Truce Zone? (Private, please pm me first)

With a dark chuckle, Albatross stayed standing, its arms folded, and eyes glaring at the man, named Leo, though Albatross did not now his name yet. Though, deep inside Albatross liked the prospect of having someone in its debt. Mauling around the idea in its mind for a few seconds, the hollow turned its attention to the new arrivals, just as Leo finished talking. To the hollow's amusement it had found some one its own height.

Twisting its head unnaturally towards the man who offered Albatross something in return for helping him, Albatross' eyes changed to a black abyss, before swirling into a white mixture again, "Your offer is interesting, I will be sure to send you my wishlist when all is said and done..." Albatross laughed grimly, as its voice changed to that of a young boy. Taking a slow step towards a nearby table, the vasto lorde took a post-it note and pen, writing down a phone number, Albatross handed the information to Leo, before pivoting in a circle, facing the two others, the man in his fancy diving suit, or so it looked, and the younger girl.

"Oh... yes..." Albatross spoke to the human man with its back turned still, "There is one small thing you could do for me... your name... Ke-He-He!" Pausing for the man's response, Albatross walked closer towards the new couple. The one ton hollow smiling beneath its cloak of contrasting mist.

Standing before the girl, the short hollow leaned closely, with no sense of personal space. "You there..." It spoke in an old woman's voice, "How... fun." Albatross spoke before it leaned back slowly, and walked away, exiting the lobby and the hotel. Whether or nor the girl replied, Albatross would have left the hotel in search for a place to do something fun.

Though merely taking two steps out of the hotel, Albatross used sonido in a spurt of speed, as it disappeared into the night, traveling across numerous buildings. As its mind cluttered with thoughts soon changed to that of dreams, as the hollow decided to sleep on one of the many rooftops for the night. Perhaps only a few miles away from the boat hotel, the hollow closed its eyes for a few moments, and drifted into a slumber, still making sure it would not be caught off guard in its sleep.

Dawn soon broke the horizon line, as the sun pierced the morning clouds of white, the sky covered in brilliant hues of fiery brilliance and envy. Looking out to the sea, Albatross stretched for a few moments before taking its leave of the roof top. And as the hollow walked on the streets, after a quick drop from the building, it traveled around for a few hours, until about 9:00 AM.

Though, as Albatross exited a small shop, which had opened in the early day, the hollow stood on the corner of a street, with carrying an ice cream cone, which it devoured in one go. Which was when Albatross was besieged by a group of men. Led by a younger man, with a shaven beard, and low set jaw, looking more like an insect than a human. The man motioned for Albatross to follow him and his entourage. As he spoke about how the hollow was cordially invited to attend a dinner with the director of the truce zone, personally.

Not one to be rude, at the moment, Albatross followed with a hidden smile, not speaking a word, as the humans towered over the short hollow. As they led it to a building deeper into the island. Where the vasto lorde took a seat in a small lounge to await for someone to meet it and bring it to meet the director, or someone of importance. It was a long time until dinner, but the people seemed to want to have everything go as planned.

Helena stayed indoors until the day of the dinner, and didn't do much besides wait in her room. She was feigning weak because of the blow she'd taken to the back of the head when she was pushed out of the way buy that masked person, and she'd barely been distured since then. Now however, there was a knock at the door and her gaurd announced that it was almost time for her dinner, the hollow had accepted.

Helena got dressed and glammed herself up, despite her hatred for fancy clothes and make up. She headed out and to the dinning hall, where there was a table layed out for her and the hollow to eat. The door opened and the hollow was escorted in by a waiter. Helena greeted him with a smile. "Its so nice to meet you, albatross. I am Marian keegan, the director of the truce zone project. Please sit, the waiters will bring anything you'd like." Helena offered him a hand to shake before sitting herself down across from him.

The waiters took their orders, and left to retreive the food. There would be no privacy until they'd come back with it, then she could reveal her identity and see if she could convince him to help her. Until them, she would make with small talk. "So, albatross, how are you enjoying the island?"

Parius sighed. "I found two dead bodies on the beach. They weren't killed by a blade, or guns." He looked out the window. "I'm not sure what did it, but, if it wasn't any of us....Something is here, and killing innocent people." Parius shook his head. "We need to stop it." He then looked back at the two. "Time to rest, I think." He opened the window, before waving. "I am not staying here." He said, if anyone asked him where he was going. He pushed off, the Shunpo'ed away, thoughts organizing themselves into his head. He sighed again, before landing on a building. Parius knew he wasn't sleeping that night.

