When school was over everyone walked back home. As Angel and Chad were walking home they senced that someone strong was following them. "Do you sence that Tora.......that strong spiritual pressure" Angel asked. He nodded his head yes. "We'd better be careful and keep out guards up" He said. "Right" She replied. Just then they felt the air around them become very cold. "What's happeneing.......why does it feel so cold all of a sudden it's spring time so it shouldn't be this cold" Angel thought as she looked around seeing nothing but a fog of ice. Just then she senced something coming at her so she dodged it.....but just barely as she saw that her uniform was slightly riped. "Stay together Tora we shouldn't get seporated at times like this" She said to him. "SHOW YOURSELF" Angel demanded. An Arrancar came from the fog. "you're very smart for an ugly angel you actually knew of my existance even before I decided to attack you" She said as she clapped her hands. "Who are you and what do you want" Angel demanded. "I am Privaron Espada, Arrancar number 108, Myukai Naromo and I'm just here carrying out master Ulquiorra's plan.............to destroy the Substitute Soul Reaper and his friends" she said as she began to attack Angel. "Tora.....please stay out of this fight.......I don't want you to get hurt" Angel said as her wings appeared infront of her protecting both her and Chad from Myukai's ice attacks. His eyes widened. "but Angel you'll be killed..you're not strong enaugh to take her one alone" He said. "I'll be alright.....Don't worry about me" She said as she looked at him and smiled. just then an icicle zoomed past her cheek cutting it slightly, but she stoped it from hitting Chad with her wing. "Awwww The poor little birdy can't fly no more now that her wing's been injured" She said. "I don't need to be in the air just to beat you.................YOU GOT BAD AIM FOR AN ARRANCAR YA OVERGROWN ICE SCULPTURE" She taunted. "Ohhhhhh You're gonna regret saying that to me" She said as she summoned a staff made entierly of ice crystals. She began chanting some words as Ice worriors came up out of nowhere surounding Angel and Chad. he Summoned his El Directo. "I'm not letting you fight alone Angel.....I've faught with this kind of Arrancar before and they're strong.........it was hard even for me to beat him" He said as they were back to back. She looked over at him. "fine you can fight with me........Just don't get too badly injured alright" She said. He glanced at her and nodded his head yes as he smiled. "Same to you Angel" He said. just then they seporated and the fight had begun. "RUN UGLY ANGEL RUN RUN TILL IT KILLS YOU" Myukai said from the air as she then began to attack her. "ANGEL LOOK OUT" yelled Chad as he saw Myukai attacking her. Angel looked up to see Myukai heading twared her at a tramendus spead that she had no time to dodge. Myukai came down hitting the ground creating a crater as smoke appeared surounding it. "I killed her" She said to herself. "THINK AGAIN ARRANCAR" Said Angel as she attacked her from behind. "WHAT" Myukai said in surprisement. "Just before you attacked I grabed her just in time therefore dodging your attack" Explained Chad just before he attacked her. They finally defeted her after a while. She disappeared heading back to Las Noches. "Arrancars....here....this isn't good" Chad said to himself. Just then he fell to the ground with a loud thud. "TORA" Angel yelled as she ran over to him. "Tora are you alright" she knelt down becide him. "Are you alright" he asked avoiding her own question. "Tora you big goofball......I'll be alright but it's you I'm worried about Look at you........I guess this is what you get for being reckless" She explained as she kissed his wound on his face. "How is....Your wing" He asked. "it's not bad it's just frozen that's all" She said as she looked at her left wing which had ice covering it. "As long as your not hurt that's damn good to me" He said. "Come on ya idiot....let's heal those wounds" She said as she helped him up and walked him tward their appartments.
