[Hakora vi Britannia]

Hakora walked the streets of his home district and now that his blade had made itself unsealed due to his rage and growing power it was now on his back. He walked to some double doors where inside the sound of people dieing and swords clashing could be heard. Hakora entered and approached the guard.

"Name?"
"Hakora Fury."
"A Fury? Didn't think I would see one of you nobles here, thought you were to good for us."
"I'm here to claim my rightful title."
"Well then, welcome to the Kenpachi tournament, Fury!"
The man gave Hakora a number written on his face and Hakora went to sit and wait his turn to join the fight. His mind went to a memory of his childhood....

"Hakora! NO NO NO! If I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times, never, and I mean NEVER take your eyes off your opponent!"

"Yes Older brother."

The young Hakora, who looked about 8 held his sword firmly keeping his eye on his brother. Once his brother attacked, Hakora defended and kept on doing this. His brother then left a purposeful opening testing Hakora if he would see it. Hakora took it a cut his brother's shirt.

"Good Hakora, your learning fast. Soon you'll be ready to join the soul society like me and soon your brother Lloyd."

"Really?"

"Yes, I wouldn't be surprised if your skill with the blade surpasses mine and Lloyd's one day. You may even reach a time when your ready to get the title of Kenpachi of 79th district."

"When will that day come?"

"When it comes, you will know. Now again!....."

________________

Hakora knew today was that day his brother spoke of long ago and waited with his rage only building.  

[Hakora vi Britannia]

Hakora takes the report and looks at it for a bit and then at the new captain. "It doesn't have the one I need on it, I care not about the others only the leader. I do not hate you, only that hollow. Heres the letter back, but while your at it take this letter to Nami, my Lt." Hakora gives him back the report and the letter and then bids the captain a fairwell.

Letter:[/b

Dear Nami,
I may not come out of this fight alive, but if I don't theres something I need you to know. I didn't just pick you because of your resume and power, but there was another reason. I saw you one day in your squad and could not take my eyes off you for hours. I fell for you that day and know I will never see anyone as beautiful as you and even if you don't feel the same I had to tell you. I hope to see you soon.

Hakora Fury  

[Hakora vi Britannia]

"HAKORA FURY!!!!"


Hakora got up and headed for the arena doors. They made aloud shrieking sound as the massive doors opened and Hakora entered. He saw no one and just made his way to the middle. Then everything began to shake and Hakora almost lost his balance. The doors on the other side opened and the biggest man he'd ever seen. Hakora took his blade off his back as the guy took out two handheld axes. The man charged Hakora and it was a struggle to stay on his foot and then he brought his blade down at Hakora with more speed then someone of that size could beable to move. Hakora flashstepped out, but was only slightly too slow which sent him flying from the massive chunks of earth being sent and Hakora was flying at such a speed that it took everything he had to spin his body and come to the ground skidding and tearing his legs up. The man was already at Hakora with another attack and Hakora raised his blade to keep it at bay. The sheer power of it sent Hakora down and formed a crater around him. Hakora began using reitsu for power, but could not get the ax off of him. His brother dying came to mind and he became enraged and pushed up with so much power that he sliced the ax in half and cut the man's hand. The other ax came at him and Hakora did a back flip to dodge it and jumped on its back. The gaint didn't realize what he had done at first and began raising his ax and Hakora used that to send himself flying high and up to the gaints head and grabbing on to the collar. Before the gaint could get Hakora off he took his blade and slit the gaint's neck causing it to fall with and massive crash and lay cold dead. Hakora just looked at the gaint as they began working on getting him out of the arena and waited for his next guy.  

[Hakora vi Britannia]

The doors opened again a man in a Japanese uniform came out with what looked to be a small army. Hakora just stood there. "Thought this was a one on one fight." "I am a commander of the imperial forces, I am not here to become Kenpachi only to win this and become the King's successor." "Then prepare to die." Hakora counted the army and without even moving, or even show movement, they all fell dead. The commander held up two fingers and bent them and hundreds of arrows fired at Hakora. He drew his blade and moved it with such blinding speed that he sliced them, but one got through and hit him in the shoulder. He broke the arrow and lunched at the commander for a stab to the stomach, but he was just as fast and countered with his blade. Hakora broke the blade lock and spun around and clashed once again to the skilled man's sword. Hakora began unleashing attack after attack and the man just kept up. Hakora could not believe this normal person could keep up with him with the blade and then Hakora noticed something. His sword arm wasn't real but machine. Hakora parried and pushed on his blade and then once he had the guy back he brought up his leg and kicked him and sent him off balance for a second. Within that second Hakora sliced his fake arm and sliced off his head. Hakora put his blade away and began to leave since this was the end of day one of the tournament and he had a wound to heal.  

[Hakora vi Britannia]

The next day Hakora returned and fought many enemies defeating them all with easy and then leaving the second day. He was indeed mastering Shakai now that his blade decided to remain in it. Hakora came back the last day for his last fight to find the Kenpachi already waiting for him.

"You fight well kid, but I'm afraid this is where your luck will run out."

Hakora drew his blade and slammed it to the ground. "You talk to much." The man drew his blades and they both lunged at one another. They both began a flurry of attacks and this man was fast but also had the strength and skill to use this and prove why he was Kenpachi. Hakora had to stay alert and in defense with this guys two blades vs. his one. Hakora could not get out of defensive and was having a hard time with this man's power. The man made such a fast slash at Hakora's midsection that he could not counter and felt it touch his clothing and quickly moved back to only receive a minor slash. Hakora's rage even went higher and he shunpo'd back and through the Kenpachi's defenses and unleashed his dance of death with great speed and strength and it was like just one long move and like a fast paced dance. The Kenpachi finally got out of the dance and looked to see multiple scars from where Hakora got through. He through his smaller sword down and put both hands on his largest blade and went back at Hakora. This made him stronger and faster, Hakora again went on the defense, but this time he could not keep up and the Kenpachi ran his blade through Hakora's stomach.

"You fought well kid, you died with honor."

Hakora fell to the ground in his own blood and was quickly fading and dieing. "It can't end like this....not now....." "Do you wanna be stronger?" "Kitsu, is that you?" "Yes" "I need you my friend, help me to live!" "If I do will you kill him and fight with my true self? I can no longer be in my sealed form after your brother's death. If you wanna live you must know your life will be a life of battle, are you willing to accept that?" "Of course, help me beat this kenpachi and I will bring down our brother's killer!"

Hakora's pressure began to rise higher then it had before. It made the massive arena began to start caving in. The Kenpachi fell to one knee unable to stand and Hakora stood in front of him with his bankai clothing and a spear. "I will take your bowing to me as a sign that I am stronger and your day as Kenpachi is over!" Hakora took his spear and slash him multiple times and cut off his head. He was now Kenpachi and took the hooded robe from the dead Kenpachi which had the Kenpachi 79 seal on the back. Before Hakora left he had the number 79 tattoo'd to his right cheek. He left for squad 12.
