[AREA] Everyone in this Thread
----------Due to a strange presence, the protagonist party can feel a sudden change in how they are outputting their energy, it was clearly less than before as if something came and yanked the plug and the battery from their computer. However the dead zones linger as the anomaly was not discovered yet or dealt with. In the midst of the chaos, one Shinigami disappeared from the scene as another Shinigami followed. Soon after Tessa went to have fried chick, her fire wall dissipates due to the strange presence and the remaining squad of Monsuta soldiers donned their mask and begin to make their way to where Tsumi and Xathis will be, furious about being burned by a certain dragon girl. Suddenly from the rooftop, a Monsuta soldier that survived the initial attack drops to the ground with his head clearly impaled by war-arrow, a variation of an arrow that is thicker in stock for handling greater forces from a stronger bow; the arrowhead was covered in blood, but for an arrow to strike on spirits without being a Quincy, there is someone out there...hunting them.

In the situation among the Rescue Natalia Team, Tessa's outburst was not affected by the odd presence as her fire rushes at both the female opponent and Natalia while her rage is still going. Corgan's kido seem to be failing, but Tessa's shunpo succeeds to the point that she reaches Xathis, despite unconsciously knocking Corgan off-balanced. Her fire breath would hurt Firestar, but would risk hurting the now-exposed Natalia. When Tessa's second blast comes at Xathis, it will likely hurt other party members including Corgan, Tsumi; Corgan is likely to take most of the damage if he refuses to dodge. Natalia and Tsumi are still capable of talking to their Zanpakutō, but they would notice a change.

Field Effect
Ability Sealing (Paranormal): Kido, Cero/Bala, Zanpakutō Release, Form Releases (except for Resurrección,) and other mystical abilities are strangely suppressed by a presence in this battlefield. Active mystical abilities are not affected, but they cannot use further releases after this point until Zero claims it wore off. Natural abilities like Resurrección and Dragon Powers can bypass it. (Active)

Dead Zone: Communication is unavailable, thus there will be no reinforcement coming at all other than those who would suspect it outside of Darwin. (Passive)

Chill: It is an uneasy feeling, so concentration would become less easy to maintain. It feels like winter without coats. (Passive)

Battle Fury: A feeling of heroism and fury comes from the heart and it is either unsettling or a motivation to fight to the very end. It feels quite warm, even in this chill. (Active)

Initiatives:

NPC's Actions
Not important and not the posting order; but if you want to know who fired first in the immediate time, this should probably be useful for instant use abilities like flash step and whacking people with wooden sticks. If your "time" shows below an NPC's turn, they are a bit faster if not quite faster than you would react to unless you have skills to tilt that favor like General Speed and Focus, which can be used to defend yourselves against sudden attacks or speed attacks as you have not acted until that moment, not just now.

Shinigami 7: He rushes at the new Challenger, intending to strike him with a standard chop from his Katana-Zanpakutō via left flank from the Challenger's position. He shouts out a battle cry as a way to psyche out the new Challenger to throw off his focus. He has a high chance of succeeding in the race between speed vs. reflex if Shade does not have the Focus level of Adept or over.

Monsuta 7: Only seeing Tsumi in plain sight, he runs at him, intending to strike at him with his katana-Zanpakutō. Considering Tsumi is flat-footed, he will definitely succeed unless Tsumi has Advanced General Speed, Adept Weapon Use and Advanced Focus to block it in time after getting out of the zan-world. While ignited, he can set fire to those he attacks.

Shinigami 6: Seeing the new Challenger as a bigger threat, he goes to help out Shinigami 7 take on the new threat by attacking him head on from the Challenger's ten-o-clock direction while Shinigami 7 was coming at him from his eight-o-clock direction. Should Shinigami 7 succeed in distracting the Challenger, Shinigami 6 will have a higher chance of landing a strike from his wakizashi-Zanpakutō.

