Evie jumped back in surprise as the red mist swallowed everything around her. "Where was Zenny??" she thought frantically. The smoke made her cough and splutter. She spun around a couple times to take in her surrondings, but nothing was visible. "Hmph, using a kido we just learned against me!" she grumbled. But she wasn't about to five up. "If I keep walkingin one direction, eventually, I'll get out of this." she muttered. Folowing her words, she started running towards a random direction and arrived just outside the boundries of the smoke. She couldn't see Zenny anywhere, so she held her Zanpacto ready, in case he was going to jump out at her.

As the smoke began clearing, Zenny was surprised to see through the wisp and debris, that Evie was on the opposite side! From the position Zenny held, he was at least twelve feet behind the girl. Surely her defenses would be up because of not being able to see him but it was still an advantage. The boy quickly attempted to take advantage of the situation by charging the distance, his mouth still mumbling something indecipherable.. That is, until the last second. "-our own throat!" Now, at the last minute, it was clear what he'd took the time to do! From the boy's free right hand expanded a large, spiraling, orb. The ball of bright orange spiritual energy grew to about the size of a basketball, then was struck and immediately sprung forward towards the unsuspecting girl. Zenny had never stopped running as he performed the kido, continuing to close the distance between the two to worsen matters for the girl. Zenny's left hand was holding his Zanpakuto as usual, but he decided to sheathe it instead of attacking in such a situation. He had other plans and needed the extra hand! "Horin!" Yet again, the boy's voice rang out and the newly freed hand suddenly elicited another twin spiral tendril. This one whipped towards Evie's legs, while the first (and closer) one went for her torso area. His plan was to entangle her body and immobilize any further movement. If successful, what was to come next would surely be a shocking maneuver!

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ Moments after walking out of the clouds of smoke, she heard footsteps coming from behind her. She spun 180 degrees towards her right, holding her Zanpacto diagonally across her, expecting to block an attack. All she saw was a bright orange rope getting closer to her. "YAAHH!" she gasped in surprise. Evie realized Zenny had used another Kido spell. She tried backing up, but the tendrils were fast. Soon enough, she was wrapped up in it. The impact made her fall down on her butt, her hands stuck on her sides, the right one still clutching her Zanpacto. Struggling to get out was pointless, she knew. She pouted, a little frustrated that he had managed to trap her. The only way to escape this was to use another Kido. Evie's face suddenly brightened as she thought of an idea. With her hand on her Zanpacto, she tried to make it point towards Zenny. It was hard, since the spell had pretty much imbolized her. But with effort, she moved her arm slightly, managing to get her Zanpacto pointed towards Zenny's knees. In case he tried to attack her, she could still partially block it.

Both of the boy's hands were spread outwards, horizontally, so that the tendrils would constrict slightly. While Evie sat entangled, Zenny giggled lightly at her disposition on the ground. The small boy was quite proud of his tactics, knowing full well his plan would work.. But it wasn't done. Oh no, he had to rally in one more kido. Just one more to truly do his damage. A low, melancholy frown appeared on his face to replace the giggle, the boy dropping his head slightly. Both his hands suddenly sparked with yellowish electricity, the energy being focused about his finger tip. Within a seconds notice, the boy had risen his head and began to speak. Shouting almost! "Tsuzuri Raiden!" Zenny's hands let out one final spark before a large torrent of electricity came down the other kidos' length. Zenny had gotten quite creative with how he used his demon arts in sync between Bakudo and Hado. He had a feeling he could one day become known for how clever he was at the usage of this 'Shinigami Art Form' he'd grown so fond of. The spiraling tendrils were now electrically charged and conducting the second Kido through it's length. This high speed tactic was almost guaranteed to hit its captured target at this rate, and there didn't seem to be anything there that could stop it. "Hope this doesn't hurt her too bad! I'll feel so bad if she's too injured.."

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ Evie figured Zenny was probably going to attack her as soon as she was trapped. The only solution she could think of right now is to protect herself from getting hurt. As Zenny's finger began to spark, she immediately figured he was going to use some sort of lightning based kido. "Metal conducts electricity, so if i could get the charge to my Zanpacto, then it'll go through it instead of me," she thought quickly. Holding her Zanpcto in her right hand, shoved it upwards through the orange tendrils that the lightning was travelling through, then let go of the hilt, leaving the Zanpacto dangling. Then squeezing her eyes shut, she focused ot spreading the reiatsu around her, to minimize impact, in case the Hado did hit.

