921  xxxxxxxxClimb the mountains and get their good tidings. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxNature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. Hakase Yuki
博士雪
Ichibantai Taichō
Though she received words of greetings from Akane, as polite as they had been, she simply brushed them off to the side. She was not trying to be rude, she was simply no longer in the mood to chatter, nor was it any longer the time for that. Yuki sat idly while everyone filed in, albeit slower than she would have desired, and kept her attention on sealing up the remaining Reiatsu that was leaking out unfiltered into the air, and on calming herself down. Of course, alongside that was the immediate protection for little Senka, whom she extended her Reiatsu-proof barrier to for obvious reasons. This would go unnoticed except to Tsukiko as it wasn't a visibly apparent barrier to begin with. Once everyone was inside, she wasted no time and dove right into her preparatory words. "As you are well aware, today we take back what is ours. We lost, unfortunately, a year and a half ago due in part to my pregnancy as well as insufficient firepower. I apologize for my part in that, and naturally there is nothing I can do about it except confront that man who took Tomomi from us, and beat his face into the ground." Yuki exhaled sharply, as that statement had been tough to make without dropping a multitude of swear words. The both of them were refraining from repeating such words in front of Senka, just as they had done for Tsukiko several years ago. Of course, that had obviously failed miserably.
"On that same note, I hope that I do not need to tell you that no one is to confront the man that calls himself Ori. I miss Tomomi just as much as the rest of you, but I hate to say that it's simply not possible for any of you to stand up to him. I'm sure you all remember how events played through last time. Likewise, the Sephira Zenos Athanasius is to only be approached with extreme caution; a team of two at the very least, and I'd prefer it if at least one Vizard was part of that team. After examining the bugs he placed on both himself and Ciel, Hakase-Taichō has come to the conclusion that he is truly immortal. Suffice it to say that that you should refrain from putting your efforts into killing him, as that is only going to work against you." Yuki had mentioned surveillance bacteria on Hei and Ciel, but they had naturally been administered to everyone in secret. She simply didn't mention this as the last thing Hei needed was more anger. After taking a short pause that was not meant for anyone to make a comment, she continued.
"Naturally, in the midst of our collective failure, we have trained, and some worked harder than others. I'd like to happily congratulate you all for working hard, but I find myself unable. You may ask me why I don't do it, and if you did I would have an answer for you. I simply do not believe the entirety of this organization deserves it. I am well aware of the steps each of you have taken to physically prepare yourself, but your advancement in these areas are only overshadowed by the appalling fact that adults, most whom are more than several centuries old, are still resorting to bickering amongst one another like children. Need I remind you that this is a military and not a summer camp, and that I am a leader, not a camp counselor that is to tend to your every whim? It's utterly depressing that a nine-month old child is better behaved than century-old adults. It begs the question how one can manage a fight if they can't be properly sociable. But enough about that." It would be the first time, but certainly not the last time that she berated them where they stood. They could think ill of her all they wanted, but the fact remained that she was a military leader first, and a friend to them second. She simply could not risk coddling them like children, and she was not in any way supposed to treat them kindly and tread on every subject with kittens and rainbows. It was as she said; the Gotei 13 was a military. Yuki entered her final point a few seconds later.
"Finally, I understand that there are those that have misgivings about the use of Hollow powers. My suggestion to you is to abandon your close-mindedness and focus on the battle ahead. It would be utterly foolish of any of you to refrain from using them simply because of personal feelings. When you put on that uniform, you changed your allegiance to the Seireitei, and your path became the path I have laid before you. There is no room for personal feelings on the battlefield; your opponent is not going to go easy on you because you don't want to use the full extent of your power. So, use everything you have, press forward, and crush the opposition. That is all I have to say." She fell silent as she finished speaking, but continued to allow her gaze to float around the room as she waited for conversation to resume. Yuki imagined someone would have something to say in response, but it seemed unlikely that she would ever answer them. She had already said what she wanted to say and was already ready to leave, even though there were a few things that needed to be tended to. The winds will blow their own freshness into you,xxxxxxxx
And the storms their energy,xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
While cares will drop off like autumn leaves.xxxxxxxxxx [In the interest of pushing this RP forward, I'm going to just go ahead and start up the meeting once everyone is inside; in Yuki's perspective, not mine, of course. For those RPCs that have not been RP'd walking inside the lobby by the time this is posted, then you would obviously simply write that they did, and then have them listen to their speech. Or you could have them be lazy, miss her speech, then get reprimanded later. I honestly have no preferences.]

