Hey guys I'm back :). Sorry for not updating for a while ^^. This chapter is pretty short because I really haven't had much time to do it what with school and everything. So this is the next chapter of the general. Hope you all like it. Thanks to all the people who faved/followed/reviewed this story :P. Love you all :D
General POV
I appeared in front of the repentance cell.
"Halt!" shouted the guards in front of the cell. "Who the hell are you?"
I rolled my eyes before quickly disabling them by knocking their pressure points.
Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to keep my existence a secret… I'll consider revoking that order some other day. For now I have to visit a certain prisoner sentenced to excecution.
Slipping into the cell, I scowled in annoyance as I felt the seki-seki dampen my power.
Hate that feeling. Right. From now on I'm never going to a seki-seki place again. Hmph.
After my little internal tantrum, I realised the prisoner (what was her name again? Ah yes kuchiki rukia) was staring at me with a strange look on her face.
What?
I was feeling kind of irritated and her look only served to irritate me more.
Ok calm down. Don't go taking your anger out on her. It's not becoming of someone of such high status like you.
I took a deep breath.
"Who are you?" a voice cut through my thoughts. I ignored her.
"Kuchiki Rukia. You have been sentenced to death for transferring your powers to a human, Kurosaki Ichigo. Is that right?" or should it be Shiba Ichigo…
"Yes."
"Hmm… don't you think that's a little too harsh? I mean personally I don't think this warrants a death sentence… maybe a few years in jail, but certainly not a death sentence."
"What's it to you?! You're not an officer of the gotei 13, and your not from Karakura town either. So who the hell are you?" she practically shouted at me.
I winced. "Ouch! That was kinda low. Especially since you don't know me. Well I AM an officer of the Gotei 13 thank you very much. I came just to talk to you coz I'm bored. I'm leaving now see ya."
With that, I winked at her and left the cell, with her staring after me. I could feel her eyes boring into my back. Precisely then, a wave of reiatsu hit me.
Kurosaki Ichigo… and this is the 11th division? Kenpachi… I guess. The captain of the 11th always has that name.
At the same time, there was a spike from the 8th division barracks.
Hmm… Kyoraku… and this is one of Ichigo's friends. His spiritual pressure doesn't even begin to compare to Kyoraku's. Hmph. Wonder if he'll live. Well Kyoraku is pretty merciful. And that guy's pretty much just a kid. He'll let him live. Wait now's not the time to be drifting off thinking about Kyoraku and his crazy antics! I still have a fight to watch! Hope it's not over yet…
I flashstepped over to the top of the steps where Kenpachi and Ichigo were fighting. Ichigo was lying on the ground, obviously defeated while Kenpachi slowly walked away, leaving Ichigo to look at his back. His zanpakto was lying broken next to him and he was in his own ever-so growing pool of blood.
So this is how the fight's gonna turn out huh? Looks like he wasn't so great after all. I overestimated him.
Just then, a figure appeared in front of Ichigo. He was clad in a black amd red cloak and wore glasses. I gasped in shock.
Juda Bach! What the hell is HE doing here?!
I narrowed my eyes. Time had stopped and Kenpachi was in mid stride, while Juda Bach reprimanded Ichigo before pulling him into his inner world.
There's nothing I can do at the moment. I'll just have to question the boy when this thing blows over. Juda Bach… what are you doing exactly? This boy is the result of a union between a soul reaper and a quincy. So what are you doing? I thought you wanted to get rid of all the impure quincies? (A/N I didn't really get all this thig so I'm coming up with my own version of what happened. Feel free to correct me or anything with regards to this thing. Just leave a PM in my inbox :)) what you're doing now goes against what your actions all those years ago… what are you thinking now?
I waited for Juda Bach to make his reappearance. When he finally did, time started moving once more. Kenpachi turned around, only to find Ichigo in a storm of reiatsu, his sword whole again. The most surprising thing was that his bleeding had stopped.
This skill… could it be blut vein? But he hasn't unlocked his quincy powers yet… what's going on here?
Ichigo and Kenpachi continued to fight, while Kenpachi's bloodlust continued to grow higher and higher. He suddenly ripped off his eyepatch, and his reiatsu peaked.
What is this? Don't tell me he was hiding something under that eyepatch… that's just dirty.
Ichigo seemed to have come to the same conclusion as me. "What the hell were you hiding under that eyepatch?" he questioned.
Kenpachi just laughed. "I wasn't hiding anything under my eyepatch!" He laughed insanely before going on to explain how his eyepatch was something that was made to supress his enormous reiatsu.
I merely looked on at the fight, even when they started charging up their reiatsu for one final attack.
Hmm… it sems that this captain hasn't even gotten his shikai yet. I thought he didn't relaease his shikai because he could defeat Ichigo without it, but now it seems like this is not the case. His reiatsu is impressive, but he's working alone, without any help whatsoever. He can't win against Ichigo, who is working alongside his zanpakto, who seems to take the form of the quincy leader. I think his name was Zangetsu? Ichigo is going to win this thing.
It seems I was right after all. Well sort of. In the end, it was Ichigo who fell first, but Kenpachi gave the victory to him before falling alongside Ichigo, his sword breaking in two. I watched silently as Kenpachi's lieutenant took himway to get his injuries healed before I jumped down and met Yoruichi in her cat form.
"What do you think?" I asked her. "He has a long way to go if he wants to rescue that Kuchiki girl from execution. Right now he can't even stand up to some of the captains without sustaining serious injuries, let alone go against all of them in the short time we have left. He doesn't even have bankai."
"Why don't you help him? Call off the execution for a while longer. You have enough authority to override central 46's orders after all. Being the royal bodyguard of the soul king, you answer to no one but the soul king himself. You can do all this so why don't yopu help him?" she replied.
"I have my reasons. Partly because I want him mature on his own, he has a lot of potential and stands to become a great asset to the Gotei 13. If he gets help from me now, he won't be able to realise his full potential as he will always fall back, thinking that he will have help."
Yoruichi nodded in agreemant. "I see your point now. So the thing nhe really needs now is bankai right?"
"Yes. With bankai he should be able to go against most of the captains… if they come at him one by one of course. Which won't happen. I'll see what I can do about that. Bring him to your secret training area and teach him bankai using that weird doll thingy will you?"
"Ok."
"See you then."
With that, Yoruichi transformed into her human form and carried Ichigo off to her secret hidey-hole. I sighed.
Time to clear up the place…
