Okay so here's a new chapter. I'm going to try and make it longer, but I might have some issues with that. Anyways I hope you enjoy, and tell me what you think. Also Atra and Raven are Twins, but Raven is the older one. Also if anybody is good at drawing, I would mind if they drew Atra, Heather, and Raven. I would like to know how people picture them.
- Line Break-
Atra P.O.V
I was walking down the road looking around. I've only been in Karakura Town for about three days. I've been able to avoid Shinigami patrols, and keep the Spiritual Energy to a minimum. I was getting angry. I hadn't received any word of Raven, and the Hollows were starting to avoid Karakura Town because of me. I sigh looking up at the sky. Storm clouds were starting to gather, but for some reason they seemed to be releasing Spiritual Energy. I tense when the Spiritual Pressure suddenly feels like its crushing me.
I flash step a few feet away, and quickly turn. Standing there staring at me was a woman. She had long blond hair, and electric blue eyes. She wore crimson red pants, and a blue vest. On her shoulder was a tattoo, and I quickly recognized it. "What are you doing here witch?" I question. She was a Witch, one of the races able to use pure magic. They were closely tied to demons and normally a Witch is of mixed blood between a Human and Demon.
The Witch observes me, and a slight smirk appears on her face.
"Its hard to believe you are the younger brother of Lord Raven, your Spiritual energy doesn't even come close to matching his." She tells me. At here my older brothers name, my eyes narrow, and I snarl like an animal.
"What do you know of my brother?" I question. She smirks, and it irritates me. I charge forward, but a lighting bolt come down. Quickly I flash step away.
"You are nowhere near my level little boy. When I was among the realm of Wicca, I was known as the General of Lightning, my name is Heather Thunder." I tense. I've heard of her before. Heather was the leader of the army of the 176th Lightning Platoon, and feared for her ability to make immense storms. I couldn't hold anything back. I knew this.
Normal P.O.V
Atra closed his eyes. When he opened them they were glowing blue, and the Spiritual Pressure seemed to suddenly increase. Negative Spiritual Energy swirled around him. "Drown them in Darkness Kuroyami Urufu." As he said that, the Negative Spiritual Energy suddenly shot up into the air. When it cleared Atra's right arm was surrounded by a black gauntlet. A black katana rested in his hand. Heather watched cautiously, and her body tensed. She was looking into Atra's eyes. They showed nothing, were dim like he was dead.
Atra P.O.V.
I had released the seal on Kuroyami, and wouldn't be holding back at all. I quickly dashed forward, and thrust my sword forward. Heather vanishes in a flash of lightning that temporarily blinds me."Come I thought you would be better then this." Heather mocks. I turn, and swing my sword. She merely raises her hand, and the sword is stopped. "You're going to need a lot more power then that Atra." She explains. I feel anger shot through my body. "I should do Lord Raven a favor and slaughter you much like what he did with your tribe." I froze when I heard her say that.
She merely raises an eyebrow. "Oh, did I struck a nerve." Her lips turn up into a cruel smile. "Do you still remember everything clearly. Remember how your brother slaughtered everyone. How nobody came to help. Do you remember when you were forced to witness everyone you ever loved die in front of you." She mocked.
"Shut Up!" I yell. She merely smirks.
"I heard that you two were close, that your brother loved you among all things. He also told me it was a lie, that you were nothing to him. How does it feel, that you were betrayed by the one person who took care of you? Taught you everything you know?"
It felt like someone was pouring ice water over me. I could see the images playing in my head. Despair seemed to fill me. And all I could think of was how much I wanted to kill him. No, I wanted to inflict as much pain as I could on him. I pull my sword away form her, and quickly it dissipates into Negative Spiritual Energy. Suddenly a black scythe appears in my hand. It seems to gleam with malice, and Negative Spiritual Energy was coming off of it in waves.
