Lunch Time (open)

The hunger burned deep inside of him. He'd grown so very hungry over these last days but he'd been so busy staying alive in Hueco Mundo that he hadn't had time to come eat. He walked through the Gargantua and into the dark of night time. Glancing around, he realized that he was in New York. Not five steps in, however, he felt something huge! It was strong enough to be a Shinigami. He remembered the way the last shinigami had satisfied him and drooled. They were tough to beat, but boy were they tasty!

And if it wasn't a shinigami, it might be a human of some sort! Oh that would mean all the flavor and none of the bite! He could hardly wait. Ducking his head down, he began to run with all his might. He'd have a right nice dinner tonight! It wasn't long before he could see the soul that he was wanting to eat. It surprised him. A living person stood talking to a small soul. The soul was actually weak, and the person, he believed it was a police officer of some sort, was trying to help her along. Ahhhh... So this human was one of those special ones. One day, he'd probably die and become a Shinigami. Katashi had a better idea. He dropped to the ground silently and hunched his shoulders as he walked towards the two, weeping uncontrollably. "Mama!? Where are you Mama!?" He cried out! He looked up just a little, the only thing showing were the eyes of his mask, which under the cowl he wore would seem to most to just be too pale skin. "Have you seen my mama?" He asked the policeman. He saw the man's expression go from alarm to worry and finally to compassion. This one was his. He'd devour them both...

((Ok, I'm stopping here to give someone a chance to defend them. You have a few hours before I post the next part where I eat them.))

Karasu saw the little boy crying to the police offiser and thought that hollow think he is slick by trying to steal my meal. Karasu then use his power to make Ice swords and threw one at him from behind. Karasu then smiled as he let go of it thinking it would hit at least one of them and he would have some type of food to eat,he hadnt have any food in a good minute.

Katashi sensed the other hollow's approach and "accidentally" tripped as the swords flew past where he'd been moments before. The cop scowled and saw the other hollow. "What the hell!? Kid, you're seriously lucky. That thing almost skewered you..." He drew his gun and began to fire rapidly at the hollow.

Katashi knew that the gun would have no effect on his new enemy, and he didn't bother waiting for the creature to take him out. The human needed to be put down momentarily, but not killed. He didn't want to lose that valuable soul... He snuck behind the cop and huddled down close behind his legs. The cop, used to protecting people, assumed that the kid was trying to be protected.

But the truth was he was doing so for advantage. He didn't need the human to kill the other hollow and he'd heard that Hollows could be as tasty as shinigami sometimes. Allowing the shadow to cover his claws, he threw off his cloak and slashed deeply into the human. He made sure not to kill him, but to leave him close enough that the shadow energy would do the rest.

He looked up at the now bullet scarred rooftop where the other hollow stood. "Why do you attack me. We could share this meal, yes? No need for two hollow to fight one another. Our enemies are the Shinigami, not each other..." The child spirit began to inch away and Katashi moved with intense speed, slashing it's throat open with his claw before turning back to see what the other hollow would say.

Karasu made a sword in his hand just in case the hollow tried to do anything aginst him. Karasu then jumped down from the rooftop and had said Your right I only had food on my mind and most of the time when one hollow get food he wont shar it with another. So im sorry for attacking you. Karasu said in a nice voice.

Katashi grabbed the child and offered it to the other hollow with the blank eyeholes of his mask staring. "Here. Feed. No need for weapons and violence amongst our own kind." Katashi's child-like voice was laced with fear. He hoped he could convince the other hollow to eat and calm down. He was obviously very violent even for a hollow and it wouldn't do to have him swinging that sword at him. He walked over to the policeman who was writhing on the ground as the corrosive shadow energy of Katashi's claws ate into him. The death would be very painful. That was for sure. Katashi got down on his knees and began to feed in his own strange way. Absorbing the soul through his hands as the shadow energy dissolved it. All the while he watched the other hollow to see what he'd do.

