What was she doing here? How did she get here? She doesn't even remember walking through her own gargantua completely of her choice and entered a place she had never been to before. Her curiosity always got the better of her but she always knew when enough was enough and to run away. However, when she walked through her gateway and appeared in this new world, she felt rather... well, good. Something about the air, the feel of the atmosphere itself lay good on her heart. There was an issue however: A gargantua could never track and pinpoint this world so easily. Did she miscalculate her trajectory and was sent spiralling off into a world she didn't mean to walk into? In fact, she wasn't even supposed to use Gargantua in fear the Espada would track her. But she had the urge to explore this place, and so she did.

This would be any normal exploration though. She wasn't stupid, so entering a new world on the back of a motorbike and speeding along the stone paths would be suicide. This place could be the enemy of her former mistress and that would mean she would be killed on sight. She had to play safe, so when she stepped out of the black portal, she stumbled slightly as she almost fell over a root in the ground and held onto a tree to stop herself from falling. That was just embarrassing. Luckily, the girl that came here was not one to feel embarrassed any more. She lost that ability years ago. In fact, she couldn't even remember a time when she had emotions such as happiness, joy, excitement... all she feels now is fear, dread and sorrow. She was a mess but lately was picking herself up from the ground. Her friends were now leading a better life because she risked herself for her expense. She was happy to do that, but couldn't express it.

Nyugh...

That was pretty much all she could orally say at this point, clinging to a tree trying not to suddenly deck it and slide a few metres on her face. The area around her was grassland, lots of stone and dirt paths going in the odd direction but if she looked closer, there were buildings about the place: all edo themed. What world had she stepped into? The girls black leather gloved hands let go of the tree's trunk as she got a firm grip on the ground with her black leather boots. She straightened herself up: Black shorts were slanted a little and needed to be pushed down a bit, the only clothing covering her breasts was coming loose so she tightened the 'swimsuit-like' strings so it didn't come undone so easily. Then she tugged at her black jacket with white stripes before stroking her pig tails: One very long and the other about half the size. Once she was decent, she stepped out from behind the tree and looked down the stone path. Who was this girl exactly? Well if you were told she worked under the Espada as a mass murderer you'd want to kill her right then and there. Well, no... This was Miku. She used to do that, but now was a girl wandering the world without a master, living underground and barely making each day as she scrambled for work and food. Miku looked up from the stone road to see something that made her think.

Hmm...a Palace...I may have stepped into this world too close to high authority... I must gain some distance before anybody spots me...

Miku had seen a massive Japanese styled palace. It looked absolutely wonderful with all the little bits and bobs that'd make her want to go explore every corridor to learn new things from its culture. However, she knew who she was and that she probably didn't fit in here in the slightest. She would be killed if she stayed any longer. Turning, Miku lifted her pale legs and began to walk away silently. Her sapphire eyes skimmed the area so she could get a better view on her surroundings before choosing which way to actually go. She stopped, thought about it. Then decided to walk in the opposite direction to the Palace hoping nobody saw her or sensed her appearing. That...would be bad...

THE AEGEAN KNIGHT OF RED
HE-WHO-IS-COVERED-IN-BLOOD

TERRA

He had been one of the first to respond. A strange presence had made itself known outside of the Sugiura Royal Palace, and Dai had moved as quickly as he could from where he was now residing. Having been taken in as a Knight of the Sugiura, the redheaded Ziamichi could only think about protecting his palace and those who resided within. Although Misaiko and Arturia were both most certainly powerful enough to protect themselves, he had sworn to be their shield in defense. It was for that reason that this redhead was now hurrying through the castle town at full speed; as his feet pounded on the dirt he felt himself moving faster and faster. Shunpo would be of use eventually, but moreso when he was out in the open--right now, it would simply serve to get in his way. Biting his bottom lip, Dai closed his eyes slightly and jumped up into the air, planting his feet onto one of the buildings, pushing himself further along the street and avoiding all possible contact with others as he did so. If he did that, then he would make quick work of the distance from here and now. His teeth grit, and the man's movements took him directly to the outside of the Sugiura Palace.

"Ugh, there's nobody he--" A strange energy signature; somewhere to the side. He turned his head quickly, and sharp eyes watched a scantily-clad woman moving relatively slowly in the opposite direction from where the palace was. The man bit his lip softly, and sighed. Great; there was no other response right now. As much as he disliked this sort of thing, he was to make sure that he did his proper duty and follow his newfound King to the end. Sighing once more, he pushed off from the spot on which he was standing, following the signature of the woman for a few seconds slowly, making sure that she didn't sense him. If she spotted him, it was likely that she'd attempt to escape. In order to stop that, he needed to get as close as he could to this woman with long back hair, make sure she knew that he was there when he wanted her to know, and finally see if she was hostile. If she was, then he would fight to disable her. If she was only hostile due to self-defense, he would try to use that to his advantage; keeping up a fight until she was disabled, and then give her an opportunity to escape. However, he would just allow her to leave if she wanted to leave. Of course, there was always the chance that she'd pose a proper threat. If that was to be the case, then she would be arrested, such as he was.

