Welcome to Gaia! ::

A large room with three rows of pillars, going all the way up to the twelve foot ceiling, meant to test maneuvering with the sparring session. The beams at the top also run three separate layers, meant for being able to test balance, while on the go.

Heading down to the training room, she could feel the reiatsu of her second in command, as he remained in a single spot. Feeling that he may be training with his zanpakutou, she had decided to remain quiet, as she knew that she didn't have to worry about concealing her reiatsu. With it in a state of constant suppression, it was impossible to tell that she was around, unless she made herself known. Her reiatsu problem would often make the new recruits second guess her power, unable to feel the power that welled up inside of her.

Slowly sliding the door open, the tips of her fingers peeked out from the corner of the door. With a bow, she then entered into the training room with quiet footsteps. Seeing that he was playing a game, she felt the need to gain insight to what he was doing in this game. As she stepped closer, she held her long locks of hair back, so that she may keep from bother him, making her way quietly over his shoulder.

"Sharpening your mind, I see," she finally announced, smiling to, Katai.

Standing upright, she placed her hands behind her back, giving a bit of a playful grin. With her chin tucked into her collar, she wanted to show her admiration toward his efforts. She liked how he didn't seem to waste time, even when left alone.

Kawashii, looked over the board, concerned about the predicament that it looked like, Shinseki, had him in. Not sure how he would take it, if she had tried to help, she figured he would learn on his own. Games were about that purpose anyway. Practical learning, in fun form.

"Such the flatterer, Shin-Sama," she said, affectionately. "O-Ruoanashingu, would like you."

Closing her eyes for a brief moment, O-Ruoanashingu, appeared in a wisp, forming from the sword to her left. A blonde with a deep tan formed in a powder blue tulip shaped dress, with eyes of the same color. The four angelic wings on her back were pure white, making her look like an angel. As she gave a bow, she looked around the room, thinking that she was going to be challenged again.

"What level are we going for today," she asked, smiling to the though of stretching her wings.

With a grin, Kawashii, placed her hand over her face, trying to hide the fact that she was having an enjoyable moment at the expense of her second. She would dare show this side of herself to the lower seats, knowing that they were being harsh on each other. It was different with Zanpakutou though. They knew their wielder well enough to poke fun without hitting vital sensitive areas. That was if they felt that it was necessary.

"Now now, Shinseki-Kun, you shouldn't poke fun at flaws," she lectured in a light manner. "You should assist them in being better in the areas that they are lacking."

O-Ruoanashingu, took to the scene almost directly after her words were uttered, realizing that she was brought to converse with the others. moving to the opposite side of the board, from, Kawashii, watching the match of wits, with man vs weapon.

"Katai-Kun, you seem to in a bit of a pickle here," the blonde dark skinned figure admitted to him. "I would opt. to conceding, and coming to play with us."

Kawashii, looked to the innocent face of her Zanpakutou, wondering what she had in mind, as she listened to the words of Katai's conceit. A little relived, she began to realize that he knew when he was outmatch. It was good for him to know, in case he was facing something that might get him killed.

"What, pray tell, did you have in mind," she asked, the princess looking figure, trying to guess in her mind, what kind of things might be running through O-Ruoanashingu's.

"Well, it's more of a survival trial," O-Ruoanashingu, admitted. "Now, I estimated your last time going up against the Captain here, you happen to last for a whole two minutes twenty eight seconds. I'm proposing a handicap. She won't be aloud to even use Shikai, You'll be able to see how well she fairs without the use of hers or my abilities." As she turned to face, Kawashii, she spoke out, "Yes dear, that means no purple glowing powers either."

(Sorry, it was taking so long. My computer was stolen. I will try to get to the library more often. P smile

O-Ruoanashingu, gave a gentle smile, as she responded, "You're Captain is much better at using her hands. I merely provide her the extra support she may need, when her hands are rendered ineffective."

Kawashii, believed this to be an endurance test for her, as her Zanpakutou suggested the refusal of using her power. Knowing that the caring nature of her closest friend, she figured that she wouldn't allow anything serious to happen to her, if she was placed in a tight spot.

"Her faith in me makes me want to do it," she said with a smile, having her confidence renewed. "She probably thinks I rely on her too much." With a little stretch of her arms, she continued, "Maybe I do. I haven't had a full on chance to use Hakuda anyways."

(Very sorry. I lack an excuse. I guess I over looked it.)