The Little Sister saw the little boy ninja (Albatross... Yes, Little Sister vision turns Albatross into a black little ninja boy) stop in front of her and said a few words. In response, LS just giggled and said, "Yep, fun..." Then he left the building.

Then she sees a man approach her, asking if she needed anything. LS sighed a little, trying to think of what she wanted... Then, she got an idea and asked the man, "Do you have any ADAM mister?"

After asking the man this, she grabbed a bottle of ADAM out of the Big Daddy's storage tanks and then shoved the thing into the man's face and says, "It looks like this... People that don't live in my old undersea utopia don't know what ADAM is... I hope you have seen some ADAM..."

Then, as the man was making his response, she started drinking some of the ADAM out of the bottle... Delicious...

As she was drinking the ADAM, Leo would've heard a faint screaming coming from the bottle... LS never noticed this, but sometimes the souls that she drained were able to stay alive for a couple hours after being gathered... But, it's just ADAM...

Victory looked at Jun confusedly as he said that it used a lot of energy, he did sense the reitsu he emitted and it was surprisingly higher than he had expected; it made him slightly curious seeing as though he had never seen him in his final form. Letting that slip he made a small smile when he said that he would have to feed him since he couldn’t really move. The fun he could have in teasing the blonde all the meanwhile as feeding him at the same time. However before he could tease him, Parry had something important to say.

The vizard explained how he found two dead bodies on the beach causing the red head to frown looking very displeased since this was a truce zone. “I see… *looks at Jun* looks like we’ve got some investigating to do.” He said before Parry decided that it was a good time to take a break. Looking back at Parry curiously, the vizard opened the window. “Where are you going?” he asked curiously seeing as though there weren’t too many places to go to, but the vizard disappeared off into the night without so much of a word of where he was off to.

Sighing to himself he wondered where he was going, but didn’t chase after him seeing as though he probably wanted to be alone and as well as because Jun could barely move. “I guess that just leaves the two of us.” He said looking back at the blonde. “How long are you going to stay like that?” he then asked him as he sat back on the bed and bent over Jun getting a good look at his paralyzed body, in the red heads opinion he didn’t look to comfortable and so he sat him up in a more comfortable position.

“Well then, I guess that means that we do have to wait before investigating. Seeing as though your reitsu is very low and I don’t think that you’ll be able to use your final form for a while… what do you prefer, pizza or Chinese takeout cause I really don’t mind at all feeding you at all.”

__________________________________________________________________________

A young twelve year old boy sat on the roof of the boat like hotel; he looked and smelled like a normal human kid. He had white spikey hair and blue green eyes. He seemed very bored as he fiddled with a cellphone that he had found not too long ago. “Truce zone, what a ridiculous meaningless island.” Thought the young boy as he sat there.

There was no violence and all races were allowed, Ryuu Sonsaku secretly known as Hiei the second espada decided that he would personally check this event out to see if it was true and that this wasn’t some soul reaper scam to draw out other races and capture them. Hiei’s human form disguised everything about him including suppressing his reitsu down towards a seated officers rank (2-5), not that he was afraid of course; using this form he wanted to get out more information out of the security guards without letting anyone know that he was an arrancar.

Dangling his legs, he suddenly paused as he noticed something jump out from the window below. Watching the figure disappear a small smile formed on his face, he had this sudden feeling like something interesting was about to happen…

(Writers block... so sorry)

Leo was glad the hollow accepted. He gave his name as Leo Tomoshibi, and then turned to the little girl. Though the little girl was really creeping him out. And the other's in his team. But when he heard the souls crying, he snapped. "Leave this boat. There is no "Adam" here. And be thankful that this is a Truce Zone." Hopefully she complied. He then ordered everyone to rest up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Jun wasn't too surprised. "That's why my uncle and I were sent here in the first place. To make sure it was stable and that really is a Truce Zone. Obviously not. Be careful, and update us if you find anything else." The blond managed to say before Parius decided to take his leave. Then came Victor's question. "At least the rest of the night and probably most of tomorrow...a good night's rest is all I need. I do become as strong as a captain when I use it...but the strain it puts on me limits its use..."

