Diving into the hells of war straight forward, nothing but a grim chuckle could emit from the mouth of Rose after receiving the warning from Dr.Hebi to not let these demon's consume her, devour her and throw her out to dry as she felt the string, the burn and the pain associated with the loss of her sister, Ashlei Clixx - The Hollow Queen.
'That's rather amusing that you were able to detect all these...unpleasant sensations through this private channel of ours. I s'pose it's written all over my face though, isn't it? Losing one you love so much...ahahaha.' Voice beginning to soften to an extent, the flashes of memory from the beginning of the Mischevang family played in her head. A happy childhood spent chasing after her sister, protecting her sibling, cherishing those sacred times she acknowledged her existence...and eventually her gruesome death at the cross by those....destructive humans.
Yes....musing over these memories, she remembers why there wasn't no remorse in carrying out this attack. It's true, Arrancar and Hollow's alike can be quite the sadistic, cruel and utterly disgusting beings. However, the root of their being is still from humanity. All of these creatures, no matter how far gone they've become, had their origins tied with humanity. So within the hearts of men, there breds nothing but callousness, cold-blooded vengeance and the burning desire to rip their fellow men piece by piece for even the slightest of difference, inadequacies or variances in strength. Remembering even her own death, she remembered burning in the fire, screaming for help and the sound of it reaching no ones ears as she descended from the brightened depths of life, into the cold abyss of hollowed nature on that very day so many years ago in the living world. So as she stands here, all that she is, the trigger at hand....feels so right.
Voice softening to the tone of which would be aghast at how the fiery Arrancar spoke, she began to continue onward with the dialogue in her towards Maddened DOctor.
'The aspiration to honor my sister's memory is there, but the wound is still so fresh. She was my world, she was my everything; without her, I believe I wouldn't have even bothered stepping forth from the confines of disillusioned world I crafted for myself deep within the confines of the virtual world like I did for so many tens of thousands of years. Yet, haaaa, haaaaaaaaaa..........' Visions of Rose's previous self, her weakened self, the self which ran from everything, the person which was frightened of all things, the timid, broken and discarded girl played in her mind. The heart of Ashlei drew her towards this realty like a hook casted out sea, and she remembered....it took strength to escape that hell. That escapism, that isolation, that complete and utter prison of the mind.
'.......I can't stop, can I? Hahahahahhaha.......as long as I have this burning sensation scorching the embers of my heart, mind and soul.....their too painful, too joyous, too deep, too beautiful for me to discard altogether, no?' Tightening the grip on her chest, The Primera Espada let out a long breath before biting upon her lips to show this intensity that she was burying deep within herself.
"But it's okay, I'm still here, that memory lives on within inside of me....and her will still flows through my veins. So I have to continue going on fighting, marching forward and carrying these bleeding heart of mine into the new world...haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa........" Eyes gleaming over with emotion, a single tear drop escaped Rose's face before she closed her eyes and used this anguish, this lost, these sensations and all of the thoughts associated with her despair to turn into strength, to morph into resolve and to carry out what she needed to do on this darkened day of war.
It was during these moments of darkness that a bright light radiated across Rose's body and the values of her spiritual energy began to alter. It felt lightweight, yet extremely heavy; timid, yet focused. And all the while, The Mischevang's massive reserves of shear strength could be felt for many miles outward; extending into other cities nearby. All else was a blur to her, mind moving faster than most on the battlefield could perceive; so when The Arrancar brought herself back to reality, she was greeted with a message from the likes of Clarie Clixx; letting out a slight happy laugh of sorts as she gripped her chest with more intensity, cried even harder and managed to let out a hard grin as steam escaped her mouth.
"....and I won't let you bring despair to my hope. The varying alterations between us point of view collide, the ideals which we stand upon clashes and the ever cliche battle of Hope VS Despair begins.....but you are so blinded by your own self that you fail to see that even us supposed "Bad guys" have our own hope, our own determination, our own will and something that drives us. Something that makes this worth fighting for, worth killing for and something certainly worth dying for. This sensation is new, it's utterly overwhelming; but I won't let you trample upon MY faith."Now a fire exiting her right eye, Rose let out an ungodly roar across the area. The likes of which shattered buildings, decimated the grounding around her, obliterated reishi around her and ignited a similar flame from her chest as the sounds of a maddening hum radiated from her body; tearing soon turning into nothing more but fired ashes in the wind.
"AND I WON'T LET ANYONE TAKE THAT FROM ME!"Slamming her fist into the ground, Rose started out with assaulting all of the millions of blanks that entered into the city.
