Bankai Training
Fri Jan 28, 2011 5:10 pm
Huff, huff, huff... Daigoro flicked his blade in front of his body, trying as best he could to get the technique correct. He was in the middle of his kendo training with his Shikai, the two-foot long Kiba Ookami moving up and down in the base moonlight. The redheaded Shinigami looked around the island, looking out over the purple sky. He sighed softly, wiping his forehead and sitting down for a second.
I'll have to return to Soul Society, soon. It won't do me any good if they get suspicious... He lay down onto his back, and watched the sky above calmly. He'd been in the Kokuryuteshi for some time now, little over 100 years, and he'd been training his body and soul to it's very limits the entire time, preparing himself for that time when he would be needed. He breathed in, and exhaled, before standing up once more.
He took up arms, and began to swipe the blade up and down, making each strike perfect, making every strike count. The way he was fighting, it was so different to what he was used to... But he needed to understand Kiba Ookami more, just so that he could finally reach his soul, and unlock the power that he'd been wanting for a while now.
The power of Bankai...
The blade swiped in the night, up, down, up, down. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the movements increased in speed, pain growing in his arms. About 30 seconds later, he stopped once more, re-sealing and re-sheathing his zanpakuto, wiping his brow carefully and sitting on the ground with a small smile.

“I can't believe how much I fought, over all these years…”
Said a voice from nearby coming from a portal a few yards away. His long green hair flowing in the wind, as he looked towards of the sky. How long has it been since he left the Espada? 500 years? It been a long time than, since he killed his Faccion known as Ryo, the person he called Bird boy. He also remembered how he was back than so full of hate and sadness of knowing everything well end one day..[/size]
A path of destruction in his past wake. The clouds parted, and the coolness of the moon brought the question - “Is this what you were born to do?” He let that float around his head for a bit, shaking his head as a bad thought
“Shouldn’t be thinking like that, not anymore.”
This creature was known as Zefonse Kaizme, the Iron Cross Commander he was taking a break today, going to try relax in some ways, mostly try this thing known as drawing. Some of his teammates said drawing is a good way to show emotion. Funny isn’t it? An Arrancar that can feel like any other being?
Something has changed beneath the steel heart. This arrancar can feel, but how some may wonder, his past full of death, war, countless battle, he faced them all head on destroying them all, for fear of his own life, becoming insane with destroying everything in order to save it. This primal fear he had grew and he proved his power, he wanted more, he wanted the strongest followers. But then one day that all changed when he met soul reapers his mortal and timeless foes. He killed many of them, but a few showed him kindness,
this kindness slowly changed him, seeing more to life then destroying. He dreamed of a new ideal a new path in life. Peace. A strong word indeed, few can follow it. That was his desire, he wanted the war of all races to end and let there be peace in the world. After he left the Espada he met a man known as Kin, who also wanted peace. Kin was stronger than him in everyway, but Kin also wanted strong allies on his side, and spared Zefonse from death, giving him a place among the group known as Kokuryuteish.
Zefonse turned towards.Daigoro, Zefonse had gotten lost in thought, and didn’t noticed him, looks like he been training. He walk towards Daigoro with an friendly smile, basically trying to do a sneak appearance on Daigoro.
Zefonse had his spiritual pressure hidden as he sneak towards Daigoro like a shadow, he loomed over Daigoro and simple said with a friendly voice almost singing.
“~Good Afternoon~”

Eyes closed, silence abound. That's all that was happening in Dai's head. He hadn't picked anything up, and when the voice came out from behind him, his first reaction was to draw the blade from it's sheath, and go for the newcomer's throat. A half-second later, he recognized Zefonse, and smiled softly, placing Kiba Ookami back into it's scabbard. He stood up tall, bowing slightly to his superior officer.
"Good afternoon, sir." He smiled sheepishly, slightly embarrassed at having been caught resting during a training session for something as important as Bankai. He sighed softly, and jumped back slightly, increasing the distance between them - he could still feel the power emanating from the man, it was putting some strain on his barrier... He groaned slightly.
"I was just doing some training, sir." He nodded, and looked up into the sky with another sigh. Bankai... why was it so difficult to gain? Was it just because of the prestige behind it? He really thought it unnecessary, but if he wanted to be recognized as a powerful member of the Kokuryuteshi... He needed this.
The Gotei 13 didn't know his secret, and if he got bankai, that would be the end of his Soul Society life, and he would move completely to this island. Something that he wanted to do - otherwise his guilt at being a member of more than one group would kill him sooner than later...

