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.
Samyeru shouldn't have gotten distracted, it was almost too late for him to dodge Diagoro's attack. If his ears hadn't picked up on Diagoro's movements, but even with his advance hearing, he couldn't dodge all of the blade's hit. He felt the black blade literally cut through his reiastu as it slashed his back, but he managed to move out of the brunt of the hit.
A small trail of blood streamed down Samyeru's back, dripping on the ground as he stood a few feet away from Daigoro. He needed to get serious, so he decided to up the ante. He sonidoed right in front of Diagoro, noticing his now armored body, and started to perform a barrage of punches and kicks.
His fist pistoned at Diagoro, aiming for his face and mid section. After a few seconds of punches, he started to kick at Diagoro. Two, three, four... He counted each kick in his head as he waited for the fifth kick.
As the fifth kick started, his foot glowed a blueish silver aura once more, moving his foot up in a upward motion. "Luna creciente barra!" The crescent like projectile was released once the kick was finished and he sonidoed away a few feet from Daigoro.
Samuii saw the sword coming and sidestepped slightly, but the blade managed to make a shallow gash on her arm. Fortunately, her hierro was there to take the brunt of the damage, but it still left a long, red, bleeding line. She swung her sword, aimed at his head, when the Vizard child suddenlt jumped out and attempted to choke the shinigami by wrapping her legs around his neck.
Actually, if she hadn't been fighting, Samuii would've died laughing at the scene. But right now, there were more important things to take care of.
She prepared to launch another strike when, once again, she was interrupted with the swishing sound of a shunpo. She took a step back as Guuro's familiar form appeared, threw an elbow at the Vizard's face, and disappeared, but not before giving her a passing glance.
Samuii stomped her foot in mid-air, "God dammit, Goroji!" she muttered loudly. The nerve of the guy to come barging in and throwing off her concentration like that! Shaking her head, she brought her sword back, and then swung it forward, shooting out a slower-version of a bala towards the other shinigami, the one with the glasses.
Kaki felt the elbow to her head strike her down, causing her to fall and hit her head against the rocky ground. If she could feel it, she might have just given up right then and there. But she knew she was running out of steam. Kaki wasn't going to be able to fight the whole battle, so she'd have to act like a hollow and run too. Scooping herself up, she darted back down the mountain side, scarf trailing behind her.

"Arigatou," was the simple response of Takeme Sanmaru. Without pause, as his acid returned and he was brought back to full strength, he turned to the arrancar, ready to attack. But that didn't happen, because the moment he turned, he was struck by the bala and knocked back. "Oof!"
However, he was stronger now. He could hold through it. Despite the burns, despite the stinging, he charged for her and slashed down.
"Ito-san," he called, "I believe the rogue is dead."

Daigoro smirked, but his eyes widened as the punches and kicks landed on his body. He yelled out in pain, and was knocked back. He managed to pull himself onto his feet, just in time to see the attack heading towards him. He shouted, and held his zanpakuto up, able to block the attack this time. The crescent hit the blade of his sword, and Runa Ookami began to absorb. The armour grew, and grew to his torso, covering his chest. Daigoro blinked. Either his armour was growing more with less, or that was a damn powerful attack.
/"Ito-San, I believe the rogue is dead."/
Daigoro nodded.
Crap. Soifon-Taichou is going to chew me out now. Oh well. At lesat she's not my problem anymore. He blinked again. Now was not the time to be thinking about things like this. He grimaced, and kept his eyes on Sanmaru, not deciding to get distracted by this guy. The red-haired Shinigami charged, deciding to take a less subtle approach with his attacks. The moment he came into range of the Arrancar's attacks, he jumped, and flash-stepped off the man's face, pushing backwards, before landing and flash-stepping right in front of him, and slashing.

