A threatened conversation.

[kruzy]

Sake was out on patrol tonight. His squad members were given a much needed break, and as a token of goodwill to his sqaud, he took the nights watch on the town. Without a gigai, only those capable were able to witness the white robed shinigami captain leaping upon rooftops in the dark night.

Captain Kruzyama had a sudden feeling that made his heart sink like a ton of bricks. It definitly wasn't another shinigami, as Sake would've known who came through the gate. "A hollow? or arrancar?" ran through his mind before anything else. Without any more hesitation, Sake rushed to the area of this enormous reiatsu. When he got there, nothing was seen. No body, no monster, nothing. Sake looked into the sky and around him, but nothing could be seen, yet the feeling was strongest here. Sake placed his right hand onto his zanpaktou and stood ready at a seconds notice.

"Who dares to disturb this town tonight... Show yourself and give your reason, and you might be spared." Sake said with the utmost intention to threat and have the creature or being show its form.

"Theres not much you shinigami can do anymore..... sir captain" A booming voice called out. Still unreveiling itself at the moment.

But though the corner or Sake's eyes he could see a rapid paced being move around him. 'Who was this being... and when will he show himself..'

[Tagz]

Kisamana had been relaxing. She wasn’t in her Gigai, nor was she looking over her convenience store. She was calmly relaxed on a bench, under a tree, in a wide opened field. Then, she felt a large amount of reiatsu come rushing in her direction. This person, whoever he or she was, had already ruined her relaxing feeling. However, she managed to replace it with excitement. To repay him, she suddenly let her reiatsu spill, hoping to gain his attention. Maybe she’ll have some fun with this person. As he got closer, she quickly repressed her reiatsu until it was no more special than a human who could see spirits. On top of that, she hid herself behind a tree as the man came, flying in from the rooftops.

"Who dares to disturb this town tonight... Show yourself and give your reason, and you might be spared."

She heard this and made up her mind to play with the poor boy’s head. Who the hell was he to speak as though he was in any position to be speaking as though he held anyone’s in his hands? What power did he have to be able to say such things? He was nothing but a lowly Shinigami. Despite his obvious Captain status, he was a weak Shinigami, nothing more, nothing less. At least, that’s how Kisa saw things. After all, she had attained and long since surpassed the rank of Captain. For his disrespect, she’ll screw with his mind. Attempting to make her voice as low and booming as she possible could, trying to sound as though she were the omnipotent ruler of the underworld.

“There’s not much you Shinigami can do anymore..... Sir captain”

She spoke as if there were some soul that had been in need, but she devoured. Of course, she didn’t have a taste for eating souls anyway. However, with her demonic and Hallow-esque reiatsu, that would’ve been his initial thought. Not noticing the speedy cat that dashed by – probably being what the man caught a glimpse of – Kisa continued with her speech.

“Who are you to disturb my meal anyway? Who are you to act as though you could match up to the real God of Death anyway? Explain yourself, apologize for your insolence, and I may spare your meaningless life.”

With that, she began bursting out in laughter. Moving into the Captain’s view, she had her right hand balled into a fist and rested that very forearm on the bark of the tree. Leaning and relying on her right are to keep her upright, she let her left hand rest on her hip. She gave the man a stern look and she spoke again, this time in her average tone of voice.

“But seriously, apologize to me and you may continue with your worthless existence.”

As she instructed the man to do this, her facial expression remained unwavering. She possessed that same stern look. However, Kisa was filled to the brim with excitement. She knew full well that the Captain would not only refuse to do as she commanded, but probably go so far as having the audacity to raise his blade against 'The Mighty Hakuyen Kisamana'. This was exactly what she was hoping for. It had been quite some time since she got to face off against anyone who just might be capable of forcing her to bringing out her Hallow mask. Regardless, it was almost a guarantee that she’d get to use her Bankai. If this man couldn’t even force her into her Bankai, then he had no right to be rockin’ that famous white Captain’s vest… no sir-e bob.

[kruzy]

Sake's serious stern look somwhat faded and began to look as though a laugh were to break loose. He looked over to where she had come out from behind the tree. She was almost familiar, yet he couldnt place a time or place where he might of seen her before. Most definitly she was a shinigami at one point, but to which rank he didnt know.

"You dare demand me.... a protector of the people to apologise to such a villian such as yourself? Your nothing but scum to the world, and scum is always cleaned." Sake said with his hand still upon his blade, he had only moved a few feet closer to her, keeping eye contact, as a samurai would always do, to predict any sudden movements and to defend on.

