"Captain Commander Shunsui Kyoraku!" Vale shouted excitedly. He kicked at the desk as he hopped off. "I've been waiting to talk to you, for quite some time. How is our friend doing? Still fighting in the medical ward?" Vale set his hand on the hilt of his blade, as he walked over to the Captain Commander and tapped his hat before taking it. "You can have Nanao come in, if you would like. But, I would like to spare as many lives possible, today."

The commander's eyes narrowed and his reiatsu spiked. A moment later, his desk fell over as Vale dodged the first swipe of Katen Kyokotsu. Shunsui vanished and swung his second blade down. Again Vale dodged. Shunsui's eyes narrowed. He'd changed. Again. He lifted his blade from the wood where Vale's head had been and growled at his enemy. "I will have you pay with blood for all the lives you have harmed since joining Aizen, Tervaden. You were a fool for coming here."

Vale laughed as dodged the Captain Commander's attacks. "Now now, Kyo. You can't be too upset over spilled blood. Not after what you and your people did to mine." Vale grabbed the Captain's wrist as he came down with his blade again. "Besides, you have to suffer consequences the same as I do. Unfortunately, right now, your consequence is someone stronger than Aizen." Vale slammed his fist into the Captain's chest as he kept a hold of his wrist. "After I kill you," Vale whispered. "How long do you think Nanao will hold out until she gives herself to me?"

Shusui’s eyes boiled with rage. His reiatsu screamed a release. The boards around him creaked and cracked as his head slammed upwards into Vale’s chin. Breaking free of the wolf’s wrist, the commander coughed blood onto the floor, chuckling weakly. “She doesn’t surrender to me. What makes you think she will give in to a low-life like you?!”
He swung both swords in a whirlwind of speed of agility, putting all of his skills into barely standing outside of Vale’s reach until the right moment. There! Putting all of his strength into the dual swing, he ripped into Vale’s chest and cut into one of his arms. Sweat beaded on his forehead.
“You may have taken one pillar …. of Soul Society down, but you won’t….. topple another so easily, powered up or not,” he grunted, gathering his reiatsu around him again.

Vale winced in pain as he fell to one knee. "Shit!"
You will be wounded and heal as if you never had this power.
Vale grunted as he shunpo'd over to the Captain and kneed him in the chest. "I will fucking break you, you fucking pussy!" Vale kneed the Captain again, this time in the face. He grabbed the Captain by his ponytail and lifted him from the ground. With his free hand, Vale snatched the Captain's blades from him and threw them across the room. "I will end you. All of you! I should have done it when I killed the rest of them. All of you are fucking worthless."
Vale drew Chinmoku and called for its release. Vale sent Chinmoku slamming into the Captain, the force of the attack pushed the Captain through the wall. Vale shunpo'd over to the Captain, aiming his fist at the Captain's chest again. His fist broke ground as the Captain rolled away.

The commander rolled, coughed, and shouted a word lost in the echo of falling debris. With a kido shield around him, Shunsui bodily threw himself against Vale. The man cursed, dropping Chinmoku, as their bodies broke through the balcony and rolled onto the wide roof. The commander stood unsteadily to his feet, back bent, blood pouring from dozens of wounds on his body. His eyepatch had fallen off, revealing the weaker, flickering, black and red pupil underneath. Reiatsu churned around him like a wildfire, cloaking him in a mirage-like haze. Shunsui took a step forward, breaking the tiles.
“Get up, Vale Tervaden,” he growled. “The fight’s not over yet. If you’re determined to label our cause worthless, then stand and pulverize me. If you can't," he paused, "then you will know you're living a lie."

Vale slowly rose to his feet, grinning madly. Little did the Captain know that he was helping Vale's cause, and not his own. But, pain was pain. Pain is pain. Pain is...Pain is Aizen's return. Vale straightened him and looked to the Captain with narrowed eyes before disappearing from the Captain's view. Appearing in front of him, Vale placed a hand over the Captain's good eye. "Boo!" Vale unleashed a massive bolt of lightning between his hand and the Captain's face, taking out his eye. "Orihime taught me that little trick." He pointed to his own eyepatch as the Captain stumbled backward. Vale shunpo'd behind the Captain and grabbed both of his arms and placed a foot to his back.
"When you see our friend in hell, do tell him Yumiko will be well looked after." Vale forced the Captain's body as he pulled his arm backwards until they were free of their sockets. He dropped on of the Captain's arms and began hammering into his face with his free hand. "All of you are fucking wastes of space. All of you! All of you!" Vale hammered until his arm grew weak, then tossed the Captain to the side.

“Last Resort, Ocean’s Embrace,” Nanao yelled out from behind a barrier she had formed while the commander had kept him distracted. A wall of warming blue energy rose up, encircling the wounded captain, preserving his form. She glared through watery eyes at the enemy. “We will always be standing. Even when you think you’ve won,” she stated proudly, trying to ignore the way her hands were trembling.
Get up, Captain. Get up.
With that prayer she sent another blast of energy through the connection formed between them.

