A new battle

*Rizu walks through the deserted wasteland, taking a deep breath in before exhaling slowly.* This place is quiet enough. *She sits down and crosses her legs, shutting her eyes. She feels an aura in the nearby area and sighs, opening one of her eyes.* No silence today hmm...

Fukaku appeared, the darkness in his aura apparent. "No... not yet..." Fukaku said, as his aura swirled around him. He felt the negative emotion coursing throuh him, threatening to change his very being. "Shiniami..." He says, sensing the reiatsu of one of his enemies. Fueled by this darkness, he moved towards Rizu's position, his aura making his intentions very clear.

*Rizu frowns slightly, standing up as she feels the aura approaching her, very clearly with bad intentions. She looks towards the man advancing towards her and tilts her head, calling to him with a warm smile on her face.* Why so angry?

"Shinigami... Get out of this area. This territory is reserved by the quincy. I won't suffer to have a shinigami dirty it with their footsteps." Fukaku said, some part of him struggling against the murderous intentions running through him. This woman had been kind to him, in the past, and for some reason, it had touched him deeply. It felt as thouh killin him would truly damn his soul.
"Move. Now." Fukaku said, his voice not like him as he summoned his bow.

*She blinks, taken aback by how much darker his aura was, realizing who it was.* N-Nayamasa-san? Is there something wrong? Put your bow down...I meant no harm, I was merely meditating.

"Didn't you hear me? Go! As fast as you possibly can!" Fukaku said, desperately fighting against what his instincts were pushing him to do. "I... I can't hold back." Fukaku said, taking aim.
After a few seconds, he finally drew and fired, hundreds of arrows pouring from his bow.

*Rizu quickly shunpos above the spray, a few of the arrows grazing her on the left arm and leg. She looks down at Fukaku, realizing there is something wrong. She shunpos behind him, speaking softly.* Nayamasa-san...I'm afraid I won't be running. If you intend to fight me, then we will fight. *She holds her right hand out palm-forward.* Bakudo # [1]9. Horin. *As she speaks, a tendril of orange and yellow kido energy shoots out to wrap around Fukaku's midsection in hopes of binding him and subduing him.*

Fukaku jumps high in the air, firing arrows at the tendril with his pinpoint accuracy to break the tendril.
"Spinnenentz!" Fukaku says, opening a ginto capsule, which creates an array of spiderweb to catch Rizu, binding her if it hits.
"Fine, shinigami!" Fukaku yells. a black sphere of energy appears on his bow as he begins preparing his most powerful technique.

Bakudo #81, Danku. *As the spider webs come towards her, Rizu forms a large, transparent barrier between her and the webs.* Perhaps I can knock some sense into you Nayamasa-san... *She shunpos up into the air and holds her hands out as Fukaku charges his attack.* Hado #73...Soren Sokatsui! *She sends two powerful beams of blue kido energy hurtling towards him.*

too Naive!" Fukaku says, Firing at Rizu as she fires the hado. The blast, specifically used to destroy shinigami Kido, and, after a second of delay as the two blasts vie with each other, manages to overpower the hado, and moves towards Rizu, freezing everything in it's path. Directly after firing the blast, Fukaku switches back to firing regular arrows, targetting and tracking Rizu with his brutal barrage.

Bakudo #39, Enkosen. *As the blast comes towards her, Rizu summons a kido shield for extra support on her right side, shunpos to the lower left of the blast and summons a huge burst of freezing cold reiatsu, combatting the freezing cold with her own.* Damn...I can tell this isn't going to be easy. Best cut to the chase then. *She unsheaths her zanpakuto, holding it above her head.*

Ban...kai. *As she speaks, her zanpakuto dissolves into a flurry of snow, surrounding her and bonding to her skin and shihakusho. When the flurry dissipates around her, she reappears wearing a bright white, knee-length kimono, the scarred mark on her chest connecting her and Hisame very clear and glowing white. No longer possessing a zanpakuto, she glows a bright white, the ground freezing beneath her feet.* Hisame. Kori Hana.

"Ketsugo yami no Hashira." Fukaku said, his irises turning black. black energy poured from him and into the ground directly below. splitting into 6 lines of black reiatsu, they moved over a range of 100 feet to create 6 black pillars on the ground, neither having reflection nor shadow. the black pillars seemed to emit a chill around them, and any reiatsu in the area, by anyone sensing, could be noticed as being absorbed. Fukaku stared at Rizu, not appearing to even be able to recognize her anymore, before charging with his seele schneider in hand, ready to strike.

*Looking around her as these black pillars form surrounding her, she begins to feel herself getting drained of spiritual pressure. In response, Rizu suppresses her reiatsu output the best she can. As Fukaku comes at her with his Seele Schneider, she thrusts both her hands palm-outward at him, sending a powerful arc of ice towards him.*

As Rizu fires the ice at him, Fukaku shows the speed given to him by the power of his sanrei by using hirenkyaku to dodge right away in a blur of speed, now approaching Rizu from another side. Getting closer, he struck out with his blade, a strike intended for the heart... though, it seemed the aim was slightly off, and would likely only give a small gash in Rizu's side even if it did hit. It was quite odd for Fukaku, even as he was, to make such an error in trajectory...
