[IC] Bleach: A New Dawn

[Kurisa]

Shiro sat on a chair in his room, His Zanpakuto stabbed into the floor next to him, a pipe sticking out of his mouth as he puffed on it but this pipe wasn't because he liked smoking, it used a special tobacco that helped calm his Spiritual energy and his anger which in turn would allow him to enjoy fights more and control his Spiritual energy better and then there was the biggest change...Shiro's hair...he had gotten it cut after the recent events as it didn't look right however he thought about the recent event, it hit him hard and left a scar on his heart...an emotional scar if you will but he had to shut these feelings away. If he showed this side of him then the rest of Squad 11 would have no respect for him and becoming the Kenpachi would become an impossible dream...he wanted to prove everyone wrong and show he could become the Kenpachi but not only that, he wanted to show he could be one of the best if not the best Captain out of the Thirteen court guard Squads.

As Shiro thought about this a knock came at his door as he blew out a cloud of smoke then spoke "What is it?" The member outside then spoke "Shiro we were wondering if you could show Squad 11 a few things? you know...so we can be better when fighting, you are the closest thing to a Captain this Squad has so it would mean a great deal to us" Shiro closed his eyes then stood up and pulled his Zanpakuto out the floor and flicked it up onto his right Shoulder then opened the door "Very well...but be prepared to train hard..." Shiro walked past the Squad 11 member then began making his way down the hall as the member followed close behind Shiro. Shiro then arrived at two large doors and this time booted them open which caused a few of the members already waiting in the Training grounds to jump, Shiro then began walking out into the training grounds slowly as he spoke "You see what I just did?...no...you didn't did you? of course not and why was this? Actually...don't answer...I'll tell you why. It's because you weren't paying attention, you didn't expect the unexpected! Out on the battlefield...it only takes a millisecond for your opponent to cut you. if you get distracted for even the smallest amount of time you can bet your sorry ass that your opponent will pick up on that and go for an attack...when you fight you focus, you use skill and instinct...I know people would argue it's either one or the other but here you don't argue with me you listen to me...I'm the closest thing you got to a Captain so it's probably in your best interest to listen to what I say. Skill...of course...it helps you out there, it gives you the edge over the opponent especially if they were anything like me...no skill and all power...power means nothing if there is no skill to back it up. In my eyes back then I was just a crazy fool swinging a sword...however..." Shiro then stabbed his Zanpakuto into the ground "My skills are sharp and my power is being used in a more controlled way...then there is instinct...sometimes your eyes, your hearing and even your body cannot react to things but for some reason instinct breaks these rules and allows you to do almost the impossible...allows you to fight at a higher capability than before and with skills backing this up you become a truly fearsome opponent for any sorry fool that dares to challenge you. So...what I want you all to do is spar...of course with wooden Zanpakuto, I'm not having you idiots cutting eachother up! But...when you fight eachother...I want you to think about what I said and put it to practice, You will pair with random people so the skill levels are mixed allowing the skilled ones to fight the weaker ones...why you may ask? isn't this unfair?...no..the skilled ones of this Squad shall learn that for themselves if the weaker Shinigami's instinct's kick in...now get sparring!" Shiro watched as the Shinigami scrambled to grab a wooden Zanpakuto each and immediately they began fighting eachother. He didn't even know if this would work but it may do...and it'd be great if it did. He always followed his skills or more recently followed them but when his skill alone proved no good he used instinct...this with his skill...made him a fearsome opponent...as Lokura had found out....

[Zane620]

"I feel like that was suppose to be a smart remark at me being lazy. Oh well it's true, so I don't mind. And I can handle patrols, at least then I'm allowed to use my Shikai to float. But as long as i don't get stuck with a Captain that is super hyper and active then I'm good. Anyway I probably should go join Squad Thirteen already...." Sui said as she looked at her Zanpakuto across the room that was leaning against the wall. Sui then looked at him and back to the Zanpakuto. "Umm, can you toss that too me?"

---

Following her brother after they were given a mission to simply fight Hollows, the man didn't rally say how many to kill so I guess until they wore themselves out. Reaching the location, she unsheathed her Zanpakuto and nodded at her brother as she raised her Spiritual Energy with him causing Hollows to appear shortly afterwards, She shunpoed to the closest one and swung Her sword down through its head.

