Karin growled and shunpo'ed around to his side. He blocked her again and and she shot off a red bolt of Kido at the great mass in her way. "I am not just doing defensive," she muttered as smoke filled the area. "You just have a big sword."

Ichigo side stepped and raised his blade. "It's not the size of the blade that matters. It's how you use it." He swung his blade at her, sending a wave of blue energy. "Getsuga Tensho!"

An idea formed in the back of Karin's head as she leapt out of the way of the blue-black energy. But could she pull it off? She shook her head, eyes narrowing. Now wasn't the time to hesitate. As another wave of energy rushed towards her, she spun to face it. "Bakudo No. 39: Enkosen." She grimaced as the force of her big brother’s attack pushed her back, then smirked, dropping the shield and letting it push her backwards. This is going to hurt, she muttered to herself. She kicked off a boulder, ignoring the twinge in her ankle and charged Ichigo with the momentum behind her, swinging her sword. Come on!

Ichigo blinked in surprise at the speed at which Karin was flying towards him. He tried to block and parry, but she quickly maneuvered her blade, slashing his chest as she flew past him. He winced and stumbled back. However once he recovered, Karin was already upon him again. She slashed out at him. Ichigo barely raised Zangetsu to block. She attacked him with all of her speed and strength. He only had a small window of time to react with each strike.
He grinned at her. "Nice one. You're getting even better."

Karin grinned back. “I’m not done.” She locked her sword with Ichigo’s and swiped his foot out from under him again. She grimaced as this pulled her throbbing ankle, but pushed off, using Zangetsu to back off and not end up on the ground. A spark of heat bit into her hands and she stumbled.
What's your name?

Ichigo noticed her stumble from his spot on the ground. He stood up, giving her a concerned look. "Are you okay? Did you hear something? Did you feel something?"

"Just another spark that burned me," Karin grumbled, accepting his hand up. She glared at her asauchi. "Can I throw this against a rock and see if that makes her speak to me?"
Ichigo chuckled. "How do you know it's a she?"
"Only a female could be this stubborn about not talking," Karin muttered darkly.

Ichigo laughed. "Yeah you're probably right about that. And no, you cannot. Be nice to your sword. It'll tell you when it thinks you're ready." He scuffed her hair, smiling at her. "You'll do great. I know you will."

Karin glowered at him, fixing her hair, and then raised her asauchi. "Fine then, I will kick her ass after she answers me, and before that, I will make her wish that she spoke up sooner. Heads up, Ichi-nii," she called, charging him once more.

Ichigo just barely blocked her shot, his eyes going wide. "Hey! Not fair! I wasn't ready!"
They continued to exchange blows back and forth, switching from offensive to defensive. Karin was getting better and better by the minute, using her abilities in increasingly creative ways. Ichigo couldn't have been more proud of her as they continued to spar.

Karin smirked as the weeks of near constant sparring with her big brother and her teacher started to finally yield results. Now to make you come out, woman, she growled to herself. She braced her feet on the ground and launched herself at Ichigo, slashing at him and then kicking as he blocked that move. Come on, hard ass. I know you can hear me.

Ichigo blocked her kick as well, then swung at her. They continued to spar, unknowing that Kisuke was standing nearby, watching them.

It had been a while since Kisuke was standing there watching them spar. When they parted ways, Kisuke walked up to them, resting a hand on Karin's shoulder. He looked to Ichigo as he shook his head his gaze then going to Karin.
"Still nothing, huh?" He adjusted his hat and looked at her.

Karin shrugged. "Sparks of heat continue, but no, I don't hear a voice." She glared at her blade. "She's going to get her ass kicked for being this lazy."

"Well then what do you say to a little field trip?" Kisuke asked looking to the both of them. They said nothing as the turned and walked away from them back to the entrance of the training field.
He stopped after a few yards and looked back at them with a hand on his hat. "Are you coming or are you going to stand there all day?"
