[Rescuing Ayuka: Arc 5]
A 'Spiritual Mode'! One of the basic techniques that a Ginkenian should master! It's another extension to their power and allows them to seperate their spirit from their body on the outside. A linking technique such as this one is necessary for Ginkenians because of it's polluted power, allowing them to switch dimensions between Zero World and Planet Earth. This ability is usually not shown by the trained Ginkenians but their pressure can be felt. Once the Spirit Seperates through the body their potential can be easily overwhelmed and a basic Ginkenian could easily be harmed by their own Spirit. The 'Spirit Mode' is quite different and the bodies of Ginkenians become Spiritual, through seeable and very difficult to learn. But the weakness of such body is risky.... Currently we still do not know much about this mysterious technique.....

Zero World - Spiritual Realm - Tuesday, 5:20 p.m.|
Ayuka was somewhat dazed, sitting on the floor of the circular room, as a mistaken foretold, one to few guard, stepped in to bring her the news. "Ayuka Kirashito, with our community, we've come to a conclusion, today you'll be put onto the cross, next day in the evening you'll be put on execution, so, please with no fighting, come with us." The guard spoke and then unlocked the door. Ayuka's condition was getting worse and worse. "Instead of just executing me on the spot, you've had to waited for so long...." When the poor girl stood up, she pulled her arms forward when the chains deflected her Spiritual Symbolism. Guarded by a trio of guards, Ayuka followed the man ahead with her hands, chained.
Tokyo City - Ichiba Street - Tuesday, 2:00 p.m.|
Tim, standing up and finally reaching the 25 minute mark of releasing aura, faced at the time. "Tishida... how much longer until the execution?" "Knowing the base, it's still an entire week until now..." Tishida explained but not long after, Akari came lacing in. "I think, we have been misunderstood.... the guards, they've put Ayuka on execution.... until tomorrow evening." The words that came from Akari, floated past Tim. "What!? What happened, why has she been shorted?" "We are not very sure... but it's a possibility..... their community decided the time and has now been set to just tomorrow... Tim, I believe you're in rush to set out...." Shaking eyes and worried mind, speech of Tim curled out. "But how? I'm not even able to perfectly use Spiritual Mode???" "Well, It is better than nothing... though, we really gotta hurry, I'll come along...." Explained Akari when fixing their fur. "But, how? Can you even use Spiritual Mode in a cat's body?" "That's not the problem here..... believe me or not." When speaking, Akari begun sending out a Spiritual Pressure which set over and finally revealed. Tim's eyes, bubbled out. "You're a girl?!?" Akari'a hair seemwd to be in a purple ponytail, she was dressed into a training suit with an average height. "What? Something wrong with me being a girl?" "No... no! But! How..... your~ your voice was male-like as a cat, how have you...." "Don't give unnecessary questions, we'll head through the Spiritual Realm, but be aware, there will be many Ginkenians and multiple enemies that will probably prevent us from reaching our goal.... then again, not sure of us alone can pull it through...." Spoke Akari with her, more of a darker skin. "Nobody said, you two will be going alone..." Tim faced to the side after seeing a trio. "Kanji? Codey? Odina? Why, you three?!" "Relax bud..., we just want to help out, there is no way, you'll manage to complete the raid with only the two of you, so... some backup for you two will be very handy." Codey was now hanging in brand new clothes. "Yes! But! Odina! Why? How can you? And Codey! How did you figure out about Kanji's Ginkenian ability?" Tim gave in, with a question. "Believe me... I'd never guess... 'specially if he weren't to tell me...., it passed a week... figured more than expected." Tim on-listened. "Oh and Odina... her healing abilities might come in handy." Since the week passed, Tim and the rest have achieved the knowledge about several different ocasions. "I still do have shorter struggles, but with Nyx, I'll manage to be in any help I could be!" "That doesn't matter! I know you can! But, none of you know how to use Spiritual Mode." Tim said, worried for problems. "That's why I'll be coming too. It requires only one person to open up the Spiritual Realm, and as we know, the Spiritual Mode is the key to opening it, we can manage with one, but would be a risky move. That's why, you Tim, needed to learn how to use Spiritual Mode, the Spiritual Realm can be opened for 20 minutes on your own! More people enters it, the quicker the timer drops, this is why we needed you to master Spiritual Mode for 30 minutes straight...., you can now hold it for 25 minutes... which is actually very helpful, we'll be able to keep the Spiritual Realm opened for a while longer...." Akari seperately explained. "Come on Tim, we're aware you're still a rookie in it, but we definetly need your additional power to get through, all of us here wish to save Ayuka...." Kanji's sentence reached on and gave Tim time to think. "All right.... I'll do my best, and you're right, we must do everything in our capabilities to find and rescue Ayuka." The group nodded and Tishida lead the way to the opening of the Spiritual Realm.
- Several minutes later -
Tokyo City - Ichiba Street - Tuesday, 2:23 p.m.|
Standing in front of a frame, the group looked. "This is the portal, or frame to entering the Spiritual Realm, once I open it and you enter, you'll be put into a straight leading path, once there you and Akari will have to use Spiritual Mode and then, the four of you will have to hurry on as fast as possible, based on the activation and two of you, the time limit will be put to 40 minutes, to be exact, 35 minutes which can potentially be a burden to all of you, Tim, it's all up to you, a minute shorter and everything can end up in failure.... still ready to go?" Tishida asked then turned to look at Tim. Serious enough, Tim then spoke out. "I am... I can't bring failure or we're all done for...." The entire group nodded and trusted Tim. "All right, then good luck." Tishida stretched his arms when releasing his Spiritual Symbolism, the heatness from it advanced when the frame absorbed Tishida's Spiritual Symbolism, a portal opened in which they noticed a red, straight path. "It's opened.... when you enter make sure to immediately use Spiritual Mode, if you fail, the dimension will put you in the abyss." With cultivation and worries, Tim answered with nod, giving a serious and intimidating look. "All right... we're all set, you ready guys?" With a look, Tim's friendly allies nodded. "We're ready and set, just do what you've learnt!" Codey was smooth talking with Odina being trusty and excited. "All right.... and thank you for all the trust and help." Tim made a secondary step to the right and faced the opened dimension. ("Once I enter, they'll all count on me and Akari.... I can't let them down, we have got to find Ayuka and save her....") Tim stepped in front of the portal, when taking a relaxing breath, he slowly began releasing a healthy aura. "All right! Everyone! Let's go and save Ayuka!" Tim and the rest entered once immediately Tim focused, his eyes glowed blue when his clothes lost their color, his body became transparent and mostly white with a blue glow, the sword was immediately hung onto his back and then, Codey, Kanji and Odina entered. "Wish us luck, old guy!" Akari made a wink and entered after the rest, she seemed to have decided to wait to use Spiritual Mode. "Whoa! That's how the Spiritual Mode looks like, that's so cool!" Odina called, smiling and estaticed, the group was running forward and the portal closed on Tishida's side. While looking around, the path seemed to have been hard to walk on and was pressurizing others, somewhat tiring them out, but Akari was used to it, so she was fine. "Akari... one question, you spoke about Ayuka being, set on execution tomorrow evening... can we manage to arrive there in such short time?" Tim asked while running behind Akari. "Without stopping, it's easy to arrive... so yes, we'll manage..."