She stunk of vizard now, which Sake hadn't noticed til now. So it wasn't a weak opponent he would soon be facing. It would obviously be a tough battle.

"So you wish to make me apologise? because you will not. You dare try and MAKE me... haha, I would LOVE a great battle."

Instantly, Sake pulled his blade out from it's sheath, placing the katana out in front of him and stood in his fighting stance.

"Come if you dare, or rid of yourself from this world with honor..."
Sake's honor as an old samurai was known all over the Soul Society. It didn't matter who the opponent was, or what and if the odds were, he would fight til the end, and he never backed down.

[Tagz]

This boy was… as the kid’s say ‘cruising for a bruising’. Kisa simply looked at the man with a cheery, flirtatious smile.

“Scum… why all the negativity?”

As expected, the hasty Shinigami unsheathed his Zanpakuto. Not only did he have the nerve to raise his blade against Kisamana, but he was giving her options. The options she was given were confusing. The challenge was certain, but was her other option suicide? How would that show honor? No, no. This would not do. She didn’t even recognize the Shinigami, meaning he had reached captain status after she left the Soul Society. The true age of a soul was always a difficult thing to tell. He was a child in her eyes, though for all she knew, he could have lived for a century more. Despite that, she still viewed the man as nothing more than a boy barely in his early teens.

With her right hand, Kisamana drew her own Zanpakuto. She brought it down to her side. Her joyous and playful outlook suddenly changed and was replaced by a sadistic smile. The area was suddenly filled with killing intent. Kisa suddenly seemed to have disappeared. F*** jewelry, Shunpo was a girl’s best friend. She would reappear behind the man, slightly off to his left side. Her sword moved forward, in an upward direction, aiming to leave a large gash on his side stretching from his lower hip to just below his ribcage. She had high expectations for the Captain. She figured he’d be able to dodge the simple attack with little to no difficulties. Giving him a split second to defend himself, she utilized the same technique and disappeared from sight once more only to reappear at ten feet to his right. Then, pushing off with decent speed, she aimed to cut through his chest, and should his Zanpakuto intercept the attack, she’d just keep pushing him back. She would play around for now; let him step things up if he wanted.

[ooc: Sorry, I know it’s a short post… >.>]

[kruzy]

"Childish attempts you have there" Sake said while easily defending himself. Using his own flash step to counter the attacks, and his skillful swordsmanship to somwhat 'play' around with Kisa's attempt to push him back.

"As a captain do you think id be easily unaware of tactics and types of fighting?."
Sakes next move was somwhat the same, he used flash step to move away from Kisa's attack to push him back, and re-appeared coming down from the sky in front of her. His blade pointed straight towards her, his arms folded inward so when upon closer range he would lunge his sword into her chest.

However... His captains robe however would suddenly vanish, just centimeters away from Kisa, where he would land abruptly behind her, quickly and almost instantly changing from a frontal confrontation, to a sneak around...

"White Lightning"..... he said under his breath, his blade pointed at Kisa, his index finger lifting off of its tight grip, while the rest of his fingers kept wrapped around the hilt.

[Tagz]

Childish attempts? Kisa was hurt. He was obviously not the type to enjoy a battle. She was. She didn’t want to kill him off that easily, but since he obviously wanted to get straight to the point, she’d get a little more serious. What bothered her most was he was speaking as though she was oblivious to the power of a Captain. Oh no. She knew full well the capabilities of a Captain. She still looked down on them, but she did not underestimate them…

The man suddenly disappeared. She knew full well what he was doing. Though she couldn’t see him, she felt kept track of him by sensing his reiatsu. He appeared high above her, coming down with his Zanpakuto pointed forward. As she raised her arm to defend against it, he disappeared once again. This time he appeared behind her, with two fingers extended. She was easily able to keep up with his speed and was facing him before his shot blasted from his fingers. Once again, Kisa used incredible speed to avoid the attack. However, she didn’t use Shunpo for long. No, no, she didn’t have very far to go. She simply used it to duck out of the way and appear below the man. Now, the top of her head was around waist high to the man. She held her Zanpakuto in her right hand and swung it vertically, aiming to cleave off the arm he used to hold his Zanpakuto and fire off the White Lightning. From there she disappeared once again only to reappear twenty feet away from the front of the man. She held her Zanpakuto out to her right side as it began swirl around with wind and reiatsu. When the wind died down, there was a noticeable change. Her Zanpakuto was pearly white as always, but the hilt, guards, and shape of the overall sword changed. She did this for her annoying opponent. Since he didn’t want to enjoy himself, she’d step it up a notch, nothing dramatic, just a single notch.

