Perfection

Chapter Eighteen

"Ah! Look, Uryuu! There's a chamber right there!" Orihime ran towards a small chamber in the distance, still pulling Uryuu by his hand. "Do you think Kuchiki-san is the--"

CRASH!

"Damn. I missed."

Orihime stared wide-eyed at her almost-attacker. Uryuu had her in his arm, just like how he did when they were in Seireitei, his dark blue eyes narrowed down to slits, his lips forming a firm line.

"U... Uryuu..." Orihime stammered, as she gestured for him to let her down. He didn't get it.

Or maybe, he just didn't want to let go.

"Heh. What's wrong? Afraid that I'm gonna take your woman?"

Uryuu's frown deepened. "Who are you? Judging by your appearance, you're one of the las incógnitas."

"Hmm?" he raised an eyebrow and swung his blunt blade edge to his shoulder. "Don't anyone ever told you not to judge a book by its cover?" he smirked.

Uryuu didn't reply. Instead, he tightened his grip on Orihime's shoulder. She cringed as the pain slowly rose up her limb, but chose not to mention it to Uryuu. Her bright brown eyes rolled to the sight of her almost-attacker, observing his appearance. He had a bright yellow hair which flows down to his back and a pair of dark purple eyes that seems to be able to see through anything. His tanned skin go along well with his white garment, which is tattered and ripped here and there. The dark brown sheath of his sword is besides his right hip, tied with a black tattered sash.

'He must be a left-handed person,' Orihime thought after observing him carefully.

"Hime, are you okay?" Uryuu asked, with his eyes still pinned to the opponent.

"I—I'm fine, Uryuu. You can let me go now if you want," she answered. Uryuu agreed and let her shoulder go. She gave him a small smile which he didn't seem to notice.

"I'll ask again, who are you?" Uryuu re-asked his question, his narrow blue eyes not blinking for even one second.

The opponent smirked.

"I believe it's my right whether I am to say my name or not. Am I right?" he swung his blade down, pointing it at Uryuu. "Now... Shall we start?"

Uryuu nodded slightly as the luminescent blue glow spread out of his amulet, forming a web-like bow on his right hand. He quickly swung said hand to the left, so that it faced his opponent.

"We shall."

CLANG!

Renji grimaced as he jumped out of the way, evading Alerta's sword just in time. Her cold ice-blue eyes pierced his as he landed five feet away from her. She quickly retaliates and charged at him, gritting her teeth together as she does so.

Renji readied his stance, the released form of Zabimaru in front of him, ready to battle against Alerta's katana. He gritted his teeth and moved forward, making his chance of winning this clash bigger.

CLANG!

"You insolent fool! No one talks about Aizen-sama that way!" Alerta forced her katana on Zabimaru, who in turn, bared its fang. Renji, noticing the slight enhancing of power from her side, force Zabimaru forward and pushed her back.

Alerta's feet made a little friction before she leaps up to the air, pulling her right hand, along with the word, back.

Renji kept his stance and brought Zabimaru to his face to defend him, but just before Alerta's katana collided with it, she disappeared.

SLASH

Renji felt the pain shot up his back and quickly turn around and slashed the air in front of him. Sensing that she's nowhere near him anymore, he took a moment to breathe and savor the clean air around him.

Warm blood flowed down his wound, which spreads halfway across his back diagonally. The cut is quite deep, it's deep enough to make him gasps for air in desperation as his eyes searched around for a familiar figure.

"Behind you."

Renji turned around and slashed Alerta's with Zabimaru. Her eyes widened as she quickly stepped away from Renji, her left hand holding her fresh cut.

"Not too shabby," she commented.

Renji grinned, still taking short gasps to breathe. "Why did you warn me back then?"

Alerta raised an eyebrow as she tightened her clutch on her katana, compensating the pain she felt on the right side of her stomach. "What... warning?" she said as her breath is getting shorter.

"Rukia! Where are you!" Ichigo ran down the pristine white hallway, following Rukia's "faint" reiatsu. "Ruki--!" he stopped his sentence as something piqued his interest.

He just passed a colossal white double-door that was on his left side. He took a few steps back and pushed one of the doors open, revealing a laboratory that was so complex, it might even beat Mayuri's. An ample ball was located in the middle, black was its colour. From the center of it, white-lightning is thundering and it occasionally managed to slip a few of its essence outside, before disappearing completely right away.

Ichigo walked towards the black sphere, his hand reaching out.

'This feeling... it's... familiar...'

"Ichigo?!"

-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-'-.-

Sado turned around, observing the quiet serene surrounding carefully. His opponent has yet to reveal himself and Sado doesn't want to take any chances. Blue reiatsu oozed out of his right arm continuously.

Abrumadora grinned. "Well, isn't he an interesting one."

Sado quickly fired El Directo towards the whisper he heard, which was on a tree top. It hits right on target, revealing a small figure behind a misty yellow shield.

Sado narrowed his eyes on the said figure. As the shield slowly disassembled into million of little glass-like pieces, the figure stepped out of his used-to-be shield.

