Welcome to Gaia! ::

For a moment, Aichou looks like she's the pinnacle of focus..then she fishes in her top..how much can she keep in there..? And pulls out what looks like a small device, with some wires attached. She puts the wires..errr, phones in her ears..and turns on the little music player, and starts to hum along with the song she starts playing. It's a little something she had the technology bureau cook up for her; a spirit/wave adaptable music player. she could take music files from the mortal world, and convert them to a format that the machines up here would utilize. It isn't long before she's up and dancing around, oblivous to whoever may be looking at her in her corner.

Well this is familliar, I dont think im going to get anywhere after only one attack so I'll just sit tight. He thought as he watched his own blow avoided and a new one comming at him.

Using his defensive posture to his advantage Rikou rapidly withdrew his weapon from the attack and angled it in front of him to deflect the strike. Having accomplished that he backed up a few feet and kept the bokken mid level in order to maximize his own defense.

This will take a while... He smirked at the thought, Good thing I'm already dead.

Doge Roll + 20

Aichou stops dancing for a little while, and watches the two fighting now, and she can't help but start giggling. The one young man looks so frustrated for a while! The other one just seems so laid back, as if he's not serious at all..it's such a weird sight, and Aichou, being who she is, just keeps giggling, until she finally just flops down on the floor and keeps giggling like a little girl..yeah, she's lost it..but it's funny to her..

"Tch, whatever works for you then, but I'm going to keep attacking!" He began the same aggressive charge as before, doing his best to tune out that aggravating little girl's giggling. Deciding to mix things up a bit, he faked a simple attack, but at the last second lowered his bokken slightly and quickly side-stepped towards his opponent's left side. Gabriel mustered up another quick burst of strength, and brought his bokken up for an attack at Rikou's side.

((8+6= 'nother free dodge for you...Gabriel's looking like a complete putz now...D=))

Keeping his eye on his opponents weapon Rikou slipped his blade sideways and jumped back using the hard attack to propell him farther out of harms way. His landing was a less than gracefull and almost fell backward but eventually got his balance. "Your getting awfully worked up over a fight."

While he kept most of his attention on his opponent part of it shifted to Aichou, "Well I'm glad your amused sensi." He said casually to his seemingly nonthreatening superior, "But then you always do find fighting amusing dont you?" Recalling the last zampaktou class he had been in.

"You could learn something from her."

"Well yeah, a fight is a fight after al--" He stopped his sentence short after hearing Rikou refer to the giggling girl as Sensei. "S-She's a teacher?!" Gabriel suddenly blurted out. Considering her previous attitude, Gabriel would have never guessed. "Hmmm...considering that there are people here that can launch others across rooms with no effort at all, I could defenitely believe that she's a teacher..." He briefly turned towards Aichou, a little embarrassed about the way he referred to his superior. He bowed quickly, and muttered a quick word of apology. "Ah...Sumimasen, Sensei." Gabriel wasn't taking any more chances with teachers after the last incident.

Gabriel turned back to Rikou, pointing his bokken at him. "Now...how about we get back to this fight?" Not allowing time for his answer, Gabriel began a fast paced walk towards him. Without warning, he changed his pace into a rapid sprint. He raised his bokken quickly and brought a quick but powerful slice down at Rikou's shoulder.

((BLARGH, MY DICE ARE LOADED! <<))

He smirked as the man did not attack, but succesfully dodged his blow and he held the scythe tightly in the middle of it, but he crouched low into a different position and he held the scythe further infront of him and smiled as he nods to him taking in a deep breath and enjoying the small break. "You are better then I expected...at least alot better then anyone I have fought before." He said with a smirk, his seriousness fading as the symbols upon his body again began to zip and move this way and that across the surface of his body.

He allowed them to move around for a little while as he stared at Megumi and then nodded to him, signaling that it was time for him to begin again. This new stance was obviously a different kind of fighting style, along with the fact that his symbols were re-aranging once more. It all really depended on if Megumi had figured them out yet, he had his doubts. Nobody really figured them out before. He just sighed as he used his first attack of the different style. He ran forwards and he threw the double scythe into the air, the weapon flying forwards towards Megumi, but he then leaped through the air and he caught it when he was a couple of feet infront of Megumi and he gripped it in mid-air right above the second blade and swung it down as he fell like a hammer, using the blunt end of the scythe blade like a mallet.

Attack: roll + 4

(Dodge: 15+20 =35 /Attack: 4+10 =14)
(Great dodge, crappy attack. ;[ )


He watched the man carefully. Megumi wasn't paying attention to any symbols..he was paying attention to the man's body language. To him, that was the best indication of what the enemy was to do. He watches the weapon come forward..but a scythe wasn't meant to be thrown. No, he had a feeling there was more, and he waited. Now, he could be wrong..but when the enemy started moving, he knew he was right.


Megumi's style was about adaptation. It wasn't meant to be a directly attacking style; it was made for counterattacking and defense mixed, and when the enemy's attack comes down like a hammer, Megumi spins rapidly out of the way, and goes into an immediate follow-up thrust from the enemy's right side; the attack is aimed at the upper shoulder, meant to partially disable the arm or dislocate the shoulder. Of course, it's different since the weapon he's using can't actually pierce, so the thrust is off, at least for him.