Zenny watched as his attacks shot down the ropes, now enveloping them completely. The entire set-up made it seem as though he was a power line leading to Evie! That was, until he noticed something on his line.. Her Zanpakuto. To be more precise, a metal blade blocking the path of his attack! To make matters worse, Zenny didn't know how to halt the kidō! As far as he knew his technique's effectivity would be cut, or at least dulled! Maybe something worse! "Dangit!" The boy commented aloud, watching the bright glowing stream as it channeled into the blade. Upon impact, a large Zap! sounded, and the kido (at the point of impact) exploded. The build-up of spiritual energy around Evie was a bit too high, and unstable at that point.. Zenny hadn't even expected the explosion to occur, and in such close range to her! The boy's hands suddenly dropped, the tendrils attached to them having dispersed. He'd almost completely dropped his guard, running towards the small cloud of black smoke. The boy carelessly threw himself into the mist, his left hand over his shoulder on the hilt that protruded from over his shoulder. His free hand was cringed, and held open; It was shaking slightly too. It seemed as though he'd also taken a small tinge of damage from the kidō he'd just performed. Not to mention a bit of fatigue from rallying four back to back, and then in unison. Even a growing prodigy had his limits~ "E-Evie..? Did the explosion hit ya'..? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to.. I mean.."

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ At the sound of the explosion, Evie's eyes flew open and widened. Sure, her Zanpacto did stop the lightning from hitting her, but the resulting explosion wasn't what she expected. The ropes wrapped around her had disappeared, leaving her free to move around, but her Zanpacto was lying around somewhere, having dropped onto the ground from the ropes. It would be safe to pick it up now, since the electricity had been grounded when it landed, but in the smoke from the explosion, she couldn't see anything. Her eyes stung from the dust flying everywhere, and her nose kept on smelling the acid burnt smell. She put hands on her cheek, checking for injuries. It seemed to be bruised. Looking at her arms, they were scratched up and a little borwned, but no huge cuts. A few moments later, she heard Zenny calling for her. He seemed to be a few feet in front of her. She could see a faint outline of him emerging in the smoke as it dispersed. Facing his direction, she focused her reiatsu towards her index fingers. "Shitotsu Sansen!" she yelled, and drew a tiangle with her finger. Pulling back a couple steps, the blades flew out from the points of the triangle, aimed towards Zenny.

"I mean.. I ju-.." The boy had attempted to continue speaking through the debris, but was suddenly struck with a concussive force. He found both of his shoulders pinned through and suddenly felt himself flying backwards in mid-air, flung by his friend's kido. Zenny hit the wall a good distance away, grimacing as he hung like a scarecrow sprawled against it. "Heh. Nice one.. I guess that's what I get for trying to check up on the opponent in the middle of a battle. Good thing this'is just a spar, or else I'd be dead at this point." Giggling nervously, he stared across the dojo at Evie. He was laughing at his own disposition, not knowing how he would get down at this point. His shoulders were hung back, and his torso was covered from the front like a half belt to nail him against the surface of the dojo wall. What now..?!

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ Evie heard a bang when Zenny slammed into something. The dust has cleared by now, and she could see Zenny on the wall. "Huh!" she grinned. "I didn't miss!" She allowed herself a moment to catch her breath. There was a couple near misses, and she didn't even notice how tired she was until now. She turned around, looking for her Zanpacto. It was on the ground a couple feet away. Picking it up, she headed back towards Zenny. She pointed it at his neck. "Do you surrender?" she questioned, with a mischievious glint in her eyes.

After landing on the ground Axius had a strange feeling in the pit of his gut. He lost the will to fight his opponent anymore. After noticing the fighting going right next to him the new opponents exited his blood unlike how his current opponent was. He sheathed his sword and held it in his left hand and walked back to the wall to watch the fight. He crossed his arm in a certain way and waited for the fight to end. "Can I call the winner?"

