Some things should remain locked within yourself
Who: Frau, Hitsugaya, and Hinamori
When: Starts the night of the 18th, may also include blurbs from days after until Sins plot is over
Where: Around Sector Four, then Hitsugaya's place?
Summary: Frau's been fighting off the rather large combination of deadly sins that lead to the scythe gaining control
Warnings: Violence, almost soul consuming, maniacal laughter, simply out of your mind behavior
At first Frau had been able to control it. The thoughts pulsing from the scythe were always there and always would be. Usually it was easy enough to ignore them, shove them back down. Sometimes they were stronger and required a little more force to fix, like his arm being slammed into the wall. That had always shown the scythe who was boss once again. While the scythe continued to eat at him from the inside and pulled on his desires to consume souls, good souls and not that disgusting ones he allowed himself, Frau rarely had an issue controlling it. The only times it flared so much stronger was when a specifically good soul was around or right after he'd fed and allowed himself to slip up a little.
The last few days had been different though. The urges to ignore the corrupted souls and focus only on the pure ones had grown to the point that Frau could barely control them.
Why would you want to control them?
Because it wasn't who he was. He hadn't lost his human soul yet. He would not become him.
It's who you are.
No. He isn't.
You were made from a piece of him. You can't avoid what you are. Forget your human soul. You know you will never be able to hold on forever. There is nothing wrong with this. It's who you are.
The laughter that had echoed in Frau's head after that also slipped from his lips, filling the night sky. A dark, maniacal laughter that was far from sane. Frau's brilliant blue eyes now flickered with a gleaming red light and a lust that shone clearly within them. Nails black and lengthened, teeth viciously pointed in a wide, dangerous smile proved something was off. This wasn't Frau. The scythe was in control, Frau's consciousness pushed so far down that he had no idea what was going on anymore.
One quick bound and Frau had pounced onto an unsuspecting passerby. His gloves were off in a second, Zehel's tattoo on the back of his hand looking corrupted by thick veins that nearly obscured it and trailed under Frau's sleeve where they spiraled unseen up his arm. Without hesitation, Frau caught the man by the neck and slammed his teeth closed over his shoulder. When the dark smoke that had erupted from the man's body cleared, he was gone. Frau was once again standing at his full height, blood running in a single line down his chin.
"Ahhhh~ Disgusting. Alwaysss disgusting. They taste the way they are. Corrupted. Vile. I want a more delicious soul. A purer soul. Yessss. Kehehehe. Hahahahahha!"

That done, Hinamori turned toward the other two. She took a moment to survey the scene. There was no sense in entering a fight where she was more likely to hinder Hitsugaya than hinder him. She remembered wryly that their powers didn't play well with each other, her fire against his ice. Nonetheless, they had the advantage—two against one—and there was no reason not to use it.
Kidou was her best bet, and her strongest skill anyway. But how to do it? She didn't want to use a spell that would trip Hitsugaya up as well. She thought that perhaps if she could get behind Frau, she would have a clear shot for Hōrin or Geki. The position would leave her vulnerable to attack, so she drew her sword, even as she continued analyzing. If Frau did turn for her, though, it would put Hitsugaya at his back, which was even more dangerous for him.
Either way, spreading out would give them more room to work with. Hinamori shunpoed around to the other side of the battling pair, not too close, and began preparing Hōrin.
no subject
As he rushed in toward Hitsugaya, a little recklessly perhaps, he was cackling madly. The only thing on his mind was to take them down and eat their souls. Whatever they threw at him didn't matter. He snapped his scythe toward Hitsugaya once more, again sending a second wave his way. Only this one came in the form of his basically clawed hands.
no subject
He kept a thread of awareness on Hinamori's movements, but most of his focus remained on his own fight. Frau was strong this way. Not the brightest, but tenacity could make up for a lot.
He parried the scythe with Hyourinmaru, and noted out of the corner of his eye that this time the claws were coming for him. Considering what they'd seemed to do to the human, taking that hit was out of the question.
