The Test of a Servant {Training Thread}

[Aurora Guerrero]

Aurora was pleased with herself as she walked over towards her Espada. She was happily chewing on the beast's flesh. She thought about it for a minute. While tasting it, it sure didn't taste like a hollow. Which makes sense, considering that this was from the Soul Society. Maybe it was for that reason that he tasted completely different. She tried to think of an actual word that would describe it and she could almost say it tasted like sunshine. It seemed to be the best word.

She was contemplating on this flesh while the Tercera was walked over doing whatever he was doing. She did notice, when she finally got to the bone, that a huge steel box appeared where the cage was. It was shiny, so of course she had to go investigate. She slowly walked towards the box, keeping her senses on full alert. She had no idea what in the hell he would throw at her next. She sniffed around it and just stood there, curiosity getting the better of her.

She heard him actually say she did well against the beast, but this fight would be harder and if she died, it was her own fault. She just rolled her eyes at him while she saw the box pop open at the top. She stepped back a few steps and then when she figured it was in the clear, she slowly walked towards the box, seeing the human inside dressed in white. "Are you just so lazy you don't want to train me Tercera? It seems like it. Though, with this human, can I eat her?" She threw the bone over her right shoulder, hand on her blade ready.

[Sargon Denumic]

Sargon was twirling his glass once again and already drinking the blood from the clear glass when Aurora spoke. The silver haired Arrancar looked his Fraccion in the face and gave her a cold stern stare. "Aurora don't go running your mouth again. Your starting to raise your head don't go back to looking at the ground." Sargon was of course referring to how he always stated that Aurora wasn't at the point where she could learn at his feet hoping the Fraccion at least made the connection.

The female human in the box all of a sudden was holding a bow in her right hand and fired off two different arrows that were a silver color. One of the arrows was on the path towards Aurora's chest and the other Sargon's face. Whether or not Aurora dodged was up to her Sargon simply sat in his chair regardless and watched as the reiatsu of the arrow broke apart off his face. "Do your best Aurora."

[Aurora Guerrero]

While her Espada was talking to her about not running her mouth again, she unsheated her sword. She assumed from the first time that this was another test for her. First it was the bear man and now this human that looked asleep but wasn't asleep. She could tell by the breathing and scents that this human was alive but didn't seem awake. She didn't know if it was drugged with something though she couldn't smell anything. It was interesting to say the least.

She had her sword out in front of her, blade facing outwards with it on its usual lean, tip of the sword towards her left shoulder, hilt towards her right hip, standing right next to the box. She then felt something off when the woman sprang up of the of box with her bow. So, Aurora was pretty much standing right next to her outstretched bow. When the woman sprang up, Aurora moved her body to face the woman. Aurora was so close, she wouldn't get hit with an arrow. Instead, she immediately slashed at the woman, aiming for her right shoulder and diagonal slash all the way to her left hip.

[Sargon Denumic]

Sargon knew how close Aurora was to the box yet it wouldn't make much of a difference. Whether she was able to defeat this Quincy or not had yet to be seen and hoping would reveal Aurora's potential if not help guide her towards it. As Aurora brought her zanpakuto down upon the Quincy female the body vanished. In that next moment that female would appear a few feet behind Aurora and would fire off two silver arrows aimed for her torso.

This quincy was attempting to use the box against Aurora if she could wound the Fraccion then she could trap her in the box and fire upon her body until the hollow bitch was dead. Then it would only be dealing with that asshole of a Arrancar who sat behind her and had managed to capture her in the first place. This girl wasn't going to let a bunch of Arrancar kill her especially when it looked like they were toying with her like a play thing.

Remaining Reiatsu: 1940 {2 Class 6 arrows}

[Aurora Guerrero]

Aurora figured that the attack would be too easy for her to win that quickly, but it would be nice for once. Though, once her blade was about ready to touch the woman, she disappeared. She cursed herself, growling as she did so. She knew that it was too good to be true. But, she didn't take her guard down at all. She knew that crazy Quincy woman was around this place somewhere. She didn't know how far that step technique she used would go, but she figured that she didn't leave the room.

