[quote=AbigailTenshi] 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. [/quote] Kaizo watched as his Hado passed her shoulder then he saw her blade come towards him, he was going to dodge but instead decided against it and let it cut him across the top of the stomach, then at that point he shunpoed back avoiding her further attacks then reverted his Shikai to it's sealed state and sheathed it then he let out a sigh and closed his eyes then opened them and spoke "I give up...I just can't keep up anymore...sorry to cut it short but as you can see...If we carried on I'd have to fork out for a hospital bill I couldn't pay..." Kaizo then smiled at Rio and spoke again "I can see why you're the 7th seat of Squad 6..." Kaizo had lied about not being able to keep up anymore but he didn't want her to know that...so he did make it look like he was somewhat tired from the fight...if things had carried on who knows what would have happened...he could of won then again so could she...he had no clue what else she had up her sleeves...after all she could have been holding back but then again so was he...regardless even if he had won it would be no good...no way to repay her for taking him in...She was a 7th seat and on the rare chance she could have been defeated by an unseated Shinigami it would have probably depressed her and made her feel weak which he didn't want "Phew....I'm really tired after that...I shouldn't have used all my energy in one go" Kaizo said rubbing the back of his head with his right and and smiling a little
