It was a standard day in the Soul society if you could call anything that happened their normal.Byakuya was taking this chance to catch up on some of the paper work that had managed to pile up at the 6th squad barracks.Normally Byakuya would never have let the paper work pile up but things had been a little chaotic and paper work had been put off which was something Byakuya wasn't happy about as like all of the captains most liked to get the paper work done as fast as they could.
Byakuya managed to get most of his paper work done and decided that a walk was in order to see how his squad he left the door and headed toward the barracks main hall to check on the rest of the squad.On his way their he noticed a few squad members walking around and a handful of them training and decided to walk over watch to see how their training was going after all he wouldn't be a good captain if his squad wasn't combat readyand who better to help with their training then the captain himself.

Renji Abarai watched the squad members training, reminding himself to work on his Kido as he noticed his fellow squad member, Rikichi, was trying to grab a rogue hell butterfly.
The Redhead chuckled to himself, shaking his head and turning back to the squad members who were fighting. Wow, these guys are doing pretty good now, he thought. The scent of cherry blossoms drifted through the air and Renji stiffened.
The Redhead squared his shoulders, standing straight as his Captain stepped outside. Renji was trying his best to look like his Captain, not wanting to be a dissapointment to the dark-haired noble. His Kido and writting skills had improved slightly, but no where near the level he wanted them.
Renji held back a defeated sigh as he watched Byakuya Kuchiki stroll across the training area effortlessly. The man was grace and poise personified into a cool, calm, collected gentleman. Renji, on the other hand, felt like a clumsy, lazy baboon. But all depressing comparisons aside, the Redhead realized that the Kuchiki clan leader intended to help with the squad's training session.
Kami help you all, he's going to shred you into bits, Renji thought, silently sending a prayer out for his poor squad members.

As Byakuya made his was across the training field when he noticed his lieutenant stiffen to standing position once Renji had seen him.As Renji did this all of the other squad members who were training stopped and turned to face the captain. except one who was trying to catch a rouge hell butterfly.The men who had turned to face Byakuya all greeted their captain,"Good morning Kuchiki-taicho"the squad members said this with a bow and Byakuya motioned for them to continue their training and went to stand beside Renji and to stay out of their way at first.
Byakuya then spoke to Renji"Odd Renji I thought that you would be training along side the others Rukia always said you weren't one to sit on the sidelines when others were training?"Byakuya watched Renji waiting for his response and added one thing."You can relax Renji I'm not here to fight at the moment "
Byakuya then crossed his arms and watched the training he would watch for a bit before joining in to test the squad.

Renji bit back another sigh. It would figure that the only day I forgoe trainging with my Zanpakto, Captain notices, he thought sourly. His shoulder slumped a little, a growl of annoyance threatening to spill from his lips. The lieutenant buried it, glancing over at the noble.
"I need to work on my kido still, Captain Kuchiki. I figured today would be a nice day to try, so I'm just watching the other squad members train for a little bit." The redhead knew that his Kido was terrible and if he ever wanted his Captain to actually see him as a lieutenant, not a mongrel, he had to do better.
"Captain, I hate to bother you with this, but do you know of anyone who has some spare time and is good with Kido? I'm really tired of having my spells blow up in my face," just like everything else I do, his mind finished.
Renji almost slammed his head into the nearest wall, realizing he must have sounded like an idiot for asking Byakuya Kuchiki about something like that. The man didn't involve himself in everyone elses lives, he had his own things to worry about. So Renji stood tere twitching like an idiot as he waited for a reply fron his Captain.

Byakuya stood watching the training of the squads when Renji asked if Byakuya knew anyone who could help Renji with his Kido training and Byakuya couldn't help but slightly chuckle but quickly regained control of himself and then thought for a moment.
Byakuya the spoke with his normal noble tone:The only people that I could truly suggest would be the kido corp or squad 13 prehaps Rukia could help you".
Byakuya then allowed his hands to drop back to his side and spoke once more."However I belive it would be better if I saw to your training myself to prevent anyone from being injured from your kido".Byakuya said this and decided that it would be better to wait for the shock of Byakuya offering to help someone to were off before waiting for Renji's answer

Renji was indeed shocked by Byakuya's offer. So shocked that he openly gaped at the noble. The Redhead couldn't hide it as his jaw dropped and he continued to just stare in awe. He... Captain wants to help me? T-This is great! He thought, suddenly smiling like a idiot.
'You look like a fool master, stop staring beefore he hurts you,' Zabimaru hissed and Renji flinched, looking a the ground quickly. 'Damn it Zabimaru, you scared me! Quit hissing, you sound like a cat.' The Redhead remembered he hadn't asked when they could train, and figured it would be a good idea to ask.
"Thank you Captain Kuchiki. When can we start practice and where?" Renji asked, stealing a glance up at the elegant man before him. The sounds of the training squad members seemed so far away as Renji watched a gentle breeze brush Byakuya's hair to the side. The composed man not even moving as the wind stopped, his hair falling perfectly back into place.