Monsuta 8: Tsumi is the only one who is in sight and he tried to charge his cero, but it does not work, thus he wasted his turn contemplating on it does not work in a dramatic tone.

--Corgan's Time--
--Tessa's Time--

Shinigami 4: Just as fast as her fearless leader, Corgan, Shinigami 4 tried to use kido to set up a barrier to protect Tsumi from the oncoming Monsuta, but failed and wondered why.

Monsuta 4: Having a good view of the situation, he sees their leader in the midst of the chaos and rushes on the rooftops before going to leap down to Corgan with a seemingly devastating death-from-above strike with his large axe.

Shinigami 5: He is with Corgan at the time and he tries to erect a barrier to block Firestar, but nothing happens. He stands there, pondering why it does not work and begins to draw out his sword.

Shinigami 3: Hearing that Xathis was the one who attacked, he was furious and tries to strike Xathis with a Kido, but it fails, leaving this shinigami pondering about why his vengeance cannot manifest a Byakurai.

Monsuta Leader: Seeing only Tsumi, he tries to fire a cero, but fails, leaving him in shock that Tsumi does not go boom.

Monsuta 2: Seeing only Tsumi, he tries to fire a cero, but fails as well.

Monsuta 1: Seeing how his buddies are failing, he says, "fucking wusses," while shaking his head and goes to attack Tsumi with his katana-Zanpakutō, helping his buddy while he is at it. With Tsumi flat-footed, the likelihood of him being hit is high, but not as high as with the previous one because the previous one would wake him up after a successful landing of a hit.

--Xathis's Time--
--Firestar's Time--
--Tsumi's Time--

Shinigami 8: Seeing Tsumi in trouble, he rushes over to Tsumi, to attack the two Monsuta members who are trying to hack Tsumi to pieces for being flat-footed. (14 vs 17 vs 2) Shinigami 8 tries to strike at Monsuta 7 while he is going to strike Tsumi, but Monsuta 1 magically jumps in front of the attack and takes a hit, thus Tsumi is not saved from the first strike, but was saved from the second strike.

--Natalia's Time--

(DM OOC: Apparently the NPC's are not very bright at the time or they need some coffee... There is no additional psychological stuff this time except for Zero.)

ooc: nevermind

Tue Nov 26, 2013 10:49 pm

ooc it was my turn anyway

Natalia looked to the person who had moved to apperantly was trying to hit her. She could not help but laugh as she slowly shook her head. That was a horrible attempt to hit me if i was your target. but i do so love to insult and run to get busy so bye. With that she darted off to find a new special hiding place with those who may be following her. She was interested in the one lady snapping but she figured it would be better to get her own possible proublem under control. she soon managed to find a place where she would be able to possibly relax and get things under way.

She quickly moved to sit on the floor and slowly began to focus her mind. She slowly took everything in and attempted to make her own way into her inner world. the strange feeling she was getting was only getting stronger. and in many ways she could not help but feel this may not work. though she could not help but think she had to do it all the same though. Taking in deep breaths she tried to enter her inner world. knowing it was risky on many grounds she felt she could do this as a way to attempt to figure things out. She was slightly worried about those around her but she decided this was more important. She could not help but worry that if this did not work she herself may only add to the problem that those around her were facing.

Thu Nov 28, 2013 1:16 am

Firestar was ready to fight Natalia but the girl was running away like a damn coward this was way too easy but she thought it was wrong. A true warrior doesn't run away from a fight and this woman was running away, Firestar was going to pursue and toast her like a big marshmellow. But some caught her attention an attack was coming her way which she managed to dodge but the attack actually hit her something unexpected. Some strains of her hair were cut...

"Whoa close shave omigod, I can't believe it that attack cut some of my lovely hair??? Whoever did this is going to pay with their life but if my master decides otherwise then I guess I spare the asshole life after I kick the person's ass" Firestar thought.

