It was late at night before Karina finally left the stark halls of Las Noches. As of late, she felt as if she'd been trapped inside the white walls, and as if it all was going to consume her. When she moved about, distant melodies of strange songs she couldn't recall rang throughout her mind. Those melodies, unlike the other songs she had heard, produced no euphoria. With each note, a soft pang of pain hit her; creating a melancholic attitude about her. She could feel her feet drag with every step she took as she moved along throughout Hueco. She knew exactly where she was going to go, and she knew exactly why. "I'm empty..." Her voice echoed throughout her mind. The downside of being a Hollow was the insatiable hunger you always had. Despite the fact that she was an Arrancar, she still had to consume every so often. She still had to revert to her old, disgusting ways. Anytime this happened, it pained her for there was only so much she felt she could take. As her zanpakuto tapped lightly on her body as she walked, she wandered deep into The White Forest.

Many trees with thick brush towered over Karina, but she remained un-phased here. There was just enough room to the point where she could attack and consume. Anything that was unlucky enough to run into her at this point was done for, which she felt completely and utterly horrible for. She wished she could remember what it was like before she was an Arrancar. Maybe it would give her the strength to resist this feeding that she felt was so needed. Not even the thought of the innocent souls could set her free at this point. With every Hollow she would see, her mind would just respond as "food." With that thought, a large Gillian appeared in a large clearing between trees. This is where the cannibalistic features overcame her typical nature. This is where she would let loose...

Her pupils dilated, her body tensed... Karina was ready. With that thought, she used sonido; leaving the familiar sound of static ringing throughout the atmosphere. The gillian was tall and looked the same as all the others... Pointed mask, black cloak-like body, and the hole...lying in their lower abdomen. She practically laughed before proceeding to pounce on the large menos; beginning to tear it apart, and eat it alive. Despite the fact that gillian were large, she towered over them in the measure of strength. Her ears and wings perked up to a noise behind her as she finished the appetizer to her meal. She immediately stood up, and whipped her body around to face her next course. There was more lower class hollow... many, many lower class hollow. Her bloody lips grew to a smirk as she saw the rest of her meal. She would tear them apart at this point, she was going to release...

Placing her hand on the hilt of her blade, she pulled Gorrion Comillo from it's sheath. Unlike a Shinigami, she didn't have a zanpakuto spirit. Instead, her precious Gorrion Comillo held her hollow form inside of it. That dreaded form that made her revert to her previous Hollow mannerisms. Although she hated it, she knew that she would feel at a loss of herself if she didn't continue to consume the hollow among her. She felt her mind returning to normal after just the one gillian, so the rest of the hollow would make her return for a while... Hesitant at first, she finally brought her sword above her head; her small wings spreading as her voice echoed about the forest, "Volare!" The faint milky glow of her blade grew to a brilliant shine, before the blade dissipated to feathers; spiraling downward in circles over her small frame. She watched as the hollow seemed confused at their opponent seeming to disappear before their eyes. The feathers began to glow brighter, and she appeared from them.

The hollows were obviously not wise, since they didn't run at that point. Karina was released in front of them. Her black mirrored eyes stared hungrily at her meal, and an animalistic smirk grew on her face before she proceeded to ready her talon-like nails. Although she was in a mood to play with her food first. Putting her arms out as if she was ready for an embrace caused her large, white wings to spread to their full wingspan. Bala began charging at her fingertips, and she shot them off at the trees; causing them to fall over onto the ground. A childish giggle escaped her lips as she watched the trees land on a few of the unsuspecting hollows, and she motioned for the rest to come towards her. Her laughing didn't cease as they ran towards her, still thinking they could consume her. Wrong. After Karina had used sonido, and gotten back a fair distance she spread her arms out again, but quickly crossed them over her chest; releasing many small feathers towards her opponents. Loud shrieks proceeded to echo along the forest as her feathers hit their targets. There was only one left of the group, one that she hadn't seen before... An adjuchas lingered in the back of the group; waiting for it's presence to be known. It was time for dessert.

She was growing tired, so she would end this one quick. As she leaped toward it, she brought her arm in a sweeping motion; smirking as the edges of her wings cut across the hollow, cutting it to ribbons. Karina watched as it's blood painted the forest's floor, as she hovered over it's carcass she knew her work her was done.
