Rio's smile grew a tiny bit, but more sinister than anything else. "I see~ Well, I did try taking two pills once to see if it'd help, but my medicine was stronger than silly little me assumed, hence why I fainted outside your office~ I wonder what would of happened if you didn't find me~" Rio took a couple steps forward, softly placing both hands on top of Kaizo's desk while leaning forward a little, her smile worsening into a subtle, devious grin. "Well, I can't say I'm surprised, you are indeed a powerful man~ However, that begs the question of how powerful exactly? Do you consider yourself to rival other Captains such as the Kenpachi of Squad Eleven? You have some history with Shiro, don't you?~" Rio asked before chuckling breathlessly and pushing herself off of Kaizo's desk, covering her mouth as she chuckled before looking at Kaizo, still with that same red glint in her eye. "I do wonder how much you've improved since I'm so very proud of you Kaizo. Even after how much my heart ached during your disappearance, how much I feared that you had died due to hearing absolutely nothing from you heh heh~... Even after all of that anguish, I care so much about you, I love you so deeply and honestly don't understand what makes you so different from everyone else~ But I guess my heart sees something in you that my mind doesn't understand~" Rio spoke while chuckling, a cheerful expression on her face as if what she was saying was causal small-talk. "And I see, well, I'm glad to here everything has been running smoothly, I could say the same for training here also~ And now now, a simple headache is no excuse for time off. I am a Lieutenant, it'd be ridiculous of me to let a headache get in the way of my work, wouldn't it Captain?~" Rio looked at Kaizo with a half-lidded eye and simple smile, almost smirking.

Kaizo continued to look at Rio, growing more and more suspicious of how she was acting...in fact the way she was right now he wouldn't say she was anything like Rio...even the expression she carried was far different to any Rio would have. Hearing her mention Shiro and question how strong he was caused him to chuckle "Shiro and myself haven't fought in a long while...I wouldn't know who is stronger..." Kaizo looked at Rio, looking at her without breaking eye contact "Well...that's interesting isn't it. You missed me so much and yet you can't understand why your heart ached while I was gone? So you are telling me that as you stand here right now you do not understand why your heart feels the way it does for me?...I must say...that sounds worrying Rio. It's so different to what you say sometimes, where you know why you love me and yet now you don't? it's as if you are two different people in the same body" Kaizo then sat back in his chair and rubbed the back of his head with his right hand and closed his eyes "It's truly confusing yet I've noticed this sort of behaviour for awhile now...it seems it came on when these headache's came to you and as the headache's got worse" Kaizo then opened his eyes "this odd behaviour has gotten worse and more noticeable...perhaps I have been looking into it to much...or did you think I'd just overlook that fact and think I wouldn't notice? Because you know...right now...I don't feel as if Rio is standing infront of me...this feeling is uncomfortable and I'd even go as far as to say you are an entirely different person...So how about we quit the games here and you get right to the point? how about telling me what the hell is going on?" Kaizo then narrowed his eyes at Rio the look growing serious and cold

Rio nodded before following Kaizo into his office, closing the door behind her. Walking into the middle of the room, Rio stopped and looked at Kaizo, waiting for him to take a seat and finish speaking. "I'll start with the new recruit. Their name is Scarlett, however their gender is hard to tell, but I do remember saying a few words to them for them to respond as though they didn't know what a 'boy' or 'girl' was. With that aside, I tested them, choosing to test them personally without allowing another member to spar with them this time since the last time that happen, there was the incident between Nohime and Eiichi... Since then, I've decided to test all new recruits myself to insure no one gets hurt. Scarlett's Zanpakuto seems to be based on torture methods for gaining information, or more that is what I've witnessed so far. I was told by Scarlett that it was an illusion type, but the illusion was indeed quite realistic so it wouldn't surprise me if it was real. I did accept them into the Squad afterwards, much for the same reasons I chose to accept Nohime; mainly for safety of other Shinigami, not to mention Scarlett could also be a rather worthy member, as long as she doesn't use her Zanpakuto's Shikai on allies. Anyway, I did inform them that I was going to report to you and that if you chose against my decision then your word is final, so they understand that." Rio paused for a moment, taking a few breaths.

