Byakuya remained silent as the espada’s blade pushed against his own, pressing him against the wall. Ulquiorra’s eyes were narrowed in anger or irritation. “Strike,” he whispered. The espada disappeared just a halo of sakura blossoms circled around himself in place of his blade before fading again.
Ulquiorra stayed still for a moment longer before lunging. A pillar of kido rushed into his form. “Soukatsui,” the noble stated, waiting for his next move.
Something flickered out of the corner of his eyes. He ducked just as a cero blew open another wall of the tunnel and then arched his blade upwards, parrying and then crossing with Ulquiorra's sword yet again as his side healed quickly.
“Why aren’t you using your zanpakuto to its full extent of power?" the espada questioned. Deep eyes narrowed further in thought. “Or maybe you can’t," he murmured, a hint of a challenge in his voice.
“I don’t need Senbonzakura to defeat the espada who died at the hands of a raging teenager," Captain Kuchiki responded simply.

Mouth thinning, Ulquiorra arched his blade backwards out of the lock and swung it upwards from his side, only to be blocked by the sword of his opponent again. Eyes narrowed at the impunity of this resistance, he sonido’ed into the darkness and charged again. Blood spurted, but eyes narrowing, the captain blocked the blade before it finished the deep blow to his shoulder,
Ulquiorra smirked. “It is only a matter of time before your ruse is revealed.” He pushed the noble back, thrust his blade forward and powered a cero.

As the cero expanded in the small room, Shinji reappeared in his masked form and fired his own cero blast from a clenched fist. Ulquiorra vanished to escape. Shinji smirked as the two blasts cancelled each other out. “You really should learn to count, espada. There's still two here.” He tilted his blade downwards.”Collapse, Sakanade.”
The world inverted around the espada, flipping the Visored upside down, along with the noble captain behind him. “Now, watch very carefully ….”
“….. sa ruoy dnim sbmuccus ot eht dne.”*
Shinji chuckled as Fourth blinked in confusion. "Being part hollow is quite handy, you know. You heal quicker without using your reiatsu. That gave me time for this, something which you or anyone else who stumbles in my territory can't process quickly."
**as your mind succumbs to the end

Back on the Dunes..
“You know,” a voice called out from another angle in the dunes, “I would say you’re cheating,” the captain commander in black and white murmured, “but they again, your espada does shape shift. He doesn’t need any special items to work his magic.” Shunsui held up his own syringe. “I wonder how many imposters we’ve created.”
His eyes narrowed. “It’s time to pay your debts, Sousuke. You will never control the Realms.”
With the arm behind his back, he finished outlining orders to the stealth force and a rain of syringes shot towards both Aizens. A Danku wall rose up, but the one-sided wall couldn’t protect them from all. Both sets of Aizens started to writhe as some of the countless syringes found their marks.
Shunsui stepped back and Komamura rose from his hiding place in the sand.

Loki grabbed his Master and they both disappeared from sight. The Soul Reapers just stood there in shock wondering where they had vanished to.
Second later Loki appeared back on the dune next to the commander. "I think the word cheater works better on you, Commander."
His swords came up and around ready to remove the Commanders head.

"Kokujō Tengen Myō'ō!" shouted Sajin. He grabbed the hilt of his blade with both hands, and swung downwards. Tenken followed his movements, forcing a wave of sand towards the Espada and the Captain Commander pushing them apart. "Not today, Espada!" Tenken swung again, driving the Espada further away.
Sajin looked to the Captain Commander. "Are you alright, Captain?" The Captain Commander nodded. Tenken's blade came down again, barely missing Loki who sonido'd away at the last second. Sajin growled, bearing his sharp fangs. "You will die here, Espada. You will die here."

Post by Eisaku Koga on Feb 12, 2015 22:27:33 GMT -6
Koga appeared near the former Fifth Tower, grabbing Karin Kurosaki and threw her into a closing garganta before sonidoing into the same garganta as it closed. When the garganta reopened, Koga stepped out and threw the Kurosaki child into the path of Captain Komamura's falling blade. He waved his hand and sonido'd into an opening garganta. He watched as the Captain's blade fell, cutting into the child.
Sajin howled out as Karin fell to the ground in a pool of her blood. "I am going to rip you to pieces!" he growled.
Koga grinned. "You will have to find me first, Captain. And, you never will." his voice faded as the garganta closed.

