The Residential District is divided into four areas based based on the direction in which they are located. From rundown apartments to high end villas if you need a place to stay in Japan you can probably find a home in the Residential District. At the center of the district is a small park with a man made pond at the very center.
.:South End:. The south end is the home to some of the cheaper accommodations available. Simple apartments, each only a couple rooms. Basically it is the bare essentials in these places. Businessmen who live their jobs and have very little need of a fancy home often stay in the south end. Young couples and simply out of luck citizens call this place home.
.:East End:. The east end is a little more high class than the south. The apartments are nicer and better furnished. The rent is higher and the neighborhood is better. The east end is actually slightly larger than any of the other sections as it is the perfect set of complexes for the middle class to middle upper class. There are some nice cafes and restaurants close to the East End.
.:West End:. The west end is the next step up in class, these are separate houses in a country where land carries quite a heavy price. They vary from modern to traditional, western to eastern in design. It depends all on the buyers preference. Generally people of high class and wealth live here. It is the home of the Nouveau Riche.
.:North End:. The elite and the smallest area of them all the north end is home to mansions and great buildings. They are the homes of people with old money, long standing families whose names carry a great deal of power. Secretly it is home to many supernatural beings as their ability to live through generations compared with the wonders of interest compounded quarterly results in very deep pockets. The best of the best live here and to have even a small stake of land in the north side can be viewed as a sign of power.

Shinji Nakamura -Bount-
The explosion that had rocked the Residential District was impressive as far as Shinji Nakamura; the Bount with the Black Ghost, was concerned. It had wiped out a good few sectors of housing and the weeping and crying of those who had either lost their homes or loved ones was like music to his malign ears. The sorrow and anguish was like a feast before him, but more impressive than that, was the large crystal structure in the center of the destruction. It simply wreaked of power, a power that Shinji was curious about to be sure as it would likely offer him the promise of more strength he could utilize against the Soul Reapers and the weaklings of this world. It was his dream for domination, and if he was not agnostic in his belief of the divine, or lack there of, he would have sworn this was just a blessing from the gods themselves. Though this was likely something a little more impressive than some mystic mumbo jumbo, and it certainly felt that way too. The attempted cover up job that the black suited agents of Section Nine were up to seemed certainly well done, at least from the mundane perspective. They were claiming it was a meteor, and that it contained possible radiation. The humans in their sheep-like mentality seemed to fall for that belief alright, and it was just delightful at how simplistic their minds worked to accept what was obviously a lie. "That's just the trouble with humanity. It seeks comfort and normality, despite the fact that the only thing abnormal about their lives is their entire existence and the denial of what lies before them. It's kinda sad.", he said to himself as he leaned casually against a street lamp. Nobody was going to bother an elderly man, especially when it appeared like Shinji was just a person of the flock of gullible sheep that seemed to go with the government agency's orders and protocols. There was a benefit to being a Bount and that was his spirit energy appearing like that of a normal human, at least he could keep his cover for now as just a man in a hat.
The chaos of the traumatized humans provided the perfect backdrop for the scene that was before Shinji. The elderly Bount looked out among the rubble, the sight of Hollow and Souls was there to be seen for sure, and then there were Section Nine agents eliminating them with various spirit powers, he could have sworn he'd seen a Quincy among them, but he wasn't sure. It was all so interesting to the point were he wanted to burst out in laughter, but that would draw unwanted attention, so he simply contained his amusement at the horror and havok that had been unleashed. "Hell, I couldn't have done better than this without a detailed plan. Now this is the power I've been seeking.", he said with a twisted grin now. Though a question was echoing in the back of his mind. How long would it take to figure out exactly what these crystals are and what sort of threat to they possess? Did that voice he had heard mean to say that these were simply a test of the people of this world to adapt to a coming threat? It was curious, but this wasn't a puzzle he wanted to figure out. He'd let somebody else do all the problem solving, for now he was content to move slowly and subtly among the crowd of people moving this way and that by the orders of various agents as he moved to get a closer look at, what he considered, quite the gem.

Kumo Daikyu had been relaxing at his desk at central command when the order came to move out for a Class One emergency, with a high threat level. He was still a rookie in Section Nine's ranks, but he still had a job to do and that was to eliminate all chance of spiritual contamination to the general population as well as monitor spiritual activity on Earth. This had gone beyond the normal routine of just eliminating a Hollow or ordering lingering souls to find the nearest Soul Reaper and pass on, the destruction he was witness to upon emerging from the black suburban he had been passenger in was way beyond what would be classified as a normal event. This was cataclysmic in the sheer size of the destruction and it left him agape in a mixture of awe and horror. There were screaming people being corralled into response tents which had set up a good way away from the scene, but mixed with the sounds of ambulance sirens and police vehicles trying to contain the chaos, it was enough to make the rookie nauseated in the magnitude of the event. "So..This is a Class One?!", another of his comrades shouted as he dashed past and it was then Kumo realized that the crystal and it's impact were the least of their worries, there were Hollow gathering and appearing in larger numbers by the moment to gorge on the souls of the people that were slain. A knot formed in his stomach and there was no way to really come to terms with the sheer gravity other than to activate his Spirit Weapon and march forth as he had been trained, showing no fear as a Quincy.
