We all launched into battle. Each of us begining to fight one of the Alpha Knights. It seems that each member has their own unique fighting style. Because I have fought Sachi before, I am familiar with his fighting style. Emiko fights with a spear, Sachi throws knives, Kishi is an archer, Bert is surprisingly an old martial artist and the other girl, whose name is Amaya, specializes in sword fighting. Their attacks are different, unlike us soul reapers who attack with swords unless we use the powers of our shikai.
"Is that all you've got, girl? You've gotten weaker," crackled Sachi as he threw knives at me, nearly stabbing me before I swipe them away with my zanpakuto.
"Shut up!" I yelled as I struck at him. My Zanpukuto clashed with his knife and he began pushing agianst me with surprising force for a twelve year old. As I continue to push back, I glance at the other fights. Yugana seems to be holding up well against her opponent and Kyoto is trying hard against Amaya the swordswoman. Shuhei is barely holding up against Kishi since she's an archer who's better at long range attacks. Captain Hitsugaya isn't doing very well because Bert is an martial artist and seems to be able to deflect his sword without problem.
"If you keep spacing out like that you're going to die!" shouted Sachi. I gritted my teeth and jumped back. I panted, trying to catch my breath. I need to bind him but not now, he could break out of it.
"Say, Soul Reaper. You know my name but I don't know yours. Care to tell me?" asked Sachi as he twirled the knife between his fingers, a wicked smirk playing his lips.
"Haya, Haya Kuchiki. And it'll be the last name you'll ever hear!" I shouted back as I went in, striking at him with deadly accuracy. Sachi dodged all off the attacks I threw at him, laughing as he did so and pissing me off.
"Haya, watch out!" yelled Yugana as Emiko launched at me, her spear poised to attack. Now I have to fight Emiko and Sachi? Man, this is getting very troublesome.
"Haya you take care of Emiko I'll fight Sachi," Yugana said as I began fighting Emiko.
"Oh, you have some skill young Soul Reaper. You know, I was wondering what Soul Reaper blood tastes like!" yelled Emiko as she jabs the spear at me. In the distance I can hear Shuhei releasing his Zanpukuto into it's Shikai.
"Reap, Kazeshini" shouted Shuhei. I know he tries not to use his Shikai often because he doesn't like it, but in this case, he has to use it because his Shikai is good in long distance and short distance sttack patterns.
Going back to my own battle, Emiko is very skilled with a spear. Knowing how to use the whole spear not just the tip, jabbing at me with silver point and batting me with handle. Her fighting style reminds me a lot of a certain Squad 11 bald guy. Anyways, I was barely keeping up. Every time I tried to attack she'd block it and uses other end to jab me in the stomach.
Then, being fed up with getting beat up by a spear, I decided to take it to the next level.
"Rise, Karashimo!" I said and my Zanpukuto changed into it's Shikai. The surrounding was coated with a thin layer of black frost. Including a bit of Emiko's spear.
"Wow, some sword you have there" said Emiko, analyzing me. "But's it's not good enough to keep you alive!" She yelled, charging to attack. But when she clashed her spear against Karashimo, the part where they clashed started to freeze and black ice began to coat the area.
"What?" said Emiko as she jumped back, examining her spear.
"Hmm, this is new. I believe only Zanpukuto and Soul Reaper made weapons don't freeze on first contact. Your spear was made by humans," I concluded, causing Emiko glared at me.
"No Haya you're wrong. It doesn't matter who made the weapon, it depends on the material. If the material is some sort of metal like copper and steel, they won't freeze upon first contact. But wood and plastic will freeze on first contact like the handle of the spear," explained Karashimo in my mind. I guess I was wrong then.
Emiko watched as the black ice slowly covered the wooden part of her spear.
"Hmm, interesting, but it's no use!" yelled Emiko as she pulled out the tip of the spear. When she pulled it out, it became a simple dagger. She got into a fighting stance before snarling at me.
"Your tricks won't fool me girl" said Emiko as she attacked me once again. Her attacks gained more efficiency and the speed at which she threw her self seemed to rise to inhuman levels. I grit my teeth as she came up behind me.
"Kotta Nisshoku!" I shouted and swung my Zanpukuto. The frost covering the blade breaks off and turn into sharp raven feathers. Emiko managed to deflect one and dodge another, but two other feathers made contact with her body. She cried out in surprise as they made contact with her shoulder and her knee. The feathere turned to ice and coated that part of the body.
"Ha ha, nice trick but that's not going to work" laughed Emiko. The dagger in her hands erupted into flames and the ice on her body melted off of her.
"What, no way! That's-that's impossible!" I shouted in surprise, my eyes widening..
"Well what did you know? I just did the impossible" said Emiko as if she were bragging. She attacked me with her flaming dagger, making the frost on Karashimo regenerate slower than usual.
"Dang, this is the type of power Yugana would excel at fighting against. Especially with her Zanpukuto," I muttered as I tried my best to dodge her attack.
Meanwhile, the battle with Captain Hitsugaya is not going in our favour. Bert effortlessly did a side kick fake out and punched Captain Hitsugaya in the gut. Steadying his position, Captain Hitsugaya went in for a counter attack, raising his zanpakuto and swinging down quickly. Bert dodged the attack and kicked Captain Hitsugaya in the face.
"Captain!" I called out.
Captain Hitsugaya quickly recovered, managing to dodge Bert's next attack.
"I'm fine! Worry about your own battle," grunted Captain Hitsugaya as he was punched yet again. Man, martial artists are annoying.
"Did you hear that? Your Captain said to 'worry about your own battle.' You should listen to your Captain!" shouted Emiko as she elbowed me in the gut and pushed me against the wall.
"Say bye bye, Soul Reaper!" yelled Emiko.
Just as she was about to jab me in the chest, she was knocked back as a new person entered the battle.
"Roar, Zabimaru!" A large extendable saw comes out and hits Emiko square in the chest.
"Ugh, what is this?" asked Emiko. I looked behind me to see Ichigo, Orihime, Uryu, Chad, Renji, Father, Captain Ukitake, Captian Kyoraku, and Nanao.
"We thought you guys might need a little help," said Captain Kyoraku in his pink kimono and straw hat. Where his fashion sense comes from is beyond me.
"Scatter, Senbonzakura," said Father as he held his Zanpukuto upright and the blade turned to millions of razor sharp flower petals. The millions of swords flew towards Bert and knocked him down to his knees.
Captain Hitsugaya looked pretty beaten up, but thanked father for help and got ready to fight his next opponent.
"Who are you guys?!" question Ichigo.
"Not this again," I hear Sachi saying.
"We are the Alpha Knights," answered Emiko through gritted teeth.
"Well congratulations, because you guys are going to get your butts whooped" said Ichigo.
"Bankai!" yelled Ichigo.
What is this kid thinking? Unleasing his Bankai already? Well help is help and I can't argue with that. I just have to accept it now and continue fighting against these Alpha Nights.
