A Little Peace, pt 2

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana’s eyes widened seeing how little her attack had done, he showed nothing he just kept coming at her like nothing had happened, what the hell was he! She glanced to Ichigo, he seemed to be doing ok but her eyes quickly drew to her own enemy as she ran at him. She didn’t know what she was going to do, she had no idea what attack she’d use, if her shield had so little affect then it’s unlikely her physical attacks would either.

While she could see some blood which was a good sign that these guys could bleed but they showed so little, no pain, no sympathy, they just wanted to fight it seemed. Mindless beasts. With his fist coming at her Ana frowned and stopped letting her feet slide to a halt as she flew her hands up into the air and turned her body backwards forming a U shape noticing the first just miss her face before she spotted another coming at her, all she saw where the feet running upside down as the blood started to rush to her head.

Ana took in a deep breath and applied pressure on her hands flipping herself into a headstand as one foot came up and then the other to kick the guy who’d gone to punch her in the face, she didn’t know if her foot would do anything as it collided with his chin before the other came up and she pushed off her hands as she twisted and landed on her feet kneeling down before standing up and jumped up twisting her body around as she went to kick the other one in the face. She hadn’t even noticed someone coming up behind Ichigo, if she had she would have warned him.

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Ichigo pinned the guy in front of him to the wall before he heard the sounds of running footsteps approch from behind him he turned keeping at the low level he was and pushed Zangetsu forward and into the guy's stomatch who had tried to attack from behind his blade piereced the guy but he made no effort to feel the pain he kept a straight face as Ichigo looked on confused. His scowl quickly returned before Ichigo kicked him down and off Zangetsu before he looked to his right seeing another rushing in for an attack he kept on the spot before he simply flash stepped from the guy's path and reappeared behind him making an uppercut towards his back while another guy got furious seeing the sight of it.

''You!!'' the guy yelled as he stormed over to Ichigo as he clentched up his fists as reaitsu swirled around them. Ichigo tilted his head to one side as he spotted the reaitsu yeah if he got hit by that it could be damaging. So he focused and refrained from talking that only hindered his concentration and these guys were pissing him off words werent going to sort them out actions were.

Ichigo stayed on the spot as the guy came charging at him his fist swinging all over the place to try and land a hit on Ichigo but he dodged with a few slight movements not using up his energy to avoid this guy's angered attacks before Ichigo backed off a little before he twisted his body one side to avoid a punch before Ichigo had enough of dodging and reached up seizing the guy by his forarm in mid punch before he sliced upwards taking the guy's arm off from the forarm down. There that was one less punch he had to dodge. The guy widened his eyes but no scream no cry of pain nothing Ichigo began to look at this guy like he was crazy did he feel nothing? Ichigo shook his head in disbeleif of this guy.

The guy swinging for Ana had missed by her quick reaction time to avoid it before the other guy came in to attack her from the left before she had made a manourve to kick the guy straight back before the other guy's chin was caught by her foot he staggered back but he smirked as he wiped some blood from his chin and glared evily at Ana before he laughed a little and then his expression changed to an angered one as he launched himself at Ana raising both his arms and appearing above her using his freefall to propell him into a forcefull attack as the other guy grabbed Ana's arm like he was trying to hold her there for the other guy to get a direct hit.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana watched as the guy whipped his blood from his face and the other went back a little, well they certainly didn’t let their injuries take them down at all, they just kept coming. She had never seen anything like this before so it had her concerned. Maybe these people knew who took the old man? Maybe they knew who did, maybe they had no idea but then again what were they doing here and what were they, she had nothing going for here, nothing to lead her into some form of direction to tell her what they were.

As the guy lunged at her she huffed and went to move however the other one grabbed her and held her. She struggled against him seeing the other one coming down fast. She could try dislocating her shoulder to escape but she had to think fast she didn’t have time to think of something smart, the wrong move could result in her arm being broken. Not assuming she could escape the grasp she forced her leg onto the guys behind her to push it to the side before she leaned forwards a little, the strain on her arm taking in but she had to push through that slight pain before she forced herself to go under him, between his legs letting her feet slide backwards and turned her body a little her arm with it to flip the guy so he’d take the attack, so the plan was which would mean he’s let her hand go.

