((I'll handle this one, guys. Please, just continue with your RP as usual. I'll find a plausible way to get Rakey-chan out of trouble.)) blaugh
Xeion looked down at his dear little sister, Yuu-chan, and patted her head as she awoke from her slumber. From the looks of it, and from the way her aura felt compared to just a few hours ago, she was already finished with attaining her zanpakuto's shikai stage as was indicated by the powerful amalgam of energies that emanated from her zanpakuto -- both shinigami and Revenant energy. "It seems that took a lot quicker than expected," said Xeion, smiling while he gently lifted Yuu-chan off his lap and placed her standing on one side, proceeding to fix her clothes, and patting off the excess dirt on it, afterward. "I guess it's natural -- you being such a skilled one already."
As Xeion was about to stand up himself, he felt a very strange energy signature approach the area the four of them were in. It didn't take quite long for the energy signature to reveal itself as one that belonged to an Arrancar, but not just any other Arrancar -- an Espada. Right then and there, Xeion knew that the situation was critical -- his worst fear, and possibly Rakey-chan's worst fear, had been realized. Because of Rakey-chan's kindness, she usually put her reputation as a part of the prestigious Espada on the line. The past few times were just simple lucky breaks where Rakey-chan helped the shingami without being found out, but eventually, that luck would soon run out and Rakey-chan would be faced with a dilemma such as this one. Xeion knew that, and of course, had already developed of a fail-safe to address the situation at hand. He just didn't think he'd be able to use it so soon. The Arrancar talked about how Rakey-chan was helping an 'enemy', but what he didn't know was that one of the supposed 'enemies' were willing to help her back. Xeion and Rakey-chan were the same in their desire to help others in need, be they ally or enemy. It was what their hearts wanted and would do so even without a reward in return. However, there is one of those times where both Xeion and Rakey-chan would recieve an unexpected reward from helping other people, thanks to the law of karma. This was one of those times.
"Kindness always gets repaid with kindness."
((Alarico-san, I apologize for doing this. You aren't even supposed to be in here, although it's my fault for not indicating this thread as a temporary double-PRP thread. Please post an exit post and forget this ever happened, okay? Thankies.)) (-^▼^-)d
Not allowing the Espada to say any more than what he had already said, Xeion pushed off with his dominant leg into a shunpo and appeared in front of the Espada, blocking his view of Rakey-chan, training the other shinigami. As soon as he did, Xeion removed his blue shades, the one device that kept the Angra Maniyu, sealed within the eyes of all Revenants, in check, and preventing it from going out of control, and looked directly into the Espada's eyes -- his blood red eyes staring straight into the Espada's own eyes with a gaze that seems to pierce the Espada's soul itself.
"O' pitiful shadow, clothed in darkness; your presence has caused great pain and suffering to those around you. Your hollow soul drowns in your sins...," said Xeion, moving his eyes closer to the Espada's, and his gaze growing more menacing as he did. Xeion then used his left index finger and thumb to widen the Espada's left eye even more, preventing him from closing it so he can experience the full effect of what he was about to do to him.
"I'll show you...what death is."
At that moment, time seemed to stop for both the Arrancar and Xeion. A quick, but massive, surge of raw power surged across the entire base, greater than any of those power levels that were shown at present, as was always the case when Xeion released the seal, even for just a split second. Xeion continued to stare in front of the Espada, his eyes began to act the way they were supposed to act after that incantation. Like a portal to the netherworld itself, it took effect -- taking the Espada, senses and all, on a mental journey to his worst nightmares. With that, the Espada was now incapable of snitching on Rakey-chan, keeping her secret and reputation safe, as he would remember the events as they happened as just a terrible nightmare afterward, seeing as Xeion just used a minuscule portion of the Angra Mainyu's power, a far cry from the World of Nightmares he used during dire situations or when the situation absolutely called for it.
Opening a Dark Mirror, Xeion gently turned the Espada's body around and gently nudged him into a slow walk into the Dark Mirror, designed to transport him to any another location aside from Yokota Air Base. Of course, the horrifying nightmare experience he gave the Espada would finish in just one minute, but by that time, he would already be in a different location, remembering nothing, thinking everything was just a very bad nightmare, including seeing Rakey-chan's supposed 'betrayal' of her vow as an Espada. "Bye bye, Mr. Espada. Take care!" Xeion said while he waved at the Espada who was subconsciously walking toward the Dark Mirror.
With that problem taken care of, Xeion smiled. He soon dropped to his knees, however, as he quickly put his shades back on so as to seal his eyes once again. Xeion now felt like his eyes were burning -- a painful sensation he got from using the Angra Mainyu's power by channeling it through his eyes. Regardless of the pain, however, he felt happy. He would do anything and suffer through any pain just so he could save the people he cared about from getting into harm's way. He was that kind of person. Rakey-chan has helped them out so much on so many occasions, and even comforted him when he needed it the most, so this pain was nothing compared to what she had done to him and to everyone in the Sereitei.
"You sure do like playing the bodyguard...," an emotionless voice rang out as a little girl, about 13-years old, with midnight-black hair, deep, crimson eyes, and wearing a black seifuku with a blood-red scarf, tied around her collar, appeared out of nowhere and looked down at Xeion with an expressionless gaze. Seeing this, Xeion looked up to her and smiled. "It's what I do, mistress. I'm sure Ren-kun and the others does the same for you," Xeion replied, but the girl still showed him an expressionless stare. "Just don't overdo it. Even Ren, Wanyuudo, and Hane Onna know when to lie down and rest."
As soon as the girl finished saying her line, she disappeared from sight, making Xeion smile. "Haha, typical mistress...," murmured Xeion weakly, slowly standing up and began to walk back to the others. Looking at both Rakey-chan and the other shinigami, he waved. "Don't worry, everything is okay now. Mr. Espada said that he's going to go now. Oh, and he told me that Rakey-chan needed to go home as soon as she finished playing with us! Her brothers and sisters are worried about her!" smiled Xeion, hoping that Rakey-chan and the other shinigami wouldn't get worried about what just happened earlier or about the things that happened after that.
Going back to Yuu-chan's side, Xeion smiled at her, putting his hands on her head and ruffling her light blue hair. "I'm sorry if I took so long, Yuu-chan," he said, leaning in and kissing Yuu-chan on her cheek. "You did good, Yuu-chan. You did very good," praised Xeion. "Do you want to try out your shikai now?"

