Without pausing Kenshin's left hand grabbed his iron sheath and used it to deflect the strike upwards, away from his body. At the same time Kenshin would spin to the right, away from her sword arm while also positioning himself directly in her left side blind spot, the worse possible position for any swordsman. "Hiten-mitsurugi style!"
Taking a single step froward Kenshin unleashed a devastating attack that consisted of 6 strikes. On strait up, down and to the right, up and to the left, own strait down, one up and to the right, and the final blow down and to the left. The blows were fired in such quick succession that the shape of a 6 pointed star could be seen in the after image of the blade, and all 6 strikes would feel as if they hit at the same time. It would take a 3rd seat to block this technique, however after using it Kenshin would be panting heavily, his Hakama wet with sweat. He had not yet had true shinigame training, and thus, attacks like that were hard on his still mostly mortal body.

As soon as his sword began to form the pattern that Medusa knew she couldn't beat she began to speak. "Bakudou #9 - Geki" A red light would surround Kenshin's body as she jumped back, he would be able to break this one again though it would take some effort. "I am no swordsmen, especially when faced with one as skilled as you." She sheathed her blade, and motioned for the door as she began to move to the Kido range.

Getting draped by the red light Kenshin would grunt for a moment before throwing the spell off, a small burst of Ki leaving his body as he did so. "... true... but can you keep up with my god speed?" With his eyes glowing and odd gold slightly, Kenshin gripped his sword with both hands and was about to launch another strike when he suddenly stopped, sheathing his blade. "... This one is sorry Medusa-dono... perhaps this one should focus on the use of Kido, since this one has no skill it it." Closing his eyes the air around kenshin calmed before he opened them, revealing that chocolate brown color again.

Medusa smiled, she saw something in him that she knew from her self. She escorted him to what looked like an archery range before turning to him. "Do you know how Kido works." Her tone was very motherly and teacher like as she smiled. Her Zanpakutou now sheathed was hidden on the back of her belt under her lab coat.

"... this one think this one understand the basic principals. It is the formation of energy in to a point and then the manipulating it through will or an incantation... or at least that is the short version. However, I have never been able to preform anything similar to kido." Kenshin's sakabato was again sheathed at his hip, his hands hanging down at his side relaxed.

She spoke with the same smooth voice as she held a hand up aimed at the target. "Say and do as I do." She took a deep breath and her riatsu began to show on her hand. "Oh ruler, mask of flesh and blood, all creations of the universe, fluttering of the wings, ye who bears the name of man! Scorching heat and disorder, evolve the transposition of the southern sea barrier. " She paused and focused, before finishing the spell. "Hadou #31 - Shakkahou!" A red blast of her Riatsu the size of a soccer ball flew out and struck the target in a high explosion that left it blackened.

Pointing his palm at the target after Medusa had attacked Kenshin closed his eyes. "... Oh ruler, mask of flesh and blood, all creations of the universe, fluttering of the wings, ye who bears the name of man! Scorching heat and disorder, evolve the transposition of the southern sea barrier..." Kenshin hand would begin to glow red, though his glow was a mush softer and small glow than Medusa had been. "Hadou 31... shakkahou." From his palm a blast the size of an apple would fire, only to sizzle out of existence a few meters from the target, though it was aimed dead center. ".... it appears that my ability with ranged attacks is just as I thought."

She put a hand on his shoulder and spoke with pure confidence in her voice. "Dont muscle it so much, just let your energy flow, and then fire when you fell as though it wants to move without you telling it to." She knew what this ones block was, he was over thinking it.

Holding up his hands again, Kenshin knew what his problem was. As he looked at the target, he didn't see the target, but the faces of those he killed. "... Oh ruler, mask of flesh and blood, all creations of the universe, fluttering of the wings, ye who bears the name of man! Scorching heat and disorder, evolve the transposition of the southern sea barrier..." Pausing while relaxing his body Kenshin tried to force the images of his past out of his vision. "Hadou 31, Shakkahou." The result would only be slightly better than before. This time the attack was the size of a soccer ball, yet is still held that gentler glow. When the attack was released it looked just as powerful as Medusa's, yet again it would fizzle out, stopping short of the target.
Pausing for a moment Kenshin would speak in a normal voice, except it sounded like he was talking to himself. "Their dead... all of them... Kenshin, you have to be able to do this to protect those you care about..." '... but who do I care about?'

She stood behind Kenshin her eyes showing the motherly sadness she felt for him as she placed her arms around him. Her right hand would find his arm and move to his wrist holding it up. "One more time." She was trying to help him now, she was going to put her riatsu around his to help it reach the target.

As Kenshin started to incantation again, Medusa would feel that There was more than enough riatsu in the attack to not only reach the target, but possibly hit with more force than hers had. She would however feel that the energy did not want to destroy, the reason behind the softer shade of red. It was like Kenshin's Riatsu did not want to hurt anybody.

She felt it, and she knew how to get him to fire with the intent to destroy. "If you want to protect your beliefs of peace, then you must be able to destroy the enemies that stand against them." It was much easier to fight for an Ideal like peace then for people like Yata and the Soul society.

For an instant, the energy in Kenshin's hands would flare before fading out entirely. "... This one made a vow long ago that this one would never become like that again... This one is sorry, but this one can not forget that vow." Lowering his hand Kenshin stepped away from Medusa. "... That vow is the reason why I carry a sakabatou with me instead of a true sword. The blade is an instrument to protect, and I will not taint that protection by killing like this." 'Was dieing really a good thing for me? When I was alive I could at least kill hollows.... but I'm not sure I can do that right now.'

Medusa sighed and put her hands on his shoulders. "You don't have to fight if you dont want to but this is something required of shinigami. And only you can decide what you fight for." She spoke softly and with her motherly tone, but there was a seriousness behind it.

Looking at Medusa, Kenshin could of sworn he saw his mother for a moment. "This one knows... but this one is not going to let that man out ever again. I will not be the Batosai!" For the first time speaking with Medusa, Kenshin had actually used the word "I" instead of "this one," something that only happened when his emotions were slipping, or he was reverting back to the batosai.
Giving a roar of rage Kenshin spin around, pointing his palm at the target as pure destructive Ki gathered in his hand, glowing with a crimson red, the color of blood. He wasn't looking at the people he had killed in teh past, he was looking at himself as the batosai, covered in blood that was not his own as he laughed. "Hadou 31, Shakkahou!" Without an incantation Kenshin unleashed a blast almost twice the size of a soccer ball, sending it streaking at the target dead center, obliterating it, and the two targets on either side of it. Kenshin's eyes were tinted with gold, the brown color fading away ever so slowly.
