She stood silently as the black walls closed in around her, slowly obscuring her vision until she saw nothing. She felt Ryuu continuing to scream in her mind, offering his strength and rage. Once complete the coffin, which was black and the size of a skyscraper with crosses sticking out from it, glowed a dark purple which faded slowly. The sky was once again bright and blue, Aizen stood before the building and smirked, pleased with himself; only to see it completely shatter in front of his eyes.

Aizen watched eyes wide, as black shards of the coffin flew up towards the sky in a delicate , how had she done this? He stared in disbelief as she stood stock still with her right arm out. Her brown hair whipping violently around her, power crackling, eyes hard. Her wings were folded against her back and hung to the ground as she began to slowly advance toward him.

"Seems like you still haven't noticed, I'm stronger than what you've become." She paused and then continued "what blew away the terrain was my sword." Aizen gasped as he eyes got wider, "lets go Aizen." She jumped toward him slicing across his chest in a movement he couldn't follow, blood spurted up and Aizen disappeared in a phosphorescent flash of light, then he reappeared above her on a cliff clutching his shoulder, panting and grimacing in pain.

He glared down at Ayla, his body vibrating with anger, eyes hard"are you pleased you caught my sword? Are you pleased you shattered my kidou?" He demanded, his voice hard and cold. His eyes twitched and narrowed as his wound bubbled up and began to heal itself "are you pleased you managed to wound me?" She watched with hooded eyes as he worked himself into a fury "do not be so conceited. HUMAN!" He finished, yelling the last word.

She watched as the spot between his eyes that she had thought nothing of popped open and revealed itself to be a third eye, blood dripped from its base and trickled down the bridge of the man's nose and down his right cheek as the man's pupils danced and his head snapped to the right in an inhuman motion. The third eye was all black with a white pupil that jumped around for several seconds then the eye blinked and Aizen's face cracked like a ceramic mask, he let out a roar as waves of purple and black power poured over him and shot toward the sky. Aizen's scream was one of pain as he bent over, head in hands and she saw blood spurt from the spot he was in and begin to pour down the cliff. His energy shattered like glass as his body was transformed, and in front of her stood a being of pure evil sending shivers up her spine and had her hair standing on end. His face was all black with white slits for his eyes and his third eye that stared out of his forehead creepily, where his mouth was had extended to be more of a chesire cat grin stretching from ear to ear in snarling white teeth, his human face was squished on either side of the blackness, and the blackness seeped down his neck and ended in jagged patterns at the top of his shoulders. His wings had morphed into what one would consider "normal" wings three on each side at the tip of each of these wings was what appeared to be an eyeless skull type formation. Three holes were in his chest, in the one closest to his face she saw the gleaming of the hougyoku floating independently, the next hole was at the bottom of his ribs with the final residing where his navel would be. His left hand was all black until the middle of his forearm whereas his right hand appeared to have completely fused with his zanpaktou, it was one long talon as sharp as a sword yet thinner. His feet were no longer human in appearance but were claw like with one hooked talon and black from tip to mid-calf. Her senses on alert she readied her stance warily observing his movements. He rose slowly, smiling an eerie smile that showed off his new, broad, white teeth.

"As I believed. You will not allow will you hougyoku? For me to defeated by a mere human!" She jumped back steeling herself, the skulls on his wings opened their mouths simultaneously blasting purple cero's at her, and she dodged as the landscape was lit up in oranges, reds and yellows from the devastation he was causing. The ground quaked and shuddered as it was thrown into the air; a circle of energy surrounded them and exploded into a mushroom cloud the erupted again and again. Ayla had avoided his attacks but watched the man closely looking for a weakness; she sensed Ryuu nearby and silently told him not to interfere. Tstiayuga nudged at her consciousness gently as reassurance.

"I see" he said eyeing her "the damage of my attack only extends this far." He lunged at her, she closed her eyes and let herself be taken into his wings, and the heads opened their mouths and created a ring like cero around her. Flames danced around her as power snapped and faded revealing the blue sky and white clouds as she slit her eyes open to gaze above her. Thick white bands that sprouted from his wings circled above her as he held her throat.

"Can you hear me Ayla Izanami? It is true for a brief moment you breached a barrier I had not counted on and truly became a transcendent being. Yet your power is nothing but a shadow when compared to mine. There is no point in analyzing or consuming you as you are now. Instead you will meet your death at the hands of a true god. By destroying you I will truly become unstoppable and bid eternal farewell to inferior beings. Prepare to die Ayla Izanami!" Something stirred deep inside her and unfurled in her gut, Ryuu she knew had returned to her as had Tstiayuga, sensing the danger she had no doubt and preparing to lend her the full strength of their combined power. Her eyes drifted shut as she thought of Renji and Shuuhei their mating enabling her to sense that they were ok, sending them a pulse of love she felt nothing but warmth and a flood of relief sent back.

"You think I'll die? From something like this?" She asked simply, her hair falling down into her face obscuring one side, her voice dripping with deadly seriousness. She slapped his hand that was around her throat and he flew backwards, her head down and sickle in the air glowing brightly she faced him. She felt a strong power approaching and smiled; it was about time her friend showed back up.

"It's time we finished this Aizen. I'm sick to death of listening to you talk."
