Oblivion awaits Osaka (DP, Medium)

[Musuhina Kesshino]

With things sounding like they were heating up a bit just ahead, Musuhina, out of curiosity, decided to walk into the train car just a bit further ahead. From the sound of things, Amare and Keira had started arguing with each other about what to do. By the time she arrived, she saw a young woman being held by one of Keira's reiatsu arms before dissipating into nothing. It looked like the cause of this was a Mod Soul, one of the Soul Society's canceled creations many years ago and were the predecessors to the artificial souls that Shinigami used today.

The sad part was, that not only did she manage to kill many people in the process, but they couldn't even learn what she was trying to do. But at the very least, she couldn't affect anyone-else now. After a little bit it looked like Amare was headed off to whatever adventure was next for him. She kind of felt a little bad for the guy, all he wanted to do was help and now it looked like all he thought he was now was a nuisance. So in an attempt to console him she gave him a pat on the shoulder before saying "Don't worry, you did a good job of keeping those things back for us. All things considered, it could've been way worse."

But with that said she'd let him go, thinking back on how things ended. She wondered how the infected would react to having their puppet master die off or how the word of the living would take notice. From the way the monsters were acting, someone was bound to notice. And as handy as the Soul Society's methods for covering things up was, she wasn't exactly sure how they'd manage it this time. But in any case, it looked like things were wrapped up here and the only thing left to do was to head back home and file reports. And hopefully Musuhina wouldn't get reprimanded too much for technically defiling corpses out of sheer paranoia. But before she could do that, she would wait for Angel before opening up the Senkaimon and returning to the Soul Society.

[Kiera Bright]

Keira glared at the mod soul in her grasp which was met by the fake girl's sneer. That just pissed Keira off in all the wrong ways. Amare's voice intruded on her thoughts though arguing that she may have been forced to do this or was a hostage. "Think about it, if she was doing this against her will, she could have used those zombies to get her free from her captures, and do you see anyone else around?" She asked rhetorically. She was continuously weighting the boy's usefulness to his stupidity. "Besides you obviously don't have any talent in sensing energy, otherwise you would know that she isn't even a real girl." Then the mod soul decided to speak up. 

Apparently she was trying to lure in as many shinigami into the city to kill them. Enough to make a difference, what the hell does that even mean? Keira didn't have long to question the mod soul farther her body started to disintegrate, but not before looking back in the direction of the train. Keira would turn her head to follow her eyes before turning back to the girl. By the time she did, she was almost completely turned to dust. A gust of wind would blow through the tunnel and sweep her ashes among the components of the train. Bah! Keira dismissed all but two of her reiatsu hands. She sat back trying to consider what the mod soul said. If Keira was the wrench in the plan, did that mean that she didn't expect someone of her strength, or just her specifically being here. Either way she was stupid. 

Amare would announce his retirement of the tunnel sounding quite forlorn. Keira exhaled deeply closing her glowing pink eyes. "Her disintegration was not my intention. Remember that." She said before he was out of ear shot. Keira would retrieve the bone gauntlets with her other reiatsu hand. She would examine the area the mod soul was looking at just in case she left any nasty contingency plans. If there wasn't anything of interest, she would turn her attention immediately back to the two shinigami. "Our business is not yet complete. I would not like to collect my payment promised to me earlier." She said in an even tone extending her reiatsu arm for them to place the payment items in.  

[Angel]

The damage she sustained was serious, enough to kill a normal human, but she endured, and with that, she watched as the valiant Musuhina was the one to strike the beast with a red aura, negating it’s healing, causing it to explode into acid and fall apart into nothingness. However, it was the case of Musuhina getting so seriously injured that drove Angel insane with anger. She was willing to throw herself into combat even though she knew that in terms of combat skill, she would and could very well get absolutely butchered. Yet, the medic recovered well, and she was alive. With that, when she approached, Angel cared less about the medic’s well being and focused more on her own. They were all alive, and what happened next was something to keep in mind. The fullbringer, Amare came to them, asking if they were alright.

“Fine.” That was all she said as she looked past him, disregarding him for the true threat, the woman that was the root. She walked past, daring to grab the skull of the beast, the one with the eyes that could make people vomit or feel nauseous just by looking at it. Feeling the now lack of acidic property on her fingers, she shook it, looking to see what the thing would turn into, but it was time to move on. She’d take whatever loot was left, letting the others have their pick, and she looked for the human, or what she believed to be human, full intention on killing her for the crimes she’s committed and damning her soul to hell for the rest of eternity. Yet, she was beaten to it. While Amare asked the witch if she was alright, Angel was tempted to shoot him in the back with a Byakurai then and there, and be done with it.

However, she was beaten to her mission as Kiera had grasped her with an ethereal arm, and as she was healed, she approached, watching the woman turn to dust. A Mod Soul...that was what she had to be wasn’t it? She looked on and sheathed her sword in disgust, sealing, and like that, she felt herself feel far less violent. Before Amare was to leave, he asked himself to be excused, and it was then that Angel looked at him with a frown on her face. “You’re disgustingly honest to your nature, so much so that you’re blinded by it.” Unlike Musuhina, she started to see Amare as a liability who wouldn’t be able to defend anyone with his nature. She doubted at this point he’d be even able to defend himself.

Biting down on her teeth, she turned to the modsoul, and the demand for payment. “Of course...you’ve been the greatest asset in saving us, so it’s only fair if I stay honest to my word.” Proceeding to reach into her badly burnt shihakusho, she miraculously pulled forth a hell butterfly, and with it, a candy dispenser. “Study these as you will. If you wish for more research material, then perhaps we can meet again.” With that, her mission was completed as instructed. The source was destroyed, and with that the Seireitei could clean up the rest of this mess. It wasn’t her responsibility. So, stepping away from the Mod Soul, she opened the Senkaimon, hopping through it with Musuhina to the Soul Society’s safety once more. She was going to have to digest a lot here, a lot of different things.

For one, many humans were casualties. While it wasn’t her fault, she still felt overall disgusted by the events. When it came down to it, she completed her task, but she wondered if she could do it better. She filed her report, made note of all of it, but altered it to mention that the initial corpse she shot at was not human, but instead one of those infected monsters. A human life lost was small. With her mission completed, and with Musuhina hopefully back in the barracks, she simply bowed in respect for her support, and head off to submit her documents to either Himitsu Kasumi’Oji, and or Kaen Youji. Then, she rested, laying in her Futon thinking about her failures, her need to grow more powerful, to be the greatest asset. It wasn’t about just being a great Shinigami and defending the Seireitei. It was about crushing all opposition...to never be in the position of helplessness. Angel had developed a strain of Agoraphobia...an aggressive strand.
