The dark alleyways oh how have you been my sanctuary in the worst times of my life especially today where I had tangled with the wrong people. Men dressed in casual clothing were seen running up and down the streets in a frantic search for something or someone...Who was I kidding they were after me and not just searching but out for blood! I had overplayed my deck in a game a poker with one of the bossmen of a rather large criminal game he bet a few things that were over his head yet he didn't seem concerned about the money now he was one of the top dogs and wouldn't take losing to a girl who ehehe Cheated during the game. Oun grappled her right arm in agony though she was hush hush about it as the night was now here only cover since she abused the hell out of her powers to get out of the bossman's turf and to this area now.
"Haaa...Ugh...Guuhhh" Painful groans of an expiated girl were heard from Oun at the lowest levels the goonies though on the prowl had lost most of their enthusiasm of the hunt since it began they were straying too far into the metropolis district and near where cops patrolled. Soon after much fervent yelling they finally ceased their pursuit and headed back home. Oun sighed in relief as the goons departed she emerged from her hiding spot to take rest on a nearby bench clutching her right arm. As far as wounds were concerned Oun was unscathed but her powers had a rather nasty side effect if overused that was causing her to both sweat bullets and causing a surge of both pain and numbness in her right arm.
She tried massaging it slowly "I'm okay...I'm okay....I'm....Guhhhh!" She slowly whispered but broke into a rather painful grunt as she fell on the bench laying sideways as her sight filled with a fiery vision of destruction that distorted frequently going into the vision and then reality. Never really could be understand these things but lately it was getting worse with the discovery of monsters called Hollow's and humans like herself that had these powers some of them didn't these side effects how unfair why was she one of the few to be born with it! Her mind was fearful of the things she might see if she opened her eyes what would it be? Death, Machine monsters, a world in agony or perhaps all the above it was never a pleasant sight and she would see it if she fell asleep now anyway. Sternly she stood up taking a deep breaths as she scoured the area making sure there were no goons yet she couldn't shake the feeling something familiar was still nearby she could never pin point it but her arm was very much numb and in agony so if this thing was hostile she'd probable have no chance.

Addict had been laying on one of the many street lamps lining the road watching the people pass by without being noticed by them. He hadn't noticed the shadier people because he hadn't been looking at them. What had caught his eye was the girl from earlier on the bridge. He had watched her as she sat down on a bench some distance away.
The way the girl moved clutching her right arm in discomfort, she was injured. A flare of anger promptly fared up in him but died instantly as he noticed it, why should he care if she was injured. slowly he began to crawl down from his perch and began to make his way toward her, he stopped a fair distance away to show he meant no harm. Placing one claw to his lips he blew across it letting off a loud, shrill note that would carry for quite a distance. Then placing both his arms behind his head in a relaxed manner he called out "You need any help over there?"

The vision intensity nearly all but ceased when she felt a presence nearby it grew closer but why did it cease because it possibly sensed danger? Maybe but it didn't change the fact her arm was still deafening numb. Yet a voice beckoned her condition a rather familiar one at that slow turning her head to it's source she would lay eyes upon a familiar monster. With skin like a reptile and body of that of a well built man she couldn't miss it for the world who this person was, she clutched her right arm a bit hard as corrosion would seep into the bench from her numb right arm apparently it was subconsciously using it's power despite feeling nothing from the arm.
"It's you...Aren't you supposed to be trying to eat me or something that's what that strange guy says monster's like you usually do...Guhah!" She answered back with a question first ignoring his inquires on her health but the moment she did her right arm's hand clutched around the bench seat the moment it did that part of the bench broke into tiny particles of what was once wood seemingly that her body was having some sort of strange reaction mostly seemed sore from her power making her incredible stiff. Upon getting closer he would probable notice her aura though once tan from afar had an eerie black tagging at the end of her reiatsu that oddly seemed to be a repellent of some sort it had no effect upon him but seemed to ward off something.
"I didn't wander into one of your area's again did I? Man gramp's must be sore at me today for making so many mistakes well if you want a good meal now's a good chance for ya..." She stated still sweating heavily and utterly sore from her right arm this probable would be her end if this creature wanted a meal mentioning the fellow they met on the bridge not too long ago as of no doubt she seemed to have listened to him quite a deal though information on this creature she still hardly had no clue on.

