Remember when I said there will only be two chapters to this? I lied. There are three
p.s. next chapter will feature ILP heavily, and I know how annoyingly knotpicky you are about your character, so on wednesday, be online as i write it so that i can ask you how you would react to different situations
Chapter 2
“Narcisse, stop! Some of them are suffocating!” Kida whispered angrily. ILP still looked apprehensive at asking the crushed people any questions. Kida turned, ready to hit Narcisse, when all of a sudden, blood came pouring out of his mouth. He looked down in shock and saw a katana pierced through his chest.
Kida pulled out her zanpaktou from its scabbard and immediately blocked an incoming attack from another stranger. Rex followed suit, whereas ILP cast a kido barrier.
Narcisse's dead body dropped onto the floor as the masked killer pulled out the katana from his back. The village people were free to move once more due to the spiritual pressure being released.
“So this is all the gotei 13 sent to rescue the weak girl,” one of the men sneered.
“DON'T TALK ABOUT HER THAT WAY!” ILP yelled. Kida gaped at his outburst. He was normally so quiet. She pushed off her opponent and flash stepped to ILP's side. She buried his head in her breasts as a form of comfort, though ILP did not find it in the least bit appealing.
“Shall we take this fight elsewhere? I do not wish these innocent people to be hurt,” a female voice said. She was very erotically dressed. She wore a loose robe with the V at a very low point. Her robe barely covered her voluptuous assets and figure eight upper body. She held a zanpaktou in her hand. It was a long thin blade that was about half her height. She nodded towards Rex and flahs steppd away. Rex followed.
The two masked men, one of which attacked Kida, the other of which killed Narcisse, flashed stepped away with Kida in hot pursuit. ILP then flash stepped in a different direction with a young boy following.

“You guys clearly aren't very strong. We killed the arrogant one in just one stab,” she chuckled as soon as they had stopped in a clearing in the forest. Rex said nothing. He was very sure that Narcisse was somehow still alive and lazily relaxing somewhere.
“The strong silent type eh? My favourite kind of man,” she licked her lips.
“My name is Rex Trainer. What is your name?”
“My my, so formal. I will share my name since you asked so politely: Roxy Kitsune,” her almond eyes did not blink once as she stared at him.
“Strike and burst, Bakugeki Kakuhan,” Rex muttered. His zanpaktou snapped in half. One half wrapped itself around his right arm, the other half wrapped itself around his left arm. Each separate half shape-shifted into two spinning yellow yo-yo's.
“Cute,” she sneered. “Come forth Itsudatsu,”
Her long katana moulded and melted. It mooved eerily like a snake, hugging every aspect of her body. She blushed heavily, releasing a moan. Rex was not sure what he was witnessing. He was trying to stay focused, but the attractive lady being felt up by liquid metal was strangely distracting. The metal became darker and darker, looking more rope-like. It then let go of her body and fell to the ground. In the end, she was holding a whip. Then the whip split into nine heads: a cat-O-nine-tails. She licked her lips.
“Ready for some fun?”
-
“Hunt, Ryookami!” Kida commanded. She swung her katana in a downwards motion, and as she did this, it lengthened and widened, then like paint chipping off, the zanpaktou exterior peeled off to reveal a long thin giant calligraphy brush. A wolf could be heard howling in the background.
“Wait, seriously? Your zanpaktou turned into A PAINT BRUSH?” one of the masked men commented. The other burst into laughter, making no attempt to hide his disapproval. Kida smiled menacingly. She then took off her headband and smiled wickedly as she felt her full spiritual energy unbind.
The two men stopped laughing, they could feel the dangerous energy coming from her.
“Kill, Soshiki hanzai,” they both said at the same time. No visible changes happened to their zanpaktou, so Kida assumed that there was some kido to them, or they were lying. It then hit her, they had the same release for their zanpaktous? She did not have enough information on them to make a strategic decision on which symbol to draw, yet she knew that if she did not draw one, they would attack and she would have no defence. She decided to go with what beats metal.
She drew the symbol for fire, a wolf-dragon hybrid (seemingly made of bright red ink) could be seen in the air painting the flaming symbol in the wind, suddenly fire erupted around Kida.
“First I am going to kill you for stabbing Narcisse. That is a privilege only I get,” one could hear the blood lust in her voice.
-
ILP continued running with one of the men hot on his trail. He gulped down one of the duds and felt a numbing sensation on the left side of his body. ILP stopped running and flashed stepped onto a tree, he glanced down and saw the dud of himself continue running and his frustrated opponent hot on his trail.
He then closed his eyes,and crossed his legs and began trying to sense her spiritual signature.
-
“Burn in hell,” Kida yelled as she spun her paintbrush in an arc, releasing a wave of engulfing flames. The two masked men she fought dived in opposite directions and were quick to get back on their feet.