She then looked down. "With that said, there's something else...." Rio thought carefully about her words before speaking up. "There seems to be something... wrong with me... While testing Scarlett... I-My headaches had seem to of worsened. I believe the attack had agitated my state, causing my headache to get worse but not for too long. After a while, it vanished~" Rio's tone of voice seemed to of changed as she spoke, including her aura. At first she seemed nervous, but now she was calm, just fine. Lifting her head up, she smiled, her eye squinting. "I think something must of happened along the line which had trigger headaches since I've been getting them for quiet a while now. Do you have any thoughts on what to do for a headache? Silly me, I simply don't know how to handle them since they've been out of control, especially recently~ I have been given some medicine from someone I trust, but it doesn't seem to be working anymore... I was wondering if you had any headache remedies that I could try?~" Her smiled dropped a little but was still present on her face, however that wasn't the only thing present, the red glint had found it's way back, glimmering behind Rio's eye. "So Kaizo~ How's work been? Have there been any injuries during training? And just how are the Onmitsukido doing?~"

Kaizo listened to Rio then nodded as she spoke "I see well that sounds like it's for the best, I trust your judgement. We will have to keep a close eye on them...good job Rio." Kaizo then narrowed his eyes slightly as Rio continued to speak before speaking himself "Hmm...well that does sound worrying..." Kaizo then noticed Rio's sudden change in tone and even the feel she gave off was different, this caused Kaizo to look to her eye as he listened to her speak which in itself was different...then there was that...the red glint again causing Kaizo to begin to take caution with what he'd say...he remembered this look, this aura...the way she spoke...from that time, almost as if she changed personality's for a moment. "Well if the tablets you have aren't working for your headache I'm not sure what to suggest, there are a few obvious methods but those clearly wouldn't work...So I wouldn't know what to suggest, I rarely get headache's and when I do I just power through them..." Kaizo then took a breath before continuing to speak "Everything's been running smoothly...so no worries there and well...I don't really need to say how they're doing." Kaizo placed both his elbows on his desk then clasped his hands together and held them in front his mouth as he then spoke "You know if you're having these headache's perhaps you should take a few hours off till it passes...afterall I don't want the stress of the job getting to you and making it worse..."

Bleach: A New Dawn

Kaizo rubbed the back of his head as Rio spoke then shrugged "Sure, I don't need to train them till tomorrow so I got some time to spare" Kaizo opened his office door then stepped in and walked around to his desk then sat down on the chair behind his desk "So what is it you want to tell me? is something wrong?" Kaizo looked at Rio, wondering what the other reason she came here for was...it seemed serious so Kaizo prepared himself...maybe she needed to get some more emotions out? he didn't expect her to be over what happened so soon so it was only natural she'd be upset

Bleach: A New Dawn

As Kaizo stood in the Onmitsukido courtyard he sealed his Bankai as he looked around at the Onmitsukido members laying on the ground around him "Not bad...but you all need to improve a lot more, I wasn't even scratched...I suggest you work on everything a lot more, there will be no more relaxing...you will be training everyday until we go to war...I've got to return to my barracks, so get yourselves sorted out" Kaizo sheathed his Zanpakuto then shunpoed off. Within a few minutes he arrived at the Squad 2 barracks and entered them, he then walked through the barracks towards his office, as he turned the corner to walk towards his office he saw Rio standing outside it, this caused Kaizo to speak out "Rio? Sorry...I was off training, what can I do for you?" Kaizo said stopping not to far from her

Bleach: A New Dawn

Kaizo was in the courtyard in which the Onmitsukido train, he looked at the Shinigami before him that were lined up perfectly, hands behind their backs as they looked forward and held a straight posture. It was true...these Shinigami were some of the best, they were trained well...but for Kaizo...not good enough, they'd be going into unfamiliar terrain, places to hide would be scarce and so they'd have to learn how to fight more upfront and against stronger opponents...Kaizo wanted the Onmitsukido to be able to take on any number of enemies and dispatch of them with perfect co-ordination, they not only needed to read each others moves but eachothers minds....

