“What are you talking about? That last attack.. wasn’t even at full power.“ Animum would have started. her gaze shifting and becoming dull energy would concentrate and she wouldn’t even bother blocking the next blast. She had been so far enjoying the fight, taking it easy.. however now? As the green spear smashed into her body suddenly it would be stopped cold. She had taken far worst attacks fought foes that would make this man look like a speck of dust in the sea of a massive lonely world. So it would look like she was consumed from the blast, as it the pillar which seemed to grow had annihilated her completely. And yet .. and yet. In the midst of the fire and the brimstone, the eternal hell which lingered in her heart and the newest emotion.. the fear she had tasted. so what happened in the midst of that fire?.. Well in the burning of immense spiritual pressure, in the engulfing green fireball that seemed to punch yet another hole into the menos forest animum would be standing within the flames.
”My flesh.. my flesh is burning… amusing..” Animum seemed to register as her skin was being peeled back layer by layer. But she would have gripped her sword slowly while her body was being bolstered by the spiritual energy that was locked within her body. she’d think.. no .. not think. She’d smile slowly as she looked back into her hosts mind, the skills needed where there but the techniques which originally had been present wouldn’t be able to do the same thing. Instead, as her hand shifted she’d think about what she would need to break the flames to crush them. In a split second these thoughts raced through her head while her eyes comprehended the ominous witchy emerald glow that stained everything. So she’d go through .. thinking.. learning, and then a split second later she seemed to move starting first by using a movement that would seem to be just a simple slash against the raw flames of the energy blast.

Instead however it wouldn’t be normal, the cut would have been extremely quick using force and power to shear through the flames which had expanded upwards sending it outwards like a meteor shower, or some kind of volcanic debris. falling in every direction lightning up the hellish battlefield she’d hear the words of the second individual and she eventually put two and two together, that the new comer had tried to get a suprise shot in on her, oh and she’d grin from that. She’d look like a girl who had just won the lottery even tho she was being lit up like a chrismas tree. With some sweat trickling then down her face she’d swing the blade around on its original trajectory however, her eyes widened sensing something behind, her the other ulquiorra was coming in fast.. and she wasn’t in the best position to take a blow to the back but she also wasn’t in a position to take a direct blow from the other infront of her.. so she jerked her other arm around quickly using internally controlled spirituall energy to harden her arm to the point that the wound that was left instead of severing her in two peices had only left a minor cut that began to bleed moderately.

However then she would have moved, her body vanishing quickly with such adrenaline in her veins she couldn’t back down. No instead her wings would jerk out launching towards the fake ulquiorra at high speed with enough force that it would be like being hit by a 10 ton brick flying at possibly 200 miles an hour. However she herself had spun quickly and grinned towards this new foe eyes narrowing into pin-pricks of interest glee, lust and the need to crush, to sever this swine and send him to his maker. Her sword would move at speeds which would make it seem like teleportation, concentrating immense amounts of force behind the quick sword-strike. The first blow glancing hopefully off the originals sword with a spark of metal on metal while she instead would hit air, as behind her a green cero oscuras would be launched at high speeds and she’d get around in time to see it, then notice the one below her at the same time and she’d get pegged by both her wings recoiling around her body abruptly, hardening into a shell as impact took place , the two explosions burning into her wings and causing some pretty extensive damage.

In fact this damage would have blown into her wings causing them to rip and shred rapidly from the friction and the force that was generally present, she’d find massive burns forming across her body which she’d quench using energy from her body which would harden eventually however. . that wasn’t all though. Instead she would have smashed directly into the ground from the shockwave the force literally punching a hole through into menos forest, a hole which she’d plumit into, tumbling and falling while her energy seemed to be shifting, she wasn’t able to fire things externally, and her energy was building up inside, blood was welling up .. so much energy was welling up from the blows externally and the energy building up internally. Although then she’d find her mind slipping and she would feel her vision blurring, she wasn’t in good shape, and yet she wasn’t in the worst shape of her life either, no instead? As her body fell she’d think about these cretin.. what they where doing, and how they where doing it.. and she’d shift her eyes narrowing like slits wounds burning and sizzling with internal electricity as her newer form broke apart at the seams golden hair returning. If she couldn’t use spiritual energy she was going to use electrical energy and tear them a new asshole.

