 Dolor Dolor’s eyes flashed in excitement as Zenos appeared to protect Yuki from the rogue Kido spell he had attempted to attack her with, he didn’t seem to be the least bit affected by Zenos’ reiatsu, merely shrugging it off as it dropped down on him ”Oh? Last time I checked Shinigami and Hollows were enemies. Don’t tell me ya’ll kissed and made up while we weren’t looking.” by this time the Cero Oscuras was suppose to have engulfed him, instead the pitch-black beam seemed to be suspended in mid-air, its edge hovering just within reach of Dolor’s hand. ”Or maybe, I’m looking at Mrs. Hakase’s fling?” with a loud laugh, he distorted the Cero Oscuras into a pitch-black pellet hovering in mid-air. With malicious intent, he grabbed the pellet, ignoring the damage it would do to his hand and flung it straight towards Hei and Yuki’s parents ”Yo, ma’ and pa’! Catch!” he yelled as he did so, not really caring if it would actually hit them or not, he was just having fun. Although, due to Elisia’s intervention, it seemed he would have to find other ways to entertain himself, with a frown he simply watched the condensed Cero Oscuras explode on the ground, creating a large and devastating explosion.
”Aw, what a killjoy.” Dolor spoke as he waited for them to make another move towards him, though it seemed he wouldn’t have to wait long. Without warning, he found himself being flung away from the tomb and towards Sokyouku Hill’s cliff face, letting out an audible ”Wee!” as he flew towards the hill, embedding himself on its cliff face and quite possibly breaking a few ribs. He listened to Tsukiko’s rant, his grin widening more and more with each threat the Tsukiko voiced out ”Really? You will? What kind of trick, little robot? Ya’ gonna show me your USB port or something?” he yelled back, shortly followed by another loud and obnoxious laugh ”Humor me then. The sight of piss dripping out of my mouth is a rather interesting idea; you have quite the dirty mind don’t you?” as Tsukiko continued, Dolor snuck in one last comment as he waited for Tsukiko to make her move ”Will you hurry it up already? I swear, I didn’t know glorified microwave ovens would be so talkative.” that would be his last comment for quite some time though, whether he knew it or not was anyone’s guess.
He paid no attention to the gravitational barriers Tsukiko created, nor to the Sekienton she conjured up and he easily disintegrated the Shitotsu Sansen aimed at him. Waving his hands, Dolor urged her to continue, though she didn’t need his encouragement. As the Rikujokoro beams embedded themselves on his midsection, he gave off a smirk as he distorted the Gochutekkan pillars’ trajectory, causing them to crash into five of the six beams, effectively destroying both of them and leaving the sixth one to be effortlessly destroyed by Dolor. Flicking his gaze over to where Tsukiko had exited his sphere, Dolor childishly waved towards her as he waited for her next set of attacks. As the bright mass of glowing energy erupted from Tsukiko’s hands, Dolor’s face twisted itself into a wide and childish smile, his eyes and mouth wide open like a child who had just witnessed his first Christmas tree. Similar to what he had done with Zenos’ Cero Oscuras, Dolor condensed the three masses of energy into a spinning sphere, with the Raikoho at its core, next was the Soren Sokatsui and embedded in it were the Senju Koten Taihos, it was arranged to make it look like a child’s toy. However, it served a different purpose as the Kurohitsugi materialized and aimed to skewer Dolor from all sides, but instead a loud and bright explosion occurred from inside the black cube as Dolor detonated the sphere, blowing away the Kurohitsugi with a powerful blast from inside. As the smoke cleared, Dolor stood unharmed by the explosion he himself had created, and as always grinning like a maddened child.
When Dolor looked to where Tsukiko previously was, he titled his head to the side like a confused dog as he was unable to see her anywhere ”Yo! Did ya’ go to the little girl’s room to change your oil or something?” he had barely finished when a black hole emerged from nowhere on his chest, followed by eight others appearing in a concentric circle around the first. With a confused look, Dolor dissipated them quickly, just in time for her to feel Tsukiko re-enter his sphere. However, he hardly had the time to greet her as the Kin and Bankin went into effect, temporarily immobilizing him before Tsukiko’s outer sphere turned on, which would effectively hold him in place. So far, Dolor had only disintegrated the giant metal box, however, after a while the Kin and Bankin were reduced to mere spirit particles, leaving only Tsukiko’s outer sphere holding Dolor in place.
With nowhere else to go, Dolor finally had the time to once again switch forms and began to talk with Tsukiko ”That was fun, can we--“ however, before he could even finish he felt Elisia’s Bankai release as she was still inside his sphere. Suspending the fiery cannonballs in mid-air, Dolor redirected them towards the flaming circular blades she had tossed and caused a rather powerful explosion as the two forces collided. Whistling as he looked at the explosion, Dolor was caught off guard when Tetsu’s bones pierced through his feet and snaked themselves across his body, followed by a Tsuzuri Raiden that channeled itself through the bones, shocking Dolor from the inside ”Ah, so you’re into that sort of thing, eh?” he jested as he broke apart the bones from inside him, effectively digesting them and incorporating them into his system, the same happened to the projectiles Tetsu launched. Midway though their flight through Dolor’s flesh, they were broken down, distorted, and then digested into his body. ”So you use bones, eh? Creepy, but to each his own I guess, right?” the way he spoke hinted at some weird joke that only he would care to understand, his laugh was interrupted however by a sudden shock of static energy from Hyagato ”Ooh, tingly.” he spoke as his body let out a smell of burnt flesh before it healed itself.
