You are Kusajishi Riku, Captain of the Seireitei Court Guard's Ninth Division, and you've begun to wonder how strange Ichigo and Tatsuki's classmates really are.

One of them, the blonde one with the enormous chest who seemed to be an old friend of Tatsuki's, seems to have an ability that exceeds what any human should be able to do: controlling space and time to “reverse” events. Her memories were restored somehow after being blocked by the Onmitsu at your request, meant as a safeguard for the students caught in the hollow attack where Tatsuki first awakened her abilities, and she's just reversed the injuries Ishida and Sado incurred in their brief fight with Muramasa. There's really no telling at this point what her ability may or may not be capable of achieving.

You sense a battle is brewing between Byakuya and an unfamiliar shinigami, which must be the senior Kuchiki freed by Muramasa. Other shinigami are arriving as well, and you can feel the world around you strain from the force of dozens if not hundreds of hollows pushing through the dangai to converge on the battlefield.

“Those powers,” Tenkotsuki mutters. “What she is doing defies the limits set for mere mortals. How is such a thing even possible?”

“I don't know,” you frown, “but as soon as Muramasa's dead I think we need to find out.”

“Hm?” the strange girl with the impossible ability looks at you in blissful ignorance. “Are you talking to me?”

“No,” you shake your head.

“She appears to be reversing changes in 'pattern', in the physical sense,” Tenkotsuki posits quietly, “essentially reverting an object to a previous state. I do not know how, nor do I know how closely Sado's current state mirrors his original state. Regardless, I believe that she is not an individual who should be left alone.”

You kneel next to the girl as she puts the finishing touches on Sado's wounds. “Did you come here alone, Inoue?”

She nods, still focused on the task of closing a deep slash across Ishida's chest. “I did. I looked for Tatsuki and Ichigo first, but neither of them are back yet. I'm worried... first everyone else seems to forget you and Kuchiki were ever here, then Tatsuki disappears with everyone else?”

“What if she doesn't come back?”

“She'll be back,” you assure Inoue, waving at Ishida as the light from the little dome above him briefly flickers. “Don't let me sidetrack you.”

“Right... sorry, Ishida.”

You take out your denreishinki and contact Hisagi, telling him to meet you at your current location but refusing to go into any greater detail. Then you turn to explain the situation to Inoue.

“Someone will be by here in a moment to look out for you,” you tell her. “When these two idiots are ready to be moved I want you to take them to the Kurosaki clinic. Tell them I sent you. Understand?”

Inoue nods quietly, and a few moments later Hisagi arrives. He initially balks at being assigned what to any shinigami's mind must seem like a glorified babysitting detail, but changes his tune when you remind him that three humans with spiritual powers will likely be targeted by hollows during the battle while everyone else is too busy to notice.

“When they're ready take her to the Kurosaki clinic in town, then rejoin us,” you tell him.

Next to him manifests a dark, wild-looking figure: Kazeshini, you figure. His sudden appearance startles the blonde girl behind him.

“You really gonna just take this?” Kazeshini demands.

Hisagi nods grimly. “I am. Those are my orders, and by extension they're yours as well.

“So unless you'd prefer it if I got stuck on cleaning duty for the next month or two...”

“Ugh!” Kazeshini grunts in disgust. “Hell no!”

“Good. Then we've got a job to do.”

You give Hisagi an approving nod, but a burst of reiatsu in the distance demands your attention. It takes you only a few moments to reach the scene, but what you find is disheartening: a veritable sea of gillians has pooled amid the low hills outside Karakura town, having dripped one by one from a crack in the sky like a leaky faucet. At the center of the formation is a smaller hollow, about the size of a Vasto Lorde, but with utterly inhuman features. The only things that tell you this was once Muramasa are the purplish-blue fringe around its waist and the slit in its mask, shaped like his sword's guard.

>>47251708
You're not alone however. A corps of Onmitsu have come through to secure the area, along with their Commander Yoruichi. She stands next two two other Captains as they assess the situation: Hitsugaya to her left, and Suì Fēng to her right. Already Rangiku, Mirai, Kai, Renji, Madarame, and Ayasegawa have taken off towards the gillians to try and thin their numbers, each with their manifested zanpakuto in tow.

