A grin settled onto Rio's face. She shunpo'ed, landing on the top of the gate to the barracks. [u]"-out"[/b] She finished her sentence with a smirk before jumping down and running to the exit, much faster than she was before.Rio continued to run, not even looking back to see if Kaizo was following, instead she just kept grinning, ready to show him how much she had improved. Rio then jumped, shunpo'ing from tree branch to tree branch as she made her way deeper and deeper into a random forest, skidding to a stop when she entered a plain stretch of grass. Standing still, she looked around and continued to smirk. She waited for Kaizo to find her, no doubt he probably already had.

Kaizo shut the door behind him as Rio set off, he then followed behind her, his Shunpo was quick yet he didn't use all of his speed as he wanted to save energy. After following Rio for a small while they arrived in a rather plain looking stretch of grass "Hmm...yeah it looks alright." Kaizo then unsheathed his Zanpakuto and held it out infront of him with both hands as he closed his eyes and began to focus, he breathed through his nose as he listened to the grass flow lightly with the wind, he was distinguishing the sounds from eachother...why? well that may be obvious but either way it was handy little skill...one almost anyone was capable of. Given time to prepare can make a Battle a great deal different. Kaizo then opened his eyes and looked at Rio then spoke "Show me what you can do 7th Seat Rio..."
