Training between the top (Dark and Kou, Private)
by Koujetsu Hanagayu Mon Dec 28, 2009 11:58 pm
Koujetsu sat in his room, looking over the papers his spies in Soul Society kept brining him back. He sighed and rubbed his temples, he could feel a headache coming on. That was never a good sign. Ever since he had conquered his inner hollow, he had thought it gone for good, but it appeared, that was not the case this time around.
Since that day, whenever Koujetsu had been stressed, or annoyed, a migraine would occur. It was during this time that he felt Yami's presence most, the presence of his inner hollow. Slowly however, during the time that Koujetsu kept it at bay, it had developed a new name for itself; Caranore. Koujetsu did not know what this meant, beyond the fact that he was getting stronger.
Another pang struck him in the head, and Koujetsu rubbed his temples harder, trying to will it away. It never worked before, but he kept doing it, hoping that it might actualy be a normal headache for once. Alas, it was in vain as the familiar feeling of insanity bubbled and disappeared, much like a small air vent under water would let the air escape from time to time. Koujetsu sighed and stood up, the panging in his head disorienting his sense of balance. He stumbled a step or two, and barely managed to grab his Zanpaktou, before heading out of the door and signaling for one of the carrier pigeons that the Vaizards used for intrabase communications, and sent it to find his apprentice, using a little amount of reiatsu to set its brain on the target, turning it into a basic homing projectile. Letting the bird go, Koujetsu started walking down the hallway and towards the training grounds, ignoring the throbbing in his head that occured every time he took a step.
Bracing against the wall, Koujetsu stumbled down the last step and into the sprawling training area. As he walked out of the doorway, the artifical sun that the Vaizards were using as a light source burned straight into his eyes, causing him to trip and land on his knees, his right arm covering his eyes from the blinding light. He began to crawl forwards, stopping when he felt a cool stone and removed his right arm slightly, allowing, a limited amount of shaded light to enter his field of view. Sighing in relief, Koujetsu put his back to the rock, encompassing his entire body in shade, and closed his eyes, entering his mindscape.
A chill wind shot across the field, causing Koujetsu's cloak that he wore to flutter widely. Of course, the chill did nothing to effect him, it was just a breeze. He wasnt here to speak to his Zanpaktou, and he had the feeling it knew that. Instead, his eyes peeled against the blinding glacier top, looking for the source of his headaches. A shift in the wind brought a faint roar to his ears, and Koujetsu looked upwards, noticing a pale blue against the blinding white at the top of the glacier. He growled under his breath slightly and made sure his Zanpaktou was tied to his waist tightly. Turning to the side, he pulled the hood of his cloak over his face and began the long trek to the top of the glacier.
The journey itself was not easy, as was to be expected. Yami was a bit of the pain in general, and arrogance just extruded from its pores. The test, the "Trial of the Wasteland", was not an easy one. Memories long forgotten had plagued Koujetsu on the way up, his family, his old friends, his time in Soul Society. The old emotions were unlocked, and Koujetsu found himself shivering, in agony and pain of the emotions past. Yet he continued, more determined than before. These were his memories damn it, not some play toy! This blasphemous beast inside of his had no right.
This little journey, of course, led Koujetsu to his current position, standing in front of a giant, pale blue ice dragon, icicles hanging from under its nose, giving it a beared and mustache appearance. The temperature up here was much, much colder, chilling Koujetsu's very soul. Yet he stood there, and stared at the beast, demanding without words why it was still plauging him.
Instead the beast just turned to face him, appraising him almost. Koujetsu felt violated by his stare, and was about to move when the beast spoke, effectively freezing him in place.
"Yes... Youve done nicely with yourself since that day... Very nicely. Good, good..."
And with that, the beast disappeared. Koujetsu unfroze, and twisted his head around, looking for it, when a blast of frozen air hit him directly in the chest, and flung him backwards. Off the edge of the glacier. Had he not been stunned, not been filled with the pain of merging, Koujetsu would have tried to move. As it was, he was helpless, and helplessly falling into the abyss of his mind. Only the pain remained soon, the feeling of having crushed ice forced through his veins and arteries. And then it was gone.
Koujetsu opened his eyes, still sitting in the training ground chamber, where he was before, still waiting for his apprentice to join him. He stood, THEY stood. Moving his mouth, their mouth, the being spoke.
"Now... we are one. Now it is the time for them to realize the true power that we possess."
His eyes a permanent gold due to the emrging, Koujetsu turned his head to the door as it opened, the light dimmed in his eyes and the headache completely gone.
"Now.. let us show them fear.."

Some time a few weeks ago...
Karakura High School
That was one of the darkest moments in Dark's life; coming so close to killing an innocent Shinigami, his being swallowed and nearly extinct within himself. The fact that he was dying was horrifying; the fact that Tamatenshi, another part of him, was completely powerless in that moment and also dying was even more terrifying. This horror drove him.
It scared him.
But the moment when he overcame Light, thwarting his plans with Tamatenshi's help, he had hope, and just escaping that predicament, he only dreamed and wished that that was the end. But he knew that it wouldn't be it. The light left the sky as the sun had set, closing the day and putting all of its inhabitants to sleep, yet Dark still sat on the roof of Karakura High School, his eyes glued ahead of him, his heart racing from his near death experience, awake.
Perhaps this is the moment where he could say that he was truly awakened. Awakened from a deep slumber that left him paralyzed and incapable of true potential.
Somewhere deep inside the depths of his confined mind and conscience, a spine freezing howl rang through him; Dark's eyes closed and opened again, his eyes shifting colors from its normal dark earthy to the cold red and green. He growled in hunger and set off through the darkness, lost.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some time last week...
Inner Realm
He was on the ground again, breathing like he'd just run miles without resting through the harshest weathers known combined. The sweat was dripping from his forehead, his eyes barely open, arms too tired to even move. His breathing started to slow, but it was still uneven as he stared at Light's glaring eyes which were set in an unforgivable malicious grin, whose very sight would sting and poison all that dared to oppose it. The raging battle within himself had been constant and enduring, worst than last time, and he was losing sight of his goal.
"You're weak, especially without my power! You think you can compare to me?! THINK AGAIN, DARKIE!!"
Releasing another barrage of slashes, Dark blocking all of them with effort, Light zigzagged his way around the retaliation Dark attempted to pull and raised his Bankai released Zanpakutou, uppercutting Dark's chest, sending him into a comatose like state as he slowly fell, his own Bankai released Zanpakutou slipping out of his hand. Light's menacing chuckle emanated throughout his inner mind, Dark's vision fading as he felt his blood drip from his fingertips.
No...not like before...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today...
Outskirts of Karakura Town
Sitting, perched upon a large boulder, Dark stared at the sky, watching the clouds move slowly, drifting across the forever clear and blue sky. He gave a low sigh and yawned; the day seemed too lazy. Having no sense as to where he should be or what he should do, Dark folded his legs, crossing them, and placed his hands on his knees, closing his eyes. He slowed his breathing and let his senses numb themselves, sharpening his hearing after he slowed down his heartbeat. Every single rustle was made clear, every silent slither strengthened, each blade of grass cracking as it swayed.
Then he heard it...
