On the far west side of Karakura town, in the abandoned part of the neighborhood is an old factory. This factory was originaly a iron factory. But as of seven years ago it has been taken over by a man named Voldo Vercci. It is now a safe haven for people known as Bounts.
This factory has several stories, six to be exact not including the basement levels. So there is five upper floors and two basement levels. It was abandoned due to some freak accident that killed many of the workers. They say that it was faulty design in the building's contruction and was never used again. The government never tor it down because it would cost too much money to tear down so they left it there and abandoned it. Ocasionaly street gangs will try to take it as territory but they somehow always end up disapearing or in the hospital. No one knows what truely goes on in the abandoned factory, only that there is a rumor of a man and a woman living in the factory. But no one ever sees them come in or out of the factory.

Voldo sat in a chair and stared out of the window of the fith floor of the factory. A giant sword lay next to him. Today was of course just another day for him. He was rather bored with how things were going. yet another street gang came last night in attempt to vandalize the factory. But he took care of it. Now it was mid-day and he couldnt think of what was missing in this place. He stood up out of the chair and looked around. "what am i going to do." he groaned. He picked up his sword and walked out of the room. He entered the hall and headed for the elevator. as he entered the elevator he pressed the button for the ground floor. This would take him to all of the machinery which was now turned into a training room. He stepped out when the doors opened and took a deep breath.
walking over to a huge iron pillar he gripped his sword. He stopped about a foot from the pillar and took a stance. Luckily the pillar wasn't holding anything up so it was good for practice. He swung his blade and it made a loud clang as the two metals collided. He continued this for about an hour. all the while the sound of his training rang throughout the factory.

While walking through the abandoned part of town. James heard a starnge noise coming from somewhere. Curious to see what it was he slowly walked toward the direction it was coming from. His cane making a light click every time it hit the ground. In the end he found himself standing in front of a huge factory. He couldnt believe that their was anyone inside since it had been abandoned for years. He slowly limped his way to a window to look inside. What he saw astonished him. He saw a man swinging what looked to be a sword at an iron pillar. "Why would anyone be doing somthing like this around here?" he mumbled to himself.

Sensing the presence of another, Voldo stopped what he was doing and looked around. Spotting the man at the windo he smiled. "who are you? and why are you spying on me?" he asked in an inquisitive tone. He didnt know what the man's intentions were so he stayed where he was. He couldnt help but wonder if he was one of the Soul Society's goons. And if the man was that could only mean that he was here to exterminate him. Looking around he couldnt help but wonder if the man was alone. " Are you here alone or do you have friends with you." He asked in an inquisitive tone.

James was in awe over the man. Why would someone be here in a place like this?. "NO! i wasnt spying and i came here by myself. I was just wondering what you were doing here." he said in a suprised tone. He never expected that someone was actualy living in the abandoned factory. "So what is that?" He said pointing to the object that the man was carrying. He couldnt help but be nosey it had been a long time since he had seen anyone in the abandoned part of the city.

Voldo looked at the man. "Before i tell you what this is, tell me who you are." He said in an instructive tone. He held his blade in his hand. The blade was made of what seemed like skin and steal. But what was worse was that it had an eye that moved constantly shifting its gaze from one place to the next. He was sceptical of the man and did not want to reveal his true identity to anyone unless he could trust them.

James worried about giving his true identity to this stranger but he had no choice. "I am James Noel. Ive lived her for eighty years. Yes, i know it sounds like im lying but its the truth." He said in a sincere tone. He looked around then looked back at the man. "I have lived here for so long and yet ive never even known that anyone had lived here." He said in truth. he realy never knew anyone around Karakura Town. James looked at the man with honest eyes. But worried that he might not believe him.

Chantre walked to the abandoned factory, holding a bag in her right hand. Her shift was over at the hospital and the bag held her uniform. Now she was wearing more comfortable clothing, a nice long skirt and a white blouse. She was coming in to see how Voldo was doing, and she would probably have to check on Conrad today too. She was undecided on how to use her time after she had visited them both, perhaps she would window shop, or work on some tapestry. Well either way, first things were first. She stepped in, and found that there were two people there. She really should have paid attention to what was going on, and now she was interrupting. “Sorry, I didn’t know there was company here.” She smiled sheepishly and automatically took a step back. “Do you need me to leave?” She would leave if asked, and was already planning to just visit Conrad first.

Voldo was now sceptial of the man. He didnt look a day over thirty years old. "So either your a soul reaper in a gegai or you a Bount like us." He said in a thoughtful tone. He looked at Chantre. "Hey Chantre! it looks as if we have a new visitor. What do you think? Is he a soul reaper?". He said in an inquisitive tone. "If your not a soul reaper then let us see your doll." he said in a calm tone. If the man didnt have a doll then he could very well be a soul reaper. If he isnt a soul reaper then they can help him earn his doll.