But, she didn't need to get pinned against this box. She assumed that's what the woman wanted to do to her. So, she took three steps away from the box, sideways with her left facing towards the main door, her right facing the box, sword in its defensive position, tip towards her left shoulder, hilt towards right hip. She was trying to stretch her senses to try to find this woman when she appeared on her left side. She immediately started to move her body in that direction and the Quincy shot off two arrows in her direction.

Since her sword was already in a good position, she was able to bat the arrows away. She then had to quickly decide what to do against her. She knew that she needed to get in close, since she would try to get farther away from her. She started to run her top speed towards the woman and would slash at her again. Well, at least she would feign the slash. She switched the sword to her right. Right before she would slash out, she would shoot a Bala out of her left hand, aiming for the Quincy's chest.

[Sargon Denumic]

Sargon continued to watch as Aurora was able to deflect the two arrows that the female Quincy had been able to fire off at her. Sargon could immediately tell from the sitting position that this Quincy was attempting to pin Aurora to the bow or at least shot her to the point that the Arrancar fell in where she had ben only a few moments prior. It was then that Aurora fired off a bala right at the Quincy and Sargon could see that the actual power of her reiatsu had increased a rather good deal since he had claimed her in the desert.

The female Quincy leaped to the side only to have her left arm get hit by the bala. After the screaming pain of the female stopped Aurora would be able to see that the left arm had been injured to the point that the flesh looked half cooked. All of a sudden though the bow changed into a smaller shape and the girl began to fire out arrows right at Aurora. The Fraccion would see that arrows were being fired off yet without the use of this girl's left arm.

The Quincy was using a technique that worked like a machine gun and at this point the Fraccion would need to do something very important to be able to evade or blast her own way through all of the arrows that were moving right for her. Sargon simply sat in his chair watching the silver arrows from right towards his Fraccion slightly curious to see if she had learned enough to deal with this type of situation.

[Aurora Guerrero]

Aurora watched as the Quincy would try to jump out of the way of her Bala, but her left arm got hit. While she was shooting off the bala, she watched the woman move and figured since she was in close enough already, she would slash out at the woman with her sword that was now in her right hand. She was glad that she was able to get in close to this Quincy. She knew that she needed to stay in close and use her strength to her advantage and not let the Quincy get too far away.

Aurora smiled evily at the sound the woman screamed out. There was so much pain in it from the bala. It was such a nice sound, she would need to hear it from this woman more often. She could smell the burn on the woman's arm and could easily tell that the left arm would be next to useless now. She ticked off one thing that she needed to do to end this fight. But, what happened next was interesting. The bow changed and she was shooting off arrows at her again.

She had never seen a bow change quite like that and it intrigued her to say the least. But, she noticed that the arrows being shot at her now were of higher speed and of greater quantity. Since they were still in fairy close proximity, she quickly bent down, hoping to avoid the arrows that were coming at her and shooting off another Bala aimed for the woman's legs. She hoped to take the woman's legs out so she could crush this Quincy.

[Sargon Denumic]

Sargon watched as Aurora managed to land the hit on the Quincy and knew that her aim at least had improved a decent deal. Then the Quincy went ahead and used a technique that she had figured would have taken him out when he captured her. Sargon was interested to watch how Aurora would deal with the barrage of arrows. To his approval Aurora had reacted rather nicely. She had managed to drop low so that a few of the arrows passed over her. Then fired out another bala that clashed with the remaining arrows causing a minor explosion of reiatsu.

Sargon had seen enough now of how Aurora could deal with small insects that would have killed her if he had left her out in the desert. All of a sudden there would be a slicing sound and Aurora would watch as the head of the female Quincy suddenly just fell from her body to the floor followed by her actual body. Sargon from what she could have seen though had never left his chair and was still sitting there looking at her. "Well you've certainly grown to think at least Aurora."