Loki stood back and grinned as he watched the girl fall her own blood pooling under her. The over sized and over hairy guy falling to his knees covering his face as his head tipped back howling out in pain.
This was his chance. It was time to move forward with his Lord and Masters plans. He vanished from sight as the soul reapers now gathered around the young girl and the howling soul reaper.

Post by Ichigo Kurosaki on Feb 12, 2015 23:11:42 GMT -6
"KARIN!" Ichigo screamed out for the second time that fight. His mask broke and he rushed to his sister's side. For a moment, he stood gasping at his sister's nearly unconscious form and then he whirled around. In another instant, his reiatsu peaked into a maelstrom. He disappeared and reappeared right in front of Szayel in his full hollow form. Snarling, he ripped down the espada's chest with his first sword.
"Yo!," came the holllow's voice, "apparently you're the first to die."

Koga appeared near the former Fifth Tower again. This time, grabbing the former Seventh Espada and threw him into a closing garganta before sonidoing into the same garganta as it closed. When the garganta opened, Koga stepped out and threw the Former at the raging Kurosaki, knocking him over. He waved his hand and sonido'd into the garganta, letting it quickly close behind him.

As Koga flung Vacanze at him, Ichigo threw his blade and Szayel, lifted from his feet, was flung across the sands. Before Szayel hit the ground three of his fraccion appeared catching him and disappeared with him.
Ichigo's fury broke into the commander's own shock. He cursed beneath his breath and then rose as Kairo appeared at his side, pale but determined. "I can heal her." He morphed the white ribbon into warm energy around his hands and pressed them to the hideous wound.
The commander shook his head. "Get her out of here and keep your hands on her. Take her to Urahara's shop." Kairo nodded, gathering the girl into his arms, and disappeared.
As Ichigo ripped into the espada, his energy whipping around him like firebrand, Shunsui's eyes narrowed. This wasn't over.
"SOUSUKE!" the captain commander shouted. "I will still make you pay for all you have done." That was the signal.
Four figures appeared on each horizon, Rukia, Yoruichi, Tsukiro, and Byakuya, standing up from a crouch and shedding their own concealments. Just then, three figures of espada were visible.
“Now, Nanao-chan,” the commander whispered.

Post by Lt. Nanao Ise on Feb 12, 2015 23:44:06 GMT -6
Even before the words had left his lips, a shimmering dome rose up, encompassing the whole area, rippling, cube-like shapes in the network of the reiatsu barrier. A wall between the captains and the enemy. From her own barrier on the opposite side, Nanao pursed her lips, eyes on the rapidly closing gap, where Captain Kuchiki stood.

Loki appeared next to Nanao grinning like a Cheshire cat. He punched the barrier around her as it reverberated causing a loud echo inside and out of the containment dome she hid in. At that he started hacking away at it with his blades causing it to spark, creek, and crackle under his force. He never struck it in the same place.
"Everything has a weakness. Your powers are no different, Beautiful."
Nanao looked at him with narrowed eyes as he licked his lips still hacking away at her barrier.

Post by Captain Nori Mutsu on Feb 13, 2015 0:22:42 GMT -6
Nori looked around at the other captains readying herself as her eyes fell on the captain across from her, Byakuya. The contain dome was just about closed behind him as her sword was drawn and she was drawing energy to form her Bankai. The distance between her and the other captain's made this for a great opportunity for one like Aizen to throw a wrench in their idea.
The question on mind though, was Aizen fool enough to try?
Her eyes locked on Byakuya and slowly narrowed as a sly smirk crossed her lips her thoughts coursing through her mind, "Kuchiki will be the first to attack." Her eyes shifted to Toshiro. "Followed by Hitsugaya. I am sure the new Captain," her eyes shifted to Ryo. "Will be as shocked as the other."

Toshiro’s shoulders stiffened. Maybe it was because his bold reiatsu made it easier to sense others or maybe it was all the decades of hate-filled eyes from Rukon, but he usually sensed enemies quickly. Still gathering his energy to release in Bankai at the second signal, he closed his eyes and searched the length of the giant net cast by Lieutenant Nanao.
The murderous intent was coming from … Captain Mutsu?
His eyes opened. Something was wrong. His hands tightened around his blade.
Last time he had sensed this, it had led him to….
Toshiro vanished, and his sword clashed with Captain Mutsu. “Aizen,” he growled, eyes narrowed.
...... Hinamori covered in blood.
