Bleach: A New Dawn

Ooh, Arrancars. I already have Resureccion ideas.

"See that's all I needed to hear!" Yoshimitsu said, falling onto his back again. "If you had really come after me there I'd have been in trouble," he panted, wiping blood from his ravaged chin. "You're a hell of a lot stronger than I am, and I knew I wouldn't be able to disguise that fact for long," he continued, drawing ointment from his side pocket and applying more to his wound. "Maybe one day when I get my Shikai I'll take you on again!" he said, pulling himself onto his feet. "Right now, there's an emergency to attend to, if I may be dismissed that is, Captain."

Taiki was surprised. Yoshimitsu hadn't shown any hint of this kind of skill yet. He was more and more confused by this guy with every move. Was he fool or is that just an act? Either way it was annoying. Taiki swung up with his other hand blocking Yoshimitsu's sword and locking the two of them in a stand off. "Trying to change his mind would take longer than just getting this over with. If you concentrated you'd sense that the enemies are focusing on the seireitei and haven't targeted any innocents. And don't underestimate our other comrades. Most of them can handle this level of hollow. If things were really bad I'm sure the captain would do what he had to..." Taiki heard the captain give his thoughts on the situation. "There. Now that you've got his "final word" will you get a hold of yourself?" Taiki's blocking ARM was starting to struggle due to his earlier encounter with the captain so he decided to try and separate from Yoshimitsu. He pushed off the ground and raised a swift knee in between them aiming at Yoshimitsu's chin.

Yoshimitsu quickly jarred his head backwards, but couldn't get enough distance to avoid the strike. His opponent's knee connected with the edge of his previously wounded chin, sending him flying into the air a few feet, crashing down in front of the attacker. Shit- His mind tried to put words together, but he shock of the impact was too great and he lay dazed for a moment before coming to. A moment later, however, he jumped to his feet. "Nice Shot! You got me right in a vulnerable spot, good aim!" he called to his opponent, wiping blood from the bottom of his face. "Alright, I really needed that to get my blood rushing!" he said, quickly changing back to a fighting stance. "C'mon, let's go!" the shinigami said, gently bouncing on the balls of his feet, passing his sword between hands quickly. His energy was completely different from the start of the duel; he seemed more alive. "Come at me again, let's do this!" he said, resting his sword in his right hand, and beckoning his opponent forward with his left.

I kind of rushed that last post because my keyboard was messing with me so I wanted to keep it as brief as possible.

Taiki didn't expect to hear the captains decision but after being around him for a for this short time he already concluded that it wasn't and out-of-character thing for him. Taiki decided to keep going. If he wanted to see what Taiki could do he was going to show him. Taiki took his stance turning towards Yoshimitsu. He clenched and unclenched his hand, feeling the electrical current no longer affecting him. "Stay focused Yoshimitsu. The faster we demonstrate our abilities the faster we can hit the frontlines." Taiki dashed around towards Yoshimitsu's right side, closing the distance very quickly. Getting within range Taiki motioned as if he was going to throw a punch and suddenly shunpoed at the last second. He reappeared behind Yoshimitsu's left shoulder among a chop at the back of his neck. If it made contact he'd be paralysed by the strike to the nerve.

Yoshimitsu's arm shot like a rocket to catch the wrist of the attacking Taiki. A sudden burst of adrenaline and spiritual pressure rose up in the youthful shinigami's body. Turning to face his assailant, he held their wrist in an iron grip that seemed inappropriate for someone of his size and stature. "I would have preferred if the Captain were to make the final call here," he said in a frightening monotone, "but I guess you're not intent on waiting." He drew his sword forth, slicing at his opponent's chest.

Kurisa continued to watch the two spar then he heard the alarm go off then closed his eyes "Continue...I will send someone in my place...there are many Captains that can deal with this issue..." Kurisa had Akio come to him, then Kurisa gave Akio the orders and sent him off to deal with the threat and lead the majority of his Squad into battle so they could do their part, once Akio left Kurisa opened his eyes and spoke "Do not stop...you are here to impress me not mess around"

"With all due respect, Captain, if there's an emergency it's more important that we protect the Soul Society than to have a sparring match!" Yoshimitsu rebutted. "Taiki, you would have been sure to kick my ass if we kept going, there's no question. I talk a big game but the skill and power differential is obviously stacked in your favor," the shinigami admitted. "And right now, I'd rather die saving lives than end up in the hospital and not be able to protect those who need helping!" he shouted. "...If it would be alright with you, that is, Captain."

Taiki countered, quickly moving his knife to intercept the blade as he pulled his arm in. As he did so he turned his body towards Yoshimitsu, Taiki's movements speeding up again as the effect of Hado 11 wore off. With his ARM drawn in, Taiki aimed his open palm at Yoshimitsu and thrust it forward at his chest. "Tessho."

Yoshimitsu launched himself backwards away from his opponent, his sword following shortly behind him. Even so, Taiki's open palm still managed to graze him, sending him off balance and careening into another wall. Pitiful, whispered a dull, unenthused voice into Yoshimitsu's ear. "Hey time out, did you just hear that!?" the young Shinigami said, righting himself and brushing dirt off his uniform. "Sword, was that you?" he queried to no avail. His blade remained silent. Great, not only do I not know my Zanpakuto's name but it's openly mocking me. His mind became clouded like a storm front had just rolled in. "Never mind the time out, I guess I need to keep going," Yoshimitsu sighed, taking his defensive stance once more.

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.

"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.

"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.