Kumo's spirit weapon was aptly named The Dominator, or in the Japanese Language; Shihai-Sha. The Dominator was a spirit weapon that was shaped like a hand-gun, but when it fired, it opened up and revealed the glowing blue core of spirit energy collectors that then fired off powerful heilig pfil, or Holy Arrows. Kumo's weapon also had the unique ability to see the evil or goodness in a person, but his Quincy Blood always recognized a Soul Reaper, a Hollow, or a Bount as an evil force. There was no redemption for those types in the eyes of the Dominator, and elimination was the only answer for them. It was this power that had helped Kumo see through Gigai and identify Bount out of crowds of humans in the past. But as he looked down the barrel at the swarms of Hollow gathering he only saw tiny spots of blue and green being consumed in a sea of red. It was time to get to work and put the fear of the situation behind him. Sooner rather than later, as a raging monstrosity of a Hollow had come forth roaring at him as it had likely sensed his spirit pressure, being stronger than the puny plus souls it had been going after in it's eternal rancor. "Elimination..", Kumo said slowly as he took careful aim and waited to get a good shot at the head of the serpentine Hollow that was now winding it's way at him. It's white mask covered the cowardice of it's broken soul and the howl of it's Gemidos or Hollow Roar, was too much for some as they dropped and covered their ears, but not Kumo. He stood firm with strong resolve and pulled the trigger right as the mouth was inches from biting his hands off. The arrow burst through the hollow's head and out the back, blood and dissolving spirit particles falling around him as the tainted beast was destroyed. There were still a lot more in the sea of red to be taken care of, and so stopping now for a heroic speech was not in the order of business.
Kumo just walked onward, though the sight of Shinji caught him off guard, it was what appeared to be an elderly man slinking torward the crystal through the crowd, but he was too far off for him to deal with. The only reason that the elder subject had caught his attention was because that Shinji's aura was bright red, unlike most of the rest of the humans in the area.
It had been a pretty quiet day for the most part, and Sayla had dedicated her time to clean and prep her weapons in the case of an event. Suddenly the alarm in central command would begin to flare while a 'Class One' event warning was broadcasted over the whole building. It was the Mod-Soul's first class one event, but she had been on several lesser events previously. Ironic that a weapon from Soul Society had fallen into the skilled hands of Humans and now worked against her creators, and the other enemies of humanity. Still, Sayla would quickly run to the hanger and grab her personal motorcycle, "This is KP-X, Sayla, I am heading to the Class One event in the residential district of Karakura Town." She would mount the bike and proceed out at high speeds, weaving her bike through the emergency vehicles and the suburbans that Section 9 used to transport other members.
On the site, Sayla drives the motorcycle straight into the crater before leaping off the back of it, and into the air. "Activating weapons protocol 0879-23." She would announce as a blade appears in her hand while she come down on a Hollow going after a recently departed soul, "Please proceed to the nearest Soul Reaper, while I eliminate the Hollow infestation." Her blade would easily pierce the mask of the beast she had targeted. Her crimson eyes scanning over the battlefield til she spots her Quincy 'Co-Worker' Kumo Daikyu attacking some distant Hollows as well. She would leap from the her spot and spin through the air a short distance before come down near the male and materializing a handgun of her own. "So what do you think of our first Class One event? I am still trying to figure out the warning that voice spoke out." Sayla state coolly as she fires a few shots into several Hollows.
xxx Aizawa found himself wandering the street of Karakura when the lightning struck from above. Clapping his hands over his ears, Aizawa winced forcefully. It was still strange getting accustomed to his new life. Everything was much more standard than he was used to. Building himself back up to where he'd fallen from was no small feet. Opening his eyes and lifting them to survey the area where the lightning had struck, but before his eyes even saw the crystal, he felt it. Aizawa was aware of it's power, he'd seen quite a few of the stones in the past. Sneering angrily at the prism, he made his way towards the area of devastation. There already seemed to be Hollows gathering towards the crystal, just a small trickle for the time being, but Aizawa doubted that would last long. Aizawa casually summoned his bow, a traditional japanese long bow made of glowing white spiritual particles. Aizawa time and time again, restrung the bow firing shot after shot into the lesser Hollows. Each shot pierced it's target and dispersed the sinister forces gathering around the massive shard.
