Paris, France : Dance to my tune, the opera of death {Claire and Michael friendly meet}

Michael rips out his other zanpaktou and spins them both around.

"Very well then.. you have annoied me enough.. I shall take you down once and for all!"

He spins his blades about rapidly producing small sparks of electricty. He begins to run rapidly and then dives towards her spinning his blades around aiming to slash her or her broom.

Jumping off from the broom she grab held of a statue throwing 3 cards towards the shinigami, her broom looked like it took the toll on things, but its not like its the only one she had. "My my, that's my favorite one, how mean."

Michael gets hit by the three cards and gets thrown back, He falls down to the ground and he coughs, He sits up and feels he was cut by the cards, He clenches his fists and activates his shikai.

"Shikai - Tormenta! Lend me your power!"

Various thunder clouds begin to form, and soft rain begins to fall, his zanpaktou shifts and gloves form on his hands with sparks around them. Michael jumps up and takes the cards out of his gut and drops them onto the floor. He then begins to charge up electricity within his hands, Sparks begin to orbit his hands and grow stronger.

"Ehh, shikai this early?" Claire smirked as she released her lock from the statue and landing on the ground, she crushed the card that was easily resting on her hand turning it into a gigantic mallet which she rested on her shoulders just as easily. "Electricity eh, interesting. You remind me of a faint memory lying within the memories i lost, this should be quite a show."

"Heh.. Lets hope so!"

Michael charges up his hands and begins to fire various Thunder bolts towards her direction. As he does this parts of his body begin to glow the same colour as the electrcity Including his eyes.

Claire threw several orb like objects towards the volt like energy shot towards her, amazingly, they were caught by it and diminished with it. Alarmed by it, she swiftly sonidoed in front of him, and attempted to smash the gigantic mallet across his ribs, coming from the right side.

Michael sees the large weapon come towards him. He grips his Zanpaktous firmly and then dodges the attack by using shunpo making him appear behind her. As he appears behind her he sends both his Zanpaktous towards her back aiming to slash her back in seperate ways.

With the force used towards a hit that did not connect, it sent her to spin around as to block the up coming attack that it almost looked planned. The zanpakuto didnt cut through to the mallet but the electricity did and it sent Claire flying just 3 feet away before she caught her balance once more, the sparks could still be visibly seen running through her body, but she didn't give a grunt not a wail of pain.

The mallet that she used got stuck like a sticky substance seemingly melting from the energy that went through to it.

"EHH that's unfair, attacking from the back" she complains poking her tongue out.

Crushing two cards this time, two kattana's appeared one on each hand. "Cheaters always loose" she teased.

Michael spins his blades about and then joins the two swords together back to back, a lighting covers it then dissaperes and a double sided zanpaktou is replaced with it. He spins the blade about rapidly making the currents increase and add together making a large spinning ball of electrcity. You can hear the electricty sparking and clashing againts each other and a bright blinding light is produced from it. Soon enough a large electrical beam is fired the size of a tornado. The beam fires towards Claire and alot of Michaels energy is sent into the one attack. He is being surrounded by electricity and his eyes are covered in blue electricty. The beam is fired rapidly and is being sent towards her the size of a large cero made by an arrancar. The beam that is being sent to her destroys eveyrthing in it's path. Michael then shouts out in a deepend tone.

"SONIC BOOM!"

Seeing an attack he set loose, Claire pondered on wether to release her zanpakuto or not, but decided not to and concentrated condensed reiatsu over her right palm, the beam was just inches away fromher when she held her arm up with palms opened seemingly navigating the trajectory of her attack. "Gran ray cero." Within a millisecond, dark red energy surge formed almost instantaneously causing a massive collision with Michael's electric shot.

It should be sufficient enough to stop his attack, but it was quite bothersome to fire a grand ray cero in her current state.

A sweat drop slides down Michaels face, He feels the power of the gran rey colliding with his sonic boom, He tries spinning his zanpaktou even faster to try push back the gran rey towards her. As the two collide both attacks are being pushed back and fourth from each other, with massive amounts of power being used.

