Welcome to Gaia! ::

~Leon's eyes kept up with Akane's movements and followed them to a "T" as he watched Akane draw the electricity to his left hand. His right hand gripped around the rosewood hilt of his zanpakuto he kept his defensive stance hardened as he sent out another pulse once again disrupting the electrical buildup. With that he simply only had to worry about blocking the slash, which he did with precision. As his blade clashed with Akane's, Leon quickly stepped forward with his left leg and fel to his knee's again on the ice. Having pushed Akan'es strike away, which would have made him spin to his left with the deflection of his blade, Leon slid underneath him as he was tsill in mid air and popped up form behind Akane pushing himself into the air using the ti of his blade against the ice to steady himself on the slippery surface. Now in teh air he performed several quick strikes towards Akane's back with the blunt side of his sword, just to be on the safe side.

Akane, using the force of the block to spin him around, parried the blunt attacks with the sharp side of his own blade as electricity surged through the blade, giving of sparks here and there, possibly shocking Leon mildly. Again, Akane began to focus lightning into his left hand, not giving up on what he was doing. Again, Akane slashed at Leon, but with the blunt side of his zanpakuto this time.

As Aisu saw Kagen prepare to fight all he could do was grasp Touketsu Mugen's hilt firmly looking towards Kagen. Drawing his zanpakuto from its sheath its stainless steal blade shone showing testament to its fine craftsmenship. Motioning Kagen to come he sighed.

"Attack....."

When the staves would atempt to bind Aisu he would already have reappeared behind Kagen with a smirk on his face. Just as Aisu appeared Kagen woud notice that the position he tried to attack Aisu in would be empty and a red light would sorround him. This red light would be in the form of a rectangle with a closed top and it would be so close that Kagen would not even be able t draw his zanpakuto. If he tried to cross it he would realize that it was a barrier sealing spell and he was binded. As Kagen woud realize this a cold breath escaped Aisu's parted lips.

"Bakudou #9 - Geki."

((epic boom. lmao))

When the two high concentrations of reiatsu collided, the promptly detonated in a semi-massive explosion, melting the snow in half of the room and vaporizing the majority of the ice on the floor. Even Raikari felt the attack, but did not disappear. Akane was sent flying back towards the wall. He slammed into the wall, going into the wall about two inches, but his back took 98% of the blow. It still left him a little dazed for a few minutes but, after the daze was gone, Akane would shake his head and his eyes would focus on Leon.
"That was...entertaining."

Kagen smirked as the first slash connected, but not exactly as Aisu had planned it would, it barely even nicked Kagen's body. Kagen wasn't being dumb, he was connected with Wangetsu the whole time. He was practically seeing the whole battle from another point of view. All that he had to do was keep up reaction rate so that attacks would miss and he could increase his evasion. Kagen stood still as Aisu was nearly 7 feet away from his point *if he moved forward he would have hopped two.* Kagen smirked as he then looked at Wangetsu and then jumped forward. Then Aisu would see the sword coming straight for him in a horizontal slash. Though the next moment Aisu would feel a strong force pushing him farther from the closest wall behind him. Kagen was pulling him towards the direction. But next Aisu would feel Kagen do an upper cut within the range of one foot while the sword was still atleast three feet away as it then shot into the air. Whether or not Aisu got hit Kagen would dash away and hop once to do a fall back roll and land on three feet.

"phew, that was a lot of control gravity control....and to repel from the wall at that distance...man I still have a lot to learn and a ways to go with strength..."

As the lightning struck his shoulder Kagen grinned as his eyes whitened for a slight moment as he then focused to put an opposite energy around that first cut to attract the entire surge of lightning and let it stay at the shoulder. his eyes regained their color as he then viewed i saw the kick coming in and he then used his gravity to repel himself from the kick. Aisu would feel as though his blow had hit but Kagen had really only given him that feeling due to feeling that he was repelled. Kagen then flew forward slightly and then did a roll to recover himself standing up after the roll.

"Well that was fun..."

After hearing the words of Aisu he sighed and smirked, Kagen had done what he wanted to do though. Throughout the fight he knew he wouldn't be able to match up to Aisu, but he knew he could atleast practice his powers in making every piece of damage given a little less dense. Kagen had now learned how to keep himself from being chopped in half if the time were to come that he were to almost be done in like that. He followed Aisu's order and then went to the hot spring. Whether Aisu had caught on to Kagen's plans and strategy was up to his wisdom and analysis.

Even as dazed as Akane was, thanks to his super fast vision and reaction time, he was able to bring up his blade to block the attack, but only just. The force of the attack sent him flying backwards, now parallel to the wall, and forced him to slam into the ground. After coughing once or twice, Akane stood and held his Zanpakuto at the ready.
"Strike the clouds, Coterus!!"
Akane's Zanpakuto transformed into the typical, feudal Japan style katana, and blue lightning surrounded the blade. The air in the entire are was filled with electricity and his abilities severely increased to beyond belief levels. His speed now made him almost untouchable by conventional attacks and still hard to hit by regular attacks. All metal around him would be slightly pulled towards him, including Leon's Zanpakuto, but the pull was only strong enough to be notices. In this state, Akane's personality changed kind of dramatically. He now looked slightly insane, but still sane enough to know what he was doing and plan it out.
"Now you will see what I can truly do!!"
All could tell that Akane was gathering energy, but it was unclear as to which part of his body it was going to. Honestly, it seemed to be evenly spread out.
