Crying Shadows (private)

He ran over his memories trying to remember something, he couldn't he didn't know what it was or why he needed it exactly but he knew somewhere deep down he would enjoy remembering it. His eyes opened his hair a mess like usual his left eye still in pain he let out labored gasp. A nightmare, no, a vision, still not, but what, the face of a man, crimson hair. He sighed, slipped out of a makeshift bed and strolled over to a nail on the wall where he clothes hung. "Another day, another chance to live to the fullest i guess..." He slipped into a black t-shirt that was just a little to small for him and was tight against his chest, showing how scrawny he was, his pants were worn and had holes in the knees, and the soles of his shoes were coming off.

As he walked through the outskirts of town he stopped walking and looked up at the sky, almost as if he had done this before on an occasion. "What the heck is going to happen today?" He looked back down and continued to walk, a metal sword strapped across his back, he looked off into the distance towards a tree. He walked over to it and slumped down turning to look back off into the sky. His blue eyes sparkled for just a moment before he spit at the ground in disgust.

The man let his body fall to the left so his head was against the ground, he rolled away from the tree slowly, and stopped when his head was facing the other way, still laying on the ground. His blue eyes reflected the image of the man in front of him, "Crimson hair...." He let the words drift from his mouth slowly, "I'm not that strong but I do pack a punch in my own way." The male slowly stood up patting the dirt off of himself. He stared at the male in front of him, he had heard of arrancar, he was never afraid of them, he had never actually seen them, all he knew was they were powerful but other then that he didn't see them as any different.

"My name, is Eizo Dark, I would like to call myself the Shadow of Death. If i may ask who you are." Suddenly appearing behind the man, about 5 feet away, leaving a trail of dust from were he had been standing to were he was now, a loud crack heard from his soles hitting the ground hard. A smile erupted on his face almost making him seem chaotic and insane. "How wonderful it would be to play with someone like you for the day...."

He quickly reacted, side stepping just enough that an arc of electricity passed between him and it as it passed by. He quickly turned to see where the man was in the sky, just as a red light hit him across the face, his legs were already moving to jump back when he had been hit in the face. He flew end over end as he slammed into the tree, de rooting it and sending it and himself flying back. He felt thorns digging into his arms and noticed that he had stopped moving backwards. He was suspended off of the ground vines dug deep into the ground. He looked up at the male, a mask covering his smile

When the vines let him down and he looked up a triumphant smile appeared across the now masked man, his eyes a greenish gold. He unsheathed his sword and spun it what seemed two times but was actually twenty. He then put his left foot behind him looked down, and ran, starting to run on air he appeared behind the man in less then a second. "It rivals your sonido doesn't it, oh and by the way, that fucking hurt Kyle." With lightning fast movements he slashed with his right hand which was wrapped in razor sharp thorns and with the sword in his left, slashing in an X and V pattern. Hoping he would cut the man, knowing of the arrancars iron skin ability.

Turning to face the man at his new position he rotated to the right and charged. Ducking as he charged he received the punch in his shoulder, hearing a slight crack and almost weightless he coughed as he felt the entire force go through his body and out the other end, then he felt himself flying end over end, reaching out with his hands and trying to concentrate to slow himself by sliding along some kind of surface.

Standing again looking at his left shoulder he coughed out blood. "FUCK! GOD THIS FUCKING HURTS DAMNIT!" Grabbing his arm and almost rolling in pain he kept yelling, "FUCKER!". He stood up and checked his left shoulder out, a nice red spot forming under it, he cut the skin, blood pouring out from a blood blister.

His eyes changed from a green to a bright blue cyan color, the thorns wrapped around his left arm slowly drifted off and wrapped around his face, "MEET THE SHADOW OF DEATH, YOU LITTLE BITCH!!!" His body and the thorns exploded into colors, each of which liquefied and fell to the earth, wrapping around each other and becoming a black puddle, as Eizo Dark lifted himself out of the puddle, his eyes a bright cyan color, his left arm went completely numb. He looked up at the man and yawned, he wouldn't go after the man, the forest around Eizo grew denser and denser, more and more trees sprouting out of the ground and going to maturity as Eizo looked around he smiled, the area growing dark, his cyan eyes glowing in the dark perfectly like a spotlight.

"If you want the fight to continue, you will come to me Kyle, in my territory, you might enjoy it more then the sky."

His smile shattered as if it were glass as kyle appeared behind him, sensing the difference in location he instantly dropped as a shadow into the ground beneath him, moving through the roots of the forest as a tree sprouted were he had been, a ping heard as a tree close to the location started to ripple as Eizo walked out.

His voice echoed through the forest, "You are in my domain sir, i am the shadows, i am the trees, i am the ground. You will not have a short battle here you will lose quickly, or bore and leave.
