The Senkaimon is an immense gate, located in a Courtyard near the Kido Corps Base of Operations, and it is through this that Shinigami enter and exit the Realm of the Living. Passage through these gates is heavily regulated by the Kido Corps and two members are stationed at the gates at all times, though only one is required to open the gateway. Higher level Shinigami, upon leaving for the Realm of the Living, have a seal automatically placed upon them to restrict their power, though this can be disabled if the situation demands it.
For non-Shinigami to pass through the Senkaimon, some alterations must be made, and usually requires two Kido Corps members to set up the temporary changes. All Shinigami are escorted through the Senkaimon by a Hell Butterfly.
After passing through the Senkaimon, Amaranth quickly worked with the Kido Corps members present, temporarily altering the structure of the passage to all the Quincy through, in addition to the other Shinigami. Once the work was done, the gateway clicked on both sides, the sound echoing softly around the area. With her work done, Amaranth collapsed onto into a seated position, landing with a thump, and a sigh. Reaching up to her head, the Kido Commander retied the ribbon in her hair, and reclined against a wall, still breathing heavily as she waited for the others to pass through the gateway.
[[Alright, Realm of the Living Evac complete. Let's keep this RP moving.]]
S н υxxxF ē n gxxxH ι r o ѕ н ι ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬[Captain of the Fourth Division]▬
Shu rushed over to the Senkaimon, as she forgot to alert the rest of her subordinates of the situation at hand, as all she could think about right now was being able to assist these quincy, seeing that so few captains actually seemed to show much concern towards actually helping these humans. "Damn it. Why the hell wasn't I sent to the World of the Living? I could have helped..." Shu resented the fact that she was Captain of the Fourth Division at times, as she felt the urge to help others on the battlefield, but was often cast aside and was forced to leave things at the hands of her comrades.
It killed Shu inside, as she yearned to fight and occasionally missed the days of being the lieutenant of the Fourth Division. During those days she was at leas helpful on the battlefield. Now she was forced to rely primarily on her division members. Though this did have it's advantages. Least Shu didn't have to do much anymore, as all she really has to do as captain was give out orders to her subordinates. She sighed, as she finally arrived at the Senkaimon and noticed so far that Amaranth was the only person to have arrived.
"Amaranth! Where are the others? Are the quincy okay?" Screaming with a concerned tone, Shu was starting to worry that the others might have not made it back in one piece. Seeing Amaranth in such an exhausted state also worried Shu, as someone of her caliber shouldn't have been seen so exhausted...
Momo was one of the next Captains to come out of the Senkaimon, mere moments after the Kido Commander. The girl’s teddy was still stuffed in her Shihakusho with its head sticking out from beneath her chin as she’d barely enough time to take it out when Amaranth had cast her spatial displacement spell without so much as a warning. In fact, everything was happening so fast that Momo barely had time to register it all before returning back to the Soul Society. One moment, she was in the heat of battle, fighting alongside the Quincy and attempting to reduce the number of hollows, the next the Arrancar were seemingly retreating, then before Momo could even react in an attempt to save Captain Sinna the battlefield was bathed in green and everything stopped. Then she found herself at some field, surrounded by the Captains and the remaining Quincy, and then, begrudgingly the Captain followed the group into the Senkaimon, where now she was left to gather her wits.
Still feeling slightly disorientated, the young Captain placed a hand on her head, looking up at Shu with sheer confusion before turning to Amaranth. ”HOOOOKAY~ That was not fun.” The little Captain half-slurred with an exhale as she tipped over to one side and landed with a soft thud on her behind. Yet instead of attempting to get back to her feet, the little Captain decided it was better to lay down, sprawling her arms out as she took a breather. Her mind was still swimming with thoughts of the battle that had just passed. They failed the mission, and not only that, one of them had been taken hostage. Momo then squirmed as she pulled her teddy from her shihakusho and hugged it tightly to her chest. ”Sinna… got taken by an Arrancar.” The girl said, her voice trembling as if she were on the verge of tears. After a sniffle, the girl seemed to regain her composure, and with a deep breath Momo spoke to the Fourth Division Captain once again. ”But the Quincy are mostly unharmed… the ones that we managed to bring back.”
Atsuhiko walked through next. He seemed irritated as usual with his temporary frown on his face. His zanpakuto was unsheathed and was held by the hilt and the blade rested on his shoulder. Atsuhiko rolled his eyes, knowing their mission was practically done. "That was a dumb mission. Nearly not enough tough people to fight. Besides, one of those Quincy a**holes decided to pick a fight with me. He's lucky I didn't decide to kill him, seeing that we were there to save them..." He said in annoyance, soon lowering his Zanpakuto and sheathing it in it's sheath. He soon crossed his arms, wondering what they were to do now. One of those with them fighting were taken, but they probably guessed they would quickly go to get their ally soon. But, for now, they were forced to retreat, which also made it stupid. Hopefully something interesting would happen for Atsuhiko, unless he was planning on giving up on this whole thing.
As Shu approached, concern evident in her voice, Amaranth maneuvered herself back into a standing position, the wave of exhaustion that came after using Kagirinai Eishōhaki passing relatively quickly with only a single use. Raising a hand slightly in greeting, the Kido Commander frowned slightly, and then turned to face the Senkaimon, just as two other captains passed through the gateway. Returning her attention to Shu, she nodded, "The others should be coming through soon, the changes required for the Quincy to pass through the Senkaimon can alter the travel time slightly."
Absently rubbing the back of her head as Momo reached them, and reported briefly, Amaranth briefly glanced back towards the Senkaimon, before softly adding, "She must have been taken just before I dragged the others out... there were still some traces of her reiatsu, and one of the stronger Hollows, but neither of them were present at the end."
Tilting her head slightly, she then paused to reflect upon the Hollow that she had faced, however briefly, and the unusual cero that he and his companion had unleashed. Different from those of normal Hollows, far faster, and extremely dangerous... With a slight nod, more to confirm her own thoughts than anything else, the red-haired captain returned her attention to the others, "Once we are certain the Quincy have safely made it here, I may need to see what information we have on Hollows. Most of those present were as expected, weak and unorganized. A handful, however, could potentially be threats. And to rescue Sinna, we will need to break into their lair, wherever it may be..."