'I'M OKAY, I'M OKAY! AS LONG I HAVE THIS FLAME, I WON'T LET IT DIE! I WON'T LET IT FIZZLE! I'LL USE THIS BLAZE INSIDE OF ME AS THE LIGHT I'VE SO DESPERATE SEEKED AND SHINE IT TO THE WORLD TO SET THE PATH BEFORE ME!'These weren't the thoughts of a desperate, maddened and deprived woman; rather, the thoughts of a woman who has found her way, remembered he cause and seeks to thrust this will into all that oppose her reality, reject her belief and question her ability. It hurt, it hurt so fucking much, but so had to repeat this, she had to do this and she had to use this to move on. There wasn't anytime left in the future to be that miserable shell of discarded emotion, abused mentality and forsaken memories.
Thoughts lining back into this hardened reality, her targets were these millions of blanks across the city. Devouring all of it's infrastructure within the energy of the URE Sphere within sky, she'd shield it's citizens, her allies on the battlefield and all around her in a protective glow that would make them immune from the attack she was going to unleash by constructing an altered force around them to block out the explosive force from the likes of herself or the memory rosaries; while leaving the fall impact for all of her enemies before her. For by sending her encrypted energies throughout the city, Rose let out louder battle cry and began systematically destroying the millions of blanks with her energy alone. Igniting it, devouring them and destroying the blanks each time her aura consumed it. Millions upon millions of bangs let loose across the city, yet not a single soul on the side Rose wishes to protect would be heard; while letting the screams of her foes be heard in the distance of this deafening roar.
"I care not what you are, what you represent nor who you came on the behalf of: but I'll tell you one thing - you are nothing more than an obstacle to be passed. I have within me the memories of sister, and I know very well who you are....and it makes me sick to believe you'd abandon my sister in her time of need. So if you show your face again in this city, I won't be showing you ANY mercy, you cowardice harlot. You aren't even strong enough to fight your own battles, to protect what is dear to your heart and even show your face to those on this battlefield staking everything they have for their memories, their desires, their loved ones and everything that makes them stronger than you." Echoing this message throughout the battlefield, she made sure this direct message would strike the nerve of Clarie Clixx as Rose let off a disgusted sucking of the teeth.
And before the likes of the overwhelming force of Zefonse could so much as phase through into this warfield, Rose's sensors already detected his movement, sensed his spiritual aura and knew he would be coming here. So when he made his explosive entrance, she wasn't phased in the slightest. Why wouldn't she be? She just made her vow, her stand and her resolve was hardened. Not even the threat of the supposed strongest presently living Arrancar detoured her from this state of mind.
"Don't even sweat the actions of such brats. We all have a few loose cannons within our teams; so it comes with the terrority. However, I sincerely doubt our forces will stop until these bastards stand down. I'm sure you can sense it. Everything in this war is bringing out the most within people's spirits, many lives are being thrown into the flame and to call THEIR effort fruitless is a futile sentiment in itself. I won't accept that statement in the slightest, as I can feel it....I can feel what everyone has put into making themselves strong for those they love, the dreams they share and the hopes they store within their heart. So, bearing that in mind, don't ever say such bullshit in my face again, Zefonse. I respect you too much to hear such statements exit that mouth of yours."Glancing at Zefonse's assault in the air, she'd only let out a half-chuckle before saying this:
"You know, even if you have destroyed that rock, she's going to rebuild a new one. Something like that isn't complicated to design, but who knows? Maybe she'll even fight you directly now. That wasn't the smartest of moves as now we won't know how the girl will respond to such hostile actions. I would have simply distorted the space around the object, null it's attacks and dismantle all of it's functions before resorting to such a brute force tactic if I were coming in the name of peace, balance and unification of souls."Shifting her focus, Rose simply shook her head as she was already on top of the likes of the spike shot off from Magnoila as she attempted to obliterate Nozomi utterly out of the range.
"No." Was all that she would say as The Primera Espada put in the counter-measures. Activating her mind's processor, the maddened mechanic let loose an extremely fortified shield in the vicinity where the spike would emerge; even if the Garganta somehow shifted on Magnolia's control, this force field would automatically be on top of it. Secured by hundreds of layers of defense, it would take the full brunt of the blow from the spike and obliterate itself and blocking any sort of damage or deflection from Nozomi.
"I'm not sure if you wanted me to protect you or not, Nozomi, but I'd feel like a lousy alley if I didn't do my part to shield my comrades. Now go rip her asshole apart." Speaking to the mysterious girl in the rock, Rose figured she could handle the rest from here as she was able to sense great power within her; strong enough to hold her own against the battle of supernatural freaks present.