Tadashi Sakamoto
9th Division Lieutenant Tadashi shifted his form a little and cast an annoyed glance at the Captain that had popped out of nowhere - both in existance and in the current situation. He said nothing and didn't offer his forgiveness, but merely watched as they continued their little game. He noted the impressive flash-step movements, but saw that they held no purpose training-wise. A bit pointless, but it wasn't any of his concern.
Pausing while the rest of the events played out, he looked at Suzume questionably and wondered if she'd calmed down yet. Letting his mind wander, he also wondered just where Tetsunosuke had actually run off to. It didn't seem fitting for an (ungrateful) Vizard Captain to crawl back to his room after having a momentary lapse of insanity, but there were not a lot of places he could be inside the complex.
Then there was Yuki's speech, jarring him out of his short reverie. He clenched his fists in a once again temporary lapse of anger, but otherwise had no other physical reaction as Yuki revealed why most of the Shinigami had been left out of her area of "thanking", which implied the majority's inability to participate in the Vizard program. He thoroughly believed that he'd been worthy, considering his mental discipline (though this was clearly a contradiction, since he often found himself at the mercy of his negative emotions). The truth in this belief, though, is having conquered his Inner World and his zanpakuto's mental and physical games of torment during Bankai training.
Tadashi did remain silent, though. In fact, the only ones who could probably sense his discontent were people who had caught the hints in his manner of speaking earlier and nothing short of a mind-reader.

|540| Masashi, Lee, Gobantai Taichō"Hold it together. Birds of a feather. Nothing but lies and crooked wings. I have the answer. Spreading the cancer. You are the faith inside me. No, Don't, leave me to die here. Help me survive here, alone. Don't Remember! Remember! Put me to sleep, Evil Angel. Open your wings, Evil Angel. I'm a believer. Nothing could be worse. All these imaginary friends. Hiding betrayal. Driving the nail. Hoping to find a savior. No, don't, leave me to die here. Help me survive here, alone. Don't Surrender! Surrender! Put me to sleep, Evil Angel. Open your wings, Evil Angel. Fly over me, Evil Angel. Why can't I breathe, Evil Angel?" 
Lee ignored Tetsunosuke for the most part as he walked back not seeing any point in arguing with the misguided shinigami. He had no further points to make and the fact that Tetsunosuke continued and tried to say he was a coward was unfounded in his mind. He had done what he thought right and didn't simply back down. No one had really supported his view from the beginning of that argument. Therefore it was useless to continue fighting something that was going to happen anyway. As far as Lee was concerned Tetsunosuke was the coward letting his personal beliefs get in the way of his duty. Either way he said nothing not even getting angry with the hotheaded shinigami or even acknowledging that anything else was said. When Suzume spoke Lee gave her a nod to show that he had heard her. Glad to hear that she was ready and more than that her training was going well as well. Then another nod went to Tadashi to show that he had heard. After a few more moments he took his leave from both of them and walked back into the apartment he shared with Nu. There he simply remained silent and became lost in thought until the meeting was called. Knowing things were about to be gotten underway Lee rubbed the Tekkō that was stretched across both of his forearms. The only sign of him being completely prepared to use the strongest hado. Though of course he would have preferred not to have to use it. It was something that had to prepared beforehand for a very good reason. Letting out a sigh Lee made his way to the meeting and once inside stood by to listen.
It seemed like not long after arriving the meeting started and Yuki began talking. The part about Zenos being truly immortal probably should have surprised him more, but after seeing the Sephira get literally chopped in half and still manage to pull himself together nothing about the man surprised him all that much. Even hearing her scold them didn't really surprise them and was something he agreed with. Even he himself was guilty of such things though he had certainly gotten better. After all the old him would have tore into Tetsunosuke without hesitation before. As it stood he was simply trying to make the man see that he was helping no one the way he was. Either way it still proved that he was not entirely guilt free in that area. Especially after the night of Hibiki's hollowification. The last bit about the use of hollow powers was something he had already come to terms with. He was not without his doubts but was beyond voicing them out loud. After all he was mostly accepting of the use of such powers to defeat the Sephira even if he maintained a thought that they shouldn't have used them. Still it seemed they would be unable to defeat such powerful enemies without the use of hollow powers. After Yuki was finished speaking Lee closed his eyes and waited for things to progress further or for someone to speak to him. He had nothing to add to the meeting after all at the moment.