"What do you know about anything. I had to watch helplessly as he slaughtered them. That day I desired one thing, and that thing was his death!" I yell.
The Spiritual Pressure seemed to increase to the point that the buildings around me were crumpling to nothing. "I had to watch as that day my world turned to hell. I lost my arm, and Kuroyami appeared before me. Those days of me being that innocent little boy died that day. They vanished when a whole tribe was killed by one of there own." Heather by now was backing up. I could see that her whole body was tense.
I take a step towards her, and she sends an arc of lightning at me. I bring my scythe to the side, cutting it. "You really shouldn't have mocked me, made me remember. All you've done is awakening what I've been keeping chained inside." I tell her. I raise the scythe above my head, about to bring it down. However it's grabbed by a familiar hand.
"It seems you're starting to grow up Atra." A chilling voice says.
My eyes widen at the figure in front of me. He looks different now. His Spiritual Energy was immense more then mine. "Yes, it seems I can't underestimate you Atra." On the lower left of his face is part of a dragon skull. It gleams a sicking red/black color.
"Raven!" I growl out.
He smirks at me, causing my bodies instincts to go haywire. Suddenly, he rips my scythe from my hands. "So it seems to gain power you've begun using Negative Spirit Energy, something forbidden by our tribe. You still haven't learned have you Atra. You should have told the Tribal Elders that your brother had become a Hollow, but instead you had to say nothing." He mocked.
Normal P.O.V.
Atra watched as Raven crushed the scythe with his bare hands. They weren't suppressing their Spiritual Energy, and it could be felt all over Japan. Anger consumed Atra, and he quickly charged forward. Raven dodged, and Atra kept attacking. It went like that for awhile, attacking and dodging. "Is that the best you can do Atra?" He questioned. Atra snarled, he was no longer calm. Instead he resembled a wild animal. Atra kept attacking over and over, but Raven dodged each and every attack. "I grow bored with this Atra." He informed his twin.
Suddenly without any warning Raven delivers a kick to Atra. It's hard enough to break several of Atra's ribs and send him flying into the brick wall. Atra coughs up some blood, and was about to get up. Raven however suddenly appears in front of him, and brings his foot down on Atra's chest. The pain was immense, and Atra screamed. "How does it feel Atra? I could bring my foot through your rip cage right now if I felt like it. However, I don't think I want to yet. No, I won't to hear you beg for mercy before I end your life." Raven tells him.
He applies more pressure to Atra's rib cage, and several more ribs break under the strain. Atra brings his right hand up to Raven's leg, and squeezes, the claws of Kuroyami Urufu cutting through the Arrancars skin. Blood trickled up, and Raven watched in amusement as Atra fought against him. After awhile he grew annoyed with this, and trapped Atra's left arm under his foot. "Let see what happens when I apply to much pressure." Raven says to himself.
Suddnely a sickening sound echos, and Atra's eyes widen then he screams loud enough to shatter glass. When Raven brings his foot back away from Atra, he smiles to himself. "It seems I completely shattered the bone in your left arm. It's at least better then losing your left arm isn't it Atra." He smiles at the tears running down Atra's face.
"S-stop R-Raven." Atra manged to get out.
"Oh you want me to stop? I'm sorry Atra, but that's not going to happen." Suddenly in a flash of white & black light a sword appeared in his hands. The blade was black, and so was the hilt. Black feathered wings enclosed around the hilt of the sword. The end of the sword was jagged, able to rip flesh.
"Perhaps I should take your left arm this time Atra." Atra struggled even more. A burst of Spiritual Energy quickly brought him back on his feet. Black energy started to curl around him. The Spiritual Pressure seemed to suddenly increase, causing large earthquakes that collapsed all the building around him in rubble. "You've finally lost that careful control you had Atra good. Release more of that power." Raven said in a calm voice. Heather couldn't even stand with how heavy it was.
