[quote=Phobos] The group continued through the forest, the footsteps eventually stopping. Strangely enough, all hollows had vanished. It was as if they all ran and abandoned their home. It was great for their mission, but it still left an incredibly eerie feeling. Shoske tightened his grip on his zanpakuto, looking around for any subtle movements. Nothing but silence. After traveling down their path for a great time, without any interruptions, they had finally reached a massive bottomless pit. Behind it would their target. A giant boulder with a small piece of paper on it...But in front of it, was a small strange looking hollow. It was of humanoid shape and size, but with a massive spiritual pressure. It wore a human's clothing, and resembled a human in every way. The only difference was its hollow-like face and the monstrous spiritual pressure it let off. It let out a hollow roar, warning the small group of shinigamis to return or face the consequences. It stared at them intensely, fire emitting from its soulless eyes. [/quote] As they continued to head through the forest things seemed to quieten down which was good but also seemingly off for a place filled with hollow but as he thought this Kaizo had to stop due to a bottomless pit then beyond that he noticed a large boulder with a small piece of paper on it which meant they were where they needed to be but there was a problem..a big one...a hollow was guarding it and this can't have been a normal one as it's spiritual energy was massive and it's spiritual pressure equally as great then the hollow let out a roar which caused Kaizo to turn to the rest of the group then speak "Well...we came here to do a mission but I'm not going to make us do anything stupid on the account of a bad call by myself...then again I'm not going to say we retreat and give up easily when something difficult comes our way and as my decision either way effects your lives and my own I have to ask you what you all want to do. We can fight it...not saying we will win...but we may just make it out alive...or...we can run. as it stands...I'm willing to give my life for the sake of the mission...as a member of Squad 2 and a Shinigami it'd be a disgrace to both if I were to run...if anyone wants to go they can but I'm staying..." As Kaizo said this his voice carried a serious tone...he was ready to die doing his job...something a lot of Shinigami lacked in this day and age
