Her body hurt, her mind hurt, her insides hurt. Mau rolled over onto her back, breathing heavy in the enclosure of trees that sheltered her from those she was betrayed by. Betrayed... thats what they considered her act when she was infected by a hollow, as if she was able to help it.
Something knotted in her stomach, and for a moment she thought she'd spit up more white stuff and go through the whole ordeal again. Already healing cuts along her arms and hands were all that was left of her fight with her hollow. In the end she'd made a deal with it. She'd keep control of the body and mind, up until she wiped out the soul society, then she'd let her hollow take over.
She moved and sat up, her body feeling very much like lead as she pulled herself to her feet. "Where am I suppose to go?"

An indigo shitagi. A black kosode. A black hakama. A white hakama-himo. Indigo tabi. Waraji. A true garment of the dead; his indigo Captain's Shihakusho. The rhombus Gotei 13 was even on the back of the indigo haori in white, along with the simple for Omega in Latin where the number ought to be. He'd keep his long black hair out of his face, forcing it over his ears to trail down his back, barely allowing for sight of the insignia. He'd stand relaxed, his left hand atop the hilt of his Zanpakuto as if it here an armrest, high right arm inside of his hakama. He'd of appeared with his back to the girl as she'd begun to pull herself up.
He'd slowly turn to face her with a warm smile and calm indigo hues, strange in color but warming nonetheless. He'd tilt his head to the side, then chuckle a bit while his eyes would close. "You're a Captain, aren't you? At least, last I checked you were...hm. I suppose this ordeal could affect the judgment of the Old Man, the other Captains and perhaps even...no, they're no bother. Listen to me ramble, providing you with no answer!" His eyes would open and though they would suddenly show great malice they would still, at least they should for her still somehow be calming as he'd grin close to Gin's grin, though his cheek bones and lips weren't that screwed up. His voice would change, still low and clam, though almost commanding. "Your first idea is going to be to return to the Soul Society, though you know that to be a Death Sentence. You'll no doubt want to take your frustration out on the Seireitei, though attracting attention like that would still be of no good. Attacking individuals in the poor distracts would have the same result...you need to leave the Soul Society. You need to allow those powers to manifest correctly; you need to seize them and make them your own without any stipulations. In the end: You need power." He'd laugh a bit and shrug. "So tell me, where do you go?"

She'd turn as fast as her body would allow her, which was still pretty quick considering the state she was in. By this time, she could hear the whispers of her hollow in the back of her mind. She'd bring a hand to her head, pressing the palm to it and closing her eyes. She hadn't heard the newcomer show up, and for a while she blamed teh insistent whisperings of her hollow.
"Yes...I mean....no." she said apprehensively. "I was a Captain, of Squad 11" she explained. The whispering was ceasing, Mau noticed, stopping now that she'd made eye contact with this stranger. She'd listen as he explained her options and frown, gritting her teeth a bit as he voiced her own question back at her. "I don't know!" she'd shout, the pain in her head coupled with her frustration and already unstable powers weren't helping her temper any. her free hand reflexively wrapped around her sword, white knuckling the hilt as she took a few unsteady breaths, her other hand, gripping her hair by the roots.

He'd laugh as she yelled, finding some amusement in her frustration. His right hand would pull a black leather-bound book from his hakama and he'd flip through the pages a bit before coming to something that would make him grin. "Love of justice perverted to revenge and spite. Oh I've hit the nail on the head!" Again he'd laugh as he placed the book back within his garbs. He'd remove his Zanpakuto from its sheath and revert to a calm smile. "It's natural instinct to want to fight when you're confused or frightened...and I doubt you'd ever listen to a word I muttered without knowing my power." He'd grin and chuckle a bit, his violet hues locked on her, their eyes always meeting less she turned away. "Oh but dear, should I really taken on this shingami-hollow hybrid captain!? Surely she knows Bankai; I must be out of my league..." As he spoke his grip on his simple katana loosened and he'd revert back to a calm demeanor. "Test me, kiddo."

