Assassination Classroom Ryu Chapter 12

Dad, Kel, mum and I looked at Jonathan and thanked him as he closed the portal, he was not happy, really he wasn’t, it was like nothing I could describe, it was, strange, normally I could explain and comprehend these sorts of things, but right then, I was stumped, oh, um, hi everyone, Nero here this time, Eliot wasn’t able to make this entry due to the fact that, well, he never did say why, oh well, I guess I’m taking this one, heck, Kel may do the next one, she is bright after all, now, back to the story, dad and mum were in shock as well, Kel was tucked down in the pouch asleep, yeah she fell asleep while we were running, I looked around to see a forest around us, were we back were we started? Man, that’s a drag, I guess we will just have to break in once more, and I don’t care who gets in my way, I looked around once more to see something strange, in a flash we were surrounded by monsters with white faces’ argh, what are these things?!’ dad grabs his blade and hits a few of them in the face, slicing them in half, they screamed out in pain with the most hollow sounding wale ever, it sounded so empty’ these things are called Hollows after all, they are fallen souls that couldn’t take it, and changed into monster, the white face is simply a manifestation of their darkness, underneath is their human face, aim for the face and they die’ he strikes a few more and kills them, I grab my knife and try and focus, I open my eyes to the black area again, man, I hate coming here, but it’s the only way to speak with Nexus privately’ Nexus, lend me your power, become my blade and help me find my brother’ she formed in front of me this time, but not as a beast, but as a woman, she was wearing a traditional kimono with a blood pattern on it rather than flowers or water, she had long black hair with a red streak down the sides, her eyes were red, blazing with anger, as normal’ well, I was surprised to wake up to being in human form, it’s not a body I like to be in but this is your inner realm, so I have no say in whether or not it’s good, as to what you wish’ she grind widely and so do I’ gladly, let’s kill something, shall we?’ I close my eyes and then wake up back in the forest, I hold the knife in my left hand and with my right I bring it up to my face’ Nexus, are you ready?’ she forms an aura version of her face around mine and smiles, I raise my hand up into the air’ Nexus!, Spirit Form!’ she forms a red sphere of fire on my hand with her machine/beast head around it, I bring my arm down and over the knife’ Nexus!, In To The Knife!’ her soul enters the blade and changes it, the knife warped and grew, in a flash of light the blade had grown into a large sword, the blade was the length on my body, it was amazing, incredible even, this blade, I wasn’t even holding the handle and it was moving with me, the guard was connected to a large shield that mounted on my arm, it kind of looked like the GN sword from the Exia unit in gundam 00, what? I watch a bit of anime ok, don’t judge me.
I jump at a Hollow and hit them with such force, it made a trench a few feet deep in the ground that spanned 7 yards, the hollow and a few behind it died in one strike, nice, but one jumped me from the side’ GETSUGA! RYU TENSHOU!’ a flash of black and purple energy just surges past me, if you were looking from a far you would be able to see the energy surge above the treetops, slowly moving from perspective but as I look at it, it moves so fast, I can’t think straight, I turn to my side and see dad, but different, his visor was black and his horns were blue, did he change or something’ kid, you should get out of the way, because sorrow is in control’ I jump back and run to mum and Kel as Jonathan and dad take care of the Hollows.
It was intense, I was actually scared, me, the one who kills for fun was afraid for my life, what have I become? Normally I love the feeling of danger, but now, now I just want to leave here, what is wrong with me? Dad sliced up more and more of the Hollows, each one taking only a second to beat, had he faced these before? Sure knowing about them is different than facing them but still, he was going toe to toe with giant monsters that could kill him, and he’s the one killing them, how is he doing this? One of the Hollows jumped us from behind, it opens its mouth and a glowing ball of energy starts to form, after a few seconds it fires a beam of energy right at Kel, I just jumped, I didn’t think, all I could care about was keeping my little sister right now, I close my eyes in that one moment, I hear a drop of water splash into a pool, then another, and another’ are you going to die here? Grasp your power and fight back, protect what you cherish the most, and break though the walls that contain you, and grasp your future, my child, rise up, and fight!’ I hear this and start to get mad, whoever they were, they were right, I don’t care what happen to me right now, I want to live, I WANT TO LIVE!, I WILL LIVE!, I open my eye and in an instant I stand up in a defensive stance with the shied facing the blast, the force of the impact pushed me into mum but I was able to hold my ground, I shouted in anger and gritted my teeth, I pushed back the blast and took a step forwards and swung my blade, I swung as hard as I could and it was enough to slice the hollow in half down the middle’ I will not die here, I will rise up and beat all those in my way, no matter what, I will face my foe, and win, I will protect my family, I will PROTECT!’ I bring my arms together in the air and then swipe them down and out as I roar in to the air, as I do Nexus forms around me, her body becomes my armour, her claws now my blades, her head now my helmet, the pain caused by this was excruciating, I could only think about everyone else, if I thought about how much it hurt, I would die here and now, her power surging through me, the transformation was complete after the armour surged with the red glow, I open my eyes and see through hers, I could see everything, I saw it all, the power flowing around me, the wind, the stars, I could see it all, I turn around the leap at a group of Hollows, I swipe my claws in an X motion, slicing them to bits, as they break apart into black particles Nexus’s cannons absorb a good amount and fire off a few steady streams of energy at the remaining foes, but it wasn’t enough, I ran out of energy, I fell to the ground, I felt so tired, get up, get up you fool, you’ll die here if you don’t move, they’ll kill you and your sister, why won’t I move? Why? I black out, I couldn’t move, I couldn’t move, no, I wouldn’t move, why didn’t I move? Why?
