Bleach Returning War Part 1

Chapter 18 Conclusion! Oscuridad's Final Moments

(New Las Noches – Basement Floor)

"Damn talk about a freaking pain in the ass, I can't believe that bastard arrancar fell down this far, huh, what!?" said Ichigo clearing a path through piles of rubble to find Arruinador then soon found himself overwhelmed by a surge of spiritual pressure.

"Time to die bastard!" shouted Arruinador charging at Ichigo with his sword.

*CLASH*

"So that obviously wasn't your spiritual pressure I felt" said Ichigo holding Arruinador off.

"Afraid not, this spiritual pressure belongs to Oscuridad which can only mean he's gotten serious about finishing the battle with that bitch sister of yours" said Arruinador smiling as he pushed forward.

"Hm, don't give in Karin if I can beat a guy like Ulquiorra then this Oscuridad hack should be no problem for you" thought Ichigo pushing back.

oOo

*Inside Oscuridad's dome of darkness*

"So you seek to defy fear itself" said Oscuridad addressing an already weak and sweating Karin.

"Ya that's right because once someone defies and conquers they're fears they realize there's nothing to be afraid of, take Senken for example he acts like a bigshot but I can guarantee you that once one of us 'pathetic' humans gains the courage to stand against that ultimate power he claims to possess, he'll turn tail and run away cowering in fear of our strength of will" panted Karin getting back on her feet.

"Grg, I'LL SHOW YOU HOW MUCH YOU SHOULD BE AFRAID!" shouted Oscuridad in a sudden fit of rage as he released a wave of dark energy.

"GRAAAAH" shouted Karin in pain fighting Oscuridad's power to induce fear while still standing.

"Here have some more" said a now calm Oscuridad releasing another wave of dark energy.

"GRAAAH, heh not so easy is it Oscuridad" said Karin panting heavily but still remained standing, grinning confidently.

"Hm, alright perhaps a first glance isn't enough to measure the strength of will you humans possess but I still stand by my previous statement regarding Lord Senken, remember I am just an arrancar but Lord Senken possesses the powers of a god" said Oscuridad charging at Karin with claws aimed at her.

"Then come on!" shouted Karin leaving herself open.

*Blood gushes into the air*

"What!?" said Oscuridad in shock band confusion as his upper right and left claws easily pierced Karin's shoulders.

"It doesn't matter if he's invincible, it doesn't even matter that he has the powers of a god, I'll face those powers head on and if I'm knocked down I'll just get right back up to face them again, so do us both a favor and shut up Oscuridad!" said Karin firmly grasping onto one of the arrancar's arms and raised Ryuhime into the air.

"No don't you dare! I AM FEAR ITSELF DO YOU HEAR ME! I CANNOT BE DEFEATED!" shouted Oscuridad in panic as wind began forming around Ryuhime's blade.

"Tenrai Ryukaze!" shouted Karin releasing the blast of wind, engulfing the both of them

*FWOOM*

oOo

*Outside Oscuridad's dome of darkness*

"Dammit how much longer must we wait like this" said an agitated Uryu.

"All we can do is have faith, remember Karin is Ichigo's sister there's no way anyone with Kurosaki in their name would ever lose" said Chad.

"That whole family is wierd" said Renji

oOo

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

"Just die already!" shouted Arruinador in rage.

"You first, Hadō #4. Byakurai" said Ichigo aiming a free index finger at Arruinador and firing a streaming bolt of lighting through the espada's skull.

"Agh, son of a bitch!" shouted Arruinador backing away while holding his injured head

"You've got quite a thick skull that should've killed you so I'm surprised you were left with just a headache" said Ichigo preparing to attack again

"Keep it up you bastard soon I'll show you the terror of my power" thought Arruinador cracking a smile.

oOo

*Inside Oscuridad's dome of darkness*

"Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu, damn you" said Oscuridad touching the large slash wound running across his body then looked at his hand to notice it covered in blood.

"Amazing what a single person can do once they conquer their fears isn't it Oscuridad" smirked Karin.

"Hm, very well it seems you've proven to me that you cannot be conquered by fear so we'll settle this with a test of our raw strength" said Oscuridad lowering his dome of dark energy

oOo

*Outside the dome of darkness begins to disappear*

"Huh, the barrier's lowering but who's won?" asked Renji.

