Karzan exited the Garganta, sealing his powers as he did so, and collapsed on his throne, gripping at an injury he had incurred during the battle he had just left. He sent one of his servants-the one who was not injured, to fetch someone from the medical squad, to come and tend to the wounds of himself, the wounded servant, and the Espada and the Hollow that would be following him shortly.
"Those people are not going to be pleasant to deal with in the future..." Karzan said with one eye closed against the pain, "...the woman already hates me for injuring her 'slaves', and the fat one just disgusts me..."

Virgil entered next with Slyx in his one arm and sword in the other as he had reverted to his normal form upon his return to Heuco Mundo. "My that was certainly something interesting, wouldn't you say my dear lord of the deep?" The segunda laughed excitingly as he lightly placed Slyx to the ground and clapped his hands together several times. "Watching those souls die to the strong, it was such a beautiful thing." He laughed again chaotically somewhat before taking a breath to calm himself down. What should our next move be Lord of the deep? he asked his leader, kneeling down and petting the top of slyxs head lightly as Karzan mentioned Slavery and Gluttony.
"Speaking of the fat one...lord of the deep." Virgil brought up with a more level headed attitude. "I have a theory on him. I'm sure the lord of the deep has probably figured it out already, but it couldn't hurt to debate the topic." He smiled and gave a light bow as a compliment. "It appeared that he could only do that shinigami magic when he was in the fat form...when he became that tiger like creature he abandoned all techniques and focused purely on physical attacks and speed, it was hard not to witness his prowess in brute force. It would seem that depending on his form at the time his powers are...I suppose "locked" is a good word." He said nodding quietly while scratching his chin. "What says the lord of the deep?" He asked, wanting to hear his opinion on the matter.

"It's unwise to make such assumptions," Karzan said in response to Virgil's theory, "it could very easily be an attempt to make us think that way. Always expect the worst from your enemy...and drop the 'my dear lord of the deep' nonsense, if you're going to address me with such stupid terms as 'my dear' you might as well just call me by my name."

"It was but a theory...however, a sound judgment as always Lord of the Deep." Virgil said as he lifted his hand from Slyx and allowed her to do as she pleased for the time being. Virgil lifted himself up to hear Karzan scold him somewhat, almost humorously so. The espada did not seem to laugh, but actual react rather dramatically as he yelled out, "Unacceptable, Lord of the deep!" he said lifting his hands up in dramatic fashion. "The one given the title of Lord of the Deep has received it for a reason and should be addressed as such, I am incapable of calling the lord of the deep by anything else!" He said as if he was deftly serious, bowing to the lord of the deep. It could have very well been in a mocking tone, but it was always hard to tell with Virgil and his split personalities.

Slyx laid on the floor almost about to drift into sleep as she hear Karzan and Virgil going at it. She slowly stood up as her left eye began to twitch. She couldn't believe what she was hearing, The lord of the deep complaining and a bit whining about being called Lord of the Deep from Virgil, but seeing as Virgil was being Dramatic, she didn't know which one was worse. She shook her head and let her Reiatsu Flare just once so they both got the picture that this wasn't the time nor place to be acting like Children. The black eyes looked at Karzan and began to speak.
Virgil is right though in his theory for The Plum-pis fat Sal ugly thing. It only used that magic stuff when in it's....disgusting form of over weightiness and ugliness. But when it turned into that Animal form and showed everyone up that fought it, it used pure speed and strenght...no magic. So when it's in between shifting, that's when it's abilities are locked since it's converting into something else and abilities are lacking when shifting, so I would say that is the best time to strike that fat P.O.S and end it's meaningless life once and for all.
Slyx stood there as that was the longest she has ever had said anything before the Lord of the Deep. She had a smile over his face as she felt some what proud of the fact that she voiced her own opinion and helped back up Virgil's a bit, but the smile would fade away when her black eyes looked Virgil and shook her head. No more drama my dear Virgil....

"I'm aware that its likely Slyx," Karzan said with a glare to the fox, "but like I've said to Virgil, its equally possible his non-use of magic in that form is either a ploy or just a preference. My point, is that it is best to be cautious and not rule out the idea that he could still use his magic in that form."
Sighing to himself, Karzan turned back to Virgil, a bored look in his eyes. "I never said not to address me as Lord of the Deep, Karzan said lazily, "I said to drop all the 'my dear' crap you put before it, and expressed that I'd probably prefer to be addressed by name as opposed to that drivel...the honorifics those stupid humans use would allow you to address me by name...mind you I can't remember which of the damn things is usually applied to someone of greater stature."

