Aru?! Sonido? Anastasia grinned playfully as she watched the Sexta Espada move away from her. "Oh come now, mi amor~ You're not running away from a girl are you?" she teased him. If she could get him to do something stupid in a fight, she could defeat him. Anastasia wasn't really all for killing. Just let him live with wounded pride. That and...what if he had Ryo? She wanted Ryo. She should gamble with him some other time. Aru...Troublesome~
Alas, she was here to do her job. After all, all play and no work made Jack a dull boy. Or all work and no play..or all play and all work...One of those. Actually, don't listen Jack. Jack was a dumbass. Who the hell was Jack anyway!? Anyway, she should probably release now. "Rose of the catalyst, petal of the stars, ignite and burn away my enemies. Shokubai-En." Her nagamaki transformed into a black, mineral-esque , metal spear. It was covered in a circuit board pattern that had an extremely fain dark silver glow to them. She shunpo'd over to him, moving to his front. "Aru? I promise I don't bite...much" she said stabbing forward in his eyes.
Anastasia was aware he could shoot massive Cero and Bala. She'd be on the look out for that. She'd watch for his hands and mouth. She's heard of arrancar shooting cero and bala from their mouths. She saw that bala he fired at Benkei-taichou earlier. Scary stuff. Aruu....She'll just have to deal.

Okay, that was impressive. The Espada was definitely resourceful and experienced; he knew to fire off a shockwave mid-Sonido to protect himself from Benkei's attack. However, it wasn't really going to work. Not as well as he wanted.
Rio released the shockwave instinctively, and it would knock the plasma blades off course some, right? Yeah. That can be agreed upon. However, this is all happening really quickly. At that speed, very little changing of direction is going to happen before Rio hits the blades, especially because of the magnetic strength holding them in that position surpassing Rio's shockwave's strength. That said, the blades were going to dissipate. Kinetic force could do that to the plasma blades. However, the blades generated instantaneously and were still on! When they get dissipated, they regenerate, albeit at a slower speed. However, they still had a tiny sliver of time before hitting Rio. That wasn't nearly enough to regenerate even half of the blade, but it was enough to regenerate a few inches. That wasn't gonna help with the one trying to cut off Rio's arm, which was too far away. However, it did mean that he was gonna lose a small chunk out of his waist; the blade that was positioned there was pretty close, given the way his clothesline was gonna work out.
However, none of those details were very important for Rio's attack or survival. That's because his shockwave and momentum, while strong, were nowhere near enough to break through Benkei's wall and get to him. Plus, there was the problem of the serrated blades. The shockwave was pretty strong and would hit some of them at an angle, causing parts of them to break off. Unfortunately, the parts that faced Rio's body were pointed directly at him and had three feet of steel reinforcing them against the shockwave. Even if the tips of the blades got messed up a bit, the blades definitely weren't going to be significantly diminished, certainly not enough for Rio to have anything vaguely resembling a prayer of survival. He was moving towards the blades at far too great a speed to consciously respond or instinctively do anything more; just firing off that shockwave reflexively had consumed pretty much all of his remaining time. He was going to get skewered all over his body by the serrated blades, turning his internal organs and limbs into an oversize wiffle ball; even if he somehow avoided being lethally wounded by those, he wasn't going to smash through the wall. His skeleton would be crushed. With all those wounds, he was pretty much guaranteed instant death; even if he managed to survive for half a second, the blades would cause his muscles to wig out like a decapitated chicken, preventing anything like an organized response. The wall was too thick for him to smash through, even with that prodigious strength Benkei had observed earlier; even if he was strong enough by some miracle, its forward momentum would just shatter the limb. Rio was, to put it simply, one dead mofo.
Rio had fought with skill and power. He was pretty much an immovable object. However, Benkei was also essentially an unstoppable force. People always ask "What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object?" The answer to that question was very clear in this situation. The force cannot be stopped, so when something that won't move gets in the way, the unstoppable force simply smashes through and continues on.
