It was a sunny day in Karakura Town. Rather peaceful to say! The birds were chirping, the people would chit chat and have a casual time. It was the park after all. Everything seemed rather fine until something interesting would occur. Like a crack in the sky, a visually disturbing image would happen in the sky. While the humans weren't all aware, something horrible was about to happen to ruin their day... It would be when suddenly, the crack would rip open and show what appeared to be some dark void! At first, it seemed passive but that would soon change when suddenly a large hollow would poke its head through the garganta and into the world of the living. Its curiosity seemed rewarding as it saw what appeared to be several people all relaxing and minding their own business. With a large foot extending out, it entered the world so calmly as it peered around for its first meal! However, this would be quickly interrupted...
"MEAT!!!!! MEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" A winged hollow appearing a dragon would suddenly fly out of the garganta and directly into the gillian! It would look like such a clusterfuck as the gillian tried to swat the damn tiny in comparison away! "MEAT! FEED ME! FEEEEED MEEEE!!!!" and with that Hela would bite down with immense force into the gillian's mask, causing the creature to roar out in pain! As her bite gripped tighter, its mask began to crack and shatter... The smaller hollow seemed to have done some sort of damage to it. That's when a revelation would quickly transpire. Right as the mask of the gillian appeared to suddenly shatter, the wyvern's body glowed so brightly in the sun! Like a giant lantern, her body slowly began to merge into the gillian's mask and completely absorb into the gillian's face. As this happens, the mask of the gillian began to change very dramatically. What was once a typical gillian mask now changed into something fascinating. The mask was now slowly becoming drake-like in nature. The white and beautiful design slowly coming into play as it finally finished its shape. What was the previous gillian was now something or someone else.
As the gillian stood there for a moment, Hela would immediately become the true possessor of this body. She slowly looked at her own giant hands and realized she had become one with this creature. However, she's the one directly in control of it. 'This.. This is my newest form? I thought eating this would make me feel less hungry... I still starve... Starve.. I still.... STARVE!!!' A sudden loud roar came from her mask as she yelled on the top of her lungs. The garganta behind her unleashed several smaller hollows that began their carnage across the part! The poor humans around her seemed so confused as to what was transpiring! It looked like people were just being butchered for no reason!
Hela knew what she had to do. She had to EAT in order to quell this hunger! Oh by god she will do it! Stepping over several people, she had to find the most delicious tasting humans to eat! It was only nature for the hollow to select the finest humans to grab! Hela would slowly walk her way over to a pavilion and completely smash it into tiny pieces! The humans, they're scattering everywhere! It was her time to catch these little ones before they got away! As soon as she reached over, she saw several hollows pounce on her prey. Absolutely not!! If you want to take her prey, YOU WILL BECOME PREY!
The drake-like gillian scooped a human and hollow together in her palm and quickly shoved them into her mouth.. That serves the bastard right for taking her food! HER FOOD!!! Now they will become one with Hela. Hela would advance slowly towards a tree and slowly reach down to pick it up. This thing... This life... SHE HATED IT! It was a disgusting mess to her! She quickly pulled her arm back and chucked it towards a building. The impact of it caused the front to completely shatter and quake as she stormed off into the park. The garganta leaked more hollows around as she desperately tried to find more food to feed her stomach. By god, this was so heavenly! So delightful! This beats Hueco Mundo in terms of food! The gillian would grab yet another poor human that was literally trying to get away from what was invisible to them. "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?! SOMEBODY CALL THE COPS!!!" She would lift them up to the air and drop them into her mouth, swallowing the poor soul whole!
Yessss.... the hunger... It was... STILL FUCKING THERE! Hela wanted more! MORE! Her prey was all escaping or was being devoured by other hollows. It was just so disgraceful that these other pathetic worms were taking her buffet from her! Still, she had plenty more to grab and soon perhaps more delicious food would come to her and her 'allies'. It's unknown what was to come but the gillian was absolutely ready to take on whatever just to keep eating. Hela knew it was time to satisfy her hunger. She needed to stop her hunger. In her own mind, this was the only way to do it. She didn't care about fleeing or running. She just wanted to fucking eat!!! And so she shall FEAST!

Last Edit: Feb 17, 2024 6:41:51 GMT -5 by Hela: I've changed this introduction because I feel like I've devoured too many humans for literally my first post. Made clear edits to just two.
It seemed like the prey was easy to get around here. That was perfectly fine with the new gillian as she would stomp her way over to yet another fleeing human. It seemed like everything was going to go well until she could sense faintly some hollows turning themselves against her. Hela didn't expect the other hollows to suddenly turn on her but it would make some sense as her size and energy created a massive magnet for food for the other hollows. The gillian had to stop her chase on the humans and prepare for what was about to come. As she stood by, she could see what she could describe as a pathetic show quickly approaching the massive beast.
A minor hollow would suddenly fly in from the skies and latch onto her face much like her approach into this! Hela would have her mask bit down as the tiny hollow was literally trying to copy her tactic into evolving. Damn pest! ‘This weakling is trying to copy me?! I’ll show it something!’ As it latched on like a leech, she immediately gripped the little hollow and yanked it off her face. Her mouth would open wide as she threw the wiggling hollow into her mouth and bit down on it, swallowing it whole. Hollows, humans, they’re all snacks to her! It was then yet another hollow would come towards her. This time, a frog-like hollow jumped into the sky and charged directly into her! However, the drake knew there were going to be obstacles here. She snatched the frog hollow mid air and gripped it so tightly. The disgusting hollow choked on her grip as she shoved it into her mouth. Satisfying her hunger once more.
