The Edge of Dawn [Solo Training]

[Camila Adaronde]

Taking a deep breath as she appeared back in New York, Camila couldn't help but smile. It hadn't been too long since she'd last been here; her fight with Kimiko had been less than a week ago, all things considered. To think that times had changed so much over the last week... The thought bewildered her.

Regardless of that fact however, she was on her own. Albin had been gone for the time, and not a trace of him was found in her Inner World. But, the fact that she still her her abilities seemed to speak volumes. He was there somewhere, but it was going to take a bit of time for her to find him. That wasn't a worry for the moment, however; instead, she'd focus on what she was here for.

She'd heard rumors that there was something rather... interesting that she could tap into. If all went well, she'd be able to take advantage of the latent abilities she'd just tapped into; something that made her more like that of the Hollows she'd associated with than those Shinigami over in Soul Society. A weapon of destruction she was fully prepared to set across the city.

Taking a deep breath, Camila held her hand in front of her face. Focusing reishi across her fingertips, and eventually bleeding down toward her palm, a deep black splattering of spirit particles quickly took hold across her face. With a flick of her wrist, as her hand went upward over her face and toward the sky, that reishi quickly took on a physical form.

Across her face had been a rather simple mask; one that had shown the entire culmination of her journey thus far. She'd become a Vizard. Lowering her arm slowly as she felt her own capabilities quickly booming, she couldn't help but smile. It was an almost intoxicating feeling; a power high of the highest degree, for lack of a better comparison. And it was all hers.

Bouncing around on her feet in order to lighten up a bit, Camila drew one of her Zanpakutō and swung it around with noteworthy force. From her swing, and from the tip of her blade, a massive blast of air flew from her weapon. That shockwave continued to ripple forward through the air, eventually slamming into and tearing apart the wall of a nearby building. As the screams of New Yorkers echoed out, Camila couldn't help but chuckle. This power felt good.

Though, that wasn't entirely what she was here for. She had a mission of her own to deal with for the time being. Holding her free hand out, fingers curled into a sort of claw, the girl channeled her reiatsu into her hand once more. An iconic and terrible roaring echoed through the air as she did, before eventually releasing outward into the air in front of her.

"Cero."

An absurd booming of reiatsu unleashed itself from the girl's fingertips, shredding and tearing through civilian and building alike. Within a few short moments later, she let out a soft breath; one that she'd been holding since she'd spoken those words. Even just one of those had taken quite a bit out of her; she'd need to fix that as best she could, else this was going to prove problematic.

Lowering her arm after such a display, Camila slowly began to walk forward through the destruction she'd caused. A number of various fires had remained, lives had been claimed... The city had looked much like it did back during the girl's fight with Kimiko. To say it was a mess would've been an understatement.

Taking looks around the place, she found herself rather overjoyed, all things considered. To be glad to have left such a mark- no, a scar on the world around her. Whether the inhabitants of the Three Worlds liked it or not, she was going to leave her mark across the worlds. She wasn't going to just up and vanish from the world again without doing so.

She couldn't let something like that happen.

Taking a deep breath, Camila let out a deafening roar. As her voice carried through the city, shattering glass panes and shaking the general population, she took to the air with a rather powerful jump. As the residual shockwave echoed around her, cracking the pavement beneath her feet in the process, she took another glance down toward the city. A glance that very clearly signified what was going to happen next.

Quickly charging up another orb of hollow energy, Camila let out another roar. Releasing another explosion of hollow reiatsu through the use of Cero, Camila smiled wickedly as the blast decimated through civilian life once more. She reveled in the adrenaline; the feeling that came from the excess annihilation did nothing more than continue to put that woman on that same high.

She fucking loved it!

With another wicked laughter as she plummeted toward the ground with abandon, she eventually crashed into the pavement like a meteorite. The ground beneath her feet rippled outward, leaving a noteworthy indent in the middle of the street in the process. She'd been nothing if not proud of the excess damage that she'd caused thus far, that was for sure.

Though, there was still more to come. At least, that was the initial plan, if it wasn't for a rather interesting sight that made itself apparent. Walking up slowly to a woman on the ground, half-buried underneath a building, this poor individual stood up at the masked woman. Fear circulated through her eyes. "P-please help me!" she practically screamed, "I... I can't move! Please, get help!" Tears streamed down her eyes. Tears that brought about an almost "pained" smile from Camila.