"Well...I look at you all and see what great Shinigami you all are. However. You aren't good enough...in fact...if you go out there now thinking you are then you'll be dead in no time at all...so...those who think highly of themselves and think they are strong enough then please, do step forward...because if you think you don't need training then you can go relax...go and chill out...because when your laying on the cold sands of Hueco Mundo trying to hold your fucking guts in your body as you lay in a pool of your own blood all you will see is your comrades passing you, they wont turn and help you...no...instead you will die there...you'll sink into the sand and be forgotten...or you can try get stronger and fight the enemy with such skill and speed they are blown away! It's no good being able to think I'll save your ass! I'm your Captain and if you can't do the job properly then you deserve to lay on those cold sands and die! I will be fighting some of the best the enemy has to offer and if I have to take on more than one then so be it! I'll tear them apart...I'm sick of the enemy underestimating us! if a Captain as skilled as Kurisa Kuchiki can see potential in all of us then we damn well best believe him! I don't know who the hell managed to kill that man but when I fought him I was terrified...I was outmatched in everything..I couldn't reach him...now I will train till I drop! and even then I will continue to go! I will make that man proud! we will make that man proud! The Gotei 13 will make him proud! Because let me tell you right now! FAILURE IS NOT AN OPTION! WE WILL WIN! There are no doubts about it...The Gotei 13 are the strongest military force, we protect the peace between these worlds and we don't just kill those before us...we crush them..." Kaizo then unsheathed his Zanpakuto then spoke "Ban-Kai!"

After releasing his Bankai he stood infront of the Onmitsukido then spoke, a dead serious expression on his face "...I want you to try kill me...those who hesitate will lose their own life...Now come at me!" Kaizo watched the Onmitsukido members as some then darted off to move into position to surround Kaizo however a few stood still, unable to move. Kaizo appeared infront of one and slammed his left knee into one of their guts and sent them flying off into a wall, Kaizo then slammed his left foot onto the ground as he ducked an Onmitsukido's members attempt to cut Kaizo, another then came at Kaizo aiming to stab his chest, Kaizo then moved just enough back to grip the members right wrist with his left and and redirect the course of the mans attack to block another incoming Onmitsukido members attack, kaizo then slammed his right elbow into the first one that tried to attack him, and sent him flying as he then slammed his right palm onto the ground as he then slammed his left foot into the last member who tried to attack him gut, then Kaizo twisted and slammed his right foot into the last members chin sending him flying into the air, Kaizo then continued to spin till he got back to his feet and stood up straight, looking back over his left shoulder as he then spoke "If this is all you lot have to offer then I'm disappointed...You best up your game if you ever hope to get those Zanpakuto near me..."

Bleach: A New Dawn

Juki stood in the center of the room looking down at his chest that had a slight cut to it, this caused his eyes to narrow as he then looked up at Kagiko who sheathed his Zanpakuto "That Bankai...it's impressive...in fact...if you were a bit stronger and put in more effort you could have struck me down in one strike...I see why you don't use it for long though, that must be very taxing on you..." Kagiko nodded then spoke "This is why I have developed various ways to use my Shikai as well as creating inventions to compensate for my Bankai...as powerful as it is I'd like to keep it a last resort...or use it if someone is holding me up..." Juki nodded then spoke "Well Kagiko...I have one thing to ask you. When the time comes...will you be on the front lines? I understand that Squad 12 and the SRDI are not combat orientated...but with skills such as yours it'd be very helpful..." Kagiko chuckled a little then spoke "Whoever set the rule for Squad 12 and the SRDI being nothing more then office workers was a true fool...I can tell you right now that the weird and wonderful of Squad 12 is something that should be embraced and if it is...well...the Shinigami produced from this squad will not only be immensely intelligent but also strong...some of the Squads Zanpakuto's are by far interesting...this has led to me studying Zanpakuto's closer...I have a certain task to fulfil but this I cannot share details about...I promise you it has the Gotei 13's best interest's at heart..." Kagiko then bowed as he then heard Juki speak "I see...well then Kagiko, I dismiss you...go back to Squad 12 the Captain...do not let me down, I expect great things of you..." Kagiko straightened up then smiled "You will not be let down Head Captain...In fact...I promise you, I'll blow you away with what I am capable of..." Kagiko then bowed his head before leaving Juki's office and making his way back to Squad 12

Bleach: A New Dawn

Miyuki was sat in her office looking at the freaky girl opposite her "Well it seems you have the skills to be in the Squad...I just ask you don't kill anyone unless they are hollow or a criminal...not saying that you will Shizuka...it's just you know...you seem to like...killing...A LOT..." the girl looked that Miyuki then spoke "okay...." Miyuki then rubbed the back of her head with her right hand when she heard a knock on the door which caused her to look up "THANK THE SOUL KING! ENTER!" Miyuki was just glad someone else was here so she didn't have to talk to this girl anymore, she was just plain freaky...even as a Captain she was freaked out by this girl.