“Soren. Soukatsui.” As a roaring tide of blue white flame roared towards Vale. Shunsui stumbled to his feet, his good eye wrapped in the kido and numb from the pain echoing in the back of his mind. His weak eye focused on his opponent. “Stay there, Nanao-chan. The wards there should protect you,” he murmured, half to himself.
As Vale emerged from the kido, Shunsui stumbled and disappeared, appearing behind him and swung his body in a flailing spin, his arms whipping out like propellers. His teeth were grit as he bore with each red-hot spike of agony from using his body like this, but Yamamoto’s teachings kept him moving.
“Ichimaru was your pawn who could endure the most, wasn’t he?” the captain murmured, in the same half-asleep voice. “You probably thought Juu-chan was the one for this side, didn’t you.” He vanished and slammed his leg into the back of his neck. “Wrong evaluation.”

Vale stumbled forward as the Captain made contact. "I don't give a fuck who can endure what!" He turned grabbing the Captain leg and twisted it until he could here the man's bones shatter. He pushed the Captain away as he fell to one knee. "Kyo, you old fool. Have you not learned that I do not care who can suffer what? I will push until you break. Then, I will make sure that you can not be pieced together. Far worse is coming, Kyo. Far worse. I will bring the Soul Society to its knees by the time I am through."
Vale walked over to the edge of the barrier that kept the Captain's lieutenant protected. "Hello, Nanao." He looked at the barrier. "Do you think this will protect you, Nanao? That I am going to stand here like Loki did and just beat on, it hoping it will break? No..." Vale waved his hand opening a godly gate and stopping time. He walked over to the Captain, kicked away his zanpakuto and grabbed him by his ponytail. Dragging the Captain along, he pulled him through the gate, only to exit another inside the barrier. He dropped the Captain, letting him fall subject to the pause in time again.
Vale knelt down behind the Lieutenant and removed her dagger from her Lieutenant's band. He lifted his leg as he stood and kicked her in the side of the head. The gate closed as she hit the floor. He shunpo'd over to his zanpakuto and called for Chinmoku's release. "Devour her!" Chinmoku began to tear and drill into the Lieutenant as if she were nobody and nothing. This was not about returning Aizen anymore. Not anymore. "I will bring this fucking mountain down!" He looked to the Captain Commander. "Do you hear me, Captain Commander? I will bring it down right on your head!"

“NANAO!” Shunsui screamed into the air, stumbling up on his good leg. His lieutenant’s screams echoed in his head, burrowing into his mind like splintered glass. Clenching his willpower over his reiatsu, he focused everything and vanished. Pulling Nanao’s bloody form with him, he rolled and then laid still over her as Chinmoku tore into his back, even through the kido wards. He cursed and held her, eyes squeezed shut.
“Captain, captain, let go,” she whispered. “You can still fight.”
Shunsui coughed more blood. “Nah, Nanao-chan, I can’t. Staying like this is the only way I can protect you.” He coughed again as Chinomoku ripped through muscle and burrow deeper. “Are you okay?”
“Asking about me in a time like this - You-”
“With a response like that, I guess you are.”
“Cap-captain,” she paused. “Shunsui, you can’t give in. If you do-”
“We can fight another day…” came the slowly fading voice of her captain. Bones cracked. "I think I underestimated him...."

Nanao's eyes widened as her heart tightened in her chest. Shunsui's reiatsu was falling, falling. No. "Stop it, stop it, stop it!!!" she screamed, her hands fisting in the haori of her captain, holding him. As if holding him would keep him at her side. Don't go. Not now. Please. Nothing. Nothing's begun with us.

Vale's grin grew. "Yes, Kyo. Die for her." He reformed a portion of his blade as he walked over to the Captain and the Lieutenant. "Die for her!" Vale thrust his blade into the Captain's back. "Go ahead and die!" Chinmoku continued to tear into the Captain, as it wrapped around him and began tearing into his Lieutenant.
"Enough!" The god, Alister, grabbed Vale's arm. "You were meant to help restore the balance. Not destroy it."
Vale's blade reformed, by the hand of Alister. "Stay out of this, Alister. This has to be done."

Alsiter released the Soul Reaper's arm, and grabbed him by the throat. "Was it not you that lectured me on balance? If I allow you to kill this man, what do you think must be done to equal this atrocity? A life for a life, Tervaden." Alister released Vale from his hold.

Vale looked past the god, only to see the Captain as he slumped over with his Lieutenant in his arms. "And, whose life are we taking?" Alister frowned and narrowed his eyes. "You know who. Keep on this path and-"Vale punched the god in the face. "No...No...." He shook his head and he backed himself against the wall. "No." He waved his hand, opening a gate and shunpo'ed through it.
