Fandom Bleach: Hell Unleashed

[CrystalFalls]

Choumi blossomed into a cloud of butterflies the moment the first seed hit her. She sighed tiredly. Apparently a captain and a fukutaichou on site would not be keeping her from fighting, or at least dodging for the matter. Reappearing a distance away, the cloud of butterflies whirled around her before seemingly dissolving into her clothes. "Can't you please leave the bystander out of this?" she muttered underneath her breath, glancing at the hollow which was trapped by the vines. There was nothing she could do, since she didn't want to leave herself defenseless just yet.

 

[WrittenHollowness]

Tengoku faded through the bundle of vines with no effort at all. Ryujii hopped back, keeping in mind to protect Choumi-chan. He stared down his new opponent, eyes gleaming with disdain. The fact that their lot would stoop so low as to attack them from behind was dishonorable. Not surprising, but back handed all the same. Ryujii shifted into the offensive and Tengoku gleamed evanescently against the light.


"This is futile." he sighed, charging toward both of his opponents at the same time.

 

[backlash]

James had a huge smile upon his face after guarding against the shinigami's blade during their first encounter. Seeing the shinigami change into an offensive stance and then charge at them made his wish come true.


"Stand back, I will take this one head on." James said as he leaped at the shinigami and clenched his fist tightly as he waited for the precise moment to attack.


James ran as fast as he could, hoping to make the impact strong enough to rattle the buildings around them.

 

[WrittenHollowness]

Ryujii's impact with the opponent emitted a wave that made the buildings rattle just a bit. He pulled back and swung through the guard that was out up, trying to find purchase on the man. Tengoku eased through the other man's own blade, becoming the sharp sword when it made contact with his flesh. Ryujii allowed himself a tenative smirk, for it seemed that the blow would hit the arrogant fool.

 

[backlash]

The moment of impact surely rattled the buildings around the two men but it was in his favor, for his weapon utilized the force of the impact.


"You stupid shinigami. You do not understand." James spoke out as he seen the man's blade turn ghostly and come straight for him.


Leaping back but being not before the blade cut across his chest, leaving a shallow cut. Exhaling his breath through his nose, James looked upon the man as he slid to a stop.


"My weapon here takes and absorbs kinetic energy. There is nothing you can hit me with that I will not be able to redirect back at you." James spoke as he clenched his armored fists.


The armor around his arms began to move and grow more and more across his body, slowly making its way to the wound upon his chest.

 

[PyroWarriorZ]

Liron smirked at the girls silly comment of being a bystander, she was a Shinigami after him and his friend. She was no bystander.


"Don't worry, I have just the bullet for bugs!" He fired one of his special bullets towards Choumi, instead of growing into vines it would grow into a giant venus like flytrap that would devour her butterflies. It was a powerful technique that could even absorb attacks and reiatsu attacks, so it would even able to absorb and devour her special butterflies if it caught them.

 

[WrittenHollowness]

"No, I think it is you who does not understand." Ryujii stated, pointing his zanpaktou's edge toward the man.


"Let me introduce you to Tekgoku no Kyūseishu. He is an odd sword, always wanting to become better. Just like his owner. But the fact that pertains to you is that he rises above the realm of this world to cut you. You ought to have been able to see that from looking at him, alone." Ryujii altered his stance, ready to make a decisive blow.


"So, no matter how much bulk you put on, I will cut you. I will rise above and defeat you with the same intent as my sword. For it is my duty." He looked the man in his eyes, no trace of fear within his own. "Come forth and die by my hand." he whispered, blood beginning to simmer in the thrill of death.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Tetsu sensed the familiar reiatsu of the other criminal and turned around slowly to notice the seed attack coming at him. He was slightly distracted by the conversation, but he still felt like it was too much effort to just move out of the way. "Bakudo #81, Danku." he commanded quickly as the splitting void made contact with seed. Said seed exploded into a plethora of thick vinery, most of it being blocked by the kidō spell. Tetsu flash steps out the way as some of the thorns tried to work their way around the shield. "You think it's a good idea to ignore your opponent? Alright now, don't blame me if you get caught off guard." He called out at his pursuer while he fired another attack at Choumi. Tetsu rushes after Choumi, hoping that he'd be able to stop the attack in time. The shot was surprisingly fast and he found himself coming up short of reaching her in time. He cut his losses and slung his left arm forward. "Bakudo #63 Sajosabaku!" He shouted as the golden arrow like attack spiraled outward until it made contact with the seed attack. The seed split in half, just as it formed into its Venus flytrap form, just a few feet away from Choumi.