"Only gluttons and the weak feed on humans, I have not done so for over a hundred years, but in general it is a good idea to avoid spiritual creatures."
Addict watched as the wood disintegrated under her hand, he stared at it more from shock than anything but slowly he moved toward her with his arms still behind his head in a relaxed manner. When he finally got close enough that he could actually see the corrosive residue on her hand and on the bench he stopped and just stared at it in disbelief. She was creating an acid that could instantly destroy the structural integrity of wood, he wondered if it had the same effects on metals and plastics. His focus came back to the girl who was still in discomfort.
"Your hurt" It was more of a statement than a question. Then looking as the bench again, and with obvious concern in his voice he said "You should't be out here like this"

"Pfft you sound like a tired old wiseman well since I'm beneath your stomach I guess I don't haveta worry about being dinner now do I Izzu?" She stated with a playful tone as if enjoying giving a nickname to him rather daring one would say or damn well foolish. She then released her grip on her left hand and guided her right arm onto her knee so no more property would be damaged as a result. It seemed to have no effect upon her skin the moment it touched whatever damage it did bench seemed to be only effective against objects. She gave a rather upset look as he suggested that she shouldn't be out in the open while being injured.
"Normally I'd agree with ya but sad thing is I didn't start out like this...It just freaking started happening after I..." She stopped as if not wanting to tell the rest of the story but really what harm was there in telling a lizardman that nobody could see? Not much but in reality though she wanted to spare him from the whole story. "Well let's just say some people got hurt some got poorer, and alot of things got broke and now I've got a really bad ache on my arm jeez...Though I've never used it as much as I did today guess I overloaded it or something...Ahhhh" She explained yawning at the end as it seemed her eyes were about to collapse into a sleep oddly she was fighting against it with all her might trying desperately not to fall asleep with drowsy eyes she looked at the monster perhaps the reason she wasn't screaming in terror at him was the fact she was near half asleep?

Addict chuckled at being called a wise man and the nickname she had given him, but but that all stopped as he saw her place the right hand on her leg. His mind started racing, the acid doesn't seem to effect he skin.... well she could be immune to her own acid... or it isn't acid at all. The whole time he was not really listening to her.
"Mi criatura," He said with a smile "You robbed some people and now your karma's being a bitch." He continued to stare at he hand for a while before all humor left his voice and it took on a slight edge before he demanded "What exactly can you do with this 'power' of yours?"
This entire time he had been slowly moving closer to her

"Oh nothing serious maybe break down a few things and tamper with them to rig em in my favor ya know the small stuff and since people can't see the corrosion just makes my job easier. Hell I expected you shoulda already known theres no such thing as karma. I just overstayed my welcome with taking on the wrong person...The guy was quite the sore loser and didn't give me so much as a second to think on how I was going to escape so I went nuts breaking down a few walls and whatnot but...This is the first time I've nearly keeled over because of it." She explained to the hollow seeing as how she could only wait until her right arm cooled down from it's overexertion which nearly seemed to paralyze her whole body. Though her power seemed to stem from the usage of machines capable of breaking them down or to tamper with them so they could be of use them their effects on nature or in crafting would probable still seem like mystery to him. Though her biggest cocern would always be her vision as it was now transfixing her line of sight with a variant world in flames with destroyed building, littered with skeleton's some took up defensive positions while others just seem massacred on the spot rather a nerve racking sight but she was used to it by now.
"I...I dunno if you'll belive me but I can see things when I nearly get like this not the usual stuff like creatures like you or spirits. There's this other place looks like this spot but stretching into the whole city which wouldn't bother me if everyone in it weren't dead in the street and every building ever built either breaking down or destroyed even then I can still hear screams in the distance. Seems kinda weird isn't it?" She stated only mentioning only half of her dreams the city of death but not of the machines that would serve as the creatures of her nightmares that would plague upon the surviving resident's with weapons that seems made of an unconventional method as if torn from their inside.
"I've never told anyone about this and now the first person i'm telling is someone who isn't even human man now I feel kinda dumb and by the way what the heck does that "me critedo" mean sounds foreign gah!" She asked the hollow in some hope of that he could figure out her power perhaps but also seemed a bit troubled as she would now notice how close he was to her now rather close too close... "Heyyy now...I thought you said I was below your food chain...So um what's with that smile creeping me out a bit here..." She stated with a rather frightful tone this time unsure of his daring advance of whether he was hungry or intended something different altogether.

"You would be amazed what a soul will believe when it has been walking an endless desert where the sun never rises and the only thing to see are other like myself devouring all they can find just so they can continue to exist for as long as it can remember." He said sadly in response to he comment about karma. He listened to the rest of what she had to say in silence.
"I am sorry, it is just that you described this city in such a way that it calls to my base natures... but I will not harm you without cause." He slowly eased his weight back onto his haunches which would let him get a better view of the bench that was disintegrated 'I am missing something... it is here right in front of me... what is it?[/color]' he thought to himself his eyes never leaving the bench. 'wait...[/color]"people can't see the corrosion" that's what it was... people can't see it because it is spiritual, but even a spiritual acid would leave a mark a regular person would be able to see, unless the effect itself is also spiritual... In which case' Addict looked up at the girl "Do you even know HOW what you do works?"

