Kei took several steps back away from Saratobi and looked off to the side. "Understood." He said simply, than spat onto the ground. Kei held out his zanpakuto, it's blade aimed towards Saratobi. "I will think of you as an enemy from now on." Suddenly, Kei's reiatsu started to press down heavily on Saratobi, and even Yuki. "Disguise me, Suijin!" Kei released his shikai, making the blue, cloudless sky quickly turn almost black from the heavy, dark clouds. The captain took a step towards Saratobi as the rain started to pour. Kei flipped his bankai backwards, the two 'hooks' pointing out. Shunpo'd towards Saratobi, and tried to stab one of those hooks into his side to tear him open.

Yuki saw what her Taichou was about to do. She did not want to get hit by anything her Taichou threw at Saratobi, so she pulled her zanpakuto out. "Freeze the stars, Koori Tsuki." With her zanpakuto released, she used the water raining fom the sky to make a sheild of ice around her. "Dear God....." She whispered. Her reiatsu pushed against Kei's adding an icy chill to the air.

Saratobi attempted to use shunpo to side step the coming attack. The combination of the slippery mud forming because of the rain, reiatsu from Kei and the wounds already suffered he wasn't quick enough to fully avoid the hit and the one hook sliced a big gash it his already limp left arm. Saratobi then shunpo'd back several feet waiting for the ice to follow him.

Yuki was scared for Saratobi. With the emotion her reiatsu pushed harder against Kei's without meaning to.

Kei swiped the blade back swiftly, throwing Saratobi's blood onto the ground. "Obliterate, Suijin!" Kei yelled as he released his bankai, his reiatsu pressing down on them even harder than before. Kei smirked towards Saratobi, his grin rather scary. "You asked for this..." The temperature in the area started to drop rapidly, the rain would now sting the skin of Yuki and Saratobi as the drops were starting to freeze. The Captain held his left hand up into the air, behind it a large spike of ice started to form. "Defend yourself, Saratobi!" Kei thrusted his hand forward, shooting the spike of ice towards the fukutaichou. The spike may look like it would be easy to dodge, but several yards away from him it would split up into several pieces.

The cold of Kei-taichou's zanpakuto didn't bother Yuki at all. She wondered why Saratobi was holding back, or even if he was. She probably would be even matched with Kei, not that she would want to fight her taichou. "Come on Saratobi, I don't wanna watch you die."

Saratobi felt the increasing pressure of Kei's reiatsu. Kei once told him of his bankai, but till now he has yet to see it. The rain, no it was no longer rain but now hail, was stinging his entire body. He watched as the blade of ice formed and saw Kei toss the spear of ice daggers towards him.
It was his time to die he thought. Maybe it was a good thing. He failed, again. It would be easier this way. At least there may be a chance to his Umi, his mother, after he was dead. But would she want to, after all, he took the name Tanari after she died promising to ensure none would forget her, but again, he failed. He closed his eyes and prepared to die. Sorry Yuki, but it must be he thought to himself, his last thought...
This pain is nothing. You have felt worse pain throughout your life and I was there to bear it with you. You scavenged as a small child. Living off scraps, even rats when scraps became scarce. But I was with you, though you didn't know it. You awoke one morning to find Tanari-Sama dead in her bed. I was with you, though you didn't know it. When Suratomobeto (only Companion) was killed by those bandits I was with you. But that time I finally showed myself to you. But you did not understand. In the academy you began to understand you were part of a pack, though it was a pack two, as far as you could tell. But this is a pack of three. Do you still not see him on my back? Do you still not hear him?
He does not hear me. He is not Akela, the leader of the pack we thought him to be. He holds back. Guarding himself from pain. Never letting anyone see his true self. When he is dead the pack shall die. It will be no more. Forever forgotten.
I hear. But I cannot see
Do not hold back. Open your eyes and you will see
Saratobi's reiatsu began rising. It rose as high as it ever has those few times he has allowed it. It was his true reiatsu. That which he kept hidden as not to scare his prey away when hunting. He opened his eyes and for a split second he saw the wolf, Oni Ookami, with something small moving on its back. Though he couldn't see it clearly. And then he saw a spear of ice heading for them. His pack. I HEAR YOU! I SEE YOU! yelled Saratobi, angry that someone was trying to hurt his pack.
He flashed steped past the spear of ice before it could break open. But he did not stop and got behind Kei. He used his true speed. A speed he hadn't used since he first learned his Zanpakuto's name, Oni Ookami. A speed which made him one of the, if not the fastest, of the Gotei. He crouched low to avoid Kei's blade which he knew in a second would be coming around for him. He took his blade and slashed at the hamstrings of both of Kei's legs.
You still do not see me or else you would use my strength like you use the rest of the pack's strength to protect it.
(just in case; the other two colors are my zanpakuto. the red is the wolf and the brown is the other (easy to figure out the other from my profile)/ And sorry it took so long but I rewrote this psot like 5 tims before posting it. BTW, whose permission do I need to get to reach Bankai, your or Aizens?)

Kei jumped into the air, barely avoiding the attack to his legs. Once he landed back on his feet, he felt something unexpected, the wet grass below his feet. He had almost had his feet cut off, Saratobi's zanpakuto had cut the bottom of Kei's sandals right off. "It's nice to see that you stopped holding back!" Kei yelled towards Saratobi, than shunpo'd a short distance away. Sarabtobi would see Kei drop his zanpakuto to the ground, it's tip stabbing into the soft soil below, and throw up both of his hands towards the Fukutaichou. "Hado sixty-three, Soren Sokatsui!" Kei's arms jerked back as he fired two blue blasts of energy towards him. "Show me more Saratobi! Show me that you are more than just my Fukutaichou, but my equal!" Kei could feel Saratobi's reiatsu rise, it's exactly what he wanted to feel. He was even thrown off by his Fukutaichou;s speed, it had been a long time since he had seen anyone that fast.

