Angelo was walking by karakura town with his bag of groceries, Angelo knew that the only cook they actually had needed stuff to make dinner and unfortunately Angelo drew the short straw and was told to go and buy some stuff. While both his hands were occupied he simply walked down the street thinking back to his old life as a soon to be captain, he was going to be a great assassin leader once upon a time before his hollowfication took that chance away, although now Angelo could really be faster then any soul reaper in the seretai it also made him go through the process itself and made Angelo weaker when it came to a strength test. So Angelo just had to believe that this was just one of those situations where it was the speed to make 1000 cuts or one big one and Angelo honestly believed he was the first one when it came to fighting.

As Angelo walked down the street he could hear someone calling for help and he turned to see a young girl about to be eaten by a hollow. While Angelo was no longer a soul reaper he couldn't ignore someone's cry for help but it was just a hollow so it wasn't like Angelo needed to worry, he put his groceries down on a bench nearby and he used his shunpo and got in front of the creatures face in front of the girl and he said "boom" before he snapped his fingers and in front of him the sonic boom was generated making the hollow quickly let go of the girl to grab where its ears would be then Angelo caught the girl before she hit the ground and used his flash step to put her on the bench with the groceries "watch these for me okay?" Angelo asked her and without waiting for a response he made another flash step in front of the creature that now looked angry
"the pain! it hurts to much!" The hollow yelled out as it tried to lash out at Angelo but Angelo was to quick and ended up behind the hollow and Angelo said "rest in peace" before he slashed the hollows head cutting it down and making it vanish.

Once the hollow was dealt with Angelo walked over to the bench where he put the groceries and the left the girl alone before he said "be safe" before he made one last flash step to get away and avoid being followed. Soon after another half hour of walking he got back to the old warehouse building they all lived in and he called out " I got the stuff you need for dinner!" he called out as he put the stuff near their crappy little stove and Angelo went to his perch near the top of the warehouse and started to relax on his mattress...

Karakura Town

Martha sucked on her teeth, relaxing her colossal bowstring and dissipating the spear of Reishi which she hadn't been able to fire. So much for taking down that Hollow. The moment the final bell of school went, she'd gone to look for something to shoot. Even now, three years since she took residence in Karakura town, she hated going to school. Sitting in one place learning about things she could get from a book in her own time wasn't exactly conductive to her, so she thought at least. But that wasn't the point of going to school. It was normal - made a good part of a normal persona.

Her search did not take long, much to Martha's relief. One of the monsters had emerged from whatever hellhole they come from, immediately going about doing what Hollows did; look for food. Martha wasn't the kind of person or Quincy to rush in, Spirit Weapon blazing, so she watched and observed just out of sight. She took in small things like how it moved, the shape of its mask, the distance between its feet and the amount of force applied on the ground with each step - those were the things which were surprisingly helpful if a hunt turned bad.

Once content with her observations she set herself up, forming her giant Spirit Bow and waiting for the creature to pass from her ad hoc 'sniping roost'. The good thing about being in a town like this was the amount of elevated places she could work from - no one ever looked up, after all. With her mind set and her weapon ready, she waited for the creature to find something to eat.

As it turns out it was in the mood for school girl. Watching one of her fellow Karakura High students get hit by a car did not exactly make her comfortable, but if her time in Waldes Heer had taught her anything it was that people die, herself included. That's why they had lived hard and fast, hunting some of the most dangerous creatures on Earth for the thrill and honor.

Then that guy showed up and had to spill her cheerios everywhere. He wasn't a Shinigami, that's for sure. Shinigami don't a) go shopping b) dress like people, and c) leave spirits behind without a Konso. So not only had her quarry been stolen, it had been stolen by a guy who was not even a complete Shinigami. Now she was just left with the spirit of a girl who she had essentially enabled the death of. Frustrating.

It wasn't guilt which compelled her to use Hirenkyaku and approach the spirit of Uzami, but rather a sense of responsibility. A blur of speed later, she found herself next to the bench where the girl had been left. It was probably entirely overwhelming for the poor girl, being killed, nearly eaten, then saved and then having someone in the same school uniform as you appear from seemingly nowhere. It wouldn't be unlikely that the girl was at least aware of who Martha was - it wasn't every day transfer students from Europe showed up, let alone ones with gnarly scars on one side of their face.

