Nicholas' stupidly effeminate face broke out into a wide smile as he regarded Inochi with the grace of a Japanese Highschool Girl.
"WAIII! Matsu-chan! Of course you can train here!"
Nicholas was literally surrounded by a cluster of sparkles, eyes half-closed in happiness as he stood in "Anime Pose #6", in which his two hands were held together before him, his leg bent back and he hopped on the spot in happiness.
"WAIII!"
Just...damn it.

Matsu started laughing at the sight of this. He bowed slightly and unsheathed his zanpakuto. "Thank you. Now I can get the pratice that i've been putting off for a while." He turned around and held his zanpakuto before his face. "Bite, Kuroi Kiba!" he said in a sort of emotionless tone. His zanpakuto transformed into a 7 ft. long, dark blue longsword. "There, now I can begin..."

"Wow..." Nicholas breathed. "Your shikai looks a lot like my unreleased blade." Nicholas gestured at the sword strapped to his back.
"Tell ya what." Nicholas said, cracking his knuckles. "Up for a little spar? Anything goes, though avoid killing strikes kinda thing? We'll even bet something...I'll wear women's clothing for the rest of my life if I lose..." Nicholas offered, already reaching for the blade at his back, an adventurous twinkle in his eye.
It was the most emotion he had ever displayed in one go, without his mask on.

Matsu chuckled. "Alright, but let's cancel the betting part for now, okay?" he said thinking of how horrible it would be to see such a thing come to life. He shook his head to forget about and raised his blade at Nicholas. "Have at you, then!"

Nicholas shrugged, his reiatsu already spreading through his body in a pattern all too familiar to him...
"Sure, if you say so...nevertheless, I will be wearing women's clothing despite the outcome of this battle."
The matter of factly way he said this would throw off most people, but what he did next was also very surprising.
"Ye Lord." He was taking steps back, drawing his blade as he spoke. "Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of Man! Inferno and pandemonium, The sea barrier surges, March on to the south!"
"HADO 31: SHOT OF RED FIRE"
Red flames burst from his hands, and were directed towards Matsu. Leaving him to deal with it, he spun his blade around, whispering out one word
"Falconer?"
Yes sir!
A flash of light, and gone was his longsword. In its place, a gauntlet appeared, the inscription of a coin clearly seen. On his feet now were a pair of skates, each bearing the identical inscription.
"Gear Second."
Wheels turning and generating a high amount of smoke, Nicholas tore forward at Matsu, his right gauntlet coming forward to strike.
"Falconer, partial control of legs. Get us out of here in case something happens."
Affirmative!
Reitasu gathered within his fist.
"Revolver...SHOOT!"
The reiatsu was released, in the form of a shockwave, spreading out and seeking its target: Matsu.
"TURN!"
His legs, under the direction of Falconer, shifted, allowing him to turn sharply right, away from Matsu and his retaliation.

Matsu saw the Kidou and reacted by quickly firing a weaker shot. The attacks collided, causing a huge explosion and covering the area with smoke. As Nicholas launched the attack, the smoke was blown away and he tried to counter it. However, because it was a shockwave, he failed and was pushed away.
Matsu quickly discovered Nicholas' location. "Assai Tsume!" He swung his zanpakuto twice and released two strong reiatsu blades that were headed towards Nicholas.
Matsu then ran towards Nicholas and attacked from behind.
"Keirasshu!" His zanpakuto grew to ten feet and increased his attack power. He jumped up and swung down at Nicholas, with an large amount of preassure behind it.

