Hollow Hunting Club

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

Ichigo's eyes go wide as he suddenly feels the attack against the back of his elbow, the blade cutting past the flesh as his arm reflexes by moving forward to further avoid any further damage. He turns swiftly to his left to face the attacking shinigami, his face going more into a frown than before.

[Lost Rebirth]

The numb pain would be felt at the elbow where the wound would hit. The blade that had assaulted Ichigo was ice cold.

Ketsu used his feet to kick off the ground, pulling his sword with him, and fly back to his original spot. "That wasn't very fun." Ketsu pointed out. He was pretty sure Ichigo was right handed, and that attacked would significantly hurt his fighting.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

Ichigo's left hand grasps upon his right arm as he looks toward the wound, feeling the sudden numbness that took place as blood started to flow from it.

"What?!" He looks at this guy, angrier than before. "Who the hell are you," he asks as he kept a grip on his arm.

[Lost Rebirth]

Ketsu ran foreward. He strided to the left and came at Ichigo's side. He held both swords ready, incase his enemy retailiated. If he did not, Ketsu would make a horizontal slash with Balming at the enemy's left bicep. Should the attack hit, the muscle would be cut open and make the left arm as useless as the right.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

Kurosaki reacts by having his left hand grip the handle of his sword as it crosses in front of him, pulling it above and to the left in a quick swing that will deflect the blade coming at him as he uses multiple step backs to follow along with Ketsu's movement. At the same time, the wrappings that encased his blade will grow shorter in length as they unravel to the handle, leaving a tail of it flowing from the end.

[Lost Rebirth]

Ketsu matched Kurosaki's sword which his scarrarb. Being ambidexterous was key to fighting with two weapons, and Ketsu was ambindexterous. Now with the enemy's sword at bay, the attack should cut into Ichigo's bicep. The attack should not cut as deeply as intended, but enough to do some damage.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

Ichigo's left shoulder moves back as he raises his elbow of this arm and pulls back his blade, causing it to slide along the scabbard and raise the edge of it in defence against the intended slash for his bicep. This allowed him to both avoid the attack and defend against it, having both blades of Ketsu's against Zangetsu, the name of his own cleaver-shaped weapon. His left foot slides back as his right leg bends, his sandals sliding along the grass beneath them more toward the building. The teeth still showed from Ichigo's teeth, obviously very ticked off that he was suddenly attacked like that. He knew he was going to have to teach this guy a lesson in messing with Ichigo Kurosaki.

[Lost Rebirth]

Ichigo was probably not used to fighting with a ******** up right elbow. The cut on his right elbow would probably cut his strength in using that arm in half, and the pain from using it would be, yet another burden.

Ketsu pushed with both his blades, which should overpower Ichigo, and possibly slam his own sword into him.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

The pain was not something he could easily ignore, but he had worse; much worse. However, his left arm was just as strong as his right in wielding the blade, using his own shinigami power to allow him to wield his weapon with ease, sometimes doing the same with only his right hand. Ketsu's force against his would continue to push against Zengetsu, but Kurosaki shows no give. His feet would have him soon come to a stop, having enough friction and balance in his stance to now place Ketsu at a solid standstill, his teeth still clenched. Ichigo was fed up with this now, his blade suddenly flaring with his white colored spirit force as a massive charge of energy gathers along and within the blade.

[Lost Rebirth]

It was obvious what was happening, Ichigo was going to use his bankai, final release, against Ketsu. Ketsu being no idiot spoke a single sentence, "Balmung of the Frozen Gale, reveal thy true power!" When the words were emmited a blue swirl of spirit energy began to rival Ichigo's.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

Ichigo grunts in total annoyance as he stares Ketsu down, his blade continuing to increase in spiritual power. But a smirk comes to his face. "You're not as much as a weakling as I thought. So, I take it you came from Soul Society to test me out or what?"

[Lost Rebirth]

"I came to defeat you!" Ketsu called back, pushing with a newfound force. He pulled back Balmung and twisted the sword through the air. The scarab held against Ichigo's own sword, keeping the standstill. Balmung came down hard in a vertical slash down, in an attempt to end the stalemate by slamming Ichigo's sword into the ground. With the swing of the sword came a chilling gale. The attack would not freeze Ichigo himself, but any saliva in his mouth, snot in his nose, water on his body would be frozen. The wind would also push hard against his face.

[Rigel Shaw]

Rigel appears in a burst of flame at a close distance to the dojo. "Well I'm close!" Rigel looked to the west which was toward the dojo. Within seconds he was running towards it.

[Kurosakii Ichigo]

When the sword hits into Kurosaki's blade, a sudden spray of spiritual force will burst from the blade, the gale winds of Ketsu's power being suddenly impacted by the force that was drawing across Ichigo's blade. The power caused the area around them to be affected, in that their own conflicting auras had the trees blowing and the grass bending to their will. The attack only caused his blade to react in this way and still not give, and that is when a great burst of spirit force will shoot against Ketsu, a mere shockwave like effect to knock him back, while the flare of power acted against the icy chill of this unusual power to protect him.

"Hasty intention, but very stupid, too!"

[Lost Rebirth]

Ketsu jumped back, holding his weapons in front of him. He was ready for an attack. He kept tabs on Ichigo's spiritual energy, though the dusk disable actual sight. He was unsure what had just happened, but was prepared for whatever his opponent had in store for him.
