Squad 3's Mission The boy just missed the attack. He stood there as Hikari shunpo'd behind him, not turning around. Miyume seemed to get angry, and he simply smirked, knowing this would be to his advantage. She rushed in, but he suddenly disappeared, reappearing slightly to the right, the sword being held in an almost entirely different method as he swung it straight at Miyume's stomach. --- Ryan simply put up his guard, blocking the spiritual energy wave. [i]If he had controlled that better than he did, I would have needed to dodge... Good thing we're doing this training...[/i] "Focus... That blade will work the same way as those spiritual energy waves will... The more you control your energy, the more deadly it will be." He shunpo'd next to him, swinging the hilt of his zanpakuto at Shiro. --- John shunpo'd to the side, seeing the byakurai go past the general area he would have been. It seemed off from where he was exactly, like the captain was simply playing with him. He knew that's probably what he was doing, but in his shikai, it somewhat enraged him to think this. He sprinted directly at Kurisa, then curved his run slightly so that he would go right past him if he continued. He then shunpo'd forward a short distance to increase his speed, dropping onto his back as he went to slide towards him. He twisted his torso and pushed off the ground so that he would fly forward with his claws swinging in each direction.
