With the Captains suffering casualties and heavy injuries on their side, all hope seemed to be lost... until Shinji Hirako appeared, along with the rest of the former Shinigami. Though the aid of the Vizards certainly helped to draw the battle in their favor, it seemed Aizen's power alone proved too much for them.
Class...the time ticks away slower with every word the professor spews. Sitting three rows from the door and two rows back, smack dab in the middle of the bustle of kids, sit Tentura Okia. Head resting on the palm of his hand, drifting his thoughts into space, totally oblivious to the world around him.
Why..why did they leave..why can I see what others cant... Tentura thought to himself. Not the first time he thought these thoughts, often he questioned himself, his abilities, and his growing up.
-RING- A bell, sounded from down the hall, snapping him out of his dream realm. "Oh!" The bell caused him to jump from his seat slightly. He then turned his head and watched as his classmates began to bustle out the door before turning his head to the wall clock which read 12:00. It was Lunch.
Lunch already....what did I miss.. quickly he gathered his things and ran out behind his classmates into the hall, and rushed off to lunch.

Daigoro Ito grinned as he leaned against a wall and watched the teenager walk down the hall. So this is the Reiatsu that I've been sensing lately... Nice. Daigoro thought to himself as he studied the kid's reiatsu. Seems to be in stage 1 at the moment... Ha, Maybe I should train him - not yet, not until I see the extent of his powers. A lot of humans these days are getting more and more powerful.
Daigoro continued to walk down the hall, simply following his senses until he reached the lunch area. Out of his bag, he pulled a box of steaming hot ramen and sat next to the teenager. Daigoro grinned again as he introduced himself as "Daigoro Ito, transfer student, just got here yesterday. You are?" Not waiting for a reply, he whispered to the kid, "You can see them, can't you? They're here, all around us... I can help you..." That was when Daigoro stood up and left. He'll follow...
He reached into his pocket and pulled out a tube, marked SOUL CANDY. Pressing down on the duck's head *sic*, Daigoro popped the pill that came out into his mouth. As his soul was ripped from his body, he instructed the artificial soul to wait there... and to lead Tentura to see him on the roof...
Slightly nervous at the sign of the new boy sitting next to him, he seemed to squirm a little, wanting nothing more but for him to leave so he continued to stare down at the lunch in front of him. That was until he muttered the words help.... That one word caught his attention...
Was that a spirit....what the hell is going on here...be calm Tentura be calm... his emotions began to rise, hands clenching, teeth gritting, without a second impulse.."HEY WAIT!" was let out as he jumped up from his seat and darted out into the hall. Heads turned at this outburst but at this moment, he did not care.
A chance that someone knew what he was going through, what was going on in his head. What just talked to him. He didn't know and he frankly didn't care. He just had a sense that this person could help him more than anyone else currently could. "Hey Wait up! Where are you!?" screamed Tentura as he exited the lunch room. "Hey!!!...oh..." He stopped himself from screaming any further as the boy named Daigoro was only inches from him... once again without thinking he got even closer to the boys face and whispered in a harsh tone "Tell...me...what you know"
(OOC - Daigoro's body has an artificial soul in it ('Daigoro'), and won't talk until you reach the roof and meet Daigoro's actual form...)
'Daigoro' grinned and began to walk off, beckoning Tentura to follow him. He started off at a slow pace, until he reached the roof of the school building. He walked until he reached a fence, turned around and grinned at the boy following him. It was then that Daigoro, the Shinigami landed behind Tentura, softly as he could and simply said "Yo..."
Daigoro grinned again when the human turned around in shock. "You can see me, can't you? Well I'll tell you what," Daigoro said, his hair billowing behind him, "the only one that the people around here can see is that guy behind you, in my gigai, which I use when not in this form. Get it? I am a Shinigami, and you have spirit powers, very low level at the moment, but I believe that we can develop them. There may be a war coming, and we need all the help that we can get. Are you in?" Daigoro extended his hand.
Whats going on....this is a spirit...a spirit killed my parents...Don't trust him...but I feel I can... Looking around now, Tentura felt elated. A moment that he will remember forever. It has been so many years since Tentura has spoken with a spirit...this spirit however seemed different than others. A since of endearment was being felt by Tentura as the spirit held out his hand.
"I dont understand...I really don't..but without your help...I don't think I ever will." Against what his conscious was telling him not to do, he stuck his hand out and griped the Shinigami's hand, eyes tightened and shaking. With the touch of his hands he felt lifted, as if something inside he woke up and caused him to see the world clearer than it already was.
Finally he opened up his eyes and was able to gain enough courage to look at the Shinigami. "Tell me what I need to do and I will do it."
He meant it. Tired of always questioning what was going on. Always being scared of spirits invading his life. He knew this was the only way to continue his life.
"Good. Meet me in the forests, after school today... I will be waiting for you..." Daigoro grabbed his gigai and jumped off of the roof, landed on the ground, got back into the gigai and walked away, towards the outskirts of the town...
