Welcome to Gaia! ::

Contenmo smiled and closed his eyes. "You're lucky. Fortunate, I am not one of the Noah's prone to violence." He says, flicking a hand back and forth. One of his wrists was curiously tattoed all the way around, a circle of crosses branded into his other-wise unblemished skin. "There are five positions. Seats left." He answers Xeno's questions with remarkable patience. Then his blissful smile spreads into a crazy grin once more. He sits up with lightning speed and rests his arms on his knees as he looks at Xeno. Obviously the hollow had said something he wanted to hear. "You would be surprised. Shocked. If you are going for the first position. Spot. Then you would have to beat. Destroy Stark. Not an easy feat. Acclomplishment." He whispers, just barily audible beneath the wind. Ignoring the sarcasm, or perhaps not even noticing it, Contenmo replies to Xeno's stark statement with agreement. "Yes. It is beautiful. Wonderous. Isn't it?" He asks looking across the burnt and desolate wasteland, once unmarred sands and dunes. Now it was scarred by fire and ash.

((don't worry about it. If you need a shard, I would suggest talking to Commando Omnipants))

Contenmo laughs and says, "Comeon! Don't be so serious! Dour!", then shook his head and looked up into the sky. He was thinking. One thought he had was that Xeno really needed to lighten up. The guy was too tense. Too serious. Obviously the 'little' hollow was thinking too much about the future. "Hmmm. The seventh. The eighth. The sixth. The fifth. Uhm. The first. Those are all occupied by the old generation. Old espada." He said, smirking as he looked at Seighart. He smiled as the hollow groaned in despair. It was amusing to Contenmo, knowing he had the same thoughts so long ago. Well, not that long ago. It felt like ages, but in reality it was probably just a few months. Contenmo stood and walked up to Xeno, clasping a hand on the down-trodden guy's shoulder. He felt kinda bad for the 'little' hollow. "I can take. Bring you to Earth if you want. Desire."

It wasn't too long ago when these very lands that the female hollow owl is now standing on, was burned. Everything was gone, the sand was messed up due to the chemical reaction but now, the huceo world seems to slowly going back into it's tracks where it once was. Not that this female hollow owl would remember that or doesn't even care to notice that something is a bit different about this place. All this owl is concerned is to find something for it to land on or feed on. It was hard to find a dead tree around here, even harder then it once was since they all burned but she manages to find one now and then. Landing onto a branch she calmly fold her wings to her side, relaxing quite a bit, finally taking a bit of a break. Her black beady eyes glancing around along with her head, tilting at angles and moving it's head that only an owl could do. She wasn't only looking around but more importantly, listening. For any heartbeats or growls of a hollow. She wanted to be sure that she is indeed safe up in this tree and resting on a dead branch at the time being. Tilting her head, she starts trimming her feathers with her beak called preening, to keep her feathers nice and silk, there is a reason why owls were known as silent killers, unable to hear their wings. Sometimes people won't even notice there's owls around unless there's pellets and not to mention, the owl calls throughout the night. The female hollow owl paused for a moment and perks it's head up as if it just picked up on something and sure enough, a tiger like hollow is heading towards the tree that she is resting on. The female hollow owl just kept it's black beady eyes focused on it, watching, making sure it will just pass her tree, but once it puts it's paws on the trunk of the tree, a warning screech escaped from her beak as she spread out her wings, ready to attack if this tiger does not back off. The tiger ignores the warning and attempts to climb up as this daring female hollow tackled the tiger as they both land to the sand with a thud. The female hollow owl gets onto the sand with it's talons, it's wings still spread and keeping a close eye on the tiger which just got onto it's paws, snarling and growling towards the owl. The owl knew that if it tries to fly up, the tiger can swipe it's massive paw towards the owl. The owl will just have to time herself right. Using her talons, she managed to grab some sand and take flight, letting go as the tiger roar in anger with the sand in it's eyes, using it's massive paw to wipe away the sand from the eyes. Seeing it's chance, the owl started pecking away, clawing as well, causing the tiger attempt to jump to tackle it, but that was the wrong move as the owl saw it's chance and used the sharp talons, one swipe at the neck and the tiger lays dead. Ruffling it's feathers as it seems to shake off what happened as the tiger glows and then disappears. Flying to the branch, the female hollow owl resumes what she was doing, which is taking care of her light blue feathers.

