This battle will be taking place in a forestland. There is a lake in the center, moutains in the range and plenty of wide open spaces and trees for as far as the eye can see. For all intents and purposes, this a planet entirely untouched by man and this scenery expands throughout the entire globe. Therefore, these opponents have nothing but clear skies and fresh air to battle in. So take a sniff of nature and begin the brawl!

Calmness. That was the best way to describe this battlefield. Despite it hosting quite the violent event, the air in the forest was quite serene and placid. Birds chirped in the distance while the alluring light of the rising sun arose in the distance. Golden hues, purple trails and blue skies filled the heavens as a pearl mist overtook the woodlands. One could almost call this a cool, crisp and tranquil spring morning.

So, it was quite the shame that it would surely be torn to sunder with the opponents which were going to assemble here on this grand and festive day. From across the known realms of existence, countless invitation were sent to the strongest and bravest fighters to take part in the Platinum Heart Tournament. If one had the desire to challenge themselves, then they would be welcomed to take part in this gathering of fighters. Hence, it is no wonder that a Kenpachi would answer this call and take up the mantle to prove her worth for the Soul Society's sake.

Ergo, Ibiki Suika once again found herself in the middle of an otherworldly event. However, unlike others, this one was going to be less about saving the world and more about finding herself again. Stress, so much stress had blinded the woman's mind that she started to lose touch with the carefree nature of herself. Behind every cataclysmic disaster that happened one after another in the Soul Society, coupled together with bringing forth radical change into the Thirteen Court Squads, there was a great need to find an escape from it all and just let herself go.

Therefore, The Menacing Devil Girl found herself walking towards the peak of a mountain none too far from where the Platinum Heart teleported her to. This air, this atmosphere, it was the perfect place for her to meditate and empower herself to deal with the arduous, yet thrilling task which would present itself to her today. So, as her ginger eyes pierced the landscape and stared into the waking forest, she'd let this peaceful view sink into her spirit and begin the process of mending these barren and tattered wounds to her soul.

Breathing in and out, The Lone Oni Shinigami would start easing her nerves and flowing new life and power into her body from this realm. It was hard to place her finger on, but there was something in the environment around The Kenpachi that allowed her to ascend to this state of higher spiritual being. Maybe it was the fact she was isolated and away from the climate which caused her immense stress, or perhaps it had been because this dimension truly was affecting her; but she felt -- at ease.

Yes, there were still troubles that worried her, but they were thoughts which were being allowed to flow and exist as if they were passing birds in the sky letting their cries into the unknown be heard. There was no sense in allowing herself to be tethering to these worries any longer. She needed to be loose, free and unrestrained like a carefree child for this. Hiding herself in booze would not coup with this. No. This was something that needed to be found on her own.

So, as she sat Indian style upon this cliff side, a plum aura that was intermixed with shades of honey materialized around her body like a gentle flame. This soothing energy became still, but within its warm glow possessed a sense of harmony and ease. It is in these moments of introspection that The Menacing Devil Girl recalled one of her reaitsu's own special priorities: the ability to induce positive thought within spirits. It was a feat that she considered to be one of the reasons why the division eleven company was one of the strongest motivated squads in the Seireitei at this point.

Yet, due to her minds eye wandering far away from itself, this sedative effect wandered astray from its master and it failed to assist in her mental recovery.So, it was in these spare moments of meditation that she found her will once more and it was an amazing thing. A sense of control returned to her and a belief that she could raise above these sorrows returned. Therefore, nothing but a gentle smile could be seen across her lips as she slowly started to stand once more.

With the pieces of her internal self starting to find themselves whole again, the power of The Menacing Devil started to swell and a strong sense of spiritual pressure radiated from the Oni Girl. However, it didn't constrict and restrict the area as most other types of tremendous energies would. It was akin to a sense of release and it breathed new life into the area. Plants had a stronger shine to them, the winds became oh-so calm and the nature life all around this arena became enchanted with her aura's loving glow and grasp.

This was the positive mind of Ibiki Suika surfacing once more and all that was left to do was pit it against whomever she would find herself against. So, her eyes were set to the top of the sky as a neon white holographic sign emerged. After a few moments, a ticker started echoing in the area and the name of her combatants was shouted and displayed:

"The match of Ibiki Suika VS Cero Tecla has begun!"