Bleach: A New Dawn

Kagiko sat in Zero's office then nodded as he took a deep breath then exhaled "Well that's that done. Now...I wonder how the Head Captain will react to this..." Kagiko stood up from the chair then began walking towards the door before closing it behind him as he made his way out the Squad 12 barracks and to the Squad 1 barracks. After a lengthy walk he arrived at the Squad 1 barracks then looked at the guards as they asked him what his business was here "I have some news regarding the 12th division Captain...." the guards looked at eachother then allowed Kagiko into the barracks. Kagiko then made his way to the Head Captains office then knocked on the door and spoke "Head Captain is Kagiko the Squad 12 Lieutenant, I have some unfortunate yet interesting news to deliver..." Juki looked up at the door then spoke "Enter" Kagiko opened the doors then closed them behind him as he walked into the center of the large room and bowed before speaking "The Captain of the 12th division has lost his life..." Hearing this caused Juki's eyes to widen as he then spoke "Are you certain? how do you know this?" Kagiko took his hat off then held it at his chest as he spoke "I had been investigating the Squad 12 Captain ever since I entered the Gotei 13, I always felt there was something rather unusual about him...and so I pursued with my investigation gathering small bits of evidence to see if my suspicions were true. I however was finding it difficult to pin down some solid evidence...it was proving difficult and so I got closer to him, however I do admit to tampering with the records about myself to test a theory of mine...I made it so I wasn't as great as first thought and that I was more so lacking, as a cause of this Zero grew closer as he felt he could trust me more due to me not understanding things he was doing but of course I understood fully...I believe what truly settled things for me was when he began working on these Arrancar...it seemed he was trying to make it so they'd obey him and follow his every command...this was all well and true...he may have used them for good however it seemed he was trying to do something more odd with them...I was still unsure at this point and so I further investigated...I went into his records and found he had narrowed down the existence of your room you used to train Shiro Sora...I have recently destroyed such information as that is something no Shinigami should know about so you needn't worry...but it seems he was also developing a Kido to try get into the room...I could only assume things would become bad but what truly did it for me was when I noticed he was sending false signals from that far out village Kurisa Kuchiki went to, it was then he told you and of course the only one who would agree to a mission alone would be Kurisa, more so...he'd likely be the only one to be offered the mission. Of course the case was just this, I then gave Kurisa Kuchiki a device to seek out any disturbances and it seemed it worked well...he caught onto this and acted but the enemy knew Kurisa wouldn't harm the villagers and planned to use that against him, thankfully he was smart enough to notice something was wrong and managed to free them...after that two strong figures showed up...one an unidentified Arrancar with a great deal of power and the other Shinji....it seems odd that Zero was the one to set the trigger off and then ask that a Captain be sent to deal with it isn't it?...I felt that all the confirmation needed and so recently I approached the 11th division captain and examined his Zanpakuto...I was interested in what you had done, it seems everything was just natural process...however I did notice the odd killing intent coming from the Zanpakuto...the intent to kill Zero. Thankfully I looked into the past records of the Kenpachi's and noticed one had been sealed away within a Zanpakuto...back then he was one of the only people who stood against a rather dangerous group...so even in his spirit form he wanted revenge...I felt that it would be helpful to Shiro if he was able to do this...in the end it turned out Zero was under the command of Shinji...countless times he allowed him to slip in...If this isn't the signs of a traitor then I do not know what is...all I know is that he is apart of something larger..." Juki listened to Kagiko speak then nodded before speaking himself "I see...well...this is...unfortunate. We must move on quickly though...he has been properly dispatched of then?" Kagiko nodded before Juki continued to speak "Well then...it seems that you've shown great skill leading up to your Captains death, do you believe you can take his place? " Kagiko nodded then spoke "I believe I can take his place and surpass anything he ever did...he was nothing more than a being programmed to do as he was ordered...he had no free thinking, I however do...that was his biggest downfall...However..I do understand that Captains must have a Bankai...so...do you wish to see mine in action Head Captain?" Kagiko then smiled at Juki

