Soren's arduous training

After a few hours Bane walked back to the unconscious body. He looked at the young boy and tapped his forehead allowing a knocking sound to be heard as if he was knocking on hollow wood.

"Yo.. you still alive? Wake up! Times up kiddo! Time to get back to training!"

Bane looks to the young kid and sees that he is still breathing. He backs up a little and ignites his hand increasing it's flame, he looks up to the sky and fires up a large flare, the flare goes up and then explodes as if it were a fire work. The sky was now dark as a few hours had past since they began training, the firework was bright and was a signal to call the squad 2 third Seat Jack. Hopefully he could see this and come to the training center.

Soren took a deep breath and his eyes opened he stood up brushing himself off sighing. Seeing the flare go off he remain silent and prepared himself for a fight against the captain now. Getting in stance he would have to learn how to properly use his bankai and when to activate it so his training was far from over. However it was relieved to finally attain his bankai for the first time and he understood what it meant to be bonded with his zanpaktou and understanding it's wishes as well as his own. Perhaps coming to a compromise wouldn't be that hard as he thought. Speaking lightly he asked a question to the Captain of the sixth division.

So it continues now... Doesn't it?

"of course, your training continues and now you shall have to fit and test out your new found ailities, however this time you will not be fighting me. You will be fighting he current Squad 2 third seat, his name is Jack, or as others may call him Jack the Ripper, do not underestimate his rank. He may be a third seat but he can hold his own against a captain very well. Be quick be sharp and try not to die, he is a trained assasin he has been thriugh many wars and faught the strongest of men."

As Bane finishes his sentece the third seat of squad 2 "Jack" arrives at his side as he flash stepped in. He was wearing a full white uniform and as wearaing a white mask which coveres his entire face. No one could see his face but he could see everyone elses.

"They call him the man with no emotions, why? Because due to the mask he wears it is impossible to determine any sort of emotion from him, all we know is when you need something done quick fast and silent this is who you want to call."

Bane smirks as he steps back a few feet, he crosses his arms and watches as Raiden would begin ti get to work on training the young boy.

Raiden stands there firmly without saying a word, he takes out two small knives from his wrists and then throws it at Soren, just after he threw the knives he shunpoes besides Soren and then unsheathes his blade in an attempt to slash Sorens left rib.

Raiden already had a plan on what he had to do to take down Soren, he didn't plan on speaking much, simply do as he was asked, which was get the job done quick and silent.

If Raiden had managed to get him with the two attacks he sent at him Soren would be severely wounded and would be continuously bleeding, this would cause Soren pain and would allow Raiden to find other weak spots as Soren would get slower due to the loss of blood, this would only happen if Raidens attacks succeeded.

Soren held his zanpaktou next to him silently closely watching Raiden after the captain had explained to him exactly what he could do. Soren had no choice but to be silent during this match and only respond only as he saw fit since this man wasn't going to play around and talk Soren couldn't afford to make mistakes here.

Soren noted the knives that were launched towards and seen him disappear after then his eyes cut over to where Raiden was while his blade was heading towards his ribs. Since Raiden didn't bother hiding his spiritual pressure Soren was able enough to react quickly to jump back dodging the knives and holding out his hand saying in a calm voice. Hado number 4. Byakurai. A blue lightning bolt erupted out of his hand and Soren noticing that it was faster and stronger then before which slightly surprised him.

If Raiden didn't dodge the kido would hit him and cause some damage because Soren directed his attack at the center of his chest since Raiden was in the middle of his attack it would be slightly difficult to dodge Soren's attack however if Raiden managed to pull something out of his pocket Soren knew he would have difficulty dodging as well.

Raiden sees as Soren impressivly dodged his attack and then sent out another attack, Raiden span around and did a 180 degrees and threw his zanpaktou, his zanpaktou went flying the opposite end of the island and pierced into a building. Raiden then turned around once again making it a full 360 turn he grabbed one of his knives that came flying towards him which slightly cut his hand. He did another full 360 turn rapidly jumping up as he spins around and then he flings his blade to the kido bolt that charges at him rapidly.

The knife and the bolt clash and create a colision which causes a small amount of smoke to arise. Raiden lowers his spiritual pressure to conceal his pressence in the smoke and then flash steps behind Soren in an attempt to kick the back of his head. He did all this in the space of a few secounds, Raiden lived up to his title he was quick and deadly, he would get the job done quick and silent.