Then.....BOOM!An explosion of light ignited all around the vicinity where Rose once stood. Fire, radioactivity and utter destruction engulf 1/4 of a mile as Jetta unleashed her vicious attack upon the The Primera Espada. It was an amazing show for some of the onlookers, but when the ashes of the smoke cleared....Rose still stood tall with only plumes of smoke smearing across her body and a very hardened stare. Just what in the world happened? It's very simple. The defensive attributes of Rose are so strong with her EHAV1, it was able to essentially tank the entirety of the blast without much harm done to The Royal Mischevang. A testament to the kind of opponent that Jetta was making herself be an enemy of if she could withstand an attack like that. As the many layers of defenses that comprised her Enhanced Hierro Armor Version One filtered out the radiation around her, while the frontal layers endured the extreme heat and destruction from the fire and temperatures associated with The Yuudeshi's assault.
"A blind rush from an opponent who hasn't a clue what she is doing is just pathetic. From the expression on your face, the movements of your actions and emotion behind your attacks; you don't even look like you know what you are fighting for in the slightest." Keeping track of the predictable range of movements associated with Jetta's attacked, before she could so much as intercept Dr.Hebi's space, Rose was already on top of it. Placing her hands forward, she typed in the coordinates needed i n her Origin Code to open up a dimensional gateway before her to devour and suck in the flames even if it tried to maneuver away from Rose. From there, potentially with the flames sealed inside of this gate, they would be devoured and taken to an unspecified location within the blink of an eye; ensuring to close the portal before Jetta could so much as do anything with it and leaving Dr.Hebi untouched.
"And you seem to be forgetting: You are up against the Primera Espada, one of the strongest Arrancar presently alive. Act more like it and don't rush your target with such an amateurish range of tactics. Otherwise, my resolve to power will utterly crush everything which you stand upon, everything you desire to protect and all that you hold sacred, you rash child." Glancing at the stationary flames outside of the garganta, Rose simply had a wall of her spiritual energy move towards it's location and bait the flames into attacking it head first; devouring them and outright destroying them in a clash of energy....which Rose won without a single contest due to the gap in power between the two girls.
"So get your head out of your ass and fight with your heart, Yuudeshi. You have hollow blood within you, don't disgrace by fighting like a child.""NOW COME!"With those words uttered out o her move, Rosse would appear to have sent a direct punch out at Jetta...if she didn't appear from the plank in order to deliver a hyperfast punch capable of obliterating a large portion of the city they were under with it's kinetic energy. If allowed to make a hit, it would even make a noticeable dent in the defenses The Flame of The Yuudeshi had out presently. This could show in the form of it's impact scattering across her entire body; from the cracking of her bones, to the rupturing her organs and lowering of her overall spiritual energy from the intensity in which Rose attacked her. She soon began using her first-class speed to began punching the amber-haired woman all throughout her body without any signs of stopping; from there she'd deliver a kick strong enough to send her flying backwards and out of the city if Jetta wasn't able to stop herself from all of the momentum Rose gathered from her speeds.
"HA!" Sending out a decimating wave of protected energy, Rose made sure to piece together this daunting cero to be filtered out from any alternative influences. Meaning, the only way to stop this attack would be not to control it or alter it, but to outright destroy it. Launching at speeds which would take Jetta's mind fail to register, Rose unleashed a cero with the strength rivaling that of a Grand Ray Cero....if it were shot off by one of the most powerful Arrancar living. If Rose had the intent to, she could obliterate a two mile radius with that single attack with ease, but instead chose to use it to fling Jetta like a ragdoll out of the city. Along with that, it had a hidden side-effect of embedding it's energies deep into Jetta's body to add the impact force from this overwhelming cero to obliterate her spiritual energy and cause further damage to take Jetta out of this fight if she could help it. After all, this is a battle with the Primera Espada.
She wouldn't be foolish enough to believe the battle was over, but something was gonna make a hit; so Rose then motioned for many of the cannons in the sky to begin firing down multiple shots down upon Jetta's being to further compound the damage and cement her in whatever spot she was in; encasing them within numerous layers of defenses to prevent them from easily being destroyed, manipulated or moved; while increasing it's offensive power by how dense these explosive blast were.
"Now stand down from us, or be crushed....your call."This voice would be announced to everyone on the opposing side of this war. Taking a soft breath, Rose would then direct some of the energy from the URE Sphere in the sky to ease the strain on her body from unleashing these attacks. There was much physical and mental energy being used in these, so Rose needed to keep it together as her muscles tightened, energy heavily monitored and she knew she may as well stand back on the offensive and defense until further evidence of the results of her attacks were made.
Through The Primera Espada's power, she certainly lowered the bang on this field and it was only just beginning. As the tides of war progressed further into this dark night, the light within Rose would only grow stronger in memory of her sister, in honor of her hopes and moving faster with the thoughts of these dreams.
The Primera Espada....was alive.
