Grim Now that he had become a Vizard, he decided to try and learn Garganta. He knew that he'd probably prefer Earth over Hueco Mundo or Soul Society, but wanted to know it just in case someone was hunting him. Although he knew that he would no longer be accepted in Soul Society, and he was already in Hueco Mundo, the only place Grim could think of was the same place he got turned into a Hollow. Heading over towards the the reiatsu of some Hollows, Grim hoped he could find some to try and learn the concept of Garganta from. Walking straight along the sands, he didn't even do anything as he passed be weaker Hollows. When they got angered from his ignorance and attacked, he quickly killed them before continuing on. Soon enough, Hollows would stop attack and simply move away. As he got deeper, he started encountering some Gillian class Menos Grande. Stopping at one of them that didn't seem to react to him, Grim walked towards him. "So, are you start enough to tell me how to open a Garganta? Or will I have to keep looking?" Seeing the Gillian ignore him, Grim asked one more time. "Well, can you? Or are you as stupid as the rest of these Hollows?" Not getting a reaction, Grim turned around. "Well, I guess you are." Walking away, Grim was heading towards Los Noches when he heard the Gillian talk. "You shouldn't talk so tough..." Grim turned around to face the Gillian. As he did, it moved towards him, being face to face with Grim. "... when you clearly aren't." Grinning, Grim looked at the Gillian. "Tch. If I'm not so tough, then why do you have a sword to your neck?" As the Gillian looked down a bit, he noticed that Grim had already drawn his blade and place it at his neck during his movement. "Heh. So your fast... it doesn't mean you are strong." Pulling back his fist, the Gillian swung a punch at Grim. "Idiot." Opening his hand towards the Gillian, Grim stopped the punch cold. "Do you really think that I'd come down here if I wouldn't be able to kill you easily?" Looking up, Grim activated his Defense Analysis. Seeing plenty of weaknesses, Grim sheathed his Zanpaku-tou and punched the Adjuschas in the stomach. With the force of his punch, Grim pulled back his arm and drew his blade again. "So, I see that you won't help me? Look, I really don't care how your life goes. It's completely up to you. You can either teach me how to open a Garganta, or die here by my blade." Seeing the Gillian get up, Grim could tell he was angry. "Oh, oops. I probably shouldn't have punched you so hard, should I?" "You will pay for that..." "By you? I doubt that. In fact, let's see how well you do." Twisting his Zanpaku-tou, Grim holds it with the blade pointing down. "Kireru, Kage Kama." After the scythe finished forming itself, Grim decided to form his mask for the first time. Bringing his free hand to his face, Grim starts to form the mask, watching the Gillian's reaction. "Well then, let's see how long you last." Moving at high speeds, Grim heads straight for him. Reaping his scythe 4 times, Grim cuts off both legs and both arms. Now that the Gillian was just a lump of flesh, Grim sighed. "Not even worth it..." Taking off his mask, Grim lets his Hollow side fade as he seals his Zanpaku-tou. "Well then... you were useless to me after all." Seeing the Hollows around him now eying their former superior, Grim walks away as they start to consume the remains of the Gillian.Grim examined his new surroundings and kept wandering the area. "Ugh, this just looks like a desert..." It felt odd for him being there. He still considered himself a Shinigami, and he was in Hueco Mundo, the world of the Hollows. Although almost anyone he'd meet in Hueco Mundo would be his enemy, being the home for Hollows, Menos Grande, and Arrancar, Grim didn't really feel worried. With the better control he gained for forming his Vizard Mask, Grim knew he'd be able to fight or escape if he needed to. Deciding to finally rid himself of the mask he'd had over his face for so long, Grim reached over and ripped off the part of his cloak that went over his head. Taking off the cloth mask that he had made, he let the air of Hueco Mundo flow along his face. His face was almost completely covered his cuts, scratches and various scars... all of which he got during his time with Mayuri. "I'd like to be able to meet him now... and pay him back in full for everything he's done to me." Now that he had become a Vizard, he knew he wouldn't be accepted as a Shinigami and would even be hunted down by Soul Society. But, unlike Hollows themselves, Grim had no intention of starting random violence. He felt a lot of reiatsu signatures nearby in battle. "Ugh, too bothersome." Opening a Garganta, Grim stared at it for a few seconds, realizing what he did. "Huh, I guess I didn't need to learn it after all... oh well." Grim walked through as it closed behind him.Grim Learned: Garganta Lines: 405 - 400 = 5