It had been a serious pain to get his vacation approved by the Seireitei and had required all kinds of red tape and an agreement to hunt any hollows he ran across while he was there. He hoped he wouldn't receive any tips, however. It was hard to relax in Soul Society, even in the Rukongai. He needed somewhere to get away from it all.

He walked down the street, oblivious at first to the fight brewing before him until he walked into the two hollows. One about to eat and the other already started on a dying human. He sighed. Why tonight!? At least they didn't seem to tough.

Drawing his Wakizashi Zanpakuto, he glared at the two Hollow. "Why did you have to choose New York as your feeding ground!?" he growled. "So many better places! But NO! You had to ruin my vacation... You're going to regret it!" That said, he raised his hand and shouted out, "Fenrir cry your mighty howl, cage the sin of motals betwixt your jaw and tear from them the will to oppose your wrath. Hado Jyuu-Hachi! LUNAR STRIKE!" From his palm, a basketball sized sphere of energy launched its self into the sky to hang there like a moon. Garin smiled and looked at the two hollow. The one with the sword seemed like the biggest threat, so he turned towards him first, keeping watch on the other one out of the corner of his eye.

Getting into a defensive stance with his Zanpakuto at the ready, he motioned for the swordsman hollow to come forward. "Today you die, hollow..."

Karasu walkes a little bit aways from them and sets the kid down and says Be carefull out here you could get hurt. Karasu then goes back to the Shinigami and said Im sorry but its rude not to state you name. Karasu said as he formed a second sword in his hand. He smiled and waited for the Shinigami to move.

((uh, the child's soul that you had was dead. Katashi slashed it's throat.))

Garin smiled at the hollow with his swords made of Ice. They wouldn't hold up against a real Zanpakuto. He stretched out and stood to his full height, his massive muscles rippling powerfully, even under the robes. "Very well, hollow. I'll give you my name, though I doubt you'll live long enough for it to truly register. I am Garin Shane, Shinigami of the Third Division." With that said he began to advance steadily and unafraid, his hand raising, with two fingers pointed towards the Hollow. He knew just what to do. Focusing his Rietsu, he stated plainly, "Hado San, Byakurai!" From his fingers shot a thick stream of lightning at Kerasu!

Katashi would have smiled if he could. The Shinigami came at a perfect time. This fool hollow with his ice swords would be taken care of easily. He slowly positioned himself behind Kerasu. When the Shinigami, Garin he said he was, began the second Kido, he leaped away before it could be called into effect. He had a feeling that the Sword Hollow wouldn't go down so easily.

As he tumbled out of the way of the Byakurai attack, he allowed Shadow to cover his claws. He wouldn't be losing his food tonight...

Karasu turned to the left dodging the Hado. He then made two ice swords and sent them at Garin, as he sent the sword he said I will live long enough and also since you introduce yourself I will do the same so my name is Karasu. He said in a cold tone.

Unlike his fellow hollow, Katashi wasted no time in chatter. With a Scream of rage, he ran as fast as he could at the other hollow's back, slashing with shadow drenched claws while he was concentrating on the Shinigami. He could deal with the Shinigami later. He'd already fed a good deal on the soul and there wasn't much left for anyone. He could grab the boy and run with him, seeing as this Shinigami was apparently pretty powerful and he wouldn't want to fight him.

Garin smirked as the hollow sent the ice swords at him. Using his own swords, he deflected both swords easily, sending them shattering to either side. The Kido was simply a test of course to see how fast the hollow could move. He'd barely dodged, which told Garin that he was probably a low ranking hollow, maybe a few months old and just getting into his own power.

Even as he prepared for his counter attack, the smaller hollow who had appeared to be cowering up until now attacked his fellow hollow from behind. Apparently luck was with him! For now, the enemy of his enemy was an enemy he'd kill later. He rushed forward, sword at the ready to attack the hollow head on. Out of the corner of his eye he checked on his first Kido's progress. It was almost done. He could hardly wait to see the look on the hollows face when it finished it's charging.

Upon getting in range, he stabbed at Kerasu in a simple, obvious attack. He would have to try and defend, and how he defended would tell Garin a lot, especially since he had two attackers to fight off at this point.
