After Yu left the room Ayashi had taken Amaya to a meadow she found that was peaceful. She spent time here relaxing and let Amaya crawl around, they had been here for a few hours actually. Ayashi turned to look at Amaya and smiled at her, “What do you have there?” she asked as Amaya held up a flower before dropping it and punching it creating a small crater around her fist.
Must have been watching Yu train again, Ayashi thought as she let out a breath and picked up Amaya.
“Hanbun-Tenshi Akuma,” A familiar voice called out to her causing her to turn around to a man who was slowly drawing his sword.
“Katsura,” Ayashi said, “Here to capture me?” She reached back and put her hand on the handle of her Zanpakuto.
“Here to kill you? No, we were ordered to
execute you!” Katsura said before a man appeared in front of Ayashi slicing at her which caused her to jump back barely avoiding the attack.
“Kira too, I see,” Ayashi said before to drew her Zanpakuto.
“Hm?” Kira made a noise, “That your daughter in your arms?”
“…If it is?” Ayashi asked.
“Then we may spare your life, for that of your daughter….Give her to us to raise, to help the clan grow,” Kira spoke.
Ayashi put Amaya on her back in which Amaya gripped onto her shirt, “Fuck off.”
“Have it your way then,” Katsura said as he appeared behind Ayashi as he thrust his sword towards Amaya all while Kira slashed downwards at Ayashi from the front.
Kicking her foot up she got footing off the sword and pushed backwards causing Katsura’s sword to go into her sheath. As she flipped upwards it caused Kira to be sent backwards while she landed behind Katsura cracking his hand backwards as he tried keeping his grip on his sword. He let it go once his hand cracked and held his wrist, “Fucking bi-“ he didn’t get another word in as Ayashi’s blade came towards him causing him to jump back but het a cut on his forearm.
As soon as he jumped back Ayashi sent an Ōkasen at him in which he dodged out of the way just in time. The two then charged Ayashi and sliced down at her, “Darken with Light, Hikari Yami~” she quickly said activating her Shikai in Yang form. She blocked the attack and with one arm overpowered both of the men sending them flying backwards. She then shot off and once close enough activated Yang’s light blinding the two while Amaya closed her eyes right before it was activated, the two were stunned which made it easier for her to go behind the two. She switched to her Yin form and summoned two spikes which she sent into the torso of the two men causing them to drop.
I knew some more would be sent….But I didn’t think like this, Ayashi said. As she was going to sheath her Zanpakuto she stopped as a black circle swirled around the wound of the two men.
They then stood back up facing Ayashi, “Don’t think you’re the only one with new techniques,” Katsura said with a smirk as he held his hand out and called his sword to him which flew to him and he caught. Both then moved at immense speed towards Ayashi striking at her getting a few good cuts in at her hip and a small one on her cheek but she managed to block and parry most of them. Both attacked at the same time like before which pushed Ayashi back. She let out a breath and looked up at the two men who stared down at her, “….You ok honey?” Ayashi asked Amaya who nodded against Ayashi’s neck. “Good.”
Ayashi stood up and was about to charge off before someone put a hand on her shoulder stopping her; she looked up seeing someone she didn’t know.
“Attacking a mother when she’s with her child? How dishonorable,” the purple haired man said as he unsheathed his Zanpakuto.
“Stay out of this, it’s none of your business,” Kira said.
“Hm, no, but no matter the case you attacked someone who’s carrying a baby. That isn’t acceptable, now is it?” The man said, before saying the word, “Petto.”
His sword disappeared causing the two to look confused; nonetheless they tried charging but stopped once the man ended up behind them with his hands out. Katsura tried attacking but the man caught the blade in his mouth and yanked pulling it out of Katsura’s hands. The man threw the sword in the air and kicked it forward sending the blade into the man’s chest. He then looked at Kira and pulled his hands back along with his fingers causing the man to scream….Or atleast try, as it seemed something was stopping him from screaming or even breathing. Blood began spilling from certain parts of the body in which revealed strings on the man’s body. He refrained from laughing at the pain and decided to end it quicker than he wanted, with one quick tug bones were cracked and Kira fell to the ground. The man walked to Katsura who was barely alive and hovered over him, looking into his eyes. Since his back was turned the man gave Katsura a cool look, but it seemed like the man was looking into Katsura’s soul and was torturing him mentally and physically….Katsura let out a gasp, and gave a small jump before his heart stopped, possibly from fright.
“Oh by the way, call me Lelouch,” Lelouch said as he straightened himself and turned towards Ayashi and walked up to her.
“Ayashi…” She slowly said before backing away from the man, “I’m Ayashi.”
“…Is the little one going to be ok? I’m truly sorry she had to see that,” Lelouch said.
Amaya just giggled, she was giggling the whole time actually which made Ayashi look back at her then forward, “I’m not sure what worries me most, that she had to see that or that she’s giggling about it….Or that you seemingly came out of nowhere?”
“Ah, I can see how that’d be troubling,” Lelouch said with a small smile, “I come up here allot, Squad twelve really takes it out of you so it’s a good place to relax….Just so happens today was an off day for me, just so happens you were here today, just so happened I saved you…”
“Saved me? I had it under control…” Ayashi said with a small glare before backing up again, “You didn’t have to jump in…But thanks for the support, Lelouch from Squad twelve, but I’ll be going now.”
Ayashi quickly turned around and began walking away, getting a goodbye call from Lelouch who gave a small chuckle afterwards. He turned around and walked to the dead bodies, “Oh, I love new pets,” he said quietly….Though Ayashi had already made it back.
