Tokyo a modern city with little to no involvement inside the spiritual worlds battles. Within which only a single spiritual being would cross on it way toward Karakura Town, but today it would be the scene of a rather horrible event. At first the air above the city would shimmer as if the air was superheated for an instant. Those spiritually aware would see a sight that would hold their breaths in there tthroats. There was something that looked like a garganta but it was blood red in color and had flickering flames emerging from within it.

From within this tear a single figure emerged leaving the hole open in space as it surveyed the area. The figure was cloaked in blood red robes with a single distinctive feature to it. A white mask with no expressions upon it stood as if secured to the mans face. "Let the start of my masters rule begin here and now... Starting with this city."

Two armored arms would emerge from inside the robes and a large circle of flame would surround the city of Tokyo. All shinigami in the area would be cut off from the Seireitei and all hollows would feel the urge to eat dwindled but their bloodlust increased to an almost insatiable level. "Let the mark of war be placed upon the land."

{{Alright this thread is open to up to 2 members of each faction minus the three people mentioned in the thread title. Anyone joining must rp out fighting against the sudden surge of hollows and their power increase.}}

[maria]

this is a gift, it comes with a price

who is the lamb and who is the knife?

Maria was so sick of that awful little town, and she was oh so happy to be out of it and back in a real city. Karakura Town left a simply disgusting taste in her mouth. It was far from the Dutch Spy's ideal location, partially because she was forced to dress as a dreaded tourist to blend in. Prominence shuddered at the mere thought of that awful fanny pack that she wore only yesterday. The women shuddered, trying to dash the thoughts of that awful disguise from her mind.

At least she had this caesar salad to wash away the taste from her mouth, and the fine and delicate liquor she ordered to go with it helped too. The green leaves make a pleasant crunching noise as she quietly chewed away. Her mind wandered, what was she going to do in such a beautifully large city? Hhmmm... Shopping, definitely more shopping. Her eyes lazily moved down to the dozens of bags that surrounding her little table outside of the Tokyo cafe.

Oh it was such a pleasant day for shopping. It was nice and sunny, not a hollow in sight due to her constantly suppressing her own spiritual energies, oh and a gigantic ring of fire around Tokyo. The woman almost did a double take. That was new. Something caused it, and something big. The back of her neck tingled with the presence of a stronger spirit, something much much stronger. Then her mind drifted back to the large sum of money she "convinced" her boss to give her... Screw fighting, shopping sounded a lot better. But first she would finish her salad.

Screams of the innocents, and the blood hungry howls of the hollows filled her ears. But she ignored it, hollows weren't her problem. It was the shinigami's problem. Those self entitled warriors could shove it up their arses for all Maria cared. That's when the fat man ran along. A large hollow was in pursuit. It's body seemed to be made of long sickly looking black tentacles. It's white mask was in the center of the mass of appendages, and seemed to bubble with some diseases or another. The man came to a halt upon seeing the Quincy. "Please woman, you gotta help me! This thing, it's gonna kill me!" he almost screamed in terror, wildly pointing at the giant tentacle monster.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Crunch! Crunch! Crunch! With every bite of her salad the hollow grew closer to the man. Maria eyed him up and down. He didn't look that rich, or powerful. Meh, it never hurt to ask. "You rich?" She bluntly asked, pointing her fork at the man. A look of pure confusion appeared on the man's face. Was he rich? Why the heck did that matter! He looked over to the hollow, back at her, then back to the hollow. "No I'm not! But you gotta help me!" he cried out, a drop of sweat running down his face. The thing was getting nerve wrecking close.

Maria sighed. What made poor people ask her for help? She was concealing her spiritual energy. Maybe it was the cross? Might make her look saintly. The woman made a mental note to hide her cross, she didn't want to help EVERY desperate sack that came to her for help. But she did give the man some very good advice. "Keep running if you want to live."

Confusion turned to shock as the man's mouth hung agape. "You are a horri-" the man couldn't finish his sentence before the hollow snatched him up. With one large gulp the innocent man was swallowed whole, only adding to the strange creature's power. It's white mask then swung to face Maria. A chuckled came out of it's deformed lips, she looked tasty. "Don't even try it." Prominence advised the hollow before taking another bite of her salad. With a roar the thing charged at the Quincy, clearly not taking her advice. It's mind was consumed solely by hunger.

