Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] FfUhy9b




Abalia Kyoraku-Hayden


There was a grave silence as Abalia walked through the prison of the Gotei. She supposed it was a blessing that she did not need to go into the Maggot's Nest, though of course she would have if the need arose. Of course, the Vice Captain Commander did not walk these halls with her normal demeanor, a modest if confident sort of stature.

No, today Abalia walked with a purpose. Her every step carried with it the absolute assurance of her position, of her own ability. Her gaze alone could have sent men thousands of times stronger than herself into a state of shock due simply to the untethered will behind it. This was Abalia as very few ever saw her, a woman who rarely needed to rear her head.

This was Abalia when she truly wished to strike fear into others' hearts.

After a long, silent walk, her aura so striking as to seemingly make the whole prison colder, they eventually arrived at the cell she had requested. Maximum security, a prisoner only she had the authority to visit. A prisoner she intened to speak with today. The guards unlocked the vault wordlessly, a complex matter with a great many steps. As soon as it opened, she entered, and looked toward the prisoner within with those resolute, ice-cold eyes, a look of supremacy so absolute that it made any difference in power seem wholly insignificant.

"Hime Tatsumiya. Stand."

HIME TATSUMIYA

Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] JCRrxmK





Judgment is something men or women must face one day, even more so if they were the ones who lived their lives as tyrants or murderers. It was a timeless concept that spoken of in mythology and religion. To the woman residing in her prison cell, she felt herself to be of no exception to that indomitable rule. She was no saint, no savior. Her life was not one that had ever been glorious; the path of bloodshed was endless. Of course, it would all end today.

The woman born into this realm as Kirei Tatsumiya would be judged for her crimes. Her gaze seemed distant, lifeless to such a point that one may have very well mistaken her for an inanimate doll. It was comical to think that not long ago, she was present within the same room, yet faced with a man who had offered her a path towards salvation, towards redeeming herself in the eyes of others.

He was foolish. Even to the end, Hime clung to her idea that murderers were not above the law, not worthy of the divine gift of forgiveness. Retribution is all that should await them at the end of their path. Her day of judgment was finally here. She could hear the footsteps approaching, could feel a powerful presence that held no form of the sentiment of nonsense.

The bars to her prison cell were opened, as a woman with a posture - so dignified and powerful it was - entered. Her ice-cold gaze bore down on Hime like a pair of viper’s fangs.

If Abalia’s posture was one of supremacy, then Hime’s was one that seemed pitifully meager in comparison. Rising from the floor, Hime silently observed the Vice-Captain Commander and quietly awaited her judgment. Hopefully… she would be different. She would judge her for what she truly was… murderer.

Abalia Kyoraku-Hayden


Abalia was not one to waste time on idle moments of consideration. She would not take any more than a fraction of a secon to study the woman before her, before speaking again, her tone still conveying the overwhelming authority she carried herself with.

"You have been held here for your service to the Kokuryuteshi, and by extension your crimes against the Gotei and the Soul Cycle. It is only your treason toward Kin Iramasha that you have been neither executed nor sent to the Maggot's Nest."

There was no hostility or ill will in the Vice Captain Commander's voice, only a firm totality to every word she said. She was not asking questions, nor even reminding Hime of the situation. She was simply making clear that they were all on the same page, that there were no misunderstandings.

"I have come for answers from you. You will tell me your reason for your betrayal."

A command, issued without any hesitation with the full weight of the woman's inhuman willpower. The average person likely would have broken simply from the words alone, due simply to the overwhelming force behind them. But Abalia had higher expectations than that for this prisoner.

HIME TATSUMIYA

Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] JCRrxmK




Abalia was a mighty presence indeed.. Her demeanor, her speech… none of it held any pretense, any falsehood. Hers was a will that desired only the truth and nothing else - and if your aim was to deceive her, nothing but a swift punishment awaits you at the end.

That immense willpower bearing down on her had caused Hime’s eyes to focus on the woman. They were no longer distant or empty. Her amber eyes were now filled with what one could certainly call “the essence of life.”