Looking around Dolor let out a loud and arrogant announcement ”To all those who haven’t taken a cheap shot, please do so before I die from boredom.” just then Yuki re-entered the battle field, much to Dolor’s joy and excitement. As the petals erupted from below him and tore his flesh to shreds, Dolor did nothing to stop and instead met the attack with open arms, laughing gleefully like a madman ”Exquisite, I demand more.” he mumbled to himself as Yuki prepared for another attack, his entire body dripping wet with his own blood. As Yuki released her Shikai, Dolor looked at her intently with his eye, as the other one had been rendered blind by her previous attack and was just dripping out blood. As the reiatsu cascaded down, Dolor licked his lips as he savored the taste of Yuki’s ever growing power ”Magnificent.” he whispered to himself as he stared at Yuki’s appearance. When Yuki finally used the ability Dolor let out a satisfied laugh as the black ice crept upon him. It was intent on blinding him, but he wouldn’t allow it, especially not when such a vast array of toys-- the Shinigami-- were laid out in front of him. The black ice slowly thinned out before completely dissipating ”Perfect, absolutely perfect.” Dolor spoke out as he healed himself ”Just when I was starting to regret having killed the only toy who didn’t break, two more rise up to take its place.” needless to say, he was referring to Hei, Tsukiko and Yuki ”But it doesn’t seem like you want me to play with you, huh? That’s too bad, but I guess it can’t be helped.” as Dolor spoke, all those caught inside the sphere received special marking on their scalp, hidden from sight because of their hair. The markings were a precursor to his ability and were similar to his sphere, and existed only to one’s sense of vision, nothing else.

602  xxxxxxxxthe Sun locks the Heavens xxxxxxxxthe Moon eclipses the Night 博士月子
Jūnibantai Taichō Paying little attention to the other's actions, Tsukiko steadied herself as Yuki released her Zanpakutō, doing her best to keep upright as this occurred. This act left her with many questions, but these were all tabbed and set aside in her hard drive. The Kyokko around her shattered, revealing the cloaked girl. Tsukiko looked completely unperturbed by Dolor's insults, mostly because they were all very desperate sounding. Raising her hand, she twisted her wrist, causing both the inner and outer spheres to converge on Dolor, crushing him between the two opposing forces before returning to their former state. With a blank stare, Tsukiko raised a finger to her mouth and a sound came from her mouth that was similar to one Hei had used to release her Bankai.
"Code:  Release cords. Activate barrier in ten seconds. Set outward barrier; tessaract shape. Two second delay on the frontal inner side. Commence sealing."
Inside her cloak, several hatches along Tsukiko's body, namely on her shoulders, forearms, and thighs, all opened up, causing several metallic, yet very versatile black cords to snake out from her cloak and race across the ground, each one penetrating the ground and unearthing several long poles that were white in color. There were twelve in total, six being nearly twice as long as the others. By projecting her CPU inside the cords, Tsukiko quickly directed them to take the longer poles and arranged them in a rather large cube that extended just past her outer spheres, then take shorter poles and arrange them in a smaller cube that was just outside her inner sphere. The ends of the poles clicked and seemed to fuse together as the cube were completed. The large cube created a Sekkiseki barrier that would generate a suppression field to render Dolor's power's of distortion completely useless, create the disintegrating property of the sphere that surrounded the Seireitei so he couldn't escape without dying, and also removing the special markings he had created. These Sekkiseki poles were augmented by Tsukiko's best technology to increase the emission of the waves they let out, thus causing the suppression of power to act within seconds rather than an hour or so. The inner cube did the same, save for the face that was just in front of Tsukiko's face. Raising her hand, Tsukiko began to project gravitons at its tip.
"Checkmate." She said plainly, just as the gravitons rapidly projected into a cohesive beam that flew out of her finger just as the final piece of the inner cube was erected. As the beam was already formed before the suppression reached her, it would continue to work. The beam was aimed at the weakened Dolor and once it collided, would generate a force blast with a maximum concussive force equivalent to the primary shock wave of an explosion of 20,000 pounds of TNT. Suffice to say, the explosion would be rather large and devastating, even more so since Dolor's abilities would be useless. Turning to Lee, she gave him a look that just simply implied she needed a way out; it was a desperate look more than anything. Lee's Kūkanten'i would suffice, since the Sekkiseki barrier and reduction only existed in the outer cube, but not the inner. Both of her sphere's dropped as the barrier came to work, and Tsukiko sighed, eying the cords she was still attached to. After all of this came to pass, Tsukiko looked to Dolor and called out to him. "So tell me... how does it feel to be captured and humiliated by a glorified microwave? Enjoy being reduced to a mere human." ₪ ₪ ₪ ₪ ₪ ₪

Oh this could not be better. Tsukiko's barrier seemed to have Dolor completely subdued, but for how long. Everything else they'd thrown at the creature had been shrugged off like absolutely nothing. Its voice, however, betrayed a waver of uncertanty. As did its eyes. Hyagato doubted that anyone else had been able to catch the slightly panicked look it'd gotten when Tsukiko's barrier had encased it. Gato had no doubt that the abomination would be able to break free, but would it be strong enough to stop Gato from hitting it as hard as he could with the time he had?
"Alright abomination. Let's see if you can really keep up or if your power is really just a bluff."
