Captain Mashiro Morimoto "HMPH" Mashiro sighed as he bowed his head. " Your loss... I don't know how you are on the job, since everyone went to your Squad for healing. Anyhow, its empty." Mashiro lifted the jug above his head and shook it. All that came out was two drops. They hit the ground without so much of a sound. " Ah, Hatsume,"Mashiro said as he moved over a little, avoiding her tripping onto him. " What took you so long? Shinzou and the others left an hour ago.... Ah, no matter. Come sit with me, you too Mikhail." He waved for them to come over as he took a bit of some stale bread. " No need to worry about our Captain, Bolshevik-san. It seems that you don't know much about our Captain, so I will give you a little history lesson...." Mashiro repositioned himself as he began his short story on the Captain. " Just like most of us Shinigami, Mock-Taichou was living in the Rukongai. He joined the Gotei 13 after learnning the ways of Bushido, or the way of the warrior. Well, he was accepted into the 5th Squad. which is a little Irronci since his weak point way kidou. Anyway, he was recruited by the Captain-Commander himself, or Former Captain-Commander I should say. But this wasn't just some position in the Squad, he became 3rd Seat. Then later becoming his Vice-Captain and right hand. In a way you can say that the Captain-Commander was Mock-Taichou's true Sensei"Mashiro only paused to take aother bite of stale bread, which he passed around to Hatusme and Mikhail. " Well, he was fine for a while before his former sensei, who's name I keep forgetting, went rogue and left the Seireitei to join Aizen. Just like anyone else with their friends, Mock-Taichou left with him. That was during the time Aizen [i[Did call war on the Seireitei, when he kidnapped some Captains.
" Well, believe it or not, but the Captain actually fought with the Arrancars and Espada. Or at least that was until he came face to face, or at least I think it was face to face, with the Captain-Commander. Mock-Taichou changed his ways and returned to the Seireitei. If I am not mistaken he also brought his former Sensei.... gah!... I don't remember that name!" Mashiro slamed his hand on the ground next to him. Before getting back to the story, Mashiro got up and started looking for more food. " Ah! I know there has got to be some type of food around here.... Oh! NOW I REMEMBER! The Name Was Asuma Haruka.... Hey Hatsume, can you help me look for some type of food? I don't care if it has been swimming in Hollow Blood, just something other than this stale bread...." (( Ok FYI all the info on the Captain, Mock-Taichou, was off his profile in our profile thread. I did, however add a thing here and there, but almost all of it is true. I will change the post if Mock-Taichou doesn't like it biggrin )) --------------------------------------------- ((Sorry if I got alot of mis-spelling.... My brain feels fried. xD )) Hatsume:::. The kitsune tilted her head in a cute manner as Mikhail introduced himself! Oh! She could feel her admiration tingle up when he mentioned his seating! It was like a sparkle started shining in her eye. "Oye! It's very nice to meet you Mikhail sama!" Yet much like him, seemed to return her gaze on the battle soon afterwards, until .. Dun dun duuun Mashiro engulfed all of her attention from pretty much that moment onward.
Dark narrowed pupils eyed at the bread curiously, food was always such a bad weakness in this shinigami and Hatsume never left without extras strapped onto somewhere. Highly interested in the story about her own captain her large furry ears perked up and listened carefully to each word spoken. Eyes finally falling onto the battle again as her 'other' senses attempted at keeping up with the intense battle.
All seemed to be going well, her muti-tasking mind pondering and learning on the story yet drifting onto other things. Observing rud colored eyes almost seemed worried over the battle going on. It wasn't certain what she was thinking about at that time..... who knows?
>.>; Until...Mashiro broke her focus again. OH! But on what a wonderful subject! She calmly nodded her head, shifting through her sleeves and untying afew strings to release packaged goods. Taking out a container she handed it to Mashiro, within it did it contain small meaty hot-dog like bites and veggies, no fruits... but it did have sweets with it! Maybe even afew large yummy nuts. She set her gaze over to Mikhail curiously, "You hungry too? I'm not so sure what happened to cause me black out for a acouple hours, but.... uhh... If your travels here wore you out! I'm fine now! I have others!" She frowned her brows, obviously immediately concerned about Mikhail's hunger.... situation.. or anybody eles at that point.... then it finally dawned on her sometimes dull mind. "..WAit!! You said Shinzou and Okoji had to go to the Medical company right?? Their alright right? Their not hurt? It's just a check up! ... right Mishiro..?...Mikhail sama..?" She looked to both of them, her tone of voice suddenly confused and shocked and.... worried. ;-; Doh!! Why didn't she notice the connection between Squad four and getting hurt before?! ...... Thus, she yelled and punished herself inside her head of hers. talk2hand

Mikhail nodded in conceit with Mashiro, he had come here not to intervein but to heal any necessary wounds. MockaDash would need healing after this most definately...Rakey too. Fight, fight your hearts out but don't fight till your heart gives out.
