[hider=Yu's Bankai] [b]"Hahahahahahaha! I can believe you bought that shit!, Echo just wanted to talk to you man, and you thought I was serious about that being your test. Hehehe, nah your real test will put you through utter hell. You want Bankai? Then you gotta be willing to sacrifice everything for the pack.[/b] His male zanpakuto spirit said which made Yu glare at him, before getting grabbed by the arm and shunpoed far into the forest of his inner world, until he came to a tree so massive that the other trees looked like twigs to it. [b] "this tree Yu, represents you in a way. Notice that its immense.... That is all of your potential and now...."[/b] He spoke before forming an orb and pushing it into the tree, which made the ground rumble violently. [b]"No second shots on this Yu. You have an hour exactly to get to the top, or else this tree will explode, and as this tree represents your life. That will also come to an end."[/b] Saying nothing else the spirit vanished, which made Yu grit his teeth as he attempted to shunpo up only for a force field to block him. "Shit, how else am i suppose to get....." Yu voice trailed off as he looked to spot what would be a pair of stairs which made him yell. "Fuck you!" Yu shouted only to hear laughter, which made Yu dart up the stairs as quickly as possible, soon reaching a clearing yet something stood in his way, quite a lot actually. They all had different hair colors and skin colors, yet they all wore the same mask, ironically it was a wolf mask. [u] "We will be to the point. To get to the next level, you must get past yourself in a way. We all hold your.... future drive in a way. Yet the drive you have now has become jammed, almost as you are uncertain. If you even want to stand a shot at Bankai, this test will have to be passed."[/u] All twelve of the men said, as Yu stood there then ran right towards, them only for a wind like force field to slam against Yu, bashing him backwards against the wood floor. Wasting no time he took off again slamming against the wind force field only to again be slammed backwards. Yu then punched himself in the face, and rubbed his cheek and slowly grinned. "I won't lie, when I lost to that Arrancar, my drive went down, and then when Ryuu and...... my previous head captain betrayed us.... I nearly gave up on everything. Yet I realize now, that if I don't get stronger, who is going to show those bastards that fucking with me if a horrible mistake!" Yu then pushed off his feet this time slamming his fists first into the barrier, which tried everything to push him back, Only for Yu to rip it open and walk through the barrier, which made the men that spoke to him smile as they vanished. As he made it to the next level he saw this giant of a man, who was twice Yu's height and much wider than him. [b]"You lose hope when things don't go your way. There have been many cases of this, and there will be much more. This will see if you give up when things look rough. Or stand your ground even when it looks like the end."[/b] Just then and ungodly amount of vines wrapped around Yu and held him against a trunk, squeezing the air out of him as he struggled to move. Yet no more as much he tried pushing off the trunk, he wouldn't budge an inch. Air couldn't find a single way into his lungs which made Yu start flailing as he tried to breath. [b]"..... You know I represent your hope, yet..... You have yet to use me once. Did you abandon your hope when you became a shinigami Yu?"[/b] The man spoke again which made Yu's eyes widen as he looked at the man who held a face that looked as though he really wanted to know this question. Yu gasped a bit before tightening his muscles and forcibly started stepping towards the man, his words came out raspy though. "I'm.... sorry. You aren't.... wrong. I gave up.... multiple.... times." Yu then started crouching down before the vines started ripping apart, with air entering his body, then with one push Yu ripped off all the vines and took in a deep breath of air. "I never used you, because I felt that everyone..... just ran through me like I was a insect, so I never bothered with you... As you put it, when I met someone strong, or stronger than me. I gave up hope. I assume that crushing feeling was my hope?" Yu asked which made the man grin. "Indeed it was, and you could only get out of it, by holding onto it again. Go forth Yu, I believe in you.[/b] The giant man said as he let out a hearty laugh before vanishing. Yu ran his way to the next level wondering how much time he had left when he met a woman with fur covering nearly everything, and could easily stand six feet tall. She however remained quiet, which made Yu blink as he continued walking forward, when suddenly a beam hit hit him upside the head causing him to stumble, then be hit by another one from the front causing him to fall backwards. Yu looked a the woman who shrugged, which made Yu get hit in the back and then the leg. He looked at her again which made her chuckle. [i] "I aint saying nothing Yu, this you have to figure out all on your own.