With a maniacal grin, Hyagato dashed off the edge of the cliff. There was a huge flash of light less than a second later about half way down the cliff. Then Hyagato appeared, before the barrier, twenty feet from it so as to not be hampered by the sekkiseki rods that bound Dolor. His coat was still floating in the wind above them, his skin glowed with pale blue markings that seemed to move over his, suddenly, golden skin. His eyes and hair crackled with static power and his left arm was extended towards the barrier, the space between his middle and pinky finger crackling and flashing with charging, silver static energy.
"While I hope this barrier manages to hold this slime, I have a bit of a problem leaving things to chance. So, if you don't mind and even if you do, I'm gonna just keep this bolt trained on it in the off chance that it does manage to escape. I doubt it'll have the strength to avoid it."
His voice in bankai seemed to echo around the area, giving the illusion that it came from every direction at once. Gato hoped the barrier lasted a little while. He would need some time to charge up enough juice to completely paralyze Dolor. And if that didn't work, he could always overload the freak.

 Masashi, Lee, Gobantai Taicho"Telling me to go. But hands beg me to stay. Your lips say that you love. Your eyes say that you hate. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. What you build you lay to waste. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. All I've got's what you didn't take. So I, I won't be the one. Be the one to leave this. In pieces. And you, you will be alone. Alone with all your secrets. And regrets, don't lie. You promised me the sky. Then tossed me like a stone. You wrap me in your arms. And chill me to the bone. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. All I've got's what you didn't take."
Lee watched as Tomomi approached not bothering to comment on Eriko coming to stand beside him as the funeral was coming to a close and Hei was being buried. Something was certainly off about the Commander but it was nothing major at the moment just little things. Sighing and preparing to leave he stopped as Yuki suddenly spoke up about it not being the Commander. "Figures." When the figure was revealed as Dolor Lee simply shook his head watching as everyone went about trying to kill him in their various ways. Using Shunpo he disappeared quite a ways away to watch in safety until he either felt the need to jump in or was needed. Lee wasn't foolish enough to jump in immediately since he didn't feel like it was that big of a deal Dolor had impersonated Tomomi. It didn't take that long to figure out it was an impersonator and no harm had been done really it seemed like a foolish thing to get angry over. It would just result in them getting killed if they let it get to them something that was not all that big of a deal really. There were always more idiots to take there place if they died.... Sighing Lee closed his eyes at such thoughts since deep down he knew that he didn't really think that and was just disappointed in their reactions.
Still some of them had kept a cool head throughout the whole thing and when all was said and done Dolor seemed to be caught in a trap. Tsukiko had perfectly created and executed a plan that was reminiscent of something Hei would have come up with. Which made him ask the question as to whether they really needed the man in the end. His replacement was doing quite nicely for the moment not to mention Yuki had grown in power by leagues compared to before and seemed to be able to seal her Zanpakuto now. Plus she seemed to be on par with Tomomi in terms to of Reiatsu having surpassed Hei in terms of amount and pressure. Even at Lee's range it was still quite noticeable. Tsukiko's look in his direction for an obvious exit to her attack was not unnoticed and after a moment he held his hands out in front of him. "Kūkanten'i." The area directly around Tsukiko began to glow green brightly and distort until she was quite suddenly gone from the area and beside Lee a few feet away. "Quite the plan Tsukiko-san. It is quite impressive." Lee glanced to the side at her for a few moments before returning his gaze straight ahead to Dolor to await his reaction.
"Sacrifice through Danger and Pure Love. That is what the Lily of the Valley symbolizes."

⋆⋆⋆∥ＥＬＩＳＩＡ xＲＩＹＵ
☇【ｓｑｕａｄxｆｏｕｒxＣＡＰＴＡＩＮ 】 Elisia gritted her teeth as her weapons had been diverted back on themselves, creating an explosion. Ouch. Wow, she didn’t actually know that she could actually create such an explosion – maybe she’d figure out a way to utilize that afterwards. A smirk appeared on her face as she noticed the fact that at least, all his attention, from when he had been calling insults to Tsukiko, had been diverted into their fight. He seemed to be thoroughly distracted so hopefully, whatever Tsukiko needed to do, she would do. Elisia herself was having some problem holding herself back and simply letting Tsukiko do what she needed to do, since his insults towards both Yuki and Tsukiko were irritating her. However, clenching her hands into fists, she barely managed to keep herself from running at him, which, she repeatedly told herself, would be useless. “That stupid, irritating, annoying b*****d…don’t waste time to even bother…Tsukiko can take care of it.” she mumbled under her breath, attempting to stop herself from moving.
What happened next completely threw her off-balance, as she had not been expecting it. As a massive Reiatsu was released, she fell towards the ground, only barely managing to stop herself from cracking her head against the hard ground. Whose was this Reiatsu? From the sheer amount and pressure, all she could feel was the fact that this seemed similar to the Captain Commander’s. This was mad. Even Hei’s hadn’t been as powerful as this. However, releasing her own Reiatsu, some of the pressure was lifted off her while some still remained. Maybe Tomomi was back? She didn’t know about him, but hadn’t Yuki used the Kido to see whether he was here in Soul Society in the first place? Lifting her head and probing the Reiatsu, she realized who it was in a split-second. “Yuki,” she breathed her name in surprise as her former Captain released her Shikai. What was going on? While she was simply delighted to know that Yuki didn’t seem to be hindered anymore by the fact that she would grow younger every time she used her abilities, Elisia was wondering exactly how this came to be. Maybe she’d ask Yuki later about it, since, to tell the truth, this was literally nothing short of a miracle ever since Hei had passed away.