Naniyori made the walk back to his hidden home quickly enough, taking paths that he had long since learned to use in order to avoid some of the weaker Hollows who would only bother him as he went. Besides which, there had been an influx of the strong from outside Muchos as of late and he had no intention of running into another fight. He lifted his arms, and gripping the boulder that hid his place pulled until the archway was open once more to him. He meant for this to be the last time he stopped here, at least for a long time, and he wanted to grab as much as possible. Naniyori moved through the archway, and the first thing that came into view was the punching bag that he had hung long ago but still maintained. The stuffing, while old, had recently been re-fixed with some materials he found through less than favorable means and it would be an excellent addition to whatever room he chose to haunt back at Tra'al. Unhooking the bag, he hoisted it over his shoulder and carried it to a large torn sack he had with him to carry such materials. Having set that down, he turned and noticed a few mementos of once immessurable value- he now felt them unnecessary since he would be going forward into a new life, where he would craft his fate once more. Other than that, he peeled forth a few "mats" he had used for other basic exercises and warm ups that would be usable in his gym-like room, and having prepared his meager bag turned to exit. The place was almost desolate without these items, and to some it might have seemed sad. He, however, grew a wide grin when he realized he would be moving to someplace better- a place with invaluable tools and others whom he could bend to their common purpose. They would be allies, and they would destroy those who opposed their common will. Naniyori turned soon after, and moving the boulder back in place hid the area once more. He turned, glancing at the gray sky as a whisp of darkness moved over the sky, clear signs of rain. He turned and went down onto his lower path beneath the hill, planning to avoid most other Hollows and hopefully some of the rain. Naniyori took to a quick pace despite his bag of trinkets, however, and the going was quick before the entrance to Tra'al that he had glanced once before became visible. With a nonchalant shrug he lifted the bag back to full height, and walked out of Muchos again.

(( If anyone wants to roleplay with me, just post an interaction with me. )) Koi hadn't been searching for anyone in particular, simply deciding upon scouring a land with features which matched a moonlit desert, more or less. Although it was known as a land of ill-intent and evil, Koi found it to be rather pleasant. Even if he had been attacked, something told him that everything would be alright, especially in part of the fact that he was incapable of actually killing others. No matter the amount of times he struck a foe, the worst he could do is knock them out cold, numbing the entirety of an opponent's body and therefore treating it as though they had died. The only difference between death and Koi's form of knocking them unconscious is the fact that eight full hours later, they wake up, not having to arrive at the Central Forty-Six. Standing still, he had the feeling that others may have been near by, waiting on whether or not they would cross his path or continue on.Koi: ( 20 ) Koi Spd - 70 Str - 5 Def - 80 Sta - 25 Sp - 270 - 135 = 135

"You know, to be completely honest, it's a bit odd for anybody to give up on a potential ally so easily." Rednal said dryly as he appeared behind the Quincy through his power of Dimension Slide. "It makes it look like you have no guts or ability to follow through on things. Then again... you're a Quincy, aren't you? This isn't the sort of refined place Quincies usually seem to enjoy... People with that power don't always seem to be able to appreciate the wild beauty of this place." And who said Rednal wasn't poetic? "My advice for you is to go back to Earth before you attract attention. The Hollows in this area are jokes barely worthy of the name, but there are beings stronger than you can imagine in this realm." This was truer than the Quincy was ever likely to understand. It was a bit ridiculous, really.

With the Quincy Healing Strings technique, Koi's body began to release small strands of spiritual particles, wrapping around the most stressed part of him currently: his hands. Just then, Rednal arrived on the scene, but he did not flinch; merely shifting his eyes toward the direction of his spiritual pressure, and slightly turning his head, Koi knew that while healing up he could not make sudden movements, or else it would stop completely. "I cannot force one to follow my own path, can I not? I figured that I would just take leave." Truth be told, Megami helped Koi arrive, but her silence left him in the dark as he attempted to figure out a way back home. "Well, I fear not any source of power. If they're that powerful, then they're a threat to you as well considering our energy signatures are nearly aligned." Of course, Koi's loss of energy due to earlier events would mean that he's very well halfway through with his daily limit. Continuing with the use of the Healing Strings, he felt bits of his energy returning to him, making the young Master Quincy quite relieved.Koi: ( 38 ) Koi Spd - 70 Str - 5 Def - 80 Sta - 25 Sp - 270 - 135 + 10 (Healing Strings) = 145

Rednal actually smiled. This human was funny... incredibly ignorant, but funny. "If you go by the general standards of power, we're both in the low hundreds." he said calmly. "There are beings in Hueco Mundo that have passed the million-point mark. Not many, I'll admit that much, but they exist. As for being a threat to me, well... I have ways of dealing with them." Mostly, this was their fear of his brother, who was even stronger than they were. Usually. Hollows who reached that tier of power did not seek battles for no reason; they had survived the stage where they were hot-headed and had gained insight and maturity. To some extent, anyway. "You smell rather... interesting." Rednal added, referring to the human's spiritual smell, not his physical one. "Encountered a Hollow inside yourself yet?" Rumors had been circulating about a group of Mortals who had managed to create a sort of fake Vizard... though any Quincy who would accept their inner Hollow was clearly insane. Quincy and Hollows did not mix very well.

