Unmei bows politely and agrees to go to the clan's doctor, who also happens to be one of the family heads. "Come on, Ambrose. Let's finish the patrol and go see Lord Yorokobi. He's a top notch doctor and the one I serve under most directly." He pauses and picks up a rock as they walk to the next village. "Sometimes I wish that I could be as smart as he is. For now, I am doing a job that I don't know how to do, patrolling for who knows what, and I still barely read." He chucks the stone into the shrubs and a boar comes tearing out at them. "Oops."

Ambrose frowns at the monk the shrugs and follows his friend out of the village. "Sure" he says as they walk. "All I can really say about that is study and learn. the more you learn the smarter you get. Besides you are smart you may not know much about certain things. But their are things you know that I do not. Who knows you may even know things that this Yorokobi does not." Ambrose wondered how to get Unmei to stop being so hard on himself. He watches as Unmei throws his rock into the shrubs. "Oh nice sh..." Ambrose then quickly jumps to the side as a boar charges at them. "Oh yummy" he says "Carriage of thunder, gap of a spinning wheel, together with light, divided into six. Bakudou #61 Six Staves of Blinding Light!" Once the boar is captured Ambrose looks at Unmei. "Pork chops, BBQ, Bacon, and other goodies. this huge boar could feed a small village for weeks well days maybe." Ambrose turns back to the boar and draws his zanpakuto them kills the overgrown pig. "Unmei help me drag this off of the path. Where we can butcher it and maybe cook it." Ambrose says grinning as he waits for Unmei's help.
Umei's eyes widen at the charging boar. "Damn it." He draws his own zanpakutou, which is easily eight feet long, and swings it down through the skull of the beast as Ambrose also lands a killing blow. "Sure, all of that sounds good. Time to get in my belly, piggy~" he says cheerfully. He loves pork when he can get any. "Ever try basashi sashimi?" He helps him drag the pig into the grass.

"Yes a few weeks ago it was good." Ambrose says as they drag the boar into the grass. Ambrose then sets about butchering the piggy as Unmei called it. Once the boar is prepared he starts preparing to cook the meat then realizes that he had forgotten a lighter or matches. "Hey you have any matches or anything to light a fire?" He asks as hopes the rest of this patrol will be uneventful. Or at least something fun like those kids that pestered them earlier.
"Let's get some basashi next payday. There's quite a few different dishes of it that I'd like to try. Lord Yorokobi does not keep a ton of meat around. 'Just enough to be healthy, and not enough to make ourselves sick' as he puts it. Whatever that means, but he's the doctor and I am just the ignorant backwater hick. Haha! Not that he calls me that. He's strict, but he's not cruel. He's paying tutors to educate me at least. But, it has only been two weeks." He digs through his kit and pulls out a lighter and a bit of wool. "Alright, that should start the fire. As for the patrol, it normally has little going for it than talking to other people. I do not have to go too deep in. Never further in than the fifth district, which is where my clan's manor is located. I have a feeling that strings were pulled to keep me out of the deeper districts. There's others who pick up where I leave off and we will meet them at the check in station probably tomorrow night, but possibly earlier depending on how long it takes us to get to fifth. We are currently just approaching the third district. We would have been already walking in right now if it wasn't for what happened. I did not have the heart to tell the Monk that it was going to be quite a while."

Ambrose smirks at Unmei "Why wait we have plenty of pig and can trade for some. Or I can buy some at the market." It was not long before the two had the boar cooking. He listens to Unmei talk while watching the meat cook. "Well hopefully the rest of your patrol goes quietly." He comments without looking up from his task. But smirks after a second thinking it was funny that Unmei gets a companion and his patrol goes out of whack.
Unmei smirks. "I was hoping to wait until we get to Nakamura in fifth district. There's a lot of places we can shop there and a few places will happily buy some meat off of us. Though we should at least preserve some of this first."
XXXVanargand sniffed the air, her mouth open to the breeze. There more here than the typical fallen soul of Valhalla. There was Aesir here. "I smell god blood." She growled beneath her breath. Soon she was off, following the spiritual signatures of the shinigami in the area. Thump! She landed heavily on a building, the force of the impact shaking the structure. "Found you." Rumbled from her throat as she looked down at two shinigami, cooking meat between themselves.
She pounced, aiming a swing of her sword at one of the shinigami's necks; She was hoping to end this in one blow. It had been so long since she had tasted the ichor of the gods that she was impatient. There would be no suffering, hopefully. Just death, then she could devour. Regardless of whether or not the swing hit; The arc would carve a deep gouge into the surrounding area, bisecting a nearby villager, and toppling another house.
Sasori catches up to the other hollow just in time to see her slash at the Shinigami sitting on the ground. He watches as the Shinigami, the ground, a nearby villager, and the house nearby are sliced in half. Sasori grins at the display of strength, thinking this hollow could end up quite strong. He will have to keep an eye on her, she might make a good ally in the future. He sets off to feed some on his own, leaving the Shinigami to her. He rips his way through some running villagers, feeling bored that no Shinigami had shown up to the destruction being caused. Merely a couple who were out here eating it appears. Where were the fighters? Where were the warriors?

