Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was raining tonight in Tokyo, The quiet area of west Tokyo known as Karakara Town had been taking the brunt of the storm. The river began to flood and the people where keeping dry in their homes and offices. It was another typical night. Many people where still hard at work in their offices, others just got off and where driving home, Traffic was a mess as normal. There was a crash and a soft roar. The tall office building was spewing ash and smoke. People began to run from it just in time for another blast to hit the building next to it. Some of the people thought their eyes where playing ticks on them as they looked up and noticed the towering monters walking through their city. They where Menos Grande and no, their eyes did not deceive them.

People ran scared, some of them screaming "There's a monster attacking the city!" Before long it was on the news. Buildings where burning and cars lay crushed in the middle of the roads as the tyrant menos worked their way through the small town. Where was the help?

Captain commander Abaria Renji had issued two Captains to take down the Menos and save what could be saved in the world of the living.

Kagaya noticed that the first cuts he had made on the menos were starting to heal already. "Fine see if you can heal from this." He said as he raised his zanpaku-to straight up in the air. "Shower, Hyakuman Kooru." He said calmly as he brought his blade down. The sky was already filled with clouds from the clouds countless ice blades started to come down everywhere. Kagaya directed them with his will and sent them at the two menos. One of the menos unleashed a cero destroying some of the ice blades and if kagaya hadn't have gotten his zanpaku-to up in time and sliced the cero in half it would have seriously wounded him if not killed him. The rest of the ice blades struck the two menos cutting them to ribbons. Kagaya stood there in the aftermath watching as the two menos dirappeared, his uniform and haori smoking from all of the cero's that had just missed him. "There's something terribly wrong here those two were incredibly powerful for just being menos. I need to find Shinji and fast." He said as he vanished

There was a loud static sound as a figure high in the sky sonido'd into the area. Covered in a brown cloak, the figure stood motionless watching the shinigami and vizard. A darrk riatsu seemed to poor from form, its white zanpakuto peeking from its dark cloak.

"Wothless shinigami.." His deep voice echoed down to the two soul reapers. The fugures right hand gripped the white handle of his zanpakuto and slowly pulled it from it's sheath. HE took one step and with his speed he raced twords the shinigami, the very air around him breaking like glass. Once the form was in striking range he stepped into sonido and formed back behind the two shinigami. His cloak blowing away in the wind as a gash formed on the captains right arm.

" This maks the end of you..Shinigami. My name is Antonio Grantz Espada numero ocho( cool ." Light dawned on the espada, its white cloths shinned as the piece of bone on his forhead becme visible. He mans face was sad and its emotion never changed as he stated "That i the last name you will ever hear"

After knocking the Espada away Kagaya looked down at Shinji "Hey you gonna help or what?!?!" He yelled. He noticed that the clouds had stopped moving again, the wind was gone, perfect he could use the clouds to his advantage. The pain in his arm was starting to return the numbing effect of him freezing that part of his arm was going to cost him if he didn't end this soon. He was watching the Espada it looked as though he was going to charge Kagaya yet again. Kagaya flash stepped as fast as he could and brought his zanpaku-to crashing into the Espada's zanpaku-to pinning it to his side. Kagaya thrust his index and middle finger of his right hand onto the Espada's forehead. "Hadou number 4, white lightning." He said calmly not letting the espada have any time to block.

The cero's were almost completely surrounding Kagaya. He raised his zanpaku-to quickly and without waiting said "Shower, Hyakuman Ha Kooru." Again countless ice blades rained down but instead of directing them at the espada he directed them to himself and made them stop just inside the ceros creating a rietsu ice barrier. He called even more towards himself from every direction causing them to go for the espada as well. The ones that made it to the outside of his barrier collided with antonio's cero's creating small explosions but still his barrier stood and the ceros were all demolished. He saw a faint light, he raised his gauntleted left arm and started pouring rietsu into a cero millimeters from the gauntlet. The purple light looked like it was getting closer so Kagaya launched the blue cero. The two cero's went through the barrier and collided together. Antonio's was more powerful and Kagaya was blasted backwards. The barrier was shattered by the explosion and Kagaya hit the ground hard.

Antonio used all of his strength to stand, the wounds in the end would cut his life short and he would not leave the world of the living. His dark eyes opened as the zanpakuto hit the ground, its release went with it. As the espada's skin grew pail from the huge amount of blood he had lost his mouth cracked open, a bit of blood pooring from it. "This is just the beginning. Our leader will take care of you. He is closer than you think." His hand opened and a shred of a captains haori blew away with the wind. But it was not the captain he had been fightings haori. He leaned back against a tree to save his energy. He had enough to live on atleast a few more minutes. His eyes focused on the captain in front of him.

"Bring my zanpakuto to your leader. And tell him what I am..."
