Los Noches
Deep below Los Noches a void of nothingness exists, El Nada. Here is where the Negativos reside..
Takato sat in his chair of shadows stairing up at the orb that was the door to El Noches above. Only the Negativos knew of its existance. "Why do we exist? This pointless value of a so called afterlife." His chin rested in his hands waiting for the others of the Order of the Negativos to arrive.
"Really now, do you have any gratitude for the power you have been given". Katsura walked in, hands on her hips, she tilted her head and rolled her eyes."Don't you find such depressive thoughts a burdon on your soul"?
"Burdons on your soul can be a training if you can control them..." aura was standing at the other side of Takato with same distance as katasura.
Takato glanced at Katsura. "Power is good but its no trade for a life, or a heart for that matter." He instinctivly touched the hole on his chest, imagining the heart beat that he thought would go with the soft music of the shadow of the day by linkin park that was currently emmiting from his mask phones.
Katsura sighed and rubbed her eyes, she stared at him."So, what is the meaning of this meeting"? She spoke as if she had other things to attend to.
Takato broke a smile. His patients had wore thin. "To plan our attack on Los Noches. We inact our invasion to capture the Hōgyoku." His smile seemed to peak all the way acroos his face in a miniacle manner.
"How long do you think we'll be needed to wait?" aura asked while making a repeating movement making her zanpaktou go up 1 centimeter to then fall down on its place again over and over again.
"I see". Was all Katsura said, she raised a hand to heer mouth and nibbeled her thumb nail.
"We simply need the rest of the Negativos." Takato smiled.
"I just though about a thing..." aura said. "Why do people always spell their names with a big letter in the begining?"
Takato's mind was elswhere as the banter started. "Common grammer i suppose?" He was drawing out the best possible match ups againts the Espadas in his head based on abilities and previous knowledge.
"k..." aura says and noticed that Takato was thinking. "what is goin on in your mind right now?"
Katsura leant against the wall, arms crossed across her chest, she had a stern look on her face, concerntrating about the battle to come.
"Your abilities might be for recon on this trip...we want to avoid Wonderweiss, grimmjow would be best for..." His mind wandered with incoherent plans and battle strategies while a faint sound could be recognized as bach floated out of his headphones.
"And what of me". A soft voice spoke, Scarlet walked towards them her heels clicking on the floor as she walked into light. She flicked her hair and smiled at each person in turn, Katsura merely nodded at her refusing to return the smile.
Takato's train of thought broke as he looked up. As usual his mind went blank apon first sight of her body, but he quickly remembered the person behind the looks. "Well scarlet i cant plan around you when im not even sure your willing to go with us."
"Oh I'm bored so, if you ask nicely I might just come". Scarlet smirked and tapped her foot, giggling into her hand, she walked a little closer till she was by him."Besides, a big plan like this, I wouldn't miss it for the world". She kicked up her heel, knocking it against the end of her large 5ft metal fan.
Takato smiled. "So tell me then, what would you do with an orb that brought you into being a soulless yet powerful being?" He relaxed in his chair, most of the order had arrived by now.
"Well, I believe the question is what does my life lack". Scarlet did a little spin."Obviousl
y I don't lack beauty or perfection". She flicked her hair again.
"Humble? Not." Takato went along with the game. He had time to spare as it was.
"Lieing? Not!". Scarlet laughed again and thought more."Maybe, to be alive again, a chance to redo my life but better". She thought of having a family.
"Well then you have my aim as well, the same cannot be said for the rest." His gaze washed over the present members of the order. Takato knew that not all of them wanted to regain their life.
"What about you Katsura"? Scarlet turned to Katsura, she was ignored."Fine".
aura had some kind of wierd silence going on in the corner she was standing in.
-3 walked in from the darkness. "What is this meeting about, I was busy counting the seconds through eternity." He said in his same emotionless tone. "I suppose it is something significant to have this many people come."
Takato raised his arms as if to embrace the entire group. "Negativos, those bestode with the opposition of the espada, the negatives. Today we embark on our mission to become whole. Some may with so restore life, others ultimate power and still other simply for their own descretion. However in total we all aim to aquire the Hōgyoku. We will accend into Los noches and destroy the positive opposition. Now join me my brethren and venture into the world above, zanpakto at the ready."
aura looked at him and said "in my case it'll be restoring lifes if that choice comes in my hand..."
"That's it, no strategy, no planning. Just barrel through, and you expect us to take on not only the Espada but also the possibly hundreds of Arankars that could be up there." -3 walked up to the door and knocked on it once to make a point. "They haven't found this door yet. I'm sure if we take a few seconds to come up with some sort of team system they still won't find it." Although a bit monotone he thought he got his point across efficiently.
Scarlet yawned into her perfectly manicured hand."I'm sure there is a plan, there's no need to get some dramatic about it". She rolled her eyes at -3 and leant against the wall.
Katsura sighed and crossed her arms, she wondered if they were ready to take on the Espada.
"No. We will move as one unit unless confroted by espada. Based on abilities and best match ups, Zommari, Starrk, Nnoitra, can be covered by Kat or Aura, Barragan, Ulquiorra, and Aaroniero by saiyokia or Scarlet. Grimmjow, Tai, or Yammy will belong to myself and -3. However these are favorable match ups and may or not play out as planned. Our goal is the inner chamber, recon tells us it is locked away under the floor. Furthermore it will take everyone's combined efforts for Wonderweiss or Aizen himself. We will arrive at the base hallway in the E wing and make our way to the center understood?" Takato unveiled the details of his plan.
"i dont like those 'or'..." aura said from her corner.
-3 stepped back from the door. Now he was satisfied with the plan that was worked out. He silently leaned against a wall listening to the others.
aura has some wierd silence going on from her corner again.
Takato noticed the group was oddly quite. "Aura your thoughts?" He firmly beleived in a strong unit,but this group was little more than centric beings without hearts.
aura breaks her silence. "first i didnt like the 'or's in the plan cuz it can happen that some might not join...and im more used to 1 vs 1 combat...i guess the combat style i can shange but i cant change other peoples choices..."
Katsura hadn't been mentioned, so she inwardly wondered what her role was.
aura goes back to her wierd silence and thinks that katsura was called kat in the strategic point.
