It seemed that his trick of using the wind as a diversion went well, as his tackle succeeded as they fell on the roof with her shouting to stop and then shunpoing out of his grasp and onto the floor which made him scratch his head but shrug in the end and drop to the floor. She told him that he was good in her books which made him grin and seal his sword. "I knew my determination would prevail! It showed my conviction and powered through to the end. And sorry about the eye patch."

A right foot slammed down on a roof just above Rio, the tiles cracking slightly. The figure looked down at Rio, their cloak flowing in the wind with the hood up, hiding their face. Their spiritual energy was almost impossible to sense then the cloaked figure spoke "It's been awhile...and yet, you still look as beautiful as the last time I saw you" The figure's arms then raised up as it's hands gripped the hood and threw it back, the light splashing onto their face as a small smirk formed on the revealed mans face and instantly she'd recognize that it was Kaizo "I'm back and this time...I'm staying..."

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

Neil dropped to the floor, grinning. He then sprouted another one of his cheesy lines, which made Rio physically facepalm before looking at him, still covering her eye. Deciding to ignore his line, she smiled again. "Don't worry about it... I just need to get another one" Rio turned and took one step before she heard something slam into the roof of the barracks. The sudden noise shocked her, but she was on guard instantly. Looking towards who made the noise, Rio's eyes narrowed at the unknown figure. The figure then began to talk...

"It's been awhile...and yet, you still look as beautiful as the last time I saw you" "... H-huh?" The voice was hazy in her mind, but she felt that she knew it... It sounded familiar to her... Perplexed, Rio watched the figure grab it's hood but no amount of time could of prepared her for what she was about to see.... Rio's left eye began widening dramatically as her mouth fell agape... She was undeniably frozen, paralysed by the guy looking back at her... "K-Kaizo..." Her voice and breath shook, but what shocked her the most was the last thing he said. "I'm staying..." 'S-staying?... "B-but.... You sh-shouldn't be h-here... I-It's too d-dangerous..." Unable to hold back, a tear unknowingly escaped from her left eye, sliding down her cheek. Forgetting her surroundings including Neil, Rio was too focused on Kaizo... It had been so long, so hard for her not to miss him, not to see him... And now, finally, he had come back... but at what cost?

Kaizo watched Rio a small smile on his face then he listened to her speak however his face grew serious when he saw a tear roll down her left cheek, Kaizo shunpoed and appeared before Rio then wrapped his arms around her, his right hand on the back of her head as he held her close to his chest "No...they wont get what they want, not this time...I'm staying here like it or not...there is nothing they can do to stop me." Kaizo then stood back slightly and moved his right hand around to her left cheek and wiped her tear away with his thumb, he then noticed her right eye "What happened to your eye? did he do it?" Kaizo said moving his head off in the direction of the man she had just been fighting...

Koujaku watched the two play cards and it was just...odd...there was no emotion between them! the room was growing cold just by this card game, it was sucking all the emotion out of the room, he was however shocked at Akira, this was the first time he had ever seen him play a game let alone a card game...he had never played any card game yet he played masterfully...Koujaku watched the two and the end result was unexpected, completely unexpected "A-A Draw?" Akira had somehow led them to a draw, something harder to do than win or lose...Akira wasn't bothered by this at all, yet he showed no enjoyment or sorrow...just nothing, Koujaku then spoke "The hell did I just watch?"

Celestria

"A... draw" Celestria couldn't believe it... She had always won, always! Who was this guy?... Celestria's eyes had widened for a second before they returned to their normal size as she looked up at Akira. "How did you.. tie with me? What type of being are you?" She analysed him once more, only to receive nothing, again. For the first time ever, Celestria... smiled? The tiniest of smiles added a little life to her pale face as she thought about the match, finding the feeling of drawing rather... pleasing. "Fascinating" Just as quickly as it appeared, Celestria's smile vanished, returning her back to normal. It was as if she had never even smiled, no joy showed, no annoyance, no anger or signs of becoming upset... A clear slate. Looking up at Koujaku, Celestria spoke. "Akira is a rather worthy opponent, the only one in whom I hadn't won in a game. A rather thought-provoking friend you have here Koujaku, I'm impressed." Her voice was monotonous, however her words were clearly positive towards Akira.