((Yuu-chan, I'm sorry if I logged out so unexpectedly yesterday. There was a black out and I wasn't able to get back on... crying
Oh, and a happy mother's day to everyone here.)) whee

((Oh~ Nice move... >w> You made me think how I wanted to react))
Rakey's racing heart jumped when she felt her foot lose it's place by Minato's kick. Her right leg was being held in place by his arm and her left leg was currently in mid air, as her whole body came towards the ground. She then twisted her torso counterclockwise, so her left arm could catch her before hitting the ground.
She snickered as she brougth her right hand up pointing at his arm which held it's grip on her leg. "Bala," She brought her reiatsu to her fist and flicked a small bala to him, such close distance, such little time. 'Just hurry up and go to sleep already,' she thought. Hopefully, he'd let go of her leg, but just in case if he would move her leg to take the hit, she made sure to make the bala weaker than most others'.
Rakey looked over when she sensed another arrancar in the base. "Who the hell?" She mumbled moving her head as much as she could towards the source. Alarico. "Tch!" she grunted. Moments later, she saw Xeion block him from her view, she was curious to what he was doing, and soon enough, Xeion had opened a Dark Mirror and gently pushed him into it. Xeion then faced them and said everything was alright, but that still didn't ease Rakey's current state of mind on what was happening to Alarico, and what would happen when she went back to Las Noches.

Yuu let her big brother ruffle her hair, as he always does. She wasn't really sure what just happened, but she did noticed Xeion being a bit different than before. As he pulled back after giving her, her kiss, she took her hands and raised them up a bit. She took them and rested them under his shades and ontop of his eyes.
It was strange, Yuu had no relyl idea what she was doing, it was more of an act on instict. She closed her eyes, and let the energy flow through her hands and into Xeion's eyes. "I think you worked to hard, and you made them overheat. Like those one machines people have." said Yuu, as she was reffering to how a home computer heats up. Once she was done, she lowered her hands, and she bent down to pick up her zanpakuto and bunny.