"If that is what you're wish my-" He began to say before stopping himself, laughing somewhat. "-ahem, I mean Lord of the Deep. I will not express myself in such a way, however Lord of the Deep shall be the Lord of the Deep's name so long as the Lord of the Deep carries the title." He gave a respectful bow, showing a more of an opposite reaction to Karzan's annoyance. With a yawn he looked down at Slyx as she addressed him. Giving a nod as she asked for him to stop with the drama, he joking said, "I've never been one for the dramatics anyway...heheh. I'll stop for now, my dear Slyx." With a light chuckle he bent down and scratched behind her ears in playful gesture. "And what of our vizard companions? Were they lost in the battle?"

"I imagine they'll be fine," Karzan said tapping his feet impatiently, "I left the gate open in case they feel like making their retreat.
Just as Karzan was about to stand and go look for the servant he had sent to get the medical staff, he returned, with a medic Arrancar, who Karzan directed to his injured servant, before turning back to Virgil. "If they have died, it would be a sad loss," Karzan said shaking his head, "but neither Kuro, nor Jin seem the type to stay and die a stupid death. Mind you, Kuro has shown himself to be a hot headed person...and that Onigami unit leader...Maigo I think his name was...that mans was being just plain stupid. Instead of defending the castle like he should have been, he was out fighting people who outclassed him on a scale that is unbelievable."

"Yes, and what worthless people he was trying to protect." Virgil sighed as he thought of the foolish Onigami captain, "The weak are destined to die and be assimilated by the strong, he was only wasting everyone's efforts and time by fighting opponents who outclassed him so, instead of rounding up the strong and leaving the weak. I find it hard to believe such people were considered allies to the Vizards." Virgil rolled his eyes thinking about how pathetic the remnants of those Onigami were, not that it really mattered now as most were either mindless zombies or would be destroyed in whatever Gluttony had planned to do with his immense power.
"Heal me last." He told the medic arrancar as it began to heal the servants and the others. "I received no injuries on the field" He explained as he cracked his neck a bit to stretch it. "Regardless..." He continued, "We'll need to draw in more power for our next encounter with them."

"You and Slyx can continue your training on your free time," Karzan said in response to Virgil's comment as the medic moved onto to heal him, "I will go out and see if I can't find any powerful Hollows who would be willing to turn into Arrancar. I know of a place where many Hollows have taken refuge. I will be training with who ever I can find out there.""

"Certainly, Lord of the Deep." Virgil ran his left hand through his hair, playing with the piece of his mask that attached itself like a bang of hair. "Once the lord of the deep has gathered a few more hollows for use and I have continued my training with Slyx...it may be best for us to spar again. It's always fine to teach those with potential like Slyx more strength...but training with those who are equal or stronger would benefit us both as well. I consider the Lord of the Deep to be stronger than me, and feel I could gain much from our training together." He offered Karzan if he wished to spar with the espada again. It made sense, training a hollow was good for the hollow, but if the espada could both learn and adapt by fighting each other as well if not more so.

"We will spar in the future," Karzan responded, "and I am not much more powerful than you...I intend to fix that. By the time we are ready to spar with each other, I should be far beyond your power...no offense Virgil, but I wouldn't trust you with my life outside of a fight. I trust very few people."

Slyx stood up on her hind legs to her full extent of her height and stretched her limbs. The medic Arrancar healed her then to Karzan. She let out a low yawn as she rubbed her eyes a bit as the talking was making her get sleepy. When her eyes opened again, they would be looking at Karzan. The two voices that came out of her voice bounced off the walls as she spoke to them.
"How do you expect to survive if you don't trust the ones that are around you since you are the Lord of the Deep until Anubis returns, then what? You will be put back as an Espada under his Command and then those that you don't trust won't help you when you need it. Me, I may only be a low living Hollow, but I put my life in everyone's hands and I don't expect anything else from anyone...."
She shrugged her shoulder blades as she started to leave the room and when she was at the door way, she turned her head a bit and was facing towards Virgil.
"You coming or what? And the Onigami were to nice to have as a snack hahaha..."
She would start to leave again and walk out going towards the ruins that she was at previously and she felt she was more then ready to go back to face and train their even more.

