Sojukin cracked his jaw again as he watched Taza flip around and thought that it was a little ironic that, the one that taunted him the most was turning out to be the most like him. He chuckled at this and smiled broadly as he stretched his legs a little while Taza spoke, then he realized he was getting bored. He sighed as Taza continued to speak and said his come back was lame. "Well sometimes, the basics are the ones that sting the most and speaking the basics...Cero." Sojukin said simply sweeping his hand forward at Taza firing the bright blue beam of reitsu straight at the second espada. He smiled as he used sonido to rush back to his zanpakuto.
A little bit away, a crowd of arrancar was gathering watching the two spar, just when the cero was fired and they found themselves knocked back by the force of it. "What the hell is he thinking!" They cried out as the friendly spar suddenly became a full blown bout. They panicked as the air suddenly got hotter around them and Sojukin hovered over the weakest one.
"I'm not crazy...I'm just HUNGRY." The espada bit down into the arrancar's shoulder tearing off a chunk of its shoulder, before hopping back up onto the roof of Hueco Mundo and sitting there waiting for Taza to retrieve his blade so they could really start their fight.

Taza’s eyes widened as he felt Sojuken charge a large amount of riatsu in his hand. “Son of a bitch!” He yelled as he the blue beam started down its path towards him. He went into a soindo, hardly in time to dodge. He watched as his ocean blue hair moved in the wind with the Cero. It seemed to go in slow motion, only a few inches away from him he watched as it slowly creped past him. His feet carried him onwards, the distance between him and his blade growing short in a matter of seconds. He watched as the lesser arrancar screamed in horror, and he remembered why he hated Sojukin so much, the man was just as likely to stab you in the back as he was to help you against a shingami.
Taza grinned as his fingers grazed across the hilt of his Zanpakuto. They swirled around it before grasping the whole handle in there firm grip. “Alright Sojukin, lets play ball.” He said as he looked at where Sojukin stood. He unsheathed his blade and used Soindo to approach him. He landed on the other side of the roof and said. “You want a war, you’ve got it.” He separated his blade into two different swords and crossed them before saying. “Desaparezca a las nubes!” As he said this his mask grew across his body, covering him in the marble like armor. There where a few slits in the mask that covered his face, allowing him to breathe easily, his eyes remained uncovered. Streaks of red swirled across his armor in a completely random ‘pattern’ if you can call it that. “I hope your read Sojukin!” He said before he started to swing downwards with his right blade and stab low and wide with his left. But before either strike was finished Taza was instantly behind Sojukin, proceeding to finish his attack.

Sojukin dusted himself off as he turned around as Taza began to speak. “You want a war, you’ve got it!” Sojukin smiled at those words and held out his blade and smirked.
“Then let us dance to the melody of our clashing blades and reitsu.” Sojukin said, before releasing his resurrection. “Arise, Brujo” He said coldly as the bright green flames engulfed him before turning black; the area’s temperature increased dramatically making the lesser Arrancar pant and some even faint as the blazing reitsu engulfed them. Sojukin came out clad in his armored robe fitting that of a warlock. Its dark red hue reminiscent of blood shone in the light while the black parts incited near insanity to those who looked upon it. Sojukin’s new boots crunched into the stone work of Hueco mundo as he hefted his purple bone katana up and pointed it at Taza as he came out of his resurrection. “Come now my rather arrogant friend, let us end this dance, before one of the Horrors decide we’re taking this a little too far.” He had used his tongue to use sonor and had moved accordingly when he felt the rebound return from behind him. He had his blade ready to block from the front, but prompt spun on his heel and caught the blade sending it around past his arm pit where he had lifted his arm and conjured a fuego to launch into Taza’s face. “Say Good-bye to your face.” Sojukin mocked as the ball of green fire plummeted down towards the Dos Espada. He promptly sonidoed away after saying such and firing the intense flames rushing over to the walls of Hueco Mundo and jumping down into the infinite desert where the heat of his Reitsu instantly glassed the portion of desert he was standing in. Striking down on the glass, he carved his symbol into it and smiled as he waited for Taza to come at him again.
"OI I HOPE THAT ONE ATTACK WASN'T ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU FORGET ABOUT LITTLE OLD ME! COME ON YOU WORTHLESS, DICKLESS WONDER! DON'T MAKE ME STEAL ALL YOUR SAKE AGAIN!"

