Ichigo Kurosaki, S rank

Ichigo had been counting on his sudden attack catching Tesei off-guard, but even so, he hadn’t ruled out the possibility of him evading the slash, and even the wave somehow. As Tesei flipped over him, Ichigo straightened up and slashed up towards Tesei’s cane, deflecting the blow. It seemed that Ichigo could match, even outmatch Teisei’s speed with some ease. From the direction that Tesei had propelled himself up into the air from, it was obvious where he would land; Ichigo turned to face him, now with a more serious expression.

“I seem to be doing all right so far . . . it seems like ‘brute force tactics’ are all that I’ll need to beat you.” Ichigo said in a straightforward manner before raising Zangetsu again. Like before, a blue-white aura began to swirl about the blade, but this time, it was much more powerful; dense and pure.

“I’ll give you one more chance to leave now. If you don’t, I’ll just have to kick your ass.” he threatened. The intense reiatsu that was being given off by Zangetsu’s blade was definitely making itself known, as a brisk wind had suddenly sprung up, centered on the two fighters. It wasn’t immediately obvious, but Ichigo was becoming increasingly impatient. It seemed that every time he was about to go and help someone, a new enemy popped up.

Stats:
Hoho (speed) - 7
Zanjutsu (Art of the sword or weapon) - 7
Reiryoku (Spiritual energy) - 8
Kido/cero (Way of the spirit) - 5
Hakudo (Physical combat) - 7
Hankou (Resistance) - 8

Letting a smirk cross his face, Tesei snidely replied to Ichigo, "If you want to kick my ass, you're gonna have to catch me first." Disappearing from his current location, he was seamlessly replaced by a shadowy clone of himself. The only difference between the two were subtle white marks across the eyes, neck, and heart. Appearing behind Ichigo, Tesei disappeared again, leaving another clone behind. The twin clones both charged Ichigo in sync, drawing their respective swords from their canes. Both launched slashes at Ichigo, one going for his neck, the other the base of his spine.

On the other side of the roof, Tesei appeared hidden behind some of the typical rooftop implements. Using his special Pesquisa, he maintained a vision f the fight his twin shadow duplications were to engage in.

Zander seeing what was happening would dash across the rooftop, thudding could be heard as the soles of his boots hit the concrete. He would cast Hado 1 on the shadow clone behind Ichigo as he ran, then as so as the kido was cast he would use his right hand to draw his zanpakuto and shunpos in front of Ichigo and uses his own blade to block the incoming.The hado spell worked peefectly sending the clone behind Ichigo would be knocked of his feet and sent flying to its left a dozen feet. Then Zander would to cast bakudo 4 against the one in front of him as to restrict its movements.

You alright kid? ill take care of these two, you deal with the real one and ill join ya shortly.

Zander would look back at the one that was behind this orang headed kid and frown before casting Hado 54 causing purple spiritual pressure to build, before its fired at the clone on the ground. The clone gives out a nasty snarl as it stands and the attack hits it square in the chest where a human diaphram is. He then looks at the second clone now held in kidou and gives it a hard kick to the gut as the chain vanishes.

[color=orange] Alright time to see what this thing can do it will help me prepare for the real thing.

Ichigo Kurosaki, S rank

Ichigo was bracing himself, preparing to fend off both of Tesei’s clones at once. He had been planning to destroy the one coming from the front with the Getsuga Tensho that was still being fed into the blade of Zangetsu by his reiryoku, and then turn around to deal with the second, but then it turned out that he didn’t need to. He stared at Zander with surprise evident in his expression, as he didn’t have any clue whom the newcomer was. Remembering the situation at hand, Ichigo turned back to Tesei, looking to where he was now standing on the roof, partially hidden.

“All right, thanks for that.” He replied to Zander. He had already decided that any questions could wait, obviously chasing off the arrancars was a more important matter. Then of course, there just had to be yet another interruption. Ichigo was forced to jump back as several fiery waves rained down from above. Now the whole area in which they had been standing was shrouded in dark grey smoke. Ichigo vaguely hoped that Zander had been able to evade the barrage of fire waves as well, and yet, that wasn’t his main concern. Ichigo could feel another spiritual pressure approaching quickly.

The arrancar from earlier . . . then what happened to the other person he was fighting? Ichigo thought. Though he didn’t know who it had been, it angered him that someone who had tried to help defend Karakura might have been killed by the very person who had just attacked him. The output of reiryoku from Zangetsu was truly massive now; he knew that the new arrancar was coming up in front of him, and that was all he needed. Without hesitating, Ichigo lashed out with Zangetsu, swinging the dark blade in a powerful vertical arc. The execution of this slash unleashed the reiryoku. Before it had been swirling, almost in a playful manner, but now it soared towards Sage at an incredible speed, taking on the form of a great blue-white blast, blowing away a majority of the smoke on the battlefield.