Takato smiled, they had all missed the point. "I did not say tag fights, either of you can take on of that group based on favorable ,atch ups, but in reality plans rarely go w flawless. I enjoy chaos more myself, but this is a bare bones plan just in case. Now who is ready?" He asked with an eyebrow cocked.
aura steps out from her corner. "i was more ready for combat then i was of standin here doin nothin..."
Takato was already at the door with his plam pressed on the solid stone. "Lets get goin." The chorus of headstrong by trapt could be heard pumping from his headphones.
-3 stood behind Takato, ready to enter the belly of the beast. He cracked his neck knowing, and expecting, to have a hard time. He hoped he wouldn't be disappointed like he usually is.
Scarlet followed, smiling and humming to herself."Wait one second". She called to the others before bending down and getting her small make-up bag out of her kimono pocket, she quickly redid her lipstick and eyeliner."OKATY..done".
"You have to be kidding.." Takato sighed and pushed the door open. The light was blinding for a bit, after the he could see he noted the door had opened to a long corridor this time. You never know where that thing will throw you out. Immediatly a division of Exequias had rounded the corner on their daily rounds.
-3 took out his Zanpakuto and kicked Takato forward towards the Exequias. "Allons-y oh fearless leader."
Takato had one three foot tuning blade out in a blink. He struck it against the wall and watched the battalion hit the ground cluching their ears. "Oops fprgat to tell the guys to cover theirs." He looked over at -3 hoping he wasnt vomiting and convulsing.
-3 was unchanged, he knew Takato's zanpakuto power so he had put in earplugs. Although some noise got through. When it was done he took the earplugs out and showed them to Takato. He shrugged as he watched the Exequias squirm on the ground.
aura looked at them as if they was deadly sick for the already dead because she was without knowing how used to loud sounds and didnt react thay much to it.
The hallway spilt three ways. Takato signalled to the group to split as the main room all ended with these hallways, "Partner and split up. Take out any espada you find i will meet you at the main room."
"Lets go then Takato." -3 said choosing a hallway and starting down it. He figured they were going to split into the afore mentioned pairs. He wondered though, what would happen if they ran into privaron espada?
aura looks confused because she already forgot how the groups was suposed to be.
A shadow emerged at the end of the hallway. It lumbered foward. "What are you punks doing here?"
"-3, Kat, Aura this way!" Takato montioned towards the figure. The ran ran head long towards the massive person until it was clear that Yammy stood in the hallway...toilet paper in hand.
-3 didn't quite know what the toilet paper was for but followed behind Takato anyway.
aura followed -3 because -3 followed takato.
Yammy scratched his head. "hey your those defective guys that ran after they were made!" He produced a wicked smile. "I bet lord Aizen has a nice rewards for getting rid of you guys."
Kadyian detached himself from a white pillar "Yammy, do you really think Lord Aizen is at all concerned with defective hollow?" he wasn't at all scared of the brute, if only because he was just as powerful as an Arancar "Besides, don't you have better things to do?"
Yammy smile. "Then i got nothin stoppin me from ripping you guys limb from limb." He charged foward arm drawn back in a punch. "Quadruple bala!" He fired of four sonic fast bala blasts at the group.
Takato, with his already drawn sword, deflect the blast with a sound wave of his own. That was his specialty and he wasnt about to let some gorilla beat him at it.
Kadyian frowned, deflecting the bala blasts with his bare hand "You insult me with such attacks Yammy. I don't like repeating myself, but since you seem incapable of hearing things the first time around i'll say it again; You have better things to do" he said cooly.
In an intant -3's changed his sword into his fan and blocked the blast with ease. He refolded the fan showing his emotionless face not even phased by the weak blast.
Kadyian eyed the charging Yammy "For an Arrancar, you sure are stupid. I've met Menos and Menos grande smarter than you"
"Im the muscle, Szayel is the brains." Yammy grinted his teeth. He knew he wasbt the brightest but he didnt need defective trash to insult him. "Ill show you." He lurched foward delivering two massive punches aimed for the closest negativos, Kad and -3.
-3 deflected to punch in a way to bring Yammy closer to him and then closed his fan. He would use the fan to stab Yammy, open it, reclose, twist it, open it again, and repeat until he was throughly satisfied with the gash he would make, or until he had to dodge out of the way. Each time the cycle would restart it would only take two seconds to go through, three if there was a bone in the way.
Kadyian sighed "Yammy, you are over matched" he held out his hand towards Yammy "Cero oscuras" a black bolt of energy formed in his hand "Last chance Yammy, leave now"
Yammy did the last thing expected, he grasped his hilt releasing his zanpakto. The room crumbled to reveal a massive chamber as the fan blade made scratches into his now plated armor. "Oh yeah?" He bellowed.
Takato was now pumping to the drum beat in his head phones. He sprinted and launched into the air delivering a series of blows with his blades in rythm to the music on his way down. The attack left a series of scratches on his chest, miniscule and compairble to -3s.
"How annoying" Kadyian growled, unleashing the Cero near point blank at Yammy.
Yammy grunted a skidded back a bit on impact. He coughed as it faded away, his chest blackened like sot. "Haha, that felt a little warm." He taunted.
"So glad to hear that you're suicidal" Kadyian sighed appearing behind him with his hand on his shoulder, a Cero bolt held in his hand "Don't make me draw my sword Yammy" he released the cero.
The blast flattend him to his stomach, Scorching his back side. His massive hands falling in -3 direction. He kicked up and over in a sumersault aiming a rising kick at Kad. Yammy's face was full of bloodlust mallice.
Takato was now striking the walls and his sword togwether giving off a rythmic vibartion. The entire air pulsated, the world itself seemed distorted.
"How barbaric" he sighed, darting out of the way and landing opposite Takato.
-3 simply side stepped the hand, no much effort was put into it. Then -3 moved to face Takato from a yard away and smiled when he saw Yammy jump infront of him. Most people didn't notice his small movement in battle, so -3 took out his fan and phychicaly manipulated it to repeat the same move he tried before. However this time he aimed at the charred part of Yammy's body where the Kadyian's ceros hit. The phychic control would make the fan move faster, and thus harder as well.
The fan hit true as a clear crack formed in his hardened skin. "No! Your pissing me off!" Yammy growled his face becoming more and more monsterous. "The madder i get the more powerful i become. Cero!" A ball formed at his ogre like face, easily ten times the size of a normal arrancars blast. It fired off taking up the entire area of the room giving off a blinding light.
