Yoshimitsu, appearing from nowhere, ran toward the captain and the battle-ready hopeful who accompanied him. "Waitwaitwaitwaitwait!" he stammered as he stumbled before them. "Before you start anything, I'm looking for some training too! I hear my Zanpakuto every so often, but I can't communicate back, and I feel like I need that little extra push to reveal its true power to me!" he chattered at a machine gun rate. "I promise not to hurt you, honest, I probably couldn't even if I tried anyway, not against the honorable Captain Kuchiki!" Kurono continued to ramble. "I... OH SHIT" he screamed. "What I meant to say was 'Captain Kuchiki, sir, may I humbly request inclusion in this training exercise, your excellency,' or something like that!" His legs were shaking at this point, in fear that it was already too late and that he would be punished for his lack of courtesy and respect for his superior.

Kyo had decided to entertain himself. He found where his room was and began to meditate. While he meditated he found himself deep in his zanpakuto's world. "HELLO!!" Called the happy girl ready to play with him. "Hello." He responded. They took the time to sit down at a blackjack table and proceeded to play hand after hand. "Now then just play nice we are now on a team so we can't go off on tangents." He spoke to her like a child. "Oh well, Lets keep having fun. In fact go find me some fun." She smiled at him and then kicked him out of the world.
He woke harshly on the bed. With that he went looking for the captain. He proceeded to the captains quarters and knocked. "manners" He whispered to himself.

Every reaction he made just made her grin even more not knowing her reiatsu was still going up. So when he wondered what she meant by copying, while trying to get out of the hug, although she kept a tight grip, she looked up at him. "Copying, you know when I poked you, you then poked me. Thats copying. I poked you to be silly. You really don't know what copying is?" Aya questioned before giggling. "In a way thats soo cute, it's like a little boy denying everything. It's so cute I just can't help but hug you even more!" Aya said as she resumed hugging him, not really noticing that he was trying to break free from her grasp.

"B-but I thought that was your customs? How you said hello or introduce yourself?" Viole asked, with a confused tone. He was completely clueless and had no idea what was going on. She then began to call him cute, when he had never clearly introduced himself "cute? My name is Violeee" he extended the last letter, since she had suddenly squeezed him even tighter than before.

"Nope, not at all we greet one another with a hello or handshake, and if your friends, then what I'm doing right now. Lovers however do something, else but im sure you know what that is." Aya replied letting him go. and then watched his reaction to the cute and stared at him silently, before hugging him again. "Even cuter! I was calling you cute like it was your name, it'd be really weird for parents to name a child cute. I called you it, because you are doing all this adorable stuff!" Aya said squeezing him again.

Kurisa said
Kurisa continued to walk down the halls then eventually they arrived outside of the barracks in the outdoor training grounds, Kurisa took his position in the center of the grounds then turned and spoke as Taiki arrived "So you believe you have what it takes to get into this Squad?...well...rather than answer that question how about you show me?" Kurisa crossed his arms and closed his eyes as he waited for Taiki to make a move "lets see how well you have been trained..."

His legs were shaking at this point, in fear that it was already too late and that he would be punished for his lack of courtesy and respect for his superior.

Taiki watched the captain take position at the center of the training grounds. "I had a feeling I wouldn't be getting off that easily. Fine, I'll take your test..." Ignoring the pain in his shoulder, Taiki prepared himself. He turned his good shoulder towards the captain and brought a loose fist in front of him, leaving the other hand open and at his side. Here we go, the last barrier. As long as I don't underestimate him I'll be fine... Suddenly an unexpected guest arrived and started rambling with no end in sight. Taiki didn't drop his stance and kept his eyes on Captain Kuchiki. "Get out of the way or get a hole through you...and I don't me by me." Taiki said calmly to the interruption. Forgetting about the guest, Taiki shunpoed, reappearing at Kurisa's left side. He appeared off the ground due to his height disadvantage, sweeping his leg in a fierce kick aimed at tba captains head.

Kurisa prepared himself when a random Shinigami suddenly burst into the picture, talking non stop, this was just a little rude but regardless now gave him an idea "I'll tell you what...you want training? well you pass this little test and I'll train you...even give you a recommendation for a Squad if you aren't in one yet.." Kurisa then raised up his left hand as a small blue ball appeared on the back of his hand, this was Bakudo 8 and would send Taiki flying as soon as he made contact..."it seems you may have a new challenger Taiki..."

