Just a mission: Nothing more

The Hollow crashed down with it's trademark roar. As it lay shrieking on the ground, Matsuro flashstepped to him and raised his sealed Zanpakuto, "Ugh. Shut up already." With that, Matsuro slashed it's head in half, leaving the purified spirit to pass on to the Soul Society. He looked downwards. His fight with this Hollow has caused him to be miles off the ground.

Meanwhile a cloaked figure was walking by wearing his hood over his face and looked at the person who had purified the hollow.

Matsuro took off his custom shades to reveal a horizontal blade scar on his eyes. He rubbed them with his robe but didn't turn, "So... who might you be?"

The strange kept his hood on and looked at the person, "No one really just a person walking by that's all." The stranger said looking at him.

Matsuro put on his shades and adjusted them, "Oh. I see. Then I guess you wouldn't mind-" He flashstepped to the stranger "-if I see what you look like?" He slashed upward pulling his hood off.

The stranger ducked and kicked Matsuro in mid-air which made him slam into the wall as the stranger flashstepped away on to another rock," Didn't you're parents tell you it's rude to attack a person who's walking by." said the stranger as he looked back to reveal his face.

Matsuro coughed up the dust and rubble, "I wasn't attacking... Kaworu Yamamoto..."

Kaworu glared at him and flashstepped grabbed Matsuro and looked him straight in the eyes," How do you know who i am?" Kaworu asked glaring.

Matsuro chuckled, "Heh heh. I study up... especially on a traitor." Matsuro's fallen Zanpakuto suddenly burst in flames and returned to his right hand. He thrusted the sword and Kaworu's back.

Kaworu smiled," Haha you don't much but my name isn't Kaworu anymore, It's Ray Martinez." Ray then appeared right next to Matsuro and kicked him hard into another rock where it broke and shattered.

As the dust cleared, Matsuro was shown standing on the hilt of his Zanpakuto, "I think I would learn from my first kick to the face, Kaworu." He jumped off and pulled his Zanpakuto out of the rock, "So, I guess I'm the one who has to bring you down?"

"Well you can try but like all the others who have tried to do the same you will fail like everyone else." Ray said with a smile as he threw his cloak away and drew out his sword.

Matsuro gripped his Zanpakuto, “We will see then.” He took a long pause then flashstepped and collided his sword with Ray’s sword with extreme force.

Ray pushed back and slashed back and forth with him then flashstepped all over the area as he left behind replicas then pointed them at Matsuro then said "'''Sokudo Danmaku!" '''they all charged forward slashing at Matsuro.

Matsuro blocked all of the incoming attacks with his Zanpakuto and had enough time to thrust his palms forward, "Hadō Number 58! Orchid Sky!" Suddenly, a blast of wind shot from his hands destroying all of the replicas.

Ray felt the strong wind pushing him back then decided to push back as he roared causing a shock wave to blast through the wind and pushing Matsuro back against the wall with such force that the wall began cracking.

Matsuro fell off the wall with the rocks falling after him. He got back up and looked up at Ray Martinez, "Alright you little prick. Just keep going and I might release my Zanpakuto."

Ray smiled and started focusing is energy into his sword as it started glowing black and appearing all over his body then the entire area became heavier and heavier, "Roar and Split, 'Yukkan Raion!" Ray split the power into his sword and made two Black swords appear then he flashstepped and went for the attack.

Matsuro tryed to block as the first blade slammed againist his Zanpakuto with the second blade hitting the blade so hard, Matsuro's feet slid on the gravel. Matsuro returned with quickly clashing his Zanpakuto with the other two. Multiple blades were seen slashing each other at speeds unpredictable.

Ray smiled as he kept on stabbing and stabbing at Matsuro who kept blocking then decided to show him some more power by focusing his energy into his swords which manifiested into a lion then he went for the attack and slashed,"Kuroi Kuchikukan!"

Matsuro gasped and slashed upwards fast. A massive fire erupted and extinguished the attack. Ray saw the winged red tip of Matsuro's sword. Matsuro declared, "Hate, Kaenhōu."

Ray backflipped a few feet from him," So it seems you're finally understanding." Ray said as he gripped his swords and glared at Matsuro who was getting ready to attack.

Matsuro gripped the hilt of his sword and fire ran up the blade, "This attack might not be as flashy as your old man's attacks, but it will do." Matsuro slashed upward, "Kasei Shuubon!!", and slashed down sending a blast of fire down on Ray.

Ray smiled as he charged his Kuroi Kuchikukan into both of his swords and slashed downward making two energy lions dash and collied with the fireball.

The Kasei Shuubon and Kuroi Kuchikukan collided with extreme force then evaporated into nothing. Matsuro glared, "Your Shikai is quite something."

Ray smiled as he started to focus his energy into his body which also went into his blades, "I must admit you're the first person to actually survive my attacks." Ray said smiling.

Matsuro scratched the back of his head, "And you actually got me to release my Zanpakuto. I congralutate you on that. But only to merely release it. You haven't seen half of what Kaenhōu can do."

"Likewise with Yukkan." Ray said smiling as he then one of his swords into the ground then all of a sudden the ground started shaking," '''Supaiku Tategan!" '''Spikes came out of the ground as they headed towards Matsuro.

Matsuro flashstepps out of the spike's attack pattern.

Ray smiled as he then flexted his fingers and gained control of the spikes and moved his hand towards where Matsuro was going towards and was almost getting him in a few spots.