"I guess you know huh....about who I have to protect" She said sadly. "................Maybe I do" He said as he smiled. "Alright since you think your so smart tell me who is it that I have to protect" She asked as she crossed her arms. he sat up but with some stuggle. "Oh no you don't YOU are still too injured to even move ya big mass of iron" She said as she laid him back down. "Why.....Why do you have to....protect me" He asked. She sighed. "......for most reasons unknown.....but I know at least three of them.......look I'm protecting you because I have to and I don't want you to get hurt or killed alight there are people like me that care about you get the picture" She said as she looked at him. He looked at her then nodded his head. "Now get some rest I'll bring in the first aid to fix you up....for now you just sleep for awhile and regain your energy.....you had a rough day" She said as she got up and walked out of his room. When she shut the door behind her she leaned aguinced the wall in sadness. "What kind of Guardian angel am I.......I mean he protected me.....he shouldn't protect me I should be the one protecting him" She thought as tears formed in her eyes then she went to go find the first aid kit. Chad looked at the door. "Look the angel doesn't have to always protect her human......sometimes when it can't be helped the human has to protect his angel" A small voice was heard from Chad's window. he looked over an noticed that it was Rosa. She waved. "Dang dude you sure got a bad beating.....tomarrow's the day she has to decide huh....before her sister leaves" She said. He looked off to the side in sadness. "Look she said that she didn't want to be too far away from the person she's protecting right....meaning she doesn't want to be too far away from you.......but what she really ment is that she doesn't want to be away from you at all.....and you already know the reason why so don't even dare ask me that got that" She said. He looked at her with wide eyes then looked off to the side again. He sat up but with some struggle. "I thought that what she said..........Was a lie" he said. "of corse not....She loves you more then anything.........she wants to be with you to protect you from hollows, arrancars, hey even espadas.....but she needs you to protect her from the Grim reaper even when she doesn't know it yet.......Even when she says that she doesn't need protecting she's lying....She needs YOU and ONLY you to protect her..........She grows stronger with each passing day and one of these days she WILL find her and if she gets the chance She WILL kill her with no hesitation......even if she is her best friend" She said. his eyes widened. "Her best friend.........Wait you don't mean......but wouldn't she have killed her already since they've been friends since they were little" he asked. "back then she was hesitating and there was some type of spiritual pressure that prevented her from trying to kill her........It was coming from Angel but.....it wasn't her own spiritual pressure.....When you moved back to Mexico you gave her some of your spiritual pressure to protect her while you were away eventhough you never realized it.....that's anouther way on how she survived the car crash her and her father were in eight years ago............Gotta go.....Just thought I'd tell you........Oh I forgot something........the time for the greatest battle of everyone's lives comes nearer and nearer.......when the grim reaper even tries to kill Angel....that's when the battle will begin" She said as she jumped onto the roof then flew back to Urahara's shop as Angel came back into the room with the first aid kit......but she was crying. "I will never allow her to hurt my beautiful Angel........no matter what it takes.........I will protect her with my life" He thought as he watched Rosa jump onto the roof.
"I found the first aid kit" She said as she walked over to him not realizing that she still had tears in her eyes. "Your eyes........You're crying" he said. "No I'm not" she said as she blinked. but when she blinked a tear rolled down her cheeck. He wiped the tear with his thumb. "Then why are your eyes wet" He said. "I'm fine really" She said as she bandaged up his arm and stumich. "........I'm worried" he said. "Worried about what" She asked as she looked at him. "....About you.....With this Grim Reaper around who knows when she'll attack you............I don't want you getting hurt.....She could attack you at any day or any moment if we don't have our guard up at all costs" he said worriedly as he looked at her. "Look I don't want you getting into my battles ok....she's my opponant....not yours, not Ichigo's, not Rukia's, not Uryu's, not Renji's, not Orihime's No one's but my own...I can handle her on my own.........And I don't want either of you getting hurt because of me.....I don't know how I could live with myself if something were ever to happen to you or the others......especually you