Shigeru nudged Abarai's ankle with his head, "Hey... undo this...! What's... going on!" Abarai barely spared him a fleeting glance before going back to resuming his careful watch of the void over them, "No can do. You'll just run away. And I can't tell you. It's classified information... but I'm sure you'll see shortly what that entails." The rest of the shinigami had their backs turned, strangely still. All heads were raised above and hands positioned near their zanpakutos. It looked like they were waiting for something, Shigeru thought, but for what? |

Kai got back to his feet and picked his Zanpakuto up and gripped it tightly in his hand "I refuse to believe this...." Gen smiled as he looked at Kai "Do you want me to tell you why they gave you your powers back?" Kai instantly lifted his head up "They wanted to use you to do their dirty work for them, so they wouldn't have to lift a finger" "SHUT UP!!!" "Run from the truth all you want, but that is why they gave you your powers back..." "SHUT UP!!!! SHUT UP!!!! SHUT UP!!!!" Kai held his blade in front of him and pointed it right at Gen "ENOUGH OF YOUR LIES!!!!" He placed his free hand on the top of the blade "BANKAI!!!!" God i fet so good to say those words again... A huge flash filled the area as rieatsu exploded around Kai, causing a huge gust of wind which Gen stood through. Kai then stood there with his all white outfit. His jacket had slightly changed, now having white belts go around his waist diagonally over each other. The two long tassels dangled off the end "I've had enough of you and your lies...." "They are not lies...I believe I am proof enough of what I'm saying" The final battles seemed to be upon us....and maybe some questioned would be answered... |

The void completely shattered due the raw power of Kai’s reiatsu. Shigeru looked up in horror. No way! That dimension was supposed to be impenetrable, inside and out! He couldn’t have destroyed it that easily! “Wha… what!” Jakoby had joined the rest of the Shinigami – all were oddly silent as if awaiting a sign of judgment. It all came down to this. Either way… Someone’s blood was going to be spilled tonight. |