After the transformation of her Zanpakuto, she pointed her left hand at the man. Her fist was clenched with the exception of her index and middle fingers which were outstretched and pointing at the man. She fired off a blast of blue lightning at the man via White Lightning. Then, before the blast could even near his target, she disappeared and reappeared behind him, slightly to his left side using the same technique they had been using throughout the entire battle. She knew he would be able to block the attack, but due to Kisa’s timing, he’d only be able to either block against one attack or the other. However, he did have the option of using Shunpo on his own, however, since she fired off the White Lightning first, she assumed his initial thought would be to stay and block. Then when she appeared behind him, he’d lose focus, become confused for a split second, and lose any time he had to evade both attacks altogether. However, she wasn’t one to underestimate an opponent. Incase he did manage to use Shunpo in time, she’d fire off the same blast, and use the same tactic she just did, giving him no time to make a counter.

[kruzy]

Sake wasn't too much caught off gaurd by her tactic, as it was also a tactic that could hurt herself in turn. An attack fired off at him, then she would appear behind him, he could easily move out of the way to where she could get hit by her own attack with little to no defense time. But instead Sake continued his white lightning attack, intercepting her blue lightning, voiding eachother out with nothing but a gust of dusty wind and reaitsu dispersing the area.

With the time he said his white lighting attack, Sake noticed Kisa setting off her blue lightning in exchange, with the enactment of this, he noticed the release of her zanpaktou.

"Echo....." He said under his breath, rolling his eyes. His own zanpaktou would be released now, as it was, it sent out a high pitched squealing noise, which with most opponents was deafining, but to a tougher opponent would just be an annoying buzz, not much to hurt, but to make an opponent twitch or second guess what they were doing. As a ringing in sombody's ears would almost annoy anybody.

With that split seconds release, Sake disappeared again, he would now try a game of cat and mouse with his opponent, trying to take her to an open field where jumping from roof tops where unavailable. They weren't spiderman, and he'd have no time for games.

"Want me?.. follow me... you like games don't you... little girl." Sake said aloud, Making sure she wasn't attacking from behind again, as he kept a watchful ear to his surroundings. If she were to follow, Sake would have no problem using his full zanpaktou's power. Being so close to humans would deafen even the strongest one, so he needed more room.

Maybe she'll actually find more fun in a battle of pure even grounds.. he thought to himself.

[Tagz]

Kisamana twitched a little. It wasn’t because of his released Zanpakuto. No, that wasn’t it. She was simply trying to keep her anger under control… Who was he calling a ‘Little Girl’?

Still… what was up with his Zanpakuto? It began emitting a loud buzzing noise. How was one supposed to focus with that thing ringing in their ears? Was he going to be doing that the whole battle through? Was his Bankai going to be similar or worse? Did he even have a Bankai? Hopefully not, if it was worse his Shikai, she might be deafened. Now that was no fun. Looks like she’ll just have to take him out before they ever reach that stage…

“With pleasure...”

She said, accepting his challenge.

But… this was odd… really odd. No, not him being able to stop her attacks, that was completely expected. What was odd was that he seemed to be lightening up. He seemed like he was going to start having fun. He began running off, and called for her to follow him. Naturally, she would. Her following him had nothing to do with ‘The Birds and The Bees’. No. It just seemed like the most interesting thing to do at the time. Yes, like a child, she did whatever appeared to be the most thrilling. As of now, going head to head with a Captain Shinigami was the most thrilling. She followed the man into a clearing. There was nothing but trees and an average sized river flowing underneath them. Was he afraid of hurting the innocent? Damn benevolent Shinigami… Unfortunately, she had to agree with his intents. Despite her status, she still holds most, if not, all the values she had when she was a Captain herself.