Yoshimitsu blinked, his eyes widening on opening. "Oh you mean... look I mean, I see what you're going for, but I don't know, I was hoping that something of a test of endurance would allow me to speak to my zanpakuto," rambled the scrawny shinigami. "I mean I was hoping for a captain's guidance, but if you think this is for the best I won't argue, sir," he rambled on, somehow speaking his mind before the split second action finished, as if time was slowed down while he was speaking. "Okay, Taiki, I'll be your opponent!" he continued, still somehow before the kick connected.

Taiki was clever enough to expect that his first moves weren't going to get through a captain's guard, let alone one so direct. Seeing the blue orb, Taiki recognized the kido and was ready to react, bending his knee so his kick only passed by. Landing on his feet, Taiki listened to the change of plans. In a way he was relieved that the test just became a lot less difficult, but was disappointed that he couldn't prove himself directly to the captain. "Alright..." Taiki turned to his new sparring partner and took his stance again. "You know my name, so what's yours?"

Following a quick shunpo behind Taiki, the challenger whispered, "I'm Kurono Yoshimitsu, but my friends just call me Yoshimitsu. You can call me Yoshi is you want me to hate you!" and shunpoed back to his original position. Firmly gripping his zanpakuto, he began to unsheathe the blade. "I'm mighty fast but that's about the one thing I'm good at, so don't worry too much!" he said, swinging his arm out and pointing the tip of his sword in his opponent's direction in the blink of an eye. "Oh sorry, where are my manners? It's nice to meet you! And don't worry, I promise not to maim you too badly!"

Viole listened, but the main word that got stuck in his head was lovers. He had read if this word before in very strange books, which were very vulgar. He blushed as she let him go, shortly after he covered his rosy red cheeks. "B-but I barely know you, how could you call me a lover when-" before he could finish, Aya had squeezed him again making him lose his breath "I am not sure what you mean, were you naming me cute? Please allow me to-" he lost his breath again as he was squeezed

Aya heard him speak up but he suddenly stopped speaking for some reason which made her give him a confused look as she let him go. "What was that, you stopped for some reason. Its like the second time you randomly stopped speaking. Are you okay?" Aya said giving him a curious glance as she tried to make out what he said earlier. "Well to answer the cute question however, I was not naming you cute, you just act cute. I know what your name is, you are a captain after all, be really odd if someone didn't know who the captains were."

The opponent appeared behind Taiki. Taiki's incandescent orange eyes followed Yoshimitsu's movements and didn't so much as flinch when he whispered to him. Yoshimitsu returned to his positioned and continued his cocky speech. By the time he pointed his sword in Taiki's direction Taiki had vanished himself. Shunpoing in front of Yoshimitsu, Taiki struck the back of Yoshimitsu's blade with his palm, pinning it to the ground. "Your fast. The only thing faster is your mouth...and me." With his hand still pinning the sword Taiki lifted up on it and unleashed a kick at the side of Yoshimitsu's face. Though Taiki retained a calmer demeaning this guy had already gotten on his bad side with his undermining talk.

"Funny, I didn't think you'd leave yourself open like that," the nonplussed Yoshimitsu cooed. His smile was quickly replaced by a stern frown. "Hado #11: Tsuzuri Raiden," he chanted, sending an electrical current through his sword. The passage of time slowed in Yoshimitsu's mind as he weighed his options. This guy's gonna have two options the way I see it, and one of them is getting an electrical charge through his body. If he's smart he'll let go, but the current might not be strong enough to actually interrupt his movements, he thought, keeping his poker face. Of course, he'd have to have some kind of inside knowledge of my abilities to be able to judge that, so if he really wants to risk the current he'd have to be an idiot or incredibly reckless.

Taiki was familiar with the spell but gave it no attention because by the time Toshimitsu uttered the spell Taiki's attack was ready to make contact. As soon as Taiki felt his kick drive into Yoshimitsu's face he felt the current enter his body. "Ngh-hraa!" Taiki followed through and pushed off the blade landing a distance away, the electricity running through his body still. That jolt is going to make it hard to move for a bit but he should be just as stunned, if not more after my attack. Let's not give him time to recover. Taiki raised his palm towards Yoshimitsu. "Hado #31, Shakkaho!" The energy built in his hand and Taiki fired the red fireball.

"G-gyaaah!" howled Yoshimitsu as he was kicked across the floor of the barracks. Any time you want to start talking to me would be great, sword, he thought as he came crashing into a wall. "N-nice!" he called out, his left leg twitching above the rest of his crumpled form just in time to see the fireball launch. He's really mad isn't he... Yoshimitsu grimly questioned as he quickly adjusted his legs to flash-push himself off the wall just in time for the kido to fly past him, cratering the area that he was at rest in moments before. But before he had time to react to anything else, a scream of "OWOWOWOWOW!" echoed through the barracks. "ACK! Jesus, have you ever given yourself a shunpo-scrape on your chin?" he said, immediately spreading medical ointment across his bloodied chin-line. "Well, I'd better get serious now, since it seems like you've been the whole time," he muttered, taking a defensive stance, holding his sword with two hands in front of his face.

