment and trying to do her best at running away from him "don't worry, i'll make it quick, you won't feel a thing. Or you can fight back and try to get a few more minutes of life left" the cruel darkness in his voice was beginning to stir something inside of her. But she lost her footing slightly, his katana pushed straight through her upper arm, Sayuri cried out not giving him the delight of seeing her face as she did. Sayuri could feel Kyoki inside of her head 'fight back already! Let out your anger!' the darkness was creeping over her as she blocked another attack, her golden green eyes looked up at him and shot back a grin to him "really? because if i'm going to die, you are too!" Sayuri screamed swinging her sword finally attacking him, she laughed as he took a small step as she attacked again. Sayuri wanted this man to die, and she wanted him to die by her hand, her own reiatsu began to rise.
"You finally found the nerve to stand up to me, how cute" his taunts only spurred her on more, she managed to slice his arm and her grin could only get bigger. But things were getting serious, he was getting quicker and his attackes heavier, she had a few more scrapes on her. "Scream! Kyoki!" the flash of light sent Gin backwards and she managed to block his elongating katana. As the fight began to get more dangerous and more blood was spilled Sayuri's true darkness began to show.
They both stood away from eachother panting, they had almost as many injuries as each other. But it wasn't over yet "do you remember little Sayuri, when she tied to protect you, her aim was terrible as she tried to attack me, such an easy kill, almost worthless. Did you really think that she could kill me, let alone all three of us hmmm" Sayuri could flashes of her sister cross her mind "Don't talk about her like that!" She growled at him "you even followed us, only to freeze when you found us" Sayuri was becoming more angry with each second "shutup!" she couldn't help but remembering her sisters face. Something was burning deep within and it was growing, getting hotter with each word that left his mouth. His next attack was quick and spiteful, her stomach was ripped open making her fall to her knees "hmmmm, how funny that both of you die by the same sword" he wasn't paying attention to her and couldn't tell the power that began rising within her. It was becoming bigger and bigger and by the time he was about to strike his final blow she snapped, Kyoki changed to his newly found form. Sayuri striked at him ripping five jagged lines down his chest and punched him knocking him backwards, she kept striking at him again and again not letting him get any attack in, but he was strong too and he managed to kick her away from him and he sword stretched and pierced straight through her chest.
Sayuri couldn't breath and everything was turning black, she screamed loudly as the sword was pulled away from her chest, he walked slowly up to her and looked down at her "It's a shame really, you could've been very helpful" she couldn't even speak but found a small ounce of strength left in her to grab his shoulder and pierce her spikes straight through him. Sayuri smiled and dropped her hand listening to the groan of pain, glad to atleast left her mark of her own accomplishment. She fell down and closed her eyes letting herself slowly drift away, she could feel the pain with every breath. 'I wonder if Zaraki won his fight, I hope so, he should win, he's the strongest man here' Sayuri smiled to herself and rolled herself over to look to the sky 'maybe i'll see Ren-chan again' she couldn't stop the tears that followed down her cheeks 'Maybe i'll the scientist man again, and the princess, or maybe i'll just be gone, finally at peace with it all, no more worries' Sayuri couldn't feel anything now, her whole body was numb, she couldn't even feel the fading sun shine down on her. She was slowly losing herself in her mind, thinking of everything that had happened in her life, hoping that if she was let go there would be no more madness.

Captain Unohana sighed as she came across Sayuri, she was almost dead but she was smiling and crying "she looks so strange like that" Isane said looking down at her "no one even felt her reiatsu rise, this doesn't explain what happened" Captain Unohana picked up her limp body "whoever did this knew how to mask such a great battle, she fought well, Isane go get a bed ready I must heal her quickly" Isane flash-stepped away and Captain Unohana was close behind trying to be careful of Sayuri's severe injuries.

