As soon as Jack was done speaking, he slowly turned back around to face her, eyeing the bow in her hands.
"Once again your lust has gotten the best of you, Sephiroph. You'd better not die on me however. If you do, I promise you I'll find a way to make it miserable for you." Sephiroph heard the voice echo in his mind. He only smiled smugly.
"Die? You've got it all wrong, Shakunetsu. I don't plan on dying until I found out what happened with Raika. No way in Hell." Sephiroph said aloud and then crossed his arms over his chest.
"Hey Captain, I've a proposition for you. Allow me to draw my blade. Fight me fairly and if I die, it'll look like I attacked you. That is, if I die. If I don't. .. you buy me another drink. Sound fair enough?" He asked and slowly started to slide his hand into his shirt, taking hold of the hilt of his Zanpakuto. He tilted the blade upwards secretly so the metal was over his heart to try and guard it at the very least if she fired then instead of complying.
She had the upper hand at this point. He knew none of her powers other than the bolts but that was probably not even the half of it. She was also of the Captain rank so she was already much stronger. Yet he had confidence to at least stay alive.
"You may be in over your head but if you play your cards right, you won't die. This woman doesn't know of your abilities and keeping them hidden until the right moment may be the key. Release me but stay on defense until you find an opening. Use that special eye of yours if you have to." spoke Shakunetsu. Sephiroph couldn't have smiled wider. Those were kind words coming from her mouth and gave him a rush of confidence.
"Remind me to learn Bankai... it'd be a lot easier to use against fiesty women." He told Shakunetsu aloud with a sigh and then grew serious, staring Jack in the eyes without falter. His eyes seemed more piercing and dangerous than before, completely serious and deadly. They seemed to shine like melting ice and reflected his power.
"Let's do this. I'm ready for some more sake."
"We both know sooner or later you'll forget to..." ‐ – — ―‐ – — ―

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Interested*Stamina: Full * Health: Fresh * Zanpakuto: Unsealed, Shi Kai ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Jack smirked, “Fair enough! If you can survive me you deserve another drink.” Jack let the arrow fly, “Ya no Chi!”
As Jack flashed away using Shunpo she wondered how fast Sephiroph was. That bolt was fired from point blank range. Jack rarely missed at that distance. Of course the moment Sephoriph had made that foolish bet Jack have shifted her aim. Instead of aiming for his heart Jack sent the arrow to graze his shoulder. The dizziness should still affect him.
Chimamire no Yuki scowled, “This is not a game Mistress! You could have killed him in one shot! Why didn’t you?”
Jack landed on a tree branch, “He deserves at least a chance. He did dispose of the body.” Jack narrowed her eyes as she considered her foe, “I assure you; he will die.”
Chimamire no Yuki fell silent. Jack’s assurances were all she needed. Once Jack had a target in mind she took them down. This man was a mystery but, now that the Archer of Death had him in her sights she was dead.
Jack called out, “Who’s Raika? Friend? Family? Foe?” Jack cocked her head to the side and smirked, “Lover? Wife? Husband?”
Jack didn’t really expect an answer. She had only said the words to unsettle the man beneath her. Jack slide into a crouch as she switched her bow from her left hand to her right. Her right arm unbent and, her left hand pulled back the bow string. Jack let another blood colored arrow form and, took aim. She didn’t lose the bolt just yet.
Jack purposefully keep her voice light, “Whoever they are I’m willing to bet that they’re dead.” Jack sighed, “Isn't that a shame? You’ve lost someone.” Jack clicked her tongue, “I’ve never had anyone so I’m afraid I can’t sympathize. Sorry.”
That wasn’t strictly true. Jack had a family when she was alive in the World of the Living but she could barely remember them. As such she had no real attachment to them. The people she knew in the Seireitei were the people she had met in the Seireitei and the ones from before. The ones from before had ripped out her ability to love so that was that.
Jack didn’t say something stupid like “You’ll soon be joining them.” Due to the way the Cycle of Reincarnation worked the odds of Sephoriph seeing his loved ones again were slim to none.
So instead Jack said, “Soon you won’t have to worry about them anymore.” Then she let the arrow fly, “Ya no Chi!”
Jack sent this one to fly past the left side of his neck. It was designed to slice open the vein there.