Once the two stopped moving, she felt it time to continue with their battle. She did not want to attack while her opponent’s back was turned and busy focusing on finding a better location. No. There was absolutely no fun in that. If it wasn’t obvious by now, fun was her only goal for the evening. She had been watching over her shop for quite some time and felt deserving of a little sparring session. However, it was a little better than just a sparring session. If she went up against another Vizard, then she’d be holding back slightly, preventing any fatal blows that may occur by taking things to far. There was no fear of that now. Her opponent most likely wanted the woman did. Things were always more fun when death was a plausible outcome…

Kisa’s next Kidô would be different from her last. This time she’d create a black rectangular casing to surround her opponent. He was most likely knowledgeable to what the Kidô was and what could be expected to come next. As dozens of spear-like objects made from pure energy were created all around the box and heading to stab and puncture the Captain. She wouldn’t even wait for them to pierce the coffin before she’d slash away. She sent two, crescent shaped waves of white water. The waves would be able to slice through the box and through his flesh. That is, if he didn’t protect himself. However, he was not just wearing that white jacket for show. He had previously proven himself to be resourceful. Utilizing the Shunpo once more, she placed herself down below, standing atop the water. She didn’t rest. No. She sent yet another wave of water soaring through the sky. He may be powerful, but she’d keep putting pressure on him until he finally cracked and succumb to her constant thrashing.

[kruzy]

Sake had a slight grin upon his face with Kisa's next attack, it wasn't predictable this time, but it was actually a good strategy.
"Hmmm, seems she may know what she's doing..." He said to himself, but the oddness in his face didn't leave. As he waves began to approach him and the last part of her kido was aiming towards him, he started to chuckle...

"frequency... Howl!" He yelled aloud. His voice boomed as his reaitsu grew increasingly from his zanpaktous attack. It was the attack that made his release look like childish antics. As 'Howl' was made up of reaitsu, it sent out squeals almost ten times worse than his release, but along with that it had a hurricane like wind, made up of that same reaitsu, her Kido spell was blocked with the wind alone, but the squeals were aimed directly at her, and covered the hole area, where unless you had sinder blocks for a head, you wouldn't feel it.

Her white waves however, still came crashing down, but with less force than he was sure she was trying for. As he himself was injured by pressure of the waves, yet it was his reaitsu bocking the water itself from hitting him, his next hadou was powerful as well, it was called "thunnder of sounds" which emitted lightning strikes and high pitched squeals to an opponents ears, and electric shocks. And we all know what water does with electricity. If by any chance Kisa was at all wet, she would be sure to be electricuted, never mind bothered by both Sake's zanpaktous 'howl' combined with his own spell.

"Ill give you credit... your not bad at all... but as a newer captian, we ARE trained to defend against these kind of things... to prevent mishaps like the past... He said with slight confidence.

"But... every captain has his defeats... no matter when... i accept death no matter when, but i refuse to die today!!

If Kisa wasn't harmed, and followed through with her slashing towards him, she'd be in a big surprise, as if his zanpaktou... (made of two blades millimeters apart).... were hit by her blade, they would echo on thier own, an inner defense if you'd call it. Echo was another shower of high pitched squeals, created by the vibration of an opponents blade clashing with his own. But also, he was however a real samurai of his past, and he could spar when it came down to it.

[Tagz]

The wind picked up, to say the least, and there was another high-pitched squeal harassing Kisamana’s ears. It was obvious what this man’s style was. First, he’d prevent his opponent from thinking properly, then, he’d slip in and slit their throat. Kisa held her stance even with the whipping wind. However, the squeals were more than bothersome. Damn him and his tactics. It took a moment for her to recollect her thoughts, despite the loud squeals shrieking in her ears. Kisa gripped her blade tighter, but before she had a chance to deal some real damage, her opponent sent out a Hadou that rained electricity and more high-pitched squeals down on the woman. This was a problem. Electricity plus water equals very bad. What was she to do? The smartest thing she could. The squeals hit Kisa long before the electricity could. Kisa felt something strange. It felt as though her ears ‘popped’ and now she couldn’t hear a thing. Ain’t that some shit? No matter, Kisamana was beginning to enjoy the battle even more. The level of difficulty and handicaps she was given only made the fight that much more interesting. She couldn’t wait to see how it ended, though she obviously wanted to come out the victor.

“Ill give you credit... your not bad at all... but as a newer Captain, we ARE trained to defend against these kind of things... to prevent mishaps like the past...”

Kisa reminisced for a moment. It was true, she did have a few mishaps in her time, but she was sure that the Captains nowadays still had their fair share of failures, and threats. If not, then Soul Society has become a boring place. Kisamana blacked out for less than a second, though in her own mind, it felt like an eternity.