 

[Xenomorphic]

"Fun..." Subara spit, breaking himself free from his vine-like wrapping thanks to the previous cutting session he gave them with his serrated body plating. Looking around at the wrappings now on the floor and all the Shinigami that took their time to show up, he moved his slit-like vision to the fruit growing above him. There were punctures in his body, but nothing serious to say the least. These people were obviously extremely wanted criminals, so he did his bet to try and not interfere, lest he catch some unneeded attention from one of the other Shinigami. But he thought it'd be best to at least take care of that fruit while the other one was busy trying to help out his friend. It's the least he could do for the others, for their time as a distraction.

 

[CrystalFalls]

Choumi internally rolled her eyes. Men. Always feeling the need to act superior than each other. And the fact that most people forgot that her blade dissolved with her when she moved. She could easily slice through those vines when she moved to another place, as the butterflies formed by her blade were just as sharp end deadly as the real thing. "Bugs," she commented dryly, haven't even flinched at the incoming attack. "If butterflies are simply bugs, then what does that make your vines? Weeds?"

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Tetsu gradually slid to halt, landing a few feet away from Choumi. Once he stood back up to his usually casual posture, he put an arm on his hip, his lazy eyes secretly staring bullets at his opponent in case he tried something again. His attention went to Choumi after she spoke. "Your welcome.." He snapped incredulously, but he kept those words inside his head. Simple common curtesy was a pet-peeve of his. He has the capacity to be diplomatic whenever he can, but sometimes those around him don't seem to appreciate that. Similar thoughts swirled in the back of his head, all of it showing on one his eyebrows that twitched frequently while he waited for his opponent to attack him. He also made an effort to glance over his lieutenant's fight, making sure that the enemy wasn't too powerful for him to handle.

 

[CrystalFalls]

Choumi bowed towards Tetsu. "Please excuse my rudeness, Hikage-taichou. I tend to over-react to insults against my zanpakutou." She shot at glare at Liron, the butterflies flying around her. Getting taunted on her fighting style by the Eleventh Division was one thing, but calling butterflies bugs or plainly insulting her shikai was another. She'd sent quite a few Eleventh Division members being carried off to the Fourth Division for that fact, no matter how friendly she usually was.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Tetsu smiled contently and waved away the apology with a flipped hand. "Oh don't worry about it, I know the same feeling." he solemnly replied. The majority of everyone in soul society have seldom seen his bankai, shikai, or even his blade in action, those who have had chosen to not speak about it. He valued efficiency in kidō over relying on his blade or physical strength. There were plenty of strong fighters in soul society already and kidō wasn't a common skill most shinigami mastered. This time, Tetsu focused his attention on his opponent, now prepared to go on the offensive. "I just love it when you get underestimated don't you?" he asked rhetorically, his hands moving out in front of him, palms out in a different battle stance; one he used when he performed kidō attacks in excess. Without much delay, Tetsu decided to make the first move, rushing at his opponent with great speed he hadn't exercised before. Midway he stopped and strafed around him in a circle waiting for him to react.

 

[backlash]

"That is the thing. No matter how much you try to cut me, your blade will still carry kinetic energy. I will use this against you. So cone at me with all you have!" James said as he watched the shinigami's sword.


Taking in a deep breath, James' armor began to crawl all over his body making his skin a gun metal grey in color. Leaping from his spot, he was able to cover some good amount of ground before placing his right foot upon the ground and with a twist of his foot, he vanished and appeared on the right of the man, about 50 feet from him.


"Let's see how good you really are with that pointless sword of yours." James spoke out, wanting to get the man riled up.

 

[PyroWarriorZ]

Liron just smirked.


"Wow, you are just as useless and sad as your bugs if you need help just to stop my 'weeds'." He laughed at the little girl, as he aimed Taneju at her, but then chose to point it down and fired three entirely new bullets, one near Choumi, one near Tetsu and one near Ryuuji. All three seeds immediately began to grow into giant beautiful flowers that bloomed as they released a strange gas like pollen, that was breathed onto the Shinigami as it mixed in with the air they were breathing in without warning.