Of course, yet another hollow sprinted towards her. With her being the only gillian around, it became noticeable for the other hollows to try and attack her. This one however was cheetah-like in appearance as it pounced on her foot and bit down with all it had. ‘All these fucking fools! Why won’t they just go the fuck away?!’ She would bend down with her cloak dangling down and snatched the feline hollow up. It clawed and screamed as she shoved this pathetic creature into her mouth. God that one tasted like shit… Still, the hunger persisted.
After displaying herself as the dominant hollow in this area, all the hollows backed off the gillian. They all carried on their feeding frenzies elsewhere as she looked around where next to attack. Next in her rampage was a public bathroom of some sort. She had gained so much frustration from the damned weakling that she pranced herself over and completely kicked the building into oblivion! It was good to cause mayhem as humans ran all around, while being attacked by several hollows. Hela was extremely cautious as of now, expecting something to happen soon. The gillian found a police officer on scene, trying to determine just what the hell was going on. Easy prey.
The monster quickly walks over as the officer had no clue as to why the ground shook, quickly reaching over to grab him; he yelled in pure terror! His partner came out of the car and began panicking as they shot at her with their puny weapon. She would stop in her tracks and quickly snatched the one shooting as well with her free hand and gripped them so tightly. They were speaking about something in sheer fear but those words didn’t mean shit to her. She was out to get her way… As the two screamed, she threw them both in her mouth and devoured them whole as well. A satisfying taste yet again. The situation was beginning to grow more dire as all the prey was beginning to get away. She would need to act fast before ‘they’ show up.
Hela quickly rushed towards yet another poor victim, this time an old frail lady. She was so clueless on what was going on. Despite her confusion, she still was going to be another victim. As soon as she was picked up, she began to yell a blood curdling scream. The hollow would feel nothing for this woman as this was just simply food to her. ‘This one has lived for a long time… Perhaps it’s plenty ripe!’ As she was about to devour this woman, something struck her nerve… The screaming gave her a sudden chill of something. She froze and thought deep in her brain as to why she’s having this deep thought now.
The time frame becomes unclear but it appears to be somewhere in World War 2. It was one of the most miserable mornings on the Eastern front. The poor woman in snow camo laid down in the freezing cold snow with her companion. The bright snow illuminated the ground as they were both prone in the snow. “Hey… Look over there…” Hela’s companion pointed to the village where several Wehrmacht had recently captured it. She aimed down her scope as her companion locked binoculars on the scenery. She aimed her Mosin directly on a group of soldiers who were forcing civilians out of the huts. Hela’s grip became tight as she exhaled heavily.
“Kasyanov, hold yourself. I know the look in your eyes my friend.. You are wanting to take the shot.” Her unknown companion placed a hand on her shoulder as her rifle shook rapidly from the sheer amount of rage being built up. “The dogs… They’re up to no good! I have to do something!” Her companion’s hand gripped her shoulder tightly as she watched the scene, “No… Hold yourself together. If you do something now, we may get ourselves killed.” The whole situation was frustrating and nerve racking. Her stomach growled as she had not eaten in over a day. She had such a hard time with this.
The German soldiers began shoving a man from his home while a woman followed behind them, pleading with them not to do anything to the man. She goes as far as to drop on her knees and beg the Germans not to do anything rash. However, that didn't help this poor man’s case. Hela began shattering her teeth from the sheer anxiety of this whole ordeal as she slowly placed her finger on the trigger. Her comrade seemed concerned for her well being, “Anya… For god’s sake..! I know you want to act but you can’t! It’s going to ruin everything!”
Hela was so focused on the scenery that she didn’t even hear what her comrade had said. As she watched, her eyes would widen in sheer horror. A child from inside the home ran out to try and catch up to her father. As the child ran up, their mother caught them before the child could endanger themselves. As the Germans moved the man forward, they suddenly brought him to an abrupt stop. Kicking the man to his knees, one of the soldiers locked a rifle on him. The man began begging in Ukrainian to spare him as he had his wife and child but that did nothing. Within that second, they fired a shot into him… The woman’s screaming became loud enough to haunt her mind. Her eyes widened in the flashback as reality was now coming back.
With a panicked response from this flashback, she threw the woman far into the sky! Hela grabbed her mask and felt sheer pain from that memory. She couldn’t handle that fucking screaming anymore… It was taking her back to a darker time. Wait, was that… A memory? The gillian stood idle for a moment as she held her mask, seemingly recollecting a dark memory in her mind. This was the first time ever since she became a hollow to recollect a moment in her living life. 'My god... What the fuck is going on...?! I feel like my living self for a moment! God.. The hunger is hurting me again.. I have to keep eating.. I don't have time for memories like that now!' Regardless, she had no time to think back to it. She had to move on and feed before things got worse.
The park laid empty now and it seemed like the other hollows scattered. Perhaps, this would be good for her to go through but why stop now? The fun has only just started! Hela would move quickly onwards into the city, finding that there was so much more to eat out here! She would need to continue her feeding as long as she could. It wouldn’t take long until… A pulse. A single pulse was all it took. She was in the middle of reaching for someone when she felt it. This pulse felt as if it were a garganta only more… pure. It was way out there somewhere but she knew… They were coming. The damned shinigamis… They were COMING! Hela would grip her big palms while arching her back backwards a bit. With an insane sense of rage, she let out an immense roar so loud that whoever was coming would hear her. exact location. She was ready for something more… She was ready to try her first taste of shinigamis!!!