Turning to face Hatsume he smirked "No thank you, I'm not hungry but I appreciate the gesture." Still smiling he looked over Hatsume, she was a scatter brained young shinigami who had much potential, she needed only to focus her scatter brainness into a positive thing, such as unpredictable moves or something of the such. All he knew was that one day she and Mashiro would be great shinigami.
"Your friends are fine Hatsume, they are in perfect dondition and should be returning to duty after 24hours of rest which should now be around 8 left." Khail took pride in his skill, he knew that he was a flawless healer and that he was able to heal others fast and efficiently. As always, he took great care in focusing his massive amounts of reiatsu into thin streams which he found most effective and allowed him to endure more for longer.

(( Gomen nasai! *bows* I was only able to make my post now. Anyways, I'm finding amusing all this speculation about the battle! It's fun to see some people rooting for me and others for Rakey. A crowd only cheering for one side would be dull! This makes me want to stretch the battle longer - but this depends much on Rakey, as well! xp
I liked reading my background being told by another RPC. Great story Mashiro!!! Though it has some inaccuracies in it, it pleasures me that much more having it being told that way - since it adds credibility to it, seeing as each persons tells something from his/her own point of view!
Concerning battles, I think of myself as an hardcore RPer! xd I enjoy RPing a walk through a park or a conversation on a bar, as much as I enjoy RPing a heated battle! Most people this days only care for the last. But anyway, "to each his own". Let me just say this, I also see the same pleasure that I have in RPing in general, in many members of this Guild. And this pleases me much!
I don't care much about rank - though it's true that a higher rank allows for higher power, I still hold RPing skills and literacy above all else - but anyway, speaking of battle records: I've never lost a battle before. And yes, I've fought Rakey (and I apologize in advance for saying this Ayu-chan, though I was pretty much left unscathed by the time the fight was over, Rakey was near-death *sumimasen*). Though I must admit, that of that little PRP of us, the battle we held is not what amused me more. :Whee: ))Au3 Seeing the Itsuryu Mock shot at the Cero she made. She quickly assumed they would negate eachother. Then as she thought his offense was over her pesquisa sensed reishi. Reishi that was quickly traveling, from below. She looked down quickly seeing the ice already nearing her feet. As she began to run backwards, ready to sonido the dark shadow of the Itsuryu loomed from above.
"Tch!" she muttered as she sonido'd backwards. Her back falling down towards the ground as she pushed with her feet. A jump while using sonido giving her further distance to cover and hopefully, escape the two attacks. While she soared between the two attacks she pointed her left hand to the edge of Itsuryu, where she was probably going to land. Forming a bala in her hand, charging it as long as she could and releasing it. Luckily, with her accuracy it hit, and stopped the spreading of Itsuryu there momentarily.
While her left hand did this, her right was already reaching for her zanpakto-. once her hand touched the hilt of her katana. She felt a sudden sting as the icicles that emerged from the ground stuck her right leg. She let out a gasp in pain. As she finally neared the end of the Itsuryu and shifted her weight giving her an extra push backwards, by doing a backflip. Once she landed, she unsheathed Mamoru from her back and muttered. "Sonic blow..."
With that phrase, the crystal star keychain, which hung off the hilt of her zanpakto- glowed lightly. As it distorted the dimension around Rakey's hands, giving her the ability to deliver a numerous amount of reiatsu enforced slashes. The slashes, so powerful they cause a sonic boom with each and every slice. Since the variable of speed is already taken care of by the spacial distortion from the cosmic energy, she only needed to take care of focusing on the power needed in the slashes.
