There they were: Yenma and Rakey. Yenma was hoping to take a seat, and it was Rakey's. Some might say he was aiming a bit high, but to him it was either worth doing full out or not at all.
He stood in his usual pose: hands in the fold of his pants, eyes and mouth closed in a sleeping manner, and his back hunched slightly. His looks betrayed his true intentions, although a slouch he was taking this battle seriously.
His eyes shut tight allowed him to use his own unique pesquisa. . . after examining Rakey's lush, vibrant green energy he gave a sigh. He pointed at her and opened his mouth, "You. . . fourth." he said lazily, "If you lose your position to me would you continue to fight me in an attempt to get it back?" he said calmly. He only asked this because he didn't want have to deal with her over and over again. He scratched the back of his head, "Hm~ man what a drag this'll be if I don't win." he shook his head and gave a calm shrug, "Ah well, maybe I'll aim a bit lower next time." not that Yenma wasn't capable of taking fourth seat. He was just an underachiever.
He put his hand on the hilt of his zanpakutou and drew it, it was very small. The sand around him stirred. Taking a deep breathe he opened his eyes revealing their cool green coloration, after adjusting to the brightness around him he took a stance. His height was 6'8 and dwarfed Rakey by a decent amount. His pearl colored blade shone brightly in the sunlight, "What say we get this show on the road~?" he asked calmly.

((If energies and reiatsu are the same to Yenma, Rakey's reiatsu is lavender... >> If not, okie dokie. Also, is Yenma a young man?
I'm sorry I didn't post on the 18th >< I had something come up and I had to log off DX
Anyways, smile Good luck))
Following the sound of static, La Cuarta Espada's figure appeared, the sand stirred and flew up just below The Fourth's eyes. Giving a slight view of who was in her prescence. After gravity had pulled the sand back down to the ground on which the two stood, a clear view became available to her majestic amethyst eyes. Although she already knew who it was, she had never met the arrancar before, this young man in front of Rakey, Yenma. Dressed in the typical arrancar uniform, plain white with the black hems. The hollow mask of his, resembled that of a sea creature, one that primarily relied on its defense, the clam. Taking this into note, Rakey assumed his abilities were primarily on defense, rather than offense. His hollow hole was hidden somewhere, but it wasn't visible for the clothing the arrancar wore covered a majority of Yenma's body.
The Cuarta Espada looked up at the arrancar, he was fairly tall compared to her, much taller than 6 feet, she assumed. Having to tilt her head upward because this Espada only stood at 5'9, she looked to the opponents face, the words he spoke, she listened. Across her face a light smile grew, following that, her mouth opened and her calming voice escaped, “We'll just have to wait and see... neh?” Rakey Lamilton answered Yenma with a countenance full of excitement. It had been a while since she had fought someone. “... If and when that time comes we'll see,” Her normal expression washed away as it grew more playful, the arrancar chuckled to the boy's comment. “Maybe you should've~”.
“Let's see if you were meant to take this rank,” La Cuarta Espada giggled as she pointed to her bosom where the '4' was printed on her white vest. Then, she dropped her arms comfortably in front of her, ready to defend her position. The colorless boots she wore clicked as they gradually spread shoulder length apart. The crunching noise of the sand filled the quiet of the area as she shifted her position. Waiting for his first move because he was of a lower rank, it was only respectful to have him take the first strike. Still wearing a smile on her face, she waited for his attack, her deep purple eyes analyzing his every movement, ready for anything. The hands that she held out, began to have relaxing, soft, lavender reiatsu dance around her gloved hands, whether to be used for an attack, or defense, Rakey was ready for Yenma.

((Okie Dokie~ Sorry for my delayed post. . . guild trippiness. I posted a response, but it never showed up. . . Ah well~~))
Yenma combed the hair covering his left eye away, his cool green eye examined her a bit more. "Hm," he chuckled, "You're quite the looker. . . I assume that a pale purle is you color, what was it again. . . oh yeah, lavender." he said noting the purple scarf, star, and zanpakutou hilt, "Not to mention your energy signature is purple." he let his hair fall back over his eye and sighed heavily. He noted the surrounding energies. . . Grey, grey, grey, grey, and grey. Nothing to complicated to avoid, Rakey's will stand out above the others. . .