Soren watch the smoke and sighed he had to be prepared for a types of fighting in this training attacks from all angles however he wasn't going to sense this one as the lieutenant kicked the back of his head knocking Soren down.
Soren getting back up a cracking his neck the kick didn't hurt he had to focus though. Taking a deep breathe he sighed holding his zanpaktou in his hand he realized why he was being pitted against the vice captain. Smiling he held out his zanpaktou before him releasing all of his reiatsu making it very dense.

Speaking with a determined tone and a serious one as well he smirked holding out his zanpaktou. We're here to train my bankai correct? Well then why waste time? Shine, Tenryū tōboe. Soren released his zanpaktou reiatsu gathered in front of him it was his reiatsu gathering to form his blade standing here he didn't stop speaking again he glared at Raiden. All has fallen to shadows unleash your divine judgement bankai, Tenryū Kaminoikari.

White reiatsu began to swirl around him forming a cocoon of sorts nothing happening in the outside of the cocoon. On the inside Soren began to change into his bankai form his hair growing a little bit longer then shoulder length also seemed unkempt or wild and the top half and a little bit of the bottom were torn to bit as Soren body began to grow wing and a tail not to mention his feet change to similar form like a dragons. most of his body being covered in white scales besides his face and the front of his body. His hands grew razor sharp claws and his feet were similar to a dragons talons at this point the pupils of his eyes turned into slits and his canine teeth grew longer as well.

The white cocoon made of his reiatsu disappeared revealing his new form. Soren glared at Raiden not going to give him to time to do anything he immediately launched for him using flash step Soren was above him and crashed down delivered a a whip from his tail the sheer force of it with all the kinetic energy and power Soren had was enough to break bones or send him hurling away with a large bruise on him. Soren seemed much more aggressive in this form and beastly he wasn't going to waste time talking nor run and hide he was going to fight with all he had with the pure intent of protecting those he cared about and himself.

Entering the gate of the 6th Division, she found herself dead center of a battle field. She squeeked and froze in place. This was the right place, right? She was told to come here by her captain, and she had no idea what was going on.

Raiden gets knocked down to the ground by Sorens powerful tail. He causes a large crack on the ground and the floor sinks by two feet. Raiden lays there on the ground with his blade in his hand, Raiden feels this spiritual pressure and feels that it is very strong, although he could match it in his sealed form he wouldn't be fast enough to keep up with it.

Raiden remembers back to his training and then gets up from the floor, he dusts himself off and then he stabs his blade into the ground.

"You know... you are very powerful... and you've gotten stronger with training... there is not many people who can knock me down with that amount of force and make me do this... only one other person I know can force me to do this at will... his name shall not be mentioned however you may already know whom he is."

Raiden sends his hands to the back of his mask and then grabs hold of it. He sinks his fingers in and a cracking sound could be heard, Raiden would tense his arms and begin to pull as his mask would begin to crack.

After a few seconds Raiden tensed his muscles and then ripped of his mask which covered his whole head. He tore it off and then dropped his mask to the ground.

Spoiler:

He looks towards Soren with his blue eyes and then the words.

"I am the lightening..." A flash of light is scene from the sky and then a crack of thunder is seen in the sky. "The Rain Transformed!" As he says this Rain begins to pour down to the ground rapidly, the wind would blow and Raidens body would get covered in a large orb of water and thunder would continuously strike the orb.

The orb then disappears and Raiden is standing there in a whole new image, his hair is pure white his right eye is glowing red his whole body looks as if he is a machine a Cyborg however he looks extremely strong. He looks over to Soren with his red eye.

Spoiler:

"The Name Jack... or Jack the Ripper... is a simple cover name... I am really Raiden Shichirou, I am the Squad 2 Vice Captain who destroyed several squads single handedly. I have taken down several captains in one go. I am the Brother of the Mighty Michael Shichirou leader of the Shichirou family clan! I have been trained by the best and have faught the best... now then Soren prepare to battle!"

Raiden crouches down slightly and his spiritual pressure raises up immanency, his spiritual pressure was so powerful that the very ground beneath them would begin to shake and crack, any person below Vice Captain would struggle to stand with this immense spiritual pressure.

Raidens blade began to glow brightly and spark up rapidly as it would be covered in electricity. Within a split second Raiden disappeared from site as he flash stepped and then charged at Soren.