[change music here please]

At this point she would have let out a roar, one that would have exclipsed every single thing, around the same time, the ground would be trembling, with immense force electricity exploding throughout the sands causing these sands to be utterly blown away, then using her immense intellect and computative capacity she turned the electricity into a breathable form, it would shift, change. grow and become more substantial with every second it would grow arms and legs, and be given shape and force all her anger went into it, all of her interest in this fight went into it. but thats about where she lost it, the beast shattering and turning into a pure manipulative storm , ripping the sands up and funneling them into a massive spiral, she wasn’t done with these individuals oh no she wasn’t done by a long shot. Unnatural clouds would increase covering every inch of the sky for miles around so what would she do after lightning bolts began raining in abundance? Well shifting rapidly she had formed from her hand a pure electrical thunderbolt containing millions of volts of current within it a bolt which she’d throw rapidly as her aura separated back into red and blue.

”..Think think you can do this, Damn.. this is tough im going to be on the defensive for now.. so.. “

Animum would have smirked as she then rapidly using lightning whipped up a storm and thats where the interesting thing would happen . as her body shifted and launched forward she’d suddenly seem to multiply several clones of lightning forming from the energy which had been dispersed, manipulating matter with electrons in mind, she didn’t essentially make just mere clones of electricity no instead she made bone-a-fied copies of herself down to the flesh and the bone, these things would begin moving at high speed vanishing throughout the thrall of the bellowing sand storm. each one however would be moving quickly without spiritual energy, instead riding on the electrical currents. As such they wouldn’t be able to use spiritual attacks and merely had electrical manipulation abilities and physical abilities in conjunction with one another. Essentially they could be considered “copies “ they didn’t require spiritual energy to control instead running off fine control of electricity flowing within their bodies, Acting as an extension of her body for the time being.

copy one would have shifted and moved to the east afterwards maintaining high velocity and speed while moving in the same manner as the others but quickly it would change course and shift so that it would be able to launch out of the storm the others which where spiritually untracable had quickly regrouped forming around the vicinity of animum’s real body a very tight circle which would allow them to serve as her shields, the only problem though of this being, that if they where butchered ? Well in such a case she would share the pain that they would feel, this was very much a risky gambler, she hadn’t wanted to do it just because she’d have to experience pain from each and every one of those damned clones. That was something that even Animum wasn’t quite ready to deal with just yet. However she was outclassed while her energy was stagnate, she wouldn’t be able to utilize the energy properly and she also wouldn’t be able to utilize her mask properly. In fact entering her mask in this kind of state would surely cause her death. . . so she needed two turns to recover This was the real probem she was facing, she didn’t want to die, and she was drawing blanks, blanks ablanks everywhere.

So instead of letting her own self fight, she shifted and brought her hands out, shifting her mind spreading out her senses, enveloping a wide radius, and testing experimental method of fighting so that she would be able to even begin to even the odds between these two beasts. Man.. she had her head caught up her ass, and she didn’t even want to think about how hard it was about to get from then on. So while she was exhaling, she’d bring her wings around her own body tightening her wings and leaving 5 of the clones of herself to surround her body. The other two clones had appeared from the dust and the sands and hovered, one facing each of the ulquiorra’s ready and wary.. waiting to see what their moves would be.

”AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH DKFJDFLKDSJFSDLFJKDLFJSDLFKSJFSLDKFJDLSJ OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW..!
Animum practically screamed as her body twitched and the pain, all the clones pain seemed to change to condense yes as her clones had been blown to shreds she felt it, the pain their pain. She was onslaught with the pain of several deaths at one nano-second all the pain experienced increased atleast a hundred fold. Such pain was dehabilitating, it was like when her predecessor endured the memories of the rosary of despair. It broke her, it brought her to her knee’s and she began to twitch from the pain, eyes completely white drool dripping from her mouth, she was in such pain .. to the point that she didn’t think that it was possible to feel any more pain then what she was currently feeling. She felt the burning, that was engulfing the clones slowly as they burned to cinder she hadn’t been able to protect them, she hadn’t been able to do a damned thing. But that shock did something else, as the energy ate at her, it would begin eating away at the top layer of her skin, However within that black ball she had begun to shift and stir, a pulsation of electrons going through the abyss the voidlike energy which sought to oppress her that ate at her very mind, her being, who she was. Prior she hadn’t been able to handle it, and because of that she had ended up in this sorry state. All their memories lingered in her mind, in her body.

