[u]Lucy vs Shoske[/u]
Lucy was jumping from roof to roof, looking for a place called the Shino Academy. She had only been to the Seireitei a couple of times so she had no idea where the academy was at. Suddenly, she skidded to a stop and backflipped, landing on another roof [b]"Come out, I know you're following me. I can nearly taste the killing intent in the air and I don't have time for this. I've been looking for the Shino Academy and I'm in a bad mood right now"[/b] Shoske jumped out from an alleyway, landing on a roof across from her. "Not bad, I was waiting to confront you somewhere more suitable but this will have to do" He said, unsheathing one of his zanpakutos. Lucy instinctively went for her one sword "......." A bead of sweat went down the back of her head [b][i]Thats right, I left my sword with Hozumi[/i][/b] Shoske chuckled "Left your sword at home?" He removed his second sheathed zanpakuto and tossed it to her. Lucy raised an eyebrow, catching the sword and quickly unsheathing it [b]"You sure this is a good idea?"[/b] Shoske shrugged "Don't know, only one way to find out" He grinned, shunpoing in front of her and sending a quick slash towards her neck. Her eyes widened, moving back to barely evade the slash. She leaped back. landing and skidding on another roof [b]"Phew, you're faster than I thought. Guess you're not a typical shinigami are you?"[/b] Shoske chuckled "You have no idea"

The two shunpoed forward, meeting halfway and clashing blades. Lucy quickly overpowered Shoske, sending him flying towards the ground. Shoske skidded and flipped across the ground, barely managing to land on his feet. As he looked up, Lucy was already thrusting the sword towards his head. Shoske moved his head to the right, slashing diagonally with his zanpakuto. Lucy jumped back, evading the slash. Before she could counter, Shoske had already followed up with a series of slashes, each with great speeds and precise strikes. Lucy managed to parry each slash, reaching out and grabbing his arm. She squeezed his arm tightly [b]"Face it, you're outclassed in every way. Just give up[/b] Shoske moved his head back. Lucy's eyes widened as she quickly released her grip [b]"Don't you dar-"[/b] Shoske quickly moved his head forward, his forehead meeting hers. The impact sent her flying through the nearby buildings, causing a commotion. Shoske rubbed his forehead "Holy shit, that was like hitting steel" 

From the rubble, Shoske's 2nd zanpakuto quickly went flying towards his head. He moved his body and caught his zanpakuto with ease. He grinned "Finally, some killing intent" Lucy came walking out of the rubble, a crimson glow surrounding her body. As she walked towards him, all of the crimson glow began to flow towards both her feet and her hands. The glow began to take shape, resembling the claws and feet of a beast. She dropped down to all fours, digging her fingertips into ground. Shoske sheathed his second zanpakuto and grabbed the hilt of the other one with both hands. He let out a burst of golden reiatsu, a wide grin forming. For once in so many years, Shoske felt excited. The golden reiatsu began to surround his zanpakuto as he charged towards her. She kicked off the ground and ran towards him at full speeds, a giant trail of dust behind her "RYODAN!!!"[b]"BARIKIBA!!!![/b] The two met half way, his blade and golden reiatsu clashing with her reiatsu imbued claws and crimson reiatsu. The two masses of reiatsu collided, causing an explosion and dust cloud.

Shoske was panting, blood dripping from the cuts which covered his body. Lucy was standing in front of him, her crimson eyes returning to their emerald green color. She came out relatively unscathed. The cloak which hide her horns were burnt to a crisp [b]"Do you still want to continue?"[/b] She coldly asked. Shoske grinned "As long as I breathe, I won't stop fighting!!" He charged towards her, about to cleave her in to [b]"Bakudo 61 Rikujokoro. Bakudo 63 Saju Sabuku"[/b] Before he could strike, the two Bakudos had trapped and immoblized him. Despite that, he mustered all his strength and still tried to move. Lucy looked him dead in the eyes [b]"That look in your eyes, I've seen that look. If you continue down that path, it will only lead to your own destruction"[/b] Shoske chuckled "But what other choice do I have?" Lucy turned around, her hair waving with the wind. She began to walk away "Its the opposite way, you've been heading the wrong way the entire time" Lucy turned, mildy confused [b]"What?"[/b] Shoske smirked "The Shino Academy, thats what you were looking for right?" She raised an eyebrow [b]"Are you sure you want to tell me? For all you know, I can be a big bad guy or something"[/b] Shoske chuckled "No, when we clashed blades I could tell you were good deep down inside" Lucy smiled, turning back around [b]"Thanks"[/b] She shunpoed off, the bakudos trapping Shoske shattering shortly after. He used his zanpakuto to hold himself up "Looks like its back to Squad 4 again. And afterwards, some more training" He said, sheathing his blade and limping off to Squad 4 barracks.