He re-appeared in mid air in front of Soren and he had his blade in a different angle he then flash stepped once again and re-appeared at his side with his blade at another angle, Raiden flash stepped a total of 6 times within the space of 10 seconds.

Raiden then re-appears in front of Soren with his blade covered in blood. Soren was cut in several places however these were not deep wounds only flesh wounds that would sting and bleed. Raiden enjoyed playing with his opponents and enjoyed giving them a slow and painful death.

Raiden slashed his blade in mid air and all the blood that was on it would splash onto the ground, Raiden noticed that another target stepped onto the battle field, if this young girl wasn't careful she would get harmed very badly.

Soren watched as Raiden had released his bankai and launched to attack him he was fast. However Soren could still see his movements though they were significantly harder to predict As the launched the first time Soren was too dumbfounded by the speed and a couple of light slashes was made across his chest in the shape of a 'x' However Soren jumped into the air to try to get away from him so he could clearly see what he was dealing with.

Up in the air he took a breather blood running down his chest a bit. Thinking to himself about a plan to combat his opponents bankai. Dammit this puts much harder then they were before... I need to keep on the offensive.

Soren held out of his hand a reiatsu orb formed in his palm slashes his hand in a diagonal path creating a zanpaktou in hand and got in stance waiting for his opponent.

Raiden looks up to see that his opponent was now in mid air, Raiden raised up his zanpaktou and aimed it to the opponent. The sky cracks with thunder as it launches down rapidly to strike down his opponent, if this attack had hit then the opponent would be burnt and injured severely.

After this move Raiden flash stepped and disappeared from his spot and re-appeared 5 feet away from Soren. Raidens red eye locked onto Soren glowing brightly Raidens blade was sparking up with electricity the wind was blowing and the rain was falling rapidly and heavily soaking up the entire area.

Raidens hair was blowing lightly in the wind and was already planning on his next move, he decided to wait until Soren made a move.

Soren watched as Raiden aimed his zanpaktou at him Soren wasn't going to be having any of that he launched down at his opponent using his flash step disappearing for a moment then reappearing and he looked over at him launch his blade right at Raidens back Tenryūjin no Seinaruken! summoning another in his left had he also threatens to go for Raidens back that's was when he disappeared and Soren following close behind him.

Raiden faced him after his near attacks Soren felt something he hadn't in a while this paralyzing thought was fear although he knew it was training and he wasn't going to back off either because he had things to protect he just felt fear coursing through his veins. Michael Shichirou he had heard about him from somewhere but he didn't know and this man in front of him was his younger brother and wiped out whole rebellious squads by himself? Soren's eyes widened and while thrusting his blade towards Raiden not giving him a inch but secretly nervous but he couldn't back down he had to protect her and himself he made two promises that he had to keep!

His two blades close to entering Raidens body Soren screamed Shatter the blade began to vibrate in his hands and they shone brightly and made a large explosion enveloping both of them in a large area. Smoke clearing away Soren didn't even know if Raiden had dodged it or not Soren's chest was badly burned and he coughed his scales seemed slightly worn out also his reitasu seemed weaker then it was moments ago it also gave off a nervous feeling more like scared somewhat perhaps this was too much for him but he stood there breathing heavily waiting to see the kind of damage Raiden would have the thoughts passing through his head. No.... I can't lose here even if this is just training... I'll fail all will be lost then what have I gained from this power nothing...This just seems so hopeless... That's when Soren heard it in the back of his head a sort of vicious laughter a demonic laughter faint but the fear within him instantly grew then his zanpaktou spoke to him as well. This battles just started Soren I'm not backing down so why are you? Are you going to sit and fear for your life in all situations as a coward? You haven't reached your full strength yet. Soren grimaced knowing his zanpaktou was trying to not let him be fearful but that still didn't work if this Vice captain had this much power how was he supposed to beat him? Was it all for naught?

As Sorens blades began to shatter a bolt of lightning controlled by Raidens blade came crashing down on him. This bolt of lightning struck him and ran throughout his whole body as soon as the blades came a few inches close to him the electricity struck the shattering blades adding to the explosion.

Although Raiden wasn't hit by the blades the explosion effected him, he was sent flying forwards by the large explosion, his top half of his back was now burnt. As he was sent flying Raiden turned his body around and skidded on thin air. He managed to keep his balance as he then stopped he looked towards Soren as he showed no signs of pain.