((Recently, as in before I left for my holidays, I had training in it over at Squad 5. If ya look around the kido training grounds, you'll find my posts))
Having turned his back, he wasn't aware of Matsu's retaliation until the very last moment, twisting his body so that the reiatsu blades didn't strike anything vital.
Blood flowing freely among his body now, he allowed himself a smile as Matsu ran towards him, his blade increases to 10 feet.
"Now whose compensating?"
He watched as Matsu leapt, blade swinging down at him.
"Wing Road."
A blue road shot out behind him, arching upwards into the air. Nicholas followed it, looking as if he was skating on thin air.
Matsu's blade hit, taking out a large portion of his Road. Nicholas whistled.
"Daaaamn. If that hit..."
Nevertheless, unless Matsu could jump at incredible heights, he wouldn't be able to hit him. Portions of his Road still remained, allowing Nicholas to remain afloat.
But, that was boring.
The road fizzled out. Nicholas dropped, reiatsu charging again within his fist as he fell, the ground and Matsu rushing towards him.
A road slammed into place, stopping his drop. He skated nimbly off it, falling again, slower now.
Nicholas grimly thought of his match against Ti.
He hit the ground with an "oof", skating off immediately, the smoke trailing behind him as he charged up a new attack. A ball of reiatsu crackled ominously before him as he stopped at a considerable distance again from Matsu, a feral grin forming again.
"Congratulations Matsu, you'll be the first to face my newest attack..."
He slammed his gauntlet into the ball of reiatsu, releasing a large wave of wild, pure energy.
"DIVINE BUSTER!"
The attack spread out, covering a wide area.
Nicholas chased after it. He had no doubt that Matsu would find a way out of it, he knew from first hand experience he was strong enough to survive this attack. Nevertheless, he would never suspect the follow up...
Reiatsu was directed back to his right fist, staying there and building up. At the very last moment, he released it, a shockwave resonating out.
"REVOLVER SHOOT!"

The blade shrunk back to its original size. "There's a reason for it's increase in size, but its too boring to discuss." He tried to follow Nicholas' movements, even though he did lose track a couple of times.
"Newest attack?" He chuckled as he raised his zanpakuto up high. "Jinsoku Tsume!" He swung his zanpakuto, releasing three reiatsu blades. There was a twist this time. He never released a second wave of reiatsu blade. Instead, he twisted his arm as he swung.
The reiatsu blades spun around as they collided against Nicholas' attack. The attacks canceled each other out.
"That's a good technique. I can wait to see it after you've mastered it."
He was surprised as he heard a sound. He turned around and saw the shockwave come at him. "Damn! I can't dodge it!"
The shockwave hit him head on, but he reacted quickly. "Hakku Tsume!" He swung his zanpakuto and three reiatsu blades were headed towards Nicholas, in the same spinning manner as the ones that he launched before.

Hissing as the blades closed in, Nicholas twisted, throwing himself off course. What he didn't expect however, was the manner the blades spun in. Eyes widening as the blades neared, he let out the first word he could think of.
"Strawberry-"
The blades hit. He got lucky on one, it nicked his face, leaving a lovely scratch mark there. The other two...not so lucky, one hitting him clean through the shoulder, the other dealt considerable damage to his ********. Ow."
Blood trickled down his face. He stuck his tongue out to taste it.
"Lovely."
He regarded Matsu coolly, ignoring the blood he was losing.
'It seems that my reiatsu attacks aren't going to be effective. So be it."
He took off his top robe, revealing the sheer amount of blades strapped to him. He drew his Academy Katana, feeling the familiar weight in one hand, while drawing his new short sword from Kiba.
Spinning the two, he poured reiatsu from his two gauntlets into them, feeling the blades pulsate with his power.
"Gear Second."
He tore forward, until he was mere inches from Matsu. He swung out at Matsu, hoping to force him back. Thanks to the speed of his skates, and the reiatsu in his blades, he could hopefully keep Matsu busy enough to prevent him from too many of his reiatsu attacks.
"More! More!" He couldn't help but scream. "More blood! We're just getting started here Matsu!"

"Keirasshu!" As always, his zanpakuto grew to ten feet and it increased his strength.
He swung down to block Nicholas' first attack. Sensing another attack coming, he grabbed his sheath and held it in his left hand. In case Nicholas attacked with his other sword, he could use the sheath to bloack it.
"More blood? You really like to fight, don't you?"
There was a problem now. It had already been ten seconds since he used Keirasshu. The blade shrunk again and the increase in strength was gone. "Damn!" The force that Nicholas was using was now affecting him, pushing him back little by little.
He fell back to seperate them, and to cause Nicholas to lose his balance. He quickly put one hand on the ground and kicked up at Nicholas' stomach.