Taza grinned as Sojukin blocked his attack. “Nice robes.” He said right before sojukin made an attempt to attack him. However, Taza just flew backwards, his greatly enhanced speed allowing him to dodge outrun his attack without the use of soindo. He flew out high before circling back around, letting his riatsu flare out from him like giant blue tentacles of fire. “If you ever touch my sake again ill kill you!” He said as he put his swords back together and teleported above Sojukin. He extended one hand and instantly fired a cero at him, he then moved quickly behind him and sliced at his back, then at his side, soon he engulfed him in quick sudden attacks from almost all sides. His speed was as his soindo was before he resurrected, it was Taza’s only true gain, his massive increase in speed would be his advantage over Sojukin. But Sojukin could hit harder most likely and take more if he head to guess. He had hardened his armor with Heiro to the best of his abilities, and that was very extensive, but it would not hold against numerous hits from sojukin. "Come on cock sucker! Is this all youve got?!"

Sojukin stomped down on the glass around him as Taza darted towards. The glass flew up making a sort of blade barrier around Sojukin, but he knew it would do little more than annoy Taza with his hierro. He simply grinned and used the glass as a kind of measurement to show him exactly where Taza was striking from at that moment. Sojukin curled himself in a bit smiled deeply and spun around smashing into Taza’s blade and thrusting forward as he finished his cock-sucker statement. “I’ll show you what I can do, you worthless excuse for an espada.” The heat around Sojukin suddenly became unbearable as white hot flames sprouted out from his arms and blade exceeding over 800 degrees celcius, hot enough to melt the glass in the air around them causing it to drip toward the ground as the pair was completely engulfed in. “Zealot Slayer, you asshole.” Sojukin said as the cuts that had been inflicted earlier opened slightly and trickles of blood ran down his sides. “I’ll show you what true pain is, when I desecrate your corpse inside my stomach and turn you into little more than ash in the wind!”
The Arrancar that had been watching dropped dead where they stood many of them two week to withstand the massive output from Sojukin, others unable to stand the heat and their blood evaporating. Sojukin pushed his blade forward toward Taza, aiming to stab straight through his hierro and smirked as he pushed it faster and flung the flames from his technique from his blade towards him as a separate entity.

Taza was hardly even annoyed by the glass and kept on his assault, however when Sojukin decided to get serious so did he. “Alright Solja boy, lets play.” He said as he watched him activate Zelot Slayer. “I wonder how long you can keep that move up.” He said as he smiled watching Sojukins wounds open up more. The heat engulfed him and his vision blurred. As the flames extended towards him Taza simply teleported about 100 meters away and began to flick his blade around. “Come now Sojukin, is that all you can do? If so, ill destroy you.” Hiding the fact that he had been so affected by the heat. After a few seconds weakened his hirro and cut his finger before reactivating it and teleporting a good ways above Sojukin. His two fingers had charged a large amount of riatsu and he said. “See ya!” As he fired his Gran Rey Cero straight at him. Hit or miss he would soindo away. He was in no hurry, however, such an attack would surly take a lot of riatsu to maintaine. And Taza had all the time in the world where as Sojukin was living in a hourglass. The heat was definitely going to be a hindrance in any hand to hand attacks. But so long as he kept his distance it shouldn’t be to bad. He was sweating underneath his armor and he cursed his bad luck. “This thing should have came with a cooling system.