And in those booming words from a male announcer, the her tournament match was set to begin. So, a sense of anticipation crept into her chest, but it was kept in check and used as fuel to further her ambition of winning this. It was time to let go of these feelings of stress and let it all out on her opponent. A battle made through her fist is what she craved and she hoped that her opponent could bare to satisfy this strain for a bit.

"Show yourself, Mr.Cero. I'm ready to begin our match made in heaven."

Cero Telca
The Beast of Sound

Nature, and this battlefield, made Cero recall many things, but the thing that stuck the most was a memory of awakening in the Karakura forest, with just enough memories in his empty head to help him survive attacks from everything, hollows, to denizens of the woods. Those days were very different from then, it reminded him of a time that he didn't care about those or what was around him, he was just trying to figure out things for himself. Now that his head was on straight though, he has completely flipped that state of mind as he pursued peace in the world through diplomacy. With this tournament, Cero saw it not only for what it was, but as an chance to improve the relations of all realms. Being the winner of this would bring him closer and closer to that goal. Given that he didn't need to kill his opponents to claim victory, he didn't have that holding him back. He also knew that everyone in this was aiming for the prize in the end, just like him, there was no convincing here. No matter what, the result is most likely requiring Cero to defeat his opponent in combat.

As they had arrived in this world that would serve as their battleground, Cero admired the view as he also scanned it for what might be useful, along with what might be harmful or put him at a disadvantage. He wasn't able to know everything that his opponent might be capable of, so he would need to be observant if he planned on using tactics to out move his opponent. He was likely, the only one, if not part of a small group of people capable of making copies of themselves that can function together in coordination with the creator. This was what he planned to use to his advantage as a opening strategy, if he required, to switch it up, he very much could. Likely at that point though, he would have to conserve energy and fly solo through the fight. He knew that it was most likely a bad idea to bring the battlefield out to the open lake area, so he decided to wander up a mountain and within the trees of the forest land. "Such a peaceful place... Cero would say before he was stopped.

Eventually, a voice would be heard throughout the land of nature, it appeared to be extremely similar to that of an announcer;s own voice. It was without a doubt the signal that the match was indeed starting, both competitors could start making their opening moves. Cero felt the waves of feelings that were made for pressure and survival wash over him in instants. With the clicking of his mouth, the sound produced by it was enhanced by his energy and given a thinking form, along with physical. The creations that sprung to life were called the echos, while the can act on their own, everything that they do is based from Cero, and anything that they learn can be learned by the information being passed on through a link. They all set off in their own direction in pursuit of the enemy that they were meant to seek out, in total, there were eight of them, one for each direction. He doubted that his opponent was up ahead of him on the mountain, but it was always better to be more safe than sorry. As he continued his own path, he tried his best attempts in masking his own energy in that of the echos, making them stick out, while he was masked.

It should take long for one of them to encounter Ibuki, or at least sense her, the one that might locate her and be able to approach would draw out it's replicated Zanpakutō.

"I..Shall Be....Your...Opponent..." He stated with echos trailing all between the words that were stated to Ibuki. All the while, the other echos would begin converging on the location, however since Cero was trying to conserve his energy they could travel beyond their natural speed. With all intentions this approach that Cero had taken, he did intend any damage to be done, more so these moves that he was trying to preform were intended to expose and gather information about his enemy, almost anything could be useful for future reference, when the real fight would start. For now, Ibuki, would have to settle with a sound clone of the original, Cero Telca.

There was a slight chuckle that escaped the lips of Ibiki when her opponent began scattering various replicas of himself across the battlefield. The Menacing Devil Girl couldn't help but believe that she had the edge on her foe if they were resorting to such tactics right off the gate. After all, how many clones did it take to take down one little oni girl? Oh well. All Ibiki needed to do was make sure she was on top of her sensory abilities in order to keep track of these pesky little replicas.

So, it is with a deep sigh that The Devil Girl achieved an internal focus and began feeling out the environment around her. Thanks to the amount of spiritual particles that were scattered in the area thanks to her little meditative session, Ibiki could latch on to them and achieve an otherworldly sense of perception. Through this means would she then be able to monitor each of the clones and begin deciphering where the real one would originate from.