"Sacrifice through Danger and Pure Love. That is what the Lily of the Valley symbolizes."

xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx【 SUZUME CHIYOKO 】 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxLoneliness hit me suddenly,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxbut it’s only t h e n that I realized,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxafter all that I have ever DREAMED of,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxI really don’t like F I G H T I N G ✿✿✿ Suzume raised an eyebrow at the sudden appearance of the Captain that decided to come out here for one reason or another, bumping into Tadashi before apologizing in Japanese. To tell the truth, she had always expected him to speak in English or something like that and yet he had chosen their native language. Then again, it was most likely easier to communicate with, since most people spoke fluent Japanese around here. However, she had to admit that this Captain, despite the childish manner in which he was approaching everything, had to have some potential, especially when seeing him move like that. Strange. It had been a little strange to have a Captain replaced in the Human World, but since they had found another Shinigami, why not? They had been pretty badly damaged last time and even had to make a tactical retreat, so more might on their side would never hurt, especially with a Captain-level person added to their side. However, they already had the Vizard Captains, did they not? Yes, they did, but if anything went wrong there, it wouldn’t be good in the slightest.
She looked blankly at Lee, wondering why he decided to simply leave without saying anything to her despite the fact that she had said something. That might be her fault, perhaps, since she wasn’t very close to him. She knew that his previous Lieutenants seemed pretty close to him, although she didn’t know Eriko well, only Nu. Hearing the fact that there was meeting being called, she hurried down, taking her place to her sister, who seemed to be stressed again. She gave a convincing smile which said firmly, ‘stop worrying’ before settling down and waiting for the meeting to start. It was soon after that Yuki started speaking and she listened silently, not saying anything in between. She nodded to herself in acknowledgement of the fact of Zenos being immortal, as she knew that she wouldn’t dare fight him in any chance – the one that had nearly killed Nanashi one time and imprisoned her so that she wasn’t able to fight. That was a challenge that would have to be taken when she had more power, but not now. Now would be complete suicide. She withdrew a little into the wall, trying to make herself as inconspicuous as possible as Yuki scolded them. She wasn’t completely sure that she would be in that list, since she didn’t think that she did anything wrong but then again, one never knew. For the meantime, she stayed quiet, unsure of what to do and not daring to speak a word for now.

Mitsuru Naohito
☾Nibantai Taichō ☽
Rest your head now, warrior
I won't let them come
Slaying all those who oppose
To the rhythm of the drums
▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄ ▀ ▄
Finally the meeting started and immediately Yuki gave the clear warning not to approach Ori, which Nu had to agree with. Nu knew the limits of her strength, and while she ranks herself quite highly, the assimilation of Tomomi automatically placed the leader of the Sephira well above her current level. Besides, the last thing she needed was to see him. She'll simply focus on the first Sephira she sees and go with that. Apparently this unknown Sephira wouldn't be Zenos either. Her suspicion had to linger on the fact that Hei had access to the surveillance bacteria, and automatically assume she too had them inside her, a thought that while not pleasant, wasn't too surprising considering the circumstances. Her brows furrowed in thought, her thoughts were only derailed by Yuki's words once again, this time scolding them for acting so childish, which she had to agree on. Yuki's style of berating was quite simlar to her husbands, in the fact that it was simply logic yet perceived as other things. Nu, having been a witness to some childish activity just this morning, could only look around the room for the others reaction, mostly to certain ket figures who always acted so hot headed.
And finally came the one point that struck home to the woman; the issue on hollow powers. She was right in the sense that it was foolish not to use all of her power for the sake of her preferences. What happened to the cold Nu that would follow orders without question? Sometimes she missed that woman... With the meeting finally over, Nu took it upon herself to stretch, circulating her blood once more. Cracking her knuckles out of old habit, she sighs softly as she rises from her sitting position, finally noticing Lee out of the corner of her eye. Giving Elisia one last sheepish smile, she saunters over to the man, taking notice of his closed eyes. Standing next to him, her voice was barely a whisper, as to not disturb him, as well as prevent others from hearing him. "Don't think ill of me for using it Lee....." She doubted Lee would have stopped her, in fact, she knew he wouldn't. As much as he used to be so against the idea, it seemed he understood the need for it, and kept his personal opinions from causing problems, a fact that added just another reason on the long list on why she had feelings for the man.