Her body hit the ground before she scrambled to her feet and moved her arm around, if these guys kept it up though she wouldn’t be able to keep pushing her body, they could easily take her out and she knew that, she needed to use her brain to outdo them here. She wasn’t even sure these guys used their brains and was certain they only went off the impulse to fight and kill. Ana held her hands up to her forming both into fists cringing at the slight pain; she knew her arm and shoulder would start hurting soon enough. “What are you?” she asked frowning at them both, if she could keep them both before her, in her eye sight she just might have a chance winning here.

"How you doing Ichigo?" she called out keeping her eyes on her enemies, she hoped he was doing ok, she hadn't heard him cry out in pain which was a good sign right.

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

The two of the guts attacking Ana were sure they'd get a hit on her and that was all until she had moved the guy's leg to enable her to go under him he frowned and then looked up seeing the other guy fast approching him he frowned and then reached up and grabbed his own man by the arm and threw him into a wall. ''Dumb idiot'' he muttered after having just attacked on of his own team members. But the hit guy hit the wall and layed there for a moment before he slowly sat up but he refused to get after that.

The other guy looked at Ana ''Why you little bitch think your clever do you! ill kill you'' he began as he ran at her as he unsheathed his sword and went to swing it at her fast. he paused hearing her ask who they were before he grinned ''You mean you dont know...hahaha...'' he laughed. ''Your like one of those humans arent you...weak!!'' he underestimated Ana before he went in for another swing at her.

Ichigo watched the guy he had just severed an arm off from as he looked ath is bleeding limb before it only made him even more aggitated. Ichigo reamined calm as he had a tiny smirk watching the guy go mental about his arm yelling at him that he needed his arm and how he didnt know what he was going to do without it seeing as this guy's main attacks was with his reaitsu covered fists. Ichigo sighed what did he want him to do apologise!? ''Hey, its you or me buddy...and i'd rather it be you who loses you know'' Ichigo began. The guy glared at Ichigo before he raced at him still trying to hit him with the one fist he had left man Ichigo so wanted to take the other arm off but he wasnt doing much damage to Ichigo with 2 let alone 1 so Ichigo just continued to dodge until this guy made it too easy to kill him or another may well back him up but it seemed a few of them were injuried by now.

Ichigo could hear Ana ask how he was doing he leaned to his left escaping a punch ''Yeah...actually...doing pretty good thanks'' he said and he gathered Ana was ok too by the sounds of it but still it puzzled him that these guys felt no pain and they just didnt seem to die either Ichigo had to put this to the test to see if they could die. With that thought in mind Ichigo stopped his dodging and ran in to make a diagonal slash at the guy from top to bottom blood hitting the floor from the sudden attack. Ichigo then turned and saw the guy on his knees bleeding, but still not feeling the pain. ''Weird'' Ichigo muttered before he walked towards the guy standing in front of him he grabbed the guy by his collar pulling him to his feet ''What is it with you guys...why dont you feel the pain of an attack'' Ichigo demanded. Before Ichigo could get an answer a voice erupted it was loud deep and somewhat menacing it echoed and made everything silent.

It made Ichigo turn his head in the direction on the voice as he still gripped onto one of the guards the crowds of people seperated as a tall man walked through he seemed like a skinny looking guy but he had authority you could tell.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana frowned a little and here she was hoping to watch the guy crash into the other one… she’d have to try harder then as she raised her fists taking a stance. She might have been worried… hell she was shit worried but she wasn’t going to show that fear it meant letting them know they had gotten to her and that meant she would lose, she wasn’t ready for that and she was not going to die here of all places.

