Hoshi noticed this phase was more difficult and stayed close to Katia and Toshiro.

Katia kept an eye on her cousin, as she ducked under a strike from an Arrancar.

( happy Halloween. :) going to see Book of Life tomorrow. )

Saya was getting the hang of alternating between her Shinigami abilities and Quincy ones feeling she was becoming more confident. She wasn't going to let Kusaka fool her a second time.

(Did you enjoy The book of Life? I certainly did)

Soji watched his sister switch from her two abilities with a smile on his face, completely glad that his sister was getting more confident in her abilities.

( I did ! I loved the art style and the story. Supposedly this is part one of three movies. )

" You are doing excellent Yuzu. " Kisuke said sensing she was going to unlock her Shinigami powers soon.

(I really want the soundtrack...)

"Thank you kIsuke," Yuzu responded.

( me too. )

"Now you should soon feel somthing at your side. " Kisuke said senseing that the Zanpaktou was ready to appear.

"Something on my..." Yuzu started to say before feeling something at the left side of her body. "A sword?" she asked, confused.

" Yep. That's your zanpaktou. Now all you need to do is unlock it ,but you should rest first." Kisuke said.

"Rest sounds like a wonderful idea..." Yuzu replied.

Kisuke nodded and had her sit down. He hoped he had a chance to train her some more but had a feeling he wouldn't.

Yuzu felt like she was about ready to pass out, just by summoning her zanpakuto.

" Just relax. I'll get you some water. " Kisuke said and went to find Isshin.

"okay, this just isn't fair," Ichigo muttered as he held Zangetsu in front of him. Not only was he fighting an Arrancar that looked like Grimmjow, but also two holograms of that bastard that took Orihime.

" Clear your head Ichigo. These holograms seem to be able to detect what enemies we had trouble with. " Tetsu said.

Kisuke programmed it that way, didn't he?" Ichigo asked before getting up and back into his stance, before closing his eyes.

" He did. " Tetsu said. " Rumor has it Kusaka knows how to create illusions like Aizen did. "

"I thought he only had the same powers as Toushiro," Ichigo commented.

" He does. But I've never really belived Aizen was locked away. " Tetsu said.

"So you think Aizen is helping him?"

" I don't know. It just seems odd though. " Tetsu said.

"It's possible" Tatsuki said as she had been overhearing the conversation while fighting

" Any thing is possible. " Rukia said hoping Aizen wasn't free.

"Then let's hope he isn't. Who knows what those bastards could be doing to Orihime-chan..." Tatsuki said annoyed as she rushed one of the clones in front of her, punching through it with her fist blazing

Rukia nodded knowing if Aizen was alive Hoshi would be next to be taken. She didn't want to see another of her friends being captured.
