Getting To Know Someone [Hokori vs Reo NDE PG-13]

OOC: A few things, Please post your stats. It's really really helpful for the spar and to not have to dig up your profile every single time i want to see them. Also Don't control Hokori when it comes to battle. You'll find that will end badly. And writing in past tense rather then present tense is really helpful. Other than that have fun. =P


Hokori turned a page of his personal journal, he was bored and annoyed. He had been told by his cousin to be more.... open to other commoners and take an interest in the shaping of the younger shinigami. Seriously? This was something he hated about Sozen, so cavalier. It was as if he forgot he was a noble and when he did Hokori ended up paying for it. "He's late..." He marked this in his journal, Then flipped a few pages and began reading his notes about Kyomei. If he had a favorite commoner so far, it was Kyomei. He may have been an adopted Kuchiki but it was only because he was able to channel great power. Hokori turned another page, regarding other encounters and losing himself in his thoughts. He could sense roughly a quarter mile around himself. So it wasn't hard to pick up on a meager reiastu signature heading his way. It was so small his own almost blocked it out.

The shinigami walked in late and didn't even bow to apologize, the vice-captain slipped his journal back into his pocket. He was a little further miffed that Reoros didn't say he was sorry and bow as he should have. "Your name is Hokori, right? Hokori Kuchiki, great to meet you. They say the only way to truly know someone is to fight him." Hokori didn't even twitch towards or in that case even into his reiastu pool. He watched the twitchy motions that the unseated shinigami was making and assumed that it was around the speed of an average human. Hokori sighed. "You would be correct, should you even posses the ability to even make me draw my blade." However Hokori highly doubted that. The difference in their spiritual pressure was so massive that he could just defend barehanded and Reoros would take the damage instead.

"Come at me bro!" The unseated exclaimed overconfidently. "Let me see what the 12th Division second in command can do." Hokori stood as the unseated shinigami unsheathed his claymore and his zanpakutou. Hokori however just started walking towards the shinigami. It was a methodical pace, it was more than that. It was a death march. Nothing would stop him, and as he walked he wouldn't raise a hand or arm. He wouldn't incline as if he was going to attack him, but it was certain that if Reoros didn't do something Hokori was going to attack him and leave him battered and cut up.

OOC: Alright, I've done whats called counter posting. I've changed what's happened because i was able to do an action while you were trying to complete your action. This is why writing in past tense is helpful because unless you can argue the point of fact that something would happen, it is not always set in stone. Furthermore. I've given you plenty to react to with the gravitational pressure. I'm not doing it to pick on you, but i am doing it to help you further develop the thought process of your character. If you have any questions about gravitational pressure consult the Amendment section. Amendment 18.

He was an unseated officer after all. Hokori didn't even have to exert himself to breath harder, he amped up his speed to around fifty percent. Already it was much higher then Reoros, almost four times faster than the seated officer could move. He didn't just sit there, that would be stupid. He moved to the left, moving almost in a glide. The weapons were no where near where he was when they landed however as Reoros tried to close in and throw his Claymore, that was a mistake. A HUGE mistake, and one that Hokori rectified immediately. He ran at the blade, dived past it and grabbed the claymore's handle before it even hit the floor. With Reoro's strength, throwing a full body sword would take effort and it still wouldn't travel as fast as Hokori. Hokori then raised his arm and turned the Claymore in his hand. "Don't ever think for a moment that just because you disregard a weapon that it will work. You were foolish to think that these rusted weapons would hurt me."

He tossed the blade at Reoro's feet where it skittered to a halt. He kept an even breath and looked right into Reoro's eyes and fluxed his spiritual pressure. Even as Reoro's started to try to throw more weapons from the racks, he would suddenly fall to his hands and knees threatening to suffocate. He couldn't fight it and it was unavoidable, he was just getting his first taste of what was called gravitational pressure. Because their class difference was so immense, being around Hokori while his powers were un-restrained would literally be like being shoved inside a room that had eighty percent of the oxygen sucked out, and the gravity increased almost twice over. He could fight it by expanding 250 reiastu a post but at his current level he couldn't hold up that kind of resistance for more than a second. Hokori walked toward Reoro.Even as the sword was in front of his hands, Reoro would find no way to gather the strength or resistance to grab it and defend himself.

Hokori stepped over the blade and reached down and grabbed Reoro's by the front of his shirt. "You need to learn, i am being open with you. I am training you, but do not think that your attacks will ever harm me. It is like imagining i'll ever come to beat the captain commander. It is impossible. Now when i release you, you will try again, come at me and actually put some effort into it. Or, this will be a very short training agreement." He snuffed out his gravitational pressure and set Reoro on his feet. Whether after just being put on his hands and knees, would he be able to even stand remained to be seen. Hokori walked away, and allowed them to have around five feet worth or space. He turned and again waited for Reoro to attack him, to show him his worth.

OOC: so again, counter posting... Also you used up reiastu so you need to post that at the bottom of your posts so you can track your total reiastu count. And why not post what you feel as MY post takes place.


