That Crazy B-tch!

Forsaken's overly large zanpaktou was by Riku's neck in a heartbeat the moment he insulted her intelligence. Until that point her spiritual pressure simply boiled a little higher with each thing he said until he finally insulted her openly. Now she was furious. The man had completely stepped out of line due to a misinterpretation of what she had said..

"I will say this one time.. There will not be a second time.. You know nothing of me and have no right to insult the way I function. Battle is battle.. you fight to win or you die.. There is never glory or honor within it.. Those who fight and win survive.. those who fight and lose usually die.. That is the simple fact of battle.. You insult MY intelligence? Take a look at your own.. I said they were cowards who could not FORM UP to defend their home. Right after my captain said they hadn't abandoned trying to RECLAIM our home.."

She moved the blade back to her back at this point and continued staring at Riku with every possible inclination in her voice and spiritual pressure that she was one push from trying to kill him, "That means I am upset and hateful that our people are just NOW making these plans to retake our home considering how LONG it has been since it fell.. A new captain commander? Where is Aki? Why did he flee? Why did he not show himself afterwards in Karakura like the rest of us? You insult me for being outraged by our lack of Unity?!? Have you NO pride as a shinigami!?"

She turned her head and humphed as she turned around to follow Jensen out of the tent as he had ordered but she stopped for a moment feeling she wanted to say something further at the door, "I fight and I fight and I will keep on fighting.. if that means I have to fight alone because my comrades cannot unite to fight with me for the sake of our home.. So be it.. you can call it stupidity.. you can say I'm trying to die in a blaze of glory.. but in the end I'm the one trying to do something while everyone else sits on their ass twiddling their thumbs.. those cowards.."

Forsaken looked back at Riku at this point though he wouldn't have seen her eyes due to the blindfold..her tone of voice changed drastically from hate filled to more caring, "I am glad you all held up so well.. you and your resistance are not counted among those cowards in my mind.." She then left with Jensen after that fully ready for combat and back to her usual self.

Jensen had mentioned putting the fear of god into these maggots..

...Forsaken fully intended to do so..

Riku didn't even flinch as he stared her down. At least they were on the same page on battle. But the misunderstanding was cleared up. "We're on the same page on our view point of battle. The misinterpretation was in fact, my fault, and I apologize. To be fair, the retreat was pretty hasty and no set destination was ever pointed out. And who said he fleed? Perhaps he died in the fighting. Who knows. Obviously, if he's still alive, he'd have to explain himself. But we'll see if he does show up or if he did in fact, die. But also remember that I am here on AKI's orders. No one else's. That fact should say a lot. But...no pride in being a shinigami? Sweety...I was born half human and most likely half shinigami, but inherited the shinigami side of powers. I haven't even investigated the origin of my mother who detailed everything of the spiritual world. I already knew of Soul Society, much of its history, I was already learning kido spells when I was alive. I vowed to stand up for it, to protect it. I always knew that I was going to sign up and become a shinigami when I died. To say I have no pride as one is as much of an insult to me as what I said to you was to you. The lack of unity is disheartening, but it can be overcome. You don't have to fight alone...all it takes is a little bit of organization and rounding up troops. You're in a leadership position, correct? Use that authority and get things done yourself. Who knows...perhaps enough will listen that even your superiors will have to pay attention to you. But you also have a good point. Actions often speak louder than words. Action with a goal in mind can accomplish a lot of things. But action without a goal in mind will accomplish nothing. Going after that power wouldn't have served your purposes. Coming here and fighting and causing a ruckus...that possibly could give the so called cowards a drive to get off their asses and do something, start planning for the reclaim, and get here to do it. Even if you didn't initially thought of it...the end result would be worth the attention it garnered." In the end, even if their methods are different, it would seem Riku and her had respect for each other.

