This day may have been like many others in this town, at least for those that belonged here. For Jin it wasn't so normal it was something different for him. It was a day that for some odd reason brought back memories of the past, and especially something that got him in to a bad mood, since it was something he had so far been unable to do. Something that even he had been unable to do yet atleast but his hatred and will to destroy it could never disappear, not at all.
To some things would fade overtime, for some it would never fade, and for him it was a ever present in his mind, every time he closes his eyes it keeps reminding him of it, the failure of the past. But the past can't be changed no matter who you are.
Jin would be walking in the outskirts of the town, with his mind clouded in thoughts but since noone could see him, or that people would be anyone that would dare to approach him without a reason for that. To do that deed I will need to go about it slowly, even if I want to rush it like in the past. Speaking out loud to himself, as he was plotting something in his mind, a devious plan to achieve his goal

Andreas walked along the outskirts of the town watching the view and speaking with Daten-shi. As he turned a corner he saw a strange man walking towards him appearing to talk to himself. Andreas could feel an overwhelming power coming from the man. As he passed him seeming to ignore him he over heard the man speak. Stopping in place he looked over his shoulder speaking. If something is to be rushed it is surely to fail. Time is a detrimental part of any well laid plans. Finishing his sentence he continued walking Daten-shi yelling at him in his mind.
What the hell are you doing? Did you not feel the power coming from that man? With a hint of annoyance Andreas spoke back. I did but there was something else that piqued my interest i cant quite place it though. Daten-shi let out an exasperated sigh and fell into silence.

As Jin was in his thoughts he didn't really notice this man that had ended up speaking to him, until the voice of the man was heard. Speaking so freely to me, maybe I should toy with him a little to leave the plans for some other timeAs those words echoed in his mind, the distance between them had increased a bit, but it still wasn't very far, within a instant Jin would appear in front of Andreas, from having used a soundless Shunpo. His eyes not bothering with the man in general but would simply stare straight forward.
So you put your nose in places you shouldn't, for someone as weak as yourself. You think by trying to be like that you would be someone? Hiding, sneaking, cowering in a corner befits those of your level trying to speak freely to me. What had originally been uninterest in his eyes had changed to that of wanting to see his reaction, to see wether he truly had something within him or if it was nothing.

Andreas smirked as the man shunpoed in front of him though it was soundless. The man stared almost through him but strangely he wasnt afraid of the man. Every cell in his body told him he should be terrified but he ignored them and met the mans eyes. Sneaking is for the weak of mind and heart. I find i fear nothing even death is not a fear i hold. Death would almost be a freedom from the torments i have seen. I speak freely to those that i choose. He crossed his arms over his chest and watched the man carefully. If it came to a fight the winner would be obvious but as he had said death was not a crutch to be used in anything Andreas did.
Daten-shi screamed at him in his mind calling him all kinds of vulgar names. He ignored her and held his posture not averting his eyes from the man.

(OOC: my shunpo doesn't produce any sound, skill makes it that way So it seemed there was half a spine in this person, but that was besides the point, as Jin would hear those words, he started to want to do just that. But it seemed this man before him thought that fear was just so simple. Before Andreas even had finished speaking a laugh could be heard from Jin. So you think, that death is the worst fear you can imagine. Poor, poor you, what if I show you a fear nothing will protect you from, nothing will shield you, and death won't save you from it. You seem to think that having no fear makes you strong. For having never experienced true fear, what would you do when that moment strikes you? The moment you know nothing, nothing can free you from it. When the time comes you will know what I spoke of.This was far more fun than Jin had originally thought it to be, atleast it kept his mind off of "that" thing that keeps his mind busy at most times. It would seem as he would turn his back on Andreas and slowly start tilt his head upwards, looking up at the sky, as there seemed to be quite a number of clouds coming towards the town, maybe there would be rain, maybe there wouldn't be. What was certain was that the wind had started to pick up a little speed and it could be felt to a certain extent.

Andreas listened in silence as this powerful being before him spoke of a fate worse than death and asked how he would react to it. Andreas smiled at the thought Well i think if that situation came to be i would laugh and egg the executioner to make it as slow and painful as possible. Andreas watched as Jin stepped away and looked up at the sky. Andreas closed his eyes as the breeze blew by him tousling his long hair. He uncrossed his arms and looked up at the sky as well watching the sluggish clouds cross the sky. What does someone of your stature go by and why are you in this blasted plane of existence?