"Bah, why worry yourself with this guy? He's hardly important now" The hollow's voice ringed inside her mind as she spoke with Lee, not exactly the most proper of times. As her hollow, she knows everything about Nu and yet separates itself in the fact that it practically hates the man. Being a being that ultimately wants to take over her body, the hollow could hardly care less about relations, and instead chooses to only manifest in battle, the only time where it seems content with anything. Before Nu could argue with the being, she could feel the Hollow retreat to the more private sections of her mind, her way of walking away from a conversation. "If you have time to think on men, you have time to train and stop daydreaming.." With that, she could no longer feel the Hollow's presence in her mind, as she stares back at Lee with focused eyes. Over the year, Nu was quick to pick up his new look, and it was initially quite hard to train without imagining him for but a moment, resulting in much more bruises then she needed from Tenka and her hollow alike. Snapping back once again after a flurry of flashbacks of the times where Nu was struck for such daydreaming, she offers the man a quick look over on his physical shape before opening her mouth. "Let's do something when we;re done Lee, grab some sake or something....." It made her sound like she knew they were going to win, and that is what she thought. After all, half the battle is lost if you yourself did not believe in victory.

Blake watched and waited to see if Hibiki would take part in the game or not. A giant smile arose on his face when he saw the silhouette of the man come over the edge. The smile did not remain long, however, as Blake could tell from Hibiki’s panicked movement that he was having second thoughts and as such it wasn’t going to end well. Sure enough Hibiki made the platform too early resulting in him being almost 10 feet in the air still. Blake’s head followed Hibiki’s form from the airwak platform to the ground. “Ooo…” Blake said with a wince as Hibiki had the rough landing. Blake held back a burst of laughter as he watched the other Captain stand up and massage the pain from his bottom, though he couldn’t hold back a slight chuckle when Hibiki spoke to him. “Haha, it’s f-“ Blake cut himself short as Elisia had come over and was yelling at them. He only picked up a few words here and there, but considering the situation, her position, and the fact that a woman’s anger transcended language barriers, it didn’t take a genius to realize that she didn’t appreciate their little game in the least.
He was laughing nervously while they were being chastised when he felt the Reiatsu washing over them like some sinister miasma. He swallowed the lump of fear in his throat and replied to Hibiki’s statement, “Heh, yeah…the General is one scary lady. I’d hate to be on her bad side.” Afterwards Hei appeared in the doorway and was summoning everyone inside which was followed by a second summons from Elisia. Blake waited until Elisia and Nu were inside before he leaned over and whispered to Hibiki. “Remind me not to get on the 4th Division Captain’s bad side either. I wouldn’t want her to go all prime directive on me and kill me to keep me from injuring myself or something.” It was then that ERIS landed on one foot on Blake’s head with her arms crossed. “Why don’t just you stay out of trouble for once and you wouldn’t have to worry about it.” She had said goodbye to Eriko and returned to Blake after pulling the information about the summons from his mind knowing that she would be needed to translate everything that was said back to him. “Let’s go inside before your shenanigans cause more issues.” She jumped down off his head and began walking to the door after which Blake followed. “See ya inside Captain Kirisho,” he said with a wave as he walked back to the building. Once, inside they chose to stand out of the way and listened quietly to Yuki speak, Blake trying to understand as much as possible and ERIS mentally recording everything that was said so she could recount it later.◄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─▄─▀─►

Hibiki Kirisho
- Squad Nine Captain -
================================================
 The gods trembled
The demons flockedFacing Elisia, Hibiki bowed towards her as she reprimanded the two of them for their stunt ”Sorry about that, Captain Elisia.” stammered out Hibiki, scratching his head as he apologized to her, all the while cursing his inner hollow and Kaze for making him fall off the rooftop. Hearing Hei’s voice, Hibiki let out a short sigh, stretching a bit to see if anything else was damaged by his fall, besides his pride. Following Elisia’s lead, Hibiki walked back towards the apartment for one final meeting, at the behest of the Captain-Commander. Hearing what Blake whispered to him, Hibiki found it a bit odd for him to come to quite a conclusion ”Don’t worry, Elisia’s one of the kindest persons I’ve known.” he whispered back ”Though, then again, they say that one should fear the wrath of the patient, so it’s best if we do not provoke her.” Hibiki followed up, honestly not wanting to know what Elisia was like when she gets mad.