You take your place at Yoruichi's side.

"He finally lost it," she explains, knowing full well that she's simply stating the obvious to a degree. "If more gillians keep coming through like that we'll have to call for backup."

"How should we handle this?" Hitsugaya frowns. "We all have our personal reasons to fight Muramasa, but according to the Head Captain you have the best chance at killing him, Kusajishi."

Ideally, Riku and Yoru will keep Muramasa tangled and distracted up close, Hitsugaya would go for a distanced lockdown to present Sui Feng with a KO blow.

Of course, an instant power up from Muramasa afterwards is not out of the question.

Riku is the dreaded to Muramasa, if we bring them along, then he'll just go for the others instead of us. Riku keeps him occupied, they close the leaky faucet (or we kick Muramasa into Mexico via the open garganta) and we isolate muramasa from the rest.

“Yeah, fair enough,” you nod. “Let's kick his ass together.”

“I was hoping you'd say that,” Suì Fēng admits next to you. “I'll admit, this has gotten rather personal.”

The hollow that was once Muramasa lets loose another burst of powerful reiatsu, and despite the bravado it becomes clear exactly how many hollows he must have consumed to attain this level of raw spiritual power. This isn't a fight that can be won by taking half-measures.

“He wanted to witness my swords in action,” you comment with a wry grin. “This probably isn't what he intended, but it's the fate he earned himself.”

“Prohibit, Tenkotsuki!”

A chilly blast of air to your side tells you that Hitsugaya is going all-out from the start. “Bankai: Daiguren Hyōrinmaru!”

“Sting all enemies to death, Suzumebachi!” Suì Fēng releases her sword. It's not large or imposing in any way, but combined with shunkō you realize that it may be a key ability in defeating Muramasa quickly.

Yoruichi tosses one of her butterfly swords in a high arc above her head as she releases it. “Purr, Raijūsenkō!”

“We'll create an opening,” Yoruichi tells her younger protegee, the one who replaced you in that role after you made Captain. “Can you do it?”

“I have to do it,” Suì Fēng replies coolly. “It's not a matter of can and can't, but one of necessity.”

“Hyōryū Senbi!” Hitsugaya roars, slinging a jagged arc of overflowing ice from his blade that freezes several tightly-packed gillians in place. Then with a second gesture he shatters the ice and sends about a dozen glistening spears tearing through the gillians behind those.

“Zekku!”

“This is it!” Yoruichi shouts, and the two of you dash in through the path of carnage. She shatters anything that gets in her way, keeping the lane clear for Suì Fēng as she follows behind you. You close the gap between Hitsugaya and Muramasa in seconds, before the bodies of the defeated gillians even hit the ground. The hollowfied zanpakuto spirit swings at you and Yoruichi with wicked blades that protrude from his elbows, the sheer power of his reiatsu in this form being sufficient to force you to dodge.

But you were counting on that reaction.

Muramasa's arms are stuck extended from his sides as you and your partner wind reiatsu chains around his wrists, bracing yourselves against the dirt as Suì Fēng darts through the last several meters with a shunpo.

“Nigeki Keisa...” she begins as she reappears, jabbing the hollow in its arm as it breaks one of the chains to defend itself. It delivers a powerful kick to her ribs, but instead of crying out Suì Fēng smirks in satisfaction.

“Gotcha!” a tiny voice shouts in triumph as Suzumebachi herself closes in for the kill.

Muramasa's arm disappears in an inky burst of reiatsu, completely destroyed. However it seems a part of him recognized the danger and severed his own arm just before Suzumebachi could deliver the final blow.

“Damn!” Yoruichi shouts as the four of you are forced back to avoid a cascade of obscenely powerful bala. “He's grown faster in this state, too!”
>1/2
>>
>>47252657
You don't exactly lose sight of him, but the suddenness of Muramasa's next move is enough to ensure that not even you and Yoruichi can catch him in time to prevent it. He uses not a shunpo, but a sonido, slashing through Hitsugaya's Bankai with a powerful sweep of his good arm that's followed immediately by a stream of bala.

