Please bear with me please this is a WIP (Work In Progress) and Itsuru is hoping to train with Peishin Senpai. --------------------------------------------------------
It is a quiet morning in Itsuru's room, he is sitting on his futon bed. (well I better discribe his room yes it has 4 walls, a ceiling and a floor).
In the North is a window with a balcony
In the North East is Itsuru's futon bed, 2 pillows, nothing much under his bed (unless you want to have dust under there) but his weapon of choice... Koori Jun.
In the East is a desk, on the desk is Itsuru's photo of his school friends, a mobile, His laptop and a bowl of skittles. under his desk to his left a bin and his right a create of you dnL (7up).
In the South East and South is Itsuru's sliding wardrobe with on his left side (from top to bottom) his Academy Uniform one is slightly different as one of the Hakama is red and a wash bin with the words "Shiro" (mostly in there is his more Tabi then his Gi) and "Yami" (where his Blue Hakama resides) and the right side his human clothes.
In the South West a sliding door to the hallway.
Nothing much on the Western side of the wall (pretty plain).
Zak Itsuru, Class outcast is sitting on his hard futon bed waiting for Peishin-Senpai (hoping Itsuru kept his side of the deal). Itsuru didn't need Husky-Kun to wake him up because Itsuru is too excited to see Peishin-Senpai (but...)
"What if Peishin Senpai dosn't come? What if he forgotten and got a hang over? I don't wanna train with Mitsurugi-Sensei or see him after school training with him just because I bring my shield, Come on Dammit... Must... Fight... Inner... EMO!!!"
Itsuru shock his head and took Koori Jun under his bed, took some dnL out from under his desk and stuffed them in his board bag. Itsuru reached out for his earphones to his mobile phone when...
"Sweet Ba-Boo Itsuru!!!" shouted Tenshi.
Itsuru jumped out of his bed and went to his balcony and leaned out seeing Tenshi-Chan waving at him.
"Yeah, Tenshi-Chan, what you want?" replyed Itsuru.
"erm... You got training with Sensei-Mitsy and he KNOWS that you are trying to bunk off with one of his lessons! If you need me I'll be in squad 4 and I'll fix you up."
"Oh, Great!, but on the bright side, I don't have Tenshi." thought Itsuru.
"Well I'm kinda y'know waiting for Senpai. he said he'll help me out in the 4 arts... or whatever he means by that" shouted Itsuru.
"No you better go there now, you are 15-20 minutes late as it is, I'm gonna love ya and leave ya, see ya... *wink* my sweet Ba-Boo." shouted Tenshi.
Itsuru was waving his fist about and broadcasted.
"I am NOT your SWEET BA-BOO!" shouted Itsuru in rage and went back to his room.
Itsuru puts on his board bag and just as he was about to slide the door...
Dun Dun Dun!
Mitsurugi-Sensei barged into Itsuru's room and took him by his white Gi.
"Come on Itsuru-san, you're wasting everybodys time so there gonna make up for it... WITH YOUR TIME" said Sensei Mitsurugi starting to carry Itsuru on his shoulder.
I hope Peishin-Senpai will get to see Itsuru... before Itsuru needs medical attention.

Peishin was picking his way through the academy halls, letting his eye wander now and then as he spotted a particularly attractive student. He was in full uniform, his zanpakuto hanging at his left hip, his ocarina dangling from a strap at his right. He'd tied his lengthy hair back into a ponytail and was carrying a spare sword.
As he was passing a lecture room he noticed another good looking student.
This meant he didn't see Mitsurugi-sensei dragging Itsuru along. They collided and ended up in a heap on the floor. They picked themselves apart, Mitsurugi spluttering with rage and quite anxious to be on his way.
"Peishin!" he exclaimed, realising who he was. "What are you doing here?"
"Mitsurugi-sama," Peishin bowed respectfully. "You're looking well."
"Like hell." It was common opinion that Mitsurugi was the ugliest sensei in the academy. "Stop with the small talk, I asked why you're here."
"For him."
"For Itsuru?" the sensei blinked at the boy. "Why?"
"I said I'd give him a quick lesson or two in my spare time, Mitsurugi-sama. With your permission, of course." Peishin lifted the spare sword. "I hear the poor kid's having some trouble with his zanjutsu."
"Some?" Mitsurugi glanced from the boy to the Shinigami suspiciously. "Alright, you can have him, this time." He pulled Itsuru round to stand face to face with him, his large fist tightly gripping the boy's shirtfront. "But let me tell you this, boy. You'd better have improved some the next time you walk into my classroom, or I'll really teach you a lesson you won't forget."
The sensei stormed off to his class, ignoring Peishin's bow as he went.
Once he had turned the corner, Peishin straightened and held up two fingers in front of Itsuru's face. "Two things you need to remember," he said.
"One," he let one finger droop. "Always show the proper respect to your superiors. This is an army, boy. Two," the second finger joined its fellows, and the whole hand turned to display the scarring across his knuckles. "He means what he says. You'll need to put a lot of practise in."
He looked the boy up and down. "Alright, let's go. Take me to your room."