However, it did chip his shoulder bone so it hurt like hell. He wouldn't give her the satisfaction of hearing him cry out from the pain and bit his tongue before he could. Later he would burn the wound closed as he'd done so many times so it didn't bleed as bad.
'Alright defense only for now... I can work with that. Her Zanpakuto is ranged it seems just as mine is. I'll study her movements and Shakunetsu should hold up long enough until I can find an opening. Shakunetsu can then absorb some of her spiritual energy as she fires at me..', he thought, taking the tactial route.
"Burn them all... Shakunetsu no kaze!" He shouted and pulled his blade from inside of his shirt. He immediately forced the blade apart into two halves and with a flick of each wrist, opened the newly formed fans the blade had become. The fabric seemed to shimmer and shine brightly under the light that slipped through the branches of the trees. It was definitely no ordinary material.
Sephiroph watched as Jack lept to a tree branch and listened to what she had to say. She was trying to take him down with words it seemed. However, this would not work on Sephiroph. He'd had too much of this happen to him in the past. Instead of faltering under the mental pain like many would, Sephiroph only smiled. "Raika? My dead wife. Focus more on the battle yeah?" He said nonchalantly and quickly closed one of his fans. He flipped it around and shouted "Kasai!"
This time the blade didn't even take a moment to light up, it immediately fired straight at Jack in the tree. Sephiroph wasted no time, bringing his open fan to his chest to cover his chest and flipping the other over so he could open it again. Once it was open he held it just below his face so he could still see her. He didn't know if his shot had hit her but it didn't matter. His aim was not for anything vital- yet it was for her hand. He wasn't serious enough to give it his all yet. The blade most definitely could have missed. "I can assure you that I won't go down as easy as you think. You're in for a long battle if so." He spoke and suddenly closed the fan below his face. He kept it in his right hand down to his side and kept the left one open covering his chest. His shoulder might slow him down a tad but he was sure he could dodge some of her more threatening bolts. While he did that he could let his left fan absorb some energy for his own attack. It would keep absorbing her energy every time she attacked unless she caught on to his trick and interrupted it.
"After this is all over and we're laughing about this over sake don't worry. Your secret is safe with me, beautiful." Sephiroph said with a wink. It wasn't like he'd say something after burning the body anyways.
'Sephiroph.. don't you dare let your lower appendage get the best of you.' Shakunetsu warned him strictly. This time Sephiroph didn't speak aloud.
'Don't worry love, I'll save that for after this pesky battle' He replied mentally and waited for the next shot to dodge.
When it did fire he grinned and, mixing the power of Shunpo and his own natural speed, he backed up and at the same time lifted the fan from his chest to his neck. The bolt hit the fan but did not puncture the material. Instead, it bounced off and hit the ground. The shiny material seemed to dull a bit and this was visible to a keen eye.
"Keep firing. Sooner or later you'll hit your mark or I'll hit mine."
(Ooc:Shorter post since he needs to charge his true power. I realized the quote thing. I kept accidentally erasing things. Like this ooc box!) "We both know sooner or later you'll forget to..." ‐ – — ―‐ – — ―

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Plotting*Stamina: Full * Health: Fresh * Zanpakuto: Unsealed, Shi Kai ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Jack scowled as her Ya no Chi bolt hit Sephoriph’s shield and disintegrated. She hadn’t thought he could move that fast. No wonder Central 46 didn’t just kill him. He was at least at the same level as a Lieutenant.
Jack couldn’t afford to set another arrow at him. He moved to damn fast and, Jack suspected that his shield wasn’t just a shield. Jack thought that while moving into another tree. Sephoriph’s attack had burned the branch she was on. If there was on thing Jack hated it was fire. Well, Jack really hated heat but, whatever.
Jack landed and asked a question, “Why aren’t you running? For that matter why aren’t you annoyed? I mean, you did just dispose of the evidence of my actions. I repaid you by attacking you. Most people would be annoyed by that.”
Jack was stalling for time. Something was off about the shield that Sephiroph’s fans created. She couldn’t attack unless she was 100 percent sure that it would hit. The easiest way to make that happen was to get Sephiroph to drop his guard. That might be difficult; Jack’s comment about Raiki hadn’t affected him at all.
