To some readers out there who commented that I made Ichigo, Uryu and Jura weak by losing to Gemini too damn easily in the previous chapter, then damn you. What I thought is since the first perfume blocks their magic power or other forms of power, they are powerless and vulnerable to attacks. Plus this is NOT a fic where Ichigo is all Godlike. Seriously, I'm not a fan of those kind of fics, the characters felt overpowered. He will have moments where he will be vulnerable. He's human for God's sake. And even though they're S-class mages, they aren't Gods, dammit!

Both parties were having what looked like a glaring contest as Oracion Seis finally revealed themselves to The Light Team after their...flashy performance. Some of the dark mages were wearing dark grins on their faces, while The Light Team were tense, ready for a fight. After a minute of silence, the presumed leader of Oracion Seis was the first to spoke up.
"Some maggots have gathered," Brain sneered.
"We saw through your plans," Angel smirked. "We've already beaten Jura, Ichigo, Uryu and Ichiya."
"Damn," Lyon said.
"They actually beaten the four strongest mages of their respective guilds, they're strong," Ren remarked.
"Are you trembling?" Cobra sneered. "'Cause I heard it."
"We prefer to finish our job as quickly as possible," Racer spoke up. "But you guys are in the way."
"Money makes a person stronger, right?" Hoteye inquired. "Let me tell you something good, in this world money is everthi-".
"Shut up your mouth, Hoteye," Cobra grunted.
"Erm...I think one of them is asleep," Lucy said with a sweatdrop as she stared at Midnight who was still sleeping soundly while sitting with his head slumped on a hovered carpet.
"Ichigo was right, they're nearby and will make their first move. I misinterpreted what he meant." Erza muttered.
"We let our guard down, damn it..." Hibiki said.
"Hey..." Natsu whispered to Gray with a menacing grin.
"Yeah..." Gray replied who smirked back understanding Natsu's intentions.
"I can damn hear you, you maggots," Cobra said with a devilish smirk.
"Now we don't have to go find you!" Natsu and Gray simultaneously shouted as they charged head on at the six dark mages.
"Do it," Brain ordered Racer and he disappeared from sight before he flickered on air in a spectacular show of speed. He then reappeared behind Natsu and Gray, whose grins has disappeared and eyes were wide open, clearly shocked at the display of speed. He then roundhouse kicked the two Fairy Tail mages.
"Motor!" Racer shouted.
"Natsu! Gray!" two Lucys shouted...wait...two Lucys? Both of them looked completely confused and their jaws dropped as they looked at each other. One of the Lucys then took out her whip from her belt and whipped the other Lucy, making her screamed in pain.
"Hmph, baka!" the fake Lucy said smugly.
"What the...why am I...?!" Lucy said, still confused as she find the words she wanted to say. At the background, Angel chuckled darkly as she watched the scene unfold in her eyes.
"Sherry!" Lyon called out as he charged ahead.
"Right!" Sherry replied as he charged alongside him.
"Hmm..." Hoteye mumbled as he closed his eyes in concentration. He then snapped his eyes open, revealing an orange glow in them, "I saw that, yes!" Moments later, the ground beneath Lyon and Sherry suddenly melted, trapping them from the lower torso, "Even without love, money will conquer all, yes!" He then did sime hand signs as the ground suddenly rise up and bury them underneath.
"W-What is this? The ground is..." Lyon said as he struggled to get out of then melted ground.
"Love is more important than money!" Sherry exclaimed, disagreeing Hoteye's comment. "Lyon-sama!"
"I'll take Angel!" Hibiki said as the Trimens charged in as well.
"No fair!" Eve whined.
"I'll take the brains!" Ren said.
As they continue to run, Racer suddenly flickered in existence and gave a swift axe kick on Ren, slamming him on the ground.
"Ren!" Eve called out, but was stopped short as Racer appeared in front of him as gave another swift roundhouse kick on him.
"Eve! Ren!" Hibiki stopped and turned at his comrades as he heard them being attacked. Unbeknownst to him, Racer appeared behind him and slammed both of his legs at his torso, making him winced in extreme pain, 'He fast. He's so fast, I can't see him!" As the Trimens fall onto the ground unable to move, Racer appeared with his back facing them, "Fast is good." He stated.