As he approached the area to try and see if he could escort any survivors out of the area, he heard speaking. Not panicked speaking, but rather calm and collected. Aizawa surveyed the area for any Nen signals and though there were still some Humans left in the area, their streams were weakening and fading fast, several blinking out while he was still surveying the area. Sighing deeply, Aizawa made his way towards the two of the signatures that weren't weakening yet, but he sensed several more, stronger than average humans, and even more on their way. Looking up at the crystal while he walked, he shook his head somberly. It was a great loss for Earth, but Aizawa had lived through many of these and it was second nature to him, but that didn't mean it broke his heart any less. These were the kinds of events he desperately wanted to protect Earth from. Things like this were why he was working to hard to become stronger. Earth needed a protector. And not the type of protection the pathetic Shinigami offered. Where were they now? With such a large gathering of Hollows in this area, surely they had enough reason to send someone. But, you couldn't rely on others, you had to do it the old fashioned way, with your own two hands and a heaping load of elbow grease. Brow still furrowed, he approached the two individuals. One of whom was far too high tech for his liking. He caught the a piece of the tail end of their exchange as he approached. He grimaced at the term Soul Reaper, but still approached. "What do you mean Class One?" Aizawa said, pretty sure he understood the implications of what that meant, but more so probing for information about who established the term 'Class One'. Aizawa wasn't one to bant many words, but he was genuinely trying to work past that in this day and age. "Aizawa Khalid. Quincy." he offered, thinking himself courteous by offering such a warm introduction. This was their first Class One, event, eh? And not long after he arrived. Somehow, Aizawa couldn't help but feel a little responsible. Perhaps it was he who attracted the destruction and mayhem. Perhaps some of Shinra had rubbed off on him. If that was the case, there was very little proof, for now there was nothing that he could do but try his best to rectify this mistake. "I doubt those stones are going to react to anything we can throw at it." Aizawa observed, thinking towards the major goal. Once all of the souls were safely out of the area, that would be the next problem. The monstrosity could not stay. Aizawa frankly didn't care who planted it. Likely some powerful Hollow or Shinigami who thought him or her self a god of some sort. There plenty of those back where he came from. Aizawa mentally scoffed before turning his eyes back towards the crystal and the few humanoid figures approaching it. "Any ideas?" he questioned. Reaching out to others for the first time in his life. He wasn't fond of many people and it wouldn't take much to dissuade him from going on his own, Aizawa was in a really complicated state, emotionally, at this time in his life. He never had felt this helpless since he was a child and it made him want to scream. He was physically shaking, which might be taken as fear, but it was out of frustration and anger and anxiety all wrapped into one complex overwhelming emotion. Aizawa used to pride himself on being stoic twenty four seven, but when something like this happens after you have all of your power stripped away along side everything you ever loved and cared about, you see where you stood on the emotional spectrum. Stilling his shaking by grabbing his wrist, he also stilled his mind by focusing on eliminating the Hollow threats one by one as they approached the shard, thinking offhandedly if he ought to fire some of the humanoid figures that were drawn to the shard. If you were drawn to it's power, it was likely Aizawa considered you a threat, though he had to admit, being this low did make it seem appetizing . . . but Aizawa restrained. The same appetite that he felt also restrained him from firing at anything except for the Hollows, as well. If it was tough for Him to avoid seeking it's power (or any power, at this point, really), he could understand others being drawn to it. Especially if they weren't aware of some of the possible adverse affects from dealing with Jokaisho Shards. One this size could hardly be called a shard, though . . . Aizawa only wondered if the adverse effects would be equally as large in comparison . . . If so, they needed to get to work fast. Like, now.

Shinji Nakamura -Bount-
Shinji Nakamura looked over his shoulder through his squinted eyes as he saw a few more noteworthy individuals show up and begin combating the Hollow, which largely ignored him for the most part. Was it all due to the fact that he was more like them or maybe his reiatsu didn't smell nearly as tasty as their own due to the fact as a Bount he did not appear any stronger than a normal human. It provided a good cover for him to walk away closer toward the crystal object that had been impacted into the ground. "Soon enough the world will see that I am..serious.", he muttered to himself as he was then confronted by a large Hollow that roared out in his face before it gagged and gurgled on it's own blood.
A clawed hand had emerged from Shinji's back attached to the rest of his black spectral doll that appeared to be made up of wicked, ebony bandages. Shwarzgeist had appeared of his own accord, as he had a habit of doing. "I...AM...SERIOUS!!", the doll roared out in it's spectral moan as it squeezed it's claws and ripped out the stunned Hollow's throat. The dissolving spirit particles of the body melting and flowing into Shinji's hand were they turned into a green-yellow substance that he simply poured into his mouth and down his throat, before shrugging it off. "Yuck..I forgot how bad those taste.", he muttered to himself before wiping his hands on his pants and then he nodded to his doll before looking over his shoulder and chuckling back at Kumo, Sayla, and Aizawa. "You slackers better hurry up or else you're never going to find out what 'god' has planned for us.", his voice called out in sort of a taunting mockery at them. Pathetic Quincy and a weapon of some sort, all pawns in a game, but when he unveiled his plans to take over Karakura, they'd just be pawns in the chess game. Eventually those three would also see just how serious he was about life and his existence.