Jack bent her knees and, almost sat on the heels of her feet as she asked another question, “Seriously, why aren’t you running? Last I checked I am a Captain. I haven’t been a Captain for very long and, I’m not very good at it. Still, two words and, you will be dead.”
In fact, that was a good idea. Two words and this nuisance would be dealt with. Then Jack would have to explain to Head-Captain Niwa her reason for using Ban Kai in the Rukon. That might be more hassle than it was worth. It wasn’t like Jack could tell him that she was trying to cover up murder. However the odds of Sephiroph knowing that were small. Jack didn’t think he would call her bluff. Then again, she had never been good a Poker. Her game was Spades.
Jack pointed out, “In fact you seem amused by all of this. Why is that?”
Then it clicked and Jack felt her eyes go wide. He thought that he could, well not win, but survive. Jack had agreed that if Sephiroph survive she would buy him a drink. He was viewing this as foreplay.
Jack mutter the next sentence softly; unsure if he would hear, “Why, you stupid, crazy masochist! You want me to beat you up. My threat turned you on!”
Chimamire no Yuki scowled again, “This doesn’t change anything. He still needs to die.”
Jack was quick to assure her Zanpakutō, “I know, I know! And he will. It’s just a shame I never got to sleep with him.
Chimamire no Yuki pointed out, “You never slept with Tanaka and, you had no qualms about killing him.”
Jack scowled, “That was different and you know it!”
The Zanpakutō lapsed in to silence while Jack smiled again, “I’m still going to kill you. Just because you won’t tell anyone doesn’t mean you won’t try to blackmail me.” Jack paused before pointing out, “That means you really should be running.”
If Sephiroph started running he would turn his back to her and, Jack would have a shot. It was a plan Jack wasn’t sure would work. Still it was the only plan she had so she attempted to apply it.

His eyes followed her to the other tree and never left her. His keen eye sight could be his key to staying alive.
Sephiroph shrugged at her question and put on a confident grin. "Why aren't I running? Hmm. Good question. I honestly don't think you're gonna kill me, that's why. That and I am far too intrigued by you. Wonder how fire and ice mix in the bedroom.." He pondered aloud, thinking of how great it would probably be. Though, he feared that would most definitely not happen at this point seeing as she wanted to kill him. Oh well, at least he got a great fight out of it.
Sephiroph stayed focused even when answering her questions, staring her and her bow down with a taunting glare. He almost wanted her to fire but then again he was so close to building up his own attack that it would do him good for her to keep stalling.
Yet this woman was a Captain. She had to have known Bankai. He'd been up against a few Bankai attacks before but they were not fully developed. Jack would have to have an incredible Bankai. He wanted to see it but not during this battle. Not when he'd already had a few drinks.
"I am most definitely amused! This is a lot of fun in fact. I seem to fancy you and your power. It's so..." Sephiroph paused and flicked his wrist so he was fanning himself just a bit with his Zanpakuto, blowing some of his blonde hair back. "Sensual? No. That wouldn't be the word. More like delicious."
Sephiroph fanned himself once more but then got an idea. She had no idea what his attacks would be as of yet so he could fool with her a bit. "Ya' know... you might not wanna drop your guard with all of these questions. Who says my fan has to be closed to fire?" He asked and suddenly closed his left eye only. "Ah and before this gets serious... I think I'll use one of my own secrets." Sephiroph lifted the hand that was holding his closed fan and covered his eye, still covering himself with the fan acting as a shield. He let out a pained grunt just as before but didn't falter though the pain seemed to effect him even more than the bolt to the shoulder had. He dropped his hand back to his side and opened his eye.
The pupil of his eye turned red while the rest of his eye faded to a grey color like metal. A red dot hit wherever his eye went and soon landed on her where her chest was; like a red-eye dot on a rifle.
"Shh. You've gotta keep this quiet. It can be a part of our little affair." He muttered just loud enough for her to hear. He squeezed his fan down by his side tight and willed it to finish collecting spiritual pressure. Whenever this would happen he'd hopefully have a much higher chance. He would only need a few more moments. But for now...
Sephiroph moved quick; lifting the fan at his side up and opening it so it took the place of the one that was already opened. The one already open closed and was flipped around in the blink of an eye; aiming where his little red dot rested on her chest and quickly firing off another flaming bolt, this one much faster than the other now that his power was building.
