I peek out from my hiding spot to take a look at the fight between the soul reapers and the hollow that was trying to make me his midnight snack just a few moments ago. Looking at the soul reapers flailing their swords around in the air and missing the obviously huge target and prolonging an already boring fight would have been a comical show to watch if not for the fact that I needed them to win the fight or I'd be the dessert after the hollow is done chewing up their bones and I'm obviously not very mobile at the moment.

However for some weird reason watching them swing their swords around like amateurs irked me for some reason.

'Why though?' I thought to myself as for some reason it felt to me like the were disrespecting the weapon for some reason.

'What a weird feeling to have.'

I was still thinking to myself when I heard a loud shout.

"Hado No 4. Byakurai!" one of the soul reapers shouted while pointing his index finger towards the hollow causing a tiny bright ball of bluish white light to appear before his finger before turning into a fairly straight line of light and making its way towards the hollow's mask at alarming speed.

The hollow was being engaged by the other soul reaper but somehow it seemed to have sensed the incoming danger and quickly tried to jump out of the way but it only managed to move it's mask out of the way and the line of light hit his right shoulder and came out the other side.

'Well that was under whelming.' I thought to my self as I watched the ongoing battle as somehow his byakurai looked weak.

'It looked so much stronger when Captain Byakuya did it.' I thought again.

(A/N: Well duh, like can you believe this guy?)

The battle had already begun to tilt in the direction of the soul reapers due to the fact that the hollow's right arm had been immobilized by that hit on his right shoulder and it was pretty obvious that they were going to win the fight against the hollow.

Now that I know that I can focus on the more pressing matter at hand that is the weird mouths that appeared on the chains and are eating the chains and I don't think they're planning to stop until there is nothing left which is a bit worrying as that means I'm going to be transitioning into a hollow in a few minutes right in the vicinity of soul reapers. Weak looking and stupid soul reapers but soul reapers nonetheless. Hopefully I'd be able to turn before they're done with their fight and escape.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

And so I steeled my self to watch the most unnerving and disgusting thing I've ever seen take place just inches away from my chest. About two minutes later the chains were gone, nil, nada, eaten to nothing but what I expected to happen didn't happen as I showed no signs of turning.

'Maybe it needs more time,' I think as I get ready to run away from my hiding spot.

I had hardly stood up from my kneeling position when something like a pulse hit my body from deep within and I fell back to my knees. I was moving my hand to my chest when suddenly white sticky stuff appeared on my face.

(A/N: wait, what?[left eyebrows rises up])

It gradually starts taking the form of a mask. I touched an already formed part of the mask and felt the smooth surface and the sharp jagged teeth all the while my body was going through the metamorphosis. There was pain in the process but somehow I was able to shrug it off without a single shout though that didn't prevent me from shaking and gritting my teeth from the pain, seems I do have quite the pain tolerance.

As this was happening I could feel my spiritual energy being released from my body and at the same time undergoing a kind of change but I couldn't exactly describe the feeling.

A few moments later the transition was complete and I had become a hollow but somehow through all that those idiot soul reapers were still occupied by the one hollow and it didn't seem like they even noticed my transitioning just right behind them.

'Some soul reapers they are.' I think as I stand up and notice that I have become taller. I look at my arms to see my skin replaced by some sort of black tough looking skin with what seem like scales that fit into each other like a perfect armor. I look down and notice that the same had happened to my legs and I seemed to have grown an extra limb. Yes I now had a tail.

There was a glass door just beside where I was so I made my way over to it and took a look at myself and saw it was just as I thought.

I had become an oversized lizard!

"What the hell!" I almost screamed out.

I looked like the lizard from the amazing spiderman with a white lizard mask on my face. I did look a quite a bit fiercer and scarier and somehow I still had my long white hair flowing down to my back making a nice contrast to my black skin/scales. I also now had reptile looking eyes with slit like pupils and a hollow hole right smack dab in the middle of my chest. I try to put my hand through it and it felt kinda weird.

After taking a good look at my body and getting ready to leave, I decided to take a look at the fighting idiots before I left.

Upon taking a glance at them the look of apathy disappeared and I felt something so primal I could never mistake it rush through my body at high speed.

For the first time after getting into this new world,

I was hungry.