The more ideal move for her to take was to escape, but she wanted to see how the battle of the two energy balls would end, it seemed like the shinigami upper hand as he was already focusing on getting the energy collision to move more towards her, but she wasnt doing anything at all.

"You're wasting your energy." a bit serious now, she spoke. "If i fire another one with the same amount of strength, you will die."

"Heh... Bring it on!..."

He pants slightly and then stops spinning his zanpaktou blade, the large beams combine and begin to fly towards him, The beams reach 3 inchis away from his face and he quickly shunpos out of the way before it hits him. The beams are fired towards the building itself and hits hardly making a large hole in the wall making the plae begin to crumble and fall. Michael dodged the beams and shunpoed to the side of claire, standing there he panted sweating grabbing hold of his zanpaktou firmly trying to spot any openings she may have.

Claire was relieved that she didnt have to shoot another grand ray cero, cause firing one would mean being scolded by both her superiors and the ones who govern Hueco Mundo, the 2 massive ball of energy later joined each other creating one massive ball of pain, it destroyed everything on its path, including a building with humans in them, she grins upon the realization that the shinigami choose him self over those who he could save. She turned to the side keeping close watch of him, he shunpo's next to her and she kept alert for his next course of actions, but she wouldn't want this thing to drag along for too long, she threw two cards at him, followed by another which had a bomb drawing on it, it was one of those cards that explodes when it hits something.

Michael bows his head in shame and then instantly gets filled with rage he spins his zanpaktou around and shouts out.

"Shikai rank 2"

His blades dissapere and solid red electrical bolts replace them asif they were two blades, vibrating rapidly filled with alot of compressed electricty. He begins to spin the around rapidly and electrical balls the size of bowling balls fire, three if these at a time are shot. These go flying rapidly and spin around while in the air and collide with the three cards making a large explosion destroying anything around and underneath it. This explosion makes the smoke and dust to rise from the ground.

Using the explosion to her advantage, it was only then that she realized how rash the shinigami was in making decisions without thinking, like her, he seems to have a boiling point, for when reached, everything breaks loose, they loose it, calmer than usual, Claire crushed 3 cards, and threw it, from it came 3 small hollows that looked quick, they had the legs of kangaroo like creature which could be visibly seen, even if they were just bone like.

With a snap of a finger, the 3 spread out to cause havoc.

"Im interested now... lets play" Claire laughed, almost instantaneously reverting back to her child like form, the 3 hollows had the speed matching a 3rd seats shunpo, but there defense didn't look tough at all.

"Dammnit!"

Michael spins his swords about and he sends three large electric balls and sends them up to the skys. At first it seems to do nothing. But then a variety of thunderbolts begin to fire down and strike the area there in, Moving about as he does, He begins to charge towards her instead of the hollows, he begins to think up a plan as he runs his speed slightly increases, He begins to shunpo around the place. As he gets closer to her he shunpos from side to side, the thunderbolts begin to get faster and more vicious.

Anticipating his attack, she waited in a defensive stanse, she's tasted a volt from his attack, and her hierro can actually take it to some level, but a little too much could be a little to dangerous for her, so she took re-percussion, before he got too close to her, she held her right hand up as to stop him without any real interest in his next move.

"Chotto ma te yo" she said, meaning, hold on for a second. "Arent you moving a little to rash, AGAIN." She said her tone going a little sharper on the word AGAIN, it was almost as if she was mocking him, knowing he fell for her trap yet again.

"Take a closer look at them." she noted, referring to those of which she had released from her cards, they were now far of, far from each other, feeding of humans that of which he already took for granted from his earlier move.

"Heh nope. Humans heh they live the die... heh these things happen.. Your my real target!"

He shunpos next to claire and sends a swing to her with his zanpaktou and then begins to shunpo around her attacking her from all angles, Each strike he makes sends down a bolt of electricty, Each strike also holds a messege that he has, his Zanpaktou powers activate a tad bit more and begin to produce more thunderstorms in the whole area that they were in, making it rain and begin to shoot down thunderstorms. THe humans see the thunderstorms and begin to evacuate the area.

