Sadon stepped out of the Senkai Gate and onto the soft grass of the woods. Looking around he could see some of his squad mates waiting off in the distance. Making his way to them one thing came to Sadon's mind and that was what the hell were they going to do here. Sadon hadn't received any orders to come here. He was just following the rest of his squad. Something didn't seem right about all of this ....
Sadon stepped up and bowed to both men saying, "Congratulations to both of you on a job well done. May I ask, what are we doing here? I haven't received any orders to report to earth from Bull-Sama."

Kaisho sensed another reiatsu in the area, coming from a little way away. As he looked over in the direction he sensed the presence, a familiar face came strolling towards him and Kusari. The smile on Kaisho's face grew wider as he raised a hand, waving it smoothly in the air. As Sadon came closer, he addressed them and congratulated them on their new seating positions. Kaisho felt pleased at hearing somebody congratulating him on his rank, he felt a little embarrassed and a little guilty, because of the respect he had for whom he succeeded.
After Sadon had finished talking, Kaisho lifted his brow and sighed, lowering his head. "Ah yes... those orders." He started, tapping his fingers on the hilt of his Zanpakuto in thought. "Those orders came from the chambers of Central 46. Word goes that any orders that come from them are absolute, and should not be disputed. Not even a captain's orders go above them."
The tapping stopped, and Kaisho rose his head to Sadon once more. It seems that what information he was trying to remember had surfaced from the recesses of his mind.
"I remember a couple of the other squads talking about the mortality rate of Karakura Town being triple of what it should be in this time-period. I didn't have time to consult Captain Katsurou on this, because a Hell Butterfly came with orders directly from Central 46. It must be something quite serious."
Kaisho noticed that Sadon was feeling a little uneasy, his reiatsu was turbulent and lacked the potency he felt on previous occasions. Kaisho placed a firm hand on Sadon's shoulder, a more serious look upon his face. "If it is any comfort... I don't feel quite fine about this either, especially since it this message wasn't issued to Lieutenants and Captains."
Kaisho tilted his head and smiled again. "You needn't worry. You took over my old position as fifth seat, quite comfortably I hear. You also have Kusari and myself here with you. I'm sure we can manage this situation fine."
Kaisho took his hand off of Sadon, and stared at the vast park in front of him. He began to reflect upon the situation, and with the talk of rank, his thoughts touched upon that issue as well. He suddenly spoke, almost forgetting that Kusari had said something prior to Sadon's arrival.
"It is an interesting situation indeed, Kusari-san. I cannot seem to think of who might be causing these problems. But whomever the perpetrators are, they must be very strong or great in number." Kaisho pondered aloud, exhaling a deep breath noisily. "It isn't everyday that the mortality rate here triples...."

The space-time anomalies suddenly grew larger in magnitude to such an extent that they have already become easily visible even to those normal civilians that had nothing to do with it. Luckily, it was night time, and most of the general public was asleep so the Shinigami had no worries of this incident leaking out. However, something else would be leaking out instead -- a battalion of what looked like humanoid figures in pure, white armor, stepped out from the rifts and proceeded in an organized manner out into the world. By looks alone, not one of them looked sinister; in fact, one may even describe them as angelic. One thing about them though was that all of them, male or female, wore protective visors around their eyes, but the reason for this was largely unknown.
Marching down the empty streets, they seemed to be following a route towards an unknown destination. The battalion, although noticing the Shinigami stationed there, ignored them since they posed no threat to them or their plans, whatever those plans were. To them, they were simply innocent bystanders who had no idea of the reasons behind their actions, but seeing as they were just bystanders in their eyes, they felt no need to talk to them as well. The Shinigami were not part of their orders, but should they engage them in combat, they were obliged to fight back.

