"Oh, I see," Hikari said with a smirk once she shifted and parried his attack, then forcing an attack through. She had a decent amount of speed and power, Hikari could see the talent within her and see that she wasn't taking it completely lightly atleast. Once the hilt was close to his throat he simply side-stepped the attack and poked at her side with his blade, she would notice an increase of speed and if he was to hit then it would have come out as just a graze on her side. He figured she had another way of going about not getting hit, which is why he increased his speed to see it.

It had already been a month since the seireitei got a new head captain. Central 46 was still in shambles. And everyone was trying to be stronger and stronger. Since then Gio had rearranged the training schedule of squad 5 in hopes to maximize efficiency despite their numbers. However Gio needed to be trained harder as well. So he took advantage of the current state of affairs and went to the Sect, to Train. The Eastern Branch of the Sect agreed to train him, and by train I mean shackle him with weight seals on his hands and legs and forbid him from using Kido as they ganged up on him.
Though brutal, it was only the beginning. The first few session were one on one or two on one fights in rapid succession and the people were clearly holding back. However by the end of the month, it was one against a dozen, with Shikai’s. It forced him to learn on his feet, and react. They drilled into him that there is more than technique in combat. Its cool to have some skills under your belt but it also helps if you make shit up on the fly. He also found out that a personal style was much more effective than an established or copied style. To this regard Giovanni practiced flying, since it was an ability granted to him in shikai it gave him an eclectic edge that he began to use as a part of his style. While he was grateful for the opportunity he wasn’t too fond of the fact that he wasn’t allowed to have the seals removed until after his training was done. Which meant he had to wear them as he trained with his squad and if he went on missions. It was a sweet release when they were removed, they method commonly used for speed and endurance training worked. He could honestly say 2 things. One fuck all of them. And 2, he was stronger for the training. He still had a ways to go in many things but he was able to talk away and further train his squad because of it.
Another method of training he used for training his men was Zanpakuto development. For those in squad 5 that had achieved their shikai on of their Zanjutsu days was dedicated to improving the use of their shikai. This involved fighting with the weapon, performing Jinzo, and even trying to creat a fighting style that worked for the weapon and wielder. It was here that he would take the steps to bond closer with his zanpakuto and encourage others to do the same. Bankai, would be the the ultimate goal of this procedure but it would be a long pursuit. A necessary pursuit according the new head captains standards.

"Ohhh my, quite the smooth talker huh? I guess I'll waste my time if I taunt you more, it seems someone else has already ticked you off. Hopefully he put you in your place" She said, letting out a small giggle afterwards. She then turned her attention to Souta as Fumio . She smirked "You're probably wondering why a child deserves such a fate? Well it's simple, because he was born. His presence, his existence is nothing but a parasite of this universe. He shouldn't exist, and I'm gonna make sure that happens. I guess both of you have something in common" She looked into Soutas eyes as she spoke "Both of you have nowhere where you belong" She said, with a delightful but twisted smile. "But I know his mother is up ahead, we were gonna go pay her a visit actually. She's going to be a fun test subje-" Ragnarok cut her off, speaking up Lahel sighed, turning away from the two and looking back at Ragnarok "You're right, I wanted to try setting one of them off but it looks like it isn't working"

"Yes, trying to taunt me will do you no good pest since I don't particularly care for what comes out of your mouth. And for the record, I'm actually rather relaxed. Is that so? Well I hope Aya kills you, you're nothing but a waste of space." The girl then turned her attention to Souta, making Fumio raise an eyebrow. Souta looked at the girl, a scowl growing on his face as the girl spoke... but then something inside him seemed to of snapped when she told him that both of them have nowhere where they belong. The girl then continued to talk, Fumio narrowing her eyes at her as she did, not appreciating her presence still lingering around him and Souta. Souta however. "Who are you to make that decision." He spoke calmly, however a tinge of anger underlaid his words. His hair was covering his eyes as his head was tilted forward before he moved his head up, looking at the girl hatefully. "Who the fuck are you to tell us that we don't belong!" Souta yelled. "I've had enough of listening to your shit! Don't you lay a fucking finger on that boy or else I will fucking kill you! He's not going to be in Hell forever, instead you should be the one taking his place! Hozumi may be a demon but he has a good heart! He belongs here with his mother and we belong within our Clan's walls." Souta jumped back, unsheathing his sword which shocked Fumio. The latter looked back at Souta before looking at the girl. Just before anyone could say or do anything, Fumio shunpo'ed and appeared beside Souta, grabbing the guy roughly by his arm. "Heh, I hope to never see you two again." With a short chuckle, Fumio shunpo'ed with Souta, out of sight and out of mind.

