Perfection For Us (Bleach Story) Ch.27 Defeat Of The Army!

Hizume panted. The pain hurt but she would manage. Ishi had healed the deep gash as best as she could. Ishi was taking the brunt of the attacks. There was a slight weakened expression. Ishi fell back. “Thirty more. Just thirty more.” She kept muttering. “Can you fight Hizume?” Ishi asked. Hizume stood up roughly. “Yes.” She said panting from the pain. Then together they moved forward. Ishi engaged the first Juniho clone she encountered. She and Hizume had retreated out of shikai to save energy. She slashed her sword horizontally. Then brought it back and down in a barrage like force. Then pulling back she ran her sword right through his opening he so carelessly left open. It killed him. Hizume managed to cut the hamstrings in the back of one of the Sakura clones left leg. Then she spun the blade around and slashed through her throat. Blood sprayed through the severed artery as then Hizume with a burst of strength ran her blade through the eye socket of the clone.  Then Ishi and Hizume both attacked a Juniho clone together. They said, “Shunko!” and the kido technique swirled around them and together with a punch they killed him. They did back flips landing with a skid as two of the Sakura clones kicked them in the stomach during an opening.

 They raised their swords and cut of the clones legs at the knee caps then as the clones fell they ran their swords through their hearts.  A pair of Juniho and Sakura charged them. Ishi took on the faster Sakura clone while Hizume went for the slower Juniho clone. Using his weight against him Hizume quickly got him off balance then she cut off his head. Ishi dove for the Sakura clones spine and broke it paralyzing the poor clone. She stabbed her through the skull then all of the other Sakura clones disappeared as she had killed the original. What was ironic was the fact that this Sakura and Juniho were actually Ishi’s parents as Sakura died she said, “My darling you were as good as I hoped you would be.” Ishi then realized that it was her parents but oddly enough she felt no connection as though she were killing a stranger. She didn’t look back at the form of Sakura. “You killed….” The fake Juniho said. “That’s right I did. Got a problem with it!” Ishi snapped as she killed the clone. She was getting angry. Juniho then duplicated himself again now that his energy had restored. Ishi and Hizume were getting desperate though they had to defeat him already. They said in unison “shred and shine Houseki no Joo!” Freeze Kori!” their blades took their shikai form. “Now shred them from the inside out!” Hizume bellowed. “Freeze them to their core!” Ishi yelled alongside her. Then they went to the original Juniho. Ishi raised her sword. “Good bye.” She said as her blade formed out of ice.

She cut of his head then, as it fell, she cut it up along with his body. His blood sprayed everywhere. Again she felt no connection. It was like she never had parents. It was probably because her brother had been her parent growing up not them. “Let’s go.” She told Hizume. Hizume had no idea how Ishi could do it but she didn’t care. It just mattered they were one step closer. Then Ishi paused and said, “Let’s treat injuries and rest first.” She said. Hizume’s eyes widened then she nodded. They treated the injuries on each other and had an actual meal while their aching bodies rested up. They knew that they had to make it long enough to kill “Ichi” and “Yui”. Ishi tore into her pork bun. “I’m getting really angry.” She growled. Hizume carefully ate hers savoring the bite of actual food she had had in twelve days. Ishi ate when she was aggravated a bad habit she couldn’t shake. She finished first and she guzzled her water knowing it very well could be her last meal ever. She sighed. “I really wish Toshiro didn’t come back.” She sighed. She had been resigned to die thinking that when she did she’d be at piece there was no piece for her life now at this rate. She had to live. A new hope has started in her heart. She must live long enough to see him. His silver hair. His turquoise eyes. The smile he saved just for her. She couldn’t leave this world without it. Now she actually didn’t want to leave, she didn’t want to die. “Are you almost done?” she asked Hizume. Hizume nodded as she downed the last of her water. The food had been stale and the water warm but still it was good enough for both of them. They stood up then they began to run again.

“They got past Juniho and Sakura. That little b***h’s parents!”  Yui screeched. “She felt no connection to them. It was easy.” Ichi said. “Well either way we gotta do this ourselves now.” Yui muttered aggravated. “Not to mention they took their sweet time after killing eleven people to stop, treat wounds, and eat. Some nerve.” Ichi said. Yui nodded. He could feel the real Yui saying to spare Hizume because she found love again. But the hollow who now wore Yui’s face was cruel and would kill anyone to get what he wants.

Renji and Toshiro were awoken by the door opening then the mysterious figure dropped their swords and disappeared into the shadows. Blinking the two began to wonder if they were dreaming but they got u and picked up their swords. No this was not a dream. It was real. They could go help Ishi and Hizume now!
