Type: Training Thread -NDE in case of battle Requesting: CTP Location: In the abandoned house on the first floor. The circumstance being Takashi is looking for hollow within this area. His desire to train causes him to seek more people to fight. Zegram would most likely be here for whatever reason they will state. Note: Sparring may ensue so we'll post stats or relative information at the beginning just in case. Most likely it will not, but it'll be interesting to see how training goes.

In the midst of Japan, there was a central building that was decorated in old Japanese tradition. This building, seemed rather decayed from the outside. Shattered windows, holes in the walls, various vine growth, etc. The overcast sky and bouts of light and heavy rain added to the rather 'creepy' atmosphere of this area. The building stood rather tall however, proud of its stature. However, due to the dark atmosphere, the worn down colors were rather apparent. This house almost appeared as though it were a classical Japanese 'haunted' house. The snow haired shinigami looked towards the large castle like area.
As he stood, his expression was a mix of bored and nearly emotionless. He was humbled in front of the large building which towered over him. The shinigami wore his normal black robe attire along with the white waist band which held his Zanpakuto. Hidden with the clothes were strange circular rings that seemed thick and made up of some metal. They had the insignia for Reisengen on them, or Soul Restriction. What was the young shinigami doing here you ask? It seemed the man from the Kuchiki Clan had heard rumors of great hollow activity here.
Takashi was a man whom couldn't resist challenges. He would strive to become stronger in his quest to protect others. He hadn't had much encounter with hollow nor knew much about them. When they were mindless however, he wanted nothing more but to cut them in half. Truth be told, he had a lot to learn about the world. However, his combat abilities were not lacking in the slightest. He was able to fight on par with people who were a great deal stronger than him. In his pursuits to become stronger, he would undoubtedly attempt to gain strength through less than conventional ways. If only he could go to an area he'd be constantly in danger, he'd be quite happy.
There was no more dilly dallying however. The rain began to slowly pick up and Takashi, though immune to it in this world, didn't like standing out in it; old human tendencies. As he walked up to the steps he noticed the strange wooden architecture. It was strange how this area was constructed, moreover, there was something about it which felt ...dark. This however, wouldn't stop the white haired man. he approached the door and grasped the handle. He didn't pause as he gripped and turned it, opening the door.
The cliche squeaking noise emitted as the door opened. Takashi entered in on a large space. It seemed there was a large rug that was spanning the entire floor. On either side of the circular stairs leading up to only one of the several floors held statues. These statues seemed to be like those of Griffins, the strange mythical animals. As he entered, he closed the door behind him. Takashi noticed that there were many candles lighting the area. However, from the outside it didn't seem that way. The man kept the same emotionless face up as he looked out at the area.
Item Name: Reiseigen 霊制限 (Soul Restraints) Item Type: Restraints Item Description: These restrains are worn upon the users calves and their forearms. They seem rectangular in shape and are rather slim and black. They fit much like if a person had a small box or rectangle around his or her wrists and ankles. On each, there is a white imprint carved into them that reads: 霊 制 限 ;Or "Soul Restraints". The ability of this item is very unique indeed. These restraints will divide a person's offensive Stats by a half (including Spiritual Pressure too). With this, they will be much weaker and people will generally feel the same of them. However, while wearing them in any PVP situation (at the start of the battle*) they will have X amount of posts the restraints can be released by simply saying the phrase "Kai(release)". The restraints will fall off as Reaitsu is added to them in a specific flow or way (or if releasing Shikai/Bankai. The effect of these limiters are it halves the users: RS, SpPr, Speed, and Strength. While halved however, reiatsu usage for Takashi is halved . In addition, If the limiter is used for 6 posts, when it is released Takashi's stamina and reiatsu is refilled"
Zegram had taken residence in the old building while he was I the world of the living. The condition of the house gave it that spooky atmosphere which he used to toy with the human children and teenagers that dared each other to entered the haunted house. This time someone different approached the house that night. It wasn't human he could tell that much. He looked out of one of the second story windows to see a man with a sword standing outside. There was no mistaking it. It was a shinigami. At first it caught the arrancar off guard. Why would a shinigami be here? He pondered being careful to not be seen. It finally dawned on him that they must have picked him up during his last meal. Maybe I tend to play with my food a little too much. He shrugged and smiled thinking of the possibilities of what could come of this encounter.
The well dressed arroncar replaced his fedora on his head moving a few strands of green hair that got in front of his eyes. He made sure that his black, two piece suit was nice and free of dust and dirt for the meeting. He shouldn't keep his guest waiting for too long. He did wish that it would have been a lovely lady. That would have made his night indeed. He chuckled to himself, but continued to leave the room. He was trying to be as quiet as his boots would allow making it to the hall before the man entered the house. The rain helped hide his footsteps as he moved into the shadows of the beyond the stair case.