The shinigami didn't panic. She shifted her lower body and twisted the Zanpakuto so that the blade twirled and smacked the man's sword just past her side. Had she not moved, she would have suffered that graze. In the same movement though, she whipped her sword out in a thrust towards the man's wrist.
One thing the man may have noticed was that her style was reactionary. No movement was wasted.

That is interesting, her fighting style is different from most I've see. Seems based on reaction, and there has been allot of parrying. Seems focused on getting attacked though, rather than attacking them outright. Alright, let's try this then, Hikari thought before jumping back quickly avoiding the thrust. He held his Zanpakuto out with both hands and used Ryōdan, using Spirit Energy to back up his strength. He put in enough force that a parry from someone of her level simply wouldn't rival it causing it to just fail, or could it have simply been moved away like his other attacks. It would force her to do something different, or risk an injury that would take up her right shoulder and arm.

Once Fumio walked away Kenji shrugged, "What a snob.....Poor guy though, seems so insecure," Kenji said as he rubbed the back of his neck. He let out a breath, "Either their relationship is going to shit, I'm good looking, or he's still holding a grudge from a comment I made like....Four months ago. Geez that guy, he needs a good shag." Kenji decided to dismiss that whole thing, Fumio now irrelevant to him, he would have forgotten all about him if it wasn't for him apologizing to Aya. He was going to bring up what happened before they were interrupted, figuring he'd say something like, "So speaking of measurements!" but decided not to as Aya was probably now in that mindset where she was thinking of her son....Which was fine by all means, but he couldn't help but have the urge of wanting to kick Fumio in his balls which he assumed his hairs were the color of rainbows with glitter sprinkled all over them.
Aya listened to Fumio apologize and nodded at him with a smile. 'Thank you Femme, bye Cherry, don't be a stranger now." Aya said smiling as she waved as they walked away. She was a little giddy that someone as pent up as Femme actually said sorry to her, so giddy she randomly bear hugged Kenji while grinning at him. "I will without a doubt get Hozumi back, Femme still owes him some Ice cream after all..... Speaking of which I really want Ice cream now." Aya said still bear hugging Kenji
After Aya said her goodbye's she randomly bear hugged him while grinning. "I will without a doubt get Hozumi back, Femme still owes him some Ice cream after all..... Speaking of which I really want Ice cream now." He heard her speak. He then smiled down at her, "Yeah, you will get Hozumi back!" he told her. He then begin squirming, "I'll buy the ice cream if it weren't for me being trapped in a young Aya's grip of death and destruction!" he said before sticking his tongue out the side of his mouth and closing his eyes with his body going fake limp, playing along with her of course.
Kurisa said
"Hm?" Kagiko watched and listened as Nene reacted, he found this odd...he then noticed her 'forfeit' the 'game' and as such her hair turned green...this was truly odd, her Zanpakuto was quite different..."Now where are you going? how about rather than running off and thinking to much about this, we go and test these out on a group of hollow as opposed to just one...perfection is still far from acheived...many experiments need to be done in order to it...although you can never truly perfect something...no matter how you look at it, the word in itself gives false hope that you can create something without flaw..." Kagiko then noticed himself chatting a lot and going a bit off topic "Excuse me...I sometimes do that and wonder off into a world of my own. So...what do you say to my proposal?" Kagiko gave a warm smile, something you'd almost never see around the Squad 12 barracks or more so the SRDI...the only smiles you got around here was when someone invented some diabolical device to blow hollows brains up or something...
Nene stopped and looked back at him raising and eyebrow. He did present something rather interesting, more test should be done after all he could have had a lucky shot. Truly it was convincing enough for her to consider it, so when he said sorry and then asked her about her thoughts on the matter, she waited a few seconds before nodding. "Might as well, I poured months into this topic, I should at least see if this test of yours is the real deal. However the smile he gave was quite welcoming, and from someone from squad twelve that could be seen as a sign of danger, but alas she shrugged an walked back over to him.
"Grip of death and destruction?" Aya said confused, only to see that Kenji was faking death, however with Aya it wouldn't be unlike her to think she actually killed him, as she did squeeze a swarm to death once. Aya looked at him with a sad look in here eyes and poked his cheek, then sniffed a bit as she then shook him rapidly. "Noooooo Kenji you can't be dead, wake up! Head away from the source of death! Its not the place you want!" Aya then proceeded to shake him faster, as she thought this would surely bring him back from the dead.
"Noooooo Kenji you can't be dead, wake up! Head away from the source of death! Its not the place you want!" Kenji heard which made him want to laugh but he didn't. She then began shaking him which he let her for a bit before he lifted himself up and whispered in her ear, "Only true love's kiss can bring me back." Kenji then fell back, acting dead once more.
When Kenji rose up a bit, she grinned before he said a cheesy line then played dead once more, she then stared at him as she blushed a bit. "Asshole, making me think you were dead, no kisses for you.... i might change my mind however if you get me some ice cream though." Aya said poking his cheek, before she sighed and gave him a quick kiss. "there now come back to life. Or i will kill you"

