Espada 6! What are you thinking!?

[Kusubanasan]

Furiko listens to the lieutenant give a somewhat arrogant lecture about how Shinigami are designed to end people such as herself. This man goes further to claim that the Shinigami are offering the Espada some kind of leniancy because they are different from the average hollow. It all seems arrogant to Furiko, who especially did not like how he claimed that Arrancar are specifically designed to kill, and end life. She places her hands on her hips and prepares to lecture this man, as Chihiro suddenly intensifies her attack. Wooow, that's kinda cute seeing her get so worked up about that isn't it? She watches the tornado grow large enough to begin covering the entire area, when suddenly the captain with the mohawk dispells the attack, and issue a proclamation.

A distraction...? I really only came out here to pick her up before she started doing too much damage to the humans here... She suddenly remembers that Muerte had been in the Soul Society on a spying mission for ages now, perhaps he had finally lost his patience and began to assault the area? The mohawk captain suddenly prepares a fighting stance, Furiko wonders to herself if this means the man is going to try to kill them. Wha-what? I thought we were under an agreement for this contest or something? Why are you interfering and making so many hostile gestures...? I thought we were going to play fair... This depresses Furiko, somewhere deep in her heart she felt that the shinigami could be trusted, but this man suddenly going on the attack ends up causing her to doubt her previous beliefs. An amount of tears begin streaking down her face as she regretfully pulls her weapon off her back and takes up her stance in preparation of a possible attack. If this is what you're doing.... I have to protect my friends! It's all I want..

[Enjiiro Senboukun]

Tsuko was in his stance, prepared for any sudden movements when Furiko spoke up and said something about it not being a distraction. Tsuko heard the sincerity in her words when she said this, and watched as she pulled her weapon off of her back in a rather regretful manner. Tsuko believed every word she said and felt deep down that she didn't want any bloodshed to occur. He gave a look of regret and disappointment in himself to everyone that was looking at him. He lowered his weapon and said "You're right, I'm going to trust you. I just hope you're being honest with me. I'm sorry for stepping out of line, as we did agree on a one on one. I was merely trying to put our situation in perspective off of a hunch." Tsuko went to suppressed state, sheathed his blade, and Soshin'd back to where he was previously. He slightly lowered his head, feeling ashamed of his sudden actions. With his head lowered, he motioned for Furiko to calm back down, and for Chihiro to continue with the contest. He hoped that the Espada, including Furiko, would forgive his actions and carry on with watching the contest until its conclusion.

[tibajo]

Tibajo would listen to Furiko and kind of smile at the idea of Furiko reiterating what he said. He'd knew he had a good idea and knew that Furiko thought the same. He'd have been watching the fight since he got there and was actually pretending to fight Stele the entire time as Chihiro. He'd be watching and seeing Chihiro's errors and thinking of what he'd have done in many of the situations.

As he'd be watching diligently he'd hear a voice ring out from the relative silence. It was the brown haired shinigami male. He'd speak of how this Stelevein person was a unbeatable warrior. Tibajo knew that this Stelevein person was a force to be reckoned with but knew that even Chihiro could land a blow if she took into account all the variables of the fight and how her and his movements were showing. He would laugh and say loudly to him. "There's a old saying that goes: even black cat's have there lucky days." He'd laugh at the saying as he'd heard it from centuries ago and still found it to be a great thing to say when someone was on a losing streak.

He'd then hear the man say something about how all arrancar are nothing but things created to kill. Tibajo didn't really care what the man said after this statement and kinda said in his mind that the man was of no more importance to him. He'd pay the man's words no attention and know that he was truly just making himself look stupid on account of his never getting to know every arrancar. He didn't know that Tibajo and other's like him wanted nothing more than peace. He was just going off of blind information that arrancar killed all that stood in there way with no remorse for there kills life what so ever.