‘Chirping, the birds must’ve been happy. However, Kisamana wasn’t. Neither was her Third-seated Shinigami. She took this man, Torai, on a mission that was supposed to be simple. She figured that alone he’d be able to handle the threat, but she was sadly mistaken. She was the Captain of the Tenth Squad, which was in charge of Outer Defense in the Living World. There was a Shinigami fighting alongside a few weak hollow. What was the meaning of this, and more importantly, who was this Shinigami? Why was he attacking humans? And how is it that his reiatsu was unfamiliar to anyone within Soul Society? Kisa had many thoughts and worries running through her mind, but she still underestimated the other man. She sent in the Torai, Third Seat Shinigami of the Tenth Squad to deal with the foul creature that was tainting the reputation of Shinigami everywhere.

Torai announced himself, as most Shinigami do and then raised his released Zanpakuto to the man. The blade had an intricate design on in, and had an odd shape to it. The opponent’s was simplistic and not very menacing at all. Added to the fact that his reiatsu was somewhat being repressed, Kisa was led to believe that it was in its Shikai, just like Torai’s. Unfortunately, this was not accurate, it was in Bankai.

The other man defended himself, effortlessly, and returned blows no more powerful than Torai’s. Then, he began bombarding Torai with a series of Kidô. This caused Kisa to raise an eyebrow to this man. How did he know how to use Kidô? And why was he wearing their uniform? This shit just didn’t make any sense. Regardless, Kisa stayed out of the fight. That is, until a hollow showed up behind her. The hollow was stronger than the ones the fake Shinigami had with him before. This one was much different. Kisa went head-to-head with the cretin while Torai was facing off against the Shinigami. Kisa’s opponent was tall, had four muscular arms with mouths on the palm of each hand. It also had two large, furry legs and hoofs for feet. Kisa’s opponent also had two large bat-like wings spreading out from its back. Kisa looked at her odd hollow of an opponent with saddened eyes. When did she get herself sucked into a legend? This creature looked like something out of a Greek Mythology book.

Kisa and her opponent were clashing for several minutes, as were Torai and the other Shinigami. It took Kisa sometime to slice off one of the man’s arms. Then, she heard a loud shriek. Apparently it was Torai. She sensed that his reiatsu had completely diminished, could this mean that he was… dead? Kisa turned around; completely ignoring the creature she was supposed to be killing. She turned in time to see her opponent with a sheathed Zanpakuto while Torai’s body fell lifelessly to the ground with several stabbing wounds. This just wasn’t fair…

Kisamana returned her attention to her opponent, but making sure that she kept an eye on Torai’s murderer. She returned her attention in time to see her opponent coming in to attack. She unleashed her Bankai, not because of the difficulty of the battle, but out of sheer anger. With the sudden and immense change of strength, Kisa tore apart the hollow with little to no trouble. She then turned around and set her sights on Torai’s former opponent. Kisamana dove at him with great speed. With the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of the other Shinigami and swung at him as hard as she possibly could have. However, he opponent was much stronger than she had previously anticipated. It took her a while, but she got her revenge on the man. She also lost a good friend and one of the most hardworking Shinigami in her squad. All because he was caught off guard by a powerful Kidô known as ‘Black Coffin’. This got under her skin. They were taken off guard. How was this possible? Damn fake Shinigami. If only she was prepared for a situation like that. Maybe if she had a clue as to how skilled he was, she wouldn’t have sent in Torai and lost him forever.’

Kisa mentally shook those thoughts out of her head. That couldn’t be what this man was talking about. She was trained to handle situations like that, but she was arrogant and didn’t prepare for every possible outcome. Then the man continued to speak. His words didn’t make sense. What in the world was he talking about?

“If you refuse death today, but all good Captains accept death no matter what, aren’t you just saying that your not a good Captain? And saying that you always accept death, but refuse death, you’re contradicting yourself… get yourself together and make sense when you speak. Otherwise… just don’t speak…

Kisa’s tone of voice moved from confusion to disappointment. Though she was still thinking about past experiences, she had new problems to deal with. She was deaf, and still had a Captain Shinigami to deal with. No matter, it shouldn’t be too difficult. She already knew that it was best to keep a distance from the man because the farther she was from the source of the squeals, the easier it’d be to shake them off… hopefully. Using Shunpo, Kisa moved herself away from the water and twenty feet in behind Sake and thirty feet above him. Then, Kisamana used another Kidô.

“Halting Fabric… Hundred Linked Bolts.”