A heavy weight set in on everyone in the room, Kadyian breathed heavily, his released form threatening to break free. He deflected the Cero blast, sinking waist deep into the floor from the impact, drawing his sword at last "Now Yammy, see the mistake you've made?" his voice evened out as his Aura darkened. He held out his free hand to one side "Gran Rey Cero" a bright green Cero formed in his hand as he released it at Yammy.
Yammy fumed as his body expanded taking the blow full on. His massive form stood, harnened skin cracked, number zero, charred, and arm he had used to block completly gone. "I kill you all." He used his remaining massive arm, holding his boned club, and brought a pummling blow down over Kad.
Takato flashed and reappeared on top of yammy's head. "Flashy arent you two? You need to learn to draw your blade without rleasing it, unlike these reckless espada." He brought his pronged blade down into yammys mask but only penetrating a bit. "-3, kad if you will." He invited the two to finish the espada off as the vibrating blade left him immobile.
Kadyian smiled, darting aside from the club easily "You think this is my blade released? Hardly, it's only awakening to the sounds of battle" he pulled himself out of the crater formed by his deflecting the Cero. He was far from having released his sword, and he was enjoying the thrill. Holding out his hand again as he reappeared on Yammy's shoulder as he brought his sword down hard onto Yammy's armored neck.
-3 didn't even have to move. Using his psychic powers he made the fan shoot around Yammy and shoot straight and hard into the same place Kadyian did, doubling the chance of breaking Yammy's armor.
Yammy's mask began to crack upward from the neck. He frantically grasped at his mask in desperation, pain sering through his body. The room went silent as yammy fell to the floor at his original size, his fawed mask broken and useless.
Not wanting any further problems from Yammy -3 tried to manipulate his fan to shoot right into Yammy's head and to tear apart his brain.
Kadyian outstretched his hand "Everybody stand back, this will hurt anyone around him if he makes me set this off" he smiled at Yammy "Grand Rey Cero" he nearly whispered as the green bolt of energy formed in his hand.
Takato broke the sound barrier as he appeared over the enimies unconscious form. He struck his blades together givving off a impulsing wall of sound dissapating the blast and detering the fan. He sheathed his blades. "His mask is riuned, he no longer posses a threat to our plans."
-3 caught his fan and he looked from Takato to Yammy and then walked forward, casually kicking the unconcious body though while passing it.
Kadyian nodded, absorbing the Cero back into his body "Where to next?"
"We need to nontinue up the halways until we make it to Aizen's command room. Thats where the orb is." Takato started pacing away, shadow of the day by linkin park echoeing from his headphones.
Kadyian nodded, sprinting and easily keeping pace "And once there, what then?"
"We take the orb... by force." -3 said in momotone still looking forward. "Why else would we do this?"
"And here i was thinking i'd have Aizens' stuffed head sitting on my mantle" he said with a half smile "Hopefully this will be interesting"
"If thats your aim, then by all means." Takato sighed looking around the nearest corner making sure it was clear. He nodded for -3 to head foward and check the next corner.
-3 rounded the next corner to find a long straight way. After looking all around including the cieling he didn't see anyone so he nodded to the others.
Kadyian lept from one side of the wall to the next as he shot down the corridor, keeping his senses open to any who might ambush him.
The three were side by side in advancement. It was quite, maybe a bit to quite. Takato paced foot by foot , until there was a peculiar click. "What was.." Then the panel under their feet vanished.
Kadyian skittered to a stop, trying hard to avoid the gaping hole in the floor.
"Persistant?" A voice mubled from the darkness. The tile before the hole fell away taking Kad with it.
An eerie howl emitted from Kadyian as he pointed his blades towards the bottom of the hole, leeching spirit energy from his surrounding. He looked like a bright blue, howling bolt of energy falling to the bottom.
The flash illuminated a flash of glasses from the shadows.
Kad hit the ground, impacting a huge crater and shattering some of the glass "Show yourself" his icy voice echoed off the walls.
"Now now, what are you planning?" A voice rang out, a pair of glasses reflecting some of the light from above.
Aizen?! Kadyian thought to himself before smiling "What does it matter if indeed i am planning anything at all Aizen?" his resurrected form welled just beneath the skin, though its' spirit energy was entirely concealed.
"Lord Aizen? No no," A pink haired figure with scholarly square rimmed glasses emerged fro the shadows as all the lights in the massive pillared room erupted into a blinding flare, "I am Szayel Aporro Granz."
Kadyian smiled "Well well well, the doctor is in the house"
Takato erupted from behind with a swift punch at the back of Szyayels head.
Szayel almost faded from the speed of the side step. "Ho, ho the negativos? Takato seisvo, -7 sound and vibration related attacks. Kaydian, the -5 negativo a power type with enhanced cero blasts. Delightful."
"You cannot analize what you cannot see or sense Szayel, and unfortunately for you i don't need to reveal anything to make use of cero" Kadyian smiled "and yes how delightful.....i was begining to get bored"
Szayel smiled pushing his glasses of his nose. "I shall enjoy dissecting you. What makes you rebel i wonder?" HIs multitude of fracciones appearing from the corners sorrounding the duo.
Takato, when you feel the spirit energy build that will be my realeased form being uncaged...when it does so; sheild yourself as the energy from releasing alon will be enough to destroy all his fracciones he telepathed "I don't recall anything about my allowing you to disect me....my my you are arrogant"
Takato was simply lounging on top of a pillar looking down. He stiffled a yawn without much interest.
Szayel chuckled. "Arrogant? No no, all my data concludes that i shouldnt have a problem, considering i really dont like fighting personally. I want to exsmine you. I will deal with you next Takato." The Fracciones started to gather together forming a bulky large arrancar. "I made all of these myself, all menos personally crafted into arrancer." The big one rushed foward with blinding speed for its size attempting to smash Kad.
Kadyian let out a wicked laugh "Rise, hand of sorrow!" the chamber filled with a deafening, blood curdling roar as intense, seering spirit energy reverberated off the floor in lethal shockwaves, ripping apart the Arrancar and menos around Szayel. When the smoke cleared, a dark figure loomed in the crater, a scythe and sheathed sword resting on its back, the preasure almost crushing.
"The battle driven rebel who plays their best hand first. Simple enough to figure out. Show me your capabilities." Szayel seemed un affected by the pressure. He caught a nearby fracciones and pulled his spirit enrgy straight from his chest in the form of a purple orb on which he causually munched.