"My, my, do everyone in the soul society lack manners? I would assume that a shinigami would act with a bit more politely." He smiled a snake like smile as he looked down at the shinigami. Zegram kept his sword on him though he didn't go for it yet. He wanted to see what this man could do when his buttons were pushed. "You may as well make yourself comfortable, though I am not used to entertaining men."

Takashi's crystal like eyes gazed upon the creature. The blue diamonds that were rumored to have made the soul king jealous, gazed upon the man. He kept his focus as the man descended down the circular steps. Takashi didn't say anything to him as he made his initial statement. He simply blinked, his face still the same bored yet almost emotionless state. He wasn't sure what this person was, but they looked human enough he supposed. There was something strange about them however, something he couldn't exactly pick up on. In any case, he would speak to the man with some manners as well.
He bowed respectfully to whomever the man was. It wasn't like Takashi to be arrogant nor aristocratic; he was brought up in an orphanage after all. He began speaking as he was in the bowing position, "My name is Kuchiki, Takashi. I am here to investigate the presence of hollow." The man paused a moment before he rose up, looking towards the man."I imagine with the ability to see me, you are supernatural in some sense. It was not my intention to impede on your home either. However, I must exile all hollow from the premise, as is my duty." Takashi spoke to him. He didn't really pay attention to the last comment as much. It was rather interesting, Takashi was as unenthusiastic as ever.
"I would like to graciously decline the offer for the current time. As you may imagine, I would certainly appreciate my obligations be complete before I enjoy any leisure." Takashi spoke as he gave one last bow,"I will begin my search of the premise now. Thank you very much". With that, Takashi began ascending the opposite cascade of stairs that the other man was on. He stopped however at the third step before turning back to the man. "I had almost forgotten to ask, but what was your name once more?", he questioned. After he answered, Takashi would continue to go about his business. He wasn't usually this pushy, but he didn't like the circumstances as they presently were.
Zegram motioned for the man to go about his business with a polite smile on his face. When Zegram was asked his name, Zegram's smile widened wondering if his name was known or not. He doubted it but had no issues on presenting his identity.
"My name is Zegram, Zegram Hebi at your serves. If there is anything that I can assist you with, please don't hesitate to ask." He moved down into the living room of the house reclining on an old dusty sofa. he sighed watching the shinigami. He may like to toy with people for his amusement, but he also knew to be cautious and don't be stupid. He had seen many people die from over confidence. His yellow eyes fallowed the calm man walk up the stairs and start to go through the first hall way. He wondered how long he will look before he figures out that there are no hallows. There was just one handsome arrancar.
The shinigami, Takashi, seemed to be rather unemotional and bland. It might be a bit difficult to get him to visibly react. Takashi would hold the advantage for the moment. "I should warn you though Takashi, the structural integrity of the place is not the best. You should watch your step." He chuckled and laced his fingers behind his head.

Takashi stopped at the base of the stairs. He placed his hand on the top of his sheath, lifting his Zanpakuto out of his left waist band. With that, he tossed it over to his right hand; catching it at the upper middle of it. It was good to be prepared, after all, there could be hollow up there and it would be in bad taste to be ill prepared. He turned behind him to face the man who began to introduce himself. Looking at Zegram from the sofa, it appeared as though he had become relaxed; perhaps this was his home. Takashi didn't much question it but decided it would be best to show respect to the man, as he did to Takashi.
"It is a pleasure to meet you Hebi Zegram" Takashi said with the same bored and unenthusiastic face. He spoke his name the way he was usually accustom to. The Kuchiki took great pride in mannerisms so he would often times simply speak their name in the 'proper' way he knew how. After that, Takashi ascended up the stairs and began to climb up the stairs. Upon reaching the opening to the first room, he would look down from the railing at Zegram.
"I thank you for your concern". He said to the man as he inspected the areas. He didn't see anything around yet he felt some sort of strange energy which was emitting. There was definitely some strange Reaitsu here. After he finally searched the area, Takashi descended the stairs. He descended the stairs which he came. Standing nearly 15 feet away from Zegram he held his Zanpakuto out to his right, his elbow slightly bent. His left foot was forward, it was a neutral stance not an intimidating one.
He gave Zegram a bow before speaking once more."I am sorry. I have been mistaken. In truth, I felt some reaitsu that seemed of hollow nature. However, I clearly do not see any hollow here. I assume you understand of the term I am speaking Zegram. I suppose it should be proper to question if you have any insight into this information? I seem to be at ends, feeling hollow reaitsu yet not seeing a hollow here" He said with the blank stare.