OOC: i'll explain the word "zanjutsu" later.

Itsuru gave akanbee at Misturugi-Sensei as he went back into the academy. Trying to keep in then came an outburst (good thing Mitsurugi isn't there to hear Itsuru's remark).
"Remember this too, I have more respect for you Senpai, then anyone else! and THIS is an academy, ya dumbass!" mouthed off Itsuru waving his right fist around as his left arm is restricting his right.
Itsuru lets out a heavy sigh and nodded. while walking back to Itsuru's dorm room being followed by Peishin-Senpai. Itsuru looked at Peishin (not knowing much about him he was practicly a stranger to him but only knowing his name). so Itsuru had to ask.
"You know, I havn't known anything about you yet Peishin-Senpai, tell me about yourself?" asked Itsuru.

He sighed. A big, world-weary sigh.
Peishin reached out and grabbed a fistful of Isturu's hair, yanked hard enough to get him to stop, and forced his head around to look him in the eye. He wasn't angry, but slight annoyance showed in his eyes.
"Didn't you listen to what I just told you, boy? Show proper respect to your superiors, I said. I meant it." He let go of Itsuru and kept walking. "First thing you need to understand is this is an army. That means you are under military law, and can you guess what that means?"
He paused to give the kid some time to think.
"It means if you step out of line, you can be executed."
Peishin sighed again.
"Look, Itsuru. You're alright, you know? I don't wanna see you get hurt, or thrown out because you chose the wrong time to complain. Keep those comments to yourself, or say them to your friends, but never say them out loud to a superior or you might end up in trouble."
He smiled back at the kid and hefted the asauchi he was holding.
"Come on, let's get started."

Being held by the arms tightly as Itsuru was looking at Peishin's eyes they have an angry look about him. Itsuru's heart was pounding really hard and his stomache felt like it's grabbed from Peishin's tone of voice as Itsuru was starting to get nervous... surely it's not the same man he met for the first time. Sure Itsuru maybe hot headed but he hates to admit it but Peishin Louh is right, Itsuru is starting to feel the guilt he looked at Peishin he was starting to feel frightened of him.
"What is this? I never felt this before, is this that "sprite pressure" my teachers were telling me about in class? I never sensed this from senpai." thought Itsuru
--- OOC: Itsuru called it Sprite on purpose (he knows it's pronounced spirit) ---
spiritually unaware and finding it hard to breath Itsuru couldn't say "sorry" but instead he stepped back from Peishin. Itsuru eyes were full of fear, he felt like he didn't wanted to train with senpei, he would rather be everyones "punching bag" then this, tried so summon enough courage to say anything... ANYTHING, but the only word he can whisper to Peishin was...
"Oni" whispered Itsuru.
Still afraid of Peishin he never felt anything like this before, Itsuru can now sense something (he never had when he first came to the academy) he quickly equiped Koori Jun nobody is gonna protect him now, so he stepped well away from Peishin.
"No... I can't do this... I can't fight him... he's too strong... if I did... I would die... I got no choice... I've GOT to run away from him." thought Itsuru starting to feel confused about what to do.
"Leave me alone... I HATE YOU!!!" screamed Itsuru and started to run away from Peishin to the dorm.
When I was young, I always belived that there are monsters that live under our beds or in the closet, now that I am older... I belived that there are monsters that live in our hearts. - Zak Itsuru

Eyes wide, Peishin was too shocked to stop the boy running away.
"Was it something I said?" he wondered aloud.
The zanpakuto at his hip whispered in his mind's ear, You were too rough.
"Too rough?" he frowned. "Damn. This is going to be tougher than I thought."
It was simple to find Itsuru's quarters. He simply knocked on a nearby classroom and volunteered a student to help him navigate the academy halls. Before long he was standing outside Itsuru's room, thanking the student who had guided him.
He faced the door and knocked quietly.
"Itsuru? Are you in there?"

