"Transfer":The god waited patiently for the first of the captives to arrive. The room was still and quiet. The bright white lighting was blinding by comparison to darkness beyond the walls of the Rokkakkei. A small red light lit up on the ceiling, as a small hatch opened and stairs descended. The first of the participants had arrived.
"Welcome, Kenji Urahara, to Rokkakkei." As the boy stepped from the last of the stairs, a beam of light wrapped around him, immobilizing him and bringing him to one knee. The boy grunted as he tried to pull himself up to no avail. "You will injure yourself. The light you are in, makes your body feel nearly one hundred times its original weight. You will not move."
The god walked over to the boy, a new collar and cuffs in hand. He released the boy from his original collar, quickly latching on the new collar. Lifting the boy, keeping him in the beam of light, the god placed the cuffs around the boys wrists.
As the god dropped the boy to the ground the beam of light disappeared. "You are the first to arrive. Please, make yourself at home, as this is your new home."

Kenji rose to stumbled backward, falling to the stairs behind him. "What...What is this place?" questioned Kenji. "This...This is what shook Las Noches the other day. There's four of these things, right?" Kenji looked to the god, who shook his head.
"You are beneath all four pillars." answered the god. "The Housing Facility spans the entire base of all four pillars."
Kenji sighed, leaning his head back and looking up the stairs. He then looked around, as he rose from the stairs. "This isn't set up like the maze. This is cold. Flat. Bright." Kenji turned looking up the hatch again.

The god remained silent as he looked to the young Shinigami. Several moments passed before the boy turned and darted up the stairs. The boy disappeared into the dark of the pillars above him. Suddenly, the boy's screams could be heard.
The god shook his head as he folded his hands behind him and walked into the next room of the Housing Facility.Moved

"Transfer": (Continued) As the god walked back into the common area, as the next of the captives arrived. The slender, pale skinned, golden haired woman stepped lightly down the stair. She brought her fingers to her lips in timid fashion, as she stopped on the last of the stairs.
"Please, Yuzu Kurosaki, step down." The god bowed slightly. As the young woman stepped down, she was surrounded by a beam of light. As she was forced to her knees, the god placed a collar on her slender neck and latched the cuffs onto her wrists.
"Welcome to the Rokkakkei."

Yuzu sighed as she recalled the memories lost to her. Her friends, now dead, her family, and her brave sunset-haired knight. Hard pressed to keep the tears back, she took another breath, focusing on the brief memory of Ichigo stepping away from her side to consult with someone and a needle being pressed to her neck. That’s when she had blacked out.
And awakened as Yumiko’s and Aizen’s servant.
She ran a hand through her hair, fingering a lock between her fingers. It had grown longer in the six months. Six months of distant …. peace. It was strange, but then again, not so strange at all. She brushed off her dress’ skirt from falling to her knee and looked to the God and her surroundings.
It would be unwise not to respond to him. “I would say thank you, but I don’t think it matters in a place as unfeeling as this,” she whispered.

"Were you expecting the same luxury as the Courtyard?" asked the god. "Or, were you expecting the comfort of your Master's chambers? Master Tervaden has voided whatever comforts you all had in the Labyrinth."
Once the beam of light had disappeared, the god directed the young Quincy to go deeper into the Housing Facility. "He did see fit to give you other comforts. You have a training facility, a medical facility, a bath house." As the timid young woman walked away, her sister appeared at the top of the stairs.
The other Kurosaki thumped down the stairs, her arms crossed over her chest. "Karin Kurosaki." As he had done with the woman and man before, the other Kurosaki was outfitted with a new collar and cuffs. Dismissing the young woman, the god continued to collar and cuff all of those who were captives of the Rokkakkei.
Turning to the group of captives, the god gave a quick nod. "Welcome to the Rokkakkei. Master Tervaden has granted you all a couple of days before the selection process begins. Before the selection process begins, Master Tervaden will come to explain your new accommodations. Any questions?

Naomi's head lowered, "Why are we being moved from the Maze? I thought it was part of the agreement between Aizen and Kita?" She looked up at the God of Fire. "Did Aizen go against the agreement they made?" Her hands clenched as her anger grew. "Why does he have to be so cruel? WHY?!"
"Whatever agreement Sousuke Aizen had with the vessel was voided when the Quincy attacked. She saw fit to deactivate your collars and arm you. After that, Sousuke Aizen needed to create a structure that can withstand anything.
"A God created the world. A God created the humans. A God created the Soul Reapers and they created the Hollows. They are destructible. Your Pillars will fall in time, Alister, God of Fire." The female captain of division three announced.
"We will find away out of this! Kita won't allow this treatment of us!" The captain of the eighth division bellowed out.
Izuru's hands clenched as he yelled at the God. "Does Kita even know what he has done?! There is no way in Hell she would allow this!" His head shook madly. "No way in Hell!!"

