Angels and Demons [PRIVATE]

It was a cool day outside the walls of Karakura, Ginryu had been sent to meet with his family ever since his joining of the Vandenreich he had never actually got round to visiting them. For one such as the anti-social Quincy it was not uncommon for people to be pushed away, even his own family. The teenager had spent the morning catching up with his family - a thing that he viewed as a boring and pointless endeavor - although despite this the boy could do nothing about it and so he endured their chat, that boring time spent listening to what had changed, absolutely nothing but a few things being changed around like what they planned to do, and the like. All was boring and pointless to him.

So he finally escaped their pointless chit-chat and was able to leave, he had lied about when he had to leave and instead said he had to leave an hour earlier than he had too. They insisted seeing him off although he escaped their company with a simple excuse. He traveled to the entrance of the booming metropolis which was also the exit to the forests of Karakura. Upon escaping into the peaceful tranquility of nature everything might have well slowed down and became peaceful.

He walked casually outside the gates after getting approval to leave and began to make his way for a walk. He was more than capable of dealing with the mild amount of hollows that inhabited these woods, however that is because the hollows were weak and preyed on the weak, a Quincy was no weak and could easily kill these pests. So with that the Quincy strode down the path that was reasonably well kept although the pace was reasonable the boy walked with a straight and controlled posture, as if at any point he could easily get ready to deal with a foe.

Today would be interesting, whether or not the Soldat knew it or not.

Everything seemed uneventful - although everything was in fact not uneventful for long, in fact it was fucking terrible for the Quincy - here he is walking down the path when he catches a faint reiatsu with his fine turned ability to sense reiatsu. With this little bit of reaction time he was able to use Hirenkyaku to avoid the main damage, in the process he only lost the white cloak that he wore over the white uniform of the Vandenreich. This left him in a coat with plain white pants and shoes, his coat bore a symbol on it which belonged to the Vandenreich in the form of a badge.

It was at this point the clearly madman began to yell in a sadistic and psychotic way to the young man clad in white before he told him it was time to die. Well Gin did not intend to die just yet, the boy still intended to live and the man's constant warnings to when he was going to strike left the Quincy with the opportunity to move, upon the movement which would lead to his opponent coming towards him Gin would use Hirenkyaku once more to surf the flow of reishi and in doing so he would swap spots with his opponent who intended to bisect him with the powerful sword that he wielded. The tree being completely severed instantly had him alert, the man really wanted to kill him and the boy sighed at this new development. People these days, couldn't even walk without someone trying to stab or kill you.

The Soldat stood impassively as he observed the man before him grin at him, it wasn't the grin of menace or pleasure. No it was the grin of someone who had knocked more than a few screws loose. His opponent once more attempted to attack him, this time with a dagger. This was enough, the Soldat decided he should fight back, to hell with Ghislain's peaceful ways not even he could speak sense into this psycho. "Scatter." he said under his breath and as his opponent rushed towards him he would see five daggers manifest and shoot from the necklace around the Quincy's neck. These daggers would then move to attack and force Vanyel to move or defend against the five daggers or risk being wounded.

Using this as a distraction the Quincy used his high-speed movement once more and disappeared into the shrubs to coordinate his daggers which would circle and strike Vanyel like birds did their prey. Of course their tier difference would make it easy for him to block them and eventually he would be able to deflect them all to which he responded with the use of chi. Using his daggers that lay around the enemy he was facing made him quickly bring three to create a triangle and in doing so he materialised a reishi barrier between the three points which shattered upon contact with the spell and exploded which sent the Quincy a good few metres back into a nearby tree.

He got up quickly, the prick began to mock him. How dare this man insult the Quincy, he would bleed by the time this match was over or he would be in terrible shape but he couldn't think about that at the moment, he needed concentration dammit. He yet again remained impassive and waited for his opponent to make the first move although this time he let his daggers float around him threateningly like bees ready to defend their monarch.