“~No need for formality’s~”
Zefonse said trying to have a nice and peaceful ring to it. But ended up sounding like he was talking fast and was slurring the words. He noticed Daigoro backing away, remembering the barrier around Daigoro , Zefonse lowered his spiritually power so it wont do any harm to it , his smile turned backing into a natural showing what seemed no emotion into it,
As Zefonse green eyes looked over the area, this man been training hard for something, for most soul reapers that would be shikai, but knowing that this man already has shikai, so he must have been training for Bankai most likely. Zefonse felt Dai’s desire for power. His desire to be recognized? Was he like him in the fast just without the hatred?
“If you wish to gain more power, look for help in friends, without good friends, no single person can reach the stars.
Zefonse said this with a deep thought to it, strangle drawing of the idea, he faced people in bankai before, they had something about them, A will, a passion. He was thinking about how his power worked they where sealed into his two blades and yet only needed one of them to gain his hollow power’s. But why was a release command need? Because if they don’t say it they be stuck with there powers on forever till they die. But Zefonse took the soul reaper blade worked differently since it’s a link between the user and its sword spirit. A phase came out of zefonse mouth
“Break it down, The impossible unity, The two of you make three. Make sure like that dichotomy was meant to exist.
Zefonse was talking about Bankai and his thoughts on it, and when he realized he said that he quick looked towards the sky, it was nice and peaceful. His Green eyes looking at the stars, how beautiful, Zefonse wasn’t sure how to feel, he felt out of place, but he welcome that feeling, it meant one thing, he existed and was alive, and above all else he wasn’t like before

"No need for formalities. Dai laughed. He liked Zefonse - the man really tried when it came to his emotions, and he appreciated that.
"Fine, I won't be so formal with you, si-- Zefonse." He listened more to him, and blinked a couple of times at his explanation of Bankai, his opinion being slightly swayed by this idealism. He looked down at the blade and blinked.
"Two becomes three... Two... becomes... three?" He looked slightly confused at this man's cryptic message. His eyes looked over the sword, and flicked it down by his side once again, in a way that would normally release it.
"Ookami..." He looked up at Zefonse and nodded, understanding. He'd always heard that there was something else within a bankai, and all of his training up until this point may finally be what he needed.
I think I understand, Ookami.
I think you do, too... Because I do not govern your bankai.
Wh-what? The redhead was now surprised beyond belief. There was... another spirit? What?
Explain?
No. Discover. Dai expected that. He looked up at Zefonse, his conversation over, and smiled.
"I may need some help for this... I've been told you learn best in battle, so..." He drew his blade into the air, and tilted his head to the side.
"I'd appreciate it if... you'd help. Please." This power... it may be the one thing that would help him defend those he cared about.

Zefonse closed his eyes, in thought quickly and with a true passion in his voice. The emotion true, this feeling around him, peacefulness. This is who he was and shall always try to be. Zefonse, not a mindless killer.
“One does learn best in battle.”
Blades at his sides, a fate unlike any other an Arrancar helping someone learn bankai, the final stage in power for a soul reaper. That power was rare but in Dai’s eye he saw it, the spark the will to push forward,. Zefonse like that about him he always had great will power and moral, a very great leader as well. He just need an push. Zefonse gained a nice smile, as he drew his blades one in each hand. Crossing them to form an X then moving his left blade forward so that way the blade is point upwards as his right blade is flipped so where the blunt side of the blade towards the ground and the blade in the air, from the side of this it looked like an “T”
Zefonse slowed his breath down, his eyes focuses to look into Dai’s. Zefonse leaned forward, his legs bent slightly as he took a small step forward towards Dai. Just as it seems he was going for an attack, he never moved his blades, he was waiting for Dai to make the first move.
As the air clears but leaves a thick sense of tension between the two. How long till this soul reaper learns bankai? Who knows, but it seems the soul reaper mind was set, and that made Zefonse willing to help. Now how shall this training go?