"Say-chan!" Sayuri recgnised that voice but couldn't tell where it was coming from "Say-chan, wake up" everything started to become clear and she found herself looking at a woman who radiated beauty. She recognised the long black locks and the creamy white skin, Sayuri felt her breath catch in her throat when honey-coloured eyes locked onto her own. "R-ren-Chan?" she giggled and reached her hand down to her pulling her up to her feet. "So I really did die?" this caused Ren to giggle again "Of course not, you're strong, i'm not going to let you die" she said kissing Sayuri's forehead. "So why am I here?" she said tilting her head to the side only noticing she was stood on a beach with the waves hitting her bare feet. "Because you needed me" she stated.
Ren only left Sayuri more confused well that was until she was approached by a large siberian tiger, it rubbed it's soft head against her and gave a loud rumbling purr. "This is Kiiran, he was my Zanpakto, now he just lives here with me" Sayuri didn't know what to say but stroked the tigers head feeling the softness of his fur. "where is here?" Ren turned back and looked at me "That's a secret" she winked "it's been hard hasn't it, with out me" Sayuri sighed and walked away from the water and sat down on the soft white sand, Ren sat beside her and looked out at the sea. "Yes, but I guess i've made some friends so its not all bad" Ren smiled at her and stroked her hair "why did't you grow out your hair?" Sayuri shrugged "It's better short, it's not easily grabbed then" "so who's Zaraki?" Sayuri looked up at her big sister with bright red cheeks "How do you know i've been talking to him!" she hoped she didn't know too much of her thoughts of him Ren only grinned down at her "I know alot of things, I'm suprised at both of you to be honest, it wasn't something I was expecting"
Sayuri looked away from her knowing she thought too much of Captain Zaraki, and hoping Ren didn't know that much "It's ok, but I think he can also help you" Sayuri then remembered about his battle but Ren beat her to that thought "He's alright, well he's as beat up as you but he's ok" sayuri let out a sigh of relief amusing her sister. "Theres also something else I need you to do, Aizen is still alive and he's going after Rukia, something she has Aizen wants, don't let him get to her" Sayuri nodded. If Ren asked her to do something she was going to do it, but something inside of her was warning her about this. She was scared of Aizen "You'll stand up to him, I kow you will" Ren kissed her forehead again and pulled her close Sayuri held onto her fiercely "Don't worry, now you must go, you've worried a few people" Everything was beginning to fade and Sayuri tried to hold on for just a bit longer.

Sayuri gasped feeling the pain return to her body, she opened her groggy eyes and found herself in one of the rooms in squad 4's territory. "good morning Sayuri, how are you?" Sayuri welcomed Captain Unohana's voice and turned to her "Stiff but ok" Unohana smiled and checked over Sayuri "Are you up to visitors?" Sayuri nodded and was suprised when Yachiru waltzed in sitting on her bed "Scruffy-chan! You're awake!" She gleamed. "Me and jiggle's were worried!" Rangiku walked in with a worried look on her face "What happened?" Sayuri wasn't sure what to say.
"Girls, after such traumatic injuries her subconcious has erased the horrid event so I would refrain from asking such questions" Unohana said giving a quick wink towards Sayuri and left the room. "So when do you get out of here?" Yachiru said "I'm not too sure probably in a couple of days" Sayuri shrugged "Who am I supposed to drink with until then!" Rangiku pouted "No one else is available!" Sayuri sighed and shook her head at her. "Well maybe you can get some of that paperwork done" Sayuri said cheekily. Sayuri was glad Unohana had lied for her but she had a feeling that Unohana might know. "Why did you have to fight at the same time as Ken-Chan!" Yachiru joined in with pouting "I wish I could've watched you, but Ken-chan was having so much fun!" She said giggling. "It's ok, I'll have many more fights so you can watch them" She was glad to just relax for a little while.
They talked for a while but Yachiru soon left going off to see Zaraki, and Rangiku's captain found her ordering back to the office. Sayuri lead back and looked out of the window thinking back to Ren. She smiled to herself felt her heavy lids close catching a bit of peace before she went back into the storm of chaos that awaited her.
