The unusual interest (Ana)

[ulquiorra]

Ulquiorra had reported into Aizen of what his news was and he seemed to of taken to the idea. Ulquiorra walked out of Aizen's throne room pleased with himself. But now something else was bothering him, that bothersome alarm, it didnt go off for nothing there was something he wanted to check out, it was playing on his mind. He had crossed paths with Keyori on the way to the alarming room. Keyori had been ordered to take Ana to the Hyogokyu room providing that there was extra security at the doors.

Keyori skipped towards Ana still laughing and giggling, she looked at most 13 maybe 14 years old, she seemed like a playfull teenager girl who was quite giggly. She looked at Ana and pouted ''Whats' with the mean look Ana-chan....i said we are having fun...that means ill get you out of this room...'' she said twiddling her hair and she smiled. ''If you follow me and keep quiet....ill let you in on a secret...'' she said. She tapped Ana on the nose lightly ''Smile Ana-chan! im not going to hurt you...im not an espada so im not like Ulquiorra...'' she giggled. But she realized that her words of telling a secret might not be as convincing. She leaned in towards Ana's shoulder to speak quietly in her ear. ''Dont react Ana....there watching...the espada...they can see everything in this room....but i have a way of getting you out of this room...'' she began. Keyori was a brilliant illusionist which will make the cover up she needs to get Ana unseen. ''But this secret...its something Ulquiorra told me not to speak of...its his worst nightmare...but he says that there is someone or something out there....they've come for you...'' she whispered and then leaned out and smiled at Ana and giggled. ''Why wont you smile Ana-chan...its such a good day...'' she said.

By this time Ulquiorra had arrived at the alarming room and sector that controls surveillance. He stopped allowing silence to erupt the hugly tall corridors. Ulquiorra thought about this before he walked in. Whatever the problem or reason for that uncalled for alarm it would be explained behind that door. Ulquiorra procceded forwards allowing the door to swing back from his hand and peering inside seeing the room was full of darkness. He stood still flicking his eyes all around the room looking for signs of movements, where were the arrancars in charge of this place?

(Ichigo and the others should post here soon i think)

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana watched the girl, she was so young, was she suppose to be so young, gosh these people, things were so cruel she was only a child! Ana took one step back trying to keep some distance between her and the girl. And then she’d gone and called Ana, Ana-Chan. Her body suddenly when stiff, her muscles tightened, who did she think she was calling her that. Ana only ever let a few people call her Ana-Chan and this child was not one of them, though the child before her was probably older than Ana was, which was freaky in a creepy way. Ana turned her head to the side a little. For some reason she felt like a small child and being called Ana-Chan by a stranger did not help, it made her feel like she was being looked down on, like she was being seen as a cute little girl.

Ana’s eyes looked back to the girl, she was going to get Ana out of here? Oh right, she had to be turned into one of them. No way in hell! Though she did want to get out of this white room it was making her a little dizzy, how did Ulquiorra just stay in a room so pale and deathly cold. She could go with the kid and figure out some way of getting out later, I mean weren’t they suppose do some stuff on Ana first before turning her, hah if they even could, she was going to be a huge pain, because she could and she liked being a pain and anything that would cause Ulquiorra trouble she was in.

Ana looked at the little girl confused someone was here for her, ok what kind of stupid game was this. No one would be here for her because no one knew she was here and the people who did know she was were dead so she was not falling for that. Even though Ana’s heart desired to believe someone had come for her she just couldn’t, it would give too much hope if she believed it. She just kept her same face on not smiling for the girl. Then she suddenly recalled the girl said she was not an arrancar not like Ulquiorra, what did she mean by that?

“You’re Keyori… right?” Ana asked and then glanced around, man these people had been watching her, what sick weird twisted people, then again they probably didn’t want her to escape and cause them more trouble. Then again, someone was here for her, who in their right mind would… but her thoughts stopped and her eyes suddenly widened it was impossible, the only person she could think of who was stupid enough to come after her was Ichigo, but he was dead, now she was angry again.