With a clatter Maria's chair fell backwards as she rose to her feet. Her right arm snapped upwards, and the golden cross on her wrist glowed with a light only comparable to the sun itself. Within seconds the glowing energy solidified into the sleek and stylish crossbow known simply as Mata Hari. Twang. A single miniature arrow shot forward, slamming into the thing's head. A screech of pain was soon followed by a loud explosion, sending a thick black goo everywhere. Then another screech, this one of pure rage. Someone was responsible for covering her in this, and they were going to pay.

”Sometimes, Boring is better.”

Debates with his benefactor, Johann, bordered on an edge between tiring and inconceivable fun. It amazed Grimmjow that the two of them, a human and an Arrancar, were so alike yet so different. They had never agreed on some things—like their constant argument over normalcy. Grimmjow hadn’t understood for quite a while: they were two completely different kinds, and maybe what Johann called normal was Grimmjow’s boring. Maybe to Johann, what Grimmjow considered normal was reckless. He wasn’t sure. Johann sure seemed to be a hypocrite, though; he took as much thrill out of racing around Kiel in his fast cars as Grimmjow did out of free-running.

If boring was ever better, though, today wasn’t the time for it. Grimmjow was almost sick from boredom as he loitered on a park bench in Japan’s largest city. It was a bustling epicenter of activity, and yet he had never been more bored anywhere else. His Gigai was too weak, his Gikon was too loud, his feet refused to carry him anywhere, and he was almost physically ill for the simple fact that if he had had anything less to do in Tokyo, he might as well have up and died there.

It was horrible.

”It would be advisable for you to find some activity to satisfy your roving soul. May I suggest a coffee shop?” Grimmjow’s eyes flickered open lazily as the first good idea he had heard in roughly three hours issued forth from his gikon’s…lips? Something…Whatever. He rolled over on his stomach and stared blearily down at a gray twill messenger bag in a manner not unlike an African jungle cat deciding whether the herd on the horizon is worth the effort that would be put into capturing it. ”That…may just be the greatest thing I’ve ever heard come outta your mouth.” The words fell out of his mouth with amazing difficulty. He needed to do something. He was starting to fear that he would really die if he didn’t.

Pulling himself off the park bench was tougher than he had anticipated—his success was chalked up to “miracles happen” and left at that. He picked up his messenger bag with much less trouble; inertia was something that worked with him after he made the first move to get up and go. It was even easier to start walking. He knew that there was a café a few city blocks away from where he was; he had spotted it on the way there. He made a beeline for it, as he figured that anywhere else would be out of his way.

He pulled on the café’s door and was a little less than surprised when the blasted thing didn’t budge. He looked at it, dumbfounded. There was no uniformity when it came to human doors. He tried pressing down on the handle; some doors worked that way. It was, again, a no sell. He tried to twist the handle, only to have his hand slip off of it. Nonplussed, He glared at the handle before trying the last option that he was sure could open human doors. He pushed against the heavy oak and glass door, and at last, it relented and let him in. He had a hard time resisting the urge to yell in triumph. His morale boosted by conquering the door, he breezed past a few diners who were eating outside—one caught his eye, as she had very odd blue hair—and meandered inside. He ordered an iced coffee and a small bar of a cake that was on display in the window under the register in the very best Japanese he could, which was actually pretty good—at least he didn’t have to write it out. He palmed a sufficient amount of money to the cashier, who refused to take it and indicated to him a small tray. He looked at it shortly, then huffily dropped the cash on the table and took his food and drink.

Walking back outside, he took a seat apart from the other diners. He was still miffed from the uppity little waitress, and was pretty certain that he would very much like to punch the next layman that came near him. Grimmjow felt a bit more relaxed as he downed the cool, bittersweet liquid. For all he could have said about humans, coffee was their single most wonderful gift to the world.

He put it down only halfway drained and started on the small cake that made up the second part of his purchase. It was actually better than it had looked. He ate it in two bites, though—he made a mental note to get another one.