Kisa spoke melodiously. These two songs would hopefully turned things into her favor. This first song of the Kidô would cover Sake head-to-toe in spiritual fabric. This would hopefully hold him long enough for her to deal damage with the same ability she used couple times already. Once he was wrapped, he’d be stabbed by metal blades. To top things off, Kisa swung her Zanpakuto twice, sending two, crescent-shaped waves of white water hurtling towards the man. Hopefully this would end things.

[kruzy]

Sake stood staring up at Kisa with a bit of dissapointment, not in her attack, but upset she moved in time before the lightning could hit her... 'she's fast.... ill give her that much' he though to himself, quickly shaking off the thought. It seemed as if she blacked out for a second, as Sake noticed her eyes shifting wanderously around their battlefield. It seemed as though the high pitched squeals have done an effect, but not enough to Sake's liking.

Within seconds later, she would appear behind him, and within the time he turned around she would apply another kidou, one Sake hadn't praciced at all, but had only seen rumors in the history books.

"Great.... another spell of yours.."

He said aloud before being engulfed in her attack. He was covered in what seemed to be darkness, and with this he couldn't move. The only thing capable was the use of either reaitsu, or speaking to use another attack. Or... at the least, use both, but not at the full power he could use if not engulfed. Soon all sounds would be blocked from Kisa, as the spiritual fabirc engulfed him.

"Hadou #1........... Was Sake's first response to her attack. This wasn't aimed towards Kisa at this time. The attack was hopefully to be fulfilled as a forcefulness to push the spiritual fabric away, using a lot of Sake's strength to push through.

While breaking through her kidou spell, he wasn't totally able to defend himself with her followed attacks. The only thing with the time he had left was to use a small flashstep, only enough to move 10 feet to the side and pull his blade up in a defense stance.

The waves however hit Sake like a ton of bricks. The water was like being thrown from a cliff into an ocean of water with floating glass (somhow lol). His blade was able to relect some of the attacks power, but not enough. As the attacks were finished, Sake was panting, regaining his breath. His white robe had been dissolved by the attack, leaving half of the sleeves, and many small cuts on his face and body,

"Your tougher than i had thought.... im impressed" He would say with his eyes lock on her, as he stood on the ground, his blade still raised. He wasn't done yet, oh no, his shikai still had power to go, and if having too, his bankai. But he wasn't ready to hit the limits yet, he wanted to see what combat skills she would have.

"So... whats your next attempt to destroy me? hmm girl? i hope that wasn't you best attack"

He spoke with a slight grinn now, he had somthing brewing in his head. He wanted to see her next attack plan, then maybe this battle could be finished.

[Tagz]

[ooc: Sorry for the long wait]

The first part of her plan was successful. Unfortunately, in battle, there were times were success didn’t last very long. Unfortunately for Kisamana, this was one of those times. Not long after her opponent was engulfed by spiritual fabric, he let out forceful push and escaped his confinement… ain’t that a bitch? Though, if he hadn’t broken out of her Kidô he’d be plummeting to the earth in pieces right about now, Kisamana was still somewhat pleased that her attacks did some damage. Kisa watched as Sake tried to catch his breath. She also noted that the white robe he was most likely very proud to wear was, for the most part, destroyed during her attack. It may not have been much, but the odds were turning in her favor. Her opponent had taken more damage than she had, but a lifetime of fights would teach one that that was no reason to get cocky. Then again, it was Kisa, a woman who was overconfident but nature.

“Your tougher than I had thought.... I’m impressed.”

Kisa felt a rush of anger suddenly rising up within her. Was this man actually thinking that he was better than she was? Why, because he was a Captain? So what? She had been one to. Better yet, she upgraded from Captain by attaining a level of power this man certainly had not. Scratch that. Better yet, she was Hakuyen Kisamana. That automatically separated her in terms of power from most of the souls running around within the Soul Society. The simple fact that this man was talking down to her vexed her to no end.

“So... what’s your next attempt to destroy me, hmm girl? I hope that wasn't you best attack.”

Adding fuel to the flames…

“You want to die that badly? Fine little boy, I’d be more than happy to be your genie for today. Your wish is my command.”

Wanting to keep her anger hidden from the man, she tried desperately to prevent it from leaking into her voice. The grin on his face didn’t help any. She was also tired of being referred to as a girl, thus the reason she called him a ‘little boy’. Still, she was much too skilled to let her anger cloud her judgment. She knew full well that the man used sonic waves to distract his opponents, and then he’d probably swoop in and cleave their heads off. No. Kisa wasn’t going to go out like that. Whether she was right about the man’s battle strategy or not, one thing was for sure, she needed to keep her distance. Hopefully the fact that he already deafened the woman would prevent any further distraction, though she may end up suffering from permanent hearing loss or other damages if this battle continues for too long.