Silence ensued as the two fighters found themselves once again in free air. Gen looked around, not quite believing what had just happened "Wow, to have the power to break out of our own little fighting space...increbidle, K-man doesn't mess around" Kai glanced over at the group of Shinigami, something burned deep inside of him as he did though, it wasn't the normal happiness he felt when he saw them, had Gen's words got to him? He looked back at Gen and brought his blade down by his side. The white blade gleamed from the bright sky that was above them "This is going to be the end Gen, you hear me" "Hey, I just told you the truth, not my fault you chose not to believe me and went off on a rage" Kai clenched his fist, this was seriously going to be the end and he wasn't going to stop until he was sure it was the end, plus the counter was now up to 4 on the K-man chart Both Gen and Kai got into got into fightng stances. Vance swallowed as he anticipated what was going to be a thunderous fight, but he also felt uneasy "This is it....."
Kai bursted forward, shooting a few light waves at Gen. Gen teleported out of the way of them as he zoomed towards Kai. they clashed and sent an almighy shockwave through the entire area. Leaves wer completely blown off of the trees due to the force and the ground crumbled beneath them. They pushed each other back and then went striht each other again, kai deflected Gen's attack and hit him with a punch to the face, or so he thought when Gen had caught it before it could hit him. Gen threw him back and then followed up with a violent swing, which Kai managed to dodge out of the way of. Gen fell forward, missing his target, and Kai capitalized and went for a stab down. Gen flipped the rest of his body over and Kai missed him and stabbed his blade into the ground. He pulled it out as it erupted with light energy. Kai was pissed, and it showed
He zoomed at Gen once again and swung for him. Gen stepped back and was constantly dodging all of the high speed slashes Kai went for. They got into a lock and pushed each other back. Kai shot off a few light waves at Gen who chopped them all in half as they went off into different directions. Gen burst off the spot and went straight for Kai and steel met steel once again. There was a high speed clash once, with several loud bangs ringing through the area. Everyone watching was in awe ofwha they were seeing. Blood shot out from one of the fighters and rained down onto the floor. Kai held his shoulder, that was his blood "Rage...you are feeling deep rage aren't you?" "Shut...up..." "Anger is burning deep inside of you, isn't it?" "I said...." "Resentment....you resent those damned Shinigami, don't you?" "....SHUT UP!!!!" Kai's rieatsu went through the roof once again, making a huge crater where he stood. Gen knew he was getting to him and he knew that what he said was getting through to Kai as well....and he enjoyed every minute of it
Kai got back to his feet, his white jacket now stained red, and held his blade to his side. Gen's voice was starting to irk him and he wanted to get rid of it. Thoughts were going through his head about what Gen had said, was it true? No, he refused to believe it still, he would ask them about it when he was done with this fight. Gen looked at Kai and instantly vanished from view. Kai twisted around and blocked the attack from behind and pushed Gen back. He ran after him and went for a string of attacks, which Gen blocked. They both swung violently and ended up making each other spin around, due to the force of their blades meeting. They came out of their spins, both going for an attack and their blades met again. There was such a force from both of their attacks that gusts of wind and lightning dropped from the sky with each hit. Both fighters were giving their all and in their Bankai states, it meant their powers were incredible But like all good things...they must end some time....
Gen looked at Kai and smirked as he breathed heavily, he knew he met his match with this fight, but that didn't meen he was going to just lay down and die "Why must you refuse to believe what I say?" "I'm not going to judge too quickly, I'll ask them about it" Gen let out a little chuckle "What, so they can feed you more lies? OPEN YOUR EYES KAI!!!! I AM PROOF THAT I AM TELLING THE TRUTH!!!" Gen did have a point, he was a Shinigami, so they may be some truth to this, but no, not yet, he refused to believe it just yet. Kai shook his head, he was going to finish this fight and then ask the Shinigami "Fool...you look the truth right in the face, yet still you deny it" He rushed forward and slashed at Kai, who blocked the attack by holding his blade in front of him. He pushed back Gen as he held up his blade into the sky "It's time to end this Gen....it really is" Gen looked at Kai and held his blade in front of him, he was ready for anything "Shimmer....Eiyuu" His blade then turned into light and hot up into the sky, to the clouds above and parted them, radiating light from above. Kai brought his blade down and it was now literally a blade made from light. Kai then pointed it at Gen and instantly vanished from sight. Gen's eyes widened as he felt pain in his side and blood shot out of it. He fell to one knee as Kai appeared in front of him, pointing his blade down at him, inches from his face "Goodbye Gen...and hope I bever see you ag----" Kai was pushed over onto his back as Gen stood back up and he looked at Kai, laughing "Oh, you thought you had won did you? I'm sorry, but it's not that easy" Gen held his blade in front of him, pointing the blade upwards "I'll show you a trick shall I? Divide...Duodecim" A command? Seriously? Duodecim then began to shrink in size and from it another blade was formed. Gen ripped them apart from eaach other and held them both out to his sides. Two blades were in his hands and they were a lot longer and thinner than what he did have. Kai got back to his feet, I believe this fight just got a lot tougher for him...just when he thought he had won "Come on K-man....show me what you got now"
Gen dashed forward, swinging wildly with both of his blades. Kai ducked in and out of them constantly as the swipes got faster and faster. He noticed that one blade was black and the other was red, was there any significance to that or was that just for show? Kai jumped back, getting a swipe in the cheek for his troubles
"Come on, you're not even trying!!" "Shut up...." Kai vanished again, planting his sword at Gen once again, but Gen blocked it with one of his sword and then swiped with the other one. Kai jumped back, dodging the blade only just. He then zoomed forward and swiped at Gen, flashing past him. A moment of silence ensued as the scene seemed like it was at a stand still. Then the colour of red exploded onto the scene and Gen fell down. His eyes widened, he didn't even see that one
Gen slowly fell down to the ground onto his knees, clutcing his side, still barely knowing what hit him. Kai levitated above him, blade pointed high into the sky "Goodbye Gen..." "K-man....don't....we can...take them....on...together....THEY BETRAYED US BOTH!!!!!" "Light from the skies above, rid everything from this place
The whole area was bathed in light as it compressed down on everything. Gen's screams could be heard from the thick layer of white the filled the area. The light vanished as quick as it came and Gen was gone. Kai landed back down onto the ground, back in his normal form and fell to one knee "You can't...call...me K-man...anymore...." |

