Miuri sighed in relief as Benitenchio quickly moved to her side and began to untie her. Mamoru moved next to Ayuma and Grimmjow. As soon as her hands were untied Miuri reached out with her mind. Ulquiorra! When Maruto had caught them he had thrown Ulquiorra far away and then tied her up.

And apparently distance made it harder to use her Shikai power. Ulquiorra where are you?! She flinched as she watched Ayuma go flying into Grimmjow. Maruto had summoned four people. Miuri didn't recognize any of them.

The first one headed towards Mamoru followed by the second. Both were soul reapers with dark hair. One was a woman and the other was a man.

The third controlled corpse was a woman with a large bust and curly pink hair. She headed towards Benitenchio followed by the fourth one, a man with no hair and a large tattoo running up and down his neck and scalp.

Right as Miuri was getting up she felt a foot hold her down. It was the man known as Yaru.

"Now then Ayuma." Maruto snapped his fingers and Yaru had a blade to Miuri's neck. Her blood froze.

"Yaru." Ayuma whispered. Her boyd was shaking. "Maruto!" Ayuma's voice made everyone freeze. It was darker than Miuri had ever heard. Even Benitenchio looked shocked.

Maruto was the only one who wasn't shocked, he was smiling. "There you go Ayuma. If you don't want your friend to die-."

He was cut off as Ayuma shot at him. Their blades clashed in a loud bang. As if that was the signal everyone started fighting again. Mamoru and Shikai Nnoitora against the two soul reaper puppets. Benitenchio and Shikai Szayel against the other two puppets. And Grimmjow… he was gone.

Ayuma what are you doing? Miuri watched her friend. Yaru stayed silent with his blade still at Miuri's neck. Ayuma though… She was… crazed. And Miuri was scared. Mamoru was laughing as she swung at him. He even seemed to be having difficulty but he was laughing. Ayuma wasn't saying anything. Swing after swing of furious strikes. Maruto took a step back and then fell. Ayuma swung down, and at that moment Miuri felt the blade leave her neck. Yaru was then blocking Ayuma's blade.

"Now Ayuma." Maruto smrked. "Can you kill Yaru?"

Yaru and Ayuma began to fight. Miuri stood up slowly and touched her neck. She had been so close to death. Ulquiorra…

"Miuri."

Miuri jumped and looked to see Ulquiorra flying towards her. Relief flooded Miuri's ches as she held out her arms and caught her partner. "Ulquiora!"

"Are you alright?" Even his monotone voice sent relief into Miuri's heart.

"I'm fine now."

"What did I miss?"

Miuri looked up and froze. Blood was splattered over Ayuma. A large cut ran down her left arm, but there was also a large wound across Yaru's chest.

"Wonderful!" Maruto laughed. "That's the Ayuma I love!"

"Ayuma stop!" Mamoru yelled. "That's enough!" Ayuma kept fighting Yaruk.

"Oh she won't listen to you now." Maruto laughed. "All she's focused on now is the blood lust. Ayuma, oh wonderful Ayuma. Once you get her like this there is no stopping her or getting in her way!"

"Ayuma stop!" Mamoru rushed towards her to grab her arm.

Miuri almost cried out as Ayuma's blade struck out and sliced across Mamoru's chest. He stumbled back, but the wound healed quickly. And Ayuma didn't say anything. She kept fighting with Yaru.

"AYUMA!" Benitenchio growled.

"Isn't she wonderful?" Maruto laughed. "Oh once you get her like this there is no stopping her. Her pure bloodlust is perfect. There is nothing to stop her. I would advise staying back unless you want to die."

"She really does fit Grimmjow like this." Ulquiorra whispered.

"Ayuma." Miuri tightened her fist. Ayuma didn't even seem to be aware of her friends. She only had eyes for Yaru and Maruto. Miuri had never thought she would be scared of her friend… but right now… She was scared. She was really scared.
