Chapter 21

Chapter 21
  
    Grimmjow was fighting off Halibell as Lolly ran to hide. "It doesn't matter if she runs off, I'm still gonna fucking kill Her for sending that hollow after Saya!" Hal grunted at the force of his attack and felt herself being pushed backwards. "You think you can win? Pathetic." She kicked him backwards and he snarled. "Destroy.....tiburón!" A yellow light filled the area and he narrowed his eyes. "Kishire pantera!" His sword glowed blue and before they both knew it both of them were in their first releases. "Now let's fight shall we?"
     Saya and nnitoria were running through hueco mundo, or well Nnoitora Was running as he carried Saya, it was to much for her at the moment and that needed to move as fast as possible, two sets of eyes widened at the sight of a yellow and blue light filled the sky, a load roar could be heard and Nnoitora clenched his teeth. "Damnit Grimmjow!" Saya looked at Nnoitora and frowned. "He did something?" "He did, both he and Hal have entered their first release stages."
    Saya blinked for some reason what Nnoitora said sounded oddly familiar, like she had heard of it before. Just...where did she hear it from? Holding onto Nnoitora her eyes widened as she felt the reitsu, and before she knew it a memory game flooding back.
    *flashback*
   Saya had woken up to the sounds of metal clashing against metal and she looked over just as halibell had attacked Grimmjow. Her eyes narrowing with anger she almost didn't notice as Nnoitora set her down. She looked at the man before she nodded and before anyone could blink she moved, drawing Akuma from
The shadows she blocked the next attack and watched with a sick sense of satisfaction. She watched as Halibell's green eyes widened in shock and as she stumbled backwards. "Saya!" She narrowed her eyes and pushed Hal away. "What do you think you're doing to my partner huh?!"
    "He's the reason you're hurt!" Saya snorted, "no he isn't." Hal snarled. "I'm proving a point Saya. He even went and mentioned your death!" Saya arched an eyebrow and looked over at Grimmjow and knew he hadn't. "Like hell I did! All I said is do you even know how she died!" Saya looked back at hal and tightened her grip on Akuma. "His fault? Oh no hal, none of this is his fault, we fought yes, this is the result of a fight, but you...hurt...MY grimmjow!"
    Hal growled at this. "Nnoitora." "Yo bossy lady?" "Keep him safe." Nnoitora nodded and pulled Grimmjow out of harms way. "Saya we don't have to- ah!" She was cut off as saya lunged at her swinging Akuma down and her shoulder was sliced open.
    Saya laughed a dark and sadistic laugh. "Awe did that hurt? Look at you, you're all bloody now." Hal snarled as she tried to stand. "You aren't Saya." Saya snorted. "Funny, that's what kitty said too.  But I am indeed Saya Zetsubō."
    *flashback end*
Saya bit back a groan at the onslaught of that memory and frowned, what exactly was that, was that really her? Was that what she had once been like? Is that why this all felt so familiar to her? She wanted to ask Nnoitora but he wasn't paying attention, he was focused on making sure Saya didn't fall off his back as he ran towards the two Espada's.
    Grimmjow snarled as his shoulder was slashed open and jumped up as the water came crashing his way. "You said you would kill me, but instead I'll kill you. Then I'm going to kill that bitch Saya." He snarled again as he lunged for her face only for her to side step at just the right time however he did manage to slash her shoulder open. Glaring at the man she moved away. Looking over she arched an eyebrow before she laughed. "How cute." He raised an eyebrow in return. "Saya is here, perhaps I should kill her first and destroy your spirit once and for all!"
    His eyes widened in horror, why was Saya here? How did she even get here? He went to attack Hal but she had already vanished heading right for Saya.
    "Saya...." saya blinked as she heard the voice again. "Saya, are you ready? Are you ready to wake up?" Saya looked around to see where the voice was coming from when she saw the figure in the distance. Said figure smirked at the girl and pointed at her. "Do you know who you are Saya Zetsubō?" That's when it clicked. Before she could do anything her eyes widened as Nnoitora stopped running and put her down as he just barely blocked Halibell's attack.
    "So you're here to huh Nnoitora?" Saya however had finally stood up and backed away watching the two. She could feel Grimmjow heading there way but she almost didn't care. "Fuck off halibell. I ain't lettin ya touch her!" Hal laughed. "You don't get a choice, I will kill anyone who gets in my way." Saya stood there and closed her eyes, she was reaching now, reaching deep into her soul.
     Hal looked over and tilted her head and that was all it took for Nnoitora to kick her backwards. Grunting in pain she went to stand up when she froze, the reitsu she felt was insane, it was so powerful that it was absolutely suffocating. "Who are you Saya Zetsubō!" Saya opened her eyes and stared at halibell As she finally spoke holding her hand out in front of her.
   "My name is Saya Zetsubō! I was once Espada 2 and Grimmjow's partner." Hal's eyes widened in horror she knew those words all to well. "I am the weirder of the demon blade Akuma." Nnoi grinned and watched as Grimmjow got closer. "Now...Akuma..return to my hands!" The figure vanished and in Saya's hand was once again the demon blade Akuma. Hal trembled, this was bad, if Saya had Akuma...what else had returned? "Now....why don't i show you what pain is halibell." She pointed Akuma at herself and once again heard the voice, this time though, this time she knew it was Akuma.  
    "I have missed you old friend." "I've missed you too Akuma." "You have to make a choice..." saya raised an eyebrow. "To remain human and keep the reitsu, but never wield me again or to reclaim your rank as an Espada once and for all?" Saya's eyes widened at this, lose Akuma? She shook her head, she couldn't afford to lose her, Akuma was a part of her as she was a part of it. "You have to pick now, before that bitch attacks." Saya looked at Nnoi and then Hal and nodded before she placed her hand on the blade. "I've made my choice."
