One..two..three...four times Temor attack contact before Torsin spun his blade downwards covering his side form further harm, as the remaining five attacks slammed into Hitotsuhoshi into sent Torsin flying to the side, thanks to gravity Torsin hit the ground and slid a few feet before coming to a stop. Slowly Torsin stood up, his knees shaking from the effort, standing there Torsin coughed up blood, but kept his eye on Temor. Quickly he felt his side and found that he had some broken ribs, and there was going to be a lot of bruising after this fight was over.
For some odd reason Torsin started to laugh, it had been awhile since ha had attacked someone on this level of power, the last person this strong was Troix. Using shunpo again Torsin appeared this time behind Temor, and went to hit Temor in the head with a roundhouse kick.
Gemini landed feet first in front of Meluk after his first attack failed, but he wasn't ready to give up now. Moving right up to Meluk he grabbed his shoulder and pulled him forwards at a downward angle, this would pull Alarico forwards right into a palm strike, aimed to hit him under his jaw.

Using both Temor's and Daven's actions as a distraction, Jubei swiftly made his way up to the top of the pillar. As he stands at one of it's corners, he begins to smile and enjoys the moment...while feeling the spiritual pressures around him fluctuate against eachother. He didn't care who won the fights or if the pillar got destroyed. He only wanted the battles to reach their highest limits. Even if that meant protecting the pillar to stretch out the time.

Throughout all the fights Temor has gone through he noticed that every one of his opponents that have attained a higher level of speed would use it to attack from behind. This fight looked to be sharing that same pattern. The shinigami had received several injuries from Temor's attack and looked to be serious to the espada as Temor could see the pain within the shinigami's face and reaction. Then the shinigami simply vanished from sight, but the espada remained calm.
Using prior knowledge from his fights before Temor made the prediction that the shinigami would reappear behind him. It was possible for the shinigami to attack from above, but judging from which way the risen dirt was pulled due to the shinigami's speed it suggested that he would reappear from behind. Turning counter clockwise 180 degrees without hesitation Temor made it just in time to block the shinigami's leg from colliding with his head. Then within that reaction the espada fluently went into his counterattack.
With his zanpakuto being held in his left hand Temor was unable to use it in this attack since his left arm was used to block the shinigami's kick. So with the espada's right hand Temor lunged it forward aiming to have a tight grasp over the shinigami's neck. The move itself was different and the espada knew it would catch the shinigami off guard, but it was merely a set up for another attack. "You move quite well for a injured shinigami, but don't worry I'll end your suffering soon."

 ______-<<<<<AlaricoAlarico - Octava EspadaAlarico snarled as the impact from the blow to the jaw sent him reeling backwards, and only by performing a somersault and kicking the air with his feet coated in reiatsu was he able to prevent himself from hitting the ground from the impact. As he looked back up, blood trickled from the corner of his split lip, which he wiped away angrily. His jaw was swollen and tender, clearly broken.
"Dumm oo..."
Actually Alarico had attempted to say "Damn you", but his broken jaw prevented him from speaking properly. His eyes narrowed to the point where it would sent chills down anyone's spine, as he was so mad at Gemini. Or rather, Torsin. He whipped his hands to the back of his belt, and drew out two tanto. The instant he drew them out, they had transformed into a pair of tiger claws, which greatly increased his power in battle. His arms were only a blur as he slashed downwards, the hiss of his cut only heard a few seconds after his arms moved. He had sent not one, not two, but six of his "vacuums" towards Meluk and Torsin. They were not moving at lightning speed, but they were wide spread...and lethal to the touch.
"Oo wull pey..." (You will pay)
He muttered with gritted teeth. "Do you know the true meaning of fear?"