Ana blinked and looked to Keyori and smiled a little “You are right Keyori-Chan… I should smile for you, you are being so nice to me and telling me so many things and I am just being rude… how about we go have some fun.” She said, Ana was actually smiling her normal nice polite smile to Keyori, her voice was her gentle normal voice, Ana was just hoping she was doing the right thing, by saying she’d go willingly she would make it even more difficult for herself to get away, though it might end up being easier than she thought. She could not form a portal because she had so much on her mind and she was not sure what Keyori was capable of so she wasn’t about to even go make a fight with her until she was sure she could at least get away, and that would have to wait until they were out of the room so Ana was in the hallways to try find the ‘exit door’.

[ulquiorra]

Keyori smiled happily ''I want to help you Ana-Chan! im not very respected round here...becasue im so young..compared to the others who are hundreads of years old...'' shec said. ''But i know that someone's come to save you! and i know Ulquiorra hates the idea of you getting some hope back...so im giving you some back...what im saying is...dont ever think someone isnt coming for you...youve got friends right?...and if they were a good friend they wouldnt leave you behind...i wish someone would save me from this place...'' she said and smiled. But she nodded once Ana recognized her name. ''Thats right!! im Keyori-Chan!! we can have so much fun Ana-chan!! hehe'' she giggled. ''I need to take you to the Hygoku room though...notto change you into one of us...because i'd hate that...but because they are watching their expecting me to escort you there...Nayomi, Baiko and Ikume should be there, they are the ones who will do it...but here's my plan!'' she said. ''Im an illusionist you see....once you step forwards in front of Hyogoku they will begin changing you...but thats where my tricks will come in...i can make things appear differently, or they move to a different place...i can mess the three of them around, and the Hygoku room is on a balcony...so that will give us the chance to jump off from it and land on the building just underneath it and then out into the dessert....thats where you can make portals best'' she said.

Once she see Ana smile, she smiled wisly back ''Yay!! thats the spirit Ana-chan!! Ulquiorra hates it if your happy at these times...he wants you to be sad and miserable...thats why he hates me...because im always smiling...'' she said. Keyori then pointed her fingers to her eyes ''Keey your eyes open for any arrancar we may cross...act sad because im meant to be taking you to become an arrancar kay?'' she said and then nodded at her words before she turned on her heels and then walked forwards towards the door and opened it peering out and looking left and right, she waved Ana to join her and then walked out from behind the door and then went down the corridor.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana thought to herself, she wanted to know how old Keyori actually was, if she was like 78 or in her 30’s or even younger than that. She smirked a little, Ulquiorra seemed like he wanted to crush Ana’s spirit so badly keeping something like her friends coming to get her was something he’d do. Though Ana was all up for disappointing Ulquiorra and if she could tip him over his safe secure scale she was going to do it. She was not liking Keyori right now as she was making sense, friends coming for her, she would have done the same thing, come for any of her friends, man sometimes she hated the way humans acted, always wanting to save others, always having to put others first, it bugged her from time to time.

She whispered the names Keyori said “Nayomi, Baiko and Ikume” more so she would remember them, her face frowning more and more as she said their names, she didn’t like them, she didn’t know why she just didn’t. Ana’s head quickly snapped to Keyori, she was a what! Ana had no idea what that meant exactly, she got the fact the girl could do some weird thing involving Illusions but she didn’t really get it, so she had to put her faith and her life in some one else’s hands, someone she didn’t know and someone she was not sure she trusted. Her eyes widened even more when she was told she’d or they would jump off the balcony and onto the next building.
“Are you crazy!” she said “Jump off a balcony… I…” she frowned and then blinked a few times before mumbling to herself “Well wouldn’t be the most stupid thing you’ve ever done.” She quickly looked to Keyori again how did the girl know Ana could form portals “How did you know that?” she asked a little shocked, then again Ulquiorra might have been opening his big mouth ‘oh I caught the best human, she can do all these pathetic things but on an interesting note form these portals I think you will find her rather amusing’ or something like that she was not sure how that guys mind worked and she didn’t want to know.