Again and again, the unseated shinigami kept making mistakes... He wasn't looking at what the big picture was. He just thought that he would take some damage to procure a hit on the Kuchiki. He was so wrong, they gap between them was insurmountable. Reo swung the clay more and Hokori literally waited for that fraction of the time between the point he let go of the blade and the time it should have impacted the Vice-Captain. Hokori's arms snapped up at speeds so fast Reoros would not be able to follow. He had senses less then a natural normal human, coupled with the low natural speed it would look as if one moment Hokori's arms were at his sides. And the next they would be grabbing the blade in mid air clasping the blade between both hands and using that speed to twist himself and the blade.

The blade flew up Hokori was able to effortlessly with his left hand drive his fingers forward to match Reoros' hand as he shouted out Hado 4. Byakurai. The lightning was weak, and when it hit Hokori's fingertips it dispelled in a shredding fashion! Although he wouldn't be able to tell, the spell had never even touched Hokori's hand. Hokori was using the Kuchiki style's Razor lotus. Byakurai was a weak spell and coupled with the fact Hokori's reiastu strength was ten times the amount Reoros' reiastu strength was made it easy to tank the kidou using just his pure natural occuring reiastu spinning at a high velocity. To Reoros though, it would seem as if Hokori had just used the wind rotating at a super high speed to defend himself. But that was not the worst of the unseated shinigami, he had just irratated Hokori for the final time.

When Hokori had flipped the sword into the air he had know what it was doing and where it was, as he defending with his left hand his right hand shot up and grabbed the handle of the blade. It happened at the same time as when he was defending the byakurai. He then shot forward at full speed and brought the blade up, although Reoros could use shunpo. He couldn't and didn't have the processes to keep up with this speed. Hokori's sword attack would connect because of the fact Hokori did move almost eight times faster then the unseated officer. However this was a training session, so when he brought up the sword he impacted Reoros under his left arm against the ribs with the flat portion of the blade.

This hit was certain and would bruise and wind Reoros, although it wouldn't break the skin due to Hokori's mastery in blades. He was keeping him from being hurt, because he was training him. When he hit the ground, Hokori flourished the blade turning it upside down and slamming it into the wood floor. Hokori was quickly losing his patience. "I told you, put effort into it. I'm tired of holding back so much of my power it's causing me physical pain. Use Kidou deceptively, attack with blunt attacks instead of cutting attacks to inflict damage to those with greater spiritual pressure and attack within attacks. Now, you have one more try. Otherwise this training session will be over! Put feeling into it. I am not some young child you can play around with. My time is precious, and i don't have the time to waste for you to be screwing around!" None of his other sequenced attacks would have happened like he had though, Hokori had his claymore, he had only been able to fire one byakurai, and Reoros' zanpakutou was still in its sheath.

OOC: Sorry you didn't give me much to work with and i want to post defensively. Post out your attacks with a bit more detail.


He moved to the left dodging the lightning easy enough. Hokori had even had the speed and time to dodge and grab the claymore, He straightened up. Reoros dodged to his left, which was to say Hokori's right side. Hokori was dominatively a right handed person. And Reoros swung Hokori noted that he was using the flat portion of the blade to impact the vice captain. Hokori noted that he was listening and reacted accordingly bringning the claymore up and blocking. He stepped in and caused their blades to be pressed together. He had effectively stopped all forms of combat between their blades. he then pushed off, sliding back while saying, "Very good. Again I'll use your blade, now attack me and if you manage to make me shunpo you will have done well."

Hokori watched the display, thinking to himself that this Shinigami was a bit grating on the nerves. Reoros dived back to the weapons rack and grabbed a great sword. Sheesh, this kid never stopped. But then he ran along with it, running at his full speed and then when he was roughly ten feet away he used a shunpo to appear to Hokori's left. He struck out at Hokori, who in that moment jumped and shoved the blade of his opponent's claymore into the ground and pushed off with it. Reoros lightning infused blade, would collided not with Hokori but with his own Broad sword. Hokori then turned to see Reoros above him. Another shunpo it seemed, normally he'd have been screwed even with superior speed, he couldn't defend against a reiastu infused blade that would bypass cutback.

Now, that would be what a normal shinigami would say. However Hokori was no mere normal shinigami, and further more even turned upside down he was lethal. Time to put an end to this... His left foot lashed out coated in that same spinning reiastu, striking into the blade and caused it to shatter, using that momentum. He used his full speed and struck the wide open shinigami in the chest, the effect would be immediate and instantanious. It'd be like putting a cone on the end of a lathe, shaving layers right into his very flesh. On top of that, they were in the Soul Society, shunpo in mid air was impossible. So as he gouged in enough to cripple Reoros, he pulled his foot free and landed on his shoulder rolling to his feet.

Reoros would hit the ground, a huge whole in his chest. Hokori straightened his glasses and pushed a hand into his breast pocket, pressing a button. This was a special button that signaled squad 4 to come to the area, he placed the sensor by Reoros' body and walked away, irritated for multiple reasons. The most being that he was so underneath Hokori's skill set that Hokori had become impressively bored. He sighed and straightened his glasses, turning back to glance once at that commoner and then left the training ground.
