“No,” Starrk drawled, not looking up. “They’re all regular humans, just like Orihime. And they don’t like us very much. Orihime doesn’t mind us; in fact, she rather likes us. But the others don’t. So I wouldn’t mention us unless you manage to get Orihime alone to talk to her.” It was true; Nanao, Isane and Momo might be regular humans, but they all had distinct powers of their own, and Nanao was the worst of the bunch. Where the other two women were shy and reserved, she wasn’t afraid to beat the living snot out of anyone who threatened her bakery or her friends. Nel, on the other hand, looked as though she were ready to swoon. “Oh, how beautiful,” she sighed dramatically, clasping her hands together.
Yes, obviously the concept of love was different for all Arrancar; Nel, it seemed, could at least feel it, and all the romantic feelings that came along with it. “To defy death for the one you love. It’s practically a fairy tale!” She was cut off from going on any more by Bentner’s interest in the sword. She turned to him with bright eyes. “Well, then I’d be happy to explain. You see-” She reached to the side and unclasped her sword, laying it across her lap. “These swords are all special. They all have a first release form, with increases their power and allows us to generally use an increased amount of power. The first form is called ‘Shikai.’ The second release, has it’s own name. Generally, when we use it, our forms change into something different. For example, Nnoitora-kun grows extra arms and is much stronger. We all have affinities with different types of animals; his is the mantis. Halibel-sama is the shark, Starrk-kun is the wolf, and I am the ram. Yoshi-chan is a dragon, of course. Twee and La are an owl and a sparrow, respectively. And there are lots of others, Like Mila Rose, Apacci, Sung-sun....The second release allows us more power, and generally greater attacks. It also usually changes the shape and form of our swords into something else. Mine is a lance.”
Yoshi, on the other hand, was uninterested in Bentner and Nel’s conversation, and instead, was scowling down at her book. “I don’t understand. It’s the simplest way to gain more power, you know. I bet if you tried it, you’d get much, much stronger. I can help you! I can destroy them for you first, and then you can eat their spirit particles!” She beamed up at the woman, clearly enamored with her own bright idea.
I love adventurous tales like that. That uplifting feeling that comes from seeing unknown lands and the knowledge that you came across—nothing can replace it! It opens a path from which self-confidence, experience, and important friendships—from the sharing of life or death situations—are born! But hearing it just isn’t the same. I want to create my own magnificent story!
A great adventure! +Imp. Documents+ +Menagerie+ +Wishlist+ +Journal+
