This area is surrounded on both sides with stones and in the front a huge waterfall with one path leading from rukongai to the waterfall with her small lake. Surrounding the lake are all kinds of plants to give it a lost world feel, as if nature itself was still undisturbed by interference of others while the lake is filled with fish, vegetation for the fish and a rock in the middle of the lake, just large enough for one man or woman to sit on it.

A slow soft breeze of wind came against Alex his face while he walked towards the appointed area for his seath, that was atleast depending on how he scored on this test. When he stood in front of the waterfall he started to pluck a straw of grass, wading to the rock in the middle of the area while slowly munching on the straw and spitting it out as he sat down on the rock.
Now the only thing left is to wait for the captain to show up, couldn't he just call me in his office or something along those lines? Sighing at the weird location for a training he decided to wait while listening to the waterfall behind him.

((Thank you for setting this up smile As well, upon seating you are approved for training just know that I am backed up at the moment.)) Dropping down from the top of the waterfall, Mikhail landed on the surface of the pool bellow. Creating small ripples on the waters surface as he walked about. Placing a hand on the young boys shoulder, Mikhail leaned in and whispered in his ear. "You best be ready." Lifting his left food as he distracted the boy with small talk, Mikhail attempted to ram his knee in the back of Alex's own. Grasping his shoulders tight, he hoped to slam the boy upon his back on the ground he stood upon. "Be aware Alex, this very battle could determine your life, not just your position in my Division." Mocking the naive shinigami just a little bit, enouugh to get him worked up.

( Wich training am i aproved for then?)
"I would like it if you spoke about it in the group version, no matter the strenght of a captain the strenght of a squad is the combined strenght of every member."
As Alex stood up he brushed a single leaf from his jacket, whent to the shore and hung his coat on a treebranch. "So, are you going in shikai or do we fight with them sealed or without our zanpakutoh?"
As he waited for a response of the captain Alex already started to stretch his body, first holding his shoulder with one hand while he rotated his shoulders, leaning on his ankle's as he bent them slowly backwards.
When his legs and arms where ready for his feeling he lifted first his left leg up to above his head as he pulled it slightly, repeating the process with his right leg.

((Well, if you achieve the proper seat I will teach you the Hakuda you requested. That is of course that you are placed within the appropriate seat in order to receive the training. As well, you don't have Shikai so thats out of the question.)) "I wasn't refering to strength in anyway. Seeing as how it is simply you and myself, the Squad as a whole is irrelevant. Furthermore, strength is something that I take pride in as a master of hand-to-hand combat. I understand however that there will always be someone stronger than myself." Slightly put off by his students miniscule arrogance, Mikhail decided to let it pass. He'll be put in his place soon enough. Releasing his grasp upon the boy, Mikhail side stepped and relinquished his Haori onto a rather large stone a few feet off. Dislocating several of his joints that were blatantly obvious such as his shoulders and elbows, he popped them out only to place them back where they belonged. This was his way of stretching everything within his body. With the acrobatics and martial arts background he had, he knew that dislocating his joints was part of his hand-to-hand abilities. Making sure that the tendens and appropriate tissue meant to hold them would not tear upon dislocation, Mikhail tested their elasticity before every fight.
Rotating his shoulders a full 360 each, Mikhail shrugged. "If you wish to use your Zanpakuto then by all means go ahead. I however will not need it." As rude and as cocky as his statement had sounded, Mikhail in truth didn't need his Zanpakuto. Rarely did he ever use his release against anyone, even someone twice as strong as himself. He was a devoted hand-to-hand practitioner and therefore the use of his blade came sparatically and once in a blue moon.

( The shikai mentioned was your shikai, not both of them although that would be quite funny to see with both of them turning into gauntlets )
"Same here then, never got the sword thing quite right. Maybe that is also the reason mine is so small but alas i digress."
It was true after all, he used his dagger-like zanpakutoh rarely in a fight, if at all in the first place. Not because Alex feared it would not be good enough or something along those lines but rather since he just sucked at using weapons in a different way then with his martial arts know-how.
When his warming up and stretching was done he unbuttoned his shirt while keeping it on and stands with the legs shoulder-width apart and the right foot a half-step behind the left foot. Both feet where placed parallel, with the right heel slightly off the ground. He held the left fist vertically about six inches in front of his face at eye level as he placed his right fist beside the chin and the elbow tucked against his ribcage to protect the body. When he tucked his elbows against his ribcage he crouched slightly while keeping his balance and mobility as good as it could be without losing at defense or attack.
"Hopefully you don't mind it that i unbuttoned the shirt, it is just that i don't want that the buttons are pulled off in this fight."
It didn't matter to him so why would it matter for his opponent right? was what Alex thought while waiting to the moment his captain would soon attack.

Without anymore chit chat, Mikhail leaned forward just have a degree. Sliding his left foot forward as well, he kicked off into a Shunpo and rocketed at the young boy. Flicking his hands free of their tense positions, Mikhail loosened up his muscles and sent a speedy series of midsection blows. Using a sort of one two combination rhythematic pattern, Mikhail lashed out with his left hand, aiming his in the midsection and then followed dup with his right, aiming low. Finally, he striked in the dead center with both hands, open palmed, using but the heels of his hands. Mikhail followed through with each strike, putting in as much kinetic energy as he could pack withen them. As his hands (hopefully) made contact, they'd (would) released the kinetic energy in a pulsating fashion that would radiate throughout the area struck. This form of Hakuda was really the only kind he used. It was all based on the transfer of energy and relied heavily on the ability to build up and contain large amounts of energy.

As Mikhail started to attack Alex tensed up while increasing his defense and stance for a better withstanding of each blow, knowing that it would be foolish to try and dodge the attacks thrown at him. Against a normal fighter like before he would probably dodge while aiming a kick but that was not possible in this situation, not with speed being the main factor against a hand to hand using captain.
As he endured all the hits thrown at him he began having breathing problems for a moment after the point blank one, increasing his reiatsu while solidifying it to at least be able to withstand the attacks.
"Come on, is using those speed attacks all that you can?" As he spoke he slowly and carefully changed his stance to a more anchored stance, waiting for a few moments until he could grab a hold of a arm or a leg to perfom a throw so he could at least get his opponent on the floor.

Me. I'm the only one that knows it for the time being.
For the time being, I'm going to post pone the lesson though. I've recently become SWAMPED with school work seeing as how I shall be missing 2 weeks (starting Oct 6) of it. While I will have access to my laptop, I won't be able to teach you properly until I am sure my school work and grades are secure.
