The late night sky is pitch black. Not cloud in sight to be seen, giving a very little chance of rain in near future. The mood light shines it rays into the area giving plenty light to see. Also, having some street lights on helps a little. Faceless people been coming and going into the small coffee shop. Each having their own little life, however each having the same agenda for coming to the shop. To simply have a cup coffee of course!
Outside of the small coffee shop are tables and chairs put out for the customers. Where they can go and sit, and have drink of coffee. On each table, there are small candles to give off some light. The candles are melting are clear while the air whispers, while seemingly too near. As they burn, yellow, blue, and white it all keeps going. All through the night, they sometimes flicker. Moving in torrid patterns, circling, dwindling, sparking tatters, flames wanes, and then rises up.
Legato sat at his table. Not so much enjoying his metal abyss color chair. Legato, legs are crossed over each other for his own comfort. Legato lift his decaff coffee and take a small sip of the black hot liquid, being cautious while sipping to avoid burning his mouth. On the table is a half eaten coffee cake. Legato been enjoying himself with his cake and coffee. However, the only issue he has is people been giving him some looks on his blue hair. Which Legato finds annoying on how they stare at him.
Even after more than a hundred years have passed I still get stare at, Legato thought to himself. Legato look down to his fingers nails to check for dirt that may have gotten in his nails. Legato being a perfectionist he is, he hated anything about himself not being perfect in some kind of way. That was not the only thing annoyed him at the moment. His cake was half eaten, however his coffee was still rather full. Making the coffee cake and the coffee drink not even, not perfect. However, the coffee was too hot to drink to fast. Spilling some out would only be wasteful. Such an annoyance, he thought to himself.

There was a time for one thing, and then a time for no such a one thing. Or rather, an annoying one thing. He's stuck with patrol again! Stupid grunt work, this that, always the city needing guarding, always the stupid people need watched over. He just wished he wasn't stuck doing stuff like this twenty-four-seven. If he had an actual mission to go on, things wouldn't be bad, and Kisuke wouldn't be complaining...to himself. He knew better than to say anything to the division officer that assigned him work. He just wished...oh who knows, he actually didn't know what he wanted exactly, but it's safe to say that walking around a city where no one paid any attention to you was not one of those things. "There is one good thing..." he said to himself, walking amongst the people and minding where he stepped just in case someone decided to step on his foot. "At least there isn't a Hollow around."
Taking out his phone from his Gigai's pocket, he examined the screen that showed no signs of any Hollow activity in the area. In the back of his mind, he kinda wished there was one around, but at the same time, he hasn't had enough practice in his opinion to warrant taking on one alone by himself...unless there was another Shinigami somewhere around here, which...was highly doubtful. At least to him anyway, unless they just happened to send a few all at once just to give them some experience and what not, like Kisuke for example. But that wasn't the point...actually, what was the point? Oh, nevermind, Kisuke was thinking too much. He was nervous...in fact, he was always nervous ever since having that dream again. What is up with that? Dreams, cold sweats, it's enough to drive him insane. At least it can't get any worse.
"RWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!"
So much for that idea. Jumping to the side, he barely avoided a tail that crashed into the street, aimed not at him, but everyone else around him. Dust and rubble went up in smoke and he could see on past the edge of a building a Hollow that stood nearby, but with one long tail! Spikes too...an annoyance indeed. But it had no eyes, just a head with teeth, two arms and two legs with the hollow hole in the middle of the tail. It was at least five times bigger than a Shinigami, and people everywhere were running, with any sense at what was standing before them. They couldn't see it anyway, but that's humans for you. But something was strange: Kisuke could not sense any Reiatsu from it, and his phone wasn't going off like it should. Even if Kisuke couldn't sense it, the presence of a Hollow would make the thing go off like crazy, so what is it? The only logical conclusion he could come to was that this Hollow, it's completely white body, had the ability to hide it's Reiatsu. Didn't do jack seeing though. Taking a piece of Soul Candy from his pocket, he swallowed it instantly, freeing himself from his Gigai as it jerked backwards away from him. Wearing his standard uniform, he slowly drew his Zanpakutou, and hoped that this Hollow wasn't out of his league. |

