The Menos roar as Sosuke's and my eyes meet, sharing our concern that the quincy whore has slipped from our grasps to wreck havoc and chaos again. His smile however doesn't fade, as we share this moment of understanding and worry. Lowering his head, he pushes his glasses up as the world seems to begin again, Kaname's yelling cut off as the menos screams loudly at each other, challenging us or each other. The cannibal menos looks to me as I turn to it, my blood soaked zanpakuto almost drooling with anticipation.

We're all injured, torn to pieces. If I was anyone else, without my own inborn stubbornness and refusal to die in dishonor, I'd be dead. if I was anyone else, if I was not the aberration I was, I'd be dead and ripped to pieces. Maybe these hollows knows what I am? Well, if they do, they'll take my secret to their graves.

"That is most.....disconcerting" Sosuke says, sounding like he's frowning now "if you have not finished the quincy problem and she still moves freely then....no matter, there are bigger things to worry about in the here in now"

"Yeah, like the two menos out for mine and kaname's blood!" I yell swinging my claymore around and gripping its hilt in both hands, its blood red ribbon flowing past my free and wild white hair

"Yes, that!" Kaname yells just to be heard "I was worried we'd be left to face these two monsters on our own, but I did not expect them to send someone of your caliber"

Keeping my sword raised, I squint my eyes. I know why they sent aizen, or why he sent himself. The quincy or worry I'd be forced to use my mask. Both would be rather troubling for those who know of either secret.

"That's not the only reason why he came here" I say softly

"Two menos appearing so close together is a rare occurrence and a troubling, and the knowledge that our foe was the cause....well they were easily convinced I was necessary, in fact if we do not clean up quickly they're send a captain" Sosuke says calmly "so enough talking, we now have our duties to preform"

"Well doesn't that make you feel proud Kimi? we've survived a danger that needs a captain to resolve" Kaname says "though, I suppose you had no doubt in yourself"

"Of course not" I say calmly, as the meno's with the odd mask decides I am the greatest danger to it now and moves to bite me in twain"And neither should you, now listen to the lieutenant and shut up"

"As you say, Kemuri sama"

I run my hand over the crimson stained edge of Ryūketsu no kōtei, feeling its hunger and desire for battle as the warmth of the blood slicking it passes into my hand, leaving cold metal behind before Kotei drools out more of her and bloody's "Meal". The handful of blood turns to a near perfect sphere, floating and turning above my hand as I stare down at the abyss in the menos' mouth.

Stepping to the side, I toss it into its open maw, and force it down its throat by clenching my hand into a fist and swinging it down. the hollow stops, confused as to how it swallowed a piece of me without even starting its bloody feast. I answer it by spreading my fingers, feeling a crushing pressure on my mind as I try to force my blood through its massive body, to influence its twisted cobwebs of minds inside of it. Yeah, this thing is much more....fractured than the average hollow, that's for sure. We struggle, the other hollow taking its time to move closer to it, nearly sending me down its back before it stops as Sosuke moves between it and the former.

I turn to him, gripping my arm with my other as it begins to shake from the effort this battle of many wills is forcing upon me.

He's hesitiating, if even for a moment.

"Aizen, is something troubling you?" I ask, looking down at him as he begins to draw his own zanpakuto. He smiles as he glances up at me, worry hidden in his eyes.

"Oh, its nothing just a feeling" he says softly, courteously "a gut feeling"

"Which are often more" I say pausing as I struggle to continue my blood's spread "Truthful than actual knowledge"

"Yes, but I don't want to worry Mr tosen, I just feel these aren't the most dangerous enemies around us, or the end of this battle" He says, as I grip my arm, digging my nails into my skin to try and focus my spiritual energy easier

Yeah, it does feel like there's more to come somehow, but I'm not sure as to what. The quincy may return or....she had better bait than I could smell. Either option both excites and angers me. Tosen hasn't been in the thick of this battle yet, due to me opening the paths for him, using my own body as a shield but....as much as I worry about him he wouldn't leave m me, He cares and idolizes me too greatly to turn tail and flee while he is nigh unharmed from the fight. Especially on just a feeling, even if it is from the gut and heart.

