A simple grassy area where anything from swordplay to kido can be used and taught.

Walking slowly into the Training Field, Nero made his way through the trees, the tall bush, and then around the watery areas of the Field, before finally coming to the place where he could feel the spiritual energy of his opponent. They had both just joined the squad, and yet, she had requested a spar with someone already. Out of sheer boredom Nero took it up, wanting to test out his new found powers as best he could. Hopefully they were what he had expected. It would be...irritating...to say the least, if they were not. With his zanpaktou being the simple cross on his neck, he had to rely on his reshi and reiatsu ability, something he had carried over, thankfully. Though, he still needed to work. This would be a workout to test himself. To see how much he needed to go.
Walking out from the shade of a final tree, Nero spotted his opponent, Yuki, sitting on the grass, in the sunlight. Not spotting her blade yet, Nero walked forward, moving his left hand at his side. Some of his yellow reiatsu flashed slightly under his blood red coat, before settling down. It took the form of a simple wakizashi, the hilt jet black, five inches long, an inch and a half wide. The guard was a three bladed shuriken, his own personal symbol. The blade was around two and a half feet long, slightly curved, coming into a very sharp point at the end. The sheath was jet black as well, complimenting the hilt and guard, the guard a bright golden color.
Letting his footsteps be heard as he walked, Nero walked up to Yuki, walking past her about five feet, and then stopping. His hands now in his pockets, Nero just looked up to the sky. "So, I take it your my opponent."

She opens her eyes and glows with her pure white Rietsu. She floats upward and stands, her sword being concealed under her. She smiles warmly and bows.
Hello, my name is Yuki Avalon. It is very nice to meet you. I believe that I am your opponent. I would be honored to fight you. She opens her hands and her hand glows white. Her zanpaku-to, which is about three feet long, floats up and into her hand. The blade is very skinny and sharp. The hand-guard is in the shape of a cross, white in coor. The hilt is also pure white. She smiles and points it at her opponent.
So, shall we begin. She smiles warmly, her purple eyes glistening off of the sunlight. The clouds are moving slightly, indicating a breeze.

Still staring into the sky, Nero closed his eyes as he felt the rise in the energy of his opponent. Already she was letting her reiatsu leak from her, ready to use it at a moments notice. Very nice. He, however, would let his reiatsu lie dormant...for the moment. Oh, how this was nostalgic. A new recruit, and his first battle. It felt like he was his old self again...
Only he wasn't. Sighing, Nero let his eyes slowly open, his cat-like yellow eyes flickering as he turned around, staring at Yuki. Bowing slightly, Nero returned her gesture. He wasn't one for formalities, especially before a fight. However, he would follow them for now. "Nero Arco." Reaching for his blade, Nero grasped the jet black hilt, slowly pulling out the short blade. It was smaller than he was used to, but then with a smaller and lighter blade he would be able to move quicker...more deadly strikes as well. As always, Nero said
"You can make the first move, Yuki."

She smiled very sweetly. She walked very gracefully towards Nero, closing in the gap between them.
I shall be honest with you, Nero. I do not just jump into battle by throwing the first punch. I find it foolish and a very incompetent that people do that in the first place. She paused, glancing at his blade in a almost analytical way. She smiled.
That is such a beautiful blade you wield. Short and swift, am I right. I get the feeling that it has seen much training. But, as have mine. I will let you go first, my friend. I would like to see what the blade is capable of in your hands. She smiled, her soothing voice carrying across the field. The sun is covered with a cloud, giving them temporary shade from the glaring light.

Sighing, Nero looked down to his own blade, it's surface shining in the sunlight. It seemed to tell it's own story. The fact it was just his own creation just made it seem that much more real to whoever saw it. So be it. Nero would keep that much to himself. Looking back up at Yuki, Nero allowed himself a little bit of a smirk on the right edge of his mouth. He had already made the first move, and yet Yuki had yet to see it. When she had walked in front of him, she had gone into something he had planned the second he had stopped to look at the sky. There was a metal wire in front of him, thin and almost invisible. The tiny reiatsu source Nero had used to make it had been made when the wakizashi had, trailing behind him while he moved. Yuki had just stepped on it.
"As you wish, Yuki. But I'll have to tell you...it's not the blade you should worry about." Moving the sword and pointing it at the ground, the movement would seem like he was simply getting ready to attack. Instead, however...
"Byakurai."
At the simple work, electricity sparked from his blade, striking the metal wide beneath him. The current transferred to the wire, now running along it to where Yuki stood upon it. If she didn't move, she would feel the strike as if it had hit her. Well, the electricity, anyway.