Meanwhile Taneju's fruit was still growing on the tree near Subara, growing larger with each moment as it expanded and contracted, revealing some volatile nature within it. No one could be sure when it would be done growing and what would be the consequences.

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Tetsu couldn't stop from inhaling some of the gas, but he covered up his mouth as he saw the flower's gas from behind him. He increased his pace, now somewhere slightly behind Liron's left. The heels of his feet slid against the invisible sky as he shot his hand out again in a circular motion. "Hadō #58, Tenran!" the motion of his hand formed a whirling disc of wind, the attack forming a cone shaped tornado after his other hand made contact to its center. This was aimed at the seed-but-now-flower attack, causing some of the gases to reverse direction. The hand he casted with then shot out at Liron as he charged at him full speed this time. "Hadō #4 Byakurai" his hand forming a pointed finger that protruded a blue beam of energy at his opponent.

 

[CrystalFalls]

Choumi disappeared in a vortex of butterflies as their opponent shot seeds at them. The dodging was getting a little repetitive, but having done the same thing for centuries allowed her to endure the boredom somewhat. She reappeared in midair, intermediately powering her feet with reiatsu, forming a platform which she can step on. "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south! Hadō #31. Shakkahō!" She gathered a ball of red energy in front of her palms, taking aim at the opponent. The spell shot out in a pillar of light, with the amount of energy she charged into the spell.

 

[Noah]

Itsuki quickly ran towards the Guardian as it grabbed Torres. 'Crap' Itsuki thought to himself. Leave it to Torres to get into a sticky situation. Itsuki wasn't sure how well Kido would work on these Guardians, but he was about to find out. "Bakudo no. 62 Hyapporankan!" Itsuki threw forward hundreds of Kido poles towards the Guardian, hopefully immobilizing it and preventing it from crushing Torres further. "Backup No. 4 Hainawa!" Itsuki sent a rope-like Kido spell to wrap around Torres, and pull him free from the grip of the giant monster.

 

[PyroWarriorZ]

The rods slowly pulled the Guardian's hand apart, bu they were already shattering, It's strength was uncomparable, however those few seconds pulled apart was a good enough opportunity for Itsuki to yank Torres out and free him as he skidded out just as the Guardian's pure strength obliterated his hado spells.


"Stand back and get out here, I will use a Cero to distract it! Jump to the lower level, I'll join you right after!" Torres began charging a cero in his hand as he fired off the crimson beam into the Guardian's face.


--------------------------------------------


Liron saw all the incoming attacks, not having enough time to dodge he fired Taneju at the ground, causing vines to grow all around him create a makeshift barrier as both spells hit, the explosion burning the vines as Liron was sent flying back, slightly singed as he skidded along the ground.


However there was still a smile on his face, even if his flowers were destroyed, the damage was still done. He had only needed to breathe in the spores, which they had all done. Spores were multiplying in all their bodies and soon their effect would be revealed.....

 

[WrittenHollowness]

"Whatever. Show off." Ryujii scoffed as he charged forward again, aiming slashing blows that would sinkthrough the armor and hit the skin. As tough as the opponent seemed on the outside, that was all there was to him. And the fact that Ryujii's blade faded through the armor without hitting it was his best advantage. His zanpaktou was so sophisticated in that right, functioning as if it were a ghost. "

 

[Krystael]

Kish had been about to move finally, to claw her mask down, but Itsuki had managed to get Torres free. The teenager nodded, her hand falling from her face as she started to run towards the edge of the platform, "You better be right behind us!" Pulling Itsuki along more out of urgency to get away from the Guardian then anything else, she jumped over the edge.


Oh thank Kami for being a shinigami because no human would be able to survive this fall. She hadn't thought or looked before she jumped off the side, and all she saw below her was a fast rising apparent second layer of He'll. It made her wonder just how deep it went....

 

[EtherealDarkling]

Tetsu's hands clasped together as Liron took the blows and flew, moving while he did so. Without hesitation he took his opportunity to disable his enemy. He slowed to halt as he declared the incantation.