Entering the building, Hibiki was not surprised to see that the meeting had already begun. He hoped that he wasn’t too tardy; Yuki was talking about Ori by the time Hibiki showed up, so he wasn’t able to hear her apology for their retreat. Even so, Hibiki held no ill-feelings towards Yuki, he preferred this option far more over the chance of possibly losing a life, especially that of an infant. As Yuki labeled the opponent’s powerhouses, Hibiki agreed that Ori was an adversary that was better left to the Captain-Commander; he had no delusions of standing up to someone who had assimilated the late Tomomi, who was every bit as powerful as Yuki. As the subject shifted to Zenos, Hibiki couldn’t help but feel afraid when Yuki mentioned the man was utterly immortal, in his mind it simply wasn’t possible for someone to achieve that. However, his thoughts on Zenos were put on hold when he remembered that Yuki mentioned having bugs placed on the late Ciel, the possibility that they also had bugs inside them came into mind, though of course Hibiki wasn’t aware that his suspicions were correct, and simply dismissed them as products of paranoia and sheer disdain for Hei and his inventions.
Keeping quiet as Yuki scolded them, right after congratulating them, Hibiki was well aware he was one of the Captain-Commander’s targets during her speech. Hibiki was no fool, he was hotheaded, but he was not deaf to the side-effects his actions would create. In his mind, he always knew that one day his hatred for Hei would land him in hot water, though he didn’t mind that possibility. As such, he wasn’t all that hurt by Yuki’s speech, he certainly took it into consideration to act more maturely though. Finally the subject matter switched to their hollowfication, something Hibiki hoped would be overlooked. Simply put, Hibiki couldn’t look at Yuki as she stated the bear facts that they were, above all else, soldiers enlisted to do whatever it takes as part of the Gotei 13. Hibiki wasn’t certain if he could do this, and by the time Yuki finished, he still harbored doubts about resorting to his mask, but he’d rather not make those feelings visible.The winds were unleashed

707   Hakase Hei Jūnibantai Taichō
"...allow me to show you a fate worse than death." Throughout the entirety of Yuki's speech, Hei had sat still in his seat and kept his gaze set in his peripheral- towards Yuki- while he faced forward and waited patiently for her to finish. During it, he was unable to muster up and emotional response to her words, though this was because he was well aware of what was going to be said before it was said. It wasn't because she had rehearsed it with him or anything of the sort, but because he knew her best and knew what she was going to tell them. Her wording was a little different than what he predicted, but the content itself was just as he had assumed it would be. As soon as she finished up, he sat still as the silent seconds ticked by, but when he saw that no one had any intention of adding their own two cents into the conversation, he decided his time was better spent elsewhere, namely gathering the other tools that he had left in his room. After a quick glance to Senka, Hei got to his feet as he unfolded his arms and let them fall to his sides and disappear into his sleeves along with his hands. Without a word to anyone, he walked right out of the lobby with his trademark emotionless face and right into the hallway that lead to the staircase; which he disappeared into.
Tsukiko was also unable to bring herself to say anything, nor had she been able to do more than return Elisia's wave with a wiggle of her own fingers just before the start of the meeting. After Yuki had finished up, she watched Hei glance in her direction before getting up and leaving the lobby. After several seconds of more silence, she bowed slightly to her mother before whisking herself and the infant in her arms away to the rooftop where she knew he would be soon. While she waited for Hei to arrive, she entertained her infant sister by tickling her stomach and chatting away senselessly with her. Once he made it up there three minutes later, she turned slightly so that Senka could look in that direction and smiled happily to her while walking over to him. "Look, it's daddy~" Just as she made it next to Hei, she stopped short and went silent, causing Hei to look at her curiously. He was just about to ask her what was wrong when she spoke in a soft voice. "You... take care of yourself out there. Normally I wouldn't worry, but you almost died last time... So... just stay safe, please."