Rio listened to Kaizo, allowing him to kiss her again and give her a hug. Her eyes squeezed shut as she hugged Kaizo back. It took all ounces of her strength to prevent the single tear threatening to drop from escaping her eyes. She didn't want to cry, it was embarrassing... She just felt a little emotional since ever since she had lost her memories, no one was ever with her, beside her. Rio was used to just doing her own thing, staying alone as she kept to herself... At times it could be draining and difficult, but no matter what, she'd never give up and just kept moving forward. But now Kaizo's with her... And he feels the way he does... Rio may not be alone for the rest of her life after all. It felt different, would take some getting used to, but the bottom line was that it was good, very good. Rio hugged Kaizo a little tighter before letting go, looking down onto the table with a little chuckle. She looked back up at Kaizo, a warm happiness glowing in her eyes. She asked quietly.

Kaizo looked at Rio and smiled then she spoke and said about his tea causing him to look down at it then chuckle "Yeah..." Kaizo then began rubbing the back of his head "I guess it will be pretty cold...sorry about that. I'd love another if it's alright and this one I will drink! I promise!" Kaizo chuckled once again. He felt happy with how things were going. He was in his ideal Squad, he was with someone he couldn't get enough of and everything was going his way...it may have seemed to good to be true but it was true which made it just that much greater but he wouldn't take this for granted...not for a second

Nishiki Kalemoru

After her little ordeal, Nishiki slammed a fist into the nearest wall inside her room. She was in fact incredibly strong since fighting with multiple Scythes is never easy, this meant a large dent now occupied the wall while rubble to ran down it. "Goddammit! Every. Fucking. Time!" Luckily for her, she remember that her Zanpakuto had a time limit, in other words, she could only get dragged into the inner world after a certain amount of time had passed. She didn't know exactly how much time had to pass, but she did know when it was close to the time as she could feel has soul slowly being dragged. Clenching her fists, Nishiki growled, trying to let out her anger. She could feel Wrath at the back of her mind becoming more prominent than the other sins so she quickly tried to focus on something else to calm herself down, walking out of her room and into the Squad five's courtyard. 'Fucking Aizen and his bullshit betrayal... Leaving this squad Captain-less. How the fuck do I improve?! All I do is fight Hollows all day! That isn't making me or my soul stronger!' Frustrated, she stuffed her hands inside her pockets, ignoring the throbbing of her head and the pain from the bloody claw marks all over her body and face from the Hollows she had not long killed.

Nishiki went back to trudging the paths of the Seireitei again, this time without a destination to go to. She didn't want to bother Rio and she didn't need help from Squad four to heal her cuts, she'd prefer to let them heal themselves since she didn't care for the pain, she could take it. Suddenly, she heard the voice of a man shouting. It wasn't his shouting that alerted her, she had enough of that from Wrath to get a little used to it... It was more of what the guy was saying. "My skills are sharp and my power is being used in a more controlled way...then there is instinct...sometimes your eyes, your hearing and even your body cannot react to things but for some reason instinct breaks these rules and allows you to do almost the impossible...allows you to fight at a higher capability than before and with skills backing this up you become a truly fearsome opponent for any sorry fool that dares to challenge you." "Huh?" Looking up, she realised that she was in fact at the entrance of the Squad eleven barracks. 'I guess having a little look won't hurt..' Nishiki thought as she walked inside, acting as if she belonged in the Squad. There didn't seemed to be any guards out, probably they were training? Or maybe Squad eleven didn't really need guards? Walking deeper, Nishiki managed to make it toward the entrance of the training room, peaking her head around the side of the doorway to see what was going on.

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

"Heh, no worries, I'll get you another one" Rio smiled and grabbed Kaizo's cold tea, tipping it away into the sink of her kitchen before making another cup and placing it onto the table. She then walked over to her desk. "I hope you don't mind but I just need to finish writing a few reports for Captain Kuchiki. Oh and, by the way, have you been promoted to a seat yet? You seem suited for 3rd seat in my opinion from what I've seen. But maybe you should start off a little lower to get more used to your squad before reaching a higher seat" Rio gave Kaizo a quick smile before getting straight to work, making sure to put as much detail as possible into her work and triple-checking the grammar and punctuation. 'Boy, Kenta has been gone for a while... I hope he's Okay...' She thought idly to herself, letting out a little sigh.

