Opening Theme: Nokorikaze by Ikimonogakari
*****
I swung my sword down, but Ace used a move similar to Shunpo, so all there was below me was the ground. When I hit the ground, it made a huge sound, and made a hole. Without hesitating, I made my next move. This time, Ace didn't move, but took out his sword and guarded himself. "So you have gone stronger, haven't you, Ace?" and grinned.
"Well, well. I'm glad that you became a Taichou, Crystal. How wonderful." and Ace pushed me back.
I stood up straight, and looked straight into his eyes, and also let my arm hang with my Zanpakuto in hand. "Remember those days? We always had fun together. But now, you're on the Arrancar's side. And if you had to, you would kill me, won't you?"
"If that was my mission, then yes, I would." and ran towards me.
"Bakudou no 39, Encosen!" and a thin wall appeard in front of me, and block Ace's attack. I broke the shield and sliced his chest with a swing.
Ace backed off. "Well... Thats something you barely did."
I ran after him, swinging my sword and trying to make him drop his sword. When Ace tripped and fell, I knew I had my chance, so I swong my sword aiming for the top part of his stalk, but Tousen Kaname appeared between Ace and me, and blocked my attack.
I yelled, "TOUSEN!" and pushed harder, like I'm pushing a big boulder.
Tousen didn't care what I did. He just faced Ace. "Ace, Aizen-sama is calling you. Imediately we're going back."
"Fine, fine." he took his sword and stood up. Tousen pushed my sword out of the way, and swung his sword, but I jumped back before he can touch me.
Tousen lightly touched the air, and from there, there was a portal that lead outside of the Human world, and into the world between the Live and Dead. Tousen and Ace stepped into there.
"Wait, Ace! Are you escaping?"
"How am I suppose to fight you when Aizen-sama is calling me?" and the portal closed.
"ACE!!! ACE!!!!" dam it! I tightened the grip on my Zanpakutou. Ichigo came rushing towards me.
"Crystal. Are you ok?" he asked. I softend my grip, and put my sword back.
"Yes, I'm fine, Ichigo." but he knew that I wasn't 100% fine. I can tell myself that I had a sad expression on my face.
From that time, I knew that something bad is going to happen, not just in this Human World, but also in the Soul Socitey...