As soon as this was done he moved the fan he'd just fired back down to his side in place of the open one so it could serve the same purpose.
'Sephiroph, I'm almost done collecting spiritual pressure. I suggest ending this fast.' Shakunetsu warned him.
'Damn.. I'm just getting started.' ((OOC: Hope that made sense.. it did in my head. Fixed my laptop so no more screw ups I believe.))

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Resigned*Stamina: Full * Health: Fresh * Zanpakuto: Unsealed, Shi Kai ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Sephiroph was bluffing. Jack could taste the bluff. His fan needed to be closed. However he was stalling for time. His Zanpakutō must have been one of those that needed time to charge. Jack was officially out of time and options.
Then there was that eye of his. Jack wasn’t a liar; it sent delicious shivers all up and down her spine. Sephiroph was Division Three material if she ever saw one. Jack did need a Lieutenant; the last one had quit because of Jack’s lack of shame. That would be a way to keep him close.
Jack gave her head a shake. What was she thinking? The man in front of her needed to die. Despite what he thought Jack would kill him. She didn’t want to kill him but there was simply no choice.
Jack pushed off of the tree branch and flipped over the man beneath her. She landed right behind him. In a matter of breathes She had her bowstring pulled back. She was aiming right for the back of his neck.
Jack hissed “Ya no Chi!”
Jack sent three bolts at Sephiroph’s neck. From the time she left her landing place to the time the bolts flew from her bow was maybe two seconds. If Sephiroph managed to survive this she owed him a drink.
Then she would have to start planning on how to keep him close for the rest of her life. Honestly making him her Lieutenant was probably the best bet. Jack could tell the Head-Captain and Central 46 that she had picked him up in Rukon and, that he was everything she was looking for.
Of course Jack was getting a little ahead of herself. Sephiroph was dead. There was no way he had survived Jack’s barrage. Jack was 99.9 percent sure that he was dead.
Jack told her Zanpakutō, “It’s done. Are you happy now?
Chimamire no Yuki muttered, “Yes. Let’s go home.”
Jack sighed, “Yes, let’s.” Jack sighed again, “It’s a damn shame.” Jack nodded her head briefly in respect, “Good bye Sephoriph.”
Jack started to walk away. She resisted the urge to seal her Zanpakutō. It was better to be safe than sorry.

Called Shakunetsu in Sephiroph's mind just as Jack leaped behind him and drew her bow. Time felt like it slowed to a stop for him; his reflexes heightening near their peak and his entire body filling with half of the power his Zanpakuto had absorbed.
He closed his eyes for a moment to let it all in but then found himself somewhere else when he opened them. Surrounded by grass in a closed off place with a giant tree in the middle. The wind blew through his blonde hair faintly and the air was warm. Sitting at the base of the tree a few feet away sat a woman with grey hair that fell to her waist but was now blowing in the wind just as his was.
'Sorry Sephiroph. I felt the need to speak with you at the moment. I must tell you firstly that if you screw up now, you most certainly will die. You've pulled through the worst before but there's simply no way you can survive a fatal wound that bad. So, if this happens, this is my farewell. Our time together has hit its bumps but you have been a wonderful suitor for my power despite having only discovered a bit of it.' The woman started, staring off into the distance rather than at him.
Sephiroph walked closer to her until he was right next to her. He slowly got down onto his knees and then sat down so their shoulders were touching.
'I understand, Shakunetsu. I promise you, however,..' Sephiroph started to speak but Shakunetsu cut him off, lifting a small hand and placing a dainty finger to his lips to shush him.
'Silence, Sephiroph. I already know you won't let me down.' Shakunetsu said in a calm, positive voice to him. She looked to him and though she did not smile, her eyes gave off a sort of happiness only a smile could bring. 'You've come so far and I'm always hard on you but the discipline sets you straight. I know with all of my being you- no- we can do this.
With that, the dream-like world disappeared and reality took hold.
"...Tatsumaki." Sephiroph whispered just before Jack fired the arrows. The arrows hit- but not their mark. With newly heightened speed and mentality, Sephiroph managed to be fast enough for the bolts to miss his neck- yet not him completely.
The bolts entered the same shoulder one had chipped earlier but Sephiroph made sure to topple over onto his back for show so she would think they hit their mark. However, she would know soon they had missed. He would not give her the time to have second thoughts on whether or not he was alive. As he lay on the ground he moved both of his hands holding fans behind his back and placed them together.