Anyways! While this had been going down, other fights had erupted everywhere. Benkei opened a hole in his wall roughly the size of a window and saw Anastasia, the Eighth Squad Lieutenant, locked in combat with that Espada with the crazy strong Reiatsu. He also observed Shade Kawada and Zieg Revolver, Saix Shinra's top two officers, fighting a third Arrancar. The fourth was nowhere to be seen, but Benkei did sense a powerful Shinigami Reiatsu nearby. That situation seemed taken care of.
Saix's men seemed to have that Arrancar under control, so Benkei was going to help Anastasia. She was very capable, but with that Arrancar's reiatsu, she might need some assistance. Benkei saw that she was going for his eyes. Clever girl. If you can't beat their Hierro, hit the part of the body that's not covered by skin. His focus was going to be on her, so Benkei decided to help out. The Arrancar had moved several feet away from his former position, which was near where Benkei emerged from Sonido; however, several feet were only a couple meters.
At incredible speed, too high for a foe whose focus was somewhere else to process in time, the sand that had made up the serrated blades zipped forward through Rio's corpse to encase his legs in a steel prism. The dead Arrancar's body would fall to the ground unceremoniously. Benkei was gonna brush him to the side soon enough, but at the moment he had to help Anastasia. At their speed and with their strength, they were going to crush the legs on impact, especially since Benkei didn't make any effort to restrain the sand. It was analogous to somebody with incredible strength breaking your arm in an effort to grab it. At the same time, Benkei tore away the Arrancar's ring as he had originally intended. There wasn't a sword on him, so Benkei figured that the ring was the Zanpakutou. His arm would be moved to point at Benkei and the ring would zip through the hole in the wall. The Arrancar's arm would be swung around and the ring removed too quickly for his arm to stay fixed pointed at Benkei; as such, it would continue to swing up, and any Cero or Bala he fired would go wide. The Arrancar's reiatsu was strong, but he was up against a Lieutenant and a Captain. He was going down.

Magnus was down, seemingly unable to get up. That is the opening Arhellai took. He knew that he needed one full-incantation Kido to bring him down. So, as soon as Shakkaho fulfilled it´s purpose, Arhellai started another incantation. But this time, it was incantation for much higher level Kido. "The Crest of Turbidity seeping out, An insolent vessel of madness, Boiling up, denying blinking, obstructing slumber..." Yeah, it was it. Arhellai planned to use full powered Kurohitsugi on stunned Magnus. He knew that there was of Magnus moving around for some more time. After all, Arhellai hit one of pressure points, but the effects were postponed, but took place now. For Magnus it was game over, practically. "...the princess who creeps, the mud doll; ever disintegrating, unite, oppose! Filling the Earth, know your own impotence! Hado #90: Kurohitsugi!"
Magnus was down on his knees, when he heard some words. What the fuck? He was still thinking what to do, when it happened. A big black coffin materialized around him, even though he had no idea what it was. He was just about to start charging Cero, in order to release himself. When he felt pain. His skin was pierced, his muscles ripped, his bones broken. And then it all ended. That black thing dissapeared, but Magnus was left on the ground, unable to move, left to slowly bleed to death. For him, it truly was a game over now.
Arhellai didn´t stay to watch. As soon as he finished his incantation, he turned and started walking towards the place when they encountered Arrancar. Arhellai knew that there are more Espada there, two actually, and for his knowledge, only one Captain, Benkei. So he moved towards that place, knowing that he will be soon engaged in more serious battle. Arhellai fought Magnus, yes, but he was barely damaged. He had a few bruises and some minor cuts, but it was really nothing. He could still fight at his full.

Awesome, just what we needed. As Andrea began his Sonido he could sense it. Another force, but what? It felt like vibrates.. Rio. Before his Sonido had actually ended, Andrea felt it. The slight remnants of that Shock Wave. This couldn't be very good. Andrea knew little about Rio's natural abilities but it suddenly became clear that this was one of them. Hell, it was probably only the start. None the less Andrea needed to focus on the girl. But she showed no signs of slowing up. Granted he enjoyed the company of a girl, this was not the time nor the place. His instinctive 'sane' side was to be the one that prevailed. Fighting in the same area as the Quinta? Bad idea. Nothing was known of Rio's release, but it didn't matter. The Resurreccion of a Quinta? Could never be good. Andrea was not one to stick around and find out either.