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

Rio was still shocked to see the love of her life finally return.... He shunpo'ed off of the roof he stood on and appeared in front of her suddenly, causing Rio to widen her eye a little further before he wrapped his arms around her. A light blush dusted her cheeks while she gulped, wrapping her arms around Kaizo in return before he let go after saying something... Rio didn't know who they were but she didn't want to ask about that right now... Feeling Kaizo's touch calmed her majorly. Rio felt safe just knowing he was here. Still covering her eye, Kaizo asked her about it which made her snap out of her delighted daze and begin to panic a touch. "U-um.. N-no... He didn't do it..." Rio looked down with her left eye, knowing that she had to tell Kaizo the truth... she couldn't keep something as big as this a secret from Kaizo... However, she couldn't bring herself to speak, so instead...

Taking a deep breath, Rio let her right hand drop. "N-now... don't get mad.. O-okay?" She looked up with her left eye for a minute before looking back down, slowly opening her right eye to reveal a crystal where her eye should be... Waiting patiently while keeping her eyes to the group, Rio hoped Kaizo wouldn't flip out or just leave her due to this.... These thoughts made her feel anxious...

Neil stared at the two, as it looked like they were pretty close to each other. The male then assumed that Neil was the perpetrator behind Rios eye, which she assured him he wasn't. Well not the eye anyway. Neil started to back away. "Ill let you two have some privacy. Looks like you two got some catching up." Neil said as he walked towards the gate instead of the barracks. Now where would a place that sells eyepatches be? I will feel guilty about making her lose the one she had.

As the two spoke Kenji just leaned against a building occasionally picking at his nails hardly paying attention aside from a few things here and there, Kenji looked up once pretty eyes said, "Have fun with Sunshine," then left soon after. Blowing at his nails he then shook his hand then looked up at Aya, "Well that was a sweet moment, now wasn't it?" Kenji said with a small smirk, "You seem to be alright now, are you Dove?" Kenji crossed his arms, eyes drifting off of her for a second before they returned.

After Souta left Aya still felt a bit bad about what happened, so when Kenji spoke up she gave a shrug. "I won't lie and say I'm one hundred percent back to my old self. I do feel a bit bad about denying him, but I just hope he doesn't hate me for it. I'm more surprised you are still here, I thought you would have left by now. You don't have to worry about me, i'll be fine. Just so I know how much did you exactly hear?"

"Something about demon....girls....love...Monsters?" Kenji said with a shrug before he noticed he had actually made a sentence out of that, "Besides, you shouldn't feel bad about denying anyone. It's pretty much about what you want, especially in situations like those. Atleast that's the way I see it, and if that man hates you for rejecting him then that boy is gonna be very disappointed later in life. But I'm sure he's not like that, he seems alright....Homosexual it seems too, I mean, have you seen his eyes? That must run in their family. I'm surprised those two like women, if anything I assumed they were a couple." Kenji let out a breath and rubbed his hair.

Aya giggled slightly and looked up at him. "Ah does that mean I'm Homosexual....... actually don't answer that I didn't think that through very well. But hey I like his eyes, I wish mine were like that its look so neat, wouldn-" Aya was cut off when Fire suddenly rained down upon her, she of course got out of it quickly enough dusting off a flame that caught on her top. When she looked around she saw a Young man probably younger than her with red hair standing on a rooftop, he was holding a sword that had a dragons head as a hilt and instead of a blade it was breathing out fire. He also wan't wearing a shinigami uniform thats for certain "I finally found you! Today is the day you die she beast!" The man said jumping off the roof and thrust his blade at Aya Causing the fire to shoot out at her. This Made Aya look around for her sword only to realize she left it back at Squad 8 when she ran. "Shit. Who are you anyway kid!" Aya said dodging the attack only to realize Kenji was behind her. "Ah! Orange look out!"