He got up and joined them. His shikai appearing, and the chain and dagger wrapping around his torso and arms, though not restrictively. "No...just me. Call it a bit of showing off if you will...though you and your subordinate have beaten me to it...oh well." He heard Jensen's plan. "Why go through them when you can go around them and bypass most of them? Hitting their last line while by passing the front can do much of the same thing. While you do run the risk of getting flanked yourself, a blitzkreig approach can get you out of there before that happens. And like I said...I have something that will make that hell for them and even make them retreat themselves. If you will, I can make sure that we won't be flanked." He was referring to his toukai. Since his fight with Jalik, he's gotten better with it. "But I'll go with whichever you choose. Just remember that we have the advantage of knowing the sewer layout. You can get to almost anywhere you want with it."

Jensen let the tension in the room disolve by itself and then they left. Riku had a modification to the plan. Jensen shrugged. "Actually, Riku, I'm not worred about escaping.. I've been inactive for to long. I want to hurt the maggots on the way out. besides, we can't just leave you with a whole group of enemies to take care of while we leave. Im pretty sure forsaken will try to kill me if I make her leave with enemies still within range.

Jensen entered the sewers and headed in the direction of the gate. "If we go all out, which wont be hard because two of us are already in toukai, they dont really stand a chance. I can feel a few strong powers up there but nothing we cant handle." He said. He found an exit and climbed up. It was shielded from view by a low wall. Jensen recognized the place, it was close to his old barracks.

Climbing up he looked around the wall. There, ahead, was the group blocking their path. "I doubt they dont know we're here. So their wating. I'll let you deal with keeping us from being flanked and surrounded, but 'we're not leaving until they've retreated and your on your way out of here safely." Jensen emmersed himself in the void, removing all distractions. "Attack." He said calmly to Forsaken.

Jensen burst out from cover and was met with a volley of low level kido. He threw up his shield and charged through it. Shunpo took him close and he threw up his sword. A ball of energy formed and started sucking everything around it towards it, so allot of low level fighters. It then exploded with the force of a gran rey cero, tossing bodies all around, into the other enemies. If the explosion didn't kill everything within 30ft they were some hardy warriors.

Then Jensen just started hacking at everything left right and centre. His shield shrugged off attacks with ease, and he smashed with it with great force behind it. Then he was met with one of the stronger enemies weilding a bladed bow. The attacker kept thier distance and pelted Jensen with black arrows. He moved evasively using his shield to block the arrows, and then countered with two swings of his weapon that launched blades of energy at his foe. The first was dodged and hit a group of soldiers instead, but he must not have expected a second because it smashed into his gut. He survived, and went back to shooting at Jensen.

Forsaken leapt up and bullrushed the enemy formations with a wild warcry as Jensen commanded her to attack starting off with firing three cero-like beams of pure gravity into the enemy ranks which either missed them completely or hit them due to it's suctional force drawing things in towards the beam. When the explosion caused by Jensen occured something suddenly slammed into the side of Forsaken and sent her puddle skipping across the ground quite a ways.. when she snapped out of her sudden daze she pulled what looked like a javelin out of her armor and cringed slightly as she stood up in quite a bit of pain.

"Captain!" She said loud enough so that even the commotion of battle wouldn't drown her out. It seems letting the commander girl go earlier was a bad idea. The big boys were showing up to play now. One of which having been the cause of Forsaken's sudden launch. They really didn't want anyone leaving after all.. The "big boys" powered up to their maximum making their presence known throughout the battlefield as the top dogs of the maggots army. Though the massive power that was felt near Aizen earlier was not among them.

Forsaken never made it a step closer to the Senkaimon due to the javelin man being right ontop of her by the time she recovered. The first time she blocked the man's javelin she was bounced off the ground due to some strange power with his weapon. The blow itself was nothing! So how was he bouncing her around!?! She countered his next blow with a wave of energy launched from her blade that was the same size as her sword. She was still launched but she didn't lose her footing this time so she merely skid backwards on her feet. Unfortunately one of the other "big boys" joined the fight while the other five scattered themselves between Jensen and Riku.