"Requip!" Erza shouted as she shimmered in bright light. As the light dimmed out, her armor has changed to her Heaven's Wheel Armor with her swords levitating beside her.
"I can hear you." Cobra stated.
"Dance, my blades!" Erza said as she directed all of her swords towards Cobra. As if he was predicting where her swords will land, Cobra shifted his legs a few times as all the swords narrowly missed him, making Erza's eyes go wide.
"What? He read and dodged that many swords?" She muttered in shock. Her thoughts were cut off when she felt killer intent behind her. She quickly turned and blocked an incoming kick from Racer with swords on both hands in a cross shape, shielding her chest.
Back to land, Natsu was struggling to get up after been beaten up by Racer in a matter of seconds. He wiped off some of the blood that was trickling down from his mouth, "Damn it," he winced. He then noticed Midnight, who was still sleeping soundly, as if he was oblivious of the situation around him. This made Natsu pissed off, "You! Why are you sleeping, you bastard!"
"Requip!" Erza shouted again as she canged into another armor, "Soaring Armor!" She then charged and slashed countless times at Racer with great speed, slightly surprising him, who was dodging every slash with his speed. "Ooh, you're quick! Fast is good!" he complimented.
"But...I can hear you, Titania." A voice said behind Erza, making her freeze in shock. "Your next move, that is!" Cobra said as he kicked Erza on her stomach. 'I knew it! He was predicting me!' she thought as she landed in a crouch stance, with Racer reappeared beside Cobra. "Predicting? No...I told you I can hear you." he stated, making Erza gritting her teeth in frustration.
"Wake up! you bastard!" Natsu shouted as he fires a roar at Midnight, only for the roar to be diverted and go around Midnight, unharming him and surprising Natsu in the process. "W-What was that just now?" he voiced out, "My magic didn't hit."
"Stop it," A voice said behind Natsu, making him froze. Racer then threw a barrage of punched and kicks with his exceptional speed as Natsu was silently screaming in pain, unable to find his voice. "Midnight scary when he wakes up!"
"Ice Make..." Gray said as he stood in his usual battle stance. He was interrupted when he felt somebody behind him, only for him to look at himself, confusing him. "Lance!" The fake Gray said as he threw a barrage of ice lances at Gray.
"Ice Make..."
"Doll Attack..."
"Eagle!"
"Mud Doll!" Lyon and Sherry revealed their attacks as they attack Hoteye, but Hoteye wasn't fazed as he raised his left index and middle finger at them, a magic circle appeared. "Money is more powerful then love, yes!" The two mages were then engulfed by the molten ground in an instant.
The leader of Oracion Seis, Brain was looking on with a satisfying smirk on his face. The alliance were no match for his Six Prayers as he trained all of them well into powerful mages, dark ones to be precise. To him, this is just a small obstacle to achieve their solitary, albeit lifelong goal, that is to search and obtain a infamous destructive magic that was lost in legends, known as Nirvana. His train of thoughts were interrupted when he heard sounds of swords swooshing on his right. He turned to look at Erza who was unable to land a hit on Cobra despite her speed in using her sword. He was slightly amazed by the skill of the Titania, who was still able to keep up to Cobra.
"Oh, so this is Erza Scarlet?" he muttered softly to himself.
Erza aimed a slash on Cobra's chest but she was unable to land the blow as her sword was stopped by him who blocked the sword on the hilt with his palm. Moving quickly, she thrust another sword on her left hand, but it was blocked as well.
"I can hear your movements..." Cobra whispered to her, "Your breathing...The contraction and expansion of your muscles...your very thoughts, even...!" He widened his eyes in shock as he saw flashbacks of her memories in the Tower of Heaven in his mind. Caught off guard, he released his grip in her swords and took a step back, "I see...you're also...!" He was unable to finish his statement as Erza charged at him in a burst of speed.
"You're wide open!" she shouted, but she was unable to land a blow in time as she was shot up by the molten ground beneath her.
"I saw it, yes!" Hoteye said. Racer then appeared in front of Erza and land a roundhouse kick on her torso.
"Cobra, what are you waiting for?!" Racer yelled. Putting what he saw behind his head, Cobra called out his pet snake, showing its sharp poisonous fangs as it charged at the unsuspecting Erza and bit her on her right arm. She immediately let go of her bite and dropped Erza on the ground, making her wincing in pain.
