LOCK PLEASE.

[Zexaeon]

Gran nodded at Mateo, bowing to Lucas and Mileya before following the Espada-to-be into the portal he had crafted into the World of the Living.

 

"Is something bothering you?" he asked. "I remember yesterday, you were concerned about a Hollow you thought you sensed."

 

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

 

Mileya Cupid approached the large chamber of the King, bowing to every guard she passed, as much as it bothered her to do so. Just pretend to be respectful she told herself.

 

Eventually, she came to the great doors that would lead into the King's chambers. Two guards stood before them. "Excuse me, sirs. I am Mileya Cupid, fraccion to Lucas Angel, the Cuatra Espada. I come on his behalf to give news to the king. May I enter?"

[Guest]

"The reason for that is because I made one of the Shinigami's captains into a hollow and since then I have felt a somewhat weird connection with her." Mateo stepped out of the portal into the center of Karakura town to seem that the town seemed somewhat calm. The Arrancar rifted his fingers through his jagged hair and tried to sense what had reitsu nearby. "It seems like the Shinigami have the same numbers since we left but theres also three other pressences that don't seem to fit their kind."

[4tutoralcom]

Onie,"I was born here demon, please don't disturb me." The chain was on its last link. Onie's mask was starting to form. Onie was talking to his hollow,"listen inner Hollow, with my Shinigami powers i could destroy it, but you can't alone, It is to late for me to go back to a Shinigami, combine with me!"

 

the inner hollows saw his options,"alright Onie you win, we will combine!"

 

A extremely large amount of Spiritual Pressure came out of Onie's body, and caused dust to rise up, when the dust disappeared his Zanpakutōs returned, Onie was reborn a new, proof with the Hollow mask on his face, he was no longer a Shinigami.

 

Onie,"Know demon what do you want."

[Haitaku]

Sai finally woke up.

 

"Captain Kuchiki! What happened to you?"

 

He got up, then fell back due to his own injuries. Still, he was more worried for the Captain, because he knew that Byakuya was more useful than he was.

 

"When did you get here?"

[Dad]

The guards at the door gave brief responses. "You have but 3 minutes to speak with the King. Any longer, and you will be stowed away for high treason." The guards moved aside, one left, and one right, opening the door for Mileya to pass.

 

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

 

Dura was shocked, and completely insulted by the Shinigami's insolence, and lack of respect to the great black demon. "Do you know who I am Shinigami? I alone have granted you the powers to travel here, the abilities of a Vaizard, and the cunning of an Espada. For you to question me will result in your death. Do not speak unless you are spoken to."

 

Dura's fierce claws sank into the grown beneath him, melting it at the touch. "It is I Shinigami, who desires to know what you want. Speak quickly, because I do not have time to waste with you."

[Zexaeon]

The silence in the room was nerve-wrecking. Most of the inhabitants were simply watching Orihime as she applied her Reversal of Fate to Shina. Byakuya was quite solemn.

 

Sai broke that silence with his awakening, asking Kuchiki what had happened to him. "Do not concern yourself. It is nothing." he responded, never taking his eyes off of his sleeping fukutaichou.

 

 

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

 

Shina was drifting. Drifting through Karakura town. Rather than her uniform, she could see she was wearing a simple white summer dress, as though she had just come from the beach.

 

"Where am I?" she asked herself. Well, she could tell where she was. She just didn't know exactly where in Karakura. What was weird was the lack of people. There was no one around. And she was flying through the city, backwards, on her back and looking at the sky. "What is this?"

 

She found herself in front of some weird, ruined building. Inside, she could see coils. A giant snake. She walked closer to it. She felt drawn to it. A thin, glowing thread was tied around the snake's neck, and it stretched out, going all the way to Shina, tieing itself around her wrist.

 

The snake was pulling her closer, with that thread. A thread from Kagetsuki.

 

"Jo?"

 

And the world went black for her again.

 

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

 

Byakuya watched as Shina seemed to stir briefly under the Orange Barrier, but went still once more.

 

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

 

Mileya bowed. "Thank you, sirs." she stated, rushing inside.

 

The King sat upon his throne, appearing to be doing nothing in particular. "Your majesty." she stated, dropping to her knees. "I have urgent news! Please, lend me ear - I come on behalf of my master, Lucas. Majesty, a rebellion is underway! Keyonshi, the hollow you so graciously created, has gone into Karakura Town! My master, as well as three other members of the Espada have all reported that they found out awful news of treachery; Keyonshi has been in league with the Shinigami! That's why they didn't kill him, and the Ichigo Kurosaki he killed was a fake! He's taken a small army of Hollows, and they plan on attacking tomorrow, my Lord. I also have come to inform you that your Son, Kiron, has been suspecting Keyonshi of this for some time, but for the sake of appearances, so as to not look suspicious, he has been acting insubordinately to you!

 

Please majesty, you must believe the words I tell you! We must be ready to fight back tomorrow - the invasion comes then!"

 

Se recited her lines perfectly. Keyonshi was gone, as well as a small army of Hollow, all klled by the Espada. The king would not know they were dead, however.