"Oh, you poor thing," she spoke, "I haven't meant to do this to you... you must be in so much pain right now." As she finished speaking, the woman's eyes widened. "You did this..? What kind of a monster are you!?" These words provoked a chuckle from the girl. "You wound me with your words. I am no monster. You're gazing toward a goddess."

Slowly pointing her hand toward the woman, Camila once again began to charge another hollow flash. With the same explosive roar, deep red and black light originating from her hand, and another wicked smirk across the girl's face, Camila prepared to release this laser point-blank, but first had a few words to share with the woman.

"See this as an act of mercy."

And just like that, the sidewalk was vaporized. Along with the woman, nearby buildings, and those that saw the damned event happen. It was quite a spectacle, to say the least; and a rather noteworthy display, all things considered. The poor woman had absolutely no chance of getting away, given the fact that she'd been crushed under a building.

If nothing else, she thought, at least she isn't being crushed anymore. Such provoked a chuckle from the girl. Regarding that whole situation, Camila immediately went on with her afternoon. As one could've otherwise expected, she continued to tear the place apart with relative ease.

As lasers continued to fly, and buildings and bodies continued to drop, Camila couldn't help but spend the afternoon doing what she desired to the poor cityscape. At this point, the afternoon had effectively become her playground, and she was enjoying every last moment of it while on this power high. It was almost as though she was never going to be able to be stopped!

Until, inevitably, she was stopped.

As the mask that permeated across her face began to crack and crumble, Camila immediately found herself crashing toward the ground with a noticeable plummeting. She'd lost her abilities almost as quickly as she'd gained them, and then some. As her momentum quickly took her slamming into a building, the Vizard huffed for a moment as she tried to stand up.

It seemed as though the time on her abilities was up. As the mask on her face was almost fully removed shortly thereafter, she began to come down from the feelings of being unstoppable. Unfortunate, but what was she to do? After all, she'd only just begun to tap into her abilities. There was no doubt in her mind that she was going to need to train them over time if she wanted to actually get anything out of them.

Standing up and looking around, a smile spread across her face as she quickly realized that a number of Hollows had made themselves present within the area. Those that she'd killed and reappeared as plus were beginning to draw in the masked monsters with relative ease, and this did nothing more than bring a smile across the girl's face. It was like she was walking Hollow bait!

Walking up to one, and slamming her fist into the beast's sternum, she forced the monster to recoil almost immediately. "You there," she spoke, "show me how you've been doing that trick." Of course, she meant Kumon. If nothing else, she wasn't going to go home without something like that; such a technique meant she was going to be able to leave on her own, and without the aid of hollows.

Hacking up their lungs and taking the opportunity to cough after having been struck so hard, the Hollow eventually spoke. "G-gods," they said, "fine, fine." As the girl nodded her head and crossed her arms, she watched the Hollow do what was instructed of them. "Simply press your hands - or, in this case, your weapon - out in front of you, and pierce through the fabric of this world."

Following through with their words, the Hollow once again opened up Kumon to show the girl what could've been done. It wasn't a difficult technique, all things considered, but it was certainly going to be enough for her to find her way around with. Nodding her head in suit, Camila simply left the hollow to live, prompting a sigh of relief from the monster.

Doing what was instructed of her, and slashing her sword out in front of her, Camila ripped a hole in the fabric of reality in order to enter the Garganta. It was truthfully quite a surprising fact that she hadn't done so earlier. Though, an opportunity hadn't presented itself so readily. Naturally, she was going to capitalize on such a fact where she could.

Walking through the inky blackness that presented itself before her, she did what she could to take in her surroundings. Everything seemed... certainly a bit odd, all things considered. She'd traversed trough the Garganta on a number of different situations before in the past, but never alone. It was almost a humbling experience, all things considered.

Eventually, however, she'd find herself well within the borders of Las Noches. Cracking her neck, she knew what her next goal was going to be. Preparing herself mentally, and taking the long way there in order to recuperate a bit from her little extravagant journey within the Human World, Camila prepared to climb the floors of Las Noches in order to challenge he who held her rank; Rizer J. Tile.