The hollow owl is rather content as it seems to take care of it's own feathers. This little being did notice another one awhile back but it didn't seem to try to attack her.. course that being was occupied with the scorpion like hollow. It lets out a soft hoot sound when she was done on one side and focusing on the other side... until her owl hearing started to triangulate on something she was hearing. Turning her head to see what was going on, that being she saw earlier, with the short black hair and some kind of spider tattoo on it's back seems to getting closer to the tree. Feeling threaten as the owl seems to puff up it self, trying to make itself look bigger as the feathers look unruffled. Yet, the being doesn't seem like that she would hurt this little bitty dangerous hollow owl. Hearing the being introduced itself, she seems to get back to where it was, her feathers smooth and silky, no longer puffing herself up by getting her belly and body swell up a bit. If this being wanted to try to hurt her it would done so earlier. The owl seems to tilt it's head in such odd angles that only an owl could do before hooting in respond towards the female hollow, not yet able to communicate but this owl is far more smarter than many may have believed. Stretching out her wings as she lifts up into the sky, not one flap or anything of that matter. Owls are really silent killers of the night. The female hollow couldn't tell this female her name because she doesn't have the right throat and vocals in order to do so. She did consider, expressing herself to ask Juri to bring up her arm so she could land onto it, but this female hollow owl doesn't mind flying for the time being. However, Juri can talk all she wants, and this female hollow owl will listening, maybe giving out an agreement hoot when understanding her, at least the hollow owl can shake it's head. So if there was any questions she wanted to know, they would need to be yes or no, if not, then this hollow owl will have to express herself in order to communicate with this female hollow.

The female hollow owl tilts it's head at the sound of a branch being snapped. Landing on one of the tree branch once again, she glances towards the female hollow, wondering what this person has in mind. Hearing the question, she lets out a soft and gentle hoot, only once to say yes and watched her writing letters onto the sand. Taking off in air once again, only to land on the sand, she would land on the first one... and once Juri would take that letter, she would go tot he next one and stand there until she writes it and go to the next one and so on forth. This way would be so much quicker then just waiting for her to hoot especially since the first two letters of her name are near to the end of the alphabet. The hollow owl isn't comfortable being on the ground, after all, there is a reason why they would take to the skies. Their talons isn't exactly made for the ground, but at least this hollow could know her name. Once the letters are put out it seems that it is X-y-l-i-a. Xylia. The female hollow leaps up once again from the ground and is now resting on the branch. Once Juri does start walking or heading towards somewhere, the female hollow owl will simply follow her by taking flight into the skies. Maybe, if she trusts this female a bit more, she might even alert the female if someone is coming. But for now, they just met, trust will have to be built, but the female hollow owl does remind herself that even a group of hollows that traveled so far been through so much, would stab another in the back so Xylia will have to watch herself around the other hollows.

The female hollow hoots softly in agreement when the female hollow has managed to say it correctly. The name is actually something from greek but it's not her real name it's a name that she'll use for now until she start to trust this hollow and then time will tell as she will tell her, her true name. Her real name is actually is Portuguese. Hearing her speak she glances towards her and it seems that they are just .... standing there... well flying in Xylia's case. Landing on the branch once again, the female hollow owl has let out a bit of a screech but not too loud, as a hollow was seen not too far from here. This female hollow owl was simply warning Juri of a hollow that is coming even though it's far away. To the owl's surprise, the hollow then turns away from the duo. Is it not interested in them or something? The owl glances towards Juri, wondering and pondering of what's going on and then back at the hollow as a portal open in front of the hollow... the hollow entered into it and disappeared. How interesting! Now this is something that she knows that she needs to learn. Xylia glances back towards the female hollow as it lets out a soft calming hoot once again and raised one talon towards where the hollow is, it's head tilting ina rather curious way, very curious to if this female hollow before her knows how to do that as well. If not, well then. They can learn together.