I close my eyes, looking for an excuse as I feel my blood drip and ebb its way through the menos' body as it roars in agony. It comes to me. the hollows that survived the slaughter fled, and are no doubt beginning their hunt

"KANAME!" I roar, as I force my blood deeper into the menos' being "Retreat from here"
>>
>>2178491

"Kimi, I am not leaving you, I am not even injured!" He yells "there is no reason to worry about my safety. I know acting as a wall is in your nature, but you know I am not helpless, even if you fear losing another friend, I know I will not bring you that pain! In good conscious I cannot abandon you and the Lieutenant even if I am sure of your power and skills, even if it would endanger myself. ON MY HONOR I WILL NOT RE"

"Kaname, the stragglers who escaped, the runts. Who do you think they're endangering?" I say calmly "I am not asking you this for your safety, I am commanding you for theirs"

"I....misunderstood, forgive me, I just....made an assumption that I shouldn't have" He says bowing your head "And the excitement hid that possibility from my mind, I swear on the same honor I invoked, I will not let them have a single meal this day"

I smirk as he runs off

"Oh you make quite the commander, Kimi" Aizen says teasing me as I finally spread my blood out enough, as the menos I'm standing on break out of the fear holding it in place "though it seems your ideals are spreading to your close friends now"

"they're good ideals to follow, and Kaname sees me as his hope, I think" I say softly "So, what kind of threat do you forsee"

"Something, if its anything more than a feeling, more troublesome than these two" He says, raising his zanpakuto "Now kimi, I am going to take down your steed, so I must apologize in advance"

He always takes things so casually.

I hold my hand up facing my palm towards the cannibalistic menos, picking up my zanpakuto from where I planted it in my "steeds" mask. Holding it high I take a long breath of cold air and nod.

"No need to, I was abandoning it anyways" I say calmly as I step forward, already feeling how Aizen will attack it. He has a certain calculated style, he'll want to topple it in as few strikes as possible, and there's no better way to bring a foe low besides crippling their limbs. Chop of the feet, and even the mighty menos becomes as threatening as a bundle of sticks.

Stepping into the air, Sosuke and I act in a natural sync from out years of training together. No plan, simple action. Battle in its purist form. The hollow struggles against my hold, as I fall towards its, taking a second step out of instinct as I pull my zanpakuto back and grip it between both my hands.

Swinging it forward, I slice into the hollows neck, cutting a deep wound into it, allowing more of its life blood to drain into my blade.

The serrated edge catches on its flesh as its painted, blushing mask looks down at me. Well, rather it tries to, as I am under its view. Behind me, the other menos howls in pain as one of its knees falls to the ground with a thud.

My legs drift in the air, as I realize I will fall if I stay hanging here any longer.

"Excellent form Kimi" Aizen says from somewhere under me "I truly need to see exactly how you continue to fight so fluidly even with what would be mortal or crippling wounds for others"

"You're sounding like you want to cut me up again" I groan under my breath

"Is figuring out how durable I am really important right now?" I ask as I saw my blade back and then push it forward, caring my way deeper into the menos neck as it hows and tries to figure out a way to dislodge me, biting at my legs as they hang uselessly in the air. I keep at my work, ignoring it by swinging my legs close to its neck and pushing them against it.

I rip my blade back and drive it deeper, more blood spilling out and filling my blood as it begins to drool down over my hands in a thick slurry.....just how much blood can my gluttonous spirits hold in themselves? this is beginning to worry me.

"Just idle curiosity, since I have always held back in our spars" Sosuke says kindly "Unless off course you were"

"I know I know" I say, shaking my head, remembering just how I gave him that scar "And I thought I told you to stop doing that"

"What can I say, I have a soft heart, now lets be silent and focus" He says, his voice turning stern and cold

I nod, not replying as I feel the hollow's "breath" on my back. In and instanct, I turn to smoke and curl around its back, reforming my upper body and leaving my legs and lower as embers and smoke.

Raising my blade, I try to plan how to continue my assault.

