[IC] Bleach: A New Dawn

[Expllo]

"What did you need me for?" Hikari asked as he entered Kenta's office wearing a new and clean Shihakusho, despite showing no signs of being wounded or in pain he had bandages wrapped around his torso and arms. He'd have to thank Mai and Fuma next time he was in Squad four, as well check up on Kasumi and Gai after the incident. But for now he was here for Kenta, and was focused on what he wanted.....He was there for Kenta, as Kenta was for him, they had each other's back.

"Something important.....But I can only tell you what once Rio gets here," Kenta said with a sigh as he leaned against his desk.

Hikari nodded then took a look at Kenta's arm, gazing, "Kenta....Why haven't you been updating your arms? They're still a year back."

Kenta eyes widened as he looked at his arms......One thing he didn't know.....Why didn't he know what they were about!? "I...." Kenta turned away looking at the ground then spoke to change the subject, "I sent Rio a butterfly just a while ago....She should be here soon, I said it was urgent Squad six business. Probably wrong to frame my problems as something Squad six official, but it's the only way to get her here alone."

"Just as long as you don't come back before I finally get to rip apart its flesh, then I suppose that's fine with me. But don't worry Angie, you'll be good as new and you can still try your luck with killing me. Good luck and safe trip to you both.." Feyora said, bowing in a respectful manner as he took off. All that was left was the giant winged demon and her. "And I don't communicate with evil outside of the emotions expressed from this blade. Now...die!!!!" She launched of at the Hollow in a thrust like motion before shunpoing above with a downward slash already prepared for it. The demon raised its left arm up to block the slash along with displaying the sturdiness of its skin. Her blade wouldn't penetrate so she shunpoed away right as its tail was about to silently stab her from behind. "Hado #33 Sokatsui!!!!" Feyora yelled, aiming her spare hand at the beast before firing a torrent of blue flames at it.Both of the Hollow's wings wrapped around it in time to shield it from the attack. Once the flames ceased, the demon unwrapped itself only to have lost sight of the woman it was combatting. "Hyahhhh!!!" Her sword made contact with the beast's tail but to no affect. The Hollow quickly spun around with a left wing backhand like smack in which she tried to evade with shunpo but it was too late. The smack sent her flying to the other end of the peak before her balance could be regained. "Iron wings? You lucky bastard, I knew there was some reason why you were able to fight so many and sustain not even a scratch. But that won't stop me from shredding you!!" Feyora decided to keep her distance for the moment. She couldn't afford getting hit like that again. A couple of her bones were fractured from the smack and she tried to play off the pain but the demon wasn't buying it.

The beast took a few steps forward, making her move back in response. "I take it you expected me to cower from such words? Hmph, actions speak louder than words, so don't believe me when I say I'll grind your bones to dust until it actually happens." The demon stated as it prepared another Cero. "Shut it and die!!!!" Feyora launched off at the Hollow but unlike the first time, the cero was released in a shorter period. Luckily, she raised her Zanpakuto in time to shield against the attack, even if doing so made little difference. The blast carried her from off the peak of the mountain before breaking through the gemstone cave. Seconds later, the entire cave was soon devoured by a large red explosion as a result from the discharged Cero.

I can't...move but this bastard has to pay. They're dead so I have to make sure this thing dies as well. She mumbled to herself before forcing herself from out of the rubble. "I let you go on your own for awhile and this is the shit you get into? It's things like this that make him want me to keep watch over you. You seriously need to grow up or else your face will be added to the back of a child's milk carton." A voice said sarcastically, landing right behind right after. Based on the masculinity of the voice, they were obviously male but the individual wore a cloak that hid his appearance. Feyora's face soon reverted to herself as she turned in the man's direction. "It's that time already? Well give me sometime to get rid of this one last task. It's sort of something I must do and he'd surely understand so will you?" She asked, while trying to ignore the excruciating pain that she was in.

Her arc was shattered to pieces which didn't really faze her that much only made her walk closer until she stopped when he heard what he said. "Wait no please!" Aya said but to late as the man pierced through his stomach which made her gasp, but then grab her head in pain. "Fuck...... I can control it..." Aya mumbled as she looked up at her son again only for anger to fill her mind, all she saw before her vision went dark was her son screaming. A dark ball then wrapped around Aya and after a few second two red eyes appeared in the ball only for it to vanish revealing a much different form of Aya, her ultimate demon form. Her Zanpakuto was also gone as well. Leaving her standing there as she looked at the man and pointed her index finger at him, yet instead of a hado steel shot out of her finger tip straight at the man, however halfway towards him it then split into multiple streams of steel that took different paths towards him. All the while Black shadows kept flowing behind her.

