[Minoru P.o.V]

After unleashing my Windscar attack I watched as the Espada's reiatsu rose much higher than before, I could feel it pushing down on every part of my body. Suddenly Sato's bakudo began shaking violently as the Espada began to escape it. Just as he did so Windscar connected with him and I felt momentary relieve until the dust cleared and the Espada was standing, littered in small lacerations. The Espada suddenly burst out laughing before shouting 'NOW you guys are making this fun!! Show me some more shinigami! show me what your made of!' followed by another surge of his reiatsu before he vanished only to reappear a few times closer and closer.

As he approached I gathered the reiatsu I had stored into my blade for a Kidou spell, I caught sight of the Espada for a brief moment and noticed a golden glow to his palm. Lt. Sato then lashed out at the Espada's neck just a moment short of the buzz of sonido. As I began chanting I felt Taka's reiatsu surge before he loosed a large blade of darkness towards the Espada... no towards his cero. As I finished chanting Scattered Bones of beasts, spire, vermillion crystal, Steel wheel, If ‘tis moving its wind, If ‘tis still its sky, the tone of clanging spears fills the empty castle! I thrust my palm forward as a large yellow wave of energy blasting towards the Espada, as I called out Hado number sixty-three, Raikoho!. With a burst of shunpo I was back by Taka and Sato as I shifted out of bankai, sweat running down my face. 'Shit... why couldn't I hold it as long as normal...' I shifted my right foot forward as I entered a defensive position.

The Gran Rey Cero in my palm grew brighter and stead as tendrils of blue reiatsu sparked from it, I continued to sonido towards the shiningami as one used shunpo to get within striking range. I heard the shinigami shout something as he swung for my neck, the last thing I heard before the buzz of sonido was his blade cutting through where I had been just a moment ago. As I continued on not worrying about the first shinigami I felt a surge of reiatsu in the last two, the one with the fire zanpakuto shouted he was going to kill me before he launched a large shadowy blade towards my arm.

'Wait a moment... ah risky move he took' I thought to myself as I noticed the blade was actually aimed for the cero in my palm, quickly I shifted my weight the the right as I pulled my other hand and blades into the path of the shadowy blade. The blade collided with my hand and blades with an explosion as it slightly cut into the top of my hand, as I was thrown back slightly I noticed the third shinigami's reiatsu flare further.

From the distance I was it I could just make out that he was mumbling something before thrusting an empty palm towards me, suddenly a yellow blast of energy shot from his palm. I could tell the attack was stronger than most others they had used, probably due to the shinigami's bankai and whatever he had mumbled. With a snarl I thrust the hand that held my Gran Rey as I began trying to channel some of it's reiatsu back to myself. This one might actually hurt shinigami! Ahahaha, too bad I gotta end this now! I roared as I released my golden/blue gran rey, it took off in a straight small beem before enlarging to 1/2 of the size it would be if I had launched it earlier.

I began laughing loudly as I watched the two attacks near each other, until they collided and exploded. At that moment I realized one thing 'tch I'm going to take the brunt of this... damn shinigami actually gave me a good fight.' My laughter died down as the explosion rocked my body, the upper half of my uniform burning away immediately as the hierro covering my hands and forearms disintegrated. Then the explosion sent me rushing through the air as it burned my 'skin' before I finally came to a stop after crashing through a large amount of trees. Slowly I rose from the trench my body had made my scarf had burned from my neck and all that remained covering my upper body were burns, my rib like hierro plating and spots of missing flesh.

I looked forward as I tried to see through a large cloud of smoke, I couldn't tell if the shinigami had lived or not due to lingering reiatsu from the blast. As I began a quiet chuckle I bellowed out, SHINIGAMI! YOU BETTER BE ALIVE AFTER THAT FIGHT!. My voice carried an immense joy I felt from the fight, and probably held a hint of the instinct of my being. I felt a rush of adrenaline, I wanted to finish the fight, I wanted those foolish shinigami too survive.

[ooc: Veloz took the brunt of the explosion, meaning Minoru, Sato, and Taka would have most likely suffered burns and maybe broken bones if sent through the air.]

