How long had it been since the bount escapade? Honestly, when rin faced weak opponents, it made her forget them entirely

'Ah, that's right, it's been a week.' rin stops writing her report and looks it over

"STUFF IT AKANE! THAT'S MY BENTO!" 'Jason?' "PISS OFF ASSON! I SAW IT FIRST!"

Rin sighs 'their at it again over a bento? Fuck sake' rin blinked 'they're driving me to use curse words now? Oh for Fu-'

"THATS IT YOU AND ME RIGHT NOW AKANE!" rin stops her rise from her chair

'Do my ears deceive me? Is Jason actually fighting Akane?'

"FINE! I ACCEPT!" rin groans 'maybe they're just training right?'

Rin opens the sliding door and sees akane and Jason both swinging their zanpakto at each other

Both held skill with Jason's ability to attack consistently and akanes parries keeping them even

Rin observed them noting their improvements since they joined the squad

'Interesting akane now directly attacks her opponents and creates opportunity for a deadly blow whereas Jason can parry her attacks instead of taking them on '

Rin hmms and grasps her chin in thought ' those two bring each others strengths and improve upon their weaknesses when they fight and its only been a few weeks '

"Oh captain good morning did you sleep well?" Rin hmms as Ben begins his daily meditation

Rin can only watch as both Jason and akane Duke it out

Jason was physically stronger than akane after all rin helped tune his swordplay

Quick and strong attacks were key in rins style but Jason had speed and good battle tactics

Jason blocks akanes strike and points his blade at her neck they circle each other before akane swipes the blade away only for the other to block hers

Rin hmms again 'his taunts have improved significantly did Ichigo have this effect? Probably not '

Rin sees akanes zanpakto fly from her hands and Jason had both blades crossed at her neck

"Concede..." akane sighs before Nodding " I surrender...."

Jason smiles before shething his blades he turns to his left and jumps back in shock

"EH CAPTAIN?! HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN THERE?!" He shouts but rin walks over to akanes blade and picks it up

"Since the start of your fight both of you have improved....akane remember what I said about your zanpakto?"

Akane nods " it's my life..." rin nods and hands the weapon back she places a hand on akanes shoulder " akane heed this advice there will be opponents that will never match you in a specific area that's why training in all combat areas will significantly bolster combat ability "

Akane nods at rins advice before rin spoke

"Jason with me I need to deliver some reports to the old man" he nods and both start to walk away

Akane stares at their backs " you should calm your mind akane" akane looks at Ben and sighs " how do you stay calm? It's quite interesting since your originally from kenpachiis unit"

Ben opens his eyes " emotion can cloud judgment while a calm mind can analyse all ways of attack for instance if you remained calm when Jason pointed his blade at you he would have backed off "

Akane blinks 'He's right I noticed his feet go back but I took the initiative he taunted me to get the desired result he needed clever bastard '

Ben hmms " let that help you akane for when you have your rematch you will emerge victorious "