"Cubelios' poison doesn't take effect immediately." Cobra stated, "I lets you live for a while in pain!"
And with Erza downed for the count, The Light Team was defeated, unable to move a muscle while Oracion Seis looked on their one-sided victory.
"Trash, you should all vanish from this earth." Brain stated as he gestured his skullhead staff forward. A dark purple magic circle appeared and swirls of Darkness Magic swirled around the said staff.
"W-what is this magic power?" Sherry voiced out.
"The atmosphere...is trembling..." Hibiki gritted.
"This is bad..." Ren stated.
"Dark Rondo...!" He mentioned the name of the said magic. In the middle of using his magic, he saw three figures hiding behind a boulder. He strained his eyes a little to see them clearly. As he did, his eyes go wide. The ones on the left and right wasn't important to him, but the middle one was.
It was Wendy.
The important key to acquire Nirvana.
Still in shock, he slowly deactivate his magic while keeping his gaze on the small girl. His subordinates wasn't impressed.
"What's up, Brain?" Racer questioned.
"Why did you stop the spell?" Cobra demanded.
Brain just couldn't find the words to answer. Their key to getting the Nirvana is over there nearby, the key to their goal! Without leaving the gaze on the little girl, he could only answered them with one name, "W-Wendy...!"
"Is she someone you know?" Cobra asked.
Regaining his composure but still keeping his gaze at Wendy, he answered, "There no mistaking it...you are Wendy..." he stated, earning confused looks from his subordinates as well as Wendy's, who heard him clearly with her dragon slayer-enhanced hearing, but Brain wasn't finished yet with his statement, "The Maiden of the Sky!" As he finished that, all of the Oracion Seis members were on alert.
"What?" Gray said as he tried to get up, "The Maiden..."
"Of the Sky...?" Hibiki finished for him.
"What's that?" Wendy said as she hid herself behind the boulder and grasped her sides of her head in fear and confusion, tears started to form in the corner of her eyes.
"What does that mean?" Happy asked.
"I didn't expect to encounter you here." Brain said. "It looks like we picked up a nice present." He then gestured his staff towards her direction, "Come!" As those words come out of his mouth, a magic circle appeared and a line of Darkness Magic shot towards her, morphing into a shape of a hand. It moved behind the boulder where Wendy was hiding and grabbed her before pulling her away.
"WENDY!" Happy and Charle shouted.
As Wendy was sreaming for help, unable to do anything, Charle was the first to act and ran after her, "Wendy!" She shouted again.
"Charle!" she shouted back.
"Wait! I'll save you!" Happy said carrying a wooden club.
As this was going on, Natsu was struggling to get up, wanting to save Wendy, "W-What the hell are you doing?" he gritted his teeth.
"Money is the great equalizer, yes!" Hoteye exclaimed as he used several hand gestures and a magic circle appeared, melting the ground and lifting the downed mages off the ground.
Back to Wendy, she was still in the grasp of Brain magic as they were trying to capture her, "Charle!"
"Wendy!" Charle called back as she reached out her hand for Wendy to grab on, only for her to catch Happy's.
"Huh?" Happy said in confusion.
"Hey!" Charle retorted.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Wendy and happy screamed as they were going to be engulfed into Brain's magic. Just before Oracion Seis could capture the little girl...
"Getsuga Tensho!" Someone shouted for above as a black ray of energy with a red outline made its way downwards and cut off the magic between Wendy and the staff. The sudden attack didn't stop there as the attack hit the ground, creating a gust of dust, making the others shielding their eyes. As the dust clears, everyone was wide eyed as the ground was deeply cut by the attack above. They noticed a cloaked figure standing there.
Brain instantly recognize the figure and glared darkly at him full of stood Ichigo Kurosaki in his Bankai form with a scowl on his face, glaring back at the enemy. His left arm was carrying Wendy with Happy in her arms while he was holding Tensa Zangetsu on his right hand.
"Yo..." Ichigo said, "You called?"
"Ichigo!" Gray called out.
"You're alright!" Ren said.
"Where are the others?" Hibiki asked.
