"Rise, Karashimo"

A blinding white light shined from my Zanpukuto. I noticed that the surrounding area was covered in thin sheets of ice. By the time that the light dimmed, my Zanpukuto has taken upon it's Shikai's form.

Everything is pretty much the same from the twelve pointed star hilt to the royal purple wrappings around the handle. But there is some noticeable differences. Like the blade for an instance, the sides were covered in black frost. And at the end of the sword was a five link chain that led to a raven feather. The feather looked identical to the ones on Karashimo's wings.

"Ooh, what's this?" asked Akumanome.

"This is my Shikai" I answered. Then I heard laughter.

"That is your Shikai? How pathetic. I've seen much stronger Shikais before. This one is a joke" spat Akumanome. A joke? Who is he kidding? I'll show him what I can do. I ran at him and slashed his arm. But he didn't dodge. I could've been certain that he saw that. I looked back at the hollow and to the two captains. They're eyes were wide.

"Haya, how, how did you do that? That wasn't a flash step" said Captain Hitsugaya in disbelief. Realizing what he meant, I did move faster than I was once was.

"I think it's my Zanpukuto. You see, when she was fighting me, she was incredibly fast" I said.

"I'll show you who's boss" mumbled Akumanome. And he was storing up Spiritual Energy. He was going to fire a cero. Those are very powerful, maybe stronger than a number 90 hado, I have to stop it but how?

"Use Kotta Nisshoku" said a voice in my head. Karashimo, she was telling my to use Kotta Nisshoku. But what does it do?

"Quickly there will be no time before he strikes" Karashimo sounded confident. I took a deep breath and started to store up my Spiritual Power as well. Just before Akumanome fired his cero, I yelled the attack Karashimo told me.

"Kotta Nisshoku!" I yelled and I swung my sword. The frost on the blade broke off and turned into raven feathers like on the wings of Karashimo and they were flying at lightning speed at Akumanome. The feathers all hit various spots on Akumanome.

"What a weak attack. Such a waste of time- what!? My arms and legs! I can't move them!" cried Akumanome. Where the feathers struck I could see a small circle of ice surrounding it.

"Anywhere the feather strikes, it freezes the muscles in that area" explained Karashimo. This gave an opening for the two captains.

"Arghh" yelled Captain Hitsugaya as he flew towards Akumanome. He striked many times at Akumanome before somehow, Akumanome breaks free from Kotta Nisshoku.

"Scatter, Senbon Zakura" said Captain Kuchiki as his sword turned into tiny little blade fragments that look like sakura petals in the light. He swings his sword in Akumanome's direction as his 'flower petals' followed. Cutting Akumanome in various places.

"Aaaahh, damn you Soul Reapers. I'll show you the true meaning of power" and he released all his Spiritual Power.

"Wha-wha't's going on!" I yelled.

"I don't know but something's not right!" Yelled Captain Hitsugaya back. Then Akumanome changed. He no longer looked like a hollow he know him as. He looks so much more terrifying. His horns has grown larger, there were two diagonal lines on his mask, one through the right and one through the left. His mouth was no longer stitched together and Spiritual Power slowly flowed out of it.

"Now, I'll let you taste a little bit of your own death Soul Reapers!" and Akumanome fire a huge cero at Captain Kuchiki, this cero didn't look right. It has a bit of black on it as Akumanome shot it.

The cero moved at monstrous speed and as it flew towards us, I could feel how powerful it was even though I was metres away. It flew closer and closer and we didn't know what to do. That cero is too powerful to block. But then, it flew past me and Captain Hitsugaya. I thought he missed completely but as I turned around, the sight horrified me. It was Captain Kuchiki laying there with a bloody hole through his stomach.

"CAPTAIN KUCHIKI!" I cried. I didn't know what to do. What if he was dead? A million questions flowed through my head.

"I don't believe it. It broke through Senbon Zakura" whispered Captain Hitsugaya.

"Oh don't worry he's still alive, barely. And you'll be in that same state as him soon" crackled Akumanome.

Then I don't know what happened, I just did it.

"Kuroi Toppu" I muttered and the cloud on the sky turned gray as more gathered. All the ice in the area turned into a pitch black snowflakes and they slowly formed around Akumanome. Then slowly, they started to spin around and go around Akumanome. They went faster and faster until they were a blur. It looked like a blizzard.

"You think this could stop me how foolish are you?" laughed Akumanome.

"This blizzard isn't any ordinary blizzard. Once you get trapped into it, you can't get out. No matter how strong you are, you can break through. It's useless" the voice, it came out of my mouth but it was Karashimo's. How can she do that?

"Then I'll be the first!" yelled Akumanome as he fired another one of his cero. When he fired, the cero got caught in the blizzard and spun around with the snowflakes.

"What's going on?" asked Akumanome. I whispered the word that would result the end of that hollow.

"Destroy" and all the snowflakes including the cero flew towards Akumanome. A large boom was heard and large whole was made with Akumanome in the middle. I saw that he was covered in black snowflakes and was lying on the floor.

Dead

"No, y-you ha-haven't won y-yet" stutter Akumanome.

"How are you still alive?" I wondered aloud. As he started to get up but I didn't move. I couldn't. My legs are too worn out to move and my arms are too weak to lift up my Zanpukuto. Speaking of my Zanpukuto, the raven feather at the end, it's almost gone.

"That raven feather shows you how much Spiritual Energy you have felt. Right now you don't have much so it'd be best if you'd conserve it" advised Karashimo.

Captain Hitsugaya put his hand on my shoulder. I dropped down because of how tired my feet were.

"I'll finish him off, you've done well" Captain Hitsugaya walked towards the hole. He lifted up his sword and flew upwards. He flew up until he got a good view of the hole.

"Your attack won't work on me Soul Reaper!" yelled Akumanome.

"Haven't you forgotten that I know your next moves!" continued Akumanome.

"You shouldn't know his next moves" I said.

"What?!"

"The black snowflakes, they disable any special abilities you have" I said in a monotone voice

"What how!" yelled Akumanome. Captain Hitsugaya smirked before attacking.

"Ryusenka!" he yelled as his gave Akumanome his death sentence.

*Time Skip*

"Group C and D go tend to Lieutenants Matsumoto and Abarai. Group A to Captain Kuchiki and Group B to Third Seat Nishimura" yelled the third seat of Squad 4. They've just arrived to tend to the wounded. I was just tired and so was Captain Hitsugaya but I wasn't injured so I brushed off the group and told them to help Captain Kuchiki.

I walked to the spot where Captain Hitsugaya killed Akumanome using Ryusenka. There were ice flowers all over the area. So pretty for such a powerful Zanpukuto. I looked at my Zanpukuto. It retracted to it's sealed state now.

"Just how powerful are you, Karashimo?" I muttered.

"Third Seat Nishimura!" yelled a member from Group A.

"Captain Kuchiki would like to speak to you!" sighing I nodded and walked towards Captain Kuchiki's tent. Opening the door I saw him there laying down with bandages wrapped around his abdomen where the cero hit him.

"Come here" he gestured. I slowly walked over to him and crouched down so he can see me. Then he did something that surprised me. He smiled! Not only that, I saw tears starting to form in his eyes. What on Earth would he be so happy about?

"I found you, Haya" he said. Never have I been so confused about three simple words.

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I have found my missing daughter"
