God Yet Lives

Mortal was very tempted to ask who his former Captain was and explain how she most likely ate him, but Sab gently held her hand and all she could do was think happy thoughts. After a sigh Mortal said, "Noah, wasn't it, I can't undo what I did, but I'm sorry, so can we just get on with this, at least at a professional level?"

Noctis smiled, "It is nice to see you too Noah, I wish we could have stopped by under better circumstances." She said, moving closer to Euryale, so that they were walking side by side.

--

Atae, apparently didn't find anything else to do, so she began to make her way down the street to a local restaurant.

*He gestures to a building a little smaller than Euryale's house with a yard of about 50 square feet.*

"Here it is."
=============================================
"I thought you had work?"
=============================================
*He appears behind her, slashing at her back.*

<You heard me.>

"That's why I'm here. I have a mission and I was wondering if you'd want to come along. Also I should probably change out of my jammies."

Noct nodded, "Alright, time to go see if she was attacked by someone from hell..." She said, making her way over towards the front door.

--

Atae finds the restaurant and gets a table and orders some beef teriyaki. She is bored and lonely.

"Lieutenant Hisagi" Atsuko said as she bowed before straightening up and handing over the Sereitei Bulletin, "He approved of it and has now asked to be left alone for half an hour."

Meanwhile, Kira was asleep and dreaming that he was pushing a gigantic lizard into a deep pit of fire.

For some reason Mortal can't help but imagine herself taking a nice nap on a bed of fire, I love being a dragon sometimes...

Kira dreams that once the lizard is down there, the entire pit suddenly explodes, showering him with scales, bones and burnt chunks of meat.

"Why didn't you just do that at the store?"

*Knock-knock.*
==============================
*Euryale knocks on her door.*
==============================
Hisagi<All right. Good job.>

*He takes the approved draft & heads into a back room.*

Everyone waits for an answer.

--

Atae gets her food and eats it. Still bored and lonely.

Atsuko had been hoping for another job, but was very disappointed when the Lieutenant left.

With nothing left to do, she went out to grab some brunch at a restaurant she had heard of.
As she walked through the Sereitei, she felt a shiver down her spine.
There are strong reiatus moving about...
When she arrived at the restaurant she looked around to see if any other Soul Reapers were there that she might be able to sit with.

Yue spins and his heels and its almost like a cero explodes from his palm as he narrowly dodges the slash and aims the cero-palm strike at the attacker's side.

"I really didn't have much time to do much anything with the whole being dragged around thing and all."

*She crawls out from under the bed.*

"That can't be good..."

*She heads to the door and opens it slowly.*

Atae looks up from her teriyaki and sees Atsuko, "A soul reaper, I wonder what squad she is from."

--

Noct looks at Taiyo, "Hey, long time no see. Is everything alright?"

Atsuko saw Atae and walked over to her, "Excuse me, but could I sit with you? I hate to eat alone."

*She slams the door like the fist of an angry god. swings open the door.*

"Hi!"

*She then tilts her head.*

"What do you mean?"

"I don't want to worry you too much, but people are coming back from hell, you and Venezuela may be in danger, so we came as soon as possible." Noct said.

"Is Ven in there with you?" Mortal asked.

"Oh..."

*She looks over her shoulder then back to the others.*

"Rangiku scared her so she's hiding under the bed."

E"It's good to see you again, Taiyo."

*Venezuela peeks out from behind Taiyo.*

V"Mortal? What are you doing here?"

E"People keep coming back from Hell to try & kill us. We thought you might need some help."

V"What? Who?"

E"Gevurah, Szayel. Senthose maintains pretty adamantly that Aamon is gone for good, though."

V"So, how are they getting out?"

E"...You know, no one thought to ask."
=============================================
*He quickly turns the blade to intercept the attack, then kicks at his head, floating sideways.*

"I was just about to get ready to go on a mission. Something about Hollows in your world stalking Fullbrings. Could the two be related?"

Mortal raised an eyebrow, "You're... an arrancar... my mere presence caused a mini crisis a few minutes ago. But you're... hiding under a bed..." She shook her head, "Whatever, at least you're safe."

Noct looked at Taiyo, "I don't know, maybe."

--

Atae looked up at Atsuko and smiled, "Certainly." She said motioning to the seat across from her. "I'm Atae Luke of Squad 4, and you are?"

V"I don't know, maybe that's because you & Senthose kept killing people, when Nel & I did no such thing?"

E"The truth is, we don't really know why the Hollows are attacking us so much. But the weird part is that some of them have been Menos."

The explosive force keeps his hand from being sliced but pushes him into the kick sending him flying a few yards back where he lands in a crouched position kicking up white sand. Yue grabs his zanpakutou and unsheaths before sonidoing back into the fray. His next strike a horizontal slash aimed at the foe's midsection.

*Taiyo turns to Venezuela.*

"And I thought it was because you're a cute little puppy."

Mortal folded her arms, "At least it isn't racism, its just me they don't like."

"I like you."

"Stop it you two. Anyway, Noah, do you have any idea on what is going on? Wait, doesn't this place have an RnD facility, maybe they can help us figure out why people are crawling out of hell." Noct said.

*A Garganta rapidly closes around him from all sides, reopening behind Yue. Once again, he slashes.*
============================================
*Venezuela blushes. Urahara is sitting on Taiyo's house, now in a Captain's uniform.*

<Oh, I already know how to get out of Hell, you just use a Garganta. The question is how they aren't found by the Hell Guardians afterwards. They're omnipotent, you know.>
