"...Why don't you just give up?" Aizen said, looking at the hunched figure in front of him. Urahara was on his knees, panting heavily, with endless cuts all over his body, but he still held his blade high, blocking Aizen's sword from dealing him yet another deadly cut.

"...and why... would I do that..." Urahara panted.

Shit, seems like I will have to use "that". I hoped that I could settle this without it, but it seems I have no choice. Urahara thought. He started to stagger up, still holding his sword to block Aizen's. He lurched violently for a second, like a drunken man, but eventually was standing firm on his two feet.

"What do you think you can do in that condition? Just because you are now standing, it doesn't mean..." Aizen said, but was interrupted by an overwhelming surge of reiatsu from Urahara. He stepped back, terrified by the monstrous killing intent that flooded him, and felt his legs tremble just a little.

I see... he has finally decided to release his demon...

Suddenly Aizen felt deadly presence behind him. He moved, to block the sword and barely managed. He then cloaked himself and made an illusion of himself continuing to fight Urahara, but before he could get far away, Urahara slashed the apparition, and moved towards the real Aizen for the kill.

Crap! Why don't my illusions work on him?

"Tsk, tsk. You expect to defeat me with such pathetic tricks?" Came a deep, growling voice from Urahara's lips.

"Don't get cocky!" Aizen shouted, before sending an illusion of ten of himself surrounding Urahara. They all then thrust one hand each forward and called in unison: "Hado no. 33: Sōkatsui!"

Ten large bursts of blue flame collided with Urahara and a giant blue explosion burst out from where Urahara had been. Almost instantly, however, the flame disappeared, and Urahara was there, untouched. There was a faint red outline surrounding him which disappeared once the explosion had gone. He then stared at Aizen with his pure white eyes, and Aizen felt himself shiver. Those eyes... made him feel like he was exposed, and the mental walls he had built to protect himself felt like they were shattering into nothingness. He suddenly snapped out of it when he noticed Urahara had disappeared from where he had been. He looked behind him, but it was too late.

Behind Aizen, Urahara was there, with his sword driven through Aizen's chest, with the tip of the sword protruding out.

On the other side of Karakura town, the sounds of clashing and explosions could be heard up in the sky. There was Yoruichi and Haribel, who had been exchanging blows for almost half an hour.

Uppercut, block...move to the left! Side stab, block again, keep moving! Watch out, she's trying to get behind you! Were a few of the countless thoughts that ran through Haribel mind. She knew that this Yoruichi-person's powers may exceed hers, and if so, she had better crush them now while she still had sufficient strength left.

"Why are you holding back? Show me your true potential!" Haribel said, stepping back from Yoruichi and pausing for a moment. The scene around them was chaos, but then again, that was case everywhere in Karakura town. By some miracle, the final pillar still stood, but was looking slightly precarious.

"Alright, but I'm not gonna hold back," Yoruichi grinned, baring her teeth. "Bankai!"