Her attention was diverted once more as Tsukiko spoke in a voice which sounded ridiculously familiar. She pulled a wry smile, since she had finally recognized it. Like father, like daughter, it seemed. Luckily, this battle seemed rather over, due to the fact that Tsukiko had finally managed to complete her plan. However, another question formed in her mind. While Tsukiko had managed to trap Dolor, why didn’t she just simply kill him? Death wasn’t exactly something that Elisia liked, but it was necessary in this case, wasn’t it? Anyway, she had a feeling that nobody around would really deny Tsukiko the chance to avenge her father’s death. She shrugged her shoulders. Ah well, that was up to Tsukiko and nobody else since it was her choice. Slowly manoeuvring herself off the ground, she struggled on her way towards Yuki, only stopping briefly to glare and throw a scathing look in Dolor’s direction. She was not into insults or anything like that for the moment, even if she really wanted to, since he had insulted those close to her. Moving quicker, she stopped next to Yuki, a questioning look upon her face as she asked, “Yuki, your powers…have they come back?” ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬

Hibiki Kirisho
- Squad Nine Captain -
================================================
The gods trembled
The demons flocked Hibiki ignored Tetsunosuke’s scolding and continued to focus on the situation at hand. Dolor’s manipulation of his Tenran and Kato’s Senju Koten Taiho was half-expected, Hibiki figured the spells would fail to damage him even in the slightest, but he had expected them to be dissipated just like before and not used against each other. He didn’t waste too much time dwelling on it though and simply allotted it as a variation of his abilities. Realizing that he and the other Shinigamis would have to resort to means other than Kido to bring him down, his hand went directly to his zanpakuto’s hilt as he prepared to go straight into Bankai. ”Ban--“ however, he stopped when he caught sight of Zenos using Sonido to appear in front of Yuki in an instant, Hibiki was surprised at the sheer speed at which he moved, but his surprise gave way to fear at the thought that the arrancar was going to harm Yuki. He very well nearly acted on this fear and was about to release his Bankai, before Zenos shot forth a black Cero from his index finger, a Cero Oscuras, he was undoubtedly in his resurreccion form. However, the direction was not towards what Hibiki thought it would be aimed at, and was instead pointed towards Dolor, the arrancar proved to be more and more an enigma.
Hearing Nu’s yelling, Hibiki turned around for a brief moment to find her ”Captain Nu! We’re right here!” he yelled back, before turning back to Dolor, just in time to see him sent flying towards the face of Sokyoku Hill, it took Hibiki a few seconds or so to realize that it must’ve been one of Tsukiko’s gravitational abilities. He listened to her speak her piece before engaging Dolor, and Hibiki, unlike the others, did not protest, after all what she said was true and Hibiki knew better than to argue with someone who was part Shinigami, part super-computer. Hei had died due to his own arrogance, Hibiki was confident that his daughter was not so stupid to repeat the same mistake. As Tsukiko began her assault, Hibiki Shunpo’d away a few meters back, just to be sure that he wouldn’t interfere with whatever Tsukiko had in plan, or worse, get struck by one of Tsukiko’s attack accidentally.
From his location, Hibiki had a wide view of Tsukiko and Dolor’s short battle. When Tsukiko started off with a few Bakudo spells, Hibiki was certain she was merely using them as a distraction. But when she started using high-level Hados and Bakudos with still no sigh of her Shikai or Bankai abilities, Hibiki started to grow doubtful, but stopped from intervening and remained where he stood. Soon enough, Tsukiko’s plan came into fruition and Dolor was trapped between her repulsion fields. As the others started to make their attack towards Dolor, Hibiki decided that the surprises were over, but he was sadly mistaken. As he reappeared near the sphere, he felt the full brunt of Yuki’s reiatsu coming down on top of him. He just barely managed to release enough of his own reiatsu to counter-act most of the effects, it was insane, he shot a glance towards Yuki, his eyes wide in shock and awe ”Captain Yuki…” he muttered as he could hardly believe the level of reiatsu that she was emitting, it rivaled, no, it surpassed even Hei’s own reiatsu and was rapidly approaching Commander level, if not it was already at such a level.
His stare was broken however when he felt some slight movement underground, before Tsukiko ripped from the earth several Sekiseki pillars that seemed to have been placed there before the funeral even started. Hibiki stared at the tessaract as it was slowly pieced together, the fact that Tsukiko had planned the entire things was impossible to imagine, yet there it was. As the construct reached its completion, Tsukiko motioned to Lee to get her out of it, a request Lee immediately obliged to ”Impressive is an understatement.” Hibiki commented as he looked at Dolor as he laid trapped inside ”So, can we start interrogating him now? He did say he kidnapped Tomomi.” Hibiki tried his best to sound as polite as possible, but the situation hardly called for it, after all their Commander-General had just been kidnapped.The winds were unleashed

» I w ill C Ø N † R Ø L • E V E R Y • T HIN G» ------- ;; Feel my ✖ BURNING ✖ soul Nu watched as Elisia showed much more improvement since her promotion. Tsukiko seemed to be taking her time concentrating on whatever plan she was trying to do. Tsukiko's attacks revolved around gravity, so for a physical fighter like her, it would not be a wise choice to simply run in there, though it was taking much more control not to then she originally thought. A massive Reiatsu was released, a head glanced to confirm it was in fact Yuki, though she was stronger then before. It was greater then Hei's yet didn't have the same kind of crushing feeling most people felt whever he was in the area. Tsukiko herself seemed to give off a vibe that reminded her of Hei as she completed her attack, trapping Dolor in some sort of barrier. Now they had two of the beings, numbers three and two. She began to wonder what kinfd of plan Tsukiko was planning, capturing the two instead of outright killing them. it couldn't be to interrogate them, Tsukiko most likely had ways to get any information out of them without the need for such methods. She pushed the ideas out to the back of her mind as she approached Hibiki, her mood better now.