It will probably take some time for the bastards to show themselves but knowing how shinigamis were, they like to ambush hollows while they weren’t suspecting them. As Hela prowled the cities, she just felt so confused as to why she had that memory. It felt so out of nature for her to come across a memory such as that let alone a memory. For many decades the hollow remembered nothing of her past. She was literally just a feral animal surviving the deserts of Hueco Mundo when she traversed through a garganta for the first time several years ago.
Hela would walk by a skyscraper, looking directly at the glass as she saw herself in the reflection. Though this will literally be the first time she actually glared herself in a mirror-like surface. The woman hasn’t seen herself before ever except while living. The dragon’s mask bleach white while her black cloak covered her entire giant body. It was actually a big shock to her because… for the first time ever she lost her appetite in this whole ordeal. Fascinated by her own reflection, she stopped her terror and stared directly into the glass, staring into her reflection. As she stood there, yet another faint memory would come in her mind.
This setting was similar in the timeframe but inside a building of some sort. An office or something. The woman in the red army uniform stood at attention as she saluted the man at the desk. “Comrade Commissar!” To which the man would wave his hand, “At ease. You must know why you are here Kasyanov, yes?” The woman would finish her salute once she was told to go at ease. She stood there and looked at the blurred out face. It was like Hela was reliving a memory again. Though the man’s face was blurry, she somewhat could remember who this was. “You almost fired a shot at the wrong target due to getting into your feelings. That is why you were pulled here today.”
Anya Kasyanov was her name the more she thought about it. She was a part of the Red Army in World War 2 as a sniper on the Eastern Front. It was all becoming clear who she was slowly. Though there were still plenty of blanks, she was able to put those few things together. The woman spoke, “Comrade, the enemies were taking villagers out of their homes and were executing them. I had to sit there and watch just to wait for their lousy officer. I still completed my task, commissar!” She began to sweat as being present in front of a commissar could either be a good thing or a bad thing. The commissar sighed and stood up from his chair, “My dear, comrade.. You have compassion for our people which is something I admire.” He would slowly walk over and pass behind her, grabbing something off the shelf. The woman seemed too afraid to look behind her as he brought over something. A moment like this is nerve racking... The commissar could easily execute her right then and there if she wanted to.
It was a small figure of the Hammer and Sickle being crossed with each other. This was the symbol of the Communist Party. She would glare at it, wondering what the point of this was. “Do you see what this is?” Anya looked at it carefully and spoke, “It is the symbol of our glorious party, commissar.” The man would set it down and approach directly in front of her, “Do you think your thoughts of earlier matter to our glorious party, comrade?” That part right there struck a deep thought in her mind at that moment. One wrong answer could easily end wrong for her. She stood there for a brief moment and spoke once more “Comrade Commissar, I believe it is very understandable why the party would feel the way I felt. However, I understand with all my heart that Comrade Stalin would see our mission as the most important thing right now for the sake of our mighty party.” With a quick response like that, the man would chuckle and go back over to his seat and relax.
“Very good, comrade. You did well today on your mission. I will let your commanding officer know you are fine to resume your duties. You are dismissed.” Anya would quickly snap a salute to him and begin to march herself off. What she was in front of was certain death. The woman knew this was a miniature trial for her as her partner turned her in for almost losing herself to fight. While the mission was successful, it could have been jeopardized according to them. The woman walked through a door that appeared like a white lit up room. As she walked through, reality came back once again to the real world.
As she peered at herself through the glass, she gripped her fist and smashed it with so much built up rage. She could care less about that fucking Communist Party. She remembered how much suffering they caused to her people. For the first time once more, she felt rage based on her past! However, her hunger began to slowly come back now. Her reality was returning to what was going on. She was the monster, and she needed to eat more to quell that hunger! All the hatred and rage was built up once more again she had every desire to fill herself up until that hunger went away for good. It was time to get this going for time was running short!
Right as the gillian looked around for her next prey, it came out of nowhere… Suddenly a slice would go down her arm as she was cut right open! It seemed what she dreaded was here now… The gillian frantically looked around as she felt the presence of something. Quickly standing over the massive building taller then her, stood a black robed figure. He would hold a device in his hand, almost like a flip phone. “I have arrived on the scene with the gillian. It’s causing issues here as well. Squad, handle the park and other areas the hollows ran off to. The gillian will be dealt with in an orderly fashion.” As the shinigami finishes that, he flips the phone down and prepares his blade.
The bleeding stopped in her arm but it still hurt pretty damn bad. She knew now that this was going to be a fight. This shinigami seemed to be on her level in power.. Perhaps this was the strongest shinigami to show up at this scene? Regardless, the gillian prepared herself for a fight. This was going to be one hell of a time. “Die where you stand, monster!” The shinigami would completely pull his sword out and jump off! His aim was to head directly into the gillian. This wasn’t going to be easy but the gillian felt ready for this! What will happen next?!
Hela watched as the shinigami launched himself off the mighty tower above her. While she was a tall gillian, she still had the structures around her that towered over her. While he was technically the strongest, the gillian would sense something off about him. He didn’t feel a level of leadership in him. Maybe higher rank shinigamis weren’t so tough after all? He was only lucky with that slice on her arm because she didn’t expect it at all. This time though… She was well prepared for another strike. Her skin slowly begins to plate itself like armor as if she was taking on her dragon form from long ago. While still overall appearing the same, she had her armor ready to protect herself now from all harm. As the shinigami came swinging their blade down, she would immediately swing her arm like a bat against him and send the man flying!