But the aching pain from this seemingly endless fight begins to way on me, and I hesitate. Something I don't often do once I've raised my blade. Sure I've drank blood once already, and knit my wounds together earlier, but as it stands I've been slowly worn back down like a blade that has seen constant use without proper care. I have no doubt these menos are on their last legs or will soon be teetering towards death if my instinct is wrong, I can't help but feel I should be cautious here and not underestimate something like a menos. Even if I have slain one before, this one is odd, different. So I'd do best to ensure it dies today so as not to become trouble some. Reforming my legs, so I can heal them without trouble, I raise my blade like a bottle of sake and open my mouth wide.

Hot blood flows into my mouth, tasting foul which is no surprise, given the source its come from, but no matter. this isn't for me to enjoy. Smacking my chest to help it go down, I shout and raise my blade up as I feel my pain beginning to fade away again as the blood mixes with my reiryoku. I think I'll draw out its blood, just to weaken it for my finishing.

It stands up tall as I grasp its blood with my hand. I begin to fall down its back, as it begins to turn around with what sounds like a mocking, almost feminine laugh

No time to waste. Pulling my hand up in a violent motion, I rip the blood from its veins on its back and move it to my legs, forcing it to curl and grab onto my legs like a squid's tentacles so I'll be held where I stand and can finish this

My eyes go wide as the menos shakes itself, causing my feet to slip against its now slick back. It turns and begins to move, opening its mouth wide, a distant red light burning inside of the abyss held between its jaws. Ah, so thats its plan, hold me in place and blast me to pieces with a cero so it can have what's left? Guess its tired of this little game, which is fine as so am I. I am done with this farce.

Gripping my zanpakuto with both hands, I trace it around my front and raise it, holding it out in front of me, just above my shoulder, ready to strike

It happens in a flash, I step up, moving the blood up around my legs, higher and tighter this time as the hollow moves to taking a bite out of me. I feel the excitement before the blade clash, the finishing swing. The boiling bloodlust inside of me cries out to be heard, and my calm expression breaks with a murderous grin. Its mouth opens wide, I spread my legs and turn my zanpakuto to the side, pressing my arms forward as its ribbon flows in the wind alongside my snow white hair and cobalt sash.

*Clrrrnk*

It bites down, my blood thirsty blade stuck between its mouth as it bends itself around, struggling to bite down harder to try and sever my arms. Our eyes meet, and through its cracked mask I can see the face it once had. Well one of its eyes at least, burning with fury. Just like mine

"Fool" I say dully "Don't you know pressing the attack to get in close, is a dangerous tactic not only for your foe, but you as well? One slip up and you'll end up missing your head or with your guts spilled out. You Rank amateur"

"Diiiiiieeeeeeee" it hisses or I think it does, may be my own rage speaking through it. I can here its cero beginning to gain power.

I grit my teeth, and open up my right hand, pressing my palm against the hilt of my zanpakuto as it sweats its blood.

"Ye lord! Mask of flesh and bone" I command, the smoke billowing around my hands slowly turn to blue as it dances around my fingers, the menos bites down, digging my zanpakuto deeper into its out jaw as it tries to bite into my arms "flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance"

It bites down hard as it cero begins to grow within its throat, I don't move an inch. The smoke in my palm gathers on my finger tips and palm as I finish my incantation

"Upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws!" I roar as it turns to fire, and bursts into the hollows throat, a blue torrent of fury and hate. its head flies back, burnt and covered in smoke. But then, then cero fires and they meet in its jaws. The hollow roars as I feel the energy push back against me. Its mask bleeds from its now missing eyes, cracking as the reiryoku both of us used begins to get bottled up and begins to threaten to explode outwards.

My thoughts exactly
>>
I click my tongue and without missing a moment, grab the crucifix shaped guard of my zanpakuto, with my right hand. Stabbing it upwards, I twist it around, getting its teeth locked in the hollows flesh. And when I'm sure I've got it trapped, I grab it by the blade and let it dig into my own flesh, covering it with more blood as, wincing from Kotei even now having an unquenchable hunger for my own blood.

I pull down, cutting into my palm deeper, using it to grip my blade all the better. Smirking, I use all of my strength to pull its mouth closed .