Glancing down as she spoke, Hei's expression softened as it finally made sense why she was so defiant this morning; she was worried about him. "Don't worry." Lifting his hand, he set his palm on top of her head and gave her hair a tousle, causing her to let out a small "hey" in response before he removed it and let it fall to his side. "Just take care of your sister and don't worry about me sweetheart. I'll be fine" Lowering his gaze to Senka- who was looking up at him while wringing her hands together- he flashed her a smile that sent her into a fit of giggles. "That's my girl." He said with a small laugh before rubbing her head as well and turning away, presenting his back to them as he sauntered towards the edge of the roof, muttering something to himself as he did so. "My right hand is the stone that bridges worlds. My left hand is the blade that binds reality. The black-haired shepherd is hung from a chair. Stratus clouds come, and I strike down the ibis." He spoke the last word just as he was getting ready to step off the edge of the roof, and as his foot hovered in the air, he snapped his fingers, creating a sizable Garganta that ripped open across the sky just in front of him. Without changing his pace, his foot landed on a newly formed panel of Reishi within the Garganta that he proceeded to walk across as the opening snapped shut behind him and faded away to leave a seamless sky.

博士雪
Ichibantai Taichō
Upon catching the sight of something moving in her peripheral, Yuki glanced to the side to watch Hei stand up, and then followed him out of the lobby with her gaze. A moment later she watched Tsukiko leave as well, wondering if she was going to take Senka to the roof or not. Initially she had decided that it was too cold for Senka on the roof, which was why she wanted their meeting in here. However, during the silence before Hei's departure, she had let her mind wander and had realized that Tsukiko let off more heat than normal body temperatures, so if Senka was held in her arms, she should be fine. Thinking back, Yuki wished she had realized this beforehand so it wouldn't be such a hassle to see everyone off. Yuki waited a bit longer, and when no one said anything or attempted to interject with their opinions, she exhaled and rose to her feet before clearing her throat. "Well then. If no one has anything valuable to add, then you are dismissed. From the meeting that is; we're leaving right now."
With this, she exited the lobby in a swift fashion, and trudged up the stairs until she reached the roof, opening the door just in time to watch the Garganta snap shut and take Hei with it. "Impatient man." Letting out a small sigh, Yuki sauntered over to Senka and Tsukiko, and once there she kissed both of them on the cheek in quick succession. "You make sure to keep her safe, understand? I don't expect this to take all day, but you never know. And you, my little angel, you be good for your sister. Okay? Now, I love you both, and I'll see you when this is all over." Yuki probably could have said when we get back, but considering they probably wouldn't pop back right away, that would just mean they'd have to wait longer than necessary. Yuki was well aware Tsukiko would be watching through someone's surveillance bacteria and would come over when it was all over, so she wouldn't even have to bother with retrieving them.
Giving both of her daughters a smile, Yuki moved her hand to Tsukiko's hair and ran her fingers through it before tucking it behind her ear in a motherly way. "Got to keep it straight sweetheart. See you later." With this, she turned away and approached the area where the emergency Senkaimon was located up here. Moving her hand to her katana's hilt, she tugged the cold steel from it's prison and stabbed it in mid-air, causing the blade to sink into a pulsing fog-like area of white. She then turned it like a key to call forth a pair of sliding doors. As she put her katana away, the doors slid open, revealing a second pair of doors that also slid open. As the second set split apart, Yuki was bathed in a bright white light that created a second shadow at her feet. Waving to Tsukiko and Senka, Yuki slipped inside and disappeared into the light as she made her way back to the Soul Society. Unlike usual, the Senkaimon remained open, which it would until it was closed on the other side by a second party. The winds will blow their own freshness into you,xxxxxxxx
And the storms their energy,xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
While cares will drop off like autumn leaves.xxxxxxxxxx [Edited: I changed "probably would pop back" to "probably wouldn't pop back."]

|400|Masashi, Lee, Gobantai Taichō"Hold it together. Birds of a feather. Nothing but lies and crooked wings. I have the answer. Spreading the cancer. You are the faith inside me. No, Don't, leave me to die here. Help me survive here, alone. Don't Remember! Remember! Put me to sleep, Evil Angel. Open your wings, Evil Angel. I'm a believer. Nothing could be worse. All these imaginary friends. Hiding betrayal. Driving the nail. Hoping to find a savior. No, don't, leave me to die here. Help me survive here, alone. Don't Surrender! Surrender! Put me to sleep, Evil Angel. Open your wings, Evil Angel. Fly over me, Evil Angel. Why can't I breathe, Evil Angel?"