Autohit, for the... what number time was that? Five? No, six. No, you are not staying in this plot; but since I promised Sam that he would get to boot you, I'll wait.}

Samyeru watched as Daigoro's armor grow as his attack was absorbed with that black blade. He was going to have to get in close to get this guy to quit and go hoe. It appeared that the other Shinigami believed that Hotaru was gone, but Samyeru didn't want to believe it. Deep down he wanted her to be fine, but right now he needed to convince this man to leave.
Daigoro came in close, perfect for Samyeru to finish this. Catching the blade in his armored hand, it managed to cut his palm, and the blood traveled down to the hilt of the black blade. However it barely registered with Samyeru, he was being serious, and he was going to stop it here and now.
His knee came in fast, connecting into Daigoro's gut, but he didn't stop there. After his knee connected, he brought his fist up upper cutting the shinigami high in the air. Samyeru came in with a fast sonido, kicking Diagoro higher and higher in the air.
After the fifth kick, Samyeru vanished from behind Daigoro, only to reappear above the Shinigami, his right foot glowed once more, however this time it was far brighter. "Luna creciente barra!" His tone was firmer and the energy crescent launched at incredible speed toward Daigoro and hitting the poor Shinigami in his groin.
The force of the attack launched Daigoro into the ground, causing a dust cloud to engulf the impact. Once the cloud susided, Samyeru noticed that his attack caused a small crater and the man was rendered unconscious. He came down over Daigoro and then looked over at the other Shinigami.
"I suggest you leave with your comrade before you get over powered." He said with a ominous calm in his voice. It wasn't threatening, but it was very serious.
Samuii was on the defensive, something that she really wasn't used to (she was more of a hack-and-slash type of girl). She raised her sword to block the shinigami's attacks, but the two swords hitting each other caused some of that weird acid-thing to spray all over the place.
Fortunately, her hierro was there to protect her hand from the burning acid. It was there, and she felt it, but it tolerable.
When the other arrancar spoke up, Samuii turned her head slightly and saw that he was right. Dai-ko was unconsious, lying inside a rather large crater. "I'd go, if I were you," she said, holding her sword out, "I don't think you can handle this by yourself." She wasn't sure if this shinigami was the type to disobey orders, so she stood prepared for another attack, just in case.
Sanmaru was no fool; he knew that he would be outmatched if he stuck around for the two to fight. Daigoro, in his opinion, was an idiot for staying when they already knew their mission was a lost cause. He wanted to chase after the vizard girl and kill her, but that would go against the orders of Soul Society. He had his mission, and it had been completed, in a sense. The girl was no longer a threat to Soul Society.
He seemed unfazed by the block of Samuii. He seemed apathetic to Daigoro's loss. He knew it was time to go, the arrancar's words or not. He simply shunpoed away from the fight and over to Daigoro, lifting the hothead with quite a struggle.
"My mission is complete; if the rogue is dead, it's just the same as if she were captured."
With that, he shunpoed away, bringing the bankai-using shinigami with him. Perhaps he should report the incident to his captain? He may very well do that, seeing as this man ruined their mission's focus.

Samyeru watched as the Shinigami picked up Diagoro, though it seemed that he was a bit heavy for the glasses clad Shinigami. After which they left, leaving Samyeru with the Arrancar women.
He walked over, still in his released form. "Thanks for the help." He said moving the scarf away from his helmet clad face, showing his face. The scar across the nose was the most noticeable thing about it, that and his silver eyes. He was surprised that another Arrancar would even help the sister, but he was glad for the help.
"If you hadn't helped, Kaki and Hotaru would have been hurt." His concern for the sisters was evident in this one statement. He wasn't all trusting as his face implied, he still had his defense up.
Samuii said nothing an resheathed her sword. Well, that was a waste of her time. She turned toward the wolfish arrancar, obviously still in ressureccion. Smirking when he thanked her, the redhead simply crossed her arms, saying, "Don't thank me. I didn't do anything."
She almost laughed when the other arrancar said something about Kaki and Hotaru being hurt if she hadn't intervened. Obviously, this man had no idea that her main purpose for helping out and going against the shinigami was to watch the entertainment of two sisters mauling each other to death.
Yes, you could say that Samuii was kind of a morbid bitch. But that's okay, she knows it.
"I'm only here for the entertainment," she added, looking down the mountain where the Vizard girl ran off to, "Do you really think that the sister is dead? Because that would be a terrible shame."