"It looks like neither of them but the espada looks pretty badly beaten" said Uryu as the dome lowered completely.

"Hey guys did I keep you waiting long?" asked Karin still keeping her gaze set on Oscuridad.

"No not at all we were just standing here taking bets on which one of you would come out of that giant egg shell alive, you or ugly over there" said Renji sarcastically crossing his arms.

"Heh, you smartass" said Karin charging at Oscuridad again.

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

"I'm tired of dealing with you!" said Oscuridad taking a swipe at Karin's face with her free upper left claw and attacked her legs with his lower claws.

"Agh dammit" said Karin keeping herself on one knee while holding her damaged eye

"Karin, hold on!" shouted Renji charging at Oscuridad followed by Uryu and Chad.

"Stay out of this you worms" said Oscuridad swiping the air unleashing a small after shock of wind which stopped them in their tracks.

"Damn you" cursed Uryu.

"Let me tell you fools something even if I am defeated my death will mean nothing especially now that Lord Senken has implemented the final stages of his plan to ascend to the throne of the spirit king" said Oscuridad.

"You've caught our attention espada, what do you mean by final stages?" asked Uryu pushing up his glasses.

"I'm sure by now Lord Senken has personally seen to the destruction of the Tenkai Kecchu pillars, returning Karakura Town to it's rightful place on the map and making it a battleground for my comrades to destroy the soul reaper resistance and purge it of it's human occupants" said Oscuridad in a calmer tone.

"So…Then that means that Karakura Town…" said Chad in utter fear unable to finish his sentence.

"Is guaranteed to be destroyed to create the Oken and in the wake of these two coinciding events Lord Senken will march onward to the Royal Palace, kill the Royal Guard and absorb the Spirit King's power and abilities into himself making him the new ruler of all three worlds, beyond that he wishes to see the fear and anguish in the eyes of the lowly humans before they die" explained Oscuridad.

"Damn you, OSCURIDAD!" shouted Karin charging at the espada in a fit of rage.

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

"I'm gonna put an end to you and then I'm gonna make your Lord Senken wish he never met me! I'll be his own personal human nightmare by the time I'm done with him! Tenrai Ryukaze: Torune-do" shouted Karin pushing forward then followed up by surrounding the two of them in a tornado.

*FWOOM*

"Damn Karin's pissed, although I guess it's understandable considering the current dilemma" said Renji bracing himself.

"If what Oscuridad said is true then Karakura Town is in grave danger" said Uryu.

"We have to trust that the other members of the Court Guard Squads will prevent any casualties until Karin can make it there" said Chad.

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

*CLASH*

"Die!" yelled Oscuridad aiming with his top claws at Karin's heart.

"You first!" yelled Karin ducking then swiping at the roots of the attacking arms, cutting them off the arrancar's body.

"Damn" said Oscuridad slowly regenerating them.

"Not so fast" said Karin following up by slicing upwards, chopping off Oscuridad's lower arms and slashing him across the chest and face.

"Grg, it's becoming harder to use instant regeneration, I'll have to finish this quick" growled Oscuridad backing away while regenerating his lost limbs and began charging four cero.

"Come on then give me everything you have! I'm finishing this here!" shouted Karin charging.

"Cuatro Cero!" shouted Oscuridad firing four cero blasts at once.

"Tenrai Ryukaze!" shouted Karin sending her most powerful windblast to counter the four cero.

*FWOOM*

"Huh, where'd you go now? " asked Oscuridad as the dust cleared.

"Look behind you!, Bakudō # 4. Hainawa!" shouted Karin kicking Oscuridad down and pinning him to the floor with kidō rope, then positioned her bankai's blade at his neck.

"Hm, well it looks you've beaten me, don't worry I won't fight back any longer but remember my words to you girl" said Oscuridad.

"Goodbye espada" said Karin decapitating Oscuridad.

"It's too bad I won't get to see the day when you lose everything you hold dear, girl" said Oscuridad in his final moments.

"At last it's finally over, I think it's time I ended this damn farce with Senken once and for all" said Karin with a determined look on her face as she stepped off Oscuridad's beheaded corpse and resealed her zanpakuto.
