Welcome to Gaia! ::

Seeing Rin-chan and Ky support him in his charge, as well as the shinigami who were all fighting for the sake of peace all around him, Xeion felt a renewed zeal and determination spark within his heart. All this support for him inspired him and made him more and more determined to get the job done as quickly as possible. It was, after all, his duty towards the fallen, as well as the living, to put a stop to that gigantic Hollow's rampage before it can let out yet another destructive blast again. He won't fail lest he wanted to have more of his comrades die.

"Thanks, I'll get to it!" Xeion shouted, slashing Hollows left and right until he was at the gigantic Hollow's base. It was so massive that it could have been easily mistaken for a Menos Grande, however, the overall body structure was the very thing that differentiated the two species of Hollow. Raising Elena up high, he gazed at the thing then spoke. "May you find happiness in your next life."

Xeion pushed off from the ground, running at top speed. He jumped up to the gigantic Hollow's hand but didn't attract attention, surprisingly. It must've been so big that it might have thought that Xeion was just an insignificant piece of debris from all the shots it was firing. However, this 'piece of debris' might prove to be the very cause of its downfall.

He made his way up, running by the arched back of the gigantic Hollow, using the contours of its spine as a base for his foot as he jumped from one place to another until he was already at its head. Xeion looked down and saw that the giant one was just about ready to let out yet another Cero blast, but this time, it aimed at the place where Rin-chan, Ky, and the other shingami were. He had to act fast as it was just about finished charging it.

As he was about to stab Elena through its head, a random, flying Hollow crashed onto his back, making him fall on the ground with a loud thud. It took him a few seconds to realize that he fell and struggled to stand up, however, Xeion looked up and saw that the behemoth had already charged its Cero enough to shoot it. Xeion just stood there with widened eyes. He couldn't believe that he just failed the mission that he was supposed to do and was now powerless to stop the gigantic Cero that was about to shoot out. Was his talk just talk and no action? Was he too weak to actually make a difference?

"No, no, I won't let it!!!" Xeion shouted, releasing reiatsu energy so powerful that it blew the surrounding Hollows away with a devastatingly powerful gust of wind which resulted from the sheer release of massive spiritual pressure. Xeion's body was radiating with a mix of his own power and the cosmic power of his zanpakuto, Elena. "You will not take anymore lives!! I, Xeion Kuchiki, Vice Captain of Squad Nine shall not permit it!!!" Xeion shouted with all of his might, jumping up to meet the Cero beam as it shot out of the Hollow's mouth even though he was but a mere one-tenth of the giant Cero's size. He raised his sword, now writhing fiercely with cosmic and reiatsu energy and swung down with all of his might, Elena's blade making contact with the surface of the powerful projectile.

The sheer clash between two, massive forces of great power cracked the ground beneath them. Their clash, building up so much pressure that even all the trees within a 50 meter radius got flattened. Finally, Xeion's power managed to overpower the gigantic Cero blast wherein Elena's blade split the Cero vertically, sending the right half to a group of Hollows just beside its initial target site, obliterating them and safeguarding the lives of his comrades, while the other one was sent to a Menos Grande, newly spawned from the portal, crashing onto it and dealing major damage, causing it to forcefully retreat as soon as it came out.

As for the giant Hollow which shot the gigantic Cero, as soon as Xeion was able to split the giant energy projectile in half, he immediately opened a Dark Mirror and entered it, reappearing just inches from the giant Hollow's face. With unimaginable speed, impossible for normal shinigami without intense physical training, Xeion proceeded to slash the giant Hollow innumerable times with his natural attack speed, topped off with the effects of his zanpakuto's shikai's second stage giving his, already lightning-fast, speed a bigger boost, made his sword slashed too fast to follow.

When his feet reached the ground, the giant Hollow's body opened wide in a spray of blood, however, Xeion hadn't finished with it yet. With it being unable to sustain its massive weight due to the heavy damage it just took, the giant Hollow began to fall down. Xeion closed his eyes and started chanting a short prayer for the soul of the gaint Hollow as well as the other Hollows that he had slain previously. With the Hollow's gigantic body now a few meters away from falling down on him, Xeion stabbed the ground then shouted with all his might, transferring the built up energy stored inside Elena onto the ground then uttered, "Amen!!"