They merged together and began to shift and shape beneath him. Before they could form what they were working at, Sephiroph used Shunpo to quickly get to his feet and ran straight at her at about ten times the speed he'd previously used to dodge her attacks. He pulled what the two fans were forming in front of him- which was now one giant copy of the smaller fans. The end of the fan was engulfed in flames that licked the air like wildfire.
He was quick to release the fan before he reached her using his Shunpo, throwing the fan towards her like a boomerang. The fan flew at her and the raging heat caused by the flames on the fan caused an updraft creating a whirlwind that followed the fan on its path to her. The wind was so fast and strong that it ripped the bark off nearby trees, skinning them bare and cutting through some like butter- being hit by the 'natural' disaster could cause serious damage.
Sephiroph's injured arm now hung at his side, seemingly useless at this point. Unfortunately, this attack left him defenseless until his fan hit its mark or he ordered it back. It could only hit once until he had to charge the attack again since it was a fairly underdeveloped attack but the attack was strong enough to make this fact not such a big deal.
(Ooc: Let me know if this makes no sense or seems like god modding in any aspect whatsoever. It's difficult being at such a lower rank sometimes what with making things fair haha. Especially when using a new character.) "We both know sooner or later you'll forget to..."

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Tired*Stamina: Tired * Health: Burns on back * Zanpakuto: Sealed ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Jack could feel the heat. She turned to look and saw a spinning inferno coming at her. Her eyes got wide. She wanted to run but, she was stuck; physical trapped do to the memories racing though her mind. Most of them consisted of that summer. Jack hated summer and, she hated hit.
Just as the fan was about to make contact Chimamire no Yuki screamed, “MOVE JACK!”
Jack tossed herself to the side and somersaulted away from the fire. However she had remained stationary for too long. The blaze managed to slightly burn her back. Jack crashed into a tree and, she took a moment just to breath.
Somehow Sephiroph had managed to avoid her arrows. Jack looked at him from the corner of her eyes. No, he hadn’t avoided her arrows; he had just avoid death.
Jack could kill him. She knew she could. However she couldn’t kill him now. Those memories always left her drained. Beside he baffled her. Sephiroph also impressed her. She wanted to get to know him better. If it was necessary she could kill him later tonight.
Jack pushed herself to shaky feet, “I owe you a drink.” Jack glared at him, “I have questions for you. You will answer them all honestly or you will regret it.”
Jack feel back to her knees. She scowled; her threat had just vanished. There was no way she scared him now. That was when she realized that the back of her uniform jacket had burned and, the whole thing was falling off. Jack scowled again and, ripped it off to reveal her pink bandeau bra. Jack got up, staggered to a relatively intact tree and, sat back down with her back to the tree.
Jack informed the man who was no longer her enemy, “Given me a minute to find my legs and then we’ll head back to the Buchi Neko.” There as a question in Jack’s blue eyes, “You do remember the way back, correct!”
Depending of the answers to her questions Jack had plans to make the man in front of her, her Lieutenant. It would be tricky. She would have to come up with an explanation to give the Head-Captain and Central 46. In addition the odds were that Sephiroph would never trust her. That might affect the dynamics of the relationship in a negative fashion.
Jack didn’t want a Lieutenant that got lost easily. Chimamire no Yuki hummed her approval at that thought. Then the Zanpakutō hummed her approval at making Sephiroph the Lieutenant Division. Neither of them had decent enough reasons to give the stranger the position. However he had given Jack a challenge and, it would keep him close.
Jack muttered to herself, “This is going to be fun. Lots and lots of fun.” The sarcasm was clearly evident.
With a sigh Jack gave her bow a flick to seal her Zanpakutō. There was another sigh as she returned it to the sheath on her back. She was tired and, she really want to get laid.
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Final thoughts: The odds of Sephiroph sleeping wiht me now are very low. Unless he really is a masochist.

The strength Shakunetsu had given him played a role in that- but his own strength and determination outweighed it in a way. His confidence in himself brought him up even as she was shooting him down.
Seeing Jack hit the tree and then try to stand effected Sephiroph in a way he couldn't explain. It was strange. The woman had just tried to kill him after he had helped her take down and conceal Tanaka. Yet he wanted to help her.
