Ten Months... Forty-something weeks passed at what seemed to be the blink of an eye. To the Arrancar, the days here seemed to have passed much faster than he would have anticipated, compared to the ever present night that seemed to encompass his stomping ground. To the denizens of District #58, "Asagiri" as he had become known as, had managed to gather very little intel about the inner workings of the Seireitei, save for the flux's in spiritual pressure that would radiate outward. Much to his surprise, not a single Shinigami would have come to investigate the steady signature of hollow reiatsu.

Though to say the reiatsu that was radiating from the Rukongai was "Asagiri's" would be a fallacy. In fact, even before he opened the garganta his spiritual presence had been withdrawn to the point that he was practically invisible. The surrogate Shinigami acted as a beacon, taking in everything, in terms of reiatsu, and what little information he could gather from the locals. Much to his own surprise the citizens of Rukongai possessed a hatred for the Shinigami that rivaled in comparison to the Hollow as a race, if only he were able to meet with promising individuals of whom he could potentially sway to joining his cause.

"Yo! Asagiri! Headed back into the woods again today? Takayama is looking to people to play a game!"
Turning to face the rugged dressed boy, of whom Kuvello had come to know as Saito. The arrancar dressed in a shuhakusho would smile as he nodded to the boy's question.

"That's right, I'm still waiting to hear from my friends, to see if they'll be joining us, or if they need me to return."




As if by clock-work, every day during this Ten Month "Excursion" as he had come to call it, the Arrancar would have made a daily trip into the woods to not only make sure his clothes hadn't been discovered, but to also meet with one of his associates who took the time out of their duties to relay messages to and from Hueco Mundo. The initial idea was for the portals he had partitioned in both World of the Living, in Hueco Mundo would be distressing enough to get the attention of the Seireitei to shift their attention to Hueco while he and his underlings, former fracción, invaded Rukongai to stir that much more chaos, however no more than a few days in, it seemed that his original plan had fallen apart, as very few individuals came to investigate. From word of mouth, only a handful of Shinigami arrived into the world of living to investigate, and every hollow within La Soberanía was concerned for being the blame for such an elaborate scheme. So much so that even Estarossa himself left to meet with the Shinigami scourge to prove their innocence.

The need for hollows to lick the boot of the Shinigami left a sour taste in Kuvello's mouth, once upon a time the strength of Las Noches was a force to be reckoned with, so much so that the Shinigami took it upon themselves to wipe out the organization all together. Though it seemed that during this whole scheme, another party was taking advantage of the chaos and seeing to their own ideals, as an unknown hollow arrived in Katakura Town. It had been nine and a half months since he closed and ordered the closure of the Garganta and Kūmon (空門, Air Gate; Viz "Sky Ridge") from the worlds. His prowess and leadership had proved their point, but now would be the time to reconvene with his underlings and supporters to begin recruiting. The need for the return of Las Noches was ever apparent, and with it a new regime of leadership.




As the Arrancar made his way into the shaded area of the forest, the canopy of the trees casted rays of sunlight through the breaks in the foliage onto the ground beneath. His eyes focused on a area on bark of a tree, as a space-time distortion seemed to cut a polygonal portal into Hueco Mundo. A silhouette of a figure would come into view as Kuvello, or "Asagiri" performed Descorrer (解空デスコレール, Desukorēru; Spanish for "Drawing Back/Opening", Japanese for "Loosed Void") as the portal grew larger now providing a wider angle of the shadow figure of which he would begin speaking to.

"Well it's been a while since you and I last spoke, I take it all is well?"

"Indeed it has been, and it's been eerily quiet, we haven't had any intel from our 'friends' in La Soberanía, and it seems the activity within the Human World has lightened up drastically. Which can either mean Shinigami patrols have increased, or another force within Hueco is emerging, I'll continue to keep you posted mi-lord."

"See to it that you do, I can't imagine I'll be staying here much longer, the reservoir is drying up more and more with each passing d-"

The sound of a twig snapping from behind would cause the arrancar to go silent as his sentence was cut off, and without even bothering to save face, nor giving a chance for the potential intruder to explain themselves, the small garganta would blip out of existence as it became a single black vector then shrank out of sight. Using his sonido, the Arrancar closed the short distance as he found his hands clasping around the curious teen's skull before rotating it a full three-hundred and sixty degree's.

This was not one of the usual kids of whom he hung around with, in fact he did not know the identity of this person, however he could not allow his true identity to be alluded to. Grabbing the corpse by his hair, the arrancar would perform yet another sonido, as his figure vanished all together, only to reappear in a clearing in the distance, of which he would toss the body onto a pile of decaying corpses. Discarding of the bodies like this would no doubt allude to a serial killer, but it would conceal his hollow nature no doubt, and because nobody had found him out yet, it was the perfect plan. How easily it would be to remain off the radar, and how easily it would be to shift the blame onto the neighboring "bandits" should anyone ask of the unfortunate soul's disappearance.

Flashing back to the tree line, the "Shinigami's" figure would flicker back into existence as he began to run back toward the village.

