Chapter 83 - Bankai

-Days Later-

"Pass the ball!"

"No!"

"Pass the BALL!"

"No!"

"You're a man!"

"No! ... wait... you bastard!"

"Enough playing around! Focus! The other team is beating you," Sora looked at the team of guys playing a match against another schools team. He couldn't stand to hear the team talk but they were beating the other side easily. All the training he put them through is finally paying off.

Meow!

A black cat jumped onto Sora's shoulders and purred as it rubbed its head on Sora's cheek. Yoruichi began to shower Sora in affection whenever she could now that he knew she was the black cat.

"Yay we won!"

"Sensei! Remember, you're treating the team to a Yakiniku Restaurant!" (A/N: Yakiniku Restaurant- Where the customers cook their own meat to their preference.)

With a smile, Sora chuckled and slapped the back of the one that said to treat them, "Alright then, I have nothing to do today. I can take you guys right now."

"What? Sensei doesn't do anything after school though," joked the player.

"That's not what your mom's bed creaks about," snickered Sora with a smirk.

"Please day that's a joke.."

Sora ignored the students pleading and called over the other players.

Everyone sent pitying looks to the student and even Yoruichi couldn't help but pity the student.

"Cheer up man, he told me the same thing."

"Yeah me too! My mom said he was wonderful!"

One of his friends tried comforting him be telling him that Sora told him the same thing, but another wanted to make a joke by saying his mom enjoyed it.

Hearing one of his teammates saying that they enjoyed it, he dropped to his knees in defeat.

"Tatsuki!" Orihime called out as she walked up to Tatsuki who just got out of practice.

"Ohhh, Orihime," said Tatasuki as she waved her hand at her. Noticing the bag of vegetables and ingredients on Orihime's hand, Tatsuki looked at her with an inquiring gaze.

Noticing her gaze, Orihime lifted up the bag and said, "I'm making food today!"

With a disenchanted facial expression. Tatsuki's mind replayed the times when Orihime would take to school weirdly made food.

"Join me for food Tatsuki!"

With her cheerful attitude, Orihime pulled Tatsuki to join her in preparing food for the day.

...

They made their way through town and walked to Orihime's house.

"Tatsuki, you think Sora-sensei would appreciate my food," asked Orihime with a distant expression.

With a nagging feeling on her heart, Tatsuki looked at Orihime and smiled, "Yeah, but let's practice more first."

Smiling at her friends encouraging words, Orihime said, "Quick let's go make food then!"

Tatsuki had a bitter feeling in her heart as she looked at the happy expression of Orihime. 'Can I also fall in love... with sensei... No! Why am I thinking of that pervert now..'

"Sora-sensei!"

Tatsuki was pulled out of her thoughts and her heart skipped a beat at Sora's mention.

"Don't mention him!" Tatsuki quickly mentioned not noticing that Orihime wasn't next to her anymore.

...

"Hey Orihime, where are you going?" Sora was walking around with his team and settled them down into the restaurant. He came out to take a break from the stuffy atmosphere only to run into Orihime and a spaced out Tatsuki.

"I'm going home to make some food and Tatsuki is helping out," Orihime said as she lifted up the bag of vegetables.

"That's nice," Sora smiled and followed the bag of vegetables down and his gaze landed on her legs. He squinted his eyes at seeing some bruisings on her legs, 'Hollows...'

Looking at the place Sora was resting his back on with a surprised expression, Orihime said, "Were you eating here sensei?"

"I AM eating here. The soccer team won their 10th game in a row. At this rate, they'll make it to the state championships," Sora grinned.

Tatsuki's ears perked up at Sora's words, "Amazing.."

Hearing Tatsuki's remark, Sora smirked, "Right? Now you can let me train you in Karate," Sora said as he walked up to Tatsuki and peered down into her eyes.

Seeing all this playing out right in front of her eyes, Orihime jumped and yelled, "Yeah! Let sensei train you!"

"I-I... I'll think about it... after the soccer team makes it to state championship.." Tatsuki whispered under her breath the latter half. Her expression flustered.

Sora heard her words perfectly and he smiled. He put his hands on the shoulders of Orihime and Tatsuki, "Okay then, come celebrate with me today! To celebrate the tenth win of the team."

Both Tatsuki and Orihime let Sora lead them into the restaurant.

They made their way in and sat in the cubicles where the team was.

"Wow!"

Orihime's mouth watered at the food and turned to look at Sora with stars in her eyes.

"Go ahead and eat. I'm treating tonight," said Sora as he led Tatsuki in first into sitting so that he can sit in between her and Orihime.

...

Everyone had eaten their fill and walked on home. Sora took care of waking both Orihime and Tatsuki to Orihime's house.

Sora knew where her house was located when he first found out that she lived alone. He proclaimed that it was a teachers' worry knowing she had to provide for herself, even with said 'distant-aunt' providing for her.

"Thanks for safely walking us back sensei!" Orihime yelled as she waved goodbye to Sora and walked into her house.

Standing back, Tatsuki looked at Orihime walk into her house. She turned her eyes to Sora's face and her serious expression began to falter. She looked down at the ground with an embarrassed expression, "Thanks a lot for the foo-"

Pat.

Sora placed his hand on Tatsuki's head and said, "Don't worry about it, we had a great time, that's all that matters. Now go in."

With her head still down, Tatsuki blushed and slapped away Sora's hand and ran away yelling, "See you at school! Pervy-sensei!"

