Welcome to Gaia! ::

MockaDash lowered his gravity center by putting his right foot in front of his body and the left foot slightly to the side while bending his knees... The left hand that held the saya, was placed behind his back and his left arm stretched across his chest reaching for the zanpakutou's tsuka...
In the split of a second he drew the nodachi and blocked Akira's attack... Both contenders stood there, thrusting each other's blade, thus sending sparks flying from the friction...

Now... Now... Don't you go and get to cocky... the shinigami said as his eyes started to shine in and indigo tone And do you know why I accepted the challenge??? I'm eager to see how my combat tactics will hold up against a strategist such as yourself!!!... You are aware that in the 1st Division we are adept at handling virtually all kind of situations... But, I must confess that one of my specialities is combat assessment, and that I'm a decent tactician myself!!!...
The air around both shinigami's seemed to freeze because of the tension that was felt, and every new student that was watching the match gulped with nervousness...

Mock jumped back a few meters and upon touching the ground, immediately sprung forward at Akira, swinging his zanpakutou in a diagonal upward slash at his torso, followed by a two-hand held vertical downward slash, aimed at the top of his foe's head.

(( OOC: Dude I'm sorry but it's past 4 a.m. here and I have to work tomorrow morning at 9 eek I'm drowsy so I'll go to bed now... I'm looking forward to continue this match tomorrow morning - I work with my laptop, so... - it's starting to get interesting xd ))

"Good job, Ami-chan! Now, what I want you to do next is to absorb that ball and create another one again. Just repeat absorbing and re-forming the ball for ten consecutive times. This the most basic yet the most fundamental training in a shinigami's life. If you get the hang of this, just like what I said to Sha-chan, everything will come easy for you!" He said, sitting back and calling Sha-chan over. "Hey, Sha-chan, come here for a minute! I want to introduce you to Ami-chan!"

"Wow, Sha-chan is usually a bit faster. I guess I must have trained her too hard..." Xeion muttered and gave out a half-jested laugh although he was concerned about Sha-chan's condition post-training.

"Going back to the matter at hand, yes, Ami-chan, you've done well. Damn well. Why is it that I get the most talented shinigami as my students? I'm so lucky!" Xeion exclaimed, giving a thumbs up to Ami-chan. "Okay, you've got the ball down pat. Next is that we're going to create your zanpakuto now. DO you think you're ready?" He asked as he didn't want to push the girl past her limits.

Amika turned and bowed to Shard.

"Hi" Amika greeted Shard with.

Then Amika turned to face Xeion "yes I am ready to create my zanpakuto" she answered.

"Good, that's the spirit, Ami-chan! Okay, now this is where things start to get a bit difficult, but I'm sure you'll get to it without too much trouble just like Sha-chan did." He said, putting his hands on his sides, he then began to instruct the girl about the next step of their training.

"I want you to close your eyes and concentrate on making a reiatsu ball on both your hands. Imagine your zanpakuto and it will form out from the reiatsu ball. Let the ideas in your head flow freely and just think of creating your zanpakuto. What would it look like? How would it feel? Those kinds of things. Whatever your weapon may look like, don't forget, a zanpakuto is a reflection of it's user's personality so be genuine with your feelings and imagine what kind of traits you want your weapon to have." He said, still smiling.

"It may take you a few tries, but I believe you can do it in one try. You have great potential, after all." He praised then turned around to face Sha-chan. "Yeah, about the training, would you mind if we wait for Ami-chan to finish? It would save time if I train you both at the same time rather than switch from one person to the other. That way, training will be continuous, without any gaps in the middle; just like a real combat situation."

Mock's nodachi was deflected and deviated to the right by Akira's zanpakutou, forcing him to release his left hand and only hold it with the other one... He was a bit surprised to see his foe voluntarily throwing himself into the ground, so because he didn't knew what to expect he decided not to drop his guard... Unsan KaijinKami (Scatter/Disperse AshGod) he muttered as the katana at his left side immediately turned to ash and vanished...
With his left hand, MockaDash gripped the long tsuka of his remaining zanpakutou... Now holding it with both hands, he pulled it to the front of his face, thus blocking Akira's kick with the nodachi's blunt side of the blade...

As Akira's Zanpakutou dangerously approached Mock's chest, he yelled Mamorigami (Guardian Deity) and the ash that previously formed his katana, instantly gathered between Mockadash's heart and Akira's blade, preventing it from piercing him...

MockaDash once more let go of one hand from the nodachi, this time his right one, and pointing his index finger at Akira's torso Hadou #4 he said with a grin Byakurai shooting a ray of white lightning at point black shoot!!!...

Mock simply left his guard down as he payed attention to what the other shinigami was doing He's fast... mock said to himself, out loud ... And weird!!!... What does he hope to accomplish by just spinning around???
The rocks thrown at MockaDash were simply deflected by the shields that were instantly and intuitively being constantly formed by KaijinKami's Ash... Some students at the academy, that were watching the match, searched for cover from the random rocks that were being thrown at them... Mock turned his voice to those students If you don't want to get seriously hurt... I suggest you leave, now!!!!!
The shinigami made a small cut on his forearm with his zanpakutou, and let the blood run through the blade... As the blood ran, it tainted the blade in black... and upon turning completely dark, Mock's reiatsu tenfolded and spiked, causing the ground beneath him to depress and sink a bit, forming a small crater beneath his feet...
He grinned as he taunted Akira Charge at me one more time... Now it's your turn to show me your potential!!!...

Akira wasn't a fool he realized a a change in Mocka Dash's tone. His he blood rushed as he seemed to charge right in. Yelling to comfirm what Mock said earlier to the students.
"You better listen to him or you might get cut down in your prime. Plan for a future!!..."

Akira stopped about a foot and a half away from Mocka. He created a new twister around MockaDash His flash step being put to good use he created ten after images. That all stepped out of the new twister and proceeded to slash into the twister at Mock.
At the same time the real Akira was above the eye of the twister still spinning from his momentum earlier in the match. Flying straight down at Mocka. All the while biting down on his blade as he said his release words softly.

"Slumber, Chronos..." lets give them a show Chronos. taught akira as he visioned the eye on the helm of the spirit named Chronosglared at him feverishly.
A small lakes sum of sand burst forth from the newly formed Chronos. Continuing his spin he created a new twister with in the one already formed. With the black sand caught in the twister not only was his Reiatsu nearly invisible, but he created a spike shell around his body. Bits of loose sand spread trough out the field and the first twister.
So hows this Mock, I thin me and Chronos have the potential to challenge ever form you take.
