Taida nods back. “I see. This used to be a home of our kind. And of course we will help, though Yosai will likely be more help than I am with these things. He has the strength out of the two of us.” He gestures at the doll beside him when he says Yosai. He takes several steps further into the house upon having received an invitation to stay and starts looking around. He sees several things that are clearly bount inspired, and his eyes glaze over a bit. Suddenly they sharpen, clearer than before with a bit more life in them. Several memories click in place inside his head, and his reiatsu level doubles. He takes a step down the hall, and then suddenly shifts through the shadows until he is at the far end of it. He stops and stands still for a moment, and then grins and mutters to himself. “That is how that works. I see, this is part of being a bount. Yes, I remember now.” He reverses the process back down to where Edward is and turns to him. “What happened in the city? There is quite a bit of destruction out and about.”

XXXXX As Taida and his doll that he introduced as Yosai enter the castle, Edward and Fenrir go inside with them, after which Taida and Yosai go down a hall and disappears into one of the side rooms. While they are doing that Edward is staring at the hole in the wall the hollow made as it came barreling through the wall between the entry room and the room it was in before Edward yelled at it and the fighting began as it came through the wall. "I am going to have to find a craftsman who is able to fix this, because this damage is completely unacceptable." he thinks before he senses the strength increase of Taida and Yosai, and turns to see Taida testing his Black Flight technique. He then asks what had happened to the city to which Edward responds with "I wouldn't know, I was trapped in the god-forsaken realm of hueco mundo for long enough to lose track of time, and when I escaped from there I ended up here in the castle, and when I left the castle for the first time to look for some souls to eat, the city was already mostly destroyed."

“Well, I think I will do what I have found is best to do in every new place I visit. Go and explore, as well as find out the important people of the place. And those with power, to know who to befriend or watch out for. I will leave Yosai here to help you with fixing things up.” He turns to Yosai, who nods. “Sounds good to me.” Yosai replies in a deep, gravely voice with undertones of asphalt grinding against itself. Yosai moves over to where Edward is and awaits orders while Taida pulls a cloth similar to that his pack is made from and wraps it around the gun so that it ends up not quite looking like a gun, but still looks very odd. “If you end up not needing his help, let him know and he will come find me.” He then walks off into the destroyed city to see who he could meet.

It was late in the afternoon and the young Bounto, Alesia, had just finished cleaning her room. In her hand was around two hundred Ryo that she had scrapped up just from cleaning one room in the old, battle worn castle. She would take in a deep breath before out.
XXXXX After responding to what Edward said, Taida left to go scout out the city while leaving Yosai here at the castle to assist in the restoration efforts. "Well Yosai unless you are skilled in masonry and stone carving, start helping Fenrir carry more furniture out here. I'm going to start sorting through what has already been brought out to see what is and isn't worth keeping." he says to the large doll before turning to all the things already taken out of the castle so that he can start sorting through them. Fenrir then barks at Yosai to get his attention then leads him to where the next set of rooms to take everything out of so that it can be sorted through, but when Fenrir opens the door he finds something unexpected a young bount girl having just finished cleaning the room. Fenrir then lest out a series of loud barks that Edward is able to hear from outside. Upon hearing Fenrir bark out Edward immediately uses black flight to quickly zoom from outside the castle to where Fenrir is. Appearing suddenly from out of the shadows he sees the young bount, then he scratches Fenrirs chin while saying "Now now Fenrir it's rude of you to startle a guest of the castle like that. I'm sorry for that young miss let me properly introduce myself I am Sir Edward Filo Schnitt and this is my doll Fenrir. I am the owner of this castle, and I am currently in the process of restoring the castle to it's former glory. If you, or any other bount wishes to stay here all i ask is you assist in the restoration." then he gives a small bow to the young girl. When he comes up from the bow the young girl is gone seeming to have completely ignored him.

