"How is she doing? Any progress in her memories?" He stepped toward Juushiro resting his hand to his shoulder as he nodded slightly. "A little it seems," Juushiro replied. Kisuke smiled warmly from under his hat. "Dinner will be done soon. You need to rest. I don't need the old man coming down here kicking my ass because you over-exerted yourself while here."Moved

"Last Shot II": (continued) Vale opened the door to see Yumiko standing in front of a window, her hand on Mizue. He walked slowly over to the futon and sat on its edge. With his back to her, he sighed heavily and removed his jacket. He began to clean off the blood the best he could. "Alister." The god leaned into the doorway. "Please, close the gate. But, seal the room. No one, absolutely no one can get in." The god nodded and reached for the door, sliding the door closed. Time resumed, as Vale slid off the futon and laid out on the floor.

A movement out of the corner of her eyes made Yumiko turn around from her worried pose by the window. Seeing Vale in that position, she blushed momentarily, reminded of their night together, but her eyes narrowed a moment later, recalling the horror he’d visited on Kita. She opened her mouth to ask a question when she heard the noise outside. She took a step forward, but Vale stood and grabbed her arm.
She spun around and slapped him, freeing herself, and went to the door. It didn’t budge.
Her shoulders stiffened. “What is going on, Vale?”

Vale smiled weakly. "You're alright." He walked over and gently placed a hand on both sides of her face. "You're alright." Leaning in, Vale dropped his hands and let his forehead rest on her shoulder. A hand fell on the hilt of her blade, the other by his side. "Look," he whispered. "I know you're upset with me. What I did. But, this isn't new for you, Rose. This pain isn't new for you."

Yumiko stayed still, her heart pounding in her chest as he leaned against her and spoke gently to her. Shaking her head slightly, she focused on his last words. “Wha- What do you mean?” she asked. A thought entered her mind, bringing tears to her eyes. “Please - please don’t tell me you’ve taken more from Kita. Vale, she’s hurting enough.”

Vale shook his head. "No. I have done no more to harm her." With his free hand finding her waist, he pulled her away from the door. "Please, don't worry. No harm will come to you. You are safe." He lifted his head and gently placed a kiss on her forehead. "I just want to stay with you...for a little while."

Yumiko softened at his kiss, breathing in, relaxing, before she stepped away and slapped him again. “How can you ask me not to worry?” she hissed. “You took Kita’s parents - humans which were never a part of this battle - away from her. Who knows what you will do next?” she said in broken voice. She heard someone shake her door, but Vale grabbed her around the waist, pulling her away. She set a Kido bolt up his body and twisted out of his hold again. “I repeat, what are you doing while you take the time to hold me? What blood are you spilling? The war’s supposed to be over. Aizen. Is. Gone.” She set a hand on Mizue.

Vale grunted before shunpoing over to her. He palmed her face, slamming her head into the door. "Stop!" He set his hand over the hand that rested on Mizue. "You will not draw your sword on me, Yumiko. I am in no mood to take this shit from you." Vale grunted in pain as he backed away her. He brought his hand to his chest as he fell to one knee.

Yumiko slid down too, hand to her head as it started to throb. For a moment, she felt bad for upsetting his wounds, but her irritation with him replaced her doubt. “And I am not in the mood to take this from you,” she muttered. Standing at the same time as he did, she narrowed her eyes at him, setting a hand on Mizue again.
“You don’t want to draw that, Rose,” Vale stated.
“How do you have this room sealed?” she retorted, hand still on her blade.

Vale narrowed his eyes as he looked to her hand set on her blade. "You don't want to fight me, Rose." He quickly ran his fingers along the folds of his obi. "Look, you want to know what blood has been spilled? I won't lie to you. These wounds came from your Captain Commander. Juushiro is barely conscious in the medical ward thanks to my new Ayakashi. The same Ayakashi that are out there fighting Kurosaki and his sister. There is another returning Rukia to her division." He brought his hand to his chest again. "As far as the sealing of this room, there is a god on the other side of that door. And, it is not Sumi."

Yumiko’s hand clenched on her blade, anger and worry clashing in her eyes. “As if it wasn’t enough that you nearly took Ukitake-san from everyone who needs him, you try to destroy Kyoraku-san and Kurosaki?!” she questioned, pained and enraged. She hesitated and then drew Mizue no Kagami, wrapping her fiery kido shield around herself and drawing strength from the flickering flame. “How many lives are you trying to ruin, Vale? And why? What could you possibly want?!”

"To fucking end this!" shouted Vale, falling to one knee again. "You all think you can end a war and expect nothing to happen as consequence?! Are you fucking stupid?" Vale raised his hand and snapped his finger, pushing Yumiko back with a wordless kido. "If you want something to fall, Rose, you break its legs." He shunpo'd over to her and grabbed her by the throat. "You...You act as if this is something new. As if you didn't go through any of this with Aizen. And, I honestly think you don't give a fuck, love. You're just looking for a reason to be angry with me. To separate us." Vale pulled her close and whispered in her ear. "It won't work."
Vale dropped her to the floor as his vision began to blur and his head began to ache. "It. Won't. Work."

“Yes, it will,” Yumiko whispered in turn. She stood up again. “It will work.” She took a step towards him. “It doesn’t matter if I had gone through this with Aizen or not. I hadn’t witnessed it with, or maybe I didn’t want to see what you had done to others.” Her mind flashed to the still painful words of Inoue’s. “I am not going with you, Vale Tervaden. I left Las Noches once, and if you drag me back there again, I will leave again. I don’t belong there. We don’t belong together. And if you think that I have NEVER cared about the destruction Aizen caused and you continue to cause now,” she hesitated and took another step, blue violet eyes sharp.
“You’re. Wrong. I have always cared.”

Vale narrowed his eyes at Yumiko. He reached out and grabbed her by the throat again. With his free hand, he snatched her zanpakuto and threw it across the room. He then tore her clothing from her, as she struggled in his grasp. "You think being here makes you some bad ass bitch?! You are mine, Yumiko. MINE! I will not lose you!" Vale threw her to the floor. "I won't..."

Yumiko glared and clenched her hands. “Soukatsui.” The blue white flame roped around the sealed room, over and over, and Yumiko shunpo’ed away from Vale. She grabbed her sword. “I am not!” she hissed, releasing a mirror version of Chinmoku on his still crouched form. “I am not a bitch!” I am not yours!” She continued, voice quieter, calmer, “I will not fall for the dream of that illusion, yours, Koga’s or Aizen’s.” She closed her eyes and just as Vale moved, she erected a mirror of Benihime’s shield. In the crimson protection, a giant blue-white bird of flame formed. She sent the phoenix directly at him.