Sephiroph began to walk to her just as his large fan made its way back to him like a boomerang. He caught it easily and it started to glow, shifting back into the original blade's form so he could sheathe it. When he reached her, he held out his good hand for her and grinned a little. "You do owe me a drink. I do not owe you answers but I shall comply anyways. You were quite the amazing opponent and I've no doubt you can still kill me. Though, I do believe we are past such things. At least- I hope." His grin turned into a rather sheepish smile but he tried to hide it with a false cocky grin after.
"Now M'lady... where to? We could always pick up where we left off... or start anew?" He asked, still holding his open palm to her to see if she would take it. He was still on edge around her and wasn't foolish enough to let down his guard yet but seemed to believe she wouldn't attack him again. Sephiroph trusted nobody in this world or the next- so that was a long shot. But he would accept her being docile for now.
'After all of this you're going to ask something like that? Sephiroph.. sometimes I think you take too many whacks to the head.' Shakunetsu told him in a disapproving manner.
'I can't help it. She's quite brilliant and you know that. You've seen her power. Power excites me.'
'Whatever will I do with you...' She sighed and he almost laughed aloud.
'Don't worry, love. You're still my one and only.'
"Ah. Hey Cap'n. I've a way of stopping that burn from hurting and such if you'd like me to help. Fire is kind of my specialty. Being burned comes with the job- hence the know-how on curing burns. I'm sure I'd be one charred mess if not for this. Not attractive in the slightest." Sephiroph wrinkled his nose and frowned just a tad. "I'd be such a burned marshmallow... Not tasty in the slightest." He then shuddered thinking about this and silently thanked whatever God or Spirit he could for his otherwise clean and unscathed (except for under his clothes) body.
(Ooc: Sorry short but not much to say yet.) "We both know sooner or later you'll forget to..."

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Tired*Stamina: Tired * Health: Burns on back * Zanpakuto: Sealed ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Jack considered the hand before sighing and, letting Sephiroph help her to her feet. She staggered for a moment before finding her balancing. Then she headed in the direction of the Buchi Neko. She chose to walk in front of Sephiroph so that way he would have to worry about having his back to her.
Jack began her questions with what she hoped was the most innocent question, “First question, have you already been a masochist or did it happen over time.”
The boy had one of the oddest cases of masochism Jack had ever seen. He liked pain and tempting fate but, he didn’t like just taking it. He had to fight for every inch of pain. He had to feel like he was in control.
Most of masochists that Jack had met also possessed submissive tendencies. Jack looked at the blonde boy over her shoulder. Unless she missed her mark Sephiroph was a switch that tended to dominate. He only really submitted for a brief change of pace. Jack had seen that before; it was the added masochism that caused her to pause.
Of course there was a chance that the boy hadn’t even noticed he liked pain. He might have attributed it to an attraction to power. Jack looked ahead again. He probably did have an attraction to power but, he also like pain.
People were rarely straight forward. Most were like puzzles; each person a different puzzle. A person almost never saw all of the pieces that made their personal puzzle. They usually saw the whole picture. It took an outsider to see the individual pieces. Jack was almost always an outsider and, she was good at puzzles. She planned to decrypt the puzzle that was Sephiroph. It would bother her until she did.
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Final thoughts: Let's see if I can figure it out.

He didn't even try to avert his eyes; watching her every curve move with each step. He was so focused on her, in fact, that he almost missed her question. The question made him smirk a little to himself and he walked a little closer to her, stuffing his hands into his pockets while he walked.
"I've always been a masochist, darlin'. It has just gotten worse over time. I feel like a little is not enough. I like fighting for control and power- though you seem to already know that seeing how you knew I was a masochist already." Sephiroph explained. He'd not always actually had these tendencies. When he had been married to Raika he was soft and gentle- a true gentleman. Yet once she was gone he'd changed drastically from who he'd once been.
"What about you? I can't figure you out too much yet.. I'd sure as hell like to. What are you like? Passive or aggressive? Masochist or gentle?" He stepped even closer to her so his lips were near her neck, having to bend down slightly because of his towering height.
