The Fourth Seat lay on the ground, unmoving. The flames of his Bankai flickered and all but died around him. Feeling an eruption of Spiritual Pressure, Tsu began to stir. His eyes slowly opened. All he could feel was an overwhelming pain in his chest and a sickening, twisting feeling flowing throughout his body. A series of coughs racked his body and blood flew from his mouth. He hadn't even seen the hit, only that Aizen had appeared in front of him before he knew what was going on.
The blue haired Instructor tried to sit up, fighting back a wave of nausea. What the hell did he do to me? He slowly stood, catching sight of the Thirteenth Squad's Lieutenant in Bankai form. How long had he been out? Apparently long enough. Tsu turned and struggled to his feet. As he stood, he shook his head, trying to clear the throbbing pain that had taken root behind his eyes. He'd been knocked unconscious many times before, but never waking up to anything like this. No time for that, though. Tsurabisu took a few steps toward where Yuu was attempting to fight Aizen, but he was having trouble seeing. His eyes were going in and out of focus. His head was starting to spin. He just didn't have the strength to keep up his Bankai. He stumbled and fell to his knees. The flames of his Bankai died and Hoshokusha returned to her sealed state. The pain in his chest began to intensify. Poisoned? Tsu began to heave. It was as if something had been building inside his stomach and it was trying to burst out. A gurgling roar escaped him as he pitched forward onto the ground. He was vaguely aware of a wet sensation spreading over his face. All he knew was he couldn't see. He couldn't hear. He couldn't move.

The young lieutenant had her head tilted to the ground, trembling slightly. Everything had happened so fast for her that she'd barely been able to process the information, but all that she needed to know was that he'd hurt Tsu. And killed Ukitake. And Hikari had lost it. Ukitake-taicho... he's dead... Tsu-kun... "Bankai..." She whispered.
Immediately, the Reiatsu in the air was pulled toward her and her spirit energy spiked immensely. She knew that there was no way she could have enough time nor cover to gather up enough energy to impact Aizen, but if she could only have enough to distract him enough for Yuu to get out of there with Tsu... She hurled a part of the stored energy at Aizen and the others, while collecting more energy. There just wasn't enough time to store the energy. Had she not been facing off against Aizen alone, had there been others to distract him she might have been able to knock him down. There's only me, though, she thought. Hikari had begun draining Reiatsu from things nearby, purposely trying to steer clear of Yuu and Tsu. Not daring to waste anymore time, Hikari unleashed the attack on him fully, the vast amount of energy blasting against Aizen and his allies.

Everything went by fast. First Tsurabisu unleashed his bankai, which the man moved wicked fast and made Tsu unconscious. Then the same man had thrust into Ukitake-taicho, a man that every student wanted to be in his squad. When that happened, Haru felt a bitter sensation all around him. 'That man, he isn't human...', was the only thought that he could think. All of a sudden a bright light caught his eyes. It was the lieutenant of the thirteenth squad, whom had achieved bakai as well. Hikari as well had reached bankai, but Haru felt as if his reiatsu was being drained.
He regret on not going back to soul society with the others, but now was not the time to think, for any second and his life would be gone.. He decided that it was best to tell the other captain what was going on. With that thought in mind he use his flash step to reach the gate, where the others went through.