"We finally meet," he grinned. His short midnight blue hair slowly rustled by the soft wind, his eyes revealing no evil. He has no weapon whatsoever with him. For a moment, he actually caught Sado off guard.

He jumped down of the treetop and reached his hand out, waiting for Sado to take it. Sado hesitated.

"Well?" Abrumadora asked. "Aren't you going to take my hand and shake it?"

Sado shook his head calmly.

"Well, that's too bad. I really wanted to know your name..." he took his hand back to his side.

"Before I kill you."

He vanished from Sado's sight in point one millisecond. Sado sensed his reiatsu from behind him and blocked his attack.

"A quick one also, I see," Abrumadora grinned sadistically. Sado noticed that the kind glimmer from his eyes vanished, an atrocious glint replacing it. Abrumadora jumped backward and landed softly on the swampy ground, making a little ripple in the water.

"Where's your sword?" Sado asked.

"Sword? I have no use for such things," Abrumadora answered nonchalantly before leaping up to punch Sado again.

Sado launched another El Directo at him and this time, Abrumadora had no moment to prepare his yellow shield.

"AAARRRRGGGHHH!!!!" Abrumadora screamed as the blast of reiatsu hits him directly.

Sado quickly develop his Brazo Izquierda del Diablo.

"La Muerte."

Abrumadora collided with Sado's right fist and hit the swamp. As his back touched the ground, a big mark of skull appeared on the swamp. The impact is not something anything can survive, not even Espadas.

Sado landed on the ground with a small splash. Small drops of sweats flowed down his face as he tries to control his breathing.

After his breathing calmed down, he calmly walked towards the white castle, slowly turning his arms back to normal.

"Don't tell me that you actually thought that I was dead."

Sado eyes widened before he felt a kick to his face. The impact of said kick send him through a dozen trees and into the shallow water.

Abrumadora crossed his arms together, waiting for Sado to come back up. His wish was granted. Sado stood back up in less than 15 seconds. The shock is still written clearly on his face, but he already turned both his arms into Brazo Derecha de Gigante and Brazo Izquierda de Diablo.

"How... Are you still alive?" Sado asked as he wiped the red blood that was trickling down the corner of his mouth.

"Haa..?! What do you mean by that? I switched soul, you idiot!" Abrumadora yelled in an obvious tone.

"Switched... soul?"

"Yes! For goodness sake! Didn't you notice that I act differently?"

"... Yes."

"There you go! It's as easy as that!"

"So... Does that mean I have to... defeat you again?"

"..." a sour look was drawn on Abrumadora's small face. "Well what do you think, smartass?"

"I'll take that as a yes," Sado charged forward and punch Abrumadora's flew back, but recoiled before he hits a tree, putting his feet onto it and using the tree as a jumping board.

Sado brought his Brazo Derecha de Gigante and blocked Abrumadora's kick. Then, he punch him with Brazo Izquierda de Diablo and Abrumadora conflicted with the ground.

"I'm sorry," Sado said quietly.

"Sorry, my ass," Abrumadora swiped Sado's legs with his, making Sado tripped sideway. Abrumadora managed to land a kick on his side stomach, sending him flying about 20 feet away.

Abrumadora stood up and dusted his white garment. "Is that all you got? If it is, you're pathetic."

Sado lie down, taking his own sweet time for a moment. From what he have seen, the kid is boastful and will probably not come here before saying a whole mouthful about how pathetic Sado is. Sighing, he managed to get up and cracked his fists before walking towards Abrumadora.

"So, you're not as pathetic as I thought you were," Abrumadora smirked mockingly.

Sado shook his head to the sides slowly.

"Alright then, let's end this," his smirk turned into a sadistic grin. His right arm is enveloped in yellow reiatsu that flares up to the sky, resembling a fire.

"... Okay," Sado passively agreed, and put all of his reiatsu to his right arm. "La Muerte."

Both let out a yell of war before colliding their fists against each other. A massive amount of reiatsu going against each other at the same time, creating a huge explosion of blue and yellow reiatsu.

As the smoke calmed down, two figures was seen standing. The smaller one had an odd grin attached to his face.

"Sorry, Ichigo..."

Sado fell down to the swamp and passed out. Abrumadora grinned got even larger before he managed to walked away.

"Seems like I've wo--"

Before he finished up his sentence, Abrumadora coughed up a large amount of blood. He quickly brought his hands to his mouth, trying to prevent more blood coming out, but it is to no avail.

"Wha—What's happening?" Abrumadora looked at his body. His eyes widened as he discovers that a skull-shaped emblem has been imprinted through his stomach. Blood oozed through his deep wound as he coughed up even more.

"This... cough... can't be... cough... happening!" he said in between the fit of coughs.

"Heh, turns out that I'm the pathetic one, huh?" he whispered hoarsely as he fall down with a thump onto the swamp before disintegrating into thin air.

"I'm sorry, my lord..."

A/N: Sorry for such a sucky battle! I just need to clear them up one by one! And I'm also sorry for the crappy chapter! I'm sorry!

One question, though...

IS THERE ANYONE WHO IS OOC?

Please answer this question, I really need to know...
