Slyx walked across the Moonlit sands as she sat on the one huge sand dune bank. Her eyes scanned across the sands to see if she can get something to eat this morning for she knew what time it was, it was the time where Hollows came out, but barely since they know that even Arrancar come out for food as well, but she was safe since her master was still Anubis's pet and a now key research tool. She stood up and growled as she could feel a weaker hollow, but a meal was a meal and bolted down the dune kicking up sand behind her as she used her flexibility to lower herself even more so to the ground so she was more aerodynamic and her body began to look like a blur as she bolted across the white sands of Hueco Mundo.
Her prey was in sight as she could see it was actually bigger then her, like, seven more feet taller. She had the surprise though, it's back was towards her and as she leapt off the ground and had her mouth open, the figure turned slowly and held it's arm up as she bit right down into it. The hollow let out a massive roar and took it's spare arm and smacked her off as it tore off half of it's arm. Her body bounced off the sand and was back on her paws in no time.
But a simple smack down was going to keep her from her meal. She began to Zig Zag around the massive creature that swung it's arms wildly trying to hit her and kicked up more sand in the air making it harder to see for it since she's use to it. She went low and clawed at it's Achilies ankels and made it fall to the ground screaming in pain as blood splattered everywhere.
Slyx jumped onto it pinning it's arms to the ground and ripped throat out with her sharp teeth. She began to devour upon the hollow that put up a somewhat challenge to her and when she was done, she remembered, she needs training so she can survive against anything else that comes after her.

The chimera walked into sight, as if on cue with the hollows thoughts of needing to grow stronger. He walked over running his hand across the piece of mask that remained attached to his head. He looked down at the hollow who stood on all fours as it devoured its meal, the chimera recognized it as the hollow that was free to enter Los Noches which was certainly rare. "Enjoying your meal?" The man would ask as he would step closer very slowly.
"A brutal victory, I like it." The man's voice laughed with a certain blood lust to it before he seemed to calm himself again. "I remember the days were I had to do the same thing, though I suspect for you it is a much different experience. Allowed to travel into Los Noches, you are quite interesting for a...regular hollow. I wonder though...how long can you hang on here with that body of yours?" He questioned placing his hand up to his chin and rubbing it carefully.
"We all need strength to live, it's the way of a hollow." He said with a shrug of his shoulders, "Perhaps you will let me see your strength? I find myself curious..." He trailed off, his eyes flashing with a red tint. "Yes...curious and hungry for a battle." He placed his right hand upon the hilt of his sword and looked over at the creature with clear intentions in his mind. "I am Virgil, the segunda espada. Now little hollow...dance for me!" He laughed as he removed the blade and thrust it into the ground causing a shock wave to go towards the hollow in an attempt to goad it into attacking.

She didn't say anything as she listened to what the person had to say to her. Her eyes went from the usual Yellow eyes to a Ruby red as she saw him take out his sword. She shook her head as she felt the attack, but used her own Reitsu and began to make the ground shake even more then he was making it. She bolted doing her Zig Zag motion. But when she went from side to side, she began to make her body move in and out to make it look as if she was bending the air around her. It was a little way to mess one's eyes up with the use of her reitsu. She was a few feet away from the Chimera, she side stepped any attack by using her reflexes into affect as she used her speed to her advantage. As she would dodge an attack, she would lung for the one leg, have all paws on it, leap off it to behind him, but her back legs would try and dig deep into it's legs as she would land and turn around. The red eyes on him.

Virgil would watch her zigzag around the shock wave caused by the sheer force of the swing of his sword, but made no attempt to stop her advance. He would watch her carefully as she made her way to him and leaped at his leg however as she leaped he would raise his leg and using the incredible power behind swat her away as she would try to attack it. Her back legs managed to cut into his skin slightly but his impressive strength would send her absolutely flying. Virgil seemed to make sure that the force behind the kick would be nonlethal however, and for the most part it would leave the hollow undamaged but instead just send her flying in the opposite direction.
"You must have something that puts you above the others...it's the only conceivable reason you'd be allowed in Los Noches...I certainly hope it isn't your physical might, or else I'll be disappointed." He would call out to the hollow as he began advancing to it, charging a cero in his right hand. "Because when it comes to strength none of the current espada can compare to me." He would jump into the air around the time Slyx would be able to stop herself, and it was here he would fire a cero at the hollow.