He grips hold of his blade as his red eye locks onto Soren, his blade begins to spark up rapidly as large amounts of electricity begin to run through it and also his body begins to spark up viciously as Lightning strikes him continuously a total of 5 times.

He raises his blade up in the sky as it is now glowing blue charging up with electricity, he slashes the air viciously as a large 20FT blade of electricity goes charging through the air brightening up the night sky as it charges towards Soren. If this hit Soren it would give him high burns and partially paralyze him due to all the rain fall attracting the electricity.

Soren was sent flying back due to the lightning and the explosion mixing his body was singing and he could still hear the laughing mocking him as he fell to the ground he didn't do a thing to prevent his fall he was slightly at a loss how was he going to approach him without getting knocked away again? He sighed as he slide on the gound coming to a stop his body ached standing up he had to keep his promise. That was when he had a idea would it would be costly and he didn't wasn't exactly sure how it work out near the end he began sighing he raised his hand gathering reiatsu in large amounts however nothing was gathering in his hand.

He began to charge and form his own attack whilst Raiden was preparing his however Raiden's was going to be faster then Sorens. As large blade fell upon Soren he was severely burned and he felt the electricity coursing throughout his body as he fell to his knee's that was all the time he had needed he couldn't exactly move right now but that was fine so long as this worked.

Gasping for air he laughed and coughed up some blood he looked up a large white orb behind Raiden his left eye shut and blood running down his face. He smiled still breathing heavily he spoke calmly. Ra...Rain, Tenryūjin no Ryūsei Botsuraku. The orb shattering into 10 elliptical orb locking in on Raiden's spiritual signature however their homing was terrible so he hoped to catch Raiden by surprise that was his plan if the attack had hit Raiden would be consumed by the large orb and be dealt a decent amount damage and high burns any other side effect were unknown So Soren waited to see what would happen hoping his plan would work however formulating a plan in case it didn't work.

Raiden swings his blade in the air and then large amounts of water gather around creating a large serpent, the large serpent of water charges towards the 10 exploding pieces and then splits last minute into 10 separate snakes. The snake explodes with the bombs but the flames and smoke are kept to a minimum as the explosion was trapped in large amounts of water.

Raiden felt the large powerful spiritual pressure of his older brother, he looked over to where he was and he saw a strange figure someone unfamiliar, he was tempted to rush over and help however knowing his older brother everything was under control.

Raiden looked over at Soren and gripped hold of his blade, he flash stepped rapidly standing in front of him. Raiden withdraws his blade and then rapidly uses hakudo, and begins to continuously and rapidly punch and hit Soren.

Punches would be sent to his face chest arms and legs, then Soren goes quickly and takes out a sharp shiny silver dagger he grabs the dagger with his left hand and then throws it up in the air and then catches it with his right hand.

He then sends his blade rapidly to Sorens neck slicing it making a loud of blood gush out from Sorens neck. Raiden jumps up onto Sorens chest and then grabs hold of Sorens neck with his left hand while with his right continuously stabbing Sorens neck. Raiden was now covered completely in Sorens blood and Soren was only minutes away from death.

"I apologize Soren, and that is something I do not do often, however you will thank me for what I am about to do later! I am helping you! however this may hurt a little!"

Raiden raises his dagger in the air as thunder strikes it, Raiden stabs Sorens neck once again the electricity running through his neck into his body and to his heart making his heart beat faster. Raiden jumps down he withdraws his blade, he lifts up Soren over his shoulder and then quickly flash steps out of the area to a more sealed off area to continue the training.

Soren watched at his attack had faltered failing right in front of him he his mouth was agape and he looked down at his hands pushing himself back onto his feet he was determined to make this work he had just attained his Bankai he wasn't going to fail now not after everything! Standing there he spoke in a determined unrelenting tone. I...I won't give in I'll defeat you Raiden even if this is training. I won't die here I won't fail my friends. Soren began to charge up for another attack when he felt a immense spiritual off into the distance however he was deterred by it he focused solely on his opponent.

That was when Raiden had flashstepped punching Soren in the face and using Hakudo his speed was definitely increased Soren sat there he couldn't read his movements couldn't will his body to move all that was close had seemed lost. Time seemed to slow down at Raiden threw up a silver blade into the air Soren hearing the laughing mocking him and his memories seemed to flood into his body as well. as the memories of all the comrades he gained and lost flooded him a last minute pool of guilt The laughter increasing in volume it was utterly demonic. He could sense the hatred, bloodlust, and everything dark within himself gathering into one pool as if it was manifesting itself.