She would be caught right in the middle of it, as the ball compressed more and more. Not moving just thinking, her energy becoming easier and more under her control as she exherted this frustration in herself, this inward disgust. She put it into controlling her berserk like here, making it so that she could use it properly, so that she could manipulate it. She .. was angry. she had the snot so far beaten out of her. She had been outclassed and she was still shaken by the pain of dying that she had endured. So she would slowly begin to close off the emotions she had been building up to this point, shutting each one down in their tracks. What did they matter anyways, she only wanted to break these beings, these sniveling worms which seemed to be fighting in their strengthened states. She wasn’t going to go down without showing them what they had awakened, what monster they had brought forth from her very heart. The ball would have condensed further and she would have shifted and thought in her mind. ”...I don’t care anymore, its time.. i will break and take and then destroy them all together.. let them tremble.. “ I have no option now, its either i cease to exist, or become stronger to deal with.. and destroy these two. she would be shifting now, as then she felt it the energy increase.

The energy would increase three fold from the likes of both ulquiorra’s and she would slowly have let out a laugh she was falling, and falling. and she would continue laughing as the ground seemed to buckle, the clouds seemed to begin to rumble and a crater would form even before the huge blast from the two ulquiorra’s had even hit the ground. It was immense massive, insane and absurd, this blast was beginning to near the ground where electricity crackled. The air was charged with nothing but ozone. It was like a massive meteorite about to slam into the ground. An attack of such strength hadn’t been seen in huecomundo since the great sage himself had created the moon all those years ago, yes that was how powerful the attack those two ulquiorra’s had sent was. So why why was she laughing? Well.. as she stood there, her energy which had returned.. enough.. seemed to be shifting rapidly. A darkness of sorts forming around her skin, an aura which would begin to decay and warp the very fabric of the reality around her, distorting.. beginning to contort, as if stuck in an endless cycle.. Next the demonic traces of her energy would begin to flourish, even as the blast seemed to increase further and further in power, growing.. warping.. and destroying the heavens themselves , until however her hand shifted to the side. . . Her expression being one that was completely empty.

“ Foolish.”

Animum seemed to just stand there as around her body it seemed as if everything was being repulsed, absolutely everything was being repulsed without distinction. as if an endless void had been conjured to the midst of the fight. The energy would cause a domino affect the blast unsettling expanding then exploding in pillars of flame that would decimate the landscape as far as the eye could see, holes smoldering flame, all of it would be lingering outwards in every possible direction, while her electricity equivalent to the energy of both a 0-2-- tier and a 0-4 tier combined had begun to stagnate reversing internally back into her wings which seemed to spread outwards even with that dark aura enshrouding her entire body. Her void energy was manifesting and because of that she would seem to merely look up unable to even touch the ground as if someone would focus they would see that, all matter was being torn asunder, reduced to nothing a bud was growing on her head at the same time, the demonic energy felt earlier increasing as she began to tap into her link to despair, all this power flowing and ebbing through her would seem to rapidly begin shifting and changing in response to the massive powerhike the other two had been experiencing, as they stood there she hadn’t even looked up, not aknowledging either one of the verses as she merely vanished, she didn’t use high speed transportation, she didn’t teleport. She just seemed to vanish by going through a rift in reality.