After what seemed like a second, she had already delivered the blows. These slashes were planned on getting rid of the Itsuryu, the ice on the ground, and reaching to attack Mock. But, this being her first time using this attack, the outcome, was unknown.
Letting out a sigh, she looked to her right, and saw Mikhail. Her blank face let out a small smile, but soon returned to the serious-ness it had earilier. She couldn't let her emotions get the best of her, not when she was fighting with Mock-sama.
Weird to say the least. But if one had insight on Mock's and Rakey's relationship, then it wouldn't be so.
After the sigh, came a grin. A piece of ice had pierced through the Espada's body, and was stuck inside her leg. Gobanmeshiro -- Roteki -- Tsumetai Akuryoku. [Fifth Castle/White, Dewdrop, Cold/Freezing/Heartless Grip] Mock muttered, his voice a whisper in the wind.
As Rakey release Mamoru, her reiatsu suddenly spiked, and was about to batter Mock, if he hadn't also - effortlessly - released some of his own, that he had been preventing from leaking. A chiller current invaded the air, accompanied by a howl of the wind.
You can't possibly consider that to be an offensive. he commented, between puffs of tobacco smoke.
Aside from the annoying sound that the sonic booms caused on his ears, he was unimpressed by La Cuarta's attacks directed at him. MockaDash actually payed more attention to the glimpse she gave at Mikhail, a disclosure of a certain degree of intimacy towards that Shinigami, than to the attacks itself.
Sure, being infused with cosmic energy, and being inherently fast, they (the attacks) might have presented themselves as fearsome. Sadly for Rakey, they didn't. The sonic boom that accompanied each release of cosmic energy, only made the attacks that much easier to detect and calculate. And after all, MockaDash was a battoujutsu master - delivering swift and precise blows with a weapon, was his true proficiency.
And in relation to power, at this level, it was nothing that a single Itsuryu couldn't deal with!
And so it did. A single brandish of the dark blade. A single wave of black reiatsu. Only this time, the dark emanation did not abandon the length of the blade. No. It would kept itself attached to it, waving as the Captain swung the naginata at the sonic discharges. Dispersing them one by one - since the trail of dark energy lingered in front of him and engulfed each and every attack that was directed towards himself.
Now gripping the Zanpakutou with his right hand only, the dark blade was pointed towards the ground, on Mock's right side. The dark wave, as pitch-black as the moonless night, still attached to it, curling as the winds struck it and its energy waved.
Can't you feel it, Rakey-dono? That cold clenching inside your leg? As if the ice demon was ripping your flesh from the inside out? Will you embrace its enticing promise of oblivion this time?
A while back, after the ice shard from one of the icicles became "housed" inside Rakey's tender flesh, and as Mock whispered the command sentence, that small fragment of ice had grown and spread. In the process, it was not only tearing the inside of her leg, it was also completely freezing it, little by little.
If the Espada refused to spend a portion of her reiryoku to negate the ice progress through her body, she would utterly lost control over that limb. And given time, the ice would spread throughout her entire body. At this point however, its effect were still being felt in that small area where the shard was stuck - but at the moment there was no longer a shard, rather it had spread and turned into several microscopical ice crystals, ever multiplying.
Ultimately, only Rakey's reiryoku could negate it now.
I'm in awe of your power, Rakey-dono. You have grown even stronger than before. Alas, it doesn't seem yet enough to counter my own. Completely dispelling the remains of ice spikes still on the ground, in order to create a clear path towards his target, Mock shumpoed, appearing right in front of Rakey, swinging the dark blade of his naginata towards her in a clean vertical cut. Still connected to the blade, was the wave of compressed reiatsu. Waving, as it came down on her body - if not avoided or countered, it would split it in half.

(Lol, perfect timing on the part about RP topic.... I'm RPing by myself right now about Shinzou getting lost in the forest, and I must say that my posts are much better than they would be if I were RPing with someone else. I think it's because when I RP with others I only work off of what they are giving me, so my posts seem short and flimsy.)

(( Well, you double posted. In you first post you clearly stated feeling my presence there, and the spar between me and Hinata was prior the Time-Skip, so I can only assume that your fist post was as well.
I can think of two ways we can work this out. A) Your first post is before the Time-skip and your second is after. B) Both posts are happening after the Time-skip, and you did sensed my presence, but it's a different event altogether. I just happened to be in the forest at the same time you entered it.
