That big guy that came to her Harbor was an interesting one. Not something that had the power she'd expect from something that size, but interesting none the less. These mutation hollows were something she was rather fascinated by. So, with some work from her friends, she got herself an empowered Gikon, something that had the same capacity as a thousand Souls, and being so saturated with her Resolve Flame, it would certainly help the Hollow overcome it's base nature, at least for a little while. Long enough for Ulv to help them. She knew what Colin was saying, that they were dangerous creatures, but Ulv wasn't going to treat them like they weren't.

She had her Hollow Mask on, and was suppressing her reiatsu output. The two together would make it very easy to think that she was some sort of Hollow or Arrancar. Which would help people wanting to dog-pile an 'Invading Shinigami'.

"So, where are you, big guy? This place is really huge but you are too. Can't be that hard to find you" she muttered, looking about the endless desert and wondering if this place ever had a day time...

Tyrant Hunger lay slumbering underneath the sands of Hueco Mundo. It had burrowed under the sand, treating the dunes that it had resting atop its segmented mask shell like a blanket. Rest, one of the few reprieves it had against its monstrous appetite. For a little while longer, sleep allowed Tyrant Hunger to ignore the need to feast on something. Scratches, gashes, and cracks ran across the humongous Hollow's body, the result of trying to gorge on a Hollow that was league's stronger than it. When it had become clear that Tyrant Hunger wasn't going to be eating its prey it had turned tail and ran, miserable and starving.

There was a sudden change in the still sands that Tyrant Hunger had buried itself under. It could feel the sudden shift of sands brought only by the presence of something. Its eyes snapped awake and the dune it had been under barely had time to tremble before the Hollow moved. Sand burst upwards like a geyser and Tyrant Hunger lunged with its gaping maw ready to snap shut on the Hollow that had presented itself to it.

Ahh, there he was. Bursting out from the dunes like a giant sand-shark, Tyrant was certainly a spooky kind of figure for somehollow that might just be walking along. But Ulv was looking for him specifically, so when the ground erupted, she used her Shunpo - easier than her usual movement speed, if slower - to get out of his eating path, and in her place left the Gikon to be eaten. With the power stored in the small pill, it would certainly be quite the venerable feast for Tyrant, and with the power embedded into it, the raging hunger would not only be sated, but also quelled, if only for a period of time.

"So, are you the kind of Hollow that is totally brain-dead driven to your goal or can you talk when not hungry?" Ulv asked, ready to be elsewhere if he wasn't satisfied with 1,000 souls equivalent. Wind danced around her feet and tussled her hear as she pre-empted it's use in preparation. She couldn't use her reiatsu or someone might twig she isn't who she says she is, but other than that, Ulv was still quite the strong combatant in most situations. So the loss of spiritual power wasn't a major issue.

The monstrous maw of Tyrant Hunger snapped shut on sand and something small. There was no need to chew, the entire mouthful pouring down into its gullet even before his jaws had fully shut. The massive Hollow looked around wildly in search of the prey it had missed lifting its head and letting whatever sand that hadn't been caught in the bite to flow off its lower jaw. It heard a series of sounds and turned to look at the source of it, finding the prey it had missed. It didn't understand what it was saying but roared in response, taking a step forward to lunge at her once again.

And all at once everything stopped for Tyrant Hunger The sole driving force behind the behemoth, the undying hunger of the dinosaur-like Hollow had been abruptly fulfilled. No it was more than filled, for the first time in an eternity Tyrant Hunger felt near to bursting from a full stomach, or whatever the closest equivalent a Hollow like it could feel. Its movements halted and it became as still as a statue. It felt nothing, no drive, no desire, no purpose, the Hollow collapsed upon the desert sands, confused and completely lost. A low growl rang out, comparable to a whine from a lesser animal.

Well, that was certainly surprising. Ulv had thought for a moment that the hunger was eternal and all-consuming, and that even her Resolve Gikon would not give him what he needed. But it did, and without the hunger driving it, the creature hand no desires at all. Instead, just slumping in front of her and whining. Still, it was good that there was no combat from this creature, she didn't want to start a helping hand by punching it in the face. So when it flopped, Ulv walked over to the beast, amber lines of power crawling up her arms and shining brightly.

The power of her "Muscle Hugs" Tulpa was not something that could be comprehended easily. Her normal Tulpas were of exceptional power due to her mind like a million mountains, and this was the purest, most concentrated Tulpa she had. It would give the creature a great deal of desire to get out and improve itself, and thus improve others in the same breath. A drive to better all that it saw, and itself. A purpose of self-perfection. For the Tulpa of Ulv was something akin to the greatest powers of other comparable forces.