There was silence between the two, "So. . . what is your preffered method of fighting~?" he asked her as he streched his arm. He suddenly generated a large amount of energy and appeared in front of Rakey, "Do you prefer straight on head to head fighting?" he said pointing his sword at her he suddenly vanished then reappeared again, only this time behind her, "Sneak attacks~?" he once more used his Sonido to go back to where he was at the beginning of the battle, "Or are you an arial fighter~?" he sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "Ah well~~" he said, "It doesn't matter. I myself prefer to fight from below. If you consider it dirty fighting not much I can do about it, we all have our preffered method of fighting." he said as he began to sink into the sand. "Well then, since you're so intent on letting me have the first move I shall happily oblige to the notion." the whole time he was sinking into the sand, till he was completely submersed.
His energy was faint and he moved about quickly under the sand, so being able to pinpoint his location would prove a trying task. His pesquisa allowed him to see in the sand, Rakey's energy stood out against a black background. He unsheathed his wakizashi and aimed it at the purple glow. . . Steady. . . he revved back his arm and held his zanpakutou by the handle like a spear. Once his arm was pulled back all the way he took a deep breathe then threw it at Rakey. It came at her from the front and traveled in a diagonal line going upwards, as it neared the surface it began to glow brightly. It emerged a few feet int front of Rakey, no doubt giving her time to dodge or block, but it was travelling fast enough for her to not notice till the moment it popped out of the sand.

((UGH... Having to retype this 4 times due to my stupid computer being stupid. =3= It's alright though smile I understand. Also, I apologize for my late posting, busy trying to keep my APWH grade from falling to a C.... Parents, they can be scareh. D8 ))
Ignoring the arrancar's flattery, Rakey wasn't phased by it, for, she already had someone important to her, and that man, was not Yenma. Listening to him go on and on, she chuckled, glad to know that the arrancar knew the colors on the color wheel. Then, La Cuarta noticed Yenma's change in attention. It was towards their surroundings, what was so interesting about it? The surrounding area was practically the same as every else in Las Noches, sand, and more sand. What in the world would cause him to look at the sand around them, nothing was different about it, for, IT WAS SAND! Tilting her head in question to the arrancar's sudden action, Rakey tried to think of possible answers.
Maybe he collects sand, no. Maybe, he lost something, no. Maybe, it had something to do with the fight that he kept stalling on, possibly. Or maybe, he was just making sure there was nothing else except sand, again, another possibility. But the likeliness of that being true, was slim. As he stopped talking, a wave of silence drowned them, it was a calming silence, causing Rakey to let out a sigh and smile. Then that calming silence, was broken. Broken by Yenma's voice, only to ask a question, a silly question. Asking Rakey what her method of fighting was. For what reason, would anyone give their opponent an important secret? Only to give their opponent an advantage. Which, Rakey would not do, for she was defending her rank, and would do nothing of the sort, that would cause the opposite. After the talkative young arrancar asked one question he sonido'd, causing the waiting Cuarta to assume an attack was coming her way. The speed of his sonido, was slow compared to others Rakey had come across before. "...As expected of a fraccion," she chuckled lightly.
Reflexively, Rakey thrust a fist out to punch him across the face, but he murmured a third question and sonido'd just as quickly as he had come. No sign of attacking. Then, Yenma's figure reappeared behind her, a possibility that he wouldn't attack emerged from his last sonido, but there was another chance that was only a fake. Thus, Rakey spun around to face the reappeared figure of Yenma, and jump back out of his reach. Again, he whispered and then returned to his original place where he had stood seconds earlier.
Fighting underground he said. How in the world would he do that? Then, La Cuarta noticed the arrancar sinking into the ground, smoothly. 'Ahh, so his ability to fight undergorund was like, swimming was to people, in a way,' Rakey assumed. Shuffling her feet, she began to move in a randomized way, giving Yenma a harder time to find her. Given, he still had the ability of sight under the ground, but then again, he still had pesquisa. Then, she jumped up, her strong legs boosting her 10 meters into the air, releasing reishi particles from the flat of her foot, Rakey formed a plate of reishi to stand upon.
