Seeing his last ditch effort to turn the tables ended up faltering, Takano appeared resigned to his impending fate and knelt down in exhaustion. Mission. Complete.
Wait a minute... The Shinigami might have resigned to this fate, but he seemed to have underestimated just how much luck he is able to wield. Out of nowhere, with a slide of a Japanese style door, a bright light and a powerful Reiatsu coming to life, Vayle stepped into the battlefield, her and Arcadia's eyes crossing each other instantly.
"What?!" Arcadia exclaimed, instantly gripping onto the handle of her Asauchi upon the sight - however, Vayle hardly even seemed to recognize her existence, instead taking care of Takano and ordering him to sod off from the battlefield while she sorts things out. Really now... The time hasn't even come for them to meet again, the hell is Vayle doing here? Arcadia's fury instinctively started mounting, all the disgusting memories from their previous clash coming back to life once more...
However, much like Takano found himself an ally despite not expecting one, so did the Fullbringer. The sound of a magical portal swooshing to life came from behind her, before two gentle hands wrapped around Arcadia's stiff and straight torso from behind.
"Ah, ah, ah, Vayle... You're not the one who should be talking about manners~" Lady Eleanor spoke, her chin resting on her shorter minion's head and a confident smile boring towards the Shinigami. As soon as she finished her sentence, a portal would appear underneath Takano's feet, several sets of chains shooting out from it, aiming to wrap around his limbs and pull him inside much like what had happened to Estrella a long time ago. "And, besides, my dear Arcadia said it better than I ever could. Whether he lives or dies is no longer decided by him..."
Offering a final wink towards Vayle, Eleanor would vanish within the exact same portal she had arrived in, with Arcadia in tow.

Vayle looked to Arcadia with an aggravated smile as Takano appeared, and Vayle immediately held up mahoutsukai. "Sorry, but I don't think I can let you go pursue him..." Vayle would add with an irritated look. She could tell he was going for his zanpakuto, but that was something the fresh, new reinforcement could've done for him! Still, he'd only made things a little more complicated.
Of course, stopping Arcadia, even seeing Arcadia, brought back her old emotions fresh and new, but that's something she'd just have to tolerate-
Is what she thought. Arcadia was wrapped in an embrace by Eleanor, and Vayle's expression changed immediately. "You bitch..." Vayle spat, looking straight at Eleanor. "Jumping in and running again?"
The shinigami clenched her fists. "Afraid I might just crush your skull if you don't?"
But then, as Eleanor continued, what Eleanor said finally registered on her face, and she turned to Takano just in time to see the chains grab onto the death god. sound suddenly stopped having meaning again as she Launched herself forward, hollow energy spiking completely as she threw up a hand and she stopped moving with reason or consideration and turned to raw instinct.
A red circle formed around her hand, and with a simple, determined glare, fired a red bullet of energy straight towards the chains, the blast immediately exploding on contact with a rippling wave.
A fully-formed, well-controlled Bala.

Arcadia was utterly furious at Vayle showing up. Why that was, he didn't know. Most of this mission was just one big cluster of confusion for the scientist, he really just wanted to get Chiyu and get out of here. Hopefully she wouldn't be too mad. As Takano continued to run, he would suddenly feel an oppressive Reiatsu, even more powerful than Vayle's. It would slow him down to a light jog as he kept moving forward before finally turning around to see what was causing this. Leaning on Arcadia was a rather beautiful looking woman, saying something to Vayle. Whatever it was he couldn't tell, but it would be followed by… "Shit" Takano muttered under his breath as chains began to wrap around his legs, pulling his feet out from under him and slamming his face into the ground. Before he could react it began to drag him away towards some kind of portal. Takano would pull at the chain meekly, stunned by the drop. In the corner of his eye he would see Vayle summoning a… Well, this day just kept getting worse and worse, didn't it? "V-vayle! Stop!" He'd shout, worried how much damage she could cause to herself if she used such a technique. Quickly the chains would twist around his arm and place it in front of wherever Vayle had aimed. The Bala would tear through his arm, nearly severing it completely. Eleanor gave a coy smile and a little "Oops" before continuing to pull him back. Takano glanced over at Vayle. "G-get Chiyu… Find Sori… Keep them safe…" He would glance behind him a moment before looking back to Vayle with a sad grin. "Sorry...I should of-" He would be cut off as he was jettisoned back into the portal, Followed by Eleanor. Lady Arcadia Vayle Cameo |

Vayle looked at the shot with widened eyes as her bala struck the wrong target entirely. "...No..." The death god managed to breathe, dropping partways from the sky. For a moment, there was the feeling of utter failure, of fear and anxiety and guilt and shock. Then, Vayle's eyes looked up with fire as a red aura crackled around her, and the rage properly hit her. "Eleanor..." Vayle growled. "When I get my hands on you, I promise I won't make it-" " Vayle!" Mahoutsukai yelled, and the shinigami pulled herself from her stupor. "What?!" Vayle snapped, as she watched the two of them go. " You can have a pity party later... I can... I can feel Chiyu nearby." The zanpakuto would whisper. "Chiyu...?" Vayle mumbled, realizing just what that meant, and winced. Takano had ran, and was without anything to help him, without even his zanpakuto to keep him company, support from Seireitei, anything... She gripped mahoutsukai tightly as the idea of losing her sword crossed her mind. she'd go mad - of that she had no doubt. And now Takano was exposed to that world. she thought of Chiyu, too, and rushed forward with tears in her eyes. She knew there was no way of explaining that her master was gone that wouldn't bring their weapon to tears. All she could do was... take care of her. It's all she could do to make up for failing to take care of him. Takano Hirai Lady Arcadia [/i] |