"Hello." He greeting was simple and formal in tone, formal being the only type of tone she was taught to speak Japanese in. "You appear to be dead." Her sharp eyes drifted to the chain dangling from the girls chest. "Moving is ill advised, wait here for someone to come and find you. You will know who."

"Stranger Danger"
Karakura Town

---

A breeze blows over the two young girls, standing alone on the streets of Karakura. They were being watched from a distance, but strangely, the individual watching them wouldn't be sensed until a particular moment. That moment was when they disappeared completely, arriving at the scene a few meters away from where Martha stood. Now revealed to the light, the stranger's large cloak and hood are clearly visible, while their face is carefully concealed. The only visible parts of their body, their lower face and left hand, were wrapped entirely in pure white bandages.

Now that they were so close, the Quincy would almost certainly sense the stranger's reiatsu. It was suffocating but subdued, making the stranger out to be only at about the strength of an entry-level shinigami. Still, something about her presence would stick out as unusual, especially since the Quincy wouldn't have sensed her until she got close. Taking advantage of the situation, the hooded stranger steps forwards and whistles-

"That guy really ought to be in less of a hurry, leaving the two of you behind like that. Ah, a Ghost and a Quincy, fancy meeting the two of you in a place like this."

The person's voice is clearly muffled by the bandages covering their body, so their gender and tone remain a mystery. Regardless of their veiled intentions, they seem to be gazing intently at Martha from beneath their hood, as if watching to see what their next move was. As if intentionally, a tiny bit of the mysterious stranger's presence seems to leak from their disguise, revealing a vaguely hollow-like feeling. An ominous smile appears on their face, followed by a tilt of the head in Uzami's direction.

"You mind if I finish the job?"

Seireitei

Seireitei was boring. This was the unavoidable conclusion of the Head-Captain, who had set her lieutenant to doing all the necessary paperwork and then gone for a walk, specifically looking for trouble and something to fight. Hollows, rowdy captains, the 11th Division--everything and anything that might possibly pick a fight with Kotohime was conspicuously absent as she searched for something to deal with her boredom.

She hated her position as it stood right now. She was a fighter, and had her position because she was good at it. As a result? Paperwork, and sitting around in an office all day, sending other people out to do something that she'd much rather do herself. So typically, when she did get away from it all for a while... Seireitei was a ghost town. Well, it was always a ghost town, but in this case it was almost dead silent.

Bored of wandering aimlessly, Kotohime instead decided to check in on the Academy. From the rooftop, it seemed that combat training was taking place... perfect.

The students were the first to notice her arrival, haori acting somewhat like a parachute when the captain made her way from rooftop to floor. The instructor, of course, couldn't fail to notice the sudden paralysing pressure when she decided to 'announce' herself.

"I have a challenge for you all," the one-eyed captain said, arms folded, "All of you, attack me. You can use whatever you want or know, I'll use my bare hands. Get a single hit in, you graduate, and if you don't have the minimum skills needed, I'll train you up."

It was an attractive offer--she might have been the head-captain, but she was vastly outnumbered and had stated she wasn't going to even use a practice blade or the like. On top of that, she was shorter than essentially every other shinigami out to practice. It should be easy, right?

The toothy grin as the pressure weakened so the students could even move to fight foretold how badly this would go.

Karakura Town

While hollows seemed to appear out of nowhere, only to be slain by the shimigami that hunted them, two hollows, or arrancar as they were called, went relatively unnoticed. Of course unlike the hollows who just want to devour human souls, these arrancars were in karakura town to catch the sights and enjoy themselves, as they had some sense of intelligence about them. That and they found human souls not very tasty, more so due to the immense effort that goes into getting one, and the miniscule reward from it, unlike hunting hollows. Though this time they were more enjoying the human world than hunting.

"Hey MC, have you tried the burgers from this shop? they're pretty good!" The female arrancar said, handing the man a small diamond for payment, the man puzzled but happy at the generous payment. "I bet Light. But I'm more of a drinks sorta guy. Like this juice over here. I dunno what its called, but it tastes pretty peppy." the 'male' arrancar replied, the nearby drink machine overloaded due to being zapped by electricity, which caused it to constantly spit out drinks, the nearby people scooping the drinks up as they came out.

How could two Arrancars, spiritual beings, interact just fine with the human world? It was all thanks to the masks they wore, which only the two of them saw. These masks, conjured by the male looking arrancar MC, caused the two arrancars to look human, which also translated onto the human plane. Plus hollows could already interact with the human world, though only as invisible things to the average human, so it only made sense.