Kisamana, once again, used Shunpo to get in close. She the moment she appeared about a foot behind the man, she stuck out her left hand and used a very simple technique, ‘Thrust’. This would forcibly push the man away from her. The moment she did this, she swung her Zanpakuto, which she gripped tightly in her right hand, and sent one more wave of white water rushing towards her the back of the opponent. Beads of sweat were beginning to form. She had used the same, crescent-shaped water blasting attack and it was beginning to get to her. Thankfully, it was one of her lowest attacks and didn’t require as much reiatsu as her stronger ones. Still, she’d have to take her time from here on out.

[kruzy]

"Not this time lady...."
Sake said as she used her attack thrust. Sake used the force if the thrust to help him escape her white water. Being thrusted backwards, turning it into a backwards flip, then using flashstep to appear around ten feet to her right. She was fast, real fast, so she was still able to send her attack by the time Sake used flashstep, so it'd be the best time for an opening of attacks,
The first thing that Sake would use was his zanpaktous special attack known as 'Echo', which when hitting an opponent, it'd make Kisa feel as if everything was shaking, another form of the decibals loud noises, kind of like rattling the brain. But this wasn't all Sake was going to do, next he would use flash step again, backing up even further, to prepare himself to try and kind of like center Kisa into the middle of his attacks, preventing her from getting behind hime again.

"Hadou 101: thunder of sounds" This attack once again, sent out high pitched squeals, and lightning bolts, hopefully disabling any form of white water if she planned on another wave.

After this barrage of attacks it'd be apparent that is Kisa was indeed hit by one of these that she'd have a serious concentration issue. On good cases, maybe she would be injured enough to want to run and heal, but most likely, she'd rather turn to her bankai, or even better yet, to Sake's mind, release her viziard powers, which Sake was more than interested in seeing.

Sweating a lot more now, but still having the energy to continue, Sake started talking again, still... not letting his gaurd down, in case she somehow found a way to escape these attacks...

"Well, I guess compared to you I am a little boy... I suppose thats a compliment. And with that, I suppose a more appropriate nickname for you would be what? An Old Hag?
He laughed a bit, his eyes locked on her facial expression and any kind of eye changes, he was watching her closely now, more than before. Thinking maybe he can get her so upset to cloud her judgment in movements, if she persisted to continue.

After being the first one to resort to using her Shikai, Kisamana was determined not to be the first one to retreat to her Bankai state. This determination withered away why Sake brought a new world upon the woman. This new world Kisa was thrown into was an unpleasant one. Everything was shaking wildly and her focus was pretty much shot to hell. How did this happen? Let’s recap, shall we?

First, Kisa did her little vanishing act and hid behind Sake for all of three seconds before making her presence known. After announcing her presence, she sent a wave of beautiful white water in the hopes of coming across as the cook she never was by slicing him in half like a vegetable. Then, he evading the attack effortlessness and retaliated by slamming his Zanpakuto down on the woman. Kisa raised her own Zanpakuto to intercept her opponent’s. Then… the world began shaking. Hmm… what have we learned from this? Yes, that’s right audience; Sake’s Zanpakuto was much more annoying that Kisamana gave it credit for. Luckily, Kisa came to the same conclusion as well. What did she do about it? Well at that moment, nothing. As I stated before, her focus was shot to hell.

To make matters worse, there was loud screeches and lightning blasting down on her. Since she had already been deafened the loud screeches were more like an annoying buzzing sound in the background, however, the waves of lightning were a very real threat. The world was still shaking, and she knew that, even though it’d be possible, it’d take way too much out of her to try and fend off the waves in her current state. So what was the best solution? Simple, she had to swallow her pride and unleash her Bankai. Reiatsu swirled around her like wind around the eye of a hurricane. Within seconds the area cleared to unveil a changed Kisamana. Her clothes and her Zanpakuto underwent a great change. Her white tank top and baggy black pants were replaced by a leather outfit and her plain black and white (with the exception of the light blue ball on the end of the hilt) Zanpakuto was replaced by one with a whole assortment of different colors. Though her vision was still shaky, she found it a little easier to focus. With an entire list of abilities that were previously been locked away from her now ready for use, she stood in her stance. As the waves of lightning came barreling down on her, she swung at each one, attempting to deflect it. Though she managed to escape most, she took damage. Her jacket had a few tears in it and the exceptionally long leather glove worn on her right arm had a great deal of tears and burn marks, as did her entire right arm. Her torso had a few burn marks from the lightning, but for the most part, she was okay and ready to continue.

