Kalia and the others were separated from each other. They were able to get in the Seireitei thanks to Kukaku's firework specialty, but it caused them to be separated in four different groups. Kalia was with Orihime and Uryu as they were heading for the ground.
"What are we going to do? We're going to hit the ground." Kalia said.
"Both of you hold onto me." Orihime said as both of them held on tight. "Santan Kesshun!" Orihime formed her triangular shield and protected them from the impact, but left a large crater.
"Orihime, Kalia, are the both of you okay?" Uryu said.
"I think so." Orihime said.
"I'm alright, but it looks like we got separated from everyone. I hope they're all okay." Kalia said. Sai was with Chad and Sai was in a state of panic on what's going to happen to them because they had nothing to stop their fall.
"What do we do?" Sai shouted. Chad held on tight and Sai saw something was forming around his right arm. Chad thrusted his arm and launched some energy and used it as a cushion for them. He left a giant crater in the ground, but at least they were safe.
"Are you alright?" Chad said.
"I think so. How did you do that?" Sai said.
"There really isn't time to explain. It's only a matter of time until soul reapers appear here." Chad said. He grabbed Sai and started moving.
"I can run on my own!" Sai said. Michael was on his own. He was heading towards a group of soul reapers waiting for him. Michael formed his spear and used the wind of his attack. It blew all the soul reapers away and soften his blow.
"What was that?"
"How did he do that?" Michael didn't stick around to answer any questions as he head off on his own. Byakuya was on his own as well. He was heading for another group and they were ready to fight, but he vanished.
"Where did he go?"
"Split up and find him." Byakuya was able to land on a roof and was left undetected.
"It would seem that I'm on my own. That's probably for the best." Byakuya claimed. Kalia, Orihime, and Uryu were safe and wondered what to do next.
"What do we do? We need to find everyone, but we need to get to Ryo before this execution begins." Kalia said.
"Calm down. We still got some time before that will happen." Uryu said. "If your friends are with Chad or Byakuya, they'll be alright."
"But we saw Michael get blown away on his own." Kalia said.
"I'm sure he'll find the way. We all will most likely end up in the same place." Orihime said.
"Which is where?" Kalia said.
"If I remember correctly, Ryo will be held in a white tower near a cliff. That's where Rukia was held when she was sentence to the same fate." Uryu said.
"So we should head there?" Kalia said. That was when she began to sense multiple spiritual pressures. "Come out of hiding you morons." Multiple soul reapers came out of hiding.
"Give it up, we've got you surrounded."
"Judging from these guys, we can take them easily." Kalia said.
"You can say that gain." Uryu said as he formed his bow.
…
Ryo
Ryou walked up a staircase of his new prison cell. He tried looking out the windows because he heard the alarms go off earlier, but he couldn't tell what was going on.
"Something has happened out there. I heard the alarms, but what is it? Was it an invasion, hollow attack, ryoka?" Ryo said. He couldn't see much on what was happening. "It's no use. I can't see out of these windows and I can't sense any spiritual pressure." Ryo couldn't help, but wonder what is happening out there. He felt it didn't matter since he felt it had nothing to do with him. Little did he know that this had everything to do with him.
…
Kalia
Kalia and Uryu made quick work of the soul reapers that surrounded them.
"Beating guys like this is so easy." Kalia said.
"Don't get overconfident. These might have been lowered rank soul reapers, but third seat soul reapers are tough." Uryu said. "Facing against lieutenants and captains will be completely different."
"Don't worry about her. Kalia is as strong as her father and you know how strong he was, stronger than any of us." Orihime said.
"Thanks, Mom. Now just show me where this white tower is so we can break in and get Ryo out." Kalia said.
"Let's see." Orihime said as she looked around.
"It's this way. We better get going. I can hear more soul reapers are on their way." Uryu said as he led the way. They failed to notice that one of the defeated soul reapers and he overheard them since he held a smirk on his face.
….
Head Captain
Sankado was in his office and stared down at the Seireitei as it was reported that the intruders have entered and are on the move in four different locations.
"I'm coming in sir." Another captain walked into the office. He had black hair with a grey streak running down the right side of his face.
"Doramin Hatake." Sankado said. Doramin Hatake, captain of squad eight. "I'm glad you could stop by. I wanted to speak to you about our little emergency."
"What about it?" Doramin said.
"You're squad is the only one without a lieutenant and there's the matter of Ryo Kuchiki, a member from your squad." Sankado said. "I know of the connection you hold with him. I just want to make sure your mind is in the right place."