The being retained its smile the entire time, when Aya pleaded and began her transformation. But when she did transform, his expression returned back to the emotionless state it was, with a hint of disappointment "Your arrogance knows no bounds, it is rather...how would I put this...disgusting?"]/i] It said as she fired off the multiple streams of metal. A sheepish smile formed across his face as they approached him [i]"Because of that, I will teach you a pain only a mother can feel" The multiple streams of metal pierced his body, but nothing came out of the wounds. Suddenly, multiple holes appeared over Hozumi's body, at the exact same spot which the streams of metal pierced the being. Blood came out of his mouth as he attempted to scream, but blood filled his lungs. Shortly after, his body fell limp. It appeared as if all life had left his body "The pain of watching your very own son die before your very eyes, knowing there was nothing you can do. Once his purpose is served, and his life is drained. You have my permission to die. Until then, know your place and watch" It said as the streams of metal shattered once again and Aya would begin to feel the temperature to significantly drop. It would also feel as if Aya's demon energy was being drained by the being. He moved Hozumi closer towards him with his tail and began to open his mouth, ready to bite at Hozumi's neck

-- Meanwhile --
Hozumi dropped onto an endless white road, with no end in sight. Around him was a sight like no other as he stood up "Woah" Stars and moons surrounded him, each one different from the last with a just as great beauty. "Where am I?" "The gateway from this life, to the next" Hozumi quickly turned, a confused expression forming on his face "What the? A goat? Why the heck would a goat be here?"



The goat chuckled, Hozumi's eyes widening "Did you just chuckle?! I didn't know goats could do that!!" "You can do whatever you want, even a goat like me can become a god" Hozumi laughed "I doubt that, why would anyone pray to a goat?" Silence filled the realm for a moment, but was interrupted as the goat began to hit Hozumi's head with its feet "Don't look down on me just cause I'm like this!!" "Ow ow, yes sir yes sir! I get it!" The goat stopped, clearing its throat and taking a step back "Do you know why you're here Hozumi?" Hozumi looked down, sad as certain memories began to come back to him "Because...I died..." "That is correct, or to be more specific you are on the verge of death. As you know, all mortal beings will one day experience death. When that day comes, I will guide the-" Hozumi interrupted his talk, raising his hand "Could you turn into something different? Its kinda hard to take a pep talk from a goat" Silence filled the room once again, cut off as the goat hit Hozumi on the head again multiple times "Show your elders respect!!" "Yes sir, I'm sorry!" He said, covering his head to avoid getting hit more. The goat stopped, going back to where it was without a hint of movement "I suppose I could change forms, although It'll take a toll on my body" A white plasma like smoke began to seep from its body, blocking all vision. Even Hozumi's eyes couldn't see through this smoke. The smoke which covered its body moved and changed shape, standing upright now. The smoke faded away, revealing its new form



Hozumi smiled and nodded "Strangely enough, yes.. It feels like you're more like me" Hozumi said with a smile. Viole smiled back "It does, doesn't it. Weird huh" Hozumi nodded "Very, its like you know who I am! Wait do you?" Hozumi asked, raising an eyebrow. Viole nodded "I know you, I know you very well Hozumi. I've watched over you your entire life. Wishing there was something I could do when you were in danger but...I was forever bound to this realm" Hozumi scratched his head "So you're my guardian angel?" Viole scratched his head "In a way, yes. But who I am no longer matters Hozumi. Not anymore.All that matters is you, you must live. You must fight and do what I failed to""But I'm dead...how can I fight when I'm dead?" Viole smiled "Simple...I will sacrifice something for your life " Hozumi's eyes widened "Y-you'd do that for me?" Viole nodded with a smile"Of course, I would do anything for you" Hozumi began to catch on "Who are you really? You and I...are really alike. I can see it with my eyes, its like you're..." His eyes widened "Are you my father?!" Viole stood silent, turning to look at the vast ocean of stars "I was hoping you didn't realize" Hozumi smiled, tears of joy forming as he began to walk towards him "My mom never told me much about you, but I knew I'd find you one day!" He began to run towards him but the road began to shatter, a gap forming between him and Viole "Its time for you to go back Hozumi, I'm sure your mother is worried sick""I don't want to go yet! There's so much I have to ask! Who are you! What are we?!" Viole smiled, the gap between the two of them closing as Hozumi and Viole stood face to face. Viole wrapped his arms around Hozumi "I am the proudest father there is, to see you so strong so young" Crystal like tears began to come out of Viole's eyes as the realm's foundations were breaking and shattering. The moons that once stood in the sky began to sink and shatter into the darkness below "Hozumi, I'm sorry I've missed you being born. You growing up. I'm sorry that I will miss seeing you in the future, when you become a powerful warrior that will know no bounds. But do not ever forget, I love you. I will always love you, no matter what Hozumi's grip tightened as he began to cry "Don't go father!!" Viole ruffled his hair, a smile on his face "I won't go, I'll always be in your memories. Its time for you to go Hozumi, there are others waiting for you" Hozumi held on to his Viole's clothes tightly "No! I won't go!" His hands phased through Viole's body as the floor beneath him shattered. Hozumi plummeted downwards, extending his hand out to Viole "I'LL SAVE YOU ONE DAY FATHER!! I PROMISE!!" He yelled as he continued to plummet. Viole smiled, standing in the darkness "You've already saved me. Goodbye, my son"