Alas, fate was unwilling to allow him to get it. He was aware of it before the diners around him—a static tearing sound that he could have never mistaken for anything but a garganta. The surge of reiatsu came next. He stood up at that—somebody was trying to make a flashy entrance. Then the fat guy showed up, running faster than Grimmjow thought a fat guy was capable of running. It was of little use. He was caught and killed. Hollow food. Grimmjow stood up and walked away, releasing his Gigai from his control into Keiji’s. ”Keiji! Stay undercover. Ya don’t follow me. Got it?" He was sensing more hollows, and a bloodthirsty grin was slowly creeping across his face. These bozos had just disturbed Grimmjow Jeagerjaques’s coffee break. Said bozos were about to die.

His Gigai stood to attention, nodding curtly. It was weird seeing his own features expressing mannerisms he never would. ”Of course.”

A roar greeted him as he rounded a corner. Jeez, these guys are everywhere! Silently mourning the loss of his coffee, he stared down the writing, roaring monster that stood before him. An immense, birdlike hollow, Grimmjow sensed that she was stronger than most of her level. She dove down with a beak-like mask in an attempt to make him lunch. ”Fat chance, pùla*.” Reaching a hand forward, he took hold of her beak bare-handed.

The kick landed square on the top of her head, destroying a large portion of it. Glaring down at the fallen hollow, he aimed a bright crimson Cero at the body. No use killing something if it you weren’t ready to kill it all the way. Watching the body burn in the ray or concentrated reiatsu, he realized he had forgotten just how cool it felt to completely thrash someone. He wanted to do it again. He felt a kind of powerful he hadn’t felt for a long time. He wanted blood.

A manic chuckle escaped his lips as he set out into the city, looking for the source of the immense reiatsu that oppressed the city.

[Lhin Demizu]

:: A simple recon of the human world city of Tokyo, and report back anything suspicious. Such a simple order why did they send me in to do this when there are hundreds of better candidates like the entire second division... :: Xiao had been reading the latest and final reports from within the Battle of Karakura Town that she had gotten her hands on. To her every piece of information she could gather would be easy to digest and tell in a report later.

Walking within her gigai she felt nothing within the city than a few low powered hollows. Most of which would not make the evening as the shinigami in the area where much stronger than those hollows. Shaking her head she felt a grumble within the gigais stomach. ::Great food again... I forgot how troublesome it is to eat all the time when not in the Seireitei... :: Finding a small shop she stopped inside grabbing a large bottle of green tea and a small cake. She would eat it as she walked along outside on the streets.

After another hour or so of walking she would feel and hear what sounded like the sky itself being torn apart. Turning back and forth with her eyes she scanned anywhere nearby for the source of it all. But that was before she felt the crushing weight of an immense reiatsu emerge from a pocket of space. Reaching for her phone to contact the Seireitei she managed to get out a simple "Crushing reiatsu... Overpowering to the point of nausea. Will confront if limiter release is allowed?" There was a simple response given before it cut out. "Limiter may be if....."

Looking down at her phone Xiao felt a sense of immense dread overwhelm her. "If what... What is the limiter release conditions... Hello Seireitei control... Damn it all." Slamming the phone into the cement beneath her she felt an immense heat fly overtop of her and stop somewhere outside the city. Grabbing her Chappy pen she popped the mod soul pill into her mouth and would emerge in her proper clothing. Looking at the Chappy she spoke to it "Chappy go and hide somewhere safe... Things are going to get heated around here I have the feeling..."

With a salute her gigaid self would get up and run toward a nearby mall. Xiao would slap her hand against her forehead and would turn her attention to whatever it was she could feel closest to her. Grabbing her blade with her right hand she would make it about fifty or so feet when she would notice a large man get attacked by a hollow and then consumed. Turning away from that she noticed a small group of hollows descend toward her.

A rather calm looking expression crossed her face as she knew these hollows where of no consequence or danger toward her and she would raise up her hand. "Hadou number 31 Shakkaho." The kidou burst forth from her hand hitting the first hollow dead on its mask shattering the mask and consuming the hollow in a brilliant red flash.

:: Seems I havent lost my touch now to find out where this power source is coming from... :: With that Xiao would launch herself into the sky and stop and look at the direction of the red tear in the sky.