So it seemed this man was trying to make himself sound so good, but even if he spoke the truth it didn't really matter. Jin would still be looking up up the sky and and the clouds that would eventually come to be above the town. As Andreas stated his question, Jin would turn around as more and more of his reiatsu would start pouring out from him, covering the area in a unimaginable fear being emitted from the reiatsu.
You think you can ask me a question, your a fool young one. The time for questions the weak state are long gone. Questions won't give you answer, since I won't be giving answers to someone that is nothing but a insect before me. For now Andreas was merely slowed down and affected by the fear coming from the reiatsu. Fear, being afraid is not a weakness, it is a strength. Unless you understand that you will just fall no matter what you try. The voice that spoke to Andreas was in the same tone as any of the others before, nothing had changed about it at all, no raise or lowering in the power of the voice, it merely was there at the same strength.

(OOC: Sorry for the long wait i was trying to figure how i wanted to answer this.)
Andreas felt the reiatsu slow his movements and the fear emitting from it made his body tremble against his wishes. His mind kept at bay the emotion of fear but his body could not be handled so easily. True fear was not something you could hide. If you consider me weak then train me. I will become stronger. I will destroy what enemies there are to destroy and will work my ass off to fight till my life is taken by a blade. Daten-shi spoke now her voice laced with fear and rage. What are you doing you know nothing of this man what if he is the enemy you swore to slay. Andreas frowned speaking in his mind to Daten-shi. If it comes to that i will one day strike him down. However for the time being he is the strongest person i have found.

Soon after Andreas would have realised that fear truly was something beyond what he had imagined before. A slight smile could be seen on Jin's lips. Shortly after Andreas would have that feeling of fear it would fade away once again. So you seek to become stronger. Well, well you've already made progress from before you met me on these streets of this world. And I would guess, you have some reason to be seeking the power of someone like me. So let's get back to introductions, I'm Jin. What about you? I would also like to know about more why you seem to set on gaining power. So it seemed that Jin was in a better mood than before, since it seemed that there was more of a understanding between the two of them to a extent atleast. Hmm wonder why this one wants to gain power. There's so many reasons he might want it for, but a reason to gain it is always fun to hear Those thoughts was within Jin as he waited for a response.

Andreas' body still had tremors run through it even though the fear had receded. He stood silently for a moment thinking on his reasoning for wanting strength. Daten-shi constantly listening in her tone showing her disdain for his thoughts. I have something i want to destroy. They have caused nothing but pain and using there own power i will annihilate them until there is nothing remaining but ashes. His body trembled now not from fear but anger thinking back on the situation that had caused all this hatred and knowing he had dealt the first blow already. He would need power to continue the onslaught. He would one day bring the Soul Society and its corrupt ways to its knees.

So it seemed this one could have some amusing future if there was truth to the words coming from Andreas. Hmm destruction of something isn't the hard part you know. It is much more enjoyable when they know their doom is on it's way, yet they can't know when, or how it will happen just that it will happen. A pause would be taken as Jin had spoken those words.
There would be a few moments of silence that was soon broken as Jin had a few more things to get on with. It would be nice to know your name, as you know mine. Oh yeah, you should be prepared for a rough time if I'm to teach you anything. I don't hold back very well. Your life might come in to danger if you slip up to much or to many times. As Jin spoke it would appear to be quite serious on the point that it was purely the truth that Andreas might get hurt if something wouldn't go right during training. Just aswell that Jin left it open for Andreas to have any comments about it by mentioning it right away instead of later as to see if this one had a spine or not.

Andreas stood a little straighter as Jin spoke of dangers in training. I will undergo any danger and overcome any obstacle in my pursuit of my end goal. As you said it would be much more fun to watch them squirm but until i am able to just that then i will hold to my goal of utter annihilation. As for my name i am merely called Andreas. He bowed slightly from the waist to show his respect to the more powerful Jin. Daten-shi spoke up in his mind her tone resigned but no more less urgent than before. I fear your a fool making a pact with the devil himself. Andreas smiled inwardly and spoke back. Perhaps but even a devil has a few tricks of there own.

As it seemed Andreas claimed to be ready to do things, but Jin doubted that this one truly was ready to see hell. Yet that wouldnt affect wether he would show Andreas hell or not. So you finally give me your name Andreas. I wonder how long have you existed, to just reach your level ? Jin spoke as he focused for a instant before wondering how long this one had been around. For the powers he would know from this one, seemed quite low to him.
Hmmm I can understand why someone like him wants power, since he has none. That brings back memories not having powers, that was so many years ago, even the start of that war is close in time unlike that, but I held power, but not the power I needed then. At the final thought he clenched a fist and a fierce look could be seen for a instant as it soon passed, he returned to the previous state and calmed down.

