Raul watched as the sword came toward him, stabbing. He jumped back, letting himself fall flat on his back, before kicking with both feet from this position, regaining his footing, and unsheathing his zanpakuto. "So, now, if there's going to be a clashing of the zanpakuto, I hope you're ready..." He said. "I don't miss often..."
And he was off, using Shunpo to whirl around Kaishou in many different and inconsistent patterns, slicing at him with his zanpakuto lightly and continuously...

Kaishou was hit by both feet. He was hit below his chest, making him reel back. He had recieved two more bruises. He closed his eyes in pain, before opening them when he noticed a sudden whizing noise. It appeared as if Raul was all around him due to the afterimages. A red liquid squirted into the air infront of his eyes. Looking down to see his shoulder was nicked, he was then cut in many different areas.
He stuck his sword forward again, hoping Raul would run into it. He pointed his left hand behind him. "Hado number four! White lightning!" He said, creating a steady stream of electricity.

Raul noticed the sword, and stuck his own zanpakuto up to block, making him halt. Thus, he did not venture behind Kaishou, because there was no purpose. He flash stepped away, and smirked, running his hand through his hair. "You're skilled, and excellent at planning out a battle...but I'm sorry to say, my natural talent isn't easily beaten..."
And with that, he smiled. "Alright, then. I'll release. Not because I need to, but because I feel I owe it to you..." He raised his zanpakuto, and commanded, "Kashou, Uvarel..."
His sword burst to life, a bright orange-yellow blade. Even from Kaishou's position, the temperature in the area rose a good 5 degrees. "How about a demonstration?" Raul asked. He was off, then, using Shunpo and whirling around Kaishou, swiping his zanpakuto. Not to hurt him, but the presence of the zanpakuto near skin was enough to make him sweat and, at the least, lose grip on his own weapon, and have trouble formulating thoughts...

Kaishou stared at the metallic blade that came in contact with his own. Sparks flew into the air due to the sudden friction of metal. Now that he knew there was no purpose for the white lightning, he brought his left hand over to wrap around his hilt, to add pressure to the sword. Once Raul shunpo-ed away, he let his sword rest at his side in his right hand, while his left hand rested on his left side. He smiled at the compliment he was given.
"If your natural talent was easy to beat, I would have beaten you by now," he explained matter-of-factly. It was then, to Kaishou's surprise, that Raul released his zanpakuto. He didn't realize Raul would go to such measures so soon. Moments later, a bright orange blade whipped around him, the heat increasing. It was like a lightshow of nothing but orange light. He gritted his teeth, before jumping up and doing a flip. He landed about 5 yards from the swirling heat.
"Alright, Raul. Looks like I'll release, to match your challenge," he said as his sword began glowing bright blue. "The problem is, my zanpakuto is a long range type, while yours is short range. Drown him, Mizukemono." He commanded. His metallic blade shattered and was replaced by a blue, double-edged, sapphire blade. He wouldn't show Raul the true powers of his zanpakutou, not yet anyway.
"Come at me, Raul," he said, raising his released zanpakutou.

Raul chuckled. "Ranged type, eh?" He said to himself. "That'll be fun. A test for my speed..." He grinned once more, and then he was gone. He grasped his sword's hilt with two hands on the way, and smashed down at Kaishou with quite a bit of force, especially with the momentum of his Shunpo going his way. He then whirled himself around, and threw another kick at Kaishou's midsection. Raul was truly one for wearing his opponent down, rather than going for the quick kill. He didn't enjoy battle, but he did enjoy showing his superiority. And toying with opponents was one was to achieve such a thing...

Kaishou stared at the speeding blur that was rushing torwards him. He was standing there, holding his ground. It wasn't excatly the best move for the situation, but his feet couldn'y exactly carry him fast enough to avoid the assaulting shinigami. He raised his sapphire sword to block the blade. Once the two blades meant, Kaishou's started to crack. Before he could assess the situation, he felt a sharp blow to his side. Feeling the air get knocked out of him, he hit the ground rolling, allowing himself to get up quickly.
"My body can't keep up with such a shunpo," he said bluntly. He then shunpoed about twenty feet away. He raised his sword, moisture in the air forming around it to fix the cracks. Flipping his wrist forward, the blade turned completely into water before taking the form of an attacking serphent. The whip-like snake lunged forward. Staying low to the ground, the snake circled around Raul, staying at the height of his calves. Once it had made a full circle, it shot up above Raul before sharply turning down, his mouth open in an attempt to bite Raul's right shoulder.
Kaishou looked down at his side, where another bruise was forming. He knew he had to do something about Raul's speed, and that was why the snake had circled around Raul, making footwork hard.
"Oi, Raul. A simple strategist like me is finding it hard to cope with your speed," he complimented.

Raul dodged the snake's bite, and Shunpo'd around. However, when the coils began to get too much, he concentrated and took to the air, floating via spirit energy by his feet. "Why thank you." He said, bowing. "But the show ain't over yet." He picked up his sword's sheath, and held it in his off hand, deciding to use it to block. "Let's see how adaptable I am..." He joked, and used Shunpo once more to get behind Kaishou, throw a vicious blow at the back of his head with his sheath, swiping at his side with his sword, and sending yet another leg around, looking to trip Kaishou up so he would have the advantage..."