[ BGM] Torsin was an excellent fighter, and always weighed out the different types of counter attacks his enemies could preform when they dodged, or blocked his attacks.In the case of the round house kick the best choice of action was a simple frontal assault. This was about exactly what Temor did give or take a few things like Torsin was expecting a punch instead of a grab at his throat. By the time Temor's hand went to grasp torsin's neck he was hone , by using the momentum of the kick, and by hooking his foot on Temor's arm Torsin swung him self away from Temor attacks. Wincing in pain as he landed on Temor's right side, and pulled out a small orb that was very fragile , in side the orb was the venom of the Red Spitting Cobra which could permanently blind a person if it made contact with there eye's. With a flick of his wrist Torsin threw the orb at Temor's face aiming for his eyes, before he jumped back a few feet so he would not get the poison in his eyes. As this happen Gemini had to deal with Alarico's attack. Grabbing Meluk by the scruff of his neck, he waited for just the right time to move trough the gaps between the vacuums, this was made quite difficult because Gemini was dragging Meluk along and he was offering not help. Letting go off Meluk he watched Alarico. "Hey Meluk you better leave, you are just getting in my way." Gemini said as he saw Meluk head off, after hearing what he said. With him gone Gemini wouldn't have to worry about protecting him while, fighting Alarico. With a sadistic smile on his face he charged Alarico and when he neared him he attacked aggressively with three powerful kicks aimed for his chest. ((Meluk told me to puppet his character to leave, so don't get onto me about that.))

[I dont know if you're allowed to have the venom thing, but this is not the way I wanted Temor to become blind. I'll have him do it at his own free will. Not by accident.]
The movements of Torsin suggested that the shinigami was about to perform a counter attack from close quarters. Whatever it was Temor remained cautious and became even more aware as the shinigami took out a mysterious orb. Deciding that it was not within his best interest to remain that close the espada tried stepping back and simultaneously the orb was thrown directly at his face.
The action triggered Temor to release a great amount of his spiritual pressure equivalent to half a ton of weight surrounding the espada in a 5ft radius for that moment. The orb was instantly sent down into the ground breaking upon impact, but even the venom hidden inside was not able to splash vertically as they soaked quickly into the dirt. "Mischievous tricks will not win you this fight shinigami. Besides it seems you've already lost." Looking at the postion now Temor was placed with his back against the granite wall with a 10ft dent already in it and Torsin was now several feet away from himself. Temor's plan had worked perfectly as it wasn't to really do any serious harm to the shinigami, but to get a better position next to the pillar and to create a decent amount of space between Torsin and himself. The espada's right hand pressed against the granite and started to glow with a yellow light as his eyes gazed into Torsins. "Cero......"

As the destructive force of the cero cleared, the espada would find a surprise awaiting him. His attack did little damage to the pillar, as the apparent sight of an inner wall made of golden chain links shown through. Though Jubei was atop the pillar, his chains were intricately manipulated behind Daven's granite walls. Thus, forming into a secondary barrier, not as powerful as the first...but useful none the less. When the former prisoner planned on making these battles last. He meant it and as such continued to study the changes within the air. While awaiting for the pillar to be attacked once more. As long as he was continuously unnoticed, any attempts upon the pillar would ultimately fail. If this problem is to be relieved, then his added defences will have to be added into the equation. Either that or someone deals with him, however by now.....
He was more than aware of this, as he continued to manipulate his chains...barrier after barrier.

______-<<<<<AlaricoAlarico - Octava Espada((I'm fighting Gemini right now.
And I think it'd be quite difficult to move through all 6 gaps of these slashes especially since you're dragging a person with you. And bear in mind that vacuums suck in anything touching or nearby it. It's a powerful attack, but only lasts a few seconds. And they're even stronger now that I drew my zanpakuto.))
Alarico growled as he raised his left arm, the flats of his metal claws (see pic) defended his chest against Gemini's kicks. This of course was not the end of his attack. While he raised his left arm to defend himself, he had also jabbed his right arm forward...all the power packed into one jab. The attack was so fast that it was only a blur, but was aimed at the inside of Geminii's thigh. As Gemini left himself open after his kicks, Alarico felt sure that his jab would connect.
At the same time, Alarico was charging up a Cero in his left hand. A normal Cero, but at the hands of an espada it was a deadly attack. Alarico had positioned his arm so that the flats of his blade would block Gemini's kick...while his Cero would fire at the shinigami sitting at the top of the tower.
The whole area was engulfed in red light as the red destructive cero was fired off at Jubei. The very air around it sizzled with heat...if Jubei did not move from his position then he would not be killed, but would be quite badly burnt.

