As the two talked, Ayashi looked back and forth between them like she was a child, and had said nothing the whole time. Though the part about being executed if the Central found out, and being taken control of if he failed to defeat his Hollow within in an hour, it made her frown. She was beginning to like him, and he was a good guy, he didn't deserve it. But she was thankful the third seat decided to help, though that didn't bring down her fears of Squad twelve, which was why she was thankful Yu pulled her out. She feared being in there, when they were out and Yu stopped talking her emotionless took over and she gave him a tight hug ignoring his apology. Not caring if her breast squished against him like before. She hugged him still, speaking, "I'm glad he's helping you out Yu!" she spoke softly as she lifted on her toes a bit to rest her head against his shoulder.

Rio abruptly stopped running, facing forward with her mouth ajar and her eyes slightly wider. She gulped, unable to move. Kaizo's last words to her echoed through her mind. Yet again Rio found her hands holding her arching head. Gritting her teeth and closing her eyes, Rio leaned back, just about to launch into a run.

As Kaizo worked on getting more wood for the shack he sensed Rio's spiritual energy not that far off which made him drop the logs he was holding and burst into a run which then turned into a continues use of shunpo but doing this opened up a few more wounds but this didn't phase him "I have to tell her...I have to let her know she isn't alone!" Kaizo then began shunpoing faster and faster until he reached near her, he saw her then about to burst into a run and jumped out to her and grabbed her left wrist with his right hand to stop her running "Rio...don't leave...not again...People need you here, I need you here...I want to help you all that I can! you don't need to go away and be alone to get stronger stay here and let me help you...we can grow stronger together..."

Henry laughed a little nervously at her saying he could meet her Zanpakuto. "That would be great and all, except I would probably drown, and my illusions won't stop that from happening." Henry then watched her roll over, then proceed to roll back to her original spot which raised a smile as this girl was strange, strange enough to make him look normal, and he loved it. She then asked a question about Snow. "Well Snow is this white stuff that falls from the sky, and it can be soft, yet it can also be hard. I would say it's nice to hold, it would be freezing to hold it, but you can hold it. It was also determined, well between them anyway the new name for the jellyfish. Henry then grinned nervously as he wasn't sure how to respond to Sango wanting to stare at his eyes forever. Yet what she said next was what left him speechless. She didn't know what a parent was? "You.... don't know what they are? Well.... They are the ones that gave birth to you. They are ones that take care of you until you can do it on your own."

Ōhi Sango

Sango laughed more genuinely this time at what Henry said about what would happen if he entered her inner world. "Oh! You can't breathe underwater? I can hehe" She then sat up straight and began writing more notes in the dirt. "So that was what that was called! The white, fluffy puffs are snow! Got'cha!" She continued to write then stopped and put her stick down. "I like cold things, I'm used to them" Sango smiled before watching Henry's reaction when she asked about what a parent was. This made her feel like she said something wrong. Shifting a little, Sango looked away nervously. "S-Sorry! I-I... Just never heard of one..." She gripped the edge of her dress and shifted her eyes to look down, saddened all of a sudden. "D-Densen takes care of me... I've never had anyone else.... They took me away before I could... " Closing her eyes, Sango gulped before opening them again and looking at Henry. "D-Did I do something wrong H-Henry T-T-Tobias? Was I meant to have a 'parent'?" She asked, her voice a little more quieter this time.

Yu was a little surprised at her sudden hug, yet he didn't really mind it as he hugged her back. Yu nodded in agreement when she was thankful for Zero agreeing to help him, even keep his little power a secret from the Central 46. As she rested her head against his shoulder, it only made Yu more positive to keeping her away when Yu does battle his Hollow. "Hey, Ayashi, when I do fight it. promise me you will stay far away from me? I.... I don't want to harm you, so promise me that you will be far away when that day comes."

Henry watched her reaction to the whole parent thing, it was sad enough to cause his own sad expression. Everything she said only made him feel sad for the girl, who were 'they' that she kept talking about, and were they good or bad. Henry wasn't sure what to do, so he gave her a quick hug before letting her go. "My bad, I got your question mixed up with something else, the parent I was thinking of is different. You do have a parent, I would guess it to be Densen. The parent you are thinking of is someone you knew for a long time, that cares for you." What Henry said, was obviously just him trying to make her think he got questions mixed, so she wouldn't be sad. So he had to hope that this little lie would work. It's not that he wanted to lie, he just didn't want her to be sad.