Ana frowned a little, she could do sad, though if she was going to make it seem like she was being forced to go with Keyori than she’d also be furious. She opened her mouth to say something but closed it again and sighed. She was so confused. She didn’t even nod she just looked over her shoulder, if she came across any arrancar she’d knock them out, that’s what she was thinking on doing, Ulquiorra just caused so much trouble and problems for everyone and everything.
Ana watched Keyori she hesitated and the followed, she folded her arms holding herself tightly, like she would have done and kept her eyes down, her face was showing a mix of sadness and confusion but also anger, she was good at mixing her emotional image. She followed Keyori quietly thinking everything over, why Ulquiorra hated the girl, why he was so interested in Ana’s behaviour or what ever it was he was interested in her for, why Keyori said Ana’s friends had come for her and she was trying to picture how to get out of the dangerous situation she was about to get herself into.

[ulquiorra]

Keyori had looked a little confused at Ana's 'are you crazy' comment after suggesting to jump from the balcony. ''Crazy? if you had a choice to escape here from Ulquiorra you'd do it right?....i lost my arm trying to escape the Hygoku...when i was 11 i went through what you would be...i was transformed into an arrancar and went mad to try and escaped but i lost my arm so they could stop me...when i became an arrancar my arm instantly regenrated...i dislike Ulquiorra...but he thinks im a stupid silly child who doesnt have the guts to disobey him...well his wrong...he's wrong! ill show him...'' she said but suddenly stopped and smiled ''Sorry...it..gets to me when i think about it...'' she laughed.

Once she was out of the corridor and walking along it, she glanced to Ana seeing her hugging her body. She reembered being that scared when she was in Ana's position. ''Dont worry Ana-chan...this person thats invaded Hueco Mundo better do something to let you know they are here...so it can be proof to you, so that you wont need to worry...'' she said but stopped as she bumped into something hard. ''Ooof...'' Keyori uttered as she hit into a huge arrancar who was in front of her. Keyori dusted herself down and straightened up. ''Mr Hikume-Kun! doing my job sir...escorting the interesting human that Ulquiorra has requested to be taken to the Hygokyo room..'' she said in a sudden formal voice. The arrancar towered the small child, looking rather intimidating. ''...Escortin you say?'' the male arrancar boomed. Keyori couldnt help but look to the floor. ''Yes...sir'' she replied. The arrancar leaned down quickly to Keyori's height he grabbed her by the wrist and yanked her little arm forwards towards him and inspected her arm. ''You still got those scars then...good...they'll remind you to respect your uppers...'' he cackled. Keyori's hair blew back from the arrancars' laugh. ''Please excuse us...we must hurry...Ulquiorra has asked for this to be carried out quickly before she is saved by the intruder...'' she said. ''I would hate for that to happen...'' she said just yo play into the act and hopefully fool the giant arrancar. But he didnt budge, ''Why should i when we still gotta fight it out to see who's the strongest..'' he said and laughed again. ''I cannot fight you when Ulquiorra has asked of me to do a job!'' she retorted back. She suddenly whipped out her small zanpakuto, it didnt look like much but it had something special, something she hadnt let the espada's know of. ''Confuse the, Caysehime!'' she commanded and her zanpakuto melted into a shiny liquid until the hild was left, the liquid grew and lifted up into a kind of platform that stood at eye level with the arrancar and it shot through the arrancar's temple in between his eyes not leaving a puncture hole but it seemed to fill into his mind. It erased his memories from the last 5 minutes, which gave Keyori the chance to grab Ana's hand and pull her forwards nad passed the now dazzled arrancar. ''Lets go now Ana-chan! while he's sudated!'' she said, and once her and Ana were clear of the arrancar's sight, he came to and then looked around scratching his head before giving a shrug as he continued to walk forwards not even remebering his encounter with Keyoro or Ana.

