Aoi was stuck trying to figure out a way to tell the two to leave that didn't sound crazy, as she didn't know the two could see the hollow, when a sudden red tint to the area caught her attention. The monster was charging yet another ball of energy, only this time it was aimed at the two brothers. "What? No! Hey! Over here!" Aoi screeched, firing a few more arrows at it, but it was to no avail.

Hearing Aoi, Eiji looked towards her for a moment, before realizing that it wasn't her he needed to be looking at. "Holy-" He gasped. Whipping out his iPad, he opened a blank screen and started drawing. It would be a race to what would be finished first, his drawing or it's ball of energy.
Eiichi, knowing there was no way to escape now that it's attention was on them, froze in place and hoped his brother would make it.

Hi!]] I"m gonna be poofy]]
Aoi held her bow up once more and aimed it at the hollow's mask this time. She started charging up an arrow, this time putting more spiritual energy into it to hopefully have more of an impact on the giant. From their expressions she guessed that the two brothers could probably see the hollow, which came as a bit of a surprise to her. Why aren't they running then? Do they also have powers? She shook her head and let the arrow fly, and followed it up with three more consecutive shots. They all hit and caused the hollow's head to waver, but the attack was still charging.
The eyes of the menos suddenly glowed the same red as its attack. One monstrous hand swiped at Aoi and it then fired the energy at the twins, letting out another loud roar as it did so.

Just as the menos fired, Eiji finished his drawing. With a flick, the drawing became real. In front of the brothers, a giant reflector appeared, aimed to reflect the attack back at the hollow. Eiji just hoped that it would hold.

Watch out...! Aoi shot forward, hoping maybe she'd be fast enough to pull them out of the way before the attack hit. She focused herself and after jumping into the air appeared behind the two brothers. She had just grabbed the collar of Eiichi's shirt when the attack hit. She flinched, expecting the worst, but opened her eyes and slowly turned around when she heard the explosion but felt nothing.
The attack from the hollow hit up against Eiji's wall and exploded. A few cracks appeared here and there, but most of the force was directed back in the hollow's direction. It stumbled back, its foot landing just a hair away from the building behind it.

When Ringo had finally awoke she struggled to get out of the nurses room, and to get back home that she was unaware of the fight.

Eiichi had felt something grab him, but he couldn't tear his gaze away from the red blaze. His eyes widened when his brother's creation held together, at least long enough to reflect the energy back at the hollow. And even better, it actually effected the thing.
Right after the blast, the reflector shattered into nothing, disappearing. Eiji left out a breath he didn't even realize he was holding. His hand felt cramped from quickly drawing, as he held onto the pen too tightly. But unfortunately, the battle wasn't over. The thing was still standing, even after being hit with it's own attack.

Aoi let go of Eiichi's collar and slumped over with relief but that feeling soon faded. "So you guys have powers too?" she asked, cutting to the chase. "Any ideas how we can get that thing away from town?" Her gaze went from the two brothers to the hollow, her heart still pounding.
Just have time for one post toady, and a heads up, I probably won't be on the next couple of days, I have two big exams coming up x_x]]

(Good luck!)
Eiichi jumped a little, finally focusing on Aoi. At first he didn't know what to say, but was able to find words after a moment. "Uh, no. No powers." He replied. "Unless you consider seeing spirits one, then yeah, I do." He glanced at his brother.
Eiji, however, kept his eyes on the hollow. "No ideas," He replied calmly. "And I don't think I'll be able to deflect another blast." He glanced over at Aoi for a moment. "Aren't you a hollow expert anyways? You seemed to know what you were doing today when you fought that hollow on the roof."

"Guys," she said as she limped over to them obviously still weak from before, but then she saw the hollow, and she thought she saw a small girl behind the mask.

Back!]]
"Well that's helpful," Aoi murmured off-hand. "Anyway, about that... thing, well, I don't know what it is. I've never seen one before. I mean, I think it's a hollow. It has a mask, and that big hole in it's chest," she went on. Hearing a quiet voice behind her, Aoi turned around to see Ringo. "Oh, you're the shinigami from earlier."

