[@hatakekuro]

Zento grabbed a bokken, replacing his Zanpakuto. The wood felt odd in his hands, as if it was the first time he ever touched such a substance. In all truth, he preferred this than a blade, there was less risk in getting killed, although he supposed that was the point of them using the bokken. 

Zento walked a few feet way from were the tiger was standing and took up his stance. When using a sword, the way a person stands, moves, and holds the weapon is vital in determining how much control they have, how fast they can move and how soon they will tire. He stood with his feet and shoulder width apart, his leading foot, or left, slightly forward, almost square on to his opponent. He relaxed and made sure he was 'springy,' on the balls of your feet with knees slightly bent. He made sure to keep this position, making it easy to hold and keep his centre of gravity low and central. He was ready to fight.

Without much of a warning the little tiger ran at Zento. In all truth he was not surprised, he kept his composer and readied himself for his opponents strike. Instead of striking though, she slide under his legs, and readied an attack on Zento's back. [i]Idiot, thrusting forward into the air like that leaves you with no way to dodge an attack effectively.[/i] he thought to himself. His first move was instinct, he used his leading foot to push himself forward and used his momentum to pivot backwards. Placing his leading foot back on the ground, still moving backwards a bit, he brought his hand up, as if he was going to grab her bokken. [b]"Kido #8: Seki!"[/b] Zento yelled as a baseball sized ball of blue light formed on his hand and came in contact with the bottom, or bladed side of the bokken. He wasted no time pushing himself forward with his leading foot, her bokken and her body would be trust upward, her stomach would be wide open for an attack. Bring his bokken forward, he thrust, aiming for her stomach.