“Shut up!” Ana yelled at him though Ana moved backwards a little and raised her arm as the blade cut across it, she’d almost lost sight of him them but had just managed to avoid something serious though she cringed and grabbed her arm feeling the blood trickle down her and drip onto the floor before frowning at him. Man he was going to get his ass handed to him! She was not weak in the slightest, she’d prove that to him. Frowning she placed her hands out and ducked down just missing the blade though heard it swoosh over her head as it cut some of her hair. She swivelled on the spot moving one foot and raised the other sending it out to him forming a shield around her foot to kick him backwards and stood still for a moment.

He however had a sword, not fair but Ana was sure she could get it out of his hands, he’d cut her and she was not going to let him land another one on her if she had any say in it. She ran forwards and went to hit him several times hearing Ichigo was doing ok and smiled a little to herself, that was good news. She grabbed his shoulder or rather briefly touched it before pushing her weight onto it and flipped over him grabbing his arm forming a shield around it to try break his bones under the pressure, if he could drop the sword, she could grab it and cut his head off… or something like that but a voice suddenly echoed throughout the place and she looked up. She didn’t let go though, sure he could probably throw her without much effort but she applied more pressure to his arm and watched as a man approached them. Her eyes flickered to Ichigo to see what their next move was. Would they try take this man on. She could simply tell by the way people acted around him he had power.

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

The guy seemed pleased with himself when he had cut Ana he smirked before he had gone in for another attack he suddenly see her foot and sheild however and was kicked back he rolled a little before he slowly stood up his head bleeding but he was still smiling before he charged at Ana again seeing she was going to try and hit him he just sent swings her way after she had tried to hit him some had had contact but he was showing signs of stopping or slowing down infact! but before he knew it he was flipped over and a sheild formed around his arm he frowned ''What the heck are you doing!'' he demanded before he too was silenced by the sounds of a booming voice.

Ichigo looked at the guy with suspicion who the hell was this guy, it was clear he had a high reiatsu it even had traces of that huge energy they felt earlier, that was strange. Ichigo knew getting into a fight with this guy could prove a bad move. Ichigo dropped the guy who had had hold of and turned his body to face this new guy. ''Such stupid Espada's thinking they can defeat me'' the guy began it seemed he had just been in a fight too because he had some minor cuts and scratches but when Ichigo looked closer he could see he had hold of an arrancar who he quickly tossed aside like he was rubbish.

''So then...what have we here'' the guy said as he looked to his former the guy who had received a punch from Ana. ''214 Sir...217 if you include the 3 beings we picked up on the way'' he said. the guy frowned ''Beings? who might they be now'' he said the guy looked over to Ichigo and Ana ''Thats two of them there Sir'' he began. The guy turned his head to one side before he looked at the mess caused in here his men were laying around injured the top of the cave destroyed blood everything his eyes met with Ichigo and his narrowed them down before he noticed the guy on the floor practically dead. He glanced to Ana ''Are you two both responsible for this...'' he began. He looked angered before he looked to Ichigo ''I know who you are....'' he suddenly said as he paced towards Ichigo ''Well well...lookie here we have ourselfves some humans...'' he smirked ''Your that subsitute guy...and who is this'' he said looking to Ana. Ichigo scowled quickly should he get into a fight here, he didnt know but this guy's reaitsu was off the scale!

Ichigo looked around to the crowds seeing all th imprisioned Arrancar he still couldnt see Nel anywhere had these guys got her! or worse killed her! ''Im looking for Neliel'' Ichigo began the guy raised his eyebrows ''Thats why your here...for Nel..'' he grinned, ''Bastard'' Ichigo thought as he lifted Zangetsu. ''Are you willing to fight me for the answer the guy grinned. ''I hope you know what your up against'' he said before he reached out his hand and grabbed the nearest Arrancar by her head and after a small pause he suddenly crushed the Arrancar's skull with force of one hand as he looked at Ichigo the whole time. Ichigo widened his eyes before he breathed in trying to keep his cool which was difficult for him. The guy smirked seeing it was effecting Ichigo before he looked to Ana ''Nel's in cell number B347 if you can find it that is before i kill your orange haired friend'' he grinned.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana cringed as the blade sliced her again though she did her best to dodge his attacks, she was nothing special though, just a human, she didn’t have the speed required for this but she wasn’t giving up as she flipped him and applied pressure to his arm with her shield “Teaching you a lesson” she snapped at him applying more. Would he scream? Would he cry out, would he show any sign of pain or was he lacking in it in truth, how could someone though lack in such a thing. She had not seen this before and it did frighten her.

