Inner Monster

-Raidon-
One thing I have learned in life is that you need to practice in order to be good at something. I've been balancing my zanpakuto on my head for several minutes, taking a stroll. Hisa was gone on a mission, and I haven't seen Toma or Akane in a while. Boredom has been with me for a long time now. However, my train of thought was broken in the next five seconds.
"Trust jump!!!" Hiroshi yelled as he came leaping at me through the air. I was tackled and knocked to the ground. The guy sat on me as he ate some candy.
"Raidon! Good to see ya!" He said. The way he was talking, I could tell he has ingested too much sugar and that he was bored out of his wits.
"Would you mind getting off of me? I have better things to do than this." I said, getting more and more irritated by the second. My patience fails real fast when someone is sitting on me. Instead of getting off, he used my head as a foot rest.
"Naw. I don't wanna." He said bluntly, yawning afterwords. I threw him off of me and stood up. I was ready to snap.
"Listen. I don't wanna deal with this right now, alright? You're really starting to annoy me with your antics." I said sternly. I know he probably missed me while I was gone, but enough was enough. This has been going on for several days now.
"Pay me and I'll leave you alone." Hiro said, a gleem of greed shown in his eye.
"I'll pay you alright... with a beating!" I said, finally losing my temper. I put my zanpakuto in its steath and got me and him a bamboo pole. We both went tp quiet spot where there would be no interference.
"This outta be fun." He said with a smirk. I spun mine around like I saw Ikkaku do when he fight, just to warm up. Hiro merely sighed and started to attack. I blocked most of them, but then he started to get comlex. I spun and swung at a wide angle. He got tripped and started to fall. I went to slam him to the ground when he countered with a strike to the forehead. I stepped back to recover, and then he quickly broke his fall with his hands. I quickly sidestepped to avoided a downward swing, but then he pulled a cheap move and threw some dirt in my eye's. I dropped my bamboo staff and quickly rubbed my eyes. When I opened them, I was greeted with a kick to the face. I landed hard on my back, and then he placed a foot on my chest.
"Cheater. That wasn't fair." I complained from my spot in the dirt. My eyes stung badly from the dirty move Hiro used.
"Quit complaining. If this was a real fight with someone that was life-n-death, it would be a totally different story. Treat every fight like you would die." He answer. He jabbed me in the stomach with the bamboo staff. I looked up and saw things in darker colors. My focus was turned to Hiroshi's joints points as well as his vitals. By instinct, I quickly grabbed his staff, and jerked it out of his hands, causing him to step back. I jumped to my feet and threw the training weapon aside in frustration. It broke in half when it struck a tree.
"Whoa, calm down!" He said in alarm. I wasn't thinking for the moment. The only thought on my mind was get even, and then some. I rushed in for some hand to hand combat. Hiro used some clumsy blocks to try and stop me, but I wasn't holding back. I could tell he was starting to feel some pain. I back-flipped in order to get some distance between us. Then, my eyes narrowed as I homed in on his side. Before I knew it, I Flash Stepped and cut him with my zanpakuto. Blood dripped from his fingers as he held his side. Hiro looked at me and I could actually sense the fear in him. It motivated me for another attack. I struck again, this time cutting his arm. He let out a quick gasp of pain as he fell backwards.
One more... He's wide open and one more strike could finish it... I thought to myself. I readied myself for the finishing strike. I Flashed Stepped once more to finish it, but as I zoomed in for the kill, a kick nailed me in the face, knocking me to the side as well as disarming me. Akane stood between me and Hiroshi. My mind started to function again as I regained my senses.
"What's the matter with you?!" She snapped at me. I cringed in response. "This spar nearly turned into a bloodbath!! Are you out of your mind!?!" She yelled further. I gulped as I finally realized what I've done. I quickly grabbed my zanpakuto and got out of there. I sat at a cliff side no one knew about once I was sure no one was followed me. No one knew about here except myself. I looked at my left hand as silent tears ran down my face. I turned my hand into a Hollows claw and moved the fingers a little before turning it back. I had to remember something: I was a monster. No matter how much I try, I can't go back to the way I was. Not anymore. I began to think what the others would say once they found out about Hiroshi's injuries. Then I thought deeper and wondered what would happen once they found out the whole truth. In my mind I only thought one thing as I curled up into a ball and silently cried:

Now that I've killed the monster, I've become the monster...

Hope this alright. Been awhile, but I hope this'll get things rolling.