Shiro watched as the weaker Shinigami of the Squad got beat back but as they did they soon began pulling of things they didn't even know they could do, they would get the occasional hit on their more experienced comrades which made Shiro grin a little then the grin went from his face as he took a puff of his pipe then Shiro threw his large Zanpakuto back behind him narrowly missing the nosy girls head as it stuck into the wall behind her. Shiro then turned and began walking towards the girl and spoke as he did "So can you tell me why you're here? I don't recognize your face and I aint got anything about someone transferring to this Squad so you best explain your intentions quickly...I am a busy man as you can see..." Shiro walked past the girl then ripped his Shikai out the wall and rested it on his right shoulder then turned to the girl "These Shinigami need training and I don't have time to waste...so you best speak up and quickly..." Shiro showed a serious expression and his tone was exactly the same. He didn't exactly like interruptions so this girl best have a good reason to be here...

Kaizo nodded and smiled at Rio "Thank you" Kaizo then sat down as Rio made him another cup of tea, which once it was placed down immediately he picked it up and sipped it ignoring how hot it was. Kaizo then listened to Rio speak then he closed his eyes for a moment before opening them and speaking "I am still unseated within my Squad...unfortunately...As it has no Captain it is hard to get promoted but I wont give up...I'd like to go straight for 5th seat or above but as those have responsibilities I really feel 6th seat would be a good place to sit whilst I get used to the way things work then I'd work my way up...although...saying that...there isn't really many in those seats...the third seat is taken but we haven't seen the guy in ages, it's as if he has died or something..." Kaizo then nodded and sipped his tea before speaking once again "Oh by all means you can finish your report...I could leave if you wanted the peace to focus?"

Daishin took a cleansing breath. The weights he wore were weighed just under the point where the strain would cause damage to his body. They would make it difficult to move up and ran the risk of breaking a shaft of her came down to hard on it. The 13th captain shunpoed, entering the thicket and shunpoing rapidly. There was hardly anything to watch. Along the course the hopeful shinigami would only catch glimpses and flashes of Daishin. It took only moments for him to make it to the last shaft, leaving a trail of triggers and otherwise courted or sighed traps. As he landed on the last bamboo shaft it lowered triggering the last obstacle. Daishin stood perfectly balanced on the shaft as a wave of logs came teac swinging at him from all directions. Seamlessly he moved his body without leaving his perch, weaving through the barrage of logs with incredible speed. Finally he stood motionless on the bamboo shaft with a hundred logs hanging around him. "I hope you enjoyed the demonstration~" The captain looked back at his visitor having known he was there the whole time and smiled. "Hello, I am Daishin Yu Xang. Captain of Squad 13."

Shusuke jumped a bit, not expecting to be called out like this. He gulped and then moved forward to be in complete view, he quickly bowed. "I wasn't eavesdropping on your training sir, I promise. I didn't wish to disturb you with my request." he said, now standing upright. "I'm here because I wish to join your squad Captain Yu Xang. I recently graduated and have already completed one mission so far." he spoke not to impress the man before him, especially with such a poor record but to simply inform him of his standing. "I am dedicated and will be loyal to the squad, if you'll take me sir."

Nishiki Kalemoru

As Nishiki continued to watched, amazed at some of the skill being portrayed, a large sword came flying her way straight past her head, landing in the wall behind her. It narrowly missed beheading her but it did give her a thin cut across the top of her right cheek which added to the three claw cuts across her left. She winced a little but quickly backed up as the owner of the sword walked passed her to retrieve it. 'Oh no...' This guy seemed to hold some authority which would mean that she was in great trouble for intruding. He spoke in a deadly serious manner which caused Nishiki to jump up, eyes a little wide. "M-My apologise, you must be the Captain of this Squad" She bowed and spoke at a fast pace since he did say that he was busy. "I'm Nishiki Kalemoru, unseated from Squad five. I was just passing by when I heard your speech and thought to check out this squad out. My situation is that my Squad is Captain-less and I need to get stronger, physically and mentally but I have no guidance and no clue what to do other than continuously fight Hollows which I have been doing this whole time. I apologise for intruding, I'll be on my way now and won't come back!" She stood up straight and turned her body towards the exit, about to leave. She was indeed already afraid of this man and didn't even know who he was so she thought the best thing to do was to just leave.

