Fefnir blinked twice, totally at a loss for words. The arrancar that was just about to fight them had just been given clearance to, and he ran away, a second arrancar was told not to interfere, but probably would, and, the piece de resistance, a traitor had appeared in their midst. Still, Fefnir couldn't help but be disappointed that his first fight with an arrancar wouldn't be a fight at all. He wanted to see how fun that fight would be for him. Still, with such an unbelievable amount of power conglomerated in one place, and the odds against himself and Yuki, the best option was to flee. He quietly leaned in toward her, and whispered, "I've got a plan. Follow my lead," With that, he turned and ran at full tilt, using all of the power his Shukuchi would give him.

Naturaly Yuki was stunned at the fact that so many powerful beings where suddenly filling one aria of Kakura town. She didn't speak, but when the first arrancar just packed up and left most of her fear did too. She didn't think they would attack now that the original aggressor left. It was only when Fefnir high tailed out of there that she even bothered to freak out at all.
"HEY AREN'T YOU FORGETTING YOUR GIGAI?!"
She shouted as she ran after him. She managed to find Robin in an out of the way hiding place... in a bar... hitting on chicks... She grabbed hollered at him and told him to drag his gigai butt back to the seretei.

Fefnir, just a short ways ahead, turned, and yelled back to Yuki, "IT'S A RENTAL! I'LL MEET YOU AT MY OFFICE IN SQUAD 9!" He then stepped up his running, getting to True Shukuchi level, and disappeared, leaving to get things prepared for his guests arrival.

Yuki shook her head as Robin finally caught up to her, panting. Obviously mod souls did get tired, even when they where renting other people's bodies. With a defeated look, the poor mod soul looked up at her with a pittiful look.
"Can I have my own body back now?"
Yuki rolled her eyes and stepped into her gigai, forcing out the mod soul. She picked up the pill and stuffed it into the leopard doll's mouth, For a second it's eyes sparked and he looked around, then went still. Good mod soul.. Keep up the act. Stuffing him in her bag she headed to meet Fefnir at his office, obviously not in half as much panic as he was.

Having finally returned from her meeting, she came up from the alley where she had made her exit from Jan's garganta. She closed te portal, as sh looked out. It was around the afternoon, so now it was time to pretend as if nothing has happened. She had been pretty pissed so far and she needed time to vent.
"Ugh, why does she have to be a ******** idiot?"She said, referencing her situation with Rhia. "I'm like... better off alone without on my a** all the time.All she'll end up doing is causing me grief... oh, what am I thinking? Like I could forget her..." She batted her eyes with the palms of her hands.
"..Why isn't anything working out for me? Geez, nothing can't be easy in the afterlife."

Kurai darted lithely from roof to roof, staring rather pointedly at the human activity going on below her. Well, sensing, rather than staring, though her muted gold eyes flicked from face to face as though she might be able to see.
Humans are so strange, she mused, not for the first time, that day. She had watched human children playing in a playground for over an hour. The human's auras appeared dull to her, indistinct flashes of color, but the children's had been rippling happily, the sentiment echoed by their parents on the park benches.
And, the human world was louder than the Seireitei. If Kurai cast out her senses (and she did so quite frequently) she could hear the subtle pounding of a hundred hundred heartbeats. Fast and slow, young and old, and laughs and shouts and the roar of the four-wheeled vehicles that zipped through the streets below.
As she lept the gap between two buildings, she zeroed in on a vibrant aura--definitly not human. It was a purple so dark it was almost black, and it danced sadly--the emotion perplexed her. But that wasn't what caught her attention. No, what caught her eye was the glowing white-blue feather curled inside the purple aura. That was Rhia's soul.
Or a part of it, at least. Kurai's faced twisted with fury as she stalked the figure cautiously. This woman--this thing--appeared to have eaten part of Rhia's soul.

Jan appeared in an alleyway, about half a block from his original portal that Feiy had passed through. I guess I'll just head home and meet Feiy there or something... She's close by, but she's more than capable of handling herself. Oh, a Shinigami's near us too... Must be the usual patrol, so no problems there. I'll just mask my Reiatsu a bit so they don't go into hysterics. Feiy will probably do the same, but I'll maintain this distance for now.
Walking along, heading in the same direction as both Feiy and the Shinigami, Jan could sense the energy of the Shinigami following Feiy movement for movement. ...Is it too late? I don't need to help Feiy... But I might need to stick around and keep that poor sucker from getting massacred! Fearing for the worst (diplomatically), Jan took to hopping across the lamp posts to keep his distance on a side-street. If things got bad, he could always jump the buildings and land near enough to show the Shinigami their place- In a decent manner, of course.

[no worries, Jan ^^ I have littlebick's blessing in this 3nodding ]
Kurai paused in a patch of shadow, lifting her nose like an animal testing the air. There was another aura close by--feint due to its masking its power, but tangible. Again, far more vibrant than a human, it crackled a fierce yellow, flashing like lightning.
Both auras--the deep, deep purple, and the fierce yellow--had the same feel. Kurai instinctively knew they weren't shinigami souls. And their scent... under their personal scents (flowers and what could only be described as lightning-y) was a disturbing tang--bone.
And only hollows smelled like bones. Kurai's lips pulled back from her teeth, and a growl rumbled deep in her throat. But she wouldn't be scared away by these people--not when the woman appeared to have stolen a piece of her captain's soul.
[FYI: Kurai is blind, but she sees auras, which are different than reiatsu. It's why she can sense you, Jan, even if you mask your energies. And, like any blind stereotype, she has ridiculously heightened senses.]

