Ichigo's Successor-A Bleach Fanfic

Chapter 12: The end of a battle.

Yuki stared at the figure before her, shocked.

"Run...now!" It yelled and she she quickly got up and ran. The figure looked at James and growled.

"How dare you do this! Ordering Kenya to attack Yuki! Attacking me! Are you so shallow that you can't just accept you can't beat me?"

James cringed and said, "Your're supposed to be dead! Why aren't you dead!"

The figure raised it's blade. "This is for Kenya." It slashed it sword downwards sending a huge wave of fire at James. James barley managed to dodge and growled. "Damn you Son!" Son just walked towards him, his eyes a yellow color within the mask just like a Hallow. James started to shake from Son's spiritual pressure.

"This is the end of you." He said and struck at James. James growled and blocked the strike, eventhough he was still feeling weak from the overpowering spirtual pressure. James and Son backed away from each other and got ready for their final battle.

"No matter what... I will defeat you!" He yelled and he ran at Son like a fool.

"You fool..." Son said as he flash stepped and appeared behind James, stabbing him through the chest from his back. James stood there wide eyed and looked down at the blade that impaled him. He felt like he was burning inside and it hurt more than the impaling.

James looked back at Son and said, "You know... I wont die from something like this..." Son just nodded then jumped letting go of his blade, grabbing James's head slamming it into the ground. He then pulled out his zanpakto from his body and watched the blood pour out. Son felt weak as the mask broke off from his face and he fell.

                     ***TIME PASSES***

When Son awoke, he was in a hospital bed with Ichigo there in the room with him.

"About time you woke up sleepy ass." Ichigo said and smiled slightly. Yuki walked in and jumped on Son hugging him tightly.

"OW! Yuki get off that hurts!" She quickly got off of him and apoligized, putting a hand on the back of her neck.

A woman who had a small but curvy frame walked in. She was wearing the uniform of the soul reapers and her zanpakto was in it's sheath at her side. Her hair was blackish grey and spiked out at the bottom of it, as it was short. Her eyes were also a gray color which made her even more beautiful.

"Ah Rukia." Ichigo said and she smiled hugging him then looking at Son. "Looks like you woke up finally Mr. Hallow." She chuckled.

Son smiled and said, "Shut up sis."

Yuki looked at them then saw she had a wedding ring on. She quickly checked Ichigo's hand and saw his wedding band.

"AWW, I had no idea you were married Ichigo."

Ichigo blushed slightly and said, "We eloped, it was kind of private. We don't even have our own place yet. Looks like we're still figuring things out, haha." Rukia smiled and kissed her husband on the cheek then walked over to Son.

"Well looks like you took quite a hit there." She said and he nodded.

"Ya know, if it wasn't for that mask I wouldnt have beaten him... it wasn't a victory though..." He sighed.

"I know how ya feel. Years ago, when I first came to the Soul Society, I was on a rescue mission to save Rukia. I had to fight her brother, who is your captain. Me and Kuchiki went at it hard both using our bankai. It wasn't easy, but I didn't let the mask take hold of me. It started to form, and it made a blow into him. I managed to pull the mask off though, and take back contorl, before it did anymore damage. Then I defeated him with my own strength. We both only had one attack in us, but I won in the end. So anyway, I'll teach you how to contorl the Hallow form within you." Son nodded as he listening to Ichigo tell his story.

Captain Kuchiki then walked in and said, "I see you're all better. In just a few hours you will be lead to your fight in the exams. Good luck." He then walked away. Son looked at Yuki then looked away as a member of squad 4 came in and healed all of his wounds. 

The hour finally came and Son along with Rukia, Ichigo, and Yuki, all walked to see who his challenger would be. Son cringed as Yuki's name popped up and she looked at him a sadness in her eyes. "So this is what you have been so secretive about ...us having to fight..."

Son looked at his beloved and sighed, "I'm sorry Yuki I tried to change it but the Captain decided. You and me might be dating but, we are oppents in the arena. So I want you to try your hardest, you understan? Go all out, even use your bankai." Yuki hugged Son as he hugged her as well, sharing a loving kiss between each other they then walked into the arena hand in hand.

"I love you," Son said to her. "I love you as well." Yuki said. They then seperated and walked to oppsite sides of the arena, drawling their zanpaktos they looked a each other and nodded, and understanding of saying 'good luck'.

"Fight!" The test proctor called and they clashed zanpaktos. The battle of lovers has begun.
