Its a nice sunny day in Karakura town, but something doesn't feel right. There is a crack in the sky, and it seems like something is going to rain down and cause havoc. Twenty hollows come down from the sky and land down on the ground.
"I can smell it..."
"Fresh souls..."
Luckily the school is empty, however that doen't mean a thing.
A little girl spirit starts running, screaming help as two hollows come down in order to devour the spirit.

Miwa just happened to be walking past the middle she used to attend, mainly just for the old memories the place had given her. However, now was not the time to reminscence about the older days while her mother was still alive, as the air was heavy with a vaguely familiar reiatsu, one Miwa quickly recognized as belonging to a Hollow. As the sounds of distress echoed across the air, Miwa could only assume the worst from the screams. It was yet another feeding frenzy for the fiends and the screams were from that which was their prey.
Smiling to herself while brushing back her midnight coloured hair, she quickly broke out into a sprint towards the noise, her arms flailing behind her as her body went aerial at the first sign of one of the Hollows. As a hammer meterialized into her open hand, she sent the bulk of the mallet crahing into the mask of the Hollow upon her descent, releasing a shockwave of electricity onto the unfortunate monster's skull in an attempt to obliterate the being in one shot.

The current ran through the hollow, and if that wasn't enough the hammers impact had won the fight. However it wasn't over. Even though the Miwa had defeated one hollow, it didn't mean that there was only one to begin with.
"Filthy Human!"
A hollow, slightly larger than the other was floating right over her head. It looked somewhat like a phrehistoric creature that flew through the skies. The hollow would come down and swoop her up into the sky, whilst the claws would dig into her shoulder. Once they would get up further, his intentions weren't so kind hearted as the hollow would let go and make her fall to her death.

As he was passing by the school, after one of his afternoon trips out to one of the shrines in the city. He would feel a disturbance by the school. His steps would turn towards the school, arriving as Miwa would slam a hammer in to a hollow. He would remain observing, analyzing the situation. As the first hollow was defeated. His steps would move forward as the second hollow would enter the fray, seemingly starting to lift Miwa up. His steps would end up reaching there soon but in no rush. He wasn't going to enter the fighting already. He wasn't going to get surprised by something sneaking up on him, as his eyes and senses were on the edge. Waiting for something to happen.
It seems, there's more of them than i thought from the start at this area. But it gives it a good time to exorcise a few more hollows than what i prepared to find in need of being exorcised.
After that there could be heard a sort of mumbling of words that wouldnt be recognisable by any of the people present at this location. It was merely words to those that wouldnt understand their meaning nor why he would keep repeating them over and over now. The "prayers" or what ever you could call them, mostly to raise his own spirit to actually do a forced exorcism of this amount of spirits in need of getting sent on their way to their next life.

As the hammer slammed down onto the ugly mug of the Hollow, she felt it hit home as teh combined pressure shattered through the Hollow's mask, crushing the fiend's skull in the process as blood splattered across her face, a smirk on her face.
As she attempted to lift the hammer's bulky mass back up, she felt a sharp pain as something punctured the flesh of her shoulder causing a breif lapse in concentration as the hammer turned into sand in her hands. Her body was slowly rising upward as her head swiveled around to look upward at the winged creature who dugged its putrid talons into her shoulderblades. She wanted to cry out, yet at the same time rage consumed her for a Hollow was underestimating her ability. Clenching her teeth, she slowly formed a small kunai knife in her right palm, while her left held on to the ankle of the pterodactyl like creature, should it lose it's grip.
As Miwa's reiatsu flared up around her in the form of pure electricity, she felt the sinister claws loosen around her as she plummetted downward towards her possible death. As her arms drew up against her side, she let gravity take it's toll as her speed began to hasten towards the unforgiving splatter that could ensue. Her body suddenly did a partial 360 degree as the kunai flung from her fingertips,piercing into the neck of the aerial Hollow, a thin outline of a chain glowing a ghostly blue, bringing Miwa to a sudden halt, as she pulled down on the chain to potentially do two things: send her self back at the fiend and in turn pull the poltergeist into her waiting open left palm, which radiated in her coursing reiatsu. As her body fly upwards towards the beast, her lips could be seen forming the words, "Die, you accursed abomination..."

The Kunai peirced the hollows neck as it drifted in the sky, with Miwa's body weight the hollow came down, falling from the sky. With Miwa's next attack the creature was abolished into the next world. However Miwa was still in the mid air, how could she survives this?
On the ground bellow her Quiang would be surounded as three hollows circle the being, the numbers were getting bigger, and soon so will the damage. The first hollow lungged outwards towards Quiang with it's silvery bladed claws, hoping in order to cut the skin of the human.