As Mutsuhito was about to make his move, the arrancar evaded once again. "What? Another sound clone!?" he exclaimed. Mutsuhito felt frustrated, seeing how he could only touch the man once, in fact, he wasn't too scratched up regardless of how long the fight raged! "You really are starting to piss me off..." he proclaimed. Minoru used his hado, colliding with gran rey cero. The outcome left a great cloud of smoke, which Mutsuhito was barely able to get him self out of. Now, the arrancar would face the wrath of Mutsuhito's bankai. He cut his palms on his sword, placing his hand over the flat of the blade. "BANKAI!" he screamed. Suddenly, a single piece of samurai armor appeared over his right shoulder. His zanpakuto didn't change. What a pathetic bankai- or so one would think. Mutsuhito rushed towards the arrancar. "Bakudo number 1: Sai!" he shouted, attempting to put binds on his opponent's arms. "Ryodan!" he shouted again, attempting to smash his blade into the arrancar.

[ooc: Oi Sato, Taka asked us not to post again till colbolt comes into the thread. And your post completely ignored the fact that a Hado 63 was fired out(while Minoru was in Bankai & with full incantation) and it collided with Veloz's Gran Rey(25-35% power) and blew up. While Veloz did take the brunt of the explosion Minoru, Taka and Sato would still suffer burns, maybe some missin skin, and if sent through the air by the explosion possible minor/average broken bones.]

(OOC: Just a reminder to everyone not to post in this thread until Colbolt/Amaya does.)

what a wonderful day it was in the human world? hahaha now that was an interesting thought that ran through a certain espada's mind. there was the sound of ripping from above as a Garganta began to open up as a white haired female walked over it it as it closed behind her. she stood high above the battle sighing as she sondio down towards the battle sighing "We leave you one mintue and the next you are destory shinigami...are you enjoying your fun? cause my fun was ruined when I had to come to keep you from destorying this world."Said the female standing beside him. She placed a hand on his arm smiling "Stand down and allow me to see who i can bring to our organization, i will give you a present when we get back if you will not attack no longer."She said subductively into veloz's ear. She let go of his arm moving towards the shinigami as she scanned the crowd. Colbolt had a sixth sense of who is wanting power or who has a darkened heart that she could get into and bring to her side. in a way, she was a recruiter to get considered 'fraccion'.

"Arnt you all an interesting bunch of shinigami."She commented adjusting her kimono top as the hollow hole on her cheast showed a bit form the wind moving her top some along with her skirt.

She slowly walked towards the group givi9ng her subductive smile heading towards the shinigami with the darkest hearts

['Subductive?' I'm not sure how you spell it where you come from, but in America, I believe the word you're looking for is 'seductive']

As he was about to strike, a new somewhat sultry new arrancar appeared. It was hard to tell, but the fact that she came through a garganta was a dead giveaway. He halted his attack as she 'complemented' the shinigami. "Interesting" she called them. Mutsuhito used shunpo, keeping his distance in case the two attacked- though judging from the fighting style the arrancar used, it would have been much easier to stay close. "What do you want?" Mutsuhito asked, keeping his zanpakuto ready in case the two strike. After going into bankai, he lost the arrancar's ability giving him a great disadvantage.

As Takami prepared for the Arrancar's next move, a Garganta opened. "Crap!" said Takami, thinking that reinforcements for the Arrancar were coming. The Arrancar that stepped out was a female who looked to be about 14, but Takami knew that she had to be far older than that. The next thing that Takami knew, she was standing next to the male Arrancar and telling him not to attack and then whispering stuff in his ear. Then, she began to walk toward Takami, Sato, and Minoru. She called them 'interesting Shinigami'. Heh. If that's not suspicious... thought Takami. For some reason, the female Arrancar's presence didn't feel threatening to Takami. Powerful, yes, but not threatening at all. Takami loosened his grip on his sword and lowered it and then spoke. "Who are you, and why have you come?" Takami asked the female Arrancar.

))I suck at spelling shut up))

Colbolt moved over to Takami. She extended a hand placing it on his heart closing her eyes. "You yearn for power...you wont find that within the shinigami..I have a solution to that if you are wishing to listen to what I have to say."she commented "I am Colbolt nanashi...I have come to grant the power you wish to seek. your heart is not of light, it has been darkend from this yearn for power...I can help you achieve this power, at the cost that..."She trailed off moving closer to where their cheast touch. she placed her hands on his shoulders and stood on her tiptoes "you must betray the shinigami...ipon this, i can help you become a powerful being."She commented before she sondio away to minour "if it isnt captain amaya's little lieutinent...you shouldnt have left your captain's and partner's side cause as we speak they are currently fighting for their lives and the lives of their squad."She commented stroking his cheeck gently before she then sondio once again, but back to a few feet infront of takami.