Lee had spent the initial bit of silence he was allowed thinking about the choice he had to make. He basically had it all made up with some help internally from Nami when Nu's voice came out next to him in a whisper. Opening her eyes to take in his close friend's beauty Lee just stared at her quietly for a moment before his lips moved to part and form a whisper as well. "I wouldn't dream of it Mitsuru-taicho." His golden orbs were searching her eyes for something that he was unaware of for a long moment or two. He felt a strong pull towards her that just kept getting stronger the longer they stood next to each other. The desire to reach out and caress her face was almost irresistible. Waiting while they stood staring at each other he was broke out of his trance by her suddenly speaking up again. Doing something afterward? That actually sounded very intriguing. In that silent moment Lee made the choice he had been planning to put off until after the battle just in case.
Reaching out an grabbing her arm that was still her flesh he gently pulled her behind him and out into the hall where they could have a little bit of privacy. Then stopping near the wall he turned towards her and let his right hand softly caress her cheek near her mouth before he closed the distance. The kiss he planted on her lips was long and filled with passion until he finally pulled back letting his teeth playfully bite her lower lip. "Yes or something." Giving her a small smile he knew the moment was not meant to last as it was quickly time to leave. Looking up towards the roof Lee let out a sigh. "It's time to go Mitsuru-chan. Be careful and make sure you come back in one piece so we can do this a thousand times more. Alright?" Then with one final quick kiss he quickly made his way to the roof stopping just outside of the Senkaimon and turning his head to look at Tsukiko and Senka. "I'll make sure Elisia-taicho makes it back to you alive Tsukiko-san. Good bye." With the last phrase, that was his way of apologizing for anything he had done and not specifically apologized for, Lee entered the Senkaimon with the intent of keeping his word.
|Exit|
(The decision was chosen in the same way all good decisions are chosen.....with a random dice roll. ^.^)
"Sacrifice through Danger and Pure Love. That is what the Lily of the Valley symbolizes."

Akane Itsuki, Third Seat of Division Three Riku Ryuu of the Black Mist Mountains Akane recognized Yuki's silence as her not being in the mood to speak but also recognizing that he had greeted her. He listened as she began her pre-war speech, a common thing among General's that went to battle with their warriors. He did not know Tomomi, so he had the relief of not having to feel the grief that others felt when they realized he was gone. When Yuki had begun to scold him, Akane had a small feeling he was not one of those being scolded, but also hoped that he wasn't. He did his best while they were away; training, exercising, and trying to learn better fighting tactics with Suzu. As he thought about Suzume, he bounces her on his back which woke her up quickly. Suzu was rather out of the loop still, but listened as Yuki continued.
Akane follows behind the Sōtaichō, and wondered where his own Taichō was at the moment. He holds on to Suzu tightly, walking through the Senkaimon, and awaiting what he would see on the other side. He left without speaking to anyone else, or even looking to another person. In his heart, he thought to himself that looking at their faces one more time would only hurt more when he possibly saw one in a coffin.

Mitsuru Naohito
☾Nibantai Taichō ☽
Rest your head now, warrior
I won't let them come
Slaying all those who oppose
To the rhythm of the drums

It didn't look like anyone was going to argue with Yuki's speech, since eveyone seemed to get up. She announced that it was finally time to reclaim what was theirs. Hei was, of course, the first to leave, with his daughters going after him soon after. She would herself go soon after conversing with Lee. Yuki was the third to leave the room, fourth if including Senka, but Nu hardly had time to think on that. Her head was snapped back into Lee's eyes as he answered, reassuring her small fears as her body was lurched with him as he dragged her into the hall. He was never a man to do these sort of things so she could only wonder what his game was. "What's all this ab-Mmmph?!" Her voice was once filled with slight curiosity about his actions, but her mind had soon grown blank with his next move. Before she could say anything about it, his hand was already placed on her cheek, a surprisingly passionate kiss following it. Time stopped for her, and yet, when they separated, it seemed it only lasted for a few seconds. It was quite some time since they had kissed, and the electrifying tingling was still there, a sensation she could grow used to......