As he was constantly saying his "prayers". He was finally ready to fight as it seemed there was three hollows around him now. He would take out his book connected to the the terrestial circle. Soon one of the hollows seemed to be getting over eager and would try to rush towards him. Terrestial Circle, Chapter 1 page 2, Genbu's biter.
His statement would make it so that as suddenly as he had stated those words, around him there would rise spikes made out of obsidian. Around the hollow that had charged towards him, there would be 3 pillars shouting towards it in a instant, one underneath it, to the right and one to the left of it. The ones on the side would me aimed straight towards the side of the hollow from a bit outside so it would come in from a angle.The spikes would rise to the full size of 4 feet, at a very high speed. In the same instant it was happening, 3 spikes in the same manner for each of the hollows that was circling him appeared, and would try to impale them on him, so that they would remain still and weak enough for him to be able to exorcise them.

The plan had worked, but partially as Miwa had destroyed the Hollow, but the body had dematerlized. She was hoping on using the Hollow's corpse as a cushion to reduce the impact from the fall. Now, it seemed as though she had little options left, as the beckoning Earth was quickly coming inot veiw to greet her and the resulting collsion would not be pleasant. Her eyes quickly darted around her surrounding for any source of salvation she could use.
As she pondered in a rushed situation, her mind came to a conclusion as her hands and feet pushed out below her, gathering materials to as a brillaint electric blaze took on the shape of an old fashioned shield. As her hands gripped tightly onto the shield for dear life, she kept it below her own frame to take most of the impact of the fall. If her plan succeeded, she would let loose a concentrated burst of her reiatsu upon collision,creating
a small shockwave which would lessen her impact, and allow her to continue mostly unscathed. In addition, anything nearby would be caught in the shockwave, making the plan a good offensive manuever as well as defensive. Now, hopefully it would work.

The spikes came out, and the hollows were shocked on the outcome. One by one they dissapeared from the attack. These weak hollows were gathering, but what for? Meanwhile Miwa had successfully landed back down with her quick thinking, that was a close one.
All of a sudden a worm like hollow came forth to Miwa, swiping it's tail along the ground, hoping to hit her. If she was to jump, another hollow would dive out and tackle her to the ground.
On Qiangs side, another hollow had appeared, bearing massive class, sharp enough to cause major damage to a human, and shinigamis body.
The numbers are picking up, but sometime they have to go down.

Chiaki had been laying low, avoiding Arrancar until she could find her team and figure out what to do. During all that laying low, she had felt a strong reiatsu presence that wasn't what she gotten used to in the town. Moving in her gigai, she tried to be as inconspicuous as possible as she moved to the school.
Once she moved close, she could see some flying hollows above the school and see one or two on the ground from time to time. Chiaki grew apprehensive, could she just leave those hollows to do as they please? No. Absolutely not. She was not trained in academy and for her whole life to run now. She paled a bit, how many were there? Shaking her head she moved down an alley. She had to hide her gigai from prying eyes. Moving quickly and letting her false body drop safely onto the ground.
In her regular form she sprinted toward the school, cursing her inability to move any faster. As she got closer she saw two human combatants on the field and took quick note of them. One was surrounded, and she quickly unsheathed her sword to attack the hollow closest to her about the attack the boy, and she swing through the head. She did a quick spin and thrust her blade into the next closest hollow's mask.
She put her back to the boy, watching his. Trying to use good faith that if the boy could see hollows he could see her, and that he wouldn't attack her. She waited for the boy or the next hollow to make a move. Over her shoulder she shouted out, "Do we know why all these hollows are here?" she held out her blade before her, and tried thinking strategy.

As it seemed his plan of attack had worked on this level of enemies. As soon as he had gotten rid of the first wave of enemies, a new one stood before him. It seemed it was something strange here, especially as another person appeared on the scene, as she suddenly took out the hollow in front of him, then standing behind him seemingly covering his back. Then hearing her ask why they would be here. He'd scratch his head as he would walk towards the entrance of the building. I'll work on the source, you two deal with these outside. Part of why he would leave it to them, was because he wished to see the source, and because of the person that had showed up.
As he was inside, he wondered what he would find, hopefullly, a reason to this problem. Something that would be truely interesting beyond the regular, for him as a exorcist. What it could possibly be, would be, was still in the dark if there even would be anything.