Instead, the moment Anastasia voiced the first word of her Shikai Andrea was again, gone. This time his goal was to isolate himself from the others. If Gen noticed Andrea, he would surely realize what he was doing. Being anywhere near Rio and Benkei right now was insane. The two were about to be fighting at their fullest. Actually, one already was. The Shinigami would yet prove weak. There was one downside, Anastasia. He didn't really mean for her to die today, if at all possible. So his first action after using Sonido? Passing by her, moving at a total stat speed of 5200, his only word? "Come.." His hope was that she would take the hint and follow. If not, well, then it would be her loss really. After that, he was gone. His Sonido took him just under a Kilometer, a little over half a mile. A very large distance to cover, but Andrea knew full well the power of an Espada can be overwhelming. Gen however, not as risky to be around. Anastasia's senses and whatnot were decent, but no where near high enough to give her time to stop Andrea. Hell, even with her Shunpo, she couldn't stop Andrea. All she could do is follow. With Gen hopefully doing the same.

(OOC: Even though Gen’s reason for transferring spiritual pressure into reiatsu strength was... weak at best... I’m ignoring it and moving on)
Shade’s blade stopped against the arrancar’s skin and he did little damage. “You’re interrupting my observations...” The san-seki glared at the fraccion as he turned and spoke. If all that hadn’t been enough, then he was in a very bad situation. He was already feeling the wear and tear of running on so little reiatsu when he saw the fraccion’s hand reach backwards and aim at him. However it was swiftly shot with a familiar type of attack. “Shade, stand aside,” said his lieutenant, “Go, support the others, I’ll make short work of this one.” It was direct order from a superior. The third seat pondered for a bit whether he should obey his superior. Support duty? The san-seki supposed that he could attain some blood while supporting his comrades.
“Tch...” grunted the san-seki who still had a hold on Gen’s neck. With a mighty push he sent Gen sprawling on to the ground before taking a step backwards and letting Zieg deal with it. Now that he was on support duty he wouldn’t need to worry about cutting his opponents. His blade was actually well suited to providing support for multiple allies. Shade sprinted and headed towards where Andrea had gone. Whether or not Anastasia went on ahead of him or stayed behind was up to her.

There was only one flaw in Benkei’s analysis. It was that Rio’s reflexive action of activating his shockwave extended it to its maximum limit. That was to say, five meters. The problem? There wasn’t time for it to extend to its maximum distance. Which meant it would impact into Benkei’s wall long before it successfully extended to its maximum radius. Now, Rio’s shockwaves didn’t act like normal shockwaves. They wouldn’t simply roll past something, or dissipate when they hit something they couldn’t deflect or penetrate. They would extend to their maximum size, regardless. However, since they couldn’t break through Benkei’s wall, then they’d have to find another way. And for the answer to that question, we turn to physics.
Physics dictate that for every action, there is an opposite reaction. Such was the case here. Normally, Rio could handle his shockwaves perfectly fine, as his opponents were almost never well set enough to resist them, and would almost always be pushed back by them. This time, they were impacting something that just refused to yield. The result was that the “opposite reaction” of Rio’s action occurred. The shockwaves pushed back against Rio. And due to Rio’s positioning at the time of the shockwaves, rather that blasting him directly backwards, they pushed Rio off to the side. Although Rio normally wouldn’t have been capable of that kind of lateral movement in Sonido, let alone fast enough to evade the wall Benkei had erected, his shockwaves acted almost like a wall, causing Benkei’s own attack and forwards momentum to push against the shockwave, which, due to its inability to expand forwards, started expanding right back into its user, sending Rio spiralling out of the path of Benkei’s attack. The Espada crashed into a nearby, undemolished house with such force that he plowed right through the wall, landing on his back inside.