She watched the man, he didn’t seem like much but she could feel it coming off him, he was not to be underestimated, she knew that. A small smile flickered over her face when he looked at her, yea they did this… was he worried? Pissed off it seemed but two humans who had done this… said something about his men now didn’t it. Though when he said he knew who Ichigo was she gasped, dam it Ichigo making a reputation for himself, he was always asking for trouble! Ana smirked “Guess you’ll just have to wait to find out” she added, no way was she telling him anything any time too soon.

Ana’s eyes widened as she watched Ichigo and then back to the man, he’d just crushed that persons head in, another female, man what did these shits have against women! With a simple flick of her wrist she forced more pressure onto the man who’d hit her making him drop his sword before picking it up holding it in her hand. She flickered her eyes to Ichigo and then back to the man again. B347… ok she had to find that cell and quickly… though where was she supposed to start? “If he is dead by the time I get back you’ll regret ever making yourself known” Ana warned him and glanced to Ichigo “Will you be alright?” she asked him before she stepped on the guy she’d taken the sword from “Try anything stupid and I will kill you without a second thought” she whispered to him cutting his cheek a little, something for him to remember her by.

Without a second thought she ran down the hall hoping she was going the right way looking at the cells trying to find the right number, anything that would give her a clue as to where she was going, she had to find Nel and get back to Ichigo but if she heard him in trouble she would double back and find Nel after, but if she could find her before that it was one more person on their side. So if Nel was in a B cell what section was she in at the moment? “Nel!” she called out running down the hall trying to find her.

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

Ichigo couldnt hide his anger from his face who did this guy think he was! some hotshot he went round killing people to demonstrate his strength he could crush all the people he wanted he wasnt going to crush Ichigo thats for sure. Ichigo just stared him out not wanting to even speak to this guy but the more this evil person kept talking the more time it gave Ichigo to observe and prepare think out a stratagy and how he could defeat him.

''Your awfully quiet for a guy i was told has a temper...whats the matter that wasnt too much for you to watch was it now'' he grinned before he glanced to one of his men ''He's just a boy, look at him he cant even stand to watch violence let alone be a part of it...go home kid and take your friends with you'' the guy said to Ichigo, oh he was patronising thats for sure Ichigo just narrowed his eyes as he shook his head a little. Had this guy even observed Ichigo yet he claimed to know who he was yet seemed unaware of what he could do unless he did he wasnt sure.

The guy watched as Ana was punishing one of his men before she had run off immediatly with the cell number in mind and the threats he was making towards her friends. The other guards all chased Ana not wanting to make this eay for her and try and slow her down from finding Nel attacking her as she went.''Run run little girl quickly time isnt on your side'' the guy said. ''Shut up!!!'' Ichigo suddenly erupted loudly causing the guy to looked back at Ichigo. ''Just shut up!!'' Ichigo said again just as the guy had gone to open his mouth. Ichigo looked to Ana when she asked if he'd be ok he nearly smiled but nodded firmly ''More than fine'' he said to her he hoped she'd be able to find Nel in time because he doubted he could keep up for that long with this guy maybe for a while but time was of the essence.

Ichigo watched Ana go off before he looked back at the guy he kept quiet for a moment before Ichigo then gestured him to attack with his hand as he moved Zangetsu back a bit. The guy made a face ''Your asking for it kid you know'' he said Ichigo just stared before took in a breath and readied himself it was all too quiet nothing was happening before hang on something had just happened he had been cut in his side all of a sudden. Ichigo looked down to the slit made through the side of his shinigami robes a little blood nothing much but still when the hell did that happen.

