|||Retsu|||Unohana|||
Although it would perturb many as to how things had escalated to this dangerous point, Unohana had long since discarded her worry. No matter who this individual was standing before her - inherently, in the back of her mind, she could still sense that somewhere deep within, her daughter lay dormant. Of course, if it meant having to duel her to brink of death, then little would be her objection. Perhaps, to a certain degree, Unohana had already envisioned this day would come, a time where she would have to teach Neviah the most pivotal step in life; learning the way of battle.
However, even with the revelation of this nature that Unohana had kept so well hidden, Neviah only seemed eager, excited to venture into whatever Unohana had in store for her. Even so, Unohana was already at a disadvantage before this battle had even commenced. The Art of war came naturally to her, killing someone was as easy as breathing when her skills were concerned, however.... Neviah was someone Unohana could not bring herself to kill.
She would not let her bloodthirst cloud her judgement, even at the expense of losing her own life. Needless to say, even with that singular advantage, Unohana still had all the better chances to win this duel. She was a veteran fighter, a woman who possessed the knowledge of all swordsmanship schools, as well as every sword. She was a swordsman at her heart, there is no doubt that will be her form of combat used in this battle. Neviah, most likely aware that she mustn't fight Unohana at her own game, decided to assume a side combat stance, with one hand at her waist, the other at her front. Generally assuming, the way her body was motioned indicated that she wanted Unohana to execute the first move.
Allowing your opponent to take the initiative equates to raising their percentage of victory during battle - however, Unohana suspected there was more to Neviah than she let on. And should she suffer a grave wound, her peerless skill with healing Kidō would prolong her life no matter how far she was pushed to the edge of death's embrace. Taking a deep breath, Unohana pulled her Zanpakutō - Minazuki - from its rope strap, unsheathing the unusually long yet slender Katana from its slumber, revealing the blade that wished to taste blood, in spite of the fact that Minazuki nursed the wounds of its allies. Even though her Zanpakutō was a Katana, with it's longer than typical size, one would most likely make the common mistake of classifying it as a Nodachi. In any event, it was time to initiate the battle. There was no need for filler. The size of a weapon, the potential scope of the adversary's abilities, and ideals... of all that men fight for and take care to evaluate, not one of them mattered here.
This was to be a dance of death, a play of the finest onslaught, and so, it's only proper that the fair mother of this riveting tale give this banquet a proper opening! Like a bolt of white lightning, Unohana flashed towards Neviah, displaying her skill with the art of flash step. In no way did she reach the level of the ubiquitous---recent addition to the Gotei 13---Yoruichi Shihouin. Even so, her speed was not to be underestimated. Closing the distance between them in one thousandth of a second, Unohana, with her sword raised high as though to touch the heavens themselves, executes a ferocious overhead downward strike.
As her sword races downwards, the sheer power of her fierce slash alone is enough to split the air. And yet, even for all the power placed behind it, Unohana was savvy enough to consider that her attack would miss. Was that out of her hesitation to kill Neviah? Surely not. In all likelihood, Unohana is considering the fact that this 'daughter' of hers has more tricks in her bag that will unravel as the battle proceeds. For now, she would play elementary with Neviah until those secrets were revealed.