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


Tetsu raises his clasped fists and slams them onto the invisible walkway in the sky.


"Bakudō #75 Gochūtekkan!"


Five thick metal pillars connected by a chain anchored itself from the skies and each threatened to crush him from each of Liron's limbs, including his back. Tetsu took several slow breaths after this so that he recover from the amount of energy he expelled while he waited.

 

[Noah]

Itsuki heard sighed in relief to see that Torres was mostly unharmed and was saved from the Guardian. However the Kido wore off already. Before Itsuki could say anything, he felt himself get pulled by Kishi, a pleasure he has experienced a few times before. Itsuki let a small yelp out as he suddenly felt like falling, upon that he was. Seeing the fast approaching second level of Hell, Itsuki thrust his hand forward towards the ground, "Bakudo no. 37 Tsuriboshi!" A star shaped mass of spiritual energy appeared on a stone lily, safely comforting the fall of Kishi and Itsuki. "You all right Kishi?" The Shinigami asked.

 

[backlash]

There off in the distance stood three figures. They watched the shinigami fall from the sky before landing within one of the stone lotus'. Pete looked upon the beings while he spoke to the men next to him.


"Should I go deal with them?" Pete asked as he took a step forward.


"No. How about we let the recruit take this one." Jack spoke out as he placed his hand upon the back of the third man.


With a grunt, the third man exhaled through his nose and leaped straight up into the air. His speed was extraordinary. Wings stretched from his spine and stretched themselves out allowing the man to glide to the destination. The mask upon his face was about 3/4 formed and the remaining section showed the face of Riyoshi.


~~~~~~~~


James had brought his hand up to block the first strike but it was no good. It was as he said, the blade was not upon this realm unless it needed to be. The blade had passed through the armor and sliced his hand open. Leaping back to dodge the remainder of the attacks, James needed to keep his distance until he could get a clean shot in on the shinigami. That is when he had a bad feeling. Looking over at Liron's location, James took off in the fastest movement he has ever done, he at this point was rivaling flash step. He needed to save his comrade from being hit by those columns.


"Hold on boss." James spoke out as his kinetic energy rose with his speed.


He was wanting to strike the columns before they got to Liron in the hope that if he was not able to destroy the attack, he could divert them just enough to where his friend could dodge the attack.

 

[PyroWarriorZ]

Torres' Cero hit spot on as it hit the Guardian's face, exploding in a firey blast, as the smoke faded the Guardian stood unscathed. Torres could not believe his eyes, it took his Cero with a mark, that was impossible. He had never seen anything do that...


As it reached out for him again, he jumped off, following Kishi and Itsuki, using Bala fired at the ground to slow his speed and land without too much damage.


"I can sense Riyoshi ahead with my Pesquisa. Let's go kill!" he told to Kishi and Itsuki, the overwhelming aggressiveness apparent in his voice. He charged forward using Sonido towards Riyoshi and those around him, he could sense they weren't that strong. To be honest, he was expecting more from Hell....


Meanwhile, watching from afar stood the three shadowy figures watching the soon to occur encounter.


"Wow, look at that guys, they came for him after all." She smiled to herself, as he hands gently strummed against the strings.


"Remember, if we want to use their exit, we are going to have to time this perfectly. We don't interfere, we wait for them to take "friend" back. Besides, this will be easy for them, they should be able to cut these guys down to size without much effort..." She let out a giggle, as her chains rattled.


-----------------------------------------


Liron smirked as the attacks came, suddenly the columns shook and cracked, slowing down just enough for James to attack them causing them to shatter, a feat normally impossible. It was then the three Shinigami would feel it, something was wrong with their reiatsu. It was becoming unstable.


Liron lifted himself up as he looked to James.


"No need to worry.... they've all already inhaled Taneju's spores. You know what that means, the spores within their blood stream are multiplying and attaching to their cells distrupting their reiatsu, weakening not only their bodies but all messing up any spells or techniques they try to do." He patted James one the shoulder.


"I've prepared a surprise for them back there, help me lead them to it." He winked as he mocked the Shinigami with a call and told them to follow.


"Come get us Shinigami, you worthless sheep!" With that he started retreating back to the trees where he had fought the Hollow he believed he had killed.