"Hold your horses, guys. They're coming." Ichigo said without looking back at his comrades.
"NATSU!" Happy shouted as he released himself off Wendy's grip and fly towards the bruised dragon slayer and partner.
Putting aside his anger, a evil grin was slowly creeping on Brain's face as her looked as the orange haired teenager, "I see...So you managed to recover from Angel's infiltration. I'm impressed, Kurosaki Ichigo." He said. Ichigo was going to reply him with a smartass comment, but Brain continued, "Currently Moon Guardian of Fairy Tail, previously Fifth Division Captain of Seireitei in the country of Karakura, replacing Sosuke Aizen. One of the few survivors of the Karakura Winter War two years ago, along with Uryu Ishida." he finished, surprising the others who heard him.
"Country of...Karakura...?" Natsu said.
"Winter War?!" Lyon asked.
"I've heard of the Winter War from my Archive. It was caused by Sosuke Aizen, along with his two subordinates, Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tosen. He betrayed Seireitei, the magic council of Karakura and aimed to break the barrier between humans and demons as well as surpassing Zeref and become God. The war wiped out whole of Karakura and was said to have no survivors." Hibiki stated.
"Talk about coincidence of using magic similar to the famed Shinigami," Gray grunted."He's actually one of them."
Wendy looked on with fear in her eyes and was shivering as Ichigo didn't move a muscle, his eyes was shadowed by his hair. It was several moments later that finally Ichigo spoke, albeit softl"Wendy, you're the sky dragon slayer right?" that statement made Wendy flinch and squeaked in surprise, how did he know? "Don't worry, I felt your magic signature is very similar to Natsu, plus that bastard Ishida told me." he mentally sighed in relief as he felt the little girl relaxed slightly, while Wendy mentally giggled at how Ichigo address her adopted brother. "So that means you are able to use healing magic, right?" She nodded. Ichigo then looked back slightly.
"Oi Ishida, you know what to do right?" As he said that, two figures flickered and appeared behind him. They were Jura, who was carrying Ichiya on his shoulder like a potato sack, and Uryu, who was holding Jura's other shoulder.
"You could have warn me, Uryu-dono." Jura said as he felt a little light headed.
"You're a wizard saint. You'll get used to it," Uryu replied with a small smirk.
"Jura-san!" Sherry called out happily.
"Uryu!" Charle said.
"Ichiya-senpai!" The trimens called out in relief.
A nod from Uryu was Ichigo's only reply.
Ichigo then put down Wendy on her feet and she quickly run towards his adopted brother. Seeing this, Brain growled in anger and ordered Racer to retrieve her, which he complied and disappeared in a flash. What they all didn't saw was a small smirk on Ichigo lips.
"I can see you every step," Ichigo muttered loud enough for everyone to hear. After he said that, he flash stepped and reappeared above Racer while his body was covered in lightning, surprising everyone other than the Fairy Tail mages. He landed an axe kick on the dark mage, slamming him onto the ground, creating a large crater. He was instantly unconscious from the powerful hit.
"Shunko," he said, "One down, five to go."
The others except Fairy Tail and Uryu gawked at the display of power from the former Fifth Division Captain, who just defeated a Oracion Seis member with one kick.
'Impossible...to be defeated so easily...' Brain thought as he saw Ichigo standing alone with a beaten Racer sprawled beside him.
"Let me tell you a fact about my powers, Brain," Ichigo said, "You see, there are two stages in a zanpakuto. First is the Shikai (Initial Form), the second is the Bankai (Final Form). In general, one's power can grow 5 to 10 times greater in Bankai than Shikai. I'm now in my Bankai and your little Racer here, couldn't stand a damn chance. My Bankai is compressed it into a small, condensed form, enable to perform high-speed combat."
'This guy...he took down a member of the Oracion Seis in a matter of seconds,' Lyon thought in awe 'Is this the power of the legendary Shinigami of Seireitei?'
Trying to ignore the situation behind her, Wendy just continue running towards Uryu and he grabbed her. He then disappeared and reappeared beside Erza, who was sitting down gripping her infected right arm, wincing in pain.
"You know what to do," Uryu said to her. She nodded and stepped up to the pained Titania. Without a word her hands glowed blue as she brought them up and placed then on the girl's arm. To the Light Team's surprise, Erza's infected arm was slowly healing and back to normal in no time.
