Raul's eyes narrowed. He was thinking his way out of this. Normally, he's use Bankai to counter, but, looking at Zuki, he realized that if he did, she might just die...
He used Shunpo, and struck at one of the figures with Shunko. It burnt his hand, he pulled back. "Nifty trick." He said. He replaced Shunko with his sealed Zanpakuto, and began running between the figures, swiping at them. No effect.
"Very nifty..." He said. He'd just have to hit her, head on. He gathered his speed, moving straight through them, burning his face and chest, before throwing himself in her direction, looking to plunge his zanpakuto straight through her neck...

Taka dodged the attack. The figures still stood there, waiting for an order from her. She thought the best way would be mulitple attacks. "1, 2, 4, 7, attack!" Four of the figures moved quickly at Raul. "Restrain him, 3, 9, use infiltrate technique." Two more figures joined around him. "10-20 guard all exits. All shadows turn to medium velocity." She basically just asked them turn to the second level, above regular and below maximum, which was a 2nd or 3rd degree burn, which is still VERY painfull.

Raul saw the figures move toward him. "Yeah, ok..." He said. As he dodged the first few, 3 and 9 came from behind, burning his back up. "Argh, yes!" he laughed, playing off the injury. "I could use some more of that, mates!" He gave a toothy grin, from looking at him, one could not realize how much pain he was in, the skin peeling off his back. He launched himself toward Taka, yet again, but this time, attempted to tackle her to the ground, before dealing the finishing blow...

Taka laughed, this man was strong but she was still only at her medium velocity. "You can't take me down, we both like heat but it this case mine is stronger!" She pushed out her hand. "17, 18. Sacrifico!" Two finger moved to her and turned into energy into her hand, very hot energy. "Bala!" She shot the blast at him, even if it wasn't as powerful as Cero that blast would burn like heck.

Raul noticed the figures move to her. Sacrifico sounded like Sacrifice, so he was expecting something to that effect. The Bala was a bit fast for him, and he covered his body with his forearms, concentrating and focusing his reiatsu to that part, countering with a small blast of his own. Though not enough to negate her attack, it kept him alive, though the skin on his arms was basically non existent.
He smirked, and spit on his arms, rubbing it in. "That's some power you got there." He said. "Maybe if you turn up the power a little, it'll actually effect me. Until then..." He tilted his head, "I can take anything you can dish out. My pain is of no consequence. I only care about what you do to others..." He shook his head. He'd need to catch up with the boy at this rate. He could do it, he knew he could. "End this. Use your strongest attack, so I can show you what power really is..."

Taka laughed. "I've never heard anyone ask me for my strongest attack." She perched on her heals. "I'm not really one for killing people but I do enjoy watching them suffer. My strongest velocity will only let you suffer for a bit before melting your bones. I don't want to kill you, I want you to fear me, hate me, despise me, want to kill me, I want you to suffer. You can't suffer if you're absorbed by my zanpakutoh and you name is simply Número 158." She looked around to room. "You may have already realized that I don't fight with all my souls at once."

Raul smiled. "I figured as much. And you may have already realized that I haven't used my Bankai, and used my Shikai shortly." He laughed. "Perhaps we can go full power when there isn't life at stake, but for now, I want to end this." He stood tall. "I can take anything you throw at me at this point. You'll find I won't lose to the likes of you."
He touched the chain of his neck, and walked to one of the figures. He waved his arm in and out of it, burning the skin from the underside of his arm, as well. "I don't enjoy pain, but I can take it..." He said, and, without even setting himself, he flash stepped to her, cutting downward with all his might, hoping to catch her off guard...

Taka took a large step backwards, avoiding the attack. "Unfortuneatly for you, you just swiped your arm through one of my weakest fighters, they're not all at the same level, it depends what they were when I slaughtered them." She gestured to the figures. "These are my weakest, I never fight with my strongest again weak opponents. These people are peasents and teachers who get their will to fight from me, the obey me, but that doesn't change their powers. You just swiped your arm through Número 12, a baker." She laughed.