[/i] She smirked which made Yu look at her and snap his fingers. "Wisdom, I always use you guys for strategic maneuvers. Hiding you in various places, while I, which I assume represented by you in this case would be distracting, so i take my mind off the other ones." Yu said which made the woman speechless than growl. [i]"Fuuuuuuuck! I tried so hard to. Well you did ace the academy I guess I can't say this would have been hard."[/i] She said as she vanished like the others. On the next floor he saw just a group of males and female all with the wolf getup, yet they lined up in a line, right in front of him which made him stop and tap his foot, when all of a sudden they formed a circle around him. [b] Yu. Us your shikai is destruction at its core, we cause destruction, violence, and even death. To understand this, you will have to realize something, if you get bankai. You will very well hold innocent lives in your hands, so in order for you to realize this We will hit you with the power of a Bankai. All at once. You must know the power of which you will wield."[/b] Yu's eyes widen as all theirs arms began glowing, Yu could even feel the power vibrate off him. So when they all slammed their fist against his body, Yu's body violent jerked around which resulted in him puking out blood as he fell to his knees. he gasped quite a bit before standing back up and smiling. "Thats it? If that's the power of my Bankai, then I'm ashamed. Show me the true power!" Yu shouted in which then all smiled in approval. [b]"The earlier tests raised your courage outstandingly! Very well Yu! We will unleash every ounce of power it has!"[/b] They shouted in unison as the power poured off them, as they again punched Yu at the same time, this time enough to cause cuts to burst with blood and poor out his mouth and nose. He fell to the ground coughing as he struggled to his feet and shook a bit as blood poured down his body. "I have the capabilities to hold that? Such..... destructive power. Makes me wonder if anyone should even wield that." Yu said as he stepped forward anyway with a smile, which made the group vanish. Upon the next level Yu saw echo was was sitting there looking at a butterfly. [b]" YU! ITS OBVIOUS WHAT I AM! YOU MUST PROVE YOUR POWER TO ME! IT MUST BE ENOUGH TO OVERCOME EVEN MY MIGHT! SO PREPARE YOURSELF! WE TRADE BLOWS UNTIL ONE QUITS! THAT FOR YOU MEANS YOU SUBMIT YOUR LIFE!"[/b] Instantly she ran towards Yu and kicked him in the gut which made him cough up blood on her leg, he then raised his hand and was about to swing but slowed down and simply tapped her which made her blink. She then punched him in the chest, which made him stumble back, but he walked back and tapped her again. [b]" Yu. Do you want to die? Sometimes.... things will be rough, and you are going to have to make a choice. If you don't you will not only risk your life, but many others."[/b] Echo said in a much more quiet tone before she held her palm out and slammed it right towards Yu's heart, then made his eyes go blank as he felt his slow down. His eyes almost rolled to the back of his head, luckily for him his heart beat picked up again, which made Yu glare as he revved his arm back and gave her a right hook across the face hard enough to send her light frame flying and into a trunk. She got right back up with a big bruise on her cheek and she ran back at him, jumped up and gave him a headbutt. he clutched his head and fell to his knees. It felt at though his skull cracked from the force, and it looked liked she felt the same effects. He sucked in his courage, grabbing her by the back of the head, as he brought her head forward and his knee forward, smashing it right into her skull. This made her roll around on the ground, where she began tapping out, to show she quit. [b]"OW YOU PRICK! BUT YOU DID GOOD YU! I KNOW YOU CAN MAKE IT TO THE TOP! GIVE THAT MEANIE PANTS A KICK TO THE BUM! And give that Red head arrancar bitch a punch just from me. We will show him who is really the punching bag." She said the last more more deviously as he fell to her face seemingly passed out, vanishing. What shocked him on the next floor wasn't a wolf bout his hollow self. [b]"Heeeeeey bitch, whats good in the Yu hood? Your zanpakuto spirits gave me clear instruction on what to do, so Yu I will ask you this, and respond clearly, I know you probably have brain trauma, but that doesn't matter. Yu the question is simple. Are you afraid? Not of this test, but in general are you afraid? You were so terrified of me, you wouldn't tell anyone about it. Only Hikari knew, and that's cause he had the same quirk. Sure Ayashi knows and Zero, but should they really count? Yet are you afraid, cause frankly I've seen bigger balls on a cat."[/b] The hollow Yu asked, which made Yu speechless before nodding. "I've been afraid for a long time.Always wondering what my actions will lead to. Thats why I've been doing paperwork for a good bit. I didn't wan to risk nothing. Yet that wont get me anywhere. Only my actions will, and if they have repercussions...... I'll have to deal with it then." Yu said walking past his hollow self which made him laugh. [b]"Starting to sound like me bitch! Well we are the same after all..... I ain't doing that vanishing shit. Thats retarded as fuck."