If you go with B, we could have a RP if you'ld like. ))

((Mock... I didn't release yet, I just unsheathed : ) I have a question, a sonic boom, doesn't the loud suction noise from the attack come after it passes? So wouldn't you get hit by the attack before you heard it? Or did you see it dodge it and then hear it? Meh... *is confused* X? ))
Cringing at her right leg as she looked down, some blood trickled down her leg. "Deja vu," she muttered as she looked back up. The first wound she had received from Mock in the last fight, was on her leg as well. Through the semi transparent reiatsu enforced strikes Rakey had just performed, she could barely see the Captain's grin, but it still caused a chilling effect.
The cold and calculative nature of Mockadash's zanpakto- had chills scurrying down her spine. La Cuarta tried to shake the feeling off, but the same feeling would keep creeping back. Assuming she'd have time to remove the ice chunk from her leg, Rakey knelt down and tensed her calf muscles hoping to squeeze the chunk of ice out. It worked only slightly, since Mock had already recited his next move and the ice had already secured it's place, and had begun it's work on screwing up her leg.
She concentrated reiatsu into her fist and released it over the ice, chipping some of it off. But roughly 60% of the chunk was still in her calf working through. The ice was doing something similar to Ketsueki Zenchou's ability to control blood, but with ice. Considering she was able to slow the effects of the zanpakto-'s ability during the last time with her reiatsu, she should be able to do so with the ice in her leg.
The ice was already freezing her leg, and numbing it little by little, she had no time to contemplate and think of possible drawbacks to this. Thus, the Espada began to concentrate her reiatsu to her lower right leg to slow the effects. Luckily, Rakey's assumption was right and the pain slowed but it was still their. Only to where she could ignore it, for now. As she grit her teeth together to the feeling of the pain, she stood back up.
As the arrancar gripped Mamoru in both of her hands, Rakey sighed. Fighting someone was one thing, but fighting Mock-sama was a totally different thing. Once Mock shumpoed she, felt his reiatsu signature near her, and stepped back reflexively. After Mockadash had his naginata blade had sliced downwards and finished it's path, Rakey sonido'd to Mock's left side still facing him and sliced at him with Mamoru diagonally.
The blade was coated in a thin layer of her reishi to give it a slightly longer reach. While the thickness made it less noticable to sense. Since, her reiatsu color was a light hue it wouldn't be that noticable.
As Rakey's katana blade neared Mock-sama's side, her grip on Mamoru's hilt tightened. The Espada hoped to reach him, but Rakey understood that Mock was more experienced in sword fighting, so she was more in risk of hurting herself, rather than her opponent.
(Oooh~ Lengthy post =w= )

((@Rakey: Lengthy post, so? I love those! xp Anyways, you know that physics is not my thing, I'm a chemist. But without getting too technical, I believe that sonic booms are caused by pressure waves on the air produced by a movement of a certain object - in this case, an energy attack. These waves travel at the speed of sound and always accompany the movement of what is producing them. Now, these sonic booms are produced at subsonic speeds, meaning that one of three things can occur: 1)If the object is traveling at subsonic velocity, then the sound would always reach me first; 2) if the object travels at sonic velocity then they would reach me at the same time; 3) and finally, if the object is traveling faster than the speed of sound, then I would only hear the sound after the attack had reached me.
Since you didn't specify, I assumed that it would be unlikely that the attacks are traveling faster than the speed of sound, so I was able to hear the sonic boom before the attacks reached me. If I'm mistaken about this, then I'll edit my previous post. Though it wouldn't make much of a difference, since Mock is more relying on Rakey's movements to predict the attacks than the sounds accompanying it. I merely stated that hearing the sound made it easier to predict them, and not fundamental.
Oh!... And about the release part, I know you just unsheathed it. I meant release mamoru's power - the sonic attacks. Though I admit that it can lead to misinterpretations.
@ Shinzou: Hum... My bad. I was unsure about the time your character was entering the forest, since I thought you were still in the 4th squad healing room. My bad, I'm a bit inattentive these days due to my exams. So I guess Option B it is.
