Shoske raised an eyebrow, his back feeling better and listening to Emilo "Listen" Shoske said as he stood up "I'm trusting you Emilo, just do me a favor" He paused, taking the seal from Emilo. He stabbed his zanpakuto in the ground and left it. "Don't die out there" Shoske turned away and quickly shunpoed towards the rock, reaching it in no time. However, the hard part was placing the seal. He tried to just place it on the stone, but it would fall off. "Hmm, so I'm guessing I'm gonna have to use Kido. Well here it goes" He placed the seal on the rock, attempting to complete the mission.The figure smirked, listening to the lots answer. "Dying isn't an option huh" He said, talking to himself. He looked at them and smelled the air. He sniffed it a few times, before a wide grin formed across his face. He appeared behind Kaizo, sniffing the air around him "Your smell...its familiar" He chuckled, vanishing once again this time behind Shoske "So he's hiding inside of the Soul Society huh" Shoske quickly turned, never noticing that the person was behind him. Before Shoske could react, the figures arm pierced his stomach. Shoske coughed up blood "H-hado 31 Shakkaho" Shoske teleported to his zanpakuto, leaving the red orb by the figure. The orb explloded, engulfing the figure. Once the smoke subsided, it was seen standing there, unharmed and unphased. It placed its finger on the seal "So your mission was this huh. It seems that you've failed" The seal was lit on fire, turning to ashes. The boulder began to crack from where the seal was, breaking down into pieces and the cave opening up. He turned to the group "Listen shinigami, the power you hold comes from the comrades by your side and the bonds which you formed. But is that true power? Do you have the raw power to dominate your surroundings? Do you have the instinct to intimidate and rule mindless, cannibal beasts? Do you posses immortality to allow you to slay your own comrades without a single thought? Do you contain the mindset to allow you break the mental bonds which chain you down to your mortal ways? You don't, none of you have the power to rule. The power of kings" Several black orbs formed infront of him "You have faced many challenges and tests to come to where you are today, but this will be the hardest. The chances of any of you surviving is...slim" He said, with a grim smile. He lifted his finger and pointed at the group, each of the orbs quickly appearing in front of each of the shinigamis. The orbs quickly expanded, engulfing each of the shinigamis. As quickly as they expanded, they vanished. The entire forest disappeared, nothing remaining but darkness and countless whispers invading their heads. Their bodies would lose all strength, causing them to collapse onto the sand. Before their conscious would fade, his dominating voice could be heard in their heads "Let us see if you can spend 100 years of solitude. Nothing but yourself, whispers attempting to make you give in to your darkness and countless battles in your mind. This is an ultimate test of you will, for if it falters for even a minute, then you will die. This is my gift to you, shinigamis, for piquing my interest. If any of you awake, you will have the power of a king but no memory of me. For I am just a shadow, watching over this vast desert" With that, each one of them would lose their consciousness. .(( In reality, it'll only take a couple of hours, just enough time to go back xD We'll all be back to normal, with our memory ending up til the hollow died o.o but ofcourse stronger >_< I think Kaizo should post first, with the rest of us waking up o.o just a post or two and we're done xD ))

((thanks put the pressure on me! xD))

Kaizo watched the being move around them and by the time you had realized it was there it was gone, then something else would happen and basically everything that happened Kaizo had a hard time to follow...mostly because he was trying to focus on this things speed and how it moved but nothing. The being then rambled on about things Kaizo didn't exactly care about but he listened anyway then he soon found himself in darkness and his memory of things before was...patchy...he could barely remember it...pieces were missing but where was he? Kaizo sat in the darkness and stopped thinking about things...thinking would drive him insane especially since random things were going on in his mind and then there were whispers which he choose to blank out, if this was some sort of torture it wouldn't work...Kaizo was a Squad 2 Shinigami and this was something he would experiance on day to day training but still he had no clue where he was...but already it felt like half his life had passed by...he didn't feel older...it was just odd. Kaizo then closed his eyes and when he opened them he awoke, he looked around for the others wondering where they were...