Sorens eyes widened as the blade slit his throat the pain it was unbearable but there was nothing to do about it now he was forcibly pinned to the ground Raiden going berserk on his body Soren's eyes just hollowed themselves out and with the last bit of his willpower he touched his neck looking at his blood covered hand and letting it drop Raiden spoke to him apologizing and telling him that he would thanks him later. Lightning struck the blade Soren knew what was coming struggling for air to keep his life he muttered through all the blood hacking a coughing. A-am...I really....this weaak...W-wha...what a...fool...I am... I coul..n.. protect..wh......was...impo... Soren eyes became lifeless and the laughing played in his head only getting worse and worse until it stopped the last thing him hearing was a unknown voice inside his head.

You're a disgusting maggot you make me sick you worthless crying worm. Hahahaahaha ugh just this sight of you makes me sick but if you die well that just won't do now. But listen up you fool. You wanna go around protecting people when you are weak? What useless dream you have no wonder you're so pathetic. Ha I bet they don't even need nor want your help now I you worm. I could protect them because I'm the murderer. I'm the type of guy that if they needed saving yeah I'd help killing the other guy and I'd rip their throats out in fact since you are so powerless I'd do it in front of you an watch you squeal like a pig. Hahahaha I love the sound of that worm I think I might try that. The voice disappeared and along with Soren's consciousness as Raiden's final attack ended his life at least to what it seemed like.

Raiden took Soren to a more sealed area, a place where he would be easy to control if he managed to get back up and go berserk once again. Raiden dropped Soren in this closed up area, where the walls were as high as skyscrapers and the ground was dirt that had been mixed with the rain to create mud.

Raiden jumped back a few feet flipping his body as he then landed on the ground feet first skidding through the mud. Raiden withdrew his dagger and looked to Soren as he fell to the floor lifeless, Raiden scanned Sorens body with his eye, he could tell that that wasn't it for him.

Raiden unsheathed his zanpaktou and pointed his blade up in the sky, the thunder would crack and strike his blade charging it up. Raiden then pointed the blade to Soren and unleashed a large beam of electricity to strike Soren's body to see if any life signs were there.

Thunder bolts from the sky would crash down onto Soren's lifeless body, Raiden's blade glowing brightly as thunder would continue firing out of it striking Soren's body sending millions of bolts of electricity to Sorens body to try get his heart beating again.

"Come on you fool... I know this is not the end for you! ... Wake up dammit!!"

Soren laid there his body was lifeless as Raiden attacked his body trying to revive him after he slit his throat saying how it wasn't the end for him and to get up and fight him. Of course Soren couldn't hear him due to him being dead the he awoke inside his zanpaktou's innerworld everyone he'd promised to protect standing right there looking at him mockingly there was some of the fullbringers, a quincy girl, a few humans and a few shinigami and one thing he noted is that he knew all of them standing up he looked towards him their eyes seeming cold and distant as they all sneered and started laughing they spoke at the same time having that same mocking tone.

Soren why did you have to die? I thought you was going to protect us how can you do when you die? We thought we could depend on you yet you're going to fail us while your training? You have really strong convictions are also we must really mean a lot for you to sacrifice yourself. They sneered this at Soren his heart fell realizing what he had done and there wasn't any denying what he had done. They continued to taunt Soren with their truths however this time it was nothing more then a likely that only angered Soren. Or was you just running away from your responsibilites like usual because you're nothing but a weak coward isn't that right Soren?

Soren's eyes widen hearing it from a enemy would be different no hearing it from anyone but these people standing in front of him would be better but seeing their faces and connecting the dots he knew that was exactly what happened in that area of the training grounds against Raiden. He knew it was true but nevertheless he looked up at the figures in front of him watching him with their faces sneering. Soren speaking up unsure about any of his ideals anymore his voice only confirming his doubt, sadness, anger, and utter confusion. I...No...I wasn't running away! I was... I was...caught by surprise I wouldn't ever run away even if it did mean my death! To protect you all is my priority and if I can't do that then what is there to live for? I can't give up...I can't give...

