Tadashi grinned at Kisuu as he sheathed his blade. "Hey. Your not too bad actually. Just stop smoking before I bite you to death. Oh and one thing." Tadashi reached into his sack that hung on his wasted and took out a stick of dynamite. "Use it in an emergency. The only way it will blow up is if you throw it and it leaves your hand. It will go off on direct contact."

Kisuu smirked at Tadashi's comment on his smoking but continued to puff away at his cigar. He started to walk away to the exit away from Tadashi but continued to speak.
"Sorry...But I will have to refuse on the smoking part and...Thank you but no thanks...Not the type who likes those kind of things..."
Kisuu then exited the garden and wandered off into the night.

"That damn kid....." Tadashi chuckled. He sat back on the rock and leaned back. "At least I got his zanpaktous soul. hehe...." Tadashi quickly drifted to sleep.

MockaDash shumpoed to the gardens... I see Razil hasn't arrived yet... he said to himself, not sensing the other Shinigami's reiatsu... Guess I rushed here for no reason... Oh well!... Time to meditate a little...
Having said that, MockaDash sat on the ground with his legs crossed, his katana also on the ground in front of him, and begin entering meditation to suppress his reiatsu...
((I'll be waiting for your post Razil ))

((OOC: I was in meditation also as it turns out. A very deep one as I was training with my Zanpakuto Spirit.))
A flurry of black butterfly's filled the air with fluttering wings. They swirled upwards in a spiral, ascending to the bright blue sky above.
From the center of the vortex, Razil strode purposefully, having just awakened from a deep meditation-he had been mentoring with the spirit of his sword.
Walking over to where Mocka lightly slumbered, Razil spoke with a confident tone. "I know you know that I am here before you Lieutenant, lets get this thing started."
Stepping back in case Mocka were to surprise him with a sudden attack, Razil prepared himself for combat.

MockaDash opened his right eye, staring directly at Razil, and couldn't avoid a grin, as he said A little edgy!... Aren't you?... Don't worry!... We are on the 1st squad, and as such, we are Duelists!!! Honor is one of the things we value the most, and attacking an opponent without previous warning is considered among us, a serious misconduct!!!...
But you're right... I did noticed your approach long before you even reached this place... That's what meditating and training one's reiatsu control can do to oneself... Keen reiatsu senses! I must admit that, a long time ago, that was my weakest spot! But with all the meditation, that I'm now used to, that is no longer a weakness in me!
You see, Razil... In my opinion, in order to get stronger, a shinigami must try and transform his weaknesses into strengths!!!
Mock closed his eye once more, as he let out a sigh... He remained in his meditation position while talking...
That's just a little advice I have to offer you... But I was never a man of theories, but more one of actions! So let's get this show on the road!!!
Before we start our spar, however... I want you to tell me, your weak points and your strong points... Also tell me what you've accomplished in the shinigamis's art of combat: shumpo, shikai, bankai, kidous, etc... As well as your own combat proficiencies and masteries, like sword jutsus or jujutsu...

Sanosuke Kintaro approached the nearby fuss, as he strolled by the garden, after a few kidou and kata training. "Is that Mockadashs voice? What can he be doing here?" he wondered. stare
He then climbed a tree and jumped silently from branch on branch, hiding within the leafs and the shadows, untill he was in a position to observe the two shinigamis talking. "Let's just see and hear what they are doing..." ninja

[Tenchi Tatsou]
As he tried to follow Tadashi, he might have taken a wrong turn, and ended near the end of the Hell Butterfly Garden. He saw another Shinigami carefully crept inbetween some bushes. Intrigued by this, Tenchi slowly tip-toed towards the Shinigami near the bushes. He silently walked next to him, and looked over to see what he was doing.
Seeing the two Shinigami, and seeing the First Division's Lieutenant arm band strapped around one, he blinked. "This is gunna be a badass fight." Tenchi murmured just loud enough for the guy standing next to him to hear. He grew a smirk on his face.

Kintaro flinched a bit when he heard the shinigami behind him eek "I sure hope so..." he ended up saying "Now quiet... they might hear us." He then pointed to a branch beside himself: "Feel free to sit down" xd

Why don't you two just come out from behind that tree??? Don't you know that it's rude to eavesdrop other people's conversations!!!... Mock said, loud enough for the other two shinigamis to hear...
Come closer and introduce yourselves... I know you're there, Kintaro, but I don't recognize the other shinigami...
Sorry to interrupt our conversation, Razil... But I'm still waiting for an answer to my question...

