Welcome to Gaia! ::

Maxi slowly marches in after the doll a smile on his face as he looks around the office. Spotting Zhen, Maxi walks up to him and drops the crate next to Zhen's feet. "These are new better uniforms for your squad, each comes with instructions. Please try not to bleed all over these ok?" Maxi asks and looks down at Robin, "Your free to either help pass these out or guard the gate. Have fun Robin." Maxi calls over his shoulder as he leaves.

With no direct order given Robin sat unmoving on the desk. He was running through possiblities on his own, without any current orders what was left of free will was working it's way to the surface. And when the student came back and started staring at him, he snapped out of his war-time induced trance for the most part.

"What are you looking at?"

He asked, standing up and putting his paws on his hips.

Robin wasn't too happy with letting this kid fiddle around with him like he was some science experiment to be poked at, so the second he started poking and prodding him he bit him. It wasn't too effective with his cloth teeth, but with a mod soul inhabiting the cloth it was slightly akin to being poked with a dull pencil. With the final worth wile question that the kid posed Robin wondered weather or not he should tell him... He was Yuki's squad member... He had a right to know, especially since he could help, if only a little.

"She has been kidnapped by Hogo, the new leader of the Arrancar, as well as Onalim, captain of squad 4. We're at war now."

Robin hopped off the table and started walking out of the room, to where his data was telling him where the advance force was.

"I'm going to squad three to join the advance force... and get my owner back."

((Going to pretend that I did this BEFORE I headed over to the 3rd squad area, I missed Maxi's post before sweatdrop ))

Stopping by the captain's office on the way towards the 3rd squad where he heard they were meeting to get an advance force together, Hibiki noticed the new uniforms in the office, even though the place was deserted. Checking through them he grabbed one in his size and went back to the barracks to change into before heading out again.

Yuki walked to her office. She hadn't been there in some time, opting to sleep in the apartments rather than in her office where she usually slept. So it wasn't a surprise when she walked back into her office that it was a variable tomb. Having left it in a state of decay with papers and pizza everywhere like the aftermath of a frat boy party, then not coming to clean for weeks had left everything in a state of rot. With a sigh, she resigned herself to cleaning duty today. She had been planning on sleeping, but with enough mold and dust to shame an ancient Egyptian king she couldn't sleep just yet.

Hyronai's soft approach to the door had little effect, he was still standing outside of it and obviously Captain Yuki had not heard it if she were in there. So, Hyro took a most masculine approach and pounded on the Captains Office door. "Bam" ... "Bam" ... "Bam" The pounding was hard however, the door barely shook but the sound was loud and abrupt and would get just about anyones attention.

((I know, in my post it says something about "if she were in there" I'm not going to quote it cause thats being a smart a**!))

As the banging ceased he frowned and exhaled deeply. She wasn't in which was fine, seems she was still training her heart out. My apology can wait he thought an apology is an apology no matter how soon or late it is given.

A black mark suddenly appeared on one of the captain's walls. As soon as it appeared, it slowly widened, getting much, much larger. It was soon about as tall, if not taller, than a full grown man. And then, it stopped growing. The black portal pulsated black reiatsu, giving off a malicious energy that felt like it wanted to pull everything towards it. To devour everything in it's wake. Though, as it was made, a figure slowly walked out, his hands in his pockets, and his head low. Asuma had released his bankai back to it's katana form, after returning from the Zaigou area, wherein he had gone from the Labyrinth. All, to try and find someone who could help him. Daven was unable, which left very few who actually could. Though, he still knew a few that he would be able to talk to. Well, he hoped. The one he had in mind now...was a little...off. From what he had heard, she was very strict, with the rules, and the way he was coming, might just get him killed.

But then again, he was dead either way. If he went back, they would kill him for trying to leave. If he was spotted by anyone else, he would be attacked and most likely killed by the few he was trying to get to talk to him.

But, he had to try. Sighing as he walked in, Asuma looked around, trying to find the captain of the 13th squad, Yukimaru. HE had looked through the records long before he left, trying to learn everything he could on the captains. Yukimaru, Captain of the 13th squad. Though, he didn't have enough time to look in depth on them, he had found enough. He knew that she was one of the oldest captains, next to Nagi of the 5th division, and Rhia of the 2nd squad. Though, Yukimaru seemed like she would have the most say. He had met Rhia. He knew that she was one who was away from her squad often. With Feiy, most likely. And then Nagi...would disappear for months at a time, only to reappear out of nowhere. No, Yuki was pretty much the only way back in.

Looking around him again, Asuma shook his head, walking forward into the next room. This is where her main office was, where her desk was. The only thing hat mattered in the room, the only thing he cared about, was that he saw...well, it's what he didn't see. She wasn't there. Maybe she was out, or maybe she had joined the fight. He didn't know. Though, he would have to talk to her. Could he wait that long? She could be back in a few minutes, a few days, or a month from then. But he had to try. And so, he sat down on the nearest chair, resolved to wait for her to show up.