There was little time to focus on them as another spider-like Hollow charged him and Shwarzgeist. Shinji and the Black Ghost reacted like the trained soldiers they both were. Shinji had plenty of combat experience from his tours in the Vietnam War and Operation Desert Storm to know how to get things done. With a head on assault like these careless Hollow were so want to perform, the elderly man and his doll split ways, before converging into a Multi-Point Offensive. A clawed hand and a combat knife impacting with the Hollow's masked visage, one from the left and the other from the right. This was all paired with the fact that Shinji and his doll seemed to move through the shadows and at speeds equivalent to a Flash Step, and this is how they caught the slightly larger Hollow off guard, ending it before it had time to regenerate as it too was consumed. "Video-games taught me to eat food laying on the ground, they just never said that power-ups tasted nasty.", He remarked as he finished his grim soul meal and prepared to fight anything else that decided they would try to make prey out of one of the biggest predators there. "I..am..Serious..", his doll moaned out again in the spectral echo of it's master's prior words. "Yes, yes, of course you are.", Shinji said patronizingly to the black ghost doll. "Of course you are..."

Kumo Daikyu looked over to Sayla and then to Aizawa who introduced himself as a Quincy. From his looks, he didn't appear to come from any of the Echt, or pure blood families. He'd probably have met him by now if he had been, but there wasn't a time to discuss lineage and were they stood as far as working with or against the Shinigami. Souls were running and Hollow were consuming them, and it was Section Nine's job to eliminate the abnormal spiritual presence in the realm. "Class One's are the worst. It's an invasion level event, and I'd say that it fits the bill. I wouldn't worry about cryptic messages, Elimination of the Hollow and the defense of the plus souls is a key concern.", the raven haired operative said simply to the Modified Soul. He had not much experience with Sayla and what she was exactly, but he knew she had a job to do and pointing that out was his own mode of operation. "I know it isn't required of you, Aizawa-san, but if you would lend your skill? It seems we've got some Hollow to eliminate since the Soul Society hasn't dispatched their own to deal with this issue.", He asked in a humble request before he turned his attention to the voice that called to their group and it's source. The elderly man was clearly insane to be wading into the sea and storm of Hollow that were massing even more and more around the crystal.
His suspicions that had been raised about Shinji by the sight of his gun, the Dominator, had only been confirmed as he watched the man manifest a Doll and tear apart, not one, but working in tandem with it to take out two Hollow and consume their essence. That man was one of the Bounto, the clan of spiritual vampires. The scum was no better than the Hollow he feasted on, but it didn't really matter as the higher priority threat was the Hollow and the plus souls they were needing to defend in the process as the more pluses that got devoured and consumed in the end would only wind up creating more Hollow for them to have to destroy. There were no Shinigami present, so elimination and destruction of the souls was all that could be done or helped to be done in this instance. It was regrettable, but a plague had been unleashed on the world and it was the duty of Section Nine and any spiritual mortal in the area to try and contain, and eventually eliminate the blight that had been dropped on the innocent.
Kumo then left Aizawa and Sayla as he dashed into the Hollow mass toward the crystal, as he couldn't just let Shinji get there and figure something out without Section Nine being the organization to get the credit for saving the spiritual sanctity of the earth populace. He would shoot himself with a destructive heilig pfil before he ever let a Bount become a 'hero' to the people of the mortal plane.

The Mod-Soul hadn't stopped gunning down the varies kinds of Hollows that were flooding the area, even saving a few of the Plus Souls from being devoured at the last moment. A grin would creep across her face as her team mate solely stated that this indeed fitted an invasion level event, though she figured that the explanation was less for her, and more for the Quincy that had joined the fray and stopped along side them. Her crimson eyes fall on the old man that had killed two Hollows with a combat knife before devouring the remnants of their souls, causing a sigh to leave her lips. "Agents a Bounto is on the field. Do not engage, unless he starts to turn on us, or tries to eat one of the Plus Souls in the area. I have marked him as a Code Orange threat, so please continue to deal with the Code Red til threatened." Sayla would give a slight head bow to the Quincy that had joined them, "Sorry for the lack pleasantries. I am Sayla Marz, KP-X. I am sorry that our meeting is on the battlefield. Please lead us the assistance of your special powers." She would discard the firearm, causing it to dematerialize as her sword returned to her hand, and she leap back into the fray of battle with the various Hollows that where being attracted towards the crystalline stone, and the fresh assortment of Plus Souls caused by the impact.
The Mod-Soul would elegantly bob and weave through the ranks of beasts while effortlessly slicing her way through their masks, or holes, to eliminate them. Causal conversation was never her strong suite, but on the battlefield...the blue haired woman was like a Goddess due to her programing and training in combat versus spiritual entities that threatened the stability of human life. A large Hollow would leap before her and aim to bring its large, clawed hands down on the slender framed machine, only for her to move behind it in the blink of an eye and bisect the beast through the hole where a heart should be. she holds up her free hand and once more a gun materializes, making her swirling dance of death that more deadly as she fires off shots to enemies that her sword blade just doesn't reach. For some, this was the first time seeing her fight.