Tension. It was all that radiated from the young man's being as he witnessed the being who he assumed was a chi wielding human but really it was impossible to tell, I mean seriously Gin had never witnessed nor had he heard of energy that was being used against him by this foe. He quickly regained his composure and sense though, although in such a life or death situation he didn't really let it drop for a second anyway. The quincy had been brought the the point when he really began to sweat, although he was not yet fearing this man he was concerned for the clear difference in power between them.

Defiant to this being he stood straight and glared although barely noticed the man had come at him with a silent attack, the boy was forced to move although it was too slow and he felt his cheek get cut. The warm trickle of blood dripped down his cheek although he didn't have time to react and counter his following assault. The Vandenreich Soldat handled it well, although he grasped at his chest after being violently thrown into a nearby tree.

The sudden impact made him barely register that his opponent was yelling at him madly, he grasped his chest and could barely breathe since he lost all the wind in his lungs with his opponent's attack at his chest. He also nursed a few broken ribs and had a lot of bruises on his stomach. With his quick analysis complete Gin initiated Ransōtengai and his body would glow a light blue as he suddenly began to manipulate himself like a puppet. He was unable to fight effectively with his injuries so he decided to simply bypass the handicap.

The attack had knocked his daggers away, he noticed they surrounded his foe in an almost perfect pentagram. He calculated his next move with the use of his skilled and tactical mind before he arranged the daggers in the correct formation to use one of his finest techniques while his opponent underwent the strange transformation. Just before his opponent's transformation finished he would remove a strange silver canister from his coat pocket and he dropped its contents onto the closest dagger. The result would be beautiful.

Firstly his opponent who would now be in this new form would find themselves constricted and held in place by incredibly dense and strong reishi bonds. The second stage that happened would be the devastating explosion that came afterwards. Vaynel would find himself enveloped in the explosion before feeling the burning and tearing of the power of Sprenger. Of course with the tier difference his opponent would survive, that the Quincy knew although he wanted to merely wound and end the battle. Not kill his opponent.

Curiously he waited a few metres from the explosion and waited to see the results. He brought the daggers back to their positions at his side and waited for the smoke to clear. Using his sensory skills he looked for his opponent, he waited patiently and wondered if he actually won.

Everything went well for the Quincy, he stood impassive as he watched the man break free his bonds, he was quite literally a second too late though as he became enveloped in the explosion to when he did nothing but scream in agony and anger. The boy turned away as if to leave when he caught his scent, less of a scent but more of his spiritual marker. Without hesitation he grabbed used the daggers which were quickly arranged into a circle around him, the damn human just wouldn't be defeated - it was frustrating and annoying for the Quincy - even by Gin's strongest attack, the famed Sprenger all it did was give him a few scratches and burns here and there.

Using the circle formation the soldat quickly used them to make a barrier of reishi which of course was broken although the small interference in the blade's advance and the sudden block gave him the chance to use his Ransotengai to pull him back and avoid the crazed madman. He was screaming now, roaring in a way that made him no longer appear human but an animal. Gin no longer operated normally, he now felt like his life was threatened.

Fear. A word that one such as he feels very little, he never dropped the calm and collected mindset but now he fought with a new resolve and readiness to kill his opponent. He was like a wild animal that had just been cornered by his foe. So when he began to use his strongest attack or what appeared to quincy prodigy to be a very powerful attack he instantly began to feel the idea of retreat in his mind, nearby he used the shadows that were cast by a nearby tree to open a Shadow pathway which the Quincy were known to use.

He quickly made a rush for it with Hirenkyaku. Yet just as his opponent had felt time seem to slow down the same happened to the boy when he tried to get to the portal, he had never felt so much pain and damage be inflicted to him and his pain threshold wouldn't handle it he was struck by the lightning as he moved towards the way to freedom. He was struck and landed a few metres from the gateway, he was heavily damaged and if it wasn't for Ransotengai he would be unable to move, he looked at the human. Both injured and weak, both tired and the fight would be hard to continue. He used the man's tiredness against him and literally threw his body with the reishi strings towards the shadow and would disappear into it.

He left the man alone, he was battered and would appear nearby where he would drag himself back to the safety of Karakura. He couldn't fight the man any longer even if he wanted to he wouldn't be able to. Judging by his opponent, neither of them could continue.