Aizen watched as the two Lieutenants released their Bankais finding them to be somewhat interesting and figured he would keep them busy so they didn't pay much attention to the Blue Haired man. The process was already starting and soon he would be up and would then be uncontrollable and not even the same person. He would likely even attack his allies without meaning to do so because of the effects. Feeling his reiatsu being pulled towards the woman however caused him to give the Lieutenant a slight smile. Oh she could be very useful. As the blast went towards him the man identified as Muramasa quickly moved in front of Aizen taking the full brunt of the attack and leaving Aizen completely unharmed behind him. the girl hadn't even made a dent in his reiatsu and Aizen got a wicked idea and planned to overload her completely. Both the lieutenants were still obviously new to their bankais and therefore even if normally they might not have a certain weakness when releasing a new and untrained Bankai it left multiple weaknesses. Using shunpo he moved behind Hikari and then released his entire reiatsu so that she would begin absorbing it and become overloaded. "Foolish girl as if you could handle absorbing the reiatsu of a being higher than yourself." The girl's abilities were already something that interested him greatly and he wanted to use her as an experiment. Turning towards Yuu however he waved Tousen over who took his place in feeding Hikari reiatsu and Aizen turned to Yuu. "You have not seen my Shikai release I see. Obviously when I left you were too weak to even warrant a minute of my attention. However Light and Dark type Zanpakuto are quite rare especially in the form of yours with it being a dual type. Therefore I will amuse myself with you for the moment and see the limits of your bankai. Not to mention I have something I want to try out. I certainly have time until the next Captain shows up. Who knows maybe it will be Unohana." Smiling in a evil way Aizen pulled back his robes to reveal a second katana that he unsheathed. "Reflect Bachiatari Kagami (Cursed Mirror)." With the release a large body sized mirror appeared behind Aizen who simply stepped to the side. "Now show me what fears you have."
Yuu turned towards Tsu as the man let out a roar and couldn't help but wonder exactly what Aizen had done to the man. "Hold on Tsu-san just give us a few more minutes and we will get out of here." Hearing Hikari release her Bankai memories of her releasing her bankai the time before flooded back to him and he braced himself only to notice that his reiatsu wasn't being sapped. Giving her a nod he turned towards Aizen only to see the man no longer standing there. The release of reiatsu moments later however told him exactly where the man had gotten to. Turning towards him and falling prey to the monstrous amount of reiatsu Aizen wielded he felt sweat form on his forehead. Then it was gone as Tousen took Aizen's place in trying to do whatever it was Aizen was doing. Ignoring Aizen's words for the most part he heard Unohana mentioned and ground his teeth together hoping Hikari kept a cool head. However Yuu quickly got a surprised look as Aizen revealed a second katana and then released a whole new zanpakuto. Looking at the giant mirror in horror he couldn't stop from looking on in horror as the deceased bodies of Ukitake and Matsumoto looked out at him in a zombified state wielding katanas of their own. After a moment or two the bodies stepped out of the mirror and a haunting voice that sounded like Ukitake spoke. "You let me die Yuu-kun. Had you obeyed my order and left I would still be alive. Instead you thought you knew better and as good as killed me yourself." The two zombies slowly got closer as Yuu took a few steps backwards in pure shock and horror. The Matsumoto zombie then added on to what Ukitake was saying. "How could you let me die? I thought you loved me and yet you left me defenseless. How can you live with yourself?" Yuu's eyes widened even farther as the zombies advanced and then taking advantage of his shock swung both katanas catching him with a dual slice straight to the chest. Feeling two somewhat deep and long cuts open up on his chest Yuu stumbled backwards. "No leave me alone." Swinging out in an arc with his white blade he stopped it at the last second not able to bring himself to harm either of the phantoms before him. Dashing backwards farther the pain in his chest was quickly intensifying. Aizen simply stood back and watched in amusement waiting for the two phantoms to tear the lieutenants apart. Maybe he would let him survive if he amused him enough.

The Fourth Seat lay face down on the ground, a raspy sound could be heard as he struggled to breathe. He reached out, bracing himself as he pushed off the ground, unaware that his hands were actually digging into the concrete where he pushed. As he stood, his breathing intensified, sounding more like a growl than actual breathing. Though his eyes were closed, his masked face turned, taking in the battle field as if he could see every last detail.
Kill...
Wha...?
Kill!
His eyes snapped open, shining with a fiery red light. He held his Zanpakuto in front of him and let out a blood curdling roar, unsealing the sword. The being that had been the Fourth Seat of the Zaraki Squad extended the claws on his gauntlets and launched himself at the nearest living body. Yuu.

Hikari had been expecting a ton of Reiatsu, and for a moment, her concentration kept her standing under the enormous weight that was Aizen's energy. However, as soon as she noticed Tsu bolt upright and launch himself at Yuu, her concentration was broken. She screamed. "TSU! What are you doing!?" And she gasped as she realized what she had done. Unable to control the vast amount of energy, in her outburst, she'd sent it crashing into her childhood friend. Oh, no, no, no... NO! This isn't happening! She felt numb for a moment, the weight of what she'd done overcoming her. A hatred that she had never felt before, mixed with a desolate emptiness enveloped her. It was too much. She felt completely overwhelmed by it. "..." Hikari fell to her knees, succumbing only to shock.

The one who had been Tsurabisu only moments before staggered under the tremendous power of the Lieutenant's attack, but did not lose his footing. Slowly, the being turned its fiery gaze toward the woman and released a low growl, almost a warning, before turning back to the highest ranking member of Squad Thirteen. He tossed back his head and let out a fierce battle cry and leapt at the Lieutenant, blades at the ready.

