((Well obviously haha. I was aware of that, but I mean SPAR not FIGHT. At least in the spar that I had before, reguardless hte bokken only did 1-10 damage as far as I remember. If I was wrong well then...I am just blithering like a fool))
Haro grinned as he stood there and he nodded slowly, he stood up from his position on the floor and he smiled brightly as he looked into the eyes of the teacher. While in this state of mind it was an extremely rare sight to see him smile, and that was evident as his smile dissapeared. He then went back to a battle hardened glare at his teacher. "I did not follow your instructionsfor my first attack for a reason, and that reason is perfectly fulfilled." He said with a bow to her. It would seem the blow that he had received had done nothing to his body nor pride. At least that he showed on the surface.
He gripped the double bladed scythe within his hands and he breathed deeply as he stood there, the soul purpose of the attack was too see just how fast his opponent was, and just how strong she was willing to hit him. He expected a little more from the woman, but he didn't say anything about it. He was extremely aged, right around four and a half thousand years. This place interested him greatly. His eyes looked her over, the markings on his body finally stopped moving and he slowly turned on his left foot, his weapon held inwards so as he gained momentum the weapon also guarded him from his head to his knees. He then at the full point of the momentum he wouldgain from the spin (if he were actually spinnign hard) slowly moved the blade in an upwards motion, sending the lower second blade upwards towards the teacher's jaw.

Miyoko stood above him for a moment, perhaps two, before a faint grin passed across her face. She was older than she would like to think about. She had been in Soul Society longer than she wanted to remember.
And she was holding back a great deal, to refrain from hurting him. That was the main thing. Restraint. It was something she had, like a tight vise on her abilities. When he stepped forward, she seemed to move with it, her bokken sliding down to meet the second blade as it came upward, sliding the bokken along the length of it just behind the blade, stopping the bokken just before reaching Haro's hands.
"Your blind spot is that you seem to use constant up and down motion. Like a spiral. A weapon like you wield is very limited, but at the same time, it is very versatile. Attempting that same attack from side to side, I'd be forced to either move over it, or under it. If I moved over, you could turn in the swing, and bring the blade up to cleave my skull. If I moved under, you could catch me with the lower blade in the chest, side, or arms, and force me off balance."
She stepped back then, disengaging her bokken from his own.
"Now, lets try a defensive move. I'm going to move in for an attack, and show me your basic defensive movement."
And she did, stepping forward, her zanpaktou thrust forward in a piercing motion. An odd thing for an odachi, but the movement was precise, and meant to strike the heart, so to speak.

"You'll forgive me if my movements are a little clumsy I hope? Very well then.."
Keiji arches his body forward, his right leg coming upward, then he launches himself directly forward. It might seem like a standard attack rush, and easy to predict except..instead of coming from the side or overhead with his weapon, he actuall brings it underhand, at an angle. If allowed to continue, is attack would come into contact with his opponent's left side at his waist, and continue going upward diagonally, to his right shoulder..
this attack looked a little slow, but since it was his first, that's bound to happen. If nothing else, such an unusual move might throw his opponent off a bit.

Aichou watches the class with a piece of strawberry pocky hanging out of her mouth. After a few minutes of what seems like her being attentive, She leans back and kicks her legs up, and lowers her pointy red hat down over her eyes. She keeps one eye open though, watching the goings on. She's not about to miss her old friend doing some fighting. Aichou was actually about to suggest that SHE be the kid's partner, since her old buddy was supposed to be doing just the general teaching. Aichou wouldn't have hurt him, honest..unless her sanity slipped and she forgot where she was again. That happened sometimes..

[Doge 1d20+20]
Rikou sidestepped left to avoid the attack and repositioned his weapon into an upward guard position while keeping his focus on his opponent. "Of course, this is only practice after all."
Keeping one hand on the bokken and the other firmly secured behind his back he firmly planted his feet to compliment his defensive posture. "I also hope you will forgive the general one-sidedness of this session. Defense I can do but I have never been a confident attacker."

Yojimbo turns to Karite and lunges at him, "here we go" he calls out. he thrusts his body weight into the attack, hopping to catch Karite off guard.