A being, radiating a light so blinding that it shined throughout the entire dimension "Are you sure about this Lessa? Are you truly willing to give up your immortality for just one insignificant being?" Viole turned to the being, a warm smile on his face "Yes, what is the point of having all this power if we don't put it to any use? My son isn't like me. He has the determination to bring about change" The other being remained silent "So be it. Farewell Lessa" Viole smiled, as everything around them began to shatter and fall "Farewell Rah" Viole said as his body began to fade away.

-- Back to reality --
The black being bit down on Hozumi's neck, but instead of blood a crimson black miasma came spewing out of the wounds. The being coughed, pulling its tail from Hozumi and jumping back. Its face had partially melted from the miasma. Its tail was corroding and breaking "How is this possible?! Gah! Mortal beings can't harm me" Its eyes widened, grinding its teeth and looking Hozumi "Lessa, taking over your son. How detestable" Behind Hozumi was a nearly invisible apparition of Viole "I hate it just as much as you do, but you will not break free of Hell today, return back to the realm which you belong in" Multiple black staves formed out of thin air, piercing the beings body. Chains formed on the edge of each stave, connecting to the massive hole behind it. The being grinned "You've won today Lessa, but this is just the beginning. No matter what, i will break free of Hell. Then I will kill everything you hold dear, and once I've sowed the seeds of destruction, I'll be coming after Rah. I'll kill all of you for sealing me in that Hell hole! THE SKY WILL ROT!!!!!" It yelled, the entire forest shaking from his yell. The trees shattered just from the yell, braches of quartz falling all aroudn themThe chains began to pull its body back towards the hole. It grabbed onto the ground as it was dragged into the hole, the grin never fading "I won't go alone!" Its arms extended outwards, its hand growing and grabbing Hozumi. Viole's eyes widened as it grabbed Hozumi, but he phased through them. "Don't do it!" Viole yelled as his body began to fade away. It grinned "Too late"The being jumped back into the massive hole, pulling Hozumi down with him. The being laughed hysterically as it fell down into the pitch darkness, an unconscious Hozumi falling with him. Lucy woke up, seeing Hozumi being dragged into the whole as the entire forest was being broken apart. Lucy quickly got up on her feet, looking at her surroundings and taking a second to collect herself. "I'm sorry Aya, but I can't let you go down there. Down there is Hell, and if you go. You won't come back. I promise I will bring back Hozumi. I hope I get to see you one day, Sentan Hakuja. Mod 5" A white portal formed above and below Aya, the both of them going closing in on each other and transporting Aya back to the Soul Society. As Aya was being teleported back to the SS, Lucy ran with all her might as the Forest began to come down and cover the giant hole with its many branches. She leaped through a small gap, falling downwards "I'm coming Hozumi, until then. Stay safe!" She yelled, as she plummeted into the unknown darkness.

"Our Hozu is gone...because of my failure to protect him." Minari continued to muffle her teary voice under her sheets as someone began to knock on the door. "Go away!!!!" She yelled which caused the knocking to cease. "I'm sorry Hozu, I should've never let you go with tha-!!!!" "You might want to check who's at the door first before doing that." Rinkei said nonchalantly as he entered the room since there was no longer a door. "What do you want!!!" "Well that's no way to greet your brother but I guess I should get right to it." He walked over and proceeded to take a seat on the edge of her bed. "Now what troubles you my dear?" The Captain's voice lightened up as he asked. "I don't want to talk about it so can you please leave and fix my door?" Minari requested which made Rinkei get up.

"No, you want to talk about it but you just don't want to talk about it with me I see. I get it, I haven't been much of a brother to you these past few years so I'm just not trustworthy anymore..." He said gloomy like while he made his way for the exit. She poked her head outside of the covers shortly before he left. "Did you try to cheer me up on your own accord or did you try because of her?" He stopped and glanced back at her one last time with a small grin. "Neither, I just did it for someone's coffee that tastes better than mine. And about the door, I'll get a few people to work on that for you." Rinkei noted, proceeding to exit afterwards.

