Ugu frowned. Maybe he should have done the same activity that the class did last time. These battles seemed to have been going by rather quickly, and only half of the hour seemed to have been up. "Oye," the sensei began, speaking to Yojimbo, "Pick up Zaviel and bring him over here. The next spar is going to begin."
"Actually," he said, still speaking to Yojimbo," Whether you're there or not doesn't matter. Tsai is most probably going to get his buttox handed to him." The frown soon turned to a smile as he turned his vision to Ran's and Tsai's general direction. "Ran. Tsai. Prove me wrong, Tsai. Go easy on him, Ran."

yojimbo still walked over to zaviel, grabbed his zanpakuto and dragged him to the side of the room muttering "dang your heavy" as he pulled him along.

The woman turned her head towards the sensei as she stood from her position, zanpaktou lain back on the ground, shifting her bokken free from her obi as she walked to the center of the classroom, where the other's had fought previously.
"I won't go easy on 'im. If I go easy on 'im, he ain't gunna learn nothen. Wha's the point in tha'? I ain't gonna kill 'im. But I ain't gonna go easy on 'im. E'll live." the grin she flashed the teacher was confident. Both in Tsai's abilities, and her own ability to keep herself under control.
Beckoning to Tsai to join her, she didn't bother to take up a stance, she remained relaxed, the bokken in her main hand held loose, and turning herself toward him with her off hand. She'd give him what advantage she could. She didn't want to beat him too badly. He wouldn't learn anything by being beaten constantly.
Well, maybe it would. But not as much as a battle where he learned, instead of just taking blows.

Tsai got up onto the stage. He sighed and smiled confidently. He was really looking up for the battle. Sure, he knew he wasn't going to win but he might as well get his moneys worth out out of the battle. He turned to face Zenmaru, "She won't kill me with a bokken".
Tsai got up and turned facing Ran, his right hand holding onto his bokken which was tucked behind him on his belt. He waited for the signal to go. "I'm ready when you are Ran-san," he bowed his head slightly respectively and got back up. He bent his knees, his left foot infront of his right and held his right hand firmly on his bokken, ready for the quick draw.
"Fact is, if I avoided both strokes from her bokken, she would have some delay between each blow, there were two strokes, meaning there would be two chances to attack Ran, but those strokes probably weren't going to be easy to dodge"
"Time to initialize the plan," Tsai said to himself silently. "Let's hope she doesn't hammer me down until the third blow," he smirked and waited for Ran to attack.

The woman approached, her head nodding quietly as she took a few moments to assess his stance, as well as the positioning of the blades. Her eyes flashed around him for a moment, seeming to move without really seeing him. After but a mere second or so of this, she was surging forward, her body twisting as she drew her first bokken from behind her back. The attack she makes is a slashing strike, the bokken moving from right to left, and upward. The strike is aimed for a chest, or hip, or potentially arm blow. Anything that will disable, without causing too much direct damage.
The second strike comes of course from her off hand, which in the motion of her turning, is brought in a direct slashing motion toward the center of his chest. This time, the blow sails from left to right, again a strike at the chest and arms. She's definately trying for a disabling blow. However, anyone observing the fight from the outside would notice the fact that the previous strikes she'd made were meant to be feints. This wouldn't be uncommon in a fight, a maneuver meant to have the opponent expecting a different blow.
Of course, Tsai had seen her fight before, she knew this. She knew he would be expecting several different things from her. Likely however, what he wouldn't expect would be the third blow that comes from out of nowhere, a strike aimed for the center of his chest, with the bokken in her dominant hand had shifted so that the butt of the weapon was what she was striking with. The movement would put her inside the circle of his attack radius, making an attempt to maneuver his bokken in such a confined space a little more difficult than anticipated.
Unlike most fighters, after delivering her blows in a spar, she didn't back away, but instead, attempted to press her advantage. She had him at arm's length, and it was her intention to try and keep him there.