But this technique came at a high price and Keyori suddenly collapsed ''Ouch! it hurts!'' she cried and held her chest her breathing quickening. It had a terrible strain on her body after using it just the once. ''I dont think i should use that again'' she said and then took in some deep breaths which was working on her sudden shortness of breath. ''Ill be fine in a second....'' she said staggering up to her feet. ''Right...lets keep moving'' she said.

[Shoshi Ana]

((Sorry it is so short, I’m kind of out of it today))

Ana made a face to herself, really making a face at Keyori’s comments. She was right though, if Ana had a choice to escape she would take it, and she’d take it quickly so who was she kidding. As she listened she got to know Keyori a little more and frowned, Ulquiorra was a true bastard, these things ripping of a girls arm and then changing her, taking her life from her before giving back her arm again once she had been changed. Ana was going to punch Ulquiorra square in the face just for Keyori. She shook her head a little and smiled just a little “No that is ok… you can be as pissed off as you like about it.” She knew she would be.

Ana went back to her saddened expression and slumped her shoulders forward. She only looked up when she heard someone suddenly questioning Keyori. Her eyes looked up and she frowned, evil and blank expression, hatred and miserable emotions ran in her eyes. She watched him and then watched what Keyori did, her little magic trick, Ana blinked a few times, standing straighter face puzzled and well, who knew what else. She looked at the guy and then to Keyori as she moved on telling Ana to follow, Ana followed of course, she wasn’t sure why she just did, maybe she thought he might get up and go all grr on their asses. She looked ahead though couldn’t help but look backwards, that was a very nice trick indeed. Though her attention was drawn to the front again when Keyori collapsed in pain. Ana took a few steps forward and went to bend down to help Keyori if someone came by she could always make it seem like she had been the one to inflict the pain Keyori was feeling, cover what was really going on. Luckily no one passed and she saw Keyori get up again.

She watched Keyori move ahead again, ok she was a weird little one, giggly and smiley, angry and serious, straight forward and yet ready to kick butt. “How about the next one I blow up?” she mumbled quietly under her breath to Keyori and smiled a little “I am really good at that sort of thing,” she couldn’t help but beam though quickly realised she was and then frowned pouting her lip for a moment before going into neutral mode. Man how much more did they have to walk!

[ulquiorra]

((No problemo!))

Keyori staggered some more before she finally rested agasint a wall breathing deeply ''Sorry about this Ana-chan....'' she said in between breaths. ''It was an emergency...i cant let something bad happen to me or you...so i took a risk i supose'' she said and smiled. She finally leaned off the wall and paced forwards. She smiled at Ana's comment saying how she would take dowm the next pain in the butt that came along. ''You welcome to do so.... before Ulquiorra realizes you are gone then he will place a limiter on you and probably kill me...so lets get to the Hygokyu room and fast'' she said and quickened her pace, the sudden movement of something shadowy caught her eyes. ''Ana-chan'' she whispered ''Can you get rid of that one over there?'' she carried on whispering, but suddenly she felt someone touched her shoulder from behind and another walked out from the shadows and appeared behind Ana. The pair were twins, female arrancar twins. One of the twins circled round Keyori. ''Well well well...if it isnt little tincy wincy Keyori-Chan...'' one said in a frightening tone. Keyori kept her head down. ''Im doing a job for Ulquiorra! you cant stop me'' Keyori spoke up. The two girls laughed childishly. The one behind Ana walked round to the side of her. ''Is this that human girl the one thats gonnna become one of us...how exciting'' she said. ''Dont harm Ana...i mean the human....she must stay alive until she becomes an arrancar...those were strict orders from Ulquiorra!'' Keyori snapped. One of the girl grabbed Keyori by the chin ''Be quiet! i dont care who ordered you to do whatever...we've got orders ourselves but we dont care! go tell someone who cares!'' laughed the girl as she shoved Keyori back a little. ''Then you two shouldnt be here! you should be gone!'' Keyori snapped again only to recieve a whack round the face from the girl. ''Key...ori chaaan....i thought i told you to be quiet...'' she said looking at her nails and blowing on them lightly. ''You chipped my nails for that'' she said and grinned cheekily. The other girl gave Ana an shove ''So your that human girl...facinating...she even looks similar to us...excpet she doesnt have a hollow hole...or a hollow mask...but you will do soon enough'' she laughed. ''We can punch you a hole in the chest now if you like'' the other said turning her stretched out fingers into a fist. ''Keyori was holding her now bleeding and brusied cheek ''Owch...thats hurt Keyori-Chan...im not cut out for fighting i dont think...'' she whined to herself she moved her hand from her cheek and black brusing was appearing, she looked over to the twins now surrounding Ana. ''Leave her!'' Keyori cried.
One of the twins sighed and turned round she skipped over to Keyori and drew her zanpakuto ''I guesss i should get rid of you now then? and your little friend Ana-Chan...'' she said as the other twin by Ana stood in an attack position. ''I can just get rid of you without even using my zanpakuto'' the girl told Ana with a smirk.