[Zane620]

Even though her attacks hit they didn't seem to be doing anything at all that was when she saw her sons body go limp which made her take off in a sprint at the man only for it to get a lot colder and feel as though her energy was being sapped from her which brought her to a halt as she fell to her knees glaring at the man as she attempted to get closer but to no avail. All she could do was watch as the being bite into his neck, however it looked like that hurt him more than Hozumi. It also appeared that Hozumi was standing up again, and she could make out something behind the boy as well. After that Aya just sat there confused as she watched the events transpire, it seemed the only thing Aya retained when transforming into a demon, was her stupidity at everything happening around her. All she knew was the child felt like a part of her so she shouldn't attack that, but everything else felt like free game. So when her son was being sucked down this hole she tried to move forward only for her body to still feel drained, so when this one person told her she couldn't come she grit her teeth as Aya tried to raise her hand to try and skewer the girl, only to find herself somewhere else. However wherever she was she was surrounded by several Gillians. She also felt her power returning so she held out both her hands and out of them came several streams of steels that pierced through their mask and soon they vanished. That was when she saw just how many Hollows had surrounded her, yet they didn't seem like they were charging at her, in fact they looked terrified. This only made her grin as she lifted one hand into the air, what followed was several spikes popping out of the ground and piercing through many of the Hollow that were around her. The ones that didn't get pierced instantly started to run which made her giggle as she began chasing after them.

Fumio Hari Kouineji

"... Fuck, NOTHING!" Fumio continued his fruitless search, asking people around the outside of the Seireitei wall if they had seen anyone which cherry-coloured hair and navy blue/pale red eyes leave the gates.... Unfortunately not a single Shinigami had seen anyone of that description leave the area.... 'What is going on? Where did he go?...' Sliding down a wall near the west exit while raising his left knee to rest his left arm on, Fumio Lightly began banging the back of his head against the stone behind him. 'Think!.. Think!' Fumio couldn't take this much longer, soon enough he'd start tearing the forest apart... but a feeling of being watching washed over him, intriguing him.

"Huh..." The same second that Fumio's eyes accidentally landed on a cloaked figure, said figured darted deeper into the forest at an incredible speed. There wasn't any spiritual pressure generated from this person... they were virtually undetectable by sense. However, Fumio managed to act fast, shunpo'ing from his seat with the target in sight. Compressing his energy as much as he could, Fumio leapt on top of the trees, running along the tree-tops as his eyes held tightly onto the figure trying to escape him. 'You've got something to do with Souta's disappearance... I'm sure of it... I'm not letting you escape...'

After a while of jumping, Fumio dropped down from the tree-tops to follow directly behind the figure, running at a decent speed behind this person... A long period of silence floated between the two and the forest around them. Fumio didn't want to talk, in fact, he had enough of talking... An devious grin stretched across Fumio's lips from ear to ear as he thought of his next move to catch this prey...

Souta Fushimaru Hari

"Who are you? How do you know who I am?" Souta snapped his eyes to a guy who walked out from behind a bunch of bushes, chuckling. "Heh, my, you've gown alot since I last saw you. I can sense it from your growth in spiritual pressure~" The man spoke, ignoring both of Souta's questions while pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose. This made Souta narrow his eyes, slowing unsheathing his Zanpakuto while his gaze stayed on the man. Chuckling a little more, the man looked up. "Now now Souta, calm down~ We wouldn't want to do anything rash now, would we?"[/b] A bunch of cloaked figures stepped out from behind the foliage, surrounding both Souta, the woman and as well as the man himself.

Souta held the hilt of his Zanpakuto firm, gritting his teeth. "Tell me who you are!" He firmly ordered, quickly growing frustrated with the guy's attitude. The man only continued to chuckle. "Quit fucking around! I'm not scared of you or whoever these people are! Tell me now or I'm leaving... And she's coming with me." Souta raised his voice a little, speaking with a serious tone when the guy didn't answer him, anger evident in his voice. The chuckling man then grew quiet before looking at Souta with his piecing blue eyes. "Well since you're so eager, I'll show you how I know you! Turn around!!" The man looked at the woman before barking the order.

The woman winced a little before her head dropped as she looked at the ground. Souta's eyes returned to the woman, watching in anticipation. 'It can't possibly be who I think it is...' A bead of sweat dripped down the left side of Souta's face. The woman then slowly began to turn around... The more and more of the woman Souta saw, the wider his eyes became.

"I-Impossible...."



Souta began shaking again, his eyes were stitched on the woman in front of him... "I-It is you.... K-Konome.... H-how?... I.." Tears began to surface in Souta's eyes, falling down his cheeks as he looked at Konome. "I... I killed you... " He tried to step forward but couldn't.... he was paralysed by what he was witnessing.

The woman called Konome just kept her eyes planted sadly to the floor, hugging her right arm with her left hand closer to her body.



"Heh, her name is Ōhi Sango now, and she's my greatest and most successful experiment" The man chuckled further, this time more darkly.