The wind hit him in the face as he walked around the place. He had no idea of where to go or what to do in this place. He saw people everywhere, but he was a bit to shy to ask anyone about where he should be going. He walked around for a while, turning his back when big groups of people came towards him and walked down alleys to avoid social contact. After being as lost as possible for several hours he felt someone lay a hand on his shoulder. He swallowed the giant lump in his throat and turned around."He...Hey" He muttered out as he looked at the guy in front of him. The guy was bigger then Emilo in more ways then one. "Do you even know what you are doing ?" Emilo was asked and as a reply he just gently shock his head

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

When Rio felt the grip on her left wrist she immediately halted her actions... her heart felt as though it stopped beating at that exact moment. She literally couldn't move, only listen to Kaizo's words. After he spoke, her gaze slowly rolled onto the floor. "B-But... " She let out a breath as her complicated feelings began to boil. This only seemed to happen when she was with Kaizo... And it used to happen when she was with Kenta... "I-I... This..." She was finding it unusually difficult to speak, all the work she put into growing cold had began to wash away at that moment. Kaizo's voice touched her, it reached out to her. Unknowingly, a sad smile formed on her lips. "I... don't want to be a bother..." She whispered, trying to tug her wrist out of his grip but failing. "Kaizo... I don't want to hold you back" A tear left her eye which caused her to lift her right arm and wipe her eyes with her sleeve. "I must look so pitiful r-right now heh heh..."

As he hugged her back, she let out a breath, one that would surely hit his neck. As he spoke about keeping her away if he had to fight, she hesitated before answering. With a small stutter, she finally did reply, "Y-Yu, I would want to be there to support...." she stopped and thought about it, it would sort of be like a last request for her to stay away. She understood that, and decided to go along with it. If he wanted her to stay away, then she would, for him. "Yeah, I promise. I'll stay away if you have to fight him, but be aware that this doesn't put a doubt in my mind that you will survive. You're strong, so you'll win." As she finished, her hug got a bit tighter and she gave a small laugh, "We shouldn't spend this time worrying though, let's go do something else in the meantime. Maaaaybe take your partner out to dinner?" she half joked.

"Rio...You can't hold me back...only help me grow stronger and in turn I want to help you grow stronger and support you in whatever you choose to do...leaving now wont do either of us good...I don't know what you think but shutting your feelings away from the world wont make you stronger...it just gives you one large weakness...if you are open about everything then you can turn these small weaknesses into strength's and to do that you need others to help you...I will be one of those others that help you...I'd give my life to help you...after all you gave me a warm place to rest my head and live and I can not thank you enough for that so you can refuse my help but I wont stop trying to help you...I can't...it's not something I can just turn off..." Kaizo didn't want to release his grip on her wrist just yet...he didn't want her to run...he needed her to see that there were better ways to get stronger.

When Ayashi agreed to stay away during the time he smiled a little thankful she didn't argue the subject. While it did make him happy that she had confidence in him winning against the being inside him, he himself wasn't so sure. He had two encounters with it, with both being him whacked around like a rag doll, to him he would have to come up with plenty of tricks to be able to beat the thing. Yet would that worked? The being seemed to know Ayashi, could it see through his eyes, peer into his memory? It was all confusing to him. Yu then listened as Ayashi joked around with what Zero said a little while ago, yet Yu smirked and said. "Sure thing, and where would my partner like to eat."

Ōhi Sango

Sango saw Henry's sad expression, causing her bottom lip to begin trembling. She was rather empathetic and hated when people were upset so she always tried to stay enthusiastic to cheer them up... Not that she had to do that a lot since Densen was the only person she had. Henry then suddenly hugged her. Sango didn't know what to do in this situation... She knew that Henry wasn't a threat so she wasn't afraid, but she wasn't sure whether she liked what he was doing. However, Sango just let Henry hug her while closing her eyes.... She actually liked, no, she loved the feeling. It was something she had never experienced before... despite the hug being short, it made her feel all warm and fuzzy inside, which made her cheeks heat up for some unknown reason. Once he let go, she looked down, stroking her right arm with her left, her cheeks still red but she didn't understand why they felt so warm... All she knew was that she liked whatever Henry did. "O-O... Okay!" It didn't take her long before she reverted back to her usual self. Densen didn't know what to think of what happened but chose to ignore it. This was Sango's first real friend so he didn't want to ruin anything before she got a chance to enjoy it... Sango then moved closer to Henry, a look of concentration on her face. "I wanna do it again..." Her tongue poked out between her lips a little as she concentrated on mimicking Henry's actions. It was awkward, but she got there in the end and softly hugged Henry, closing her eyes. "This feels nice" She uttered against his neck innocently.

Ryan watched the group for the mission leave and then looked to Shiro. "While they're investigating that, you'll be in a training mission. Currently, you're about equal with the others, but if you can learn to control your spiritual energy, you'll rise quickly." He marked down on a paper the start of one mission, as well as the start of a training session with Shiro. "You'll need to control your spiritual energy before this training will be any fun for you, but since you seem to like battle, it will be fun once you've gotten some control over your spiritual energy, understand?"
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Squad 3's Mission:
(for Hikari)No spiritual pressures would seem to be nearby, but every so often one would flicker near district forty. The flicker would seem to turn it into a similar spiritual energy to a vaizard's, but would then return to normal.
(for Chie/Miyume) ... You get no information until you've started searching....
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Julia frowned "That's understandable I guess..." She sighed then looked at him, "Do you already have a mission in mind, or do you want to know what kind of zanpakuto I have so you can find a good one to get done?"

