Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is just a small courtyard surrounded by the barracks and mess hall. It has the basic requirements for practice: dummies, kido targets, a small bunch of trees to train in agility, the weird spinning things to practice hand to hand combat, the works. And in another part that is slightly outside the barracks there is an area that has been sealed off to those who don't have the captains permission. That room is used for practice fighting false hollow and on celebration days the weird watermelon hollow things.

Mitsuho walks up casually skimming through pages of a book he found in the library. As he walks he sees his lieutenant sitting on the hardwood floor near the edge, lounging and reading. "Why 'ello Ryuu. How is your day? Mitsuho makes a quick shunpo to sit upon the roof and lets his legs hang over the edge as he reads his book and looks out at the few squad members practicing in the training grounds.

"I see." Mitsuho looked up at the empty sky. The sun beat down on Seiretei and all of Rukongai. "Hmm. I wonder if anything will happen. Of course, things only happen if you make them happen." "Wise words my shinigami friend" "Thanks my friend." Mitsuho looked up at the sky. 'To think my Zanpakutou can control all the sky and create the storms.' "Oh I apologize, I was talking to my Zanpakutou and thinking. I must make you uncomfortable Ryuu."

"I've heard that Vizards seem to be gather and throwing their lot in with Akira. I won't lie, at one point I almost thought we would lose to Akira. Nearly wanted to join him myself. I know that this could get me killed. But I tell you this now." Mitsuho looked his Lieutenant Ryuu in the eyes. "I'm no less loyal now then the captain-commander." He turned his head back towards the sky. "I've been thinking. We need all the Vizards we can get to match power with Akira. Your my vice-captain, I respect your opinion. I'm going to become a Vizard. Would you respect me any less if I did?" Mitsuho turned his head in the direction of West Rukon. "I'm sorry, I must go. I will expect an answer when I return. Good fay to you." Mitsuho stood and flash stepped away dropping his book as he disappeared into the distance

After a long rest--extremely long rest--Ryuu walks out from the barracks, sword in hand. He unseathes his sword, placing it in the grassy area. Ryuu takes a seat in front of his blade and starts meditating, training with Akuma.
