Frost Queen

Contrasting Ohta's expectations, Sode-no-Shirayuki didn't try to compete with Rukia for his attention. Instead, she egged the latter on, pressing her to be more proactive while she sat in seiza off to the side, observing them with reddened cheeks.

Objectively speaking, since Rukia's and Sode-no-Shirayuki's senses were linked, it didn't matter which of them Ohta fucked. However, as Rukia was his woman, Ohta focused on her, forcing the petite Shinigami into dozens of different positions as they transitioned from their bed to the floor, atop most of their furniture, and even against the wall. Rukia struggled quite a bit at first, instinctually attempting to resist the pleasure, but after a while, both she and Ohta stopped caring, causing their lovemaking to become a lot more 'primal.'

Unfortunately, while Ohta wished he could fuck indefinitely like some kind of tireless sex god, his stamina had its limits. The semen he shot out was also packed with his Reiryoku, so after a few hours, Rukia was a twitching mess while he genuinely felt like he was on the verge of death. It was at that point that Sode-no-Shirayuki chose to get directly involved. However, instead of entreating him for sex, she cradled his head in her cool bosom, caressing his hair as he often did for Rukia...

After their three-day descent into the abyss of pleasure, Ohta and Rukia returned to the underground chamber after recuperating, joined only by Soifon and Rangiku as Yoruichi had returned to Soul Society and Orihime was at school.

Standing in a relaxed Zanjutsu pose with her eyes closed, wielding the pure white katana representing Sode-no-Shirayuki's initial release, Rukia exhaled a frigid sigh, the roots of her hair gradually turning white as she muttered, "Bankai..." in a neutral tone.

In response to Rukia's utterance, her Reiatsu exploded outward in an eruption of ice and snow, similar to when Sode-no-Shirayuki manifested. When the explosion inverted, swirling around her before dissipating, Rukia no longer wore the standard Shihakusho of a Shinigami. Instead, she had on a pure white, ankle-length kimono with lined patterns. Unlike a normal kimono, however, it had an ornate collar, edges, and shoulder design with long, wide sleeves. Long ribbons formed loops behind her back, flowing gracefully in response to the fluctuations of her Reiatsu, while flowers of ice adorned her snow-white hair and the center of her chest, the former resembling a crown. As for her Zanpakuto, its shape hadn't changed, but the blade became transparent, resembling pure, unblemished ice.

Opening her eyes, revealing they had also become white, Rukia's voice sounded bone-chillingly cold and emotionless as she muttered, "Hakka-no-Togame(Censure of the White Haze)..." the name of her Bankai.

"Wow..." remarked Rangiku, genuinely awed by how beautiful Rukia's Bankai was. Ohta was similarly impressed, but he and Soifon had frowns as they simultaneously realized something was wrong.

While Rukia had certainly attained Bankai, artificially inflating her Reiryoku density and drastically increasing her Reiatsu, she hadn't moved a muscle since activating it. She appeared to be just as frozen as the terrain around her, and even from several tens of meters away, Ohta felt like he was in a deep freezer whose door had slammed and locked behind him.

Condensing psychic energy around his body, Ohta used Shunpo to reach Rukia's side, the ridiculously low temperature in the surroundings causing a visible layer of ice to appear across the surface of his psychic barrier as he eyed her up, asking, "You okay, monkey-bun?"

Other than raising her eyes slightly, Rukia didn't respond to Ohta's words. She appeared to be frozen solid, and, as far as Ohta could tell, she wasn't breathing. Rather, after inserting a thread of energy into her body, Ohta's pupils contracted when he realized that not even feel her blood flowing...

*crack*

Though it was faint, Ohta felt a chill even colder than his surroundings when he heard a sharp sound emanate from Rukia's body, followed by a hair-thin crack appearing from her left eyelid to her jaw. She didn't bleed, but Ohta suspected that would change rapidly once her blood and body began to thaw...

Ignoring the danger, Ohta placed his hand, very gently, against Rukia's chest. He felt a potent chill even through the protection of his psychic and spiritual membranes, but he ignored it, consciously drawing the cold into his body as he depleted Rukia's Reiryoku. Yoruichi had informed him of his ability to absorb, adapt, and convert external energies before he became a Shinigami, so that's what Ohta did, his hair gradually turning white as a faint shade of pink returned to Rukia's complexion. With it, blood began to ooze from the crack in her face, but it was nothing a brief rest in her Gigai couldn't fix. If not, Orihime definitely could.

With no Reiryoku to sustain itself, Rukia's Bankai eventually dispersed, her hair regaining its raven sheen. At the same time, her pristine white kimono evaporated into icy mist, replaced by a standard black Shihakusho as she collapsed into Ohta's waiting embrace. His left arm and hair had lost their color, turning pure white, but his chest and right arm exuded a powerful warmth as he held her tenderly and stated, "You did well. Now sleep..." in a faint, soothing, somewhat assertive tone.

As Rukia collapsed from exhaustion, Ohta called out, "Soifon..." in a voice that was barely a whisper. Despite this, Soifon immediately appeared next to him, asking, "Shall I go and retrieve the one called Inoue Orihime...?"

Seeing Ohta nod, Soifon promptly vanished. In her wake, Rangiku walked over, asking, "How is she...?" in a concerned tone.