Saratobi jumped over the two blasts of energy towards Kei. He landed and began running faster, and faster, running around Kei and leaving after images. It would appear to most onlookers that each after image was stabbing at Kei but it was really Saratobi stabbing every few seconds from different directions. "NO ONE HURTS THE PACK WHEN I AM AROUND!"
You must use the entire pack to protect it completely

Kei tried to block the attacks, but he only managed to block a few of them, resulting in him taking quite a few hits himself. "ARRRAAAHHH!" Kei yelled out loudly as he grabbed at his zanpakuto with his good arm, the other being completely useless at this point, and thrusted it up into the air. "Suijin! Protect me!" He yelled, calling out to his zanpakuto's spirit. All of the hail that was falling seemed to be suddenly suspended in the air. It sat like that for almost twenty secends, than the air surrounding them was suddenly sucked away as Kei pulled in as much of the ice as possible, trying to hit Saratobi with as much of it as he could. Kei was not a close combat fighter, and he was taking a lot of damage. He now had to stop Saratobi, or at least get him away from him.

Saratobi was impaled by much of the ice. He jumped back several feet to get away from the ice that Kei was directing. He raised his good arm and pointed his zanpakuto towards Kei. Bakudo 30 Shitotsu Sansen Saratobi saw the three beams of light grab at Kei's midsection. He knew it wouldn't hold hold Kei for more than a few seconds, if even that long, but he knew he needed to buy time to get close again. Saratobi lept back towards Kei.
We are only using a portion of our power. See the rest of the pack and use them.
He can not see me still. He must be weak, or wants the pack to die

Kei had only mere seconds to react and break free. Once he did, he dropped his zanpakuto onto the ground once again, not being able to perform kido and hold it at the same time. He quickly raised his palm towards Saratobi. "Hado eighty-eight, Hiryugekizok...." He didn't have time to finish, Saratobi was already too close, if he used the kido it would have blasted both of them, and probably killed Saratobi for sure. Kei shunpo'd away, much slower than normal because of his injuries, leaving his zanpakuto behind by accident.

Saratobi landed preparing to have to try and dodge the coming kidou. But instead he saw Kei shunpo away. But slower than expected. Saratobi wasn't sure what was to come but he needed to retake the advantage and stop whatever Kei was planning or else he and his pack would be dead. He shunpo'd behind Kei and quickly turned using his zanpakuto to slash horizontally across Kei's back.
Your a hunter, not a bull.
The pack hunts better when working together
Saratobi saw the wolf again for a split second. He saw a little clearer what was on it's back. It was small and had four legs
(The other thing is a chameleon, like Renji's Baboon and Snake. It is not a hallow like Ichigo. BUt i reread the other posts and though I might know that others might think it was a hallow like Ichigo's)

Kei took the slash to the back and shunpo'd just after. Kei didn't even know that he was hit until after he stopped. "You're a lot stronger than what you first appeared, Saratobi-kun..." Kei said, the amount of injuries now quite apparent. Saratobi was able to impale him multiple times during his attack, Kei was even bleeding out the mouth. "I... really want to hurt you right now." Kei spat blood onto the ground as the hail stopped, and the rain slowed. "I spent my life training to be a kido master. I will show you why... some are forbidden." Kei picked up his zanpakuto, now back in it's normal state, and put it in it's sheath. "Hado eighty-eight... Hiryugekizokushintenraiho!" Kei had to take his bad arm, and hold it up with his good one to even use the spell. Saratobi would soon find himself looking at a massive blue ball of spiritual energy that will create a massive explosion once it comes in contact with it's target.
((If any of this seems like godmodding, let me know and I will fix it. It's not that I feel that any of it looks like it, but I sometimes do it without realizing it, and I apologize in advance))

You must use the whole pack to survive
You are not the Lone wolf
The pack must survive
Saratobi shunpo'd all the way back towards the wall looking away from the massive ball of energy just long enough to ensure it wasn't the wall Yuki was sitting on. When he reached the wall he jumped up just a little and used the wall to push himself under the ball. less than a second a later the ball of energy hit the wall. It took several seconds for the debris to hit the ground and for the smoke to clear.
Saratobi saw clearly what was on the back of the wolf now. It was a chameleon. Ahh... you can see me now. I know I am a strange thing to be a part of a pack of wolfs. But when we work together the pack becomes stealthier, stronger and quicker hunters. And when backed into a corner becomes more ferocious than any other beast. So will you use me as a true member of the pack
As the smoke cleared Saratobi was lying face down on the ground. His back and legs were bleeding badly. The pain intensified by the icy rain. He lifted his head and saw Kei using his one arm to hold the other up. It looks like we're in similar a situation. each with an arm basically out of commission Saratobi thought as he glanced over at his own left arm which he would have believed gone if he didn't see it there still attached to him.
He picked up his zanpakuto and dug it into the ground and leaned on it with his right arm to stand up. He pulled it from up from the ground as he stood. He swayed left and right a little bit unable to fully maintain his balance. "I AM NOT THE LONE WOLF." he yelled and began shunpoing towards Kei. He was slower than before due to the injuries. But it didn't matter. The person standing in front of him would feel the full wraith of the pack for trying to hurt it. "Ye lord! Mask of flesh and bone, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Truth and temperance, upon this sinless wall of dreams unleash but slightly the wrath of your claws. Hado 33, SÅkatsui." He sent a blue ball of energy out towards Kei. He didn't expect to hit, and if it did to not do much against the Kidou master. But that wasn't point. It was the smoke screen to buy the pack some time.
