Watching the crimson Cero launch right for Kyra, Ai flipped her blade into an inverted grip - she waited for the moment Kyra would move to evade the attack. That is when Ai would close the distance, at range she had no chance against a Kidou Master, but close range it was to her advantage with her level of mastery with the blade. Wait... why is Kyra not attempting to evade the attack...? "Oh dear god...", Ai's eyes widened in dismay - this is not what she wanted - not at all, "Kyra! Don't be stupid!", she exclaimed as she watched Kyra begin to cast a level ninety spell. Ai is not the best at Kidou, but she knew enough to know with Kyra's level of fatigue, such a casting is next to suicide, especially against a Cero.
When the two attacks collided the devastating explosion rocked everything around them with a force that made Ai brace herself to hold her ground. All Ai could do is look on in horror and dread for Kyra, fearing the absolute worse. Ai's breath was shakey in the face of immense of terror she felt over what she has just done, "Not again... not again....", she mumbled utterly horrified - another she holds dear - another she loves struck down by her own hand.
It is not what she wanted - just like back then it was not what she wanted. Back then she what she wanted was to die, but instead she inadvertently murdered her own sister. Now she was hoping to force Kyra to evade, so she could close the gap between them, and possibly disarm Kyra - so she could reason with Kyra further; but all she wound up doing was bringing Kyra immense harm. None of it is what she wanted - it is never what she wanted.
Landing before Kyra as she staggered toward Ai, all Ai found she could do was look on completely dismayed and broken to the core at the results of what she had done to Kyra. Tears steaming out of her eyes as she stood trembling with a broken heart. She watched Kyra raise her blade to her, and Ai stood there trembling doing nothing - in fact she hoped Kyra did strike her down. Though, when the woman dropped her blade and fell upon Ai, Ai wrapped her arms around Kyra holding onto her dearly. Kyra's head resting her head on Ai's chest, she could easily feel the warmth from Ai's body. All that covered Ai's bare body was a dense layer of reiatsu making her look like a silhouette of cyan light without her mask or silhouette of darkness with it - hence why the hues are different with or without the mask - somewhat an expression of the dualistic nature of the Vizard's reiatsu. Kyra's words before slipping into unconsciousness only made Ai break down in tears crying, while simple they were a greater weapon against Ai than any spell or blade.
Even the black ghostly tendrils radiating from Ai's upper back begun to wrap around Kyra in a tender embrace. A moment later Ai's mask crumbled completely off of Ai's face as she dropped her blade upon the ground, and her body radiated with a bright white light engulfing them both. A mere second later the light receded and unveiled Ai back in the clothes she wore previous to her Bankai transformation, and her sealed zatoichi zanpakuto laying on the ground. Ai fell to her knees as she held onto Kyra, holding her close to her chest. Ai continuing to cry as she held the crimson haired girl, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... please... please forgive me...", Ai wept with a whispering voice, "I can't lose you, too... please, Kyra...", holding the woman tenderly as she cried a few droplets of her tears running off her sharp, angular jaw line fell upon Kyra's cheek...
