"WHAM WHAM WHAM!!!" Gantenbainne thrust his fists out like bullets as he repeatidly pounded Panther Lilly in the gut, making bullet like noises as his fists moved faster and faster.

Panther Lilly fell back, panting and sweating as he lashed back with his massive extending blade.

But the blade clanged off of Gantenbainne's hierro in a burst of sparks as he knocked aside the blade over and over with an arm.

"You aren't bad." said Gantenbainne. "You've got masterful swordsmanship, if I didn't have my Hierro, you'd have me somewhat on the ropes. But I'm afraid this aas far as you go with this match."

"I'm not giving in." said Lilly with a grin. "Otherwise Gajeel wouldn't let me hear the end of it. COME ON!! THIS FAIRY ISN'T DONE YET!!"

Panther Lilly launched himself back at Gantenbainne, slashing his sword downwards with a vicious power. The blade smashed into Gantenbanne's forearm and grinded through the Hierro, slicing a cut in Gantenbainne's arm.. a shallow cut, but a cut nontheless.

Gantenbainne leapt back in surprise and looked at his bleeding arm. "Hmm.. your power is growing. Good!! A fair fight is an honorable one by far!"

Gantenbainne launched himself at Panther Lilly and moved his fists like a gattling gun, producing shockwaves with every hit.

Lilly moved the flat of his blade up and down, parrying each and every hit with precise skill, keeping his eyes sharply locked on Gantenbainne's every movement. he then lashed out his left fist and socked Gantenbainne in the jaw.

Gantenbainne was thrown into the air from the blow, and as he was, Lilly slashed his sword in a deadly uppercut, creating a bloody gash across Gantenbainne's torso.

Gantenbainne flipped back and landed on his feet, looking slightly bewildered. "How on Earth did you slice through my Hierro?!"

"I've figured out a trick to it you might say." said Lilly. "Grimmjow once told me that a Hierro is basically a solidified layer of spiritual pressure that's just above the skin, like armor. However, if one gathers precise spiritual pressure along a blade, you can cut through it.. I did that, only with magic energy instead.. concentrating it along my blade.."

"I see." said Gantenbainne. "So now you can injure me more easily. In that case, I'll allow you see more of my power.. En Garde!"

Gantenbainne flashed forward using Sonido and thrust his fist straight into Lilly's face. As the fist connected with Lilly's face, Lilly stood his ground and the fist pushed against the unmoving jaw, a shockwave exploding from the spot and then sizzling there...

Gantenbainne's eyes widened as he watched the unmoving cat grab his forearm and throw him back. Panther Lilly then moved forward and heabutted Gantenbainne straight in the head.

Gantenbainne smashed into the ground, throwing up rubble, letting out a cry of incredulous shock.

"Come on!! Call that a fight!?" said Lilly resting his large blade on his shoulder casually. "I ain't even warmed up yet!!"

Gantenbainne grinned as well as he got up and dusted himself off. "You've got some headbutt warrior cat.. I'll take it you want to go several more rounds then!!"

Gantenbainne flashed towards Lilly again, lashing his fists out in a furious volly of strikes, orange spiritual energy exploding from each attack.

Lilly took each and every blow with amazing resiliance as he stabbed his blade in the ground and began punching back with a rapid fire of punches from his end.

"So trying to counter Meelee with Meelee!?" said Gantenbainne. "Huge mistake warrior cat! UNO!!"

Gantenbainne unleashed a tremendous punch in Lilly's gut.

"DOS!!"

Gantenbainne's punches became a flurry of movements, like that of a gattling gun.

"CIENTROS!!!"

Gantenbainne let out a massive spiritual energy punch straight into Panther Lily's skull, smashing him into the ground...

Panther Lilly rose out of the ground, still grinning as he pushed Gantenbainne's Dragra off of him.

"you withstood a full Uno Dos Cientros!?" Gantenbainne exclaimed in amazement. "Just what kind of monster cat are you!?"