Yuu continued moving backwards and parrying the cuts and slices that each phantom swung at him. It was becoming increasingly difficult as the phantoms seemed to be adjusting to his style and getting closer each time. Hearing Hikari scream caused Yuu to look back and receive a tiny cut along his right arm. Tsu seemed to be charging him and wearing a mask. 'WHAT?! Is that a hollow mask?!' Surprise was clear on his face as Tsu staggered under the weight of Hikari's accidental attack. Using shunpo to move away from the phantoms for the moment to catch his breath it was quickly becoming clear that with Hikari now basically out of the picture due to her shock he was on his own. Hearing tsu let out a battle cry Yuu turned towards him only to see the fourth seat attacking him yet again. "Tsu-san snap out of it!" Receiving the incoming attack with his blades and blocking Yuu was going to buckle under Tsu's superior physical strength if something wasn't done soon. Looking around he noticed Aizen had sealed the new zanpakuto for the time being so that him and Tsu had the field. Obviously he was wanting to see the result of what he did to Tsu. Pushing against Tsu to no avail he let his left hand point at Tsu. "Bakudo number 63 Sajo Subaku." Watching as the thick white chains shot out from his hand and tried to ensnare Tsu Yuu tried to push against him until he was tied up. "Hikari-san I need you to help me. Snap out of it please Hikari-san."
Aizen watched as his shikai attacked Yuu sealing the moment Tsu charged Yuu a second time and looking over at Hikari. Disappearing and reappearing beside the girl Aizen bent down towards her ear and spoke in a very quiet voice. "I can give you the power you desire. The power you desire to be of some actual use instead of this shell you are. If you accompany me then you will get what you desire and the blue haired man will love you in return. He will love you because he loves battle and if you can actually fight then he has a reason to love you. Give in to the hatred and the darkness inside your heart and join me. He will be your prize for your loyalty. So come with me girl." Standing back up straight he extended a hand to the girl waiting for her to take it. He would probably never help her become stronger but the illusion of helping her get what her heart desired would be enough. In the end he would probably just discard the girl after she served her purpose.

The creature that had been Tsurabisu struggled against the powerful Bakudo. Unable to break it, he let out a distorted roar but fell silent when Aizen appeared next to Hikari. His head turned slightly to he side, as if he could hear what the man was saying to her, even though he was so far away. A low growl escaped him as he listened to what the former Captain said, almost as if he was warning the man to stay away from her. As the man extended his hand to the Lieutenant, three points of light emitted from the left side of the Fourth Seat's mask in a triangle pattern. The points of light followed Tsu's gaze, stopping on Aizen's chest, targeting the man's heart. A hiss escaped him as he powered up his spiritual pressure, forming it into an attack. With one last primal roar, he shot a Cero from the targeting sights on the side of his mask.
The former Third Squad Captain, Gin Ichimaru stood a short distance away, watching the action without getting involved. This just felt wrong. He had watched Aizen kill Jushiro, and while he didn't consider the man his friend, he at least respected him. But his fate was what you'd expect when going up against Aizen. If the snake didn't want to get picked off by the hawk, it should stay in the shadows. And that was exactly what Gin was doing ever since Aizen had brought him back from the dead. Still, why did he feel so strange around the Lord of Hueco Mundo? Shouldn't he feel nothing but gratitude for the man who brought him back? Not only that, but Aizen had also avenged him when he was killed by the Soul Society fifty years ago... At least he claimed to. His last memories before being killed were of fighting with the Kurosaki brat and Rangiku. Still, something about the story didn't seem right. Had he really been killed by Rangiku? And why was it that whenever he glanced at Aizen, all he could think about was being killed? Unfortunately, all he had was Aizen's word on the matter. It wasn't as if he could go to the Soul Society and politely ask them what had happened.
Gin shook his head. He knew he should be paying attention to the battle instead of daydreaming. "Oh, my. It sure looks like he doesn't like you touching his girlfriend, doesn't it, Cap'n?"

Aizen gave Tsu a very unimpressed look as the newly created vizard launched a cero at him. Aizen watched it close the distance then simply batted it away with the back of his hand as if the whole attack wasn't worth his attention. "So the house cat thinks he is a Lion? Stay down boy it is not time for me to end you." Hearing Gin speak of for the first time Aizen looked over at the man with a somewhat amused expression. "So it would seem Gin. Fortunately for him he is not really worth my time. Neither of the men are for the time being. If you want to stretch your limbs and knock one of them around feel free. I believe one of them used to be in your division. Just hurry up if you decide to. We won't be staying much longer." Turning back to Hikari he returned his hand to it's previous location to offer it up. "Kaname make sure the blue haired boy stays down for now." The blind man nodded towards Aizen then turned towards Tsu and moved near him ignoring Yuu for the moment. As he stared down at Tsu with his bindings the man hovered his hand in front of his face. He was ready at anytime to release his own mask and beat the man into submission if necessary.