Legato finally made his coffee and coffee cake even now, both were half eaten and drank. Now came to his next problem. Which one should he start the unbalance again? A real annoyance it was for Legato. Legato, hated anything that was asymmetric. Of course, he is able to let himself to ignore asymmetric things depending on the situation. Depending on the situation, of course. Legato disorder didn’t completely control his life style.
The winds of change blew forth. Legato hair flowed with the wind. This wind was slightly cold compared to the normal winds that have been blowing. Legato raise an eyebrow for a moment. Legato tried to think what could have caused this sudden change. He didn't feel the weather itself changing at all. It was cold and sinister like feeling. Something that could not be explained without something supernatural at work.
Legato, focused on sensing Reiatsu in the area. He soon found one nearby. A spiritual pressure, that feels like a soul reaper. Legato, left a tip on the table and walked forward to this spirit pressure nearby. Legato kept his hand in his pocket for the pills incase he needs to leave his gigai in a hurry. Legato moved quietly and kept his spirit pressure low. Just in case he needed to do a sneak attack.
Though, he could near feel any presence of a hollow. Though the winds, made Legato think otherwise. There was a chance he found himself a bad egg of a soul reaper. If that is case, he would need to ask for division 6 to take care of it. If it turns out to be the case, of course. Legato turned at the corner and had waited. He looked over and sees a soul reaper. The soul reaper looked prepare to fight. However, Legato couldn’t see what he was looking at from this distance. Legato waited and see what will happen.
ooc: tired lol

A large Hollow, that's sheet white, has a freakishly long tail, and certainly not very friendly (when are they ever?). Kisuke watched it for a few moments, wondering in the back of his head how to approach it without getting himself torn to shreds by the spikes on its tail. 'If I work this right, I can close the distance between us quickly and cut off the tail before he can react.' Or so was the plan, and it had a sound thought to it. Kisuke was a master of Hoho, so closing the distance, provided the thing's not too more powerful than him, would be easy. He just needed one shot at this and he could take down this Hollow quickly. Tensing slightly, Kisuke was on the move, using Shunpo in an instant and proceeded to close the distance between himself and the Hollow.
Inclining its head up, it suddenly jumped up off all four limbs into the air, just a moment before Kisuke appeared, having cut through the air while its tail had been before. A look of shock plastered his face as he then looked up to the building beside him, the creature stuck to it like a squirrel climbing up a tree, its claws digging into the steel. It turned its head toward Kisuke, and its red tongue slithered out delightfully, as if thinking about eating him. Kisuke held no such thoughts in his head, only thinking of what to do now since he can't close the distance between himself and this creature. Another second went past before it lepta forcefully from the building and down toward the ground, intending to crush Kisuke with its weight. He jumped to the side just in time to avoid the attack, landing in a crouched position.
Unfortunately for him, the tail of the creature whipped out from behind it, and swung from the side toward Kisuke. He barely had time to react, standing up and taking a step back just as the spikes caught on his Shihakusho, tearing the front open. He didn't let himself miss this opening though, swiftly raising and bringing his katana down on the tail, cutting through it and causing blood to erupt forth. The Hollow screamed in pain and in a wild motion, turned around swiftly, flailing its arms about and crashing one into Kisuke, sending him flying against a building, and cracking it, before falling to the ground. He groaned from the pain, and had one eye open in strain. So much for that plan. The creature was distracted though from its agony, having almost its tail cut completely off. With a sigh and shrug, he stood up from his place and preformed Shunpo again, closing the distance again between them. He didn't miss this time, and cut through the tail completely, farther toward the base this time and the Hollow screamed in fury. |

Legato eyes gazed upon the scene before him. The actors of this scene, one is soul reaper and the other is a hollow. At first, Legato figure he would just sit back and watch the scene as an observer, being only an audience member as the two actors play their scene. However, Legato would only watch for so long before his scene would appear and he would have to enter himself. Though, it was all about timing of entering himself into this scene.
Entering too early could cause Legato destruction. Entering too late could possible end of the soul reaper actor. Legato reach into his pocket and taken a single soul candy to exit his gigai, Legato then made his gigai to move away from the scene. Legato kept his pressure low as possible and kept watching. Thinking to himself, “when should I go in? Now, no it still too early, moving now would only hold the soul reaper back. Need to pace myself”.
Finally, he sense the time was coming soon. Legato quickly jumped to the top of the building and position himself to the edge of the building. Now he watched down to the scene thought how should he do this. Chantless could also catch the soul reaper off guard and end up hitting him with my attack by mistake, best to catch both of their attention quickly as possible. The soul reaper should realize what I am doing with the chant and move out of the way.
Legato gathers his reiatsu into the palm of his right hand, extending his palm forward. Legato then places his left hand on his wrist, wrapping his fingers around it. Legato then gather the reiatsu into a ball of energy floating in front of the palm. Legato took a deep breath and yell out ”Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south! Hado no Sanjuuichi: Shakkahō!” Legato then releases his ball of red energy forward like a cannon-ball toward the large hollow body!

