[u]Rio Okotaru Darishimo[/u]

Rio continued to run closer and closer towards the Seireitei, her thoughts occupied with how she could get stronger without her Zanpakuto's considering the fact that they refused to help her. [i]'Limit? That's impossible... This much power is not my limit no matter what they say.... It can't be true,...I WILL NOT LET IT BE TRUE! I NEED POWER TO FIND KAIZO!'[/i] Her eyes became ferice with determination, her mind settling on paying a visit to her Captain. [i]'He'll be able to help me'[/i].

She entered the Seireitei, booming through the pathways towards Squad six when she was stopped by bumping into a random shinigami in the way. "S-sorry ma'am!" Spoke the member, scrambling to pick up papers that he had dropped onto the floor. Rio had fell on her ass and glared at the member as a reflex but soon her eyes softened a touch and she stood, gathering up the rest of the papers to hand to him. [b]"Don't worry about it, just make sure you're aware of your surrounding at all times..."[/b] She didn't smile, still in a bit of a rush. The member bowed, revealing two other members behind him, a little bit further down the pathway. Rio paid no attention to these, until she noticed one of them staring at her in complete shock. [i]'What is his problem?'[/i] Her face held onto it's neutral state as she looked away, turning and about to take off before a hand in her hair forced her to stop.

[u]Fumio Hari Kouineji & Souta Fushimaru[/u]

Fumio continued to stare in shock. Her bluey-black her, plum eyes, porcelain skin and her trademark expression... [b]"Th-that's..."[/b] He whispered, Souta feeling uneasy about this entire situation knowing what would happen next. He chose to keep quiet however and let what was going to happen, happen... Fumio continued to watch the girl until it came to the point that the member she had bumped into had ran off, leaving only her. Her gaze directed at him, causing his heart to stop for a moment. After all of this time, she was right under his nose all along... Within the Gotei 13. He wasn't expecting the reaction he received... which was none. This caused his eyes to widen further and a small gasp to leave his lips. [b]"Yeah... I've seen her before... She looked right at me too... I don't think she know's who we are anymore..."[/b] Souta voiced quietly, a hint of sadness in his tone. But then, he looked to his left... Fumio was no where to be found.

[u]All three[/u]

[b]"UN!"[/b] Rio let out a noise in pain as her hair had been pulled to stop her from moving. [b]"[i]Do you know who I am [u]Huerona[/u]?...[/i]"[/b] Fumio seethed through grit teeth. [b]"Wha-!"[/b] [b]"KAZUHIKO!"[/b] He had shunpo'ed with Rio in his grip, leaving Souta behind. The latter stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop Fumio but was too late... They were already gone. [b]"DAMMIT!"[/b] Souta yelled, clenching his fists in rage. [b]"...Now now.. Just calm down Souta"[/b] The smell of applewood filled the area, causing Souta to look behind him... His eyes widening by the second. [b]"You..."[/b]