Even if she wished to be stubborn, Abalia’s very form had persuaded her to follow her instructions. Hime’s brows furrowed at the mention of Kin Iramasha. The unquestioned leader of the Kokuryuteshi. Recalling that moment, she had indeed betrayed him in favor of her own selfish gain. That seemed to be a reoccurring theme in her life. I began with her sister, started with ender, and ended with Kin Iramasha.

Of course, for her to ask that was odd. Or rather, it indicated that her plan was not to immediately execute her on the spot as Hime so welcomingly wished. To hesitate would only complicate things. And besides, when faced with such a will as her Abalia’s, it was better to simply follow along rather than fight against the flow.

Gazing into those fierce eyes, Hime nodded as she straightened her shoulders, preparing a heartfelt explanation. After all, she had not betrayed Kin for power. She had betrayed him for her family, her sister.

“You wish to know why I betrayed Kin Iramasha? I suppose that is a legitimate question that requires a heartfelt answer. I… betrayed him because of one person. My sister… when he had announced that his plans were to eventually wage war against soul society and that he aimed to take down the Soul King, I could not bear the thought of seeing my sister caught up in a war.

To that end, I selfishly valued her life over the life of a man who was once my lover. There is nothing more to it than that. He did not betray me. He never once threatened my life or used my sister as a hostage to do his bidding. It was simply a clash of interests. It is not something I regret, and it is also something I would do thousands of times over. Are there any other questions you wish to ask? ”

Hime curiously gazed at Abalia as she awaited further questioning, if the woman intended to ask any more questions.

"For love of family, then."

There was not a single change in Abalia's countenance as she spoke, but inwardly, as she took a fraction of a second to dissect that whole response, she found that it was not disagreeable. From a personal standpoint, as a mother to be, she found it admirable. From the professional standpoint, which was all that mattered to her, she considered it an acceptable answer.

"Where is your sister now? Do not lie to me."

Abalia wanted Hime's answer to that question. It was information that was absolutely vital, and it was as though the very air in the room itself grew heavier with the Vice Captain Commander's reminder of the value of honesty. She was willing to extend a great deal of good will this day, but it would not simply be given freely.

HIME TATSUMIYA

Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] JCRrxmK




The atmosphere of the room had grown palpably tense.

Of course, this tense atmosphere did not particularly bother Hime; she surmised that someone of a lesser mind would’ve broken under the weight of this woman’s indomitable will. What held her curiosity most about this woman so far was a mixture of her questions and her plan of action. Abalia's next question only enhanced the curiosity nagging at her heart.

Abalia was inquiring about the whereabouts of her sister. For a moment, Hime had contemplated asking why she wished to know that but she held her curiosity at bay, forming a reply through pursed lips. Before she actually said anything, Hime could not help but wonder herself where her sister might be.

It had been such a long time since the two drifted apart. On one hand, It dawned on her that if her sister was no longer apart of the Gotei, the likeliest place she could be found - in theory - would be the beloved cafe her mother had built and conducted business in the first district of Rukongai. Her mind temporarily wandered off to a place of wishful thinking before she steeled herself and answered Abalia’s question.


“I am uncertain as to whether this can be confirmed with absolute certainty… but I believe my sister resides in Rukongai. She had always said that one of her dreams was to retire there and continue preparing meals in the cafe our mother had built to make a living.”

These questions were so odd; they were certainly not the type one would extend towards a maximum-security prisoner. Hime observed the woman’s expression as she patiently waited for further questioning or judgment. She very much welcomed the latter.

Abalia considered that information for a moment, then filed it away for later, knowing quite fully that she may well have had a lead on this particular front. Even if her theory was incorrect, it would take little time to locate the woman. Regardless, that was not important at present. There was something else that had struck her.

"I have only a final question for you. You seem rather unsurprised for being visited in a maximum security prison. Were you expecting me? Or have there been others?"

At this point, the command of "do not lie" was simply implied through Abalia's tone. She did not even need to say it, so absolute was her gaze.

HIME TATSUMIYA

Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] JCRrxmK





A powerful gaze, so absolute that it pierced through her very soul, bore down on the prisoner. Those commanding eyes burned away any intent to lie. To be sure, there was never any intent to lie from the beginning but this woman's presence and the weight of her spirit were unyielding. Momentarily, as though breaking free from a trance, Hime nodded cooperatively as she explained the events that led to her temporary freedom.