The people smiled and looked at Soren laughing at him. You can't give up? Look at yourself you worm. You already have. With that Soren's eyes widened and he fell to his knee's giving in to their words no not their words but their truths. Suddenly he looked up and they were gone a hollowfied man stood there in his place a mask with four horns creating a curved v shape and a crest in the porptional to the mask his mask being rather demonic having large teeth and his canine's being a inch of two longer his form seemed to represent his bankai form but as a himself hollowfied. His scales had turned from white to black his skin being pure white with taboo markings going down his chest his tattered shinigami was still on his body his hair seemed to be longer also his eyes didn't appear to be visible any longer around his collar bones spikes formed and his wings span and tail had increased in size and at the end of his tail there was a notch on the end like a arrowhead a hollow hole appearing in the middle of his chest and it glared at Soren him being frozen in fear what exactly that was standing before him.

Back on the outside after Raiden's attack hit Soren he was covered in a large orb of black reiatsu with a white outline and it covered him like a shield until his evolution process was completed. Washing away from him he stood there and turned around glaring at Raiden as a bolt of lightning crashed down near him the creature paying no mind as he held out his hand pointing it toward Raiden a small black or with a tiny white outline forming at the tip of his finger as he released a large cero at him tearing up some of the ground in it's path the hollow not wasting time some of the large rocks in the air he sonidoed to and flung them at Raiden disappearing once again standing behind behind the captain forming a black zanpaktou out of his reiatsu thrusting it at Raiden his tail coming from the back as well. All of this being in a fluid motion But for now it was up to Soren to face his sins.

Back inside his innerworld Soren looked at the hollow figure of himself before him. He was confused he had a hollow inside him what was the meaning of this? The hollow looked at Soren making a hissing type sound and began to walk towards Soren stopping only to see how Soren was cowering in fear and utter confusion. It began to let out a demonic laugh and tilting his head back and launching for Soren grabbing him by the throat and slamming him on a nearby rock cracking it. Looking at Soren he opened his maw a snake like tongue came out and licked Soren's cheek the tongue retreating back into his mouth. It spoke but it's mouth didn't move and Soren heard it inside his head. You are so pathetic you smell like fear, taste like fear, and look like fear just how pathetic are you worm? Taking over your body shouldn't be a problem what so ever if you are like this! What are you afraid because you've had this primal instinct inside you or is because of you didn't want to protect your friends and just wanted to win because of me no matter the cost? It sucks to know how royally pathetic you are! Now in that case let me just end you and make this quick.

Soren's eyes widened and he glared at the hollow he wasn't sure if it was with hatred or just anger but there was no way that was him. His slowly began falling his face and he lied there and he gaze never left the hollow and he formed his zanpaktou in his hand and thrusted past the hollows shoulder cutting him open his blood splattering onto the rock beside him. You're wrong. I wouldn't do that even if my purpose wasn't to protect I would never become a murderer for no reason. I'll die before I'll let myself become that. The Hollow laughed to himself and looked over to his cut regenerating his eyes to Soren picking him up again it seems like he finally found a will to fight The Holow threw Soren across the field and Soren landed on his feet standing there. The Hollow simply stating to Soren Is that so?

Raiden saw the large cero, powerful - as expected. Soren's power was progressing. The Cero charged rapidly at him, Raiden slashed his blade to the side cancelling his attack. He would stand there as the Cero would tear up the ground and charge towards him, he waited until the last minute as he sensed Soren's movements.

The Cero came charging at him and Raiden last minute shunpoes up to the sky, he manages to dodge Sorens first attack and sends his blade to Sorens back in an attempt to slash him. His blade was sparking up viciously and had a water formed snake orbiting the blade combining both thunder and water together.

If this hit Soren the water would spread out and surround his entire body and the electricity would continuously electrocute him burning him viciously leaving deep black burns and burning through flesh and muscle.

Raiden had an emotionless look on his face, he was serious his red eye glowing brightly while his left eye was covered up for a reason. He had the determination to kill and his blade wasn't lacking it either, he would keep going until Soren was either dead or tamed.

Soren's body watched as Raiden moved away dodging it there was a lack of caring in this demonic form as he turned around sensing Raiden grabbing his his wrist Soren's body not moving a inch the ground being crushed beneath him Raiden was indeed not holding back but neither was Soren's hollow form as it began to squeeze around Raiden's wrist a black light with a white outlining began to form as he releases a cero at full power and at close range right at Raiden. However that wasn't all that would be done forming a black blade with a white outlining in his hand he thrusted in the location of where raiden was and he overloaded the condense form releasing a tower like explosion in between the both of them.

