Chapter 39: The Fight at the Bridge part 2
Ricky yells as he charges at Soi Fon and swings his sword at her but Soi Fon easily dodge it by doing a back flip. She lands on the ground and creates a pink energy ball with her hand.
She shot the ball at Ricky and Ben and they quickly leapt out of the way. Ben stomps his foot and brought up several pillars but Soi Fon quickly leaps away from them.
"She's too fast." Ben said.
"Of course I am." Soi Fon said as she lands back on the ground. "I'm a Coordinator. Coordinators are humans who possess supernatural powers. That is why normal humans like you don't stand a chance against me!"
"Right, Rukia told me about them back at the train…" Ricky whispered to himself.
(A/N: Readers who have seen 3942: Japan Story Arc Trailer may already know about this.)
Soi Fon holds up her Suzumebachi and yelled, "Sting all enemies!" She charges at Ricky and Ben who both get ready to defend themselves.
Meanwhile, Ichigo charges at Grimmjow and swings his sword at him. Grimmjow quickly blocks his sword with his. Ichigo leaps back and Grimmjow brought his sword down in a powerful slash. Ichigo brought his sword up to block. They glared into each other's eyes as they clashed blades.
"You know, since you are such a powerful Coordinator, you could have joined me. We Shinigamis could need good fighters like you. But you chose to succumb yourself to darkness. Why?" Ichigo asked.
"Because of you! You guys are responsible for the destruction for my home village of Osiris!" Grimmjow replied.
Ichigo widens his eyes. "But we saved that village from pirates!"
"Yes! But your battle cause so much damage to my village." Grimmjow lowers his head. "We are still unable to rebuild the ruins of our village that the battle has left behind. That is why I left my home. To become a powerful fighter." Grimmjow shot his head up and glares at Ichigo. "Powerful enough to defeat you!"
Ichigo aims his sword at Grimmjow and yelled, "Getsuga Tenshou!" The blast of black energy head towards Grimmjow, but Grimmjow creates a ball of fnergy and swings his arm to defelct the energy blast. Ichigo widens his eyes in shock. "He blocked it?"
Ichigo charged at Grimmjow with great speed and swings his sword at it. Grimmjow dodged by ducking and punches Ichigo's stomach with the energy in his fist, sending ichigo staggering back.
Ichigo charges at Grimmjow again, but Grimmjow jumps up and kicks Ichigo's face. Ichigo staggers back and looks at Grimmjow shocked. "It's like you know my moves."
"Yes. I now know your every move." Grimmjow smirked evilly. "During our last battle, my servant Soi Fon was watching and examining the entire fight. She studied your moves and taught me about them. Now that I know your moves, I can finally finish you off!"
Grimmjow charges at Ichigo. Ichigo swings his sword horizontally, but Grimmjow dodges it and kicks his face, sending him sprawling through the ground.
Talim and Rukia watched the fight in shock. Ichigo tries to get up, but Grimmjow kicks his face again.
"Ichigo!" Rukia cried.
"Rukia, go help him." Talim said to Rukia.
"What?!" Rukia turned to her. "But my orders are to defend you!"
"Yes. But you said you want to be a hero like Ichigo, right?"
"Well I…"
"Then go! Be a hero by saving Ichigo. He needs you!"
Rukia narrows her eyes in determination as she nods her head. Grimmjow chuckled as he walks up to Ichigo and puts his foot on top of his head.
"Now, I can finish you once and for all." He creates a ball of energy in one of his hand and lifts it up. "Goodbye, the great Ichigo Kurosaki." He brings down his hand, ready to finish him.
But suddenly, Rukia, in great speed, stands in front of Grimmjow and blocks his hand with her zanpakuto.
"What?!" Grimmjow said in shock. Rukia then knocks Grimmjow back with the hilt of her zanpakuto. Grimmjow staggers back and Rukia points her zanpakuto at him.
"You may now know Ichigo's moves." A smirk then appeared on Rukia's face. "But you don't know…my moves."
"Rukia…" Ichigo said to her.
"Yes?" Rukia asked Ichigo.
Ichigo lifts his head up and smiled. "Go kick his ass."
Grimmjow laughs evilly. "You? A short little girl fight me?! How can you possibly fight against me?"
"Just watch me." Rukia holds the hilt of her sword, with its edge pointing downward. "Tsugi No Mai…" She taps the sword around the floor and ice particles erupted from the floor. After that, she points her sword at Grimmjow and her sword glows white. "Hakuren!"
Grimmjow gasps as the blast of ice head towards him. He jumps up but the blast barely hits his leg. Grimmjow yells as he lands on the ground. He looks at his leg and sees that his leg was frozen up to his thigh.
"I'll get you for this." He said to Rukia as he smashes the ice off his leg.
Grimmjow lungs forward at Rukia and swings his arm at her. Rukia dodged it by leaning to the side. She clashed her sword with Grimmjow's arm and the two locked together and stared at each other's eyes.
Rukia then kicks Grimmjow's stomach with her knee, making him stagger back. Grimmjow gets into his fighting stance again and Rukia swung her zanpakuto at him several times which Grimmjow could barely block them.
Rukia then managed to swing her sword at his face and slashed a cut on his cheek. Grimmjow glares at Rukia while she smirked at him.
"Can't keep up with me?" She asked mockingly.
"Don't be ridiculous!" Grimmjow yelled, creating two huge orbs with his hands. "I'm only going to get stronger!"
Meanwhile, Ben creates a barricade of rocks but Soi Fon was too strong. She charged through the rock, knocking down Ben and breaking the wall of rocks. Ben groans in pain as he fell to the ground.
"Ben!" Ricky yelled. He tries to run over to Ben but Soi Fon was charging over to him and swings her sword at him. Ricky barely blocks it in time. Soi Fon let loose a series of swift attacks that Ricky could barely keep up with. Ricky blocked the horizontal slash and Soi Fon quickly switched and attacked vertically. When Ricky blocked this, Soi Fon slashed vertically again and sliced Ricky across the stomach. Ricky yelps in pain as he fell back to the ground and blood poured from his wound.
"You can't beat me…" Soi Fon said.
"You're…you're right. I can't." Ricky said in defeat.
"Good. Then I'll now finish you!"
"Ricky!" Ben yelled as he watched Soi Fon about to finish his friend.
Soi Fon rises up her Suzumebachi and yells as she brings down, ready to finish Ricky. Ricky shuts his eyes tightly, thinking that he's done for. But nothing happened.
Ricky opens his eyes and lifts his head up. He widens his eyes and drops his jaw in horror. In front of him was Ben. And Soi Fon has stabbed her Suzumebachi at Ben's chest!
Soi Fon then removes her Suzumebachi from Ben and Ben fell back.
"BEEEEENNNNN!!!!!!!!" Ricky yelled as he quickly catches Ben's body before he fell to the ground. He looks at his friend's body in horror. His wound was deep and his chest was bleeding badlyBen slowly opens his eyes and looked at him.
"Ricky?" Ben whispered.
"Ben. Why did you do it? Why do you have to sacrifice yourself?!" Ricky asked as tears start to form in his eyes.
"Because…" Ben placed a hand on Ricky's cheek and smiled at him. "You're my friend. And friends….stick together…till the end…" His eyes then slit shut, his arm fell and his face slump to the side.
Ricky lowered his eyes, a tear trickling down his cheek.
"Was he really that important to you?" Soi Fon asked Ricky emotionlessly as she just watched, not showing any emotions at all.
"Yes. He was." Ricky replied as he closed his eyes. "I'm sorry Ben. I wasn't there for you, when you needed me the most."