Ryan entered Castle Redbrook in search of some cavern that he and Shadow Fang had heard of from another much older bount. He walked around the castle grinning at the damage someone else had caused."Not something to grin about. Do you really want us to train in this mess."Ryan looked down at his doll a large black wolf. "I suppose not." He muttered as his doll sniffed the air. "I sense them too. Should we greet or ignore?" In all honesty Ryan would rather be left alone and leave them alone. If they were weaker than he was he would have no problem harassing and maybe even killing them. Though he did not want to fight someone strong enough to kill him. Annoying them however was another story. However Ryan's hopes of weaker bounts was dashed the moment he figured out how strong the two he sensed were."Avoid"Ryan nodded if possible he would avoid the others. Though apart of him was tempted to ask about training. He decided against and headed a different direction in the castle. As Ryan turned away down one hall he tripped over a stone he had not seen on the floor falling with a spectacular face plant on the filth covered rug. With Shadow Fang laughing his head off at him. Ryan cursed and threw the offending stone at his doll knowing it was a futile effort. He sat there rubbing his now sore foot glaring at Shadow Fang."Smooth how are we to avoid them with all that noise?""Shut up." Ryan said as he moved to stand up. Maybe for once in his life he could do something nice without strings attached.
XXXXX After he realized the girl was gone him and the dolls started to look for where she had gone when Edward split up from Fenrir and Yosai to cover more ground. After spending a while looking for the girl that up and disappeared on him without a word Edward sensed the reiatsu of another bount entering the castle alongside his doll. As Edward approached the new arrivals as they snuck about the place, he saw the bount trip and fall face first into one of the rugs that had not been taken outside yet. That and the banter between the bount and his doll made Edward chuckle slightly before he revealed himself by speaking up. Saying "Greetings I am Sir Edward Filo Schnitt the new lord of this castle. As you can see the castle is undergoing some "remodeling." If you, or any other bount you know wish to stay in one of the rooms or make use the castle's facilities, all ask for is assistance in the restoration of this castle to it's former glory." before giving a small gentlemanly bow, Edward hoped that the new arrival would volunteer to make himself useful rather than try to sneak about now that it was clear his presence was know.

Ryan shot another glare at Shadow Fang then jumped nearly a foot when one of the two that he was hoping to hide from pops up on him. Crap." He mutters while his wolf growls and moves closer. Ryan studies Edward as he speaks to him. He knew or thought he knew that they were in trouble now. But relaxed slightly as the stronger bount introduced himself and claimed the place as his."I am Ryan this one is Shadow Fang." He said with a slight nod at his doll "Stop it Shadow." He muttered to Shadow Fang as the doll stops growling Ryan turns his attention back to the stronger bount. "I was told this was the training grounds for our kind not someones home." He hesitates a moment as he digests the rest of what Edwards said then shrugs. "Truthfully I, we would rather destroy a place than to repair a place. But if this is where we train it should be cleaned up." With a sigh and another halfhearted swipe at Shadow Fang who was snickering at him, Ryan then asks "What do you want me to do?" while waiting for a response he wonders why he even bothers to try to hit the black wolf when he knows full well that he would never manage to hit the beast.
XXXXX After Edward finished speaking the new arrival he addressed, they responded by introducing himself and his doll then saying he was told this castle was a training ground. "Yes, from the stories I've heard training facilities were one of the many functions this castle had back during it's hay day. I am working to restore this place to it's former glory when bount gathered here as if it were the capitol city of our culture." Edward says before Ryan continues by saying he would rather destroy things than repair things, but relenting that the castle was in need of cleaning. Hearing this Edward lets out a maniacal laugh as his gentlemanly persona drops and he begins speaking in a completely different tone. "Oh you want to have some fun destroying things do you? Well I was starting to get hungry. So how about we go cause some destruction while we snack on some human souls?" he says as Fenrir and Yosai come around the corner of the hallway. Seeing them come around the corner Edward says "Ah there you are Fenrir come on lets go grab a bite to eat.Yosai stay here and keep an eye on the place as you keep moving furniture out to the sorting area. Ryan follow me if you want to have some fun or stay here and help Yosai sort out which furniture is worth keeping and which should be thrown out." dropping back into his gentlemanly tone while he starts giving orders. Edward and Fenrir then walk out the castle without even looking back to see if Ryan and Shadow Fang are following.