The blond was slightly worried when Victor was standing over him. But that proved to be stupid as the elf only readjusted his position to an upright one. Though at the mention of food, Jun sweatdropped. "Chinese takeout of the Xiao-Mei Wok is very good...I had that for my dinner...so I'm not hungry. But the gesture is appreciated."

Then Jun thought some more. "Kerensky-sensei will be smuggling in some equipment, some of which are experimental. You need to be on the other side of the island by noon tomorrow, you'll see him there." At this point, he was struggling to stay awake. Then it hit him. Victor didn't have a reservation...no place to sleep. "If you have no place to stay, you can stay here..." That was when he trailed off into dreamland, with no hope of waking him up.

Having been escorted inside a well polished room, a barrage of flashes seemed to explode from the doorway, as photographers took snap shots of the Hollow, as it came inside. Without blinking, Albatross ignored the annoyance as it moved closer to the table, to witness the person it was to dine with for the evening. As its steps seemed to shake the floor, and leave imprints, Albatross chuckled inside its mind, as it shook hands with the one named Marian Keegan. All the while the hollow laughed slightly in its ever changing voice of souls.

The hollow waving the waiter away, after ordering a simple feast, consisting of a baked potato, buttered toast, a side of plain lettuce, and water. The hollow uninterested in human food for the moment, but it would appease the media attention which it was receiving. It didn't mind being famous, but Albatross could care less in a whole. The hollow taking a seat, upon an elegantly carved wooden chair, embroidered with gold leaf, and velvet lining. The one ton hollow sitting down with a creak, as the chair barely held. The being of deceased souls barely looking over the table, because of its small size.

With another wave a waiter came to the hollow's side, as they switched out the chair for something sturdier and higher. With a laugh, Albatross' white eyes glared at Marian's face, as the hollow memorized the woman's face, posture, and so on. As she began speaking, Albatross looked at the chandelier above the dining table, as its crystals hung elegantly in the air high up.

"This island is what I expected, so far." The hollow answered Marian with its changing voice, the being's eyes changing with a swirl into a dark black. A photo being taken again. "It would seem you have your network quite well made, for them to find me so easily. Then again I do stick out, Ke-He-He! Now then, Miss? Mrs? Keegan, your island seems well designed, but I'm afraid you have done little with controlling the visitors who come here. Why just the other day I had to deal with a delinquent boy." Albatross continued with the conversation, as it took in its surroundings again.

"Tell me, why would you like to create an island such as this? Idealism for a better world? If I offend please let me know, as I do not really do small talk. However I do not see what you can accomplish with having this publicity of a hollow shaking hands with yours." Albatross commented, as it sipped a glass of water. As its white and black mist seemed to curl around its body and drop to the floor of the room softly.

Albatross was giddy with excitement, wondering what it should do, play the good guy, or the betrayer. Either way, the hollow would not leave empty handed, it was certain of that. Wondering what both sides were planning in the end. The hollow sat and waited for its food to arrive.

"And what did you expect, might I ask?" She said. She listened intently to what he had to say about the security, and how he was attacked. "Its important we keep an eye on who comes and goes, my men would have found you by your reiatsu if possible, or the security cameras would have pointed them in your direction. Oh and its Ms, I'm recently divorced." She said then let out a gasp of shock. "Oh my, a delinquent?! When did he attack you. If you want to make an official complaint I'm sure we can bring him in for questioning and send him off the Island. People who cause trouble have no place her."

Helena smiled, a glint of something evil in the strange expression that vanished in a second as it became brighter. "Correct, Sir. A long time ago, I was attacked by a hollow. But it was not a shinigami who saved me, but rather another hollow. The event left my mind spinning, I've heard my fair share of tales about hollow and shinigami and all the other races. But if something everyone considered evil took the time to save my life, why, I wanted a chance to repay him. The only way I could think to do so, was to create a place where everyone could come, and learn to get along. The world has enough violence, it needs a place that can give people a break from all that."

The story wasn't complete bullshit. The only difference was she had been an arrancar, and it was her mother who saved her. Still it made the press more excited and the ones who stared warily at Albatross stopped and became more relaxed. "Do you understand now, why this moment is a monumental achievment for this resort?" She asked.