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

"Ahh, I see" Rio continued on with her report while listening to Kaizo. She wasn't the greatest at multi-tasking, but how can a person get better at something if they don't try? "Hmmm, I see you have quite the dilemma there. Well, you don't necessarily need to be named a rank to start acting worthy of said rank. Since your Squad is Captain-less and the third seat is missing, they may need someone to raise up and claim authority. Try and give yourself a little more responsibility, then the others in your squad will see that you are worthy of a title, you're going to have to prove it to someone to be awarded of the title. Take your mission experience into account also. You say you failed but what is the reason for that failure? Was it due to an unplanned intrusion? A mistake in mission details? Or was it due to your leadership? Just think about it for a moment. You managed to lead your group and keep them alive. By the way you looked when I bumped into you, it must not have been easy. That right there would reflect positively on your leadership skill and help prove your worthiness. Yes, you may have failed the mission objective, but you did not fail in leading your group and assure that there were no casualties" Rio then leaned back and looked over her shoulder at Kaizo, giving him a cheerful smile. "I respect that you probably hard on yourself sometimes purposely to push yourself to higher heights, but motivation to improve doesn't always have to be negative you know. Push yourself with both reasons due to both negative and positive experiences. Also, you seem to be pretty sure of your feelings for me, and I believe you fully due to how you've expressed them, trying putting that confidence into your abilities aswell" She then looked forward, back down at her work and let out a little chuckle. "Or maybe I'm rambling on and just creating silly theories or not making any sense... My apologises, it's just been a while since I've had a proper conversation with someone... And I feel like I can talk to you really easily... Which is.. Odd... But good" She smiled again. "And don't be silly Kaizo, you know I'd never want to leave. In fact, I enjoy your company greatly. However, if you have business to attend to then don't let me get in the way, go ahead and do what you need to do, I'll always be here whenever you need me" At this point in time, Rio had felt the happiest she had ever felt before. Just a few moments of having Kaizo in her company had caused her mood to sky-rocket. She felt as if she could do anything and everything as long as she had Kaizo by her side. This made her blush a little while grinning happily to herself and finishing the rest of her work.

As Henry climbed back up the walls after being drop kicked off he saw Mujihi standing near the end bending down smiling at him So? Did it hurt when you fell from heaven? Wait I mean the Garrison. Cause it sure as hell looked like it hurt. Mujihi said with a grin as as she extended her hand for Henry to grab only to take it back and kick him in the face sending him off the Garrison again. Henry fell and fell then landed on his back on the snow looking up at Sosa who was standing above him smirking Henry just looked up at her and smirked. "I can see your panti-" Henry said as Sosa stomped on his face interrupting him. Maybe I should take one of your eyes that fish girl likes soo much.

Shiro kept a serious expression as the girl spoke then as she went to walk off he grabbed her collar and stopped her "I didn't say you could leave. let me sort a few things out here. I'm not the Captain, simply acting as the Captain. I am the third seat Shiro Sora. If you stopped by hearing my speech that means something I said caught your ears and sounded promising otherwise you would have kept walking and being in a Captain-less Squad 5 will not help you get stronger...you need guidance and a good role model...I'm not saying I can guide you and I am not saying I am a good role model however I could temporarily fill those positions if you were willing to join this Squad.and help you but I don't see myself as the guiding type...not yet...and I am not exactly the greatest role model, maybe for Squad 11 perhaps but not anywhere else..." Shiro then let go of the girl and stabbed his Zanpakuto into the ground then crossed his arms "this is how I see it. You are in a dead end Squad going nowhere and you will continue to bang your head against the wall trying to get recognition by killing hollow where as if you were to join here your potential would be seen and you could actually get somewhere...you make the call...however this is one condition if you ever plan to join this Squad...We do not use Kido, not in the slightest...so you can forget about using any of that. If you really think staying in Squad 5 will help you get somewhere then by all means leave...however if you want the chance to actually get somewhere instead of holding out on something that wont come then join this Squad and I'll make sure you get the recognition and guidance you deserve..."