"So it seems there are only three players that have stepped onto this chess board. A little disappointing but nonetheless I guess they will get to meet the herald of their demise." With that those with spiritual awareness would feel the spiritual flame conjoured by this thing start incinerating hollows as it slowly narrowed down to less than a mile in diameter. The slowly decreasing ring would also set the ground aflame for all those spiritually aware forcing them into the air and directly next to the thing. Discarding the robe that covered the man you would all be greeted by this sight.

Picture of the warrior

"Now that I have your undivided attention. Welcome to your funeral pyre brought by me. I am simply known as Twenty. I am the herald of a coming that noone can stop. Be it you Espada, Euro-Quincy, or even esteemed captain of the Gotei 13. My masters are coming and they shall descend upon this world and reduce it to ash and make all the human their servants." As he spoke his arms would be outstretched and would be seemingly praising a small group of three black robed figures within the red garganta. They would turn away and proceed away from it as the garganta would dissolve into the air.

Grabbing the sword upon his back the warrior would swing it out and stand there looking at the trio and speaking up. "I wish to test you before I burn you into nonexistance. Have at you Espada, Quincy, and Taicho." [/center]

[ashlotte]

Ashlotte came a bit late but none the less knew what was up by silently watching when she stepped onto the field (Tokyo). She had fought hollows but easily won through the mess that confronted her. Although she had a general picture, she wondered who the mastermine behind this was and declaring that the maker sent her here for this reason. However, one question was a miss , who were the other 3... The other three reiatsu she could sense. It only came to be seen when she made it to the scene.

Ashlotte stood with her arms folded on the tower as she listened in on the conversation. She couldn't see them of course but the reiatsu was very intense especially on the "knight". She had no fear from the herald's word. It was when he was finished that Ashlotte ran down the tower and then walked slowly in front of the group joining them.

Her arms were out by her side, her head lowered slightly but turned enough to look as if she was looking at the herald. Some of her red reiatsu flickered visually as it leaked. She was quiet as she made her entrance but then silently she spoke in a hollowed tone.

"At first... i wondered why the maker brought me to such a place... disgusting in my taste but now... I understand completely. To threaten the maker's land is unforgivable. I will not allow you or anyone to plague it... You are indeed powerful but none the less as the maker asks I wont let defeat these three and walk away believing your "masters" can take what they want from "him"..."

[raptor]

With the shouts of alarm ringing loud on the evening news broadcast Remy turned to look at the TV set up in the corner. Granted News reporters and camera's couldn't show shinigami or hollows or even there ways of getting around, you could see the effects of said events if you knew how to look. For that matter half the city erupting at once either meant that the Japanese ticked off the united states again or..... With that thought Remy slipped out the back door and got on his communicator. "Remy LeBeau of the third division checking in, all quiet here in the states though I have evidence of either a hollow incursion or worse in Tokyo heading over to check it out. Remy out" With his communicator tucked away Remy headed for Tokyo as fast as he could go.

Minutes later

Stepping out from the portal it was all Remy could do to stay upright for the first couple seconds. The weight of the reaitsu was overwhelming. Remy took his communicator back out to report it in greatly stressing the need for some back up to arrive. With that Remy ditched his gigai in an ally way and unsheathed his sword just in time to cut down the first of what was to be (he was sure) a lot of arrancar.Now just to find the source of this mess...... Remy thinks as he starts sneaking around the battlefield to find out whats going on.

He had been forced into the air. He had already been mad as it stood since his coffee had been lost somewhere in the fray, but this was a worse offence by far. He drowned out the words of the knight who stood before him—he preferred to glare around and observe the small group who had joined him up here. The bluenette from the coffee shop was there, as was a small girl in the unmistakable garb of a shinigami captain. He grinned at them, keeping his hand at his sword and fidgeting absently with the already frayed hilt weaving. He looked at the knight with disdain and snapped, ”Nillo! Shaddap. Can’t ya see the adults are talkin’ now? We got better things to do that hear you yak, and you just gimme one second and I’ll shut ya up myself. “