“Hitsugaya!” Suì Fēng shouts in alarm.

“He's alive,” you quickly assure her as Muramasa's severed arm begins to grow back.

Uhhh... not so much. The general area effect is from Tenkotsuki's bankai, and they'd have to get way the hell out of the area to get clear of its effect.

What Kobara no Tachi does is more like hydrostatic shock, but with cero.

“We should close in,” you decide, sheathing Tenkotsuki for the time being. “One of us sees an opportunity they take it.”

“Right,” Suì Fēng agrees, Suzumebachi tucking herself away in her sash for a surprise attack.

Yoruichi grins confidently. “Right behind you.”

The three of you take off in Muramasa's direction, and as you close in you find yourself stuck in place by what feels like a spider's web. It seems Muramasa's used one of his little tricks and set up a web of invisible kidō strands that are holding you in place. Luckily you've had training for such a situation. With a roar you spin in place, putting immense strain on the invisible strands and making it easier for a series of well-placed swings of Yoruichi's clawed fingers to slice through them.

As she's freeing you Muramasa slings a cloud of bala at Suì Fēng, warding off another assault with Suzumebachi but leaving him open to you and your partner. Yoruichi's fingertips dig into his chitinous arms with each swing, but she seems not to be able to land a decisive hit. He's just a little too quick, able to take the momentum of each blow and redirect it just enough to keep his arms attached and letting his regenerative abilities handle the gouges she's taking out of him.

Your own blows seem to amount to little more than a distraction, as his hierro is taking most of the impact out of them, but even giving Yoruichi one moment to land a clean strike is worth it. However it seems Yoruichi has other plans.

Muramasa tries to slash at her, but Yoruichi manages to sink her claws deeply into his sword arm to stop the movement and render the hollow all but helpless. A powerful kick to the solar plexus sends him reeling straight towards you.

“Raze,” you command, drawing Tenkotsuki's blade, “Kobara no Tachi!”

>>47253286
>“Raze,” you command, drawing Tenkotsuki's blade, “Kobara no Tachi!”

>>47253286
With a single sonido Muramasa moves behind you, leaving an illusory clone in hopes that you'll strike it. But you've long since wised up to this sort of trick, and instead you stop partway through the draw. Using a turn of your hips to reverse your momentum allows you to strike upwards with the blunt end of Tenkotsuki's sheath as you pull it off her blade in a smooth reverse-gripped thrust that rips off one of his hands. You thrust your double-released blade towards the hollow, pushing off a thin layer of reishi gathered at your feet... and as he dodges to your right the thrust bends instantly into a slash that rips into his abdomen.

Reiatsu blooms as Rosa's power uses it to fuel a cero that rips the slash open from within, propelling Muramasa back towards a waiting Yoruichi. As lightning leaves a crackling trail behind her foot, she drops a massive axe kick to the top of Muramasa's skull.

He hurtles towards the ground, body limp as a sack of potatoes, and leaves a massive crater where he falls.

Now that she's recovered Suì Fēng dashes into the column of dust, then re-emerges after kicking off her back foot. A burst of reiatsu from below tells you that she's hit her mark.

"Everything went better than expected," Suzumebachi quips.

Her wielder merely shakes her head. "Why would you say that? Why would you EVER say that?"

Negatory. When both are released Kobara no Tachi converts Tenkotsuki's blade into a style of sword referred to by its distinctive point: "kissaki moro ha zukuri" or "Kogarasu zukuri", where the back third or so of the blade is also sharpened. In this case instead of looking like a "curved jian" as is historically more common the result is a little more "talon-like" due to the fact that the edge follows the spine all the way to the point.

“Wait,” you caution them both. “It can't have been that easy.”

Sure enough, the smoke finally clears to reveal Muramasa – badly wounded but still very much alive.

“How!?” Suzumebachi wonders aloud as the hollow takes slowly to the sky.

Suì Fēng grimaces and raises one hand, but you wave her off again. “Just wait for it.”