[Aurora Guerrero]

Aurora watched with pleasure as she was able to avoid the arrows like she had planned. The Bala also had ended up doing something interesting. It seemed like when she sent the Bala off, she didn't know that the Quincy woman could just lower her bow and start shooting down. Thankfully, the Bala that she had sent towards her legs intercepted the rest of the arrows that were coming her way. She made a note to actually remember that Quincies could switch arrow locations like that with a move of her bow.

While she was still squatted and cursing herself for not thinking of something so simple, she heard a slicing sound. She looked and her sword was still with her. She looked up in time to see the Quincy's head fall away from her body before the body crumbled onto the floor. She stood up fully and looked back towards Sargon. It seemed that she was done with this fight. She was curious as to why the man just ended up finishing the Quincy.

He then commented, saying that she had grown to at least think and she growled. She was still easy to rage, but she did like the somewhat compliment from her Espada. It seemed that he was finally recognizing how good she was. Obviously, he saw improvement from when she was in the desert. It was one thing she was proud of, the strength she has attained since becoming a Fraccion. "Thank you Sargon. Though, why didn't you let me kill the bitch? It would've been some fun. I was close too."

[Sargon Denumic]

Sargon watched as Aurora starred at the body of the Quincy girl. It was obvious that Aurora assumed Sargon had been the reason why the head of the girl so suddenly just fell from her body. She had been correct although his comment on her learning how to think at least seemed to rise her anger a small deal.

No matter Aurora was filled with rage and she would always be until it consumed her. Sargon just plans on that happening after his Fraccion has brought a decent amount of fame to both herself and him for having her as a servant. It was then that the Arrancar asked him why he had killed the girl so quickly even when he could see that Aurora would have been able to kill her.

Sargon grinned at his Fraccion as he set the wine glass on the stone table top. Right after that though the slightly above average height Espada stood from the stone chair he had been in spectating his Fraccion. “Aurora you’ve made it painfully obvious that you don’t believe I’m taking enough interest in training you. I’ve pointed out earlier that your assumption was wrong and I have simply been preparing you.”

Sargon stepped towards his Fraccion his figure moving through the dim light huge space that was his chambers. “Well it seems that you have obtained the raw power to at least test yourself against me once again. As it stands right now I don’t believe you possess the power to force an Espada to release. Masa had been able to defeat you. However, the weakling had resorted to his release. Nonetheless right now is the time for your true training to begin.” Sargon looked at his Fraccion every single word leaving his lips was filled with pride as if a god was offering a mere mortal the power to manipulate the universe.

[Aurora Guerrero]

Aurora stood there, looking at the man that had picked her to be his Fraccion. Their relationship was an interesting one. He sent her out on missions, while she carried them out and did whatever she pleased in between the missions. When she would report in, he really didn't give her a lot of details about performance, unless he found out that she had to work with other people to get to her objective. Then she would get punished.

The punishment was getting starved for a bit before he let her eat. It was one of the reasons why she would eat before turning in a report, in case something like this happened. Though, she was always curious how he knew how many people she was with and their race. Now, he told her that he watches her without her realizing it. She's been mulling that around her head ever since he told her about it. She was so curious about it, she wanted to just ask outright.

But, she knew better. He probably wouldn't tell her and since whatever he was doing wasn't really impeding her, she wouldn't worry about it too much. When her Espada smiled, it was weird. She had never really seen him smile before, unless a sneer counts. He stood up and continued to say that she believes that he wasn't taking enough interest in her training. Damn straight he wasn't! Who in the hell would just send off their Fraccion with missions and sit on their ass all day?!

He said it was preparting her for something. He walked towards her, she kept her back straight and eyes on him. She would not show signs of weakness. From what he was saying now, it seemed that he wanted to test her again. When he said that she doesn't have the power to force an Espada to release, she growled a little. It was true that she asked Masa to release so she could see it, but she figured that she would have the power to do so. He wanted her true training to begin and she was ready. Since her sword was still out, she laid it out horizontally with blade out, looking at her Espada. "I've been waiting for this for a long time, Tercera."