"Goodbye" I say, leaning back to free myself and my blade from its maw, grabbing onto the fresh hole I made in its mask to hold its mouth closed for this last second

The world vanishes in red light and dust, shards of mask and flesh falling around me as the cero and what's left of my spell fly free in its mouth, causing it to explode and shatter like an bowl dropped to the ground.

I huff, wiping the blood from my face with the back of my hand, lifting my blade up to drain it of what blood is left to fix my self inflicted wounds.

Then I hear clapping, and glanced down from the rapidly vanishing corpses I'm standing onto to see Sosuke finishing the other Menos with a simple stab to the back of its head

"Impressive as always, kimi" He says, smiling as I do the same and nod "won't be long until we share a station"

"I don't believe it will be so soon, but I have a feeling Old man Ginrei has been waiting for the chance" I chuckle

That string of fate one seems amusing, but I gotta go with one that's thematic to what all has happened here. Heavily scarred is also tempting, though.

"Still we should be on our guard, if that feeling you had was an omen of things to come" I say, wiping the blood dripping down from my mouth as Sosuke pulls his sword free from the motionless menos. He cleans it with his hand, still smiling as he always does. But then he frowns and looks up at me, as I step off the menos I brought down, walking on the blood stained ground. It brings back memories, both good and bad.

"What? do you think it was just a feeling?" I ask as he shakes his head

"but I am not sure it was immediate danger" He answers, looking up as the sun glares off his glasses "it was a feeling of dread, anxiety at what I suspect.....but if our luck is poor maybe we'll have a more challenging fight on our hands"

"As much as I pine for battle and desire to test myself, don't jinx it you idiot" I say bluntly "I might be nearly unbreakable and have the stamina of an ox, but that doesn't mean I can fight until the end of time you know"

"Oh well I better keep my mouth shut then" He laughs before his expression dims again, and he sighs "Still, I have a feeling that that quincy's continued life will produce horrors unseen by this world or the soul society especially if its as I fear"

"That she took your notes?" I say in a hushed tone, putting my hand on his shoulder

he looks up and nods

"Especially if she's desperate as I once was, I have a concious that tells me when avenues of research are too far, a line one shouldn't...should never even think of stepping over" He says, quietly "but her....she took my theorems and recordings of you, I fear....I fear you will not be the lone Shichūkū in this world kimi"

"Then we'll hunt her down, as soon as we can find her again, she is surrounded by fire, the next move she makes will burn her" I say, gripping his shoulder as we stand close

"She's a crafty woman" he says simply, lowering his head more "A very....very crafty woman, the only of her family that did not give into impatience and rage, honed by a lifetime of spite, I fear one thing more than her trying to replicate you. I fear her making a much worse monster than"

"Kemuri sama, Aizen sama" Tosen's voice calls out nearby "I have patrolled most of the city, and have not sensed any hollows nearby, they have probably fled back to their own world by now or simply died in the chaos of the battle.....Hmm, why are you two standing still, have you been exhausted by the battle"

I frown and turn to him, smiling before I turn back and look up at Aizen who's closed his eyes in thought, still hanging his head in worry as. My heart skips a beat as I realize what this must look like from another's eyes, with me standing so close to whisper to him, my hand on his shoulder and his head bowed like this. It seems I finally had a bit of luck today, as the one who came upon us first, rather than any reinforcements who'd get the wrong idea or spread rumors just for the fun of it, was my dear friend Kaname, who is not only blind but would probably balk at spreading slander like that

"Hmm oh no, we were simply having a small talk with each other" Aizen says with a smile "we should report back before they worry anymore about you two"

"Yeah, its a shame our teaching assignment was cut short" I sigh, crossing my arms as I step away from aizen "Still that gin kid you had with you seemed to have potential"

"Well they all do in some way or another" Kaname says warmly as Aizen just smirks, I know he doesn't see it the same way, since me and him are simple prodigies when it comes to our line of work

"And that concludes my report lord Kuchiki" I say, bowing my head as I sit across my lord and captain as he sips his tea while mine sits abandoned, steaming in front of me "The lost of the Todesjager has found someway to use other bodies as her puppets and has moved on to using innocent souls, living or dead in her crusade against the shinigami and the soul society"

Ginrei frowns and looks down at his tea, his wrinkled face heavy with stress, a feeling I had as soon as I walked in on him to give my report, as soon as I had apologized for being late in my duties today. He looks back up at me, taking a deep breath and sighing as his eyes lift up a bit more.