It felt like playing American Baseball! The man flies directly into a building and goes right through the glass, breaking several areas of glass where he would impact the area. Hela had built up so much strength in the new form of hers. It felt almost how unreal this was to actually still be a gillian. As Hella gripped her fist, she moved directly towards the direction of where that shinigami went. It was pointless to eat these humans now. She had one thing on the menu and it was something new she wanted to try!
As she approached the massive building, she saw the man slowly pull himself out of the crater, cracking his neck as if he twisted it the wrong way. He smirked at the gillian as she approached him, “Damn, I should have known charging a gillian was a stupid idea. For a mindless beast, you sure are a strong piece of work…” Speaking to himself though Hela understood everything he was saying. It was like this man thought she was just some mindless zombie that had no consciousness. Do these shinigamis really think hollows are all mindless and of no feelings? While Hela’s emotions are numbing she still has gained some sense of humanity very recently now. Regardless, Hela couldn’t respond to him, even if she could communicate with him, she wouldn’t give a rat’s ass to begin with.
As the shinigami jumped off, he would charge directly into her! As soon as she went for another swing, he suddenly vanished before her eyes!! What the hell, she could feel he was there but elsewhere! Her swing misses completely as suddenly he appeared on her side and slashed the side of her leg this time! A loud scrap would be heard as if it was nails on a chalkboard! It was her Escala de Correo armor that would protect her from this harm. The shinigami’s face would look shocked as suddenly she would smack her armored leg towards him! That would again send him flying into the building once more! ‘This stupid rat really thinks he can just charge me and expect to hurt me again? I really can’t fathom why he’s being so stupid…’
Hela would slowly approach the shinigami that was yet again inside the crater. The man got himself into a predicament that was surely going to be the end for him. As she stepped forward, she saw the man collapse on the ground. His weak and frail body was exhausted after taking both hits now. She would look down at him with such a hungry expression. ‘Looks like he wasn’t so tough after all… It’s time to quickly end this before-’ and with that thought coming through her mind, a small shinigami woman suddenly appeared in front of him, preparing her blade. “STOP MONSTER! I WON’T LET YOU TAKE HIM!” The woman looked so miserable and weak. It made the gillian look down at her for a moment.. This woman… She’s taking a massive sacrifice for this guy?
Her brain is doing it again… Everything is going white all over again. It was again the same timeframe as before but this time it was more in an urban environment. She remembered what event this was. After the event of the commissar, she was sent back to the frontline. Unfortunately for the Soviets in 1942, the Germans were a fearsome threat that laid waste to what came ahead of them. The location was Stalingrad she could remember. Here was when she saw the most devastating combat in her career.
Several of her comrades were killed gruesomely by the invading dogs during this time. The city was in a ferocious siege as the Germans were so ever close to capturing the city for themselves. Fortunately for the Soviets however they managed to keep fighting despite heavy casualties. Anya at this point sat there, playing dead on the side of the street. The woman managed to use the blood of a dead pig to camouflage herself as a dead soviet soldier lying on the streets. This was a common tactic the soldiers of the Red Army used during World War 2 to win their wars, catching the Germans off guard. Though this was a special assignment she was given.
As of right now, she had the sole mission of tracking down a high ranking officer of the Wehrmacht. This was one of her most crucial missions as the assassination of this officer would become a huge blow to the Germans and possibly break rank for the Germans. As the woman lay there like a statue, a large column of men began to move on the streets at their own pace. A couple of Panzers traveled with the men as they all passively go by her. One German soldier even stops and looks at her and steps over her. This was fairly common for her actually, as stated the Soviets used this tactic frequently. There was only one time things almost became ugly. At one time a young German soldier was going around shooting bodies as she laid on the battlefield in order to set herself up for an assassination. Only three or four corpses away from his last shot, another sniper took him out before he came to her. She was very fortunate that day.
As the formation traveled off into the distance, she laid there perfectly still until she heard nothing. Once the column left for good, she slowly raised her head up and got up from the floor. The woman would crawl through a window she positioned herself near and quickly traversed the stairs. She had something important up there waiting for her so she couldn’t waste time. As she kicked down a door, she stepped in and grabbed a bedframe and completely flipped it over which revealed something wrapped up in a blanket. She began quickly unweaving the blanket to which it revealed a Mosin rifle. The woman pats herself quickly down to find a small bag of rounds. She quickly begins loading her weapon as she sweats intensely from the pressure of being in contested areas of Stalingrad. Pushing the chamber forward, she quickly cocks her head over to hear something rolling on the streets.
As she peeks through the window, she discovers yet another column of soldiers and this time trucks passing through. She kept herself at a low stance as she watched carefully for the one she’s looking for. Anya wasn’t expecting her target to arrive so soon but it’s very possible. With utter silence, she watches the column go with no sign of her target anywhere. It was somewhat a relief because they didn’t bother to search the building for anything really. In the distance, bombs can be heard going off as she checks over her rifle one last time. She gave off a comforting sigh as everything seemed orderly. Anya got up and began walking down the stairs, checking the outside for anything then moving forward.