"I highly doubt such power exists, and if so... there are two secret techniques, passed down the lineage of my mother and father. With that in my blood, I doubt these 'million-point' beings would pose that much of a threat." What Koi neglected to mention was the fact that these techniques were not yet in his possession, and that their dire costs would prove to be fatal in the end. Upon Rednal's inquiry of Koi's inner secret, he knew it was only a matter of time before everyone around him found out of it. "Well..." He trailed off, trying to find the correct words to explain his predicament, "I have met her, and trust me, if we're speaking on scales of power, hers is definitely superior to those beings you mention." Nodding softly, a few more words escaped those lips of his in an easy tone. "Megami, the Hollow influenced into my body by unknown means, has always been dorment within me. Of course, that's not to say that I'm evil, but all of my compressed emotions had to go somewhere. I know it seems rather odd, and it's also odd that I haven't ill-will toward Shinigami or Hollows, but that's how I was raised. Why should I hate an entire race, when I can simply dislike individuals?" It was true enough; the bleeding heart that was in the form of this young Quincy had Megami to thank for his sensitivity and kindness.Koi: ( 60 ) Koi Spd - 70 Str - 5 Def - 80 Sta - 25 Sp - 275 - 125 + 10 (Healing Strings) = 160

Rednal choked on his laughter. "Don't bet on it." he managed to gasp out. Like anybody else was in his own situation. Sobering after a few moments, he stared at the Quincy. "Secret Techniques are nice and all, but there's a point when raw power can overcome pretty much anything. In all seriousness, an attack with a general rating of a hundred thousand is not going to be stopped by an arrow or two. Reality doesn't work the same way as stories do. Fortunately for you, though, I don't typically hate entire races either... though I do rather think that Humans are pretty stupid overall. I was born a Vasto Lorde, after all, and once you're past Gillian, you aren't just a mindless killer anymore. Normal Hollows, however, are simply food." This was the way Rednal viewed the world. Vasto Lorde's were possible companions and rivals, while Adjuchas and below was something to snack on when he got hungry. He'd never lost the taste for eating Hollow flesh that had been in him since the day he was born. "Now, the Shinigami you might want to think about disliking... considering that they are absolutely racist, not to mention arrogant, domineering, and under the belief that only they have the right to decide life or death for souls... As if we aren't intelligent enough to make our own choices. Perhaps, sometime, I'll introduce your inner Hollow to mine." he added, completely changing the subject with no warning whatsoever.

"Says you, of course, but you've never seen this power of which I speak. To be frankly honest, you couldn't even defeat me on your own, so I wouldn't allow your opinions to faze me. Instead, I'll believe in what I've said already, and I don't believe you can judge my ability to befall nearly any source of power." Although the one before him commented on humans as being ignorant, he could note the same about the prejudice one standing before him. Even if he claimed to have no prejudice, I'd be sure of the fact that it's untrue. Shaking his head lightly as though finding it shameful, he was beginning to feel rather annoyed. Standing his grounds, Koi merely gave a look of being plain and content.Koi: ( 81 ) Koi Spd - 70 Str - 5 Def - 80 Sta - 25 Sp - 275 - 115 + 5 (Healing Strings) = 165

Rednal simply stared at the Quincy. Not an incredulous stare, by far, but one of patient amusement. "Mm-hmm." he agreed. "And you couldn't defeat me on your own, so I suppose we're both even. Then again..." In one fluid motion, he whirled around once, throwing a spear that formed in his right hand straight through the air over the Quincy's left shoulder, not quite close enough to where it would have hit him, but significantly faster than either of them could run. In fact, the Quincy would probably only notice its passage by the wind made from its trajectory and perhaps a blur. "...You know even less about me than I know about you. Quincy are fairly straightforward individuals; you fight with Bows and believe you have a sort of duty to mortals. I suppose you're lucky; I have no such basis on which to solidify my existence. I'm simply here, with no purpose or goal in life." he took a step backwards. "Well, see ya. Don't blame me if you get eaten, and try to control your energy while you're here. Hueco Mundo has a lot more ambient energy than Earth, and you'll hurt yourself if you try too hard to manage something." he pivoted in place and took another step, vanishing halfway through. The spear hit the ground and vanished.

Although the spear was aimed to fly over Koi's shoulder, he was able to see the motion rapidly with his Eagle's Eye ability, quickly holding his left hand up. Extending his index finger while the rest were still folded downward, a calm look about him as his right arm remained folded behind his back, he stopped the supposed spear with the use of but one finger, his Faultless Defense and Balance the Equation overpowering the assault, not even allowing it to do so much as cause him to flinch or knock his hand back by nowhere near a mere centimeter. "Perhaps if your entire existence is shrouded in mystery, then I'd know less about you than you know of me. In this case, I don't think you have the knowledge you so speak of." The moment he had moved his hand the Healing Strings let loose, and he was no longer recharging the lost spiritual energy which was returning to him.Koi: ( 101 ) Koi Spd - 70 Str - 5 Def - 80 Sta - 25 Sp - 275 - 110 = 165