Her plan had worked with only a few minor burns across her arms. Pulling herself back to her feet groggily, her eyes caught the whiplike appendage swinging towards her. As through instinct, she immediately launched herself skyward, a burst of electricity forming in her right hand as it merged into a large shuriken. As her hand swung backward to catapult the shuriken towards the Hollow, another had launched itself at her as she quickly succumbed to the weight pushed on upon her petite frame.
Shuriken still in hand, she swung the blades into the chest of her assailant as she used the weapon as a conductor to send an sharp current into the creature. Should that work to stun the Hollow, Miwa would propel herself upward in a gymnastic like fashion sending her leg crashing down upon the fiend's masked skull in another release of electricity.
If the creature wasn't fazed by the first burst of Furina, Miwa would struggle free her right leg, kicking the imbedded shuriken deep into the Hollow hole, using it in combination with Furina to cleave the creature in two.

Chiaki and Miwa were deemed successful, as they both killed the hollows. But still it wasn't over.
Now they all needed to work together, eight of them appeared from no where. Their cunning eyes staring into theirs. The hollows would go in to attack, but not all at the same time. One mightgo head on, as one might attack from the skies. It was up to the three to work together, for their survival.

Chiaki had only blinked and everything had changed, at least, that's how it felt. The human she had been trying to help had run off and sort of left her open to be attacked in the back. Along with this, she could tell that the human girl and herself were surrounded on a couple fronts. Keep moving. Don't let them pin you down.
Chiaki lunged to the side as soon as she felt a hollow coming down at her from above. Rolling into a crouched position she turned and tried to take in the whole situation. Her mind worked fast but not quite fast enough to free up other senses. She needed to work on that. A hollow came at her from behind and a claw dug deep into her back. Eyes widening, she focused back on herself. Just a bit to her right was the human girl...
Taking in a deep and quick breath as claws dug deeper and tried to pull her back, Chiaki spun tonthe side, opposite the way normal arms bend. She hoped this would force the hollow to let her go, but whether it did or didn't she still made a swing at its arm. Sliding a foot in closer to the hollow, she spun the blade in her hands until it aimed straight at the hollow's mask. But just as she made a fatal stab at the abomination, another Hollow landed on her. The blade tore downward on the first hollow as it's friend forced Chiaki to the ground.
The way she was pinned, face down, didn't give her many options, so she cried out, "Help!" silently, she cursed herself for asking for help, and at the same time she swore it wouldn't happened again.

He'd keep moving further inside the building, not bothering with what occured outside, it wasn't up to him to fight along side one of those shinigamis anyway. As he had actually thought there could be something drawing these hollows here to this very location within the building. As it seemed weird for that many of them to show in the same place, but it seemed like it wouldn't give him any leads yet, as he kept walking, thinking maybe the basement? or the second floor? Not deciding as he wasn't sure on how the building's layout was, he would look around for a bit more on the first floor then see where he could go next.

Miwa heard the girl who she had just realized was on the battlefield cry out for help, clutching her right shoulder which had been slightly burned from her own ability in addition to bruises dealt by the Hollow she had just felled. Pulling her shuriken from the fading Hollow's corpse, she ran over to where the girl was, throwing the large shuriken towards the voracious Hollow pinning the human to the ground, ducking to avoid a nearly fatal collision with another one of the foul creatures, as she felt the claws shred against the flesh of her back.
She winced from the pain, but the Hollow was still there and Miwa was sure it'd be flying back to finish what it had started. Miwa pulled herself to her feet, breaking out in a run once more, her eyes occasionally looking behind her for signs of the aerial fiend which had vanished, all while using the chain of reiatsu connected to the shuriken to manipulate the trajectory to collide with the Hollow pursuing the human girl, as she released another surge of electricity through the Tesla Coil.

It had been a close call. Chikai had defeated one hollow, but the other had her pinned her down, if it wasn't for Miwa's rescue Chiaki would of died.They had only killed three hollows whilst Qiang had run off, and there was still more to come. There was still five on the playing feild. One of them looked to have bursted in through the walls to pay Qiang a vist, slashing it's razor sharp claws towards the boy.
Another attempted to shoot a web from it's mouth towards Chiaki, she has to be careful since the web is acid web. On the other side there was a worm like hollow that had already dug its way underground, it looks like it will come from beneath to attack Miwa.
Even though their attention would be to those main hollows there was still another two as they both went for Chiaki and Miwa as a distraction.