The man's voice stole Souta's attention, anger instantly took over him as fire flamed his gaze and his teeth grit harshly. "WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE TO MY SISTER?!" He yelled, gripping his Zanpakuto hilt with both hands, aiming the tip of his blade at the guy.

"I only finished the job you couldn't... Heh, you killed her remember? But you left her body out in the open to rot. At least I put it to good use~ Hmhmhm"

Souta's eyes widened dramatically as the man spoke, his anger raising as his blood boiled with pure rage. "You're... dead... DIE!!!" Suddenly launching from his spot, Souta swung his sword to the left-"STOP!" Sango's voice finally left her lips, followed by a whimper... Instantly Souta stopped, his sword held in the air and his eyes wide before they rigidly drifted to Konome who eyes were currently squeezed shut as she bit her lip. "... Konome... "

"AHAHAHAH! You won't attack me Souta, not with this bitch as my meat shield!" The man grabbed a fistful of Sango's hair and dragged her in front of him to shield himself. Sango only lifted both of her arms up, grabbing the man's hand while whimpering in pain but wouldn't do anything to stop him. Souta found this extremely weird, causing both of his eyebrows to raise.... "Konome... What happened to you?... Why are you letting him do this to you?...." Sango slowly opened her teary eyes to look at Souta but didn't say a word.... She didn't know who he was which was evident by her face since it didn't show any emotion towards him... She only showed pain from her hair being pulled. "What... What did he do to you Konome?" "GET HIM!" Souta's eyes flicked up to the guy holding his sister by her hair as the people surrounding them jumped into the air and headed directly for Souta.

"AHAHHAHAHAHAHAH!!" The guy laughed as the surrounding forest began to warp, the colour of the forest growing darker while the trees turned black. The sky turned a gradient of deep pinky/purple to a coral colour while the Sun had become smothered in darkness, become a large black orb in the sky. A pillar of rock raised out of the ground from underneath the guy and Sango, holding them in the air while moving the both of them backwards, enough to watch Souta. The two stood on the pillar as the guy continued to laugh manically, still holding Sango by her hair. "AHAHAHA! LET'S SEE HOW FAR YOU'LL GET BEFORE YOU DIE! JUST COME AND GET US!" The guy's laughter simmered down to a sinister grin as he kept his eyes on Souta. "You'll be mine soon"

[Zane620]

Aya continued to hunt down the Hollows until she had eventually killed all of them and sat down grinning at all the broken trees she caused. She continued to hum to herself among all the destruction until she felt many spiritual pressures in the distance which made her grin as she sat up and walked towards the pressure killing all the hollows as she made her way towards the feeling, ever now and then a group of Hollows would try and attack her but their attacks seemed to do jack shit as she just ran through them all laughing as she did.

[AbigailTenshi]

Ōhi Sango

Sango sat up on a beanbag in Henry's room. The first time she sat the beanbag, Sango begged Henry to get it and, obviously, he did. Ever since then Sango would spend most that she was away from Henry curled up in a ball, napping on the beanbag chair. "Hmm... I wonder when Henry will come back? He works so much... I would go with him but... unn..." She shook her head before stepping off of the chair, walking to a window. Outside the window was a butterfly, one that looked similar to a hell butterfly but something made this one unique to the others... It had a big pale red spot on the inside of it's let navy blue wing. This made Sango smile and giggle a little as she watched the butterfly bump against the window as if it was trying to get in. "Cuute!" Sango grinned, opening the window to left the butterfly in. The butterfly flew inside and landed on Sango's shoulder. "Heheheh! That tickles!" She continued to smile and giggled as she watched the butterfly settle. "Hello... um... What are you?" She raised an eyebrow, thinking aloud as usual. "I'll just say you're little blue! Orrrr Red dot!" Happy that she came up with a name, Sango grinned, wiggling her finger at the butterfly on her shoulder playfully.

Getting report of the two Shinigami attacking in the 7th North Rukongai District, Hikari pushed off the wall and looked at Kenta, "Sorry man....But I gotta." Kenta nodded, understanding the situation, "Go ahead, I'd do the same.....We'll continue this later." Hikari nodded and left the Squad Six barracks and soon headed out of the Seireitei and into the 7th North Rukongai District. He ended up there pretty fast, and wasn't sure if he'd have back up, but he figured he could probably take these two on if he had to do it alone.