"Three... two... one..." The Ziamichi disappeared in an instant; appearing in front of the woman with a pair of narrowed red eyes. "So, may I ask what it is that you are doing here?" He didn't offer her any chance to escape or dodge the question. He would make sure that she wasn't hostile; he would make sure of it before the wrong people came along and assumed the worst. She felt like Arrancar, she felt like damn Arrancar. And while Daigoro may have his assumptions that some Arrancar deserved sympathy, he knew that a lot of people were far from the same. It was for that reason that he had to do this, even if it appeared as betrayal. Misaiko said... everyone deserves another chance... No matter what. He bit his lip, placing his hand onto the hilt of his zanpakuto with thinned eyes.

Shit, this was already going further than need be just by having somebody appear. Honestly, she thought she had set up some decent precautions but she must have been dazed in the trip and let herslef loosen her binds a bit. Her rietsu must have been detected somehow. Even so this was remarkable, and something she was a little interested in. However, things were bad as she was approached in a flash by a red haired man. Miku had ample time to realise somebody was tracking her because he dashed right in front of her, she could feel his presence rather than sense it. So right away, she Sonido backwards creating the normal sound that the ability made with that vibrating hum. She appeared only 5 meters away from this man and stared at him with a lot of caution in her step. Her feet held firmly to the ground so she didn't trip up if something caused her to move. he striked irst, a question of her identity. Miku couldn;t tell him the truth otherwise he would have perfect reason to cut her down where she stood. And if she told him her name, he must be able to recognise it from somewhere. Maybe make something up?... no... She was going to do the foolish thing almost as a feint to the real solution.

Why do you ask?...

First thing that popped to her head. However she said it with a very calm, unconcerned face and appearance. Was she playing? or was she just unable to feel scared at this moment. Miku quickly noticed he was holding onto his sword, something Miku herself had been hiding at this point. He must be very cautious around her too. This gave her an idea. She stood up firmly and dropped her guard before speaking.

I do not recognise you. Do you live here?

She was asking questions now. Probably a very bad idea as she was in the smaller position here. She was the trespasser after all but she was also after answers. She had no idea where she was after all. This guy though, he looked completely different to everyone else she had met before. However something was up. His hair...it was bright red. Miku noticed this only now and her right eye began to twitch uncontrollably. She held her right hand up to it and winced a little. It wouldn;t be that much of a shock if you understood what the girl had been through. The colour red reminded her of that woman. the woman that ruined her life. just seeing anybody with long red hair caused her to get both angry and frightened. Miku seriously lowered her guard for a good five seconds before looking back up and removing her hand from her eye, less confident than before.

S..sorry. My name is Miku...I'm not here as an enemy...if that's what your here to investigate...Mr...?

Miku had yet to learn this mans name. he looked rather odd...but maybe he would open a new world to her?

AT WAR WITH HIMSELF (A LOSING BATTLE)

Danger. This one is dangerous.

No, she had announced herself as one who would not be his enemy. Gritting his teeth slightly, Daigoro stepped backwards and closed his right eye without trying to show that he was already beginning to struggle. Though on the outside he appeared to be of an unusual calm, he was beginning to fight himself in the back of his mind. The creature that he knew as a part of himself was starting to awaken, starting to tell him that this was a dangerous youth. He didn't understand; he never understood, at least not from the perspective of He-Who-Is-Covered-In-Blood. "You say you're not dangerous, huh?" He smirked, trying to hold in all feral instincts for as long as possible. He didn't need to preserve his own life, so why was it reacting this way? It did have ways of telling when there was more to appearances than met the eye, but this was foolish. It was almost as if it was willing him to fight. No, there was no need to go through with any form of bloodshed. Blood. Blood was unneeded.

You know that to be a lie, Feral-One

Why was he being called the Feral-One? That was not he, he was not that. Clenching his right hand into a fist, he closed that right eye once more. There was no need for bloodshed now, was there? No, there wasn't! He could almost hear himself laughing maniacally already. Clucking his tongue, the man sighed softly. The fires were calming once more, it seemed that he had won this battle of wills within his own mind. "My name, it is Daigoro Ito. I am... supposedly... the Aegean Knight of the Sugiura." He chuckled softly. Supposedly, he was. He wasn't completely sure of such facts, though he was sure that he had some role to play, as Queen Misaiko had spared him from death that day. He owed her, so he would repay that debt. Smiling softly, he stepped up towards her and held out a hand. "Come, I'll get you out of here. I already know you're not meant to be here, though you say you're not a thr--rrgh!" A sudden barrage of pain entered his skull. Normally, Daigoro's resistance to things such as pain was high enough that it wouldn't bother him. However, this piercing feeling was more than that. It wasn't pain, it was pressure. A pushing feeling on the back of his skull. An attempt at crushing all resistance, that's what this was.