Xeion fell silent at his sister's simple gesture of love. He didn't get to tell her that this was just something normal and that she would experience it too as soon as she learns how to make use of 1/10 of the Anrga Mainyu's power, sealed in her eyes, without loosing control of her sense of self and start running amok uncontrollably, but decided that it would be better if he just kept silent about it this time. He wouldn't want to ruin this precious moment he had with Yuu-chan. He just couldn't. He wanted to feel her concern by the the pure, innocent feeling that it was; and even though what she just did didn't have much of an effect on the pain in his eyes, he smiled, thankful of having such a kind little sister.
Slowly, Xeion wrapped his arms around her. "Thanks, I feel better now," he whispered, although in truth, the pain in his eyes was still there. However, Xeion didn't refer to the physical sense of alleviation, but rather, the emotional sense. It made him happy that his sister cared for him so, and what's more, even tried to heal him. The very least he could do, as a brother, was to put her mind at ease by making her believe that she had 'cured' the pain in his eyes. "You're a great healer, Yuu-chan. It's probably because you put all the love in that tiny heart of yours into everything you do; and that's something even I can't do."

Yuu smiled, she was really happy that should could help her big brother. And she really enjoyed the hugs she gave her. "So what do we do now Onii-san?" asked Yuu, but as she asked the question, her tummy started to make noise. "May we eat first? My tummy is yelling at me again.

Xeion laughed. "Haha, okay, okay, but I don't think the base has a nearby restaurant, or rather, I'm not sure if it has, Yuu-chan," said Xeion, scratching the back of his head. He was at a loss -- Yuu-chan was hungry, but he didn't know if there was a place where they could get some food to appease her 'angry' tummy. Instead, Xeion simply asked her if she could hold her appetite in for now. "Yuu-chan, I'm not sure if we can get something to eat here, seeing as I don't know the place, but I promise you, if we can find someone who's familiar with the base after we train, we will, okay?"

"Ok,...." said Yuu, with a small pout. "But if my tummy gets more mad, don't blame me." She made sure her poncho was wrapped tightly around her, as she wanted to be sure she was ready for what was to come next. "Now you are going to show me how to use my zakipakito now?"

Xeion laughed at his cute sister's response. "Nah, don't worry about it, Yuu-chan. I promise to treat you to whatever you want, so until then, let's do our best, okay?" encouraged Xeion, walking away from Yuu-chan while he drew out Elena, his own zanpakuto, fashioned to look like a beautiful English broadsword, for Yuu-chan to see. Stopping in his tracks after he had walked a few feet away from her, Xeion turned back to face his little sister with a smile. "Yes I am, Yuu-chan," he informed. "Today, we're going to call out your shikai."
Xeion raised Elena up into the air then shouted his release phrase for his shikai, "Corrupt me now, Elena," as Elena changed into her shikai's first form, 'Stained Reflection'. Of course, Elena had a second stage shikai form, but didn't think he needed to show it still because Yuu-chan had just achieved shikai, so she still didn't need to learn how to summon her second stage. Well, as if she can even summon it in the first place, at her current level. "Okay, Yuu-chan; this will be pretty easy. You just need to say your release phrase and call out your zanpakuto's name, just like I did."

