Welcome to Gaia! ::

As Axle flung towards Zique, he started to wake up... bit by bit. "Huh, why am I flying? Did I grow wings in my sleep? Am I even awake right now?" As he looked forward he saw Zique. "If I'm dead, then I must be in hell for me to see him here..." He said with a smirk. He suddenly realized that he was 'flying'. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOIN' ON HERE?!?!?!" He watched as Zique side-steeped, and didn't even bother to help him. "Zique you bas-!" Before he could finish his statement, he had crashed into a tree, face first. The shape of his body was indented on the trunk. Then he fell on his back. "Zique, don't even say a word, cause I know what you're gonna say." He rubbed his throat, and tried to imitate Zique's voice. "My precious tree! You're gonna have to replace that with a dozen more SLAVE!" Then he shifted back to his own voice. "Am I mistaken? Ya' douche bag" He said with a doubtful face. [his eyes being in the 'shape' of horizontal lines]. As Axle whined, he noticed to bullets coming right at him. "What the hell this MIB2!?!?!" He stabbed his sword on the floor with his right palm on the butt end of the hilt. Then he pushed up with his right hand. As he pushed up, he laced his sword with ice, and pulled it up, then sheathed it. He wrapped his legs around a tree branch, and pulled himself up. He was now sitting on a branch. "What the hell is up with all of you captains!?!?!?!? Is being a lunatic part of the job!?!?"

Hei let out a dejected sigh and pondered his next course of action. Whether he should give Zique the item or not was running through his mind at the moment. As his thoughts wandered, he lifted up his hand and touched the air in front of him. "Henkan Issai Koto..." There came a small spark from the air molecules but it died down rather quickly. He had long since learned the name for Kokoro no Kagayaki's Bankai but it appeared that he still couldn't use it yet. With yet another dejected sigh and shut his eyes and blocked every thing else out. He pushed everything out of his mind and breathed deeply as he listened to the breath of his katana. It lept from the holster on Tsukiko's back and came to float perpendicular to the ground in front of his face about 2 feet away. He breathed deeply once more and within a split second lept to his feet, drew the white katana from it's sheath and then sheathed it once more as he crouched slightly. The end result was a blade of air that shot away from him, narrowly missing Hibiki and sliced a large boulder behind him clean in half. His eyes still shut, Hei gripped the katana tightly and returned to his seat. Tsukiko hadn't moved at all during this whole endeavor save the few centimeters her body had shifted when the katana removed itself from the holster. She tilted her head to the side and eyed Hibiki through her soulless purple eyes as if to determine what he was thinking. Without a word, she reached into her shihakusho and retrieved a manilla envelope and held it up.

[I wrote two much longer posts the other day. xd ]

Hei opened the eye closest to Hibiki, turned to toward him and sighed. Not like he was doing anything fancy or anything so Hei simply stuck his hand up and stopped the blade with his index and middle fingers. It would have sliced them normally, but he was Hei for crying out loud. Not all parts of his body were flash and blood, that and he had gathered a few molecules of Kuromijin at his fingertips. Still having not moved from his spot, his lips parted and he spoke after shutting his eye. "What's this all about, drawing my Zanpakuto? Coincidence, bad place for you to be is all. Honestly, do think about things and the entire situation before you act. It's depressing to see you jump to conclusions in such a manner and act on impulse like that. Had I wanted to hit you, I would have done so. Lower your blade please."

"Not in the lab, no." He answered as the poly alloy quickly slithered around his backside and blocked the Shakkaho. He wasn't really in the mood to fight him but nonetheless, he had the gun reformed and loaded within a few seconds and had it placed against Hibiki's forehead as well. The gun was upside down as he was reaching backwards to aim it. His finger resting on the trigger, he let out another sigh and pulled it. Shooting point blank would probably send them both into the future. Then again, he did have the Kuromijin on his side and they would stop the effects of the bullets on him at the very least. Of course, they went of the defensive almost immediately and wrapped themselves around Hei's body as soon as he fired the shot.

[posts getting short... mad ]

[If it strikes you, it opens up a ball around your body and flings you into the future instantly. Might want to edit or something. Guess I forgot to explain that... I'm really sleepy though, I blame that. I guess I'll make my post around you being sent into the future then...]

As Hibiki disappeared, Hei sighed and lowered the gun and his Kuromijin retracted and formed the cloud once more. They sank down and forced themselves back into the black katana as he sealed it up. The polyalloy sprang to life and crawled down his arm, and back to rest upon his chest as a breastplate. Placing his hands on his lap once more, he shut his eyes and breathed deeply. Tsukiko tilted her head slightly and then sat down next to Hei and leaned against his side, doing the same as her father, i.e., shutting her eyes and emptying her mind.

"Hmph. Do not blame my talking for your lack of comprehension." Hei said, eyes still shut and hands still in his lap. Maybe Zique thought he couldn't tell when he was asleep, which was odd. He wasn't that far away and could hear the difference in his breathing. His presence had no affect on Senna or Axle, they had chosen to do what they had done, Hei had not forced them. It seemed Zique failed to grasp this concept. "We could do well without your Science--", he had said, a funny remark to make. Zique probably didn't even understand the extent to what he had just said he could live without. It was just as well, once an idiot, always an idiot. Even still, he hated Zique a lot less than the others, which is why he had gone through the trouble of making something for him. Hei finally rose 5 minutes later and walked over to Zique and dropped a two bottles onto his chest. One being awareness pills that were meant to increase his awareness and reactions, while asleep. The second, pills that forcibly kept the target awake. Maybe he'd find them useful, maybe not. Both were labeled and had instructions in the bottle. Not caring to see his reaction, Hei walked back over to Tsukiko and took her hand. He muttered something under his breath and the white katana glowed intensly as Hei's body shimmered a little. In the next second, they vanished accompanied by a flash of light and a sonic boom.

[I never went to bed.]

Axle watched everything go by. "Hei's so violent, Hibiki's so demanding, and Zique's so lazy... Is this really the pride of the Gotei 13?" He sighed, and heard Zique's statement in his sleep. His face was blank and doubtful. "Geez you don't have to say it in your sleep, I can hear you say it enough when you're awake!" Hei was then about to leave. "Hey wai--" Before he could complete his statement, Hei had left. "Oh great, now I'm gonna have to be the one to replace the trees he murdered!" He then turned to Hibiki. "Well, what the hell are you still doing here? Not like I care though, but don't expect my captain to submit any report to you. He's a lazy b*****d... He was, and he'll always be so forget about it." Axle walked over to Zique, then kicked him. "Hey, get up you bum, sleep in the barracks if you want, don't make the grass suffer from your laziness!" He said with a smirk. He proceeded to taking a look at his sword. "When the hell did this thing get frozen? Oh well. I'll be in the barracks, Hibiki, you can go there and hang out for a while, or watch this bum do his thing." Axle said as he walked towards the barracks, and point at Zique [who was behind him] with his thumb.

[let's say i didn't leave yet]

Axle stared at Zique's finger. "What the hell re you pointing at?" He took an even closer look. Soon after, a bolt of lightning struck his face. "What the hell?!!?!?!?" He yanked Zique by the 'collar'. "If you're not goin' to the barracks, then I'll have to drag you in there!" Axle thought of a way on how it'd be easier for him to bring Zique to the barracks. "I've got it!" He pointed at Zique. "Bakudo no ichi, Sai!" But nothing happened yet. "Well, this isn't rig--" Axle suddenly got restrained, and he couldn't move. "What the hell is this all about?!?!?!? This wasn't suppose to happen!!!!" He yelled as he tried to wiggle his way out, while rolling on the grass.
