"Clear and shatter, Show me how beautiful I am! Aoikagami!"

"Break and scream, Karasumaru!"

"Spring to life and shout, Inuka!"

"Shoot your target, Sakuranbo Ite!"

"Take a seat, Kusoniwa!"

Five blasts of different colored light sprang to life.

Aoikagami's green light wove up and around Ummamachi's neck, chest, and arms. The green ribbon was twisted around Ummamachi's waist. Her white kimono vanished and was replaced by a long, open-sleeved top that exposed her midriff. Her legs were covered by green pants that had white trim and were pulled tight around her knees before flowing out and down. She was barefoot and her nails were painted green. Her hair was pulled away from her face by a pair of white clips that both said "mirror".

Karasumaru's orange light illuminated Kiba's face. It formed large spikes that came down and slapped onto Kiba's body. His hands were covered by orange gloves with black streaks on the finger tips. His unruly black hair was smoothed down and covered his left eye. It tucked behind his ear as his white kimono gripped some orange. From the ends of the sleeves and the bottom of the kimono, the orange bled inward. His shoes were now dark orange boots with dark gray soles. A chain dangled off his waist with a slab of orange metal that said "crow".

Inuka's bright red light just came down like a drape over Dog's shoulders. Dog, normally called Zoku, had black hair that was now streaked with red. The drapped light became nothing more than a red robe with gold lining. His hands were tattooed black and red. His face was coming to a snarl. His boots were a furnished red leather with black straps. Red pants and shirt topped it off. His sword was gone, replaced by small, marble-sized orbs, probably several dozen of them. Around Dog's neck was a black dog collar with a red tag that said "canine"

Instead of her old bow and quiver, Sakuranbo Ite's bright pink light no longer existed. It was a deep, fuchsia color. It shot up and then curved. It turned into a bow, just as tall as Hanako. She reached out as a pair of powder pink gloves with the pinkies and thumbs missing formed over her hands. When she gripped the handle, her slightly long hair in the back sprung up and stuck out in every-which way it chose. A pair of pink sakura's formed to hold her hair behind her ears. Her old scar was visible now. Her normally white sash turned a bright pink. Her toenails and fingernails were slashed pink and black. Dangling off the end of her quiver and the top of her bow were a pair of pink bars with "witch" and "cherry" on two different sides.

Kusoniwa's light wasn't green, as expected, but it was a dark blue. The light looked more like a cero, as it curved and came back to hit Garden, who was normally called Daichi. When it hit, vines spread out from Garden's back. They spread out until they made wings. Around his waist formed a green sash with blue streaks. The blade he held now had a rapier look. The guard curved to cover his hand. The blade itself was hued blue again. Dangling off his left ear, behind his dark blue hair, was a bar of blue metal. On all four sides, it said "garden".

The Arrancar were in awe at just how noble they looked. But it was Halibel who struck first. Obviously, she was mad at this pack of people taking out her subordinates.

Ummamachi's blade flashed and she was immitating Halibel. As if rage drove him, Yammy tried to get her from behind. But Hanako appeared in the way. She drew back her empty bow and aimed. At the last second, she let go and Yammy was forced back. The momentum of the shock made the two girls jump outside the blast range. Kiba's blade, a long-sworded thing, slashed down and cut Yammy's arm, but just a shallow cut.

"Now!" was all Kiba could yell before a barrage of arrows came down. With that settled, Kiba jumped off the street, breaking it.

They were moving so fast, Toshiro was having trouble watching them. Had this been what she'd advanced to when she left the Tenth Division? Had she become so fast that it was impossible to see her anymore?! Toshiro saw a flash of green and he jumped. Ummamachi's blade was blocking a killing blow from landing on it's target.

Looking up, Toshiro could clearly see Ummamachi's face. He'd grown used to the two green marks. But now that she had her back to the enemy with the blade holding them back, he could see it clear as day.

The triangles had split and became black-lined, jagged marks from her eye to her chin. Green spread like wild-fire across her forehead. It was amazing just how much tattoos she had now. Her neck was covered by green, scar-like marks.

Toshiro blinked when he saw a piece of paper fall between them. Looking at it, he realized it was a powerful seal used on powerful Hallows that were captured. Looking up, he saw Ummamachi was biting another one off her free left hand. When she tore it away, she twisted around and put her hand in Halibel's face.

"Shakkaho!" The red blast fired and the wind knocked Toshiro back. Halibel was blasted far away. She closed her hand and pointed it at Halibel. "Cero." A dark green, almost black, cero shot out of her fist.

"C-CERO?!"

She smiled back at Toshiro. "It's okay." She winked and Toshiro realized it wasn't a cero, it was just a very condensed Byakurai. "Toshiro!"

He looked and gasped. A Hallow, a normal Hallow, was only two inches from his face. Before he could raise his blade, it vanished. Toshiro looked up and saw Karin.

She smiled. "You really that slow?! You were faster the last time we met." She held out her hand. "C'mon, let's beat their butts into submission!"

Ummamachi looked back at Halibel. 'Hm, I wonder what that feels like. Love....' She raised her glass blade and gently nicked her finger on the end. The blood dripped down the blade and the reflective surface cracked right down the middle. 'If I can win this, maybe I'll find out how strong I really am.'

"Mirror!"

She gasped and quickly pulled back, shooting above the barrier. "Sir."

"Mirror, there seems to be a problem. A Hallow has escaped and is chasing down Unohana! Save her."

"Sir!" She turned and crouched down. "Mirror, pulling back to bonsai sakura ume!" She shot off and left a little trail of moved air.

Crow sighed and then smiled. 'How like you. Your majesty, you haven't changed. Send in the strongest to protect.' He opened one eye and then laughed. "Ah, you're going to fight me seriously now, will you?" He smiled as he prepared to attack. Just then--

"Don't you dare, you sonuva--!"

Looking down, Crow spotted them. Sun-Sun, Mila Rose, and Apache. They were unscathed.

"No!" Crow muttered, grinding his teeth together. "They were dead!" His whispers didn't reach them, but he shot above the barrier. "Crow with a report! It seems the Arrancar that have been created can't be killed! Do you have any explanation as to why?!"

"No, sir! We're working on that! It would seem Mirror has already reported this! His majesty has his best working on it! Hold tight."

Crow shot back down and met Mila Rose head-on. The two of them were locked in a fight of strength. Crow started to advance, but he was knocked aside by Sun-Sun. He smiled an evil, toothy smile that looked more like a monster's smile. "You're going to pay for breaking my rib!" He reached up and over his head. Pulling a paper tag off his neck, his spiritual pressure exploded. "I won't forgive you for such nonsense."

"You don't scare me, boy!" Mila Rose said, raising her fist. "Come and get me!"

Apache smirked. "I see a blind spot!" she taunted.

Crow's eyes widened. 'Could they possibly see a blind spot in our bankai?! Machi! You're the weakest link! Don't let your guard down!'

---Ummamachi---

She stopped dead in her tracks. Uryu, Ryuken, and Unohana were all caged. Standing beside the cage was Ulquiorra. That wasn't good....