Looks like making them fear god was going to be far more difficult than she thought.. The new guy was a fire user and seemed pretty masterful over it.. She dipped and dodged the big guy as best she could and used her reisu gravity balls to counter the flames. She wasn't going to be able to beat them both however.. Her main advantage was lost as long as this Javelin man was around..

He wanted to smack Jensen upside the head. "Dude...you know how many times I've been outnumbered? I've gotten out of sticky situations before...you don't need to worry..." Though he completely understood the sentiment.

Then it was time to attack. He went into bankai. It was then he sensed it. "Look out!" Too late, as one already got Foresaken. He himself, bent and twisted, avoiding the girl from earlier and a partner. They backed off and went into bankai of their own. From what he could tell, the girl was the same strength as him, and the guy that partnered with her was slightly weaker, but not enough to make a difference. Still...it seemed the two on Foresaken was really taking her on for a ride. There was no room for holding back. "Toukai..." His reiatsu exploded, and the area started to snow, gently. He now had jeans, a hoodie sweatshirt, and retractable blades on the back of his arms that made him seem like an assassin. The temperature also lowered to 0 degrees F, but that was somewhat being countered by the flame guy.

The girl from earlier yawned. "Yes yes...we know...somewhat...that's how you defeated Jalik..." She charged him as her partner used a pair of darkness tendrils to defend her...or tried to. Riku summoned his shield as he had ice fling and send the tendrils into disarray. He shield bashed her. They knew of the new form...but not of the abilities. She was smashed against the wall as a baseball size snow flake fell near the man that was giving Foresaken trouble, the one with the javelin. Riku willed it to explode into an ice spikey ball the size of a basketball. Two others would be flung at the man with fire. A lightning bolt would strike down on top of one of Jensen's opponents too with the strength of a cero.

The girl came at him again, hitting the shield. Riku slammed his fist into the shadow, already sensing her partner try to use it. He actually hit something, the man in fact. The guy skidded back a ways. The girl front flipped to get to him, and slashed with her sword. Riku used the blade to defend. From the shadows of her hair though, several needles were spat out at him. Three scaped against his face, four lodged themselves into his shoulder, and one into his leg.

But the failed dodge put him into a good position. He put his palm at her bare stomach. She was shocked and tried to move back, even as a black scythe came from his shadow and attacked, hitting his shield instead. He used his electralysis ability, in the concentrated form, and blew a hole into her gut. He kicked her out of the way, even as she slashed him. "Hado 63: Raikoho!" A yellow blast of energy was fired at the man with the javelin as seven ice spikey balls went to slam into any of the three that Jensen was fighting, even manuevering around Jensen should he get in their way.

The shadow guy seemed like a ranged attacker. That was fine. "Bakudo 21: Senkianton!" Thick red smoke consumed the entire area, making visibility difficult for all parties. Unless they could sense very well or used something to blow away the smoke. In the process, he had used Sajo Sobaku to latch onto Forsaken and hopefully fling her towards the darkness guy for her to crush. And out of danger, if only for a few seconds.

The girl was up and on him again. She just did not know when to quit...

The archer created some distance as a new opponant hopped out at him, swinging a hammer. The blow shook his arm and pushed Jensen away, as the archer attacked with more arrows. At the same time forsaken called out. He backed off and looked. She'd been him, and looked hard pressed. He was about to help when a third enemy with knives came at him from behind. He'd have missed the man if it weren't forsaken.

He spun and slashed his sword, cutting across the man's chest. The wound healed quickly even though it sent the man sprawling. Jensen turned back in time to meet the warhammer with his shield. More black arrows shot at him but hit and skipped of his thick armor. Jensen knew he was in trouble, though the pressing danger did not weigh on his mind, the void kept back every concern.