@ Mikhail: Aren't all squads recovering? I mean, some of them haven't even been liberated. But you're right in one thing. This Squad had recently been revamped. It's not like the Captain position had switched places. No, the former Captain is now the Commander-General, so most of the members switched Squad and almost everyone in here is a new member to the Guild. So yes, it was a fresh start and it happened in a bad time due to the Time-Skip plot. And on top of everything, I just like to keep things clean and well organized - also, coherence is of utmost importance to me. So the first thing we'll be doing, is organizing the Squad IC. I think it ridiculous to simply assume that everything is as it was before we left. And that we can simply resume RPing in the same places as before as if they haven't changed. So a few changes will be introduced. - a place like the endless forest however, won't suffer significant changes, as obvious, so RPing there at the moment is acceptable. But the remaining building are out of the question since they've been destroyed.
And now - finally sweatdrop - onto my post. ))
Idiot!!! MockaDash though to himself, as Rakey appeared on his left flank coming out from a sonido. My attack was meant to push you away, not draw you closer.
Mock was standing now in the exact position that Rakey was when he created those icicles, so ice was beneath his feet. - it wouldn't cause him to slip though, since he was coating his soles with reishi. The same would probably be true for Rakey. The dark blade of his naginata struck the ground, and a cloud of dust and debris rose into the air.
Mamorigami. the Captain muttered. Instantly, the ice on the ground to his left, arose and shaped itself into a thick column. The wall thus formed was half a meter thick, and the remaining dimensions of it can roughly be described as being twice the height and width of Mock's body. Being infused with reishi, it was able to completely block Rakey's attack.
The sheer power of the Espada's attack, was able to destroy half of the protective ice wall. Large chunks of ice were sent flying as the wall cracked.
Tsurara. The 13th Squad Captain had used this attack before. Well, not exactly like this. This time, a single large spike of ice was produced, but originating in the center of the wall of ice that blocked Rakey's katana. The icicle was roughly a meter in diameter at the base, and two meters in height - meaning that if Rakey didn't dodge it in time, from where she was standing, the icicle would tore her body in two at the waist line. Please Rakey-dono... mock thought, not even finishing the words in his mind, out of fear for what could happen if this battle continued like this.
The dark wave of KetsuekiZenchou's Itsuryu was still attached to the dark blade of Mock's Zanpakutou. The Shinigami jumped in the air, above the wall of ice he conjured, and aimed to land a slash of the dark blade - and the powerful attack of dark reiatsu that came along with it - on top of Rakey's head. Even from behind the ice wall, Mock was able to adjust his jump in accordance to Rakey's position at the time, thanks not to her reiatsu - that, she could mask - but to that of his ice, still inside the Arrancar's leg.

 Hatsume:::. Interruption was made from the kitsune's kind offer. Indeed her eyes had been on currently upon the high ranked Healer, but her ears, senses sent her focus away from her new friends. Ice being born in the distant battle made her face turn, it was as the element snapped something inside of her. Resurrected a memory from long ago, it forced Hatsume to focus deeply on the battle from then on. She didn't notice it, but the surface of her skin was shivering lightly all over. She became in tune with the energies finally, her captain's spiking reiatsu seeming to pull at her interest like a power magnet. Hatsume was always easily attracted to power, anything dealing with a spike in power or a advance in ability. Her pupils narrowed so much they nearly looked like the slits of a cat's eyes. Sonic booms caused her shivering skin to flinch as every serge came.
The scent of blood always entered into her nostrils, but why now did it seem so much more stronger from the Espada's leg? Her large foxen ears shifted back as her eyes broke contact and glanced back at Mashiro and Mikhail. She smirked as a odd random thought entered into her head, how she admired and thought the name Mikhail was cool. But yet, she couldn't help that she thought she heard it before.... She looked back towards her Captain, noticing how quiet her calm her mind was right now.
It was nice.
It was very nice. Why was she so quiet?
"........" Her eyes met back at her Captain's sight when her senses caught onto Rakey Sonido, following it; which aptly- lead her to MockaDash. She curled her tail over to her left back side, starting to feel uncomfortable, starting to feel pressured and stressed.
Afterall, she was focusing deeply on the vibes and motions of not only the battle, but the two individuals who were inside of it. She might have caught onto other vibes or vibrations aswell; including their emotional and intentional motive vibes...So when Hatsume focus and became intune in these vibes when in a clear mind; might have actually picked up them up.. ofcourse.. she might have not too. Who knows? =0