Rio gave a furious snarl as he leapt up. The hell!? Rio had been knocked aside, just like that!? He’d lost a pushing match!? His shockwaves had failed him? ….Oh fuckin’ hell. That was IT! Rio’s hands were on his Sai in a flash and he drew them out, impaling himself through the chest with them, while still within the house. ”Attack Cerberus!” He snarled in fury. He didn’t care if he was using his Ressurection this early. He didn’t care if he was showing his hand. He fucking didn’t care about anything except ensuring Benkei’s destruction.
(cue release music!)
An explosive aura of reiatsu erupted from inside the house and the building began to shake. If Benkei had attempted to attack Rio while he was releasing it would almost certainly have been blown back by this wave of reiatsu and general wind that kicked up. The windows on the building shattered and timbers creaked and groaned under the strain of trying to enclose such a power. A mighty green flare of reiatsu could be seen within, almost completely cloaking Rio’s form. But something could be seen within it. Slowly taking shape within the massive wave of reiatsu a massive form was appearing. The house started to rumble and suddenly fell apart, shouldered aside by whatever was forming within the reiatsu. Whatever it was, it clearly was no longer human in form.
At last the reiatsu cleared, revealing what had been taking form within. Standing roughly forty feet tall at the shoulder, this massive beast could be seen from all around. Reddish fur covered its muscular bulk, and its four legs ended in passive paws, with claws equal in length to any shinigami’s sword. In place of a tail, a massive cobra extended, its gleaming scales looking, for all intents and purposes, as though it were armor. Slitted eyes gazed callously down upon the shinigami before it. Extending from its front was not one, but three snarling heads, with eyes filled with a mysterious green fire. Great fangs filled their maws, and drool hung from the mighty beast’s jaws, dripping to the ground. A strange ethereal green light could be seen at the back of their throats, a green mist emanating from it. This was Rio Demoniogalgo’s Ressurection—Cerberus.
With a sudden motion, Cerberus slammed a paw to the ground and let out a demonic howl from two of its head, that seemed to shake the buildings about him, such was the sound produced by this. The third canine head fixed its blazing eyes upon Benkei. You see, as Rio had stomped, he had created a powerful shockwave, not unlike the one he had just tried to use to disrupt Benkei’s attack. The difference was one of scale. These weren’t unfocused shockwaves like the ones Rio had just used. No, those were impossible to use in his Ressurection. These were focused shockwaves. Raising twenty feet high and extending to nearly one hundred meters in diameter. That’s right. Diameter. Because Rio had stomped, the shockwave blasted out in a circular shape obliterating anything in its path, at speeds comparable to a Bala. If anyone here was hit by this, if they did not have a Hierro capable of resisting Rio’s attack they were done. Not a single person in the immediate area had anywhere close to a strength high enough to survive an impact with this shockwave. Given how close Benkei was to Rio, it was likely that he wouldn’t be able to get out of the way in time, due to the speed of the shockwaves. Even the other shinigami, would have a very difficult time escaping the full range of the shockwave, if they weren't already clear of its attack radius before it was launched. Oh. And Gen too. He should probably move too.
The only advantage the defenders might have against this attack was that due to its immense size and destructive power it was a lot harder to miss, compared to Rio's sealed form's shockwaves, as it blasted debris of the houses that Rio had destroyed flying, but that would be small consolation to those in the immediate distance. To them, it was entirely likely that all they'd see was their world exploding, followed by their bodies being torn apart by the shockwave's force.

OOC: Obviously, you haven't read Gen's personality. Please refrain from judging my posts in such a manner until you have. Thank you.