The two of them took in the sights, MC conjuring diamonds for Light to use as payment for whatever she wanted to buy, occasionally buying things himself. The two only seemed to be interested in different food products though, unlike the other shoppers nearby who were buying cloths and technology from the other shops on the plaza. Each shopkeeper gave the pair the same odd look as they were casually passed a diamond instead of actual money, wondering exactly who these two strange people were, but still accepting the payment anyway.

Things went on like this for about an hour, Light mostly eating food while MC bought different drinks, until the two found themselves in the park, looking for more sights to see. At this moment they saw the soul of some recently deceased girl, another live girl apparently talking to it, and a shimigami looming over the pair. The two didn't really give them more then a second glance though, and moved onwards. they didn't get too far from the trio when another hollow showed up, this hollow interested in the girl's soul, though also vaguely interested in the two 'humans' that were right in front of it. (Due to another one of MC's abilities, the two had the spiritual pressure of normal humans at the moment, instead of other hollows.)

"Great... a dog. And not a fun one either." Light said as the hollow approached the two, apparently oblivious to the shimigami not 2 blocks away. the wolf like hollow howled, while MC conjured a small wrestling bell as Light cracked her knuckles. and as the hollow lunged, MC rang the bell, at which point Light landed a nasty uppercut into the jaw of the attacking hollow, knocking it skyward. Now bored with the distraction, not to mention the shimigami nearby, the two walked away, Light pointing out another place for them to check out, commenting that she had filled up on hot dogs anyway. The hollow she had punched landed close to the trio near the park bench, disoriented from the flight.

Nekketsu Keiko, Shin'ō Academy, Seireitei

The Head Captain wasn't the only ranked member of the Gotei 13 hanging around the Academy out of boredom, it turned out. Even before she had arrived, a blur in a red beret was buzzing about excitedly, poking her head in to see what the new trainees were up to. It wasn't as though Keiko was shirking her duties or anything, as she'd already finished all her paperwork for the day, but there were probably better things for her to be doing right now. But no, instead here she was, swiftly moving from trainee to trainee, acting as though they were the most amazing thing in the world.

To be fair, though, she seemed to act like that towards just about everything she came across.

When the Head Captain made her challenge, however, her attention was drawn away from the aspiring Reapers to her superior officer. Practically leaping across the whole courtyard, she landed beside her, giving a rather intricate salute as she unintentionally towered over the shorter girl.

"Oh gosh oh golly it's the... The Head Captain Commander Person Thingy! Hey, remember me?" The blue-haired Reaper bounced about all around Kotohime, absolutely giddy about being in the presence of the highest ranked member of the Gotei 13, only occassionaly stopping to bask in her glory. "Do you remember me? Lieutenant Nekketsu Keiko of Squad Five? Do you? Do you do you do you you remember me right? I mean we only really met once before but I'm sure I made an impression on you at least I hope I did did I? Um, a-ahem, um..."

Turning to face the trainees, she gave a goofy smile as she kept pointing at Kotohime, as though to emphasise her existence as much as possible.

"Don't let her looks fool you! She may be a tiny adorable girl but her skill and power is HUGE! Like... Like a Gillian but only if we're comparing it to her size since really Gillians aren't that strong once you get the hang of them but still don't take her lightly! I'll be reeeaaally impressed if any of you can last even ten... No, even five seconds against her!"

...And then finally, Keiko stopped to catch her breath. How she'd managed to say all of that in a single breath is something that would confound anyone who met her, really.

Karakura Town

"Here Kitty Kitty Kitty, Here Kitty Kitty Kitty..." Aaron said out loud as he looked for his little cat who had ran off earlier. He had been searching for his little obnoxious cat, who had been making him chase the darn thing all over tower today, instead of doing something more important like earning money for the two of them to live. Of course he didn't need food to live, it was mostly for the rent they needed to pay for their apartment they stayed and the food to feed Amy.

Yes, he did went to school but lucky his cat liked to taunt him during his adventure today and walked along the campus as he was in School being terrorized in the horrendous art of Math, mostly Algebra. But he was in luck, as the bell rang before he abruptly got out of his seat and left to go chase down his cat who had cause all his problems today. Although he had a head start on that darn cat, he lost it mid-way across the campus as Amy entered an alleyway. His best option after the lost his cat companion was to traveled across the roof to look down to find that cat.