xxx Aizawa felt taught to the point of nearly snapping. This event needed resolving and Aizawa was used to handling things in a swift and powerful way. If a threat popped up, Aizawa had an answer, especially if it dealt with negative spiritual energy. His reishi flared and his bow grew just a little larger. His mind drifted to the empty Yujinchou at his waist and the answers that used to lie within to this crystalline structure. If there were anyone in the area that was of any significant power, they likely would've shown up by now, so there didn't seem to be any hope in that department. They would have to solve this problem on their own, and unfortunately . . . there didn't seem to be much hope in that department, either. But there was at least some. He would have to work together with these individuals, whoever they belonged to and get this situation under control. At least he felt fairly confident that they had their intentions in the right place. He had his doubts about the Bount, however.
Letting a stray arrow fly in that direction, he planted one firmly in the soil near Shinji, briefly shooting a glance in his direction for him to catch sight of. "Oops." was the general feeling communicated by his glance, albeit obviously insincere. The look of that Doll was ominous, but thus far he'd only offered a bit of assistance, but Aizawa wasn't quite fond of the shade of his Nen. Perhaps it was just the obscured power level, as his saturation was approximately that of a normal human, but then again perhaps it was all in his head. With his current mental state that was a thoroughly viable possibility. "I'd recommend being cautious around that" he warned Kumo as he approached Shinji, though he meant the crystal and not the man. The thought had occurred to Aizawa that these individuals might not have had experience with such stones. "It has the signature of a Jokaisho Stone, but I can't seem to make myself believe that that is what it is entirely. Shards can have nasty and often adverse effects on spiritual beings. One this size . . . " he trailed off, genuinely getting lost in his own thoughts, the necessity of keeping Hollows away from it becoming solidly set in his mind. "Sayla! I'm going to round up as many Hollows as I can, please take care of any stragglers that approach the stone. It's vital we keep them at bay at all costs." he yelled over the raucous battlefield, eyeing the stone with contempt. "Is there any way we can quarantine the crystal, if we can't remove it?" he would then ask. He was desperate for anything right now. Without the right tools at your belt, you really had to get creative with how you handled situations of this magnitude. "If we can't remove or destroy this thing . . . and I'd maybe not recommend attempting to full out destroy it at this point . . . " he spoke, a stray thought popping into his head before he continued. " . . . But, if we can keep a tight quarantine around the crystal that will keep threats from becoming bigger threats with the benefit of drawing them close enough to eradicate. This should prevent them from growing frustrated before we can get to them and risking them venting that frustration on those around them." he would finish yelling desperately to Sayla as he tactfully controlled where his arrows were, firing stream after stream of arrows, Hollows moving to avoid them and gathering in a central location. Though his goal was to round up the Hollows and disperse of them efficiently, he also, obviously, didn't try to avoid hitting any stray Hollows that may get in the way of his path. The less Hollows in the area, the better. As he gathered the group of Hollows in tightly, he charged a more powerful arrow and fired a Scatter Shot in that vicinity, taking care of all but a couple of lucky Hollows who likely didn't feel very lucky after Aizawa followed up the barrage with a precisely fired Double Shot. The Mod Soul, if Aizawa wasn't off his mark (deduced from the altered body and nen signature), seemed capable of handling herself in battle, but he was afraid that neither she nor the other Quincy (Quincies were always easy to spot, to Aizawa) would be able to carry out the quarantine plan. Things were definitely harder and more frustrating when you didn't have the correct tools. Aizawa grunted to himself, as he took a moment to catch a breath. He definitely wasn't used to fighting this intensely with this . . . 'new' body. Aizawa felt himself gritting his teeth again . . . he really had to kick that newly developed habit before he didn't have any teeth left.
As he let his attention drift and attempted to gain a moments rest, he lost focus and a Hollow managed to make it's way behind him, attempting to take a nice big chunk of Quincy out of him for a mid afternoon snack. Aizawa flying Screen Stepped forward before whipping around, spinning on the edge of his heels. The Hollow began forming a Cero in this time and fired it just as Aizawa drew his bow. He fathered enough energy for an arrow and converted it to an anti spiritual arrow into his bow and fired it at the Hollow before him, then reloading with a regular spiritual arrow and firing it into the beast that just attempted to take his life and came frightfully close to succeeding. Letting out a fearful roar, Aizawa couldn't stop himself from shaking. He hated every part of this, especially the fact that the calm that once came so naturally to him was now so very illusive. He gathered barely enough energy to form an Anti Spiritual Arrow and then fired it at the Stone before them, testing to see what reaction it would have to an attack. Especially an anti spirit one.

Jokaisho Pillar
Unlike other stones that had sprinkled onto the earth in day's gone past, this was from another dimension entirely and was a complete fusion of the corporeal and the spiritual, making it seemingly immune to damage, though the arrow did impact weakly against what seemed like a sort of shield, weakening it slightly if only for a moment. The Hollow around it all seemed to moan in anger, but their attention returned to the plus souls as the energy reestablished its aura and the massive pillar of spiritual pollution stood tall once more in it's mystical and supernatural glory. It seemed like something was powering the cystal structure, but what? To find out, the group would likely need to deal with the Hollow threat that surged like a sea before them, and the tsunami of Hollow energy seemed to grow more ravenous the more the crystal was attacked, as if responding to it's 'pain'.