Fumio Hari Kouineji & Souta Fushimaru Hari
Fumio reappeared within the front garden of the Squad Eight barracks. The second Fumio stopped, Souta ripped his arm from Fumio's hand, walking forward before stopping to say something. "I don't see why you did that Kazuhiko." Fumio crossed her arms before replying. "It was getting out of hand Souta." "Are you kidding me?" Souta turned around to look at Fumio, scowling. "So I'm supposed to not do anything! That girl and thing had something to do with Hozumi! After all the shit Aya went through, how could you just stand there and not do anything about it?!" Fumio eyed the anger in Souta's face, however his own was straight and calm as usual. "Souta, what did I say. You need to forget about her and her son. Ties with others only makes you weaker." This made Souta snap his head up. "What's that supposed to mean?! So with that theory, I'm making you weaker? Chie's making you weaker?! Is that really how you think Prince?!" "Yes and no. With you and Huerona, we're from the same Clan and have always been close until that event... You two give me strength... If it weren't for you two, I would of given up a long time ago.... However, with Chie, it's different..." "Different? How?! So you're aloud to care about her but I'm not aloud to give a shit about anyone?!" Fumio screwed his eyebrows together, thinking of what to say before speaking. "Souta... You have to her let go, how do you expect to beat our leader if you're too focused on that woman and her child... She's moved on, time for you to move on and forget about her.... Okay, I admit, Ties don't make you weaker, but they make you soft... And it's the softness that makes you weak... We've grown soft here Souta, can't you tell? We don't belong here, so let them go" "I've had enough of letting go!!... I-I... just want to be able to live with people I care about.... I've had enough of having to through that away... It isn't making me stronger! All it's doing it making me feel more... vulnerable...." Fumio watched Souta sink to his knees, sitting on the floor while looking down. He looked defeated, but Fumio wasn't going to let him give up. Bending down, Fumio placed a hand on Souta's shoulder and smiled. "Souta, you'll always have me, you seem to keep forgetting that. We've been best friends, practically brothers ever since we first met. It's been over 100 years and we're still close... You're not vulnerable Souta, you just get attached to the wrong people. Now come on, lets go inside and have some tea, you need to rest up after all of that training... Hell I do too" Fumio stood up and waited as Souta looked up at him before looking down, sighing before getting up himself. "I'm not like you Kazuhiko....but, I guess, in a sense you're right..."