Tora" she said as tears formed in her eyes but tried to hide them from him. He looks at her then notices her tears as one rolled down her cheeck making it sparkle as the light reflected off of it. He gently grabed her arm and pulled her to him holding her tightly in his arms. "I'm not letting you fight her alone that's what she wants you to do.....Who knows what could happen......but no matter what I won't let you fight this battle alone....we'll all help" He explained as he looked down at her. She looked up at him as tears rolled down her face. "But I ha-" She said before she was interupted. "No buts Angel.....If you fight this battle alone then sure enaugh she will kill you with no hesitation" He said. "I can take care of myself Tora.....I'm not some child that has to be protected all the time......becides I'm suposed to be protecting you not the other way around" She said. he looked at her then kissed her forehead. "It can be both ways depending on which one of us is in trubble" He said. She blushed at what he had just done then burried her face into his smooth and muscular chest as she began to cry. "I just don't want you to be involved with my battles Tora...........I don't want you getting hurt" She said as she cried. "Angel........I'm already in your battle......I'm in it to protect you......I'm in it to try to keep you safe from her no matter what now quit arguing with me" He said. She looked down. ".................Fine but PROMISE me that you WON'T get hurt as serious as you did in the last battle" She said as she looked back up at him. He looked at her then put his forehead on hers as their noses touched. He smiled then gave her a tiny peck on the lips making her blush madly. "I promise" He said. She looked into his eyes as she noticed that he was telling the truth as a tear rolled down her cheeck then she hugged him tightly. He did the same. "Why is it that whenever you're with me.....you make me feel like there's nothing to worry about" She said as her crying began to ceace. "cause for right now......There is nothing to worry about" He replied. "Of corse there's something to worry about and that's you and your wounds just look at you.......You look like you got ran over by a semi and then went flying through the trees finally hitting one five miles away from where you got hit" She said as she got up and continued bandaging his wounds. He chuckled. "I'm alright.....it doesn't hurt as much as it did a while ago" he said. ".........Yeah but you still need to have them bandaged before they get infected" She said as she looked at him then looked back at what she was doing. He looked at her and smiled.
That night Chad was sleeping in his bed while Angel was in her room thinking. "Hmm....tomarrow's the day I have to decide on where I should stay.......either in the Soul Society or stay with a friend" she thought. just then the door opened. "Aunt Angel momma told me to say goodbye tonight cause we have to leave tomarrow morning" She said as she climbed on her bed. "Tomarrow's the day you have to decide on where to stay.....I already have this appartment in the market the owner's gonna sell it starting tomarrow at noon.......don't worry I already paid the last bill" said Maria as she walked in the room. "I'm not sure where I wanna go....I don't wanna go to the soul society cause I don't want to be too far away from Yasutora" She said. "Then stay at his place I'm sure he won't mind at all in fact I'm sure that he'd love to have you there with him he must be lonely staying at that appartment by himself" Said her sister. Alejandra laughed softly. "You wish" She said. "Shut up it's my decision" She said. "We know it's your decision.....we just want you to make the right decision" Maria said. "What's that suposed to mean" Angel asked. "You'll know when the time is right..........Hitsugaya and Rangiku are coming tomarrow evening for your decision" Maria said. "How do you know" She asked. "Because Rangiku and I are like best friends" She said. "WHAT no way" she said in suprisement. Maria nodded her head yes. "it's true lright just ask Rangiku when you see her tomarrow" She said. "Whatever............listen.......What's gonna happen to my things tomarrow.....like my piano" She asked. "You'll find out after you decide on who you're gonna live with....Night sister" she said as she walked out of the room. "let's go Alejandra it's time for bed" she said. "Ok coming mommy" Said Alejandra as she hoped down off of Angel's bed and walked out of the room fallowing her mother shutting the door behind them. Angel smiled and looked outher window looking at Chad's window. Then she remembered about what he had done that afternoon. She touched her lips gently. "Why.....did he kiss me" She thought. Just then she heard soft, gentle, calm, and quiet snores coming from Chad's room. She smiled once more as she looked at him. "He's so adorable when he's asleep" She thought. She yoaned then climed underneath her covers