Zegram's smile never left his face. He was surprised that the shinigami hasn't put two and two together yet. These shinigami must be getting dumber and dumber every century or merely arrogant. He thought standing and returning the bow that the overly polite shinigami gave him. He preferred to be more casual. There was no fun to be had if one was uptight all the time. He took a few steps around a table between them keeping it squarely between the two of them.
"Please just Zegram will do." He smiled putting one hand on the hilt of his sword. He did not grab the hilt but merely rested his right wrist apon it. "But as a matter of fact, I have encountered a hallow." He quickly scanned the man in front of him making a quick plan in a blink of an eye. It was nothing elaborate, but it would do. "It was about a week ago, at this very house." He of course was referring to his own arrival to the location. "It was rather crafty. It used the lure of excitement that human teens and kids find in houses like these. When they came in deep into the house, he would devour them. I sadly witnessed it before I could act." He kept his body relaxed, yet ready to act at a moments notice. "But I do not fear this hallow, for you see there is no hallow..." He kicked the small rotting, wooden table at the shinigami dashing behind it drawing his sword and thrusting it at the shinigami's torso aiming to wound, but not kill. "...only an Arrancar!"

The snow haired shinigami looked towards Zegram whom seemed to be quite smug about something. Takashi passed it off as the man's personality and didn't think too much of it. However, it wasn't unlike him to be ill prepared. It seemed obvious that the man was most likely the source of this Reaitsu. However, it would be unwise for him to attack him without any information. It was highly unlikely that Takashi would do so, so he simply asked him straight forward questions. His eyes narrowed as he looked towards Zegram whom seemed to place his hand on the hilt of his sword.
Perhaps the two had an unconscious sense of what was going on. Or rather, it was though they both knew one another in terms of intention. Takashi's eyes narrowed upon Zegram speaking of encountering a hollow. "I see". He said in response to the man speaking. It seemed he had some good insight, that or he was playing some sort of joke. It was apparent with the man's words that he was going to say something...interesting.
Takashi simply listened as the story continued. He heard of this strange hollow that devoured children...waiting in areas. It must be very intelligent to do so. Takashi had not encountered any hollows there were not mindless. However, he had heard about them before. It seemed all hollows were of the same. They were baseless in their actions and only hungry for the innocence of souls of which they consumed.
The story took a turn as the man spoke the last words. Takashi was ready to spring on his feet. Suddenly, he saw the man throw a kick to the table. With his force it probably broke a little. Takashi could also see the man's feet that were moving quickly; he was fast. Upon slight recoil of the foot and execution of the kick, Takashi bounced off of right foot turning to the side in a clockwise manner. He just barely avoided the table which would soon smash into the stairs behind him. Luckily, the railing of the stairs behind him would protect him from its initial smashing wood.
As he turned, he drew his sword gracefully, aimed towards the man's lower right bicep, (assuming the man was still facing forward, Takashi would be on his right side). Takashi wasted no time as well, he drew as he was bouncing up. If the man would be stabbing forward, then the hit would be intended for his upper rib, but if his hand was down in place it would aim bisect his arm. Lucky for Takashi that his right arm was already bent. Upon landing, he would have his left foot forward and his right foot staggered as he was twisting clockwise for the slash. In addition, his right arm would still be bent holding the sheath he drew from.
When he missed with his thrust, he quickly looked to see where his opponent had dodged to. He smiled using his sonido to quickly step behind the shinigami using a back hand, diagonal slash against him. If he didn't dodge, he would get a long cut from his right shoulder down to his left hip. If that succeeded, he would fallow up with another diagonal slash going the opposite direction as well as a bala to the middle of his back fired from Zegram's left hand. Regardless if any of that worked, he would put some distance between them smiling his snake like smile.
"Is this it? I was expecting a little more." He taunted repositioning his fedora. He wanted to see more of what the shinigami was capable of. He wanted to know if he was worth killing.

The snow haired shinigami looked towards the Arrancar. At this time, he didn't exactly know what this man was but it was interesting none the less. He would see what he was capable of and it would be interesting to know more about him. As he saw the man disappear, and reappear behind him, his hand raised ready to slash at the shinigami. Takashi was still about to draw his sword. Instead of drawing it horizontally as intended, he instead had it at a 45 degree angle, he pulled the sheath from the sword and turned over his right shoulder. It was almost like pulling the cord of a lawnmower. As he did this, he rose his sheath up behind his right shoulder. The sheath would essentially block him as he reached over to block the hit. However, it was only in the nick of time; the man was quickly.