"Is that all there is to report? the quincy used....some foul surgical procedure to implant hollow bait into a living mans body and used those....strings of hers to guide his broken body as a living lure" He says with pure disgust, particularly at the last point, looking almost enraged by it. But he keeps his composure and continues after pausing as if reflecting on some old memory "and in that she called a massive horde of hollows to attack you And Tosen Kaname, hopping to be your death, using multiple bodies at most four, correct"

"Yes" I say with a courteous nod, he lowers his head, and takes another drink of tea

"And you used yourself as a distraction so he could engage with her, and around this time the menos showed themselves?" he asks as I nod again

"After I thinned the herd abit" I say with a smile, he frowns and nods

"You still need to learn to be less reckless" He sighs, rubbing his temple "However, your skill and abilities continue to...not disappoint me, in fact they continue to impress, and your quick thinking of sending the academy students to safety as well as coordinating with your comrade shows your continued growth in the way of the soul reaper"

"remember, I focus on the duties given to me by my lord, and have studied war since I was a girl" I say happily as he nods

"Yes, it is why I snatched you up as a tutor for my grand-son" he says happily before he gets serious again "and your success, and growth over these years, as well as your reliable nature and natural sense of duty make me believe you are ready to move up the ladder as it were , as your continue to hone your power and skills at an almost alarming rate"

"Well I am having trouble mastering a few kido spells" I say, bowing my head "and I still haven't found out how to move as fast as most shinigami"

"yes but you make up for those few weakness with an near overwhelming skill in your blade work and physical abilities, this promotion I am giving you should've came sooner, but it is against traditions and regulations to give them so freely. I had to be sure you were ready for the responsibility, that I wasn't over estimating you, my most loyal of servants" He says as I nod

"I understand, Lord Kuchiki" I say softly as he nods

>>2179013

"And I needed to wait for a seat to open for you" He says bitterly "and....as tragic as it is, the fourth seat has been left vacant"


I stay silent, to be respectful as he claps his hands together with a serious glare on his face

"He had vanished without a trace earlier today" He says, looking to a report on his desk "you can assume what I fear has happened to him, but he is presumed dead and....while I was hoping for a chance to give you a position more fitting for your aptitude, I was not hoping it'd come so soon and grimly"

I don't answer as he nods again

"Well, it will not become official in some days, need to be sure of it you understand and it takes some time to get it down in writing" He says as he stands up "and I know what you're thinking, but even if it is the quincy who has dealt this wound to us, do not seek her, she has already caused enough....."

he pauses as a hell butterfly lands on his nose

"What?" He asks, indignantly, gently picking it up with his finger "the 5th division? what could they possibly....we couldn't stop her? clear off your desk? what does that even mean? is this their idea of a"

"SIS!" I hear yelled from the courtyard, as Tora shouts as her training his no doubt ruined by Aya

"Oh" Ginrei says, rather coldly

"My lord" I say as I stand up, bowing as manners dictate, as he looks up to me, still looking rather..."upset" my sister is about to ruin his model divisions orderly appearance "I humbly thank you for your generocity and will serve in my new station as best I can"

"You better stop her from wrecking the barracks" He says dully "And we'll talk more of your duties when it comes time for you to take the seat"

I nod and push open the door, heading past it as I turn to smoke to try and move a bit quicker to my little sister, who no doubt is near sick or in tears with worry about me and.

Suddenly she rams into me, appearing before I could even seen her or finish turning to smoke, a trail of papers and other such things floating in the air behind her, carried by her speed.