Training with Tabo and father, Kai, Naito....It won't let me fail this, Hikari thought as he began walking, sensing the two higher energy....It was them, but they were in the opposite direction. He sensed another Shinigami heading towards him and figured that was someone to help him. He felt the one to his left to be closer to him than the one on the right and decided to head off there hoping to be fast enough to stop them before they did anything worse. Once he reached the area he saw the man in which Hikari glared and unsheathed his sword, "Now, I think we both know how this might go....I'll ask you to surrender, you won't, we fight, I either lock you up or kill you. Now let's skip all the extra shit and just get to the part where I kill you, or where I arrest you, I really have no time to waste with you." Hikari had noticed how harsh his words had gotten compared to what he'd say, but he had people to get back to. Kenta, Kasumi, Gai.....He blew off what Kenta needed help with for this and didn't have time to drag this out, that was fact. Hikari threw his blade over his shoulder waiting on the response, though he doubted this guy would give up, the bad guys never did.

Kurisa said
"Hmph! I don't care how good I did...I wanted to win! I wanted to win the piggy back bet!" Shou continued to keep his arms crossed as he looked away, he was being childish and stubborn sure but he was still a child. He'd eventually lighten up sure...but right now? no way...he did kinda need to test Rio also. He needed to know she could deal with how he acted, this was as important as anything due to him being a child an all...if she couldn't handle his childish ways then she likely wouldn't be able to deal with him at all...after all he was quite a lot to handle

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

Rio's eyes narrowed at Shou as he mentioned the reason why he was mad. "Oh so that's why.... How about this. No piggy-back... But I'll buy you ice-cream for doing well?" She chose to try and reason with him this time, but this wouldn't happen often so he shouldn't get used to it. Rio just wanted Shou to cheer up. Keeping her arms crossed, Rio continued to watch Shou. " How does that sound Shou?" A certain task suddenly popped up in her head... she had quite a bit of paperwork to finish. "Shou, let's walk and talk, I have work back at Squad 6 that I need to give in before the end of today." Turning towards the Seireitei, Rio began walking, expecting Shou to follow.

[Zane620]

After Yu dropped off this one man to his room Yu received a report about what was going on in the 7th North Rukongai District. Yu nodded and took off pretty quickly and made it there withing a matter of a few seconds, he could feel one Spiritual Pressure that felt familiar and two who didn't. He felt that the familiar one was taking on the one to the left, so Yu left it to that person and went towards the right where the one pressure was seemingly alone. Yu appeared in front of the man but kept his swords sheathed as he looked at him. "Two choices. You surrender peacefully or you resist and make things much worse for yourself sir. So what do you choose? I would recommended the first option." Yu said getting into a battle stance as he kept his eyes on the man just in case they did something hostile, of course he had to, this person was reported to have been killing people.

Rinkei, Kareta, Lew, (Pt. 2 Only)Sayorin, Teshin, Mikail, Aventus & ????

- Squad Eight Barracks, Captain's Office -

"Kareta...I've decided to take up his offer so I won't be back until later on tonight. You think you'll be able to maintain the illusion that I'm still here until I return?" Rinkei asked as she turned to him with a concerned look. "Last time you two fought seriously, you almost died. Do you honestly expect me....me of all people to just let you go ahead and kill yourself? Your lieutenant can handle things if something comes up or else he wouldn't be worthy of the position." She noted while rising out the bed. "That was back when were both inexperienced brats but there is still the possibility.And well you have a point...we leave in a few so I suggest getting ready." He said, walking over to the bathroom afterwards.

- On The Prowl -

Once they were finally ready to set out on their trip, they silently shunpoed out of the barracks with great haste. "We head for the Syazoh temple in the east, so try not to fall behind....Kareta." He noted as they both made it out of the Seireitei. This battle wasn't going to be a pushover, even for someone of his level. "Tasa, isn't that the same temple we used...back then?" She curiously asked. Rinkei knew what would be the next question on her list so he decided to answer that instead. "The portal's already open, we won't have to gather any materials this time around. And we're here...." He said before landing down in a plain full of grass.

- Syazoh Temple -

"We're...here? I don't see anything!! Are you sure this is the right place?" He turned to Kareta with a nonchalant look before turning back. "The ground is made entirely out of quick sand and getting sucked in will lead us to it. Keep relaxed and hold your breath for as long as possible or else you'll die." Rinkei as his body was slowly ingested by the sand. She couldn't keep her patience. this felt like suicide but struggling was pointless at this stage. "I...can't...no I won't do it!!!! What if we die here!!!? I don't expect you to understand but you have people that need you!!!" "Hehe, then I guess we're both screwed but relax. We'll prevail as long as you play it saf...." His body was completely swallowed up by the grains of sand, leaving Kareta all by herself.

- Syazoh Temple Pt.2 -

"If this is where you want to go then I'll go too Tasa. Only because there is no place I wouldn't follow you...my love..." She whispered calmly, embracing the end in hope that she would meet him in the world beyond the clouds. The sand soon clouded her vision as her consciousness slowly began to fade. After a few hours later, Rinkei opened his eyes before turning to Kareta. "Awww shit!!!" The Captain's raised as he rushed over to her. Upon reaching her, he quickly clamped on both sides of her nose while proceeded to give her mouth to mouth. Mouth to mouth didn't seem to be working so he backed away from her lips and placed both hands on her chest. "What...are...you...doing?" She said lazy-like which caused him to stop in time. "I thought I was saving your life but it looks like you're good." Rinkei rose to his feet before attempting to get acquainted with his surroundings.