~will skip to the part after the test~

Bleach: A New Dawn

AbigailTenshi said
Nishiki had her fists still clenched and eyes still to the floor... She'd refuse to ever lay eyes upon that man, and so hadn't, even when he first showed up she never looked at him once due to how he treated her Captain. The very sound of his voice scratched at her brain, nothing but an annoyance, and even more so now due to this death... A random man then walked up to her Captain and began speaking. The proximity between this man and her Captain had already called to her attention as her eyes snapped to the Squad Twelve Lieutenant. Nishiki watched their interaction silently, finding this man a little... off. Just by maybe, a centimeter, or a millimetre, but still off none-the-less. But than again, Squad Twelve was off in general, but still, Nishiki didn't judge a book by their Squad, surely he could of been nice... If was just how he was feeling Shiro's Zanpakuto.... After the man took off, Shiro uttered a few words to himself before looking back at her. Immediately Nishiki turned around but didn't move, just waited for Shiro to start walking so she could follow. Nishiki didn't seem as joyful as usual, granted the news wasn't good so that was acceptable... however, in truth, she didn't know Captain Kuchiki enough to care about his death much... She was just pissed off at how Juki could of let it happen, no matter how strong the Captain was.

Shiro began walking then suddenly stopped and turned to Nishiki "Actually...there is a change of plan. I want you to gather Squad 11's strongest members...I need to go pay someone a visit. Just tell them we are going on a training trip...so they may want pack a lot of supplies to bring with them...I'll see you back at the barracks once I am done." Shiro then walked to the edge of the cliff and leaped off it, he then landed on the ground below before standing up straight and closing his eyes "I haven't used this skill in awhile...it's better than running all the way there..." Shiro then opened his eyes as he shunpoed off towards Squad 12. After awhile Shiro arrived outside the barracks then rubbed the back of his head "Shit I'm slower than I thought...guess I'll have to put a bit more training into that..." Shiro then looked at the Squad 12 barracks and SRDI. "Now to find you Captain...." Shiro then walked into the Barracks, towering over everyone as he walked around the barracks, he didn't want to ask anyone for directions...instead...he wanted to try sense this freaky bastard...and sure enough he got the trace of the guy.

Zero was underground working on something when he raised his head as someone booted open the door behind him, this caused Zero's eyes to widen slightly as he then turned and narrowed them "What can I do for you? Captain of the 11th Division?" Shiro looked at the man then spoke "I want you to take a walk with me...I need to ask you a few things but I'd rather not in this building...you don't mind that do you?" Zero looked to his work which he had quickly covered then looked to Shiro "Very well then...I believe it's about time for me to take a break. Just give me a second" Zero reached into his pocket then and pulled out a device then spoke into it "Lieutenant Kagiko, Can you report to my lab."

A few minutes later Kagiko arrived, rubbing the back of his head as he yawned "Yah called Captain?" Zero nodded then spoke "Yes...I want you to hold down the fort here while me and the Squad 11 Captain here go discuss some things" Kagiko looked to Shiro then to Zero and spoke "Very well then...enjoy your walk Captain..." Zero walked past Kagiko and Shiro. Shiro then looked at Kagiko as Kagiko looked at Shiro and held out a syringe to him "Have fun Captain Kenpachi...I hope you get what you are looking for..." Shiro just looked at Kagiko then took the syringe then looked to the exit and followed after Zero as they left the barracks and made their way out the Seireitei. Kagiko then looked at Zero's lab and rubbed the back of his head "Suppose I best get used to this sight..."

Zero and Shiro had made their way towards a forest as Zero then spoke "So Captain of the 11th division what is it you wanted to discuss?" Shiro looked at Zero then spoke "I wanted to ask you a few things...some may be a bit personal but I am curious...you're a mysterious man, I and neither do anyone else know much about you...I'm just wondering why are you so secretive? " Zero narrowed his eyes then looked at Shiro and spoke "I'm the Captain of the 12th division...I believe I have a right to be secretive about what I do, don't you? would be worrying if information got out to everyone in the Seireitei and then possibly relayed to the enemy..." Shiro nodded "I suppose that's true....so can you tell me how the enemy have slipped past our defences so easily time and time again?" Zero suddenly stopped as his eyes widened, this caused Shiro to stop. Zero then narrowed his eyes and looked to Shiro "If I didn't know any better Captain, I'd say you were accusing me of allowing the enemy in..." Shiro continued to look at Zero as he then spoke "Perhaps that's what I am doing...or maybe I am asking a genuine question. I just find it odd that the enemy can slip past our defences so easily and the ones who should catch onto it are Squad 12...yet...you never did...in fact...you never even showed up to any battles. Did you think I missed seeing that arrancar you were working on? I suggest you tell me what you are up to and what your plans are or I'll kill you here and now..." Zero smiled slightly then spoke "My, My you aren't as dumb as you look are you Captain? I wonder what Juki did to you in there Or...maybe I should look closer to home...perhaps it's Kagiko who put you up to this...either way you are saying things that really shouldn't be said."