“Getsuga Tensho!” Ichigo knew full well that speaking the name of the attack would make it much stronger, and he was done messing around. Given the speed of the attack and the range, plus the fact that Sage had been travelling at a high momentum, it was imminent that the arrancar would take moderate to heavy damage. Even if he tried unleashing his cero to block it, the resulting explosion would harm him all the more. After releasing the attack, Ichigo jumped back a few meters, looking around to see if he could spot Zander, or one of his attackers.

Stats:
Hoho (speed) - 7
Zanjutsu (Art of the sword or weapon) - 7
Reiryoku (Spiritual energy) - 8
Kido/cero (Way of the spirit) - 5
Hakudo (Physical combat) - 7
Hankou (Resistance) - 8

Standing up from his hiding spot, Tesei was stunned. Apparently there Sage and decided to rush the place and wanted Ichigo's blood. Shrugging his shoulders simply, he noticed the earth near him beginning to move. Warping again, the shadows he left behind had no time to form a clone before they were pierced by stalagmites. Appearing behind Zander, he asked the Vizard, "Did you seriously just try to kill me? The right hand man to the leader of the arrancar. Since it appears you want to try something and Sage wants to take some rage out on Ichigo, why don't you entertain me? After all, you need to pay for the rips your little stalagmites caused in my clothing." The cat over his shoulders has a few shallow cuts in it, some of which carried through to Tesei's skin. They were mere scratches to the arrancar but this showed that this Vizard had a little speed.

( xP nu! I'm not here to fight =w= I'm just here for the suspense. *DUD DUD DUUUUD* And I'm also here to put some fear into Ichi, though he is a rank higher. )

(I know, I know, I was joking. xD)

Watching the fight that the fight that was going on above her, Hibiki, the mod soul who was now inside Rin’s human body had finally decided that it wasn’t save to stay in this area much longer. Gazing down to Ichigo’s lifeless body she figured that maybe she should take it with her before something would happen to it while he wasn’t in it. Moving over towards him she bent grabbed his body and threw him over her shoulder, the easiest way for her to carry him and still be able to run when needed. “I need to get somewhere safe with Ichigo’s body before it gets hit by one of their attacks. Maybe I will be able to find Kon at the same time” She hoped as not only would it be awkward for her but it would look strange for a girl to be carrying around a boy’s body. “Please don’t get yourselves killed and stay safe” Hibiki spoke quietly to herself as her gentle blue eye traveled once more up towards the on-going fight before she turned around and headed towards the gate, exiting the school grounds.

-------------------------------

Forcing herself to keep a tight grip on her blade, Luna did not release her blade as Destino de Dielo was forced upwards by Ichigo’s blade. With only seconds to react to his swing was going towards her arm, she acted the best she could so she wouldn’t be receiving all the damage that could of happen. Moving her feet apart a bit she moved her body slightly to the right so the blade would graze past her arm but still gave her a decent sized gash across her torso. She saw no point answering his question now since he had gone off to fight the other arrancars who made an appearance in the area. “Well this sucks now” she said plainly to herself as she lowered her zanpakuto back down towards her waist. Her gaze quickly moved away from Ichigo and the others and went towards Luka and Rin.

A thought had crossed her mind as she watched Luka and Rin fight for a moment. Something that may make thing interesting for a bit or at least till Ichigo had notice what was done. Clearly seeing that Ichigo had left with espada and a fraccion, that combined could easily take her down, even just by herself Luna would have no problem doing so. Disappearing in a flash, Luna obliviously had sondio as she reappeared just above Luka and Rin. “Luka! We’re taking her back with us.” A sly grin made its way across her face as she moved behind Rin quickly, swinging her blade down quickly towards Rin forcing her to go towards the Cero. If this worked Rin would clearly have to focus on the cero before the blast would leave her badly injured. Even if the blast hadn’t hit her Luna would come behind and aim to knock the black haired girl unconscious and take her back with them.