It wasn't hard to find Amy, as a loud bang was heard easily from his distance, something like a car which had hit something. It was most likely a Hollow who did that to a human, and where a Human and Hollow was, there was no doubt Amy would be there. He leaped across the roofs, with his Reiastu being suppressed and hidden, he quietly 'shunpo' over to the scene where he silent called for Amy. The cat had surprising survived the fatal Hollow attack, as she climbed up the building somehow and crawled over his shoulder, in shock from the hollow attacking the poor defenseless cat.

From below, he could see a human or what seemed to be one as he could sense that person reiastu briefly before his attention turned to the Quincy and Ghost below. But then from nowhere a shinigami too, appeared from nowhere. He sighed as today was growing stranger for him as people were beginning to just pop out of everywhere today. Now, we just need some Hollows or Arrancar to pop out and that would make his day..... And then came the Dog... Another thing that just randomly popped out of nowhere that seemed to be neutral for the moment.

Yukihime Tomoko, Shin'ō Academy, Seireitei

What a sorry bunch of trainees. One of them, a girl, had even managed to trip herself up and fall, her rear in the air as the fact that she really was that clumsy sank in. At least, this is what the diminutive lieutenant assumed. Tomoko had, simply, been out on a quick errand when she felt something right from the academy. To put it simply, there was no way she would miss this. And, well, why not take a seat when it was offered?

The trainee opened her eyes, her long pink hair pooling around her head, in time to see Tomoko pat her backside much like it was a cushion... and then sit down. Oh, it wasn't that much weight even in such an awkward position, Tomoko knew that. Besides, it was fun getting that kind of look. And it was a good seat to watch the upcoming show! A show the Eleventh Division Lieutenant had no intention of missing out on. She glanced over shoulder, down at the pink-haired trainee. The tiny black-haired girl simply smiled. She was feeling playful, and the rather surprising presence of fangs was openly displayed as she grinned down at the unfortunate girl. Or fortunate, she was a mere trainee and Tomoko was a Lieutenant. She should clearly be happy to be used as a cushion!

... That thought was so ridiculous Tomoko couldn't help but giggle to herself. Still, the girl was going to endure it for now. "Sit still, trainee. Think of this as your punishment for managing to trip yourself up so badly. It could be worse, couldn't it? You have the cute and adorable Eleventh Division Lieutenant as company!"

With that, ignoring the confused sounds coming from the trainee, Tomoko rested her elbows on her knees and her chin on her hands. "Besides, that's the Head Captain. I'm not missing this."

Shin'ō Academy

There was one instruction for the fifth division's lieutenant: "Referee if someone hits."

"Ooh, feisty," was all that Kotohime could get out before she had to focus on fighting--well, not so much 'had to' as 'wanted to'. If she didn't focus, there was still effectively no chance of her being injured... but the risk to the students was far higher. For instance, all these swords: whilst she could have dropped to the ground and just lashed out as hard as possible, this would probably result in one less potential shinigami in the future. Whilst the squads were hardly lacking for manpower, ruining a future potential captain just because she wasn't paying attention was undesirable.

Thus, the head captain's response was much flashier: hop onto one of the swords, maintaining her balance for just long enough to introduce its wielder's face to her foot, and then hop backwards onto another sword. Really, it was quite sad; these trainees hadn't even been handed asauchi. It was depressing; none of them posed the slightest threat unless they had the sheer power to maybe sneak a hit in. She didn't feel anyone like that around--even though there were quite a few watching.

The second student to meet her displeasure, before the first had noticeably completed his path to the ground, was a girl who found herself hoisted up by the diminutive leader, blinking and trying to work out what was going on--before being cast away. Not, however, on any wild trajectory: Kotohime was aiming straight for Agarashi. Always good to keep her captains on their toes.

"You better have some sake for me, y'hear?"

The scarred shinigami dropped back to the ground, feeling that things were getting a bit crowded. The trainees were preparing for a second strike--so she retaliated in advance, snatching one lagging blade, and spinning it round to trip as many of the novices as possible. Fortunately, she missed the owner, and it was returned in due order: handle to the face.

She wasn't using her zanpakutou. This didn't mean she couldn't use the bokken the morons were trying to hit her with.