Shiro narrowed his eyes then spoke "Oh? how did you know about my meeting with Juki...more importantly...how do you know about that place? Regardless...I am the one who is curious here..." Zero's smiled faded as he then spoke "Well...I can tell you truth Captain...but it may just kill you to hear it..." Shiro grinned then spoke "Oh? then how about you enlighten me? I'm so very interested in knowing..." Zero narrowed his eyes then suddenly a blade shot out from his sleeve towards Shiro, who then unsheathed his own Zanpakuto and blocked the extending blade with the cutting edge of his Zanpakuto yet he wasn't pushed back at all "You're going to try sneak attacks on me? with a Zanpakuto?...you must not know me at all...I'm the Squad 11 Captain, also known as the Kenpachi...I EXCEL IN ZANJUTSU!" Shiro then pushed back at Zero's Zanpakuto causing it to fly up into the air as Shiro's Zanpakuto then cut across Zero's chest causing Zero to shunpo back and hold his chest with his left hand "What's this? why am I being fed false data about you? Did I just underestimate you?" Zero's eyes then widened dramatically as he spoke "KAGIKO!!" Zero then pulled a remote out his pocket and pressed a button on it "That's enough of that you snake!"

~At Squad 12~

Kagiko sat in Zero's office on his chair at Zero's computer typing away "Oh~ What's this Zero? you get all your data from everyone with the use of this computer? Impressive...you have everything down here....But that man you are likely fighting now...Shiro Sora...let us change his records...let's make him...average in Zanjutsu, His Hakuda is just awful! His kido is just...well that needn't be changed....and his Shunpo? well...he is oh so very slow..." Kagiko then chuckled a little as he pressed enter changing the records "You shouldn't rely on a computer Zero...it may let you win a fight against anyone but when someone like me comes along and messes things up...oh well that changes everything..." Kagiko then noticed a red light on the roof flashing as thousands of blades flew out of the walls from all directions towards Kagiko "Bankai..." The blades then all suddenly bent and hit everywhere around Kagiko, a scratch not being landed on him "As if I'd fall for such a trick...how silly of you Zero..." Kagiko then continued to type on the computer then began changing various things as he hacked into it. "Now...you're going to try blow up the computer aren't you?" A pop up on the computer then appeared with the words "Remote detonation denied" This then caused Kagiko to chuckle as he could only imagine Zero's face right now..

~Back at the forest~

Zero had pulled out another remote and began pressing the button rapidly "Explode! explode! explode!!! Dammit explode!!! Kagiko!!! what the hell did you do!?...it seems I underestimated you...damn you Kagiko!" Zero then threw the remote at the floor causing it to shatter as his eyes the widened as Shiro towered over him "Whats wrong? Your plans going to shit? He's a smart guy aint he? Let's see just how much damage he's done to you..." Shiro then grinned as he began slashing at Zero, every time Zero went to block he had already be cut, this caused him to use shunpo to get away but Shiro was in his face once again cutting him again. Damn you Kagiko! I should have expected this from you...but you changed your own records...without my knowing...I never thought anything of it...now you're using my own creation against me! I despise you Kagiko...with every fibre of my being I despise you! Zero then shunpoed back again and prepared to release his Bankai when Shiro's Zanpakuto pierced through his chest causing his eyes to widen "Seems he really did a number on you...I don't understand much right now...but I know you were getting your data on everyone from your sneaky little computer...so I can guess he changed shit about me...and you can't help but expect my sword swings to be slower...yet in truth they are so fast you don't know you've been cut until the cut has been completed...So...I think it's time we erase that memory of yours don't you?" Zero's eyes widened as he then went to slash at Shiro only for his wrist to be caught by Shiro's left hand then Zero's eyes widened immensely as he heard his right wrist begin to crack as Shiro's grip tightened, Shiro then slammed his right foot into Zero's gut and pulled Zero's right arm causing it to dislocate as he then tore his Zanpakuto out of Zero and pushed him to the floor with his right foot "It's because of you Kurisa Kuchiki died isn't it?...You were working with those fuckers all along...you knew he'd be the only one to go there and wouldn't work with others...I despise trash like you...I'm going to fucking gut you for the shit you've done to us all..." Zero looked at Shiro weakly then spoke "I do as I'm ordered...Kurisa Kuchiki had to die...he was becoming to strong...plus my Master wanted his Zanpakuto for himself...I only wish I got to relay the data about you...now we have another problem...in fact...we now have a few..." Shiro grit his teeth then rammed his Zanpakuto into Zero's gut "It's because of you I could not earn my way to the top! I wanted to become the strongest by beating Kurisa Kuchiki! I didn't want to earn it because of his death!! You took that away from me you piece of shit!" Shiro then pulled his Zanpakuto out of Zero's gut then pierced it into Zero's left shoulder "It's no fun stabbing someone who feels no pain...you're a bore...I have one thing I need to do before I kill you...." Shiro then pulled out the syringe from his Haori then crouched down over Zero "Even if you do survive somehow...you'll be brain dead..."