"S-She was able to remove the poison," Hibiki stated in shock.
"Amazing," Sherry commented.
"Thank you, Wendy," Erza said to her with a smile, not feeling the effects of the poison anymore.
"Hm!" Wendy cheerfully nodded.
"You're so cool Wendy!" Natsu shouted, "Please heal us all!"
"No way!" Charle retorted, "She used up a lot of magic power healing the woman, there's no wa-"
"The talking cat's right," Ichigo rudely interrupted, slightly annoyed from the white cat's loud complains, earning an angry glare and a shout of 'Hey!' from her, "While she was able to use healing magic, her magic power reserves is only enough to heal a maximum of two people at once, but here not only she heals Erza, she removes the poison from her system."
"Because of this, she used up more magic power than she normally does" Gray added in.
"That's right," Ichigo said, "Now her magic reserves are real low, she needs time to recover." He then turn his attention back to the dark mages in front of him. "Plus, we need to protect her from them. She is key to their plans."
That statement took the Oracion Seis members by surprise.
"What do you mean, Ichigo?" Lucy asked.
"I saw through their plans. The search of Nirvana, Wendy's use of healing magic, wanting to capture her, I finally connected the dots." Ichigo said, then he turn his atttention to the dark mages, "You guys want to search for Nirvana, knowing it was around here somewhere in the forests but you don't know the exact location of where it is sealed. After searching it for so long, you still can't find it. You need someone that knows the location of the said magic. And I have a guess on who's that someone." he said with a smirk.
And if no one could hear Brain being nervous upon hearing what Ichigo said, Cobra could hear it crystal clear.
'This guy...he actually figured out my plans with just that little information...I underestimated him...' Brain thought while gritting his teeth. "We need to retreat...for now."
"And that's where Wendy's part comes in. This someone, only him has the knowledge of Nirvana's whereabouts, but because of...unfortunate events happened previously, he is now in a comatose state." That made Erza shot up, giving him a sharp but surprised look. She has a idea of who he meant, but it was highly unlikely, so she didn't put her hopes too high, it hurts thinking about him, she said, "Wendy's healing magic could able to negate his comatose state and restore him fully."
"You catch on pretty well," Ichigo complimented her, knowing she have known who he was talking about. Looking at her eyes, he could see anger, guilt, sadness, pain, confusion...was that relief and happiness? Putting that aside, he continued, going to the best part, "Wanna know who am I thinking of?" his smirk wider as he continued on, "This person is-"
"That is enough, Kurosaki Ichigo. Just what I expected from a former division captain." Brain interrupted, preventing him to reveal further, "That's why..." He then motioned his staff forward and green swirls of magic was gathered from beneath the ground and into the staff, the eyes of the skull glowing green. "I have no choice but to eliminate you all!" A magic circle then appeared on the staff, "Begone! Dark Rondo!"He fired the gathered Magic as a widespread attack ,intending to eliminate all of them.
"Everybody take cover!" Hibiki said as he grabbed on to Lucy, shielding her.
"Sherry!" Lyon shouted as he shielded her.
"This is Lyon-sama's love!" Sherry dreamily said.
"Ichigo! Uryu-san! Move!" Erza shouted to them, but they weren't moving. Their face showing a calm expression...or a scowl in Ichigo's case as the attack was coming nearer.
"Bakudo 81: Danku." Ichigo whispered. Just before the attack could reach them all, an extremely massive and high transparent shield appeared, preventing the attack to hit them.
"Amazing. He was able to create a shield that large," Ren said in awe.
"What powerful parfum!" Ichiya said with a pose.
"That's the strawberry moron for you." Uryu added in.
The attack finally receded as Ichigo's shield broke, but the dust created from the attack fogged their vision. As the dust clears, the Oracion Seis members weren't present, much to the Light Team's surprise but slightly relieved that they retreated for now.
"Shit, they disappeared." Gray said.
"What the...Hey!" Natsu shouted, showing his displeasure of their disappearance.
"They totally got us..." Ren stated.
"They're too powerful..." Eve added. "We couldn't even touch them until Ichigo-san came."
"Oracion Seis...What kind of monsters are they?" Lyon said, adding venom into the guild's name.