"Submissive or dominant?" He whispered the question so his heated breath would touch her neck and then backed up away from her, lifting his arms so his hands were resting behind his head lazily. His shirt lifted a bit when he did so and his muscular torso was exposed. The muscles seemed to flex as he had moved his arms and it was like he'd done this on purpose. Of course this would be of no surprise.
Despite the fact he was asking only sexual questions and was back to his normal smirking self, he truly did wish to figure this woman out. It was like a little game to him- one he wanted to win at all costs. Especially since he normally took so much time on people. At least this person was actually interesting unlike most people he'd met lately. Nobody could spark his creativity and even lust like a good challenger. That fight had been difficult and he had been hurt but he was nowhere near being worn out. He could still go for some time with Jack though after what they'd just been through, he didn't think Jack would want to do anything like he was thinking. After all, she had just tried to kill him.
Yet she was a mystery. A mystery that possibly wanted some of the same things Sephiroph did and even more. A mystery he'd like to work on top of- and, in a totally different situation- under..

] ╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Cheerful*Stamina: Tired * Health: Burns on back * Zanpakuto: Sealed ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Jack smirked at Sephiroph’s attempt to play her. It wouldn’t work on her. She knew every trick in the book and, had ways to counter them all. Of course she wouldn’t tell the boy that; it would ruin the game.
Instead she turned to consider him as she answered his question, “Um.” Jack placed a finger against her lips, “For you I think I am dominant. I like consent to break someone. I like fighting them for every inch of power and, taking it away from them. Then when they submit I either punish them for misbehaving or cherish them for submitting so beautifully. Or both; depending on my partner and the situation.” Jack shrugged, “For someone else, who knows?”
Jack was an odd creature. She was capable of reading a person and, discovering their kinks and preferences. Then she was capable of molding herself to fit what they wanted. As a result she wasn’t truly dominant or submissive. In fact she was one of the most versatile switches in the Seireitei. Of course she could do vanilla too.
Jack turned and began walking again, “Next question: why did you burn the body? You didn’t know him and you still don’t know me. What if he was an innocent? What if I’m a monster in human guise? Do you always side with the pretty girl?”
Little by little Jack would discover Sephiroph’s motives. After discovering why he burned the body Jack would figure out why he didn’t run. Then she would discover why he didn’t kill her when he had the chance. Finally she would discover why he still wanted to sleep with her.
Not that Jack minded that. In fact she rather suspected that it was his attraction to power that made him flirt with her. Jack could be power. She just needed to determine what this man was first.
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Final thoughts: Quite a mystery

Malphite "Why bother resisting?" ‐ – — ―‐ – — ―‐ – — ―‐ – — ― ⌠♖ⓢephiroph ⓑazyli♖⌡ ♕No Position|Shinigami |No Division|♛ ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ мσσ∂: Focused ۞ нєαℓтн: 72/100 ۞ мєηтαℓ ѕтαтє: Normal ۞ ¢σмραηу: Jack Mallory ۞ zαηραкυтσ: Sealed ۞ тнσυgнтѕ: 'She seems to have me all figured out...' ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄ `•.¸¸.•´´¯`•• .¸¸.•´¯`•.•●•۰• ••.•´¯`•.•• ••.•´¯`•.•
Sephiroph thought over her answer for a few moments in his head, weighing it against his own. A dominant woman. Those were quite hard to come by these days and it excited him to be in the presence of one who could hold their own. "Heh. Punishing for misbehaving? We'd have a hell of a time if we were to get in such an ordeal. I'm not exactly one to listen well on most days." he said with a wide, toothy grin.
Sephiroph was, of course, able to follow orders; yet he didn't always like doing so. Especially not when he wanted to be overpowering over someone. Sure he'd sometimes switch and let somebody take control but he saw no fun in that unless they were good at what they were doing. He had a feeling she was good at such.
"Well, for one- I burned the body because I'm technically an accomplice and I'm betting they could trace the kido I used back to me in some way. The Seireitei always finds a way. Two- The real reason at the time- is because Shakunetsu said to. I've learned not doing what she says gets me in deep damnation." Sephiroph shuddered visibly at the thought, remembering all the times he could have listened and ended up paying the price for it. She was maybe the one woman he would listen to without question for the most part.