Keyori stood there looking at the twin in front of her ''I todl you no fighting is allowed when were on jobs! your job must be important if Uulquiorra sent you two!'' she said. The twin frowned ''Of course its important'' she began and then spun herself on the spot catching Keyori in her side with her zanpakuto. She stopped and stood still before making an overhead slam to Keyori who blocked just in time. ''Ulquiorra-Sama asked us to check out the corridors....the intruders are around here somewhere...cant you sense their spiritual energy....the one with the explosive spritual pressure if mine! im gonna take 'em down myself and Ulquiorra will be pleased with me! and kill you'' she cackled.

The other twin used something very similar to flash steps, Sonido, it was similar to a shinigami's flash step with the same speed that could move you from place to place in the blink of an eye, but Sonido was distinctive from flash steps but the sounds they made, flash steps sounded like something whizzing by you, it just sounded fast, but sonido had a kind of eltric sound to it like the sound of static energy, that noise of sonido echoed through the corridors as the twin disappeared from Ana's sight. ''Im over here Ana-chan!!'' she giggled before sending a fast fist at Ana.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana didn’t smile because she got a loud buzz in her ear before she saw two knew comers. She didn’t need special powers to tell these two were trouble. She frowned a little seeing how they treated Keyori, though she also kept her head down and took one step backwards. She couldn’t do anything but watch. That was until both the girls surrounded Ana, personal space!!! She glanced to them, man she wanted to knock them flat, these people were so sure of themselves, reminded her of herself most of the time.
Ana looked up when one said to kill them both. Ana looked to the one beside her as she told Ana she could kill her without her zanpakuto. One of Ana’s eyebrows raised and she smirked a little “Like to see you try…” she mumbled.

Ana couldn’t help but laugh at the girls ‘explosive spiritual energy’ comment though she quickly stopped and just looked down smiling to herself a little. Oh yea she’d like to see her try that, Ana found it rather amusing in fact.

Ana heard the girl suddenly call her name out, Ana-chan, there it was again, that term used again and again, ok so she could live with Keyori saying it but this stupid mean horrible arrancar no way! She shouldn’t have turned her head, she knew she was probably going to get into trouble but even with Ana’s martial arts and her reflexes she did not have the time to stop or even dodge the fist coming right for her as she was suddenly send towards the ground from the force and speed. She turned her body a little landing on her hands and frowned from being hit though tears of pain swelled in her eyes. She did not hesitate though her foot quickly went right for the girl’s knee as Ana spun around before she jumped up. She was already tapping into her spiritual energy, though it was easy for her to use what she always used she was digging deeper, looking deeper inside herself, unlocking the box that was always locked. Her body glowing a little as she kept tapping into it, it only seemed to take a few blinks of the eye as her hands did something strange very quickly and then she sent out a fast moving wave of energy. It was like a normal shield, a sphere almost that only went out towards the one before her picking up speed and dust from the ground, even the sound of the wind howled as it moved.