"Of course." Doramin said.
"I'm glad to hear that. I've sensed that only about seven ryoka have infiltrated the Seireitei." Sankado said. "We might hold the numbers, but that doesn't matter. Even the smallest army can emerge triumphant if they find a flaw in their enemies' forces."
"You don't need to worry. I always stand by the law. You were the one that taught me that." Doramin said.
"I hope so, with Ryo Kuchiki's life on the line." Sankado said. Doramin felt bad about leaving Ryo to die, but he didn't know how he was going to get him to go freely.
…
Lieutenants
A lieutenants meeting was called. One of the lieutenants had black, perfectly combed, hair and his outfit was sleeveless as he bared the badge of squad six on his arm.
"Hey…Sakumoto!" The man named Sakumoto turned around and saw Giku walking up to him.
"Hey, Giku." Sakumoto said.
"Do you know what this meeting is about?" Giku said.
"Probably about the ryoka. I'm just hoping that when I come across them, they don't harm my good looking face. I also got a date later." Sakumoto said.
"You look for any excuse to get out of work." Giku said.
"What's wrong with having a little fun?" They both turned around to see a woman that looked tired.
"Hi, Rangiku. Did you just get up from your afternoon nap?" Giku said.
"Yeah so this better be good." Rangiku said. They went into the meeting hall with all the other lieutenants.
"This lieutenant meeting will now begin. Lieutenant Fusegu Kosomaru of squad four has the floor." A lieutenant that had brown hair that went to his shoulders stepped forward.
"Thank you. I am here to discuss the ryoka." Fusegu said. "My squad is already dealing with injured and we managed to get a description of them. At least seven have been accounted for. One of them has been unidentified, no one got a good look. Four of them are male and two are female. You must also be on guard because one of the women takes the appearance of a soul reaper. She has long auburn hair and carries a zanpakuto on her back with an earring dangling from her left ear." Giku didn't say a word, but he knew who that was. He wasn't certain and surprised, but that sounded like Kalia.
…
Squad Four Barracks
The injured were taken to the barracks of squad four. The captain had short and silver hair with beard growing and had a small sash tired around his waist and captain's coat and wearing white gloves. This man was Kouichi Kami.
'At this rate, we'll have many injured. Fortunately, a majority don't seem to be in critical condition.' Kouichi thought.
"You in there?" Kouichi turned to the door and saw Kenpachi with Yachiru on him.
"Hi there Kooch, Kooch." Yachiru greeted.
"Captain Zeraki, this is a surprise. You never really visit. In fact, you don't practically like my squad." Kouichi said.
"I know that. I just need to talk to a few members to see what they know." Kenpachi said. Kouichi wasn't a fool. Kenpachi wanted to know which of the Seireitei's enemies is the strongest, but that might be a good thing since Kenpachi is much stronger.
"Very well." Kouichi said and stepped out.
"Captain." One of the patience called to him with small breaths and Kenpachi went over. "I know what you want to know. I overheard a group of the ryoka talking."
"Really. So you know which one is the strongest?" Kenpachi said.
"Yes from how they were talking. It's a young woman. Based on what I heard, she's as strong as her father and it sounded like he was a strong man. She goes by the name Kalia ad I know where she's going."
"Kalia? Well it doesn't matter if the opponent is a man or a woman. I'm going kill this girl." Kenpachi said. Kenpachi hasn't changed much. He knew his target and now all he had to do was find her.
….
Kalia
Kalia, Orihime, and Uryu fought through other soul reapers and was able to make it to the bottom of the Senzaikyu thanks to Uryu leading the way.
"This is it." Uryu said. Kalia had a look around to see the place.
"So Ryo is being held somewhere in there? How are we going to find him?" Kalia said.
"He should be held in a white tower. Do you see that cliff?" Orihime said as she pointed towards it. "The tower we're looking for should be close to it." Kalia understood and was ready to go, but Uryu saw something coming right for them.
"Orihime, look out!" Uryu said as he pushed her out of the way, but got hit. Three points of light had his arms and waist pinned to a wall.
"What was that?" Kalia said. A rope made out of energy came and wrapped around Orihime, pinning her movements.
"What's going on?" Orihime said.
"There….on the staircase!" Uryu said. Kalia turned around and saw someone was standing there as he moved down.
"So it is you. You're still alive." He said as he walked down and came into sight. "I heard the description, but I wasn't sure it was you until now. Do you even remember me?"
"I remember you, Giku Sonado." Kalia said. The time has come to settle the score.