((...Interesting how you made the distinction between the aura and reiatsu levels. I kind of noticed it in the description of the children and their parents' auras, but Jan wouldn't know that he was being detected in that manner. Oh, and "smells like lightning" is a funny way to put it. ^_^ Does your character smell their surface power? If she could get at the core of Jan, he'd smell like "electro-weak interactions" instead!
Since there's not much going on other than Jan following, I'll wait for Feiy's post to see if any further actions need to be made.))

Feiy continued pacing along the side streets, going every which clearly not having a definite destination. Her hands stuffed in her pockets she didn't realize she was being pursued,not by one but two 'shinigami'. Her mind and focus was elsewhere. "Was I at fault for yelling at her? I mean... that would of helped her situation, and even if she couldn't, I could've healed her."
She continue to debate with herself, looking at the ground in a fit of depression. Suddenly, with almost no warning or initiative, she smacked right into a large steel post. She dropped to the ground, being knocked out for a few minutes. She soon roused, sitting up, holding her forehead.
"ugh... had to be on my blind side too.What the hell was I doing here?"She shook her head, trying not to stumble as she got up."Screw this, I'm going home..." She said, walking off, her hand trailing against the building walls to keep her balance seeing that she just gave herself a migraine.

['cause she's blind, she detects all sorts of things that no one else would. she hears a person's heart beating, and she can smell and hear small details that help her put pictures together in her mind. kind of like a really jumped-up bat, but without all the screeching ^^ If she touched Jan, she might feel tingles 'cause of the electrons, but she'd have to really refine her aura sense to get at the core of him]
Distracted by a dull ping, Kurai instinctively whipped her head around as the woman rebounded from a metal post. The sound reverberated, giving Kurai a clear picture of the woman. Not for the first time, she wondered how Rhia would possibly be associated with this person.
Enough sneaking around, Kurai thought, speeding up to keep pace with the woman's long (if slightly wobbly due to her collision) stride. She lept to the top of the metal post in question and slid down its length, dropping behind the deep purple aura. Luckily, the street was mostly deserted. Though Kurai looked human in her gigai and modern clothing, leaping from poles might arouse some suspicion.
"Wait," She called, forcing her features smooth. She tried to think of a way to make the woman slow down. Kurai was never one for tact, so she tried: "Why is there a piece of Rhia's soul in you?"

((Well, I'm certainly interested in seeing how your character develops along those lines later on!))
...Contact seems to be imminent. Feiy's stopped for some reason. Huh. I guess I'll just get closer. There's no indication of our having been detected anyway! Jan jumped from a lamp post to the roof of a shorter shop, making his way from the main street's alleys to the more deserted side street that Feiy and the Shinigami were at. Since he was not in his Gigai, he was invisible to all but to most spiritually aware humans.

Even though she was in her gigai, both of zanpakutou were clearly visible to the human eye. Both of her blades being grated against the walls of the buildings she leaned against. The pain within her head was immense as almost any sound or light irritated her to no end. It didn't help that someone just had to come to her, and try to talk to her.
"I'm gonna give ya 3 seconds to get the ******** away from me, right now. You picked the wrong time chick."She didn't even listen to what the girl had said, what she did know was she WAS talking to her, and that was all she needed to get pissed. She unsheathed both of her zanpakutou, lazily turning around, 'rolling' along the side of the building so she wouldn't fall over.
"1.....2......"

Kurai's every instinct was telling her to run, and run quickly. The woman had turned (she was much taller up close), and the other entity was closing in. This could go very badly very quickly.
Gritting her teeth, she drew herself up to her full five feet two inches, unleashing her muted-gold gaze ['cause she's blind, her eyes, yellow-gold in color, appear frosted] on the woman. She hoped--probably against hope--that her appearance might make her pause if only for a moment. And a moment would be all she needed.
Not bloody likely, She thought as the woman started her count, blades already drawn. "Did you steal a piece of Rhia's soul?" She demanded loudly over the ominous count.
[second FYI of the evening! Kurai's full name is Kuraime Shihouin. She's the younger sister of Yoruichi (no worries--approved by the guild). As such, she looks exactly like her older sister, if only younger and softer. ref!]

((Jan hasn't heard of Yoruichi, nor does he care for the clans... And I doubt Feiy does either. Just a warning...))
Jan came over the tops of the buildings and jumped down to the ground. He was still at his preferred distance of half-a-block, and held his position. It looked like the silly Shinigami had chosen to confront her for whatever suicidal reason. ...It's hard to tell from this distance, but it looks kinda like a little girl... Weird. I'll let Feiy have some fun, but if things get too bad, I'm at a good distance to send in some long-range attacks.
