Lies beneath the truth

Renya cuddled him she had missed this last night



Ukitake got himself to the 13th and collapsed on the sofa in there

Byakuya closed his eyes resting.




HAnae couldnt sleep she really couldnt.

the night passed as did a few more days

Ichigo and his friends had managed to infiltrate soul society with the help of Urahara, Ichigo was now on the bridge with Hanatarou right outside the tower

'HANAE!' he shouted

Hanae looked up she could of sworn she had heard something... she moved to the door.

Byakuya was with Renya in there home.

Hanatarou opened the door for them

Ichigo smirked 'im here to save your ass'



Renya jumped up.. she could feel pressure... close to the white tower

"I... Ichigo" Hanae whispered as she looked at him... Hanae looked sickly pale and rather weak.




Byakuya looked at Renya she shot up quick.

Ichigo smiled 'its alright we'll get you out'


Renya pulled on her Haori 'someone is there'

Hanae sighed and looked down, "You should be here Ichigo... why did you come?"




Byakuya stood up and pulled on his haori he would follow her.

'to save you idiot' Ichigo sighed


Renya flashstepped off

"Ichigo... thank you... but my fate has been decided you should leave before you get hurt" Hanae replied softly.


Byakuya flash stepped after her.

Renya stepped foot on the bridge


Hanatarou froze stiff.. shaking, he didnt even have to look to know who that was... the pressure was thick.. pressing down on him, it was Lady Renya

Hanae could feel the pressure it brought her to her knees as she was weak.


Byakuya also stepped on the bring with Renya adding to the pressure.

Ichigo felt it and turned around 'you'


Renya sighed 'i thought i felt some faint pressure heading towards the shishinrou... i thought it was someone strong holding back their pressire.... it was nothing but bugs.... how dull'

Hanae could feel the pressure bearing down on her... she cursed herself for being so weak that she couldnt even stand.

Byakuya said nothing he just looked at Ichigo.

Hanatarou shook 'L-Lady... R-Renya...'

Ichigo gritted his teeth, this was no time for play he knew this woman was incredibly powerful

'be gone' Renya stated

Hanae closed her eyes as she tried to keep herself up with her arms.

Byakuya knew Renya could deal with this.

'my sword was not made to swat flys' Renya stated

Ichigo ran out 'you couldnt kill me last time!'

Renya narrowed her eyes 'oh .... forgive me... i will make sure to hit you hard enough this time so that you cant walk away' she pulled out her sword holding it before her, she was going to use her Shikai

Hanataro shook noone had even seen Renya using her sword apart from Byakuya and Hanae... he had no idea what was about to happen

"Onee-sama... stop it... please i beg of you stop" Hanae pleaded she was shaking.

Byakuya looked at Renya to Hanae.

'Saibankan, Shikei' Renya whispered letting her sword transform into a large black death scythe, she completely ignored Hanae

Hanatarou fell back the pressure had at least doubled, and her sword.... looked powerful

Hanae couldn't take this much pressure she fell to the floor gasping.

Byakuya just watched.

Renya swung to attack

Ichigo narrowed his eyes, this was no laughing matter at all... he could really die

Hanae was in a bad way the pressure was still to much for her she couldn't move from the floor.

Byakuya was still watching.

'you think too highly of yourself you insignificant scum' Renya stated as she went to attack him


Ichigo readied himself

Yoruichi stopped Renyas attack and smiled "long time no see"

Hanae couldn't move.

Byakuya stood shocked.

Renyas eyes were wide 'traitor!'


Ichigo only just noticed now, how much Renya looked like Yourichi... long time no see... what did that mean?


Hanatarou sighed relief someone strong had helped them