"I still wear my mask, therefore i have yet to truely fight, but if you wish to fight me at my fully released stage then so be it" a deep voice boomed from the figure. He leeched spirit energy from the remaining Menos and fraccione that Szayel had around him, destroying them as his mask broke. A dark vortex of power surrounded him "You seem worthy of this form Espada, so make your move"
"Someone believes they are omnibenevolent." Szayel finished the orb. and paced foward. "Well come on then, im not one to go first."
Kadyian thought for but a split secound on what he wanted to do, before reappearing behind Szayel, slashing with his sword.
Szayel simply faded sliding to the left and away from the slice, just far enough to be out of reach for a spin follow up as well. "Hmm."
Kadyian smiled "Glad you don't dissapoint" he had only released one of his swords, the other was straining to be released but Kad would not allow it "Gran re cero" he said firing the lethal bolt at Szayel.
Szayel faced the blast with his palm negating the huge blast. "Im a data expert i had already anaylized your fight with yammy. Your like an open book." He flashed foward placing a hand on his shoulder.
Kadyian caught him by the neck "You overestimate your power Szayel" A emerald green lance of energy appeared in his hand "Lae relempago" he uttered tonelessly before thrusting the spear at Szayel.
"Not at all, sip" Szayel had forced his blade down his own throat. "Honestly..." When the smoke cleared Szayel stood off way to the left, his released form scuffed and his right wings and arm gone. "That took a good bit of energy to propel myself away from that, where did an reject like you learn that?"
"Does it matter?" he sighed dissmisivly "Cero oscuras" The entire room went dark before a jet black bolt of energy shot toward Szayel.
Now at five atp and discharging two thousand gigamps covering two hundred feet persecond, roll now! Szayel had already faded out of the way. He appeared not far off from Kad. "You might want to check your shoulder." He smiled thrusting one of his remaining wings at him.
Kadyian smiled, releasing his secound sword "Ketsuri Habishiro" he stood wreathed in flames, two blood red feathered wings extending from his body, a pillar of fire engulfing Szayel.
Szayel rebounded escaping before the flames closed around him. "I know every movment your body will make, thanks to my little freinds." He held up his remaining palm revieling tiny bugs in his hand.
Kadyian smiled, the bronze horns on his head firing each cero oscura in a flower pattern. The first fired before the secound fired in rapid sucession so that the first masked the firing of the secound.
Excellent Szayel dashed around avoid the series of blast mentally knowing where he was going to aim from the position of his body the bugs were sending back to him.
Kadyian was enjoying this, he hadn't released like this ever, and he was enjoying finally letting off at least some of the imense energy held back. A fire whip formed from the sword in his hand, he infused the whip with cero grande, arcing the whip at Szayel.
"Now i can have my toy." Szayel serounded his hand in his spirit energy catching the blazinf whip and lauched foward his wings aiming to swallow Kad.
Kadyian smiled i don't think so he though. Two Lanza de relempago appeared, one in each hand. He sent them flying at each wing before relocating to a safe distance away from ground zero.
Szayel wraped his remaining wings around himself and forced a great amount of energy into them to put up a defense.
Lanza impacted with a horrendous release of energy. Two massive holes where blown in the wall, the shapnel flying at hundreds of miles an hour. Kadyian Used his blood red wing to sheild himself.
Szayel stood, battered, only one wing left, bleeding profusely, and down on one knee in the center of the crater. "One last thing..." He smirked turning his head up and releasing a foutian of black ooze into the air, spraying everywhere.
Kadyian brought up a wall of fire around him, courtesy of his mostly unused sword. Sheathing both weapons, his blood red wings seeming to shine brighter the more blood that was spilt. Burning away the black ooze flung at him. He walked towards Szayel. Like an excecutioners weapon, Lanza extended from his hand once more. Standing a hundred yards from the badly wounded Arrancar he smiled, before throwing the deadly bolt. This time though, as a final precaution, he had combined two of the beams into one hyper lethal bolt.
Szayel smiled before the bolt hit him. "It seems my calculations were off, well at least I can never die..." The contact set off and explosion decimating the pillars and the floor. there was no trace of the arrancar when all was through.
Kadyian sealed his swords away, though he didn't do so for his released stage. Not even for the secound form.
Takato landed on his toes. "Well that was a nice fight."
Kadyian turned, his body visibly relaxing "Exhilerating, Takato, where are we headed to?" his voice was disembodied, almost deamonic in its' sound.
"Well i didnt really plan on falling down here, so now we have to make our way back up." He walked up to a crack in the wall the fight had made and struck it with his knuckle, it fell away to reviel a stairway upwards. "Well now."
Kadyian smiled "After you, and whach out for landmines"
The stairway spireld up, and up and up with no seeming end. There was no sense of time in the stairwell, it seemed as if an eternity passed before a glimmer of light could be seen up ahead. The two emerged into a narrow hall with another smaller flight of stairs with a figure outlined by light. He seemed smaller in stature than the two.
Uliqquriora stood in the center chamber, whaching the two come up with a passive glance "I cannot alow you to pass"
The reverberance of headstrong echoed from Takato's headphones. "And an emo like you will stop us?" He asked cocking an eyebrow.
Uliqquriora turned his unflinching gaze from Kadyian to Takato "How touching, a worm uttering such idle threats"
Takato smirked. "Worm? If you only knew." He started pacing foward. " Now let us by and go read twilight. With your complesion you should get along nicely with edward."
Uliqquriora turned his head half way to one side "As if i knew what that even was. Now will you listen to reason? Or will you make me destroy you?"
"I pick c. You get out of our way and we wont make the great Uliqquriora look like a rag doll." Takato was now only steps away from the spada.
Kadyian flinched at the name. Szayel was one thing, but Espada 4, one who could easily defeat him if he wasn't careful? That was another issue.
The Espada shook his head "Impossible, you do not even begin to comprehend the gap in our power if you so easily think you can defeat me"
Takato shrugged. "Gap...he..alright then. If you would like to Prove it then be my guest. Kad i got this one." Takato mimiced Uli standing relazed with his hands in his pockets.
Uliqquriora appeared soundlessly behind Takato, sending a nasty punch at his shoulder.
Takato was instantly leaned foward avoiding the punch in a frontflip bringing his heel up towards Uli's outsretched chin. His hands still secure in his pockets. The pace had picked up as through the fire and flames pounded from his headphones.
