[Reo's House, Elysium]
"Ah… a warm bath after a massacre is the best" Hela released a satisfied groan as she leaned back in the bath. Unohana had noticed that Hela wasn't shy about exposing her body as her chest was exposed above the water.
Unohana didn't mind much as both of them were women and this wasn't the first time they were having a bath together. But unlike Hela, she rested her back normally and she was much shorter than Hela so her impressive bust was submerged under the water.
"I completely agree with you… it was a lot of fun though" Unohana said with a gentle smile on her face.
"Don't worry, this job wasn't anything special. Once I had to kill almost a billion" Hela muttered and Unohana nodded her head in understanding but there was a jealous glint hidden in her eyes.
The two of them had just returned after massacring a whole everything on a continent. The residents of that continent had tried to cast a ritual so that they could gain access to Death's Authority. Obviously, Death didn't appreciate that and that is where these two said women came in.
Both of them were drenched in the blood of their victims and both wanted to take a bath. Unohana hasn't learned how to teleport as of yet so she has to stick with Hela. Hela brought her to Reo's House on Elysium and found that the whole house was empty.
Hela knew everything about the Mars Colonization Project so deduced that her husband was probably on Mars. She still confirmed it with him through her connection. After that, Hela invited Unohana for a bath. At first, Unohana wanted to refuse but Hela was insistent if nothing else and Unohana thought that it would be probably rude to deny the offer.
"So... Unohana, what's your story? You never told me" Hela asked curiously as she poured herself a strong drink. Sometimes the girls liked to laze in the bath while having a nice drink so they had a liquor cabinet beside the bath.
Unohana seemed to be contemplating Hela's question so Hela decided to ask if Unohana wanted something. "Sake, please. If you have some..." Unohana said softly with her usual kind smile on her face.
For a moment Hela had to look around but she quickly recognized the sake bottle. She poured a generous cup for Unohana. She accepted the sake cup and gave Hela a grateful nod. Unohana took a small sip as she leaned back in the bath and released a content sigh.
"There is not much to tell. I was born in the slums of Rukongai, basically the slum of Soul Society. Life was really cruel in those parts. It was a kill or be killed place, obviously, I decided the former option" Unohana said with a longing smile on her face. Hela paid rapt attention to Unohana's story.
"I quickly got used to the killing, I was really good at it too. So that is when I started to enjoy killing. It gave me a feeling of Euphoria, after doing that for a couple of hundred years, I decided that I needed a name. Not having a name was a huge inconvenience"
"So, I named myself Yachiru Unohana, I was known as the most diabolical criminal to ever exist in Soul Society… My stories were quite famous" Unohana said with a soft smile on her face.
"My reputation got the attention of Genryusai Yamamoto, so he sought me out. It was something new and I was bored with the usual stuff so I decided to join him. Together along with several others, we were created the Gotei 13"
"I laid the foundation of the 11th Division and I became the 1st Captain of the 11th Division, earning the title of the first Kenpachi. At some point, I was taught medical techniques by Tenjiro Kirinji. After that, I sought medical knowledge so that I could prolong the fights"
"After some time, I took a mission to eliminate the warriors on the edge of the Rukongai. That is when I got my scar. After getting a new body, it is gone but sometimes I still find myself tracing the place" Unohana said as she traced the place between her collarbones.
"I had already lost interest in fighting as there was no one except Yamamoto who could match my strength and I was also fed up with the others judging me. I was already planning to hide my true nature"
"That is when I met a boy, he was quite strong and loved fighting and killing, just like us. It was obvious that I didn't use my Bankai's true power" Unohana continued.
"Even if I wasn't using the full power of Bankai, he was able to injure me. That is how I had received that scar. Ultimately it was me who came up on top but I decided to spare his life as he was able to injure me… I know that I was holding back massively but it was still a feat for someone so young.
