"Fighting with Fire": Continued Seto stepped through the gate, his eyes narrowed as the waves of heat blurred his vision. "Is this hell?" he mumbled, raising a arm to shield his eyes. "No." answered the god of fire, waving a hand and closing the gate. "It is far worse. If this is too much for you, I can return you to mediocrity."Seto fell to a knee, bringing his other hand to his chest. The heat threatened to rip the air from his lungs. "Mediocrity?" Seto gasped for air. "You call...my life...mediocrity? You...You insult me...as you...try...to kill me?" "Breathe deep, brother." The god of fire crossed his arms over his chest. "You won't die. You're immortal, remember. Breathe deep. As a god, you can adapt. But, within reason."Seto took a deep breath, the heat burning as it filled his lungs. He coughed, shaking his head as he took another breath. "It is absurd to think that I could adapt to the sanctum of a god of water." said the god of fire, walking over to the Shinigami. "But, you're a blank slate. You can adapt to nearly anything, the first time."Seto coughed as breathing became easier. He opened his eyes slowly, trying to see through the waves of heat. "The first time?" "Yes."Seto looked to the god, lowering his arm. "So, what's first?" questioned Seto, before being kicked directly in the chest by the god.

The god watched as Tervaden slid along the ground, gasping for breath. "Get up!" The god of fire summoned a sword of fire as he walked toward the Shinigami. He lifted his foot, coming down on Tervaden's chest. "You want me to train you. Then get up!" As he came down with his blade, Tervaden rolled from beneath him.
"Training me doesn't involves trying to beat me to a bloody pulp!" grunted Seto, drawing Chinmoku. "I know how to fight! You're supposed to be teaching me how to use my godly power!"
The god of fire turned quickly, swinging his blade at the Shinigami. "Then, use your power!"
"I don't know how!" Shouted Seto, calling on Chinmoku. He swung his partial blade, forming a shield.
"Use it!" The god of fire swung his blade again, shattering Tervaden's shield. "Use it!" The flames of his blade grew larger as he swung his blade again. "Come on, Tervaden! Use it!" His blade came down again as Tervaden formed a shield once more. The shield shattered. "Use it!"

Seto, growing angry, tapped Chinmoku's hilt against his leg. The cloud of Chinmoku began to swirl wildly, slamming into Alister as the god swung his blade again. Alsiter spun, avoiding Chinmoku. Grunting, Seto fell to a knee as the Alister raised his blade above his head.
"Use your power!" demanded the god of fire. "Use it or die!"
Seto spun on the balls of his feet, swinging his partial blade. Alister's blade met his neck, stopping halfway through his neck.
The god of fire pulled the blade from Tervaden's neck and watched as the wound healed. The Shinigami dropped his blade and rubbed his neck. "I told you to use your power, Tervaden. This is a wound that would kill an ordinary Shinigami. Now, we can keep this up. Or, you can learn quickly."
"You're an ass!" grunted Seto, wiping the blood from his neck.
"And, you're weak!" replied the god of fire. "Your three year old son learned to use his power before he could walk. And, you can't even muster the strength to even try to use it."
"I don't know how!"
"And, you think a three year old knew how?" The god of fire swung his blade again.
Seto shunpo'd quickly, dodging Alister's blade. "Fixing something is far easier than reflecting it!"
"Is it? Your excuses only prove me correct, Tervaden. You are weak!"
"I am not weak!" Seto narrowed his eyes at the god. "I just don't know how!"

"You don't know how?" The god of fire scoffed as Tervaden continued on. "Tell me, Tervaden. What were you expecting me to do? Were you expecting us to sit and meditate until you came to understand what it is you are? Do you believe that all the realms will wait until you've understood your power?" The god of fire shook his head as he looked to the Shinigami. "You asked me to train you, brother. My training you does not involve me coddling you and telling you that you can do it."
"You're supposed to be training me!" Seto slammed a fist into the ground. "You're supposed to be showing me how...How to use this!"
"Father told you that your power was similar to that of Yumiko Ryouma."
"You heard that?"
The god of fire nodded. "How does her power work?" Raising his blade, he disappeared. Seconds later, he reappeared in front of Tervaden.

Seto raised a hand in panic. As he looked to Alister, a shimmer appeared between them. "Mirror.." he whispered to himself. "Chinmoku..." Seto looked down as the partial blade and hilt disappeared from his hand. He looked up again to find Chinmoku had taken the form of Alister just as the god's blade came down. Chinmoku's blade matched the god's, as both came down. The blades clashed as a great wave of fire pushed them apart.
The god of fire smirked, as he lowered his blade to his side. "Interesting."
"What?" grunted Seto.
"The universe can take many forms." The god of fire pointed to the cloud of Chinmoku as he released itself from his form.
"The universe?"
"Your zanpakuto is space...Has-"
"Enough." Seto waved a hand as he looked to the god. ""Rebound and reflect. That's how Yumiko's power works. That..That is my power works. I've got it."
"Do you?"
Seto shook his head. "I can't teach the rest of them like this, Alister. I made a simple request and you try to kill me in the process."

"If I were trying to kill you," began the god of fire. "You would be dead." He looked to the shimmer that lingered between he and Tervaden. Watching as the man inhaled deeply and the shimmer disappeared, the god of fire smirked. "Now, to fight with fire."
"What?" groaned Seto.
"You're a kido master, Tervaden. You now have full use of all of your power. Connect them."
"How am I supposed to do that?"
"Think."
"Chinmoku is silence. Space. This godly power is reflection."
"And, what happens when two items that reflect are placed in front of each other?"
Seto shook his head. "Infinite reflection..."
The god of fire hummed as he place a finger to his chin. "Space. Infinite reflection. What do you need me for, Tervaden?"

Seto looked to the god as he continued to shake his head. "More reasons than I care to tell you. But, I thank you for this." Seto sheathed his blade with a heavy sigh. "If I ask a question, would you answer honestly?" The god of fire nodded as he crossed his arms over his chest. "What is it?""Sousuke Aizen. What do we do about him? How do we stop him?" "Fight fire with fire, brother. Sousuke Aizen has remained lifetimes ahead of all of you.""That doesn't answer my question." "You know the answer to your question!" The god of fire waved a hand, opening a gate back to the Soul Society. Seto narrowed his eyes as he stepped toward the gate. As he crossed through it, he turned to look at the god. "There's no stopping him. Is there?" The gate closed in front of him.