Section Nine operatives appeared in riot gear and motioned forth an order, "Do not attack the crystal, it seems to drive the Hollow crazy, and we don't need the situation getting worse! Eliminate as many Hollow as possible and let's try to keep the situation under control.", a man said to those near Kumo, Sayla, and Aizawa. "And whatever happens, if that Bount tries to control that crystal, shoot to kill, for now, let him assist in the eradication of the Holl- aggg!!!.", he was cut off as a larger scorpion-like Hollow lunged forth out of the fire-fight that was growing, and skewered the agent on it's stinger tail, flailing him around on the end like a malign kabob, and roaring menacingly at Kumo, Sayla and Aizawa, as if they were next to join the corpse on the end of it's tail, and the skewering edge would flash at Aizawa since he had been the closest one in proximity to the, now deceased, Section Nine agent.
Attack: Skewering Sting! Effect: Hollow Power: Gillian: - +10 Speed and +5 Attack power sting from the tail. Those hit with less strength than stinger hollow's are impaled on it's edge and are unable to move for two posts or until damaged; On the next post after being impaled, they take a hit from a normal powered sting if they remained bound, and are cast to the side.
As the elderly bount with his black ghost doll waded into the storm of Hollow, they found the resistance at a close range was increasingly difficult to progress. Then it was shown that by Aizawa's arrow which flew fast and hard at the crystal, that the Quincy seemed to possess a dangerous ability to use his own reishi to shatter spirit energy, a trait that Shinji had seen others use in the past, but this was a refreshingly new sight to him as he was convinced that such a method of dealing with spiritual attacks had long since died to the ages. This was a brand new threat he would need to deal with for sure as it would likely bring him to need to actually confront and fight Aizawa in the future, especially if he were going to be the meddling type who tried to destroy the things that interested him, such as this massive source of power. "Dang, it's like they don't care to find out what this thing can really do?", he chuckled as he watched with playful interest as the anti-spiritual projectile slammed into the crystal force-field and seemed to drain it momentarily, but in one specific spot before everything seemed to resume it's normal course.
The apearance of the large stinger Hollow that was confronting the three behind him didn't seem to bother Shinji in the slightest, and he shrugged as he continued onward, setting his sights on a smaller ant-like Hollow, ironic as it would seem, that had a plus soul woman pinned down to the ground. The elderly man threw his combat knife at the beast and chuckled darkly as it sunk into the white mask of the beast before he shadow stepped and gripped the handle of the blade to pull it free, but his eyes only widened slightly as it had stuck to the mask due to the regeneration of the Hollow just seeming to fuse the blade into the injury that was healing over. "Kuso! hey, Ghost...lend me a hand will YAAAA!?", he shouted as the beast thrashed and slung him away, causing him to lose his grip on the blade, but he had managed to distract it from the plus soul which scrambled to her feet and started to limp away from the foul mouthed elderly soldier and his utterly creepy partner, which lunged between Shinji and the Hollow just as the jaws were going to bite into his master. The doll's clawed hands gripped the "upper" and "lower" jaws, holding them open momentarily before it pushed itself to rip open the hinge and break the Hollow's jaw for the moment, though the injury had already started to regenerate as the mandible-like mask started to fuse and reform with a sickening crackle like bones resetting. "I AM SERIOUS!!!", the doll roared out in it's spectral moan, seeming to have gone completely berserk at the ant-like beast for trying to take a bite out of his master.
Shinji got to his feet while his doll grappled with the Hollow that apparently had some strength and talent in spirit particle reformation. Come to think of it, this area around the Jokaisho Pillar was rich with reishi, it seemed like the perfect place to catch a meal and to absorb ambient spirit particles that were spreading their toxicity in the air. A normal human exposed to this would likely have been forcefully awakened spiritually, if not killed out-right due to a weak spiritual talent. It was clearly a threat and Aizawa was right about needing to contain it, but right now, Shinji had bigger fish to fry, and this one had his favorite knife lodged in it's skull and wasn't being nice and giving his toy back.

Kumo Daikyu -Quincy-
Aizawa's unique arrow that seemed to work on the same principles of the Seele Schneider seemed to cut into the crystal's spirit energy for a moment, from Kumo's perspective and this impressed the fellow Quincy visibly, until the comrade in arms of Section Nine showed up and provided them with an important revelation about the Jokaisho Pillar, and if Aizawa was right, that this thing could have effects on spirit beings; they were looking at, arguably, the worst threat since the Soul Society came forth and nearly exterminated the Quincy and then some years later, the Bount as well. This world was pretty much doomed to the spiritual world mingling in it, and it was up to Section Nine operatives like Kumo and Sayla to help keep it in check, but an event like this was growing out of control. The solution was right before them, they would just need to keep eliminating the Hollow, which for the most part seemed to be weaker varieties, as if they were freshly created, but then trouble started and it was something that could not be denied.