Chiaki, a firm believer in not talking more than necessary, bowed her head to her rescuer as she jumped to her feet. Never ever mentioning this to my captain. She'd kill be for getting caught like that.
There where much less hollows here than there had been when she had arrived. Made it much easier to keep an eye on most of them. At that moment, Chiaki saw a hollow shoot something at her and she ran to the side to evade it. You guys aren't getting me again. She thought determinedly as she tightened her grip on her zanpakutou. The web hit the side of the building with a sick hissing sound, which made Chiaki even happier she had dodged it. There were two that were focused on her; the one with the web and another. She'd have to evade one while dealing with the other.
Deciding to leave the web-spitter alone for the moment she ran to the next one. Jumping into the air, after quickly making sure another web wasn't headed her way, she pulled her blade above her head. Holding it in both hands to make the swing stronger, she stabbed into the hollows mask and her feet landed on the closest thing to shoulders the creature had. As soon as the hollow would start disappearing she would pull her zanpakutou back out and jump backwards to refocus on the web-spitter.
Another web was coming her way but this time she ran straight at it. Jumping over it at the last moment she let it fly past her. But this time the hollow was reacting much quicker and fired another in her path through the air. Only slightly surprised by this she promptly let herself fall to the ground with a tumble before getting up and advancing once again. Just as her blade was poised in a fatal blow, the creature attacked again. Both of them made contact. The blade made a deep slice through the mask but the creatures web had enveloped her, also.
With a cry of pain, Chiaki began pulling and cutting at the web to try and free herself. Each time she grabbed at it, it stung. But leaving it there hurt worse. So she struggled and tried cutting away the net as she bit back more cries. Angry red marks were forming on her skin and would need to be treated. With a final cut the web fell away and Chiaki scrambled away from it, her breathing heavy and her wounds stinging in the open air.
With a pained expression, she looked around herself trying to, either, affirm the hollow threat was neutralized, or if they made another move.

As he was turning around a corner he would hear a noise, of a wall breaking apart, letting a hollow in. He'd turn towards it as it was coming with it's claws towards him, trying to think of something to do without wasting to much energy, as there were more hollows left besides this one, and something that had caused them to appear, wether it be something dangerous or not. Grasping stone He would say as he started running away, having caught the hollow as it was trying to slash him, having succeded in making a slash across his face a little bit. Not deep, but kinda shallow, as he was gonna create a distance between them while the hollow was stuck for a bit.
This is not good, i can't keep using spells to freely, they are taking abit of energy. As he was thinking that he was preparing with a chanting of a prayer to gather strength for another spell, as the hollow would eventually come free,and likely chase him, if it came around the corner he was prepared and would shout out Hell Fire If he used it, he would be drained significantly now, as he would be breathing heavily, otherwise he would still be on the move waiting for when he could deal the spell to the hollow.

Miwa smiled as her shuriken made contact with the electrocuted Hollow, as the beast fell into a heap before vanishing into the air. That was one more down at the will of my Furina, Miwa thought to herself as her gaze turned towards the arachnid like Hollow pursuing the other girl. Bending her knees slightly, she was ready to strike at the beast before her gaze was diverted to something closer, a electrical pulse moving swiftly from underneath her feet which seemed to indicate another was preparing itself for an assault.
The electrical reading was distorted as Miwa couldn't tell the exact location of the fiend through all the conductors in the earth. However she would stand there, her eyes darting wildly back and forth, trying to determine where the beast would emerge from. Patience wasn't exactly her strong suit, but she made up for it in vigor and determination. She was fed up with waiting as she shoved the returning shuriken into the earth, as she sent a pulse of her reiatsu through it as the weapon shattered in an explosion, taking a bite out of the earth beneath her as Miwa went airborne.
Shielding herself from the debris that whipped at her face, she struggled to see through the dust cloud. A faint movement along with a brief pulse of electricity no doubt generated by reishi caught her attention as she obviously had uncovered the Hollow's location. As she descended, she formed a hammer into her hands, gripping the handle tightly in both hands as she sent the weight of the mallet crashing down onto the beast below in another display of raw power as she felt it hit home as a whiplike projection slashed outward across her face, cutting deep.
As she stood back up, she could feel the burns,still minor for the moment, across the entire length of her body as Furina coursed rampidly through her nerves. As she lifted the massive hammer over her petite frame, she glanced around, still unable to see a thing due to the dust cloud around her, although she could pick up two more pulses of electrical currents fluttering in and out, although they could possibly be headed in her direction. Miwa didn't know whether she'll be able to handle any more, the taxing pressure on her body was becoming unbearable as her strength seemed to be diminishing with every exertion of Furina. Her muscles were aching and her heart beating ferociously in her chest, starved for oxygen as her chest heaved up and down rapidly.
Hopefully, she could hold on just a bit longer.