The female hollow heard the other one spoke, asking her if she has ever seen a garganta before. Feeling a bit offensive to the female hollow words, she suddenly puffed up like an owl would when it's intimated, making herself look a bit bigger. Honestly she was just a bit offended, this female hollow owl is brand new to this place only less than a day old and already had to fight to keep herself alive. Watching the female hollow however, getting the hollow's attention by whistling and then later killing it as the garganta remained open. Hearing her wanting to follow as the owl takes leaps to the sky and only flying above the garganta. Hearing Juri explaining the garganta, what it does. Only goes one way to earth? And then can be made on earth to be able to come back here. Well then. While the owl would like to go to earth and get some souls, it knows better, it knows that it's weak at the time being. She may get killed too quickly. Hearing her that forming one is a simple task as she does land on the sand, hating to land on the ground already as the talons wouldn't made to walk or anything like that. She would have to hop to get to where she wants to go. Fortunately she doesn't have to hop at the moment. Deciding to give it a try, the owl spread out it's wings and takes flight once again, not a single sand has kicked up. Owls are really marvelous creatures when it comes to flight and the silence that stirs them. Flying and focusing, the hollow owl managed to open a small portal just for it's size but then flies up to avoid the portal for the time being as she closed it as well. Landing on the branch, it lets out a soft cooing sound but it was for itself. Rather pleased for what she is learning but it's all thanks to this hollow who is actually explaining and taking the time for her. Yet the female hollow squawks out in surprise as it quickly takes flight as the branch falls down to the sand. Great. Now the owl is running out of branches. however this one was different.... landing on the sand and getting a closer look, she even moves it some on the beak... ti seems like the branch was burned through by something acidic. The owl then blinks at it looks at it's talons for a moment. Deciding to try it, it hops onto the branch and grasp it with one talon as she focused like she did earlier and sure enough the branch as become two. Interesting. The owl looks at it's own talons for a moment before letting out another hoot and flies onto another branch, will be careful this time. It's edger and yet, willing to learn eyes glances towards the female hollow, showing that she is listening and ready to try whatever she is being taught.

The female hollow owl watches Juri gently when she was picking up on the branch and stands there with her talons on the branch. She doesn't mind that Juri is looking at the branches, maybe she hasn't done this move before or she was rather impressed that this female hollow is learning rather quickly. Yet the female hollow owl remains a bit jealous that this female hollow was able to be in a human form, rather pretty too. She remembers what she used to look like, but she's pretty sure that she won't look the same considering she's an owl at the time being. An odd species to suit her and yet, it suits her rather well. The female owl was a bit surprised and startled to hear Juri's next question. If she's a girl. Letting out a soft one hoot which means yet, she cannot help but to wonder why she asked? Maybe this female hollow is a lesbian? Hooting to herself softly at the thought of her being naked... her muscles... she seems to be confident and head strong.... blushing, she seems to tuck her head under as if trying to hide herself as she takes three steps to the left with her talons. The hollow owl has returned back to huceo mundo when Juri has asked it another question. Bala? Giving her a blank stare, she manages to hoot twice, to let her know that she's saying no. Bala... hmm. Maybe something that would be worth her time to learn and hopefully something that she can learn despite the fact that she's only around one foot tall. The portal was easy, it adjusts to any hollow shape and the acidic touch was just lucky, having accidentally focus her power too much into her talons. Now. What is this bala? Hopefully not something too complicated or too hard for this little being to learn.