Her vision slowly returning to normal, she listened to the man’s words. The petrifying anger that would build up within any and all women who are called ‘An Old Hag’ was easily subdued by relief. Why was she relieved? What an odd question to ask. She was relieved that her initial judgments of the man were completely off. This whole time she had perceived him as someone who was too uptight and stern. She thought he was one of those people who let too much paperwork get to them and no longer found enjoyment in their work. Now, he was… making jokes? Wonderful! A battle was always more fun with witty banter. Without it, a battle was just… a battle, nothing exciting, just two people fighting over whatever patriotic reasons they could find to want to take each other’s lives. However with it, a battle was both exhilarating and fulfilling. Words will never explain to him how much he has pleased her. Luckily, there were two ways to thank him. She could either combat him, joke for joke and Kidô for Kidô, or, she could take his life. Either way was good for her. Decisions were always hard to make when faced with a win-win situation.

Sake was simply holding his ground, staring intently at Kisa as if he were trying to undress her with his eyes. Perverts never could focus on a battle, oh well, maybe with her next attack she’ll draw his attention to where it is most needed. With her right arm, Kisa raised her Zanpakuto. Aiming the tip of her blade towards Sake, a great rush of the same white water blasted out of it, but there was a change. In her last several attacks the water was in the shape of a crescent, this time, the water came rushing out in the shape of a large dragon. This dragon was blasting forth at great speeds, mouth wide open. It was aiming to shred apart the Shinigami that stood in its line of attack

A loud roar was audible to all… except the deafened Kisamana.

[kruzy]

Sake watched as his attacks followed through quite nicely. The echoes seemed to work nicely, and the hadou was working just as well, except for that one little detail.

Bankai.... about time she released it...
He thought to himself, his facial expression was plain, as her spritiual pressure rose greatly. She was pretty damn good at blocking some of the lightning bolts, though some had injured her ever so lightly.

"That a sign of weakness? rushing into your bankai like that?.... Sake spoke right before she attacked.

A dragon of water came rushing towards Sake with tremendous speeds, too fast to use his flash step (surprisingly for him). The only thing he could think of was launch a counter attack to try and determine how powerful her attack really was. A risjy chance, yes, but it'd determine how powerful she had really gotten.

"Howl" Was the last thing Sake said, as the dragons mouth reached his destination. Sake's attack however had it's time to release. A hurricane wind seemed to appear before him, as the attacks collided inches in front of him.

The winds and echoes entered into the dragons mouth, but the attack was too powerful for just a shikai. She was at a captains level after all. The water seemed to keep coming, as Sake's attack battled, it couldn't hold it's own, the spiritual pressure from each attack created a whirlwind, shreading the rest of Sake's jacket, and cutting into his skin. The area grew ever so light, the spirit particals from the attack glistened off the moon, making the battle field seem as if a flash bomb went off.

When the pressure subsided, Sake wasn't seen where he was just attacked. He had used flashstep amongst the bright light to disappear once again. But this time he wasn't behind Kisa, he didn't seem to be near her at all, and he used his best he could to hide his spirit energy from her... for the moment.

If Kisa had looked up however, she would of seen an outline in the moonlight about 75 feet above her...

Sing to the heavens..... BANKAI!! Broke the silence and revealed Sake's hiding place. A huge cloud of spirit engery formed, the pressure was amence, the trees around them swayed and some leant over, the grass changed from overgrown weeds to almost bare. When finishing his transformation, he didn't look too different. His captains jacket seemed to be regenerated, his body fully clothed, not showing the cuts that were still on his skin. His zanpaktou was different however, changing from a dual bladed sword, to an "S" shaped blade, double edged, with one side of the blade blue, one side white.

"Music of heaven" Sake attacked, it seemed like forever changing into his bankai but it was still just a few seconds. The attack engulfed a 100 by 100 foot area, with him still inside it as well, protected by his own blade and its attack. The attack was a much more violent erray of decibals, at a scale of almost 10 to 20 times worse, mixed with an uncountable amount of reaitsu slashes and pounding winds. Sake's face however now wasn't a smile or grin, just a serious face.

Hmmph Was the only thing he said this time.