XXXVanargand ripped into the shinigami, devouring their heart. The organ popped within her jaws, the flesh thick and rubbery. The heart was the container for one's strength; Consuming another's heart, partaking of a beast's bosom, imparted their strength upon the devourer. The feeling was euphoric to her. These warriors were of another caliber, far above the typical rabble she had ripped into thus far. The taste was exquisite and the smell was intoxicating. IT was not just the scent of copper and iron, there was a hint of power; A slightly sweet aroma.
When the carcass was naught but stained bones and dripping viscera, Vanargand moved to follow Garmr, the shaggy hound with the barbed tail. She took her time, picking off stragglers and tearing down the small buildings that littered this decrepit burg. The stench that crept up from the gutters was nauseating, clearly this was where the paupers made there homes; Kept outside the gates to separate them from the more refined warriors. She couldn't wait to break down those gates and go inside. For now, she needed to sup herself on the banquet in front of her. She could feel them from here, there was a whole longhouse worth of powerful vikingrs beyond the walls. She was not prepared to take them all on.
Vanargand hung several cowards from their heels, looping rope through the tendon. They had attempted to run, abandoning their families, instead of fighting to protect them. Regardless of if they had died, such an ignoble act would not go unpunished. Their wails filled the air, perhaps travelling all the way to the inner realm, as she killed them like pigs. "..Run like curs, die like animals." She growled in the ear of the last, consuming their souls; She devoured everything, their essence falling into the bottomless pit of her gullet.
The wolf began marking herself with each noble kill, every time someone stood and fought. Every time someone died a warrior's death, she would mark herself; She drew a sigil on her flesh. Such was to honor those that died valiantly and would be remembered for eternity. They might consider her a monster. Many would. But she was not without honor. Her war paint became the ash and the soot, the blood and the dirt, that mottled her hide. "Are there no champions?" She asked, looking in Sasori's direction as she bound closer.
Eli hurries to keep up with the two wolves but they manage to cause some damage before he can catch back up. That was one of the drawbacks to be had following much stronger beings. He immediately attacks the first spirit he finds and by accident manages to kill it in one blow. The lad squawks surprised and greedily devours his first ever kill. Having an idea for it he attacks another spirit and stabs it with his blade then dances like the child he is. "Want some?" He offers the best part or what he thinks is the best part to the stronger hollows. He then hurries to follow Vanargand once more from several yards behind he sees a Shinigami though does not know what the spirit is he sees it about to attack and throws a rock at it. "Behind you, There is an attacker behind you." He yells to his companion as he runs to catch up. "Grr." he says once close enough and swings his sword at the Shinigami that had been about to attack the others. The Shinigami had started to retreat when he heard the younger hollow yell. Soon the two are fighting trying to kill each other. The Shinigami must have been a weak one for he did not immediately kill Eli. Though the Shinigami was to strong for Eli to kill quickly he gave it his best shot. "KOKO!" He yells calling his sister for help. Though he would gladly except it from the other two if they chose to.

XXX"How disappointing. I was hoping the party wouldn't start without me." The young woman would state in an indifferent tone after exiting the portal. There were not many already present, a total of three of the hollow kin. Vanessa continued walking in a path to the three she found. If the members of her previous company followed along that was great, but if they didn't she still had a job to do. Luckily they seemed to be relatively close to one another. A young woman was doing a majority of the destruction, a child was gathering whatever leftovers he could, and the third one was Okami? With little obvious effort she would blast one of her signature sigilo cero at a nearby building. The invisible blast would rip through the building, and crushing whomever sought shelter within its walls. Red-orange eyes locked onto Okami at first before she spoke in a clear snarky tone. "Oh it seems you are not cowering today. What a surprise." Her attention turned to the one whom seemed to be dealing a majority of the damage. She would ask if there were no champions to defend the shinigami home. It was predictable that very little resistance had arrived to stop the slaughter. It was almost as if the gears were moving exactly the way they were intended to. A soft laugh would escape her lips, it seemed genuine. "A champion among the shinigami? As if such a thing exists."

