| "Hmph." Shadow, an expert swordsman talented in the art of assassination, sparred against another Reaper in the Reaper Academy. In a near blinding speed, he evaded a downward swing from his opponent and disarmed his opponent with a downward slash onto the enemy's Zanpakuto handle. "Argh... You've beaten me again! It's been about 15 times in a row, and not once have you ever released your Shikai! Just how do you do it?!" Shadow's opponent looked on in surprise. "... Focus and drown out all distractions from your mind. A clear head keeps you perfectly locked on to the battle. You may not understand it now, but one day you will." Shadow replied. His opponent thanked him and left to spar with another foe.
"... I have not even revealed my Zanpakuto's other application. The trainees are definitely striving hard, at least." Shadow muttered to himself. | |

| Nikolai stood from the background, taking out his sword and slowly walking towards the other Reaper. | |

| Shadow quietly gripped his sword, hearing the footsteps approach him from behind. "... Nikolai. Here to spar?" Shadow quietly said as he turned around to face the other reaper. | |

| Nikolai took one huge, fast step, accompanied by Shunpo to execute a jumping kick square in the reaper's chest. He would try to see how long he can go without his sword. | |

| Shadow braced himself against the impact of the kick, sliding backwards a few feet. He retaliated by using a lunge thrust. | |

| The Reaper decided to do some exercise, eh? Whatever. Nikolai again used Shunpo to take a step, landing himself behind the other Reaper, executing a swift fist jab to the back. | |

| Seeing his opponent use Shunpo again, Shadow stopped his attack and backflipped into the air; with his opponent below, Shadow performed a corkscrew spin attack. | |

| Nikolai looked up and sidestepped, so that his opponent would plummet to the ground. He needed to make sure to avoid as much damage as possible. | |

| Immediately upon colliding with the floor, Shadow darted toward Nikolai and made two wide horizontal slashes toward his torso. | |

| Nikolai, realizing that he wouldn't be able to do this on brute force alone, removed his Zanpakuto from its sheath, and held each end with one hand, so that it would provide some sort of defense. | |

| Shadow repeatedly slashed Nikolai's Zanpakuto, trying to keep him on the edge. | |

| Nikolai shifted the Torch Blade in all directions, making sure to avoid damage by having the katana clash with the twin swords. "Maintain your battle stance. Extend the height of your senses. Do not let your guard falter." | |

| Shadow eventually swung his blades from both sides of Nikolai's katana and held down the slash in an effort to trap it. Once caught he would then thrust his blades forward into his opponent's chest. | |

| Nikolai took one hand off the tip, so that his right hand would be doing all the work. Then, he executed a swift punch to the stomach while the other Reaper held his twin blades. The elder reaper was especially trained in melee combat, and could figure out ways to expose openings that weapons cannot cover. | |

| "Ngh..." Shadow grunted as the punch landed on his stomach, sending him tumbling backward but he landed on his feet. He then immediately darted back to Nikolai, continuing his flurry of slashes. | |

| Nikolai, continuing his defensive approach, shifted sideways with the power of Shunpo, better known as Flash Step. | |

| Seeing his enemy use Shunpo, Shadow did several full 360 degree spins in case his enemy decided to attack from the side or behind. | |

| Nikolai felt a cold steel run against his chest, and took three steps back to avoid what would have been a killer cut. | |

| Shadow stopped his spinning motion once Nikolai moved back and glared at him, changing into a neutral stance. | |

| Nikolai examined the skin that was shaved by the twin blades. No blood, but tender, he thought as the cut turned purplish-pink. "Bring it." | |

| Shadow calmly took steps forward to approach Nikolai until he was right in front of him. | |

| Nikolai held his sword in a horizontal position, with one hand latched onto the handle. | |

| Shadow dashed to the side toward the hand that held the sword, making a wide horizontal slash with the sword arm closest to the enemy's sword arm and a vertical slash with the other. | |

| Nikolai saw the Reaper going for two slashes, and used a Shunpo step to dart six feet away. | |

| Shadow chased after Nikolai, repeating his double slash. | |