laid down and closed her eyes as she went to sleep. "I'll see you in the morning.........My Tora" She said quietly to herself. The next morning Chad woke up to a bright shiny day, but then he remembered what today was. "She decides today" He looked over tward his window and looked at her calmly sleeping in her bed. He smiled. Just then he saw someting reflect from the sunlight shining into her room as it beamed down just below her eyes. "What's that" He thought as he got out from his covers and looked at her. "Is she.....crying" he said quietly to himself as he Jumped from his window to hers to get a closer look. He landed on her window seal with a light tap barely making a sound. He walked over to her then he bint down to where he was eye level to her as he noticed the tear. "She's breathing normally....and yet she's crying in her sleep" He thought. He wiped the tear away with his thumb. Seconds later she woke up. When she opened her eyes she looked at him, but then covered her face under her covers. He smirked. "That's no way to greet a friend" he said as he uncovered her head. "Why are you here" She asked. "I saw you crying in your sleep....and I wanted to know if you were alright" He said. "I'm fine and I wasn't crying" She said. "You were crying in your sleep that's why you say that you weren't crying............Did you have a bad dream" He asked. "No.......I just didn't want Maria to leave yet...................They left early this morning.....And today's the day I have to decide....and I haven't decided yet....And once when I leave here for school I can't come back cause this will no longer be my home" She explained as she began to cry. He got up picking her up bridal style along the way then he sat down on her bed then laid her on his lap and hugged her gently. "It's your decision on where you want to live until Captain Hitsugaya can find this Grim Reaper........He said that living alone isn't an option" He said gently. "My sister says that I should stay with you.....but I'm not sure if that'll be possible" She said. "it is possible.....but like I said......it's your decision.........Come on we Should get ready for school" He said as he set her down gently as he got up. He walked over to the window again and Jumped on the window seal. "See you in a little bit......right" he said as he looked at her. She looked at him then smiled as she winked with her left eye while she stucked out her tounge a little off to the right side at the same time giggling lovingly. "You know it big guy" She said. He smiled then jumped back to his window. After when they both got dressed and brushed their teeth they headed out the door. They met eachother outside their appartments and they both walked to school together as always. Angel Reached into her bag and braught out two warm breakfast burritos. She handed one to Chad. "here ya go I figured that you didn't have breakfast so I heated one up for you eat up before it gets cold" She said as she took a bite out of her own. he looked at her then smiled. "Thank you" He said as he gently took his burrito out of her hand. "Carefull big guy it's hot" She said just before he took a bite out of it. He burnt his tounge but showed no pain. "I warned ya big guy" She said. by the time both of them had gotten to school and finished their burritos there was fifeteen minutes before school started. "I guess we came here a little too early didn't we Tora" Angel said. Just then they heard a hollow's cry. "A hollow" Chad thought. "Aw man so early in the morning" Said Ichigo from behind them. "Would you quit whining and turn into a Soul Reaper already" Said Rukia. "No need Rukia I'm on it" Said Angel as she ran off tward where the hollow's cry was heard.
"A-Angel come back" Chad said as he ran after her. Ichigo tuned into his soul reaper as did Rukia and they fallowed them. "Oriheme Stay here alright Uryu make sure she doesn't leave your sights" Said Ichigo just before he ran off. "Right" They both said at the same time. "Angel Where are you going" Chad asked. "To cleans the hollow Where else silly" She said happily. "But Angel Your wounds haven't completely healed from that arrancar fight yesterday" He said. "My wounds are of no importance it's yours I'm worried about so you should stay out of this one" She said as she saw the hollow infront of her. "Let us take care of it Angel you and chad should get back to school" Said Rukia. "I heard you say 'arrancar'......they're still not gone.....even after we killed Aizen" Said Ichigo. "She was a Privaron Espada...................A strong one...............she said 'Master Ulquiorra' before both of us faught her.......we didn't kill her so she disappeared back to Las Noches" said Chad. "Ulquiorra's still alive huh........figures I shoulda killed him when I had the chance" Ichigo said. "It's her......She's back" Said Angel as she felt a familier spiritual pressure. just then she heard a familier laugh. "I'm back you Ugly Agnel and