-Crunch-
The sudden impaling and skewering of his fellow agent left Kumo wide eyed in shock. His mouth agape as he watched the body of the SWAT unit being flung about carelessly on the tip of the stinger felt like it was in slow motion, a sight to horrific and unreal to possibly believe. His hands shook and it was a Hollow well beyond any of the power he had ever encountered. Was this truly what awaited beyond the gate of a Gargantua in Hueco Mundo's desolate wastes?! It was impressive and it made him shiver in his soul, but that was soon replaced by anger, all fear washed away by a desire for revenge that seemed to kick in innately in his Quincy blood. "We gotta kill this son of a b***h! Nobody treats humans like that, especially not some scummy Hollow!", Kumo shouted in anger as he lifted his Dominator to fire a shot from the spirit weapon that seemed to pack a whallop, but the Hollow was moving too fast for him to keep up with as he barely saw the tail lashing out at Aizawa, preparing to skewer him just the same as the Section Nine operative who had just been beside them. Still, he had to try, and with the Hollow distracted, he tried to give Aizawa an opening as the gun let off a loud 'crack!' and the heilig pfil, or holy arrow, flew forth from the weapon with all the destructive intent for revenge bent on erasing this big beast from the face of the planet. It was his honor as a Quincy that now rode on the line and if he could stand, even in the face of something so massive.
He wouldn't have dared do this if he wasn't sure in the skills of his allies, though he knew that Shinji wasn't going to help them, and it made the Bounto's presence even more loathsome, even if he was assisting the plus souls and devouring the Hollow. It didn't make that spiritual parasite any less of a plague on the cycle than the Hollow themselves. There was no justification for monsters, even if they killed other monsters. They would all be slain in the end, and that was his solemn promise to himself, though he would honor the directive to allow Shinji to continue to operate, as long as he continued to be a help and not a hindrance.

Kumo's shots are too slow; But just trying to RP as I would regardless of stats. Hopefully so Aizawa can make use of it in his next post.
Despite being vastly outnumbered with very few resources and lesser reinforcements, this relative unknown Quincy had asked her to pick off the stragglers as he herded and corralled a wave of Hollow via his own arrows. It was an impressive technique, and one that the Mod-Soul could clearly see through to dodge the shots as well. Her blade and pistol being used to pick off the monsters that either strayed too far from the group are carelessly entered a range that would make corralling the beasts harder. Once having a good mass of them grouped up, Aizawa would fire off a volley of arrows into them, before picking off the survivors with separate shots. "That is an effective strategy." Sayla would voice before the Quincy would fire a special arrow into the large stone, which was the center of this event. As the arrow struck its target, the Mod-Soul as well as the Hollow seemingly felt the effect as a wave of energy nearly brought her to the knees. Even before the SWAT armored Section Nine members arrived, the Mod-Soul knew that the stone should have probably not be attacked again. All the Hollows in the area were roaring out as if they felt the pain of the stone, temporarily, losing a fraction of its power, and it seemed that it had effected her as well. She would finally shake the uneasy feeling off as a Section Nine officer in SWAT gear runs up to the small group and proceeds to give out orders to them. One of which was to watch the Bounto, and to not allow it control of the stone, but to not engage him less he proved a threat. The other was to not attack the crystal again as to not to stir up the hornet's nest of beasts. Before the man was finished giving his orders a large, scorpion-like Hollow would impale him with its large stinger and swing him around like a rag doll on the tip of its tail.
The man's blood would have splattered a bit on Sayla's clothes as a strange feeling swelled within her very core. It wasn't something her body produced but something much deeper within that made her a prisoner within her own body for the time being. Luckily for her though, the beast would turn its attention to the Quincy, Aizawa instead of her. She wondered if the beast was summoned due to the power flux within the stone pillar, or was it one of the Hollow here already given power by it. There was no clear answer as either could have been correct, and soon she was centered enough to move once more. Those crimson eyes flashed as her Anti-Spirit Combat System reactivates, "Gillian Class or above." Sayla would speak out as her sword and pistol both dematerialize in her hands. The Mod-Soul would reach up with her right hand and place her index and middle fingers to her right ear. "Emergency Code: 102867-9. Requesting use of the ES Dinah beyond testing zone and parameters." She would quickly get to her motorcycle and mount up on it. Those crimson eyes fall on Kumo, "Keep your eyes on the Bounto, while taking care of this section." she would state in a matter-of-fact tone as she revs up her bike and begins her way towards the scorpion Hollow.