Uliqquriora caught Takato's foot "If you wish to fight me, then i sugest you fight with your full strengh" he fired a cero bolt from the hand that held his foot.
Kadyian whached the Espada you're simply playing Espada...show me your released form so that i might learn how or at least what to expect
Takato snickered as he flipped over landing gracefully, foot riding the crest of the blast. "And i you."
Uliqquriora glared at him "Very well" he straightened "Segundo, mercilelago" he summoning his secound full release form. Kadyians' eyes widened slightly careful what you get us stuck into Takato he was confident in his abilities, but he had only discovered his first ressurection when he broke his mask against Szayel....meaning Uli would be far more powerful.
"Well well. This is interesting. Grandioso mesoforte." Takato's headphones extended down the length of his body, down his arms and the back of his legs. His arms and upper chest were grey and almost plated looking ahile what resembled speaker amps were on the back and front of his hands, the back of the shoulders and on his heels. From the hole in his chest down was like normal except for the grey strip that ran down the back of his legs to his heels. "Its been a while sense i have done this. After you." Takato motioned.
All light vanished momentarily as Uli fired Cero oscuras.
Takato held both hands out as the massive cero's approached. He smiled as a deafening blast of sound exploded from his palms stopping the blasts a few feet in front of him. With the cover of darkness he sonidoed above Uli. Without hesitation he released a huge blast of soundwaves right above him with enough force to flatten a building.
Uli palmed the blast, discarding it at Kadyian who easily side stepped to avoid That was a blast powerful enough to make me bleed through my pesquisa....unless i manage to summon my fully awakened form which is finicky a best Kadyian had so sealed himself and his Zanpakuto that he had a third release....one that the birth cry alone would be enough to rip a hole in the dome...but it was hard to control, for Kadyian didn't like to give into the darker side of him that fueled the stage.
"You know the great thing about sound waves? Even if you block or redirect them they still dissrupt molecules." Takato landed on a toe, the speaker on his heel sounded propelling him foward at the speed of sound. He stopped inches from uli's chest, "Fortissimo!" A blast of sound erupted from his one hand, his other ready for defence.
"Don't you think i know that?" a voice came from behind him, Lanza de relempago in his hand. He cast the bolt, reappearing in a different place.
Takato's free hand released a burst stoping the attack as it pattered out. "Concerto!" Every amp on his body erupted, emitting in every direction. This attack was not ment to harm but to casue every being with hearing distance to become disoriented, dizzy, and nausious.
"That attack is good....if you are fighting Adjucas or a weaker arrancar...but for a resurrected Espada?" He fired Cero oscuras.
Kadyian grew nautious by the sound waves.
"No, it working like i planned." Takato pumped out a wave, catching the cero in the curve of of the wave redirecting, causing the cero's the round about and head right to where Uli had revieled himself from.
His eyes widened momentarily before he dodged it. Then he released fully. His spirit energy soared, and the preassure was stiffling "I did not become an Espada simply to fall by the likes of you" His huge black wings flared, dissipating the smoke around him. His sword appeared as a glowing, spear like blade.
"I didnt chose to be brought back! But given the chance you will not stand the way of me and my mortality!" Takato vanished, his molecules trveling faster that sound. His form appeared above Uli, his sonic boom erupting in the front, he had both hands on each side of ulis head. "Grandure finale!" He released 645 decibles off on each side of ulis head, (215 is a rocket ingine and will rupture the outer cortex of the left and right brain hemispheres)
"You're so loud" Uli's voice came from behind, as he threw another Lanza at Takato "Be careful now, you wouldn't want to summon the rest of the Espada here now would you?"
"Let them come." Takato's shoulders emitted propelling him offscew to the right avoiding the attack.
"How arrogant"
Takato's smile faded. An image of him on the mat, his hand raised, his opponent pissed. He smiles, a parent whispers "Arrogant ass." With a shake of his head he comes back. "Its not arrogance. I have a dream, and if i die by the hands of the espada then so be it. In life i was taught to go head on without letting up. Its not arrogance...it percerverance and determination."
Uli sighed, backing away from the stairwell leading up "Then i won't stop you...however be forwarned that i am not the most powerful, but i'll let you figure that out" he stepped to the side and dissapeared.
(Note for story- Takato has massive evasion and counter stats but defence and atack are low.)
Takato cocked an eyebrow and sealed his first form. "Well...thats easier than what i was expecting. I was looking foward to an apocolyptic battle."
"Be careful what you wish for, i am being called elsewhere....rioka have breached to dome, to what purpose and end has been tasked for me to investigate" with that Uli dissapeared.
Takato continued on down the hall, he had only one goal...the orb. If he died along the way then that was the second best option.
Kadyian followed, keeping an eye on the shadows for whoever might leap from them "So where is this orb supposed to be Takato?" his deep voice resonated through the hall.
Takato grimaced. "Right under Aizens feet." He knew that waltzing right into the main hall was a suicide run but as of the moment it was all he had. "So whos left?"
"As far as the Espada? Currently they are all engaged on missions for Aizen...either against Rioka or in the world of the living" Kadyian sealed both his forms, though he appeared as a normal Human being like an Espada.
Takato found the doorway he wanted. "No without further adue i give you Aizen." He opened the door in a grand fashion only reviel and empty chamber.
Ksdyian stepped carefully, surveying the room and searching for any spirit preassure of significance. His weapons where sheathed and sealed. For all intents and purposes he looked like a rioka in white kimmono robes and black sash.
Takato looked about puzzled. The door slid shut behind them sealing them in. Takato looked about frantically.
"So here is where my rejects have been hiding."
"Roll Call!!
Katsura's eyes shot open as they were sealed in, she swung around hand moving to her side, ready to pull out her weapon if she needed to block anything. She kept close to Takato.
Scarlet on the other hand just stood, tapping her left foot."Rejects". She didn't seem to amused."I fancy myself more of a perfected being".
"Hmph..amusing." Aizen stepped from a seemingly blank wall. His cold eyes expressionless. "I have been needing to clear you scraps from Haceo mundo for a while."
"Aizen". Katsura's eyes narrowed at him dangerously however she couldn't stop the tremble of fear ripping through her body, she damned herself as her legs shook a little.
Scarlett smiled at him."Hiya". She saluted coyly seemingly acting as if they weren't about to all be killed.
Aizen nodded. "Well well, good job scarlet." his tone oddly comforting.