Ow

"Kimi!" She cries, hugging me as the feeling of a small girl slamming into me at high speeds hits me feeling "I was so scarred and worribed about yoooooou, I'm so happy you came back! I was...I was"

Thankfully, I've trained for such an occasion and have just had one hell of an endurance work out today. I stay standing and hug her as I can feel Ginrei's disapointment that a shinigami could act such a way, but I don't mind. Aya is Aya, she's a little girl at heart who's been wanting to be a hero of the people. Its one of the things you have to treasure and cherish even if it is disruptive and unsightly.

"Yes, yes, I came back like I always was. I know it must've been scaring not knowing if I'd come back when the request for back up came in but" I say as she looks up at me with tears filling her eyes "have I ever failed you before. I wouldn't die if I knew I'd leave my dear sister behind in hesterics"

"I know but two menos grande and" She says stopping herself from saying quincy "hordes of normal hollows, I was just....It scared me, and a little part of me wasn't sure you'd come back, but you did and and"

"its alright, its alright" I say, running my hand gently through the hair as she smiles and hugs me tighter "let it all out"

"You did and that makes me happier than anything! you're awesome and strong sis! I'm so glad I met you" She chirps, nearly singing with joy as she buries her face in my chest with a goofy grin I can't help but imitate. Then she gets a serious look on her face and pinches my cheeks "DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT EVER AGAIN!? Alright! always tell them you're going to win, don't leave me worrying like that! Ask for me next time in fact so I don't have to"

"I do not wish to be rude, but please if are going to be so loud may you take your leave of the barracks today, and Kimi your duties today are done, dismissed" Ginrei says looking like an oni as I frown and Aya giggles, looking damn proud of what she's done

"alright, I'll try to keep it in mind but aren't you being a little unreasonable?" I say as she hangs on my shoulders as I begin to walk away from the 6th division barracks

"Not at all, its what sisters do! now You need to tell me about how you did it" she says, her blue eyes sparkling like the night sky or a polished blade "I need to know so I can paint the scene, and give it to you for doing such a good job"


"I will, I will, over some food and some sake" I laugh as she pinches my stomach

"You are such a glutton, kimi" She huffs, not knowing how hard those words hit and why "but alright, I'll treat you to lunch or....some snacks, what do you want anyways"

"What I always want" I say dully as she pulls on my arms

"oh you're so boring sometimes, but so awesome all the other times" she sighs "Also, no work for the next week"

"I can't really" I try to explain

"I know, but no your kind of work where you nearly come back in pieces or torn to ribbons and bloody, I hate it" She huffs "Go easy, and relax a bit, you've been so tense lately"

I sigh, think of what to say

and reply

"I'll try"

And we'll end here

i've archived and will answer questions

Great thread as always HM, thanks for running. Aya is forever a cute, and I'm glad we'll have a sisterly bonding thread soon, the calm after the madness of war (and potential for fun things to happen) is always a welcome respite.

>>2179069
Aren't there already rumors about Aizen and Kimi, considering they must have been spotted meeting up often and going places for tests that Aizen concocted?

>>2179078
Amazement, fear, people saying she'll be captain someday, wondering how she did it. Wondering if she's curse. General drunken declarations of wanting to duel them/ woo her...etc

Oh hell yes, Aya doesn't like them
Yoruichi uses it to tease Kimi does for her

Omake: Part 8
--------------

Walking around the gaint tree that was once the mayor's mansion Hades slipped behind a bush and peered at the gathering human mob.

"So they think to burn down the forest all the way to the caves, this is a bit more chaos than I bargained for, but I know just the trick. If it worked for Brutus and Crombe, it will work on this assemblage of bones-to-be."

Hades cupped a hand over his mouth and used his woman's voice, "Fella's, Fella's, don't leap off a cliff! Blaze the forest all th' way to the caves? Fer a fairy? Leave some o' milk with powered belladona, a sure trap fer a fairy, no need to risk blazing down the darn village, ya i'jits!"

"Aye?!" said a tall man with a black longcoat, holding a torch. A small boy stood beside him carrying a bundle of newspapers.

"But we don't right know what it is, now do we? The boy 'ere said it was a Dryad," a woman with gray stringy hair said.

"Oh, now THAT makes sense! My yes," Hades said. "If it was, then she'd still be in that tree, what used to be the Mayor's house, wouldn't she? It hasn't moved since it grew, I know, I done seen it!"

