After the attack three months ago, they lost a lot of manpower, but also gained quite the bit of it as well. Some squads however suffered from the loss of certain people, and certain people suffered from these traitors. While one could say Sui is one of them, Ashido really didn't leave that big of an impression to her. Well she was much lazier back then, so it was probably due to not paying much attention to him. In fact she was so out of it one time she didn't even know they had a 3rd seat until the attack happened, also during that day she felt someone watching her although at the time she couldn't really check it out due to holding the swarm off. Yet she soon forgot all about that within he three months, and if there is one thing that makes a place feel deserted, its knowing that a traitor was involved, so Squad nine felt pretty much dead at this point, so Sui took the chance to slip out and go for a walk, well her equivalent of a walk, which was floating her way away from the Seireitei and towards a nice spacious clearing in the wild, this one was actually quite beautiful and had no signs of damage anywhere, well not yet anyway. As Sui was laying down in the grass with her shikai floating above her. She caught a speck above her flying straight down towards her, and as it got closer it appeared to be Takara, which made Sui's expression turn to shock as she shunpoed out of the way before Takara slammed down palm first right where Sui was laying down. Sui scratched the back of her head as Takara stood up and shook her hand. "Should have done Byakurai, much faster." Takara said as she she tossed her zanpakuto up in the air, and watched it split into it's shikai form. "You know why I'm here right?" Takara asked getting into her combat stance, while Sui pulled off her glove covering her tattoo on her left hand. "Yes, but the true question Takara. Do you take the risk? You have no clue what mine does, the only one we know about is my sister Nene, and its to allow her to see despite being blind. And yours is shadows, which is why you are great for squad two. The perfect stealth unit. Mine however is a big mystery, no one knows what mine can do. But I should remain cautious, yours did grow bigger since we last meet, so I'm guessing you took theirs huh?" Sui asked which made Takara smirk. "Thats correct, although it was stupid, all they had was flexibility and better speed. Like seriously I'm getting all the ninja shit, I seriously hope yours isn't like that." Takara said before lunging at Sui. In response Sui motioned for two swords to block the attack, and the other two swung down from above, which Takara avoided by pushing one of Sui's swords into the other, causing it to block the other one as well. Takara then swung her right leg at Sui, which made Sui smirk as she reached for Takara's leg with her left hand. This made Takara stop and back off, while Sui stood there and smiled. "Whats the matter, you were all set to kill me, why did you stop the attack?" Sui asked with a smirk while Takara grinned herself as she held up both hands while one hand was missing its shikai. Sui looked down below her to see it under her legs, which made Sui gasp before a geyser came out from under Sui sending her into the air burning the skin on her arms, while Takara Shunpoed above Sui, and kicked her down to the ground. Sui managed to recover, although her arms were twitching a bit from the blistering heat. Now Sui looked around the field and saw several little stabs in the ground. "I see, I can't stand in those areas....." Sui mumbled looking at Takara, before her blades started rapidly moving and then circled Takara, and started firing off kido beams which she had to rapidly block, not being able to move, Sui took this time to plan something and shunpoed out of sight and near a cliff. After several minutes Takara came after Sui only to see her sitting on the ground waiting for Takara. "Took you long enough, I would have used the shadow trick to get out of the way, or were you too focused on blocking to do it?" Sui asked which made Takara grit her teeth before water covered her blades, and sent multiple arcs at Sui which made her dodge them all before seeing Takara in front of her swing horizontally across her cutting her stomach, however Sui took that time to grab Takara by the hair and kneeing her right in the face, and then tossing her over the cliff. One would think that you could simply shunpo back, but Takara found herself stuck in a fushibi, right in the middle of it too. Sui sent her swords into the sky which vanished, then multiple Green and blue spiritual energy blade fell from the sky right on top of Takara, who used her shadow feature and let the blade go right past her, when all the blades were gone she let the shadow feature go, then felt and incredible amount of power above her, she then saw All of Sui's four blades above her firing a bright and giant kido beam down upon her. Takara tried to move but then realized that she was still stuck in the fushibi. So all Takara could do, was watch as the beam connected with the fushibi and caused a massive explosion sending smoke hurdling up the cliff followed by one of Takara's arm, which made Sui frown as she kicked it down the cliff. Sui also caught her shikai blades, and sealed them as she peered down the cliff to see nothing remaining of Takara, which made Sui sigh. "All of that hassle for some stupid power? Geesh, its not like you get a power boost, just some stupid Tattoo with a power." Sui muttered as she walked away from the cliff.
