As Colors Fade to Gray [Lilynette, Rio, Hakuyou]

She knew she was too late by the time she'd even cleared where the Sereitei's wall had once been. A twinge of annoyance coursing through her body, but also a slow building pit in her chest as she saw that final burst of energy. A mesh and mold of energy that no doubt would evade the notice amongst all of the chaos.

When at long last, she arrived on the spot. The other Captain was nowhere to be seen. The locale had been devastated, and where once the roar of spirit energy and pain had made this place unbearable to inhabit, now hung an eerie and solemn silence.

She hardly made a sound as her boots landed on the broken earth, and with her good eye, Lilynette glanced down to what was left of the man that had almost taken her out from across the soul society. There wasn't any doubt or uncertainty. Some might wonder why the hell she was doing this. But Lilynette knew very well why she had. Shifting her frame, she lowered Rio's half-limp frame down onto the ground beside the man. The hole in her gut had stopped bleeding for the most part. And well, with how well the woman had taken a shot straight through her gut, she didn't imagine Rio would have lost consciousness during the journey.

She didn't offer any taunts or coy remarks. Nor did she say anything of comfort.
This was simply where Rio needed to be.
