Sirzechs raised an eyebrow as he saw that all his old friend was wearing was a racy black gown of sheer lace and silk. "I really hate taking this form." Her voice no longer girlish and instead husky and throaty. "It's so uncute." Her perfect nose wrinkled in distaste.
Sirzechs emeralds locked with Serafall's shadowed azure. "It was a political shit-storm when your boy went on a rampage in Hell, Sirzechs," She said, getting to the topic at hand. "The elders were all clambering for us to take an overtly aggressive stance."
Sirzechs grimaced. He remembered all too well the calamity from three years ago, considering he was the one who had to clean it all up. "It was only made worse when the Shinto faction claimed that they held no responsibility for the kid's action's as he was, all toohuman. Even worse was Amaterasu claiming that he was under her divine protection and that no action could be taken against him."
"I've already dealt with the elders Sera," Sirzechs dropped his chin onto folded hands. "They haven't any right nor authority to complain. Hell is solely my domain. I've made that abundantly clear."
"I know that Sirzechs," Serafall closed her eyes in a silent sigh. "But you blatantly took a human who had the expressed interest of Takama-ga-hara. Not only that but you've dumped him right into the middle of the elders' playing field."
She gave him a worried look. "Do you honestly think that those stubborn fossils will let things go? They will be after the boy regardless of your protection."
Sirzechs smirked as he leaned back into his chair. "They can try but, they're going to be in for a rude awakening when they do."
Serafall raised a delicate eyebrow.
"All they see is a reincarnated human, Sera. What they deem trash. What they don't see is a devil with a deeper connection to Hell than they can ever dream of."
Serafall let a sad smile grace her lips. "If you say so, old friend. Just be careful okay? We can't afford any distractions."
He returned her smile full on. "So you'll take care of Amaterasu for me?"
"Yes I'll deal with her you lovable oaf," Her smile turning into exasperated fondness. "Just know you owe bigtime."
"I'll have Enku take some photos of Sona when he goes to visit Rias in the human world next time," Sirzechs said as he stood up.
"You do that," Serafall chuckled.
As he prepared a circle to teleport away, Serafall called out to him and something in her voice caused him to falter in his magic. "Sera?" He asked with a frown.
"I've been debating whether to tell you this or not but…" She bit her lower lip and her gaze was centered on the ground. "The Vanishing Dragon has revealed itself and there have been multiple sightings all over the world."
"I see," Sirzechs said hesitantly. Most avoided the Heavenly Two like a plague. Nobody wanted to get caught between the berserker battles between each new incarnations. Admittedly it had been roughly a full century since the last clash between the legendary dragons. "I doubt any of our people will be foolish enough to involve themselves with their rampages."
"Sirzechs…" The anxiety in her eyes was all too clear. "Most of the sightings have been centered in Japan."
His eyes went wide as an icy grip clawed his heart. Where ever one was, the other was sure to follow. If the Welsh Emperor and the Vanishing Emperor took their battle to Japan…
'The girls…!'
"I'm sure they'll be fine," Sirzechs said after a moment and swallowing hard. "For all we know, the Red One hasn't even been born yet."
Serafall sagged. "I oh so hope so."
Black and white eradicated buildings and tore through the sky in a bloodstained hurricane while the rest of the inner world trembled under the duress of the battle. Every clash of steel sent shockwaves through the world and caused entire skyscrapers to splinter. Soul shattering cries echoed throughout the scape.
Ichigo heaved his torn body as his blood throbbed and ached in his temples. They never stopped, constantly moving at supersonic speeds. The Hollow had all of his mask disintegrated and sported a bloody gash across his forehead. Ichigo's, meanwhile, had his arm limply at his side, dripping blood all over the ruined structures.
His foot hit the ground and immediately he whirled away in a burst of speed; a single step carrying farther than humanly possible. The Hollow too dashed forward, meeting him half way.
Ichigo swung down with all the force he could muster while the Hollow cut in a wide arc. The two blades met, unleashing a torrent of demonic and spiritual power. The aftershock of each encounter had laid waste to the scenery that the Old Man was once tired of. All that remained, was the jagged piece of twisted metal that represented the Devil's hold on his soul. The mutation piece…and the macabre moon that looked down at the two combatants.
Back and forth, their weapons met, their souls rang in discorded harmony. A look of grim satisfaction etched into both pair of eyes.
The Hollow stepped forward, bringing Tensa Zangetsu down with both hands. Ichigo immediately sidestepped and lashed out with a kick that connected to the Hollow's side, causing it to stumble slightly. Taking advantage, he pressed on and attempted to run his Hollow through however, the white monster quickly jumped back and smacked Ichigo's blade away with its own.
Again, their blades met and the ground beneath was torn asunder. It was then that Fate struck and the Hollow lost its footing. Ichigo rushed and, with preternatural reflexes ducked beneath the lethal white blade. As Ichigo passed the Hollow, golden irises widened in shock.