------------------------------

The black flames that were dancing around her arm and blade started to roar more violently with rage as she had now notice there was more fights going on around her. “This has been going for too long now” Rin said quietly to herself, noticing that Ichigo was now busy with other arrancars who had now appeared. That’s when she happened to see Luna just above her and Luka and heard her speak. “You’re not taking me anywhere.” Rin said with a small growl, noticing Luna flying towards her back with her blade out towards her back. Not wanting to get any more damage than what she already had received from Luka, she lunged herself forward so Luna’s strike would be diverted from her back and would slash the empty air. She could feel the swift in wind from Luna’s strike that just barely missed her back, “that was close” she said to herself quietly. Her gentle blue eye darted forward as she had just noticed that she was heading right towards the charging cero. “Just great, I am such an idiot” Rin said to herself a bit loudly as she just realized she had just fallen for the simplest of traps. Moving Kuroku Tsuki in front of her with the flaming flat edge of the blade facing towards Luka as she skidded to a stop; she prepared herself for the cero that was most likely going to hit her head on.

Sensing the chain swinging towards him, Tesei just smirked and tapped his cane on the ground. A wall of shadows burst from the ground, surrounding Tesei and having the chain wrap around it. A trio of shadowy tendrils burst from the surrounding, passing through the chain and heading straight for Zander. Smirking to himself, Tesei replied, "Hate to be me? I am one of the second-in-commands for the Espada against a lowly under powered Vizard. I wouldn't want to be you." Dropping the shadow shield, the tendrils expanded at the points before the chain to allow to no possible way to tighten around Tesei anymore.

(Sorry to sound like a bitch, but Sage's burst of flames wouldn't have been enough to cancel out the Getsuga Tensho, seeing as Ichigo's reiryoku is 8, while Sage's is 7. Even the cero wouldn't have completely canceled it. Plus, there's the large amount of time that the Getsuga had been building for. Basically, what I'm saying is that while Sage's attack would have limited the damage, it would have been overwhelmed in the end. .-. And there's the matter of Sage's resistance only being 5. . .)

(the flames did not cancel the attack it mearly weakened it enough so he would not lose his arms blocking that attack and his armor when in ress form would make his resistnence higher but only in ress form when in sealed form his resistence is 5 )

(If it caused an explosion, that means the attacks were both canceled out when they clashed. The Getsuga Tensho would have canceled out the flames instead, and Sage would have been hit, but not with as much force as intended. Plus, you never stated that he used resurreccion, so his resistance is still 5.)

(edited and i never said he went ress form i said IF he goes ress form. And i changed the reaction in the post ^_^; sorry)

(Okay, it's all good. ^^)

Ichigo Kurosaki, S rank

As Ichigo was waiting for an answer of some sort from Sage, he could suddenly feel the air heating up. Obviously, this effect was being exuded from Sage, as the heat was centered on him. After the flame wings suddenly erupted from Sage’s back, Ichigo took a couple small precautionary steps backwards, so that he wouldn’t get caught up in the blaze. Once he heard Sage’s release call, Ichigo figured that reasoning with the arrancar wasn’t really an option; he would have to defeat him for sure.
As Sage finished his resurreccion transformation, Ichigo was visibly chastised by the sight of a massive hole being blown through the ceiling of the school, since they were both standing on the roof of said building. That was sure to bring lots of attention to this place now, so Ichigo planned to fight Sage up in the air. Of course, getting him up there could be a different story.
Knowing that an attack was imminent after Sage had spoken, Ichigo immediately focused some of his reiatsu into his hands, transferring it into the hilt, and then the blade of Zangetsu, causing it to once again, to emit a bright blue-white glow, in preparation for another Getsuga Tensho. When Sage swung his blade, so did Ichigo, if not a mere fraction of a second slower than Sage. The build-up of reiryoku was launched from the blade towards Sage’s wave of flame. Once the two attacks collided, they caused a large explosion, but Ichigo had expected this, and had promptly jumped up higher in the air as soon as he used the Getsuga. While Sage would now be cutting through nothing but air down below in the smoke cloud, Ichigo was roughly twenty feet above him, looking down.
“If you’re that serious, then fine. But I’m not fighting this way so close to the town; other people shouldn’t have to die for something like this.” Ichigo yelled down to Sage with a subtle hint of anguish apparent in his voice. He didn’t have any real desire to fight Sage, or to kill him, but he wasn’t being given any choice, so this had to happen. Ichigo readied his blade in wait for Sage. He was fully alert; he knew to expect an attack from any direction; like most arrancars, that seemed to be integrated into Sage’s way of fighting. Though he would have preferred not to, Ichigo was thinking that me may possibly be forced to use his bankai, which was another reason that he would prefer to fight up in the sky. First though, he would try and refrain from using it, Ichigo needed to stop relying on his bankai in every fight, and he knew that.