Takato spun, his headphones emtting a sypmony of noise. "What the hell do you mean by that?"
Scarlet smirked and took a few steps towards Aizen, she paused by him and turned around, flicking her hair in an obnoxious manner."Please Takato, do you really think I would align myself with someone as powerless as you, you lot really are deluded huh"?
"You...traitor". Katsura stared in horror as the scene unfolded. "You...you played us from the beginning". She couldn't believe it, one of there own. "You bitch". She said with venom.
"Powerless? We negativos can destroy any espada this trash can pop out of his little play toy!" Takato stayed lavel even thoug his voice had raised a good number of decibles.
Aizen placed a hand on scarlets shoulder. "She mearly played for the winning team. You truely have no idea what it means to be an espada."
"Exactly, the sooner you learn this little vigilante mission of yours isn't going to work the better". She smiled in the sweetest manner which to Katsura was just the icing on the cake. Katsura suddenly removed her scythe and ran forwards aiming to bring it down and slice the blonde haired woman in half.
Aizen vanished. "Scarlet, eliminate these rogues and i might have a chair open for you, since yammy is gone. Heres is alittle assurance of you need back up." A tottering figure appeared from the shadows.....Wonderwies chasing a small hallow likw a child.
Takato followed Kats attack blasting to sound waves on either side of scarlet so she could not dodge.
"Gotcha". Scarlet said as she brought her metal fan up to clash with Katsura scythe, she threw the girl back with force. She then turned to face Takato. "Are we going to fight my darling". She battered her eye lashes.
As Katsura landed she spun to slice at Wonderwies. "Stupid brat".
Wonderweis caught the scythe with his fingertips and looked at Kat quizically. "Huh?" Was all he managed.
Takato flinched his eyes locking on Wonderwies. "I would thrash you here and now, but i do not want to excite that one over there. Of all the hallows....he is the only one im afraid of."
Katsura's mouth hung open a little as he caught such a blow, she tried to rip her scythe free from him and began to struggle."What..the..". She gritted her teeth and yanked back with force swinging her leg up to try and round house kick him.
Scarlet smiled and bowed her head, she suddenly threw it back and laughed loudly, almost a cackle."You always make me smile". Her laughter ran into her words making them a little sluured.
Th kick landed home, but to no effect. More surprised than anything wonderwies sat dane....eyes squinted and began to cry.
Takato thrust foward with his tuning blade the other stricking the ground giving off a high tone rnough to distort the equalibrium.
Katsura took a step back, she wrinkeled her mouth a little and lwoered her weapon, enough to still be able to use it but not enough to be threatening. She felt a small twinge of guilt in her stomach, how could this thing be as dangerous as Takato said. She raised a hand forwards to pat him on the head."Erhh..there there". She tried to soothe him, preparing to maybe have her hand biten.
Scarlet was suddenly behind her fan, the sound seemed to bounce of the fan and glide around it, the metal distoring it before it reached her. The fan then fell forward revealing Scarlet to be gone. She then appeared behind Takato ready to rip his throat out with her needle like fingers.
Kadyian managed a half smile, as if none of this surprised him. His biceps flexed as if from a sudden touch, only to relax as he walked towards the empty throne "Katsura, if you hesitate you will die" he said tonelessly "He is an Espada, and thus will die" he made no attempt to so much as move towards Scarlet or Wonderwies, only the empty throne where he imagined that acursed black orb to be.
Wonderwies scampered away into the shadows.
Scarlet landed behind Takato on he hands and feet in a crouched position, she then swung her leg up high in a skilled manner kicking Takato across the face. She then used her hands to propell herself upwards and bring her elbow down directly on Katsura's shoulder, disolaction it before coldly throwing the black haired girl aside. Katsura fell to the floor a few inchs from Takato himself. "Where did that come from"?
Takato wiped the blood from his lip. "Screw this. Grandioso mesoforte!" His calm demanor breaking for a second releasing his reccion, his headphones extended down the length of his body, down his arms and the back of his legs. His arms and chest were grey and almost plated looking with depressions that looked like speaker amps were on the back and front of his hands, the back of the shoulders and heels.
Katsura leapt up and watched as Takato got angry, she knew when to back off, but Scarlet really seemed to have been holding off on the power.
Scarlet just looked at him, her fan now in her hand again, she held it out, trying to red his movements.
Kadyians' eyes shone briefly. He appeared next to Takato "Need help?" he asked even toned "Are we sure the target is where it is supposed to be?"
"I have no idea, i didnt expect him to know we where coming. Try to open that panel thing. Kat blast her!" Takato dashed foward releasing a double blast of sound from his palms into the fan attempting to fracture it.
Kat did as she was told, she swished her fingers and sent a red blast towards Scarlett just ahead of Takato. Scarlet easily smacked away Katsuras attack, she used her fan as a sheild. The sound smacked into the fan making a crunch noise, the woman was sent skidding backwards, her heels dragging as she tried to keep balance. Soon her body hit the wall with such force it cracked.
"Now Kat her limbs!" Takato took a kamehmeha stance. "Fortisimo cannon!" He thrust his hands foward releasing a highly concentrated orb of sound that would expand explosivly on impact.
Kat nodded and charged forwards, she brought the scythe around swinging the giant blade with determination in her eyes. She heard what she thought was the sound of blood, but as the dust settled she saw only a small trickle on the wall. She blinked and then grunted as she was grabbed by the hair and swung into the opposing wall. Scarlet let her fall, one hand touching her cheek where a thin cut had been made gently tricking down."My face". She spoke in an empty manner.
Takato grunted a good bit of spirit pressure used in that last attack. With her back turned takato could use his finishing blast, but he probably couldnt do much after it was up to kat. He rushed foward with both arms outstretched on the side of scarlets head. "Grandure finale!" He released 645 decibles off on each side of Scarlets head, (215 is a rocket ingine and will rupture the outer cortex of the left and right brain hemispheres)
Scarlet screamed in pain as her head literally began to shake and thud with the power of his blow, it felt like her brain was going to explode and take out her skull. She crushed her eyes close and grinnded her teeth, pretty sure concerntrating on combating the power of the attack the only reason she still had a head right now. She could vaguley make out Kastura running at her ready to slice her head off. She quickly brought her foot up and kicked Katsura in the face before throwing both elbows back to try and get Takato off her.
Takato stumbled to the side, obviously tired. He placed a hand on a knee breathing heavily.