Ana took a defensive stance, she felt like she needed to unlock her jaw or something it stung and she knew she’d have a red mark on her face though her eyes quickly looked over to the other chick. She was just so angry that these ‘people’ treated Keyori with such disrespect and that they were now going after Ana, it really got to her. Ana simply focused on the girl for a moment then as if she had a wire strapped to the girl she waved her hand aside pulling that invisible string to send the girl into the wall rather hard, it was something Ana hardly ever used because she did not have great control over it, and she knew why, because she was too afraid of that power.

Her eyes quickly looked back to her own problem. Ana smirked a little and then as if random mines were going off in a battle field shields randomly appeared near her enemy exploding getting closer and closer each time. “Turn around now… before I really do kill you.” She said. Sometimes Ana worried about herself, she would be such a great evil person, it did not bother her if she killed the enemy, at least not this ‘race’ of enemy like Hollow, she did not care, if they were a little more human, in appearance and attitude then maybe she would care, but she just didn’t.

Ana was hoping if she could tap into enough spiritual energy she might be able to send waves towards whoever were here for her, give away her position, though that might draw the wrong kind of attention. She quickly formed a thick shield around herself and glanced to Keyori “Run” she said, Ana didn’t know if she could handle these two weirdos but she could try.

[ulquiorra]

(so sorry really long post!)

Keyori see Ana had been hit by the twin ''DAMN YOU!!! Ulquiorra is going to be really mad with you!! Aizen will kill you btoh for this'' she yelled.
The twin looked at Keyori her brows furrowed ''So what'' she pouted ''Who cares...as long as were getting a kick out of it'' she laughed and then grinned at Ana seeing the hit she had made ''I hope it hurts too...then everyone can see that your just an ordinary human'' she said but suddenly to her unexpectations Ana had sent her foot at her knee, it whammed into her knees causing a her to almsot topple backwards. ''Ow...that was mean Ana-chan!'' she said pouting. But Ana was still not backing down she had gotten up and was now ready to make another attack. ''Well someone's got fighting spirit...you'll need that round here because everyone is a monster...we are not like boring hollows who lack so much power! were stronger than anyone could imagine...were just toying with you Ana-chan...'' she giggled.
But as the tein was talking she only just caught onto the fact that Ana was sending a nasty looking shield at her, it flew at her quick it was almost like another version and speed matching of a cero. ''Is that a cero?'' she laughed but then spun herself on the spot swinging her leg out and gave the shield a high kick and kept her foot there as Ana's shield whammed onto the base of her foot and it carried on going passed either side of her creating a gap in the middle where her foot alone was holding it back. The shield carried on past either side of her and was now heading for the other twin over by Keyori. She glanced over her shoulder seeing it and tried to dodge but it wasnt enough and it caught her in her side blood showered along the cold stone floors as the twin panted holding her injury. ''Tear her head off and feeed it to the hollows sis!!'' she yelled.