Herieo's head suddenly popped from the large bush he'd been hiding within, his eyes becoming wide as he stared across the street.. Or at least tried to look across the street. The sidewalks and the street itself was blocked from sight as rows of angelic looking men and woman walked in rows. "Woahh.. Are those things Shinigami too..? Are they like.. the marine force version..?" Confused at the anomaly, he would further reveal his frame from the bush. As he stood, mouth agape, he couldn't help but be confused. "..But.. If they were Shinigami, then they would have arrived like those other guys. This also was the place where the GPS of there weird phone led me. Usually.. They lead me to threats! These things don't look dangerous though.. In fact, they look pretty cool. I like the visors!" Raising his eyebrows, he would quizzically stare at the bodies and masses that ignored him and everything else not directly in front of them. Within a seconds notice, this 'Random Human' was suddenly walking towards the streets, coming into a range that signified borderline contact! Just beside a row of the people now, this 'Civilian' was now attempting to flag one down..?! "Aye! You! White knights from the land of Nor! I happened to notice you guys ripped a hole in my sky and junk~.." Soon after finishing the first half of his statement, he would begin flailing his arms in a comedic fashion. Amongst the movements, there were a few specific pointing s and poses that directed attention to both the anomaly above and the ground where they all began walking. ".. And so, I was just curious.. Where the heck're you guys goin'!? I mean, is there like.. Some party..? I know I wasn't invited but, I wanna go now! If there's a dress code I can go find my knight costume from last Halloween or.." Continuously blabbering on now, he seemed not-so-shy anymore. Already, he was attempting to befriend a single one of them. Herieo could now be seen walking on the outer rim of a single row, talking and facing just one of them; A male one it would seem. As he spoke, he would slowly close the very short distance between the two.. Herieo was attempting to get into the 'Center' of the mass without being noticed. It'd be much easier to follow and find out what was going on if this happened! "If there nice, then I'll be able to follow'em no problem.. Smart thinking Herieo!" Mentally praising himself, he continued to blather on and attempt to meld with the crowd.

After what seemed to be forever, the battalion of white armored beings stopped. All of them fell eerily silent, not even so much as making the simple sound of breathing, as if they were waiting for something or, at the very least, scanning the entire area. Suddenly, they parted from the center, leaving only a single humanoid figure in the middle while the rest formed a circle around it. The figure in the center was different from all the others in the sense that the figure had long, flowing hair of green and it was apparent from the curvature of the armor that the thing was female.
Indecipherable words filled the air as the sound of chanting resonated throughout the entire area. Again, another space-time anomaly occurred. Although this was far smaller than the one from before, it was far more concentrated as if it was summoning something specific. A solid object soon peaked out of the space-time anomaly, accompanied by several bolts of energy. It made the entire area feel as if they were in a bad lightning storm, but strangely, nobody seemed to hear the thunderous sounds coming from whatever it was that they were summoning.
While the figure in the middle was busy with summoning the object, the others around it pulled out magnificent-looking weapons that looked like the result of a spear, a lance, and a machine gun put together. They went into a defensive stance and their armors that were once pure as white changed color into green. From the looks of it, they were protecting the girl in the middle from whatever that may come out from the shadows.

Kusari Korosu
Squad Seven Fourth Seat and Drunkard  As the human ran out from the bushes towards the new army of enemies Kusari merely shook his head. "And it just got even more complex. ******** substitutes." He raised his voice so the ignorant child could hear. "Oi! Human! Get your a** over here. What the ******** do you think you're doing a**-sociating yourself with the enemy." His voice dropped to its normal tone, <******** moron." As the army began to part Kusari saw the central woman. <********. Why do I have to work on my first day as fourth seat. F-M-L." He looked among his present company. "Hey living guy! Do you at least have shikai?" He asked knowing that neither he nor Sadon did, barely knowing Kaisho he could not say much for him though. "I say we focus on taking out the body guards first so we can focus on the central one. Then gang up on her and whatever the ******** they're summoning. Then we finish it all off by giving the human a good beating for his actions." His left hand popped the top off of his bottle as he raised it to his lips, the deceiving liquid poured into his mouth, clearing his mind. He replaced the bottle at his side as he reached into his robes and removed the tanto, he unsheathed it and flipped the blade upside down. "Sadly, unlike Bull-taicho, I cannot kill a man bare handed, only make him beg that I could." He looked to his superior for approval before he went in to fight, making sure that they were in agreement on their priorities.