I'm back for REVENGE" Myukai said as she appeared through a cold mist that suddenly surounded Ichigo and the others. "Stand your ground Ichigo.....She creates this mist before she attacks" Angel Said as all four were back to back. "Alright.......Here's the plan we'll attack as teams once when the mist clears Rukia and I will attack first Then You and Chad will go up from behind her and attack her then" Explained Ichigo. "Here's the thing the mist is always here untill she's defeted therefore we can't even see our own hands even when they're up to our faces" Said Angel. "damn....what'll we do" said Ichigo. just then Angel felt an ice dart scratch the side of her face. "hurry she's attacking" Said Angel as she grabed her halo. "Her spiritual pressure.......it's a whole lot stronger then when Tora and I faced her yesterday" She thought. Just then she had an Idea. "ICHIGO.....Try to sence her spiritual pressure then try to find her by using that....wherever her spiritual pressure is she's there too It's stronger then last time so it shouldn't be too hard" She said. "Great idea Angel" He said as he senced for her spiritual pressure. "BANKAI" ichigo yelled as he turned into Tensa Zangetsu. "Awsome I wish I had a bankai and a Shikai" Angel said. "You do have your own Zanpakuto but Angels don't call them Shikais and bankais.......When you're in your angel form with armor that's your Rookai-shi, Rookai for short it's like a Soul Reaper's Shikai......But you won't be able to release your Zanpakuto untill you've reached your bankai-like stage" Rukia said. "You know more about me then I do myself So I guess I'm already in my Rookai-shi huh" Angel said. "not quite you don't have your armor yet cause you're still a beginner guardian angel" Rukia said. "Are you guys gonna talk all day or are we gonna fight" Myukai said starting to get angery. "If she would just tone down the cold mist so that we can at least BARELY see her we can" Angel said to herself. "What don't tell me that you, an angel, is getting cold because of some lauzy mist huh" Teased Ichigo. "WHAT No....Angels don't get cold because of their beautiful wings" She said. "Bautiful I say she looks like an ugly Grim Reaper with wings an a halo that's too stupid to know just what in hell she is exactly" Said Myukai as she laughed. Chad's eyes widened then looked down in anger, his face tightened, as he clinches his fists tightly. Then his arm turned from it's second form to it's third form, Gigante. His left arm turned into Del Diablo. "Chad.....what's up" Said Ichigo as he was about to walk over to him. "Stay back Ichigo" he said angerly. "Tora.......What's wrong" Angel asked as she tried to walk over to him but he gently pushed her away. "Please....stay back.......let me handle this" he said as he scanned the air locating Myukai's shadow above him at two-o-clock. He jumped into the air and hit Myukai in the stumich with his La Muerte. grabed her by the collar of her outfit. "Never call my Angel an Ugly Grim Reaper ever again" He said angerly just before he punched her with his Del Diablo. Myukai hit the ground with a loud bang as white smoke appeared around her. Chad landed with a tap behind Angel and the others covering his eyes. Ichigo and Rukia both stare at him freaked out by his reaction and what he had just done. "DUDE YOUR SPIRIUAL PRESSURE WENT OFF THE CHARTS.........But I guess that's what happens when someone offends the guardian angel that you love like that" Said ichigo in surprisement. Chad looked at him with his eyes still covered. Angel looked at him and smiled. Just then Chad was hit by a powerful attack that came from the smoke. he went flying accross then hit his back aguinced the side of the school. blood rushed from his forehead as he caughed out blood. "TORA" Said Angel as she ran tward him but then was attacked by Myukai's most powerful attack........."Ice glacier" which made Angel freeze in her tracks as she was surounded by a large glacier of ice. (As you would see in the Artic Ocean) her eyes were wide looking at Chad. "Well that takes care of that ugly bird.....WHAT" She said as she smiled widely but then saw Angel's eyes started to glow. Te ice around Angel burst into tiny peices. When all the ice droped to the floor Angel was waring a shiny pure red, black, and white armor around her body and on the top of her wings holding a Zanpakuto but her halo had disappeared. "No one hurts my Tora like that....NO ONE" She said as her eyes were still glowing as she started to attack with her Zanpakuto in hand. She stabed her Zanpakuto into Myukai's chest and she desinagrated transforming into a white hell butterfly as it flew twards the Soul Society. "Nikaku.....Konara" She said just before her Zanpakuto vanished turning back into her halo and fell to the ground her wings spread out, but one of her wings was touching one of Chad's feet as her wing started to glow healing his wounds on his body but leaving one wounds on his face.