Keyori smirked at this, ''Ana-Chan's great...'' she thought but then got to her feet and took the opportunity to strike the twin she was fighting but she had caught the blade easily. ''Uhhah?'' Keyori stuttered but then noticed Ana's calling to her to run. Keyori shook her head violently ''No! i must stay with you...i still have a job remeber....'' she said.
''I was made an arrancar so that i would not fear death...we cannot fear anything...'' she said.
But the twin fighting Ana had realised she had done some kind of trick on her sister, she looked over to her and then yelled and made some noise to get her attention but it was too late, the twin was suddenly yanked on her front and then crashed into the wall crumbling some of the wall away, she hit the floor and didnt move from there. The other girl was fuming she yelled in rage and anger like a battle cry. ''YOOOOUUU!!!'' she yelled again racing at Ana ''Split Hozume!!'' she yelled and she released her zanpakuto, but this wasnt like any other release. Keyori sat there watching ''Ana...'' she began looking a little worridly. ''Ana! listen to me! do you know about shinigami releasing their zanpakuto...into shikai...and then bankai...it makes them stronger...well arrancar have the same only there not called bankai...its a resurection form...we go back to our hollow forms...'' she said as she stood up. ''Ana....watch your step...an arrancar's ressurection is dangerous...hybrids like us are feared for a reason...ive never once released my ressurection...and i never want to'' she said her own zanpakuto at hand she used a quick sonido to appear in front of Ana. ''And ive never fought agasint one before...but ive seen them...'' she said. ''We need a plan...a brilliant stratagy if we are going to beat her..'' she said.
The arrancar's sword split up into three blades and a large white hollow mask spread across her shoulders and up to her face, she seemed to be in pain as her human looking body tranformed and she was bigger in size and width. She grew 8 legs ,much like a spider only they were made from bone, she scurried forwards and then leaped at Keyori and from each of the 8 legs blades spread out and she sent all 8 of them crashing into Keyori, one stabbed through he shoulder, another in her arm she pulled her waist in and back to avoid getting a fatal injury and then recived another blade into her thigh another scraped the surface of the fleshy part of her collar bone. Keyori flopped to her knees bleeding from all kinds of areas on her body. But Keyroi stood up again as if saying 'ok im ready for another round'
''Ana...dont worry about me...all these injuries...there nothing...not as half as bad as they look...arrancars's have tougher skin...i can take it...i swear...'' she said but then see the released arrancar now yelling and bringing all her legs inwards together and from it a bright red ball of energy formed. Keyori's eyes widened ''Cero!'' she immediatly shrieked and ran to the side dragging Ana with her, the cero fired off and blasted through the building teaing down the walls and making a large hole the building tremoured and some debris crumbled down. ''Are you alright?'' Keyori asked Ana but suddenly seeing another cero being blasted their way, but instead of it hitting or her dodging and trying to move Ana she stayed where she was, because beside her almsot in slow motion for Keyori a white cape flashed beside her and she knew, she knew exsactly who it was.
The cero hit something and it just fizzled out like a ballon did when you let the air go, as if it was nothing, a cero had a mass of destructive power it could destroy a hundread buildings even if it wasnt on a direct hit, so who? who could fizzle something like that out with a zanpakuto.
Ulquiorra stood in front of them, the red beam of light glowing round the edges of him it lit up the corridor making a beautiful red glow. But it wasnt Ulquiorra's blade that stopped the cero, it was his bare hand, not two hand just the one hand pushed out in front of him.
''Ulquiorra!...'' Keyori said. ''I am not saving you....or rescuing you or watching out for you...because that is not what i am for...i am simply preventing the human girl from death...Aizen gave us the order of not killing her, how is she to become an arrancar if she isnt even alive'' he said. Keyori nodded ''O...kay....i wont thank you...'' she said and then stood up. She was thinking on helping Ana up but she remebered Ulquiorra had no idea of her plans to help Ana, so she'd act!
''Get up girl!!! now!'' Keyori snapped at Ana but gave her a small smile with her back to Ulquiorra to reassure her it was an act. ''If you dont get up i will pull you up by your arms even if you cannot stand!'' she snapped again. Ulquiorra watched her and then sighed. ''I see...so the twins attacked you when you were escorting the woman to the Hygokyu...well then its perfect timing...i shall go along too...i cannot miss this big event'' he said. Keyori paused and then nodded quick so he wouldnt think somethign was up. ''Of course...'' she said.
''Hurry it up then...if we prospone it any longer then i will drag her there'' Ulquiorra said and then grabbed Ana by her wrist and forcefully pulled her to her feet and shoved her forwards, not giving a dam about if he was hurting her or being disrespectful.
''Get moving girl!'' he said and then gave her another shove round a corner. ''You were practically right here....'' he said and then stood in front of some massivly tall doors. he gave them a push and inside was the three guards that Keyori had mentioned about, and there in the center was the twinkling Hygokyu, it looked like a gem, so pretty yet its effects were deadly. He pointed his fonger downwards at Ana's wrist and more towards the base of her back, it looked like her would fire a cero through her but it was something else, a binding incantation. Suddenly Ana's wrists would snap together at her back as if invisible chains or string were holding them there. ''Dont want you to struggle...or you'd lose your...'' he began and then directed hias last word as Keyori. ''Arm'' he teased her knowing of how she lost her arm by struggling to get away from the hygokyu.