"All I know it's corrosion not acid as much as I wish it was...I'd melt some people realllllllllllly good ehehe..." She stated with a hinted tone filled with malice toward some unknown person's that were obviously not present at the time followed by a chuckle that was for a villainess. She didn't seem to be aware of the limits of her power that seemed to be having a overlord effect.
"It just hurts like hell right and doesn't ever work on human flesh but..." She began to say and she turned to Adicto with a most dastardly grin upon her face. "I've never tested on monsters before maybe it'll have some sort of healing effect eh? Why don't we test it out? Hehehe..." She stated using her left hand to guide her unstable right toward Aditco her finger rapidly moving up and down rather perversely.
"Now just hold still I'll be gentle if your good ehehe!" Now she seemed to be enjoying this little attempt at experimenting Adicto could easily avoid her advance or even stop it by grabbing her arm of her right hand. Though as it drew closer he would sense on anonymous energy that would throw his sense oddly around it wasn't hostile but it seem fluent as if incorporating anything it touched into itself though not in a takeover manner as it did the bench.

Addict watched the girl as she raised her hand with effort toward him, he doubted that anything her power could do would help him, let alone heal him, but he was equally sure that any damage, if any, he would obtain would be easy to deal with, but in all honesty he was curious. As her hand came closer to him a smile came to his face. Slowly he leaned closer to the girl to make it easy for her to reach him while at the same time closing his eyes.
As he would feel her touch him he would think, did she really want to test her power, or did she just want to touch him

As her hand approached Oun cleaver look started to hesitate as she looked up at Addicto he was smiling which made her blush a bit unsure whether he actually wanted her to touch him or if he was just catering to her whims. "Hey...You better not be getting any strange idea's this is just an experiment...I'm not doing this because...Because...It's just curiosity!" She shouted trying to find the right excuse but mostly just perverse things just came to mind leading to her odd but semi truthful excuse. Her hand finally made contact with Addicto's skin at first a brief silence followed from her "Nothing...What a bust ah well let's-ugh...EHHH! I can't move it!" She panicked trying to move her hand off of him with augusto effort but to no avail.
"Damn it you should've told me your skin was this sticky! Let me just AH!" She grasped her head with her other hand as a pulsating surge shot through her head in a near instant Oun's eyes would go white showing she had passed out with her hand still touching Addicto in a few moments he would also feel a power pulsating attack upon his mind though unlike Oun who saw nothing before she blacked out Addicto would see Oun still with white eyes sitting up before him. "The absence of presence...The never ending timeline...All fading away carry over with me to the terror that is my calling..." She would speak though in not her usual tone more like a wise woman than anything else. After that however he would fade to black as well his eyes forced shut by the pulsating pain.
In but a few moments he would awaken his eyes would gaze upon a sky filled to the brim with smoke and fire so much so the sun glory was tangled into an orange glow with making it seem it was setting when it was clearly full in the sky. He would feel different stronger...Faster than he ever before had this place empowered him? When he would gaze around the he found himself in the same area as himself and Oun were standing just a few moments ago yet most of the places around formerly a very successful shopping district was now a place filled to the brim with death. There were corpses everywhere most skeleton's whom didn't appear to have been burned away by human weapons rather most of their bones were corroded with blood showing that their flesh had been ripped apart instead as some of it was still attached to a few bodies rotted to the core.
Some of the corpses were in small groups obviously adorning Military uniforms though they were weaponless oddly enough probable already looted from what insanity had claimed this place. From a distance he would hear thunderous sound looking instantly up into the sky he would see artillery shells flying toward the park district if he listened carefully he would hear gunfire coming from that direction easily he could travel through the ruined buildings to the destination.
(And I god modded a bit here sorry oh boy...I gotta really try harder ta work around that anyway! Addicto you basically in my futured reality that I see in my dreams and you can be whatever you want right now an Arrancar a vastro lorde or the same addicto just power housed to wheres my character I'll leave ya with two options if you want me to explain what Oun's seeing press 1 if you want me to keep it a secret until you two meet *Varying how depending on your actions here* Press 2 ^^ Long OOC I know ><.)