This place was such a hellish landscape. There were so many craters around the streets, so many bullet holes, and worst of all so many bodies. Some looked fresh while others appeared deformed and unrecognizable. It was such a nasty and horrible war… She wasn’t sure walking through this if she was ever going to be the same. While it was lonely out here, she somewhat preferred that over a partner who would turn her in just for blinking. The woman slowly makes it close to where she heard this dog was at… The center of Stalingrad. This area was the most contested and for good reasons. This was where the government was centered at.
The unknown target had the habit of moving camp to camp in order to avoid snipers like herself and that was an ongoing problem. Lucky for her, she’s heard from several individuals that today would be the day they’d make their trip there. She would begin to cross a street as she cautiously looked around. There was definitely plenty of cleaning up to do when this was over… The Soviet lady makes her way over and jumps inside a building. The place was ransacked before. She would slowly take light steps to the top floor. It was imperative she get a good view of the area so she can locate her target.
It wasn’t difficult at all but she managed to find the perfect window where she needed to go. It was inside a baby’s room of a little home. The child’s room certainly gave her a chilling feel to this area as she quietly looked around it to feel a ‘motherly’ instinct kick in. She wished she had the chance to produce her own child with a husband but the war changed that. Wiping her nose, she quickly placed the barrel of her weapon just a bit out the window to get it prepared for a possible assassination. The stage was set now but she had to see what was going on. Scoping in on the situation with her mosin scope, she would see the scenery now. It was a base camp of some sort in the middle of the town. It kind of looked like a town square with a giant circle and streets going in different directions.
This was the location of where all the columns traveled to. Tanks, trucks, tents, and so many other things were all around this area. The simple sight of this made her sweat but what confused her was why they were all here? The Germans occupied the area for now but it could be overrun by the Red Army anytime if they chose to do so. Every moment mattered in this entire situation as she looked around with alertness. She would happen upon an unhooded car with a tent near it. Adjusting her back a bit, she looked directly in to see who this was.
Fate seemed to have her back that day as she looked closely and found what appeared to be a high ranked individual standing there at a table, she had a gut feeling about this. She looked closely there and saw on the table the entire map with little figures. This was probably the big cheese himself and she had the goal of handling this. As she aimed her scope towards him, she shook lightly by how nerve racking it was. After a few seconds, she released her grip and sighed. It was a lot on her shoulders and it was gonna cost her so much if he gets away. She shook her head and went back on the scope to find the officer now being blocked by another individual. Her grip on the weapon tightened.. She had to do something.. It’s all or nothing. She took a deep breath and corrected her aim. With hope in her brain, she took her shot and that’s when the flashback disappeared.
Now the present was here with this annoying fucking girl defending this idiot who should have known better. Thinking about the outcome of that flashback, her blood boiled to a max as she swung her fist at such an immense speed. “NO! WHY DID YOU COME HER-” SMASH!!! Her fist literally collides against the two, killing them with one fowl blow. A bloody mess was made.. Just like that awful officer in world war 2 and the one that stood in the way. The gillian grabbed their weak and frail bodies and threw them both into her mouth. Claiming her prize in butchering them for herself… The shinigamis tasted something that was unique and delicious to her.. This was the best food she’s had in her life. It was definitely rewarding.
Hela’s hunger quickly felt so much better now. She was glad that the shinigamis filled her gullet up. Though the hunger was going down, the danger was still ever present. As the hollow slowly stood herself back up, she could sense more danger coming… For some reason, she felt like something worse was coming soon to her and she had to be extremely prepared for this. The street she was on was clear… Whatever the people saw that was invisible to them clearly provoked them. The hollow stood there briefly to decide what to do next.
Eating the shinigamis seemed to quell a majority of her hunger. It was actually a nice feeling to feed off them as it gave her a feeling of satisfaction and relief to her well being. The gillian began to think clearly on her thoughts, something she had never done before. The towering hollow, stood straight up and looked up to the sky, admiring it for a moment. It has been such a long time since she's ever had such a clear thought. No stupid broken English, no rapid nonsense. 'I don't know why but... I actually feel like I'm alive again. I'm always used to rambling on and on or just talking out my ass but I actually feel rather complete with myself. I still feel hungry but I can actually THINK. Did becoming a gillian really make me think so clearly? I have always been under the impression that these towering hulks were the mindless of our kind. I wonder if-'
Her thoughts were suddenly halted when suddenly a pillar would be shot directly towards her. It would go directly into her chest as she collapsed against a smaller establishment. The sheer fact of becoming something human cost her to be distracted. That would hurt... A LOT! As the gillian slowly looked at her chest, she saw the pillar having some sort of static effect around it. This must have been some sort of technique because a pillar just wouldn't fly directly into her for no reason. She wrapped her hand around it and gripped it with all her heart as the object became nothing but rubble. She would begin to pull herself up as yet another pillar would come directly towards her! This time she was able to dodge that one as she moved over. She looked over to find a shinigami standing on top of a structure above her. This was the one rat was able to create these pillars. The female shinigami seemed frantic as she may have just witnessed her squad mates become chow to the hollow. A completely understandable circumstance but the gillian didn't care.
"The gillian's here!! It just killed them! It devoured them whole! Send back up now!!!" With that panicked tone, she shot what Hela could understand as Hado something something something. What a Hado was was unimportant to her. What was important was surviving another pillar! As a pillar shot out what seemed to be the damn air, Hela would quickly dodge it once more and begin to charge the structure where the woman stood. Hela rams her entire body into the structure which caused the structure's integrity to collapse. As the structure began to collapse, the woman would jump across. Maybe another snack would be in play here?! As she hopped over her, Hela would bounce up in order to snatch her! However, this did not prove to be easy at all.. Once the gillian laid a finger on the woman, her body immediately felt an insanely powerful zap across her body! The hollow began shaking rapidly as she tried catching herself. Whatever the shinigami had, it was protecting her from being touched. This prey was just too damn hard for Hela. It seemed that perhaps this wasn't going to be easy anymore.