Though the humans ran in complete total chaos, the 3 speed hollows devoured much to there liking, whilst Claire on the other hand was being attacked sanctimoniously, as the shinigami spun all over her, her hiero could very much stand the volts of electricity, but she had to go about and block every swing he gave, she got cut twice, one on the lower left arm, another on the left hip which bled lightly, but she was enjoying pretty much every second of it. Eager to break free from this trap, she found a gap between the chain of attacks and sonidod for the escape.

She was standing atop another broom transport when she pointed her right index finger towards him saying.


"2 more conditions and your as good as dead." she laughed sadistically as she threw a rain of dark reiatsu charged cards towards him, they came in so many numbers that it would be impossible not to get hit by a little of them.

But by what she meant by the last statement she said, a mystery to most, but it would make sense to those who knows her.

"Hmm.. this lil git aint goin down easily isnt she!!"

He begins to run making the cards follow him He runs forward slightly away from clair and looks towards the cards, he begins to spin his zanpaktou and begins to slash down the cards, he managed to slash down a few cards but still got hit by the rest, being cut and beaten and being filled with bruses. He then places his Zanpaktous across his body croushes down and is then attacked by the cards, which then go after they hit him, he then gets up and says weakly.

"urgh... You may be my opponent Pants slightly from being tired and in pain. but I have other things to do now! Other things that requier my attention which are duties for my job."

He raises his arm and opens his palm at her gripping his Zanpaktou grips with his thumbs. He was panting and was injrued but would still go on even if his clothes were torn and was bleeding lightly but he would still not go down.

He always said to himself "Even if you know your not gonna win, Its always honourable to go down with a fight!" he got this from an old book of fight heroes. He noded to himself and then closed his eyes. He lifted his face so that it was facing her. His hands were placed side by side and he began to chant weakly.

"Disintegrate, black dog of Rondaniini. Look upon your burning soul and sever your throat... Bakudo 9 Geki"


The unblockable kido is sent to her and strikes her, she is then surrounded by a large red light which completley paralizes her. He then graps hold of his Zanpaktou once again and Shunpos off to the three hollows, He jumps inbetween the three hollows and begins to fight them off as much as he could allowing the captured humans to escape. Sadly he was too late in saving the others as they were killed and eaten by the hollows.

Spoiler:

Claire was caught by surprise, she didn't think such a weak form of kido would work on her, but she it did intrigue her how things would turn out, seeing as she her attack was stalled, and now she couldn't move. "Nice move, but lets hope your not to late." laughing like crazy, the hollows spread out once more, but one had it's arm cut off, seeing as it was, one of the 2 hollows which were perfectly fine from the attack, took advantage of the situation and ate the injured one.

Where they both became faster, and continued on there mission, which was to cause chaos even in face of death.

"lemons... clever sob's"

He begins to spin his zanpaktou once again creating a circle of electricty. three balls of electricty appear the size of bowling balls he then focuses and the balls hover above him. The balls split apart and begin to turn into multiple small balls the size of marbels. Small but still powerfull and fast, he seperated them into two groups and then sent them off rapidly after each of the now remaining two hollows. Michael stood there as he focused strongly trying to guide them.

One hallow got caught by the blast and died, but the other who seemed a bit smarter fired cero to counter the rapid electrical charged power balls. On the other side of things, the beam of red light which was surrounding Claire was starting to crack showing weakness in the spell, she was after all an espada, and a high ranking one to be stalled too long by such spells. She could feel it again, her fingers, her limbs were going back to her one by one, and the red light wont stop her from anything.

Michael looks over to Clair.

"Crap I better hurry and finish this off!" (by that he ment the Remaining hollow)

Michael charges and spins his Zanpaktou around with his hand and places it out to the side and he begins to sprint towards the hollow, As he runs electrcity passes through him and his sprint slowly begins to increase, He finally reaches the hollow and runs up to it. He jumps up into the air and then throws his double sided Zanpaktou to the hollow and a large spinning electric frisbee type object is sent to the hollow like a large spinning spiked plate about to slice through the hollow.
