(( Lol Yua: Doggy! xD ))(( She hasn't gotten her Shikai yet, so I'm pretty sure she doesn't know what she has. ))
"Yua, unseated," the girl said simply. She took Rios' hand and then put her arm back down by her side. A slight smile was the response of greeting - Yua had a hard time understanding how too react to certain things. Then her eyes glanced towards a figure walking closer. She didn't tense up, but remained quiet and still. The person had gotten Rios' attention, and then looked towards Yua.
"Yes," the raven hair girl replied, and paused on the second question. She didn't know her element yet. But because the person continued to talk - he didn't seem to mind too much that she didn't reply, and so didn't bother to answer. Yua didn't like to talk much, only enough for others to understand what she is saying.
Yua backed up as the person announced that they would have a fight. Also, because the man seemed to be getting ready for something. It was a pre-caution habit that the girl had - this lifetime and the last. Elements, Yua quickly glanced at Rios' arm. She understood a bit of what they meant but she still wasn't sure about hers. She did know she was willing to train when-ever possible so she didn't want to turn down the invitation. The man who had just come had a different frequency of sound to Yua than Rios' had. She patted her left ear with her palm as if the noise was bothering her.
The man in the odd colored suit just explained what he wears does. Yua wondered if it was like strapping yourself to cement blocks and trying to outrun noise. Old method? Yua wondered as she looked at her hands. She should really try some weights next time. Maybe she could ask the person about something that related to her...small size.

Rios smiled as Yua exchanged the handshake. When Cresan tapped him he turned and then had a blank face. "Well I don't know do you always have to use the big words that can mean multiple things? And it's primarly up to the young lady if she wants to be involved in a fight between two experienced fighters." He then turned back to Yua and smiled again. "Well Yua what do you say, want to fight against us?" Rios had a very warming and gentle smile as his tail slightly wagged behind him.

Cresan smiled at Rios' comment on his vocabulary, "Sorry, it's normal for me to use higher vocabulary... Oh, there I go again!" He turned his head to Yua, who was patting her ear, face slightly contorted. "Are you ok? Well, if you want to find your element, you must meet your Zanpakutou Spirit. It is the essence of all of your powers, and knowing its name will allow you to release your zanpakutou. Training helps with meeting your Spirit. I found mine in a fight where I was losing badly... But that isn't the only way, necessarily."
He brought himself to sit down, as much as he wanted to fight. He had to wait for Yua. He smiled at the fact that he could possibly be helpful to a beginner shinigami. Taking charge like this was all a part of the job of third-in-command. A laugh thrust itself out of Cresan, something that hadn't happened since his parents were alive. In the soundtrack of old memories, he felt overwhelmingly happy that he was running to his goal, and not crawling.
He leaned back into the grass in his laugh, and said through a shaking voice, "So... What do you guys say? Yua, I can help you... Just tell me; when do you feel helpless, like there's something inside of you that wants to come out? You feel like it can give you strength, but you don't know how to let it free... Essentially, this is your zanpakutou trying to call to you. It wants to help you. If you see it that way, then shikai will become clear. Release of shikai is really a release of yourself."
He bit his lip, hoping that he hadn't gone right over her head... He tried as hard as he could to convey his meaning without becoming overly profound.

(( woo..PSATs >.<))
"Yes, understood," Yua had somewhat knew what Cresan had said first, and was comfirmed now. Eventually, the noise will dissapear when she has gotten used to it - the frequencies being a reason why Yua never stayed around too many people, especially those that held higher reiatsu than she was usually used to. A losing battle...Yua blinked at those words. Cresan found his spirit in battle where he had a dis-advantage. Yet, Yua has had those kind of battles, but what she felt was different. Indeed, the feeling of helplessness sent this whisper of strength.
But also scorn.
Obviously, the 'spirit' that resided in Yua's zanpakuto did want to help, but it seems as if it did not show any respect for her. Like when she dreamt, she walked on a liquid metal that showed blossoming trees on the other side - the moon was behind the foliage. That was what she walked on and what she looked up at was the darkness. Something would grab her legs and Yua would wake up.
This thought lingered a bit more than it did to Yua than other ones. But, conviently she was going to have training to keep herself busy for a while.
"Perhaps we should commence the fight?" The girl replied. The world was a simple picture to her, and it was just about to get more complex.

