Her eyes still stared at the figure with no emotion portrayed on her face. The thought of the figure calling her ‘mother’ puzzled her greatly. Why was he calling her ‘mother’ and Kazi ‘father‘? Was he one of Kazi’s children or something? One of them that were unknown? Maybe that was it. For the first time, Yomiko reached out towards the Kazi look-alike, or most notably her son. Her hand cupped his cheek, as if to see if he was real or not. She gave him a sad smile.
“I’m sorry…” She whispered.
She couldn’t help but feel her heart drop as the figure mentioned Kazi and his death. After she had found out about his death, she pushed the sad event in the depths of her mind. Yomiko had no idea how the man died, and she couldn’t say that she didn’t care. She did care, a lot. She wanted to know, badly. Pursing her lips, as her eyes finally were cast down. It was her fault, since she wasn’t there. The woman knew if she was there, maybe he wouldn’t have died. Yomiko dropped her hand from her cheek.
“You don’t think I don’t know that. I know it is my fault… You don’t have to tell me twice…,” She told him quietly. “By the way, what’s your name?” She asked.

"My name is unimportant." Ezru said "But since you are my mother, I will tell you." Ezru said as he tried hard not to move away and draw his sword as he had promised Kurai. "My name is Ezru Kimishima, the only son of Kazi Kimishima, and his greatest creation." Ezru said, his calm demeanor rattled by his fear and anger towards his mother.

She examined Ezru’s demeanor sometime afterward. When Ezru tried to maintain his look, it tipped her off greatly. He must’ve not wanted to have anything to do with her. That was reasonable, she wasn’t there for him. Her son harbored feelings of anger towards her, and she had to admit that she could not have blamed him for having such feelings. She disliked her father because he didn’t want to have anything to do with her. He wouldn’t even come visit her or do anything of the sort. But, that was not Yomiko’s case. She hadn’t even known that Ezru existed till now. If he disliked her so much, maybe she could…
She shook her head with a sigh. A sorrowful look dawned on her face. “Ezru… I know how you feel about me… I had the same feelings towards my father at some point. Our meeting probably won’t do anything to shift your feelings about me… You’re my son. If I would’ve known of your existence back then, I wouldn’t have left the Valley. If Kazi would’ve told me then, I wouldn’t have left…,” She let out a sigh. “It was foolish to even leave, knowing that your father would do something… dumb…,” A small smile appeared on Yomiko’s face as she thought about Kazi. “An eccentric man, he was… and I loved him. I loved him so much. His blood is on my hands. It’s my fault. If I was there, he wouldn’t have died… I just wish I can reverse time so I can see him one last time… and maybe… even meet you, so you won’t hate me as much…”
[[Sorry for taking so long. Had to go to the hospital... ]]

Saiko entered the Labyrinth late after being left by Ryan and the others earlier, and walked up behind someone very familiar. He put his hands over Ashley's eyes, and spoke to her in a babyish tone.
"Oi, can yu guezz who it iiiis?" he said, mocking her... "Ashie-chan."
Telling her his little nickname was a dead givaway, so he pulled his hands back, replacing them behing his head, as his eyes went chibi and a sweat droplet slid down his head.
He was sure his cousin could smell him anyways, because he was walking for quite some time, and was now sweating profusely.
"Hhhmmm, I see you've made a new friend too, huh?" Saiko said, looking upon Ishi again..
Saiko was either dehidrated or just plainly deprived of energy from the walk, because Ishi's outfit glowed about her, resuming that of a pink angel.

The shinigami had made their entrance,fought off most of the arrancars in the labyrinth and were determent to move towards the castle where the highest of arrancar resided,either they were very brave of really dumb to even possibly think that they would be able to rescue their 'precious' shinigami team mate's.Soon enough they would discover that coming to las noches would be their greatest mistake.
It was after the vizard named Dift galewind launched his cross shaped energy blast towards the privaron espada Vizu which clearly knocked him of his feet and forced him unto the floor.The presence of a monstrous reiatsu washed of the entire labyrinth,A few of the shinigami's would probably faintly recognise this signature.The presence emitted an uncontrollable thirst for blood.It was as if the presence was absorbing bits of everyone's reiatsu and at the same time it was as if the reiatsu began to affect the shinigami,vizard and even arrancars minds.
This was an abnormal side affect that increased the blood lust,rage,jealousy,irritation and envy within one's being without them knowing it.
it was then that the presence made it's appearance seen by stepping out of the shadows and standing amids the shinigami and vizard.White waist length hair,a pair of glasses of which the left glass was completely black which prevented anyone from seeing his left eye. This time he wore a knee length white coat which also had a high collar covering up to over his mouth,baggy type hakama and the usual white stockings and sandals that all other espada wore.
By now the pressure in the labyrinth had become so severe that the random hollow that walked it's hallways were instantly crushed into the ground and reduced to reiatsu particles.
"Why do you serreitei scum-"raising his hand towards his face,he used his index finger to push his glasses back up."keep showing up on our territory"Dropping his hand down to his side he he tilted his head to the left and looking at the vizard that called himself the 'Twilight Reaper' and chuckled a bit under his high collar."What an interesting surprise,seeing you alive."The young man said as his right indigo coloured eye glowed faintly."To bad you'll be dieing when that privaron hits you."the first espada said before turning around and walked over to a nearby wall.
Standing in front of the wall he opened his palms revealing a hole in each palm from which countless feathers began to drop forming into a throne on which the first espada sat down crossing his left foot over his right and placing his elbow on the arm rest.After doing that he clenched his hand into a fist and leaned his head on top of it.