Scarlet fell forwards, hands now clutching her throbbing head, she tried to stand but wobbeled to the sides. Damn it she couldn't regain balance what had he done, he'd definatly hit something in her brain. She swung around aiming to kick Takato across the face, she missed slightly catching him across the chest instead. She quickly fled the scene, leaving Katsura unable to stand and only watch as the traitor got away. "Damn it". She was furious.
Kadyian walked almost lazily over to the wall "Well since i don't know where this panel thing is and i don't plan on making this a permanent residence" he hit the wall with such force that it caused the pannel door some distance down to fly off. He headed over to inspect the hidden panel.
Katsura walked over to Takato and bent down placing a hand on his shoulder."Takato, are you ok"? She tried to help him stand.
Scarlet got a decent distance away and leant against a wall, she cracked her neck and began to focus on regaining her sent of compusure, locating what part of her brain had been damanged. She hummed lightly and began to heal it, her voice distorting as she used one of her abillities.
About that time wonderweiss appeared from the shadows. Face paunched in a scowl. "Meany!" He screamed the battle cry shaking the entirity of haeceo mundo.
The panal fell, receiling an empty conpartment.
Scarlet winced as she heard the scream, it wasn't really what she needed right now but she had healed her head enough. She quickly headed off down the hall to inform Aizen that she had failed in getting rid of them, she rumbeled lowly, no doubt he wouldn't be impressed.
Katsura clamped a hand over her ears a little, what was that scream.
Kadyian exahaled slowlu "I grow tired of that brat, now where is he" his voice sounded bored. He glanced in irritation at the empty compartment.
Wonderweiss vanishd. Reapearing right in front of Kad both hands out in a chinld like push....with the power of a fleet of bulldozers.
Katsura swung around to watch Wonderweiss attack Kadyian. She ran forwards and brought her scyth down intending to lop his out stretched arms off.
One hand flicked away the blade the other still in attack. Wonderwiess scowled.
Kadyian appeared behind Wonderwiess "You're stronger than you look....however.." he sent a savage kick into his side.
Katsura was thrown to the side, she moved her feet quickyl and caught herself, she went for Wonderweiss just as Kadyian himself went to kick him. She brought the end of her scyth upwards to cut him for the other side, hopefully trapping him in.
The kick connected but he didnt even budge an inch. Instead he simply turned to look at Kad, brows arched. His free hand catching the scythe like a frisbe. He swung around aiming to smash Kat into kad.
Kat was thrown around, she instantly moved her legs into a crouched position so she hit Kad but more balanced on the side of him knowing he could easily stop the force and support her.
Kadyian smiled at Kat "Is this little whelp really going to make me fight? What's more do you think he's worth revealing my form to?"
Wonderweiss frowned his massive sword on his back clicking on the ground as he walked foward.
"I don't know, I really don't". Kat kicked and landed crouched bt Kadyian. She held her scythe close and narrowed her eyes."Maybe if we attack together we can catch him off gaurd".
Wonderweiss placed a finger to his lip as if asked a quastion. "No good." He managed almost like a toddler.
Kadyian sighed "How embarassing....an Espada brat is making me fight in my released stage....a stage i had used to kill Yammy...." black armor formed on his shoulders andd joints, both his swords where still sheathed "Cero Oscuras" the black bolt shot towards Wonderwiess not even Yammy could withstand that....no one can...not at this close of range
Wonderweiss sprinted head long into the attack, and emerged at Kad's hand delivering a punch into kads outstreched hand, clothes charred and body blackened.
Kadyian smiled "You're stronger than you're foppish behaviour would suggest" he retracted his hand with the punch delivered, grabbing Wonderwiess with his other hand "Cero, combine" a roiling ball of energy flew the short distance between Kads hand and Wonderwiess' shoulder. It had the strengh of two combined released Cero, and was nearly as powerful as Lanza relepago. What made it so deadly was that it acted like timed bomb....it only exploded once it had penetrated the opponents defences, and the damage was contained to the target.
Katsura kept back for a while to avoid the blast and not get caught in the cross fire, she herself held her hnd out in a form ready to cast a Cero. She quickly ran at the Espada and leapt into the air, just as Kadyian released his Cero she did from above, hopefully thinking he wouldn't have time to avoid both.
"Weis?" Wonderweiss looked up before he was completly enveloped in the blast, the ground around him caved, the light blinding the room. When the chaos subsided woderweiss lay on his back in the crater, bleeding profusly from many burn marks. "Weiss?" He struggled to his feet small legs trembling. "Bad!" He frowned reaching back and uncheathing his blade, his body enveloped in blue fire, his head and shoulders streching. Where a small child once stood now sat a monstrocity.
Katsura back off at once getting a good distance away, her wepoan held out with the large blade as a sheild, she kept her position defensive, it was so large she hardly doubted she could match its strength which meant she needed to figuire out its moves and then counter act them.
Kadyian sighed "So you have released your form, yet your form does not have its' mask broken" he stepped back alittle, the air around him cackled with a protective sheild.
Wonderwiess' long arms strechted aiming at the two as two black balls formed, the fire off in dual massive ceros at kad an kat.
Katsura leapt to the side flipping through the air, she landed near Wonderwiess' arm and spun her scythe, using the blade to slash across his arm, hopefully cutting it in two though judging from the size of the creature she had her doubts it would do such damage.
"Weiss?" His shoulder erupted as one of his many arms grasped the back of the scythe pole stopping before it came in contact with him.
Kad's sheild flickered, but held. His energy grew with his mounting desire for battle in his fully released form. But he kept it well in check....for the moment.
Katsura grunted as he caught ahold of the pole of her scythe, she slammed a cero blast at the hand so as to rip it free, she then quickly retreated backwards and landed crouched. She narrowed her eyes, quickly judging the movements."Kad there are too many arms, do you think you can get me an opening so I can get a head shot"?
He nodded "Sheild yourself" he straightened "Lanza del relempago!" one of the deadly Javalens appeared in his hand. He focused his mind to sheilding himself from the after blast "I hope this works" he appeared inches from Weiss, ramming the lance home into his chest with a horrific explosion.
Wonderweiss shrieked sounding effective, but as the light dimmed it could be seen that he had actually contained the blast by surrounding it with all of his arms. The hands now smoking he turned and launched the remaining dipelling energy at Kad.