“Solja Boy? What the hell man? Are you some kind of crappy rapper?” Sojukin said as he watched him fade away as he stabbed through the air. “You know that teleporting technique is bull shit Taza!” Sojukin screamed in fury as he used sonido to escape the gigantic cero coming his way; he knew Taza had this predicted, but he didn’t know if the king of speed even realized that he had created two Fuego de Diabillo before he used sonido and let them fly wide around the cero. He crunched the sand away from the cero and watched as a crater was formed from the massive beam’s impact, Sojukin was hardly impressed, in fact he chuckled and looked up at Taza as his Fuego’s came at him from behind. “YOU COULDN’T HIT THE BROAD SIDE OF A GIANT YOU WORTHLESS EXCUSE OF A DRUNK!” Sojukin shouted, then sonidoed near Taza grabbing for his leg as he stabbed up at his groin, hoping the fool would kick at him or attempt to block him in someway. He grinned and smiled a toothy smile as he lunged at Taza, he hadn’t had this much fun in such a long time and he couldn’t help but enjoy himself. He however, was neglecting the fact of how far they were getting from Hueco Mundo and how much closer they were getting to the Hollow Forest. He breathed in and out, in the practiced form he had been taught and emptied his mind of any distractions aside from his opponent and his blade; smart mouthing was one thing, but letting one’s self get distracted in the heat of battle was one thing. The world faded around him leaving only Taza and himself and their thin outlines of Reitsu in his poor pesquisa.

Taza felt the closing riatsu behind him and chuckled as he threw his blade into the air and jumped back. He charged two ceros carefully, aiming at both before letting them lose. The two ceros smashed into Sojukin’s Fuego de Diablo, exploding with the force of a large mortar. He grabbed his blade in the nick of time, only to see Sojukin gunning for his leg. He went into the shape of a ball and spun quickly, grazing his sword at Sojukin’s head, he then teleported away, unable to stand being so close to his heat. “Like your one to talk, your attack is a coward’s move! It wouln’t allow anyone to get near you.”
His adrenaline was pumping, his heart kicking the inside of his chest like a horse, damn it, he was really starting to enjoy this. His eyes had narrowed, and where taking in every movement sojukin made, the heated air around him making it hard to actually see 5 meters around him. This was definitely a battle of the titans, now to see which was the better.

Sojukin exhaled and inhaled slowly, the flames around him moving with his breath. He looked straight at Taza, debating, questioning and decided that Zealot Slayer wouldn’t work much longer and would have been better to use later, but for now he couldn’t regret; he had to lure in his prey and make him take a blow no matter what. He looked straight ahead at Taza, then shot straight forward using Sonido at Taza closing the gap in less then a second as he focused a neat orb of energy into his fist, that was surround by fire. The air whistled as he spun the blade horizontally at Taza’s chest and extended the flames so that the ranged was increased with it. He could predict it wouldn’t work, but he wanted Taza to believe he was getting desperate. He could already feel Zealot Slayer being to cool off and knew before long it would be gone and would leave him at the mercy of Taza’s speed. He clicked his tongue as he swung at Taza and looked him dead in the eyes. “Well, when it is what I have, I will use it as I see fit.”
The smog came then bursting forth out of Sojukin’s throat like a stream of ash from a volcano. It had no heat of its own, but its adverse effect could sting the eyes of anyone in it and would slow their movements to a near creep. Sojukin’s tongue click had served a double purpose as the sonar admitted gave him a perfect idea of where Taza was. The stage was all set. All he had to do now was wait for Taza to take the bait. “Whats the matter Taza, do your eyes sting?” Sojukin asked after he had pulled back the feigned strike and came back around from his side, setting the very smog around them blaze with his own heat.

