With the Captains suffering casualties and heavy injuries on their side, all hope seemed to be lost... until Shinji Hirako appeared, along with the rest of the former Shinigami. Though the aid of the Vizards certainly helped to draw the battle in their favor, it seemed Aizen's power alone proved too much for them.
Slapped, several times, Adan glared at her, standing up. "THE HELL!?"
A bundle of cloth was thrusted into his arms and he glared. He looked at it, and then he pulled out the dress, staring at it. He stared to it, then to Graciela. He opened his mouth, as if to speak, and then looked back and forth again. And again. And again. Finally, his eyes narrowed, his brow twitching.
"LIKE HELL!" He roared, hurling the dress and glaring at Graciela. "I'm stronger than you, why am I taking orders from the likes of you?!"
"Samuii looks like a christmas tree, you look like someone spilled paint on you, and I'm a MALE! I'm not putting a dress on! Baka!" While Adan was not usually quick to anger, this was where he drew the line. He glared at her, and then his eyes twitched yet again. He held out his left arm, like a gun, threatening to blast a bala at her.

Okay. Samuii knew she looked like a Christmass Tree. She didn't need Adan to tell her that. But she was itching to make with the hurt, so she leaped at the opportunity.
After Graciela gave him a few warm-up slappings, thrusted a dress in his hands and ordered him to wear it, the red-haired arrancar ripped the sweater off and then threw it at Stubby's face. And then, she comedically jump-kicked him.
"HOW'S THAT FOR A CHRISTMAS TREE?! I'M GOING TO FRIGGING SACRIFICE YOU!!" she yelled loudly, extending her legs so that the bottom of her boots were aimed straight at the man's face. Oho...if he wanted to have a test to see who was stronger...she just might take him up on that.
Kicking people in the face felt good. And the promise of alcohol made it even better.
Again, she blinked several times and then replayed his voice in her head. She grimaced and then got ready to hit him again.
She was shocked when Samuii got up and was ready to kick him in the face. She doubled over on the floor laughing at the comedic fashion she did it in.
She rushed into the changing room before any thing happened to her pretty dress. She opened a garganta and threw a whole bunch of clothes in. Nobody said she had to buy it, right?
She changed into her normal green tee and ripped knee jeans. She came out and used the most authoritative voice she could manage.
"Samuii. Adan. We are leaving. NOW!" She screamed and began walking out.
"ITAIIIIIIIIIII!" Adan wailed, the foot slamming into his face. He flew backwards in an arc, landing on his stomach with his feet over his head. His arms were sprawled out before him, looking almost as if they had no bones. He lifted his head and hopped to his feet, crossing his arms.
"Na! I'm not takin' orders from you two! I'm the man here!" He growled, pointing to himself angrily. He'd be clenching a fist in his left hand if he actually had a left hand. A vein throbbed on his forhead, but he soon straightened out with a smug smile accenting his expression. "Sides. Adan "Stumpy" Achaparrado doesn't take orders from short, dumb-blondes."
Little did Adan know there were major consequences that could emerge from his words. He didn't know that some girls, most likely these two, despised overly cocky guys. It wasn't even that Adan was cocky though, just pissed off.
"Don't make me blast my cero," Adan warned, holding up his stump as though it were a weapon of mass destruction (it sort of was). Even in a gigai, he could manage a weak cero. At least, that's what he assumed. He couldn't be entirely sure if that was the case or not, but it was close enough for him.