Suddenly, a large pillar of blue light shot out from the ground he just stabbed, hitting the giant Hollow's body, sending it up along with it with the sheer release of the powerful energies which made the azure pillar, sending the Hollow's body higher and higher into the sky. Then, with a loud bang, the giant Hollow exploded into small, blue orbs of light which fluttered back down to the ground as if they were snowflakes in winter. Seeing this, Xeion stood up and held Elena towards the sky, signifying that this was, indeed, his way of honoring the dead. "That was a farewell gift to thank you all for your sacrifices. Fallen comrades, may you all rest in peace." Xeion muttered, now sporting his usual smile as he stared up at the sky.

((Tell me about it. -_-))

((Somewhere near a hospital, here is the info: http://www.gaiaonline.com/guilds/viewtopic.php?t=13682739 ))

((...Yua says no thank you o.o;... Also, I thought there was a PLOT hospital thread. Aren't we suppose to be there? XD just wonderin' ))

[[You brought this on yourself. stare ]]

The countless hollows were being slaughter one by one by the Shinigami and Bount human army but the suddenly the mere simple hollows began to become more aggressive as they fought of the Shinigami even killing multiple Shinigami and humans,it was as if they began to acknowledge themselves working more like an complete army instead of individual beings.It was then that real chaos would fall over the city as now the hollows worked together to overpower the Bounts and Shinigami."GRAAAUUHH"Multiple roars could be heard from multiple location which had now been filled with corpses covered in blood,the hollows continued their rampage on the Shinigami until they met their end by the massive Cero blast which the Shinigami Xieon had split in two separated shots frying them to a crisp before they turned into spiritual particles and disappeared into thin air.

A few minutes new Shinigami troops had arrived annihilating almost every hollow they could find which went surprisingly quick as if all of the hollows had just suddenly disappeared,looking around they still couldn't find any other entity."We did it!!"Shouting their lungs out of their chest they celebrated out loud giving each other hugs and hands shakes happy that they had survived the war,but what they didn't know was that this war was far from over.Minutes after the celebration had started extremely dark thunder clouds began to gather blocking out the moon for a moment completely covering the area in darkness,noticing this the troops began looking upwards towards the sky questioning what was happening,they had never seen anything like this before."I cant see anything..better inform captain Ky about this."The leader of that troop said as he pulled out a headset with an mic compatibility from his bag and set up an direct line with the Bount that had fused with his doll."Sir what is happening?"Suddenly from behind the leader a scream could have been heard followed by the sound of squirting blood."What the-"Before he could finish his sentence several other screams could be heard."Sir Sir!! It Something's here! Men kill at will!!"Before the troops could even react countless screams of pain could be heard and multiple sound of heavy dropping objects."What's going o-"Suddenly something that felt like an hand wrapped around the leader's throat cutting of his air supply and lifting him of the ground slowly tightening it's grip on the humans throat/"Help us Ky!!!!"With that a crushing sound could be heard and an unidentified voice spoke through the mic directly at the Bount."You all will suffer the same fate..pitiful beings."With that the transmission had been cut and the clouds in the sky slightly moved apart allowing a beam of moonlight to shine around a circle of 50 meters in radius,revealing an gruesome sight of corpses laid on the floor in a huge pool of blood and in the middle a silhouette of a humanoid being stood there with another human hanging lifeless from it's hand which was wrapped around the lifeless humans throat.

Tossing the human to the side the humanoid being dropped it's arms to the side looking upwards towards the light of the moon emitting an monstrous pressure which cracked the ground around the outskirt area even nearby hollow were forced unto the ground caught in the pressure of the mysterious being.