Her hands had started to shake as she forced back her hollow again, so mch so that her sword rattle within it's sheath. "You'll find very much unwise to mock me stranger." Her voice shook much like her hands, but one could very easily see the smile that twisted the corners of her lips as he requested a test.
'He mocks you. You a captain of the gotei 13!' her hollow whispered. Former, she kept telling herself, though that thought in itself brought on teh wave of anguish she'd been trying to fend off, and only helped to fuel the hollows nagging. 'Fight him, show him what you can do. Prove that they'll regret tossing you aside liked yesterdays trash.' She bit back the urge to yell at the voice, and instead drew her sword, her grip as tight as it was before. "So then, you've come to dance with me?" she asked, her tone a bit calmer now tat she'd reserved herself to the idea of fighting. "She'd loosen her grip slightly as she shaky slowly stopped. "Dance upon your reddened wings, Akatateha." The sword glowed and erupted in a flash, instead of her regular Katana, she now held a traditional Gi, the blade a deep crimson red color, two long red tassels hanging from the handle.

"Hm? Oh I'm sorry, I never did mean to give you the impression you stood a chance." He'd release the Spiritual Pressure he was holding back, enough to make even a Vizard or Arrancar to tremble. He'd look to Muramasa with a calm smile and aim it parallel himself. "Defile their names, Muramasa." The blade would grow long and thick, though its thickness remained constant to the tip unlike Ichigo's Zangetsu. "Remember to raise your head, Muramasa." The second command would make the sword give off a flash for a brief second. "I see fighting as a game; something like Chess rather than a dance, though if you ask nicely I'm sure I could teach you to waltz." He'd offer her another kind smile before fading from view only appearing to look as if he were going to strike her, but instead aimed for her Zanpakuto, one strike enough to blow her back...or would have been, had he been using usual tricks. He wanted her as close as possible.

She paled the pressure making her feel ill. She became aware of the fact, rather quickly too, that her swords Shikai form had no affect on this man. 'Strike him!' Her hollow screeched. She blinked and hopped away from his new image. "Akatateha Iktou, bankai." The blade shattered, the pieces scattering out away from her but only so far before freezing in place and changing shape. Wire thin strings reached from the now fluttering fragments down to her fingers. Upon landing, She spun, several of the red butterflies whipping out at him at a blinding speed.

He'd grin as she hopped away he'd place his free left hand to his face, his mask forming. Once she'd begin her spin he'd use Utsusemi a great deal of times, well exceeding what one could with Shunpo, several afterimages being left in his wake. With each afterimage he'd seem to change a bit more, his Zanpakuto slowly rising and his left hand coming to rest on his right wrist. In truth he'd of been behind her for a few moments, leaving a great deal of Spiritual Pressure with each afterimage and pretending to give her a path to predict. Sword pointed at her back, he'd speak in a shrieking tone. "Junsei Mozou, BANKAI!" The blade would grow even longer, easily able to pierce her lest she moved. Muramasa was now its true self: long and thing with a long curve. As the sword grew he'd laugh a bit before tilting his head to the side. "Cero Oscuras." Muramasa would release the 'fully powered black Cero' from its blade aimed at wherever the girl would go, its speed and power so great given it ran off if how powerful he was and its range would be so vast he'd have little to worry about. He'd made sure to restrain it just enough so that if it hit things would bleed and break, but it wouldn't do any permanent damage. Above all else in the end, he wanted to show her he could use Arrancar, Espada at that, attacks while a Vizard.

As the afterimages showed up she'd move, pulling her own mask on. Had she not done this, she wouldn't of realized he was standing behind her. Since she was still new to this, her time limit wasn't anything special, but it had given her the extra time and boost of speed she needed to avoid being stabbed as she twirled to face him and flip back. her mask faded at the same moment he unleashed his Cero. She moved her arms up to block her face, teh wires and butterflies meshing together, but not withstanding the blast. She was blown back,and if at all possible was in more pain then she was before he'd showed up. She found herself staring up at teh canopy of trees above her, several shattered shards of her sword scattered around her now.

He'd rest Muramasa over his right shoulder, blade facing up. He'd Shunpo to her location, the laugh coming from behind the mask rather shrill. His black orbs with indigo rings would stare at her for a moment before his mask would fade away with the wind revealing a smile on his face showing he'd enjoyed showing off. "I'm amazed you were able to figure out you needed Bankai; so many Captains have this miserable tendency to use their Shikai until they're nearly dead before using it. I'm even more amazed, no matter if it was from thought or instinct, that you used the mask as a defense. Still, something's messing with you...like a voice in your head trying to persuade you, right? The hollow portion of you? Hell, I'm amazed you haven't completely Hollowfied honestly...you're full or surprises."
He'd look towards the Seireitei and shake his head, as if ashamed of it. "Tell me...how are Captain Kyoraku n' Captain Ukitake? And...what's become of Sosuke Aizen?" Muramasa would switch back to its dinky self and slide back into its sheath as he came to sit comfortably in front of her, as if it were two friends talking.