"Glad to see you all safe.." She groans as she looks around the area. While most of the ground was destroyed, Hei's gravesite was, not suprisingly fine, thanks to Tsukiko's preplanning. She had to use a shunpo to meet him though, as Dolor was battered quite a distance by Tsukiko. Looking around, it wasn't suprising to say that Tsukiko made some preplanning before this day even began. "Get him to a interogation team, under lockdown, then give him to Tsukiko-taichou, only Hei's lab has the tech to really keep him under lock and key..." She tried to think of Tsukiko's motive. The two were a secret race until a few days ago, but now she can draw they have a heiracrchy, and almost godly powers. With those two in mind, she can only think to use them for a bargaining chip of some osrt, though for what, she held no clue.

765  xxxxxxxxClimb the mountains and get their good tidings. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxNature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. Hakase Yuki
博士雪
"Yeah. He's my male mistresss and second lover. Does that suit your twisted fantasies, Dolor-tan?" Yuki said with a roll of her eyes at Dolor's comment of Zenos being a fling of hers. It appeared that the Exaequare had honestly nothing better to do than cast various insult at those around him, and bad insults at that. A few seconds later, Yuki to look at Zenos and stuck her tongue out at him playfully, doing so discreetly. Of course they had no such history together, but Hei was gone now and he left a huge hole to fill, perhaps it wasn't such a bad thing to persue. That is to say, if it were even possible for a Shinigami and Arrancar to be together; doubtful, she mused. "Bleh... I musn't think such things." Mumbling to herself, she watched Dolor dispel her blizzard just as she assume he would.
As Tsukiko finished up with her binding, she could only be amazed at the sheer amount of planning this girl had gone through to set this all up. Tsukiko and Yuki were rarely separated during the past week, so how could she have possibly had the time? After a few seconds of deliberating this puzzle, she remembered that Tsukiko needed much less down time than anyone who required sleep did. If Yuki remembered correctly, Tsukiko only needed an hour or two of "sleep" before she was ready to go again. Of course, Tsukiko had probably done this all in the dead of night while the Captains slept so no one else would determine what she was up to. Yuki's Reiatsu dropped significantly, going into a standby mode that wouldn't hinder anyone except a human. as it dropped, she lowered her tanto, moving her arm to her side and pointing the kissaki at the ground. "Damn she works fast..." Yuki idly commented, looking up at the top of the tesseract and at Hyagato as Elisia approached her, something that registered to her immediately, an improvement over Rei's ability to detect those around her by reading their body.
"I guess Rei is getting even more powerful... Huh? Yes... I would say they are back. And with friends as well..." Her initial comment was significantly softer than her response to Elisia as the former was meant to be only to herself, but it was hardly impossible for Elisia to hear. Turning, she extended her hand and ruffled Elisia's hair with a smile on her face. Rei's abilities were still in overdrive, meaning they were working a little better than she was intending them too, nothing that couldn't be fixed with a little bit of training to adapt to this new level of energy. Because of this, her mere touch completely restored her former Lieutenant's Reiryoku as her own accidentally passed into Elisia's body. Though Yuki noticed this, she didn't seem too concerned with it. "Enjoying your new position or is it too hard for you, dear? Did I spring too much on you in one go?" Directly after finishing her comment her attention was stolen by Tsukiko's abrupt appearance next to Lee after her had used a spatial displacement Kidō on her to bring her out of the tesseract's inner cube. As she looked relatively all right, Yuki kept the urge to rush over and hug her little girl to death under wraps and instead only smiled at her accomplishment.
Yuki's gaze shifted to Nu and she shut her left eye and sighed. "As much as I'd like to agree, I fear that this one will be impervious to interrogation. He's obviously completely nuts and doesn't care either way, so you'd just be wasting your time. I don't know what Tsukiko-taichō's plan is from here on out, but I suggest he stay here and I'll watch him for now. I at least have confidence I can keep with him if he somehow manages escape. If nothing, we'd wear each other out." Folding her arms under her breasts, Yuki frowned and tilted her head to look up at the sky. "If I had to guess, I'd say Tomomi is located in their own dimension. I say dimension because I checked the Human World over the week and there were no traces of them there or here so they must reside elsewhere, else we would have seen them before. Though there is also Hueco Mundo as well, but I couldn't go there in my weakened state. Zenos-kun, you know Hueco Mundo rather well, have you ever heard or seen these guys there before?" She asked, tossing her gaze in his direction. The winds will blow their own freshness into you,xxxxxxxx
And the storms their energy,xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
While cares will drop off like autumn leaves.xxxxxxxxxx

537  ┏──────────────┓ xxΖenos Λthanasius xx[Immortal Stranger] xxxxαπό το έδαφος ┗──────────────┛ Malchut Sephira - Being of Lowliness
Despite his Cero Oscuras being used so shoddily to create an attack on the parents of the very girl he set out to protect, Zenos did budge, not even a little. As he had decided beforehand, Yuki was the only one he was going to bother to protect. Not only that, but it looked some girl had taken them to safety before it could hit them. Zeno's gaze flicked to Yuki as he felt her finger on his shoulder and her lips on his cheek. He looked very comfortable with this act, but still showed no signs of caring that it occurred. Her thanks was met with a barely noticeable nod of his head, in which it barely moved an inch. As the Kido flew and distractions raged, Zenos watched Tsukiko with a blank stare, silently figuring out where she was going with this. Tsukiko gravitational spheres were met with no surprise by this man, and all he did was test out the entire ground with his Pesquisa, immediately noticing the foreign objects buried beneath the ground's surface. Watching Yuki with mild interest, he staggered in the slightest as her Reiatsu dropped on him, though he hid it well. Making a mental note to himself about her growth, he flicked his gaze back to Tsukiko.