((You call that short?))
Kevin had Arrived with Triox into the labyrinth whom was already showing his reiatsu to everyone to make their presence known to everyone in the labyrinth. He already had nis mask manifested over his face, but he was still in the shadows.
"Maybe they don't know when to cut their losses." He said to Triox comming out of the shadows after Triox said something about Shinigami on their territory and spiking his reiatsu even further. "Pity really." He added as a throne was made on his left making it look as if Kevin was at Triox's right hand Kevin placed his left hand on his Zanpakuto as it it was an arm rest. 'Now I wonder who is going to make the first move.' He thought to himself.

Artemis Kalis Artemis turned around , and stuck his tonge out at Maxi before turning back at Toshiro mumbling some words that were directed at Maxi something about max being a big old meany. When he was done with his little fit he looked over at Toshiro the grin back on his face.
"Mt name what was it again."He said pretending to stupid to fool Toshiro but really he was coming up with a plan for the fight that would insue."Oh yeah my name is Artemis Kalis whats yours.
He still had his priorities. His first task was to get as close to Yomiko as he can. He need to separate her from Erzu. It was a mother's touch that allowed him to be so close. At that distance, it would be deadly for Yomiko. He didn't know what this man was truly capable of but it was still an element that he had to place into his equation. The ice clones made a barrier between him and Artemis. Who should know better then to attack Hitsugaya at the moment. The clones were directly linked to his mind. They thought as one as well as groups. Too often then not, he relied on them heavily as the eyes and ears of his situation. They were reliable and loyal. They allowed Toshiro to play the battle field like a game of shogi. Drift and Maxi are the hard hitters of the groups. They would be classified as the dragon horse and the dragon king. These pieces are deadly from afar and up close. Yomiko would be the knight. With her quick and agile movements, she would be able to avoid most dangers and conflicts. Along with it, attack at various points in which others are bounded by their movement. Tenrai and Oath, they would be the lances. They hit hard in one way or another. If they stick together, they would be deadly. As for Toshiro himself, he would act as a bishop. One that would be able to get around and aid all those he can. Carefully analyzing where he can attack and using the home field to his advantage.
Together, they were able to hold their own for some time. Against an outstanding force, one would need to fight smarter. If they were to go ahead an attack separately, everyone would be whittled down and eventually be killed. Toshiro wished that somehow he would be able to communicate with the rest of the squad. He shunpo'd into the air and brought his blade down to meet with Erzu, hoping that he would be able to separate Yomiko from him.
"Get away from her!" He yelled.

((I'm just going to act like this is after the Meeting, since it's been a while since it was started. Enter, Asuma :3))
As Toshiro's blade flew down at Erzu, a small spike in reiatsu could be felt from far down the Hall, one of the Dark paths that had been identified. As soon as the spike appeared, it dissipated, making it seem like a Hollow or something else had come, only to go away again. Although, as the spike dissipated, one signature much larger came flying down the hall, as a slight crimson haze appeared, as Toshiro's blade was slammed away from it's intended target. As soon as the thin and almost invisible haze made a small trail behind the figure, the wall behind Erzu seemed to be hit by something, as a small crimson lining stayed at one spot. As his form blurred back into sight, Asuma pushed off the wall, landing on the ground behind Erzu. His blood red eyes looked from Yomiko, to Toshiro, stopping on Erzu. His left hand moving up to his face, Asuma removed the mask that covered from his nose down, letting it fall to where his neck met his chest, the leather strap stopping it from falling any further. His expression set in an annoyed yet bored look, Asuma suddenly sighed, closing his eyes and shaking his head.
"Erzu...why is it that you always have to put yourself in danger that can be avoided. Honestly." Sighing again, Asuma's eyes slowly opened, getting a good look at everyone in front of him. Maxi, still walking down the lighted path. Drift, fighting the Privaron. Kevin and Triox, staying in that one place. Oath and Tenrai, watching. And then finally, this woman in front of Erzu. Yomiko, it seemed. Erzu's mother. Staring at her, Asuma looked her over for a second, his arm slightly getting hotter, as a slight clanking sound could be heard coming from him. He could tell, just from her reiatsu, she was a Vizard. As was Drift. "So, you must be Yomiko, if I'm correct. So, this is why you've come here?" aiming the last part at Erzu, Asuma frowned. "You could've just waited for her to come to us. But then again...you've never been one to wait, have you."
Getting an annoyed undertone in his voice, Asuma decided to finally acknowledge the rest of them. Resting his right hand on his zanpaktou's hilt-that was strapped to his right hip-Asuma stood there for a second, looking at everyone once again. "Now, who wants to go first?" Starting to grin, Asuma's look turned into a kind of Gin style grin, as he said it to them. He knew that as shinigami, they would of course have to attack him. After all, he was a defect. It was their job. And since, Asuma had decided to wait for one of them to attack him first, he would see who had the shortest temper. They were always the ones to go first.