OOC: I edited my post, Zaraki. ^^

[Guest]

"Well Gran I don't know about you but I'm going to walk around for about a hour or two, just meet me back here or so or if you feel my reitsu rises." Mateo waved to Gran as he walked towards a group of people with reitsu, either way he was bond to find a hollow or someone to make into one. //I wonder if anyone besides her have become hollows since yesterday, it would be good to get allies for Lucas anyways so looking shouldn't hurt.//

[Zexaeon]

Gran nodded. "I don't have much to do - I'll go with you. Oh, and when we go back to the Seireitei, Lucas-sama said we should look beat up. He's going to tell the king a story about how we have gone to stop a rebellion, so we should come back looking worse for wear, you know?" the arrancar explained, kicking a stone lazily as he followed Mateo.

[Guest]

"No problems here man, we could just beat each other up before we go back." The arrancar yawned softly, he was already tired from his transformation today along with using one of his strongest techniques so he wasn't feeling the best. "So I sense three non Shinigamis in the area, one is pretty close to here while the other two are in complete opposite directions from each other." //It figures the former Shinigami is the closest....//

[Signosis]

Jo felt a surge inside her, compelling her to slither off in one direction, like a compass.

 

"Master!" Jo said, gleefully, with her Hollow. She willed her reitsu to raise, so she could identify her; possibly other people, as her way of saying goodbye.

[Zexaeon]

"We could do that, but it would hurt a bit. Oh well, it probably can't be helped. So, should we go after the closest one, then? And where are the other two you are sensing?" he asked curiously. Nearby, some childen were playig ball in the park. He thought it was pretty peaceful. Another reason he disliked the current King - he wanted to kill the Shinigami, no matter what the cost, and forced them from their home in doing so.

 

Gran could agree with defeating the Shinigami, but he didn't like the idea of killing innocent humans - by fighting with Karakura as the battlefield, several humans who didn't deserve it were dying all the time. It wasn't fair. Humans were only supposed to die when a Hollow needed to eat. Killing them for no reason wasn't right.

 

That's why he wanted to overthrow the King, and invite the Shinigami into the Seireitei to finsih their fight there, so that no one would be harmed if they weren't involved.

[Dad]

The King was not pleased. "What?! A treason?! In my own court guards?! Find Keyonshi, and bring me his head by any means necessary!" The King sat upright, and bolted a look towards the chamber gates behind him.

 

"Bring me Kiron for questioning!" he ordered. "He then turned to Mileya. "And my Espada, I want them placed in immediate action, dispersed throughout my Kingdom immediately. Any Shinigami are to be killed on sight!" His voice was shaking with fear, and his hands shivering.

 

"Now! Do it now!" he commanded. The moon this night was very cold, settling in the center of the sky, plaguing the air with a scent of betrayal, lust, fear, and most of all, hate.

 

Kiron was taken from his cell behind the King's chambers, and two loud tumps echoed through the hallways.

 

It was about to begin.

[Guest]

"Well if I remember Karakura right one seems to be at a school and the other at a store of sorts, as for the closest one I have a feeling that she will come to us if we just wait here." The arrancar looked at the children playing, and remembered back to when he was a human child. //It's sad that the King would dare damage theses kids just to kill the Shinigami, when they do theres a high chance a hollow would devour them anyways.//

[Haitaku]

Sai laid back thinking. He then turned his head to the others in the room.

 

"What happened yesterday?"

 

He asked this in a very depressed tone, then continued on with the same sad aura in his voice.

 

"I feel so useless. Everyone is hurt, and i feel i could have done more. Jo would have been fine, Ichigo could still be here, everyone would just be fine. And, where is Rai?"

[Zexaeon]

Mileya hastily bowed. "Right away, majesty!" she cried, bolting from the room in apparent fear.

 

-

 

Lucas had gathered together all eight of the other Espada in his quarters - Despite being only the fourth, he was usually the one in charge, due to the fact that the Tercera Espada was quite childish, while the Primera Espada wasn't interested in leading.

 

"Alright everyone, Mileya has gone to inform the king of "Keyonshi's Rebellion". He's on edge now, and will likely release his son as Kiron "Suspecyed Keyonshi all along." We're likely to be assembled and sent on patrol now - you all know your jobs.

 

When the Shinigami invade, as per Eric's report, the Guard will be too busy fending them off to care about anything else, especially since the King has ordered the death of all Shinigami. Kiron will give the signal then, and we are to move in and kill the King's guard. The King himself will be handled by Lord Kiron.

 

We will then announce the shift in power - the Shinigami are very likely to retreat when they learn of what has happened, as they will have to rethink a new battle plan. However, if they do NOT retreat...well, we will all simply have to deal with them."

 

 

The collection of Espada, all one through nine with the exception the Segunda (as Mateo had yet to be promoted) all nodded and smiled. In a matter of hours, things were going shift.

[Signosis]

She found herself back at the playground she had spent the night at, but now it had been occupied by human kids. Innocent, little brats.