“We don't like to drag battles out,” they said in unison. One of the men pointed his zanpaktou at the sky, the other stabbed his into the ground. Kida suddenly felt their combined spiritual energy and it hit her, these guys were strong.
From the sky, it began to rain blades. Kida was about to dodge when blades started shooting up from the ground as well. One blade landed in her shoulder, before another could cut through her, she released a mass amount of fire melting all the swords, however more kept popping up and raining down. She started to flash step around, trying to get closer to the two men, but the swords would not let her The deadly rain became thicker whenever she tried to approach either of the masked men.
“We will now end it,” The two men said. Kida realised she would have to use a move she hoped would never be necessary. She dived for her pink headband, just as a sword burst from the ground and pierced right through her stomach. Blood spurted from her mouth, but she managed to break the headband in half.
“He-he-hephaestus' Anger,” she choked. The ground began to shake and the two men lost balance, one of them fell down, and thus the sword rain stopped, although the ground attacks continued. A crack in the earth began to appear, the temperature became swelteringly hot. The crack deepened and widened, releasing more heat and smoke. The air was thick with ashes and it soon became impossible to see, then a massive eruption took place, lava pouring out of the crack in a circular direction killing trees, animals, the smog had gotten so thick that birds were dropping out of the sky choking. A piercing scream could be heard as the fallen man met his doom.
As the attack died down, Kida was barely conscious, but fear hit her. One of the men was still alive. He had surrounded himself with a kido barrier that allowed the lava to flow around it, and he had kept his head low in order to allow him to breath. He looked angry.
“Die b****!” he cursed. He pointed his zanpakto at the sky and the sword rain began. Suddenly, replacing the smog, a beautiful yellow gas floated into the clearing. It glittered in the grey sunlight and smelt of maple trees. The masked man started to choke, he realised that he could not move. His body had become rigid, like rock. Before his body had completely solidified, he looked towards Kida and saw a tall dark man carrying her. The man turned around and smiled.
“You really don't think you got rid of me that easily did you?” he smirked. “By the way, the poison that you just breathed in is a new one I am trying out for this battle. It basically solidifies all the liquid in your body, making you completely immobile. Here is the best bit though, it does not affect your brain, so you can hear, smell, taste and see all that is going on around you, but you cannot move. You will forever be immortalised as a statue.”
A baselbard suddenly appeared in Narcisse's left arm. He walked over t the masked bandit and stabbed him in the shoulder.
“The poison in this blade causes excruciating pain. Not only are you immortal now, but you will forever be in pain. The joys of living...”
Narcisse then flash stepped away to an area outside the zone of damage caused by Kida's volcanic eruption, and he sat against a tree. Out of his robe, he pulled out some lip balm. He put it onto his lips, and then kissed Kida. Her wounds then started to heal.
-
Rex was panting. Half of his clothes had been torn off by his opponent, yet he had so far been uable to land a scratch on her. He knew fully well that if he released his bankai on his first battle, Narcisse would never let him hear the end of it.
She flash stepped next to him, he flash stepped away, panting.
“Concussion wave!” Rex yelled as he started swinging his yo-yo's at maximum extension length. A massive sound wave was released. She cackled and whipped her zanpaktou, also releasing a sound wave that cancelled out with his. She was then next to him, all of a sudden, and whipped his now exposed chest, drawing first blood. Rex cried out.
“Am I exciting you?” she whispered by his ear. She then kissed his cheek. He was so surprised that he tripped, and she whipped his bottom half, ripping away the only clothing he had remaining.
“This is going to hurt,” she smiled as she said the words. Rex resealed his zanpaktou and flash stepped behind her, slashing at her. She turned around in surprised as he cut her left arm off. Unfortunately she held her zanpaktou in her right arm, and she looked annoyed.
"I am a kendo master," Rex gloated. It was his first hit on her.
“BANKAI!” She screamed, dropping her zanpaktou. An angry cat could be heard in the background as the cat-o-nine tails sunk into the ground and a cobra head erupted. Rex jumped high and cut off the snake's head. Two grew in its place.
“Narcisse will kill me... ban-” before he could finish releasing his bankai, one of the snake heads whipped around and bit him in the shoulder. He then noticed the snake shrinking until it was the size of an ant. ILP suddenly appeared and stepped on the snake. He held two sickles, one seemed to have grown extremely long.
“HOW DARE YOU INTERFERE!” she screamed. She then choked, no longer able to move, and that's when it became noticeable, a yellow gas floating through the air, glittering and releasing an incredinle scent of maple.
“ILP, treat Rex before whatever poison that was in that snake's venom kills him off, I got her,” Narcisse ordered.