As Muramasa raises his head to stare at you, anger almost palpable from here, a chill fills the air again. Pillars of reiatsu-laden ice rise from the ground, rotating in a ring around the stunned hollow before rushing inward to slam him into the center of a frigid prison.

“NOW!” you hear Hitsugaya shout from somewhere below you.

“Sprinkled on the bones of the beast!” you hear Suì Fēng beginning to chant. “Sharp tower, red crystal, steel ring. Move and become the wind, stop and become the calm. The sound of warring spears fills the empty castle!”

Next to you Yoruichi begins to chant as well, using the energy released by her Raijūsenkō to further empower the already obscenely powerful spell. The solid lightning arcs wildly around her, each arc meeting at the center of her outstretched palm.

You hear Tenkotsuki chanting for you as you extend her blade towards the heart of the icy prison, and lances of dense reiatsu build all around you.

“Hadō 63: Raikōhō!” Suì Fēng shouts, loosing a powerful bolt of lightning.

“Hadō 88: Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō!” Yoruichi cries, bracing her hand by grabbing her wrist to withstand the immense force of her own attack. The reishi claws at her feet tear into the air to maintain a foothold through the firing.

Your voice joins theirs as you release your own attack. “ Hadō 91: Senjū Kōten Taihō!”

Spears of reiatsu and columns of lightning converge in a blast so powerful that it sends several of your lower-ranked fighters tumbling through the air, and outright kills several gillians who strayed too close and were crushed under the pressure.

And yet, he still stands. Regenerating far more slowly than before, and struggling to do even that, but still far more alive than anyone else in his position would have any right to be.

“Really!?” Yoruichi groans in frustration.

Tenkotsuki sighs. “It seems his expression of shinreiryoku is linked to his desperation to stay alive long enough to rescue his master, rather than taking a more aggressive form. It is pure survival instinct.”

“So he's immortal,” Rosa sums up. “Great. Love it. Can we just kill it now, please?”

Quick question
Should we use
Those?
>>
>>47254099
perhaps, but I personally think we may to resort to "That"
>>
>>47254064
since we're casting Ura Hado on the mortal plane (Northern kurakara town), how many divine gods are currently watching the shit that's going down? (Soul King, Inari, Izanagi, etc.)

“I guess I don't have much choice,” you admit quietly, your voice echoing ever so slightly from Rosa's influence. “I really hoped not to have to use this, since I have no idea how much it'll take out of me, but the longer this goes the more danger everyone will be in. So I'll end it.”

“Hold him.”

Yoruichi extends her hands, abandoning her chant. “Bakudō 79: Kuyo Shibari!”

“Bakudō 30,” Suì Fēng joins in, tracing a triangle in the air with her hand, “Shitotsu Sansen!”

Three fangs of yellow light slam into Muramasa's body, further pinning him as you close the distance with hirenkyaku and extend your left palm. An orb of compressed azure flames builds in your palm, and for an instant you feel a familiar power usually reserved for your Bankai flow through you.

“Saishodō – Sōgenbi!”

The blast of blue flames engulfs Muramasa, provoking an unearthly howl of pain as it sears away the bony armor that protects him. Even his massively overpowered regenerative abilities won't save him, completely shut down by the Sōgenbi's power.

It's actually a mercy when you slice through his head with your combined release... but it seems Muramasa's not done with you yet.

You suddenly find yourself in a completely different environment, profoundly exhausted by the exertion of using Sōgenbi. Beneath your feet is a stone pillar of sorts, and all around are similar pillars amidst an endless sea. Upon one of them stands a familiar man.

“You...” Muramasa mutters, uncertain. “What are you doing here?”

You shrug. “I have no damn idea where this place is, let alone how I got here. As for you, you're dead. I killed you.”

“No,” Muramasa shakes his head. “Not really. You destroyed my manifested form, yes. But tell me, where does a zanpakuto truly reside?”

Tenkotsuki seems shocked enough for both of you. “How can we be inside that Kuchiki boy's inner world?”

“No way that's possible,” you agree.