Kadyian caught the blast bare handed. He thrust his free hand into Wonderwiess "Cero Oscura" he smiled wickedly.
Katsura had moved forwards at an alarming speed, keeping hidden and zipping under the arms, she then brought the egde of the scythe up to flick under Wonderweiss' chin aiming to sice his face in half.
The blast erupted in the hole in wonderweiss' chest as his neck was ripped open. He cried out as he fell back. At that instant Aizen appeared picking up the now untransformed wonderweiss pressing a black orb to his chest, all of his wounds began to fade away. "Now then, that was highly unpredicted."
Scarlet was close to Aizen, she has informed him oh their 'trouble' with Takato and the others. She narrowed her eyes, seemingly healed though remains of the dusts were still on her clothes.
Katsura had landed quite close to where Wonderweiss was, she instantly spun around to try and smack Aizen across the face with the end of her scythe, using it like a bludging instrument.
Aizen simply stopped the attack with the back of his wrist. "Pathetic, unfortunatly i need winderweiss in a bit. I know you are after the orb but i have plans for it as well. For now i am off Scarlet with the power you were given i hope you can take care of this irritation."
Katsura's eyes widened as he stopped her attack so effortlessly. She was about to move when a blur went passed her, she turned slowly, feeling a little weird. Scarlet was now behind her, her left hand covered in blood, she gave a small little wink to Katsura before the raven haired woman fell to the floor bleeding profusly from her chest that now had a rather large hole in it.
Kadyian grabbed Scarlet by the neck "You're begining to piss me off" a cero charged in his hand. His eyes flashed red at the corners. His heart wanted to release its' form with all it's will, yet Kad fought it back. It was still not time.
Takato was up to his feet now, still in his released form, music gently corsing through his headphones. He rushed over to Kat trying everything he could to stop the bleeding.
Kat was moaning in pain and biting back any screams she had, the edges of her rips were visible from the hole and blood poured out onto the floor.
Scarlet just smiled at Kaydian."And I'm beginning to get a little annoyed at taking blows to the head". She charged up a cero in her hand and slammed her palm across Kadyians face, ready to set it off any moment.
Kadyian absorbed his own Cero, grabbing Scarlets' hand and crushing it in his "That was foolish" his voice sound disembodied and deamonic "Cero Oscuras" he fired the bolt point blank into her hand.
Scarlets face didn't change as her hand was literally blown to pieces, she just watched with mild curioisty and then brought both legs up, using her heels to slam a hoof kick into Kadyains face. She flipped backwards and stared at her hand which was now missing up to the middle of her arm. She just gave it a mundane look. She began to hum lowly the song a little strange, slowly her hand began to reform, first the bone, then the muslce, arteries and veisn and finally skin. She smirked and held it out.
Kadyian looked hopelessly bored of the fight as he stepped back slightly from the kick. He hadn't even drawn either one of his swords.
Scarlet put her hands on her fists and blow her fringe out her face, she gave him a look of contempt. "How boring". She eyed Katsura and smirked. "Poor little thing".
Kadyian sighed, turning his back on Scarlet an walking towards Katsura.
Scarlet just watched them.
Katsura chocked out a gurgle and leant up holding a hand to her side."I'm alright".
Kadyian smiled "No you aren't...stay down an don't try to fight" he began fishing around the ruined compartments for medical supplies.
Katsura leant against the ruins of the wall which had been desolated earlier and grumbled. She watched him work all the while on Scarlet who was now yawning but not taking advantage of the fact Kadyian was preoccupied.
Kadyian had no reguard for Scarlet, and it was painfully obvious in his motions. He returned to Katsura, kneeling down "Now...you need any more help?" he lowered his voice to a whisper so only Kat could hear "or can i go destroy this bitch?" he smiled
Katsura smirked at him and gave him a thumbs up."Go for it".
Scarlet cracked her knuckles.
Kadyian smiled darkly "If Scarlet wants a fight so bad....this will be over soon" he gripped both his blades. He reappeared behind Scarlet, one blade caught fire, the other seemed to crack like a shell with glowing red blood showing through the cracks as they formed and reformed. With a roar he began slashing with both blades in moves that where near invisible such was their speed.
Scarlet flipped forwards, the blades caught the last few strands of her hair as she use her hands to flick off. With a twist she landed a few feet away and turned her head. Waiting for more.
Kadyian was unleashed, he began leeching off of Scarlets' spirit energy as energy arced from his hands. His eyes still did not shine white like they had when he fought Yammy, meaning he still controlled some aspect of himself. For now at least.
Scarlet narrowed her eyes and tried to contain as much of her energy as possible so as to attempt to conflict with his ability. She took on a stance, fingers out. Due to Scarlets smaller frame her movements relied on agility when using her hands, though her kicks were something to be feared. She would hit pressure points with her fingers to disable to power of attacks, then go in for vital points. She smirked and tilted her head. "Come on".
Kadyian sighed, the over lapping armor plates on his shoulders and around his neck shone jet black "blood lance" he whispered. The blood red sword shot forth a dark red lance that appeared solid just as it appeared immaterial and fluid. He outstretched the hand that held the sword, directing the attack to Scarlet.
She dug her heels into the ground, not moving yet but seemingly ready to.
The dark red lance suddenly became fluid, surrounding Scarlet on all sides almost like a sheild "Lanza del relempago" the bright blue lance formed in his hand as he threw it at Scarlet. It hit the blood lance surrounding her, only to amplify greatly before detonating within the tight confines of the sheild.
Scarlet kicked off the ground and flung upwards, through the blast, she flipped and hit the ceiling then kicking off to land away from the full explosion, her body now covered in slight burns and wounds from having to break through it. She dodge quickly towards Kadyian and di a round house kick to his face.
He caught her kick with a wicked smile "If you had tried that before i revealed my released form than that might have actually done somthing...no matter" A cero appeared in the hand that held her foot as he snapped it "Fare well traitor" he released to bolt of energy.
As the bolt hit her a smile crept over her face, it seem to engulf her completely, but as it settled Scarlet was no where to be seen, just her haughty laughter surrounding them."Youre too arrogant Kaydian".
"Is that so?" his face bore no emotion, and it was clear he hid none. His weapons where sheathed again.
"Yeah yeah". Scarlet kept herself hidden, unwilling to show herself at this point, god knows where she was.
He reached out, drawing her spirit energy to him "found you" a blood red cero arched in her direction.