After Yenma's figure was gone from sight and in the ground, a second silence came over her. This silence, not the same as the previous, it set Rakey on edge, anticipating Yenma's attack to come out at anytime. The left gloved hand of her's, clutched onto the cold sheath of Mamoru, whilst her right gloved hand, crept across her torso towards the zanpakuto-. The metallic song of a blade being unsheathed emerged through the silence. "Ahh," Rakey sighed, glad the silence had momentarily faded. Looking at the boring sand under her, she concentrated on the reiatsu signature of Yenma. Though it may have been a task to others, it wasn't too hard for her, it did take her some time, but wasn't that hard. A lavender coating danced around the blade, followed by the star that hung on her hilt, glowing a marbled black and magenta. The eerie glow trialed up the chain, to the hilt and crawled to her hands, distorting the dimension around her hands.
Her right hand holding the zanpakuto-, she waited for asign to comfirm his spot, and that just came moments later. His zanpakto- flew out, and Rakey made a side step to dodge it. Rakey then made numerous slashes, the cosmic energy that was given from the star, contributing to the speed at which she made the slashes. Each strike burst from her blade, a wave of reishi hitting into the sand, gradually digging deeper, and hopefully reaching the arrancar underneath. So fast those blasts were, that the booming noise, came seconds after the strikes had hit the sand. A sonic boom. The voice of the espada followed after the Sonic booms, "Sonic blast,". The name given to these attacks.

Yenma's head popped out of the sand to see how far off his attack was, "Wasn't too far off." he mumbled, "With my speed being a bit lack-lustre I'm going to have to push myself to my limits just to keep up with her." he let out a sigh of annoyance. "Well, I undercut her abilities heavily, but oh well, she'll be on her toes fighting me." he said as he slowly sank back under.
Once he was back under the sand he was taken by surprise by Rakey's quick counterattack. He darted deeper into the sand to anticipate a depth he would be safe in, but as soon as the first blade of energy hit the sand his pesquisa was thrown out of whack. The energy the technique she called 'Sonic Boom' created a blinding flash as it hit the sand, "Damn." Yenma shouted as he swam backwards atempting to avoid the blasts, he noted that each one was getting closer and closer to him. As he dodged the blasts he hit a rock that blocked his path and was trapped as the final blast approached him. He thought quickly and fired a weakly charged Cero, but strong enough to minimized the damage he would take.
Once the dust around him cleared he let out a deep cough, "It seems that I have horribly underestimated your abilities." he said shrugging his shoulders. he quickly sank back into the sand and reappeared in another patch of sand where his zanpakutou had landed after being dodged by Rakey. His blade was swallowed up by the sand. A few moments later he emerged from underneathe the sand, his zanpakutou sheathed and his usual position assumed. "Rakey," he chuckled, "Seems like this is going to be a bit one sided eh~?" he shook his head with dissaproval. "Seems like I'll have to go all out if I want to stay alive." he took a sted forward and a small clump of sand formed under neather his foot creating a foot hold for him so he could be on the same ground as Rakey.
"Air battle really isn't a strong suit of mine, but if it's were you feel best I'd gladly oblige to fight you in the skies." he shouted as he darted towards Rakey his zanpakutou aimed at her stomache.

"Hrmph," Rakey let out an odd grunt, of dissatisfaction, for her blows didn't all reach her target. Narrowing her eyes, she saw Yenma's head appear from the dust cloud. He had horribly underestimated her the arrancar had said, though it was true, the Espada simply smiled softly and said, "Don't worry Yen-chan, I forgive you,". She tensed her leg muscles, ready for an attack, as he sank back into the sand. Her boot sliding slightly on the reishi plate in the air, a simple trick used by the manipulation of reiatsu. Sheathing her zanpakto- she balled her hands into fists. Then, she let out a deep sigh as she turned her head to Yenma's new spot where he reappeared above the sand. He had appeared near his zanpakto-, that'd when it hit her, she could've caught his weapon, and used it against him. "Tsktsktsk," La Cuarta said to herself. "All well," She smiled calmly as she looked at her opponent, simply waiting.