He looked the White-haired shinigami over as she stared him down with a look of straight venom. His trademark predator’s grin curled up at his lips as he waved at her with a lazy sweep of the arm. ”Hey, woman! Feels to me like ya didn’t get hold of your buddies in time to lift that seal, huh? Hey, that’s okay. Just roll with Grimmjow and he’ll take care of ya.” He paused for a beat and they stared at one another until he laughed like a wild man. ”Just Kiddin’! You’re on your own, kiddo!” He laughed harder. He slayed himself sometimes. His laughter petered into a satisfied sigh as he looked at the bluenette. ”And you…what are ya?” He frowned, honestly perplexed. He had seen humans with powers (hell, Johann was one), but this woman was different. He looked from her to the other Arrancar that had arrived. She spoke after him to the knight, and as she did, Grimmjow noticed for the first time the red-cloaked figures behind the knight. He raised one trimmed brow at them, wondering how this detail escaped him—it was so miniscule, right? He pinched the bridge of his nose in a moment of frustration.

”Pùla! What are you on about?” He started, flabbergasted, then sighed and continued in another vein. ” …never mind. I guess it ain’t important. What is important is that I’m stronger than you. Team up with me, Ce⁺? We don’t need these two. C’mon.” He appealed to her. He was convinced that they as Arrancar could prevail alone. Smirking around, he crossed his arms and fell quiet for a while.

[Lhin Demizu]

Her feeling of dread came true as the shield of fire around the city closed in on them, but when it stopped a distance around the collected bunch she let out a held breath. Listening to the words spoken by the man she would still stand defiant to the last despite seeing and feeling the smallest of pressures from the figures behind the knight. Her heart sank as another arrancar showed up and seemingly taunted the knight.

Everything was coming fast and furious and she was having a little trouble keeping it all straight, but when her mind finished sorting it out she would stand tall. Her hair and uniform would ruffle a little as the winds kicked up as the red garganta sealed itself up. Then came the taunting words from Grimmjow. With a smirk and a smile she would look over at him and with a simple phrase become more than a little more comfortable. "Limiter Release..."

With the words uttered a simple design in exact duplicate to her divisional seal would glow on her shoulder and then vanish. Her reiatsu would fluctuate greatly and then would stabilize just beneath that of Grimmjows. "I am not quite as helpless as you would want to think Espada... I would think working together might be advisable against this foe, but what do I know I am just a shinigami correct?"

Her words cold as the deepest ocean would cut those of weaker constitutions but someone like Grimmjow will just laugh it all off. Looking at the knight Xiao would without muttering another word raise her zan out of its sheath and speak again. "Daerou sono enkai touza uwadzutsumi ue temae, Taifuu"

Her zan would swirl into nothing but a blob of water before reforming inside her hand as a simple warhammer. Grabbing her phone one last time she would udder a single command into it. "This is for all shinigami within the greater Japan area, mainly those around Tokyo. We have a major incident in progress, gather the captains and expect casualties. Captain Demizu out." As soon as her words where spoken she would toss her phone toward the ground and get ready to fight this knight.

The knight looked at the collected group. With a rather quick disdainful glance he would first look at Grimmjow, then Ashlotte, then at Xiao as she released her limiter. "SO I see the captain is the first of this bunch to get serious... I wouldve expected it from you first number 6... Oh wait or should I call you the lapdog espada?"

His words an obvious taunt came right before he would vanish with a crackle in the air. Reappearing behind Grimmjow he would swing his fist in and hit Grimmjow square in the middle of his back. Then as soon as he moved he would vanish and reappear behind Xiao who he would hit with a roundhouse kick which would send her skidding across the air. "Weak... Pathetic.... Why wont you fight me you fools."
[/center]

[ashlotte]

Ashlotte shook her head to Grimmjow and spoke directly to him once he was finished.

"Sir Grimmjow, It's not about being a Shinigami or Arrancar... Its about the judgement that needs to be given. No one threatens the maker's land and gets away with it... We must defeat this thing either way, with or without the help of these two... I oblige anyone who fights to protect the maker's land. So do not feel like I'm against you... I must also say... I wouldn't judge this guy so much... I can't see his appearance ... But i can see the spiritual energy, the intense reiatsu... I honestly... don't think it'd be wise to fight this with us two alone"

After speaking suddenly she heard the knight speak once more and she turned her head immediately as she grabbed hold of her rapier.