Before she had even pulled the rods from the ground, Zenos knew how this was going to end and promptly returned to his sealed state, thus recalling his Reiatsu. Turning his back to the fight, Zenos began to casually walk away from the scene and pocketed his hands as he did so. Though he heard Yuki speak of him as her lover, he only smiled meekly and continued on. He had just reached the foot of the hill when he heard his own name come from Yuki's mouth.
Zenos was standing in front of Yuki just as the image of him at the foot of the hill was turning around in response to her words, in fact he had arrived even before she had finished her sentence. With his signature vacant stare, Zenos pulled his hand from his pockets and began rapidly signing several things to her in order to communicate without using words as he had no intention of speaking again. "No, I've never seen him before in my life and I'm sure Asuna would have tried to kill him if he did reside there. Rest assured, he does not dwell in Hueco Mundo. Goodbye Yuki, my regards to you and your family. Sorry for your loss." Upon completing his signs, he abruptly turned, catching a glimpse of Lee of the corner of his eye. His afterimage kept his gaze trained on the Captain as the real Zenos appeared at the top of Sōkyoku Hill and opened a Garganta, disappearing inside it several seconds later. His after image vanished shortly after his presence was completely gone. As he traversed the Garganta back home, he could only think of how much of an uproar his appearance had caused. Of course, it was nothing compared to Dolor's abduction of Tomomi, but surely his obvious close relationship with Yuki and willingness to protect her would raise some interesting questions among the upper echeleon.

662 xxxxxxxxthe Sun locks the Heavens xxxxxxxxthe Moon eclipses the Night 博士月子
Jūnibantai Taichō As Tsukiko was teleported from the inner cube, the cords detached from her body and without delay, hooked on to one another as if they were made for this purpose, thus keeping the barrier formed. As Tsukiko appeared next to Lee, compliments thrown her way were pushed aside as she sent a wireless command to the cords to reduce the barrier's size. Receiving the command, the cords began to go to work. First the smaller rods were detached, breaking the smaller cube apart and reducing the tesseract to a simple large cube. Without giving an option for Dolor's escape, the cords moved the smaller rods around Dolor, fashioning a new Sekkiseki barrier around him, only smaller and more Dolor-sized, leaving less bulk. With the completion of the new inner cube, the outer cube fell apart, the rods dropping the ground below and the cords holding them falling limp. Tsukiko looked on at the smaller barrier and turned her attention to Lee and the others. "Thanks, I think." For the moment, she was nearly drained of energy as it had taken quite a bit of electrical and magical energy out of her to spam all of those Kidō at once, let alone hold Taichi Sōji Tama for so long and on top of that, let out all that energy to keep the cords out and turn on the rods. She was badly in need of a recharge and it needed to come within several minutes or her body would shut down.
Her Zanpakutō sealed itself, releasing any gravitational effects she had created, and causing her clothes to vanish, leaving her completely naked chassis for all to see. Though she was unable to show physical exhaustion, Jūshin's sealing would prove that she was drained since Bankai never sealed themselves without good reason. Watching Zenos, she saw his sign language and quickly deciphered it, despite her never having seen such a method of communication before. After relaying this information to Yuki in the form of words, Tsukiko clutched Jūshin and buried the tip of it's saya into the ground, using it like a cane. "My plan... First, I will speak to Aurelius... Then I intend to go about finding this leader of theirs and either kicking his a** into submission or coming to some sort of agreement about our world. I'm going to use little Dolor here as a bargaining chip, hence my lack of, you know, giving him a severe case of death. Believe me, after he killed Hei, I want nothing more than to see him die, but now is not the time, and the time may never come... This has gone on long enough, so I suggest all our Captains be ready in half a day to move. I have a feeling they may live far outside the Soul Society. That's the gist of it anyway, but first I need... well, a nap." Naturally, Tsukiko withheld her real reason for finding their leader, from the others, but once more she had hidden it well. She had no intention of revealing her real purpose for capturing Dolor, and some may never find out. "Aside from that, it is clear we need some form of a leader since Tomomi is gone. I'd nominate myself, but I'm aware of how irrational I can get at times... I'd say there is another Hakase that has shown an increase in power recently and to ignore it would be foolish. Yuki might be the best shot at such a rank..." Though it sounded as though she was only praising her mother and trying to get her elected the replacement Captain because of their relationship, it was not. Her opinion was strictly professional, though she knew how tough it would be to get others to see that, especially given how bias her opinion was. Hopefully her refusal of the title for herself had helped a little, though she did truly believe she couldn't handle the job.

