[quote=Kurisa] Kaizo had stopped muttering then shunpoed at Rio looking like he was preparing a straight on attack but his spiritual energy had seemingly dropped by some amount at this point which may have confused Rio. Once he got closer to Rio he appeared infront of Rio and sent a punch towards her face with his right fist but his index and middle finger were extended, he then spoke quickly as the direction he was pointing his fingers changed their target to Rio's right shoulder "Hado 1" When the hado fired it seemed to pack a lot more of a punch, Kaizo now twisted his body to his right and brought up his left Shikai aiming to slash Rio across her chest but before he got close he Shunpoed behind her and aimed his left hand at her, his index and middle finger extended as blue lightning cracked on the tips of them "Hado 4" The hado then fired aiming to pierce either of Rio's shoulders but although that appeared to be the target he fully intended only to give her superficial damage across the top of her arm as not to actually harm her... [/quote] [u]Rio Okotaru Darishimo[/u] Rio allowed Kaizo to close in on her, feeling the drop in his spiritual energy. He was most certainly up to something so she ignored the drop and watched his action, keeping herself blocked. As he pointed his finger's at her face and changed direction, Rio aimed to knee him while his gut was exposed, crouching out of the direction of the Hado before shunpo'ing behind him. He would of then shunpo'ed behind her and hit Rio's right shoulder with Hado 4, skimming the top of it. Instead of trying to get away from him, Rio quickly crouched and span in her position to aim a cut on top of his stomach before pointing both of her index fingers at Kaizo's Shikai's and performing Hado 1 on them at the same time. If the Hado hit, she would of used both of her Shikai's to cut across the tops of his thighs before he could knee her in the face, then do a back flip backwards into a stance. At this point, she wasn't worried about how much damage she received, she just wanted to cause as much damage to Kaizo as she could. It was clear that his level of skill was much higher than that of an unseated Shinigami, which made her wonder where exactly did he come from to have such power.