"You heard that? She seen it!" the boy said.

Hades smiled.

"Where are you, miss?" the tall man said, "I'd sure like to see the face that just saved us so much trouble."

Hades bit his lip. "I'd rather not, if you don't mind, of course. I'm rather ugly, you know, an accident of birth."

"Well, you'll have to move out from where you are anyways, by the sounds of it, as you're too close and we're about to torch this dreadful blight on the town, as you sagely advised us woman. Come, now, we'll promise not to look directly on you, won't we folks?"

There was a general sputtering of agreement.

"Will you promise, that none of you will look at me? My face has been known to make chil'luns scream, now..." Hades backed away from the bush, and the mob. He had no intentions of joining this crowd of eager humans, when the paper boy pointed a finger and shouted, "It's the Mayor!"

"The Mayor?" Hades touched the top of his hat. "Ah yes, the hat." The mayor's tophat must have been visible over the top of the bush.

"Now lad, we promised not to look!"

But it was too late. The boy had rounded the corner of the bush and was staring face to face with the Lord of Death. He opened his mouth wide and...

Hades long fingers wrapped around the boys lips. "Ssssh, shhh, darling boy. I told you my face would make you scream."
He could feel his fingers vibrate as the boy's muffled shriek pierced through the cracks between his knuckles.

"Daniel!?" The woman with stringy gray hair was nearing the bush.

"I'm fine, mum," Hades said in the boy's voice, while Daniel struggled and writched behind a long arm. "She's really as ugly as she said! Took me by surprise, is all."

(Cont.)

>>2179069
I don't even remember making this drawing!
>>
Omake: Part 8 (b)

Hades stared daggers at the boy and whispered low, "You'll do as I say. When I let you go, run back to your gran, and tell her, and the people gathered, that the kind but ugly woman had run off out of embarrassment, far and away from the tree. And you'd best run too, boy, never trust a crowd of humans larger than one ."

The boys eyes were wide with fear, but he nodded. Mortals often had a deep understanding of who Hades was, though rarely could they explain it. It was their soul that recognized him, of course, and not their mind.

"Mum? Ya never called me 'mum' before, Daniel," said the gray haired woman.

"I-i-it was just my m-mistake, she's, th-that ugly," the real Daniel said, walking out from the bush. "Made me want for m-my real mother." Hades heaved a sigh of relief.

"No," the tall man said, torch in one hand and the other pulling the boy toward himself, and into the safety of the crowd. "You saw the Mayor, didn't you?" He nodded at Danny, his eyes asked more than his words.

"Y-yes," Daniel said.

The bush cursed.

"I saw it too, " the man said, dropping all pretense. "In fact, I still do..." His dark eyes followed a black tophat creeping along the top of the bush. "You can stop right there, creature! You've been outted!"

The tophat stopped moving.

"Is a hat such a rare thing?" Hades said, still in the woman's voice.

"Yes, be that it's the Mayor's hat you're wearing! There's not one like it! Your time is up. You're the creature we're looking for, are you not? Ugly, a hag, saw the house transform before your eyes, by your own words, and wearing the mayor's hat! Proof of magic and murder, all rolled into one. No wonder you tried to stop us from burning the woods; no doubt its your home, now. Well, we'll do that and more--grab her!!!"

The man thrust back Daniel, the paper boy, and led a mob of maddened villagers to surround the bush. They circled the hunched figure wearing the mayor's tophat, it was trembling as though shaking with the wind. A balding man leapt first. He enclosed his thick arms around the body. "I got her! She's a pointy one!"

One after another, the villagers leapt on to the hatted figure. "Pointy isn't the word, she's, why--she's right coniferous!"

"She not coniferous, you dolt, she's a SHRUB!" The tall man in the longcoat pried the bald man off of the apparelled bush.

"You mean she transformed?"

"No, no, look! It's a shrub! She got away," the tall man replied.

"Well she couldn't have gotten far, if we start searching right away--"

"It doesn't matter, " the tall man said. "You remember her words, all we have to do is burn down the woods. We'll start with this eyesore."