IC: Gen was in the middle of charging that cero when he suddenly saw Andrea disappear with a Sonido. Oh no! Wait! Andrea had left him too! Andrea had said he would protect him. Gen had come with him to this thing and he was supposed to stay with him. In Gen's mind, he figured that Andrea wanted him to follow as well since he said that he would be protecting him. His mind was already thinking about Andrea leaving rather than the foe behind him. His target had already been locked, but he had forgotten to fire it off since he had become distracted by Andrea's moving away. That Shinigami had disturbed him while he was learning and also made him miss Andrea's leaving. How would he catch up to him now? Gen had almost forgotten all about the Shinigami behind him, and since the hold on his neck wasn't as tight due to the two scarves wrapped there, Gen was able to take a step forward in an attempt to move towards Andrea. That meant that his right hand would be out of the way when that bullet shot out. As he took a step forward, Gen heard the gun shot. His primary response in that situation? To duck and take cover even if the bullet had already passed by then. That was the instinctual response that anyone would have when hearing a gunshot. Even if it hit already. His diving forward however, had no use since he had already stepped forward as Zieg was taking aim. With no way to readjust his aim, the shot would miss.
While diving forward, Gen also released that cero as a reflex. It was charged already anyway. A reflex to get rid of the danger behind him. Gen was normally always afraid of everything around him. Even a small rock that looked harmless sometimes. That was just how paranoid Gen was. In this moment, Gen was even more afraid and so in wanting to get rid of what was making him afraid, he had forgotten that his cero's target was still locked on. In moving into that dive, the cero shot out of his hand. It didn't aim at Shade directly since he was now out of the way. It just fired off. However, since it had that special property to disappear and reappear at the target's back, that would still go down since Shade had been locked as the target. The cero disappeared after being shot out and then reappeared, firing right into Shade's back as he was running to Anastasia and Andrea's fight. He wouldn't even see it coming. His attention had been off of Gen. Plus, like before it was locked onto him. Dodging wouldn't help him much. It would be impossible to dodge in this case anyway since there was no way he would know it was coming nor would he see it coming. That cero, with Gen's superior reiatsu strength fueling it, smashed into Shade's back, splashing third degree burns across his back and the back of his arms and legs. This would leave him virtually incapacitated.
Next, while Gen was getting up, he heard the voice of another Shinigami. This was probably the one that had attacked him. From the tone of voice he used to command the other Shinigami that had attacked Gen, he was of a higher rank. Was he Captain or Vice Captain or just maybe of a higher seat? Gen didn't know, and he didn't care right now. Inside, he was panicking that Andrea was no longer around to protect him. He had to go and find him. He saw the direction in which he had headed off to, and he had felt his reiatsu where he stopped. Though, Zieg's next words interrupted his thoughts. He said he would be fighting him and that he would make quick work of Gen. Oh no! Gen looked up in time to see him vanish. Gen wasn't going to just stay there and wait for that guy to reappear though. He didn't know where he was going to come from. Gen didn't waste time looking around when Zieg appeared above him and began gliding back. Instead, Gen immediately used Sonido and disappeared himself. Where was he going? To confront Zieg from some angle? No. He was going after Andrea. With his sonido, he moved towards where he could feel Andrea's reiatsu. He had to use three sonido to get there though since his speed was much slower than Andrea's own. Plus, his mastery of sonido wasn't as good as the Sexta's, which is why it took him two extra to reach the same distance. It was near the Sexta that he stopped. "You left me..." Gen spoke in that soft monotone.
Little did he know that he had just evaded the destruction that would come as a result of Rio's release. He had effectively evaded it. However, Shade who was now incapacitated might not be able to. With those burns, he probably wouldn't be able to move fast enough to escape it in time. As for Zieg, he was already so focused on atacking Gen before he had moved away. He probably wouldn't notice the shockwave in time. Though, Gen didn't know any of this. All he knew right now was that he wasn't close to losing his life anymore. If he had fought Zieg, he feared that he might. He feared for his life being here in this invasion. The only reason he was here was because he had followed Andrea, who said that he would protect him. And to Gen, protecting him meant that he needed to be near him at all times.