Herieo's constant, and repetitive, string of questioning was soon answered by.. Chants..?! The boy was slightly confused at seeing the man he'd been mindlessly speaking at (Not too.) turn and begin to speak an indecipherable language! "Wha-.. Um.. What the heck're you guys doin'!" Turning his head, he'd thought he'd found an answer.. Herieo was standing inside of the inner rim of the circle that formed, beside the man as he began to change colors. "Woah.. He's like a chameleo- Wah..?!" Falling over and spilling into the center of the circle's rim, Herieo looked on at the man again to find that he'd conjured a weapon just like the others! He stared on at the odd combination weapons, looking to his thigh areas instinctively.. he'd picked up this habit due to his duel Aikuchi being placed in those locations when in his spiritual form. Drawing his attention to the woman and then item that she'd been summoning, Herieo would stay silent and stay on the ground. All these things were armed, and he didn't wanna start them off.. That was when the voice suddenly came. Peeking through the circle, he caught a glimpse of a man shouting at him.. He could hear all the words, but he ignored his request for him to return to there location. "NO!" Those were the first words he could manage to put out. He couldn't make out the object they were bringing down as of yet, but it might have been a person.. if they stopped a summoning while a person or some important item to be conjured. If it were stopped then it could be lost forever, weakened, or something even worse.. "Dangit.. Don't come inside from the out! You could get stuck. Hell, I don't even know if I'm safe at the moment!" While he spoke, stared at one of there weapons..
Gun.. Lance.. Spear... It was like fricken final fantasy weaponry! "These guys are well armed and we shouldn't engage combat as the first basis of interaction.. Any mistake we make could cause unwanted turmoil.." Gritting his teeth, he began to think. He was safe in his human body as of now but it would be much better if he could contact his friends.. Tetsuya would know how to handle this situation, and Hitsugaya would give that one Shinigami over there a knuckle sandwich for cursing at him.. It seems one third of the group was all that could make it here at the moment.

Kaisho had seen the oddly dressed battalion of strangers emerge from the sky. He watched them closely, curious as to why they were in a place like this. He felt an interest in how they acted in the presence of Shinigami, fascinated at the lack of interest they took in everything but the surroundings. Kaisho could not help but feel reluctancy to attack, since his intuition whispered that they had not done anything untoward; anything worth engaging them in battle over. They formed a circle and suddenly, after much looking around, dispersed and began to perform chants in a foreign tongue to his own.
By this time, Kusari had lost patience with the Substitute Shinigami he had seen lurking around. Kaisho smiled in amusement as Kusari cursed and became a little agitated, moreso than usual. "Kusari-san?" Kaisho began, "Are you not in the least bit intrigued as to what our new neighbours are doing?"
Kaisho looked up at the anomaly above, a calm and thought-provoked stare etched upon his face. He frowned slightly, considering the alternative options to this situation. As much as he wanted to find out what it was these strange beings were summoning, he needed some answers from them. Unfortunately, it seemed that merely talking to them would be futile, since they were only focussed on their task. Kaisho sighed, and looked around the environment at the white-armoured group. If they did not wish to listen to words, then he would have to force them to notice the presence of Shinigami within the area.
Suddenly the atmosphere grew cold, heavy and threatening, as if something was trying to intimidate everyone in the area who could feel this presence. Kaisho had stepped forward, letting his reiatsu fill the air. Kaisho had his eyes closed, but his expression was sterner than it usually was. However, as quickly as the reiatsu came, Kaisho let it smoothen out, opening his eyes with a cold stare.
"As much as we would like to leave you to your own devices, to disregard our presence is sorely ill-advised." Kaisho hollered firmly.

