Some Sort of Creature [ Private | Training ]

[attr="class","summer"]The Hollow's trademark skill, she could fire off a large beam of energy or multiple frenzied small blasts for Cero and Bala respectively. At her core she was limited to about 40 Bala before they began to backfire and send her flying backwards; regarding her Cero she could swallow an entire house with enough power and force to destroy more than half of the vicinity around it, contrasting with this immense amount of power she lacked the speed she needed to fire the technique without putting herself at risk. This is something she was going to change.

She could feel the power in her body trailing upward, from the soles of her feet to the palm of her hands, the goal was to be able to compress it into her fingertips. She needed to be able to fluctuate the size, into a simple beam or fanning it out for a wider range but a deduction in power. She also planned on being able to fire at least 100 Bala in rapid succession, and increase the charging speed of her Cero.

She decided to train her Cero first.

Tahliah turned her head and began charging again. The ball of energy charged in the tips of her fingers before she flicked her index digit and launched the deadly beam outward in front of her, its power trailing across the sands of Hueco Mundo sending a flurry of sand that flailed outward in each direction. A few trees that littered Hueco Mundo's white sands were caught in the destruction, forcing a smile on Tahliah's face. Pausing she concentrated her spiritual energy once again, pouring more of energy into the ball that was forming at her fingertips. She could feel it becoming more dense and compact the more energy she poured inside it up until its release into a singular beam of energy that demolished even more of the landscape. 

Her Cero was strong but she had seen and been the victim of stronger ones. She charged another Cero, this time pouring more energy into it at a faster rate causing it to bubble up before backfiring and sending her body flying backwards into the sands. Her back smashed through several dunes before she finally came to a stop. She felt like she had been hit by a train and she was truly taking a toll for trying to charge it too fast. 

The process was repeated a dozen times, each time she slowed down on her charging rate allowing for it to charge the proper amount before releasing it. The varying rate of success, brought her to the conclusion that she wasn't going to be able to do this unless she poured in the right amount of energy at the exact time, which would allow the Cero to harness its true potential.

She began to charge another Cero, this time she took the slow and steady route. She did not rush herself, she simply focused on charging which inversely made her body instinctively speed up the charging process little by little. Every fiber of her being remained focused as the Cero's power began to swirl around the digits of her hands with its size fluctuating into a small ball at the tip of her finger until she fired it. It was powerful, even more so than before and there was a significant speed increase.

Tahliah began to emulate what she had done before, the speed of her Cero becoming on par with its power. Everything was much smoother now. The thin beam of light being a true testament to Tahliah's power. She repeated this process about a dozen times until she was finally able to release a Cero at a faster speed with an amazing amount of power to match. Each usage resulted in the decimation of Hueco Mundo's lovely white sands, but the cat-like Hollow didn't stop there. 

Popping her neck she began to work on her Bala. Charging the smaller sized Cero at the tips of her digits before releasing 40 in rapid succession. They moved at the same pace with the same destructive power as the last, but now she needed to be able to create at least 100 without backfire.  She cocked her arm back and began releasing a volley of Bala, their violet-hues shooting across the skies until exploding upon the ground. Slowly she added more of her spiritual energy into the tips of fingers, in order to create more Bala. However, it backfired. Another mini explosion that sent her flying back a little until her body crashed into one of the quartz-like trees. 

Pushing herself off the tree she made no hesitation to trying again. A deep breath and a crisp inhale, and the flurry of Bala made an appearance once again, before the series of Bala ended she was already pouring in small amounts of reiryoku to increase the amount of Bala she could produce. She was taking note from the Cero, and manipulating the reiryoku to help it flow and thin out to keep from backfiring. 

From 40 Bala there came 50 and from 50 there would soon be a 100, after she made several more attempts using the same method of smooth flowing reiryoku. The smooth flow of her Bala allowing her to reach her peak of about 100 Bala before her body began to tire. Taking a knee, she let out an heavy breath before laying on her back and staring up at the night sky.