A smile crept over her face as she was tossed across the sands like a doll, but she would take her paws and before landing launch herself into the air right before the Cero hit the ground. She spun herself completely so she would be able to miss the beam. She landed and looked at the Espada. Then thought to herself as to what she could do and thought of the one thing her master saw her do. She lifted her head and made a howl like sound which in turn made the ground shake and Minos Grandes appeared towering to the sky with other Hollows, all there eyes on them both. She spat out some blood as she thought, 'You want to see why, fine, I'll give you the reason why I'm allowed.'
She snarled once and the hollows began to kick sand up and she blended into it as her Reitsu was masked by the Hollows that were around. She began to run through the sand like storm until she felt she was right under him. She'd jump up into the air With a Cero fully charged at the tip of her tail as she wrap her legs around the person's waist and arms holding his shoulders as her tip of her tail was aiming at his head as she whispered, "There is three reasons' why I'm allowed to do so...1.) I'm Fast and Agile and by feeling our powers, it seems I have the upper hand on that. 2.) I'm looked down on as a research experiment...and the most important one, 3.) I'm our Lord Anubis's Pet ....now, what's your choice...." The tip of her tail was right beside her head as it was pointed square middle of the back of Virgil's head.

Virgil had kept himself into the air as he watched the hollow summon some Gillian class menos. He was impressed to see so many hollows called at once and their movements were so large and clumsy that the storm of sand covered Slyx's movements from him. He unrolled his tail from his waist as he watched the hollows movements and prepared for Slyx to make her move.
Suddenly he would be pounced upon from right underneath him causing her to wrap around his waists and shoulders from behind, to which he did not seem to fight off. He then listened to her speak of her reasons for being allowed in Los Noches, a large grin across his face, which grew bigger with each reason. "You are agile, more so than I am that is for sure, but don't think I cannot keep up with you, you aren't that fast little hollow." His tail at that moment , which was right underneath where she had grapped him, came up and wrapped around her cero charged tail and easily pulled it away from his head, the strength of the pull would be enough to remove her from his body but the tail would hold onto her as he spun around to meet her eyes.
"The Pet of the Lord of the Deep? A long title...I find it curious one would purposelessly put themselves as the level of an animal...a pet. But that status is no longer of importance, unless the "new" Lord of the Deep considers you a pet as well." His tail would then throw her up into air with the same force as if his hands had thrown her into the air and he would fire a bala from his left had at her as he descended back to the ground. His sword would severe one of the gillians in half as he finally touched the ground. He looked up anxiously to see how Slyx would avoid his attack.

She smiled even more as she began to laugh as she was thrown into the air. She saw the Bala coming towards her. She began to think on what she could do so she did what anyone else would do back in her 'Past'. She aimed the tip of her tail and fired her Cero at the Bala. The amount of power stopped the Bala and was out matched as the Cero came racing down from the sky down towards Virgil. After the Cero was done, she dived down to the ground and landed making a somewha crater and sent out a shockwave in the ground as she stood up on her hind legs and looked at Virgil with her Ruby red eyes. Her tail wrapped around her waist as she waited to see what Virgil's next move will be. Her tail always had something interesting on it, the shape of a Crimson Crescent Moon with also what looked to be a broken number within the moon itself.

Virgil leapt away from the cero's blast, making sure to start moving the moment it fired to avoid any unnecessary damage. He rolled to his feet and swung his sword at the shock wave, the force of the swing causing the entire shock wave to dissipate. He looked over at the hollow and saw it stand on it's hind legs, wrapping her tail around her waist in anticipation of Virgil's next move. He looked at the hollow with interest, the crescent moon shape not escaping the arrancar's sight. "She is interesting, indeed...this is gonna be fun." The espada thought, with his grin still on his face.
At that moment another gillian would leap behind Virgil and the arrancar would spin around once easily severing it's head off. As the gillian's head fell to the sand Virgil would kick it with his right foot casually sending it flying like a canon ball at the other hollow.

She watched what happened as she meerly moved her body so the dead body would fly past her. Her eyes were still on Virgil as she didn't move but to avoid. Her tail's tip was behind her as another Cero was being charged. But she slowly began to walk towards Virgil. Her body swayed as she moved. She was about ten feet away where her tail quickly unwrapped around her waist and bolted towards Virgil, once she was six feet away, the tail came up like that of a Scorpion and fired the massively charged Cero and watched it soar towards him as the ground caved under the meer amount of energy she had built up in the cero. She knew the Arrancar would avoid it and so she ran behind the Cero using it as cover and when he moved out of the way, she would lung at him and do a spinning kick to his abs. She hoped away from him and waited.