Taza looked at Sojukin as he lunged at him with all his might. He was obviously nearing his limit, and soon he would be at Taza’s mercy. He separated his blade, before flying above Sojukin and his strike in the form of a ball. But this ball had two teeth, like silver fangs they hungered for Sojukin’s flesh as the ripped at him as Taza rolled over him. Taza broke the ball as he passed Sojukin’s head. He slashed in the style of a X down his back; before stopping 30 feet away from Sojukin. He was about to move back as Sojukin turned to meet him, breathing out a toxic gas of ash. Taza sheathed his sword and grabbed his eyes. “Fuck!” He yelled, but he wasn’t so defenseless as Sojukin would like to believe, as the ash caught fire, and Sojukin went to strike, Taza vanished. A mile above Sojukin Taza closed his eyes and pointed his fingers down. “Take this.”
He knew exactly where Sojukin was thanks to his monstrous riatsu. He charged two ceros pointed straight at him and fired. But it didn’t end there; he started to shoot a hail storm of instant ceros and ballas at him. Like a field of death, Taza unleashed his might against Sojukin, one or two wouldn’t really hurt him, but the amount, and the shotgun like spread of them would hit and the consistency and frequency of the blasts would get threw. Unfortunately, it was draining him to do this, soon he would have thrown half his riatsu in this fight. But he wouldn’t keep this barrage up to long, just long enough to get Sojukin disabled and his sword to his throat.

Sojukin looked up as he shot out of the smoke and the hail of balas and ceros came down at him. He grinned as he looked up at Taza and revealed the purple orb in his hand. Smiling, his killing intent easy to see now that Hueco Mundo was nowhere to be seen and the hollow forest grew near. He thrusted the orb forward, squeezing it and a horrid scream released from it, then a flurry of tendrils as he shouted out. “MALDICION CERO!” The world was soon drawned out by the wide ceros purple light as it ripped through the balas and instant ceros charging up directly at Taza. Sojukin coughed as his arm singed from the massive output and he guessed that put him at about 40% of his power left. He groaned as a bala struck him in the chest, but held onto the cero hoping it would strike Taza and send them flying into the hollow forest.
“I HATE TO ADMIT IT TAZA, BUT THIS A DAMN GOOD FIGHT!” Sojukin shouted out above the scream of his cero and felt every ounce of energy in him, ticking away. He felt weaker than he had in a very long time. He just couldn’t believe the drunk could fight so well. Though, he had to admit his speed attribute was probably more handling that than anything. He coughed as he felt the smoke exit his lungs again, he always hated it when a little extra of the smog got caught.

Taza looked in horror as Sojukin’s attacks ripped threw his own. “Shit!” He yelled as he started to fly into the air. A Gran Rey cero would definitely be taxing at this point but it was his only hope. He dapped his two fingers into a small wound he had with sustained early on threw his mask. He charged up the riatsu, compressed it into a small but enormously powerful beam and aimed at the first one. “YOUR TOUGH SON OF A BITCH SOJUKIN! LEARN TO GIVE UP!” He yelled as he shot his beam out, the blazing blue beam stretched down, covering the distance over twice as fast as Sojukin’s beam. The highly compressed and super powerful beam ripped apart Sojukin’s wider and more spread out beam. He dragged the beam threw the ceros and one by one destroyed them. However, he failed to get them all in time.
Time slowed, his body turned backwards, he brought his fingers up to meet the beam that traveled for him. No time to speak, no time to breathe, he watched as his hand cut into only part of the blast. The rest hit, exploding not only Sojukin’s but also his own beam. The pain seared across his chest, blast threw half of his armor, burning the skin underneath. He fell out of the sky, smoking like a burnt steak. He fell for over a mile before he regained consciousness. All he could do was slow himself down a tad before he smashed into the scorched glass. The glass shattered for 40 yards around him as he made a small crater. His body flew threw the earth that was atop the hollow forest, causing a cave-in so to speak. Several openings in the earth appeared that stretched for miles. The doorway was open, for all to see. Taza felt a several presences gather, they where strong. Menos.. Adjuchas and Vostro Lorde even. Taza’s body was falling threw a large hole. He was still to out of it to really fight or even move yet. “Sojukin, you best kill these bastards.” He whispered as he watched them dive down after him.