“Nevertheless, you are here,” Muramasa counters glibly, drawing his sword. “Shall we continue?”

>You know, Muramasa, this is a good point for you to CUT IT THE FUCK OUT.

“Just... stop,” you sigh, sheathing your swords and sealing them both. “Why are you even doing any of this?”

“Why?” Muramasa repeats. “Why else? To free my master of course! The man who was driven out of the Soul Society, who went mad because of their rejection! He had so much power, so much potential, and yet he met such a pitiful end... I could never condone such a thing.”

“Bullshit,” you snarl. “You freed him, but instead of fighting with him you lost your sanity and hollowfied? That's not how I'd choose to celebrate being reunited with my swords. Not even close.”

“... he abandoned you, didn't he?”

The look in Muramasa's eyes betrays the truth, even if he can't bring himself to admit it.

“Even after all you did on his behalf he refused to recognize you,” Tenkotsuki mutters quietly, standing at your side. Apparently she's totally free to manifest herself in this space. “You were convinced that by freeing him you could regain his acknowledgment. Acknowledgment you somehow lost years ago, before his slide into madness.”

“You're correct,” Muramasa admits, lowering his blade. “His own ambition and the fear others felt towards his skill... mistakes were made, and after realizing his life as a member of the Gotei 13 had ended he slowly gave in to paranoia until he could no longer hear my voice.”

He glares at you angrily, like a wounded predator who knows he's been beaten. “But how could you understand that feeling of betrayal, when a shinigami forsakes their own zanpakuto? When such hatred exists between two parts that should exist in balance and harmony?”

“You idiot,” Rosa growls.

“It's not that I can't feel any sympathy towards your situation,” you admit sternly, “because I definitely can. But in turning zanpakuto against their wielders you were inflicting the same sense of pain and betrayal on all of them. So what sympathy I do feel is far overwhelmed by disgust.”

“Those shinigami were all...” he begins to protest, but you interrupt him.

“Completely innocent,” you observe. “Many of them weren't even alive when your wielder was banished and sealed. They have nothing at all to do with it, so why did they deserve what you did to them?”

“There are people who died, Muramasa. You forced their zanpakuto to kill them... that can't be rationalized away, and it can't ever be forgiven.”

Muramasa's sword clatters to the pillar beneath him, and he falls to his knees. He knows what he's done is unforgivable: perhaps he even knew it all along. But having it pointed out to him so plainly, after having failed to win back his wielder? It's broken him.

“Unacceptable,” he mutters to himself. “To have been chastised by a woman who is my enemy. Completely unacceptable, and yet... you're right.”

“I hope that you and your zanpakuto can remain this way, Captain. I hated you for it so much, but at the same time to see it is almost reassuring.”

“We all would like think the world of our wielders,” Tenkotsuki explains quietly, “just as every shinigami believes at some point that their zanpakuto is the greatest. I too can understand your feelings. I will hold no grudge.”

“Whether I hold a grudge or not is my own concern,” Rosa grumbles. “All I care about now is getting out of here.”

“I think it's time for this to end, Muramasa,” you suggest. “What do you think?”

“I think you're right,” he agrees. “But you don't need my help to do so.”

“He is correct,” Tenkotsuki agrees with a nod, disappearing back into your mind. “Our Bankai will break any connection keeping us here.”

“Well then, let's get to it,” you reply, waving for Rosa to join her. “All aboard.”

When you finally return to the living world it's with a sudden burst of reiatsu, and you find yourself standing right next to an insane-looking man with a streak of violet hair and a shihakusho, with gaunt features and some sort of strap across the bridge of his nose. This must be Kōga. You can feel Yoruichi closing in on you at breakneck speed.

You immediately ignore your exhaustion and punch him in the mouth.

“Who the hell are you!?” Kōga demands loudly.

You shrug. “Friend of the family.”

He opens his mouth, presumably to hurl another insult, but you ram your fist into it a second time. This time you chip one of his teeth in the process.

“You're really not going to dodge any of these?”

With an inarticulate roar he swings the halberd in his hand at you, only to find it blocked by Muramasa.