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ "Eh?" Evie turned her head away from Zenny, a little startled. She was still pointing her Zanpacto at him, but wasn't really watching what he was up to. With her free hand, she scratched the back of her head nervously. Her bow was becoming undone. "Sure, if I win, I'll fight you." she added a little hesitantly. This guy seemed different from Zenny, he looked more serious and kind of scary.

Nodding with a giggle, the boy closed his eyes and responded. At the same time he spoke, laughter found it's way between each word. "Heheh. Yeah. I surrender Evie~" Nonchalantly, the boy glanced at the other man, smiling a bit and then addressing him. "As you ken' see, she beat me fair and square! You can take a crack at'er next.." The small boy spoke ever so politely, but also felt a bit awry about the fellow he was speaking to. This guy wasn't very much like himself.. Though he'd yet to show personal characteristics, the aura produced ever so subtly by this fellow was one of a competitor. Someone who wanted to do combat.. Someone who actually enjoyed it. Zenny had encountered those like this, and they often proved themselves to be reckless, but skilled in there own art. This one didn't seem like the kido type.. Maybe a melee-based fighter..? He looked versatile enough to fit into that category. "B-But! Wait.. Gimme down first! I wanna watch!" He frantically began wavering both his arms, but with limited mobility it just looked like he was dancing on the wall. It was pretty cute, actually!

Axius gripped his Sword even harder in anticipation for a fight but he tried to keep calm. "I'm not mean I just know how to have fun so let the guy go and lets get started" He got off the wall and started to walk toward her. "So are we using bokken or are we sticking to our swords?"

The boy was about to continue his cute rant, but the kidō suddenly dispersed and he fell forward. Not knowing that the Bakudō would release so suddenly, he was off guard and found himself on his knees, head plowed down into the ground and with his butt in the air. The child let out a muffled 'Owwie!' then started moving, falling on his side and then grumbling to himself. He rubbed his forehead where he'd fell, but no blemish was visible. "Dangit! That hurt a bit.. Well, at least I'm down!" The boy decided to shrug this little happening off. He soon began shifting his head from left to right, eyes wide as he shot glances every which way. His bright, orange-hued eyes were gleaming lightly in the dojo's shining floor and really displayed there full nature in this fashion. The child seemed to be looking for something, but it soon became obvious when he started crawling towards sheet and tassel a good five or so yards behind Evie. Midway through Zenny's descent, his Zanpakuto was dropped from it's position on his back. He was happy to be reacquainted with the small Kodachi, taking a second to admire it's appearance; he always thought this thing was special, but never showed it or took the time to say anything about it. Maybe it was time he started showing some appreciation.. He did swing it all the time, and rumor was that some special Shinigami's Zanpakuto had there own spirits living within them, developed over time from contact with the user. Zenny stared at the lifeless thing for a good thirty seconds, caressing the emerald guard that complimented it's shimmering image so gracefully. The thing that snapped him out of this trance was a light humming in the back of his mind. No? Snoring... His Zanpakuto sounded like it was.. Snoring. The sound was barely audible, and not precise but he was sure he'd heard it. The thing was surely sleeping! Ecstatically, Zenny picked it up and began maneuvering it onto his back as usual. He giggled, his face slightly pinkish as he turned towards Evie and the other boy's direction. he stood across from them with a half smile on his face, eyes now dulled back to a half closed position.. Come to think of it, he was actually pretty tired. He'd rally'd kidō, sped around clashing blades, and had a pretty big day; he was entitled to a nap, or at least a break from fighting.. Maybe a walk. "U-Uhh.. Evie..? I'll catch you later! I wanna go take a break out somewhere! I'll catch up with ya' later on! Have fun!" Smiling sincerely, he wave din the girl's direction then proceeded to head for the exit.

█ ▌ﻫ Evie Tapioca ˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉˉ˚ Evie laughed and walked over to Zenny. She placed her hand on each of the blades holding him in place. They disapeared, leaving Zenny free to fall down. "It was fun sparring with you Zenny!" she smiled. "Let's meet up again soon. I'll be getting my Shikai training any day now!" She gave Zenny a quick hug and a noogie on the head, then walked towards her next opponent. Her Zanpacto was dangled loosely, held by her right hand. She was more nervous than usual and her stomach felt queasy. Giving a little cough, she murmured shyly, "Okay...let's stick to Zanpacto and kido."