Karite was not shocked by Yojimbos approach. It seemed like the way he held himself also reflected the way he fought. He liked it. The whole take turns things wasnt working for him. He wanted a full on match and he wanted it as soon as possible. He quickly raised his bokken trying to shift his body to the side and glancing the thrust to the side as well.
1d20+14=29

He smiled again as she moved the bokken down towards his hands, kind of unfair, since he was not allowed to respond to it, he was fast, maybe not as fast as her, but such a movement would have easily been fixed, his weapon as she said was very versatile...but so was he. He just sirked, his head lowered slightly as he heard that she would be the agressor this time and he shook his head slightly, a casting shadow from his hair covering his face. He was ready for the peircing attack and he did a simple motion, like the one that she had preformed before.
All he had to do was a simple side-step with a turn so that his strike area was reduced by a dramatic ammount. But in the same motion the scythe was sent into a sidewards swing, his first blade out along with his left hand, the curved blade going in slowly that would hook into her spine and side of her back, but the second blade and most of the scythe was still backwards horizontally across his body so that he could move it up or down to sweet the blade off coarse if it were to change coarse. He was not cocky nor over-confident, but he hoped that this move wouyld be at least semi-satisfactory.

((Sorry I'm not posting, The Paradox (Megumi), but I've just realized that my attack bonus and total attack bonus may be incorrect, so I'm in the process of figuring out how to fix it before I do anything.))

(Sorry if you were waiting for me to post)
Rikou adjusted the grip on his bokken and brought his arm to the side. With a flick of his wrist he flipped the blade end out and swung at Keiji's legs hoping to topple him over, or knock him off his guard.
In Rikou's mind it was always better to cripple the enemy before attacking the main body. His style was slow and he would normally watch his opponent for a long time before the fight started, but because this match had started with no previous knowledge of his sparing partner he would have to learn on the fly.
(If were using bonuses than the attack is 1d20 +6)

Keiji may not have a lot of speed, or strength, but one thing he does have is an intuition, the ability to sense things as they come. True, his reflexes alone may not make up for the difference in his opponent's speed or power, but Keiji is, and has always been, a strategist. He had brought his blade upward at an angle to attack, and when his enemy aims at his legs, he has just enough time to watch the angle of attack.
In response to his, knowing he can't very well just move out of the way, he twirls his blade around in his hand, and brings it crosswise along his lower body, to meet the weapon head on with his own. Halting its progress, proving he may not be fast, but he is flexible. Keiji then slides back slightly away from his opponent, and resumes his former stance with a smile.
"A wonderful maneuver. You are a planner, like I am, it would seem. This may take a while."
Dodge/Parry: 7+13 base dodge = 20
(And actually I wasn't waiting, sorry about that. I'm still trying to fix my computer so my posting is still a bit sporadic.)

"I don't believe in a god," Takara stated dryly.
She took in a deep breath to calm herself. Even if her attack did not work--which it most likely would not, seeing as how weak she was--it was only practice. Slowly, she spread her legs apart, placing her bokken next her left side, as if it were in a sheath. She shot towards Megumi, her feet tredding lightly on the floor. Barely inches from the male, Takara slashed the bokken forward, aiming for his gut.
Attack roll: 12 + 2 = 14
((Yes, my attack is that weak. Now don't comment on it. Oops, I accidentally deleted it.))

(first roll: Dodge/Parry: 9+20 = 29 . Second roll: Attack: 1* +10 = 11)
This caused Megumi to raise an eyebrow. Battoujutsu? Fascinating. She was quick, like he was, and that said something. This might not be as lopsided as he thought, if she was using a style like that. Still, he was fast himself, and as her blade came up, his arm simply came downward, the wide handguard deflecting the blow, and he in turn, draws his arm back and makes a piercing thrust as a retort; Still, the blow he delivers is a little overcompensated; he might not even land it, as he wasn't truly focusing. His mind was slipping to something else, and it might cost him the first return attack, which tended to be the most important one..
(I'm not sure if a natural 1 is an auto failure or not, but even if it's not, I couldn't land that hit anyway..heh..even a roll of 1 on a dodge would negate that, since base dodge is always ten. XD)