As Hela recovered from this, she would look to find out where that shinigami went. Again, she found her on another structure and that's when shit was getting more ridiculous now. Hela banks for the next structure where she sat upon when suddenly that damned woman shouted some more nonsense. Large chains erupted from the ground below her and quickly wrapped around the gillian! Just what the fuck was going on here?! This is not like the other two idiots! Hela's body becomes enwrapped in chains as she comes to a complete stop. The chains tighten themselves around her body as she tries to move. The shinigami sat there with a weird finger position as if she was actually the one that held her in place! Hela would feel herself shot as she was now in an awkward jam. As the gillian tried to break free, the woman would shout out loud. "I have this damn thing held down... Hurry up!!!" Hela felt others coming faintly as she desperately tried to break out of this shitty imprisonment. Hela could feel her morale dropping when suddenly... more of them showed up.
Three shinigamis sprung from the air behind the one keeping her chained. Their swords were ready to strike the hollow down like a damn tree. Hela knew she won't last any longer if she sat here. "We got this! Take it down!" The same woman shouted as one of the shinigamis charging in started yelling like some sort of warcry. Like flies around a carcass, they jumped all around her, swinging their sharp blades against her armor. While initially this was proving ineffective, her plates would slowly begin to crackle at each strike she took all over. Her arms, legs, shoulders, and even her face were taking slashes. Hela tried biting one that came by but they were too fast for her... Time was running out for her as she was outnumbered and possibly even outclassed by this technique user. Hela would hatch one idea that may save her... If this doesn't work at all, then she will become chop suey to the shinigamis and lose her existence to them. The gillian would take a massive breath in order to prepare for what needed to come... As soon as she built up what she could, she would shout with everything she had. Windows, eardrums, anything sensitive to sound would shatter as the shinigamis would immediately pause their actions. The one casting this wicked ability would struggle...
"I-I-I can't... do this... anymore!" And with that, she quickly covered her own ears as the chains suddenly shattered like ice! Once this happened, Hela broke free and quickly acted in desperation as she stopped screaming and immediately kicking the shinigami closest to her foot! The rat flew like a kick ball as they collided into a building. The shinigamis were having to slightly recover from that immense scream as Hela would punch another one that was hovering in the air! She didn't care so much about eating them anymore as her survival was now a priority in this situation! The main shinigami would smack herself as she seemed aggravated by this whole ordeal. "Damn it! I can't believe it distracted me!" As the gillian tried to fend off now the recovered shinigamis, she began preparing yet another technique. "Alright you monster! You're not gonna get us this time! HADO-" before she could commence her technique, a hollow suddenly lunged out of no where from Hela's scream attracting it! It would attempt to pounce on her but the shinigami evaded it quickly. "Fuck! We got several hollows here now! Prepare yourselves!"
Hela heard exactly what she said and discovered a horde of hollows coming directly to them. It seemed her scream may have attracted them all to come here for some food. 'To think I was alone here and now I've got several of my kind coming to aid me... Maybe not aid me but I will consider it in the meantime...' Hela would feel the cracked armor around her feeling vulnerable. She decides that perhaps helping her brethren will be the only option to survive this ordeal. As waves of hollows came, the shinigami would fend themselves from the hordes that approached them. Hela would quickly jump onto the structure where her nemesis was and began to climb it in order to catch the caster. As the hado shinigami realized this, she instantly jumped to another structure to evade Hela's approach. That would be fine however as this wasn't her sole goal doing this. As she made it to the top, she would drop to her knees on the structure and open her mouth. 'I need to cause as much chaos as I can! They're not gonna just deal with us!!!' And with that, she bit down on the tower and unleashed a unique cero for this situation. With a chomp, her mouth glows and a large explosion occurs!
Black flames erupted everywhere as she wanted her special flames to ignite the entire area as well. With the hollows distracting them, she knew more chaos would eventually make this even harder for the shinigamis. As this happens however, the structure would begin to crumble as the flames fly over to other buildings. These black flames were the prime of her current abilities. Hela makes a jump towards another tall structure and lands barely on it. The main shinigami looked to see what Hela had done and felt almost in awe of her. She would form her fingers tightly and bring them close to her mouth, a loud whistle sounding off between her lips. Hela would look over to see what she was doing and it almost sounded like she was calling for help perhaps? The whistle traveled in a soundwave effect as any hollow near her flew off! The shinigamis below knew what this was but Hela not so much.
"We need to hold off the hollows until the others arrive from the Senkaimon! Focus on the smaller hollows and deal with the gillian last! Just evade it at all costs!" A Senkaimon? Hela's thoughts would question what a Senkaimon was but whatever that was it didn't sound good. The hollow horde was being cut down to smithereens and it seemed like the shinigamis had the upper hand in this whole ordeal. Hela peered over to see the other shinigamis slashing the hollows like grass which grew concerning for her. She had to act fast or else she would be left alone to handle this whole situation. Taking a step off the building, she quickly jumps down in order to attempt a perfect landing on a shinigami seemingly distracted. As she flew close in, one of the shinigamis shouted, "WATCH OUT!!!!" and before they could even react, Hela landed on the rat. She assumed her boot would kill the shinigami but she was wrong. The upper part of the shinigami stood out as he quickly panicked and tried stabbing his sword into her armored foot. "Damnit!! DAMN IT!!!" and before he could do anything else in defense, several hollows crowded on top of her foot and began to rip him apart.