Firestar didn't realize but she was attacked by someone this really was pissing her off wondering who the hell had enough balls to do such a thing. She didn't dodge the attack but she was hit by it wondering who the hell it was but looking at the face of the person who had such nerve to show his master disrespect. Firestar was thinking how dare a person talk to his master like that which such calmness in his heart that thing should be torn out. She was more focused on Tsumi then Tessa but she didn't care about her hair for the most part her hair could grow back being a part of her master. Xathis was looking at Tessa too nodding to Firestar to take her down if possible or hold her off long enough for him to deal the fatal blow. Firestar bowed to her master looking at her target it seemed like she was going to deal with the asshole who nearly trim her hair after all. "WHOEVER YOU ARE....THAT WAS A BIG MISTAKE ON YOUR PART" He yelled. Tessa attacked him hard in the chest with his lightning powers defended some of the attack before her second attack. Xathis managed to punch Tessa hard in her darn face as her flame shot hits her shoulder as the iramasha was growling from the attack because of the pain. He pointed at Tessa attempting to show her his true level of anger using his dark power to upgrade his power then firing a deadly lightning bomb. He blasted her hard then focusing his attention on Tsumi thinking of an battle plan of defeating this fool and looking good doing it.

Xathis Iramasha was looking at Tsumi thinking he could take him easily in his final form easily but their was another problem coming. With his sensing powers, Xathis sensed someone was coming but he didn't know who it was yet maybe he'll need to deal with Tsumi first and then this other threat. "Now where were we......Oh yeah, After being so rudely interrupted you doubt me shinigami...You should never do that because I'm one part of a deadly threat....My brother you know and everybody else knows him as Eric Zarathos...well allow me to introduce myself...I am Xathis Zarathos the mad iramasha" He said. He fired a massive super lightning blast at Tsumi at close range causing an massive explosion hoping that he ht his target with bloody results.

Blinking, he saw the change of Tessa and stood there for a moment as he pondered how he did not notice this, then realized that when they were sparing, she never showed it. However, he should have realized, that she could do more, from her wings and how she seemed to have the ability to use fire more efficiently. However, the thought was out of his mind, as he saw the cone of fire that she released.

Corgan looked and moved out of the way of the blast from Tessa and thought for a moment, as he spoke. "It seems that our ability to use Kido and other spiritual energy abilities have been nullified," he states as he looks at his two barriers. Thinking, he stands up and looks around, "All fighting will be based on skill more than what one can do with with spiritual energy," and he studies those near him.

However, before he is able to do any more thinking, an attacker heads from him as he spots the man with his eyes. Thinking on instinct, he readies his Zanpakutō and holds it up to block the attack. However, at the last moment, he steps out of the way, by spinning on his hills, putting him i essence behind and to the side of the attacker with the axe. As he spins, he pulls his Zanpakutō in a way to stab the attackers back/side with the tip. Next, he does something that will cause some pain and damage. "Nami-sui no hebi o motarasu Mizu Sairen Hebi (Bring forth the waves Water Siren Serpent)" he states as his Zanpakutō changes and Corgan releases his Shikai.

Corgan's Katana, changes to this while in the man's body. As soon as that is done, Corgan pushes the blade deeper, then pulls across, hoping to pull the blade out not by the wya it entered, but slicing the man's back open.

Due to this attack, Corgan is not guarding Natalia and Tsumi who are working on speaking to their Zanpakutō's, so now he has two allies that are open as far as he knows. Therefore, he is going to take out this opponent and go on the guard of the two from any more attackers.