"HERIEO!" A voice rang through the park. Soujirou came flying through the trees in his shinigami form. He pulled out a strange badge/key-chain with a skull on it and front flipped over the knights. Before he landed, he went over Herieo and tapped him on the forehead with the badge. Then he landed a few feet in front of him. "You need these." He said, as he threw the badge and a soul candy dispenser to Herieo. He stared at the knights with weird weapons and the lady knight in the center. "Huh...knights? Lady knights? Can ladies be knights? Are the ladies called knights then, or something else. I mean, some knights are called 'sirs', so would they be madams? ...Wait, how did I get here again?" All of these thoughts were going through his mind when he was potentially in a lot of danger. Idiocy at its best, probably.
"Wait, I remember!" Soujirou thought to himself. "After I was done talking to Evil Sou-taichou, I got bored, so I went to go give Herieo and Tetsuya those things she gave me! And now I'm here. I guess I should have known that Herieo would have gotten into a situation like this...." He stopped thinking about all of these things as he realized that these knights could potentially be dangerous. Really dangerous. At the same time, he didn't know if they were evil or not. Sure, they looked pretty dark and evil looking, but then again, so did most of the shinigami here. "Drunk dude that can't even cut his hair every few months," He said as he was reminded of one in particular. So he decided that he would ask his friend about what to do.
"Hey Herieo! You're out of your body now, and you've observed the situation here longer. So what do you think we should do? Are these guys bad? Bad as in our meaning of bad, not the real shinigamis way of bad. Which probably would be, 'anything that's not them.'" While saying this, he slowly put his right hand on the hilt of his sword. He grabbed his sheath with his left hand so that the sword would come out easily when he pulled it out. He gulped, and waited for Herieo's decision.
((Hey Smeeko. I smacked you in the head with one of those substitute badges, so you're out of your body if you weren't already. If you want me to edit that part out though, tell me.))

Kusari Korosu
Squad Seven Fourth Seat and Drunkard Kusari looked to Kaisho. "We were told to stop the oddities, and this seems pretty odd, so why don't we use the substitutes as bait and let them get a little annoyed to see what they do?" He looked back to the armored circle. "Hey idiots! Attack the chick in the middle before you get killed! Then at least you would have done something useful for Soul Society." His tone returned to normal once more, "Karakura may be their protection area, but the one that arrive first needs a good a** whoopin', and from the way his friend talks I think he wants in on it too."

Herieo, still lying on the ground, wasn't too alarmed when he heard his name shouted. He was even quite happy when he noticed Hitsugaya flowing down from above the knights to release him from his body; It was true that as of late, he'd not been fighting hollows in his spiritual form, cept for seven of the twelve he did manage to slay after first being released. Those seven were purified naturally by his own weapons, but upon reentering the body.. He couldn't figure out how to get out! Hitsugaya was a lifesaver in this case, especially in such a situation.. "Thanks buddy! Now, after such close interactions, I've gathered that they won't fight unless provoked.. That mean's get your hand off your weapon's hilt! There stances are purely defensive, and they seem to be protecting that lad-" His eyes widened as he talked to Oath, noticing that he was no longer where his body was, limp on the ground at the edge of the circle's inner area. Instead, he'd tumbled even farther into the center, only two feet away from the knight lady. He wasn't sure if being close was the right thing to do but.. It was too late to move without any of them noticing. The comforting thing was that he had Hitsugaya with him at the moment.. If they did so choose to attack, he knew how 'excited' he could get to fend them off. But yet again, a voice rang out.. The third time Herieo's attention was grabbed by a Shinigami! He listened to the words of the man, slightly upset at hearing his attitude towards him and his actions.. Was he some sort of insult..? Did he do something wrong already..? If so, then it was too late to stop! Having come up with another theory, he'd suddenly turn to whisper to Hitsugaya alone. "..On second thought, we should probably get ready for combat.. I have a feeling that that aggressive Shinigami over there is gonna instigate some combat.. But don't jump the gun till you see'em go for us. If they attack, I want you to fend'em off of me for a quick few seconds while I get a look at what the heck this girls summoning.." Nodding his head in await of an approval, Herieo would proceed to stand. The two were close to the lady, but not threatening.. Yet.

A rapid clinking sound rang out, warning the Shinigami there of the approaching figure of a man, running as fast as he could, his robe flying out behind him and his sword already drawn. There was no way you could imagine this guy suddenly stopping and waiting to calmly analyse his enemy. No, all he was after was a bit of action and as a Shinigami he took it that anything not dressed in a black robe was pretty much likely to be the enemy of soul society.
When he was just meters away he made a slash, right for the first one of these new enemies, at it's abdomen, he could see. Without a care in the world for the situation or anyone else around him.
A closer look at what was going on would've revealed that Orsumill was, at this time, currently licking his lips. A small habit of his which he didn't even know about, a reflex almost.