- Onward to Kiestrelle -



The place was covered in moss but other than that, everything looked swell. "So you've finally come, just like we anticipated. And you've brought another...very well. My name is Lew and I'll guide you on your way. A blonde male with weird cat like ears greeted, walking down the steps casually as his words echoed throughout the temple.



Rinkei looked at the man once before turning away. "Master...if you came all this way, then that must mean...." He placed his sheathed Zanpakuto on the ground in front of him before bowing respectfully. "I very much hope you reconsider your decision because this is a order I cannot follow." He insisted nonchalantly while Kareta stared on a bit surprised. "Master? My my, I thought he was supposed to be a giant lion with vicious teeth." "You both are absolutely amusing and yes I was once a giant lion. That was ages ago but unlike you beings, my strength increases with time." Lew noted, taking a seat down in front of the steps before scratching his hair.

- Onward to Kiestrelle Pt.2 -

"As with my other apprentice, you must defeat me in order to proceed past this point. I hope you remember how because you won't last long using just raw power." Lew's eyes tilted in the girl's direction. "If you don't mind getting hurt then you may include yourself in the fray." He kept seated as Rinkei unsheathed both Zanpakuto and shunpoed in front of him. The Captain quickly iniated the battle with a downwards slash before Lew disappeared instantly. He quickly reappeared from behind and performed a powerful jab that destroyed a small portion of Rinkei's side. The Captain stab one of his blades in the ground before retaliating with a reverse spin kick; this forced Lew to duck before exerting a huge amount of Reiatsu that pushed everything away with serious force.

- Onward to Kiestrelle Pt.3 -

Upon being blown upward, Rinkei collided with the ceiling and pushed off it right as Lew attempted to unleash a follow up. "Keisan Splash..." A white ball left from his master's mouth before fusing with the wall upon contact. The Captain shot off in the man's direction while whispering "Perecer" as his weapon's took transformed almost immediately. Lew began ripping out huge chunks of rocks before hurling them at Rinkei which he easily split apart. He tossed one last rock and shunpoed above The Captain with a downwards kick at the exact moment he cut the rock in two. Right after crashing into the ground, yours truly summoned up five shadow dogs to fight by his side. "How dare you!!! You dare side with those fiends after all I taught you?" Lew Shunpoed back in front of the steps as he dropped down on all fours cat like. "I will unveil part of my true power. ....Shattered vaccum wave!!!" The cat man then exhaled a large devasting spiral vortex at Rinkei shortly afterwards.

Aya continued to hunt down the Hollows until she had eventually killed all of them and sat down grinning at all the broken trees she caused. She continued to hum to herself among all the destruction until she felt many spiritual pressures in the distance which made her grin as she sat up and walked towards the pressure killing all the hollows as she made her way towards the feeling, ever now and then a group of Hollows would try and attack her but their attacks seemed to do jack shit as she just ran through them all laughing as she did.

After graduating the academy Kenji had taken the time out of his day to go back to the Soul Society districts to visit an orphanage he was practically raised in. Of course, he didn't live there anymore but he liked donating there and played with the children that lived there. Also protected it when the time came. He had spent two hours playing with the children after graduating the academy but spent no longer as he felt an energy getting closer and closer, he stood up and put balls down that he was juggling for the children, "I'll be back." he told them, and that was all they needed to know.

He walked outside and headed outside the Soul Society heading towards a forest, it wasn't long before he came upon a demon looking chick in which he stood in front of her holding up her hand, "You stop right there miss," Kenji said as he began raising his toxic spirit energy, if she was human then she'd probably began feeling the urge to vomit from it, but he wasn't sure how it effected a demon....Or whatever it was, "Unless you really have a cock then my mistake.....But I'm afraid I need to ask you what you're doing so close to my home, you don't like look someone who lives here." Kenji then reached to his back and put his hand on the hilt of his Zanpakuto, "So I hope you're not trying to cause trouble."

[Zane620]

Aya continued to draw closer towards the spiritual pressures when suddenly a man appeared in front of her, she tilted her head when he began raising this weird spiritual energy of his, it was a weird feeling to her, much like a sneeze that just wouldn't come out or go away. So when he began making his comments she scratched her head and looked down at her crotch, of course this was followed by her with a questioning look until he placed his hand on his zanpakuto's hilt which made her grin. What followed her grin was a giggle as she rushed forward at him with her hand doing a swipe at him with her right hand, he would also notice that there was long steel pieces extending out of her fingers.