Samuii stood smugly as she watched Adan flying away; the result of her kick. "Aw, I hope you still have a nose! I heard humans don't like people without noses! Then again, neither do Arrancar! Or Shinigami! Or Vizards!" she said in false sincerity, before breaking down in laughter. "You're not taking orders? Then what are you doing in this store?!" she asked, still laughing as she followed Graciela out the store.
"Now, where's the best tequila here..." she mumbled before Adan said something about blondes.
Blondes.
"I AM NOT BLONDE!" she screamed, grabbing the nearest thing and hurling it at him. Fortunately, it was a chair. Unfortunately...it was a metal chair. "Does THIS look like blonde to you!?" she asked loudly, pointing at her obviously not blonde red hair. How dare he call her blonde?!
She was prepared to ignore the short comment, but when she heard him call her a dumb blonde her eyes narrowed into slits.
"KUSO!" She screamed and began cursing wildly at him.
She prepared to go hit him, but Samuii beat her to the punch and threw a chair at him. She sighed and grabbed Samuii's hand she was going to shop a little more before they went drinking, but Adan had made her skip a few hours. She walked up to the nearest place that sold alcohol.
"I'd like a double Margarita with lots of tequila in it...wait make it a triple," she decided then looked to Samuii waiting for her to order.
She had the whole thing planned out in her head. They would drink a little now walk around in the mall for a little then hit the clubs.
As promised, the very irate Adan began to focus the bala around his stump, firing off the blue blast into the chair, letting it shatter to pieces. Unfortunately, those pieces went flying in all directions, one striking Adan in the face and bouncing off, but not before causing his nose to bleed from the impact. "I...tai..."
The two had already begun to walk out of the store by the time Adan had recovered, and he shook his head and began to follow them. Well, at least they were getting food. Maybe he could mooch off of them.
Of course, the place they were at was just a bar. Graciela had ordered a triple margirita, but Adan didn't want to drink. "Uh, Senior, do ya sell... y'know, food here?"
"We sell alcohol and peanuts. Which do you want?"
"Ah, ya sure there's nothing that resembles food?" Adan asked, shaking his stump at the man. Of course the man wouldn't get the joke; he was a human.
"We have peanuts. Do you want them, or not?"
"I'll take the stupid peanuts."

Samuii let herself be dragged off again. At least this time, it was not a store, but a bar. That was acceptable.
Following Graciela to the counter, she called for the bartender. "Give me a Mojito, Mexican style." she said. And by "Mexican-style", Samuii meant replacing the rum in the Mojito with Tequila. She wasn't a rum person.
Turning around and placing her elbows on the counter, she looked at the other humans in the room. "I wonder which one of these humans is the easiest to kill," she asked nonchalantly, as if killing things was nothing (as an arrancar, killing things was nothing). "I spy with my little eye..."
At that moment, a man had the balls to approach her.
"Hey baby -"
"Get lost," Samuii cut off, looking at her fingernails.
"But-"
"I said beat it." the arrancar said, grabbing the guy's shirt and flinging him back to the table he came from. She ignored the stares from his other pals as she turned back towards the counter. "Can you believe these people?" she said as the bartender brought their drinks over. Taking the tall glass, Samuii began to sip the mojito, completely oblivious to the happenings going on behind her back.
Graciela took in a deep breath, then exhaled. She quickly slurped down, then asked for three more. She looked to Samuii and began thinking which human would be the easiest.
Before she could think of an answer a human walked up to her. She quietly giggled, knowing fully well how the scenario would end. She figured Samuii would throw him, or play for a few seconds THEN throw him.
The former happened and she threw him across the room back to his table. Samuii asked if she could believe the people and she nodded.
"These human are so mediocre, their whole state of mind is pathetic," she mused then drank the second of her margaritas.
She heard Adan's voice then chucked her drink at him attempting to soak him with alcohol, then burn him.
"Bug, the hell are you still doing here. I'll give you three seconds flat to leave or else I will squash you like the irritating stub you are," she spoke cruelly then waved a dismissing hand toward him.
Adan smiled as he popped a peanut into his mouth, complacence smoothing over his features. He still smiled, even as the glass hit him on the forehead and shattered, causing a small piece to get lodged in his head. He reached up, pulled it out, and threw it over his shoulder. He didn't have to be afraid of this one. She wasn't much to be afraid of to begin with. He smiled as he extended his stump to her, that grin growing wider.
"Well, I could just blast off, if ya know what I mean," Adan said with a laugh. He popped another peanut into his mouth with his free hand, smiling widely.
Another grin came onto his features as he watched the commotion from the humans scrambling about, presumably wondering how Samuii had had the power to throw the man in such a manner.
"Geez Samuii, you should chill out more," Adan said with a smile to the redhead. "I mean, if ya spend all yer free time killin people then you'll get bored pretty quickly."
His grin widened even more as he held up his stump as if it was a trophy of some great achievement and laughed, "That's what this is for!"