As the cero made it's way towards Jubei, the former prisoner had very little time to react. With his chains still maneuvering around behind Daven's walls, Jubei used the 'Kingusari-Shouheki' technique. Only to create a barrier large enough to cover himself, as the cero ripped through his location. Coming out uninjured and unfazed by the attack, as the dust clears. The corner to which he was standing upon, crumbled as proof of the destruction. The former prisoner had finally been noticed. And as such, decided to increase his defences. After recalling Kingusari, Jubei used his 'Hitoshirezu-Kutsuoto' technique to swiftly travel around the pillar...as he began encasing it within another chain barrier. Only this time the wrapping was loosely placed, as Jubei ended sitting atop the pillar at it's center. Clearing his mind, as he closed his eyes, he focuses the flow of his reiatsu and activates his 'Yakushi (The Healing Buddha)' technique. With this technique, Kingusari begins to resonate a special tone or melody.

Torsin watched as Temor fired the cero knowing he had lost, but when the everything cleared he could see that the cero had failed to destroy the pillar meaning this fight was not over. Standing still he gripped Hitotsuhoshi with both hands and started breathing in and out slowly calming himself done.Then everything seem to calm done around him sounds became nonexistent and his heart beat sounded like a distant thunder. Torsin had felt these effects before during his fight with Troix. Just like last time Torsin vision went white, and the only things Torsin could see were Temor, and him. Torsin just stood there as all this happen he was completely calm, no fear, or worry in his heart he was at peace. he started walking towards Temor each footstep creating a large echo in his mind, then he started picking up speed until he had used shunpo to appear in front of Temor. With a calm look on his face he attack by going into a combo of slashes the would be follow by a thrust to throw off Temor. -Gemini- If Alarico thought Gemini was going to stand still after an attack he was wrong the moment his last kick was blocked he rolled backwards instantly , so by the time Alarico countered his attack he only hit air. Now gemini was standing just out of Alarico's punching range, in order to keep those tiger claws of his away from his body. Unlike Torsin, he did not like being to close to his enemy as lonf as they were in range for a kick he was find, and even if they got to close Gemini had his ways. With a smile on his face Gemini aimed a Wheel kick at Alarico's shoulder.

While Jubei's chains continued to resonate, the bone fragments of those with hollow decent would start to tingle...as Kingusari's resonance adjusted to their frequency. Slowly, the tingle would start to sting and eventually grow into pain. For, it wasn't the tone or melody being produced that caused this. But, instead it was the vibrations within the bone fragments themselves. Bones were known to be hollow inside and it was within those empty chambers that the resonance did it's damage. The pain caused would continue to grow, as the frequency grew more aligned to the bone fragments. Though, the espada would most likely ignore such a pain. Once the frequency was perfect (6 shinigami posts), the pain would start to hinder the sharpness of their movements. If continued (4 posts), the pain would become tormenting to their bodies. And should the 'Yakushi' technique continue farther (5 posts), their bone fragments would crack or break. Causing even greater pain, not only to their bodies, but their minds as well.

______-<<<<<AlaricoAlarico - Octava EspadaJubei's attack was a bad choice. In fact, it was the worst possible choice to attack Alarico with. Among all espada, or even arrancar, Alarico alone is resistant to vibrations and sound frequency attacks. Why? Because he himself had been blessed with this ability. His ability to make use of vibrations and frequencies...to literally cut through anything. Alarico had no flashy techniques, his only ability was to cut and cut even deeper. Temor would probably be affected, but not Alarico.
Alarico grinned as his tiger claws vibrated in his hands, from his own reiatsu. The vibratinos disrupted Jubei's technique, rendering it useless. It also made Alarico's blades a weapon that is lethal to anyone nearby...
Sacrifices had to be made in order to ensure success. Alarico relaxed his whole body and turned himself around slightly. The kick connected, but because Alarico had turned his shoulder to turn away some of the impact, it only slightly bruised. This, however, left Gemini open for attack. Almost at the same time Gemini's kick landed, Alarico snarled and swung with his vibrating claws. Even if he managed to avoid the claws, the blade cut the very air around it...so even if he was close to the blade Gemini would still be cut.
((You have to take a hit sometime you know...))