Sinking to the bottom, burning down in the abyss Sinking within a blink of light under the freezing waters surface Collapse, break way, sink completely To the depths of the darkness, together with your friends!
◆ Despite all the deafening screams for mercy and blatant sounds of destruction, the Hollow would find herself somehow standing the midst of the chaos. It had been an interesting rabbit hole she had found herself going down. She had been back at Hueco Mundo not too long ago when she noticed all the rips in time and space. Ever since she had undergone a sudden metamorphosis, not only had her powers exponentially grown, but she had noticed she had become a lot more aggressive. The Hollows in Hueco Mundo she once was wary of seemed like nothing more than pitiful small dogs, all bark and no bite, to which she had torn through like the animals they were. Surprising to her, she had started to become bored of the status quo and was pondering ways to ease her boredom when the Garganta portals started appearing. Some sort of mass summoning? She would watch as other Hollows begin following through the gate. She would admit to being curious about what lied on the other side of the vortexes. While skeptical about jumping straight into the unknown, the thought of remaining stagnant as she was a more horrifying thought to the Vasto Lorde. A wide smirk would cross the Hollow’s face as she thought of possibilities of what lurked on the other side, her expression being reflexed on her two tails as the also grinned similarly. There would be no further convincing needed as Vitani soon found herself crossing the gap.
The scent of souls and blood would be the first thing she pick up. She would take a cautious glance upon arriving, assessing the location of where she had been blindly transported. She recognized the area as one of places where the Soul Reapers often lurked around. Vitani herself had never came this close to the Rukongai before, it too much of risk on her life with all the Shinigami on patrol. But it seemed like that wouldn’t be an issue today. Vitani had never seen this kind of destruction before, the Hollows were doing rampant with their wake of destruction, and the more she watched, the worse it became. She would bear witness as a hollow woman would tear the beating heart out of a Shinigami and devour it on the spot. This type of carnage was something she expect back in Hueco Mundo but to see it happen in the Soul Society seemed surreal. There would be something from all the bloodshed and destruction that would make Vitani grin from earlier make a reappear.
Wouldn’t it be just her luck at this time her attention would shift to face two figures rushing towards her. Soul reapers from the looks of their black uniforms and how the drew their blades while approaching. Well, seeing if everyone else was joining in the festivities, there was no reason Vitani herself couldn’t get involved either. Her blue eyes would trace the two as they suddenly split off in opposite directions. No doubt they were trying to catch her on each side. Vitani would crouch into a defensive position, knowing their speed was far greater than hers all she could do in that instance was counter. The hollow would let out a snicker as her prediction completed itself. Both soul reapers divining on each side of her with swords raised but she was ready. Before they could even connect her slashes, both of her tails intercepted the each of them. There would be a deep, disconnecting crunching noise as their jaws clamped around the shinigami’s hands as they caught them. Their faces fell in horror upon realizing what had happened, followed by the unison scream as the two of them feel to the ground. Crimson liquid flowed down from the jaws of her tails, both Zanpakutos clenched in between their teeth. “Pathetic…” the hollow would scoff displeased while both jaws would spit the blades out to the side. Not they would be much a threat anymore, as their wielders have had no way of equipping them anymore. Vitani would sigh as she reach down to the wailing two. She was thoroughly disappointed, if she had wanted to spend her time with weaklings she would have stayed back. Her hands would reach down and coil around the throats of both reapers, lifting them up off the ground by her necks. The expressions they made up for the disappointment. The look of absolute fear and terror giving Vitani a rush sensation. She gave thew two a final twisted smile before both her tails rose over her shoulders, both their mouths agape and drooling after having an initial taste. The soul reapers only left with a final parting scream before their heads were a clamped down upon. The only noise remaining being the sound of crunching bones and flesh.
Sasori rips through the Rukongai villagers, deciding to follow the wolf’s example of eating the hearts of the slain. He enjoyed the taste of the meat, but much preferred the taste of the actual souls himself. He sees one of the smaller hollows catch up, and catches some of the weaker souls, rips off their legs, and tosses them to the smaller hollow. He decides to have a bit more fun with this and activates his claws, green spiritual energy encasing his Scorpion Blade. He tears through several more souls, eating some himself and tossing some to the side for the scavengers. He notices the weaker hollow starting a fight with a weak Shinigami. Sasori keeps an eye on it, ready to step in if he ends up needing help. He also makes a point to ignore the entrance of the stuck up Arrancar. He then sees another Vasto Lorde show up, and watches them in interest for a while before returning to his ripping apart of people. He watch his claws rip through their souls with great enjoyment.

Next to enter amongst the pack of the Hollows, was the Primero Espada as he flowed through the souls trying to escape the onslaught of his more vicious companions... and failing as a few bored swings of his spear cuts down those getting in range of him. "Can this be anymore more boring? Where is the meat of this meal~!?" His crimson eyes glancing over his shoulder as a Shinigami rushes him from behind. The beast of the man lifts his left hand and fire a single Bala, removing the defender's head before he got close enough to get hit. His eyes glancing about the battlefield more as he takes not of the one calling him 'brother' as well as a new ship had entered and got to feeding herself as well. 'Impressive~ I could use someone like her on my roster.'
His attention then turns to one far more familiar to him. The Princess of Hueco Mundo, daughter of Ronan, Vanessa was here was well. The shark walks up behind the new Vasto Lorde, and whispers into her ear, "If you seek power, then seek me out after this." After speaking to Vitani, Ambrosio moves over to the Princess and scoops her up in his right arm, "Long time, no see... how long has it been now?" His smirk only widening as his right hand rests on her rear, while his crimson eyes gaze over the carnage. "Now if we could only get these 'Shin-i-gami' to leave their tea parties." The way he steely cold way he spoke, and his mocking pronunciation, likely showing his disappoint to the lack of challengers this little 'raid' had generated.