After finishing hearing the man's speech he'd hear Chihiro speak on the matter. Tibajo would nod to everything she said and smiled at her when she finished as he'd then lean to Furiko and say softly "She's finally learing what we've been telling her. At least I think." . After finishing his statement to Furiko he'd turn back to see Chihiro unleash one of her signature attack's 'Evil Eye'. Tibajo was always kinda curious as to this attack considering Chihiro had never shown him. He knew it made the enemy insane but he'd never known how. He'd kind of figured it made them see horrid things b he'd never really felt it neccessary to ask her to let him see.

Tibajo would watch the 'Evil Eye' fly for Stelevein and just in time the mohawked man would jump in the way and cancel it out with a attack of his own. He'd be a little surprised at first but then remembered that Chihiro wasn't exactly the strongest of Hueco Mundo yet he noticed that she put a fair amount of force behind the attack. He'd now notice that this man was of exceptional strength and that he needs to be kept a eye on incase he came for a fight. Tibajo would listen to the man and pay his words no mind as Tibajo had no clue what he spoke of. A plan? Why would they waste the time of fighting here and now if they had a plan already set up in the Soul Society? Tibajo would laugh loudly as he thought of this in his head.

After the man finished his speech he'd notice Furiko going into a fighting stance after finishing the speech with the man. He was a bit worried as to letting her go to fight the man but knew that he had no right to stop her and that it was her fight and not his. He loved Furiko like a sister but was not going to stop her from something she'd set her mind to even if it meant her death. He'd make sure to avenge her but he would not stop her no matter what anyone said, even if Cero had ordered him to halt her.

After seeing her go into a fighting mode he'd see the man revert back to a katana and say something about how wrong his actions were. He'd smile at the man from behind Furiko and nod and mouth the words 'thank you'. Tibajo was glad that the man could find it in his heart to not cause bloodshed in a time of hopeful peace. He'd not wanted to fight the man if he had killed Furiko. He'd not want a friendly and peaceful mans blood on his hands just because he found it neccessary to do battle with one of his comrades.

[Kusubanasan]

Furiko notices that the mohawk captain put his weapon away as soon as he noticed the sincerity in her words. She gives a sigh of relief upon seeing him sheath his blade, and she places her weapon back on her back. Thank... goodness... I knew that man had honor... I just knew it... Furiko places her hand to her chest and closes her eyes, her thoughts drifting off a little about a what if scenerio if the arrancar and shinigami could agree to a non-aggression pact. She then remembers what the lieutenant had said, and it depresses her a little. As long as we arrancar exist... Shinigami will always want to destroy us... won't they? Why do I have to die... just because of what I am..? I know i'm not innocent... I know I've eaten souls to survive before, but... such as animals in the wild, we hollow are population control... yet, for simply fulfilling our role in nature, we are persecuted and slain like scum, by people who believe themselves superior to us.... why do things have to be like this?

Tears begin streaking down her face as she gazes at the people around her for a moment before fixing her gaze back on the man that Chihiro is fighting. That man, Stelevein. He is the captain commander of soul society, the one who gives the orders for his men to run out and slay hollow. She wonders to herself if she should hate this man. I don't know anymore... I just wanted to live in a world with more color... With that, Furiko stops speaking, and only silently watches her surroundings, hoping to herself that things won't end badly for Chihiro.

[Captain Stelevein]

Stelevein stops paying attention to chihiro as Tsuko had gotten in the way. It angered him, but he didn't say a word. After that was done he'd notice Tibajo and hear the saying in which he would repeat. Stelevein knew of the truth in his words, and responded to them. "What you say is true, I admire you for that. Such a shame that this is happening." He'd say before sighing and turning his attention now to Furiko and what she had said.

"My dear, you just don't get it. I do not want to end your life, I would like nothing more then to live in peace with you all, but I also can't stand humans getting hurt. It brings pain to me, I don't wish to have any of you killed, to be truthful, I never gave orders for any of you to be killed, only stopped. But, if you must hate me, then hate me, it matters not to me." He'd say before walking to where Tibajo and Furiko were.

