Facing Demons

Tsukiro lay there in wait--waiting for the right moment when Kita would let her guard down. When that moment came, he would throw her heavy hide off of himself and finish her off.

He got his chance. She started to nod off.

Tsukiro closed his eyes and let his reiatsu surge to its limit. Ice formed in thick sheets over everything within thirty meters of him, including Kita on top of him.

Yoruichi jumped up and back to avoid the ice. "Kita!"

Kita started to wake shaking her head as she started to freeze over. The next thing she knew she was lifted from on top of Tsukiro rolling off to his side. Kita’s form faded as she turned back to herself. She was still on the ground on all fours.

“Damit! I let my guard down.” She whispered under her breath. Her body still half frozen. As she watched Tsukiro dart up from his prison that was under her.

Tsukiro turned to Yoruichi and held up a hand. Instantly he summoned waves of ice around her which slammed into her faster than she could evade them. She was frozen within the confines of the ice, which have him just enough time...

He turned to Kita. "You're mine now," he growled at her. "Now... you will pay for what you did to Toshiro Hitsugaya."

He picked her up by the throat and lifted her up into the air. He squeezed until she started choking and gasping. He summoned up another sword and impaled her through the point just below her rib cage. Ice crawled over her skin and permeated her pores. Her skin skipped frostbite and simply froze over, continuing deeper into her internal organs.

Kita flared her reiatsu warming her body to stop the freezing from taking over. Finally she was able to move her arm as she drew back and punched Tsukiro right in the jaw. Her force was great and he dropped her to the ground. Kita on all fours coughed and hacked trying to catch her breath once more.

Tsukiro stumbled back, grabbing his jaw. He turned to glare at Kita and snarled at her with enough venom to kill, "You bit--"

Before he could get the second word out, his chest pained. He grunted and grabbed his chest. Soon, the pain became unbearable and he cried out in agony. He dropped to his knees. As he did, his clothes and skin iced over. And when the ice cracked and burst away from his body, like a chrysalis, Tsukiro--the real one--was revealed.

He groaned and fell forward into the grass, unconscious.

Thank you to Yoruichi and Kita for putting up with this long ass post. (OOC: And Tsukiro being an ass) lol