Matsuro flashstepped to the ground and crouched. His Soul Reaper robe was ripped in some parts and blood was on it, "Damn." Matsuro stood up to the coming spikes and sent a fire blast at them, "Kasei Shuubon!"

Ray pushed his hand upward making the spikes act as shields but they were destroyed by the fireball then Ray smiled as he used his other sword and launched another energy lion at it and they collided once more.

Matsuro flashstepped upward and launched a spinning Kasei Shuubon down at Ray.

Ray smiled as the came in contact with him and exploded but as the dust cleared a large black energy lion that sheild him from the attack,"Urei Shishi!"

Matsuro gasped, "Kasei Shuubon!" The fire blast impacted the the lion and exploded, sending Matsuro flying back but not injured. Matsuro thought, ''Damn. I'm totally on the defensive now.''

Ray was laughing as the dust cleared and the black energy lion was still stable as it roared and went into Ray's body causing his spiritual pressure to increase and in one flash he dissaparered and slashed at Matsuro.

Matsuro took the slash and grabbed Ray holding him close. He raised his blade and stabbed it into Ray's backside, "Kasei Shuubon." A massive fire explosion consumed them both.

Suddenly two energy lions pounced up and started spinning in the opposite direction that started absorbing the flames, meanwhile Ray was focusing an orb of black energy into his hand,"Ryuusei Keshigomu! Then slammed it against Matsuro's chest making him let go and sending him flying into the ground.

Matsuro coughed up blood and got back up, ''All of this damage with merely his Shikai? Even my Kasei Shuubon at point blank range couldn't damage him!''

Kaenhōu manifested next to Matsuro, only to be seen by him alone, "Perhaps you could break your own rules and use it for once?"

Matsuro turned, ''I won't use it! I told you that already!''

Kaenhōu closed his eyes and scratched his head, "You said it, not me." With that, another black energy lion blasted at Matsuro. Matsuro flashstepped upwards and slashed down on the black energy lion with Kasei Shuubon.

Ray just looked at him as he blocked the attack with such ease," You know whenever I fight someone I never hold back no matter how big or small but if you keep holding back you will die!"

(will be filled in momentarily)
Matsuro gasped and panted, ''I can't say I'm surprised. This guy is the son of Head-Captain Yamamoto after all. It was said Meiza Kuragari could have been Head-Captain if it wasn't for his untimely death. As a son, my apple falls far from the tree. But if I use it- Matsuro looked at his Zanpakuto- No. I can't. Using it would be insulting to the Captain Itami.''

Matsuro uttered, "We've reached an impass. I block your attacks and your attacks simply overpower my attacks. So how about it? I know you aren't hiding anything. You have the access to use Bankai, huh?"

"....Very well then, you wish to see my Bankai so bad then here it is." Ray said as he started to focus his energy into his swords then uttered the word, "Bankai!!!!" Suddenly out of nowhere a black energy lion came from the swords and combined with Ray as the energy around the Area became heavier and heavier, as the dust cleared Ray was now on all fours covered in body armor all the way to his head and his hands and feet were given claws.

"'''Kuroi Kyuukyoku Yuukan Raion!" '''Then in a flash he disapeared.

Oh damn, I wasn't expecting him to actually do that, Matsuro thought. Matsuro heard Kaenhōu in his head clapping sarcastically, "Great work." Matsuro held up his Zanpakuto and prepared to block.

In one flash Ray slashed with his claws and kept doing the same while he got some deep cuts on him, suddenly Ray stopped and growled then roared to summon five black energy lions to be in front of him then he ran in zig-zag formation blending himself with the other energy lions as they charged towards Matsuro.

Matsuro yelled, "Kasei Shuubon!" He ignited his Zanpakuto in fire dodging the lions and was able to slash one of them with the Zanpakuto's wing. Kaenhōu's whispered in his ear, "So how bout' it, huh? Is it time now?" Matsuro braced himself, "No!" Matsuro got hit by a lion and was sent straight to the ground. Ray looked down at the dust cloud caused by the impact. Someone had to be dead from that attack.

Matsuro's inner world
thumb|300px|right|0:00 (Matsuro's inner world) 0:32 (Kaenhou ends song with smile)

Matsuro sat panting on the throne of the white throne room, his inner world. It represented his position over Kaenhōu. Kaenhōu stood there with his arms crossed, "You know, Matsuro. You would rather die than use it? That's more insulting to the dear Captain than just using it merely."

Matsuro panted, "...you might be right." Matsuro got up slowly, "Sit and take your dominance over me. My Spiritual Energy is now yours."

Kaenhōu smiled, "We're in buisness finally!"

Back
Ray just stared into the dust cloud then sighed and started to walk away but suddenly felt a powerful spirit energy emerge then jumped and dodged another attack from Matsuro.

The image was shocking. Suddenly, Matsuro grabbed his claw, "Sorry to keep you waiting. With your beast self I don't think you would tell anyone else you saw me doing this." Matsuro uttered, "Bankai."

Kaenhōu evaporated to powerful flames and engulfed Matsuro completely, knocking Ray away. Suddenly, the flames become a condensed ball of fire in the middle of Matsuro’s torso. When Matsuro appeared again, he is wearing a headband and cloak similar to the spirit’s form. Matsuro thrusts his hands into the ball and they come out engulfed in fire. As all the fire pulls away, Matsuro’s hands wear two bright-red gloves with the kanji symbols for “Endgame”. Matsuro declared, "Kaenhōu Nibaikiru."

It was shocking, all of the flames that appeared just dissappeared as quickly. The two gloves remained.