"The Angel has finally grown her true wings.......and yet she is the first angel to go streight into her Nanukai-shi without even going into her Rookai-shi" Rukia explained. "She's a powerful one" Said Ichigo. "She said....."Nikaku Konara just before she fainted and changed back to normal.....that must be her Zanpakuto's name........but I feel like I've heard it somewhere before" Rukia explained. "We should get to class before we're late school starts in three minutes" Said Ichigo. "Right.....but what about Chad and Angel" asked Rukia. "Let for now let them be it's alright if he skips at least one class today I'll just tell the sensei that he got hit with a weight ball on his way to school.....as for angel just tell the sensei that she was helping him with his wounds that he got from the weight ball" Ichigo explained. "Ok whatever you say Ichigo" She said as they walked into the school. Chad woke up a few minutes after Ichigo and Rukia left. "Wha-What happened" He said as he rubbed the back of his head. He looked at his hand and noticed that there was blood on it. he looked infront of him and seen Angel in her usual human form but with her school uniform covered in her blood as well as Myukai's blood. "ANGEL" He yelled in surprisement as he crawled to her. He picked up her head and back and held itclose to his chest. "Angel....Angel Wake up please" He said as he gently shook her. Just then he heard the bell ring. "Angel please wake up" He said as he started to get worried. just then he started to feel her spiritual pressure slowly rising. He looked at her. "Angel.....Please wake up......I don't want to loose you" He said as tears formed in his eyes but hid them. "......Ya big idiot.....Angel's don't die..............as easily as others think" She said slowly and faintly as she gently and slowly opened her eyes. She looked at him then smiled as she giggled weakly. "Quit looking at me like I've died already........I'll be alright.......idiot you promised me not to get hurt" She said as she put her hand on his cheeck where one of his wounds was. He smiled then hugged her tightly as he cried silently. "I'm just glad you're alright Angel" He cried. He may not show that he's crying....but she knew that he was. "This wound in my stumich.......it's nothing compared to the wounds you had on your body......but somehow I can see that they've disappeared" She said as she looked at him. She's sees the tears rolling down his face eventhough he's trying to hide it. She dried his tears with her thumbs then hugged him tightly no matter how much her wound ached. She gently shushed him. "It's alright I'm here" She whispered as she hugged him tightly, gently stroking his hair. She looked at her hands noticing his blood. "Awwww you poor thing you hit your head pretty hard didn't you" She said as she dried his tears as they continued to fall. She kissed the wound on his cheeck as it began to glow. "Listen......I heard what you said to Myukai....Sounds like someone finally snapped" She said as she giggled a little. "I couldn't allow her to call you an-.......an ugly grim reaper........you're not ugly and you're not a grim reaper.................You're a beautiful, sweet, talented, smart.....And a very loving angel....................That's why I had to do something about it................I heard what you said to her as well...just before you killed her" He said as he looked at her. "Hey hey hey I didn't kill her Angel's don't kill they cleans" She said. he smiled then hugged her. "Right" he said as he smirked. "come on we should get to class" She said as she started to get up but was swooped off her feet as Chad got up holding her bridal style. "Not untill after we get that wound of your's fixed. "hey we still need to get your facial wounds fixed as well........And when I say we....I meant me since I DO happen to have the "Angel's kiss" and it happens to work on only ONE person.........and that person is a cirtin someone that's big, muscular, Adorable, and fun to be with" She said. He thought acting like he's still trying to figure who she's talking about. She sighed then gently grabed his face with one of her hands and kissed his lips Which made all his facial wounds plus the wound on the back of his head and the blood disapear. "it's you silly....the big and muscular part shoulda gave it away" She said. He looked at her somewhat surprised of what she had just done but hid it as he smiled. "I know.....I was kidding.......I've always known who you were talking about" He said as he chuckled. He smiled then kissed her. "So I guess yoiu know what I ment on what I said to Myukai huh" She said when they broke the kiss as she laid her head on his chest. "Like I said.........I've always known" He replied. "And how have you ALWAYS known" She asked. ".........That I'll tell you.............Anouther day" He said as he laughed. He took her to the nurse then after words they went to class. "You feel embarassed huh" She asked. He looked at her. "What do you mean" He asked. "You know....you don't want anyone to know about what happened.......if you don't want to show it at school we can hide what............'we' are untill you get home" she explained. ".....A little" he said. "We can still act as if we're friends at school and around town" She said. He looked at her and smiled then they both walked into class.