	Tsumi and his Zanpakutō finished their conversation, having become relatively good friends with the Zanpakutō spirit. And, on top of this, he had learned his Zanpakutō’s name: “Senshoku Tamashi”. However, everything suddenly became fuzzy and disorienting, as he felt himself being drawn out of his inner world. His eyes opened suddenly, just in time to witness the kido around him begin to deteriorate. Thankfully, due to it being a large, swirling mass of pure energy, it was gonna take a few seconds for it to be negated completely. Tsumi would gladly use this advantage. He didn’t even bother to stand up- he couldn’t afford to take that time. He merely stated “It’s time to get serious…Senshoku Tamashi.” Suddenly, there was pain. A shooting pain, which centered itself in two spots, on the inward side of his shoulder blades. He wanted to scream, but his brain wouldn’t put the effort in. It was too busy seizing up his lungs. Looking down, between blurs of his vision, he could see that his wrist-blades had disappeared, along with the sword that he was holding, the Rose and Thorn. His right hand, which had previously held his sword, had distorted, and turned pure black. The blackness began to spread up his arm, overtaking half of his body, and turning his eye to a demonic red. His hair had also turned pitch black, though white streaks still remained. To top it all off, a loud ‘CRACK’ could be heard, at least, by those who were inside the fading kido. Wing-bones had shot out of his back, and black fire was accumulating on them, fueled by Reiatsu. Tsumi stood, more confident than ever. The pain had faded, and was replaced with a sense of connection. However, it was not meant to be. The kido that had surrounded Tsumi, and protected him from the spirit-draining effect before had now faded almost completely, the effect now leaking inside. Tsumi’s spiritual abilities could not withstand this onslaught- his release began to fade. However, he was still in the middle of transformation. Thus, an adverse effect was given to poor Tsumi. The fire faded from Tsumi’s wings, and the black skin effect retreated, now only affecting his right arm. The black hair stayed, though instead of white streaks, Tsumi now had red streaks in his hair. The pigment in his eyes swirled, taking the shape of clocks. His claw still remained, though his Rose and Thorn was gone. Although, a new sword had replaced it, though he could feel no spiritual output from it. As long as this spiritual drain was around, his Zanpakutō would function only as a basic weapon. Tsumi experimentally attempted to revert back to his sheathed form- he could not. The spiritual drain had permanently trapped him in a deformed Shikai. His confidence had greatly diminished, though he still had his same aura of childlike optimism about him. However, while lost in thought, two Monsuta members had gotten relatively close. One of them had been parried by a friendly Shinigami, so he only had to worry about one of them. Perfect. He dodged the incoming Monsuta’s strike, his general movement speed and reaction time both having been doubled by his transformation. He attempted a running counter at the Monsuta, while the enemy was still in recoil from the initial miss, aiming at the Monsuta’s mask with his claw. This would do some heavy damage, as his claw had the same cutting power as the sword he had absorbed, the Rose and Thorn. The Rose and Thorn had the ability to cut through diamond- this was gonna hurt. Should the Monsuta have attempted a second swing, Tsumi would merely block it, using his wing-bones. Regardless of whether he was successful or not, he would offhandedly listen to the Iramasha. "Now, where were we......Oh yeah, After being so rudely interrupted, you doubt me Shinigami...You should never do that, because I'm one part of a deadly threat....My brother you know and everybody else knows him as Eric Zarathos...well allow me to introduce myself...I am Xathis Zarathos, the mad Iramasha." ….Was that supposed to mean something? Tsumi didn’t know. However, he could see that the Iramasha was raising his arm, presumably to do something hurtful. He stowed his Zanpakutō, jumping up onto the shoulder of the Monsuta who had hit him, and grabbing the Shinigami who had protected him. Following this, he kicking off of the Monsuta’s shoulder, during which his eyes briefly flashed green, as he, during his jump, raked his claws along the Monsuta’s neck. He jumped with the Shinigami, kicking off of the Monsuta as if he were a wall in a swimming pool, and glided to safety, feeling the shockwave of Xathis’ lightning bolt. He had just barely gotten out of range- he didn’t have many close calls left in him. He rounded a corner, and ran inside a particularly large building, using it as cover, and began plotting his next course of action.