~Flashback to earlier~

(This was a part I left out on purpose)

Kagiko handed the Syringe to Shiro, this caused Shiro to look at it then speak "What the hell is this?" Kagiko smiled at Shiro then spoke "Just use it when you get the chance...it's meant for Zero...lets just say he wont remember to much after it..." Kagiko then tapped his head and chuckled "You best go before he get's impatient...oh and...aim directly for the forehead...don't worry...it will go through..."

~Back to the forest~

Shiro then stabbed the syringe into Zero's forehead then injected it causing Zero's eyes to widen the glaze over as Shiro pulled the Syringe out and stood up "You got everything you deserved..." Shiro then rammed his Zanpakuto into Zero's head and then pulled it out as he then began walking off, sheathing his Zanpakuto "I'll see you in hell you piece of shit..." Shiro then began making his way back to the Seireitei, the task done...

Bleach: A New Dawn

AbigailTenshi said Rio sniffed as Kaizo spoke and broke the hug. She looked up at him, questioning nothing, if anything, she was happy to hear this... Since she too had to choose between being professional and being a girlfriend whenever she was with Kaizo... It had gotten to the point where she just chose to be professional all the time since it was the safest and easiest thing to do to stop their relationship from being discovered. However, this in turn meant Rio had unknowingly distanced herself from Kaizo, something that took her up until now to realise. Considering her personal state and situation at the moment, distancing herself was definitely something she didn't want to do... It wouldn't help at all, if anything it'd make her situation worse and harder to deal with. Kaizo then picked her up, which caused Rio's eye to widen a little from the sudden action, however she just simply smiled at Kaizo, a small but genuine smile. Her head was still throbbing, but she had forgotten about the pain, too focused on Kaizo to notice it. Kaizo had ordered the other Shinigami to train, while Rio gave them a stern look. Even though she was in Kaizo's arms, that didn't mean her professional attitude towards those she worked with had changed.

After Kaizo shupo'ed back to the barracks, Rio looked up to him while he spoke, still in his arms. She looked down when he mentioned Captain Kuchiki... he was right, they couldn't let themselves be dragged down by this, she couldn't let herself either... After closing her eye, Rio sighed. "Don't be sorry... It's the enemy that should be sorry. You're completely correct Captain. I promise you, I won't let Captain Kuchiki down by wallowing in sorrow... I will not stand by and watch anyone else be murderer.... Indeed they have no idea what they've just started... This is more than just a war now...." Rio slid out of Kaizo's arms, standing once again while straightening out her clothes and eye-patch. Looking up at Kaizo, she gave a look of pure determination... She had cried enough, it was time to grow stronger... Not just for Captain Kuchiki, but for everyone she cared about, including for her Captain and partner Kaizo.

Kaizo listened to Rio then nodded "Well they don't know what's coming...well then we best all do Captain Kuchiki proud shouldn't we? Let's get to training. I intend to step up the Onmitsukido's training but putting myself personally into it...they will need to be far more skilled before we go to war...I trust you can handle the rest of Squad 2? It's important we train our Squad and make them stronger as a whole...it's no good just us getting stronger...we have the numbers over the enemy, or so we think...but regardless the stronger the Shinigami we have the better chance we have of winning...it's no good this war being fought by just us Captains and Lieutenants..."