"She'll be fine..." assured Ohta, speaking more to himself than Rangiku. At the same time, he couldn't help wondering if something had gone wrong. Rukia's Bankai was nearly as devastating as his Kūsho, but the damage it caused was even more indiscriminate. After all, while his Kūsho hindered his senses, it didn't harm his body. Rukia's Hakka no Togame froze the very blood in her veins, and if she weren't careful, her entire body would fracture and crumble...

Feeling uncomfortable, Rangiku scratched her head, deliberating for a few seconds before asking, "Do you think it would be a good idea to move her to the hot spring?"

"That...is a very good idea..." conceded Ohta, attempting to pick up Rukia with just his right hand before Rangiku said, "Let me carry her. You should do something about that arm of yours before it gets even worse..."

Looking down at his left arm, Ohta noticed that pieces of his skin and a few crystalline chunks of flesh had flaked away without him realizing it. He could still move it, somehow, but he had absolutely no feeling in the appendage.

"You're on a roll today..." joked Ohta, entrusting Rukia's unconscious body to Rangiku. It was difficult for her to carry people due to her massive tits getting in the way, but Rukia's frame was light enough that Rangiku could extend her arms and support her with her elbows locked if she wanted to. Instead, she cradled the unconscious Kuchiki in a princess carry, whisking her away with an unpolished but passable variant of Shunpo...

While he didn't exactly 'trust' Rangiku, Ohta only stared in the direction of the hot spring for a few seconds turning his attention to his left arm and attempting to manipulate the energy within. It was a little difficult since it wasn't his, but he eventually managed to reverse the flow, extending his left hand to unleash a destructive avalanche of ice and snow that froze everything from the position he was standing to the far wall more than 300m away before scattering due to the impact, extending up to the roof and covering nearly half the underground chamber in glacial ice...

"..."

("...")

Feeling Anpu's presence, Ohta's expression became serious as he said, "I want one..."

("It hasn't been that long since you attained your Shikai...") replied Anpu. However, as he already knew what Ohta was going to say, he added, ("I'll consider it if you willfully subordinate that woman with the ashen cat and the tiny one with the stinger...")

"What, like thrashing or fucking their Zanpakuto Spirits...?" asked Ohta.

("If that's what it takes...") replied Anpu, adding, ("So long as they aren't able to cross you, I don't care what means you use. Keeping them around when their loyalties lie elsewhere is exposing yourself and those you care about to unnecessary risk...)

"You're not wrong..." admitted Ohta. However, as he hadn't been informed that Soifon would also be utilizing the Tenshintai, he didn't know how best to subordinate her. He could try shaming or embarrassing her as he did in the elevator, but Ohta was pretty sure she 'enjoyed' being bullied. In other words, she was a massive masochist. Not surprising, considering who her Mistress was...

("Treat her as you did your mate...") said Anpu, his voice a low growl as he added, ("Ravish her diminutive frame so thoroughly she can't imagine life without you...")

Raising his brows, Ohta remarked, "You're pretty fucked up, man...you're starting to make me think I'm a monster deep down..."

("Others will regard you as a monster, so you might as well embrace it...") asserted Anpu. ("If your enemies and allies alike learn to fear you, you will finally be able to live as you please...")

"That might work if I was content to live alone," replied Ohta. "But I don't want Rukia to become ostracized by her family and friends. Fear is good, but it can't be the only sentiment people have toward us. As a part of me, you should understand the pain of that loneliness..."

("...")

After a long silence, Anpu eventually replied, ("As I said, I don't care what method you use. But be forewarned. If you attempt to use the Tenshintai to steal my power, I will neither hold back nor show you mercy. I will take your body, eliminate all those who would lead this world to ruin, and then claim everything you have forsook...")

"You can fucking try," growled Ohta, subsequently adding, "Damn mutt..." under his breath. He had never seriously considered using the Tenshintai to attain his Bankai, as he didn't think it was wise to 'cut corners.' His first use of Kūsho and seeing Rukia nearly self-destruct were good examples of what could happen if you tried to wield power you weren't prepared for. Thus, unless he had no other options, he would try to awaken his Bankai in the traditional manner, reaching a compromise with the prick that had the nerve to name itself after an Egyptian God(A/N: For those that don't know, Anpu is the original translation for Anubis)...

("I can hear your thoughts...") remarked Anpu. ("And I am neither a prick nor did I choose this name. It has been with me from the moment I first gained awareness. As for 'fucking trying,' I won't even need to. So long as you continue to hold back and value the lives of so-called 'innocents,' you can never defeat me.")

"We're done talking," said Ohta, promptly 'severing' the connection with Anpu. The two could never be truly separated, as Anpu shared his senses and memories, but he could weaken the connection to his Soul Palace by simply willing it. He could practically feel the temperamental jackal being a butthurt bitch, but Ohta ignored him, proceeding to the hot spring after closing up most of the wounds on his left arm. He found Rangiku bathing naked as she tended to Rukia's body, but as the buxom blonde had been dwelling in his guest room the past four days, Ohta didn't bat an eye. The same could be said for Rangiku, who, other than casting a glance toward his cock, appeared calm and composed as she asked, "Want me to wash you back?" with a faint, intrinsically alluring smile.

"Maybe later," replied Ohta, casting aside his clothes and descending into the pleasantly hot water, retrieving Rukia's body from Rangiku without any resistance. She was sensible enough to know better than getting between him and his woman. If she didn't, Ohta would have given her massive and voluptuous ass the boot on day one...