Come now, fall into me...

Without any warning, Daigoro's hands went up to his head and he stepped backwards, stumbling away from the woman with wide eyes. Growling sounds escaped from his lips as his body started to change slightly; his hair paled in color and his flesh did too. Turning slowly towards the woman, he gave a slightly feral grin as his eyes changed color to a golden hue. "Sorry. Must get rid of you now. You're too much of a danger to let live." Who knew what that creature was talking about. Maybe it knew more than you'd imagine... Suddenly jumping forwards, he was off like a shot, streaming towards Miku with wild eyes. "Don't move, and you'll die quickly!" He swiped once, twice, thrice with his hands, before jumping back and staring at her. "Hrn." Why was he not landing killing blows? The beast wondered what was holding him back, when another feeling pushed back into him.

No. You'll not take me over!

Breathing heavily, the man slowly regained his composure and looked at Miku with an apologetic smile. "That was unexpected of me. I apologize... I hope I didn't hurt you..."

. M I K U . M I D K N I G H T .

It's not like Miku was here to deliberately cause trouble but thanks to this mans actions, she won't be able to make up an excuse for what was about to unfold. Miku wearily held her eye for a moment. It was calming down now and the blue glow had pretty much vanished leaving no signs that it had even existed. That was a good thing. The man began to talk to her though which meant she couldn't just ignore him. She was the visitor here and she knew some manners. After all, she did serve under...her... once. He sarcastically accepted the fact that Miku was not dangerous. Either that or he was challenging her hostility which was never a good thing. Miku had little to no idea that what was about to occur would start a chain reaction within herself. But that comes later...not now...

"Daigoro?... Sugiura?...

The man revealed his name to Miku and also his position. He was with a race that she had no idea existed. In fact, Miku only knew about the Shinigami and humans. She was never told to learn about the rest so she never took it as relevant. Maybe now would be a good time for her to pick up some more knowledge about the universe she lives in. He chuckled. Showing that he maybe wasn't here to start something. Miku lowered her hand from her eye finally, just making sure that it wasn't noticeably different to its dull look from before. She then stood up straight and looked on to listen more closely to this man.

As he went to help Miku out and take her somewhere in a friendly manner, which definitely got through to the girl as she was never really shown much friendship by anyone, something bad must have happened to this 'Daigoro' person as he looked like he was having a very bad headache. Miku knew what this sort of thing was though as she had been around too many people that had issues. Either he had a bad reaction to sunlight or something, or her more accurate guess would be that he wasn't normal. Miku had never met a Sugiura before and she couldn't confirm if he was one or not. However she had nothing more to go on.

Daigoro's voice changed slightly, or was that her imagination? He stood differently too and within a matter of seconds after passing little words, Daigoro actually darted towards Miku in an attempt to attack her. He spoke before attacking though: something about her being too dangerous to live? Maybe he was right. Was this just another one of those people? The ones that want to abuse and use Miku like the rest? Memories of the red haired girl were leaking into her head as this red haired man resembled her movement slightly. Miku lost all thought that this man was Daigoro, but somebody entirely different. But only for an instant.

Miku's righr eye instantly flamed. It wasn't possible to see anything more than fire gushing from her eye socket as she pulled a sword from her hip, under the jacket but seemingly out of thin air within the instant that Daigoro was dashing. Miku's legs moved her backwards by barely an inch to give her some movement speed to propel off of and her hand didn't just draw, but threw her sword forwards with the handle pointed at Dai but it never actually left her side. Then once Dai was close, using whatever method of her speed and strength, Miku grabbed her sword before it had moved a great deal but realised he was too quick for her to just attack right now in the pattern she planned. His hand came down and violently clawed at her cheek. Talk about bitch slap...

Miku had little concept of this guys skills and so she needed to move. That swing dazed her a little and caused her to bend her knee's as the force knocked her down slightly. From here though she could move. Rapidly moving herself behind Dai via her sonido where she would slid around the man to her right, she kicked off the ground and back flipped herself a good 15ft away before turning back, sliding on the ground a bit and holding her sword in a single hand stance with the tip pointing to the sky and her arm straight to the ground. Her eye was still flaring and her left eye appeared to be watering as though she was about to cry.

Miku's cheek had cut a little, bruise a bit more. But she wasn't going to bother worrying about that. He could come for her again at any moment but luckily she was still in control of her own actions. Maybe this guy would change back quickly. He didn't sound like the type that would just try to kill her on the spot. She bent her knee's though and was ready to embrace another attack if he turned to fight once more. Slowly though, Miku was beginning to think more and more about herself and...her...

...Holding onto sanity through sorrow is not an easy feat...

luckily he showed signs of returning back to normal but Miku was in no state to believe anything right now. She would stay in this pose until she knew for certain she wasn't about to be cut in half by this man. He was the dangerous one...
