Silent Night Arc

Prelude:A Chilling Start
The air is bitter and chilling. The moonlight beams down onto a tall field of grass, where an old shack is withering away. The sound of metal clashing as the green blades of grass get painted with blood. Six figures approach the old shack with extreme swiftness. Dressed in black from head to toe they each sign to each other saying the coast is clear. As they attempt to approach the entrance to the shack they sense strong and unnatural spiritual pressure.

A man in a Shinigami hanaka appears before them. He asks if they were tracking him, the five of them stay silent while the sixth man replies "There's nowhere to run deserter! give up!". The deserter laughs mockingly at the shinigami and refuses to comply. Out of frustration with the man he unmasks his face and intruduces himself to the suspicious character "I Takashi Nakahara 5th seat of the 2nd Division am ordering you to give yourself up or I will have to take you in by force!". The deserter arrogantly chuckles and replies "How's a child like you the 5th seat? And, anyway I don't think a scrawny kid like you can take me down even if your backup helped you!". The five men prepare to attack but are instead told to stand down by Takashi, "If you really think I'm weak, why do you keep your distance"? The words from Takashi seem to get under the deserter's skin. He takes a stance and says "Fine bug I guess I'll just take my leave AFTER I wipe the floor with ya!". Takashi gives a smirk and say "Okay. Fine. Shall we see if I'm strong enough to be a 5th seat then?".