As fire rained down on Kenji's he raised an eyebrow with the only words coming out of his mouth being, "...The fuck?" Kenji wondered what the fuck was going on until some eight year old yelled, "I finally found you! Today is the day you die she beast!" and now he knew what the fuck was going on. He assumed it was because of her demon form? He didn't know. As Aya jumped out of the way she yelled for him to get out of the way in which he stayed there, raising his energy letting the fire hit him. Snarling, he walked out of the flames reaching back for his Zanpakuto, "Your fire is so fucking weak kid," he said as he walked closer not minding the small flames on his Shihakusho, "Now not only have you pissed her off, but you've also pissed me off. You disturb up my relaxation, you tried to hurt a mother who's looking for her child, and to top it off your weak as shit! Destroy or Create, Kami!" Kenji's voice raised more and more as he spoke. Once he activated his Shikai he went straight into his Apollo form, hair and eyes lighting up. He aimed and shot two arrows quickly, ten foot explosive radius.

As the man took his fire then said how weak it was the boy glared and rapidly stomped his feet. "Shut up freak! This is between me and her, you can sit on the sidelines and be a freak you are!" The boy shouted only to find two arrows flying at him, The boy then pointed his sword at the ground and used the flames to propel him into the air. "Now stay out of my way douche!" The boy shouted as he then propelled himself towards Aya once again swinging his swords shooting out more flames that didn't really cause her harm, but flames are flames, they can be deadly if they catch anything on fire. "Beating you will prove my worth so hurry up and die you foul creature!" The boy shouted again continuing to swing his sword with Aya dodging, if she had her sword she could easily fight back, but with him throwing flames everywhere, she didn't want to risk getting burned. "Hey Orange, can you handle him, I forgot my zanpakuto back at Squad eight."

"I'll kill him if you asked me to, I might just do it anyways!" Kenji said as he shot all his arrows into the air. Activating Hermes Kenji walked forward then ended up walking up to the eight year old, "You really are a child," Kenji said before he sent his foot into the boy's gut sending him back. Kenji then shot forward and tackled him into a portal in which they were now in the air falling down. Kenji put his feet on the boy's gut and jumped off it into another portal leaving the boy to fall but there was more to it. The boy was falling while the arrows he shot upwards earlier were now below him, he was planning for him to fall into the twenty five foot explosion, atleast a little bit.

The boy found himself being kicked in the gut and sent backwards where he found himself on the receiving end of a insult followed by another kick and then a tackle yet was somehow in the air. Kenji then pushed off him and the boy looked down to see the arrows behind him, which caused him to grit his teeth as they connected and exploded in the air with him. Yet when the smoke cleared The kid seemed to be okay for the most part as he jumped down to the ground. "Ow that stings you shit! And who are you calling a kid you geezer! I am 157! Not that it matters Cause I Leo will burn you alive Orange!" Leo shouted as he took a deep breath before putting his hand over the dragons mouth of his hilt stopping the flames, but the kid then shunpoed above Kenji and opened his mouth and shot flames straight down upon the man, in fact he might notice the flames were a bit hotter this time around.

"Yeah, keep yapping ya' mouth kid," Kenji replied. As the boy shunpo'ed above him and shot flames at him, Kenji simply looked up letting the flames engulf him. He noticed the flames had gotten hotter and probably got a burn here and there but he didn't let that stop him. A hand stuck out of the flames and shot towards the kid's neck, if he had gotten hold of it then he would have slammed him into the ground.

Leo saw the mans hand shoot through the flames and grab him by the neck slamming Leo into the ground, Leo wasted no time in shunpoing away shouting in anger. "Damnit, you are an annoying bug! Screw what I've been told! I will crush you at any means necessary!!!" The kid shouted as he started to steam, quite literally steam started to rise from from his as his eyes flashed red, but suddenly he was elbowed in the head from behind by a white haired male. Leo then fell unconscious and the white haired male picked the kid up. 'My apologies, you know how kids are. Always thinking they are tougher than everyone." The man then started to walk away with the child over his shoulder. That was close, this kid is more trouble than its worth. I deserve a raise for this.