A counter attack would come very quickly as Takashi, using that momentum, twisted in a clockwise manner. As he did so, he bent his right right, pushing the man's sword off to his left side. With his left hand, now holding a naked sword, slashed horizontally towards the man's right exposed midsection in hopes of cutting him. At the same time, Takashi would also utter the word 'kai' which would push off his restraints, pushing him much quicker than before. He was also much stronger now as well.
It was now time to see what the arrancar would do. The man seemed rather strange. Takashi couldn't help but question him as they fought. "What exactly are you!?". He questioned as he spuon on his right foot, the sword still aimed towards his mid section; the intent to cut deep into the man. This was definitely an interesting fight and he was greatly enjoying how things were progressing here. Little did he know he would soon find out about things that he had no idea about. It may have changed Takashi...perhaps it would...only time would tell.
Zegram was caught off guard forced to use sonido again to back out of range of the shinigami's blade. He could tell just with common sense that he was stronger and faster with his restraints off. He would need to go all out if he wanted to win this fight, but he should answer the young shinigami's question first.
"Like I said before, I am an Arrancar. Think of us as a combination between a hallow and shinigami like yourself." He relaxed slightly sure that the shinigami's intrigue will allow him to continue in relative safety. None the less, he kept on his toes ready to react the second he needed to. "From hallows, we evolve into Gillians, the weakest, but most numorous of the Menos Grande." He held up his left hand holding up two fingers. "The second stage after that, if a specific personality somehow remains while in Gillian form is the Adhuchas. Fewer in number but more powerful. Think of them as more beast like almost like the hallows were originally. We continue to feast on each other in order to keep this form, or else we return to Gillian form where we stay permanently. After a while when an Adhucha breaks his mask..." He gestured to himself. "They become an Arrancar."
He smiled making sure he had plenty of distance between them. He hadn't shown his release form to anyone that he could remember. He mentally shrugged thinking that it couldn't be helped. He will need to if he wanted to win the fight.
"Now I will show you the difference between us and normal hallows." He gripped his sword tightly his smile widening. "Bite into your enemies, Doku Kiba!"
The lower half of his body became serpentine stretching five feet in length and a foot and a half thick. White scales covered his body ending in a raddle snake's raddle made of bright red scales. A cobra like hood formed behind Zegram's head, his head becoming more snake like. His sword also changed to resemble a snakes fang. A forked tongue darted out from between his lips tasting the air around him.
"So what do you think?" He asked as he started producing sluggard venom within his body. After a moment he produced a cloud of the stuff into the hair forcing it out from his body. The cloud quickly expanding filling the room they occupied. He readied himself for the man's next attack gripping his sword with both hands.

Takashi would simply look towards the man as he used another flash step like technique to back out of range of his blade. Takashi simply looked towards him with a rather indifferent look. The man seemed to have moved in order to avoid his blade. That told Takashi a great deal of things, but he wouldn't detail these out just yet. He turned to face him as he looked into the man's eyes with his dazzling blue ones, curious about this man and his strange demeanor. He blinked a few times as the man began his short speech, this would be quite informational.
The snow haired shinigami listened to the man as he began speaking of being an Arrancar. He was curious, his eyes narrowed as the man spoke of it being a cross between a hollow and a shinigami. Strange...how was such a thing possible. Takashi didn't make any attacks as the man himself didn't seem to be making any either. He listened carefully, shocked that this arrancar came from hollow origin. There were stages that the man spoke of from Gillian to Adhuchas. He couldn't imagine that these hollow feasted upon one another in order to get stronger. It seemed as though the next step after breaking the mask had been their evolution into Arrancar.
Takashi was a bit curious about this. Was it possible for Arrancar to be ones that develop consciousness? This man seemed to have it. However, he seemed just as driven and insatiable as the other hollows that Takashi had met previously. However, he questioned if hollows could evolve into a breed which possessed true consciousness. There were evil shinigami and good ones as well. His mind wondered if there could be equally good hollow and bad hollow. However, the way they came about this process or evolution was rather gruesome. However, if it indeed was a natural process such as animals feasting on one another...then perhaps this made sense.
His eyes narrowed once more as the man spoke of showing the difference between hollows and this Arrancar. Takashi could feel something changing around the Arrancar. What was more strange was the fact that he called out...much like a release. Was this man really transforming into a shinigami release? Did hollows too have a spirit which occupied them? How was it that the line between hollow and shinigami was just so ambiguous? Takashi couldn't help but question it in his mind. However, it wasn't the time to do so. It seemed this man was transforming into...something...that he wasn't sure exactly what it was.
