Spark Casino is rather new to Karakura. It was set up by a man named Itsuki who is known as a con-artist by those who are close to him. Like most Casino's you come to play, and loose, and maybe just maybe win some money. The men and women all wear a basic uniform here. A black vest, a red button up dress shirt, dress pants, dress shoes and a black and raid striped tie that has a pendant of the company's symbol pinned to the tie. The Casino always bright day in and day out. They even hold special performances by local artists or celebrities from around the world.

Cassius rolled up his sleaves a bit. The uniform he was wearing was typical for the Casino here. He wore a black vest and a red button up dress shirt with a black and red striped tie. He wore dress pants and dress shoes, regular for an employee here. He was getting into his 10th game of the night, black jack was his specialty and his job was to not let people figure out his game. He cheats at black jack to help win more money for the house. You see Cassius was having a relationship with the man that owned it. Simple really, Cassius used the man to get cash out of him. He would do whatever he needs to make that man trust him, then eventually while he was sleeping he'd sneak and steal anything he wanted from the man and make a break for it. But now he had to keep winning and keep his cheating a secret. That was his plan, make money for the casino then steal what he wants. Of course Cassius has his plans with what he does with the money. He doesn't intend on keeping it for himself, a nearby orphanage run by a few religious leaders watches over children without homes or families. They get their donations and funding from Cassius. They don't ask questions and just assume that Cassius is a rich man. He doesn't believe that the rich should keep getting richer, and the poor or unfortunate should keep suffering. As of now Cassius had a job, play these people like cards and make sure his boss likes him more and more. But if he were to fail, there'd be dangerous consequences involved, more than he'd like to deal with.
"Soooo, ready to begin?" Cassius asked, dealing the two cards out to the man. One flipped up and one flipped over. Cassius did the same, although he knew what cards were where. He memorized the whole deck, every card, every position it had he knew and kept it that way. He could see what the man had before he even got to it. Cassius waited for the man to say hit me, or stay. The man knew what he had, and he knew that he had good chances, a total of 18. Not bad. Cassius on the other hand had already given himself a 20 and he already knew that this man was going to loose. The man said stay, and Cassius did the same. Revealing his total to the man, who scoured in defeat before stumbling off in a drunken stupor. Like most the men here. Even women too like to come here, get drunk and gamble. And Cassius had to play that, use it to his advantage. He was cunning for a reason. "I'm sorry, that is another win for the house. Anyone else want to try? Your chances of winning are great tonight. So far we have a few winners today who went home with a large some of cash! Whose up to try?" Cassius asked staring around. A few men giving him awkward looks. Cassius indeed looked feminine and men often confused him for a women, some even treated him like one, trying to buy him drinks and get him drunk so they can take him home. He doesn't fall for any of that, and knows all the tricks in the books done by the people here.

LIzabeth emerged from the massive Gargantia and jumped down onto the casino, she took a deep breath in and brushed herself off. She knew that Cladeux would be right behind her, she decided that she would go a head and wait. She stood on the edge, her silhouette hidden by the pale night sky. She looked down and saw all the humans walking in and out of the Casino. She smiled and thought about what it was like in there. She sat down and just observed while she was waiting for Cladeux.

Cladeaux walked out of the Garganta, and jumped onto the top of the casino, with a devilish smirk on his face. He inhaled a big breath of air, and with it, fifteen souls decided to leave their body today. "It's a nice day....isn't it." He said as he watched as people started to panic as people around dropped to the ground. "So, how should we have fun?"

Honō flashed into the seen just as suddenly as the intruders, but he was, of course, there for different reasons. Honō located the intruders instantly and drew his zanpakuto. He didn't know who or what these people were, but he knew what his duty was as a soul reaper. "You there! What are you doing here!? Explain yourselves now!" Honō would prepare himself to launch forward with an attack and release his Shikai if it was going to be necessary. With the level of spiritual pressure that these people had compared to his own, Honō would be allowed to take no chances and would have to let loose with his full strength.

"Hooh....An annoying little bug just stepped into our field." He said as he faced Lizabeth. "I'm here just for some sustenance. What are you doing here?" He said while sitting on roof, and uncorked another bottle of wine, held it to his mouth. "You can toy with this one...It's just not worth the time to me."

Lizabeth looked at the man as he launched a forward attack, she knew that he wasn't even close in power; but this could be fun for her. There was something about this boy, maybe it was his courage to stand up against her and Cladeux. She saw him unsheathe his Zanpakto and knew that he was taking them being there very seriously, she would take him seriously in turn. She pulled her Zanpakto from her back and it quickly met his blade "Don't you think it's a bit rude to demand information before you have given yours?"