The woman stood still and let the attack come at her. Her mind was running a mile a minute as she analyzed the lieutenant's movements. Her eyes seemed as though they were glazing over.
As soon as she was sure that the man was committed to the attack, for the blade was nearly upon her, she ducked low and at an angle towards the man's body. She used his own direct attack as a blocking measure since the two handed attack meant that both of his arms were extended. Pass the arms, you pass the blade.
With their current positions, she struck out with the pointed hilt of her zanpakuto, aimed for his open kidney. Her free arm was placed directly between his elbow and her head, not touching him but there to take off the brunt of an elbow strike should it come. This was the meat of her style: a blend of zanjutsu and hakuda.

"Asshole, making me think you were dead, no kisses for you.... I might change my mind however if you get me some ice cream though." He heard her speak then poke his cheek. Kenji was going to get her ice cream either way it went, but he wasn't going to be moving without a kiss. It was something to make up for earlier before the whole interruption. He figured she caught on by the sigh, then the sudden feel of her lips on his followed by a threat, "There now come back to life. Or i will kill you."
He opened his eyes and straightened himself as he put his arms around her waist chuckling, "Sorry for making you worry Dove, but it was funny~" he said as he kissed the tip of her nose before dropping his arms from her waist. He grabbed her hand and took her to an ice cream shop.

Looks like she's not dumb either, that was actually a pretty smart move, Hikari thought as he watched her duck and come up from his arms while attacking for his kidney and blocking his elbow. As speed and agility was pretty much his specialty Hikari did the next move with little effort. His attack landed before Hakura's and Hikari used the force from the blade to propel himself forward, he quickly brought his knees back and had jumped over Hakura's head. He could have easily got an attack on her spine by kicking his legs back but instead he just landed and turned around. Hikari sheathed his blade, "You're a good fighter, I like the mix between Hakuda and Zanjutsu, and the quick thinking. Welcome to Squad Ten Hakura."

When her managed to flip over her, she'd been anticipating an attack to her spine. Aa such, she rolled away rather than try blocking and brought her sword up and around in a defensive posture. She was nowhere as fast as him, but, she knew that arms and legs could only extend so far forward before they had to be used for landing.
She smiled widely at his words and bowed, "Thank you! I will work hard to further develop my style and speed." she forgot herself and have a fist pump, "Suck on that Councilmen! Haha! Oh uh..." she blushed and bowed again, "S-Sorry...i will do my best to be of use for the Squad."

Hikari smiled seeing how excited she got once he told her welcome, she then bowed with an apology which caused him to laugh, "No, you're fine! Show those councilmen who's boss whoever they may be!" Hikari said as he gave his own fist pump in support of her. He then dropped his arm as he put his hands together, sliding them in their opposite sleeves. "But if you want to be of use, what do you say a mission? Nothing too hard, but it won't be something to take lightly either. I'll be there with you, just in case you get into some trouble. It'll be for a good cause, plus you'll get expirence."

Haruka smiled happily then nodded. Her smile dimmed a little bit, "Clan Councilmen. They hardly like me becoming a Shinigami. But, I am the first in my family...so I hope I cam save some other girls some heartache." she perked up at the offer of a mission, "My first mission, already? What do we need to do, Shinrai-sama?" asked in obvious excitement.
"Well congrats for being the first," Hikari said before giving a a nervous chuckle and a rub to the back of his neck, "And you really don't need to address me officially like that. Squad Ten is a family, so you can just call me Hikari alright? I won't get upset....But if you'd rather call me by that name then that's fine too!" Hikari then began walking, signalling Haruka to follow along.
"There has been sightings of hollows in district 65, which may be due to hollow attacks that had happened in district 64 a few months ago. Of course I could take care of this easily, but I feel there's more to it than just that," Hikari said as he lead her out of the Seireitei and too district 65.