Henry smiled relieved that what he said seemed to have worked, he didn't feel that good tricking her, but seeing her happy was better than sadness. he then watched as Sango moved closer, he had a curious look, so when she said she wanted to do it again, he wasn't so sure what she meant, but he eventually found out as she gave him a soft hug in return. He was a little nervous as he had never really been on the receiving end of a hug before, besides from his parents and her saying it felt nice didn't make him feel any less nervous, yet he decided to hug her back, who was he to deny someone a hug, that was just rude.

"I know a place," she said softly as she got off of her toes and broke the hug. Taking his hand, she led him to a restaurant in one of the districts. It was in one of the nicer, more peaceful districts. The restaurant was a couple thing, and although the two weren't a couple, Ayashi thought it was funny to go along with the joke. And so she did, hugging his arm and resting her head against his arm as they walked. "This is the place~" she said as they walked in. She booked them a seat and she sat down, once he sat down she rested her face on her hands watching him, "So, honey," she joked, "How do you like the place? Nice, right?"

Kaizo didn't want to release his grip on her wrist just yet...he didn't want her to run...he needed her to see that there were better ways to get stronger.

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

Rio stayed silent. If she could break this easily then there was no hope for her... He was right, locking her feelings away only made her weaker... But being controlled by her feelings wouldn't do any good either... She needed a balance, and she needed guidance, she was just too prideful to ask for it... That just shows how much she had changed since she first joined Squad 6. "Fine... I don't want to argue anymore... I'm too tired to do that... I guess you kept your promise...." Despite her sad tone, she smiled. "... I-I'm sorry about earlier... I didn't mean to be so harsh to you... Shocked myself actually. Anyway... Well... I should go back... I need to rest since all I've been doing is training this whole time..." Once Kaizo lets her go, Rio would make her way back into the Seireitei... She wanted to stick around but she felt that if she did, she'd pass out again from exhaustion... So she needed rest...

Chie about fed up with waiting for Miyume left on her own and once she reached district thirty she started to sense around. she could feel a few strong spiritual pressures, but nothing like what the captain showed, this was going to be harder than she thought, and with Miyume being all slow, it would only be more difficult. She decided to investigate the spiritual pressures that were the strongest, yet upon investigation, they all seemed to be simple normal grown men, nothing that matched the Captains description.

She booked them a seat and she sat down, once he sat down she rested her face on her hands watching him, "So, honey," she joked, "How do you like the place? Nice, right?"

As she broke the hug mentioning a place, she grabbed his hand and led him there, the district itself was seemingly quite calm and peaceful. It would almost go along perfectly with him supposed to be relaxing. Yu then saw her hug his arm resting her head against it as they got to the building. As they entered and sat down. He looked at Ayashi who called him honey, then asked what he thought of the place. Yu smiled in return and said. "Yes quite so. Might I say you are looking quite beautiful today." Yu then relaxed a bit in his eat and smiled as he looked at Ayashi directly in her eyes.

I feel a flicker....It's repeating....Little often.....Normal, Vizard....Judging from the other Spirit Energies around that area it's District forty. Two districts away, one district away from Miyume and Chie so they could get there faster, that's if they're even there. Shit, might as well go! Hikari thought as he opened his eyes and shot off into the air shunpo'ing towards district forty. He closed his eyes and traveled, blocking out the other energies and focusing on the flickering one. Once he got close he realized he was in district forty, causing him to open his eyes and look around with his eyes while staying focused on it. He waited for another flicker to see where it was exactly. Where are ya little fella, Hikari thought as he looked around. He then noticed Miyume and Chie weren't there, well, he did focus all his time into speed and knew he was more than likely faster than the two. But that thought was pushed away, he stayed focus on his mission.

Viole sat on a blue disc of reiatsu, hovering above the battlefield and away from all life...it was unsafe. The amount of death around him was intoxicating. He was able to feel their screams and pain the entire time. His fingers were crossed, his forehead against his hands, shadowing his eyes. On his lap, was the corpse of a duck which he held to be dear. It was the only thing he had connected with, but yet it was taken from him. With every inch of strength, he held himself back from going to Hueco Mundo and annihilating the ones responsible for the deaths of so many innocent souls. "They were so young..." Viole closed his eyes tightly, looking up into the air "Oh Rah..." A tear went down his eye, as he held the duck in his hands. It ignited in a blue flame, it ashes being taken by the winds and eventually vanishing, returning back to the land. "Is this the lesson you wanted me to learn..." The blue disc began to crack as Viole thought to himself. Shortly after, it shattered into pieces. With nothing to hold Viole, he plummeted downwards, only thinking to himself.

Shiro

Shiro listened to the Captain then let out a grunt "Psh! Why do I need to control my spiritual energy!? What about that Kenpachi guy who couldn't control his! he was a monster! Unless this training and missions help me improve in skill and allow me to use more of my spiritual energy I see no point...controlling it isn't something I'm that bothered about...having access to all of it is...I'm hitting a limit here and I have much more I can use! I can feel it!!"

Kurisa

Kurisa listened to the girl then spoke "There is no need for Shikai's in this mission..." Kurisa then raised his right hand as a hell butterfly landed on it then moments later it flew off to go find Kenta and tell him of a mission needing his urgent attention. "I'll explain the mission soon but be aware Shikai's will not be needed...this is strictly a sealed state sort of mission..."
