Karakura Manga House

*Sanba peeks in and is baffled by all the manga*

*He runs around and grabs a lil bit of everything, Naruto, Dragonball, One Piece. And even one unfamiliar manga named Bleach.....odd one there*

Well looky there, I found a new manga. Oh yeah! So this Uruha guy should be around somewhere, Prolly reading his head off in a manga

*Sanba spins on his heel and vanishes, looking all around*

A little girl about 4 feet tall started following the guy that just entered the manga house. "Neh neh, oni-chan are you looking for someone?" the kid asked.

*SAnba stops and turns, dropping the mangas with a suspicious look on his face*

I swear I wasnt takin nothin.......oyy im looking at a I mean for a person named Uruha. Have you seen or heard anything?

*Sanba has a big smile on his face*

"Uruha-nee-chan?" the kid said and pointed over to the outside going to the money changer "I think she went there after scolding me for skipping class"

Ira arrived at the manga house and scanned the area immediately seeing the shinigami they faced earlier that week.

She waited for him to realize she was there, but did nothing but just stand outside the streets waiting.

*Sanba walks outside the store and meets the arrancar*

Hmm a familiar face. I have a question for you, why did my cero vanish when I attacked your big hunky friend? It seems my power as a vizard has slowly been diminishing ever since you came along?

Ira just stared at him and said "You have.... a good soul... But as to the answer to your question, its not yet the right time for that... The time will come, when all of you will know about a secret past."

Ira sonido'd to a place where there were less humans signaling him to follow her.

agh way to be difficult

*Sanba shunpod to her, keeping sharp. Left hand holding his mangas and right hand on his zanpakto*

Ira stopped at an empty soccer field next to the building where the manga house was.

"This should do just fine"

She stared at him for a couple seconds more, it was the final moments of silence before a battle would begin.

Hesitant at first, orders were orders. When she finally made up her mind she sonido'd infront him in a crouching like position attempting to slash across his chest with her right Nekote.

*Sanba threw the books at her and slid backwards*

*The books did well to stop the attack but were shreded to pieces before his eyes*

Sucker punch, so not cool

*Sanba then pointed his finger at the arrancar*

So what do people call you?

*Sanba put his hand in his jacket, grabbing his spellbook, he recently obtained his magi powers again*

Realizing that she got a dummy she scanned the area and found him again.

She stood straight seeing he was holding a spell book, one which she was familiar with.

"A magi?" she asks closing her eyes then replying to his question. "They call me Ira, pronounced like Era"

Unsure what to do, she waited for him to make a move to see his range in magi magic.

*His spellbook lights up as he says the following incantation*

Lampo Sfera!

*A small orb of lighting appears in thee palm of his left hand. He sways to the right then dashes forward*

*Just before reaching Ira he shoots into the air and the orb is shot down at Ira*

*As he descends he draws his zanpakto, ready to slash at Ira*

Missing the spell by an inch if not for her quick senses, she was able to do very little about the attack that followed, blocking it with her left Neko-te she followed it up trying to slash at samba's right cheek side.

*Sanba senses the blade coming at his cheek, but lets it strike him*

*A small cut is left on his right cheek, he then grabs the spell book again*

*Sanba shunpos a few meters in front of Ira*

*He powers up and yells "Earthquake" while stomping on the ground*

*The spell shakes the ground and makes a trench below the arrancars feet, which she falls into*

*It is about ten feet deep, Sanba slahses his zanpakto and a huge wave of darkness is released, shooting down at the trench. The attack power is multiplied because it is compressed*

Realizing she did a mistake, she was shocked as he stomped his feet casting a high level earthquake spell.

She fell in to the pit the earthquake had made with several large stones hitting her here and there. She was arguing weather to release or not, but thinking its to early she was caught by something before hitting the bottom of the pit.

Sensing its presence earlier, she did not summon it, but its still followed her.

"Winter?" with mixed emotions, a smile was almost formed from her lips as a horse with wondrous wing and a horn on the middle of its forehead came to her aide.

Even with Winters speed, the attack that was headed for her was too quick, but inches away she pointed her right index and middle finger towards it saying.

"Cero" A pure white colored cero was blasted of from the middle of the two fingers making collision with the black blast heading towards her seemingly solidifying it, and turning it into a form of ice.

"Arent you forgetting... something?"

She asks, looking over at the shinigami form the higher grounds.

*Sanba looks over to Ira, with a look of confusion upon his face*

What is this? Are you.......? No thats not possible you're an espada........

*Seeing that she used a cero Sanba attempted to summon his mask*

*His mask appeared on his face but soon after cracked and shattered to pieces*

Err! Enough of this! I think its time I summon an old friend of mine

*Sanba again puts his hand on his spellbook*

Arise Zephyr!

*A small portal of darkness appears to the right of him and a black unicorn steps out*

Hello Zeph

*Sanba rubs Zeph's neck and then looks at Ira*

So seeing as my mask hasnt been working since you showed up, and you cant seem to answer my question as to why thats happening, my thought process is telling me that if all you espada die, then ill get my powers back. And so it begins, bring out your real powers youngling and show me what you got

*Sanba grabs his spellbook and awaits the arrancars next move, with Zephyr close by his side*

Winter flies Ira out of the pit dropping her off the the higher grounds.

"To answer your question. First is.... I'm not a magi, but Winter is indeed a real familiar, he's not stolen, he was given to me as a gift.

Second, You'll have to be very careful on who you kill among us, cause killing us wont assure the return of your vizard abilities cause we didn't steal them to begin with, loosing your vizard abilities and our appearance are two separate things, you cant combine them with each other."
Realizing she said too much she sensed a Tease coming its way.

"I've said to much...."

Saying so she vanished somewhere seemingly running away from something. Her presence could still be felt, as if giving her location away on purpose.

Gah im really getting pissed now,, I dont like playing games girl!

*Sanba jumps on Zephyr's back and they take off at an extremely fast speed*

Here we go

*They follow the arrancar*

Ira sonidos somewhere within the woods, throwing a few bala coming from several directions towards Sanba.

Spoiler:

*Zephyr puts his head up and shoots a black blast to counter the oncoming attack. When the bala connect to the blast they diminsh*

Nonsense attacks will get you nowhere.

*Zephyr sprays a low level cero around the forest, clearing most of it out. Ira still isnt seen*

What the......?

With still many areas to hide from Ira fires another set of bala's bouncing with each other coming form different locations. It seemed like she can see him but he cant.


OOC: wiki says this.

Bala is an Arrancar alternative to Cero. The technique hardens the user's Spiritual Pressure and fires it like a bullet. Although it is weaker than a normal Cero, it moves about twenty times faster and can be fired at a much higher rate, but the damage is much the same. Stronger Arrancar can also fire a more powerful Bala, while retaining its twenty-fold speed.

*As this second wave of bala comes about, Sanba shunpos off of Zephyr*

*Zephyr shoots a huge black cero, as the two attacks collide Zeph lflies back in the recoil*

*Sanba is now in whats left of the woodland area, with Zephyr in the clearing*

*Sanba begins to move silently within the trees attempting to track Ira*

Sensing the shinigami's reiatsu near, she see's him point blank and jumps from behind him attempting to slash across his back with her right neko-te

*Sanba is stunned when Ira slashes his back*

*Ignoring the pain he swiftly turns and grabs a hold of her arm, then winks*

*Zephyr shunpos directly in front of the pair and shoots a point blank gran rey cero, mostly hitting Ira but also catching Sanba in the crossfire*

Gah

*Sanba falls to the ground his right arm bleeding heavily along with his back*
