Chaos In California [Closed]

Kimiko may have been hurt, but she wasn't going to allow herself to seem weak, not in front of her Captain, not ever. As she was falling, she forced herself to spin in the air and turn her body to land. Creating a temporary flooring before she hit the ground was what she had done. She looked up to get a good look at this enormous Hollow. It's entire body was taking up the alley. His body and his tails were covered in what seemed to be the same material it's mask was actually made out of. "It's going to be hard to get through that... especially when we have to make sure this Hollow doesn't cause any civilian deaths. It's already done enough damage to the buildings around us." Leaping into the air, she returned to the level at which the Hollow's main body was at. Remember that this is a scorpion, it's tails aren't it's only weapon. As Captain Crow went forward to attack it, it decided it was time to raise it's claws through the flooring of the building, which would cause anyone standing on it to loose balance and fall OR attempt to run away to find better flooring. It was time for Kimiko to follow orders.

"Impair their senses, Kasumizu!" She said and immediately a very, VERY thick mist covered the entire area that they were in. Reaching fifty feet below them and fifty feet above their current position. The mist also moved out in a mile diameter around the area, making it where people could only see up to eight feet in front of their own faces. Kimiko's eyes began to glow, shining with multiple colors. Her eyes allowed her to see through the mist, buildings, people, and everything alike. Right now, her only concentration was this Hollow, so the mist was what she was seeing through. Unfortunately, this would even impair Captain Crows vision, sense of smell, and touch as well. The only thing it didn't effect on her opponents was their hearing. "All right Captain Crow... Now what exactly is your plan with this?" She thought, since he was the one who ordered her to 'make everything wet'.

Jaeden didn't need his eyes, his hearing sense was above average to the extremes because of the style. The dragon hit the water, the lighting had sparked an electrical current that would lead straight towards the creature. Jaeden's electrical attack plus the water would easily damage it, if the creature was wet. the Lighting would do the rest, Jaeden was a sharp mind able to fight without those senses her Zanpakutō took away. Though the sense of touch was somewhat important that he lost, he could do without it he guessed. Gripping his sword he smirked now as those eyes slowly closed, making himself blind on purpose here. In truth when Jaeden's eyes closed he was at his strongest, Jaeden's family style required the user to close their eyes. No methods made thus far had been devised, the creature was still quite loud and easy to find it's place. However Jaeden sent surging bolts of lighting at the water that was dampening the ground and the creature from his body as he charged, he was ready to fight.

Zanjutsu was an art and his Division were the masters of it. Each had their own style. "We are the perfect team my dear Kimkio, for your Zanpakutō plays into my strengths. Let's show him that Squad 8 is not to be taken lightly, broken and battered or not, we are warriors..Should remind me to repay you later." Jaeden wondered when she would press this, he wasn't letting up on the creature. Finding it's direction was easy, being trained without eye sight as a child had been a habit built up till now. Rushing forward, towards it he made a slash towards the left claw. In truth the cut was going to be at the mask, this illusion style had begun since the eyes of Crow had closed.

Kimiko wasn't aware of Captain Crow's lightning ability. She had no idea what was about to happen. Anyone who understood what happened when lightening moved through water would realize that it's not the best idea to shoot a lightning bolt out. Yes, Captain Crow was immune to it, but Kimiko was NOT. She just barely saw the spark that Captain Crow was sending towards the scorpion. "WA- AAAAAAAAHHHHH!" She attempted to stop him, but it happened a little too fast. Kimiko's scream of pain and horror echoed loudly through out the entire area. People of the city who could see spirits would be able to hear her scream. No, it was more of a terrifying shriek. Her skin was being burnt badly. The inside of her body was on fire. It felt like she was being attacked forever, although it was less than a few seconds. Once the lightning stopped, she was stuck there in mid air, smoke literally floating off of her body. For a while, her eyes stayed open. The rainbow color in her eyes faded away and they returned to their normal brown. The mist around them subsided, everything returning to normal as she shikai was automatically sealed once more. Her eyes were closed and she fell unconscious, her body falling forward, plummeting to the alleyway below them.

Jaeden had been a bit surprised, but it the Zanpakutō had done the trick, he wasn't thinking he'd been too busy thinking about her and the time spent. Jaeden hadn't known about the damage it could do, he wasn't aware of the eyes though. He heard the scream and that was what brought him too. He rushed over, catching her, he kissed her on the lips softly before whispering into her ear I am sorry over and over, he'd not known that his sword power would effect her. Though truly this was what made him a being, Crow could make mistakes like anyone else. Having done his best, he attempted to hold on to her. Lifting the girl up, he drained whatever lighting had remained in her body. For most charges would remain even though he'd been there. Using a shunpo he moved to a safer base with a special barrier around it.

The barrier would give them a very firm warning when the others came into the area. It had been sent up like a net, designed to go off and shoot warnings when the next thing that came past came in. Jaeden wasn't sure what else he could do, he had stronger healing spells but they took time and would require him to move. He'd slowly been falling in love with Kimkio, he'd lost himself in emotion. The touch of his lips to hers was giving her a bit of his power to help her keep alive. Moving in to the next hide out, this time one his family owned. Crow members were there to greet them upon arrival. He'd carried her piggie back this time around to move quicker.

Kimiko's body had practically fallen into her Captains arms. Her Zanpakutō was slowly slipping from her hand, obviously she was unable to continue holding on to it. This woman was in very bad shape. She was unconscious. She did not feel the kiss, nor did she hear the sorry's he spoke to her. Her body was limp in his arms, burning. Inside and out, she was damaged badly. Not many could survive a lightning attack like that, especially from a Captain that was currently at full power. It was definitely a question that needed to be answered. Would she survive such an attack? Only time would be able to tell this. She was breathing extremely heavy. With any move that her body would make, a small whimper will be heard coming from the injured woman. The pain she felt was immense. A broken leg and now being struck by lightning. The fact that she was still living was more than likely a miracle. She definitely had luck on her side.