Virgil stomped his feet into the ground with all of his strength, which caused him to leap upward a huge distance over the cero, as well as creating a crater where he once stood, as the powerful cero passed by him he watched it's power with interest. It was certainly strong for an Adjuchas class hollow. His attention to the cero left enough time for Slyx's actual attack to land on the arrancar as her legs cut into his ribs and sent him back towards the ground. He was stunned momentarily but flipped back onto his feet before he hit the ground, landing rather gently as he did.
"Reminds me of the good old days...hunting the strong so we could have more power! The days where we hunted, the days where I was the one who you relied on." He thought to himself, as if he was speaking to someone else in his head. "When it comes to battle you were the most willing, we could have fought as well but why waste the energy?" Another voice answered lazily, though it was ignored. He rose his head and stared at the hollow. The chimera was enjoying this greatly.
He would charge at the hollow and swing his sword down at the ground, sending another powerful shock wave from the sheer force of his physical might. He would then swing again, this time right at the hollow with the same force, if the attack was avoided another shock wave would be released from his power and most likely send the hollow backward.

Slyx would watch and hopped over the shockwave as he swung again, she would simply place her hand on his wrist and slide under him with the other hand punching him as hard she could right in the waist. She quickly stood up when she was a good distance from him. Her eyes never leaving him as she began to circle him. She could feel alot of energy and her adrenaline begin to kick in as she had a smile creep across her face.
"It would be a good fight if it wasn't for the fact that your using a sword against an opponent that doesn't have one...yet....hahahaha" Her voice echoed with a guest of wind that swirled by them as she began to hop on her feet and began to wait for Virgil's next move towards her.

The espada was knocked back slightly by the force of her kick as she swung around him like a monkey. He watched her maneuver away from him and comment about his sword, and how the fight would be more fun without out it and that she didn't have one...yet. "I did not want to insult you by not using my weapon, but I favor hand to hand myself if you desire to fight that way." He stated rather simply and sheathed the sword without any hesitation. "You have no excuse anymore, the fight HAS to be good now hahaha..." He laughed along with her lifting his hands up and bending his fingers as he prepared to fight directly with them.
He would run towards her with his right arm raised preparing to swing it down upon her but just as he got in range his tail would whip the ground and pole vault him upward, where he would instead send a kick at the hollow. The tail, still stuck into the ground would swing forward allowing him to chase her if the attack landed, and as he caught up to her he would swing his right fist down at her. His attacks were powerful, but were not enough to kill the hollow if they connected. "I expect you to use that sword against me once you've final obtained it, we can fight on a whole other level then." He told her excitedly as he continued his attacks, he was beginning to gain a liking towards the hollow.

As she watched, she saw him bolt towards her. When she saw him go into the air, she quickly spun her whole body so the kick to the head was avoided, but something wasn't right to him, when he looked, her hand had his ankel as well as her tail. She had a smile on her face as she began to spin him and let get as he soared through the air. She began to laugh insanely as she ran after him, but this time, on all fours for she was faster that way. Her agile body ran across the sand like wind across the ground. She saw him regain himself but wasn't fast enough to see her bolting towards him. When she was a few feet away, she lunged at him, but balled herself up and made what looked to be a spinning ball at him. If he moved out of the way, she would fly by and bounce on the ground, uncurl herself and get ready for him, if he wasn't able to move in time, her whole body would hit him with a force that it would send him flying backwards.

Karzan had once again decided to wander around the desert, and stopped as he felt two strong reiatsu's spiking. Walking to the source, he eventually found Anubis' old pet, and the Segunda Espada in a fight. At first he was going to turn and leave, but then he realized with sudden glee that the annoying fox Hollow was now at his mercy, since Lord Anubis was no longer here.
"Hello Slyx," Karzan would say flaring his reiatsu so that the two combatants would take notice of his presence, "and hello Virgil. Hope you don't mind if I join in."
Not waiting for an answer, Karzan charged and fired a Cero in between the two fighters, then leaped toward Slyx with his Sonido, and kicked at her, not holding back in speed or power.

She felt the spike and saw the Cero and avoided it in time, but couldn't do anything about the kick. She went sliding across the sand dunes. She snarled as she slowly stood back up and looked at Karzan. Her anger was getting to her but she didn't do anything about it, but slowly she let the anger go as she stood up calmingly as she spat out a thing of blood and shook her head.
"What do you want Karzan?"

"You shouldn't be talking like that to the Lord of Despair," Karzan said with a laugh, "and I want exactly what I said a few moments ago, to join in on this fight. Lord I may be in name, but I still need to develop the power behind it. A fight is the best way for our kind to evolve after all."
Dashing at Slyx again, he snatched at the fox's tail, then swung it around once before tossing it as hard as he could at Virgil, then fired 3 Bala in the same direction.