"They're only six of them," Hibiki said, "but they're even more powerful than the data we collected on them suggested!"
"And our plan to Christina is..." Sherry trailed off.
"Yes, that woman who can peer into your heart said so." Jura said, "She said they knew everything about our plans."
"Um...wha-what about the people that were on board?" Lucy asked in worry.
"You don't have to worry about that," Ren said as Lucy turned her head towards the Trimens.
"Christina was heading to its destination by remote control." Eve stated.
"After we found their base, we were supposed to board it, however..." Hibiki trailed off.
"I see, thank goodness!" Lucy sighed in relief.
"I am glad you remain safe Jura-san." Lyon said
"No, it was a close call." Jura said. "It was thanks to Ichiya-dono's painkiller perfume, he suppressed the pain of the wounds I, Ichigo-dono and Uryu-dono got. And thanks to Ichigo-dono's healing powers that he healed all the wounds we had."
"I see," Lyon said, then he turned to Ichigo, who has reverted back to his shikai, and bowed slightly, "Thank you for healing Jura-san, Ichigo-san."
"Nah, no big deal," Ichigo shrugged it off, "His injuries wasn't serious, so it was easy to heal."
"B-but, Oracion Seis got away...and w-we were badly defeated..." Said a trembling Happy, who was beside a fuming Natsu.
"I'm not impressed! They nearly took Happy! I won't be satisfied till I find them and defeat them!" screamed the agitated dragon slayer as he stood up and ran to find the dark mages. Before he could go any further, Uryu pulled him back by the scarf and making him fall on his back as he comically choked by his own scarf.
Letting go of his scarf, Uryu crossed his arms at his chest with a serious look on his face, he said, "Don't act so rash, you idiot. You're crazy if you think you can blindly charge at your enemy and win. They already swept the floor with your guys. Let us take advantage of their retreat and rest." He finished.
"Just as Uryu-dono said, the enemy is stronger than we thought. It is not wise to charge head on without a plan." Jura said. Natsu just huffed in annoyance.
"Talk about plans, I do have one, Jura-san," Ichigo told him."Now they have retreated, we should recuperate here while I heal all of your wounds. Then we split into groups and search for Nirvana and their base." he then looked over at Uryu, who was with Wendy and Charle at his side. "Ishida, you know the plan." Said man nodded and grabbed the two Cait Shelter mages. Before they could say anything, they disappeared in a flash step.
"Man, next time he should warn them, that technique could give them headaches," he grunted.
"What are you thinking of, Ichigo?" Erza asked.
"I asked him along with his fellow guildmates to search for that particular someone." He said, "After they found him, Wendy will restore him. This is because of previous events, there is a possibility he will suffer amnesia, so will use him in our favor as we search for Nirvana. This will possibly attract Oracion Seis, but the magic can't be sealed for long as it started to leak out and killing flora and fauna. We have to destroy it."
"What do you mean?" Natsu asked.
Ichigo reached inside his pocket and took out something from it. It was a plant, a wilted one and was black in color. "This is what I meant. I saw this while on the way here and I took it." the others nodded in understanding. Just before he could continue, Erza walked over to him and stopped in front of him. What Ichigo wasn't expecting is her face showing a slightly sad look. She whispered soft enough to prevent others from hearing her."That someone, do you mean him?"
Knowing she just wanna confirm her thoughts, the former captain decided to tell the truth, "Yes. He is the one."
He noticed a torrent of emotions flashed in her eyes before it stopped, showing a determined expression, "I understand." She stepped back as he nodded. He then looked over at Ichiya and nodded to him, "Ichiya, use that painkilling perfume of yours."
"Hai!" He then took out a test tube from his pouch and placed his thumb at the cork, "Come everyone, take a whiff of my painkilling perfume!" He popped out the cork and a light green mist flowing out of the tube with a fragrant smell. The effect was instantaneous as everyone feel the pain from their injuries were receding.
"Ah...what a nice smell." Sherry complimented.
"Yeah...my pain is going away." Lucy agreed.
"Men!..." Ichiya said out of the blue with his usual posing.
"I wish he could cut out the posing part, though..." Lucy muttered with a sweatdrop.
"That's our sensei for ya!" the Trimens exclaimed.