Soren's body despite being caught in his own attack released nothing but a hysterical laughter that creature seemed to be the exact opposite of Soren's personality. This thing seemed to be enjoying the fight and loved all of it's destruction whether it hurt Raiden or not. It reveled in the absolute chaos that it and his opponent was bringing nothing mattered anymore. Nothing. Pain, suffering, hatred, murder, and disorder the absolute chaos that was all this being was.

--

Meanwhile in Soren's innerworld Soren was flung back into a large boulder it cracking behind him the white blade in his hand having blood running down the blade. Soren himself having his outfit ripped opened his chest having a deep wound carved into him and him wiping sweat and blood off his brow breathing heavily. He stood up gripping his blade once more looking at the hollow version of himself as it flapped it's wings and landed on the grounds lightly and tilted it's head looking at the damaged Soren him holding the blade blade in his hand. Soren launching towards the hollow releasing a cry of anger the hollow closing it's fist as Soren came near him and released it's fist right into Soren's gut making him stumble back a bit. The hollow launched it's tail towards Soren's right shoulder blade and pinned him against the rock Soren grabbing at the tail to pull it out but the hollow pulled it out on it's own and sliced Soren's cheek open.

Without care or really any emotion he hollow soren to a heavily breathing and tired out Soren. What's wrong maggot those words you said to me not important anymore? Are you abandoning them like you always have before? Running away still like the coward you are. Hmph how pathetic. Soren looked up at the hollow and glared at him and screamed out in anger at the hollow I'M NOT RUNNING AWAY! I'M NOT A COWARD! I'll- The hollow used Sonido and punched Soren in the gut again and dropped it's zanpaktou clutching Soren's throat speaking a malicious tone right towards Soren's face. You'll do what? Die to defeat me? Listen to me maggot you'll won't even have the chance to breathe if I don't let you. Now listen to what someone you know has to say since you won't listen to your own self.

With that Soren cut his eyes over to a young little girl and a much older lady Soren froze knowing exactly who they were. The older lady wearing a kinimo and little girl wearing a yukata they were both very special to Soren and he raised his hand as the hollow seemed to vanish leaving them both there with him but Soren couldn't bring himself to move them both loking up at Soren with disappointment and looking away. Soren noticed this and his heart sank speakign softly he said what he knew them by ...Mother... Ame...? They both looked at him and shook their heads in disappointment his mother spoke in a disappointed tone with her fragile voice. Soren my son why can't you see you are running away all those vows and promises you have made to everyone including and and this girl. You've been using running away from them while being true to your words but none of that matters being you are only seeking death as a excuse. Hiding behind "I'll protect you with my very life." The Ame girl popping in as well.

Renny don't you see that excuse is stupid because we're in your heart and we live in you giving you a reason to want to live not to sacrifice yourself for god knows what reason. Do you understand you're just doing you stupid jerk. Soren looked at them rather speechless and remained silent thinking about their words was he really that foolish? It was true that he didn't consider them like that but he really didn't know what to say or do at that moment.

Raidens eye widened as the large powerful Cero actually hit him and he was stabbed in the gut at the same time, the black pierces out of his back as he is then thrown back a few feet. Soren crashes down onto the ground and then rolls down on the ground, Raiden lies there on the floor for a short moment as he takes in what just happened.

He gets up of the floor and looks at his body, Raiden was badly burnt his armor as sizzling from the attack. Raiden looked down and saw the blade that pierced him, he gripped hold of it and ripped it out of him, his white artificial blood was spewing out. He gripped hold of the handle and then he picked up his own zanpaktou off of the ground, he spun them both around and then Raiden sent a large surge of electricity through the black blade, purifying it and converting it into one of his own blades.

His body sparks up with electricity as he swings both blades about, he looks over to Soren with his eye glowing brightly red. He spins his blades about rapidly as large amounts of water begins to gather up and surrounds his entire body, Raiden rises up from the floor as he was now in a giant 10ft Sea Serpent, the water was constantly spinning around on the outside however Raiden was completely still on the inside.

The large Water serpent charges up into the sky, gathering more water as it is in mid-air creating a Giant long Water Snake, the water serpent slithers through the air as various bolts of lightening strike it.

Raiden aims the water serpent's head to Soren and then he shifts his blades up and then goes down in a nose dive position towards Soren, the outside of the snake begins to spark up with electricity as the entire serpent gets absorbed by electricity creating one giant bolt of lightening that was traveling at 100MPH diving down from 50FT in the sky charging directly at Soren.

