Cerden
It seems the plans have been decided. From what Cerden heard, the captains going to check out the scene in LA would be Genji, Haruka, and Reimi. “What an odd mix” Cerden said. He really wasn’t sure to make of it. In one sense, it was logical. Have Genji being their powerhouse, Haruka their close range, and then you got Reimi with her out-of-this-world bankai. It seemed fair enough that the three of them get paired together. Cerden also noticed that Genji was smitten with Reimi, so that might be interesting. Cerden laughed at that thought.
Cerden continued to listen as the Head-Captain continued to speak. He mentioned how Idei would be the babysitter of the Arrancar. “Beats the hell out of me doing it.” Cerden said with a laugh of relief. He didn’t want to do that, anyways. The Head-Captain continued to say that Bryce, and TB would go with him to sign the truth with the Arrancar, who seem to be on the Soul Reaper’s side. Go figure? Lastly, the orders came from the Head-Captain. He ordered Jin and Idei to go to a town called Karakura town to see some dude named Kisuke Urahara.
“Kisuke, eh?” Cerden said as he thought about that name. He knew it..or at least knew of that guy. Quite the rep he has. The founder of the Research and Development, and the first president of the same charter. Next was Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who by the records, was a complete nut job. Now, the roll is TB’s. Quite the tale surrounded Urahara. “Jin and Idei better watch themselves. Haha” Cerden said leaning back into his chair, just laughing at the thought.
Before the meeting was adjourned, Head-Captain Syra said that Athel was in charge. It made sense. The remaining captains were no fit at being temporary leader. Captains of Squad six, eight, thirteen, and nine were just too snobby and bitchy to be qualified. Captain of Squad four had the whole restoration department to look after, and then there was Cerden. Shit, everybody knows he despises responsibility. He’s a follower than a leader…in some cases, at least.
“I guess that means I get to chillax.” Cerden said lightly, “Cool!”
Jaakuna
Jaakuna had just gotten the hell out of the Menos forest. He had done such a hard thing, he almost feels like he wants to go back and kill more of those Hollows. It’s not like they can feel, and besides, what’s a little more killing going to do? “Yeah, maybe it’s not a good idea..” Jaakuna said debating on the idea, “The ‘kings’ are always so freaking snotty. They’ll bitch if I don’t follow my orders to the exact detail” Jaakuna said knowing he better return to HQ before shit gets even worse for him.
Walking through the white sand dunes of Hueco Mundo, Jaakuna’s mind trailed to another place. He began to wonder what would’ve happened if he hadn’t gotten these powers, and if he hadn’t became a notorious criminal. Perhaps he might have been a different person, and not a killer. Mind you, he doesn’t regret a damn thing, it’s just the heat-of-the-moment that has him thinking.
Out of his little nostalgia mode, Jaakuna knew he had to hurry to HQ, so he decided to try out a little something-something that he picked up from an Arrancar a while back.
“Jin, you little traitor. You might work for the other side, but man you taught me quite the trick.” Jaakuna said. He knew this was a bit risky, a human trying to do Souindo. Quite literally put, the hollow version of a Soul Reaper’s Shunnpo or Flash Step.
“Let’s see if I can do this.” Jaakuna said as he prepared to get his Spiritual Pressure up to par where it would need to be. A roar of flames started to surround Jaakuna. The intensity of the heat could be felt from a mile away, that is how hot the flames are that Jaakuna is producing. “Almost there…” Jaakuna was about at sixty percent with this one, he now had to find a right balance between how much power and speed needed to be improved, and just how balanced. “There we go”
At the required balance, Jaakuna tried his luck. By flurrying his spiritual pressure outwards, Jaakuna was able to take a rift into the air, split his being through space, and with small, air-walking steps, Jaakuna was dashing through the air at eye-blinking speed. He’s going so fast, that if you blinked, he’s gone. And if you blink once more, there he his. Jaakuna used this technique to get himself to HQ, which weirdly was the same castle that Aizen used as his fortress so long ago.
“Finally here. Let’s go see what in the hell this Adjuches life force had to do with our cause.” Jaakuna said as he proceeded into the Castle.