"I was Second in Command before Lord Anubis left," Karzan said as Slyx was leaving, "so my position will remain as such when he returns...you should consider becoming an Arrancar soon Slyx. Not all Hollows are meant to become Vasto Lordes, and becoming an Arrancar gives you the opportunity to go beyond that level, without all the tiresome devouring of your fellows....just think about it...you'll be much more useful if you make the change."

"Yes...well," Virgil rose to his feet, unfazed by his leaders words of mistrust, "I do enjoy a challenge, Lord of the Deep." He gave him a grin as the medics finished up on the two. To his surprise Slyx spoke up on the matter of trust, it was different to hear a hollow so openly express themselves that way. It was dangerous to live that way in heuco mundo and a bold thing to say to those who were much stronger than her, but yet this was one of the reason Virgil enjoyed her company so much. "She'll join our ranks so enough, Lord of the Deep. Her power will be able to challenge ours when she does, this I guarantee, but it is not something to rush. She has much more power to gain until she will become an arrancar. " When she motioned for him to follow, clearly with the intent on continuing their training Virgil couldn't help but laugh. "Yes, yes...I'm coming. I'll take you to a place where there is plenty to feed upon..." he would follow her and give a nod to Karzan and leave him to whatever he was to do.

Kuro would step through the garganta finally very slowly with a blank stare on his face. How could he not know of such powerful people? On top of that he would remember the Captain Commander of the shinigami, who in fact Kuro was there much longer than had some knowledge on them. Where had they come from, and exactly what had they come for? Destruction, no that couldnt had been it.. If so they would have started with the human world at least thats what Kuro thought. Why had they attacked the Onigami wiping them out in one day? Where the ex-royals upset with the Onigami? The questions would come to Kuro all day if he wouldnt snap out of it. Shaking his head as if clearing his mind he would walk towards Karzan.
" Something isnt right about those people.. They show up from nowhere with such tremendous powers.. They wiped out a proud and powerful race of warriors within minutes."
Kuro would stop a few feet away from The Lord Of Deep an serious look in his eyes now. "I heard a part of you guy's conversation and no offense Karzan, but you know like I know that you strength needs to grow in order for you to be effective in stopping whatever they may be planning. Just as I will need to improve my strength as well.. From now on I want you to come to Viz Co.. There we will train together increasing each other's skil so that whenever anything does go down we will be ready.."
Kuro would smirk at Karzan as he finished his sentence, he knew he was much stronger than him but Kuro was once in the same situation with Jin. If he wanted to get stronger he would have to adapt learn how to fight those stronger than him not by pure power all the time, but with his wits. Something that Kuro was teaching Maho to this day.

"It seems the human saying is true," Karzan said smiling, "great minds do indeed think alike. I cannot spend all my time there though. I still have my responsibilities...I have plans to expand the number of Arrancar in Las Noches, and those plans include training powerful Hollows on my free time. I already have an expedition planned to see if I can find any hiding in the Mirrored Cave."
Karzan was glad to be given the opportunity to train with Kuro, but he was no fool. If he did not train with others as well, he wouldn't catch up to Kuro. Every moment spent out of Kuro's company would be spent extending his reach, and gaining new power.
"We can start when ever you like," Karzan said politely, "but I ask that you give me time to prepare, my planned expedition comes first."

Nodding his head Kuro would step away from the arrancar, "Of course I cannot expect for you to up and leave your duties.. That would make you unfit to lead, but when you're ready you know where to come.. Now If there is nothing else you wish to speak of I would like to ask if you may open an garganta, so that I may head home as I too have a busines to run." Kuro would ask as he looked towards the door everyone had exited. It had been awhile since he had last been in this throne room, and it didnt look like it had changed a bit. Anubis being the fool he was had wandered off, something Kuro had grown acustom to over the years.
((Short but meh))

"Certainly my friend," Karzan said as he snapped his fingers to open the Garganta, "I may bring a guest with me when I come. If I'm going to be training a Hollow personally, I may as well have them get in on my training with you."
As he waited for Kuro to leave, Karzan thought about what he would do when he started training with the Visard. Kuro was no fool, but Karzan was sure if he thought about it hard enough, he could outsmart Kuro in a fight. It was only a matter of how he handled the situation.