((NOT THE BALA! >.< SNEAKY! I CAN'T DODGE THAT! xD Oh well... time to go to Shikai land!))
((At Minato's level of power and how close he was, he wouldn't be able to see the attack soon enough to dodge it, and the Bala from Rakey hit him almost instantly in the right side of his upper chest, just above his left lung making it harder to breath for awhile as he lost his hold on Rakey's leg.
His breath had gotten heavier, his left lung had almost collapsed from the close range impact. his left eye was wincing to help convince his body to cope with the labor of breathing, now having to double the effort with half of his lung unusable for a few minutes maybe up to a half hour it would be difficult. For some reason, Minato was now... shorter... he looked down to see that his right knee had given into the impact aswell... he brought the blade back to his dominant right hand and pushed it against the ground for support as he tried to get up, but it was extremely difficult, he couldn't get up, something other than an injury or Rakey's reiatsu must be holding him down. His body was enveloped in heat for a second... then it quickly grew cold, it was coming from his right hand.
He took an observation of his surroundings... quite different one could say... instead of an Air Base, he was surrounded by a forest, in some sort of small clearing, maybe one fourth of a mile in diameter. He had quickly lurched forward, his sealed zanpaku-to crutch was gone and he coudn't feel his own reiatsu... and now infront of him was a shadey figure, in a literal sense. It looked like a completely black silhouette of himself, with the exception of the eyes which where alluminous white.
Minato began to try and get up again, breathing was becoming slightly easier, the effect not lasting as long as he thought, or was it something to do with this place? As he tried to get up, he was sent back to the ground again, someone had struck him behind his chest, now laying face down. Trying to pry his body up a bit, but he was held down again, this time a foot rested on his back.
"Why don't you just stay down?" The silhouette was holding him down, it sounded like him too. "You know you're never going to get anything from this, so why even try? You're just going to stay weak, even after this."
Minato fought back, "No, I'm going to get stronger, I wasn't weak to begin with!" The silhouette had released him for a moment, and Minato gained some stability with his elbows now supporting him, but was again brought down by a kick into his gut, making him lose his breath.
"Bullshit! You're more useless than a snowball in a warzone and you know it! Fighting for 'Justice', or the 'Right Thing' is just an excuse for you to get attention. You don't even take your duty seriously! When you said you had to try harder just a moment ago, did you even mean it? It's all just a game to see who's the best, and you're too damn self-conscious to accept that someone may hate you, so you can never say no right? You're such a weak pushover."
Little response came from Minato, the voice's song was very convincing, there was only little fragments of denial in his words, "No, I'm not."
Another strike, an axe kick to the midsection of Minato's back was enough to keep him quiet for a while. The silhouette picked him up by his uniform,
"You like to think that don't you? Feel free to try and prove it, there's a sword to your right. But... you're to weak to even get the strength to stand up." The shadey figure dropped him and began to walk back a ways, then turn back at Minato and waited for his decision.
Minato grabbed the blade and struggled to get back up, using the sword as a crutch again. Barely able to stand, Minato looked at the benefactor... somewhat becoming angry...
"Hmph, looks like you ARE going to waste your time, well I guess I'll have fun ripping you apart..." A blade identical to Minato's in size, shape and width appeared but in the same function as the other, a silhouette. "Alright, have fun getting your a** kicked you worthless piece of s**t!"And the silhouette came at him putting emphasis on the insult at the end, going for an instant kill strike straight down Minato's body, but the blade was stopped and Minato's reiatsu was returning, pulsating violently in sync with is heart beat, which was now speeding up and his self becoming furious.
"Shut the hell up!" Minato swung the enemy blade away, he still didn't have much strength, but he was making one hell of an effort. "I may not be the strongest, but I know I sure as hell am not useless. I don't care if I'm the strongest or not, I'll fight for whatever the hell I want. Just because you say something, you think it's true and that I'll just deny it, but not everything you said was a caricature, I do care what others think, because I'm not an arrogant a** like you!"
The silhouette stood still, looking suprised at what he had just said until a blade penetrated it through it's chest, going all the way through taking it all the way up to the hand guard of the sword. The silhouette burst instantly, and took the form of something else, an eagle about half of Minato's height, with rich indigo feathers and gold and black feathers taking a pattern upon the edges of the wings, and it bore the same white eyes.
The spirit had no voice as it 'spoke', telling him that he had done better than he had expected, and that it was about time that he began accepting his own flaws and taking his training to heart and find for what reason he fought for, and that whatever it was, he would be ready to assist him in his struggle. That was what he told him, then things began to change again.
Minato was back at the Air Base now, able to breath normally. He pushed off the ground with the newly refurbished zanpaku-to, able to stand again. Then looked at his teacher, or more so now, an opponent. He learned what he was trying to learn, so now Rakey was no longer teaching him anything, and now he was going to show her what he learned.
Under a low voice, he started, "Rip her apart..." and finished loudly, meaning now we fight, "Yuugurewashi!" The blade let out a violent gust as it changed shape, releasing all of it's stored energy for the first time, blasting it's heart out. The blade was oddly shaped, and he could find few reasons for it's shape, a bend near the hand guard at about a fourtyfive degree outward bend the went into the same but brought to blade back to sticking straight outward, going one for about three feet then came inward at a right angle for about a foot then came back down at another right angle, looking like a fish hook. If you were able to straighten the blade completely, it would look like just a long katana though. He swung it lightly, feeling how light it was for such a large blade, the blade itself must be hollow on the inside, and wherever the blade went, there was a wind that would follow it.
Impressed with what he concluded to be his shikai, he looked at Rakey once again, "Do you want to continue?" He wouldn't mind fighting a bit longer in his condition, he wanted to see what the blade could really do.
((I need to do some redesigning on my Shikai appearence anyway so... -_-;; it almost seems like Kira Izuru's xD))