[/b] His hollow self said as he instead jumped off the edge laughing. Upon arrival at the next floor he looked out the edge to see he was pretty high up he could even touch the clouds. He then noticed a shadow him next to him, not like his hollow self, this one was utterly black. No facial expression no signs of life, just his outline. [b]"I represent your..... evil side, you might say. The hollow us, isn't evil in its own way, I am that dark side that dwells within you. I wont say what I want.... however if I hear anything wrong. You will instantly fail. and as such die.. No back talk now. I secretly still believe in Shinji, I see no wrong in what he did. He has shown me no reason for me to consider him evil, at traitor if you will. Ryuu as well, if anything I consider Juki to be the real traitor. A man suddenly appears saying we are weak, and takes my precious captains seat? The nerve of that man. he has no right to take that seat, and we are suppose to believe in some washed up captains story on Juki being a legendary shinigami. If he was..... why'd he wait so long? Obviously after the first arrancar attack, it showed we were sitting ducks. The days were much better when the rightful people had their spots. Juki can go to hell forever. He will never truly be my captain."[/b] The shadow version of himself said, which Yu walked by him and pat himself on the shoulder. "Correct. He never will be, until I hear Shinji's reason myself. I just can't buy what transpired so far, it seems like utter bullshit." Yu didn't even wait for a reply he walked on ahead, as the shadow self vanished. On the eighth floor, he saw everyone who gave him a test thus far, this time however, they each held a orb. His hollow self started speaking for everyone. [b]"Yu, we felt it necessary for you to experience this, each of us hold a orb. Well all but one, What these orbs are.... is all the damage you have dealt thus far in your life. As you see mine is the biggest of course. Yet mine plus everyone's orb will be sent into you. And you must be able to bear with the pain. You have to show that the damage you caused, you can receive at any given time, for whatever reason it may be. So brace yourself!!! Hopefully Amaya wont scream when she sees blood flying off your body!"[/b] He shouted as they all threw the orbs at him, all of them entering his body. At first he was okay, then all of a sudden his eyes rolled back as blood poured out of every cut and out from his eyes even his ears.he then fell to the ground seemingly not breathing. Yet he grabbed one of their legs and slowly pulled himself back up He was now gasping as his eyes came back, where he looked at everyone and grinned. "My enemies.... must be some real bitches." His spirits just shook their head but smiled as they all flowed into Yu, healing his body, restoring all damage done to him. Yu then took off towards the next and final floor. Once he arrived he saw the main spirits of his zanpakuto standing there as the world began shaking much more violently. [b]Someone only has five minutes left. So Yu, show me just how great you truly are! I wanna see a war between us, that only we can wage!!"[/b] They both said at the same time, each holding a shikai blade charging at Yu, who drew his zanpakutos and blocked the shot. The Male swept out Yu's feet though, while the female grabbed Yu's head and slammed it on the hard wood surface, before tossing him up into the air, shunpoing behind him, which he predicted and kicked her away. The male however grabbed Yu's head from behind and bulldogged him to the ground, then proceeded to drag his face against the surface as his left arm covered in spiritual energy. He held Yu in the air with his right and rammed his left fist into Yu's face, sending him flying to the female who was covered in the spiritual energy and kicked him in the gut causing blood to spill out of his mouth. They then put a shell around him, and soon after the Shell filled with fifty Wolves which all exploded against Yu, causing the shell to shatter, and show Yu bruised and clutching his hands as he watched his world start falling apart. "No. I can still win. I refuse to lose! This is my life, and I will die when I choose to die!" [i] I can't die here! Remember what your spirits told you! They want you to be yourself again! Not that piss poor excuse of a being, wait a minute..... that brings me back to wen it was just me and him.... Whenever I had trouble he just told me to..... be myself.[/i] Yu Smiled as he held both swords in his hands and looked at his zanpakutos who stopped attacking and stood still smiling. "Thank you guys, all of you. Everyone of you are my..... Bankai!" A swirl or dark purple swarmed around Yu, and as it died down they would see Yu's Bankai look and appearance. "All of us.... We all are Sabējiookami no rūrā. Now can you stop the whole destruction of my inner world?" Yu asked, which they both laughed. [b] "hey you told your daughter if anything red shows up, to wake you up at all cost. She must be shaking your ass pretty hard if she breaking the fucking landscape in your own inner world."[/b] They continued laughing, while Yu's eyes widened as he swore and left the world and looked at Amaya, who was punching his chest rapidly. "I'm fine, I'm fine! I'm better than ever actually. But holy hell am I exhausted." Yu said as he planted face first on the floor.[/hider]