Tyrant Hunger stared at the approaching Hollow with dead eyes. For a while that was all it did having never experienced anyone approach it so willingly in such a manner. "Grrr..." Suddenly it growled as it began to pick itself up. There had been someone else that Tyrant didn't respond to by immediately trying to eat them. A girl that visited it everyday when it was much smaller. New feelings emerged from the emptiness, chief among them was pain and loss. The moment that its fangs closed on the already dying girl's body, once a memory faded and forgotten because of the hunger, had brought itself to the forefront of its thoughts.

With an anguished howl the Hollow brought itself standing to its full height. It called upon the power that the Hollow had just fed it and fired a Cero Buster into a nearby dune. Then it fired another and another. It didn't want to remember, it refused to. It wanted the hunger to return to drown out the pain and suppress the memories it had of its first and only friend. Tyrant Hunger then started to aim down and began to charge a Cero buster aimed at itself.

A return of emotion came with it, pain and loss. Ulv's exceptional empathic abilities were well capable of sensing them asthey came into his heart. but her Resolve Flame was no so simple. It was not a thing to back down in the face of adversity. And so while he fired off his ceros in desperation of this new emotion, her Flame crackled and warmed the heart, lighting up the Abyss and displaying a new path which it could go down. There was always the path of despair, to look upon the past and feel raw because of what had happened.

But, then there was the other path. The path of the Future. While the Hollow could mourn the passing of their friend, there was always the other path, the path in which they enshrined the memory of their friend most tightly in their mind and lived for them. Made every day a day in which they passionately perused progress and betterment for all. Riding the memory like a grand steed into the rising sun of Hope. Of course, her Flame was no manipulation or control. It was merely a suggestion, and if the Tyrant did not wish to follow such a suggestion, it would have no effect at all.

The Cero began to grow larger the longer that Tyrant Hunger held and fed it power. All the pain and sorrow that had been festering for far too long being too much for it to bear. Just as it was to fire on itself a sudden wave of relief and warmth washed over it. The Hollow was doing something to it and Tyrant Hunger turned to stare at them. It allowed the Cero to fizzle out of existence as it maintained eye contact. Whatever the other Hollow was doing it was helping little by little, though it could not understand exactly what they were doing.

Tyrant Hunger began to want. It wanted to not be a monster driven by hunger. It wanted to do more than what its hunger dictated it to do. To be more than just a thing with legs and claws and teeth that roamed the worlds for a meal. Tyrant Hunger curled in front of the the other Hollow and grunted. It was its own way of answering, by allowing the Hollow to do as it wanted unimpeded.

ULV AUBER | THE BURNING HEART

He calmed, finally. This, was good. Ulv didn't want to have to grant him a peaceful death. She much preferred progress and forward motion. It was this that set her apart from Stefan, who seemed to focus on the concept of dying gloriously rather than living to aid others. Or maybe he just didn't like the idea of aiding others. Whatever the case, Ulv reached out to place her hands on the Tyrant again, and this time a new power came. Ulv's eyes flashed a deep amber, her body seemed to erupt into flames, and her reiatsu exploded, covering millions of square miles from where she was stood.

Such a thing would definitely alert a colossal horde of Hollows, but she felt it was something that needed to be done. The risk was well worth it. Infusing the Tyrant with her power and her Flame, Ulv's Devil Heart grasped reality and punched it in the throat, twisting and ripping causality with it's supercharged manifestation powers. Using this, Ulv would give the Hollow the power to surmount their hunger, and the ability to peruse the goals of new life without being waylaid by such issues. Though Ulv herself was not sure what form this power would take...

Tyrant Hunger let the what the Hollow in front of it was using wash over it. It remained still as whatever it was doing to it went underway. The Hollow's flesh slowly began to petrify, starting from the parts closest to the other Hollow and spreading up to the top of every spike on its body. Tyrant Hunger's body became akin to rough stone, gray and hardened. Cracks began to form all over its petrified body, large networks of miniscule lines running up and down the Hollow. The body began to crumble inwards, filling in a sudden empty space where the rest of its body used to be.

Tyrant Hunger's eyes fluttered open and took in the sight in front of it. It was sitting in the middle of unidentifiable debris that was slowly eroding into more sand. The Hollow that had fed it was a bit further than where it last saw it. They were also much larger than they remembered, it was sure that it towered over them before but now they towered over it. Attempting to stand made it pause as the movements it used to stand felt different, it couldn't feel its tail at all. It sat back down and looked to the Hollow for instructions.