"Well that one's easy!" said Panther Lily. "I'm the cat from FAIRY TAIL!!"

Lilly smashed his right fist straight into Gantenbainne's face. Gantenbainne flew back like a bullet and collided with the opposite wall. Lilly grabbed the handle of his sword and leapt into the air as it's length magically extended again.

Lilly roared and brought the blade smashing down towards Gantenbainne who flashed out of the way with Sonido.

Gantenbainne reappeared right above Lilly and brought down an over head kick straight at Lilly's head.

But before the kick could connect, Lilly brought up his sword and blocked the blow with the flat of his blade, pushing Gantenbainne away from him in mid air.

Lilly then proceeded to smash his sword down repeatidly into Gantenbainne, throwing up explosive amounts of rubble as he did.

There was an explosion of powerful light, and suddenly Lilly was thrown back... and as the dust cleared Gantenbainne appeared, only this time his form had changed.

His arms grew longer and become covered in dome-shaped, armor plating, while his punch daggers now came to resemble dragon heads. Similar plates also extended down his back until they formed into a tail, giving him an appearance reminiscent of an armadillo.

"So this is an Arrancar's Ressureccion form." said Lilly. "I've never seen one up close.."

"You are correct." said Gantenbainne. "This is Dragra's true form. Now you shall see why before my demotion, I was a part of the original Espada!"

Gantenbainne moved in with collosal speed. He moved his fists like lightning, his dragon shaped fists becoming like afterimages in the wake of his collossal increase in power.

Lilly hacked up blood as the full force of the blows smashed into him, and a tremendous blast of spiritual energy surrounded the two, causing Lilly to fly back and smash through several walls into another hall.

Gantenbainne leapt through the holes  in the walls and thrust his fists out, sending out massive blasts of orange spiritual energy. Panther Lilly rolled aside just in time as the blasts exploded near him.

"I'm sorry." said Gantenbainne. "I thought this would make our fight more fair, but apparently all I did was turn this into a one sided brawl."

Lilly stood up slowly, growling as he wiped blood from his chin. "I can't lose.. not now... not when she's in pain.."

Gantenbainnes eyes widened slightly with curiousity. "She?"

"Elli.. she's been crying.. crying because Mikoto's in pain." said Panther Lilly. "I promised her.. I would make sure those tears went away... AND THE FIRST STEP TO THAT!! IS DEFEATING YOU!!!!"

Panther Lilly let out a vicous roar as raised his sword. A massive amount of magic energy began to explode from his body.

"This power I feel." said the slightly bewildered Gantenbainne. "Is... is this what magic feels like? Or something else... the will to help one's comrades.. I never thought I would see such a power so soon.. in such a cat.."

Gantenbainne smiled. "That is good.. REALLY good!! In that case, I needn't hold back my true form's power!!"

Gantenbainne thrust his fists together as a massive amount of spiritual energy began to charge in between his fists. "RUGIR DEL DRAGON!!!!"

Gantenbainne thrust out his fist and let a massive blast of energy shaped like a dragon's head tear it's way towards Panther Lilly.

Panther Lilly's eyes glowed with a fierce fiery will as he raised his blade and slashed it right through the energy blast.

Before Gantenbainne could even blink, Panther Lilly was right next to him, slashing his sword in a wide arc across the 107 Privaron Espada.

Gantenbainne staggered back as his chest spat blood. "I-incredible.. it was a one sided brawl after all.. thanks to your unbreakable.. will... Panther Lilly..."

Gantenbainne's ressureccion form dissapated in a brilliant light, and fell on his back, coughing up blood.

Lilly knealt next to Gantenbainne. "You don't strike me as anyone evil. I have no desire to finish or kill you."

"Just as well, you too are a warrior with a great code of honor." said Gantenbainne. "We Arrancar heal quick thanks to our regenerative properties... I am fine.."