Shaking his head at the serious girl turning shy, he turned around and walked away with a serious expression.

*

Walking into the house, Tatsuki's looked at the happy face of Orihime's.

Orihime was putting away the vegetables with Sora on her mind. The events of her spending time with him today kept replaying in her head. She hoped that she gets to have more days like these.

Days where she could completely relax and spend a wonderful time with whom she cares deeply about.

"Orihime," called out Tatsuki. She too, had a wonderful time today. She was able to spend her day with a her best friend, Orihime... and the pervy-sensei.

"Yeah~"

"Do you... like sensei," Tatsuki asked.

CRASH!

The side of Orihime's house was burst away and Tatsuki was in the air gasping for air.

Orihime's eyes widened in fear and looked at her best friends body floating in the air, "TATSUKI!"

"R-run... Orihime..." Even after being held in the air and being choked to death, Tatsuki yelled at Orihime to run away.

"Tatsuki!!" Orihime yelled out again as she looked around her house and looked for something.

"Gah.. Ru-run... ..ime..." Tatsuki's body began to get crushed more. She couldn't speak anymore and before she lost consciousness, she thought of something as she got choked, 'Sensei.... help.... us..'

"Gurrah!"

A weird yell made its way into Orihime's ears as she witnessed her best friends body fall to the ground with a thump. Tears welled up in her eyes as she ran at her friends body, unaware of the dangers.

"TATSUKIIII!!!!" cried out Orihime.

"Gurrraah!"

Once Orihime made it to Tatsuki's body, her leg was pulled and taken away from Tatsuki.

Orihime didn't know what was pulling her, she couldn't see anything at all!

She was pinned down to the floor and she felt a tugging sensating in her chest. With tears rolling down her eyes, Orihime looked at Tatsuki's body and cried out, "Tatsuki!"

*

After almost making it to his house, Sora felt hollow spiritual energy where he left Orihime and Tatsuki. His expression turned serious and he instantly disappeared from where he stood.

...

"Tatsuki!"

Sora looked at Orihime's wrecked house and saw Tatsuki passed out with a couple bones broken. He grit his teeth and turned to a large hollow with his bottom half as a snakes body.

Seeing Orihime in her soul form with her chain out made Sora clench his hand into a fist.

Fwoosh!

He jumped down at a quick speed and kicked the hollow away.

Looking at Orihime with a worried expression, he walked up to her and grabbed her shoulders, "Are you alright Orihime."

With tears welling up at the corner of her eyes, she clutched Sora's chest, "Tatsuki... she... *sniff*"

"She's alright," Sora consoled her as he walked her to her own body and placed her in it.

Her eyes opened and she stood up, "Can I go to her?"

"Yes," Sora said as he walked her over to the unconscious Tatsuki. Green light touched Sora's hands as he placed them over Tatsuki's body and slowly the wounds on her body began to heal.

Looking over the process of Tatsuki being healed, Orihime exclaimed, "W-wow.."

Noticing that Tatsuki had been healed enough, he looked at Orihime's puffy eyes.

"Gurraahhh!!"

Ksshhh!

The hollow crashed in through another wall. It's mask was broken and it was falling apart revealing parts of its actual face. His actual hair was a brown color and he had a youthful look.

"Back for more?" Sora turned to the hollow and glared at it.

Orihime's eyes widened in surprise and began to well up in tears. Her pretty eyes looked at the face of the hollow as she cried out, "Nii...san.."

Before Sora could go even further, he stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Orihime. Puzzlement evident in his eyes as he looked at Orihime, 'Brother? I see..."

Turning to look at the hollow that glared at him and looked at Orihime with caution, Sora saw that it was indeed her brother.

There was a time when Sora taught Orihime's brother in high school.

He had helped him out a lot when he taught him and introduced him to a nice job after he graduated.

Sora looked at the hollow once more before turning to look at Orihime, "Do you want to save him?"

Tears streamed down Orihime's face. She prayed everyday for her brother after his death. She missed him, but she knew he could never come back.

She turned to Sora and saw his serious face as he waited for her answer.

"Guraah!"

The hollow didn't wait for Orihime to answer as it ran to Sora ready to attack him. Orihime began to panic as she saw Sora raise his hand at the hollow.

"Don't hurt him!" she yelled, gripping his legs.

Ching..

Chains made of spiritual energy came out of Sora's hands as it made its way to the hollow. The chains wrapped around his neck and limbs, holding him down in place. Another chain emerged from the ground and wrapped itself around the hollow's waist.

Cling!

The chains tightened and pulled the hollow down to the floor.

"PLEASE! Don't hurt him!" cried once more Orihime as she stood up and ran to the hollow.

Sora smiled at her actions and yelled once more, "Do you want to save him! Yes or no!?"

Her eyes widened. Her brother could be saved?

Turning to look at her brother chained to the ground, Orihime turned back to Sora and yelled, "YES! YES! YES! A thousand times yes!"

"THEN STEP BACK!"

Grinning, Sora opened his arms and looked at the hollow on the ground.

...

"Ughh..." Tatsuki groaned as she opened her eyes slightly. Everything was blurry. She could hardly see.

However, she could make out three shapes, one was her best friends and the other was a weird monster chained to the ground.

She rubbed her eyes with difficulty, and when she could finally see clearly, she gasped.

"Sen..sei?"

...

His Zanpakuto appeared on his right hand and he looked up into the sky with a massive grin. Delight filled his eyes as he clenched the Zanpakuto tightly and yelled, "BANKAI!"