Riku who had his own enemy was helping both Jensen and forsaken out with lightning and giant snow balls. One even hit the archer in the the back as she went to take another shot at Jensen. She dodged a second as the hammer guy knocked one out of the park and blocked the next. The dagger weilder took one across the arm as he tried to stab jensen, then two more crashed down forcing him back. a lightning bolt hit down forcing away the hammer guy.

parrying arrows as the came, he slipped past the man with the hammer and cut upwards, the man dodged and the dagger wielder lunged in. Jensen slammed his shield forward into the man as an arrow hit his back with force. Jensen spun and launched a wave of energy from his blade. It was harmless but the archer didn't know that as she threw herself aside. Jensen turned and sidestepped a hammer downswing. His sword darted in and lanced across his foes arm, cutting the tendons on the right arm. Even as all this was happening

That evened the odds slightly because the damage didn't heal like the dagger weilders wound did. He was forced to use his weapon in one hand, though it didn't hinder the swings, it took some of the power out of his attacks. The dagger wielder attacked as all this happened and one blade pierced Jensen's armor, stabbing into his ribs an getting caught into the bone. An arrow pinged off his shoulder. Jensen's shield turned into a gauntlet and he grabbed the assassins arm. He swung him, first at the hammer weilder to throw off his next attack, then launched him at the archer. One of her black arrows loosed into her companion before he smashed into her.

Jensen formed a ball of energy on a chain from his gauntlet and charged forward, smashing hit into his opponants, causing an explosion as powerful as a cero oscuros to go off with a radius of 70 ft. If it caught riku or forsaken, they would be unharmed, but their opponants wouldn't be so lucky. The blast consumed the area, then there was momentary silence. He watched as his 3 opponants gathered.. The dagger wielder had managed to block but the archer looked half dead. The hammer wielder... Jensen couldn't see him, until a hammer burst out of thin air and slammed into his chest. sending him flying.

Forsaken felt alot of energy as she heard several kidou being called out. Though she didn't have the aptitude to use it herself she did know what most of it was supposed to do. Riku had created a smokescreen which only helped Forsaken due to the fact she didn't "see" already as it was. Giving her the chance to land a serious blow on the fire guy with her Zanpaktou just as something latched onto her and flung her at another hostile spiritual power. Which she reacted too by doing a flip in mid-air and slamming her blade down using the extra momentum to gain force while simultaneously releasing another wave of energy as large as her sword at the person she was flung at.

In a sudden spur of disorientation caused by her sensing abilities suddenly reconfiguring the battlefield in her head she slightly spazzed with her abilities to buy her time to readjust to a situation she had not put herself into. This caused multiple things that may or may not have helped her comrades.

First she created a black wall of gravity behind the hammer man that was 7 feet tall and 5 feet thick. The gravitation pull this wall caused would slow down any opponent by up to 50% if they remain within 20 feet of the wall in any direction. Second she released in all directions from her multiple reisu gravity balls which basically looked like a bunch of Bala being scatter shot from her body. Finally she spat another cero of gravity force at the person she had originally been flung at and then fired two more in the direction of the opponents she had just left behind.(Fire and Repulse)

Now that she had her bearings again she roared and tank rushed the girl swinging wildly, though accurately, with her large Zanpaktou. The swings themselves were pretty strong to begin with.. but now that Forsaken wasn't being bounced around she could build up momentum of greater magnitudes thanks to her toukai armor weighing her and only her at 9x it's normal.. She was the friggin juggernaut and this bitch was gonna get trampled!

The darkness guy couldn't get a sneak attack as he reacted to Foresaken, turning to block, only to be pushed down into an ice spike pit, killing him. The melee chick and fire and javelin guys dodged Jensen's massive attacks. Foresaken herself attacked multiple opponents before stopping the melee girl and went berserk on her. The melee girl was good...but there was no way she was going to last against a berserking, toukai leveled captain class fighter. And Riku only made that worse, when he made just enough ice at the right time at the right place to make Melee girl slip and create a huge opening for Forsaken to kill her.