"Shinigami?" She asked making it quite clear that she couldn't remember what happened as she grasped her head as it started to hurt more.

Eiichi and Eiji turned. "Ringo?" Eiichi blinked. Eiji barely glanced at her, knowing her as the girl from earlier. He didn't see how she could help, so instead he turned to Aoi.
"What's a shinigami?" He asked. He didn't know that term. Honestly, he didn't know much. The only reason he even knew what a hollow was called was because of a spirit, which, like his brother, he could see and speak to.

"A shinigami's a spirit with special powers. Well in Ringo's case they can be human from time to time. They guide spirits to Soul Society and fight against hollows," Aoi explained, her ingrained dislike for the race evident in her tone of voice. "Wait a minute, now is not the time for this! We have to do something about that!" She pointed to the giant hollow, who was just starting top open its mouth. "Best thing I can think of is lead it away in one big group. Ringo, you ok to walk?"

"I think so, but we also need to help her," she said looking at the hollow.

(Menos aren't a single hollow, Misstriss, but a bunch of hollows mixed together, so they can't be a spirit needing help. Just look them up on a bleach wiki.)
"Well, this will be fun," Eiji muttered, definitely not thrilled. He didn't want to get that things attention again. At this point, it seemed to have moved from them, and Eiji wanted to get away from it. He was also worried about his brother getting involved with this, since Eiichi had no way of defending himself.

Menos Link ]] "Well good, we're going to need all the fighting strength we can get," Aoi said, then turning to Eiji. "I saw you made that wall earlier, do you have offensive powers too?" Before waiting for an answer, the bow appeared in her hand once more and she had begun to make her way down the street. The menos seemed to notice the new movement. The glowing pupils behind the eye-holes of the mask followed Aoi but would sporadically flick back to the other three, drawn to their spiritual power.

Eiji nodded. "Eiichi, get back," he told his brother. "You will only get in the way." Without looking at his brother again, Eiji broke into a run, following Aoi. He started to sketch a weapon, though he didn't know how effective it would be against the giant hollow.
Eiichi stood back, knowing that what his brother said was the truth. With no special powers or abilities, Eiichi couldn't help.

Aoi sent a quick glance back at the two unable to fight before shooting a few arrows at the menos. She released as much of her spiritual pressure as she could before charging up another larger, more powerful shot to hopefully boost their chances of taking its full attention away from the other two. "You know how to release your spirit pressure I hope?" she asked Eiji between shots.
The red pupils of the menos pulled away from Eiichi and Ringo and the enormous body slowly turned. The feet made cracks in the pavement and shook the ground with more footsteps, long arms swinging limp at its sides. Aoi's arrow hit the long nose of the mask, leaving the tiniest of cracks right at the point.

Eiji glanced at Aoi. "My what?" He asked, finishing his drawing. It appeared before him, looking like a cannon. However, Eiji had figured out pretty quickly that a normal cannon wouldn't harm a hollow, so instead this cannon shot energy blasts similar to the ones hollows use.

"Spirit pressure," Aoi repeated, "it's hard to explain, but it has to do with your powers. Like... you felt the presence of that hollow right? It's power creates this pressure that we're feeling now, that's what I mean." She shot several more times at the hollow, though since she was running it was difficult to charge her shots all the way.

"Oh," Eiji replied, firing a shot at the hollow. The shot was small compared to the huge thing, and Eiji wasn't surprised that it didn't make a dent. "So what does it mean to release it?"

Post by Kuragehime on Oct 27, 2016 17:12:01 GMT -5
Aoi went quiet, unsure how to answer the next question. "That's... also hard to describe. You just, release it. That probably didn't help, did it," she murmured, giving Eiji a glance. She held the bow aside and increased her speed to gain a little distance before taking aim and charging another large arrow.

"No, not really," Eiji replied, the cannon disappearing as he moved, quickly drawing another weapon to use. At this moment, he really wished that he knew more about his abilities and the possibilities of them. Unfortunately, he didn't understand a lot.