Angelo sighed loudly not even ten minutes in and already he was being called down by the ball and chain of his life but he couldn't help teasing junko about it "help you even though I drew the short stick and went and got the groceries in the first place? SURE why not!?" Angelo said sarcastically as he stretched his back making it crack loudly in the empty warehouse as he breathed a loud sigh of relief then he shunpo down next to junko "of course ill help dear, how about this we go out on a nice romantic evening?" Angelo asked only teasing her since that was one of the few pleasured Angelo actually had was to tease the motherly figure of warehouse about being his considering that Angelo didn't bother using the tv since Ezekiel was always watching tv so Angelo had the few comforts of teasing junko and of reading his comic books that he had stashed in his nest so Ezekiel wouldn't find it and want to read them.

Angelo went over and started to set up the table for junko as he watched Ezekiel listen to his music then once everything was set Angelo went and put the groceries they had left in their "fridge" which was no more then an old ice box Angelo found one day in the junkyard that Angelo thought they would use to preserve their food at least for a few days if nothing else ready to help junko with the other stuff like cooking but junko also knew that she would have to face more of Angelo teasing if she let him stay and help...

Karakura Town

Karakura Town wasn't usually this odd, not as far as Martha remembered. A hub of spiritual activity, of course, but this was strange even for that.

To say she was cautious of the bandage clad stranger would be underselling it, for not only was this the second individual who she mentally filed as a pseudo-Shinigami, this one dressed in a manner less than reassuring. Their reiatsu was constrained, held back by force of will, but still overwhelming in a sense. Martha really did not want to fight a foe she knew nothing about, but the possible necessity made its self-evident once she caught on to it; a hollow.

Martha's reaction was instant, her Great Bow forming once more from surrounding spirit particles and held up in a position that was ready to fire. It wasn't totally a hollow, which was the odd thing, a strange amalgamation between the sensation of a Shinigami and her quarry. Still, all you needed was a bit of Hollow to send the alarm bells off in Martha's head. She formed no arrow, not yet at least, squinting her hawk-like eyes at the stranger. Through her actions and body language, she communicated her point clearly: She was ready to fight.

Martha snorted in mock amusement at the stranger's question. "I feel two things from you, creature. Neither should belong together." She stated sharply, her finger tugging at the bowstring somewhat. "What are you?"

Then came the other fellow. Ominous cloaks and coats were in season, it seems. In her mind, the situation had gone from one potential foe to two, warranting the forming of a spear-like arrow, drawn and ready to fire at any one of the two strangers. What followed was unexpected but welcome - the return of Uzami's spirit to her body. It only begged the question of who the second stranger was. He'd left, leaving Martha with the out-cold form of a schoolmate, the first stranger and a Hollow corpse. This night was getting way too freaky too fast.

She turned her complete focus to the Shinigami-Hollow, aiming. "A friend of yours?"

Tomoko glanced up. Well. There was the Fifth Division Captain. Huh. She raised her eyebrows, surprised at his sudden appearance for a moment, as he seemed somewhat annoyed... but really, she should know better. The moment he asked about the snacks, she couldn't help but grin again and display her fangs. It was a more cheerful and less mischevious one then she had flashed the unfortunate pink-haired student. She was awfully cute, really. The perfect, if unfortunate, seat. "Trust me, if I knew what was going to happen, I would've brought along every piece of candy I own, sir. I probably could've sold some to the spectators..."

Then she shrugged. "If I didn't eat them all myself."

Oh, dear, the student was really getting strained now... maybe Tomoko would think of a way to compensate her for supporting the Captain, too. Maybe some sweets or something. Then again, maybe if she was this good as a cushion she shouldn't have any more sweets. Certainly there had to be another way. But now was not the time to think on how to compensate the trainee for what had started as a punishment.

"Two minutes? I don't think they'll even last one," she added, when the Captain brought up betting. Seriously, this was the Head Captain they were talking about. The students would be lucky to manage that.

... And almost on cue one of them went flying towards her. Well, more towards Captain Igarashi, but she happened to be there as well. And so, Tomoko's only real option was to immediately duck to avoid being hit in the face with some body part or another.

Karakura Town

While Light started to walk off towards another group of lights, unsure of what they were but curious all the same, MC held her back, pointing in the direction of the Quincy, shimgaim-thing, and spirit. The pair watched as an interesting turn of events unfolded as more people arrived, another cloaked person with roughly the same energy that the first one in bandages had, according to MC anyway. "Hey Light, if you wanna check it out, I'm game. At worst they should only see us as Vizards, at best humans. Just stay near me and don't take off your mask." MC said as the two approached the group of travelers.