"Y-yes, let's.......do it again?......."
Her head followed the man as he exited the hall to the roof, but not before one last kiss, leaving her alone in the hall, her mind clouded with swirling emotion. Oh what the hell?! Focus woman! Focus! Her hollow was the lone voice of reason, Tenka going furthur into the recesses of her psyche, yet Nu could hear faint laughter over the incident. A hand resting on her lips, she could still feel the faint heat of his lips, the scent of him still lingering about her. "He......he.....he chose now to do this?!" It was easier to focus when she was enraged so she turned this into a more aggressive perspective. "Kissing me before the battle, the nerve of him!" Huffing to herself, she began walking down the hall to the staircase, her mind getting clearer and clearer. He chose me........heh, wait until I tell Elisia... She could only imagine her expression when she tells her of the news. Would her face pull into a smile for congratulations, or a mixed reaction due to her friendship with Nu's once "rival" of sorts Eriko? It didn't matter, as this was not the time nor the place to think of anything not relevant for the battle. By the time she was climbing the stairs, her mind was clearing all thoughts but the techniques and moves she might employ. She was going to live through this, this was for certain. By the time she was on the roof, a Senkaimon was already opened for her, Hei's two daughters simply standing, most likely to watch them all go.
"I bet Senka's gonna really enjoy the Seireitei......"
With a wave, she too walks through the open doors, wondering just how much could be salvaged from her old office. If nothing else; she could certainly work up a good sweat from this.

⋆⋆⋆∥ ＨＡＫＡＳＥ xＥＬＩＳＩＡ
☇【 ｙｏｎｂａｎｔａｉxＴＡＩＣＨＯ 】 Elisia had seen her sister move next to her, but feeling that speaking would be inappropriate since the meeting was starting soon, she merely patted her sister’s head. It was soon after that Yuki began to talk, covering several important details about the upcoming battle – the fact that it would be hard to hurt Ori and Zenos, Zenos’ immortality, their childish manner of addressing certain things in as well as the use of the Hollow powers that had been given to them. The first, second and last issues did not directly relate to her, since she was not intending to fight Ori or Zenos or anybody in particular and she didn’t have Hollow powers in any case. However, she was unable to stop herself from wriggling uncomfortably at the third. While she wasn’t entirely childish, she had the idea that she might need to fix up certain aspects of her behaviour. A reminder of the painful encounter and talk with Hei jolted into her mind and she made a silent promise to fix that. Exactly how she was going to do that was a different story altogether. Out of the corner of her eyes, she noticed Hei leaving for one reason or another but she did not say anything to that as well as staying silent over what Yuki had said. There was nothing that would be useful to add, merely nonsense if she attempted to say something. She was a little surprised, however, when Tsukiko and Senka left, but then again, that was most likely to follow their father.
Her focus shifted back to Yuki then, as the woman had started to talk again. With the dismissal having been voiced rather firmly, she observed the others leaving, especially Lee pulling Nu. Her heart seized at that thought and with the idea that Lee might have chosen Nu after all, there was happiness and yet some pain digging within her. She had known it from the beginning that no matter who Lee chose in the end, there would be one of her friends left out in the dark. Letting out a sigh at the morbid thought, she resigned herself to simply acting as happy as possible for Nu, while consoling Eriko. It was hard sometimes, having two friends that loved one man. Seeing that it was about time for them to go, she ruffled her sister’s hair once more, answering Suzume’s previous look, “I’ll be fine, I think. It’ll go away eventually.” With that said, she made her way slowly up towards the rooftop, where the Senkaimon to Seireitei would be. In her, there was some aspect of worrying, which was slowly fading to small noise in the back of her mind, and dread about what might happen. While she was mildly cheerful, she did not take much pleasure in this upcoming fight as she had seen too many people injured and killed in fights and she didn’t see exactly why people enjoyed such things. Casting her eyes upon the Senkaimon, she firstly crossed over to her wife, lightly pecking her on the cheek with a smile on her face. “You look after yourself, alright, Tsuki? I’ll see you after all this is done~!” After that, she walked towards the Senkaimon, pausing a brief second as she turned around and waved to both Senka and Tsukiko before she walked through and towards their home – Seireitei.
