The monster inside me

Stay Determined!

Both of my parents were there in front of me with smiles on their faces as I saw that they were physical as I ran to hug them both and cried loudly. It's been years since their death, but how are they here, "Mom! Dad! What are you doing here?"

"To help you out against that dragon hollow of course but we have to test you first." My dad Akira mentioned as he ruffled up my hair slightly.

"Wait what? You don't have your zanpaktous though." I told them.

My father and mother both had their zanpaktous in their hands then looked at me with a smile. My mother Miyuki spoke up, "you have a very handsome boyfriend Shizuki and I can tell after this war with your hollow he would want to spend the rest of his life with you."

I blushed madly as I thought about Aizen and that obvious smirk which he would be having right now in this situation, "I love him mom and I wanna protect him and everyone else from that hollow."

"Then show us what you've learned Shizuki." My father says as he uses the command for his bankai as a large dragon appeared behind him, "His name is Paarthurnax and he's been with me a very long time." The dragon behind him roared happily and spewed out flames then calmed down.

My mother soon uttered the words to her bankai as a large white Falcon was seen behind her, "This falcon of mine is named Gavina. Are you gonna have Alduin come out and say hello Shizuki?"

I nodded my head in response as I called Alduin out as he appeared behind me and roared happily seeing my parents and their zanpaktous, "Alduin, ready to work together?"

Alduin grins happily, "Of course Shizuki. I'm always ready to go into battle with you!"

Both my father and mother charged at me as our zanpaktous did as well...

~Time skip~

As the dragon hollow was going to give Aizen the last blow, Shizuki appeared and smacked the hollow away with just her kick to his side.

Aizen widened his eyes at her new form which was draconic with scales all over her body, a long tail, claws and horns, "S-Shizuki?!"

I looked over my shoulder at Aizen and gave him a smile, "hey."

Aizen was still in his hollow state as he walked over and hugged me from behind, "You're not scared of me in this form are you?"

I shook my head, "No I'm not afraid of you Sosuke. I'm proud of you being strong through this war against my dragon hollow."

Aizen looked happy from my reply and hugged more, "you know how to defeat him right?"

"Yeah, you can thank my parents for that." I replied smiling more.

Aizen widened his eyes in surprise, "You met your parents in your zanpaktou's realm?"

I nodded, "Yes and they both taught me this form, but it wasn't easy fighting them they both used their bankai's on me while I only had Alduin to help me out."

"What did they think of me dating you?" Aizen asked being curious.

"Well my mom thought you were very handsome while my dad knows you'll always make sure I'm happy and well protected." I replied.

Aizen smiled even in his hollow state as we bothheard a loud roar and saw the dragon hollow changing to a form I haven't seen. 

"Well? What do you think of this Shizuki? Now we're on the same level." The dragon hollow says then grins.

"You'll never be on the same level as me at this rate." I said as I appeared past him as he had a surprised look on his face, "I'll kill you and avenge my parents."

The dragon hollow chuckles in amusement, "You can try and beat me Shizuki but its meaningless...let's go."

I nodded then looked over at Aizen, "Don't interfere Sosuke if anything protect the others who are still standing."

"Be careful." Aizen said as he went to his normal state and went towards to others to stand and watch.

I let out a sigh as I looked over at the dragon hollow as we both flash stepped and appeared up high into the air both our fists connecting as a large shockwave was created blowing away the clouds that were near us.

"Not bad....again!" the dragon hollow said then grinned.

I grinned back at him as we did this same action several times blocking each other's attacks with our hands, arms, legs and tail as it made the same shockwave to be created. At one point the dragon hollow slipped up and I managed to punch him in the face sending him traveling down fast into a two story building where he continued to slide into another building then stopped.

The building soon exploded into millions of pieces as the dragon hollow had an expression of pure annoyance and anger on his face as he charged at me as I charged at him too but I was too fast for him and grabbed him by the head and slammed him into the ground then several buildings and sent him flying into the bridge that was nearby as it was destroyed with a good chunk missing from it.

I heard the dragon hollow roar in anger as he flew up to meet me as I smirked over at him in amusement, "What's wrong? Afraid you'll lose?"

The dragon hollow snarled in anger as he opened his jaws to reveal a cero ready to be fired as I opened my palms to have mine show up as well as we both fired them at each other as it collided and sent us both back skidding on our feet.

"I will not be made a fool of by some lowly soul reaper!!" The dragon hollow yelled out as his eyes burned a bright red as he started murmuring a spell as I saw a black box forming around my body as swords were seen on the outside ready to pierce my body.

I widened my eyes, 'That's one of Aizen's high leveled kido spells!'

I quickly calmed down and with a steady breath I used my tail to break the box as if it were like glass shattering to pieces, "you used a spell that Aizen has used before. Are you seriously copying others so you might seem stronger than me?"

The dragon hollow was speechless as he snarled loudly at me appearing on my side trying to kick me in the side but I dodged and grabbed his leg and used my elbow to slam it harshly as I heard bones break and him yelling in pain backing away.

I was getting impatient and it seemed Alduin was too as I saw his mini dragon form on Aizen's shoulder as he gave me the permission to use that spell. I looked down at the dragon hollow as it was trying to get away as I murmured a spell in draconic language as the dragon hollow was put back in his original form of being a large dragon was slammed against the air keeping him there as a large seal was keeping him still as large spears punctured through his tail, arms, legs and neck as it screeched it pain as I had my dragon hollow mask on and my zanpaktou in black flames.

I charged at the dragon hollow and yelled out, "CERO DRACONIS!!!"

A large black dragon in the form of a cero and flames combined headed towards the dragon hollow as it couldn't do anything to stop it as it burned away at his flesh and fizzled away into nothingness. When the flames dissipated the dragon hollow was no longer there only ashes as Shizuki let out a sigh of relief as she felt like she was gonna pass out but Aizen was there next to her and had her in his arms bridal style, "S-Sosuke?" I said tiredly.

His warm smile greeted me and I opened my eyes more, "I knew you could kill that thing Shizuki. I'm so proud of you." He said kissing my forehead then my cheeks.

My face was beginning to warm up as I whined, "S-Sosuke stop people are watching."

He chuckled in my ear, "Let's go greet them then. Shall we?"

I smiled then kissed him on the lips, "Yeah, let's go!"

He grins and begins to walk towards where thesoul reapers and arrancars were still at unsure of whether to end the war or tokeep going. Who knows...the war was more about killing my dragon hollow which I finallysucceeded in doing after all these years and I felt like a heavy burden hasbeen lifted from me and I can take it easy from now on. No sleepless nights...nonightmares, all of that gone.