The three guards walked towards Ana surrounding her they each closed in on her and Ulquiorra gave her a nudge forwards. One of the guards a female Nayomi walked to the hygokyu resting on a waist high pillar, she gripped the little gem by both hands and walked towards Ana. ''It eont hurt...i promise'' she smiled.

[Shoshi Ana]

((Sorry it took me forever to post… and it’s not as long as yours which was huge! Hehe))

Ana could already feel her jaw bruising. It was going to hurt, she was holding back tears of pain, the girl was strong and Ana had to try not underestimate her but she’d spent so much time around Ichigo she had learnt to underestimate her opponent but that was ok, she could still win, she was still her and she’d sent her foot into the girls knee. When the girl called her Ana-Chan Ana frowned “SHUT UP!” she snapped echoing down the corridor. She did her little tricks and her rage helped her build it up even more. She hated these people and she wanted to rip them apart so they could never ever again hurt anyone or thing.

Ana was not so surprised when the girl stopped her shield from hitting her, or well part of it, the high kick didn’t do much but it did wind Ana little, luckily it kept going and soon knocked the other twin over, good at last one was down or hurt. She’d called to Keyori to run but the little girl wouldn’t she just stood there. Ana looked to the girls, they should be afraid, even Keyori should be afraid of death, Ana would make them afraid, one way or another Ana would make them suffer she’d find away and for the twin it was her twin, that was the weakness and so she’d sent her flying backwards smirking a little.

Ana listened to Keyori, yea she knew all of that. She had formed a shield around herself again and taken some steps backwards. And yea Ana had a plan rip the girls head off throw a few shields send her flying a few times then somehow rip her head off or better yet make it explode, gosh she was evil. Luckily though Keyori suddenly jumped in front of her and then the girl changed and Ana was left stumped, gosh was that really really ugly. Ana was then suddenly dragged along by Keyori as a Cero missed them no thanks to another one.

Then she head it Ulquiorra, that horrid name. She was glad to see him but also not so much. “The human girl has a name.” Ana said to him though knew he wouldn’t answer and knew she should keep her mouth shut, but this was Ana. Ana looked to Keyori when she demanded her to get up, not even she knew why she was doing it but still if Keyori was acting Ana had too also, and so she stayed moving a little.

Ana’s frown grew, great Ulquiorra was going to tag along, that was so not good then she was forced to her feet “HEY!” she yelled at him taking a swing at him though missed, she didn’t actually want to hit him but seriously personal space. She started to walk and folded her arms, she was going to cain in a few minutes her entire body was sore, but she’d last. She was still healing from the wounds from before. That brought back horrid memories, Ichigo and Miko, both dead. “I am moving you twit!” she snapped at Ulquiorra rolling her eyes.

Ana looked at the doors before she stopped she looked to Ulquiorra wondering what he was doing or going to do she moved her body a little away from him, man she was so screwed not even Keyori could help her now. She felt a tug at her hands and looked down frowning trying to move her hands away before they suddenly stuck behind her back, her eyes widened a little. She was moved into the room and then stopped, he said not to struggle but as if Ana wouldn’t she was already trying to move her wrists a little trying to break whatever was on her.

She looked to the guys around her and formed a shield around herself still trying to get her wrists apart. She looked up to the girl “Back Off!” she snapped at her forming her shield a little bigger sending out a wave of energy which was followed by a fast moving shield going in all directions, another shield quickly replacing itself around Ana for protection “Come near me and I’ll blow you to bits!” she didn’t need her hands to do that, just her eyes and she glanced to Ulquiorra her eyes narrowed for a moment before she hopefully sent him backwards along with another member and she knew she shouldn’t but she sent one out some energy towards Keyori to send her flying backwards a little. No way was this going to happen, not now, she was going to go down in a fight, a very bog one.