"Fool!" Nicholas cried, high on his blood lust. "You think that Matrix-esque-totally-awesome move is going to stop me! I watched the Movie that invented that move bi- OOF!"
That oof you heard there was Matsu's kick colliding with Nicholas' bare stomach, sending him back.
"Falconer, lock!"
The wheels of his skates lock into place, preventing him from rolling back as Nicholas slashed out with his katana, hoping to collide with Matsu's next attack, while his short blade was held closer to his body, ready to defend.
"I want a Bankai so badly right now." Nicholas gritted out angrily.
"Dear Grim, this Christmas I want a plaster rocket and a pet pony..."

Matsu quickly got up, though he didn't notice Nicholas' next attack. After he was standing before Nicholas, he noticed a large cut that ran down his leg.
"I have to be more careful.."
He jumped back and targeted Nicholas. He obviously had another trick up his sleeve. "If I had the honor of witnessing that new attack of yours, then let me give you the honor of witnessing one of mine. Keep in mind though, that I haven't done this more than two times, so I don't have a lot of control over it."
"Assai Tsume!" He launched two waves of reiatsu blades this time, same way he did when he had not mastered the spinning reiatsu blades attack. This way, the second wave would hit the first and give it a spin, making it stronger and faster.
However, this did not happen at all. Instead, each reiatsu blade collided with another, forming a large 'X'. They then began to spin, looking like a stronger version of the spinning blade attack.
He wasn't sure if this could work, or if it would miss or do much damage, but...practice does make perfect.

Nicholas' eyes widened at Matsu's new attack.
"NANNNI?"
Yes, Japanese.
Twisting his body, he ducked low, doing a complete 180 as he did so, before facing forward again, the giant X of reiatsu passing over his head, taking a few strands of hair as it did so.
"Son of a b***h! That was Pantene quality hair that was!"
Using the small momentum gained from his spin run movement, he sliced out again, before amazingly enough, he dropped his Academy katana.
"I have been completely honest with you Matsu." He whispered, the reiatsu pouring into his right fist again. "I actually had TWO new attacks."
His right hand thrust out, the reiatsu crackling madly around it.
"REVOLVER RIFLE!"
His Strength+Insane Amounts of Reiatsu+Momentum+Metal Gauntlet= WTFISH?

Matsu looked in amazement at this. "Another one?!" He knew that This one wouldn't be as easy to stop as the one before.
"I was hoping I wouldn't have to use this technique, especially since I haven't had a chance to train it."
He was glad that they were close, however, since that helped him with his next attack. "Teikuumou!"
A large explosion of reiatsu followed soon after. Because Nicholas, and his attack, were within ten feet of him, they were affected by the attack. Matsu's zanpakuto was now normal, the same as its sealed form. Everything was now moving slowly, either that, or Matsu was moving faster.
Either way, the following event seemed like a total blur.
After a few seconds, 7 to be exact, Nicholas' attack continued to move at it's normal speed. However, Matsu was nowhere in sight. If Nicholas had thought he was safe, or if he had killed Matsu, he was wrong. A katana appeared before him, only a few centimeters from his neck.
Next to Nicholas stood Matsu, his sleeve was ripped and burnt to shreds, while his arm was covered in blood. Matsu's face also took some of the hit, shown by the blood on his left cheek.
"That was a good attack, too close for comfort in fact." he said, sheathing his zanpakuto. "Had I not used that teachnique and then moved to the side, it would have done a lot more damage. Well, I think that's enough training for now, don't you think?" he said as he sat under a tree. "And by the way, I don't think that you'll be my first choice as my barber." he said, pointing to the scorched hair that sometimes covered his left eye.