Raul smirked. "Speaks a lot for you that you remember the occupations of the weakest. Come and fight me. You speak as if you've initiated any attacks, rather than hiding behind these weaklings..." He stood taller. "If you're such a powerful opponent, get off your high horse, and finish me. I dare you." He licked some blood off of his shoulder. "Unless you're too intimidated by the fact that I have both talent and style. In which case, I can't blame you..."

Taka smirked. "All of these souls are a part of me, I have given them life and power. Though my actual for may not be the one hurting you, none the less it is me." She stood up. "These weaklings are enough to do that to you so I wouldn't go insulting them. Imagine what my stronge fighters could do to you at that velocity." She laughed at the thought. "That'd be funny." She looked at one of the figures. "Número 6, sacrifice yourself in my name." She ordered. The figure turned into a pile of ash. "Isn't finally getting rid of life after such a long time a relief, why yes it is. Now all the power that child held goes back to me, and yes that was a child, a little girl to be exact. I wonder if her mother ever told her to not talk to strangers." She laughed again. "But if I remember correctly the little bitch put up quite a fight."

Raul smirked. "I do believe these wounds I sustained were voluntary, by me. Now that I know what your Resurrecion does." He laughed, "you won't be able to kill me at this level." He smirked. "Was that comment supposed to scare me? The fact is, as long as there are those I need to protect, I am invincible. Come on, hit me with your best shot." He chuckled, and glanced at Zuki, saying to her, "This little bitch is putting up quite a fight..."

Taka chuckled. "I don't have time to play around with you. Merk should be well on his way now. That is if he didn't screw up again." She laughed. "Now I'll take my leave," She looked down at some of the papers floating around. "Garganta, eh? Thanks for letting me know what you and your captain were up to kid." She grinned maliciously at Zuki. "Goodbye now." She held out her hand and opened a Garganta, sealing her zanpakutoh at the same time. "Remember my name, Raul. Taka Kasai, the one who you couldn't defeat." She snickered and stepped into the Garganta, then closing it behind her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Zuki managed to push herself over to a table, sat up and rested on it. "That was a fair try, Raul."

Raul sighed. "Shit...SHIT!!!" He yelled. "I have to catch the kid...I have to..." He said. He had lost, in his mind, and he could not believe it. After all that, after all he had worked, he couldn't beat her. He held his shoulder, and his arms, which were now bleeding profusely. He set himself for Shunpo. "If I go as fast as I can, then maybe....maybe..." His voice trailed off, and blood loss finally got to him. Falling on the ground, his wounds bled openly, and his breathing was unsteady.
I...lost...

Zuki winced. "It's over...I'm sorry but it's over." She sighed. "After all that work we lost, but we'll have our vengence." She whispered softly, to weak to speak loud, her energy draining slowly from her. Roren had been taken, two captains had tried and failed at stopping them but in the end they had aimed for a captain but got a lieutenant, her lieutenant, and she blamed herself. It should be her in Hueco Mundo, not Roren. Though she knew this was better for the Soul Society she just couldn't accept it, she had failed again. Her heart beat steadily in her chest.
Maybe the Soul Society was lost, maybe they were going to loose this battle, if two captains and a lieuteant couldn't take down one Espada and a comrad than all seemed to be crumbling beneth them.

It had been quite a boring day in the office without any assistants to help with the latest batch of reports to turn in to the various divisions. The big thing was, they were all due by noon and he had barely dented the stack! It was horrible to have to do it all by himself, however in a moments notice, a hell butterfly had emerged into his office. Listening to the message, his eyes widened as he heard what was going on. He dropped the brush immediatly and rushed out of his office towards the Research and Development labs.
It only took minutes using flash stepping to get there as fast as he could. Strangely the doors to the building were open, however as he entered and looked around he could tell there had been a bit of chaos. Emerging in another area, he looked to see two figures on the floor seemingly in pain.
"Raul San...and....Zuki...Chan?" He murmurred slowly as his hand was on his Zanpakuto. They looked exhausted and injured by the sight of them. He held his hand as if waiting for something before rushing over to their side. "Someone tell me...what has happened?"