Ryan nods as Edward tells him about the stories he had heard about this being a training ground among other things. Ryan had to admit at least to himself that this places past was intriguing to him. Their was a time when Ryan loved to learn about the past. Ryan is then startled by the sudden change in Edward and slowly starts to grin as the man speaks. Causing destruction was always one of Ryan's favorite hobbies. And getting something to eat while at it was always a benefit.Meanwhile Shadow Fang had moved over to check out Fenrir and Yosai curious as to why and how this man has two dolls while his brat only has one. But the moment Edward heads towards the door to hunt and destroy stuff he shoots out of the castle like its on fire. "You are not leaving me if their is destruction to be had lead the way." Ryan says following behind Edward as his own stomach growled. Or maybe it was a growl of impatience from Shadow Fang who was now at the path ahead of them. Ryan wondered why Edward was leaving one of his dolls behind to continue working while they were off having fun. Instead of taking both for an even greater amount of damage to be had But quickly dismissed it as his own hunger called for food and his desired to cause destruction mounted even higher with each step that he took on his way out of the door.

Yosai spends a while straightening up the furniture and moving it to a sorting area. He spends a while doing this before he hears a ching in his head. Taida is calling him, and he needs to go to his friend. Taida had been gone for quite a while. Yosai hopes he isn’t in danger. He finishes settling the piece of furniture he was holding on the rickety pile he had made and sets out from the bount castle. He keeps to alleys best he can, and makes sure to pass open spaces only when no one is around. It is slow going, but other than a few drunks in alleyways, he avoids being seen.

Dante would move along the halls of the castle, looking about with his icy blue eyes. He wasn't one to accept his bount side much since he didn't like the idea of actually eating people's souls. He always felt bad afterwards when he slipped up. But that was neither here nor there. In all honesty, he was in Castle Redbrook to possibly find a way to learn some things to gain control of his Dhampir side. "Ugh...this place is so....Dracula....goth." He muttered to himself as she moved to sit down in a common area.
Dante would slowly look about as he adventured through the castle itself still. No one in the place, what a pity. The blonde male would had loved someone to talk too at some point. But it seemed like that wouldn't be the case for the moment. He came to a library filled with books, a small smile coming to his lips as he looked through all the shelves. His eyes peered and observed every single piece of literature before picking out something and finding a chair to sit in and read slowly to himself. The man hummed lightly as he opened up the leather bound item in his hand, flipping through the pages slowly and gaining more interest as time went on.
Taida arrives outside the castle to see that some more of the mess has been cleared away and moved into a specific area. He wanders inside and around the castle for a bit, collecting various thoughts and random strands into full fledged memories. He starts recalling various things bounts were able to do, as well as things that their dolls were able do. As he wanders the castle, learning its layout, he is thankful that that Edward fellow isn’t here right now. That guy came of … wrong isn’t the right word, but Taida didn’t like him. He couldn’t put his finger on why, but that was the truth. He continues to wander the castle until he came to a library. And walking through it a bit, he came across someone else sitting there reading. He stops a few feet away from them and speaks. “Hello?”

Ryan arrives at Castle Redbrook he had enjoyed himself destroying he hot springs and the cemetery. Unfortunately their fun had been ended by a pain in butt Mod Soul. Another of the Shinigami's creations that they lost control of. He was all for destroying them right along with the Shinigami. But for now he would do some more training. Ryan did not get far before his doll scented a human. So he hunted the human down surprised that one was here. It did not take long to find Dante and Taida in the library. Ryan stands their a moment then decides that he does not care and walks away. His doll sighs impatiently and follows leaving the human to the other Bount. As he hunts down a quieter area of the castle he wonders if he would see Edward soon or if the Mod Soul had killed him. Running may have been a cowardly act but at least he would live to fight another day. He eventually finds a room in which to train that is a good size and with little to no damage. He only had Vampirism left to learn then maybe he would go to the dojo and learn some hand to hand combat. But for now he needed to focus on his current training. He then glances over at his doll and decides to pick a fight with Shadow Fang. And grabbing an old brush that he had seen laying discarded on a table approaches his wolf like doll. Either to brush his dolls fur or to beat it was hard to tell. The wolf of course noticed Ryans actions and turned to face him snarling.