It was over. It was finally over. The row of Shinigami turned to leave the area, their mission seemingly accomplished. It seems that more blood wouldn’t have to be shed after all. …or at least that’s what they thought. There was a piercing scream that grabbed everyone’s attention. “YOU BASTARD! YOU BASTARD I WILL KILL YOU! HE WAS MY FRIEND AND YOU KILLED HIM – YOU KILLED HIM!” It was Orochi, sans one arm and covered in blood. Face contorted in anger, he let out an enraged yell and leaped at a surprised Kai, who had barely had time to turn around. This was it, he was going to make him pay for what he did! His zanpakuto came down and connected with – Someone else. Orochi’s mouth dropped in shock. “Th-that was a killing blow you idiot…!” It was Izumi, standing in front of Kai. Orochi’s sword had pierced through her chest, missing her heart narrowly. She coughed up blood and gave Orochi a shaky scowl. Orochi yanked his sword from her chest, outraged. “MOVE IZUMI! NOW! I HAVE TO KILL HIM, I HAVE TO –“ “NO!” Izumi screamed, “WHAT WILL THAT DO, OROCHI? HE COULDN’T BE SAVED! GEN WAS FAR TOO CONSUMED BY REVENGE TO BE SAVED! THIS WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN AND YOU KNOW IT! Just… Just STOP! It’s… it’s not worth it… it’s not worth anymore blood-shed. Just stop.” Tears cascaded down his face and he began to sob as he fell to his knees. Rain began to pour in a steady, heavy torrent around them all, washing the blood away. Izumi fell to her knees, clutching her chest. “He was the only one that understood me… that saved me from people like them!” He cried, pointing at the silent shinigami that watched the scene, “All they wanted to do was use him and when he refused they tried to kill him! They’re the murderers! They’re the ones that ruined his life, that killed him! Not us… not us… What… what am I supposed to do without him, Izumi? Where am I supposed to go now?!” “On…,” Izumi replied silently, “He would have… wanted you to go on, Orochi… to find your own path. This is their mess to deal with… not ours… we can’t keep fighting their battles and his, we just can’t.” Listening to her words for the first time, he grew quiet and kept his gaze lowered at the ground, his shaking fist clenched. He wanted to kill them all, make them pay… but what good would that do? It’d just be an endless cycle of more bloodshed – something he couldn’t keep doing for the rest of his life. “I’m sorry… Gen…,” he whispered, “I’m… sorry.” Edited by ViBE, Mar 26 2012, 12:45 AM.

Kai looked up and was still kind of registering what was going on. He shook his head and saw something red in front of him. He looked up and saw Vance extending a hand out to him. He instinctively thought to take his hand as it was a gesture to help him get back up "I'm glad you're ok Kai, nice job there", Vance praised, smiliing Another part of him was refusing to take his hand, after everything Gen had said. Kai looked at Vance's hand for a few seconds and with a sudden movement, he battered Vance's hand away. He felt like he wasn't even in control of that action "Kai?" "Stay away from me, I don't need your help, I can get up fine myself" Vance seemed taken aback from that sudden outburst "Are...you okay Kai?" "Like you actually care, have you actually care about me even once?" "Of cour----" "Don't bullcrap me..." Vance frowned, just what was wrong with Kai "What's with the 'tude? That's not the way to speak to a Cap----" "Is it true then? Were you just using me?" Vance fell silent, he wasn't sure how to reply to that question "So it is true then? Were you just acting like my best friend then Mr.Captain?" "No...Kai...I was---" He turned his back to Vance "Leave me alone...." Edited by Grimmjow, Mar 26 2012, 12:55 AM.

“It is time for us to take our leave,” Isshin announced, breaking the tense silence. “Our job here is done.” There was nothing left to say, nothing that could be said. Their mission was completed and that was all that mattered. Abarai wordlessly opened the Senkaimon gates, stepping through. Sparra and the rest of the shinigami followed behind. Chou grabbed Vance’s arm and dragged him along, knowing he wanted to stay, but it would only make the situation even worse than it already was. The gate closed and disappeared. Jakoby, his back turned to Kai, hoisted an unconscious Izumi in his arms and prepared to walk back to the shop. He had nothing to say to the kid, and anything he said wouldn’t really help, so it was best to just walk away. Orochi limped on in the rain, coughing up large amounts of blood. He was slowly dying and he knew he wouldn’t make it to his destination. “Gen…,” he coughed, a faint smile on his face, “looks like you were right after all, eh?” His vision going out of focus, he reached for the nearby tree for support and missed it, falling to the wet ground. He had never felt more at peace. - Izumi woke up in a strange room and the first face she noticed was Diego’s peering down at her. Shigeru was off to the side, watching with a weary expression on his face. “Hey, sleepyhead,” Diego grinned. She sat up slowly, a slight pain passing through her bandaged chest as she did so, “Where… where is Orochi?” “Who?” Diego asked, quizzically. Izumi blinked, and then realization hit her like a hard bag of bricks. She smiled softly. So he really didn’t make it after all. “…Nevermind. Are you okay?” “I’m fine,” Diego smiled, “I was just worried about you is all. You had some really bad injuries. Luckily Jakoby was on the spot to save you.” The sandy-haired shopkeeper waved lazily from the doorway. Izumi nodded. “I’m glad you’re okay… that was really a nightmare we went through. Have you seen your friend, Kai?” “Uh no, actually… I haven’t seen him since last night, but my memory of that is even fuzzier. I hope he’s okay,” Diego trailed off, looking out at the window. The sun had risen, not a cloud in the sky. Izumi sighed. There were no visible scars on the surface… but below it… it was better not the talk about them. “I’m sure he’ll be fine… once he figures out some things.” |