Gen's Remaining Reiatsu: 1420 (-300 for 3 Sonido)

OOC: Sorry posting kinda late, got home like an hour ago, showered then got on here and got side tracked a bit. XD Its past 11 now... I promise to finish this when I awake in the morning and before I leave for work. Also, had to modify a bit due to the new amendment.
IC: Zieg's reaction did not change that the arrancar had evaded his bullet. Inside his mind, he was a bit surprised that the arrancar had actually stepped forward for a second, as if he was going to walk off suddenly. Of course, with that slight movement forward, Zieg's bullet missed, whipping through the space between Gen and Shade. No chance of that blowing off the arrancar's hand now, only causing him to dive forward down and drew his attention to Zieg. He accomplished one thing at least, though his third still would most likely become injured if he did not block the cero that was going to attack him. Of course, Shade had a good amount of energy sensory, so no doubt he would be able to sense the attack when it came at him. If it happened to Zieg, he probably wouldn't have time to dodge it before he sensed it in any form of sense. Moving onto Zieg's actions, he only aimed his revolver forward when he appeared out of his shunpo, seeing his target was gone. Doubting that the male arrancar could tell where Zieg was going to attack, he could only assume Gen had ran away. In Zieg's opinion, he believed it to be cowardness. Of course, the arrancar was only getting away to be with his ally but Zieg was itching for a fight, he wanted SOMETHING to battle! Then, his answer came, a massive surge of reiatsu.
No longer concerned with Gen, Zieg's attention instantly turned from the incredible release of reiatsu that came from his left, as he landed back down on the rooftop. Now facing that down at that direction, he saw that it was an arrancar, an Espada in fact though Zieg had no idea of this. He was too far away to receive an accurate reading of Rio's reiatsu. Zieg tilted his head a bit, his right eyebrow raising in interesting as he watched no long visible arrancar. Whatever building was nearby was torn apart suddenly, whatever it was by the reiatsu or something else Zieg did not know. He simply waited... and waited... until finally, it was revealed. In place of that arrancar, now, there was a gigantic three headed dog with a snake for a tail! JESUS! That was a complete surprise to Zieg, his eyes widened completely as he grinned. To him, that was one thing: a target. "Thats one big puppy..." Zieg murmured to himself, swiftly drawing his second revolver from its holster. He knew he would have to use more then these to take down such a big target. Luckily, that was his Bankai's specialty; taking down giant targets or numerous ones at once. Right up his alley. However, he first had to deal with the shockwave that he witnessed Rio produce with a slam of its paw. Reacting immediately, he used another master'd stepping technique in his arsenal, Senkai, to appear at the base of the arrancar's center head's neck. He was all ready well over the height he had to be at to avoid the shockwave, though it would collapse the building he was just at.
With that out of the way, Zieg was now in a position to make his move. A fierce grin on his face, he suddenly released. "BANKAI!" Zieg roared, a massive pillar of crimson red and aqua blue reiatsu engulfing his body as it erupted upward from him. No doubt, this was going to get the beast's attention, it was similar to how Rio had released. A massive surge of Zieg's reiatsu ran through the area, indicating everyone of his release in the immediate area. A couple seconds later, the reiatsu dissipated, revealing Zieg gripping the handles of the two miniguns that was his bankai. standing with one minigun pointed at the back of the center head's neck and the other at the snake that was it's tail, having kept that in mind that it's tail could kill him. His bankai was about three feet long and a bit over half a foot wide and thick, the barrels already spinning, indicating they were ready to fire. Without pause, he pulled the trigger when the reiatsu had disparted and a volley of reiatsu bullets fired from the barrels, all traveling at a stat speed of 400, and soared at the targeted heads; this being the snake and the center head at first. Zieg fired for three seconds, moving his arms back and forth in a sweeping motion, unleashing over 100 bullets at the released Arrancar's heads in line shaped formation. With his reiatsu once again condensed, Zieg's reiatsu strength had increased by 50 percent again, giving him a large advantage over the released Arrancar. If his bullets hit, they would pierce and do damage to him, but would not kill the giant three headed dog, its sheer size would allow this. However, they were going to deal damage, causing the greater intense, stinging, pain. Zieg was prepared for a retaliation to his attack, wanting the creature to attack him. Reiatsu: 200/1100(-400 Bankai, -100 for Senkai)

"Never underestimate your opponent; no matter how weak they way seem."