Reappearing she had merely landed in the air between the twin verse ulquiorra’s her hands shifting outwards as yet again another repulsive wave one that threw out all matter in 50 feet and created a place void of any matter other than herself had formed. The immense shockwave of it being enough probably to throw both of those ulquiorra’s back like ragdolls while she had merely stood there her eyes narrowing slowly before she had raised her arms electricity exploding in every direction causing two massive sand built hands to jerk from the ground and smash into both verse ulquiorra’s while animum paused slowly her own demeanor now pretty much a mirroring of the sullen stoic nature that was ulquiorra, she’d just stand there. Floating upside-down as if they had become reflections of one another. Floating in the midst of the rumbling flames that seemed to be reaching for the very skies. As Animum looked forth she didn’t see something as sad as a empty shell, no instead she noticed the dark agony and the emptiness that was a part of ulquiorra’s being. In fact as she looked the only thought she had going through her mind was ”..Such sad eyes.. does he look upon the world with contempt with those eyes. “ She would have remained there her own aura of the void lingering like the rippling reflection of this opponents very soul. She didn’t see a beast now that she had calmed down. No she saw herself and how she used to be before she had all her own experiences, all her own mistakes and her victories. So as she stood there and looked onwards she seemed to be compelled to ask as if by some unknown force.

”..Such Sadness. . . Such contempt for the world. . . Is this really what you have sought? To use others as sacrificial pawns in this land of endless night. Trapped within the desolate sands that give only hatred and remorse, rather then love and envy? I take it that you have no regrets with your decision here? That there is no alternate option for either of us at this point? . . . Don’t regret it.. Don’t run …You have woken me up the pain that death brings is.. able to wake almost anyone up from naive dreams so don’t hate me. Don’t fear me, but know.. this is the path you have.. “

Animum seemed to have a sad look in her eyes an empty look. . As if she was no longer seeing him.. only what would come after. She’d vanish at speeds which would be nearly instantaneous, she had gathered and accelerated herself to the point that there wouldn’t be intense heat, but there would be spontaneous flash freezing on the sands as she shot by. Frozen because the speed had long since become greater than the friction present causing the heat generated to be vastly outshown by the cold of the rushing wind that seemed to lag behind in the negative space her flying body had created. Truly she had dug into the very depths of her mind and amplified her speed a thin layer of void energy merging with her skin to keep her body from instantaneously vaporizing . So at speeds that would make even time seem like it had been put at a standstill her body had shot forward skimming across the sands at rates that let her watch separate molecules freeze over at speeds that a mere instant had seemed for her to have stretched for an eternity. Verse ulquiorra’s individual muscle spasms would have been all but laid out for her enjoyment.

It would have only been a matter of while he moved to position her arm in place to amplify the decay and turn electricity into a fine scalpel, one strong enough that it would have completely split through the thick storm of verse ulquiorra’s energy, cutting through it like it was just mere butter , and at the same time causing Animum’s own arm to smolder and hiss. She would have then brought her hand forward and down at such rates that all her attacks would seem to blend into a single attack. The first motion would have hit through the hole in the center of the verses chest, tearing downwards neatly severing individual particles in half as it made its way through hierro , organ and bone if it hit atleast. cutting him cleanly in half. Then at speeds that froze even the blood her hand would pull out of the wound and strike again this time horizontally cleaving through the navel area completely through the waist and out the otherside. Moving to the third slice which would be shifting upwards traveling through the left shoulder and down meeting the second cuts entry point severing bone and organ shifting upwards to cut through the right shouderblade in the fourth cut, severing the skull in half diagonally from the right eye to the left ear. Not even pausing as her hand would transition to the fifth cut shifting downwards from the left eye down to the collarbone and going down through his legs to exit out of his foot. Reversing from the fifth to the sixth her hand would cleave through the ankles lopping verse ulquiorra’s feet off snapping through bone and sinew like it was merely paper being hit by a katana.

Next her hand would shift in two quick bursts the seventh and eight cuts severing the feet in half, the next two cuts severing the legs from the knee’s down off. so that they would fall off and then two more cuts would be taken to split those two parts in half completely. Next moving up to sever the hands in two fluid movements, next came the pinky finger , after that the right index, then the left ring , flowing into the right thumb, and then the left ring, the right pinky. Then the palms, moving to the left wrist, splitting it horizontally in half, then the right wrist severing it diagonally in half. Moving from the elbow of the right arm to the left hip, sliding down and then moving from the right hip up to the left elbow. moving across from there to sever the neck from the body, moving straight down in a zigzag from there to chop the spinal cord into fine pieces moving back then to cut along the right arm straight down severing each cut in half, then the next cut would sever the head into fourths , the next dividing it into eight peices. Moving down to sever the arteries, and moving back to cut out the right kidney, reversing to then take out the left. As if the body was but a jigsaw puzzle and she was disassembling it in one fluid motion.