Sojiro took a seat among the bamboo and the tree again. Maybe Ezra needed him to sit here and absorb those things... Maybe it would help him further himself in learning his name... Sojiro would have to trust the vice in order to get stronger. So...
As he sat and started to meditate again, he cracked his eye open a bit and watched the spores coming to him. He breathed and closed his eyes. After the large breath, he started to meditate...
It was easier this time. Was it the spores' fault? What kind of effect did they have on his shinigami body that made his meditation more tolerable?
He pushed the thoughts from his mind, and let himself be taken by the meditation.

Rios smiled some more then jumped back ten feet before making a ready stance. "So who wants to start? I'm already in my shikai state so I'll just even out the play field." At that the metal around his arms turned into a buster sword that he put at the ready. "There we go now we can fight without advantages."

Sojiro's ears piqued up. He heard that Rios was challenging people. He might as well participate, right? He jumped up, and walked up in front of him. "Heh, Shikai ain't got nothing on this. I've been meditation for a while, so I'm a little shaky... I think I could still entertain you though..."
Sojiro tapped his sheathed katana's handle.

Cresan lept up from his position on the ground, and approached Sojiro. "Four people! This is going to be fun! Yua, don't worry about your shikai, it'll find you. Just be as open as you possibly can be, and it'll happen..." He snapped his fingers, "Just like that. Now, for my shikai."
He stood back form the group and called, "Rage through the Storm, Kasui Aikouka Otouto no Hisakata!"
Drawing his blade, reiatsu flared around him as if his zanpakutou had produced a storm, but just as quickly as it came, it wrapped around Kasui Aikouka and settled into the blade. When the air cleared, Cresan's blade was a beautiful sapphire blue. "Okay, I'm ready guys! Do your best!"
Quickly focusing himself, Cresan yelled out one more command: "Isis' Gift! Mizukusoodou no kasui!" Suddenly, the air became utterly dry and water materialized around Kasui Aikouka, rotating as if it gave off a magnetic pulse designed only for water.

Sojiro gave him an odd look. Was everyone going to shikai? It made him mad that he didn't have his yet, but no matter. He dropped low to the ground and grabbed his sheath with his left hand. With his right hand, he let it hover over the blades handle. His first draw would be his strongest move, and he wouldn't use it until someone attacked him first...

While Sojiro was preparing to fight, he blanked out. For a second, he didn't know where he was. Then he saw it. A bamboo grove appeared around him. It seemed to rise right out of his mind. He shook his head, then looked around. He heard singing. No. It wasn't just singing. It was humming. Humming and singing? He walked forward through the grove, trying to find the source. After weaving in and out through the stalks, he saw an opening. There was a waterfall pouring gallon after gallon of water without a single sound. How could that happen?! He walked towards it, but stopped. Next to it, a girl was sitting down, rubbing her fingers across the back of a wakihizashi (middle sized katana). Her mouth wasn't open, but the singing and humming continued. It started to hurt his head. "Hey..." Sojiro tried to say, but no sound came out. Then, all at once, the waterfall's sound came to life once she opened her mouth. His "Hey..." Hesitated then hung in the air for a second. He shook his head, then stepped forwards. "Who are you?!" He yelled at her. She merely tilted her head to the side, and mouthed: 'I don't know'.  (Sorry for such a big picture. Gomen O sai!)

(( CHANGING MIND. ))
Yua was already pretty far away from everyone else. So as the air was starting to cover in a more heavier reiatsu, the girl moved her right arm close to her weapon. Her palm covered the cap of her zanpakuto, her light fingers traced the embroidings on the smooth surface as she kept her eyes foward in watch. Usually when she fought a single person, the black hair girl would always watch her target and her cloudy amber eyes would never leave so she could read every movement. But now there were 3, and any could get her at a time. Yua's eyes lingered on the person who had just came in to fight as well. The man had gone low to the ground and seemed to be a in ready position.
The position seemed familiar since that was how Yua fought as well. The sound of sliding metal could be heard as the girl thought about drawing her weapon, but thought against it. She usually lowered herself towards the ground in a kneeling position as well, because the attack of her draw was fairly stronger than her strikes. Still, Yua thought her eyes still on Sojiro If he is waiting for the first move, then he shouldn't be my worry for now Yua turned her head towards Cresan. Cresan had his shikai activated, and can proabably do the most damage at this time. Although, Yua looked at Rios without turning her head Cresan is easier to see - wearing all that bright blue..
Yua moved her right leg infront slightly but did not lower herself so she could see more around her. Her right hand grasped at her weapon's handle with a tight grip, but the sword was noto drawn yet. She decided to stand still as well, all the while looked around with out making any movements with her head to see what could be used to her advantage and what could not.