Ugh...all this chasing and not getting anything done was annoying. Her target didn't even say more than two words to her. Ohoho...The silent type. "Come.." Aw, come on, mate! Sigh. No more tag. It's a horrible game that involves running and chasing and all sorts of horrible sorcery. Though..She noticed something. Mostly everyone was gone. Well, they were pretty far away. Which clearly meant that she needed to get the fuck out of dodge now. She saw Rio lift his paw. Big things mean...big earthquake? Something like that. Godzilla did scary shit like that too. But she needed to attack!...Plan! Not wanting to stick around, Anastasia shunpo'd in a different direction; to his left. Not just one shunpo. Ten of them. She was practically sprinting. That was enough to get her away from Rio's shockwaves. She was now FAR off to the left of Rio. FAR in bold font. Earthquakes and stuff dissipated with distance.The very second she got out of her last shunpo, she pointed her spear at Rio. "Saisho No Gisei"
With Saisho no Gisei, she was able to create four bullets. She'd aim all four at Rio's heads. These bullets were fast. Faster than Rio because they travelled at the stat speed of 400 and Rio's was 150. He had good senses...but would he be able to react in time? Who knows? Sure, the brain processed information faster than one could move but if he couldn't move fast enough then he was in serious trouble. That and she did this right out of her shunpo. There was the chance that he might not realize it until it was too late or something. Those bullets had somethings special in them. An energy that had the ability to destroy and vaporize anything caught in it once it expanded. Grandes problemas para el Quinta Espada..yes?
Anastasia was fully aware of the possibility that he could survive this. She was also aware that there were others around. She knew that Andrea and Gen had Rio's back. Andrea's move earlier was proof of that. No doubt he'd do something. Anastasia was already cautious. She was aware that she'd probably have to move. She anticipated it so she was already cautious. For now though, she'd remain in her spot awaiting what might happen to the Quinta.

Well, that was annoying. Benkei thought he had taken out that Espada, but it seemed that he'd been deflected by his own shockwave's rebounding. On top of that, the other Arrancar, the one with the really strong Reiatsu, had just fled. Well, it was probably time to chase hi- wait, what? Benkei sensed a massive flare of Reiatsu behind him. Whirling around, he saw a building shaking apart. Inside, he could sense the Reiatsu of the Arrancar he had clashed with earlier. Benkei could just barely make out a voice saying "Attack, Cerberus!"
Ah, shit. A resurreccion.
Damn... that thing was tall. From the way it stacked up beside those buildings, that monster had to be around forty feet tall. Benkei would have moved in close to bypass its effective range, but he couldn't risk its using any more of those shockwaves like it did before. As he whirled on his heel, preparing to maneuver away, he saw the hound lifting one of its paws. Yep. Probably about to release another shockwave. At lightning speed, Benkei generated ascending stairsteps of sand reaching to the limits of his 10-meter control radius, diagonally up and away from the Arrancar. As the Arrancar brought its foot down, Benkei used Shunpo to ascend the steps, mentally pulling the sand up behind him as he fled upwards. When Benkei reached the top, he turned back around, encasing his legs in the sand as he hovered atop a platform of the steel particles. The shockwave would pass below him by a safe ten-foot margin.
Looking around, Benkei saw Zieg and Anastasia evade the Arrancar's attack in their own ways. Zieg used Senkai to zip up on top of a building and continue onto the base of the beast's middle neck, safely avoiding the shockwave. Anastasia managed to outrun the shockwave with Shunpo, which had to be pretty costly, but ultimately worked. They each launched attacks at the creature's heads. Zieg's move was pretty risky; he was positioned well, but the creature's tail could be dangerous. Anastasia's attack was safer, albeit less potent-seeming, but Benkei had heard rumors of her power.