Peishin is in Hallway 2 to his left (where Itsuru lives) is a long winter graffiti in the end of the winter picture was a picture of Itsuru, and the right was a very short piece of spring graffiti. Hearing Senpai's voice from outside his room, Koori Jun is on Itsuru's futon and Itsuru is outside in the balcony curled up against the wall carrying a sword bag and 2 boots with wheels on his hip.
"What was that? Did I see senpai's spirit, it's red and HUGE!, it was like had another channel or something."
--- OOC: Itsuru = Channel, English = Personality ---
Starting to calm down, that was his first EVER ability he ever did as a Shinigami (but was it really his?) Itsuru stood up.
"Ok, lets try this again, I'm sure it wasn't a fluke." said Itsuru, talking to himself.
Itsuru closed his eyes, he was focusing on his breathing, he is starting to see alot of blue/green flames in the academy. It seemed like Itsuru is watching everything inside (but not the changing rooms, they blocked that). With this he was teaching himself how to sense things (that spirit pressure lesson did sank into him) still focusing... he saw two blue/green flames out Itsuru's room one is leaving the dorm and the other is just standing there. Itsuru stopped he was starting to feel slightly vertigo.
"Woah, that took alot out of me, I better get something in me" thought Itsuru as he started to drink one of his bottles of lemonade and took a few skittles out of his bowl.
starting to feel better, he heard a knock on the door and Peishin's voice, he seemed like he was conserned about him. Itsuru is sitting on his futon and held his Real Asauchi(s).
"Y-Yeah, I'm here, the door is unlocked." said Itsuru starting to recover from that shock.

"Y-yeah, I'm here, the door is unlocked," said Itsuru from inside.
Poor kid sounds terrified. It seems I have a lot of work to do before he goes out and meets his first Hollow.
Peishin slid open the door to Itsuru's room and blinked in surprise to see the boy sitting on his bed, an asauchi held in trembling hands. He wondered for a moment if the kid really planned on attacking a ninth seat.
"Does this mean you want to start your lessons with some sword-training?"

OOC: what are winter and spring graffiti?

Itsuru stuffed his Asauchis and his rollerblades in his board bag, with his bag on his shoulder he looked at Peishin.
"Yeah, I'm ready to train now, it's like that Mitsurugi-sensei said, I need to improve next time I come to his classroom."
Itsuru clicked his heels and jumped off of his futon, bowed at his photo frame and got out of his room, starting to smile he touched the Winter and Spring graffiti down the hallway.
"Winter2Spring, This is one off my favourite works of art, everytime I'm sad or upset... the winter picture grows and if I feel happy spring starts to blossom... as you can see Peishin-Senpai... spring is not much to look at to be honest with you, the one who did this is anonymous but s/he does seem to know me." said Itsuru.
--- OOC: I hope this answers your winter and spring graffiti. ---
Itsuru smiled.
"You see I have to share this floor with everyone and they don't seem to stop and appreciate it like I do." said Itsuru as he is starting to trust Peishin.

OOC
thanks for editing. i have to confess i forgot about the fact that Shinigami use mobile phones to keep in contact with each other. i wonder what power source they use? ah well, a debate for another thread i think.
on with the RP ^.^
-----
"There are training grounds in twelfth squad territory," Peishin said, "but I don't think we'll use them today. I'm taking you down to the Academy grounds."
The two of them walked through the halls, able to hear the murmur of busy students on either side of them as they passed different classrooms. Outside it was a hot, still day, with a clear blue sky above them.
Peishin brought Itsuru to the closest training ground.
He unfastened his zanpakuto and placed it to one side, then drew the spare asauchi and got into stance, feet wide, knees bent, the tip of the sword pointing directly at Itsuru's face.
"First thing's first," he said. "Show me what you've got."

