Welcome to Gaia! ::

He smirked nodding so as to let her know that he would accept her, he spoke " I want you to draw your zanpakuto Vice Captain, it would be unfair for me to use a blade while you do not... And I accept those terms Captain, let me know how or when I have proven myself" he said smirking as he looked at her and awaited her to draw her own blade. He did not care if he lost, but there would be no fun in a spar without any kind of blade to clash against his own.

Aiko's hand gripped at the hilt of her zanpaktou, but paused before drawing it. "Steady on there, don't get over your head. I hate digging Shinigami out of the dirt. Just play it safe, you get coky and you may as well beat yourself with a club." with that, Aiko eased her zanpaktou from it's sheath but took up no ready stance. She stood casually, her zanpaktou held loosely in her right hand with the blade slung over her shoulder. "Alright then Senka, lets see how you handle that weapon."

((Geeze Jinjaku, took you long enough.....That was the easiest 1 I have set for you too....))

Chimidoro laughed loudly with a large grin and shouted in amusement, ''A break, no, no, no....Now you move on to level two!'' The platform Jinjaku was holding then elevated. It flew a further 10 meters straight up into the air, and below him the spikes broke the wood. Intead of rotating again however, they began clamping and crunching the piece of wood as though it were eating it. The tree in the middle morphed into what appeared to be a tongue with a black orb on the tip. The spikes grew a fleshy coating over them about half way and from the sids two large eyes opened. ''HAHAHA! Welcome to task two! The rules are simple, defeat my pet without falling into it's mouth....Also to stop u from swinging over the edges I am laying down a clear rule here......You try leaping around that creature...I will rip you apart myself....''

Chimidoro spoke the last rule with a deep and menicing tone as he stared up at the now dangling Jinjaku as the giant beast remained stationary directly under him chumping away 10 meters below with its strange tongue lashing around within its mouth. Meanwhile, the situation with Ryuu grew more dire as he was now staring down 2 giant serpents which hissed louder and more drawn out as they sent piercing glares towards they're prey. The snake to Ryuu's left struck forward quickly, but pulled back on the very last second to knock hopefully knock Ryuu's guard down to the other serpent which was then immediatly triggard to lunge forward as soon as the first serpent performed the fake-out. The serpent opened its collosal mouth baring its massive dripping fangs as it twisted its head to the side trying to grip Ryuu in its mouth vertically.

((Everyone must stick to the rules seriously otherwise it kinda messes with the way things will flow in the little plot I have going here. xd Oh and welcomg to stage two Jinjaku twisted ))

Ogato approached Aiko and Sen smiling. While watching the two them spar Ogato said to Aiko, "Hey Aiko what's with the change in clothes?" Since Ogato's bangs are much shorter now his eyes are easier to see, along with that his new eye patch is also visible. Since Ogato hadn't changed his clothes since he completed his last day of training he wasn't wearing his standard shinigami clothes or his captain's jacket.

'i see so then perhaps we should spar as to test m full capabilities before entering?" willow asked as if to antagonize the captain in to a challenge. "after all the arrcaner did interrupt me in the sparing match i was having with hatsumi before all of this...i mean who goes and stops someones match just to get there own going out of boredom....?" willows hand began to grip the handle even harder becoming Furious in the thought. the zanpakuto seems to show the same anger in is pulsating aura.

Senka smirked as he saw her disappear, he had been planning on a retreat and even though she was moving to fast for him to see her, his other senses quickly kicked in as he figured out she was about 10 feet, away, his eyes quickly caught up as he saw he moving towards him, the attack was to fast to dodge so he merely moved left hand down the blade as he turned it so the flat side of his zanpakuto was exposed to her, he braced the impact of the strike and slid back about 5 feet before he finally stopped and looked back to her quickly rising to his feet ready for her next attack.

Ogato laughed then said, "Well atleast your changes are optional I had to cut my bangs and I kinda wanted to wear the eye patch." Ogato backed up then walked over to Willow. Clearing his throat Ogato said, "Willow i can spar with you. Don't worry I'll go easy on you."

after hearing that willow had a grin of something very ominous but slightly evil go over her face as chirema said finally, it about time i get back to having some fun as willow turned her head and tilted it to the right she simply whispered "thank you, captain" as she started to pull the sheathed nagamaki form her right hip it be came apparent her was not going to hold back and instead would treat him as she would be treating that arrcaner. she then asked "are you ready?" now with the blade pointing down. her left hand placed on the end of the hilt, her right hand griping the other end of the handle near the blade. as the blade was near her pink willow said to chimera now tell me if i deserve to know your name after this, daisensai