xxx Aizawa noticed he was gritting his teeth again as he watched the drastically weakened arrow fly through the air. He really had pumped the barest amounts of energy into the arrow. Enough to charge it and fire it and that was practically it. Aizawa wasn't aiming to destroy the crystal, but test it. He forced his teeth to stop grinding against each other and tounged the sore teeth before biting down on his tongue. He really had to break himself of that habit, or else he'd have no teeth left. The arrow hit it's mark, and as Aizawa expected, the crystal had a barrier of sorts. The response from the Hollows was honestly a bit unexpected, however. Going over the details in his mind, he tried to process the information he'd just gained. Before he could immerse himself in his thoughts, another one of what Aizawa assumed was the same group as the other two. The Quincy groaned mentally at being demeaned. Obviously he wasn't going to attack it again, his first shot, although drastically weakened did practically 0. Even fully charged, Aizawa knew he wouldn't be able to obliterate the crystal completely. The operative was right. They had a task in front of them in dealing with the Hollow. No matter how much he may dislike these people, or all people right now, Aizawa knew he couldn't let his feelings control him like that. "Understo--" Aizawa began before the man was impaled on the tail of the rather ugly Hollow. "Such grotesque creatures." Aizawa's mind complained as he deftly avoided the Hollow's strike, it's aim being altered by the distraction that was Kumo's shot. As Aizawa reached the height of his jump, well above the Hollow's head (and more importantly the reach of his scorpion like tail), he summoned his bow and fired two shot off. One through the head and one through the leg. They were fired in so close proximity to each other that as they flew, it was hard to tell with was fired first. The only indicator was the direction that Aizawa's arrow was pointed. He hoped the one aimed at the head would kill, but if it didn't, it would have to be avoided or deflected in some way, leaving the other shot not being a focus as it wasn't aimed at a vital area. If this was an opponent other than a wild minded Hollow, Aizawa would have not expected a simple strategy like this to work. If he could at least injure the Hollow, he could deal with it. Hinder it's movements or something. This Hollow seemed weak enough to take out in one shot, but you could never been too sure. Somehow managing to keep his focus on the Hollow before him and the battlefield as a whole, Aizawa remained cautious of other Hollows approaching. He would have to deal with this opponent quickly. He began charging another Spirit Arrow and would fire it as soon as the creature moved. He couldn't let anyone else die here today. And he couldn't let anyone get close to that crystal. "If I can't have it, then nobody can." came a voice from his head. The stray thought shocked Aizawa and would have shook him to the core if he wasn't in the void of battle, though he felt the emotion ruffle across the outer surface threatening to pop the void and overwhelm him. Where did that thought come from? They really had to deal with this threat soon, and fast. But to be able to even think straight about how to remedy this problem, he first had to be able to disengage in battle with all of these Hollow. Groaning to himself, he set his mind back to the task at hand. Kill the Hollow. Keep others away from the crystal. (Though with a nasty glance at anyone venturing too close to it.) Destroy the crystal . . . Yes. Destroy it. Remove it. Get it away. Aizawa could still feel it's tempting power pulsing through out the area, but he was stronger than these creatures. He simply had to be.
Taking a moment to bring himself back to reality and away from very tempting but very dangerous stray thoughts, Aizawa managed a moment's time to address those that we actually trying to do something about the threat here. Karakura always got the short end of this stick, but it was nice to see that on this side there were at least some that were trying to help out and keep things regulated and under control. "Thanks for the backup. I'd undoubtedly be dead right now if it wasn't for you two . . . . " Aizawa complimented for what felt like the first time in his life, though that wasn't true. He really had to get accustomed to socialization.

The large Hollow roared out as it's stinger was evaded and Kumo's shot caused it to take a sonido powered back step. Aizawa was quick! Really quick, as far as the lumbering beast was concerned. It's predatory nature and instinct caused it to try to keep up with the Quincy, and it managed to see the first shot, but not the second as it lifted an arm up and a yellow negacion field formed over it's appendage like a curved tower shield. 'Negacion Escudo de la Arco' (Negacion Shield of the Arc), was all it thought of as it manipulated the normally impenetrable force into a malleable defense. Though this was not enough to protect it from the second attack which slammed through the shield and through it's torso causing an intense amount of pain and agony. The destructive arrow seemed to open up the Hollow to a whole new sensation of pain, unlike any other it had felt in it's life. A quincy's arrows had a particular sting, unlike that of the purifying edge of a Soul Reaper's zanpakuto. This burned and flamed it's skull to the point that it let out an unearthly howl unlike that of a normal Gemido, that had the power to slow down those in the vicinity. It was clear now that it was going to try to make Aizawa, Kumo, and Sayla all pay for their crime of trying to defy it a proper soul feast as it was simply acting in it's drive to evolve on into an Adjuchas, though it would not live to see that day as despite it's every desperate act to cling to life, it disintegrated and was destroyed quite effectively.
Effect: Soul Aching Gemido Effect: Hollow Power Base: 1 By letting out a terrifying roar, those within fifty feet of this beast find their very will-power shaken by the immense power of the Scorpion Hollow, reducing their Speed by 5 for 2 posts, though this can be avoided if they are simply demonstrating of more physical pressence than it with a STR vs STR comparison]
Defense: Negacion Escudo de la Arco Custom [50] The hollow can summon forth an arc based shield of yellow energy to block off attacks and reduce the impact if they manage to punch through, boosting it's defense by +10 for one post.