At any rate, his allies seemed to be doing their best to harass the Arrancar and damage his heads. Benkei would take advantage of this opportunity to do some damage himself. With his legs and hips properly secured to the platform by a metal sand casing, Benkei shot off up and to the side, coming to a stop a few meters above Rio and to his right in less than a second. Suddenly, Rio would find eight deep purple Reiatsu orbs floating around him, a ninth appearing at the core of his body to bind him in place and immobilize him. "Bakudo 79: Kuyoshibari." Benkei spoke the incantation after the fact. This Bakudo was pretty perfect to use against Rio. Instead of binding him in a cage of some sort, it outright immobilized him. His physical strength was immense, but he couldn't move enough to properly utilize that strength, especially considering the fact that Benkei's Reiatsu Strength surpassed his by a good margin.
As the Kido immobilized Rio, allowing the other Shinigami's attacks to land, Benkei began muttering an incantation at lightning speed. "Seeping crest of turbidity, arrogant vessel of lunacy, boil forth and deny, grow numb and flicker, disrupt sleep, crawling queen of iron, eternally self-destructing doll of mud, unite, repulse, fill with soil and know your own powerlessness..."
At the speed Benkei was muttering, the incantation should only take two or three seconds to finish. He wasn't going to initiate the Kido just yet, but he was keeping it ready. He would wait to see how Rio would respond to the attacks and Bakudo before firing off the incantation Kurohitsugi.

Magnus finally regained his consciousness. He might have been unconscious for hours, but also he might as well have been for seconds. Magnus could not know that. He had no idea that he was unconscious for mere minutes. But what he felt was pain. Pain crushing every pore, every cell of his body. Nearly every bone in his body was broken, but somehow, his spine was in one piece. Magnus was bleeding from about a thousand small, but deep cuts. He also had multiple internal bleeding, and one of his kidneys was turned to mash. So yes, Magnus was closer to dying than he has ever been. But he could not just die. He still hasn´t regained his memory. Magnus just could not afford to die here and now. But, the trouble was, he could not fix himself up. The only good things were that the his inner voices were silent, and that he knew how to fix himself up. All he needed was his Zanpakutou. If he could manage to get it, he could at least stop the bleeding, and perhaps fix a few bones. his Ressureccion would not allow him to fight at this point, but it would allow him to survive. Knowing that, Magnus concentrated, trying to determine the location where Rio is. After all, Rio was fighting that magnetic guy. So, once he determined the location, Magnu started to crawl towards it, inch by inch, foot by foot, hoping that he will make it, instead of bleeding out along the way...
Lets play the game, Shinigami. The winner will perhaps live.

Ugh. What a drag. No one is sensible anymore. Why does EVERYONE need to fight the big guy? HONESTLY!? Blah. No matter, Andrea had been watching Anastasia the entire time, to ensure that she followed. The moment she didn't Andrea turned again. He began a Sonido movement towards Rio. He managed to leap onto one of the many buildings around Rio. Just then that Captain, Benkei moved into position. It would be impossible for him to notice Andrea, his back was to him after all. Besides, Andrea was moving faster then Benkei's sand could compete with. He wasted no time in commencing his attack. For now he would ignore the rest of the Shinigami.
Andrea reached Benkai just as he stopped above Rio. With no hesitation he smashed a rather explosive Bala into Benkei's back. It was possible to dodge. WAS. Now.. not really. Andrea was far too close. He was also far too fast. Not to mention Benkei wouldn't even be able to see him since his back was turned. The hand would bala would continue with no problem. The hand would crack through the spinal cord and the bala would explode inside the Captains chest cavity. The attack also came as Benkei was finishing the "79." This meant that he was already occupied with the phrase. Any chance he had of living, vanished with the purple orbs of Reiatsu. The bala ripped him apart creating an amazing sight of blood, bone, and flesh. Amazing.. truly. It was a shame though, none of the Shinigami were fast enough to compete with Andrea and stop him. Too bad. Reiatsu: 3250