Pushing off the scythe, he spun mostly out of the way of the claws; they still managed to tear a few light gashes into his side, and broke through the tip of a wing again as he moved. Hitsugaya's teeth gritted at the burning sensation, but still brought Hyourinmaru around for another strike -- and it was possible that Frau's legs would be momentarily rooted to the ground when his tail struck him before the spin was over.

He growled in dark irritation and swung the scythe down toward the ice, not really caring if he accidentally hurt himself in the process. Only a small portion had chipped away when Hinamori's kidou impacted. Frau screamed in annoyance. A deep roar or pure hatred. He struggled to pull his arms free, but it wasn't easy. The binding may have been shifting a little, but it would take a lot more continued effort to break it completely.
no subject
There was time enough for an incantation; he could do this spell without one, but he was thinking of sheer restraining power here.
"Carraige of thunder, bridge of a spinning wheel. With light, divide this into six." Free hand out, point-blank range. There was no room for it to miss. "Bakudou no rokujuuichi: Rikujokoro."
Six bars of light materialized, and slammed into Frau's midsection, pinning his arms further. And this time, when he struggled, he would find out that even those parts not physically touched by the spell refused to move.
no subject
It was unbearable. She wanted to stop it, to save them, to end it all. It was her duty and honor as a shinigami to release them from their torment. She hoped she brought at least some of them to peace.
She shunpoed a touch nearer to the fight now, still far enough away to give her time to pull away if needed but close enough to allow her to strengthen her Hōrin. By the looks of it, their target wasn't going anywhere fast now. Good.
no subject
For just an instant there was a flicker in Frau's eyes. It wasn't the dark eagerness to consume a soul. Instead, it was the light usually there in Frau. Humor and teasing amusement hiding away the deep pain and sadness he never allowed to be seen. This time the humor wasn't there though. Instead his eyes were touched by shock and fear. He'd slipped up. Badly.
No.
no subject
This couldn't go on; it had to be stopped.
He lifted his blade again, not really relishing the thought. But what had to be done had to be done.
no subject
And he was afraid. Whatever this was, he hadn't chosen to do it. This wasn't some savage side of him he'd hidden; this was something beyond his control. She had to save him.
She saw Hitsugaya raise his blade and knew what he was about to do. She couldn't. She couldn't let him. It wasn't right. "Hitsugaya-kun!" It was a scream. A plea, her face frozen in horror. What should she do? Should she jump in front of him, place herself between Frau and Hitsugaya's blade? Hitsugaya wouldn't strike her. She knew this. But it was dangerous there, too, that close to Frau, even bound by ice and kidou. Would Hitsugaya-kun listen to her? Would he kill Frau? She couldn't move. Someone, please, someone help me... What should she do?
no subject
Knock it off! I haven't forgotten my human soul yet. I will not let you touch them!
The scythe simply growled in response, the growl audible even to those standing near Frau. It twined tighter around Frau's arm, sending fire shooting through it.
NO!
He pressed his arm harder against the binding, trying to force the scythe to comply. It wasn't over yet. He wasn't going to give up!
no subject
To strike hadn't been a decision he'd made lightly. Hitsugaya would rather not kill him, in all truth. But from his standpoint, there seemed to be little else to do. How else were they supposed to stop this? How were they supposed to get him back to normal and keep him from devouring souls? Killing him was the most practical option.
But the way Hinamori screamed . . .
He faltered a little, hesitated. This was . . . different than when she'd begged him to save Aizen, right? The man she'd been pleading for then hadn't existed. It was different here; he'd seen the fear on Frau's face over what he'd been doing. He was real.
Hitsugaya didn't lower his sword, but nor did he swing it, suddenly unsure of what was the best move.
no subject
"He's fighting it; I just know it." She looked at Frau, listening to the growl of the scythe. "You hear it too, right? Please, we—we can't." She struggled for the words, to convince herself and Hitsugaya-kun that this was the right thing to do. "Gi-give him a chance to fight it. He deserves that much, doesn't he? Whatever this is, doesn't he at least deserve the chance to try? He's not a threat anymore—we can keep him safe, locked up. If—if we kill him, then... then... whatever it is that's eating at him wins."
no subject
Frau gathered all of his strength and shoved the scythe down. He wouldn't be able to hold it for long, but it should be good enough for a short time.