It was finally complete and Takashi could see that the man's lower half of his body became much like a serpant. There were scales that covered his body and a cobra hood formed behind his head. It seemed it was rather obvious that this man's body would be lose and he would produce some poisons perhaps from being bitten. This was indeed interesting for him to him to change in such a way, he seemed to completely become serpent like. "I believe I have never seen a release such as this.". Takashi told the man honestly. He really had not seen an arrancar release before, this was beyond surprising to him. It seemed the man didn't make any movement so Takashi would make one instead.
He pushed forward a few feet, rushing towards the snake man. He had noticed himself becoming noticeably slower...this was definitely odd. There was something quite strange about what was going on. But now wasn't the time to notice such things fully. Takashi would swing his raised sword diagonally towards the man's left arm. There emitted a distinct blue shockwave as the man went to cut the other man. His intent was to cut him and then have the shockwave do the rest. The shockwave traveled at his speed and carried his strength and his weight for him. Something was definitely wrong though. Takashi could just feel that there was.
Technique Type: [Other] - Kidou, Quincy Technique, Bount Technique, Human Technique, Hollow Technique, Other
Technique Element: [None] - If any
Technique Description and Effects: [What does your technique do? How strong is it? What is it's range of abilities? List these things below.]
The user pours reiatsu into their body, and their sword, and releases it in a mighty slash attack. A small slash of reiatsu shoots outwards, and can cut with the same force as the user, if it hits. It also bypasses cutback effect, as well as comes with the user's weight. It feels like it hit the enemy with the user's body weight, on top of cutting into them or their tools.
Zeferoth pulled his body back thanks to his flexible serpentine body. He started to produce two doses of not only his Nerve Explosion venom, but also his Venom paralysis. He extended his left arm forming a blade of crystalized poison from the two that the two poisons his body was now producing. He held his zanpakuto in a high position and his venom sword in a low position. He just needed a scratch or two to in order for the venom to take effect. The nerve explosion would cause intense pain once it entered the blood stream and attacked the nerves, while the paralysis poison would take effect even if it just made contact.
Before the man could pull his sword back, he darted to the man's right with a downward strike with his zanpakuto aiming for his right shoulder. His venom blade would go low jabbing at the shinigami's abdomen, waist, and thigh with three separate jabs. Zegram was enjoying himself. It has been a long time since he has been in a fight that challenged his wits and power. He could feel the effects of the strain. His breathing was getting heavy and his arms were starting to get tired.
Bane Blade 300+ Venom Paralysis 125 and Nerve Explosion 150 if hits up to 3X 1150-300=850

Takashi could sense that this man was ready to fight. There was something unusual about what was going on around here though. Takashi was definitely feeling some strange effects. He felt a sudden rush of pain which caused him to grit his teeth, he was also getting slower as well. This was definitely painful, luckily, Taakshi would push through with his strength of his will alone. He needed to see for himself if Hollow were really evil or not. This was something Takashi would strive for...it was something he really wanted to see for himself. With that, he was pulling his sword upwards when the strange creature attacked.
With his left hand, Takashi rose up his sword, turning it downward instead of raising it up. This essentially had him hold the blade diagonally downwards, clashing with the Zanpakuto that Zegram had attacked with. The difference in strength would be clearly apparent as Takashi was nearly four times as strong as Zegram, perhaps it would push the blade back. There was now the issue of the Zegram jabbing towards the man's abdomen. With a simple horizontal motion of his right arm and stepping back with his right, he would avoid the attack. The sheath he held in his right hand near his chest was pushed to the right. His strength once again would push the blade quickly out to the left.
He was now standing perpendicular to Zegram. With that, Takashi brought his sword downwards towards the man's chest. As he did, he unleashed yet another Sakugan, intended to cut deep into the man's chest. Takashi could feel himself getting slower. The intense pain was mind numbing, but through his shear will power he kept going. This man had been set on fire and nearly boiled alive before, he was simply pushing through with the might that he had. After this attack, things would have to get much more interesting.
Zegram knew that he would have to eat an attack if he wanted to get anywhere. He brought his poison blade up to block the downward slash. At the same time he pivoted into the man switching his zanpakuto into a reversed grip. He went to plunge the sword into Takashi's exposed ribs. Due to the grinding of the two swords, the fine powder released was used to use his delirium brew to further confuse the shinigami. As the blade came down, he would try to push his sword up trying to make contact with his fingers, hand, or wrist. If that was successful, he would use his venom paralysis on his hand. He managed to push the blade just enough, so that the sword hit his left shoulder cutting deep into him.