“OH YOU HAVE GOT TO BE SHITTING ME!!!!” Sojukin cried out as the blast smashed into his body ripping the top of his robe wide open and forced his hollow hole even wider was blood poured into it. He coughed a good deal of his own blood as his descent began and his body felt weak. His eyes fluttered weakly as he lost consciousness and fell down through the same hole that Taza had created. He gasped awakening himself as he hurtled down through the air, all he could feel was the rush of air against his skin and how brilliant the eternal sun felt against his now exposed flesh and the boney skulls on his chest. A flash of light caught his eye, it was sun reflecting off of Taza’s hierro and he coughed. “COME ON TAZA DON’T JUST SIT THERE AND FALL…THOUGH I REALLY CAN’T TALK MUCH.” Sojukin cried out down to him as he noticed the hollows around them. “Jesus…” He said as he kept falling, he was done to at 30% now…that last attack that had hit him had trounced him big time. He sighed and gripped the handle of his blade as he looked down and looked at Taza.
“You best kill these bastards.” Sojukin rolled his eyes, his body was in just as much trouble as Taza’s if not more, the lazy asshole was just using him, he thought as he attempted to summon up his tormentors, but didn’t get past a few black puffs of smoke. Sighing, he gripped his blade harder.
“FINE GOD DAMNIT! GRAN FUEGO DE DIABILIO!” The massive orb of fire screamed into existence in an instant and Sojukin launched it straight into a field of the Hollows around Taza, searing the flash of a few as they went to tear at the espada. Sojukin sonidoed down between one of the adjuchas and Taza and made a perfect cut across the idiot, before the Vasto shot a small beam through his chest causing blinding amounts of pain. He didn’t know what it was, but he knew it simply did not feel good. He gasped and struggled for air as he began to fall with Taza, just as the tree line approached and they were shrouded in its branches and concealed in the massive amounts of quartz, though the hollows didn’t stop coming. Sojukin just grinned as his eyes got heavy. “Suck on this…Cero.” He waved his hand, expending another 3% of his energy and blasted the Vasto in the chest, though it didn’t appear to do much more than aggravate the great hollow.

Taza finally became aware enough to do something as Sojukin blasted the vostro lorde in the chest. He flew over to Sojukin and pushed threw one of the branches then another and another. “Exhale.” He said before waiting a second. The air around them seemed to circle to Sojukin, before it was completely gone and they seemed to be in a vacuum for an instant, but in that instant it felt like hours. Then, they where threw another side of the hollow forest entirely. Thousands of feet of quarts between them and there pressures. Then they landed, deep in the hollow forest. Taza had only slowed them down, not stopped there descent, and the impact hurt, bad. Taza coughed as he was flung several feet from where Sojukin was. Blood poured from the scorched skin, and his mind was clouded once more.
Slowly he managed to stand up, his resurrection ending as he reverted back to his normal form. “God damnit.” He said as he looked up the massive shaft. There where miles and miles of quarts and hundreds of different branches stopping them. It would take time to get out of here. “Can you move?” He said before looking back at Sojukin.

Sojukin woke back up just in time to notice the air around him and Taza had become a vacuum, he braced himself and caught himself on his arms as the pair crashed to the ground. Sojukin almost screamed as he hit and blood came out of his mouth. He vomited and looked up whipping his mouth as he could still get readings on the hollows from his sonar. He looked back up and shrugged a bit as he leaned against a tree and looked up. There was no light in the air they were in, just an unnatural dark glow that seemed impossible, but allowed them to see. He looked around and touched the quartz tree, it was rough and cold and had no reitsu what so ever. “Damnit,” he thought.
“Can you move?”
“BARELY GOD DAMNIT!” Sojukin shouted at him, angry and blaming the whole situation on Taza, though he knew fully well it was mostly his own. He whipped his lip and could feel an hollow approaching, he looked up and it was just one of their corpses coming down. He coughed and crawled toward it, then gripped its arm and bit viciously into it. Blood flew as he feasted on the corpse and slowly his wounds healed, it got him back to functioning easily, but everything still hurt and his reitsu reserves were nearly emptied. He looked up at Taza as he ripped through a leg tendon and felt mildly guilty. “You want some?” He asked chewing the rubbery tendon like a piece of beef jerky. He looked away before he could answer as he thought he heard something behind them, then turned back to him and ripped another piece of tendon to gnaw on. “Its actually pretty tasty.”