Kenji watched as the boy's eyes began turning red and he began steaming but soon was knocked out and picked up by some white haired man who spoke, "My apologies, you know how kids are. Always thinking they are tougher than everyone." Kenji spat and replied, "Well that thinking is going to get the little shit killed, best tell him to leave Aya alone or else he's most defiantly going to end up dead." Would have went all out but he wasn't worth it, too weak, Kenji thought as he turned around, sheathed his sword, and walked away.

Leo soon woke up and started yelling and trying to break out of Kites grip. "Stupid Kite unhand me, i must destroy the she beast and geezer! i will destroy you too if you don't unhand me!" Leo continued yelling and all Kite did was sigh as he continued walking until Aya shunpoed in front of him. "Hey Leo right? Do you by any chance know someone called Sieg?" Aya spoke which made Kite's eyes widen as Leo looked back at her. "Huh? Of course hes my father." This made Kite pulled out his sword and grit his teeth. "Shit! That was suppose to be a secret Leo!" Kite shouted as he started shunpoing the opposite direction of Aya and straight past Kenji, the rate at which he could shunpo was indeed impressive. "Oh yeah it was, oh well who's going to stop us. Some dumb demon bitch, and a man called fucking Orange, I'd be more scared of Squad five." Leo said flicking off Kenji and waving. Aya wasted no time in chasing after even without a zanpakuto.

Souta Fushimaru Hari

Souta continued to shunpo his way back to Squad 8. The smile he showed Aya to try and make her cheer up had long since dropped off of his face... Looking down, he watched his feet as he moved, sighing. 'Me and Aya... would never work out anyway... hmm, well, Sunshine is more suitable... Wait, why am I thinking about this? There's nothing to think about anymore... I just need to get back' After a while, Souta found himself standing at the gates of Squad 8. Stepping into the barracks, he felt something unusual under his foot, causing him to immediately move it back. 'Huh?' Looking down, Souta's eyes widened slightly. 'Aya's Zanpakuto? What is it doing he-Oh yeah, she left abruptly so must of forgotten it...' Picking up the sword, he removed Konome's Zanpakuto from his back. 'Sorry sis but I'm going to have to leave this behind... I'll come back for it' Souta shunpo'ed into Fumio's room, placing the blade on top of the table. He almost instantly noticed Chie sleeping on Fumio's bed which made his body tense. 'Must... be ... quiet' The moment he had placed the blade, Souta shunpo'ed once more to leave the room without making any unnecessary sounds.

Wrapping his left arm around Aya's sword while putting his left hand in his pocket, Souta made sure the sword was secure before shunpo'ing again, making his way back to the area he was in only mere moments again. 'I hope they haven't left yet...' Speeding up, Souta focused on reaching his destination... Once he got there, he couldn't believe the damage that had occurred while he was gone...

"What happened here?" Souta thought allowed after a short gasp. "Aya?!" He yelled... Hopefully she wasn't too far...

Kenji was confused as shit went down, something about some guy named Sage and his daughter? Kenji shrugged and seen Aya run after them, obviously they had something to do with her and, well....He was going to help her out if he could. As Souta came around the corner calling her name Kenji shunpo'ed over to him and grabbed her Zanpakuto without a word then shunpo'ed to Aya, running beside her, "Think you may want this, Dove," Kenji said as he handed the Zanpakuto to Aya even as they ran side by side.

Souta Fushimaru Hari

Souta called out Aya's name but didn't receive an answer... Instead, Sunshine appeared infront of him, causing him to step back as a reflex. Just as Souta was about to ask what was going on, Kenji had already taken Aya's sword off of his hands and left. Blinking a few times, Souta titled his head to the right a touch, an eyebrow raised in confusion before he shrugged. "Oh well... Looks like whatever's going on, they're taking care of it." Turning around, Souta made his way back to Squad 8 again, exhaustion dawning on his mind, reminding him of just a long day it had been... First Konome, then Dr Heigai, then Aya and Sunshine and now this... Atleast now he could finally get the rest he needed...