AAARRRGGHH!!!’ I woke up panting for air, I looked around and saw we were still in the woods, man, we really are going to have a long journey, Eliot, were are you? I hope your safe lil bro, I look at my arms and see they were bandaged up, man, this was a pain, even my chest was covered, I then notice something, fur? What? I look up and see mums big soft eyes looking down at me, her face slightly blocking the sun light from hitting my eyes, I smile at her and lay back against her belly’ rest well? You gave me a little fright when you screamed, I hope the bandages aren’t too tight on you?’ I smile at her and turn around so I facing her, I hug her big round belly, it was so soft, so warm, she was just so huggable, this is why I love giving her hugs, it just feels right to do so, its like I can’t go a single day without hugging her, she was so cute, and I loved having her as my mum’ its ok mum, they’re not too tight at all, how long was I out? Is Kel ok? Where is she and dad? And where did the other guy go?’ mum smiled, she put both her arms around me and squeezed tight, I love hugging her so much’ Kel and your father are out collecting some food around here, they went into the village over there a few hours ago, knowing your father he’s either fighting or haggling, both are pretty much the same with him, and your uncle, well, he popped out just a few minutes ago, that Chronical device on him arm is just a pain, he never gets a break, over all everything is ok’ she then tilts her head to reveal a toothy grin while also half closing her eyes’ that does mean that, your mine for the time being, in other words, you’re staying right where you are until they come back, so in short, I get to baby you a little’ I gave her an awkward smile but then rest my head on her belly, she lay back against a tree and tucked me deeper into her pouch, I get myself comfortable, well, I don’t know how long it will take for dad and Kel to get back, so I may as well enjoy this.
As mum said she was going to baby me, it was rather funny actually, she didn’t do much, she just didn’t let me out of her pouch for the time being, she wouldn’t let me train, walk, run or even simply sit down, I had no choice by to sit there in her pouch, it wasn’t a bad thing, it just wasn’t the best situation, I don’t like being held in one place for too long, I get, well, agitated, and you don’t want to see me like that, it’s not pleasant, it really isn’t, Nexus found it funny, she formed out of wind this time so she was see through and had a few leaves swirling around her body mass, she just snickered, mum decided to do something with her simply inhaled, it was odd, she litterly just sucked Nexus up in one breath, I guess that’s one way to sort out a pest, I looked around and notice something odd, there wasn’t any wind, that was the odd thing, I could hear it, but I couldn’t feel it, we were only yards away from the entrance to the woods, and yet, I couldn’t feel the wind, what was going on here?, my eyes widen as I see something in the distance, it was moving, and fast, coming this way, I point it out to mum and she tucks me down into her pouch, man this was strange, on the outside her pouch just puffed up to hide me, it was strange, she then snapped her fingers and generated a clear box just bigger than her, she could see out of it, but no one could see in, the figure jumped in to the clearing, well, more like figure’s, a small group of teens, one in the black cloak like all the rest, but he had a red sash around him from his right shoulder to his waist that held his huge knife like sword on his back that was covered in a white cloth, he also had orange hair, ok, that is cool, he kind of rocks, just by simply having that hair and sword, another in the group was a young girl just shorter than the boy, she had long red/brown hair with 2 snow flake hair pins in, she wore a flower print shirt and blue jeans, another in the group was a tall guy, he was tall, I think just taller than dad, he had dark hair that covered his face, he wore a sleeveless top and black jeans, he was ripped, big time, I doubt I could fight him, the last one was a boy with long black hair but shorter than the girls, he wore a white robe, shoes and gloves, he also wore glasses, mum smiled at seeing them and gave a sigh of relief, but she didn’t take the box down yet, she waited for the group to leave, they look around and then the orange haired boy spoke’ I thought the captains said they would be here, Chad, didn’t the old man say those guys came to the woods or something?’ the one with glasses gets mad and speaks towards the one with the coloured hair’ Ichigo you are such an idiot, if you can’t even remember a simple bit of information then how can you even call yourself a soul reaper?’ they started to fight, it was rather funny actually, a few times I could have sworn the big guy looked at me, right at me, it was chilling, after a while they left and mum released the box.
