Ryan raised an eyebrow as Miyume started asking about him being a hollow. "I'm not a hollow... I'll answer all when you're finished your mission..." He then looked to Shiro and began talking about the training he was going to be doing. Shiro asked about the necessity to control his spiritual energy, and Ryan raised the eyebrow once again. "You think it's unneeded to control your spiritual energy? Keep how high yours is in mind, and think about all your battles. All of them may have had the energy there, but if you don't use it properly, then it's not even half as useful as it could be." He glared at Shiro for a moment, "If having the power, but not using it correctly was all it took to be strong, then why would the captains of each squad other than squad eleven always have a bankai to use?" He unsheathed his zanpakuto, holding it in front of him for Shiro to see. "I could fight you with just my sealed state, and I could very well beat you. However, since I'm not using the power I have access to because of my control, it would be a much more difficult fight. But, if I go bankai, the chances of you winning are much lower..." He sheathed his zanpakuto before speaking once more. "Sorry about the long explanation, but whether or not you know it, control is as much a part of your strength as the power is... Ready to begin your training?"

Squad 3's mission (for Hikari)
The flickering spiritual energy had stayed in generally the same area for a while, but suddenly disappeared. It reappeared quite a bit closer to Chie and Miyume. The flickering of energy began to happen more often, making the spiritual energy much more noticeable.
(For Chie and Miyume) Though they didn't get much information from the people, a child with red hair walked closer to them. The odd spiritual energy flickering quite noticeably. As he passed the two, he silently took the coinpurse from a random passerby, and began to run as fast as he could. It seemed almost like he made it obvious to them he had stolen.

Julia sighed as she listened to the description of the mission. She glanced to Kenta as he called her an odd name, but left it be. If that's what he knew her as, what was she to change it? Plus, she didn't plan on going on any other missions for squad six, so she wouldn't have to work with him after this if it started bother her at all later. She followed after him, "I guess I see why he sent me on this mission... Punishment squad and all..." She glanced to him, "What's your squad like, anyway? Other than the harsh captain, that is..."

John had waited too long to join a squad. He was sure that if he waited any longer he would likely be put back into the soul reaper academy to wait for next year to join a squad. He sighed, heading to the squad six barracks. All about law, right? they should be the kind of people that will help me become a better person... He got a confused look as a pair of soul reapers passed him, one of which being called Bigtitsmcgee? That seemed like an odd name for a person, but decided it was probably a nickname of some sort. He walked towards squad six's barracks, saying loudly enough to be heard so long as someone was listening. "Hello? I'd like to join squad six if there's room?"
