[b][i]"What!?"[/i][/b] The large soul reaper's booming voice was surely heard by every spiritually sensitive person in town. The message that the butterfly had relayed was not one he'd expected, nor was he very happy to hear it. On top of this, the lieutenant thought it a good time to start playing games. In a much lower voice he added "You're insane. We can't abandon the mission" and then, through his teeth "No matter how much we want to". Aoshi looked at the hollow and its mysterious companion once again. The hollow was in itself not the most powerful one he'd ever come across, and this time he had backup. The stranger on the other hand was hard to get a read on. "That other guy must be a rogue reaper." He stated. Not even aware of how close to the truth he actually was. He'd never even heard of visored before. "Damn shame, but it means we have an ally in case the hollow turns hostile. Haven't heard of a rogue yet who's sided with the hollows." After a few seconds thinking... "I say we get down there and see what's up. This hollow's supposed to be special, maybe it can be reasoned with. If it willingly allows us to send it to the other side it beats the hell out of having to fight it. Maybe that's just what that other guy is up to... What do you say?"