"After a few years, I handed the title of Kenpachi to someone else. By that time I have already hidden away my true nature and I have also given up on fighting. I decided to join the 4th Division, the Medics of Gotei 13, and become a full-time healer"
"After hundreds of years, the boy, whose life I had spared, the boy who had given me my scar joined the Gotei 13 and slowly rose up in ranks. He was finally given the title of Kenpachi when he became the Captain of the 11th Division. He became the 13th Kenpachi"
"By that time I had taken up the name Retsu Unohana, but he was still able to recognize me even though I was a completely different person buy that time. He challenged me and I simply denied"
"He kept trying but I never accepted. That is when the Quincies attacked, I didn't participate in the battle but they destroyed us. There is a rule about Kenpachi, there could be only one Kenpachi at a time. Since I was still alive, the current Kenpachi couldn't reach his full potential"
"So, I was practically ordered to die, and to be honest, I have been suppressing myself for too long and I simply wanted to pass on. So, I kept beating the shit out of him while breaking the mental barriers he had placed on himself. Since I was going to die, why not have some fun before passing on?"
"When I satisfied with his strength, I decided to pass on… and that is my story" Unohana finished with a soft smile on her face and she sipped her sake with a calm look on her face. Hela appreciatively nodded her head after hearing Unohana's story...
"Though you don't need to care about those insects in white robes… I massacred the whole lot of them. They were simply pathetic fools. Their so-called King kept begging like a little bitch. He was a wuss… he simply gave up when he saw he couldn't win" Hela snorted with disdain and Unohana was slightly surprised after Hela's revelation.
"I wish there was a way to watch memories..." Unohana muttered in a saddened tone and Hela started to cackle.
"Husband has something called the Pensieve, I can borrow that from hi. You will be able to watch the memories using that" Hela said and Unohana simply smiled.
"Then I must impose on you" Unohana said with a kind smile on her face. Hela laughed and happily agreed with her.
"So, what's your story?" Unohana asked.
"It is somewhat similar to yours but different at the same time… I was born in Asgard. Consider it a different planet. My father, Odin, wanted to conquer the 9 realms, basically other worlds. So, he molded me into his weapon, his executioner, his enforcer" Hela said with a grin.
"I started to enjoy the wars and slaughter, when I was finally old enough to receive Divinity, I became the Goddess of War and Death, I kept waging wars for my father, anyone who dared to oppose my father or his dream would be cut down by my sword"
"Due to my Divinities, I was nigh-unbeatable in wars, I started to gain more power and I started to reach my father's level. That is until I started to enjoy killing, until that point, I simply killed them because they opposed my father or because my father asked me to"
"That is when I started to genuinely enjoy killing and my kill counts started to rise up. But for whatever reason my father started to change, he became reluctant to continue anymore but at that point, it was impossible for my father to stop me"
"So, I continued waging wars along with my personal army and that is when I was approached by Lady Death, she wanted me to be her Avatar, I was the prime candidate due to my Divinities, after some time I agreed"
"For nearly 5 hundred years, I continued doing what I wanted but my father finally decided to put an end to it. Throughout these 5 hundred years, my father had tried to stop me multiple times, but I was too strong to be stopped by someone like him"
"So, he decided to lock me away, he sent his precious Valkyries after me. I laughed at their futile attempt of trying to stop me as I butchered them, that gave him enough time to activate the seal and I was locked away"
"That was until husband arrived and freed me, even though I was in my weakened state, he defeated me easily and I decided to follow him. There is no shame in following a strong man… and now, here I am" Hela finished her story with a grin.
"You are just like the sister I never had. I would have loved to have an elder sister like you..." Unohana said with a smile and Hela pulled Unohana into her arms for a sisterly hug…
[Reo's House, Mars]
Ororo was lying on the ground while breathing heavily, her whole body was covered in sweat. Reo extended his hand as he helped Ororo to get up from the ground. Reo gave her a bright smile and locked his lips on hers…
The two of them finally separated after a couple of minutes and Ororo kept staring into Reo's eyes. "Sorry for pushing you this hard for the few last years" Reo said in an apologetic tone. Ororo simply smiled and shook her head.
"Don't worry, I don't mind it as it was for my own good" Ororo said with a smile pulled Reo for another kiss.
"Well… you won't need to train anymore. You are finally strong enough though we would need to do something else before you could receive the Lightning Divinity. Don't worry, it won't be training… it would be simply leveling up" Reo said and Ororo nodded her head with a genuine smile on her face.
Her hard work has finally paid off… "We will be leaving tomorrow morning…" Reo said and teleported both of them inside the house...
