127 – Stomping Out Problems

=Nelliel=

Nelliel slammed her Zanpakuto into the ground with enough force to cause a shockwave that shattered the ground they were standing on and sent the duo flying away from her. It didn’t manage to do any real damage, but it did buy her some precious time.

She breathed in deeply and the spirit particles in the air started to come to life once again as they danced around her.

She held her Zanpakuto out horizontally in front of her. Her left palm pressed against the spine of the blade. It started glowing in pink becoming brighter and brighter as the power built.

“Declare, Gamuza!” She said.

Finally the collected energy exploded out like a blooming pink lotus flower sending sand flying in all directions blinding everyone watching.

The sand quickly dispersed revealing her Resurrección.

She looked like a centaur except that her lower body was goat-like rather than horse-like and covered in light brown fur. The horns on her mask had grown and curved like goat horns and white bone-like armour had covered most of her hands, elbows, and shoulders.

In her right hand was her Zanpakuto which was now in the shape of a large two sided lance.

She swung her lance blowing away the remaining dust cloud.

Her black tail swung belying her calm demeanor.

Nnoitra looked at her with concern. “W-when did you learn how to use your Resurrección?” He asked.

She shook her head. “I was able to all along,” she said.

An an unamused dry chuckle escaped his lips. “So you never took me serious at all?” He said more as a statement of fact rather than a question.

It confirmed that without his sneaky tactics he never stood a chance against her in the first place.

She galloped towards Nnoitra building up speed. In this form her speed in a straight line was practically unrivaled though her sideways motion was slightly hampered. It was more than worth the trade-off though. Not only that, but the amount of power she could generate with four legs was also increased greatly.

She swung her lance at him full force.

The clearing had finally become dead silent.

=Hisashi=

Nelliel came running to him dragging Nnoitra’s body behind her like a cat bringing its owner a dead bird. She dropped it right beside him with an proud smile.

Unlike those owners he wasn’t creeped outthough and thought the slightly goofy excited grin on her face was rather cute.

“Look! I brought you something!” She said.

He simply smiled and gave her a hug as gently as he could with his arms. “How do you feel?” He asked her.

She hugged him back tightly pressing her face into his chest while nodding. “A little better,” she mumbled.

After getting her fill she quickly let go and hopped back. “Ok. Now eat it... eat it...” she said excitedly.

He chuckled and grabbed the body rapidly converting it to pure spirit power and consuming it.

He could feel the new power coursing through his body. It was by far the greatest amount of spirit power he had ever received from a single foe.

It was a shame he couldn’t get the experience from the kill too, but some things were more important than a little extra power.

Mila Rose walked over to Tesra’s body and poked it.

“He’s stil alive!” She shouted.

She dragged him back.

His chest was caved in and his breathing faint almost unnoticeable.

“What will we do about him?” She asked.

“We can’t leave any witnesses,” Hisashi said.

Cirucci nodded. “That would be best. Although internal fights aren’t unheard off we aren’t supposed to kill any other Arrancar,” she said.