“Oh?” Chantre walked up to them both and looked at James with a smile. She was thoughtful for a moment then said, “I don’t think so. I would say he’s a Bount.” He certainly did not feel like a shinigami. Unexpected visitors certainly made a day more interesting. She was quite pleased to meet someone new, but invariably she knew what Lesaria would think of new people. She looked at the visitor calmly, and inspected him for a while. He seemed truthful enough, so she thought she could trust him.

The roar of the engine, the wind in his hair, these were the things that a Bount could enjoy to the fullest. The thumping of the motorcycles wheels over the small speed bumps sent some jolts through the old Harley. Conrad had visited the new Kadaver a few times. He personally didn't care for the new one, but Chantre had peacefully declined the position, so he would have to live with it. Pulling up to the open door way, Conrad noticed that Chante was making her rounds as well. But that wasn't as interesting as the new person there. He looked a little like an old fogy with the cane and all. In the end, Conrad pulled up on the opposite side of everyone, halfway through the door before he turned off the engine and got off the bike. He was dressed in his normal casual attire: maroon bandanna, back muscle shirt, jeans, boot, knuckle gloves, leather jacket, and some very snazzy shades. After getting off he pulled the sunglasses of and flicked them close as if they were a balisong and put them in the right breast pocket of the jacket. Nodding to Chantre, he spoke up to Voldo: "Who's the old guy?"

Voldo Smiled when he heard Chantre say the man was a bount. "Well, this is a suprise. You may very well be older than all of us, yet you dont have a doll? Very interesting." he said with a grin. He let out a laugh. "welcome to the Bount hideout. Please make yourself at home." he said with a smile.
Voldo then turned to see Conrad coming in with his loud motorcycle. "Jeez, Conrad. Cant you find somthing a little less noisy to drive around the hideout. Im suprized that we dont have people knowing that we are here." He said with his hand to his face. He then looked at Conrad. "Apparently we have a new addition to the Bounts." He said looking back at the man. "im sorry i forgot to introduce myself. I am Voldo Vercci and this is Chantre and Conrad." he said with a smile.

James smiled at the sudden welcome. "Uhhh... thanks." he said in a suprised tone. He looked at the woman and smiled. He then turned to the man who itroduced himself as Voldo. "Im James Noel. Ive lived in this town for a while now and i never thought there would be anyone els like me living here." He said with a smile. "Im sorry but you mention me not having a doll... What is a Doll anyways?" he asked in an inquisitive tone. Though he knew about the eternal life thing he had no knowledge of anything called a Doll.

Chantre watched Conrad come in and nodded back to him. Lucky for them it seemed like all the Bounts were together today. “It is a pleasure to meet you James.” She smiled to herself and thought how this reminded her a bit of how Conrad had not known there were other Bounts here either. “Well a Doll is a manifestation of a Bount’s power. It’s easier to explain if you see one.” She looked around at Voldo and Conrad, just wondering if she should show the new comer her Doll. Well, she saw no reason not too so she reached into her bag and pulled out the familiar dragon pin that she usually had on. She hadn’t put it on after her shift, but now it didn’t matter. “I bid thee come, Lesaria.” The pin jumped away from her hand, and warped into Lesaria’s released form, the winged figure with abnormally long arms. Lesaria herself looked at the new comer suspiciously and turned back to Chantre. “Again?” The echoing voice sounded most displeased but Chantre’s face was very amused. “Sorry, but I thought you might like to show this one what a doll is.” Lesaria’s clawed tail whipped about for a moment, like she was frustrated, then stopped when she said, “I see.” Chantre nodded to herself then motioned to Lesaria with a smile saying, “Well this is my Doll. Her name is Lesaria.”

Voldo smiled at the display. "Well its been a while since we released our dolls." He said with a smile. He took his blade and stabbed it into the ground. With his hand on the hilt he grinned. "Zeige Dich, Euryale." He said in a caqlm tone.
The sword started to shake then swiftly morfed into a woman with pale skin and snakes for hair. She was dressed in leather which showed alot of skin. she kept her eyes closed yet she knew where Voldo was immedeatly.
"You called My lord? What is it that i may do for you?" she said in a velvet like voice.
Voldo smiled. "I wanted to introduce you to a new member of our group. He has no doll so i thought we should introduce ours to him." He said putting his hand on her cheek. He looked at James and smiled. "id like to introduce the very lovely Euryale. Euryale is my doll." He said with pride in his voice.