"I was the flare..."
Akarui stepped out of Senkaimon and was able to catch on the last bits of what Moriko had said after slicing a few hollows apart beside the Quincys.
"Sinna you said?" she asked, with slight disbelief. Fabulous. It was like 50 years ago when someone had also been captain and Akarui had been lead of the retrieval mission. And yet their guard was still breached. With a few long strands of hair blowing in the wind, she scoffed softly and braced herself for the next few fights up ahead.
"...in my own fire."

xxxSuke arrived and narrowed his eyes as his eyes landed directly on his brother. He stalked over and balled his fist like he was ready to punch. "And just where did you go huh? Having fun without me? What if you had gotten yourself in trouble again and needed saving? Because I'm sure you would have eventually." He snapped as he got ready to continue to give him an earful when a hell butterfly arrived. It landed on his shoulder and he listened to the message before his face became total calm again. He looked around until he spotted Shu before walking over, patting her shoulder lightly to get her attention. "Captain Hiroshi. There has been a development. Samui-San it seems has once again succumbed to her illness. My sister has her stabilized and in the Underground Hospital Complex and is requesting you make all haste to get there. She, unfortunately, has no understanding or knowledge of what she should do now to finish helping Samui-San out." He said seriously. He knew it was grave business. Samui needed help now. Ai could only keep her stable for so long before it didn't work anymore.

((OOC: Sorry for not being able to post in Hueco Mundo much... but I can post again now so... yeah sorry >~<))
While in Hueco Mundo, Christof had found himself enthralled with fighting against the hollows. So much so that he hardly even noticed the Shinigami until it was time for an evacuation. The idea was irksome, to say the least, but at the same time unavoidable. As he traveled through the Senkaimon alongside the other Quincy, he kept thinking about what had happened: he didn't like working with Shinigami in the least, it went against everything that the Quincy had ever stood for. Of course, among the Quincy Christof was likely the least vocal about such opinions. He would follow whatever was the path of least resistance, in this case shutting up and following along with the others. Still, a part of Christof couldn't help but long for the old way of life. Change was nice, but on the other hand his music was calling out to him, and these bizarre turning of events was forcing him to step outside of his comfort zone. While traveling, his eyes narrowed a bit at this thought. I wonder where this path will lead, and if it's necessarily what we're looking for... Christof wondered as they continued the travel. It was a conflict that required a great deal of analysis, and quite frankly Christof was not in the mood to do so to any great depth. He knew full well that he wasn't the brains of this operation, and had no intention to fit himself into any such role.
These thoughts filled his head before he calmly reset his brain as they neared the exit. He switched his thoughts back to calculated assessments of the sounds around him, which was familiarly silent throughout this area. Then, he neared the exit and calmly stepped through to find himself surrounded by all the Shinigami. "Oh dear," he remarked with a mildly shocked, yet largely still apathetic, look at those around him. "I suppose I am the first of my group to arrive here?" In truth, Christof wasn't exactly sure that had happened considering how distracted he had been with fighting and had left behind the others, but somehow he had ended up first.