Hela pulled her foot back and allowed the hollows to feed on him. Potential food was gone to the savages but that was fine. The shinigamis lost another one now as three of them remained. The caster shouted in terror, "NO!!!!" as she violently slashed through more hollows in vengeance for her fallen comrade. It seemed the battle was tipping closer to the hollows now. Hela knew this was a huge advancement and walked towards another shinigami being distracted. With her mighty steps, he could sense her coming. "Shit! There's just too many of them! We have to pull out of here!" The caster would begin some finger tricks once more and sent yet another pillar towards Hela. Hela wasn't paying any attention to her this time and takes a massive pillar to her back as she collapses to the ground. This gave the other shinigami a chance to move away from her. "Guys, we can't let these hollows go! We have to hold on just a bit! They're gonna be here soon enough to help! Keep going!!!" All this fucking yelling back and forth was annoying the shit out of Hela. Hela would push herself off the ground and look over at the caster once more.
It looked as if they locked eyes, perhaps the caster had a realization to something... "I think this gillian is different from the others... It's strategically acting out and not acting totally mindless..." She told herself as she slashed towards the other hollows. In reality, that was actually extremely true. Hela was a Menos Gillian and she had her own personality. She didn't think like these other hollows. 'I've gotta keep fighting... I have a terrible feeling that this will not end up well for me if I run now. I need to keep going!' Hela would press forward and ram herself into the structure again to get the caster down. Luckily, she was distracted by the hollows swarming her which made her lose her steadiness on the structure. As the building collapsed, she too fell with it. Hela knew deep down this wasn't going to kill her but she had to try and kill her! As the tower collapsed completely, Hela rushed in to find her.
The caster attempted to pull herself up but Hela caught her quickly. As soon as Hela collapsed her palms on her that fucking static shit was going once more. This time however, Hela kept herself on top of her as she was electrocuting herself. The shinigami remained unharmed throughout this but Hela was feeling the full effect of this technique. Hela's skin began to emit smoke as she tried her best to stop this technique. The caster felt a sense of fear as Hela was determined to catch this rat for good! The flames from her unique ability were spreading around the building near them as the kido user could only hope this technique would save her. Unfortunately for Hela, the technique prevails over her. As soon as it became too strong, Hela stumbled backwards and felt several plates on her body shooting off her skin. The electricity completely destroyed their integrity.
Like arrows having a whistle effect, several plates shoot off all around her, causing immense explosions the size of balas going off. Each explosion caused flames to burst out of thin air as she could feel her protection coming off. 'For fuck sake...! Not like this!' Thinking to herself as some of her armor was gone now. The caster rose from the smokey debris and vanished off with her step technique. The damn bitch gets away once more and Hela was left in a shittier situation. As Hela felt her bare skin open, she would turn over to see all her comrades completely being mowed down. The shinigamis were once again tipping it to their favor and Hela was running out of options now. Her armor was partially missing now and her companions were all disappearing. The garganta that took them all there was long gone so escaping was fruitless.
'It seems I'm being outmatched. I don't know what else I can do.' Hela would sprint towards the closest shinigami in order to catch them but again, they just use a step technique to evade her and the other hollows. The shinigamis began to get closer to each other as the hollows kept pouring in from all sides. It was almost as if they're really expecting more help but where? Hela knew these were the only shinigamis in the area because she felt it. She would begin to walk towards the group backing into each other. The caster had her sword drawn along with all the others. Was this their final stand? Hela had to get into this quickly before things changed. As Hela approached, one of the shinigamis yelled out. "There's too many of them! We can't keep this up!" Those were the words Hela wanted to hear. They're growing exhausted and weak from all this fighting. Hela began moving quicker. "THE GILLIAN! IT'S COMING!!!!" All four of them were staring at her as she approached. It seemed like she had her chance finally! It was time to end this!!!!
A click was heard from the skies... Hela felt immense strength where that click came from. She quickly stopped dead in her tracks. Oh no... She was too late to get rid of these shinigamis now. There's something serious about to happen now. The gillian slowly turned towards the skies and saw what appeared to be some sort of Japanese slider door opening up in the sky. The shinigamis feeling a sense of joy in the background as she now learned what a Senkaimon was... As the gates opened, horror froze her up. It looked like they were bringing it back up. Not just any backup though... They were bringing in strong, lethal, and devastating firepower through that gateway. The gillian stood there, looking at the one figure before her. Their figure was still a mystery as the light blocked their figures. Whoever they were... They were way ahead of her in power.
She might as well call this her end.
'Cyka... I'm either gonna be dead or barely alive after this.'
So there she was, standing right there. Everything felt slow motion for her as she stood perfectly still. The situation was so dire as she felt like she was stuck in a wedge. Fighting someone beyond her level is a risk she cannot afford. As the shinigamis cheered and rejoiced, the hollows around began to dwindle away. Some hollows would flee the battle while others would back off the group just to be shocked as she was. She looked around the environment and found hollows standing on buildings staring, the streets staring, hell even the ones around her staring. Many were probably thinking the same thing she was. ‘Great… So I guess I’m not alone when it comes to this.’