"SO I see the captain is the first of this bunch to get serious... I wouldve expected it from you first number 6... Oh wait or should I call you the lapdog espada?"

After those words, she gripped her rapier tight for she immediately saw his reiatsu flare up when he immediately vanished and reappeared behind grimmjow. Her eyes widened after seeing his fist effortlessly swing upon Grimmjow's back as it looked critical from Ashlotte's point of view. A flash once again as the reiatsu grew for that split second and immediately noticed that the shinigami was kicked into the air. Ashlotte already noticed the intense power that the guy had.

"I see... I'll try to provide you with enough entertainment, Sir...Do forgive me if it is not enough" She said as you could tell her english accent came in.

She showed no emotion when she spoke her release phase.

"Paeniteo Vix Angelus"

Ashlotte Knelt down on one leg as her right hand touches the ground. With her left she only pulled the blade out slightly from her sheathe which thus followed by a bright-red glowing symbol of her religion emerging beneath her. A explosion did occur for a moment but once the smoke cleared, She shown a different appearance. Her tattoo began to constantly glows bright red and her hair also changed into a reddish color. Big bright scarlet red angel wings which the feathers are nearly sharp as knives. Ashlotte's hollow mask also came completely off, giving her sight and in addition breaks open the terrifying reiatsu that has been leaking from her.

When she got sight, she smiled as she examined the knights appearance.

"Well now...Let us begin shall we?" She said gripping Sanctus Campana, which is now a staff and got in battle position.

[raptor]

"Oui! All de arrancar here are beginnin ta get a bit annoying......" Gambit whispered to himself as he took out another patrol on his way through town. Thats when he heard the widecast over his cellphone/radio; Remy knew there was a technical name for it but he never really payed attention he just used it. With the widecast saying that one of the captains was here Remy figured that he'd be best to head over that way. Stopping quick to check directions Remy quickly spotted the focal point of all the reaitsu in the area.... or at least where it seemed to be the strongest.

Remy had almost made it there when several arrancar jumped out from ambush. "Oui fer de love of......!" Remy blurted as he managed to parry away the first attack. With the three starting to circle him Remy decided that now would be a good time to release. "Denka Kisake! (Charge Queen)" Remy shouted as he spun his blade up horizontal to the ground. Within a split second Remys sword morphed into his released form, a bo-staff. With a quick spin backwards Remy parried the sword thrust from the guy behind him that threatened to give him a hair-cut right about the level of his neck. After that it didnt take Remy long to finish of the other two as well. With a couple shunpo steps up and north more Remy found himself on the sidelines of what was to be an interesting battle. For now though Remy decided to sit on the sideline and see what he could learn; after all Remy was an information whore so to speak.

[Lhin Demizu]

Xiao felt the blow hit her before she could even react to it. The sudden crack of his foot against her side sent her flying and she would regain her balance after twenty feet or so and would regain her footing. Looking at the knight her eyes would of narrowed and she would give off a rather angry look. "Fine I guess this means I get serious..."

Her words would be cut off as she saw Ashlotte release her resurrecion. ::So the arrancar wants to assist... I think a couple of kidous can assist her in this battle...:: Xiaos thoughts came fast as she figured out her moves inside of her mind. Each contingency she would attempt to ascertain outcomes and eventualities for but in this fight she had no idea what she was up against. Raising her hand she would aim it at the knight and speak again. "Walls of iron sand, a priestly pagoda, glowing ironclad fireflies. Standing upright, silent to the end. Bakudo Number 75, Gochutekkan."

With the full incantation given and her reiatsu flared Xiao used one of the most powerful restraining kidous known to the Gotei upon the knight. The five iron pillars would appear on him and as soon as they made contact she would speak again. " Carriage of Thunder. Bridge of a spinning wheel. With light, divide this into six!. Bakudo Number 61, Rikujokoro."