Next would come the secondary flash of heat destroying the capability to heal incinerating cells, and causing generally destruction. However next there would be the surge of electricity moving through the bodies water molecules electrocuting each severed part from the inside out. so that it would further prevent regeneration. So she would have at speeds that made time stand still smashed and severed ripped and shredded verse ulquiorra’s body into at least forty pieces before then she had raised her hand and formed an orb of void energy, covering up all her attacks so it looked like even to an highly trained eye that the actual attack hadn’t even happened yet. This orb would fire pointblank without warning, exploding outwards and devouring the sands entirely in a fifty foot radius. Before she would have paused and looked back up at the other ulquiorra her eyes remaining dim while then suddenly if the attack hit? There would be a massive flash freezing the sands within a mile turning to solid ice, the air dropping well below zero for that moment while the winds dispersed everywhere destroying the thunderclouds that had been stretching out in the distance. Putting out the fires and leaving behind an immense tremor while animum had shifted and moved her hand to the side the exterior layer of skin meant to stand up to multiple cero oscuras’s riddled with holes that showed torn and utterly decimated skin beneath infact her arm and body would be missing chunks of skin in multiple places that only now would be slowly healing. the void energy actually shifting and trembling as in that one second she had used up her entire void energy, and completely devoured her primary battery due to the sheer acceleration alone meaning she had used the equivalent of an 0-2--’s entire spiritual reserves worth of electricity to accelerate in that mere second. Not to mention she was also tapping into her spiritual energy now instead of electricity to mend her wounds. Showing that the instantaneous movement she had used was meant to be an all out attack with the intention to kill and shred the versed ulquiorra apart.

If nothing more than from her heavy breathing and the trembling in her legs as the adrenaline rush that had blasted through her system was beginning to abate. Even sweat was dripping down her face for the first time, showing that the force and the energy she was forced to expend in the fight was nothing short of her having to give everything she had. So while animum took inventory, she was internally cringing, because of the energy reserves that had been used. It was a humbling experience for her, she never had to gamble in a fight, it was all data no thought and just outcome. Never had she thought her life might be in danger. Not for a moment , however now?.. Even without being angered she had been taking risk after risk, having to invent and use her mind and wits to even an uphill battle. ”.Please.. just stay down, die.. and be gone, never return ..i thought i’d never say this, but please i beg of you be dead. “ Animum thought as she was standing there her lips parted as she let out a gasp. However she wasn’t done as her hand raised to the side she’d run electricity through her feet and brought it down within the next second as the surrounding 4 miles seemed to suddenly expand rapidly jerking inwards as she instead of moving through the medium of the spiritual energy that was lessening her electrical power, she had went through the individual atoms themselves. Draining half her secondary battery then she had rapidly in a movement that would cause an immense quake that would be felt for hundreds of miles around caused something frightening to happen.

Forced to do so she had brought the sand down rapidly, and it wouldn’t be like just one mere slamming attack, in a mile radius the spiritually undetectable sand had shot down like an immense sandblaster quadrillions of sand particles would have slammed downwards at speeds surpassing a thousand miles an hour, each one leading to a sonic boom while they crashed into the ground rapidly, and endless barrage that would cause crater after crater upon each individual grain hitting the sand in rapid fire order. It would literally cause the sands to jump in wave after wave of action, crashing over and over with the intent to do nothing short of shatter destroy and crush the versed ulquiorra into bits and pieces. to grind him to dust if he still was alive that was the entire plan. However she’d narrow her eyes then and brought her hand downwards speeding up the sand causing for the immense crushing to become even greater at this point, the individual grains becoming blades or weapons, ones that would continue to shatter the ground. However she wasn’t done yet no, as she then snapped the remaining particles seemed to rapidly slam together forming needles that would slam downwards, the particles electrons going out of whack causing the sand particles then to rapidly cool down so that they would flashfreeze upon impact leaving only a massive shell of ice behind one that would grow and grow until it was the size of a small mountain at least 4 miles in height and 3 miles in length this massive ice cube would tremble as the remaining sand smashed into it, caking on more and more until it looked like a single hill of sand standing within the embrace of the endless desert.