“What are you doing here again?” Kōga hisses. “I thought you and I both knew where we stood?”

“I do,” Muramasa agrees, grabbing his wielder around the torso and locking his wrists behind the crazed shinigami's back. “So I'm doing what I should have done centuries ago.”

“Whatever you're going to do, do it now!”

“Kuyo Shibari,” you declare, binding both shinigami and zanpakuto in place.

“Your call, Byakuya,” you announce as Yoruichi arrives on scene. “This is your family's affair now, I have no right to interfere.”

“Rikujōkōrō,” you add, slamming another binding spell down onto an already helpless Kuchiki Kōga.

Tenkotsuki chuckles to herself. “You know, were it not for the severity of the moment I would find this quite amusing.”

“I see,” Byakuya bows slightly to you. “Thank you for your consideration.”

He raises his sword and holds it out in front of himself, point-down.

He pauses there, on the verge of releasing Bankai.

Then he sheaths his sword and picks up one of the halberds. “These should still work on two subjects.”

“You're seriously putting me back into the seal?” Kōga scoffs. “You can't really believe you're being kind?”

You elbow the older Kuchiki in the mouth to shut him up. “That's not it at all, moron.”

Between you, Byakuya, and Yoruichi, sealing the pair is no problem at all.

“So why the change of heart? You came all this way to kill Kōga, didn't you?”

“I did,” Byakuya replies calmly. “This is merely a slower means of doing so. He will eventually die as his reiryoku dissipates. Over that time, the zanpakuo known as Muramasa will have plenty of time.”

“Or they'll hate each other to the last,” you observe. “Whether this was a kindness or a punishment is entirely up to them.”

“Either way, they will not be returning,” Byakuya concedes. “So whether they reconcile or not is none of my concern.”

Deep down, you really think he's pulling for Muramasa... or at least you'd like to think so.

“Now,” Yoruichi sighs, “what do we do about that?”

She's pointing at a hole in the sky that the gillians are still pouring through. Just because the force pulling them through has been sealed away won't undo the damage.

Hitsugaya crashes next to you after blocking a surprise cero with the wings of his Bankai.

“You're the menos expert in the Gotei 13,” he pants. “I'm open to suggestions.”

“What else?” you reply , drawing your swords. “We kill 'em until we run out.”

“I was expecting something more complicated.”

You shrug. “Sometimes, the best plan is not to overthink it.”

At this point, have all the zanpakuto reconciled with their wielders, or are there still hold-outs?

>They're going to die in there unless some moron on the outside decides to do something about it.

Always a risk after a few hundred years.

Although if Muramasa ends up reconciling with Koga it will a different person who steps out and if they don't they may kill each other.
>>
>>47257039
There are still some hurt feelings, particularly with Renji. Zabimaru were still... you know. Looking for Riku after all the others were free.

Whoops.

>>47257082
Yes.

>>47257033
I could see aizen doing that if he needed a distraction.

With Muramasa sealed, can the zanpakuto no longer manifest? Aside from Tenkotsuki & Rosa, who do all the time anyways?

Oh right Renji. I'm not really sure why he's -our- problem all of a sudden.

>>47257127
if they do reconcile, can we have an omake detailing the drama between Koga and Muramasa?
>>
>>47257425
I was just considering that. I may give a brief write-up next week.

>>47257377
They can, and will be able to do so for a certain amount of time. A few of the more powerful of them may retain that ability longer than in canon, while many of the Captains will be spending much more time in jinzen as a result of this event.

>>47257695
any pastebin changes? The stunt we pulled on Muramasa, getting physically sucked into koga's innerworld after burning Muramasa with Sogenbi and walking out unscathed, and letting Byakuya have the final say in family affairs would surely cause changes in Riku's social links in the following:
>Kuchiki family, Byakuya
>The Royal Guard
>Soul King
>The entire Shinto pantheon
>Mommy Inari
>Muramasa and Koga
>lil' Shiro.
>lil Bee.
>Chad (he's not screaming in pain from a pulped up right arm)
>Uryu Ishida (he got jobbed again)
That's the most I can think of for any possible social link changes.
