Summary: Lisa kicks some ass and meets an unlikely savior.
Her breath came out in uneven gasps as she leaned against a sturdy tree in the Northern part of Rukongai. She had no idea the district she was in anymore. Her lungs burned and her body screamed in agony. No longer trusting anything, her guard was at maximum and a hand was always on the hilt of her zanpakuto, fingers twitching at any noise around her. Lisa's resolve was slowly breaking and she sunk to the ground, the events of the last few days flooding her memory.
The days she had spent there were absolute hell. She had been treated worse than common trash. Bound and gagged she was tossed carelessly in a musty, dark room with only one door out and no windows. As angry as she was at herself, all she could do was remain silent and watch. Watch for any slip up they might make.
Her chance came just earlier that day when one person guarding her door said the "mastermind" behind the whole debacle was going to be there that night. This was her chance. She was going to take it. And make them pay.
Once the time was right, she set her plan into motion. It wasn't the best idea she had ever had, but at this point in time she was desperate to get out and it was all she had. Lisa was never one to wait around and be saved. A powerful surge of reiatsu burst forth as she called out her hollow. Not only would it serve to sever her bonds, both spiritual and physical, but they were certain to feel it outside and open the door.
But, she would not fight them in this state. No, they were going to receive a beating of a lifetime from an ex-vice captain shinigami.
Using the darkness to her advantage, she ambushed them and was soon able to take the two guards of the night out. Lisa managed to use a higher level binding spell to keep them in place, though not that they were going anywhere with those injuries, and hovered over them at the ready.
Now was the moment of truth. Without any hesitation she ripped off their face coverings and got a surprise she didn't expect. Lisa felt a wave of shock slam her body and she actually staggered back a few paces. She was again faced with one of those defining moments in one's life. Filled with rage and betrayal, she turned on her heel and fled the scene.
And now here she was, a good distance away, but still not back "safely" in Seireitei. Lisa slumped forward and gripped her knees. Her favored school girl uniform was beyond repair and were now mere scraps of fabric. Body thrumming with pain she managed to wrap her arms around herself to give a little warmth. "Get it together," she chastised. She had to make it back and make sure Nanao was okay. Taking a few more moments to rest, she settled back to send a few messages via butterfly to notify she was indeed on her way back and not to worry.
With a heavy sigh disguised as a groan of pain, she got to her feet once more and continued down the road in front of her.