Dad came back with Kel asleep on his back, mum let me out of her pouch and placed Kel in there instead, I guess she needs a bed more, I got my shirt back on and grab all my stuff, we headed into the village and made way to the door once again, but this time that group were there along with Jidanbo, he pointed at us and started to panic; IT’S HIM! IT’S HIM! IT’S HIM! THE SECOND MONSTER!’ they turn around to see dad already holding his blade’ Skelege, its show time’ Skelege formed and in her own way smiled’ finally, I get to face Zangetsu once again’ I had my knife in hand and called Nexus forth’ Spirit Form!, In To The Knife!’ Nexus entered the blade and morphed it into a huge sword much like before but this time on my right side, mum on the other hand, she didn’t bother calling a weapon, she just stood there and smiled’ well, Ichigo, long time to no see boy, happy to see us again? Or do you not even remember?’ the whole group except for the big guy, Chad, tilt their heads in a sign of confusion, they said at the same time’ sorry, who are you?’ I don’t get it, should they know who we are? I don’t think they know of me, but mum and dad sure know about these guys, the big one, Chad steps forwards and walks towards mum, he was shorter but still tall, he came up to her chest, his right arm change into a black and deep purple/red armour like skin with a huge shield over the forearm and a strange crest on the shoulder, he reared back for a punch and so did mum, their fists collide, the following shock wave cut through a few of the trees and even damaged the ground’ it’s good to see you Roooosaa, I was wondering when we would face off once more, I wish to continue our battle’ mum smiled and then laughed in her normal demonic way, they released they fists and relaxed’ sorry Chad, but due to a little one, I can’t battle, shes still asleep and if I fight, she could get hurt, I hope you understand’ Chad smiled and nodded, he turned around and walked back to the others, I guess the battle starts now, me and dad get ready to fight, so did the others, the girl simply put her hands up to her head, the orange haired boy named Ichigo grabbed his blade, as he did the cloth unwound and revealed a huge knife like sword, man this guy is awesome, Chads other arm changes into a white bone like skin with a lot of spikes, the guy with the glasses put out his right arm and a huge bow forms, man I would hate to be the wrong end of that thing, in a flash they vanished, even dad was gone, man, I don’t think I could keep up.
I ran forwards and then slash up to the sky, I don’t know why I did that, but I did, the burst of energy surged upwards, as it did it hit something, a ball of orange energy landed on the ground, it was the girl, wait, her pins, their gone, are they able to generate a bubble? It’s strange, big time, the bubble fades away and her pins return, she stands there, their eyes locked on me, she was focused, she wouldn’t be deterred from our battle’ who are you again?’ I get angry over that one, really? You don’t even know, wow, not the brightest bulb in the hallway, I relax my body and fold the blade around to my elbow by pulling the trigger lightly’ my name is Nero, and I’m here to get MY little brother back, and I don’t care who I have to kill, I WILL find him’ I pull the gun up and fire, a steady stream of energy bullets fired at her, she dodged each one by just swaying from side to side, man, this girl is good’ Nero, remember, you need to be calm, don’t let her actions sway your thoughts, she can fight very well, so don’t doubt her actions’ man, Nexus is right, I need to stay calm, I close my eyes and focus, if I focus she won’t be able to distract me, she looks at me confused and asks’ uh, Nero, are you going to fight back or just stand there’ I open my eyes and open fire, but this time I watch her movements and aim for where she will land rather than were she is, I hit her a few times but that’s all, man she really is good, but I must keep calm, if I don’t, she could kill me, she runs at me and says something strange’ Santen Kesshun, I Reject!’ as she said this he pins glow and fire off 6 arrows of lights, I bring up the shield part of the gun blade and block all but 1, it shot right threw me, I couldn’t breathe, was that it? Was that all that was needed to kill me? No, no, NO! I WONT stand for this, I brace myself and flop forwards slightly, as I do my eyes go blank’ Nexus, Incarnate’ as if on cue Nexus took control the same armour as before formed, I straightened up and then rushed her, she couldn’t see me, I hit her with a flurry of strikes, none of which would have killed her, jut knocking her out, after she fell to the ground I jumped with Nexus is control I could see them, dad, Ichigo, chad and, that glasses guy all in a 3 on one battle.