Then though she wasn’t finished yet, as she shifted manipulating the ice particles she’d magnetize the sand around the structure with the remaining half of her secondary battery generating an immense magnetic anomaly within the sands this would then begin pulling the electrons within the mountain apart, shredding rapidly and turning the entire mountain into nothing but steam, steam that would explode outwards within a second after while she would have let out an extremely deep breath her eyes shifting before she had moved vanishing rapidly across the sands her hand jerking upwards as she appeared in the midst of the sky a black glow lingering on her face. A glow that would be mirroring her energy rapidly rising, rising to the point that it would increase over a hundred fold at the very least, until it was a massive presence that was comparable to or stronger then ulquiorra’s at the moment, all that energy would explode outwards as from the veil of darkness a masked face would become painfully apparent, seeing as finally Animum had decided it was time to enter her masked state. She was ready to kick things up a notch. [/b]

”.. Worthless you say? You honestly think even for a moment i thought that would be enough to kill him?.. No.. as you see a tactician lays a scheme within a scheme. “ Animum had felt the air as it resisted, the power of the world as it fought her. However.. that was boring as her eyes seemed to return to the dullest state, she looked up and she seemed to feel a switch, with her hollowed energy with everything going on, with all of it .. she would have smiled slowly steam rising from her mouth, and her hand would raise. You see in her mind she had planned fifty steps ahead, no. a thousand steps ahead. This wasn’t a mere battle of wills it was a battle of tacticians, in fact.. she would have expected the first one to pull something from his ass.. and he had from there it was a matter of waiting it out.. getting him angry so he would do something stupid. That was when she would have smirked slowly when his hand slid suddenly from the garganta her sword jerked around in high speed motion, changing her spiritual frequency causing a negation effect against the energy being formed in ulquiorra’s hand, this would be followed by high density energy eating away at the green light that would come from his palm a split second later canceling it out while she seemed to not even smile.

Instead her grip would tighten in that split second on ulquiorra’s hand dragging him through and throwing him towards versed ulquiorra. One high speed movement that would have used his body possibly as a meat shield. If it missed she would have shifted vanishing suddenly having canceled out the green light, her body moving as the energy signature behind her seemed to reappear. The three lances would suddenly appear, however the fun thing was? As the three missed she’d reappear in time to bring her hand outwards jerking directly into the arm joint of ulquiorra’s versed form, from there she would have taken the cero point blank however the price of it from versed ulquiorra? Was that he would lose that entire arm in a second bone would be ripped apart, it would be completely ripped off from his body while she herself brought her foot up probably slamming it against the versed ulquiorra’s head and sending it flipping backwards. Finally her mask would seem to split uncharacteristically as she seemed to almost giggle,

She found this whole situation boring.. but how long had it been since she felt this way?.. She.. felt that this would be interesting.. Instead of wasting the arm she would have let her spiritual energy eat away at it, rendering it back to the dust it came from, her own gaze shifting forward to lock down on the real ulquiorra. Not even looking at the versed ulquiorra as she just stepped forward one foot after the other as this is when it appeared. That keen strange aura of hers.. usually lacking was beginning to evolve instead she’d look up and the killing intent would vanish. In that instant she’d feel it, the world the entire world opening up to her. Life and death battles paved the way to getting stronger. However this was different, instead of rage, amusement or plain hate she’d just begin to snicker snicker emptily while she stood there. But she’d also be slightly.. bored.. at this point, she wasn’t entirely.. well interested in someone who would use powers other than their own to fight, instead she would have shaken her head and brought her sword back to its sheath before she’d say calmly. ”..If you wish to prove you are stronger, then find me again when you are standing on your own merit. I will be waiting for you. However.. as you are now Ulquiorra. You aren’t worth the time. . . Ulquiorra copy, hone your pride, and get stronger between the two of you? You are the one who is actually still not beyond saving in my eyes. Do not become like an eyesore that would broker with a frightened child for power. I myself will get stronger as well, until then though have fun cleaning up the mess.”

Animum would have shifted then and let out a breath before she’d vanish entirely leaving this messed up realm for good.