"They changed the way they call him again," Lucy deadpanned.
"I'm not even saying anything anymore," Gray said with displeasure.
Ichigo walked over to Natsu and beckoned him to sit up, which he complied. As he sat down, the strawberry kneel beside him and his palms started to glow green in colour. He then place his glowing hands on his wounds, healing them. He smirked as he said, "Now I will heal all your wounds and then, we would be defeating bad guys in no time."
...
Deep in the Worth Woodsea. This is a place which used to be a city of ancients. It is said they performed rituals in this cave by shutting Shrine Maidens inside, where they would hear the voices of the Gods.
However, now it is being used by Oracion Seis as their base of operations.
Brain was livid. Making his anger known, he punched the walls of the cave with full force, creating a side crater. He was so close to acquire the location of the sealed Nirvana. With the small fries aside, he would have, if not for a certain orange haired Shinigami getting in the way.
Worse still, with little clues, he actually figured out their plans, making their only goal in jeopardy.
And is because of this, he was pissed off.
"Dammit!" he bellowed, "That bastard division captain! He figured everything out! He is a bigger threat than the whole alliance itself!"
"Calm down, Brain." Cobra said. "It wouldn't help matters if we just stay here and lament our small defeat."
"We underestimated of what he is capable of," Racer said. He was awake halfway back to their base. He was injured thanks to Ichigo's unexpected speed of attack, and that made him slightly pissed off, "No one is faster than me."
"He just caught you off guard," Brain told him, "No one is faster than you."
"His power's worth millions, yes!" Hoteye stated.
"Is that all you can ever think about?" Cobra chided.
"Jeez, everything you see is money and nothing else." Angel said with a sweatdrop.
"As long as you have money, you can even buy love, yes!" Hoteye stated with a bright glow around him.
"Oh is that so?" Cobra mocked, his scowl deepening.
"By the way, Brain." Racer said, "Who is that little girl you wanted to capture?"
"She has something to do with Nirvana?" Cobra asked.
"Doesn't like it to me." Angel added.
"She is a user of Sky Magic." Brain stated, "In other words, she can use healing magic."
"Healing Magic?!" Racer exclaimed.
"Lost Magic..." Andel softly muttered.
"An ancient magic that was thought to be forgotten..." Cobra briefly explained.
"Ooh, this smells like money to me." Hoteye said with a hungry look in his eyes.
"Yes, that little girl," Brain said. "She is the key to Plan B."
Everyone widen their eyes in realization of what their leader meant.
"Impossible!" Cobra exclaimed.
"Exactly!" Brain said, "We need her to resurrect him!" He then turned to Racer, "Racer, have you rested enough?"
"Yeah," Racer said, "My back still hurt slightly by the hit, but I can manage."
"Okay then, bring him here before the alliance found him." Brain ordered, "If you saw the little girl while on the way, capture her."
"That will take a long time." Racer grunted, "It'll take for even me an hour, maybe slightly longer in my condition."
"No matter," the leader shrugged.
"I see," Cobra said, "If we resurrect him, Nirvana is as good as found. Is that what you're thinking, Brain?"
"Cobra, Hoteye, Angel," Brain called out, "Continue to search for Nirvana."
"But is we resurrect him, that won't be necessary." Angel reasoned.
"Don't forget the possible threat the Shinigami and his old partner, the Quincy could pose," Brain countered, "We need to take precautionary actions."
"What about you, Brain?" Cobra asked.
"Just in case, Midnight and I will remain here." Brain said.
"It doesn't look like Mid's going to do anything, though..." Hoteye muttered.
"Ah, well, guess we're off then." Cobra said.
"Hey, let race!" Angel cheerfully said, "The first one to find Nirvana will-"
"Gets 1 million jewels! Yes!" Hoteye interrupted.
"I million? That's a hell lot..." Angel said to him in annoyance.
"Now off you go, my prayers," Brain said, "The faster you leave, the faster we'll acquire Nirvana." His face then turned into a sinister sneer "Magic that switches Darkness for Light, and Light for Darkness!"
Finally finished! Damn, I hate writers blocks, considering I wrote this story solo and no beta readers, I'm glad I actually finished this chapter. Hope you guys like it. And sorry for the really late update!