Many of the hollows around her began looking up to her as if she were the one to possibly lead this assault. She knew that wouldn’t be possible as this was a fight not getting into anymore. She had to think of something very quickly… It was all survival by this point. Fight or flight playing in this scenario. With this, the gillian would hatch possibly a dark but life saving scheme. She intended on giving the false hope of all the hollows around for the sake of her survival. Thinking back to earlier, she managed to pull reinforcements by simply shouting on the top of her lungs. The gillian took a deep breath, seeing all the flames around them that were almost impossible to extinguish. ‘I have to create enough trouble here to bring backup… If I can get a black hole ripped open, I will flee and leave these fools to themselves. I just need to somehow get every dumbass here.’ The gillian would look up at the figure once more as he pointed to the group of shinigamis in the final stand position.
“Squad, I’ve come to assist you in dealing with the situation. I see the gillian and the hollows are still rampant here… Casualties on both ends hmmm..” This individual was unique compared to the others. While their physical description was irrelevant, the plate on their shoulder represented something. Perhaps, this was a higher ranking shinigami. Though other than that, they still appear to be normal in appearance clothing wise. Hela would begin turning herself towards the other hollows, letting off what sounded like a bark of some sort. Hela would point to the higher ranking shinigami and slowly ball her fist. It was a sign that perhaps it was time to fight this shinigami.
“Huh? A gillian that’s communicating?” The shinigami questioned it before suddenly, the gillian inhaled all the air she could and began screaming on the top of her lungs again but this time it sounded like she was giving it her all this time as her life depended on this. As perhaps a signal to her allies, they all began pouring towards the newcomer. His eyes widened as this completely took him off guard. “What-?!” as he braced for the wave of hollows. The squad bunched up would appear completely stunned by her yelling when yet another wave began to swarm them. “Shit! Brace yourselves, we’ve got- AHHHHHH!” It seemed this wave was now actually overwhelming the squad now. They began to dogpile the shinigami squad as the gillian stood there in shock.
‘I did not expect so many to show up like this. Is this perhaps a victory after all?’ Before she could even think about it further, suddenly she felt an immense force for the higher ranking shinigami’s angel. She quickly turned and noticed their weapon completely changing forms. As it did that, the horde that was once powerful and mighty collapsed in fowl blow. Hela’s eyes widened under the gillian mask as she felt terrified about what she had witnessed. This was an immense power only she’s heard from the Espada of Hueco Mundo. As she gripped her fist and took a step back, more hollows swarmed them again and instantly fell before their blade. Hela was overwhelmed by the sheer power that had been presented.
As Hela backs herself up towards a massive building, the figure shouts out. “Fear me, vile creatures! Today is the day I set you all free!!!” Hela would bite down and accept this manner now. She may have to fight… ‘If it’s a fight you’re wanting, it’s a fight you’ll get you bastard!!!!’ As the stage was set, Hela would recollect one more memory before the finale of this showdown. It would pull her back at that moment she took the shot. It was a scary and dark time right at that moment as the memory starts off with men screaming and yelling, many soldiers mobilizing themselves for a hunt. They couldn’t locate just where she placed her shot but it was clear she was around.
Anya would jump through several rooms in order to escape her impending doom. A rain of bullets would run through the building as she seeks a way of escaping the mess she had just done. It felt completely hopeless as the MG42s poured all their lead into the structures around the camp. As she ran through a hallway, a sudden explosion behind her would go off as she would fly forward and smack against a wall. Structures all around behind her would collapse as she saw nothing but blurriness. Her vision was so disfigured as she heard a loud ringing from that explosion. Possible damage to her hearing was what she had feared but her life was in more danger than mere explosions. As she weakly looked up to the window ahead, she could see it clearly out of anything else. The window looked all white and heaven-like from the outside. Her illusion confused her so well as she tried to recover herself. “Jump comrade! Get through here! Your service for the Red Army is not over yet!” A voice that seemed angelic in nature called out to her from the window. It was time to go… As she weakly got up, she limped her way out of the window and saw her memory fading away.
Reality struck as fate would surely give Hela another opportunity like long ago. Due to the amount of energy centered in one area, it happened so suddenly but a garganta would rip open between the final shinigami and her. She blinked as that same voice from her memory would shout out through the garganta. Though, it was all in her head… ‘Jump comrade! Get through here! This is not your end!’ Then like that, the voice faded in her mind. Meanwhile, a couple gillians would stomp their way out of the garganta from the other side to face off the sole shinigami.
“Damn! More of these bastards! Bring it on!!!” It was all or nothing… Hela would begin sprinting with all her heart to the garganta as it slowly began to shut. As she ran in, the garganta would cease to exist now, leaving the two gillians and the rest of the hollows to fend for themselves. Inside the darkness, the gillian felt her heart pounding as her mind suddenly went white. A voice could be heard in the whiteness as things would go out slowly.
“My comrade… Your journey has just begun. Rest in your mind, Hela. You have much greatness ahead of you. Like your original self in the Great Patriotic War, you will persevere and show them all who you are. Good luck, my friend…” The voice fades as everything begins to shift. Her mind and inner being begin to clear up. That feral monster that was inside her extinguishes out and everything appears clear to her now. As the garganta rips back open to her home, she begins approaching it. It was time to change… “Hela, huh? I think that name suits me well now. I feel different… Something is changing in me… I need to get out of here and see what lies ahead of me.” The gillian takes her steps out of the garganta as it shuts directly behind her. This was now the beginning of something great.