"You're really itching to fight these people, aren't you, Kusari-san?" Kaisho laughed. Kusari had a point though, in the sense that this was an odd situation to be in. However, he and his fellow ranked officer seemed to have differing view on how to address the situation. Kaisho's way of stopping the stange occurences was with an assertive attitude, while Kusari wanted to actively stop them with force. It was still unclear to Kaisho what these people were doing here in the first place, and why they took up such a protective position around the lady in the center of the now green-armoured knights.
"Kusari, it might be best for us to keep an open mind for now." Kaisho said after a long pause of thought. "If they saw us as a threat to their actions, it would have been better for them to get rid of us first. Whatever that woman in the centre seem to be summoning, the Knights are preparing to defend against it with those medieval-looking rocket launchers."
Kaisho paused again, this time turning towards Kusari. "I'm not making any orders, but I assume you can see where I am going with this, can't you?" He said calmly.
Just then, he heard the sound of clinking metal, and looked at the direction it came from. He could feel the reiatsu, and from what he sensed, this person was not ready to stopped his hurried advance. Kaisho felt thoroughly agitated with this, but said nothing until the Shinigami engaged the armoured knights. He was probably another substitute Shinigami in the area, though not as keen to wait as the others. Kaisho growled, exhaling a disgruntled shot of air from his nostrils. Kaisho uttered under his breath, only loud enough for Kusari and Sadon to hear. He uttered something that was totally unlike him at all...
"p***k..."

Sadon took a couple of steps away from the group. There was something about all this that didn't seem right to him. Here he was on earth, facing God only knows what and having limited power to defend himself with. This was just not adding up ....
"Ummm ... maybe we should hold off on attacking these things. I thought our orders were to find out who or what is killing these towns people. I think we are seriously out numbered here."

They felt the strange energy in the air as one of the Shinigami came forth, threatening them with a cold look on his face. They did not mind this, however, and chose to raise their own energies, which felt different from both reiatsu and spirit energy. The release of energies from all the knights overpowered the reiatsu being released from just a single Shinigami and the feeling of threat from the surrounding atmosphere simply went away. When that happened, the knights, too, stopped releasing their energies so as not to suffocate the Shinigami there from the presence of such high levels of energy until a lone Shinigami, unlike the rest, and attacked one of the front line knights. Luckily, one of the other knights nearest to the knight that the Shinigami had attacked was able to block the attack, thereby saving the other knight from injury.
Then, the front line knights nearest to the threat spread out and charged at the aggressive Orsumill-san, but only Orsumill-san seeing as he was something that they perceived as a threat for the time being, with the knights behind them standing by and replaced the front line knights until they came back into formation. The knights were fast, efficient, and organized as if following a single consciousness. Their teamwork was magnificent and their reaction times were flawless which matched the strength of their attacks that ripped though the air. However, their main purpose was not to injure nor kill -- they knew that. This was just to let the attacker know that they were more of a match for him and any of his tricks and would disengage as soon as he would retreat or stop resisting. The knights knew that their main objective was to simply do their job there and nothing else. Causing senseless fighting was not part of their plan, but if an outside factor attempts to interfere, then they have no choice but to deal with it.
Data Analysis Name: Knights of Genesis [Green Battalion] Power-level: Third Seat Rank Description: Efficient and well-trained, these warriors have faced insurmountable odds and survived to tell about it through their teamwork and cooperation. They wear lightweight, but incredibly sturdy body armor, allowing them to deal out as much damage as they can take. Their weapon of choice is a standard-issue 'Redeemer', a weapon designed for long-range, mid-range, and close-range encounters. Fighting Conditions: For all Shinigami third seat and below, roll one 100-sided die before posting an attack after you have decided to engage the targets. If you get a value above 70, then you allowed to injure your attackers. If not, then you yourself are injured. Also note that the summoner in the middle cannot be attacked.