"Can you seal it? Really strong?"
He winced and was visibly fighting to stay in control, but there was no doubt this was Frau. The real Frau and not the scythe possessed one.
no subject
"Possibly. Though I can't be certain how long it would hold."
If they'd been from the same world, he could have given a more definitive answer. As a captain, he was able to produce strong seals, but the abilities of one world had the potential to react strangely to the abilities of another. There were no certainties here.
no subject
"Between the two of us, there has to be something we can do. Don't worry, Frau, we'll fix this." I'll fix this, she resolved quietly. Hinamori was still operating under the assumption that this was something bizarre and out of the ordinary, something caused by the Core or the Darkness perhaps. (Enough weird things had happened in the short time she was here that it almost didn't faze her anymore.) She didn't know that the scythe was something Frau had brought from home.
no subject
He grimaced and nearly lost control again, but once more fought the scythe back down. The last time this had happened it hadn't been his fault. Something here had destroyed his control and given the scythe full access. Thanks to Fai it hadn't destroyed Frau, and within a few days he was relatively back to normal. Hopefully the same thing would happen now. But if not...
Frau locked his eyes on Hitsugaya, tuning Hinamori out of the conversation. From the little he'd seen of her, she wouldn't approve of what he was about to ask, but it had to be done.
"If it feels like they'd break or I don't come back after a week... end it."
no subject
He didn't even flinch at the request. It wasn't even the first of those he'd gotten while he'd been here. That one had been over a year ago, when Maya had wound up with an Espada's powers and hadn't known how to control her hunger for souls. He'd have done it -- reluctantly -- because that was what shinigami did. But it hadn't been necessary in the end, much to his relief.
His response to the request was a single, firm nod. He'd do what he had to, should it come to that.
"Hinamori." He wanted her attention on this, and not the possibility of a grim outcome. She would be able to help here. "We should combine seals to lower the failure risk."
He wasn't completey certain how to combine seals, but Hinamori should be able to figure something like that out. She was creative with her kidou.
hope this is okay; if it's not, i'll change it
When they reopened, there was firmness in her voice. "Not here. We won't be able to move him once the seals are complete, and we can't leave him out in the open like this."
She looked at Frau. "Forgive me," she whispered softly, raising her arm above her head and stepping up onto the air to place her hand in front of his face. She recited the incantation for Inemuri.

"We can't take him back to the house. Not with the way Kuchiki has been acting lately; that's a disaster waiting to happen."
He wasn't sure what precisely was wrong with Kuchiki, and it was more than just the excessive amount of time spent in front of the mirror. There seemed to be this barely contained rage in him, and he'd had to get him to back off of Ella of all people. That had been trying enough. Attempting convince him not to kill someone exhibiting Hollow tendencies? That wouldn't go well.
"We need to find someplace else. Abandoned."
no subject
She glanced back at the boy laying on the ground. "He'll be fine until we get back; it's a good barrier. And he shouldn't wake up for several more hours."
no subject
Because keeping him sealed would do little good if the monsters could just keep breaking in at night. This could evidently take up to a few days; they needed the precautions.
And yes, the kid would be fine for a bit on his own. Run-of-the-mill Darkness creatures wouldn't be able to break through that spell.
"Let's get this done, then."
no subject
They reached a small neighborhood that looked rather like some disease had worked its way through—small cottages and homes stood empty, "For Sale" signs mildewing in the brown, dry lawns. Who knew why this particular area had been vacated; perhaps its vicinity to the nearby SERO chemical factory, perhaps some new neighbor with a dangerous ability.
The important thing, though, was it didn't look like anyone would be coming by anytime soon to stumble upon their project.
no subject
His eyes swept over the area, critically examining the buildings nearby. They needed one that didn't look outright condemned like half the structure in this area did. He nodded at a house a short distance ahead of their current location.
"That one looks serviceable."
Not ideal, but serviceable. Nothing about this situation was ideal.
