Perfection For Us (Bleach Story) Ch.37 Two Hearts Are Healed

Hizume was in a total state of disarray after the revelation about Houseki no Joo’s betrayal. It ran deep into her core and it almost made her cry in misery. Hizume though knew that she had to get rid of her zanpakuto or it would cause even more chaos throughout the soul society. Ishi and Hizume had conversed once more after Kori ran off.

“Hizume Kori’s mind was muddled under Murumasa control so calm down it was not your fault. Not your fault at all.” Ishi assured her big breasted friend patting said friends back. Hizume sighed. Toshiro had awoken earlier much to Ishi’s like but Hizume was still avoiding Renji. Hizume nodded. “I must try to get her back even harder now though.” Hizume said determined to get back her dear sword.

As Hizume recalled that memory she landed. Her eyes were hidden in shadows. Her hands clenched and she punched right through the tree she was standing on. Her eyes were not full of tears but ones of burning anger.

Houseki no Joo was content to kill her master no matter what. It was that instinct to finally be acknowledged that drive. Then she saw a familiar figure. There were rumors throughout the zanpakuto Kori had left them but Houseki no Joo was unsure of what her friend was, so she trusted the normal instinct to go down to her. That was her mistake. Kori then turned and fled and Houseki no Joo was at first wounded and confused when she felt a blade just miss her head. She turned and deflected a blow with her whip. It was Hizume. “So I was true Kori abandoned us.” Houseki no Joo growled to herself as she began and attack on Hizume who dodged determinedly.

Houseki no Joo noted that Hizume had a new burning glower in the back of her eyes that frightened the zanpakuto. She knew that look. Hizume would not give up nor would she allow herself to lose. Hizume launched herself at her zanpakuto reading herself for her assault. Houseki no Joo barely had time to defend herself as Hizume bored down on her. Then Hizume said as she ran her blade through Houseki no Joo’s heart. “I would never have felt you behind nor would I forget about you. You mean so much to me Houseki no Joo.” Houseki no Joo felt the control break and she went into submission. Hizume picked up the broken zanpakuto and smiled seeing the jewels brighten a bit.

Renji and Hizume were at the cherry blossom tree. Things went good. Zabimaru was back with Renji and Houseki no Joo was back with Hizume. Hizume had not seen her jeweled swords spirit but she figured that Houseki no Joo might be resting. She had noticed that Kori and Hyorinmaru were talking a lot more and Ishi had hardly left Toshiro’s side. Once Hizume had actually walked in to the room to see Ishi sleeping in the chair clutching Toshiro’s pale hand. Hizume sat with her head resting on Renji’s shoulder and Renji sighed as he finally stopped scolding the blue haired maiden about avoiding him and fighting alone without him. Hizume hadn’t protested nor argued back at her new boyfriends banter. She only took it nodding her head knowing protesting was futile. She cuddled up closer to him making the lieutenants face match his hair. Hizume giggled looking up she kissed his rosy cheek. “Now we have to figure out what is going on with Murumasa and Byakuya then we also have to free the other zanpakuto and after that we can finally rest up.” She said. Renji nodded. That’s when they saw Zabimaru and Houseki no Joo.

 Poor Hebi was left out of the conversation between Saru and Houseki no Joo. Hebi plopped down by the couple the two women were still chatting at seeing her master Houseki no Joo launched herself at Hizume. Hizume managed to catch her zanpakuto in an embrace. “I am so glad we’re on the same side now.” Houseki no Joo sighed. “Now I see why this girl was drawn to us Renji me and Houseki here can carry on quite the conversation.” Saru said to her master. Hebi grunted. “They talk and talk and it gets so annoying.” This earned hi two knots on his head from the two zanpakuto women. Renji and Hizume just started laughing softly then the two were laughing full blast.