By this time, Fire and Javelin guys were looking at each other questioningly. They weren't fighting like normal shinigami. They were fighting as a team...something practically unheard of in their time. This was their mistake. Riku threw his shield at the dagger man as he went after Jensen again, hitting him squarly in the throat and sending him flying. And a full fledged blizzard struck. Wind and snow picked up, his baseball sized snowflakes becoming much more common. Visibility dropped to ten feet maximum, anything greater being shadow. It also slowed any others that couldn't stand the cold down up to 60%, which unfortunately didn't mean fire guy was effected as he simply kept a flame near him as the temperature went to negative 25 degrees F. But the others should be...unfortunately, that also meant his allies unless they too could handle the cold. Riku was completely uneffected as his snow acted as sensors for him.

But that wasn't all. He summoned his two ice golems and his lightning hawk. His two golems were each 2-2, and the hawk was 2-1. Childs play if they were known, but in a blizzard where one can barely see anything, very much obstacles. Nothing the big dogs can't handle...just annoying as hell. And those were enhanced with lightning bubbles, tripling their durability and power. Add in a good number of ice spikey balls, and his various applications of his Lightning bubbles, mostly directed at fire guy, he was pulling out all the stops to get Foresaken and Jensen out of here.

Riku tugged Foresaken, even attempt to man handle her if she resisted, and did the same to Jensen, and either throw or shove them into the Senkaimon. And closing it before they could come back to bring him with them. Using so much energy all at once exausted him...but he still stood. The blond powered down and used Kyokko to bend light and become invisible. He moved stealthly around the big dogs and back to camp. Despite his injuries.

When he got back..."Pack up. Destroy anything we can't carry with us. We have mere minutes people! Collapse the tunnels, everything! We're relocating! Send the word out to the other camps!" There was no way they were going to stand still after this. It was time to move again...and once again become hidden...

Jensen fell on his back and Dagger guy lunged, but Riku's attacks got in his wait. Hammer guy went to slam his hammer down on Jensen, however Jensen's foot lanced out and caught him hard in the nuts. Jensen rolled aside and got to his feet, then turned and kicked his bent over enemy in the face, hard, which sent him keeling back wards. He got back up but had trouble moving thanks to Forsakens gravity wall.

Jensen turned back to dagger guy and met him blow for blow. He noticed the archer moving around. She took aim and fired, and Jensen raised his shield to block. The arrow hit his shield and exploded with a tremendous amount of force, sending Jensen flying. He crashed into the ground and rolled to a stop. Moments later she came at him again. Jensen was on his feet faster than she expected. Shunpo closed the distance and her head parted from her body with a look of shock.

Jensen was feeling that last blow. Shield or no, that blast had shook his bones. They were winning but they couldn't survive. As riku made it snow and summons monsters to help, he tried to make forsaken leave. If she didn't, Jensen would order it. "Fall back Forsaken, we've done enough!" He said. He wouldn't leave until she was through the gate though.

He fell back to the gate and waited for her to go. He activated nova move and powerful golden energy swirled around Jensen. He used the cero strong energy blades to keep his enemies at bay, and when forsaken was through, he waved to Riku and dived through the gate himself.

Forsaken was hurled through the Senkaimon by Riku but not before someone got an attack through her stomach and caused her to lose consciousness. She wasn't in any immediate oh my god danger thanks to her armor and her regeneration ability within Toukai but she still lost consciousness. Right before she did lose consciousness she thought she saw...Aizen? She wasn't sure.. it couldn't have been him though. His power wasn't even felt getting closer the entire time the three had been fighting. Maybe she was hallucinating because of her new wound.. ..She couldn't tell anymore..she was just..so tired..

wham she hit the ground in the world of the living with a big thud and was out cold for the day.

(Shitty post..I know..I know.. but..eh.. just..not feeling it today.)
