Chapter 1074 Fallen Bird
I don't own Bleach or any of the powers and gear used in this story.
Leon and the others kept going down the castle, they were at a mine with carts with strange stones.
Leonidas checks them and saw the plagas being stuck inside.
"Wait these are fossils of the plagas." Leonidas said.
"So that's how they got these things." Leon said.
He then gets a call and answers it
Leon then saw Widow. "Good evening American."
"Let me guess, your Saddler's little girl." Leon said.
"Why yes, my name is Widow, did you enjoy the tour of our mines?" She asked.
"Oh just nice, like how you managed to bring backs these old bug fossils." He said.
"Oh you don't have to be mean to them, it took so long to get the plagas." She said.
"Also let me guess your like Salazar with your parasite?" Leon said.
"I have a special one, but mine is better, also tsk tsk tsk, you should not hurt Bitores." She shakes her finger.
"What, he was he special to you?" Leon said.
"He was a very good friend of mine, so I hope the others gut you like a fish." She said.
"Your as twisted as your father." Leon said.
"Why thank you." She ends the call.
The group went foward before the wall behind them got destroyed and they looked to see the Lurching Man came out looking at them.
"Well look who came." Leonidas said.
His brother told him about the creature and it seems it's back.
They shoot at him and they're shots hit him but he regenerated.
"Oh come on." Victor said.
They went to the other side and Victor uses his devil arm Cerberus to freeze the passage.
Lurching Man sees it and goes inside a gap in the floor.
The group went foward and Lurching Man came out through a wall and chases them again.
"Seriously?!" Victor said.
It stretches it's arms at them making Leon duck as he shoots it's head.
It blows up making it dizzy before they went foward and it regenerated.
"Okay, so it needs the head to even see, so we can stun it." Leonidas said.
Judai looks at the creature that was chasing them and it tries to grab Judai, but the young man dodges it and throws a grenade at it making the creature look to see it stuck in it's gut.
It then blows up into smaller pieces.
"Well not what I would have done, but it works." Leonidas said.
"Hey it took it down." Victor said.
"Let's get out of here before it gets back together." Leon said.
The Lurching Man moves around the pieces as it tries to get back together.
Arachne was watching in her room and she frowns. "I hate it when he can be cruel and cute."
The girls were around her and Roma said: "Well that's why we want him."
"It was smarter when we got rid of the other one." Rou said.
"What happened to that Smart Lady woman?" Giraffe Orphnoch asked.
"She went away, but where?" Arachne wonders where she went.
With Hank
He was with Shiori as they walked down the park together.
"You know, it's been a long time we got to go out together like this." Hank said.
"Well, yes." She looks away with a blush.
"Hank, when you became a hero, did you..." She was nervous.
He sighs. "I didn't have much of a choice."
She puts a hand on his shoulders. "It's okay, your always a hero to me."
He smiles at her, Hank then senses danger and grabs Shiori as a explosion happened.
"What happened?!" She got scared.
"Run!" He said and she nodded.
Shiori runs while Hank goes up to the air as a guy with a cloak came towards to attack him.
Hank senses his energy as he blocks a claw arm with his sword. It's a hollow.
Hank backs away and looks at the hollow. "Who are you?"
"You know who I am?" He takes off the hood and Hank got surprised to see Suzaku with half of his face covered by a bird mask.
"Suzaku!" Hank said. "Don't tell me you became a Hollow."
"I came to get you, for what you did to ruin everything." He said.
"What freeing all areas." Hank said.
"You killed many people!" Suzaku said.
"Are you serious, you wanted me to just not fight back." Hank said.
"It's more than that, you took Euphie and ruined her!" He cries out.
Hank looks at him. "I think you got insane becoming a hollow, also I think you should look at yourself since Hollows eat others."
Suzaku charges at him in anger as Hank blocks the claw with his sword, Suzaku attacks him like a wild animal as he tries to hit Hank.
Hank dodges his attacks and summons his lightsaber to hit him away and uses force push to throw Suzaku through the sky.
Suzaku stops and shoots ceros at him but Hank summon his Hollow mask to counter with a cero canceling it out.
"What?! How do you have the same gift?!" Suzaku said.
"Becoming a Hollow isn't a gift, you became a evil spirit, instead of choosing a good path you picked to get revenge." Hank said.
Suzaku attacks but Hank swings his arms making Suzaku get sent down with his body damaged by just the force of his attack.
Suzaku crashes down to the building and he tries to attack but Momo came grabbing him with kido binds.
"I can't let you attack Hank." Momo said.
"No, you must see he's evil!" Suzaku said. "He attacked people and killed them!"
"He's a hero! You let children die!" Momo screams at him and he got shocked.
What Suzaku doesn't know, when he went berserk against Hank, his shots hit innocent people and a child die that day, all because Euphie said no to him.
"No, I would never-" He got grabbed by a whip before his hollow form get destroyed as he was turned into a normal human.
Momo gasps and looks away since it was Sadie that was holding him.
Suzaku looks at her and got scared. "What?"
"Oh good, I wanted to train a new dog." Sadie chuckles before taking him away.
Hank got nervous seeing that as Sadie was disturbing when she gets someone.
Momo goes to his side. "She took him."
"Yeah, let's go." Hank said and they went away.
Hank had to see Shiori to make sure she's safe and he was glad she didn't get injured, but Suzaku in his anger charged foward and just attacked.
He was lucky Sadie came to take him away, despite what she does to those that she captures.
Note: Leon's group evaded the Lurching Man while Hank fought Suzaku who out of rage tried to kill him, but now he got sent to Sadie.