"Hide and seek? Fun. I used to be the top player of that little game back in my days in the Rukongai districts."

There was a sense of amusement and teasing nature felt in the voice of Ibiki as she let out a playful giggle after speaking. With one eye open, The Menacing Devil Girl understood where her foe was located and could simply lock-on to his energy frequency at this point. Dating back to the scattering of her spiritual energy across the field, The Captain believed she had perceived the energy frequency of Cero Telca because each of his clones had a similar wavelength, but his stood out as the one being repressed.

Henceforth, she'd place her bets on latching on to this energy signature and flash stepping directly in front of the true Cero. With her right fist already cocked, The Oni Girl moved at break-neck speeds that may very well catch The Ziamichi Quincy off guard. For in the time it took to blink, she'd unleash a flurry of punches to each of his jaws. Then, in another blink, another combo of strikes straight to his chest and abdomen. Followed by that, a swift roundhouse kick to the face would conclude things and she'd leap backwards to cover ground.

Altogether, each of these strikes were capable of clearing out large chunks of the earth, so it goes without saying that The Beast of Sound would have his durability "soundly" tested. For the injuries that he could face were great enough to crack bones, rupture organs and lower his overall health and speed due to the strain placed on his body. Not only that, but with her spiritual energy being active, each of these strikes were also capable of penetrating his spirit and damaging the flow of inner energy within Cero's body. This, in turn, would make it more difficult to summon attacks as it would be similar to taking physical damage, but more toward his supernatural capacities.

So, with that said, The Menacing Devil Girl would then follow this all up with aiming to capture Cero within a series of chains associated with her Zanpukto. Ergo, from every side he'd be ensnared by the grip of hundreds of chains yearning to capture his limbs, neck, torso, and waist within its grasp. Then, if her prey was snatched up, Ibiki planned to increase the grip to the point of constricting his body and forcing a a tremendous amount of pressure on it. Combined with the fact it was feeding off of Ibiki's energy, and the matter of its durability being on par with The Oni GIrl's own body due to it being a reflection of her spirit, this would be quite the tricky situation for him to get out of if he did fall for such a tactic.

All the while, The Oni Captain would also target his other replicas and intend to dispose of them post-haste. Due to the fact that her Zanpukto could produce lengthy extensions of its chains for large distances, it wasn't out of the picture that she could pin-point each of the clones location and then send these speared bonds of iron towards their location. Acting like daggers, dozens of these projectiles sought to stab through every orafice of the clones body in order to render them neutralized and placed out of the fight.

Thus, if Ibiki had her way, she wasn't going to waste time fighting against shadows of her opponent. That isn't what she came to this tournament to do. Which is why she would then focus in on Cero once more and begin increasing the grip her chains had if he were caught in their grasp. The strain, at this point, would be more than enough to pop his bones like eggshells and potentially force him to give up the brawl; lest he desire to be a popped cork.

In that matter would she then begin following up with another bundle of punches directed at his wrist, mid arm, shoulders, jaws, chin, gut and lungs in order to put The Beast of Sound under further pressure. Altogether, he'd have the berserk force of a Menacing Devil clawing down at his body in order to bring him crumbling to ashes. Each strike was akin to taking explosive blast capable of taking out many meters of earth away from the environment and the damage was all solely focused on the boys body.

If he was strong enough to take the title of beast, then he'd better have the strength to back that claim up! He was now dealing with The Oni Girl and she wanted to see what this fabled beast was capable. So, this little devil girl was going to test him and put him through the ringer. If he failed this? Then he just wasn't wroth her time to begin with.

"Now, are you ready to give up, or are you ready for another round, my beloved opponent?"

[adm]In order to speed things along in the event, I'm sending out a one week warning for Zero. If he does not post within that time, then Ibiki will be considered to win by default and move on to the next round. [/adm]

Sat Jul 11, 2015 10:26 pm

[adm]Alright, since we haven't heard from Zero, I'm going to go ahead and declare Ibiki the winner of this match by default. The reason for this is because he has had since the 29th to post and we are trying to progress things faster with the enter as we move towards the second phase. So, I'm sorry, but this is done.[/adm]