The young arrancar had sunken back into his domain along with his blade. Keeping herself warmed up Rakey bobbed up and down from one foot to another, her arms spread wide to keep balance. Seconds later, with a sheathed zanpakto-, Yenma had appeared above ground. Landing on her left foot, she stopped hopping around. A cheerful and carefree smile upon her face still, "How about we just treat it as a simple yet serious spar then? Like a sister teaching her little brother?" Rakey then raised her left hand, and rubbed her nose, the dust from earlier had caused it to get itchy. "Achoo!" The Espada sneezed quietly. "Excuse me," She apologized, then, returning to the topic she told Yenma, "Hehe, seems so,".
With magenta eyes, she watched Yenma come to eye level with her, but using a clump of sand. "Ara? Why don't you simply use a reishi plate? That's what everyone else does," Rakey asked, tilting her head in question to his methods of staying in the air. Noticing that her opponent had already begun his next move, she giggled, a hint of malicious intent surfacing in her voice. This was becoming a fun little game to her. Quickly, the Fourth squatted low, and pushed off, using the leg muscles she held so much pride in. Jumping feet above him, "Hut," She grunted as she forced her body to roll in midair, causing her head to be pointing towards the ground and her feet up pointing to the heavens. Concentrating, she formed another plate of reiatsu on her feet, using it as leverage she pushed off.
Her left arm balling into a fist and reiatsu dancing around it, Rakey aimed for the arrancar, straight to the face. "Liberar," she chuckled to herself, as her body neared the boy. The reiatsu that had danced around her fist had begun to condense at her knuckles. Liberar, had signaled the release of the compacted reiatsu. Once her fist would barely touch the arrancar, the reiatsu would burst off her knuckles, like a highly pressurized burst of air, would pack a bigger punch then her normal. Plus, the high speed that she was already moving at would be tough enough as is.
Noticing the zanpakto- was still in his hands, Rakey had realized her body would keep moving even after she hit him, and there was a possibility she'd hit the blade of the weapon. It couldn't be that bad, she thought. A small scratch, couldn't be that bad... is what she had thought before when fighting with the 13th division captain, and her lover, Mockadash. That was a huge mistake. Thinking as quickly as she could, Rakey murmured, " Cubrir mis piernas,(Cover my legs)" As she passed Yenma, she eyed her legs, not paying attention to whether or not he had hit the boy. The reiatsu of hers had quickly formed on her leg, but due to the hastened command, it had not fully formed to its full potential and hadn't protected the Espada from the blade. Passing as if the reiatsu shield hadn't formed on her legs, the metal of Yenma's zanpakto- grinded against her hierro. "Agh!" In pain, Rakey cried out, the blade making contact with her skin, cutting a long strip down her thigh stopping at her knee.
"Stupid miscalculation," Rakey grunted to herself as she rolled her body again, forming another plate and sliding gracefully onto it. Once her feet had stopped sliding on the reishi plate, she looked at the small damage done to her leg. "He's not a blood based zanpakto- user... I hope," Rakey chuckled to herself, as she took flicked a seed out of the butt pocket of her black short shorts. Tossing it in the air, she formed a bala right under it. The beige hued seed landing into the center of the bala, just as it met the core of the bala, Rakey flicked it to Yenma. "Catch!" She called out to him. The added reiatsu in the bala from the seed couldn't be felt do to the fact both were made of her own reiatsu. Letting out a sigh, Rakey stretched her arms out and slapped her bare left thigh, tryin to slap away the pain. "Ouch," she cried to herself. Stupid idea, she thought as she pouted to herself.
Looking back up to where Yenma was, the bala was speeding it's way towards him. A smile crept on her face, a smile so similar to that of which Ichimaru Gin-sama wore. "Heheh," La Cuarta giggled.