Nishiki Kalemoru

Nishiki felt the guy pull on her collar, causing her to stop moving and ridgedly turn her body towards him. 'Oh gosh you've really done it now Niki...' She gulped and prepared for the worst but instead got something entirely different. "J-Join your Squad?" Nishiki thought over what Shiro had said.... 'Hmm, leave my Squad to join another? He is right though, I won't get anyway in while being in Squad five... And I really need to start improving...' She looked down and scratched her head as she thought before remembering that Shiro was waiting for an answer. "Yes! Err.. I-I'm mean, I'd like to join your Squad, I agree with everything you've said. I hardly use Kido anyway, I don't need to nor want to. All I need is my Zanpakuto" She grinned widely and gave a little bow with her head. "Thank you greatly for the offer erm... Mr Sora, sir" She rubbed the back of her neck while giving a little nervous chuckle. "So, third seat, what should I do now?".

Kaizo nodded as he listened to Rio then he spoke "You're right...I should defiantly do all of that. I have tried to prove myself so far but nothing has really been recognized so i will assume some responsibility whether they like it or not...someone needs to step up to the responsibility. Well...your so called silly theories have defiantly helped me...I now know what I must do next so please do not apologize..." Kaizo then sipped his tea and spoke once again "I'm glad you find it easy to talk to me cause I find it easy to talk to you to...it makes me happy when I talk to you...well if that is the case then I shall stay. I have nothing else to do so I shall stay here and try my best to not distract you"

Squad 3's Mission
The visible boy's eyes widened as Hikari shouted the secret about his and his brother's fighting style. He frowned slightly before seeming to hear something else. He stepped between Chie and where the invisible one had been, taking the kido head-on. He was definitely injured, but he continued to stand. "Don't hurt my brother!!" He shouted, but stopped. He turned around to see that his invisible brother had been trapped by Miyume. He frowned before letting his image dissipate. As he turned invisible, the other brother became visible once again. "-et me go!" The sound of the now-visible brother's voice seemed to have been silent to any but his brother while he was invisible, but had just now began being heard. The wound from Hikari clearly visible. (If anyone's character is really good with their eyesight, send me a message, I may have something for you to learn)

"Well that's good then but quit your bowing! I don't care much for that crap! we are all like a family here so there is no need to bow to eachother! Well...anyway...Welcome to Squad 11! And don't call me Mr Sora! just call me Shiro...and well a start would be for me to show you around I guess...explain a few things for you. However I can't be asked to do that crap! You'll find your own way around and pick up things through everyday life. All I recommend for now is sticking close to me and watching for now and then we will try get you on a mission so you can start proving yourself and earning the respect of your Squad mates and then you will train to enhance your skill! However...tonight I feel like a little celebration! To celebrate the first Shinigami to join this Squad under my temporary command...hopefully it will turn into full command...but that's a bit in the future." Shiro pulled his Zanpakuto out of the ground then flicked it up onto his right shoulder then turned and walked into the training room "Follow me" Shiro watched as the Squad 11 Shinigami hadn't stopped even when he left the room...they let nothing distract them. Shiro waited until Niki got into the room before speaking "You see what they're doing? how nothing distracts them? their eyes fixed on their opponent? this is what we like to see in this Squad...Battle isn't just a case of swinging a fancy sword around it's a mindset...you have to be ready for everything and anything. That we will drum into you...but...I like to see what you can do first but that we shall do tomorrow when you go on a mission which I shall be on...I need to see what your capabilities are and how you fight, deal with situations, how fast you think and react and a great deal of other things...I hope you are prepared for that..." Shiro said as he looked on wards to the Squad 11 members however what he said was directed at Niki

I have tried to prove myself so far but nothing has really been recognized so i will assume some responsibility whether they like it or not...someone needs to step up to the responsibility. Well...your so called silly theories have defiantly helped me...I now know what I must do next so please do not apologize..." Kaizo then sipped his tea and spoke once again "I'm glad you find it easy to talk to me cause I find it easy to talk to you to...it makes me happy when I talk to you...well if that is the case then I shall stay. I have nothing else to do so I shall stay here and try my best to not distract you"