Itsuru is glad to get out of that class room where Mitsurugi-Sensei is (when he was inside, itsuru didn't move at all) but as he is outside he felt like he can move more freely.
Itsuru puts down his board bag by a bench and took out these strange boots with wheels (Itsuru calls them rollerblades) he puts them on and got out his asauchi bag he was given since his first day. pulling the string and pulling the asauchi case down, two asauchi swords were revealed to Peishin.
One of Itsuru's asauchi is in it's sheath, hilt and guard (this is what Itsuru is going to use for this session) and the other one don't have a sheath AND no guard (yet it isn't like a katana it's more like a scimitar).
"OK Senpai... You're in for a Zak Attack" said Itsuru with a cocky attitiude.
he pushed his left leg to launch, Itsuru is moving alot faster then he was running, with the sheathed asauchi in Itsuru's left hand Peishin on his sights
"Let's give you my Zak Attack: "Shockwave"... Crap I forgot my other Asauchi"
Itsuru homed in on Peishin and trying to improvise a tactic.
Edited by Mattokenzi - That's me with sword anatomy for you. ^^

OOC:
a wooden sword is a bokken. an asauchi is a normal sword, so it'd be metal.
i think you meant that your sword doesn't have a guard, as you said "hilt", which means your sword doesn't have a handle...
this is going to be a short post...

Peishin was aware of everything around him. The training yard was a mud-floored, brick-walled square empty of everything except academy equipment. Dummies the approximate shape and size of a person's torso lined one wall, and a rack of weapons was affixed to another. Black scorch marks signified kido practise had taken place in the last day or so. There was no shade, the sun was directly above them, and the mud below radiated heat.
He snapped to attention suddenly, intent on Itsuru's speech.
Zak Attack?
A bit unprepared for the strange style Itsuru was using, Peishin decided to let him come. He tightened the grip on his asauchi and bent at the knees a little more.

Switching the sheathed asauchi from his left to his right and aiming for Peishin's chest, Itsuru sped up abit.
"Ok, lets knock senpai back so hard that he'll land on his butt with my "Zak Attack: "Lance Lunge" and go back for my other asauchi THEN go back to senpai and give him a Zak Attack: Shockwave... or..."
Looking breifly at peishin's zanpakuto on the floor still in it's sheath.
"Nah Senpai would just tell me off if I "borrowed" his Zanpakuto I don't wanna see him angry again, All right lets do this... LEROY JENKINS!!!" thought Itsuru.
--- OOC: Did I just say that? ;D ---
gaining speed and Homing in on senpai closer and closer, a gentle wind is blowing on Itsuru's face; seeing Peishin stance he seemed ready for what Itsuru is gonna do. Itsuru pulled his right arm back and ready to thrust his right arm (the one with the sheathed asauchi) to Peishin's chest.
"Zak Attack: "Lance Lunge"

Itsuru lunged at him with the sheathed asauchi.
Why didn't he draw it? he wondered.
His reaction was simple. He slid his right foot away from his left and bent at the knee, which left his extended left leg directly in Isturu's path. The boy was off balance, leaning forward with the thrust of his weapon; any contact between their legs would send him sprawling in the dirt.

Peishin attempt to trip up Itsuru worked, Itsuru's right knee is in the air and not thinking about maintaining his balance he just wanted to hit peishin once (if he can just hit senpai just once, maybe he can have a chance on taking on the other academy students who laughed at him from day one). still shacking and hopping on his left leg, Itsuru had no choice but to do the back-up plan (the zanpakuto by senpai's side).
"Zak Attack: ShockwaaaAAAyyyYYY~"
Itsuru swung his asauchi to Peishin's shoulder, a reverse kick on Peishin's left hip and still wobbling he leaned to the side and picked up Peishin's zanpacuto and atempted to aim for the shoulder.
as Itsuru's attempt failed he swung his arms and fell on his butt with a "THUD!" and a odd red egg fell out of Itsuru's right pocket, sitting on the floor, Itsuru looked down on Peishin's feet and looked up slowly, he looked at his black hakama.
"Aww man, he is gonna get angry at me, I know he will. come on Zak, look at him in the eye, if he is angry was can try and sence that preasure of his." thought Itsuru.
Continuing on looking upto Peishin's white belt and looking at peishin's masculine chest, Itsuru let go off the zanpakuto he "borrowed" briefly , Itsuru is now looking at the neck and is starting to shake, Itsuru finally sees a silhouette of Peishin's face, not seeing his senpai is furious about Itsuru's stunt he tried to pull. Itsuru got on one knee and kneeled to him.
"Ha ha ha, just look at him." "Kneel loser!" "You call that THING a weapon?" "Itsuru, stop using that shield and use a asauchi like everyone else." "Ha ha ha, he couldn't even bother to draw his asauchi." "Itsuru, draw your asauchi, NOW!" "Which sounds better? Itsuru the class clown? or Itsuru the class outcast?"
Itsuru's inner emo is now stiring.