(sorry it has taken me so long to post)
As Addict heard the artillery being fired and the sounds of a battle he quickly ran down the streets jumping and sliding over the ruble that seemed to fill the area until he was able to make his way toward the the park, the destruction he saw along the way was amazing and seemed to excite a part of him he thought he had under control. His blood lust began to rise as he made his way to the park every site making him grow more eager, until he actually got to the park. He stood there just out side the park and was stunned
The site before him was unique to say the least

(No troubles you were out on vaction can't really expect ya to post ^^ and don't worry about the short posts it'll probably be that way since you're going to be just making decisions of what to say and whatnot)
When he arrived at the park the place seemed like a place that had long forgotten itself riddled with dead trees and grass mostly charred and stemming with weeds littered with the corpses of fallen men in uniform some fresh others all bone. Constantly artillery would hit whom they were fighting seem bare the battle appeared all over since the shells were all one could hear no battle cries or pain just silence until a black figure slowly appeared from the brushes his body completely covered in a black cloak his front body proportions having some sort of corroded flak armor while his face was hidden with a gas mask. He raised his left hand as if singling others when he did so a flood of creatures would descend from whence he came they were machines of all kinds cars,bus's even home appliances such as toasters vacuum cleaners yet they had their own legs growing grotesquely out of their main bodies with deformed mouths dripping with a black ichor as if hungering perhaps for the slaughter to come. all came in rushing toward the direction of the artillery but the man turned toward the direction of Additico when he did a greater host of the beasts would stop and gather around him awaiting for his beck an call.
"Yet another beast from the land of our lord emerges into this plane...For what purpose I ponder? Like the swordsmen in black doesth thou intend to prevent our sacred work? Or is it just here simply to feed like so many of thy's other brethren?" He spoke in a in a unrecognizable tone mostly due to the gas mask he was wearing he seemed rather busy with his duty in leading the creatures into battle against the soldier's yet he patiently stood with both arms crossed awaiting the response from the beast.

Addict began to slowly advance towards the man, but a such an angle that it looked more like he would just walk past him
"Oh, if I was here to feed puny human I would have devoured you on sight. Sadly there are few humans that can relieve the hunger of a hollow such as myself, but I will congratulate you on one thing, you are the first human to annoy me in this world. I will remember that" Addict stopped his advance and just stared into the mask the... man wore before coming to a decision "Actually human when I appeared a... friend of mine disappeared. You wouldn't happen to have seen a girl about five feet tall, brown hair, talks kinda funny sometimes? Also remove your mask, I would like to memorize the face under it for the next time I find myself consumed by boredom"
Threw out all this Addict had focused his reiatsu to both his hands and tail, he did not trust the man nor the machines beside him. He would be prepared for any hostility.

The man gave a rather cheerful chuckle at Adicto's query and anger as if not all afraid but gave pause as if taken very careful consideration into his words. "Haven't seen a girl of that description in awhile or any girls since most of them are in shelters now or lying abound." He stated as casual stance but seemed a bit baffled at his demand of his identity. "Ah now that is troubling I don't have any problem revealing but you might-" Before he could finsih a large bang a shot fired from probable a human fired directly at the well covered man powerful it was for his head clearly flew off and onto the floor. Eagerly the creatures scattered about to look for the assassin. Yet despite the blow the man's now headless body stood tall maybe a short burst before it fell yet it did not. "Hah...They never learn my hopeless former breathern." The head that was knock aground spoke as the body moved toward the head picking up it's former piece.
"As I was going to say you might find it hard to decipher my appearance...For it's quite common." He stated shifting off the gas mask as it fell to the ruined concrete revealing a skull with two red globes replacing it's eye socket's showing a power that was over him but not coming from himself. "As common as the corpses around you and those of my now kindred who command the war to purge humanity once more." The corpse revealed probable most of him was now just bone with a scent of a dominating reiatsu over his own but to strip the soul and implant into the lifeless was a power not to be taken lightly.
The sounds of agony would follow as the creatures no doubt found their prey the man who attempted to assassinated the dead man before Adicto as he was ripped apart by the creatures in the distance. "Ah what a wondrous sound don't you agree beast? Now if there's no other query you have left with me I must return to my slaughter much knife work there is to do and the warriors of my master always hunger for new victims." He stated as the machinery beasts gathered about him but he waited for Adicto's response as if he had some obligation to listen to him as if it was commanded of him to do so.

It took all of his self-control to not take the skull for examination. Later he told himself I will take one with me later. Then he noticed the oppressive reiatsu that seemed to radiate from the man like thing, it had changed it felt more dangerous, tainted almost but it was hers. I was right he thought to himself, the power she has is only limited to what she thinks she can do with it.
"I sense the girls power on you, you reek of her power though it seems tainted and darkened since last i have seen her. You will take me to her, NOW!"
Addict Stared at the man unsure if the soul was still attached to the body or was it just a reanimated pile of bones, either way it didn't matter to him.

