"WHAT IS THIS?" Milliard Cordova yelled as a purely evil energy flowed out of Kyoji as the boy yelled in rage and pain of loss. when the energy ebbed, Kyoji had changed: he stood slightly hunched, his grip was loose on Boyomi, his entire body moved with his breathing, and a bone-white tri-horned and fanged mask covered his face. Two of the horns sat at the corners of his eyes, pointning down, looking like tears; and the other sat in the center of his forehead, standing out as if challenging anyone to approach.
"Blood..." A twisted version of Kyoji's voice floated out of the new version of him, "the blood of my friends stains the ground..."
Milliard found it humorous the way the Shinigami only just seemed to notice, "hmhmhm, yes, it does. Isn't it pretty?"
The mask snapped to face the large Hollow squarely and growled. Kyoji began spinning Boyomi so quicky that it kicked up small whirlwinds to his side. "DIE FOUL BEAST!" he screamed as he charged faster than Milliard could react. The impact of the tonfa crushed the left side of the Arrancar's head, and sent him flying into the air. Blood-red energy began to gather at his mouth as Kyoji took an unnaturally deep breath, whipping his head upward he released the Cero and erased all proof of Milliard Cordova's existance.
"VENOMOUS TOUCH! ESCORPION!"
"HAUNTING VISIONS! PESADILLA!"
Turning in response to the spikes of reiatsu, Kyoji found the scrawny Hollow now had claws instead of hands and a tail, along with an armor-like shell; the woman now seemed to be nothing more that a dark colored collection of sheets with a face. He began to charge them.
"BANKAI! DAIGUREN HYOUINMARU!"
A dome of ice erected itself around Kyoji, isolating and protecting him as Captain Hitsuguya entered the battle.
"Captain," Yuki begged, knowing she was only minutes away, "keep them away from Ky-Ky. I'll bring him back to us."
Having knocked both of the Arrancar into eachother, Toushiro changed the grip on his sword, "Dragon Hail Flower!" He collided with the Hollows in an explosion of ice. As he landed, the Ice surrounding his body and causing him to look like a dragon dissapearred, allowing him to land on his own feet. The formation of ice in the sky, containing the frozen remains of the Hollows burst apart, looking like snow falling to the ground.
Kyoji was tired of being trapped in such a small area, so he prepared his Cero and fired at the place he sensed the one responsible for his imprisionment.
Sensing the power, Hitsuguya turned and released his Shikai, "Reign from the Frozen Skies! Hyouinmaru!" Using the ice dragon it summoned to absorb the blast. "Kurohane! get ahold of yourself!"
"Their blood! Their lives!" Kyoji clutched at his head, "IT'S MY FAULT!"
"No! It's not!"
"RRRRAAAAAHH!" Kyoji charged the Captain of the 11th Squad.
"Kyoji!" Toushiro tried to reach the man inside the monster as he parried a powerful strike.
"Shuuhei and Sei..." Kyoji attacked in a berserk rage, his Vice-Captain was a very good friend of his. "Both of them. WHY CAPTAIN? WHY DID IT HAVE TO BE THEM?"
Histuguya was honestly wondering whether he was speaking with the Shinigami or his Inner Hollow. It was obvious, however, which was controlling his body.
Both of the men sensed a presence rapidly approaching from behind Kyoji.
"Hakumisu! NOT YET!"
She didn't get the warning in time and found herself driven into the ground by a backhand blow. Blood sprayed from her mouth as she slammed against the dirt.
"!" Kyoji dropped his weapon and began tugging at his hair.
