Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was difficult indeed watching all of this happen. Nagi's eyes remained on the screen, watching the red markings appear. If it was as bad as Ryan was saying, then he'd have no choice.

"We could send Suri, my Lieutenant." Nagi suggested. "She is highly skilled and remarkably intelligent. I think she could hold her own against a lower ranked espada. If Tansen is already there then they can assist one another. As for the rest of the squad, there are only three members that are left and they are fairly new as well. They do not know shikai but are trained in some pretty strong Kido. Even so, I do not like the idea of one joining another rank by himself. Keeping them together may be a good idea since they cannot be evenly split. Though you say it can put a lot of strain on the user, these guys are made to work under pressure. I think they can handle it. If they are grouped together or evenly distributed in the rear, their distance attacks and barriers would prove effective for assisting those who are ahead of them."

Though Nagi sounded very confident, he was a bit nervous of electing Suri for the job of going alone. He knew that she'd be all up for it but there was still that possibility that it could be too much for her. If he were to send her and she were to somehow get injured or killed, it would be his fault once more. Another important thought that came to mind was about that hospital. Just what was so important about it? Something about the whole thing just didn't seem right to Nagi. Having all these hollow and arrancar appearing everywhere around the real world was probably just a diversion to keep them away from where Yuki and Onalim were being held. So was this hospital also another diversion as well? Perhaps that could be another reason for his adjutant to go. He trusted her enough to have the common sense to leave if things got too bad. If Ryan agreed to send her, then Nagi would just have to rely on faith.

Nagi nearly jumped as Maxi made himself known. He had no idea that anyone else was in the room a the time. He nodded as a greeting to the man as he approached and delivered another item that he had stashed inside his coat. For a moment, the funny thought of objects being manifested inside that coat flashed through Nagi's mind. It wouldn't have been surprising nonetheless.

((I am aware of what the hospital is used for but Nagi doesn't because he was passed out for a good amount of time. ))

Nagi nodded. He was glad that his visit was no waste of time. Remembering the promise he made to his division, he wasn't going to turn back on it for a second. He liked this idea of allowing them to use their abilities to help others but he was still a bit nervous about exposing them to such an intense battle to start. Well... there was no choice in the matter really. They wanted action and now they were going to get it.

"Thank you Ryan." Nagi said as he turned away. He then paused for a moment as he headed for the door. "And hey... I'm glad you're still alive."

With that last cryptic message finally spoken, Nagi was out the door and headed back to his own division.

Appearing inside the doorway, Nagi's chest heaved in and out. He had shunpoed all the way from his division in order to get here in haste without being spotted. Unfortunately, he was only seconds too late for he was now standing before an empty room. Even though he knew it was empty, he couldn't help but say something. Just in case...

"Ryan?!" he called, cupping his hand to his mouth to amplify his voice. It echoed back to him, practically saying "he isn't here, stupid!"

Nagi waited a moment before letting out a sigh. Figuring Ryan couldn't have gone too far, Nagi began to clear his head once more. There was at least the option of tracking his friend. Hopefully he wasn't going to have to break out the white chalk. That would have been a bit time consuming. Every second mattered at this point. Within seconds, Nagi felt a sudden pulse of Ryan's riatsu. Luckily it wasn't too far away.

Stepping away from the building, Nagi headed for his new direction.

((Sorry, quick post... I'm in a rush. XD (EXITS))

Just seconds later, Nagi appeared in the doorway. Though his right eye was no longer swelled in its eagerness to cause destruction, he still looked as serious as he was before- just lacking the chill. He didn't say a thing as he watched Ryan begin to navigate his maps and mumble to himself. Figuring his voice would just distract the guy, Nagi began to take advantage of the silence and began going over his breeching plan in his head. Leaning against the door frame, Nagi placed his hand up to his chin in thought.

From what he had heard earlier, there were two espada present in the area but there were enough captains to hold them back. Suri was also there so Nagi could rely on her for a little help. Hopefully he wouldn't have to stop and explain what he was doing. Making her worry was the last thing he wanted to do. It would have been worse if she wanted to go. She was strong and was capable of holding her own in a fight, but if something were to happen to her because of this risky, reckless plan then he'd never forgive himself.

As for getting into the building, Nagi figured that the quickest and closest entrance to that open rift would be their best option. If they had to blast a hole through a wall just to get to it then he'd have no problem with that either. It was just unfortunate that he didn't have a clue what this place looked like nor did he know where the rift was located. Hopefully Ryan was already aware of the building layout. Even though the guy hadn't been there, he seemed to have enough maps and equipment to navigate his way through just about anything. If it really came down to it, Nagi could also use the tracking kido. In all, I didn't matter how they were going to do it just as long as it got done quickly.

Nagi listened intently. Everything Ryan had to say made sense though he was a bit weary of the idea of brining someone else along. Though Ryan was correct about the fact that might need a healer, Nagi's mind was opposite of that. It was simply because it was the way Nagi was. Then again, he did come to Ryan with a good reason. He'd be an idiot to refuse any suggestions by the man he consulted for help. He didn't say anything but nodded in agreement.

As for the second question about navigating their way through Las Noches, Nagi simply let out a sigh and gingerly held his left hand to his chest where the silver locket dangled under his shirt. Nagi was always one to follow a strong feeling for something. When he became a shinigami, he first relied on strategy but as time went on, he began to follow his intuition a lot more for it proved to be more effective to his cause. Also, finding someone else meant that they'd have to take the time to look, and Nagi was pressed for time. On top of that, was still nervous about dragging more people along. In this case, he had a gut feeling to just trust his instincts.

"I'll be able to feel her..." he said, knowing how silly he may have sounded. "My heart will lead the way... You'll just have to trust me on this one."

((I'm assuming this is possible since in Bleach, everyone could feel each other's presence and such... They also used it to find each other too.))

Staring blankly out a window, Nagi listened in silence to his friend's concerns. He fully agreed to them, but only to a certain extent. This was mostly because his head seemed to have some kind of forcefield around it, repelling all negative thoughts at the time.

I cannot be afraid. Yuki and Onalim's lives may depend on it.

There was no doubt that Nagi was sounding like a crazy person- suggesting that they just follow his feelings. Thinking of going into a hostile situation with no well thought out plan was just plain stupid. There were so many chances of this plan going wrong yet Nagi was more than willing to still going to do it anyway. He was sure that he trusted Ryan just as equally as Ryan trusted him. With Ryan's intelligence and Nagi's intuition, they'd be unstoppable. Somewhere in the back of Nagi's mind, a positive voice was telling him that nothing could go wrong. They just needed to keep their faith.

"Now would be a good time." he said, glancing over to his friend with a slight grin.

((Nagi follows him. razz [Exits] ))