I rush at the one with glasses and knock him out, wow he was weak, dad was facing Ichigo in a sword fight, that left me with chad, man, this wasn’t good, we landed on the ground, Chad asked me to stop for a moment so he could get the girl and the glasses boy to a safe distance, I helped, we took them to mum so she could heal them
We get ready to fight as dad and Ichigo just land in between us locking blades and trading strikes’ Chad, Hurry up and beat him!’ man, this is going to hurt, Chad rushed at me and readied himself to punch’ El Directo!’ he punches me in the chest with a burst of energy’ AAARRRGGGHH!!’ the pain was insane, I didn’t know if I could handle it, I brace myself for a second hit, but nothing, I look at him an he’s just standing there, is he, waiting?’ um, are you waiting for something?’ he looks at and then smiles’ it’s your turn’ my what? Turn? Ok, this is strange’ I jump back a good distance and then jet towards him by using Nexus’s thrusters, I just rush at him, I didn’t move my arms all I did, was head butt him, right in the head, man that HURT!, but at least I knocked him out, oh, well, I think I may have accidently killed him, blood was dripping from his head, he looked up at me and gave me a good fright, I thought he was dead’ you win kid, I can’t do anymore’ after that he fell backwards to the ground, man, his head must be thick.

Dad was still fighting Ichigo, they just kept going and going, it had been 4 hours since we started, the girl now named as Orihime and the guy with glass called Uryu sat with mum Chad and me, Kel even woke up, the other 3 were kind of surprised by seeing her in mums pouch, I found it funny, I decided it was time to test something, I chose to enact a plan, I snuck away into the background and then jumped into the air, by using Nexus’s powers over elements I could land safely, so I chose to use wind and gravity, for one so I can land without hurting myself, and 2 because well, no sound, I land on my target and smile in triumph, now too see how long it takes for someone to notice.
Dad and Ichigo had stopped fighting for a moment, both of them thought with a similar fighting style, neither one weaker than the other, both of them held their blades over their shoulder and on their backs’ not bad Ben, I remember now, you used that exact same sword, how is she by the way? Still as powerful? Well, let’s test that, lets ditch the Shikai and go to Bankai, shall we? BANKAI!’ Ichigo hold his right arm while holding his blade out in front of him, his power surged around him and sky rocketed we could actually see it, his energy switched from blue and white to red and black as it swirled around, it reached a point where it just stopped and dispersed in a huge gust of wind, the wind wiped up the dust and rubble into a tornado, as it faded the rubble dropped to the ground with great force, there he stood, Ichigo, his cloak now a long flowing black coat with red trim and a torn look to it on the ends, his posture was more, dark, he was a lot more scary, even for me, I was afraid, his blade was smaller than before, I didn’t know a sword could do that, it was like a normal Katana blade, but pitch black, the guard was that of a symbol of peace and pow-er’ well, aren’t you going to do the same? I’m waiting’ dad just smiled, he didn’t even move’ you really haven’t changed much Ichigo, I didn’t really want to use Bankai, seeing as Skelege can no longer use it, she lost that power long ago, but, we can still do this’ he raises Skelege to the sky and then slashes down’ soul resonation’ the gem in his chest under the cloak started to glow, it shone with such a light it eclipsed the sun, I would expect everyone would have seen it, even Eliot, as the light faded we all could see Ichigo, but dad was gone, in a flash Ichigo fell to the ground, dad re ap-peared next to him’ I guess the attack is still too weak, you saw it coming’ Ichigo got up and smiled and then laughed’ man, you really have gotten stronger, but you have lost some of it, haven’t you?’ dad looks away in shame, he had lost power? But, I don’t get it, how could he loose power?

We regrouped together and got ready to sleep, man, this is going to be crazy, Eliot, if you could see what was going on here, you would cringe.