"Ah what a bold claim you have to know my master? Then your way is mine just follow we shall meet her soon enough." He stated putting on his gas mask once again and walking among the mechanical monster's as they followed suite spread out and with ever terror faced hung with the black ichor. Long they walked and the closer they got the more corpses started to appear fresher and the sounds of battle grew closer or rather the sounds of agony the humans were losing that much was evident. It became more clearer when the duo and his host reached the battlefield soldiers seeing their modern weapons were rather ineffective against the monsters resorted to close range combat with about equal much success and guanteeing them a far more gruesome death. One man madden with rage and armed with a combat knife charged at Adicto and his guide one of the beasts broke off and with his scythe-like arm cleanly cut the man in half from his torso blood gushed everywhere upon the man and Adicto if he didn't move to avoid it. Still barely alive the beast leapt upon the man feasting upon the skin on his face his screams seemed almost inhuman the way he wailed in agony until eventually he could move no more...
"It certainly would've been more quicker if he slit his own throat don't you think?" The guide stated to Adicto with a chuckle not bothering to clean off the blood on his clothes as he proceeded to walk across the battlefield. After a few moments they finally came to a place that had amany of bon fire littered around and smelled so foul it would choke any human who came near it. There stood an army of the mechanical monster tall and small each tending to their assigned overlord which bore a striking resemblance to Adicto's current guide.
"Now we are here she is just beyond here on the mound that circling the camp there my master planes. Meet her at your own peril beast, now I must tend to my host least their blood lust turns upon I." He stated turning away from Adicto and heading back to the host of monsters. To the north was a large mound almost seemed erected by some foul magic as the dirt was weak with no metal or rock underneath that could support it's creation. It was either man-made or self made by the power of the unknown there in the distance with no guard or care stood a slim lone figure robbed in black sitting upon the pole of a rather horrid scythe crested with skulls along it's top portion and dark red pole as it's base that seemed to be pulsing as he would get nearer. The person payed no heed to him as he drew close seeming starring into the chaos of the sky as it sung in horror of the land below writhed in agony.

Addict walked behind his guide calmly trying to figure out a way to take his guides skull back to where ever he was going to go after this, but not know what had happened, or even if it was real he had several ideas but the only one that seemed the most likely to work would be grab the skull and leave for where he had come from. He had barely even noticed that the man had started to attack him until the little monstrosity went after him. As the man was cut in half Addict more out of instinct and reflex lifted his hand creating a firm gust that caused the blood to leave him clean. With a quick sneer he looked at his guide as he tried to make a joke.
As he walked into the camp he watched as the creatures and there controllers moved and here and there but his eyes focused on covered figure. He slowly walked toward it. "Little girl, is it truly you? What have you done to your power. You had such promise, so much to gain..... You have changed since last met, and not for the better"

Long had she stared along at the sunset wondering. 'Damn it how the hell did I end up here in this messed up body with these crazy end of the world fanatics!'[/i] Her thoughts were rather upsetting despite the calm composure she had while sitting on the pole of the embedded scythe.
Then a voice beckoned to her rear a rather familiar one at that. 'No way it couldn't be him could it? How the hell did he even get in my head!? Okay Oun you can do this just take it slow...'[/color] The head of the robed figure would start to turn slowly to meet his gaze until *plop* The robed figure head literally came off and crashed on the ground then rolled just a few feet away from her still sitting body. "Ah! Owowwowo ugh umph ughyaaa!" Oun would cry aloud while she felled and rolled abound until she managed to stop and sit upright with her head. "God damn it this is getting beyond frustrating stupid body is always coming apart every time I move!" She shouted enraged by the fact her body though in appearance was still the same but internally had changed so much that being unaware of it as she was resulted her current predicament.
She twisted to meet Addicto with a rather frustrated expression upon her face. "Why the heck would I be responsible for this!? There's sure aint much profit in bringing Armageddon not to mention being unable to control my own freaking body!" She barked aloud as her head gave a rather nasty glare at Addicto seeming to declare herself innocent despite the creatures and dead men around worshiping as if she was a deity.

Addict just stood there staring at what was left of the girl that he had but a little while ago recognized.
"Um, I think you dropped something there" His voice was filled with concern but more to the fact that she wasn't dead after such an event "You know if your body is in such a bad condition you could just Dr. Doom it you know" making a reference to one of his favorite comic book villains
He had made it a point to ignore all the other creatures in his vicinity, but if any would walk to close to him he would use a blast of wind to throw it out of his way as he walked toward her.
"You really did change didn't you?"