Tsai watched as Ran drew her bokkens. His hand was still placed firmly on his bokken which was placed on his belt. As Ran surged forward, Tsai saw the movement of her bokken, he would have to react quickly. He shifted his entire body to the left, or the right if you are reading from Ran's perspective and just barely passed her first stroke.
Tsai kept in mind that she did have two bokkens, he braced himself for an attack at any moment. Then, as the thought of her second bokken leaves his mind, Ran presses for a second attack, this time with her opposite arm. Tsai leaped to the side to avoid the swipe, his bokken still not drawn in his hand.
As Tsai is about to get up to attack, knowing that she would have some time delay from the two swipes, he sees Ran move in with her dominant hand. Instinctively, Tsai leaps over Ran and lands rather awkwardly. He could now begin his plan

Tsai got up, he was still surprised he dodged her first set of attacks but now he knew that Ran was capable of three attacks, he could better prepare himself for her upcoming strikes. But first things first, Tsai had to test out his delay theory on dual wielders, he moved forward, dashing straight up to Ran, and using his left foot spun around her, hoping to surprise her with his feint, drew his bokken and with it facing downwards, he swung it across her chest, hoping to hit anything, anything that would come in contact. This was rather sloppy.
He kept his eyes peeled, she would counterattack at anytime.
Attack:
11 + 3 = 14

The attack on her isn't unnoticed, and Ran pivots as the attack comes, her bokken striking hard against his, deflecting it back. The first offensive strike she makes is a basic one, bringing the hilt of her bokken down toward his left shoulder.
The second strike is meant to throw him off guard, as she aims a well placed headbutt toward his temple. Unfortunately, that also seems to be hit and miss.
With the third strike, she finds purchase with her bokken against his, and rather than pressing for the offensive to deal damage, she twists her bokken in her dominant hand, and makes a quick strike against his bokken, knocking it from his hand, to send it sailing off, where it lands on the floor with a clatter.
Holding the bokken in her off hand at his throat, she grins down the length of it at him, her air of amusement gone, and in it's place, a serious expression, matched by the complete lack of a drawl in her tone.
"Do you concede the fight?"

~~~~~~"It-It's ok Yojimbo...i can walk..." With that, Zaviel broke out of Yojimbo's grasp and started walked towards Ugu and Kaosu. He was limping, but it was fine. He got to the place Ugu was standing, "Yeah?" Was all he said. Zaviel put back on his Jacket and scarf. He put the bokken down and slipped his Zampakto where it usually was, tied to the cloth around his waist. "Hey, Kaosu," He said from where he was standing, waiting for Ugu to say something," Sorry...i couldn't do anything to him....well, i guess we are alike in a new way now, both taken down in one hit, heh. But, are you ok?" Zaviel asked, worried about his friend. If you saw and heard him now, you wouldn't think he was worried about his condition at all. Damn...my feet hurt like hell. Well, it was where he got me. That match was more action then i actually wanted. We were moving at a pace where I didn't even think, I just acted...that's a first. Well, atleast i almost hit him.

Tsai's first strike wasn't going to work, he would have to wait for another chance. Right now he had to focus on dodging, but he didn't have two hands to move freely with, he realized Ran was increasing the pace. Tsai managed to dodge her first two strikes with mere parrying.
He then forgets about the third strike Ran is capable of. The result: a clatter on the floor as he stares at his bokken which was a good length away from his body. He stared at Ran with amazement. And bowed respectively. "Thank you for the match, I think I've had enough," he said bowing down, he got back up and went to pick up his bokken. "Ugu-sensei, I'll give up," he said with a smile.
"Again, thank you for the match, Ran-san," he said again bowing and walked off with a smirk on his face, he turned his head as he looked at Ran, and continued to walk. He waited for further instructions from Zenmaru

Ran tipped her head then, giving him that close-eyed smile, but this time, it was completely genuine, both of her bokken held in one hand as she made her way to place them back on the racks, and then bent to retrieve her zanpaktou.
"Thanks for the fight Tsai. You did good, real good. I'd like t'spar ya 'gain when 'ya get stronger."

Ugu, after seeing that Zaviel had come to him, smiled. He brought his right hand up and attempted to place it on the student's shoulder. "You did good, Zav'. Chiyu #1: Ichiban a Chiyu." The hand that Ugu had attempted to place on Zaviel's shoulder then embraced a green aura. If Zaviel allowed Ugu's technique to take effect he would be on the receiving of some healing.
[Healing@Zaviel: 28-33]
Still smiling, the teacher then looked over to Ran and Tsai's second-long bout. "Well. Seems like mostly everyone had their match end rather quickly today." The elder shinigami made an exaggerated sigh. "There's still thirty minutes of class time left." He then chuckled. "Everyone who was here last week- do you remember the activity that we did?"

Tsai nods. He pushed his bokken back onto his belt and tucked it behind him. Tsai really didn't like doing the same things too many times in a roll. He hoped they weren't. Maybe a variation was coming up? He wondered.
"That was pathetic" a voice screamed out to Tsai. He looked around, no one seemed to be talking. Tsai got back into place and waited for further instructions and details for their next assignment in class.