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

Rio smiled brightly. 'Ahh good, I wasn't annoying him with my jargon' She then put her head down and focused. "I'm glad I was somehow able to help you and make you happy heh. And Okay, I'm not sorry then" She giggled, speeding through her work. She wanted to finish tit as soon as possible. After about 20 - 30 minutes, Rio had lost track of time, she was finally finished. "There" She dusted her hands together to show a job well done. "I didn't have much to do since I've only been on one mission heh" Standing from her seat, she walked over to the table and cleared away Kaizo's cup, assuming he'd be finished by now. She then walked back over. "Hey Kaizo?" Once she had his attention, she'd bend over and give him a surprise, quick kiss before standing back up and unsheathing her Zanpakuto's. "How about a little training session with yours truly?~ And don't worry, my skills are sharper than last time~ Unfortunately, I've only learnt two more Shikai moves, that totals to three, Hana and Kan keep telling me that they can't teach me any more, it's not the right 'time' apparently, whatever that's supposed to mean..." Rio then walked over to the door and opened it before looking back at Kaizo. "What do you say?~ I am still a higher rank than you~" She gave him a wink and giggled again to show that she was only teasing him.

"Well you are more helpful than you think!" Kaizo finished his tea then waited patiently until Rio finished her paperwork, she then came over and cleared away the dishes then came back over to Kaizo and called his name which made him look up at her "Hu-" as he looked up he was kissed by Rio then she unsheathed her Zanpakuto's and asked if he wanted to do a bit of training "Hmm sure why not. It'd be interesting to see what else you've learned...may even get to show you what I can do!" Kaizo chuckled then stood up and followed Rio to the door but shook his head as she teased him about her still being the higher rank "Lead the way..."

"Well that's good then but quit your bowing! I don't care much for that crap! we are all like a family here so there is no need to bow to eachother! Well...anyway...Welcome to Squad 11! And don't call me Mr Sora! just call me Shiro...and well a start would be for me to show you around I guess...explain a few things for you. However I can't be asked to do that crap! You'll find your own way around and pick up things through everyday life. All I recommend for now is sticking close to me and watching for now and then we will try get you on a mission so you can start proving yourself and earning the respect of your Squad mates and then you will train to enhance your skill! However...tonight I feel like a little celebration! To celebrate the first Shinigami to join this Squad under my temporary command...hopefully it will turn into full command...but that's a bit in the future." Shiro pulled his Zanpakuto out of the ground then flicked it up onto his right shoulder then turned and walked into the training room "Follow me" Shiro watched as the Squad 11 Shinigami hadn't stopped even when he left the room...they let nothing distract them. Shiro waited until Niki got into the room before speaking "You see what they're doing? how nothing distracts them? their eyes fixed on their opponent? this is what we like to see in this Squad...Battle isn't just a case of swinging a fancy sword around it's a mindset...you have to be ready for everything and anything. That we will drum into you...but...I like to see what you can do first but that we shall do tomorrow when you go on a mission which I shall be on...I need to see what your capabilities are and how you fight, deal with situations, how fast you think and react and a great deal of other things...I hope you are prepared for that..." Shiro said as he looked on wards to the Squad 11 members however what he said was directed at Niki

Nishiki Kalemoru

Nishiki listened to Shiro and hung onto each and every word, nodding her head every now and then. He then began walking away, telling her to follow. "Yes Mr-I mean, Okidoki Shiro!" She caught up to him and followed behind him closely, looking out at the mass of fighters sparring each other. 'Wow, no wonder this Squad is known for their strength. 'Dem skills' Nishiki thought as she continued to watch and listen to Shiro. Despite knowing that Shiro couldn't see her, Nishiki nodded her head anyway, to show that she understood, mainly as a reflex. "I am prepared Shiro, I won't let you down, promise!" She lifted her right hand halfway and enthusiastically clenched her fist, a smirk stretched across her face. 'Finally, I will start making progress! Tomorrow I will show Shiro what I've got!' Her eyes then drifted back to the other members of Squad eleven, well more, her new Squad mates... Her new family.

Rio Okotaru Darishimo

A grin settled onto Rio's face. "Gladly~ Make sure to shut the door on your way-" She shunpo'ed, landing on the top of the gate to the barracks. "-out" She finished her sentence with a smirk before jumping down and running to the exit, much faster than she was before.

Rio continued to run, not even looking back to see if Kaizo was following, instead she just kept grinning, ready to show him how much she had improved. Rio then jumped, shunpo'ing from tree branch to tree branch as she made her way deeper and deeper into a random forest, skidding to a stop when she entered a plain stretch of grass. Standing still, she looked around and continued to smirk. "Hmm, seems like a good enough spot" She waited for Kaizo to find her, no doubt he probably already had.