Masashi, Lee, Gobantai Taicho"Telling me to go. But hands beg me to stay. Your lips say that you love. Your eyes say that you hate. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. What you build you lay to waste. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. All I've got's what you didn't take. So I, I won't be the one. Be the one to leave this. In pieces. And you, you will be alone. Alone with all your secrets. And regrets, don't lie. You promised me the sky. Then tossed me like a stone. You wrap me in your arms. And chill me to the bone. There's truth in your lies. Doubt in your faith. All I've got's what you didn't take."
Lee shrugged at Hibiki's statement of impressive being an understatement since to be honest he didn't want to risk the chance of giving Tsukiko an inflated ego like her father. Still it was true but he was also sure the girl didn't want to get bombarded with praise either and his comment was more or less just him being truthful and impressed. Hearing Nu starting to give orders to bring Dolor to the labs to be questioned Lee just shook his head. "Interrogation won't work on him. He would just enjoy it too much to actually say anything of importance. I agree with Yuki-san and that he should remain here for the time being. As for the Sotaicho I agree that they likely have him in another dimension of their own making." Staring at Zenos as the Arrancar reappeared in front of Yuki and signed Lee couldn't help but noticed the glance he received from the man returning it until the Arrancar disappeared from sight. Why he seemed to be so trusted was beyond him. Sure Zenos had protected Yuki but only Yuki who he obviously had some connection to through Hei which in all honesty didn't surprise him.
For the time being however Lee would leave it alone and forget about his distrust of hollows until their next battle. Tsukiko's speech suddenly shattered his thoughts as her Bankai forcibly sealed itself which was always a sign of extreme exhaustion. Her clothes seemed to have disappeared as well and despite her clearly not having a human body Lee took his haori and draped it over the girl's shoulders to at least prevent possible humiliation. Aside from that he let her finish her speech before saying anything giving her a light pat on the shoulder afterwards and speaking in a whisper to the girl. "You can go ahead and get yourself some downtime to recuperate. You are going to need it to be able to do what we will have to do. Uh good job."
Saying her Father would be proud seemed not be such a good idea right now and as such Lee didn't bother. It would probably mean nothing coming from him anyway because of his general relationship with Hei. Afterwards Lee turned towards the others and cleared his throat to prepare for what he had to say. "I agree with Tsukiko-san and also nominate Yuki-san for the position. We do not know how long the Sotaicho will be missing and not having someone to take over for him is a bad idea. Yuki is more than experienced enough to take over the position and unlike some of us I do not feel she would abuse the position. She has the power to take over for him certainly in light of recent developments. Like it or not she is the only one of us that is truly qualified in all areas and carries the power necessary to be Sotaicho. Therefore I have no objections and put my full support behind her taking the position. That is all. Goodbye discuss it amongst yourselves to your hearts content." Turning on his heel Lee gave everyone else one last glance before walking towards his Division disappearing after a few seconds using Shunpo to leave having said all he needed or wanted to say.

⋆⋆⋆∥ＥＬＩＳＩＡ xＲＩＹＵ
☇【ｓｑｕａｄxｆｏｕｒxＣＡＰＴＡＩＮ 】 Elisia smiled back at her former Captain, who seemed to be doing rather well and who seemed to be much better than she had been before. At least, that was one less thing she had to worry about for the meantime. “Well, it’s good that you won’t get younger and your abilities have improved.” As Yuki ruffled her hair, a sudden strange feeling swept over Elisia and she felt a little weird for a bit. Oh, maybe Yuki’s powers were slightly out-of-control? That often happened, especially when powers had just come back. Alright, this was…odd. Yuki’s Reiryoku had passed into her body and thus, it was something that Elisia had not too much experience with. Actually, that shouldn’t be anything that anybody should be used to. A sigh of relief escaped her as her Reiryoku was restored back to normal. When Yuki asked about how she was going with her Division, she pulled a wry smile, nervously running her hand through her hair. It had been pretty sudden, but she was getting used to it, right? Well, hopefully, she’d be fine and get used to all this in a while. Lifting her head, she nodded, saying quietly, “It was sort of…sudden, to tell you the truth, but I’m sure I’ll get used to it in time. It’s alright so far…”
Shutting her mouth to let the others speak, she surveyed the figure of Dolor. Would they be able to interrogate him? His entire manner gave off the air of arrogance and people like that would rather die than give up their idea of what they considered ‘honour’. Maybe it might be better to simply use like…a truth-inducing drug or something like that? Then again, that was just an idea since something like that drug might not even exist in the world. Now that they had Dolor under wraps, there was always the problem of how they would keep him. Tsukiko would hopefully take care of that, since she doubted that other Division members would know exactly what with the machine and keep it intact. Scanning the nearby area, she let out a low whistle at the sheer intensity of the damage which had been caused. This had gone from a funeral to a fight, and they had been fighting somebody that had not expected to arrive. It looked as if Hei’s tombstone was still intact, though, so that was rather good, since it would be a pity to see such a great man not be given the proper burial. Then again, it had already been pretty bad in that an enemy had decided to interrupt this burial.