Just to mention, Sano was recently discharged from the Hospital, missing all of the action, but he doesn't know about any of it, probably better for him to be honest.... --- Anywa, Kai was on the warpath, he was on his way to Jakoby's shop, he was going to get some answers. He got there and rapidly knocked on the door of the shop. It slid open and Jakoby answered it "Whoa, whoa...not so loud....oh...." He had a realization of who he was standing face to face with "I was just expect---" Kai grabbed him by th colar and held him up against the wall "Whoa, chill dude, chill" "No, get me to the Seireitei....now" "What I can't just..." He slammed him against the wall and it made shelves rattle and things fall off of them "NO NOT THE MERCH!!!!" "If you don't want that to happen....I suggest you get me there" "ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT!!!! Just let me go...." Kai threw him down and took a step back, he was already in his Shinigami form and was waiting for Jakoby to get up "Jeez man..." Jakoby then led Kai down into the basement, where Kai trained, and then opened the gate "You sure you wanna----" Kai had already gone through the portal. Jakoby waved as he watched him go through "Ok...thank me yeah?" Kai appeared back in the Seireitei and he stormed his way over to Division 1, he was going straigt to the General with this and to be honest....he didn't care what happened to him, he wanted answers and he wasn't leaving without any |

A captain’s meeting had been called that day to further discuss the events of the Lost Shinigami mission. General Kururugi was preparing to make an announcement when the wide doors burst open. Everyone’s heads turned to see who had barged in. “Wait, what the hell, isn’t that -?” Rokuro asked, the other captains beside him whispering. “Kai Haineko?” The General rumbled, quite confused, “to what do we owe this visit?” “You know damn well why I’m here,” he replied darkly, walking forward. Everyone hushed, watching him with baited breath. Isshin and Sparra exchanged troubled glances. “Were you ever going to tell me the truth about this badge? About Gen? Or were you just going to have me fight all your battles blindly like a stupid puppet?” “It would be in your best interest to clear your tone with me, Haineko,” The General replied, his confused expression becoming serious, “This is not a battle I recommend you initiate. It will not end in your favor.” “You used me!” he exclaimed through gritted teeth. “It was for your own good.” “So… so it’s true then?” Kai asked, taking a few shaky steps back. He glanced at the faces of all the people he thought were his friends, his comrades… They all looked like strangers now. Everything he believed in was a lie. “You’re an idiot. And here I thought you had grown up in these last four years.” That voice. So Jakoby had followed him. He turned to see Jakoby standing behind him, his usually kind demeanor eerily unpleasant. “What are you –” “You want the truth?” Jakoby continued on, “Fine. You’re existence has been nothing but a plan. The Royal Guard and General Kururugi entrusted me with creating the perfect warrior to defend Seireitei in the event of a catastrophic occurrence. Gen was the first, and I failed with him. He went rogue, he hated the idea of being used so to speak. And who wouldn’t? “But then you came along… in all your powerless glory, and I thought, this was it; he was the one. The only reason you were able to rescue Jin was through my intervention. That badge was the only reason you were able to win all of your battles successfully. It was the only reason your powers stayed in check. It was the only reason we were able to pinpoint your exact whereabouts without searching for you.” He paused, reflecting on everything and ignoring Kai’s shellshocked face, “I had hoped one day I’d be able to tell you this without you destroying my shop and storming here to confront the shinigami. I had hoped you’d be able to deal with this in a mature matter. Obviously I was wrong. So now I leave you with a choice, Kai Haineko. You can either continue to fight for and with us, or you can leave and pray that we don’t find you, because you may just experience the same end that Gen did and I would hate to see that happen.” His zanpakuto fell out of his hands and fell to the polished floor with a loud clatter. Everything he thought he knew and believed… Everyone he thought he could trust; that he thought he cared about… Were lies. end of the Lost Shinigami Arc. |