Drift then immediately gripped his wakizashi with his right hand as he heard Vizu's words, spit out his cigar, and used shunpo to get behind Vizu about 4 feet apart were he then extended his left arm at Vizu. He shaped his left hand like a gun using is index finger as barrel and his middle finger as trigger. He then started to focus his hollow energy into his left hand making it glow a grayish-red.
"It was not like that...I hate fighting...But with him...It is different...Rest in piece number....3...Cero..."
Just as Drift spoke the word, he pulled back on his finger, and doing that unleashed a massive grayish-red cero that completely enveloped Vizu's body and leaving a small crater in the floor were he had shot the cero at. He then gently landed back onto to the floor to then feel as if he was loosing a bit of strength. Drift then realized who it was and looked to see Triox but to his surprise Kevin was here as well.
"Well...Triox your same old adsorbing trick has not lost its touch...But Kevin...I never expected to see you here...I have must been stuck in the Twilight realm for quite some time...Well...I will not hold anything against you so as long as you stay out of my way...But I am rather curious ti why you join them...? No matter this is not the time or place for talk..."
Drift then looked around with out move his head or eyes to much to see who was all here enemies and allies alike. He then paused for a moment looking directly at Triox before he started to laugh out a little.
"Heheh...Hehe...Ah...Triox I see your god like attitude still has not change even since last time when Feiy nearly killed you before you decided flee...I mean a throne...? But enough talk of the past...I am not here for that...Lets be the wise-man people see us to be and come to a deal...Instead of all this drama...Instead of pointless fighting...Letsus two go some were private and have a fight...?How about a place...Were only those of twilight may proceed to...?A place with on interruptions...? I think is time to settle this little dispute once and for all..."
(Sorry for the short post in a rush but I just had to post now. If nothing happens later ill add more.)

Kurai slipped down another corridor just as the wall in front of her shifted and the layout of the labyrinth changed yet again. Instead of a right-hand turn, the path ahead now yielded a two-pronged fork. Considering her options and what she could sense of the battle, Kurai chose the right-hand path.
She could sense the flares of aura as several combatants, both arrancar and shinigami, dueled in these broad halls. She could even hear them, albeit faintly, if she pressed her ear to one cold wall. Of course, standing still in the labyrinth was dangerous the maze was changing too rapidly to allow for much delay.
Though she had slowed to negotiate the fork, Kurai sped up again, falling into her natural, quick lope. Ezru's pills had done the trick. The sedatives from Hawk's lab had been flushed from her system, and the pain of the cuts in her neck were nonexistant. Absently, she brushed a hand over them, and her fingertips came away with the distinct smell of blood. That must have been why Ezru wanted her to stay put and stay still.
And to take care of his pregnant wife. That shot a jolt of guilt through her, and she bit her lip. She really couldn't shake the notion that she was abandoning them.
But if she didn't find Yomiko and Toshiro... A graphic image of Ezru's blade thrust cruelly through Yomiko's chest spurred Kurai to redouble her pace. She clenched her teeth, grip tightening around the practice wakizashi that made a poor substitute for her missing zanpaku-to. The paper gown that was her only clothing fluttered around her legs, echoing her flurry of panic.
Should have looked for clothes... Kurai mused grimly. But that didn't matter, now, because the auras were strong in front of her. She dashed around several more turns. Straight ahead. She heard the telltale scraping as the labyrinth changed its path, and she all but flew towards the auras.
Too late, Kurai caught the scent of Toshiro's ice before a wall slid in front of her, cutting her off from the battle she could hear raging. Hardly bothering to glance around, Kurai could sense that the labyrinth had boxed her in. So close...
"No!" Kurai pounded her fist against the wall in frustration. One wall separated her from Yomiko and Toshiro. It didn't stop her from screaming his name at the top of her lungs, though she knew no one would hear. "Toshiro!"
She paced in front of the wall, willing the layrinth the free her, soon. She could feel three auras converging: Yomiko, Ezru, and Toshiro. Kurai couldn't protect Yomiko from here, and the idea tormented her.
"Come on," She addressed the bare walls. The labyrinth itself. "Let me out,"
[ok, i did disobey you, Ezru, but I'm not directly interfering, yet... ^^']