Andreas looked up into the sky thinking all his life that he could remember over. I have only held my power for 16 short years but have lived a munch longer life. I dont remember much before my time in the other plane but i know it was much longer than that. He looked down at Jin just as he clenched his fist and then just as quickly relaxed. Soon after i achieved my power i left having seen something in my time i wished i hadnt. That same thing is also what put me on the path i now walk.

So I'm correct on this aspect aswell. That you are young, I have held my powers for as long as I have a memory, which is hundred of years. Not the same level but you get the point that your young and I'm ancient. For now, what do you want to learn? Pick one thing you wish to improve in particular and you shall recieve some aid in that when the time comes.He spoke completly certain of all the facts he spoke of now, since it could very well have been possible that Andreas might have existed for longer than so before he learned the information that he had not.
The time to strike will come for you, but I wonder will your power ever suffice to bring someone down ? It means far more than just saying you will. It might just mean the destruction of everything that exist that is what will happen if you acomplish your goal. As Jin pretended a bit in it but it held a sliver of truth about his own goal which could bring about the destruction of this whole world.

Andreas stood silently thinking over what he most badly wanted to learn. There were many things but he was unbelievably slow in comparison to most of the other shinigami he had met. Settling on his speed for the time being he lifted his eyes from where they had dropped to the ground. In comparison to what i should be i am slow i havent even the strength to utilize shunpo let alone know the basics of it. When i become stronger and Daten-shi allows i will learn bankai. If my goal ends in the destruction of the world it be of my doing but of their own fault that it came to that.

It seems you have a long way to go, before your goal will happen, but you made a good choice. Speed is essential to any kind of fight. It doesn't matter what power you have if you can't touch your foe. As those words left him, it seemed quite weird to him, that he ended up with a student once again, since the last one he had was Kuro, and it simpled ended up that way. You should count yourself lucky, that I will teach you a bit. Wether you learn or not will decide wether you live or die by my hand. A simple smile on Jin's face as those final words were told to Andreas, since life would for sure end if he didn't accomplish anything under Jin's guidance. For not improving would simply mean he would disappear so to say.
Jin might have been a bit kind when he went along with teaching this one, but that didn't mean his methods of teaching would change. For if you can't do something when you need it the most you will never be capable of doing it, and thus you would be useless to him.

Andreas smiled as he bowed at the waist to Jin. Thank you sensei. Daten-shi spoke her melodious voice echoing through his head. I still believe you a fool for allying yourself with a creature such as he but if will allow you to become stronger then complain i can not. Andreas lifted himself from his bow his hand automatically falling to caress the hilt of his sword. So when do we begin master?

Jin would ignore Andreas for a while, merely looking up at the sky as he watched the clouds moving, as this reminded him of times long ago. The times before the war started, when Jin had Kuro to teach, even if he didn't like the memories in particular that much, it was still appearing in his mind freely. Starting at a designated time or place, won't make you adapt in a real situation, think of what you want to do. Then try to do it, I'll correct you as you go on, if you don't get anywhere on your own. Feel free to do anything you like, but you should know that what you might experience from now on isn't something you start or stop simply because you feel like it. I will stop when i determine it to be time to stop, and it won't matter if you are exhausted or anything. Clear?As Jin spoke he would take a few breaks in between to see that Andreas had the time to think about what Jin had said. It clearly couldn't be called regular training for sure, but nothing about Jin could be called regular to begin with.
Also if you are attacking me at any point, never hold back thinking it's training, intent to kill is baseline if you wish to remain.Just a thing Jin had forgotten to mention earlier and merely did as he remebered it. It was a time of change that would occur, for Jin to use so little power was a rare sight for anyone that knew him, or the kind of power he truly held beyond what could be felt being emitted from him.

Andreas smiled as he stepped back and looked up at the sky. His right hand reached towards the sky as if to pull the clouds from it. Sharpening his reiatsu as much as he could he dropped his hand and drew his sword. Spinning around he charged at Jin the intent to kill obvious in his eyes. He had long ago learned that everyone would one day need to be struck down and such had no reservations about cutting down even someone he called master. Closing the distance as fast as he could he swung his sword in a wide horizontal slash aiming to cut Jin in half.