As Tsukiko nominated Yuki, Elisia nodded, thinking quietly to herself. For now, that would be the best thing to do and maybe everyone should get some rest. While Elisia herself was not that tired, she had to admit that most likely Tsukiko was and some of the others, since Elisia had rested for the past week or so. Standing straight, she replied, “I support Yuki taking over the position. She is the best qualified for the job and very experienced as well.” Elisia didn’t continue on, though there could be a lot of things she could have said about her former Captain. Others might think Elisia might be slightly biased too, due to the fact that Yuki was her former Captain so it was best to simply put her support up and let the others thrash this one out. Anyway, she had her full faith that Yuki would be able to pull through and convince the others of her worth. Arranging herself in a more comfortable position, she lounged about for a bit, waiting for everything to be sorted out before she left. That was just in case there might be something important said… ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬ ▬▬▬▬▬

Tadashi sighed and looked over at the tombstone after being a spectator to several certainly out-of-place events.
'Weakling,' said Tenma suddenly. Tadashi blinked in surprise and looked down at his sword - it was the first time in a week since it had spoken. Tadashi assumed the zanpakuto was angry about the outcome of his battle with Eriko, so he didn't expect to hear anything from the blade in a place like this.
'Is that all? You're acting like a child, my sadistic blade.'
He suddenly felt like leaving. Tadashi was in no mood to stick around any longer, and he was especially not in a mood to have his own sword state the very word that summarized what he thought of himself.
"Excuse me, Hibiki-taicho."
He turned away from the tombstone and walked away.

» I w ill C Ø N † R Ø L • E V E R Y • T HIN G» ------- ;; Feel my ✖ BURNING ✖ soulAas much as she wanted to question Yuki's rather strange relationship with the Arrancar, there was more pressing matters to be had, like finding Tomomi. "Alright, we'll leave him here then..." About to leave, taking some wise advice from Tsukiko, she turns when she begins their dire need for a leader, the chosen choice automatically being Yuki. Emotions aside, she needed to see the situation in a more rational light. Yuki had now just displayed enough power to be on par with Tomomi or even greater. "She has my vote, the sooner we get him, the sooner this is all over..."
Tsukiko nominated Yuki not based on relation, but skill, something she found refreshing in this bleak day. "Well, we need rest, hope you get some sleep as well Yuki.." With a final wave, she leaves in a quiet shunpo, heading for heading for her bed.

"Freedom comes at the cost of your fearful ways. Pay it." Eriko switched to automatic reactions as the event unfolded around her. A smile Shunpo kept her out of harm's way as the Arrancar defended Yuki from an invisible attack with a massive black Cero. Nu's utterances went unnoticed by her as Tsukiko's chanting gibberish stole her attention. The released mass of Kido from the recent Junibantai Taicho as well as the subsequent attacks scared her, to say the least so the Fukutaicho kept her distance as the others began to help her. As Elisia went into Shikai, something dislodged inside her, a feeling of no emotional pain. It was pleasing to feel such a loss but disturbing since she did not know why it had happened exactly. Then, Tetsu was on the move. Eriko was grateful that she was behind the man as bones started growing out of nowhere but were mostly under where Dolor was supposed to be with one just in front of the fellow Lieutenant. Other things took place but nothing prepared her for Yuki's sudden surge in power and presentation of it as the once Yobantai Taicho contributed to the rain of attacks on Dolor.
Frankly, she had expected him to die, simply put then and there from all that ammunition focused on him. However, Eriko watched, stricken with awe at this point, as Dolor manuevered his way through almost all the attacks thrown his way. Her Shikai released itself without her spoken command and formed a barrier around herself and others who were not as smart to do the same as the Exaequare caused explosion after explosion and sometimes taking the attacks head on with a manic happiness in his eyes. Who was this guy to feed off being sliced, skewered and burnt as if it were a Sunday lunch? In any case, it did not matter, with Tsukiko doing something else that went completely over her head and so she only gazed from within her own circular reiatsu barrier at the cubes being formed but the idea of their purpose came to her with Tsukiko voiced gloating at Dolor. With her own eyes on the robotic girl, she did not miss the look over at her Captain. Eriko did not dismiss this for some reason and waited for the Gobantai Taicho's reaction which was transportation of the girl next to him.
Everything seemed to be coming to a stand still or at least, the pace of events was slowing down considerably. People had the time to talk to each other. With her barrier intact, Eriko dashed to her Captain's side and stayed there as Nu suggested what they could do with the hopefully captured Exaequare but Yuki soon dismissed it and asked Zenos for further information. This was met by a load of signage that she could not interpret from this distance and so left it alone. If needed, Yuki would relay his answer. The whisper of a Garganta atop the near hill stole her attention for a second before the changes in the cubes around Dolor altered to be a better fit for him. Tsukiko's change in appearance had no affect on her either even if her Captain clothed her in his haori. She would have to request the return of that. Putting it at the back of her mind, Eriko listened to the young Junibantai Taicho's speech, nomination of her mother as Sotaicho replacement and found that she agreed with her Captain even if he had left already. Others agreed and so, the Fukutiacho found that there was no more reason for her to stay - except the Captain's haori of the Gobantai.
She allowed herself to sit on a nearby rock and watched Tsukiko. "She has my vote as well. There is nothing to argue about it really." It was silly staying in a place like this for an article of clothing but she just wanted to make sure that it was returned to its owner safely and secure, even if it was in Tsukiko's possession at the moment. Jesus is my Lord ♥