His Released Zanpakutō:

Sat Dec 14, 2013 9:52 pm

Tessa seemed unfazed by the punch that the iramasha had thrown at her, though it was fairly obvious that there had been some damage inflicted upon her by it. In truth, her rage was blocking out the pain she felt, her personality gone and only the anger of a dragon remained. Then Xathis seemed to point at her as she raised her head towards the sky, the attempted lightning bomb failing miserably for the same reason that the kido of the shinigami had. A bloodthirsty roar escaped the mouth of the dragon girl, reverberating within the city. With that her eyes locked on to Corgan, a dangerous gleam in their depths. A quick shunpo takes her next to him, smoke pouring from Tessa’s nostrils, her face only inches from his. Her claws lashed out at his chest as another cone of flames blasted from her mouth, the dragon’s destructive rage no longer focused on Xathis. Now it was directed at everyone and anyone, the dragon wanted nothing more than to kill and destroy, and that was what it would do unless stopped.

Following this act of draconic fury, Tessa flash stepped in front of Firestar, her hand shooting out to grab around the being’s neck. If she succeeded another burst of fire would leave her mouth, aimed directly at where her hand had grabbed. Following this she would throw the woman aside, not caring whether she had lived or died following the attack. Tessa’s breathing was heavy though, even in this strange state it had been draining for her. Still she did not stop, flash stepping in front of the monsuta leader, her hand slicing forward towards his chest, aiming to stab straight through his heart with her claws. If she was successful she would fling his body off her arm before turning to face her next target, tsumi. A low growl came from her throat as she looked at his new form, but she did not attack. She watched him like a predator watching their prey, but the gleam that had been in her eyes with her previous attacks had died down a bit. Smoke furled from her nostrils, warning that she was soon to breath fire, but still she did not close in. For now she stood there, staring at the strange shinigami as if she was in a trance.

((OOC: sorry I took so long all, I've been having trouble getting posts done so I hope you can forgive me. I hope you guys enjoyed this one though, and yes, Tessa is attacking shinigami. Seeing as she's lost her mind right now, you'd better have care if you approach her.))

Unknown

It seemed that the battle that engulfed Darwin was a bit spread out for just him to deal with all alone. The environment around him felt a little bit odd as he realized a person that was at a distance for a moment and before his face at another with fiery eyes that bewildered him and caused him to take a step back from where he was originally standing as he tried to catch himself as enemies approached him. from the side at first. It was a rather annoying occurrence as he focused in on the situation and motioned his tow blades to act accordingly. As the strike came upon him, he moved one of the two blades on his left side to clash with the first shinigami and find his right one clash and hopefully push back the second one for a second as Shade would use his strength to push off the first one's blade and using the turning that he did to move his blades to take upon the opponents both coming to his right, he picked up his right leg and tried to kick into the shinigami's side with a good amount of his power. focusing on the second shinigami, he burst forward increasing his speed with shadow movement to swiftly bring his blade to chop off the arm of the shinigami that held his Zanpakutō. Should this have been successful or not he would utilize his second blade and run the tip into the left side of the shinigami.

Stayed on his toes as he backed away a little and re-positioned himself as anyone would probably approach him, he released his sealing on abilities for the time being and allowed the powers of all present to be allowed, however the should have lost confidence in their abilities and as such should not be utilizing their abilities anymore. This would not be the last time that he would release the power back though. He also utilized this however to have a little push as he let the power back, a wind traveled away from him with the capabilities that should of kept the shinigami from continuing their advances for the moment as he spoke to all those that were present upon the battlefield. "You, enemies of the Monsuta, face me now for you will never get control over your abilities with me present, I am the cause of your current struggle, with me here, your goals and ambitions will rest in peace as I put you in the ground." He exclaimed.

He wanted all of the attention on him, as this would be time that Monsuta soldiers might utilize the timing and other things to their advantage, he was also curious how the enemies might react from the next statement that he would say, for he should of had all of the attention on him. "Members of the monsuta, I've restored your abilities, use them wisely." He stated and began laughing a little inside as he wasn't going to be the only victim of the mind.