S н υxxxF ē n gxxxH ι r o ѕ н ι ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬[Captain of the Fourth Division]▬
As Momo and the others began to arrive, Shu was beginning to notice that the quincy were still not present in the Soul Society. Her face showed tremendous concern, as she was growing concerned that not all of the quincy had survived the confrontation back in the World of the Living. In particular, hearing Momo's remark, Shu couldn't help but 'snap', as she was desperate to help these humans. "Where are the quincy?!?!?!" Screaming with considerable anger behind her tone, Shu was clearly growing impatient seeing her fellow shinigami showing such relaxed attitudes towards the entire situation.
She already resented the fact that she couldn't go on the mission, but seeing her fellow captains attitudes only worsten things for Shu. Then again, she could have just been overreacting...
After all, she was under a great amount of stress with all the new changes that were soon to come to the Hiroshi Noble House among other things. Furthermore, hearing the recent news from Suke only caused further stress on Shu. "Ugh, fine. Just bring her my way Suke..." Sighing, Shu was soon enough brought some relief, as the first wave of quincy arrived. Her face was in sheer awe, as she couldn't believe what was happening before her eyes. Shu, a captain who was born long after the 'extinction' of the human race, always dreamed of being able to see a human before her eyes, and now several were before her.
She was speechless, as she had no clue how to react to this all. However, it wasn't until the pink haired quincy spoke. She snapped out of her state of 'awe', as she cautiously approached the quincy. Her spiritual pressure was suppressed in it's entirety, as she had this look on her face as she approached the group. She heard the tales about how fragile the human race was when it came to being around immense bodies of spiritual pressure, as she was worried that her spiritual pressure could prove to be overwhelming for these beings.
However, they seemed to be fine being around the captains and their spiritual pressures just fine. Shu lightly smiled, as her former attitude seemingly vanished, as she appeared to be more "Please do stay where you are. I'm going to have to heal your bodies and restore your spiritual pressure to it's proper levels." Smiling, Shu snapped her fingers, as three bright orbs of energy formed around the pink haired quincy. "Kaidō #83, Kassei-ka suru." Smiling, a bright white beam of pure energy shot straight through the sky, piercing through the clouds.
Shu fully healed the man without having to use the incantation of this rather powerful spell with relative ease, as she smiled and approached the other quincy, who had less than serious wounds, as she used minor healing spells to heal these quincy. She sighed, as she turned to the captains and spoke. "Someone please call Commander Tennyou over immediately. She's going to need to see this..."

xxxx"No need, Captain Hiroshi." the voice of the Commander chimes in from behind the frazzled woman. Upon Shu's reluctant vanishing from her home, Kokoro had decided to make an appearance herself to the Senkaimon. With the newly appointed Captain following closely on her coat tail, Kokoro now walks onto the platform of the mighty gate, Zanpakuto anchored on her left hip. Kokoro, her demeanor appearing to be quite calm and collected. She looks upon the individuals gathered before her: save the kidnapped ones.
"Impressive work, Captain Trammel. It's good to know some of us still have some wit in our pockets." she continues, now standing next to the Fourth Squad Captain. Amaranth's quick thinking was, from she she had gathered, the reason they made it out alive. Kokoro now looks upon the pink-haired individual standing further back from the crowd.
"Oi, you there, tell us who you are." she says soothingly, but tensely. This is the first time, in a very long time, she has seen a human being. Commonly thought to be extinct after the First Ash War, a simple glance now was a phenomena! But, no matter the rarity of this, the Commander had more important information to gather. How many Quincy were actually still residing in the Human World? What information do they have on these new Hollow-vermon? Most importantly, how did they live all of these years in a doomsday aftermath?
Kokoro focuses in on the pink-haired woman now, feeling her strange reiatsu flowing about the area, intertwining yet conflicting that of their own. It does shock Kokoro though that the other Quincy hadn't arrived at this point in time.