Suddenly Gantenbainne's eyes widened with shock and terror. "No.. this spiritual pressure, it can't be...HER!!"

"What!?" said Gantenbainne. "What is it!?"

"GET OUT OF HERE NOW!!" Gantenbainne roared. "It's one of the Espada.. if she finds me here, defeated, she'll kill both of us outright!!"

Panther Lilly's expression turned dark. "So she'll kill you? Even though you're their comrade?"

"In the Espada, there is no such thing as comraderie.. everyone does what they do accordiing to what they see fit as long as it does not interfere with Aizen's..or as it is now.. Ulquiorra's interests. Leave now or your life is forfeit!! The new Espada Seis is not much unlike Grimmjow was when he was an Espada!!"

Lilly shook his head. "No.. I will not allow an atrocity such as this to go on.."

"YOU FOOL!" Gantenbainne shouted, then his eyes widened. "Too late..."

Behind Lilly appeared Gorroro Serpiente. She came so quickly and silently, that Lilly didn't even have time to react before she slammed her palm into his back, and he smashed into the opposite end of the room.

"Wow! A kitty!" said Gorroro. "I actually think those things are cute.. when their insides become their outsides that is.."

Panther Lilly made to get up.. but suddenly there was a pop and a puff of smoke, and Lilly returned to his small cat form. "NO! My battle form's magic was used up!"

"Awwwww!!" said Gorroro. "You look even cuter now!! I'm finding it harder to wanna hit you now!!"

"You look around Mikoto's age.." said Lilly. "However it's hard to tell with these Arrancar. Step aside, this man is defeated and I can no longer fight.. there is no need to-"

"SHUT UP YA FREAKING CAT!!" Gorroro snapped. "Let me tell ya something about me.. first of all, I kill what I want, when I want...secondly.."

Gorroro flashed out of view for just a minute before suddenly appearing in front of the small Lilly, kicking him into the air, and then smacking him down with an elbow. "I lied about me thinking you were cute."

"Damn.. you're fast.." said Lilly, choking a little.

"Don't ya get it?" said Gorroro. "I'm the freaking Seis Espada... I used to be a normal Numeros.. Arrancar number 48.. but then I trained myself by constantly fighting in the Forest of Menos for months.. that's how I became the toughest Adjuchas class Espada."

Gorroro reached from behind her black hair and pulled a viper-skull shaped hollow mask fragment over the top of her head like a half visor. "Not only that.. but despite what stupid ol' Zommari always says.. Ulquiorra confirmed that I'm the fastest Sonido master of the Espada... REMEMBER IT YA FREAKING PUNK!!!"

Gorroro stomped on Panther Lilly's head, smashing him into the ground... "Don't worry, I'll make it nice and quick... real quick.. I've got a reputation to keep here."

Panther Lilly suddenly began to chuckle.

"What!?" said Gorroro. "WHAT THE HELL ARE YA LAUGHING ABOUT!?"

"You probably think.. that Gajeel, Aiko, and I were the only back up that was scheduled to come after Mikoto and Natsu.... but truth is.. we were merely the first to arrive... I can sense their magic power.. the others are here..."

"Who.." said Gorroro, her eyes looking thirsty for battle. "WHO!?"

"Our 5 strongest ones.." said Lilly. "Mikoto would make the 6th.. after all she just became an S-Class mage this month... but you're in for it now.."

"HA!!" said Gorroro. "Whatever chump! I'm actually glad their's somebody here to slake my boredom!! In any case!! To hell ya go furball!!"

Gororro lashed her hand down towards Panther Lilly's head.. only to have a strong hand catch it and hold it back.

Gorroro turned slowly to see a tall muscular man with a black coat, yellow hair, a lightning scar on his eye, and yellow lightning crackling all over his body.

"And who the hell are you supposed to be?" Gorroro said.

"I'm the guy whose going to beat ya down to size." said Laxus Dreyar. "Whether or not you're a girl.."

