Ichigo

(What was that?)

(I remember seeing it before. It looked similar to Uryu's necklace.)

(Is it the same thing? If so, is he...?)

(But he's wearing a mask. A mask only an Arrancar should be wearing.)

............

Ebern

What's the matter, Ichigo Kurosaki? All you're doing is dodging. Is that the extent of your power?

Ichigo

(Something's not right. All he's been doing is taunting me.)

Ebern

You'll need to perform a Bankai to defeat me.

Ichigo

(Another taunt.)

(Don't know who he is.)

(Don't know why he's attacking.)

(I'll play your game.)

Ebern

Here it comes!

This is it, Ichigo Kurosaki.

Your Bankai ends here!

Ichigo

Bankai!

............

Ichigo

What...is that?

Ebern

"Aufreide" (melt)

Meer eh wolken, wolken eh regen, regen eh nebel. (Sea to cloud, cloud to rain, rain to fog.)

Sieht balle eh um sieht ballen. (That with shape to that which is unseen.)

Wir gut freude. Danach vrund dill becher. (After our jubilation, the chalice will be turned face down.)

Ichigo

Aaaaarrrggghhh!!!

Ebern

Now!!!

Ichigo

Aaaargh!!!

Getsugatensho!!!

Ebern

No way!!! Why?!?

2. After the battle

Ebern

Huff... Damn it... Why?

Why won't his Bankai disappear?!

Ichigo

My Bankai disappearing? What does that mean?

I don't consider you a threat, but based on the last five minutes, I've got a ton of questions I wanna ask you. You're coming with me.

Ebern

Damn it!

Ichigo

Huh?!

Ebern

Don't worry. This shadow only hides the chosen.

Ichigo

Crap!

He disappeared! What kind of movement technique was that? That wasn't the Garganta that the Arrancars use.