Cassius was about to deal to the next man who was ready to play another round of black jack, Cassius smiled brightly knowing that he was going to win once again. Of course thats when he felt something strange, a very strong spiritual pressure....no two of them. He felt his head, feeling a migraine approaching from a long night at work, and ontop of it the strong spiritual pressures. He handed the man his card, when the guy grabbed for his heart gasping and panicking before collapsing to the ground. He noticed the same thing was happening to other people around them. Some just collapsed without saying anything. A women's scream echoed loudly throughout the Casino yelling "Someone call 911!" Another man frantically tried to bring back another ones life, doing CPR and the likes to see if they can revive the man. "Damn....my boss is going to be pissed." Cassius responded, grabbing a hold of his guitar case and quickly jumping over the table. "Hmph....my job is done here for tonight." He responded, before turning away from his workstation and stepping towards the front door to see where the spiritual energy was coming from. He pushed past the front doors and turned to stare upwards towards the rooftop of the Casino. He kicked past a dead man laying on the ground and continued to stare up searching for the spiritual energies.
It didn't take him long to see three figures, one appeared to be a women the others....two males perhaps? It was hard to focus and he couldn't keep a good eye on them. Feeling like he was going to pass out was definitely not something he wanted to feel but the pounding in his head wouldn't stop. His own spiritual energy leaking from his body outward. "Damn....I dont feel good....to think tonight was suppose to be my dinner night."

Honō winced from the immense spiritual pressure of the woman as her weapon met his own. She spoke to him and questioned his methods, leading to his slight irritation. "Fine!" Honō would sweep his blade and break away from their collision, pushing about three meters distance between them. He'd raise his zanpakuto and aim it at the woman before speaking. "I am Honō Raion, a soul reaper from the second division of the thirteen court guard squads. My job is to eliminate threats to the world of the living and maintain the balance here. If you are hollows or any type of threats to this place, then it is my duty to take you out. Whether I am capable or not does not matter as long as I perform my duties. So now tell me what it is you are doing here." Honō's spiritual pressure would increase as he prepared to release his shikai. He would not do so, though, until he would have to enter combat with these intruders.

As the man talked, she knew that this was the best time to get what she wantred. She used Sonido and appeared mere inches from his face; she gripped onto his wrist and looked into his eyes directly "My name is Lizabeth Salander, they call me the Clawed Espada." Her Spiritual Pressure would increase and so would her pupils "Brave little Shinigami...Do you know why I like the color Blue?" She pulled him closer, is she wasn't careful she would break his wrist. The excitement in her started to rise and rise, she was finally in the presence of the shinigami. His spiritual pressure was drowning in hers and she could feel it.

The spiritual pressure was so powerful that Honō nearly vomited all over himself when this woman pulled him in and increased the pressure. She then called herself an Espada. If this was true, it meant that Honō would never have any chance of winning. What he found most peculiar, though, was what she asked of him. She asked if he knew why she liked the color blue. "Blue," he muttered, trying to use all of his strength to even speak. "Why anyone would like that color is beyond me. The Mayan civilization in the sixteenth century dressed in blue in ceremonies of sacrifice. It is associated with nothing less than melancholy and pure sadness; I can't stand blue. Then again, that must be why you like it. Am I right?" Honō cracked a bit of a smirk, but his body weakened enough to where his head dropped and he could barely stay conscious. Her power far exceeded his own and he felt his life coming closer to its end.

Lizbeth caught his head before it could dip and she looked at him, the fact that he was still conscious she thought was admirable. She lifted his chin and looked at him directly, her pupils were massive and his were so small. She must have been affecting him directly with her pressure, she increased it more...just little bits at a time. She toyed with him now "Your right...do you wish to sacrifice yourself to me?" She kept her hand on his wrist and slid it down to work the Zanpakto out of his hand.

Honō's body was limp from the pressure. He couldn't move and felt like dying just to escape this feeling, but his sheer amount of will let him push on. His gaze met her's as she lifted his head. She tried to work his weapon out of his hand and succeeded, but with his zanpakuto went his will. He dropped to his knees before the woman and dropped his head to the ground, holding back tears from streaming out. He was just beaten by the woman's reiryoku alone. He should at least answer her, though. "I will not sacrifice myself, Ms. Salander... But do what you will with me now. I will die as the man I am, not as a sacrifice. I will die as Honō Raion!" After his exclamation of pride, Honō would remain still and on the ground as he awaited his death.

Cassius watched as the man fell to his knee's. He was lucky he had some distance between him and this women. Her spiritual pressure was making him sick, he didn't feel like he could speak correctly without tripping over his own words. Cassius recognized the man's garments, a Shinigami's outfit which Cassius known all to well about. He see's them everywhere he goes, pretending to not notice them and keeping his own spiritual pressure down."Im probably.....not going to do well for this." Cassius said, picking up a rock from the ground. He continued to let his guitar case stay on his back, the straps on his shoulder to keep it in place. "Hey you witch!" Cassius shouted, throwing the rock towards the woman. Trying to get her attention away from the Shinigami. He could hardly focus but his aim wasn't off, he was cunning and fast and knew how to aim. But what he made up for he lacked in the psyichal strength department. Cunning cant get you everywhere, but it sure can get you out of stick situations.

Lizabeth grabbed around his waist and kicked the Zanpakto off the roof, she began to tap on his face to keep his conscious "Why do you resist me Hono?" She picked him up with one arm and she stood on the edge of the casino, she pointed his head towards the humans walking below "Why do you protect them Hono? If you were to sacrifice yourself to me; do you think that they would even notice?" She looked at them mingling and socializing, she wanted to hurt them so bad...but at the same time she pitied them all at the same time " They destroy everything they walk on and your quick to defend them, your a mumble to them...a whisper on histories lips. "
Out of no where, she caught the rock that was thrown at her, she looked at it and turned to Cassius " You must not throw stones... " She smirked, she was going to make this very easy for him. She positioned the rock and flicked it back at him, she had practice at flicking them with her Espada companion Cladeux.