The Arrancar stepped forwards. Daigoro blinked, and stepped back slightly, eyes narrowing slightly. Why was he losing resolve? He needed to take the initiative - the redheaded Shinigami was tentative, that was for sure. Had he made a rash decision? Had he made a stupid mistake, just for wanting power? No... no he hadn't.
The redhead looked at the ground, and began to shake slightly. He looked up at Zefonse, a new resolve burning in his eyes. He took a pose, and suddenly flash-stepped in a direct attack for the man with the crossed swords. Even if his direct attack failed, he'd be able to work out some strategy with this guy.
His blades clashed on the crossed swords, and Daigoro jumped back, sliding across the ground. Failed... Ah, well. Time to try again. He grinned, and pushed off the ground, moving to the man's side. Pity he had no Kidou to use, but he'd have to sit with his own physical abilities...
"Think fast!"

Something has changed beneath the steel, this arrancar can feel. His blades shook as his blades where hit by Dai’s blade. It was there for a spilt second, the will to surpass ones own limits it seemed. As Dai’ s cam in from the side.
Zefonse eyes didn’t blink, nor move, but his body quickly went into another defense he was going to use his right sword to block Dai attack, and use his left to do an slicing motion using the blunt side of the blade so it would at most if it hits burse which should heal rather easily. There was something different as well, in the style of Zefonse movement’s, more graceful rather than pure force.
Zefonse was going to push this man to his limits if need be, If Dai looked into Zefonse blades to feel his “passion” that is how warriors fight, they try to understand each other thru skill. Pushing themselves beyond the limits of there past. Shattering that past like it was nothing, till what stands before each other was someone different, but Zefonse was still learning feelings

"Yes. Let's." Daigoro shouted out, and started to run towards Zefonse. He neared the man, pulled back his zanpakuto to strike, and suddenly flash-stepped behind him, pulling out his elbow and trying to force it into his back. As soon as he had done that, he turned on his feet, and tried to sweep him off his feet.
He then jumped back, and flipped onto one hand, staring at the man carefully. His eyes narrowed once more, and he suddenly moved forwards to attack once again, only being met by blades. He grimaced, and jumped back. He wasn't getting through! He knew that Zefonse was better than him, and that was a pressing fact... But still! He should at least be able to hit the guy once!
He stood up straight, watching for any openings. Seeing none, he just decided to try again.
"Hyaaaah!" A quick-step, and a flash-step. He stopped next to the man, and threw out an arm in a wild attack... Could he do it? He couldn't feel anything... Because the Arrancar wasn't there! Dai fell forwards, and onto his knees. His eyes narrowed, and he looked up at Zefonse.
"I... I can't..." He was powerless to do anything.
Daigoro. Ookami.
Daigoro. Another voice.
Daigoro. Why do you seek power?
To protect those who cannot protect themselves.
Do you seek all-encompassing strength?
No. Just power to protect.
Two becomes three... Remember that.
Who... who are you? Silence. Daigoro looked up. He knew what to do. He stepped up, and went on another assault. He had to work it out!

The force of the sudden elbow hitting his back, was good and decent, But zefonse didn’t move form his spot. The clash of blades, from blocking dai attack, showed the difference in there fighting skill so far. Zefonse was more skilled in one.
Zefonse had hardly any openings for any attacks, it seemed that elbow hit was the only thing that hit. And with Dai been training for longer period, he seemed to reach his limits already. Zefonse looked at Dai , As Dai went in for an attack, he disappeared his speed was far to great.
Zefonse looked at Dai who was on his knees, strange did he give up? No there was something, he must be talking to his sword sprit. Then dai gotten up, and looked more than ready. Zefonse eyes watched as he came. Readying his blades again, for an counter, using the blunt side of his blade. He was going to try to counter Dai next sword attack, by hitting him in any opening possible, but he knew it might not work.
Anything, can happen, he heard tales of people gaining bankai in 3 days, or a few years, Bankai the purest form of a soul reaper soul, it seemed most blades power are based on there personality. Dai liked to protect others. A good man nonetheless, so can he reach bankai?
“Show me that soul of yours!”