Jaeden had arrived, a white haired boy had come to him looking at the female with a somewhat dark gaze. It appeared he was well aware of the fact that something had happened, his eyes appeared to be empty in Jaeden's mind. He didn't seemed to get what was going on here, Jaeden wasn't sure why this man known as Ryu was out here. But he looked over her injuries, pulling his sword out. The boy seemed to be drawing energy. White flames of the sword seemed to surround them, covering both. The flames didn't feel warm or cold, it was strange but Jaeden could feel strength returning. The white fire wrapped around them both, Jaeden wasn't sure why but this felt good for some reason. His eyes lowered it appeared that Kimiko was healing. Jaeden't had been reckless and he could hear the boy call him a fool but couldn't find him. The child had vanished, having used his fire to heal the body of Kimiko. Down to her leg, his Zanpakutō had cleansed them of injuries. How long would it be before Kimiko came to life, Jaeden had a new found dislike of Seiryu.

He'd been certain to grab her sword he was holding on to it and still muttering the words I am sorry. Blood was trickling on his hand that was the only injury that Ryu could really heal. The boy had looked them over for a moment before releasing his sword, hadn't taken but several seconds of the white flames to cure them of the pain they were in. His strength and power in such a field were what gave him power and strength in many ways. Ryu had left the scene before either one could know what had happened, his time was short among them for he had other things. Jaeden looked around, he was rather confused as to why the little boy had aided them to begin with, it was strange all together. Healers from his family began treating what injuries remained. Jaeden had clutched on to Kimiko in piggie back softly not letting her go just yet.

Spoiler:

It had been a good twenty four hours and Kimiko had still not waken up. Although she was healed by some strange boy, unknown to her, her body had been tired out. Now it was the next day and finally her eyes fluttered open to stare at the ceiling of some room. She didn't recognize it or anything that was around her. She wasn't able to tell whether someone was in the room with her or not either. She still felt dazed and slightly out of it. She was light headed as well. She pushed herself up into a sitting position and set her hand on her forehead. "Ow... What the heck happened?" She thought back to the night before. She remembered the Hollow attack and then falling down out of the building. Captain Crow was there and she activated her shikai. Neither of them knew that his Zanpakutō would affect her and she was badly hurt. She shook her head, shuddering at the thought of the night before. It was surprising that she had lived through that, but through some miracle she really was still alive. She took in a deep breath and looked around the room, trying to sense who all was in the area and if she recognized any of them that were there.

The female's hand had been moved from Jaeden's he'd fallen asleep holding her hand and sitting up, it had pry been very uncomfortable. But this showed Jaeden's level of concern for her. His desire for her to make it to the next level of things. His eyes hadn't oped a coat was put around him, several of his staff and servants came in, bringing in tea and other food for her. They glanced at the sleeping Jaeden, having fallen asleep sitting up and holding Kimiko's hand. His grasp never released the females digits. His eyes remained shut, dreams lingered of his mistake. Not knowing that his sword would effect her was a big blunder on his part, something that he could of prevented had he tried just a bit harder. Maybe if he did this differently, maybe he could of done something more or less. Jaeden had refused to leave Kimiko's side, he didn't think it was right to abandon someone he'd done this damage to do, the skies were dark now. They were in a place that was highly well guarded, some barriers were up that were like trip wire here.

Finally coming back into some sort of reality, Kimiko realized that someone was indeed holding on to her hand. She looked over to her hand and then up to the person it belonged to. A small smile formed on her lips when she realized who it was. She knew it wasn't his fault, well it was his fault, but it wasn't something that she was going to hold against him, unless she wanted something of course. Oh the possibilities! She ignored the people that came into the room to bring food to them and tightened her hand around Captain Crow's hand. She reached out with her other and set it on his shoulder, shaking him lightly. Seeing that the food they brought in actually smelled pretty good, it was time for him to wake up.

"Helloooo... Captain Crooooow.... WAKE UP!" she suddenly shouted after first speaking rather low and shaking him a bit. Obviously this was to startle him. She decided that acting as if she were mad at him at first was going to be fun. Things like making him pick up her dry cleaning or cleaning her room at the Barracks definitely crossed through her mind. Guilt trip was more than likely going to happen. If he woke up, she'd stare slightly angrily at him. She was a good pretender. She could hold this face up for a loong while.

Jaeden's optics slowly opened, he wasn't truly sure where he was, this place had been very calm, he'd not remembered much. He felt the hand and smiled somewhat, softly letting his fingers interlock with hers. He moved his body was cracking, he seemed stiff muscle and body totally were out of comfort. He was handed some papers as he woke by someone, they were part of his staff a couple members of Squad eight had arrived last night. Just to deliver his favorite ting in the world, paper work. Bah who ever thought of this paper torture should of been killed, he was reading reports on a war that would be beginning soon. Jaeden wasn't sure what to expect of this whole thing. It looked big, most his clan had moved into the main house that he was taking care of now. He sighed and set them down, they didn't require a signature of any kind. Just simple read over and send a reply when he was ready. Jaeden assumed they were simple fools trying to make a mess out of a working system, thing's never really did change.

Jaeden however wasn't among the living yet, he still gripping the female's hand fell forward straight into her lap, his head hitting her lap now as he seemed pass out again. He looked rather innocent in his sleep, a couple female members giggled at the two before leaving.
