"Captain Ziel!!!!!" a sudden scream of pain was heared, blood sprayed from the corner of a house, a low class soul reaper blade lay there, drenched in its old masters blood. A hand lay next to the blade, lifeless and partly mutilated. Anouther horrific scream, but this time it was animalistic a beast that cried for blood. There it was a hollow on all fours, like that of a tiger awaiting its prey to walk into it's trap, suddenly footsteps were heared. Anouther scream came, the shadow of a man was seen, the hollow pounced, the man held his blade up with one hand. A foul crunch was created as the hollow slowly slide down the base of the blade, the shadow of the man held up his kill as if it was the weight of a feather. After a few seconds a lightning reflexed slice came from his blade, he sheathed it whilst the hollow disappaited into oblivion.<br/><br/>The shadow kneld beside of the body of the soul reaper, "I'm sorry....I was to late.... Rest now..." a gentle fair skinned hand made contact with the body's fingers that seemed to reach for the blade that was left on the ground. The shadow stood and turned around the corner, revealing a long silver haired man in a captains uniform. "It seems the Rukon district is also plagued be Hollows..." Anouther call from a beast was heared from a distance, "I don't have much time...." Ziel picked up the body of the dead soul reaper, the body was that of a female. The last thing the captain of squade thirteen would be to leave a dead soul reapers body behind to be defiled or eaten. The dead soulreapers blade sheathed and returned to its holster. The body rested on Ziel's sholder, and with a sudden gust of speed, he launched towards the Seireitei after conducting a scouting mission by himself. As well as noticing the dissappearances of soul reapers in the Rukon district.<br/><br/>"Why did this happen?!" Many options came to mind but none fit the puzzle that Ziel now had in his head. The Seireitei now in sight after a fair amount of time, he stopped noticing a lot of activity behind him. He knew that Hollows invaded the area, but not in large enough groups to have exact locations of every single one. Shaking his head his first priority was to report back and take the body of the fallen soul reaper within the Seireitei. There at least some sort of berrial can be conducted, once passing through towards the grounds where only soul reapers are found, Ziel began his travel towards the barracks.