Ichigo looked to the guy who was behind him ''Focus Kurosaki Ichigo'' the guy said. ''Shit...'' Ichigo cursed in his mind he was temporarily blinded with that attack where had it come from! Ichigo didnt let his concerns show. ''Lets take this above ground, more space to play with dont you agree'' the guy said to Ichigo he nodded and then looked up where the gaping hole in the roof had been made earlier Ichigo bent his knees before propelling himself up through the hole as did the other guy, the ground cracking up underneath them from the momentum as they kicked off the ground.

[Shoshi Ana]

Ana made a face, kid, who was he calling kid, they weren’t kids, did they look like kids, actually she didn’t want to know the answer to that. Hearing Ichigo say he was going to be fine though had her nod before she ran off huffing when she heard the guy calling out to her. She knew that, she had to be quick find Nel and get out back to Ichigo and help him, not to mention get Ukei out of his cell, the fool he was supposed to be of the zero division and yet he got caught so easily what kind of person got caught that easily when the worked in a division like his. It was puzzling as to how the Soul King had not faced a threat with a protector like Ukei.

Her ears picked up though hearing something behind her and looked over her shoulder to see men coming to her. “Dam it” she mumbled and ran forwards again as fast as she could, she needed to find Nel… someone had said 214 or something before right… so she had what another hundred and something to go assuming she was going in the right direction that was, she might not be in which case she was screwed. She glanced over her shoulder still seeing them coming and sighed, she didn’t have time to fight them but they could easily catch her no doubt.

Stopping she spun on the spot and put the sword down holding her hands out. She could do this, she was still a bit weak, her shields had not been strong before but she needed to do this for her friend’s sake. She had to so she focused and tried not to let the worry kick in which it was she was just trying to push past it before looking up and spread her fingers apart as a shield shot out towards them in a wave, she just hoped it wouldn’t cave the area in as she picked the sword up again and started running “NEL!” she yelled hoping Ichigo was ok, she couldn’t sense him anymore, maybe they’d moved somewhere else, she hadn’t heard anything so she doubted he was dead, she hoped he wasn’t.

[Kurosaki Ichigo]

The guards all chased after Ana catching her up quickly but she suddenly stopped and put down the sword she had they too stopped and looked confused before they see her forming a sheild. ''Oh no you dont'' one said as they all ran forwards again only for her sheild to become a huge wave it devoured and swallowed them up dragged them back before there was some cracking heard on the structure of the cave it held but debris was falling down onto the floor.

After the wave had gone it left behind 2 of them the other seemed to of been dragged off somewhere but the two remaining were on the floor and had taken some damage but they just stood up and continued to chase Ana one got close enough so that he could reach out towards her attmepting to grab her. The moment Ana called out Nel's names she suddenly stood up and walked up to the bars she knew that voice. ''That sounded like...'' she began. ''Ana!!'' she called out loudly.


Ichigo and the other guy flew out of the top of the underground cave and shot up high into the sky before the guy flipped himself over backwards and allowed some of his reaitsu to act as platforms to support his feet in the air allowing him to stand on air so it seemed. ''Ah so you learned that too'' he smirked as Ichigo stood back a few feet from him. ''Oh course...isnt it a basic thing?'' Ichigo replied. The guy titled his head to one side before he nodded. ''Well your friend hasnt found Nel in time...im about to get serious with you and that means your finished'' he smirked. Ichigo kept his expression how he wished this guy stopped talking and just got on with it.

''Im Juroyaku, and i will---'' the guy began but he was forced to move as Ichigo was already trying to attack with Zangetsu flying at him a huge wave of energy soaring at him it exploded high up in the air from Juroyaku and beyond him leaving a loud noise to ring through the sky. After a pause the cloud disappeared and reealed Juroyaku was still standing but he had got him a large wound across his right arm and his uniform not so intact anymore ''Tch'' Juroyaku grunted as he looked at his ragged uniform. ''I wasnt ready Kurosaki Ichigo...let me show you what happens to those who dont listen'' he began Ichigo looked a little suspscious of what he meant by that but Juroyaku was flying right at him with speed Ichigo had to react and fast!
