The wolves fell before her twisted sense of grace. Like hanging over the fire the dogs were skewered and left hanging for some time before their own sheer force caused their bodies to fall apart into pieces. How miserable. She could only assume that they were only as intelligent as ordinary wolves. Possibly, or probably dumber than that. She didn't care, only about moving ahead into the Seireitei to take care of the business that they were required to do. That was all that she had left really. The peons among the Shinigami's ranks fell in droves before her. Once her Lover's Hand was active on a bloodied field, she pretty much didn't have to move a muscle to slay her foes. As the more blood began to spread across her sights she felt herself being surrounded.
Power from those animals that she just recently put down were coming back to life. The reiatsu she felt in them began to stir once more as though they were among the living again. Were they playing dead? That couldn't be it. Their reason for moving must be caused by their overall power, or by some technique. Either way it was getting annoying to have to deal the mongrels again. As numerous and strong as they were, they were remained ignorant as to who they were dealing with. At the same time, if they came from the slutty Captain, then she couldn't underestimate them. In truth, they were pissing her off even more. It was bad enough that one of their own bit the dust already, and the push over of a Sternritter was playing with the Captain to the point of being distracted. Geez, how did she get stuck with the shit job? Oh well, it couldn't be helped.
The wolves were reassembling themselves as quickly as they were destroyed before, so it gave the girl some time to draw in some reiatsu into her Spirit Fragment. (+300) Alicia lacked the time frame to draw in more in order to be fully ready for what she had in store, so, she would have to wing it. First off, she deactivated her 2nd Property, Blood Fountain. The armor did what was necessary as its residue leaked on the floor beneath her. Much of her body still remained utterly useless to a degree, but thanks to Ransotengai she could move herself to a degree. But it'll still hurt like Hell. She had to limit her movement to exactly what she needed. With the flood of blood streaming down her body from her armor and battlefield, the woman forged a seven by seven foot cylinder box of pure crimson blood.
The small structure was more than enough to conceal her entire body. The wolves would have pounced onto the large box form, nawing away at its contents quickly to get to the girl. That was what she wanted. Before they even knew it, Alicia was already using the bottom surface of her creation to tear into the ground beneath her. A small crawl space for her body to fall into quickly but comfortably. The soil had been stained with her red residue, twisting back and forth like that of a drill head to help her descent. As for the wolves, their efforts was rewarded as they clawed and bit their way down to the juicy center with no time to waste. Since it was when her body was lowered did the contents in which they bit into gradually began to stick to their gums and claws. Little by little did the sugar within the blood thickened, becoming that similar to gum.
With the amount that had been collected and splashed around among the beasts, it was more than sufficient to keep them in one place. Or rather gather them in one place. In her descent into the Earth the wolves would not only discover the thickness of the blood, but how much stronger it was than their own strength. Blut Arterie was triggered once more in order to insure that the beasts wouldn't escape as to what was to come next for them. They were right where she wanted them to be. Thanks to her Blut, the Sternritter's spiritual prowness grew. Doubled to be exact. From what was 950 Reiatsu Strength was now that of 1900, toppling that of the beasts. Her strength shown in the elasticity of the blood, which drew them towards one another. The small splatters of blood that stained the ground came to life, connecting the blood on the gum's and fur of the wolves to that of the floor and to each other. Hands came to bind them all, hauling their struggling bodies together into a tightened clump.(-500)
One of the heads of the beasts was slowly crushed, and with it more blood to spew out onto the ground to be used. The wolves themselves were to be used as weapons against one another, adding further fuel to Alicia's efforts to push herself forward. Yet, she couldn't help but wonder even if the wolves were crushed to death, that perhaps they will come back again. She didn't want to have to deal with the dogs again. If she did, then she would run out of reiatsu long before they would ever give up and die. That was when the other idea came into mind. Amalia. Her overpowered self would be more than enough to turn the mutts into ashes. Nothing to come back from if there was nothing left to come back from.
The blood beneath her pushed her body back up to the surface to help the girl check to see what Amalia was up to. The sight of her in the air, the indication of growing reiatsu meant that she was preparing for something. Something big she hoped. There was a lot of resistance in the sphere of blood. The wolves were still kicking about, trying to push and claw their way out as the sphere shrunk ever so smaller. It took much of her concentration to maintain the sphere of blood whilst the dogs struggled. Despite having the superior strength over them, her weakened body made it more of a task. For that reason she only stuck with her Lover's Hand, maintaining her Blut until she was able to haul the sphere into Amalia's blast radius. Struggling and in pain, Alicia rolled the bloody sphere quickly to where Amalia faced against the Captain. The Earth pounding waves of reiatsu made her body quiver.
And with a single mental throw, the sphere was flung into the blast radius that Amalia's destructive technique caused. Moments before entering, the sphere collapsed, causing the blood to return to her side once more to be used. Only then could the woman take breather, though not forgetting as to where she was. She couldn't let her guard down for a moment as she waltzed slowly towards the wall. With much the Shinigami drawn towards their so called Emperor and much of the other Quincy, all Alicia had to do was pick off those who would stand in her way. She could only hope that Amalia would finish the Captain off before it became too late. Still, it didn't hurt to turn back around to make sure that she did, taking in the reiatsu from her Quincy's cross as she did. (+300)