[Veloz P.o.V]

I watched as the dust from the combined explosion of the kido and my own weakened gran rey cero died down. I could see the three forms of the shinigami, it seemed that they were already preparing for what I may decide to do. I burst into a loud ragged laughter as I looked upon them, I was glad they had survived and that this fight would be able to continue. During my laughter I had missed the tear of a gargantua opening up in the sky above me. I was about to take off towards the shinigami when I suddenly felt a small hand on my arm, looking to my side I took in the sight of Colbolt, the fourth espada. She was complaining that she had be sent to retrieve me from me fun and that her own fun had been ruined. She then whispered into my ear saying, "Stand down and allow me to see who i can bring to our organization, i will give you a present when we get back if you will not attack no longer." With a sigh and a snarl I sheathed my blades behind my back and turned to find my scarf muttering, Tch, they would send you to stop my fight Colbolt...

As I went to retrieve the scarf I used to keep my mouth and number hidden I heard Colbolt using her enticing words to try and draw the shinigami to our side. Within a few moments I had found my burnt scarf, it was now 8" shorter. With a grumble I wrapped it around my mouth and neck while the rest flowed in the wind behind me. Using sonido I appeared back near Colbolt as she was speaking to the wind using shinigami. I had caught what she had said to him, "if it isnt captain amaya's little lieutinent...you shouldnt have left your captain's and partner's side cause as we speak they are currently fighting for their lives and the lives of their squad." It seemed Colbolt already knew this shinigami, perhaps she'd allow me some more fun I thought too myself.

Before the shinigami could react I was at Colbolt's side, reaching a hand out to rest on her shoulder I leaned into her back and began whispering into her ear. Colbolt mind if I have some fun with that shinigami you seem so familiar with?? He gave up quite a good fight as did the one you seem interested in. I stopped speaking only to laugh slightly before continuing to say, I doubt you'd let me have fun with both of them... so what do yah say Colbolt? If she would turn to look me in the face she would see a glimmer in my eyes, the predator within was rising to the surface.



[Minoru P.o.V]

As the dust from my Kido and the Cero's combined explosion died down I could see the espada standing his uniform was torn or burnt, and it seemed his was missing some of his weird armor. For a moment it seemed like we were all going to clash again, I wasn't sure if I could manage much longer of a fight. Suddenly there was another white haired figured next to him, it looked like a young girl but I knew that was just her appearance she seemed familiar to me. She appeared to be speaking to the Espada before leaning closer and speaking something into his ear.

Suddenly she approached Taka and spoke of his 'dark' heart as she put it, and spoke of how she could give him power. Damn lying arrancar.... I thought to myself, the female arrancar was trying to get Taka to betray us! I realized quickly. I was about to act and attack her when she was suddenly infront of me and spoke of Captain Amaya and Amelia... as she finished speaking she reached a hand out to stroke my cheek. I wanted to move away from her touch but found myself unable to, she then vanished with a buzz and reappeared feet from Taka. Damnit.. Get away from him damn arrancar! My anger had gotten to me after she had spoke of Taka's betrayal and then Captain Amaya. Brandishing both of my blades I lunged at her intent to slice an X across her upper body. As I lunged for her I completely missed the Espada appearing behind her once again..

"My name is Colbolt Nanashi"

That was the female Arrancar's name. Takami listened as Colbolt explained her reason for being here.
He was surprised. How was it that Colbolt could always tell what he was thinking? How did she know what Takami wanted? That was when Colbolt's seduction powers began to kick in. Takami had no idea what to do at first. His heart was beating erratically and he felt two sides of him. One side said: "The Arrancar is lying! Come to your common sense!" The other side said: "Join the Arrancar! You heard what she said! You could gain great power." The second side became stronger in him until it took over his whole body. The time had come. Takami made his decision. "I will betray the Shinigami!" said Takami. That was when Minoru tried to attack Colbolt. Minoru's slash missed even as the male Arrancar appeared behind Colbolt. Takami committed his actual act of betrayal, doing a Shunpo and appearing in front of Minoru, attempting to slash him across the chest.