They watched as the newcomer had somehow rejoined the spirit to the body of the human who had just died, a technique MC was interested in due to being new, but not too fond of either. Of course now that he was closer, MC could sense that one of the fellows was part hollow, the other... a candy?, while the girl, who had drawn a spirit bow and aimed it at the hollow guy, was a Quincy.

"Hello!" Light chimed cheerfully at the group. "How did you do that? And what did you do?" She continued, acting like she was any ordinary human, and she would look just like one due to the illusion mask she wore, although with blue hair and a blue dress.

"Yes, I'm curious as well." MC said, his human illusion wearing a fancy blue robe with a yellow cloak and hood. "What did you just do and how?"

"Also, why is that girl holding some sort of glowing bow?" Light continued, remarking at how strange the situation was with a cheery smile. MC didn't comment, as unlike Light, he was unable to lie, and they were trying to give the idea that they were just humans, knowing how hostile things would potentially become, and how the pair were just looking for a good enjoyable night, and not a destructive battle.

Karakura Town, Ikijigoku Pub

"Order up!"
Within the dim Ikijigoku Pub, a small crowd of rowdy drinkers shoved and joked, laughing amongst each other while sharing in dazed stupors. Among them, lining up his shot on a pool table in the corner, was Baldir. In one smooth motion, he hit the white cue ball and cleared the table in a symphony of clacks and rattles. A hearty grin crossed his face as another man standing across from him spitefully tossed a crumbled up wad of cash onto the table before grabbing his drink and stumbling away. "Hey don't be so salty man! I'm just on a lucky streak." Shouted Baldir rather arrogantly. Personally, he had half hoped the man would get irritated enough throw a punch. But being a rather large man, he rarely received any challenge from the regulars at a small town bar like this. Collecting his winnings, Baldir seemed completely oblivious to the strange, clearly suspicious blonde man who entered. Realistically, many suspicious characters came and went when came to places like bars and clubs, so Baldir had no reason to single the man out. However something about him seemed familiar as he made his way through the crowd and took his seat. There was no clear sign of reiatsu as far as he could tell. Then again even if there might be, a suspicious looking man like that would likely hide it. Even so, something about the man reminded Baldir of himself. However, before he could gather any conclusions, another sucker had made their way over to the pool table with the drunken confidence to take him on, and Baldir was not the type to refuse a challenge. Little did the patrons of this bar know, he had a couple thousand years of experience in bar games to back him up. Pool was like pie.

"What was that Amy?" Aaron said confused as he almost did not see the stranger who landed next to him, but he did luckily out of the corner of his eye he barely caught him. He sighed as he sprawled down, laying on his stomach as he watched the group down on the street, clearly interested in what was going on. This might be one of the few times this place might not be so boring, after all nothing much happens here in Karakura Town. So, might as well enjoy this while it last cause this might be one of the most interesting events that might happen when he is alive. So, from the rooftop he looked at the group below trying to study their Reshi signatures and seeing if he could determine what they were. From a easy observation, he could determine that one of the girl was a Quincy, but the others seemed to be more difficult to examine as they had their Reshi suppressed

Amy on the other hand was distracted by the two... strange looking people, who were talking to the Girl down on the street. Her vision seemed to be blurry on the two, but when she looked at the girl, she was normal. Her curiosity was around the mask those two strange humans wore and she wanted to play with them, as she jumped off Aaron's shoulder and climbed down to the alley way, into the group.

Nekketsu Keiko, Shin'ō Academy, Seireitei

"Aye-aye, captain!" Keiko performed the same overly-elaborate salute she had given Kotohime, nodding emphatically to her direct superior. She never really understood why everyone thought he was weird... Then again, she thought that pretty much every captain was incredibly cool. As well as all the other lieutenants. And a surprisingly large number of her subordinates, and those huge guys that guarded the gates, and even though they were evil and nasty and all that some of the Hollows at least looked pretty awesome, and...

To be perfectly honest, there wasn't much that Keiko didn't find fascinating and exciting in some way or another. Her viewpoint always seemed to be "it exists, thus it is awesome". And speaking of awesome...

"Wowzers!" The lieutenant squealed excitedly, as the first challenger went flying past her barely seconds after attempting to attack Kotohime. "You're so awesomely amazingly... Awesome, Captain Commander Leader General Minamoto!" Keiko couldn't help but pump her arms in the air like some kind of undead samurai cheerleader as the Head Captain made short work of the first wave of challengers.