"She is aware." said the god, crossing his arms over his chest. "And, she has allowed all but her son to be here. She has had very little to say about this. And, what is there for her to say? You believe she is your savior?"
The god of fire chuckled. "What can she do?"

A still bruised Ryo stepped lightly toward the god. "What can she do? She wears the same confines we do." Ryo looked to the floor, her eyes filling with tears. "Tervaden and Aizen have made sure that we understand that what the vessel has done for us, can be taken away. She can make as many requests as she cares to. But, at the end of the day, she still holds as much power as the rest of us."

Nanao pushed through the throng, one wrist tugging Suzume’s form behind her. She passed Suzume off to Kotetsu and pulled off her haori, draping it over Ryo and holding the other woman close. “It doesn’t matter how much or how little power we hold within our hands. It’s in our abilities not to give up and lie down to have our throats slit.”
“Does it really matter?” one of the rank and file men called out. “He’s going to kill us eventually. This is never going to end.”
Nanao’s arms tightened around Ryo, easily holding the struggling woman against her breast as her deep eyes stared into the speaker’s. “We are the Gotei. If we give up, humanity and the realms are finished." Her eyes softened. "And any dreams will be forgotten."

“The bastard HAS fallen before!” Ichigo hollered, arm on each of his sisters as they embraced. “He and his new Lackey will fall again.”
“He’s fucking immortal!”
“This is the end. No one’s going to save us. We’re just lab rats and I am sick of it!”
Ichigo growled but before he could consider leaving his sisters’ sides, Renji slammed a fist into the face of the second speaker and Ikkaku swung both of the speakers' heads together.
“He’s the biggest DICK we know,” Renji snapped, “but we thought the Quincy What’s-His-Face was almighty. But he fell. I was there!” He pointed back at the God. “NOTHING is absolute. Even this God, even Fish Eyes Tervaden, AND even, fucking PISSY SMILEY FACED Aizen!”
Ichigo chuckled. It looked like getting Rukia back at his side had put new vigor into the man, even if he had seen her crying for hours in his arms. His eyes narrowed.
“If you go ahead and seek death now, than you’ve wasted the precious time you’ve worked on staying alive thus far. Don’t give ANY of them the satisfaction. Kisuke Urahara WILL Find the the solution and let us end this WHOLE retarded mess!”

Vacanze pushed through the group as he stood next to Ichigo. His hand clasp down on his shoulder as he looked to his old friends and comrades. "Believe it or not we have more people on our side right here in Las Noches then you think." He looked to Ichigo and then Renji.
"Its just a matter of the right time for them to make a move, and we will all be free." He looked to the God. "And don't count that crazy Shopkeeper out. When he moves you all will know it. Because he is not going to be quiet about it when it starts to come down."

The riot distracted Karin from her sister's snuggle. Freeing an arm out from her sister’s form, Karin tossed a lock of hair over her shoulder and grinned over her sister’s head. “Do you really want to keel over now and miss that kind of bang?” She paused noticing a new bruise on her exposed hip and shrugged. “I mean really? Don’t you want the last laugh over sake?”
As some seemed to calm at the new speeches, Yuzu felt her own heart lifting just a bit. Not willing to let go of her twin, and still feeling weak after losing her family for ANY period of time, she reached up and grabbed a handful of Vacanze’s jacket. Somehow, she didn't think her world would be steady long. Even with her siblings' bravado.
Vacanze wrapped his arms around Yuzu kissing the top of her head as he held her close to him. "I am sorry I was gone for so long. I did not want to be taken away from you." His arms tightened around her more.
Yuzu’s wiped her tears on the corner of her sleeves and lifted her head up. “You came back. That’s what matters.” She lowered her head. “I’m sorry…. I forgot you.”
"Not your fault, Yuzu." He kissed the top of her head again.
Karin smiled with her brother as Yuzu turned to be enfolded in her boyfriend's arms. It was good to have each other in this mess.

The god lifted a bow, a smirk forming on his lips. He raised a hand and snapped his fingers. A beam of light appeared beneath everyone in the room, taking the same effect as the beam at the bottom of the stairs. All were forced to their knees, groaning and cursing about the strain on their bodies.
"I could do without the impromptu speeches. Rally among yourselves some other time. As I have said before, all of you have two days to settle as well as you can. After that, the first selection of participants will take place."
As the god began to fade from the room, he raised a hand pointing to the holding cells. "If any of you are curious as to what happens when you try to escape, ask the Urahara child."
The god faded from the room and the beam of light disappeared.