Another roar escaped from Tsurabisu as his attack was deflected. A high pitched noise could be heard as another Cero powered up again and fired. This time, the Cero that erupted from his mask was an electric blue as the spiritual pressure was raised. Not waiting to see if the attack hit or not, he fired another blast at the Bakudo that bound him. As soon as the spell began to crumble, he extended the blades on his gauntlets and the temperature around him soared high enough to where the concrete under him began to melt. The Fourth Seat launched himself toward the blind man, the blades on his gauntlets glowing white hot.

The blind man watched as another cero was released though this one carried an obvious higher amount of reiatsu to it. Waving his hand in front of his face and forming the mask on his face the man disappeared with his now enhanced speed and moved in front of Aizen grabbing the cero much like Aizen had and throwing it aside. His arm was highly damaged from doing that however right before everyone's eyes the wounds healed rapidly. It would now become obvious that while in his vizard form Tousen had access to high speed regeneration. Holding his zanpakuto towards Tsu as the man charged him Tousen moved against him. Thrusting his zanpakuto forward and using his reach advantage he aimed to impale the rapidly approaching Tsu on the blade. The blind man figured if it was necessary he could just heal any damage.

It was hard for her to think through after what she'd done. The lieutenant felt completely like ice all over. And when Aizen spoke to her, suddenly, it was like Hikari had fallen into a daze. She opened her mouth to speak, but no sound came out. She shook her head, as if unbelieving and rushed over to Yuu's side in an attempt to help him.
It was apparent that what had transpired moments before, and Aizen's influence had unsettled her, and shaken her determination. I'm too weak to make a difference... Look what's happened because of my incompetence...
Yes, you're weak.. If I was always me we wouldn't be this weak! He offers us power and you refuse to take it! You always refuse to get stronger. Think everyone's just going to protect poor little Hikari forever? Pathetic...
Then... then what... should I do...?
Her hands shook as she held onto Keikoku, pointing it in the direction of the others- Tsu included. They were all attacking. Everything was a mess, and it had pretty taken away what little sanity she had.

The Hollowfied Tsurabisu rushed the blind man, seemingly ignoring the Zanpakuto pointed at him. At the last second, he used a Flash Step to put himself behind Tousen. Another distorted roar escaped him as he slashed downward at the former Captain's back.
"Shoot to kill, Shinso." Aiming his Zanpakuto at the newly Hollowfied squad member, Ichimaru released his Shikai, extending the blade at an incredible speed. The blade sliced through the top of the mask, so close to Tsu's head that it severed several strands of hair. "Now, now. It ain't fair ta be attacking from behind."

The attack from the former Captain was enough of a distraction to cause the blue haired monstrosity to fall short of his mark. His blades passing close enough to slice the fabric of Tousen's clothes.
Stop!
Tsu screamed silently inside his own mind. All he could do was watch as his body moved. If he didn't do something soon, he'd be dead. And Hikari... Out of the corner of his eyes, he could see her aiming her blade in their direction. From the look in her eyes, she had no idea what she was doing or where she was. It was as if she were suffering the same fate as himself.
Stay out of this! I'll take their heads!
NO! Get out of my head! Stop this! A thought occurred to him. Hoshokusha! Please, hear me! Don't let me use your power! Seal yourself away! We have to stop this! He waited to hear the voice of his Zanpakuto as his Hollowfied body attacked the former Captains. As the seconds slipped by, nothing changed. He called out to his blade over and over wth no results.
A laughter filled his mind. Try all you want! you'll never escape! This body is mine now...
Like hell it is! Get out! Tsurabisu let out a silent scream and released every bit of his Spiritual Pressure that he could. Soon, a demonic roar joined the sounds inside his head as his Hollowfied body began to convulse. Its clawed hands gripped the side of its head as it bellowed in pain. Lines began to race though the white mask. With a loud "Crack," a chip of the mask fell to the ground followed by another, and another. Soon, the Fourth Seat's face could be seen underneath the nightmarish mask. "And stay out..." The Substitute Instructor mumbled as he fell to the ground, free of the Hollow who had filled his mind.