She smiled and looked down. she sliced the wire and in one, gracefull motion, she backflipped away. The current of electricty was stopped before its intended destination.
Now, now, honey, no tricks. Let us be fair fighters. She smiled and nodded, ready for whatever he would throw at her next.

"In battle, fair, is a word seldom used" Nero said aloud, as soon as Yuki was done talking. As soon as she had looked down, Nero had moved. The small blade had it's advantages, but it was also a very short ranged weapon. The attack had been meant to either hit her and paralyze her for a split second, giving him the time he needed to launch an attack, or distract her long enough for Nero to move. The second option was just as good as the first. As soon as her eyes left him, Nero flew forward, following her trajectory with his eyes. As soon as she had landed, Nero's hand flew upwards.
It was a simply stab, but it would never hit. Following in with the strike, Nero moved the blade downwards, stabbing it into the ground. Using the momentum from the strike, Nero quickly used the blade as a pivot, flipping forward, his hand still on the blade sending at her a downward axe-kick with his left leg, and then finishing with letting himself come upright, pulling the blade from the ground and then slicing at Yuki with it. It would carry with it the power of the stab, and then the slice as well, using the momentum from both as it's own.

As the blade made contact with her, she blasted her spiriatul pressure into her hand and grabbed it. Her palm was bleeding heavily, but she smiled. It was clear, that blade would not leave her hand so easily.
Fair is law, in my book. She took her zanpaku-to and touched it againts his blade.
Now, would you like to try that move agian? She had no sarcasm in her voice. It was clear that she was impressed, but dissapointed at the same time. Her eyes kept with his, but her perifferal vision was in tune also, granting her the ability to see his whole body.

(Ah, you forgot about the Axe-kick. I'll let it slide this time, but just remember to block everything in an attack, not just the last part. K? :3)
His left hand still next to him, Nero still smirked slightly, now moreso than ever. the small blade in his right hand seemed to pulsate with reiatsu, as a yellow aura seemed to engulf him. His left hand moving slightly, Nero's palm was out flat next to him, pointed at Yuki. "Bakudou number nine, Geki." The red haze flew from Nero's left hand, threatening to engulf Yuki. If the haze did, it would paralyze her, long enough to allow Nero to move. Letting go of his wakizashi, Nero moved backwards, the blade quickly seeming to dissolve into reiatsu. That very same reiatsu moved backwards, back into Nero's right hand, reforming back into the blade. Once again, Nero moved forward, this time aiming a quick stab at Yuki's right shoulder, not a death move since there were no arteries or organs. It was still a simple spar after all.

(My apoligies. That last post was very confusing. I had to try and remember all of the moves. I guees I forgot about the kick.)
She smiled happily.
Bakudo number eight, Seki. A barrier blocked both the incoming haze and the blade's strike, reflecting the two attacks strait back at Neru.
(By reflecting the blade, it acts like a ricoche.)
She points both hands directly at Seru, moving in unision with him.
Bakudo number one, Sai.

Letting himself be pushed by both the Sho, and the reverb of the shield, Nero was safely out of the way of the bakudo he had launched. As Yuki's Sho hit him, the bakudo had been disintegrated and dispersed harmlessly into the air. Sliding along the ground, Nero chuckled, as Yuki followed his path. Was she going to try and strike him, or was she simply going to let him throw his own power at her until he ran out? Well, she would soon see that he had more than enough to force her to use her own reiatsu. His left hand flying upwards, Nero had created three small orbs of condensed reshi, made from the particles in the air around him. The small three orbs raced at Yuki, but that wasn't their goal. Before they would hit her, Nero grinned.
"Byakurai."
The three orbs quickly exploded into three electrical currents, making small electrical orbs in the air. It was good he still had that power. Otherwise he might have been done by now. Not having a blade of his own was so...troublesome. This more than made up for it though. If Yuki were to be hit by the orbs, even touch them with her blade, she would recieve a nasty shock like if she ha stuck her finger into an electrical outlet.

(Uhm, I used SAI, not SHO. I just felt that I should tell you.)
Bakudo number eight, Seki. The lightning wa quickly reflected back at Nero.
You should have said the incantation. It was a very weak blast. She stands still, unmoved from the attack. Her gaze is still locked with his movements.

((Oh. Sorry bout that. Damn my eyesight.))
Stopping in his tracks, Nero sighed as once again Yuki failed to even move enough to strike at him. As the lightning flew forward, well...backwards, back at himself, it seemed to simply dissipate, as Nero simply took his reiatsu from the lightning. With that gone, the kido could not be sustained, and simply vanished. Standing there, Nero just gave Yuki a blank stare. "Are you going to move? Or is this a battle."
