Exploring a forest or blowing stuff up? Ether is fine.(Andrew)

Appearance:

Eban had never been to Karakura before and had always wanted to visit but never could. Now that he was in the Gotei 13 though he finally had the opportunity. Unfortunately because of his low rank he wasn't able to get exactly what he wanted. Instead of the city he was stuck in the forest doing a patrol. It wasn't exactly what he wanted but at the same time he didn't have any choice in it. Standing outside of his entrance to Karakura forest he walked through the portal and on the other side it opened up to the most southern side of the forest.

As soon as he stepped out the first thing that hit him was the smell of the trees. The air that struck him from the forest was extremely refreshing. The wind was whipping across his body as all that could be heard was the whistle of the wind and the brush of the trees. Compared to the Soul Society it had a different feel to it. A good feel. It was something that Eban enjoyed.

His objective was to scout the forest for any possible threats and eliminate them. At a brisk pace he walked forward and kept an eye out for any Hollows or other threats. Scouting the area he was excited for his first real mission, but it was difficult for him to pay much attention to the forest when he wanted to explore the city. The amazing Karakura City had so much within it that he felt like he really wanted to explore. So he decided to attract what he could and finish it.He released what small spirit pressure that he had so as to attract what he could. This may have been childish, but to him it was waayyyy better then scouting an entire forest.

He waited for a few moments, and even though his spiritual pressure wasn't strong it was stronger then the wondering spirits in the area. With in a few minutes three hollows could be seen approaching him. Two from his front each beast like in nature on four legs and the one to his right was standing on two legs.

With his special training from his captain he had a uniqueness about his Kido. It wasn't restricted by number, just the strength he decided to put into it. It was a unique aspect he had been taught that changed the way he looked at Kido. Changed his use of Kido completely. He first pointed his pointer and middle finger at the hollow to his right and even though it took him a few moments to accumulate the power it would need to take out the hollow he did it and blew through the upper torso of the hollow to the right of him killing it.

Even though this play was meant to allow him to kill the hollow it also allowed the other two to get extremely close to him. They were ripping through trees like they were toothpicks and were only 15 meters away. If he didn't stop them he might not make it out of here, and hollows would kill many more.

"And another hollow taken care of."

Andrew cracked his neck, hearing another hollow's roar as he turned his attention to the distance. It seemed that the fight was far from over yet. He started to walk through the forest once again, sinking his teeth into a donut that he had brought with him as his breakfast as he felt the presence of more hollows in the distance. And from what he had been noticing there might be a shinigami that needed some help. As he walked, he saw the shinigami with two hollows that started to get close to him. Andrew took a deep breath as he then clapped his hands. "Hey! How about you get off that appetizer and head straight for the main course?!" His reiatsu spiked slightly to force the hollow's attention to get focused on him. The hollows turned to face him, roaring in unison as he got his sword ready. As he kept his eyes on the shinigami, he gave him a look to brace himself for the next move as he drew his sword.

Andrew started to build up reiatsu again as the hollows charged straight for him before Andrew spoke once again. "Hadō 41, Geruto Oshii!" He swung his blade hard, using the large gust of wind against the hollows to knock them back. As he watched the creatures fly in the air, he turned his attention to the shinigami again as he spoke. "I'll get one you get the other," he said before turning his attention to one of the hollows he threw aside. He was going to do his best to keep not only the hollows at bay but also make sure that the shinigami is safe. In the end of the day it was to him about karma. He wanted to help him out.

Eban was curious as to who this was. He wasn't told of any other shinigami that were stationed here, and when the man released some of his spiritual energy he clearly trumped Eban. It clearly took the hollows attention away from him, which was a relief, but at the same time he came here to do a job, and he needed to do his best in order to help. He started to focus on forming his energy for another large Hadō 4, but as he did the Hollow's flew by him as a massive wind thrashed through the forest. He was knocked over easily by this strong Hadō, but he rolled to his stomach facing the hollows as they started to charge back a the two.

The man spoke to Eban as he stood up. The Hadō hadn't hurt him just surprised him, and knocked him over. He asked a question and there wasn't anything else he could say, but

"Lets do this!"

Because they were gaining quickly he wouldn't have much of an ability to do a giant blast like he would like to. So this fight would have to be won by tactics. He placed his hands forward and waited until the hollow was close enough and then with a quick and steady chant created a 5x5 shield placed a few meters in front of him diagonally tilted towards the hollow. He then began to run on it right as the hollow was within a few meters of the panel. Eban then jumped into the air as the Hollow crashed into and destroyed his panel and pointed his left hand at the hollow

"Disintegrate, you black dog of Rondanini!! Look upon yourself with horror and tear out your own throat!"

He then shot a yellow tendril around the neck of the hollow while unsheathing his Zanpakutō with his opposite hand. He yanked himself at the hollow in mid-air and with his Zanpakutō in his right hand he stabbed it through the middle of it's torso and twisted purifying the hollow

That's right, keep your attention on me hollow.

Andrew's reiatsu began to rise, making himself a much more enticing target for the second hollow as it started to growl at him once again. He didn't see a need to use his shikai given the strength of the hollow's reiatsu but he still needed to finish this fight pretty quick so that the other shinigami didn't need to worry about dealing with the remaining hollow. He watched the kidou being used against the other hollow as he then pointed his finger at the one charging straight at him. As the hollow took to the air, Andrew took a breath and said softly,"Hadō 33, Sōkatsui." A large burst of blue flames shot from his finger, immediately engulfing the hollow and as it howled in pain, the vizard went in for the finishing blow and destroyed the mask of the hollow to purify the fallen creature.

Watching the hollow vanish for a moment, his attention was turned to the shinigami that he had helped. He walked over to him, wondering about his status as he looked with concern in his eyes. "Hey, how are you holding up?" His eyes started to scan around, keeping his wits about him as he kept his attention everywhere around them. He had a feeling there were other hollows around and it was better for him to keep his attention on everything that could happen. His attention then went back to the shinigami again, his eyes carefully examining to see if he was worse for wear.

Eban watched as the guy easily dispatched the hollow with what he recognized as a lower mid level Hadō. It was curious that someone this strong was around here without him being notified of it. Especially him being seemingly a Shinigami. He was extremely thankful that this guy who saved his life, but at the same time he was curious as to why he was here. First things first though he had to give gratitude.

"Thank you for saving me back there. That was a close one. My name is Eban Alexander it is nice to meet you. What is your name?"

His mission had brought him to this point, but now someone had presented themselves who was strong. Who protected with their strength. Something that Eban envied. He barely had the strength to protect himself, so being able to protect others with his strength at this point is a joke in his opinion. His dream was to one day have the strength to protect the ones he cared for. Though he did not see how he would be able to, he was determined to find some way to achieve that strength.

Eban kept his left hand on his sheath just in case he might have to act again. These forests could be dangerous and with such a powerful person around it may attract unwanted attention from hollows or worse.