"You all are free to go. I do not wish to keep you here, as it was never my intentions. I simply wish you not to harm these humans, so if I allow this barrier to be released, I expect you to honor it by not allowing these humans to be hurt. I do not wish to interfer with you, but I do not wish you all to interfer with us." He said before lowering the barrier and returning his zanpakutou to it's sealed state.

As everything was done said and over he walked back to where the senkaimon he entered through was. Waving bye he unsheathed his Zanpakutou and stabbed it into thin air saying, "Open" As the senkaimon appeared he walked through it and gestured for Captain Tsuko and Vice Captain Sieghart to follow. Once they were all inside the senkaimon dissappeared and they began their jorney back to soul society.

[Enjiiro Senboukun]

Tsuko saw Tibajo nod at him and thank him for backing down, to which Tsuko replied with a nod of his own. He stood and watched as the rest of the Espada made no gestures of preparing to fight, as well as Furiko put her weapon back, all the while wearing a relieved expression on her face. Tsuko then saw more tears from Furiko, to which he felt a slight bit of grief even though he knew it wasn't him that had caused it this time.

Tsuko remembered the words that were spoken by Sieg not long ago about the Espada and Shinigami. Tsuko figured that this was the reason why Furiko was upset, and he couldn't help but feel anger towards Sieg. Tsuko then thought about how it wasn't normal to feel anger towards an opponent for merely saying words; and to an enemy at that, right? Were they even the enemy in the first place? Did they not say multiple times that they had wanted peace between the Espada and Shinigami? Thinking about all this confused Tsuko to a great extent, so he just pushed it on the back-burner of his mind and refocused on the events at hand.

When Tsuko snapped back in to reality Stele was mid-sentence, talking to the Espada. Stele was telling the Espada that they were free to go, and that he expected them to not harm any humans once he took down his barrier. Tsuko agreed to himself, with a sigh of relief, giving the Espada and Stele his trust that nothing would go wrong with the humans. When the senkaimon opened Tsuko stepped in after Stele, and they made their way back to the Soul Society.

[Sieghart Rayvnl]

As Sieghart waited for the fight to end he began to get impatient. "I'm so ready to go home, this has been super pointless. If they would just quit causing trouble in the human world we could be kicking back drinking some sake right now." Sieghart sighed and stood dusting off his pants and continued, "Seriously, we should probably finish this up soon to go check up on the other captains." Sieghart said looking towards Tsuko and seeing the worry there in his eyes, knowing that he was worrying about the same thing.

However, as Tsuko leapt forward and intercepted the green hair espada's attack Sieghart cringed in surprise. "Uh, Captain Tsuko, I don't think thats a good idea interfering with Stele-sama's game." Sieghart said dropping off to a whisper towards the end, listening to Tsuko's explanation. Sieghart knew that Tsuko had been worried about the soul society so wasn't exactly taken aback by his words just the actions he chose to address it. "I can't say I don't agree, like i said earlier its about time we were getting back anyways." Sieghart said to himself in the background.

As he said this he took notice of the other espada's reaction to Tsuko's intrusion. The pink haired espada drew her sword and the expression on her face surprised Sieghart. She looked as if she genuinely didn't want to fight, which confused Sieg even more. She was an espada, a hollow, she was suppose to be evil and love to fight, but this small woman in front of him clearly didn't want to fight Tsuko. "Arrancar are confusing," Sieghart said to himself and dismissed the idea of good hollow. It was impossible, right? He found himself not being able to answer his own question and that he didn't want to hurt the woman. He would have some serious thinking to do once they got back to the soul society.

Then Captain Stelevein addressed the arrancar telling them that he didn't want to kill them, he just didn't want the humans to be hurt and sealed his sword. This Sieghart could understand, but couldn't wrap his mind around how it would work. They were hollows, they hurt humans its what they do, it made no sense, but he trusted his captain and followed Stele and Tsuko into the senkaimon. As the gate began to shut he looked back at the espada more confused now than ever. Sieghart smiled at the pink haired espada thinking to himself, "Oh well, there's a nice big bottle of sake at home to help me work through these problems," and turned his back on the world of the living making his way back home.
