Beginning Again

Chapter 4

    Grimmjow looked at everyone in the room and he almost smiled, it was definitely one hell of a reunion, all that was missing was Halibell and Saya herself. "So where is Halibell?" Everyone in the room stiffened at this point, the mention of halibell was still a sore point and no one was willing to fuck with her again. "What, did I say something wrong?" Nnoitora sighed and moved away from his spot against the wall. "She ain't welcome here anymore." This made Grimmjow furrow his brows in confused. "She literally punched Saya in the face claiming it wasn't the Saya we all knew." This made Grimmjow see red, she had punched his Saya?
     "Saya didn't take that sitting down, bloody mouth and all she had halibell against the wall by her face and was about to bloody her." Grimmjow smirked, she was still a violent little thing after all, it would seem his kitten hasn't changed as much as he feared. "However to save the walls, we did stop her, we threw halibell out, not physically though, not like we did 27 years ago." Grimmjow raised his eyebrow this time. "What the fuck are you guys not telling me?" Nnoitora groaned as he heard the question. "Do not destroy my house, that's all I'm saying before I tell you about it. Saya's damn reitsu cracked enough of it, and I really don't wanna sit there and repair it again."
    Grimmjow scowled But agreed none the less. He wanted to know why everyone all of a sudden had turned their backs on Halibell. "Thank you. Now let me explain, mind you this goes back exactly 27 years ago." Grimmjow said nothing he just nodded at the man to continue, crossing his arms over his chest he leaned against the other wall a permanent scowl now on his face. "Ok, remember that day we all felt the flare of Saya's insane reitsu?" He nodded. "Right, so before any of that happened Halibell tried to sit in Saya's chair. A chair all of us refused to touch, so ulquiorra threw her across the room and into a wall."
     Grimmjow watched as everyone's expressions darkened, some with malice, others with anger, very few with actual sorrow at the memory. "Right, she deserved it, we all honored Saya by not changing anything and not touching her chair." Nnoitora nodded at what Grimmjow said. "Well that's there things got dicey." He frowned this time, what on earth had he missed that day. "She was yelling and screaming, reminding each of us that Saya was dead....that she wasn't gonna come back, how she would never walk through those doors again, how we would never see her again, hear her laughter, none of it.....it pissed me off, but what pushed me over the edge was when she said we need to move on and change ranks, she was aiming for rank 2 and figured with no Saya that she would earn that rank."
     This time Grimmjow couldn't help but let Out an outraged snarl, halibell had overstepped her boundaries, even without Saya no one could ever match the insane power that woman had possessed, only for her to still possess it a thousand years later and as a human. "I slammed the bitch back into a wall by her throat, telling her it would never happen, that's when we all literally got knocked down by the flare of reitsu, no one had dared to even breathe. We all finally moved after you arrived and announced who could possess that insane amount of reitsu. And you know what happened from there."
    All eyes were now on the icy blue haired Espada, even in his gigai they could see the way his posture changed, feel the rising of his reitsu, and they all knew in that moment, if he ever got his hands on Halibell she was a dead woman walking, no one could hurt Saya and get away with it, no one could dishonor her memory and live either, so yes Grimmjow was beyond mad. However he slowly calmed down as he remembered his promise to not destroy Nnoitora's house.
    "She is aware if I get my hands on her she's going to die right? Fuck she's lucky that saya is not like her past self at all, her past self would of down right murder her in cold blood. What i don't get is they had an understanding, what made halibell turn into such a cunt?" This time it was stark who spoke. "They had that understanding yes, but the damage had been done. Saya should have killed her, but we all interfered, not wanting to suddenly drop once again in numbers. Recall, saya had killed the former espadas's numbers 1, 2,,9,10,11 and 12. And all of that was done in cold blood."
    Grimmjow nodded it was almost impossible to forget, Saya had snapped that day, espada two had been arrogant and it finally set off the sleepy Saya and she snapped.
    *flash back*
"I can't die! So this battle of the ranks is stupid, no one will ever take my place." Saya who was leaning against a rock, had her eyes closed as she listened to the man rant and go on and on how he was the strongest of them. It was Honestly pissing her off. "Will you shut the fuck up?" She snapped her eyes still closed, Akuma laying against her back, which wasn't normal, Saya had preferred to usually summon Akuma into battle, so for her to have said sword ready for battle spoke volumes about how dangerous this could possibly become. "You shut up, you numberless child!" That was the last straw for Saya though.
    Grey eyes finally opened and a deadly calm look was easy to see. Yet what made several cringe away was the sadistic smile forming along this woman's face. "You can't die huh? How about I prove to you how easy it would be to absolutely murder you?" The man laughed. "You ignorant child, you will never hurt me, I'll kill you before you even draw that stupid Zanpaktou of yours." That made a few of them actually back away, the man had no idea how dangerous saya really was, she always held back, a bored expression to emotionless Grey eyes. However no it was easy to tell that she was out for blood, so those who actually had a brain moved out of the way.
    "Is that so, former Espada 2?" He sneered at her for her comment. "Former? You act like you could take my pla-" he didn't even get to finish his sentence before saya moved, Akuma in her hands as she sliced the man in half. She has swung Akuma downwards starting from the head and going through the rest of his body. Blood had easily sprayed out of the man's singular wound and covered the Snow White sand, Saya and the sword. A twisted sadistic smile on saya's face the entire time before she let out a laugh that made them all tremble in fear. "Couldn't die huh? I guess...now you really are dead though." She laughed again and as The former leader Of Espada's walked towards her, his sword drawn as well.
    "That was uncalled for Saya." She looked at the man and tilted her head that same sadistic grin on her face. "Ya wanna die next?" The man glared at her, he clearly had underestimated this woman, and now viewed her as a dangerous threat. Pointing the sword at her he went for the kill only to be killed seconds later. Several eyes widened and that's when former espada's 9,10,11 and 12 all charged for her. Dodging each swing of a sword and blocking a few Saya had quickly and effectively murdered each and every last one of them, the sand stained red, her face covered in blood, and her sword was glowing an unsettling shade of blood red.
    "Anyone else wanna play? Because I promise you, Akuma is just waiting to slice someone else in half." She giggled and they all felt fear creep into them, all except Grimmjow who was amazed at the rawness of power she had shown. However what made her stop was ulquiorra, who simply placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "Relax Saya, no one else wishes to cross blades with you, no one else needs to die either." She tilted her head as she stared him down, looking around she saw the truth in his words and soon allowed Akuma to disappear. "Tch, very well, I'll take rank 2." This made ulquiorra's eyes widen. "You don't want rank 1? You've clearly earned it." She snorted. "Nah, I'll take two. But remember, remember what I did here today, and know that i very well could have taken one." And with that she walked away not interested in hanging around the blood stained field any longer.
   *flashback ends*
  "Right, I remember that, scary as fuck. However we really should have let her end Halibell now that we see what she's really like." The rest nodded. Halibell had become hell bent on having power, on taking a spot she would never reach even in a thousand years or more. Ulquiorra went to speak when they all heard the knock on the door. "She's here."