Kisuke was wondering at this point what to do now. He was getting tired, and having used two Shunpo in less than five minutes wasn't helping matters with him. He couldn't exactly figure out what to do exactly now that he had taken the Hollow's tail off as he had. With one possible means of attack no longer existing, it was likely going to be pissed and turn its attention on whoever had attacked it. ”Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man!" As Kisuke heard these words uttered aloud, he turned his head to a building nearby, looking up at the top to see another Shinigami, a red ball of energy just in front of his palm. Kisuke knew well what it was that was being performed and a sudden thought occurred to him the next second. With the beast distracted, it was probably best to take it out now with what he could do.
Lifting up his left hand, his index and middle fingers were raised and pointed toward the creature, the rest of his hand clenched. He didn't want to use up a lot more of his energy, so best to just stick with the basics. "White chariot! Blue soldiers, rustled leaves, thirteen black clouds, unleash the sky! Hado no Yon: Byakurai!" Kisuke unleashed the incantation and a white lightning fired from his finger tip just as the other Shinigami released his Shakkaho, the red ball launching like a cannon toward the Hollow. They both hit on impact and dust and rubble shot up together, covering the clearing. "Thank goodness for...that..." Just as Kisuke was about to relax, a reiatsu suddenly blanketed the area, catching him by surprise. The Hollow's presence was fully unleashed, and the dust cloud was suddenly whipped away as the Hollow's reiatsu pressed it down.
Atop a statue of rock, it was different this time. The statue was not just rock but the skin of the Hollow it shed before being attacked, pearl white and in pieces. Now before them was the same creature, but its skin was blood red and dripping with it, evident of having shed. The white skin before wasn't just skin, but a cocoon that enveloped its body and suppressed its reiatsu: the reason why Kisuke's phone didn't go off when it was near! Now that it was free from its prison, it had black eyes atop its head to see, and it glared around hungrily. What was even worse was the new tail that now hung in the back, fully grown! Looking up with its beady eyes, it locked sight on Legato and jumped straight toward him in the same instant, claws and teeth opened wide to tear him apart! |

Legato let out a small sigh in relief. The hollow is so weak that it has no spirit pressure to be sensed, Legato thought. Legato, looked at the smoke from the two soul reaper attacks. Of course it’s gone now, after all. It was done perfectly, Legato thought again. Legato face made a small grin, being pleased with himself. Legato looked down and noticed the other soul reaper was also in some relief. Legato prepared himself to jump down, but suddenly he started to feel some spirit pressure.
The spiritual pressure caused the dust cloud to be wiped away with ease. “I see. What we destroyed was basically its shield. It shield caused its spirit pressure to be unnoticeable. Now its time to break its blade,” Legato said to himself. Legato wanted to make this as quick as possible, showing no mercy to the hollow. Legato watched the hollow leap forward to him. Legato quickly jumped back from feet to make some space between the two. Legato then quickly gathered his energy around the hollow’s legs, and then extended his hand out towards the unnamed hollow and wrapped around its legs.
If it all goes the way Legato wants to, the hollow would trip over onto the ground. Even if it broke out of it right away. Chances are, it will still lose its balance and be caught off guard from an invisible attack. Then, with Legato’s free hand, he would gather a tiny amount of reiatsu to the fingertip of his index finger, extending it outward along with the middle finger. The other fingers are folded into the palm.
Legato then lays the palm of his off-hand face-down on the wrist of his other hand. Then, Legato shoots out a blue-like lightning beam towards the hollow’s head. Hopefully creating a hole into the hollow head if it lands, and hopefully ending here and now. “Die at my perfection”, yells Legato. If things all do what Legato wants and ends, Legato would then jump down from the building and walk towards the fellow soul reaper. Then, he would greet her with his name and division.
Both are chantless and at 90 percent power.

Everything went exactly as Legato planned. The hollow fell easily by Legato’s Kido attacks. Legato had no more interest in this area. Not to this soul reaper or anything else. Legato was dirty slightly from the dust cloud after his attack. Legato dusted himself off, feeling disgusted with himself for letting himself get too close to the hollow to get hit by the dust cloud. It was really an annoying thing. ”If not one thing, it’s another,” Legato said to himself.
Legato brushed his hand into his hair to make sure no dust gotten in it. Legato thinking about taking a bath and make himself perfectly clean once he arrived home. “Human world is so much easier to bath than the soul society,” said Legato to himself again. Legato walked over to the edge of the building and looked down. To normal people, this would be high up and a fall from a 5 story build would be almost instant death.
For Legato, however, it was simply going to be like jumping a curb and move on like nothing happened. This height was simple and nothing impressive. Legato took one more step over off of the building. Gracefully falling off of the cliff, and as he landed, he made a loud thud sound. Legato switched to his Gigai body quickly and made his way to his home the soul society provided for soul reapers while in the human world. Legato hoped no more hollows would appear, it would turn to slight annoyance to a big annoyance.
