Welcome to Gaia! ::

Aizen, Gin, Ichimaru and Diablo where the four individuals that would meet up with these characters, little did they know Aizen already had plans for each and every one of them, and Diablo was going to lay down the first card within his massive deck of plans. The black dunes where several miles away but already he could sense the three specks of Shinigami off atop the hill. Growling as he soundlessly blurred through the air, sand kicking up behind him as he lazily held his arms out to steady and balance himself in the air. Gradually he began to descend towards the soft sand again, looking down at the ground he chuckled as he tapped one foot against the air beneath him, concentrating it into solid and with that he blurred up into the air, small explosion erupted above the air sending air up towards Diablo in a funnel. As he reach the peak of his jump he kicked at the air again, launching himself forward several stories above the ground and above the Shinigami’s position. Flipping forward as he soundlessly soared through the air he kicked with both feet above his form and another explosion erupted, but only six stories above the Shinigami. Within a blink of an eye he landed on his back on the ground creating an explosion on the other side of the dune. As the black sand was sent up into the air he quickly rolled to his feet, he quickly unsheathed his Wakizashi, and slid the blade across his thumb; dark red blud dribbled along the blade as he flicked it towards the group. As the sand fell, he began charging a Gran Ray Cero, it glowed a brilliant yellow from the dark sand.

Another second later and the sand faded away revealing Diablo, with a full Gran Ray Cero charged at the tip of his blade. A devilish grin played across his dark lips as all sound became absent, replaced by the deafening roar of the powerful Cero. In Diablo’s defence this was a lazy attempt to get them back onto their feet. It was apparent that he put little effort into his Cero as it spread over a wider area weakening it’s lethal ray. His right hand tucked into his black Hakama’s At first… he could have been mistaken for a SHinigami, except for the two holes in his chest.

The sky had darkened as the Cero was fired but as the last portion of ray glassed the sand where the Shinigami stood the sky returned to it’s eerie gray color. Chuckling he continued to point his blade towards the Shinigami, letting his senses scan the area quickly for their positions. Laughing he yelled out, ”I’ll only say this once Shinigami, survive for thirty seconds, and you will have your audience with Aizen.” Flourishing his blade back into it’s sheath he blurred from view only to appear atop the smoldering and freshly glassed sand. It cracked benieth his weight and completely shattered when he flexed his riatsu; Chuckling his eyes where half lidded and his looked completely un-amused with his situation. ”I’ll even wait for you to get ready.”

Simply enough Diablo grunted as his eyes shot wide, before he knew it he was eviloped within an Orb. His eyes shut and he simply listened to what Ezru said. He huffed and a smik crossed his dark lips, opening his eyes he looked at the other man and folded his arms over his chest, ”Neat trick…” Looking at his Cero simply get washed away like nothing became slightly frustrating and he could feel the fire within his chest begin to grow. Looking slowly back at Ezru he shut his eyes and focused his Rietsu into the shape of a bubble around his own form and just inches away from the barrier of the dome. Growling he built up his own spiritual pressure until he could barely control it. With a final heave he pushed the concentrated energy in all directions attempted to break the domes seal on him.

Breathing heavily he panted as he hovered above the ground, using his Espíritu Estrangular to keep him afloat. Chuckling again he let his Rietsu drop below normal and as he did so he floated back to the surface of the dome until he was in a kneeling position. His eyes shut and his head bowed as he waited a moment to reply to Ezru, making sure not to interrupt him, ”Idiot… You think I would be so dense as to question my lords authority?” Shaking his head he continued to let his body rest in place, his voice calm and somber; ”You shinigami sure come to quick conclusions…” He chuckled quietly to himself before he finished. ”Anyways, Aizen will be here shortly…”

DIABLO:
Diablo looked to them with an un-amused look as both began to smile, he had ignored their words simply because he found both just as intelligent as the sand. They only had the power of the watch, nothing else could stop him from tearing both apart if that damned watch wasn’t in his way. His eyes still shut he felt Aizen, then Ichimaru, then Tosen, all where coming towards them even faster than Diablo had traveled. Looking off towards the distance he knew that it’d only be a mater of a second before the watch would be deactivated. Opening his eyes he looked at the two men, his face lost of expression, ”Neal.” He stood quickly within the orb then quickly took to a knee and bowed his head, ”Because if you don’t show Aizen respect…” Looking up from the top of his vision, ”Or I’ll kill you both where you stand.” Then he lowered his head as all sound vanished.

AIZEN:
He had seen the scanner, his vision reached out far into Heuco Mundo, there was never a moment when he didn’t know if Las Noches was being approached or not, but this was different. These Shinigami had approached him quickly and efficiently. Sending a Hell Butterfly to let him know that they wanted to join his ranks. Aizen was never one to deny aid to his own cause; not many shinigami where intelligent enough to see that they would eventually be outdated tools, and replaced with new ones. Aizen was simply updating himself by learning all that he could about the Arrancar and Hollow race. Perhaps new minds would refresh his own…

The door had simply been slipped open only a mater of two feet before he and the rest of his comrades had disappeared from view. The Black Dunes where only a mater of six miles away from Las Noches, and with only a straight shot it would only take them a mater of a few steps before they would appear before the three shinigami and the imprisoned Diablo.

It was only a half second that he’d spotted them in the corner of his eye, but quickly he took a gentle step and at blinding speeds appeared before the small group, his blade drawn and pointed at Ezru, a small smile spread across his face, ”Please deactivate…”

TOSEN & ICHIMARU:
Both men had been only a mater of inches away from Aizen as they traveled through the vast white desert. Either man already knew the plan, it would appear as though their time together made them the perfect team, all acting as one body, a perfect combination. They had split apart from Aizen; Ichimaru to the left while Tosen went right; however they both appeared at the same time with the blades sissored across the back of Ezru’s neck. Gin simply smiled as he always did and Tosen held no expression, common for himself…

AIZEN:
Aizen had been cut off as both men executed a perfect pin, he finished as if he didn’t notice the two appear, ”That watch.” Aizen only cleared his throat to send orders to Diablo, hinting that the other man had to be taken care of.

DIABLO:
Cero Espada simply lifted his head and pushed out with his mind, all of his calmed energy had been focused into the ball but now it was out side of the ball, if his body his trapped his mind was obviously never to be trapped, this was proved by a simple feeling that a clawed hand had been pressed against Asuma’s shoulder. His Espíritu Estrangular allowed him to use his Spiritual Energy as an extension of his physical body… it was what he was known for. It was a simple threat and a sign to show that both Shinigami had remained at his mercy. Diablo was always the one in control… He chuckled as he knew that his Spirit was free of this damned watch…