"As for being innocent, by the way your comrades and patrons in the bar acted when he walked in, I'm sure he's far from being so. And no, sometimes it's a handsome boy." He said with a soft snicker to himself, letting his arms fall back down to his sides as he strolled. His shoulder still hurt like hell but he'd get over it. He had been through much worse and healing this was no problem for a friend of his. Still- blood dripped onto the ground as he walked. Though he tried not to let it leave a trail, wiping his feet upon it to make it blend in with the dirt.
"Any more questions love? I'm an open book." Sephiroph lied. He was most certainly not an open book about most. He only spoke as though nothing mattered and he was carefree but there were many things he would not share. Not with the woman in front of him or anybody else for that matter. These questions were just quite simple and easy to answer so he did not mind them. Besides, anything that would get him a few steps closer to her mystery he was willing to do.
He could tell she would be one tough nut to crack but still wanted to see what secrets and mysteries lie inside awaiting him. It was a habit he'd developed to find out things about people, especially lately when he wanted so badly to get into the Gotei Thirteen. Any information could be his ticket in if he played his cards right. Then again, he was technically a traitor and a deserter. They could have him killed at any time if they wanted to. It may have been best to lay low rather than do what he'd been doing.

╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Location: Rukon * Company: Sephiroph Bazyli * Mood: Cheerful*Stamina: Tired * Health: Burns on back * Zanpakuto: Sealed ╚═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝ Chimamire no Yuki was shocked, “He listens to his Zanpakutō! I wish you would listen to me. That would make my job easier.”
Jack elected to ignore that as she continued her questioning, “Why didn’t you run when I started to attack you. That would be the smartest thing to have done. In fact I find it strange that of all the motions you pick you choose amusement. Annoyance, fear, anger, all make sense for that situation. So do determination, outrage, shock or, a mixture of any of those emotions. Instead it seemed to me that you where amused. Why?.” Jack paused to look at Sephiroph, “At the time I thought you might have seen it as a form of foreplay. Was I right?”
Then Jack noticed that he was trying to hid a blood trail. Jack bent one knee and tore of a strip of her left pant leg. Then she walked over to Sephiroph and, placed a gentle but firm hand on his chest to force him to stand still. Jack quickly and expertly use the material from her pant leg to staunch the blood flow. It still needed medical attention but, he wouldn’t bleed out anytime soon.
Jack let out a laugh, “If this keeps up you’ll have me undressed before we reached the Buchi Neko!”
The walk back was taking much longer than the walk out. For one thing they were walking instead of using Shunpo. For another Jack wanted to go slow so that way she had more time to get answers to her questions.
╔═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗ Final thoughts: I will figure this out.

It came so easily to him that it was a bit strange- as if he'd rehearsed it or had said it a million times before. "Honestly I could have cared less that you turned on me like that. See, if you knew me, you'd realize I've nothing to lose in this world. It's how I like to live even though I don't choose it to be that way. The way I see it, you never get stronger until you look death right in the eye and say 'Bite me'. It doesn't help that my attraction to that lovely strength of yours had me practically salivating at the mouth." Sephiroph stated and then put on a bit of a surprised expression when she suddenly walked to him.
Clenching his jaw as her hand touched his chest, he felt the urge to put his own hands on her- yet did not somehow. As she tore her pant leg, he tried not to let his signature smirk cross his lips again, biting his lower lip to do so. The lip biting was also thanks to the small jolt of pain he received as she covered the wound, though it didn't last too long.
"Well I'll be damned. You're just the master at everything, aren't ya', Cap'n?" He asked, a sort of amused twinkle in his otherwise piercing eyes. His left iris still remained grey and clouded but the red dot had disappeared and left his normal black pupil. He'd forgotten to hide the eye like he normally did in the midst of their talking.
"That can most definitely be arranged, my dear." Sephiroph responded to her retort about getting undressed. There was truly no end to his flirtatious ways. If it'd been up to him, he'd have pinned her to the tree she'd hidden in or in the forest during their pursuit and see where things went from there. However, he didn't like taking advantage of people in more serious ways like that would have been. It could have been interpreted in many different ways that may not have gone well for him. He always made sure he had permission.
This was the strange thing about him. He loved force and dominance but was actually quite the gentleman. He'd never take advantage of one who did not completely agree to what he was doing. Despite the way he acted like he would do what he wished to anybody, he would most certainly not back that up.
(Ooc: It's fine. Mine are the same way.) "We both know sooner or later you'll forget to..."