((OOC: sorry, RL intruded.))
Tho corners of Razil's mouth twitched up slightly as the two Shinigami stumbled out of the bush. He returned his attention to Mocka, planning his answer.
After a moment, he took a breath and spoke. "I am a simple man, I have not trained in any Kido except for the basic ones. that being numbers 1 through 10 in both Hadou and Bakudo. My one true passion is the sword, since I am a weapon master, I strive to master any and all weapons that exist. I am working on learning shunpo, but I have only just now been able to start so, I don't have it yet."
"As for my Shikai and Bankai, I have two more weeks or so before I am ready to start my training in that, but my sword has been teaching me some techniques that I can use in combat."
"I would prefer not to say more, since divulging my powers is a waste of an advantage. So you will have to wait and find out what I can do."
Razil smiled pleasantly, then took another step back. He snapped his arm out, locking the elbow, and a long silver dagger flew from his sleeve. Razil caught the handle as it flew past and flourished the blade, making silver arcs and cutting the summer breeze. "Ready whenever you are, sir." he held up the blade in a guard position, waiting.

A weapon master?... Mock said with a smile as he got up and picked his katana from the ground... That's very interesting, Razil-kun... I am a iaido and battoujutsu master!...
So let us start this with an old fashioned clash of blades!!!
MockaDash turned his attention to Kintaro and Tatsou... Stay back!!! Since we won't be releasing shikai or strong kidous just yet, you may watch... But keep a safe distance!...
Show me the power... MockaDash said with daring eyes, directed at Razil, as his spirit pressure began to overflow into his surroundings ...Of a 3rd seat who doesn't even have shikai!!!
Mock adopted his usual battoujutsu stance - knees slightly bent, katana's saya on his left hand, right hand on the sword's tsuka, and torso twisted to the left in order to provide momentum for a quick spin to the right.
I'm positive you have great skill, in order to achieve such high rank in such short time!!!
Attack me at will!!!...

"Your ability to sense everything in your surroundings is far better than the last time We met, Mockadash!" Kintaro said.
Then dropping from the supporting branch, he landed in a kneeling position with his head lowered, as to make a greeting bow. "And I must said that I too improved since your absence. Mostly thanks to your teachings." he said.
Lifting his head to look at his friend: "Omedetou(Congratulations) on your promotion to Vice-Captain, Mockadash-sama!" he said with a smile "I believe you are befitting for such a position in the squad and I will not interfere with your battle..."
He then looked at the new 3rd seat and bowed again: "My congratulations to you too, Razil-san!"
Now taking a more unformal position, he sat under the tree from whence he came down, and started seeing the match at hand.

"My thanks, Kintaro."
Razil then returned to the battle. Turning to Mocka, he let his head droop on his chest as he gripped the sheath of his sword in his left hand. "Do not underestimate me Lieutenant..." bringing his left arm up, he grabbed the hilt in his right. The sheath dissipated like smoke as he passed his left over it, leaving the black blade glinting dully in the afternoon sun. "...I am quite a remarkable person."
His head still drooped to hide his eyes, Razil grinned twistedly. He extended his left arm straight out to the side, concentrating on his hand which was shaped as if around an invisible sword handle. Reiatsu tinged slightly black gathered around his shoulder and wound its way up the arm in several tendrils, like black snake stalking its prey. They gathered in his hand and extended outwards, becoming slightly more tangible, almost...solid.
Finally, the reiatsu in his hand stopped and flattened, forming a double-edged sword in his left hand, in the style of a Japanese broadsword. "This is an ability of mine...through precise control of my reiatsu, I can form almost anything...the only restriction is my imagination."
Grinning even wider, Razil looked up. The sword that was now clasped in his left hand shimmered slightly, giving it a ghostly appearance. His eyes were demonic and wild, thirsting for a fight. "Another thing, Mocka-san. I don't know if you remember from our aborted spar, but I never strike the first blow."

MockaDash broke his stance and sighed ... You seem to have misunderstood me, Razil-kun... I did not underestimated you!!! What I told you was that I'm eager to see your power!... Daven wouldn't had promoted you from 10th to 3rd seat, if you didn't deserved it!...
I wasn't mocking you back there... I really want to see the abilities that makes you suited for that rank!...I'm curious as to what they might be!
Mock then turned his attention to his old friend Kintaro, I'm happy to see you again, after such a long time... But we have to postpone our conversation for after this match!... Oh!... And thank you for congratulating me on my promotion!!! the shinigami gave his friend one of his trademarked smiles...
Now then... Mock said as he placed his eyes on Razil, once more... Don't get mad at me for saying this, but I really don't recall fighting you in the past... I'm sorry... But I couldn't remember that you don't like to make the first move... Unfortunately for you, Razil-san... Normally I'm not offensive and I was aiming to see your swordplay, so I really didn't want to use it so soon... But you gave me no choice!... In order for my personality to match the blood thirst I see in your eyes, I must "leak" a little bit of him!!!... MockaDash's voice was gradually becoming more guttural and daring, as he spoke... His reiatsu was changing from an indigo to a dark red aura, that seemed much more aggressive! Mock's reiatsu was rapidly growing each second!
Oh... One last thing...
Look up!!!
MockaDash was already coming down at Razil's head, with his katana, before he finished the sentence! The shinigami flash-stepped above Razil's head, and swung his zanpakutou downwards, in a straightforward but powerful and incredibly fast strike. The sword was describing a vertical path, aimed to slash Razil in two!