"You are correct. I willingly returned, so that I might be judged properly. I have only been visited once before. It was a man... I'll say he was of average height. His build was not muscular by any stretch, but neither did it look unhealthy. His hair was jet black, like the color of a raven's feathers. His name... was Henrex Astillion. "

Mentioning that name, Hime quietly reminisced on the short time they had spent before his dismissal.

"I surmised that his presence here indicated I would be put to death, that my executioner had arrived... but he spared me. He raised no sword, passed no judgment. He simply, with unwavering persistence, told me that killing me wouldn't solve anything. He felt that my life still had a purpose, that I could be redeemed. As much as I cursed him for it, I accepted his judgment and for a time, I was stationed under his wing. Our time together came to an abrupt stop. He was dismissed from the Gotei Thirteen not long after."

Hime's expression appeared to be twisted with guilt. A small pang of remorse nagged at the strings of her heart. The guilt of feeling as if she was the cause of his misfortune had been suppressed ever since her return to these prison walls. To say nothing of the ever-present shame she had felt for abandoning him while she returned to face judgment.


"After his dismissal, he had come to a decision that he would spend his days under the vibrant lights of Minatumi. I did not think I was worthy of being bathed in such a light... and so I returned to be judged for my crimes."

Abalia Kyoraku-Hayden


"Thank you for your cooperation."

Abalia made a note of that for later, having certainly not authorized any such action. Most would consider it irrelevant, but the Vice Captain Commander was not a woman who considered anything irrelevant. It would simply be addressed at a later time, when she was not already handling a quite pressing matter.

"As Vice Captain Commander of the Gotei, and by extension Vice Captain of Realm Enforcement, the law is my domain. Your judgement will come from my own observations. However, for now I have use for you. I require someone who can enforce my will, who I can rely upon to operate as my right hand when physical force is demanded."

The weight of her gaze lightened, then, though by no means was it gentle. It was still cold, calculating, and above all else, judgmental.

"Your sister is under my protection as the Vice Captain of Realm Enforcement. I will ensure that she continues to live in peace. You will assist me in this endeavor, and provide me with all that I require. This is not a release from your sentence, merely an extension of it. If you step out of line even once, disobey even one single command, I will have you sent back to this cell without a moment's hesitation. Your actions in my service will serve as evidence toward my final judgment regarding your sentence. Are we understood?"

HIME TATSUMIYA

Contrition, Confession, and Satisfaction [Abalia, Hime] JCRrxmK




And so, in the space of a single interrogation, Hime's fate still remained undecided. She would not be condemned today. The cold embrace of the steel blade would remain elusive, avoiding the fate of death she so harshly felt she deserved. Even so, this time... something felt different about the opportunity she was granted.

The Princess of Death had deemed her life inconsequential. In her mind, no one deserved to die more than she did; life was too great a gift to accept for the mountains of corpses left in her wake.

Still, Abalia found her life to be of importance, promising that no harm would come to her beloved sibling; for her, nothing in this world mattered more. To be certain, it was not as if Abalia was granting her freedom... but did such trite details matter at this point? She was granted a twofold opportunity - to prove herself as Abalia's righthand, definitively showing she was redeemable in the eyes of the world... and ensuring that she could protect her sister, lest any harm befalls her.


Hime gazed into Abalia's powerful set of eyes, her gaze no by means unrelenting but neither as commanding as they were from the outset of their conversation. She rose from the ground, bowing in gratitude for the opportunity she had been given. In the back of her mind, she could not help but smile... at the thought of feeling like she had been proven wrong by a certain someone.


"Understood, Vice-Captain Commander. From this day forward, I will honorably operate as your blade, enforcing your will to anyone who deigns to step out of line. Of course... before I do so, I would like to properly introduce myself. My true name is... Kirei Tatsumiya. "

Introductions seemed pointless by now, but seeing as this woman intended to employ all forms of protection around her sister, revealing her true name was important. She would hide nothing from this woman.