 ______-<<<<<—AlaricoAlarico – Espada((@Bengervasquez: That was a bit of an auto-hit...you really can't expect me to do nothing if you open my eye right? Oh and just to let you know I DO have a way of getting out of this XD And hey it's really not my fault if there wasn't a PRP sign on the thread when I posted.))
The moment Alarico saw the shinigami removed his shades, Alarico closed and reopened his eyes a split second later. During this split second, he had concentrated his reiatsu onto his feet. He felt his eye being forcibily opened, but it seemed as if he was frozen in place and could not move. In his mind he saw images of himself being tortured and killed by the many hollows that he had slain while he was still an adjucas. There were hundreds, if not thousands of hollows that surrounded him, all screaming to get at him and tear him to pieces. Alarico's eyes were widened and his mouth opened in a silent scream. Seemingly. He marched into the Dark Mirror with an emotionless expression on his face, as if this was only his body and that his soul was already lost. It seemed as if everything was going along as Xeion planned. It was, until the moment Alarico stepped onto the edge of the Dark Mirror, he vanished. Not in the way that he would vanish if he had used Sonido, but he vanished completely as if into thin air. As if he had never existed at all, apart from the faint traces of reiatsu that still remained. It was as if the Alarico that had been affected by the illusion had never existed in the first place. This alone, would be enough to make the shinigami wonder about what happened to the arrancar that was here.
About twenty meters away from the rest of the group, Alarico stood behind a wall, his reiatsu completely concealed so he was unable to be traced apart from maybe the most skilled captains of the whole of Seireitei. That annoying guy, making me use it to escape. He thought to himself as he ignored the searing pains in his head, the after effects of his special technique. By gathering reiatsu into his feet, Alarico is able to use an enhanced version of Sonido to leave an after image of himself behind. But not just any normal after image. Alarico had developped the skills to input a portion of his reiatsu into his image so that it would appear to be real for a certain amount of time, depending on the amount of reiatsu he had put in. In this case, he had inputed quite a lot so that his image would take the effects of the Dark Mirror for him. The cost for just of technique, however, is the searing headaches that result from the high speed sonido. Holding his head, Alarico narrowed his eyes at he oblivious group and sonidoed away from the air base, bearing in mind what had happened and who was involved.
((1 post preparation for the technique, which I did in the previous post. By the way Alarico isn't a tattle-tale so no worries, I won't tell anyone. He likes to keep to himself, so he won't tell anyone what he saw. He'll just bear a grudge against Rakey, that's it. So no worries about anyone coming after you...well maybe apart from me blaugh )) "Where do we people go if not towards the perfection of our own illusion?"

((Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that every crew member is allowed to auto-hit if the auto-hit was justified. I see it all the time during training PRPs. As you're not really supposed to even be there, I think that Xeion's way of auto-hitting you was justified and acceptable, compared to the other methods. At the very least, he acknowledged your presence and dealt with you in a respectful manner.
By the way, Xeion, please speed this up. I've spent whole day fine-tuning my plan and I'm finished preparing the line-up for Nightshade, and all I need now is for you to finish the 15 posts I had you do, preferably by today. I know you can do it, so don't disappoint me, ace.))

Yuu took her zanpakuto out of its sheath. She held it out in front of her, she was trying to remember if Yurei ever mentioned anything like this to her. She tried as hard as she could to think of what it was, but she just gave herself a headache. Yuu looked down at her zanpakuto again, and then it finally came to her. "Disappear Yurei!" And from in her hands, the zanpakuto started to disappear, but not to Yuu, for she was the only one who could still see Yurei.