"Wait.." said Gorroro. "You have no problems with beating on a female... really?"

"Well yeah.."

Gorroro's eyes suddenly sparkled. "You.. ARE THE COOLEST GUY EVER!!!"

 "Now now now..where are you running off to?" Szayl Aporro smiled deviously as he used Sonido to block Aiko's way once more. "The fun's just begun.. you're not supposed to try and run until the 3rd Act.. though of course by then it's usually already too late... am I right?"

"Darn you.." Muttered Aiko as she leapt back from Szayl Aporro. "All you've done is chase me around."

"Because it's ever so amusing.." said Szayl Aporro. "Kind of like it's amusing to think that one over there can actually hide from me.."

Szayl Aporro pointed at Pesche who was hiding behind a piece of rubble. "I see you there, former Fraccione of Nelliel Tu Odelschwank.."

"AHHHH!!!" Pesche jumped out. "I thought my hiding spot was perfect!!"

"Learn to conceal your reitsu.. and maybe you just might be good at being a coward." said Szayl Aporro with a lick of his lips.

Szayl Aporro laughed. "But enough of this trouble, I know you've been running because of how you've exhausted yourself during our fight previously.. and that I'm fully intact thanks to my healing technique.. not to mention you figured my Ressureccion form would grant me an exceptional boost in strength.. that is all correct... and I think it's time this little charated ended.."

Before Aiko could react, Szayl Aporro's large branches suddenly slammed into her.. and as they did.. one of the tear shaped structures seeped out a small doll into Szayl Apporo's hands... the doll looked like a chibi version of Aiko.

"Wh-what is that!?" Aiko stammered.

"Well, it's quite simple really." said Szayl Aporro as he took off the head of the doll. "It's like a voodoo doll you might say.. only it works only with these."

Szayl Aporro turned the doll slightly to reveal inside were multiple strange bean like colored objects.. all of them had the names of organs and body parts in spanish labled on them.

Szayl Aporro took out the one that had a kidney lable and crushed it in his fingers.

Aiko screamed out in pain and fell to the floor, writhing with agoney.

"Oh my.. that won't do.." said Szayl Aporro. "Shall I try something with a little more oomph? Like I wonder if I can find a female reproductive organ in here... now that would be just entertaining.. hmm I'll stick with  this one for now.."

Szayl Aporro began crushing several more voodoo organs as Aiko threw up and writhed around in agoney.

"You know, I actually tested this one out on a MISAKA 19400." said Szayl Aporro. "Her screams were actually a lot more entertaining then yours.. I don't know.. maybe it was because of the fact that since they sound so stoic all the time.. when they show even the tiniest emotion.. it's like getting an automatic high...beautiful...just beautiful."

"Y-you're sick.." Aiko muttered as she tried in vain to endure the pain.

"Well look on the bright side." said Szayl Aporro. "If you survive.. which most likely you won't... child birth with seem like nothing compared to this.. in fact.. alot of things will seem like nothing.. you'll come out an iron hearted girl... granted I don't crush that heart or any other major artery.."

"And tell me.." said a voice. "Just how do you intend to do that?"

Szayl Aporro turned to see  a beautiful white haired girl wearing  black dress, and a glare that could frighten a million demons with one glance.

"Hmmm.. beautiful.. seems nice.. but has an angry side.. a new character.. by far, I believe you're Mirajane Strauss." said Szayl Aporro. "Most unexpected.. I was under the impression that Gajeel, Aiko, and Panther Lilly were the only reinforcements.."

"You thought wrong.." said Mira, displaying none of her usual kindness or cheer. "So tell me.. just what were you planning on doing to Aiko?"

"Well.. I thought I'd crush her liver.. then slowly rip apart her stomach.."

Mira took on a livid expression as a demonic aura began to surround her, and the very ground began to shake with tremendous unimaginable magic power.

"All those things you said just now.." Mira whispered. "I'm going to do to you.."