The man in the longcoat tossed his torch into a crook of the giant tree where it stuck. Flames licked the bark. Other villagers joined in tossing their torches at the foot of the Mayor's former mansion and the fire climbed.

Omake: Part 8, (c)
-------

Hades ran for the woods, taking the long way around. The edge of the forest was already burning. The villagers had wasted no time. They set fire to it as soon as they fled the mansion.

He was now quite delayed by the ridiculous encounter with the humans. He had already been away for too long, there would be a line up of waiting dead. Poor souls, nearly faded, no doubt. He'll have to put them to work right away to put out that conflagration before it reaches the caves. The entrance to the land of the dead will not be discovered by the living.
>>
Omake: Part 9
-----------

As fast as Hades ran, the flames ran faster as though riding on a wind of magic.

So fast were they that the portly Mayor Ryan found himself cornered by a wall of fire fueled by a fallen bough.

"Don't panic! You're already dead, there is no element that can hurt you, stay calm. You there, please come back!" Crombe was calling out to the small goblin-like creature with knobbly knees. "Poor soul, he'll fade if he leaves the cave. You've all been out too long."

"So you've said." Mayor Ryan felt something burn the skin around his neck. "Are you sure we can't be hurt?"

"Quite sure," Brutus said. "Why even now, with the flames nearly touching us I'm sure, if you pay attention, that you feel nothing whatsoever."

"But I do," said the Mayor. "In fact, it's becoming unbearable." He removed his suit jacket, now singed and riddled with small holes of burning embers.

Brutus eyes lit up, "Is that--around your neck?"

"So that's what's burning me!" The mayor immediately removed the red amulet, crudely tied with a broken clasp at the back of his neck.

As soon as he removed it, he remembered who had tied it there. The Dryad. It all came back to him in a flash.

After shouting for the dryad to leave, she sprung forth leaves, branches, vines, and all forms of nature with her outstretched hands. Her eyes reflected his own fright and she appeared to be acting out of instinct. The vines and branches crawled up her body and snagged the amulet, as they spiraled upward the amulet rose with them, then the chain broke, and it was removed from her neck.

Branches retracted. The dryad was back in control. He was as tangled as she was moments before. He was trapped and the beast was free. The fear of death was all consuming. She stepped forward and tied the amulet around his neck.

That's when he realized he was dead. "Thank you for the bath," the dryad had said, the brambles and vines fell away from the Mayor's body. "Go in peace to where you belong. There is no home for you here anymore; I've turned it into a tree, though I didn't intend to, but I will leave it as a sign to your people that their world will yet be returned to the forest."

She opened a way for him and he left his house for the last time.

The flash ended and Brutus was dangling the amulet from its chain.

"What is it?" Mayor Ryan asked, beads of sweat pouring off his face.

"It belongs to the boss! I have no idea how you got this but--hey, it looks as if you're not dead!"

"Well, he won't have far to walk if those flames come any closer," Crombe said.

"I'd better keep this close so that it doesn't get lost again. The boss would be very upset." Brutus tied the amulet around his neck. "Crombe!" He shouted.

Crombe stood at attention.

(Cont.)
>>
Omake: Part 9 (b)
-------

Brutus motioned toward Mayor Ryan. "Escort this living man away from the flames, and do it at once. It is not his time to die."

Crombe's eyebrow rose - the one outside of the bandage, that is. "Think you're in command now, do you? But for once I agree, it is the right thing to do. One of us has to guard the entrance and it might as well be you. I'll get the human out of the forest and send him back to the village."

Crombe picked up the mayor as though he weighed as light as a chicken, instead of as heavy as a cow. Hoisting the portly man overhead, he made a dash through the flames, always steering toward the darkest spots, dodging falling limbs, and avoiding black smoke. The trip so far was quite pleasant, actually.

Mayor Ryan laughed, amazed by his luck. Only a few moments ago he was dead but now he was alive. Of course, he wasn't really dead, he only thought he was. But so convinced was he, that he had managed to find the entrance to the land of the dead! Think of it! And now he was riding on a giant's shoulders to safety through the burning woods. What kind of a day, no, what kind of a world, was this.