The problems became more clear as Temor's attack hadn't worked the way he planned and now the shinigami fighting him continued forward with an attack. As the shinigami used shunpo yet again Temor could already tell where he was headed since the only opening would be a frontal attack. Holding his zanpakuto defensively the espada caught the shinigami's blade with his own sending sparks into the air. Sparks then continued to fly as the two blades clashed with each parry of the espada. Although he was defending each attack perfectly Temor was brainstorming of how to take down the pillar while feeling an unfamiliar ache within himself.
Pain was a different sensation for Temor as he only understood it as a feeling that only occurred when he was doing something wrong and so far he was keeping Torsin above and beyond his toes. So the problem would have to be another enemy within the area. Releasing a low frequency of spiritual pressure outward the espada activated his "main sense" which acted like a radar for the espada to locate other unseen enemies within the area. Temor felt the presence of Jubei on the top of the pillar and even understood that he was the source of the unorthodox attack. All the espada had to do now was find a way out of his position.
With each parry Temor increased the power in which he was redirecting Torsin's blade. It was a difficult technique, but what was unknown to the shinigami was that Temor was the best swordsman out of all of the espada. So with each parry he created a bit more time in which he could use to escape until finally the shinigami went for a thrust that would try to throw the espada off balance. Temor instantly vanished using sonido making his way up the pillar and placing himself about 5ft from Jubei. Upon making his way up the pillar Temor dragged his zanpakuto along the granite cutting deep within the defense and causing fragments of the granite to rain down upon Torsin. Now he stood face to face with Jubei and without a word or hesitation the espada lunged forward with his reiatsu pouring down his zanpakuto as he threw an astounding 15 lunges all aimed at different parts of the shinigami's torso. The reiatsu pouring down the zanpakuto would ensure that it could cut through any reiatsu based defenses the shinigami might use to protect himself.

Saki would suddenly appear crouched, and beneath his friend Jubei, his blade already released as he constantly attempted to parry blow.. Just after the first strike rolled form his blade.. he would go for the slight millisecond opening.. The fourteen slashes heading for his companion would soon find they'd met quite an admirable match.. The large blade proved its use in Saki's fighting style, capable of taking more then one blow with each defensive poses.. Only three different positions were needed before the final blow where Saki pushed, holding the blade close to himself as he charged and clanged the large blade against the attackers... Sliding back on the air, and then dropping in front of Jubei, Reishi particles lining his blade and his body.. some golden.. some red.. and some blue... It seemed he was emitting quite a reiastu signature, but had it sort of hidden beneath the masses of reishi he manipulated while performing the Hirenkyaku as an extra add-on to the blockade... Now, he would tone down the stage, his eyes flickering closed before he would open them, a new intent within his eyes... His hair, and the wind, seemed to fluctuate with the quick, and precise spiritual pressure changes... "Heh heh... Your pickin' on somebody I kinda like... He's a good playmate so..Henh.. I'd like it if you didn't decapitate him..." With a grunt,he would suddenly grasp forward, reishi in the atmosphere becoming visible along his outstretched right arm..
"Heh...I hope you don't mind the entrance mister Jubei...?! We've met before of course..." he slowly turned his head to the right, looking at Jubei with the sly eyes belonging to Saki's spirit...Destruction. The pyromaniac seemed calmer then usual, but that was merely because he'd met a man who's abilities so far depicted a man who could literally Halt most of the Shinigami's feeble attempts at causing there 'Positive' Destruction... He wasn't an ally to them, but an accomplice to the man who'd just been attacked.. he wasn't making it his battle, but making it his war. "So..Wanna play with a man of manipulation!?" With that, he would Hirenkyaku forward with a jolting array of slashes.. With each wild, outrageous, and large-ranged attack... Reishi particles would gather and merely pelt against whatever the blade struck.. This would give a sensational surge of pain similar to an acidic burn, due to how it was manifested...