[Expllo]

Kenji sighed seeing her rush at him, "I was hoping you'd say no honestly," Kenji said. As she swiped at him, he raised an eyebrow seeing the long steel pieces coming out of her fingers. "Well that's different," he said quickly before he shunpo'ed behind her, "You're quick, but you should be quicker," Kenji now had a bow in his hand and an arrow extended, "Bitch." He then released the arrow he had extended, if it hit then it would have exploded all over her. He was just testing though, she seemed strong enough to take one explosion and wanted to test her durability with that one just so he wouldn't have to waste his time and energy. I'll go Ares if it gets to be too much, Kenji thought.

[Zane620]

Suddenly the man vanished which made her look around until she heard the word bitch followed by something hitting her back which caused an explosion sending dust up around her, yet she simply walked out of it rubbing her back a bit as she grinned at the man. "You fun, I enjoy killing you." She said her speech in this mode however unlike her her battle abilities went down instead of up. " She then started hacking, and eventually spit out a Metal ball, which she then tossed at the man with great force.

[Expllo]

After the arrow exploded it seemed as if it didn't do much, which Kenji expected. But how'd she fair against six with and being directly in the middle of an explosion with a thirty foot explosive radius? It'd probably just bruise her, but it'd be better than trying to shoot them at her one by one. "You fun, I enjoy killing you," the demon spoke. Kenji spat at next to her foot, "Talk shit when you actually do shit bitch," Kenji said then raised an eyebrow when she started hacking, "Hm? Miss it looks like you're not having the greatest ti...." he raised an eyebrow when she spat up a metal ball, "Wait what the fu-ACK!" His words were cut off once she tossed the metal ball, lost in his confusion he left himself open as it hit his forehead sending him flying back from the force.

As he flew back he tilted himself more letting gravity become his friend as he began falling down towards the ground. As he got close enough he held his arms out and let them hit the ground. Falling the rest of the way he had gotten on all fours but quickly pushed off them dashing towards the demon chick still holding his bow in hand, as he pushed forward he drew the last six of his arrows and pulled back soon firing the rest of them at her. The blood pouring from his head down to his left eye lowered his accuracy but he wasn't worried, the shot mostly banked on the explosion and not the arrows itself although if the arrows had hit her then that would have been better, so accuracy didn't really matter in this case. Though the closer he got the more risk he put into being caught in his own explosion, though it wouldn't have been the first time.

[Zane620]

Aya smirked when she sent him flying from the attack, she even showboated a bit by lifting herself up with her tail and laughing so when he got closer again he shot six arrows this time but it seemed a little off, so Aya went back to her feet and walked in the way of the arrows instead of dodging them and let all six hit her which in turn sent her flying right through a tree and a good bit away. She skidded along the ground and jumped back up with blood dripping down her face on onto her body. "Ouch you very fun, I enjoy greatly!" Aya shouted as she put her hands into the ground and ran back at the man hands ripping through the ground and once within range she ripped her hands outwards towards him sending metals spikes to come piercing out of the ground towards him.

[Expllo]

Kenji stopped dashing after he saw his attack hit and jumped back away from the debris that came after it. He wiped his left eye and flicked his hair a bit to get the blood off his eye, of course he knew more would drip down but it's best to get it off when possible. He had a clear view now, a clear view of the demon stepping back into view with blood dripping from her face onto her body. "Ouch you very fun, I enjoy greatly!" he heard her say in which Kenji replied, "I'd enjoy it more if you were an actual female, sadly sex drive and procreation doesn't work that way." Atleast I don't think.

Once the demon began running at him he began running at her with narrowed eyes, once they were in range of each other she ripped her hands outwards towards him causing metal spikes to shoot from the ground to try to pierce him. Kenji smirked and did a front flip managing to flip past the spikes, as he began landing it looked as he was going to land in a free spot in front of her. "Hermes," he smirked before he made it halfway towards the ground. Kenji within a second or two was crouched in front of the demon as if he fell at a super sonic speed and landed, but what happened was he teleported down there, for him it looked like an open door. The open side showing where he was aiming to be, but to other people they didn't see anything but a transported Kenji. Wasting no time Kanji quickly shot upwards delivering a hard uppercut to the demon's jaw.

[Zane620]

Aya again looked down at her body not paying attention to the man when he made his comment and poked her breast. She shrugged as she looked up only to be meet with uppercut which sent her stumbling back a bit as she lowered her head and laughed as she held out her hand but then puled it back in, causing the steel spikes behind him to branch out towards him again. "Me female, no cock. Just breast." Aya said as she started to balance on her tail again and then started bouncing on her tail as she stuck her tongue out at him. "What you though? You bitch?"