"What now?" Christof asked in mild surprise. Upon arriving, he had been greeted quite unexpectedly. That or, perhaps it was exactly as should be. Quincy in the Soul Sociey was a quite unheard of occurrence. Any sort of interaction between the two races was quite unusual. The only thing was that Christof did not particularly care. Still, suddenly three orbs of energy formed around Christof. Though the female Shinigami mentioned something about healing, it still seemed like some sort of unusual attack. Thus, Christof readied himself in case he would need to retaliate. After all, there was a fairly good chance that there would be some sort of conflict stirring. Christof was mildly surprised, then, when a white beam of pure energy shot through the clouds and then nothing. In surprise, Christof noticed that his wounds were healing. The Quincy most likely had healing techniques like this, though since Christof had mostly stayed out of conflict his whole life, he had never seen such healing techniques used. Following the healing, Christof smiled politely at the Captain in thanks. Though his smile was intended to be polite, there was something always just a tad bit unsettling about Christof's facial expressions.
Shortly after being healed, a new spiritual presence entered the area. The pink haired Quincy turned to see a new Shinigami, who had a sort of air of authority about her. When she addressed Christof, he gestured to himself, stating, "Me? My name is Christof Emil Ishimoto. Quincy, but I take it you have gathered that much already." After introducing himself, he politely bowed before waiting to see how the Shinigami would react next. He did not know what to expect to them, and was just as ready to produce his weapon as he was to sit down and have a meal with them. That is, if the other Quincy would do the same; it just so happened that he was not particularly fond of making decisions like this on his own. For all he knows, he could pick a totally horribly wrong choice, and end up doing twice as much work as if he had just followed along with the whim of the others. On the other hand, the others might just come along and make things worse. Right now, things seemed quite simple, and Christof didn't mind the attention, really.

ALICE ~SUPER~ GATCHAMAN !
Drowned in darkness Alice could neither hear or see, she felt as though she was underwater, in a place where her body struggled to move and her breath going so slowly she couldn't tell if she really was breathing at all. It was a strange and scary place, one she wished to desperately escape or else she might succumb to the numbing and intoxicating curse that took her. Trapped in this state of paradox, Alice forced herself to remember how exactly this fate had befallen her, how exactly she went from keeping her comrades alive to being in the state that she was. But no matter how much she willed it Alice could only remember fighting the red haired Espada, the presence of some Shinigami then blinding light... Enemies! At that moment every fiber of her body fell pray to her instincts, the delitescent might brought by life threatening desperation awoke her with a violence that made her forget everything besides survival. The fierce warrior leaped from her seat with the aid of her Hirenkyaku technique, travelling at a good pace slightly damped by her dizziness Alice went from the first thing she saw: Shu. The power of her Blut covered her body in protective energy as she attempted to lunge at the Captain, if proven successful she would have the woman trapped with both her arms fastened behind her back with Alice's right hand and the woman's chocolate brown hair curled in her left. Her damaged state prevented her from exerting enough force to harm the woman or even subdue her effectively, but by some blind hope she prayed the woman would comply and just let herself be taken hostage at least just for enough time so that she can figure what was happening. Blood bleeding into her eyes, her vision blurry and her heart racing at a chest burning pace, Alice looked onto the Shinigami standing by her incapacitated brothers and sisters incapacitated laying on makeshift beds, "Let my people go! Or I swear on my cross I will rip this woman apart!" She hadn't even seen Christof due to her complete possession of desperation and fear.
Sorry I had my wisdom teeth pulled out today and I'm still kinda sedated...

Just as Shu was asking her comrades to call for Commander Tennyou, she arrived, as Shu simply looked at the commander and stood next to her. Shu remained quiet, as she listened to what the pink haired man had to say, along with the orders of Kokoro. However, Shu's attention was briefly shifted over to the arrival of yet another quincy.
This one however seemed to view Shu as a hostile, as she lunged directly toward her. Shu almost instinctively used shunpu and appeared behind the young quincy, as she shouted out loud, "Bakudō #63. Sajō Sabaku!" Then without warning, yellow energy, taking a form of very thick rope soon surrounded Alice, effectively binding her, as she fell towards the ground. Shu sighed as she walked over to the young quincy, as she crouched down, looking at the quincy in the face and smiled lightly.
"Calm down, will ya? We don't mean you any harm. I'm simply using healing spells to heal your comrades after that intense fight you had with those arrancar class hollows..." However, Shu stopped speaking, as she noticed a few wounds on the young quincy's body and sighed. She snapped her fingers and used the same healing spell on the pink haired quincy. All of Alice's wounds were now fully healed and her spiritual pressure was back to normal. "The name's Shu Fēng Hiroshi, Captain of the Fourth Division. Just who might you be?" Smiling, Shu silently lifted away the binding spell she cast earlier, and reached her hand out, as she offer her hand for a friendly handshake, uncertain just what the quincy would do...
xxxSuke looked in amazement as he saw something he had never seen before. A human. He had been born in the Rukongai district. He had never been to the World of the Living even. Yet here he was seeing Humans. His attention was returned as the Head Captain made an appearance. He quickly bowed to her before looking at Shu. "I'll try to do what I can. Though I'm not positive that I will be allowed to tote her out to here." He said before glaring at his brother. "Don't think I'm in any way Done with you. You get off for now because Ai needs my help. You're going to get it later." He hissed before looking to see that no one else had heard him before slipping off to where he knew his sister was. {Exit}