((Well, time to lay on the floor under the pressure and play dead.... XD))

One moment, Dias had been slaughtering hollows, the next, complete darkness. The moon had been covered by thick black clouds, leaving a darkness so thick that you could almost feel it weighing down on you. What is going on? He thought, pulling up his blade to guard himself the best he could in the absence of light. He could feel the reiatsu of the few surviving hollows, assuring him that they were not near him. Screams were heard all around, it seemed that something or someone was using the cover of darkness to take advantage of those fighting. What the hell is doing this? He thought, being answered by a ray of moonlight. The creature stood there, holding the body of one of the human soldiers before tossing it aside. Almost immediately after, a great reiatsu covered the area. Dias immediately dropped to his knees, gripping the hilt of his zanpaktou in his right hand. After a couple seconds of holding himself from the ground, the pressure, increasing at a rapid pace, quickly forced his face into the ground. He could feel his body being pushed into the ground. His left cheek was pressed firmly against the ground and it was bleeding from the impact. It's crushing me.... Was all he could think, feeling the immense pressure pin him to the ground and beg to flatten him completely. His eyes stayed locked on the creature, barely visible to him in his new position on the ground. He had felt this kind of reiatsu before, and being so powerless against it made the fear that much more real.

[Sorry for such a prolonged absence everyone, I had computer problems.]

Toshiro darted back and forth with his wings flapping as rapidly as possible as he easily cut though the hollows with a slash of his icy blade. He didn't have time to look back and watch the hollows become purified. Gripping the hilt tightly, he began to fly north. Combining reiatsu with his wings, and body... he attempted to do a full body shunpo. A regular shunpo only requires one to lace a layer of reiatsu to their feet in the opposite direction they attempted to go. He allowed some of the reiatsu to lace off his body as he forced it to start from his front and lace backward. A pale blue aura could be seen as it slowly pulsed off his body. Hollows that were surrounding by him began to race toward Toshiro in an attempt to feed off of him.

Continuing to flap his wings heavily, his entire body began to feel pushed forward from the overflowing reiatsu. Everything began to blur as he began to reach speeds that matched a normal shunpo. Pushing himself harder then before, his body felt as light as air as he continued to speed north while cutting the hollows. Then... he heard a loud explosion erupt behind him as he entered sonic speeds. A smaller menos that waited in front of him merely caught a slight glimpse of Toshiro before he thrust his blade out and shot cleanly through the Menos' mask.

Before he could even stop, Toshiro felt a crushing force pulling him into the ground as he was forcefully pulled to a sudden halt. . His wings began to feel heavier as he tried to keep himself up. "What's the source of this?" He asked himself quietly. As he was slowly being pulled to the ground, he searched consistently for the source of the changing gravity. There, standing around was an Arrancar. Toshiro felt a fear flood his body before seeing the comforting sight of Xeion. A veteran Vice Captain, he would quite possibly know what to do.

At the moment, Toshiro was trusted with the duty to protect this area and keep it in possession of Soul Society. At least, until a Captain came along. As he came closer to the ground, pain dominated his feelings as his teammates were being crushed by the sheer force of reiatsu being emitted for the mysterious being. Gathering his strength, he muttered, "Aisu Kage-bunshin." Twenty ice clones materialized form the ground and began to evacuate all shinigami that were being crushed by the the arrancar.

The area began to clear up of innocent people as Toshiro's feet lightly touched the ground. His eyes curiously gazed at the Arrancar, who was still too far off to be seen clearly. The figure did not move upon his arrival, staying absolutely still, like a statue. Toshiro closed his eyes and focused on his breathing to calm his nerves. He could feel his heart beating quickly in his ears, thumpTHUMPthumpTHUMPthumpTHUMPthumpTHUMP Exhaling slowly and repeatedly, inhaling the same way...Toshiro slowly open his eyes and turned his body to face the Arrancar. placing his right foot back facing right and his left foot forward facing the being.

Hearing the footsteps of a few of his ice clones come back, he counted how many there were.One,two,three, and four... He counted quietly in his head. "Surround him, in a 4 point defensive position. No one attacks until I say so..." He ordered his Ice clones. The clones nodded their head and ran toward the arrancar. Staying at least twenty feet from him, they prepared a guarded stance at their ordered positions. Toshiro gripped his zanpaktou tightly with his right hand and raised it toward the arrancar in a careful manner. The blade sparked in the sunlight as he walked closer to the arrancar with precaution. "Who are you?!" Toshiro asked at the mysterious character.