Taiki watched as his kido flew and exploded, the target managing to escape. Taiki was already dashing towards where Yoshimitsu had shunpoed only to be stopped in his tracks by the sudden cry of pain. He watch his opponent apply ointment to his chin a little confused. What is with this guy? He talks big and then acts...like this. I don't know whether to knock him off his pedestal or feel bad for him...oh well. Nevertheless, I can't underestimate him. Taiki focused and could still feel Tsuzuri Raiden affecting him a little. He listened to Yoshimitsu talk about getting serious. "I was hoping that wasn't you serious...I don't know how much more of the clown act I can take." Taiki reached behind him and withdrew his zanpakutou from an equipment pouch. Flicking the combat knife's blade open, he held it in a reverse grip. "Hado #4, Byakurai." Taiki pointed his index finger at Yoshimitsu, firing a stream of lightning ton force him to move.

As the blue lightning erupted from Taiki's finger, Yoshimitsu quickly sidestepped out of the way of the attack. "Don't worry, I can tell that it's time to stop clowning around. You've made that abundantly clear, really," he replied, shunpoing to the side of Taiki's extended arm. His sword now facing down, he swung up at his opponent's arm. "Don't worry, I won't cut too deep!" he said as the blade made its rapid approach.

Shiro flicked his Zanpakuto and cut through the smoke then Spiritual energy began warping and manifesting itself around his Zanpakuto as he pulled it back behind his head then slashed forwards releasing a large arc of his own Spiritual energy at the Captain. If there was one thing Shiro knew what to do with his Spiritual energy it was to be able to use it in an offensive way and right now this was all he had due to his Zanpakuto spirit and him not getting along as of right now...but...maybe in time that would change

Miyume swung her legs at the Captain but he dodged her flurry of kicks relatively easily. His right leg came at her shortly after, knocking her back a considerable distance away from him. She dragged her hands on the ground, allowing her to quickly regain balance ahead of time. Spiritual pressure could be sensed coming from Shiro's direction and from the power alone, it was going to become something big. Shiro's going to release something like that already? Well, this is supposed to be a teamwork thing so if he can't work as a team. Then I'll make my plans revolve around his recklessness so it can look as if we're working as a team. Miyume thought before shunpoing farther away from the Captain so she wouldn't be caught by Shiro's technique.

Ōhi Sango

"To find out x if 7x plus 5 equal 1056 you have to do 1056 minus 5, which is is 1051. Then that answer must be divided by 7 to get 150.1428571428571 which is the equality of x... Easy" With the sudden stop of the sound of a stick being dragged through the mud, the equation was completed. Sango raised her head, scrutinising her work with a soft but straight face. Her flaming navy eyes followed the entrenched lines that she scratched into the dirt beneath her legs as she sat comfortable on the mud. Her irises wondered a small distance in front of the equation to meet with the joyous sight of murky pond water. 'That's wonderful Ōhi, I see I've taught you well" A familiar voice echoed within her mind; a smile could almost be heard causing Sango to smile herself. "Thank you Densen! You're the best! It was an easy question though, do you think you can give me another one? This time something harder! This was just too easy" She grinned softly, causing her eyes to squint happily. 'Remember what I've told you, don't be impatient, I wanted to make sure you knew this formula thoroughly before we moved on. But, from what I can see, you're doing really good. Well, I guess we should move on. Alright, I'll give you a hard one' "Yay! Thanks Densen!" Sango leaned forward, dipping her whole hand into the cold, cloudy water of the pond she resided next to before pulling her hand out with a small pool of water in her palm and wiped the dirt below her to erase her completed equation. To an outsider, it would look as if she was talking to herself, when in fact, she was talking to someone she loved dearly. Her best friend and Zanpakuto; Densen.

Chie stood her watching the Captains movements as well as everyone elses, and so far they were far from working together and that much was clear. Chie saw the incoming Hado so she shunpoed in the air to avoid the attack. So when Shiro released a large amount of spiritual Pressure and attempted to send an arc of energy at the Captain, Chie saw Miyume back away from everything, which made Chie sigh, as she went behind the Captain. That idiot girl, that is why we are here, so we don't feel we have to back away from our own allies. Chie thought as she held her sword horizontally at the captain. "Hado number 32, Okasen!" A yellow light grew along the edge of her blade before firing off into her own arc at the back of the captain.