Jo blinked, now realizing that she really never did like little kids, and the only person she would consider liking would be Yachiru--but she wasn't a kid. Jo slithered forward warily, looking around the place--there, she found two others, ones...like her, only...more powerful. As she looked the man with black hair with purple highlights and red eyes, she instantly darted forward, but slowed as she got closer. Her scarlet and orange eyes were filled with curiousity as she stared at him.

 

"Ma...ster?" Jo said, slowly, eagerly.

[Guest]

"That's right, it seems that you have already transformed into a hollow after a day. Tell me how does it feel to be a hollow instead of a shinigami?" Mateo patted Jo on the head, it would be smart to be nice to the snake hollow since she already called him master and that could also lead to her becoming one of his fraccion if he became a espada. "Also do you have a name?"

[Haitaku]

Sai waited intently for a reply, now sitting up.

 

"Well?"

[4tutoralcom]

onie,"645 years a boy was born down here. 635 years ago that same boy was said by the soul society to be to pure to live in hell, and they took him away form his family. 19 years later that same boy became a Shinigami, but never allied with the Gotei 13. He lived in the place closest thing to hell, Hueco Mundo, 300 years later that same boy he tried to return to hell to see his family; the soul society stooped him."

 

onies voice got angry then he calmed down,"100 years ago his home, in Hueco Mundo, was invaded by hollows. They also destroyed the soul society, the boy saw hope... 3 day ago he joined with the hollows to get back his house to go back to hell, but first he had to destroy his prescience of being a Shinigami.

Moments ago that boy returned to hell. Destroying his Zanpakutōs . Presently you face that same boy, but revived as something new. Not a Hollow or a Shinigami. Are you wondering what this has to do with you?"

onie was holding holding his mask.

 

OoC:and that is his bio in the longest version.

[Signosis]

"That's right, it seems that you have already transformed into a hollow after a day. Tell me how does it feel to be a hollow instead of a shinigami?"

 

Jo stared at him while he patted her head, and she instantly nuzzled into his hand.

 

"Interessting." Jo answered, giving him a faint smile.

 

"Also, do you have a name?"

 

"My Shinigami name wasss Jo," She said, staring at him. "It'sss up to you if you want me to keep it."

[Dad]

Zaraki finally got up to check on Urahara again. "He's doing great, I only hope I can recover what he paid for us." He walked down to the basement, where their gate to Seireitei was stored.

 

The basement was still reeking with the scent of vanity and betrayal. Zaraki couldn't help but hate the way Urahara did things. "I'll avenge you Urahara-sempai. This much is sure." The gate seemed to vibrate violently, and Urahara (upstairs) was totally in synch with it.

 

An aura of white light escaped his mouth, blinding everyone in the room temporarily, before it faded. Yourichi darted back into the room, questioning everyone. "What was that?!"

 

Shiro pointed over to Urahara. The vibrant energy was still there, but with less intensity. Urahara began to speak. "The dawn grows near Shinigami. In three hours and 27 minutes, you will proceed to the Senkai gate below, and enter Seireitei. Any fraction of a second later, and your world will crash around you."

 

The energy faded, and Urahara fell to sleep again.

 

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

 

Eric eagerly waited outside, as the dawn drew closer. He could see the first glimmer of light of in the horizon, and gave a roaring cry of victory as it crossed the rim of his nose. "It is time!" he yelled to his fellow Espada below.

 

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

 

A glare of sunlight crept through the King's window and over to his throne, where he swatted his hands towards his doors, and the other to the skies. "Protect my Kingdom at all costs!" he commanded.

[Guest]

"Well you were reborned so you have the right to name yourself, as for me just call me Mateo." The arrancar sensed that one of the other non-shinigamis were coming close to them, with the new hollow with Him and Gran she would be in more danger then most. "But for now I want you to do me a small favor, there is a non Shinigami near a shopping area, can you check that person out for me?"

[4tutoralcom]

Onie took off his mask ,"There is one part of my story i didn't tell you, the boy was token away form his family , but not by a Shinigami it was a black demon, were you he?"

[Dad]

The sunlight had not yet reached the Human World, but indeed the day grew closer. Zaraki wasn't nervous, but he indeed feared the destruction of balance. "I'm counting on you all," he said to himself.

 

"If it comes time for desperate measures, I'll do something desperate, but I pray not." He climbed back upstairs, where time was moving quickly. One hour had passed since Urahara spoke last. The time was now to act.

 

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

 

Dura approached closer to the Hell-born Shinigami. "You cannot be the boy of chosen legacy. That boy, Shinigami, is said to be my eternal enemy. Said to match my strength, my power, and my control, but I do not believe you!" he roared. His fierce voice shattered the walls around the fiery pit. Dura was not happy.

[Zexaeon]

Gran looked edgy. "I think we should go soon." he said. The children had all gone home hours ago - while they had been waiting for Jo, night had set in, and dawn would be just 7 hours.

 

Of course, that was here. In the Seireitei, dawn would be arriving very shortly.

 

"I think the ambush happens today. We need to get back and look as though we encountered Keyonshi's fake rbellion." he explained. He looked at Jo. "Would you like to come with us?"
