Mysterious Hollow in France!

BLACKHORN

Strange reports of a Hollow killing, but not cannibalizing, other Hollows in the Paris area have made their way to the Gotei United. According to observers, this hulking beast's modus operandi has been to approach Hollows, having some way of detecting them at great distances, and then tear them apart brutally and efficiently. Afterward, it will move on to find another target, all while ignoring humans and even going out of its way to avoid serious collateral damage.

The most recent location the Hollow was spotted in is outside of Paris in an old abandoned town full of dilapidated and aging houses and buildings. Half of one of these crumbling buildings has been reduced to rubble with damage to its surroundings as well, indicating a battle of some kind. From this scene, a pathway of small craters barely recognizable as giant footprints stretches into the distance. It isn't clear how far these tracks extend or what lies at their end, but for those tasked with investigating these reports, it's where they start their adventure.

This was most certainly a peculiar situation. The details of the hollow's actions were strange. Against the imprint of habit and path for them. This hollow was hunting other hollows, not an uncommon thing . What was truly a mystery was that it wasn't eating! It left the bodies it killed. Not targeting humans either or souls chained down. It had no interest or dislike from it by the notes. Such a thing would be something liked if for the fact it did nothing to pass on the defeated souls of hollows. Even more so, the defeated lured the scavengers. A number of hollows trying to grab a piece of the pie if you will. Causing chaos and fear amongst the people.

Something that made the Gotei United move into action. Paper work, requests, and some time. And Tento was here as a preventive of the 4th division. If they were going to need fighters here he would be more than happy to be ready. Up above a hell butterfly appeared, accompanied by a brown skinned shinigami with a soft friendly smirk on his face. A very contrasting thing from what his mind wanted to do against the cold air. He really just wanted to cuddle up and be wrapped up!

"Hello madam", Tento greeted in a sing song low voice trying not to be too loud. Carefree in expression but alter in mind as his eyes looked over the area as well. The details of movements and fights not being cloudy to him. Nor the size of the giant footprint.

In addition to large footprints leading away from their location, Hollow blood had also seeped into the ground and painted pieces of wood and stone jutting from the destroyed building a dark crimson. Further evidence of a struggle was indicated by charring covering different sections of the house and rubble, though it was not widespread enough to indicate a fire.

Traces of Reiatsu also lingered in the area from two distinct sources, both appearing to have been Hollows. However, upon closer inspection, a talented spiritual sensor might notice one of them would feel strange, unsettling almost, and seemed to contrast the other. Due to the length of time that had passed since the fight, it would be impossible to discern the exact cause of the Reiatsu's peculiarity unfortunately.

As the bitter cold bites at the party, light snowfall would also begin showering the area. It wouldn't take long for the thick snowflakes to begin accumulating, obscuring all, including the footprints, beneath a blanket of white.

Yep! Seemed like the team was all here, from what he was told Tento would be working with two people today. Ah. And pretty ladies~. They were strong! The spiritual energy nesting within them in just this tranquil state was clear to him; they were on a level beyond him when it came to the energy they could put out. He was new...so no duh. But such a thing he noted immediately as a warrior and member of the combat division. Oh how skilled were they in their specialties he wondered! He had a grin on his face, happy and content in this situation from the start. Strong ladies, interesting situation, and a mystery to investigate; what more could a guy want? He lifted his right hand, giving a friendly soft wave side to side in response to Beetle's physical greeting.

He looked around still before settling on the soft brown haired comrade before him. Following her words with a focus. Generally things but simple and good to get out of the way. He was wondering how she could tell that that piece of damage on the building was recent. She was most certainly right though, they had fast work to do.


"I didn't get your name and whatnot, though! For me, Beetle Yuudeshi, Eighth Division! Nice to meet you two!"

Oh dear. It seemed that Tento made a whoppsie, a fact that was clear to tell that he had realized right at the moment of Beetle speaking to him. He reached up, scratching the back of his head in a laidback motion as a cheesy grin came to his face. "Hehe. Ah sorry. Nice to meet you Ms. Yuudeshi", Tento began before giving a short bow. "I forgot to say my name due to taking in the sight. Tento Zefa; 15th seat of the Fourth Division".

With proper introductions being fully done now, Tento stood by his spot alongside his two comrades. The unknown beginning of this investigation being under its way. As a person who aimed to keep a well armed set of abilities required for the duty of a Shinigami. Such a thing was impossibly fully though, he was still a baby soul in the world that filled itself and thrived around him. Many comrades had an unimaginable amount of time on him, and knew things naturally far better than he. One such thing that he was still getting better at letting become second nature, was sensing energy. He could feel it yes. And thanks to his prior mission with Lerna of the 7th division. Tento had gotten more aware of these things. Using the spiritual energy in the air and environment to pin point creatures and objects. The thing is....he was still a novice at it in truth.

He felt those two hollow reiatsu signatures; but call it from a lack of experience or knowledge to look for. And what not to expect, well. It felt normal to him mostly. So he was unbothered by this factor when Kaminor looked upto the sky, held a hand out, and erected a large barrier over the area they were in. A thing that Tento let out a happy sigh from. It felt nice to stop the flow of snow on his head. The dome coming wide and far, covering 100 feet around her. "Three minutes, got it", he said floating down to get a closer look at the scene. Kaminari was going to look at the footprint it seemed and so, Tento would look at the ground. Eyeing for anything that could be amiss.

He didn't say anything at the start of Kaminari's question. Or Beetle's answer. Not out of a mood of being unsociable or being busy look. He just did not feel that anything was different with them. He was not sure still on feeling between the classes of an Gillian or Adjuchas level hollow. The few things he really knew were that of the Hollow energy of an Arrancar, and perhaps what he could expect of an Espada. Such beings were of a lower level than these and so Tento could at least say that these Hollows should be manageable with this team. Still far tough for him though.

"I am not getting any clues over here...", he said eyeing the ground one last time before gazing up at the details that could be looked at. Charred building, lingering blood dried up. Pieces of a large image that he wished they could get before going forward. He wondered what made these two hollows come here. Fight here? "Well. Things are simple here, with no signs of an lingering effect to the environment nor people around. We don't have to worry about this place, at least right now", Tento said turning fully towards Beetle and Kaminari. "So our best bet in getting this figured out is to follow that trail and see what happened".