Once again another incantation released and another restraining kidou sent into the knight pinning him inside eleven pillars of light and iron. With that done Xiao would raise her hammer up and her limiter upon her arm would dissolve the rest of the way away releasing her full reiatsu pool to use. Using her free left arm she raised the phone she had and broadcasted directly to a reiatsu signature she recognized nearby, "Mr. Lebeau this is taicho Demizu of the fifth. Record this battle and stay hidden... Should it look hopeless leave this area immediately. That is a standing order do not get involved, observe, and then return to Yamamoto Soitaicho with this battles information..."

With that spoken she would get rid of her phone back into her robes once again. "Lets get him now while the kidous are holding him at bay..."

Oh no you didn’t!

”Lapdog?! Espada?!Hey buddy, I got some news for ya—Nngh!”

The hit made its mark, the force sending Grimmjow careening forward; before he knew it, he was falling down, down, a little too quickly toward the fiery shield—

Oh yeah, he could walk on air. That fact had escaped his mind for a second there, and he felt more than a little stupid as he regained his altitude and saw the Captain meet the same sort of treatment that he just did. Still, a whole lot had just happened within four minutes flat, so he addressed the female Arrancar while checking her release up and down.

”Heh, sad that ya don’t have confidence in your own kind. Yanno what these guys’ll do to ya? They’ll take ya into custody and then they’ll kill ya! C’mon, this shoulda been obvious from the start—“

"Walls of iron sand, a priestly pagoda, glowing ironclad fireflies. Standing upright, silent to the end. Bakudo Number 75, Gochutekkan."

Interrupted in mid-sentence for the second time, he whipped his head around to see the captain release a restraining kido on the knight. He grinned as he saw a muscle in her lithe arm move in a way that hinted to him her next move:

" Carriage of Thunder. Bridge of a spinning wheel. With light, divide this into six! Bakudo Number 61, Rikujokoro."

The near-blinding second kido restrained the knight further. Grimmjow allowed his reiatsu to flare up to a level barely restrained as the captain released her limiter (Don’t they need permission for that?) and let her reiatsu settle. Her reiatsu was almost like a mountain stream to his sense—it didn’t mesh well with his own unstable torrent. Compatability aside, she was strong, and she would be helpful if she knew more kido like those.

Grimmjow looked from the Captain to the Arrancar and shot them an look, a visual cue that was likely incomprehensible to the shinigami (they read body language differently or something)—he was willing to work with her for the time being, as long as they won. Still, he was certainly not going to act like they were allies or anything. Feign disorder, and crush ‘em.

[/color] He straightened up and turned out his palm, charging a heavy blood-red Cero to take advantage of the knight’s restrained predicament.

”Alright. So—Who are ya, Lancelot?” The sarcastic malice was evident as a static crackle perforated the space where he had stood before and he reappeared in a blink before the knight. ”Hey!! Move it!” He called as a last-minute attempt at warning the women who may or may not have put themselves in the blast radius before letting the cero slam into the knight’s general torso and head area.

He watched the smoke clear out with a manic laugh. It was a perfect, square-on hit. Bea-freaking-utiful.

His standing there was short lived as the captains kidous slammed into him pinning him in place within the sky. All the while he made no attempt to struggle against them and when Grimmjow made his attack he would make a noise. It was a simple laugh coming from behind the mask of the knight. "Fools all of you... You will fight and it will be a futile gesture..."

His words came out crisp right before the cero made contact with him and he vanished into the dust and explosion of the blast. As the blast settled the knights profile would be seen in the dust and yet it was different. The helm and upper torso armor had been destroyed by the cero and the face of the man was exposed. A skeletal face made of white bone like that of a low level hollow. "Thank you you released my masters restraining device from me now prepare to perish all of you..."

With that the knight would grab his sword and swing it pointing it toward Grimmjow. With another sonidoeque move he would vanish and appear before Grimmjow and swing the flat of the blade into his stomach. As soon as the blade connected he would be gone again this time he would be kicking Ashlotte on the back of her head with a hammer kick. Then he would flicker once again and reappear before Xiao. Raising his blade up and then thrusting forward he would stab the captain in the lower part of her torso. With a laugh he would then kick her off his blade and then turn to look over the battlefield "It will tkae more than a single Gran Ray to take me down. Why not try harder you fools. [/center]
