Lawless Curiosity(Law/Ren)

Flying past the surgeon of death, Ren would find her gaze setting itself upon an otherworldly sight. There were numerous hollows roaring after and yet the tall man before her had loosed an electric current - so mighty in it's destruction - that it left every single one of them within ashes - all within the span of a second. Her mouth slightly ajar, she stared dumbfounded as she witnessed the event unfold right before her very eyes.

Taking a moment to clear her throat, she observed him with inquisitive eyes, analyzing the man from a distance. For all she knew, this could be the hero of the tale who rescued her from her previous predicament or an even more wicked beast than the ones chasing her before. Of course, if such was the case, he could've easily used that electric current to wipe her and the hollows away within a flash and kept walking.

Thankful that she wasn't a meal or ash, Ren would approach the man and bow before him respectfully. She ought to be gracious and introduce herself, right? To be certain, there was a twofold benefit in introducing herself, too. As one a seeker of knowledge and understanding the nature behind the supernatural, his ability stood out to her to such a degree that even if she wished to leave, she simply couldn't ignore what took place just now.

"First, allow me to express my gratitude for making quick work of those hollows who were trying to make me the subject of their afternoon snack. If it weren't for you, I would be dead right now. My name is Ren Matsumoto. That ability you displayed just now... was nothing short of amazing. May I know your name, sir?"

Ren wasn't particularly disheartened by the man's answer as he bluntly stated he felt like killing them on a whim. What a frightening answer. Unperturbed, Ren acknowledged his answer and continued to gaze at him with that same inquisitive glint in her eye. Law, huh? Well, thankfully his desire to kill just so happened to intertwine with her crossing paths with him. Even if his intent wasn't to rescue her, his whim still benefited her all the same.

Ren pondered his question as she softly swayed her head. She hadn't intended to be chased by a herd of hollows in a forest and normally operated with diligence in mind. Ren supposed that such was the danger of seeking and exploring the supernatural.

Any source of energy she may have taken an interest in exploring was just as privy to the eyes of others as they were her own. Yearning for the unknown presented it's own perils of uncertainty but Ren was not particularly the type to be intimidated by fear. It'd be a meaningless pursuit if she decided to call it quits over a few bad situations.

"Pleasure to meet ya, Law. Anyway, as I'm sure you are aware, Hollows tend to gravitate towards peculiar energy sources and spiritual energy. It just so happens that I was exploring and looking into the energy emanating within the forest as a means of sating both my curiosity and observing and analyzing it's source. Unfortunately, it just so happened that the same energy I found myself attracted to also attracted those hollows. Once they set their eyes on me, however, they decided I would make a far better meal."

She sighed softly as she stroked her chin, somewhat disappointed at the fact she couldn't conduct her studies in peace. Even so, Law seemed much more interesting in comparison. Few could erase hollows as quickly as he did.

"As they are now, my abilities aren't entirely built to defeat a wave of hollows but I didn't intend to find them here, either. Though my desire for learning the mechanics behind the supernatural and otherworldly are monumental, I typically make it a rule not to find myself on the receiving end of the chaos I found myself wrapped in just now."

What a peculiar turn of events. Ren was speaking with the tall man who had prevented her from turning into a hollow's meal and now a crimson-haired woman had arrived on the scene to order him to come back to the Gotei. Ren tilted her head in curiosity as she did a double take, listening to the woman's words with a measured focus.

He was formerly a member of the Gotei United? Ren hadn't really searched through enough files to know his name and she wasn't officially apart of a division yet, being a fresh graduate from the academy.

She needed to rectify that one of these days but for now, she observed this event as it unfolded, clearly in no position to step in and direct the conversation elsewhere. These two could crush her with their spirit pressure alone and be right on their merry way.

Ren valued her life and the goals she wished to achieve far too much to interject. Law turned down the crimson-haired woman rather bluntly, stating he had no intention whatsoever of returning to the Gotei. She wore an annoyed expression and gave him rather easily, turning around to leave and go off elsewhere. The curious researcher couldn't gauge Law's reaction but he was likely annoyed and she had no intent of dancing on any questions or mentions regarding the Gotei.

Thus, she gazed at him with purple eyes and kept her toes on the ready.

"That was.... interesting," she commented, running a few fingers through her hair. "She sure did just interrupt our conversation, hm?"