If this attack hit Soren he would be wounded badly, cut burnt and would have broken bones, the floor would be destroyed as the attack would create a large crater and Soren would be weaker and more injured, the downside of this attack is that Raiden also sacrifices his own body in this attack, so both opponents will be highly injured afterwards if the attack hits.

The hollow watched as the snake shot into the air the hollow stopped it's laughter and formed another black zanpaktou with a white outlining in it's hand gripping his blade he screamed his reiatsu forming a large black demonic dragon enveloping him as the snake came down towards the hollow the hollow using Soren's zanpaktou technique Ten no ryū no shinseina saigo no sutoraiku. The hollow launching itself at the attack releasing his own attack in a attempt to relieve some of the damage as they collided the hollow was hit by the water snake and managed to relieve some of the damage using his final attack causing a large explosion but was caught in his own as as well as Raidens but the damage was less severe the hollow falling on the ground the ground collapsing underneath him a bit. Two of his ribs were broken, his right leg, his left arm, finally his mask was cracking.

His mask broke and his hollow body began to disappear forming a white light and covering his body healing his broken ribs and some of his deep cuts only the life threatening stuff including his hollow hole was healed and his zanpaktou sealed itself. Soren was awake and he began to move despite the pain bouncing on one leg snatching at his zanpaktou standing there his wounds being too severe to actually move but him being ignorant anyways he pointed his zanpaktou at Raiden.

...I won't go down again I have to protect everyone including myself for those inside of me... Who I hold dear they live on inside of me I was too belligerent to see that... I must live on for them as well. Come Raiden let's finish this.

Raiden was struck by his own attack, he jumped back a few feet with electricity sparking all over him. He was badly injured by his own attack, he squinted his eye as he gritted his teeth in pain. He looked to Soren and saw how he foolishly raised his blade up, he asked him to finish him and so his wish was his command.

Raiden shunpoes rapidly to Soren, he appears at his right hand side and then with his blade slices his wrist once allowing Soren's blade to drop, Raiden crushes the black blade that he had in his hand before with his bare hand and then picks up Sorens zanpaktou.

He shunpoes once again rapidly to various places all around Soren slicing him up continuously from head to toe. In the end he Shunpoes in front of him and then stabs his chest with Sorens own Zanpaktou, the blade arriving only a few inches away from the heart, then Raiden shunpoes above and falls down as he pierces the right side of his neck in a diagonal angle, the blade pierces through the flesh, tears out the muscle rips out all the glands and then the tip rips out of the rib cage area.

Raiden then shunpoes in front once again, not panting one bit as he then uses hakudo to continuously punch and kick Soren's head and chest. In the end he raised his hands up to the sky as lightening struck down on them, he charged up a large ball of light in his hands, his eye glew brightly red as it suddenly turned a thunderous blue. He looked to Soren as he said.

"Sonic... Boom!"

He then fired out a large beam made out of pure electricity this beam was the size of a large boulder, this would tear up the floor the walls and would bright up the whole night sky as the powerful beam would charge to Soren like a large train about to crash into someone.

Raiden was only a few feet away and the beam was charging fast, if Soren was hit then it was game over, he would be thrown back a few feet and would be extremely injured and at the brink of death. However this attack would not kill it as the plus side of this attack is it sends bolts of electricity to the heart to keep it pumping while the rest is being destroyed.

Downside to this ability is that this wares out Raiden a lot, as he uses a lot of concentrated power after this attack Raiden can only fight for so long until he must rest.

Soren gets hit with the attack being unable to move and is knocked out laying on the ground after being blown back into the wall almost lifeless but still breathing.

Raiden goes back into his sealed form and is now in his normal white shinigami suit. The rain slowly begins to stop as Raiden walks over to the now unconscious Soren he pulls his blade out his body and then slashes it in the air to clean the blood of it and then follows up by sheathing it, he then rips out Sorens blade and sheaths it for him.

He places his middle and index finger of his right hand on the side of Sorens neck as he checks for a pulse, he feels his pulse beating and shows signs of life. Raiden grabs hold of Sorens arm and places it over his shoulder as he then continues to lift him up and place him over his shoulder, where he then begins to walk off with the unconscious blood covered Soren over his shoulder and then he goes into shunpo as he travels to the Shichirou Clan island for medical treatment.