"Saito! Takayama! I'm back, from my meeting with the Captain! Looks like I'll be sticking around for a little while longer~"

Four had been moving for weeks on end, never stopping in its search for strange, weird, bad things to report back to Shibuya. It doesn't know what a hollow is, really, only able to vye for the vague feeling of understanding it received from its master.

It was enough, though, for it to finally find a strange, strange, straaaaaange boy. Dressed as a Shinigami, yet feels nothing like one– feels like nothing at all. Empty, void of anything to make him real aside from the physical form he totes and the voice he lets out toward other boys.
"Saito! Takayama! I'm back, from my meeting with the Captain! Looks like I'll be sticking around for a little while longer~"

Captain? That's not right, not at all. Four trails him, flattened along each surface it transfers to. Should the Not Shinigami stop, it will follow suit, appearing as nothing more than a splattering of ink in the shape of a Centipede. Whether he can sense it or not is questionable, as it is unaware of anything about this person beyond his appearance and the nothingness he is.​

Walking down the worn path from his 're-manifestation', Kuvello would look toward the village, his emerald eyes shifting in their sockets as he felt an uneasiness. In all of his time spent in these 10 months, the fluctuations of reiatsu from shinigami had been felt and cataloged based on threat potential. Though with no face nor name to match to said reiatsu signatures, the point of categorizing each individual was a fruitless venture. This time however was different.

This time, the uneasiness originated from the hollow's own paranoia. The feeling of being watched, he had just dispatched of a unknowing spy, only moments ago, and now the familiar sensation was upon him again. 'Asagiri' would feel a faint pressure from the ground near him, however the interloper would make no gestures or glances toward the inkling of spiritual pressure, rather the details that came with it would be noted within his mind.

Continuing his way, the arrancar's attention would begin to fragment, allowing an allotment for keeping tabs on the spiritual pressure as it would undoubtably follow him, small and tingly in nature. One could describe it like that of a crawling insect. No doubt a well thought out tactic, should the Arrancar's own reikaku and paranoia have not been dialed to the maximum that they were. Had it been anyone less aware, such a minor detail could've gone unchecked, however such tasks were not affordable to the former Espada.

As he made his way through the village gate, the visage of the 'shinigami' would disappear, as he moved fast and silently, the final stroke of relay the tracking spiritual pressure would see before being reduced to dust. In the movement of his sonido, the arrancar would dial into the centipede's location as he both identified and caught the insect midstride as the boy fired off a concentrated bala from his fingertip, reducing the area in which the black spot occupied, into a crater roughly the side of the boy's own head in circumference.

With this rather flashy and explosive display, the humanoid hollow would raise his gaze only to find himself having captured the attention of nearly everyone within his immediate surroundings. If the boy possessed a heart, the sound of it's palpitations would undoubtably flood his ears. A wave of ice would run down his spine, as if he was plunged into a spotlight. He would no longer be able to remain here, such was too much of a risk, if not for the tracker, but for word to get around of his sudden arrival and disappearance.

It was time.

The charade was over.

"Asagi-"

End the Facade

Before Saito was able to finish acknowledging him, the Arrancar moved toward the boy gripping the cheeks and jaw of the boy's skull, the grip of Kuvello dislocating and subsequently breaking the jaw of the boy his voice became muffled and then silenced in the same instance as Kuvello held the boy's limp body up, Saito having lost consciousness due to the sudden pain that inflicted him.

Dropping the boy's body, the Arrancar's eyes would widen as a twisted maniacal smile began to slowly etch it's way across his lips. The nagging hunger in the back of his mind had been chomping at the bit all of these Ten Months, and while he had gone for much longer without hunting or killing anyone, to be within the company of the denizens of Rukongai was equivalent to torture, such easy pickings, and yet he had to blend in.

No longer was such things necessary, no longer did he need to save face.

The tension in the air became palpable, as the fear of the on-lookers became realized.

In a flash, the Hollow vanished; the next second, blood curdling screams began.

Making use of his unusual zanpakuto, Kuvello would begin the final phase of his invasion:

The Erasure


Like that of a Master Angler, the Arrancar would begin casting his tackle forward, allowing the barbed hook of his zanpakuto to penetrate multiple citizens at once, effectively shish-ka-bobbing each and every soul his zanpakuto came across, before draining them of any reiryoku they may've possessed before rendering them into orbs, of which would remain clung to the barbed hook until plucked off by Kuvello. With each dozen souls lost, a madness within Kuvello would become more and more apparent, as the animalistic tendencies of the arrancar began to return to him once more.

Casually tossing the orb of harvested reiryoku, the Arrancar would gaze down upon his work, his white attire now cladded upon his figure, the entirety of a village slaughtered in no more than a brief moment, the ground soaked in blood, truly a diabolical sight, but such was a sight that entrusted his security. Clenching the orb of captured Reiryoku through the unique use, and skill of his zanpakuto, the Arrancar would begin to bite into the purple hued orb as his hunger became satiated, and his strength restored as he began to lick his lips, the taste was tart, as his mouth began to contort.

"Itadakimasu~"

Kuvello-Itadakimasu.jpg


Before shoving the final portion of the orb into his mouth, the Arrancar would tap the air next to him as he waved to the vacant destruction that he left behind him.