Suddenly a black katana appeared in Atra's hand. Raven watch with a bored look on his face. "Darkness Strife!" Atra shouted bring the blade down. A blast of black energy came out of the blade. Raven watched, and simply moved to the side. The black energy shot past him, and Raven gave a smirk. "Is that all you can really do Atra?" He questioned. Suddenly he heard a loud shrill howl. Quickly he turned around to see the black energy had taken the form of a wolf. It lunged at him, and he quickly dodged.
Shadows began to harden around Raven's sword. "Shadow Slice." Raven brought the sword down onto the black energy wolf. It yelped, and then dissipated. He turned to look at Atra. Raven put his sword away. Suddenly he released all his Spiritual Pressure, and Energy. Atra felt cold, and couldn't move. "This is one of my most useful abilities Atra. I call it Aura of Darkness. It cause pure fear in whoever feels it, unless they have my power." Raven started to walk towards Atra.
Atra tried to move but found that he couldn't. Suddenly he felt a white hot pain in his right leg. He looked down to find Raven's blade had stabbed him. Blood welled up around the wound, and he screamed. "Haven't you ever wondered why Aizen decided to make me an Arrancar. When he had all the forces he needed. It's quiet simple, my power far surrpassed all of the other Arrancars. He never really thought that I even stronger then him. Of course he wouldn't, but then again I could have easily crushed Ichigo Kurosaki if I felt like it. I will show you my second ability Atra, one that you will consider a curse but will give you ultimate power." Suddenly Raven grabbed Atra's throat. A white clay like substance began to come from his hands. It entered Atra's mouth and eyes. Pain surged through his body, and he tried desperately to resist.
It felt like his body was on fire, and being stabbed over and over. Suddenly He was dropped. Raven looked down at his younger twin, and smiled. "You will know that this is both a curse and a gift. You have been giving something that you will thank me for. The power you will gain with this is beyond what you know." He turned around. His eyes looked at Heather, narrowing slightly. "Come on Heather, we have plans." Heather nodded following behind Raven. A door appeared in front of them and they walked through it.
Raven turned around, and watched as Atra crawled towards them, his eyes dull.
"No, come back, come back, don't go Raven, please." Atra whimpered. Raven smirked. Atra still didn't hate him. He would have to think of a way to exploit that. The door shut, and Atra watched as it vanished.
Atra P.O.V.
I collapse. I had lost my chance. Everything hurt, my body felt like it was on fire, and I couldn't move. Whatever Raven had done, had drained me of my Spiritual Power. I felt weak, and sick. I coughed up blood, and some trickled down the corner of my mouth. My vision was hazy, and my blood was starting to mix with the mud. It was raining heavily. I still wasn't strong enough. I could feel several Spiritual Energies coming to my location, but I wasn't able to stay conscious for long.
Normal P.O.V.
Ichigo had felt the spiritual pressure in the air. He quickly began to travel to where he felt it. It was obvious a major battle had happened here. The place was completely destroyed. Ichigo looked around trying to see if there was some evidence around. He heard a groan, and flash stepped over there. He was slightly shocked to find a boy younger then he was standing there. The boy was bleeding, and lying in a pool of his own blood. Ichigo knelt beside the kid.
He was a foreginor that much could be seen. The kid had pitch black hair, and a light brown tan. It was to light for him to be an African, but it was clear that he wasn't Japanese. Suddenly Ichigo's attention moved to the kids right arm. It was releasing faint Spiritual Pressure. He picked the kid up gently, and hoisted him over his shoulder. It wasn't long before he was flash stepping away, hopefully Kisuke would know what to do. He couldn't just let the kid die. Ichigo entered Kisuke's shop, and the other man just looked up.
"Oi, Kisuke I need you to help me!" Ichigo shouted. Kisuke looked at the boy Ichigo was carrying, and hid his face with that fan of his.
"Of course, right this way Ichigo." Kisuke led him to a room, and told Ichigo to put the kid down gently. They then began to heal him.