((considering this would have to be before Kenpachi and the captain before him took over Squad 11, thats a ways back I guess.))
She still lay on the ground, her bleeding wounds stopping and healing over as he used Shunpo to reach her. She'd stare up at him in a rather defiant sort of way as she waited for him to strike her. She was a bit taken aback as teh mask vanished and she found him smiling honestly. She'd look at him in a sort of confused way as he spoke, and at teh end raise a brow. "your welcome?" She was glad her ability was enough to keep her alive....or as alive as one could call themselves given she was now a vizard.
She felt a few things snap back into place the way they were suppose to be. She'd push past whatever pain was left in her and sit up, hissing as she felt something in her side tear a bit more. Taking a breath she'd recall and re-seal her sword. Sheathing it she'd look up at him as he took a seat. He asked alot of questions, and seem to know more then he asked. Stil her hollow seemed to shut up when he was around, and she took that as a good sign. "As far as I know, both Captains are fine. I'm afraid I saw neither of them upon my exile however. Lieutenant Aizen was there with his captain though, and if it's really any concern to you, he seems well on his way to taking over the squad when the time calls for it." She'd let her mind drift back to her trial and eventual exile. She'd frown, remembering how not even her own squad stood up for her. She'd sigh. "Nothing but a waste of space, playing house to a bunch of rich, uptight, idiots, who fear anything thats different then them. I think they fear the idea of something potentially stronger then them more, which in turn makes them short sighted as well." She was rambling now, but it was nice to get her feelings off her chest, even if it was to a total stronger that had just beat her silly.
She'd focus on him again and tilt her head. "Who are you by the way?"

He'd chuckle a bit and shake his head. "Just like Ukitake and Jushiro to be absent during a big event...still, I'm sure there was good reason you didn't see them. No doubt they were slipping behind people to climb ladders in order to speak to the higher-ups about you even if they knew they'd fail." As she mentioned Aizen he'd stare at her blankly for a moment. "...Too bad for his Captain. Oh well, no harm to me no fowl I suppose!" He'd continue to listen to her, his eyes closing and arms folding inside of his hakama. "Not a big fan of them, are you? I can't really say I blame you; they give reason for constant annihilation on a daily basis yet when push comes to shove on morals they'd rather cast judgment n' kill off a bunch of Quincy. Maybe it's Old Man Yamamoto n' his old age is causing delusions of grandeur...or it's the Central 46, more old men that can't be thinking right. Either way the Captains are choosing to listen so they bring the hammer upon themselves."
He'd rub the back of his neck as she "settled" a bit and pop a few kinks before opening one eye to look at her as she asked him for a title. "You'd fight me as a stranger but talk to me otherwise? You are a strange one...but you obviously get so wrapped up in the idea of revenge that anything in your way needs to be obliterated, and I can honestly respect that." He'd open both eyes and chuckle a bit. "My name doesn't really matter, but you'd find out one way or another eventually so telling you now just saves energy. I'm Kain Kyoshiro, former 4th seat to Captain Ukitake, and even though I speak of the Captains and Aizen as if they were friends, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to cut them to pieces if they stood in my way...I believe at least two of them inevitably will. But, when your aim is to literally unleash Hell, destroy Soul Society and take over the Human World, you're bound to make some fancy enemies, right?" Again he'd laugh as if he'd told a petty joke.

"Quite honestly, I doubt those two were even informed of the real situation." She said bitterly, drawing her self up a bit, and moving to sit with her legs tucked under her. As he mentioned her need for revenge, she'd smirk. "I simply have a goal to obtain is all. That goal is the only reason I didn't get turned into a hollow outright." she explained.
As he explained himself, and how he knew of the captains and Aizen she'd blink. Unleash Hell? that's an idea she'd never heard anyone utter before. The shear gull it took to think of such a conspiracy would be enough to see someone as a loony and send them packing. "You said you're the former fourth seat, they exiled you for your plan obviously." She'd bow her head. "I am Mau Shingi former captain of squad 11. My hollow is Gatto Kenbu." As she introduced her hollow, her voice would take on teh distinct voice of the creature mixed with her own. "I have to say, both my hollow and myself are very much interested in your plan. Surely you didn't try and open those gates on your own?"
