Woodland Cemetary (Private)

Rihiku was having none of this. The guy was talking about what he thought was bullshit. How can he make such stupid acquisitions? A hollow invading Rihiku's body? Haikenmaru would have noticed as soon as it entered. In fact, at that moment Haikenmaru's face did somewhat drop into a worried stare. Rihiku looked towards her, she didn't seem normal. Maybe she knew something he wasn't telling him. Rihiku walked around to look at her face and she wasn't reacting to him. Rihiku turned to Kenshin and spoke threateningly.

"What have you done?"

Kenshin hadn't actually done anything himself. Once his mask had appeared, Haikenmaru froze in fear. Rihiku couldn't get her attention until suddenly, she vanished; turning back into her sword form and dropping to the floor. Rihiku quickly scooped it up and stared at it. Something was wrong. the sword was a duller blue than normal. He looked back to Kenshin, stern as always.

"Explain yourself. You predict Hollow are the ones doing this?"

Rihiku had no time to waste, spinning his sword in his hand so the handle was tightly gripped in his leather gloved hand, he raised his over hand over the sword and attempted to conjure some reitsu. Yelling his swords name, he swung his arm over the blade, expecting a blast of blue fire...

...nothing happened.

Rihiku looked astonished for the first time in his recent life. he looked back up to Kenshin and began to rapidly stride over, ready to grab the man by his neck and drive him into the ground. Sadly, he didn't make it that far. Half way to Kenshin, Rihiku's heart thudded. His eyes widened and he dropped his sword. What was this feeling? He was growing numb, yet his face was still displaying a look of anger towards Kenshin. he fell to his knee's clutching his chest as his body began to grow cold. What was weird is how he was immune to cold...

The man stated to moan, not his usual kind of painful struggle but sometimes you can't help it when something is trying to take over. Rihiku looked up at Kenshin, his eyes now black with a blue iris similar to Kenshins. He then thrust his head back and roared, white energy spewing from his mouth and drenching his entire body in white. After a few minutes, his transformation was complete.

Kneeling down, Rihiku was now perfectly white, his entire body figure coated in a white shell of Hollow armour similar to how Aizen appeared when he fused with the Hogyoku. his hair was visible however, but it was slowly changing colour and growing out of the back of a White mask. His coat had also developed into his body as it gave his back a pair of white wings folded down so it still looked like a coat out of his hips. His mask, jagged with a fierce expression looking as monstrous as monstrous could get. His eyes were glowing blue but this too was slowly changing colour and all across his body were pulsing electrical lines of reitsu. Rihiku had become exactly what kenshin was talking about.

What had happened exactly?...

Rihiku's body began to make drastic changes as he stared down his opposition. Kenshin still stood there still watching the event take fold but this didn't mean he wasn't prepared for a battle. Rihiku's body continued to mould itself into the new being but before he could be complete, A massive blast of wind surrounded then beat down on his body. Being slammed to the ground, Rihiku held his arms out to the sides with his palms held onto the floor, elbows bent. His knee's dug into the dirt with his toes pointing downwards too. his head facing the ground and with all his might, pushed back against the wind. However, this had taken him too early and he was unable to counteract this with sheer force. Instead, he had to take a defensive stance. The winds blasting around him grew frighteningly cold as Rihiku's entire body began to encase itself in a thick block of ice that continued to grow and grow. Each time the wind would shatter part of it, new ice would rapidly grow back over it.

Rihiku could not be heard whilst inside this ice prison. The speed the Ice was now growing was scarily fast as Ice would replace more than what was beaten down by the wind. Soon, a Pillar of Ice was forged increasing it's density to a point where merely slamming it wouldn't do a thing. Nothing happened for a few moments before all of a sudden, the Ice was sliced in twine, falling left and right creating a powerful gust of Ice crystals that blew up a misty veil. What was weird, was how the blast, ice and aura was now glowing purple. The dust settled, and in it's place stood a newly forged monster. It's body covered entirely in black and purple metals. It's hair long a purple and on it's face, a jet black mask with pulsing lines of reitsu. He opened his mouth, the mask splitting along the middle revealing thousands of sharp metallic fangs and a tongue in the shape of a sword. The tongue slivered forwards, bending like a normal tongue. The tip then began to glow a vigorous purple before releasing a wave of powerful energy, a Cero from it's mouth.

Meanwhile elsewhere within Rihiku's inner world, a different battle had begun. Two swords continuously smashed against one another, one always shattering into dust. Blue shards of ice flew in all directions as two men swung blades at one another. One dressed in blue being Rihiku and one in red, looking similar with white hair, a coat and a sword. This man was not Rihiku however. His strikes were much harder, breaking Rihiku's Ice swords each time he crafted one. Neither man looked like they were letting up though as the fight grew more and more intense. Suddenly, Rihiku brought down two swords on the man, forcing him to block and bounding Rihiku backwards giving him some breathing room. The man in red slammed his blade into the floor and moulded what looked like two pistols made of Ice into his hands. He then began rapidly firing shards of Ice at Rihiku of whom blocked every bullet with quick rotations with his wrist, spinning the blade like a helicopter.

This soon changes as well when Rihiku stopped spinning his sword and instead, swung back at the bullets each time they shot towards him. The flat edge of the sword was cold and would rebuild the shattered structure of the ice bullets when they struck. He swung his sword at each strike of a bullet, sending it back at the man in red of whom would shoot that bullet out of the air and follow up with a second one at an even faster speed. The man in red started to laugh menacingly while Rihiku rapidly deflected his bullets at a blinding speed. he didn't even look like he was taking this fight seriously at all. However the look on Rihiku;s face would say different as it was slightly more stern and furious as normal. This was probably because of the girl behind him laying in a pool of blood from her stomach. She resembled Haikenmaru...