((Oh man... @_@ Do I sound godmoddy?? I hope not 8( I think I left a lot of choice options in here. ;~; I always feel like I'm godmodding crying ))

Yenma was bewildered at how quick she moved. He quickly stepped back and watched out for where she was moving: forward, above, toward, then away. She had injured herself somewhere in the flurry of movement. "Like a squirrel." he chuckled, he then saw her charge her bala and toss a seed into the mix, "Wha~" he said as the bala was quickly fired at him. The purpose of the seed to him was still a mystery so he thought it best to simply avoid the move.
The sand he was standing on became soft and he slipped right through it, he stopped once his hand reached the end. He dangled holding onto a single platform of sand, but he quickly hoisted himself back up once the Bala passed, still unaware of what the seed would do he kept his senses up in an attempt to notice any oddities that would come from it. He then turned to face her. "I think a spar would be nice." he said in response to her statement.
He pushed off of the platform he formed and lept down with his right leg baring down on her in an attempt to bring her down to the ground, his shark skinned ribbon would most likely damage her if it at all made contact. He was using his size to gain a physical advantage.

"Aww, you didn't get hurt~," Rakey pouted, as she lightly smacked herself in the forehead. "Tsktsktsk, a squirrel, is only but my friend, I think what you want to say, is a deer..." Noticing her bala completely miss him, she smiled. "Gotta hand it to you, your a lucky fellow," The fourth Espada chuckled to herself as she pulled her scarf to make it loose around her neck. After the bala had completely passed him, Rakey snapped her finger, the seed inside it, exploding, the force simply caused the bala to poof and disappear. "Poor thing..." Rakey murmured, referring to the seed. It couldn't grow, and be of use to her.
Holding out her hand she frowned, clutching it tight. The poor seed couldn't grow into her favorite clover. She was curious to see what color it would be after leeching some of her opponents reiatsu. With a couple in her pocket still, she could find out. But, not yet, she'd find out later, or maybe not at all. Letting out a small and genuine smile she looked up.
Noticing Yenma come down to her from above, she noticed his knee had a ribbon on it, and was aimed to her. Whatever that was, it'd due damage to her, some way or another. "Haha," A chuckle was let out as she jumped to the side, and jumped diagonally to meet him. While doing so, she flipped again, sticking her leg out. Rakey's plan, to connect her kick with his back, sending him flying to the ground.

As Yenma came down on Rakey his movement slowed, everything blurred. He looked her in the eyes as she side-stepped and delivered a kick of his own. He used sonido, but it was odd, his actions were incredibly fast and slightly more precise then earlier. He reappeared on the ground and looked up into the air to see if Rakey were pursuing him and she didn't for the moment. He knew at the time that they were both playing with each other and he really didn't want things to drag on. He knew in terms of speed he was beat, but in endurance he had her beat, attack was a bit hazy, but in that area Yenma was no slack. His cool green eyes carefully watching Rakey, noting any change in spiritual pressure or actions.
After a few moments he shook his head and slowly pulled his wakizashi from it's sheath, "I'll be expecting you to fight me at your best Rakey." he held his wakizashi in both hands, the sand around him began to stir with life. He took a deep breath and whispered to his blade, "Form. . ." he took a pause, "Pearl." At that moment the green fabric that wrapped around the hilt of his zanpakuto burst from the handle and wrapped around Yenma's arms, once it crawled up to his shoulders it hardened creating a smooth shell like armor. The blade turned into a liquid and covered Yenma's hands, once it took shape his hands were coated in a smooth nigh impenetrable pearl like substance, the tips of his fingers had a slight pointed end. The only remaining part, his hilt, formed a luxurious soft white fur ring around his wrist. The only difference between the two hands was that his hollow hole remained on his left hand.
Once his release was complete it seemed a bit short handed. He had barely shown an increase in spiritual pressure, and his only increased stat was his already high defense. If anything some would say his ressureccion was flashy at the most, but this was untrue. He ressureccion's purpose was to merely further Yenma's rate of survival, and therein lied his secret to battle. Once he outlasted an opponent he could wipe them out with his attacks. He wasn't a weakling that relied on defeating already weakened opponents, he was just someone that liked savoring the actions an opponent made in desperation to survive. He gave rRakey a nod telling her that he was ready, ready for whatever she could throw at him.