((Blargh, skipped in posting order, don't do that. ._.))
Virgil caught Slyx with his tail, it's strength was more than enough to stop her from flying into him. He then pulled it upward out of the way for him to fire off a cero with both his hands to block the incoming bala. "Actually I do mind OH lord of the deep, find a fight worth fighting, don't steal from ours!" The Chimera yelled over to his superior. His tail lowered slowly and unraveled to allow Slyx to escape its grasp. "We aren't here to help the Lord of the Deep, we're here to help ourselves." He said rather blankly, removing his sword again.
"It's hard to "evolve" as you put it when the Lord of the Deep is out for blood so often, why not try and enjoy yourself instead of aiming to destroy your allies, life needs some relaxation." His voice was a bit more tired as he yawned and scratched the top of his head, although it seemed he was defending the hollow in some weird way. "With your attitude there won't be anyone left to help you "evolve" anyway." He sighed and spun his sword lazily as he stepped in front of Slyx, facing Karzan. "Why not just leave us be for now. The Lord of the Deep and I may fight later if he so wishes." The man suggested rather blankly.

She fell to the ground as she was let go from the grasp of Virgil's tail. She was surprised that he saved her from the fate that Karzan had in mind. She knew now, she was an outcast once again. She escaped her fate for a second time. She looked down at the ground as her tail laid next to her as the Crescent moon was visible to her. Slyx was on her hands and knees, still looking at the moon on her tail as if trying to piece together what it ment, but it wasn't time to look at designs at one's own body. She slowly stood up as she was a bit shook up and hurt a bit from the hits that was sustained upon her body. The tip of her tail was behind her as she stood there somewhat hiding behind Virgil as she knew she couldn't go against karzan, not now atleast.
Her mind began planning as she knew she needed more training and needed it away from his knowledge. She needed alot of help for this. Eight normal Hollow out of the ground and stood by her sides as they growled and snarled at karzan. four of them was much bigger then she was and the others were around her height. It was her group of small hollows that she controlled, weaker hollows, but hollows that would do anything that she commanded.

"Don't test me Virgil," Karzan said suddenly cold, "I may not be as powerful as Lord Anubis, but I could still kill you if I tried to."
Walking towards the two fighters now, Karzan glared at the weak Hollows surrounding Slyx, as if daring them to try anything. When he was finally standing face to face with Virgil, he turned his gaze on the Segunda Espada and continued to speak.
"I'm not 'out for blood' as you put it," he said in a tone that clearly said he saw Virgil as inferior, "while I find that little fox repulsive, I wouldn't be so stupid as to kill it. This fox enjoys the favor of Lord Anubis, and though he is absent, I retain hope that he will return, and I wouldn't incur his wrath with something so petty as a personal dislike for an annoying weakling who thinks she's Espada material."
Turning his attention now the the cowering fox. "You disgust me, not merely because you are weak," Karzan snarled at Slyx, "but because you summon more weaklings to fight for you, showing just how much of a coward you are."
Walking back a distance now, Karzan turned and continued to speak, but to the collective group this time, "Now I will be staying here, and I will be fighting. If you have any objections, then you'll just have to fight me for real, and I assure you that won't be pretty."

"I have to test the Lord of the Deep, who else will refine him as a leader?" His Tone sounded ambiguous, it was hard to tell if he was serious or sarcastic. With in a moment though, his eyes flashed red as a scowl appeared on his face. "The Lord of the Deep talks down to a hollow as if it meant something. We were all like her once before." The segunda snarled at the arrancar, glancing over at Slyx for a brief moment as he talked. "The old Lord of the Deep seemed to be able to realize at least that." He stopped twirling his sword and clenched it tight within his right hand. "If you refuse to leave this is gonna end with us fighting one way or the other..." he began before his eyes seemed to lower lazily, continuing, "...so let's get this over with, I'm already tired of this conversation." He proceeded to yawn, rubbing his left eye with his left hand.
Randomly, as he seemed to rub his eye, a bala was fired out of the hand unexpectedly from it towards Karzan. At the same time his tail stabbed into the ground underneath him and the sand and his right hand dropped his sword with incredible force to create a huge sandstorm of dust from the shear strength of the swing. "Fight with me, hollow." He invited with some form of pride as he tilted his head slightly to look over at Slyx. "I see strength where he does not." He admitted before focusing his attention back to the battle.
