[@Phobos][@AbigailTenshi] [Center][h3][b][color=f26522]Shinzo Harimaya[/color][/b][/h3][/center] Shinzo nodded at Nairins response then heard the Captain tell them to enter. Shinzo took a deep breath then opened the door and walked infront of the Captains desk and gave a light bow as he waited for Nairin to take her place before speaking "[color=f26522]Well we're back from the mission and unfortunately it's bad news. We quite frankly failed the mission...it seems we lacked co-ordination and this lead to things getting worse. However I feel that after this experience that next time we will put our individual pride and ego's aside and work as one effective unit. Yet I do not feel this is the only reason for the missions failure...I feel that even if we had worked as one unit that we would have still been overwhelmed as the nest of hollows was drastically more than expected...[/color]" Shinzo then took a deep breath before speaking once again "[color=f26522]To start the mission was rather messed up from the get go...I understand this isn't what you want to hear but it's better to be honest to you then lie about how bad things were. Arriving at the location was fine yet once I arrived Aya had took off in one direction and Nairin in another...I felt it was more important to follow Nairin as she was the new recruit and someone had to evaluate her and so I took that duty upon myself. Where Aya went off to was unknown but I couldn't pursue both and by the time I got to Nairin, Aya was out of my area of sense...I couldn't feel her spiritual energy. However. What I saw of Nairin was good, she handles herself well...to say she used only her sealed Zanpakuto she performed better than I had expected. Yet the mission really went downhill when we discovered the hollow nest...as far as I could tell Aya had made her way there alone and so we wasted no time jumping in yet we were still far off from her. We tried to cut down as many hollow as possible but the truth be told we were simply overwhelmed...there were far more than I was expecting. It seemed more like an army than a small nest...However we did what we could and thankfully I unlocked my Shikai during the mission yet I got caught up in the excitement of gaining my Shikai and took my eye off Nairin and when I looked back to see her she was overwhelmed by hollows and severely wounded...that I take full blame for...I immediately decided it'd be best to get Nairin and retreat to Squad 4. Before I did I had called out to Aya to ask her to retreat yet I cannot be sure if she ignored this or simply didn't hear the message. [/color]" Shinzo then rubbed the back of his head with his right hand before speaking once again "[color=f26522]And so I brought Nairin to Squad 4 to get her wounds healed immediately and after building up enough energy I returned to try see if Aya had retreated or not...unfortunately when I got there she had suffered serious injuries...one quite severe one...I got her out of there as soon as and rushed her to Squad 4 where I believe she is still being treated...I'd assume so after how serious the wound was. I apologise for the failure of the mission...yet we truly were overwhelmed...I think even a group of three high seated members would have struggled with what we faced so we were seriously underpowered when it came to facing that many hollow...[/color]" Shinzo then looked to Nairin to see if she was going to add anything yet he then looked back at the Captain...he knew they'd likely get shit for this...a lot of it...but still...he had to be honest and just hope the Captain would go easier on them just for that...