Byakuya noticed Renji's look at Byakuya's offer and thought to himself.'Hmm I suppose that was a little odd for me to offer to help'Byakuya then looked around at the training field when Renji asked him were they could train Byakuya spoke to the squad members."Attention lieutenant Abarai and I are going to use the filed for Kido training I recommend you relocate to the secondary training field"As Byakuya said this a look of terror fell on the squad members because Renji's kido skill was well know.
The rest of the squad members that were on the field bowed and proceeded to walk away so that the captain and lieutenant could begin with their training and it was well know that their training could quickly turn into a small battle.Byakuya then stepped onto the training field and walked out to the center once he was their he turned and faced Renji.As Byakuya stood their the wind caught some cherry blossoms and blew them around the training filed as Byakuya spoke"Now then Renji shall we begin"

Renji sighed with dissapointment as his fellow squad members all but ran screaming from the training field. His Kido was bad but not THAT bad. Well, it was but they could atleast try to be less skittish any time his name and Kido were put into the same sentence.
But anywat, Byakuya had already take his place on the field, waiting for the bumbling Redhead. With that being said, Renji quickly stepped somewhat closer, looking straight at Byakuya.
"Captain, What is my target and which Kido spells do you wish for me to start with?" The Lieutenant seriously hoped this wouldn't be a Kido battle. Renji knew he would be on the ground and humiliated in under a minute.
Byakuya's Kido was extremely powerful, especially when he was fighting. Renji hadn't been able to get out of the black-haired noble's Rikujôkôrô a single time, despite his best efforts.

Byakuya waited as Renji stepped out onto the training field and got ready for the lesson to begin Byakuya also noticed that Renji seemed a little nervous.Renji probably thought that this would be a kido battle Byakuya thought maybe later they could spar but for now they would use the targets at the edge of the training ground.Byakuya finally spoke"We will be using the targets over their"as Byakuya said this he pointed at the targets.
Byakuya took a step to the side so that he was facing the targets and glance at Renji when he asked which kido Renji should use and Byakuya spoke."For now I would recommend that you start with low level and work your way up."Byakuya then waited for Renji to cast his first Kido Byakuya could then provide further guidance from their.

Renji internally jumped for joy, turning to the targets at the end of the field and taking a calming breath. Start simple, I can do this one. I know I can. Renji figured that starting with one would be best, but he really didn't want to. Yet Byakuya had said to start with low level, so Renji wouldn't disobey his Captain.
Renji concentrated, feeling his Reitsu crackle around him as he put his palm out toward the targets, taking another calming breath.
"Hado number One, Shô!" Renji watched as the hado splintered the target, instead of just knocking it backwards. He glanced to the noble, biting his lip nervously without realizing it.

Byakuya watched as Renji used his first kido which was the first kido Byakuya was raised an eyebrow but quickly went back to his trade mark stare.Byakuya then turned to face Renji and then spoke."Renji you have to calm your self and focus on controlling your spiritual pressure if it slips for even a second then your kido won't be as affective".Byakuya then turned and thought that a demonstration would be in order and raised his hand at the targets he then spoke."Hado 33. Sôkatsui" their was a flash of blue light as the kido went flying from Byakuya's hand a struck on of the dummies.
As soon as the smoke from the kido cleared the dummy was gone.Byakuya then lowered his hand and looked at Renji and spoke"Kido requires the user to have almost perfect control over their Spiritual pressure.They also have to contain the kido once it is fired other wise it won't have enough strength once it hits and won't be able to destroy the target".Byakuya then turned to face Renji and spoke once more."If you remember those two things then your kido will improve".

Renji watched the noble use Hado 33, destroying a dummy completely. The Redhead sighed to himself, pointing his palm back to the targets. The lieutenant closed his eyes, feeling the way his spirit pressure stayed mostly near him. Renji used a mental image of the energy gathering at his hand, compressing it into a ball of red.
Renji opened his eyes, focusing on keeping himself calm and controling his spirit pressure as his eyes locked on to a target."Hado 31, Shakkahô." The kido flew at the dummy, destroying it and leaving the surrounding ground blackened. 'It didn't blow up in my face! Awesome!' Renji thought, turning back to Byakuya. "That was ok, right?" the Redhead asked, waiting politely for the noble to speak.

Byakuya watched as Renji cast Shakkahô and it didn't explode in his face and hit the target Byakuya nodded as the smoke cleared and the dummy that Renji had hit with his kido was gone.This was a major improvement for him Renji then asked if he had done ok and Byakuya answered him."Yes their is some improvement in your kido skill but you should remember that kido when used with out the spirit chant are only about half of their strength how ever with practice you can learn to wield them at full strength with out it".
Byakuya then decided that they should move onto the other form of Kido and spoke to Renji."Well Renji before we move on with your Hado{Way of Destruction} training let's see how well you can wield Bakudo(Way of binding).Bakudo is almost the same as hado but when you use it you also have to control the amount of spirit pressure that you put into the kido to control how powerful it is and how long it will hold."Byakuya then pointed at the dummies and spoke."Now Renji use any form of Bakudo you wish and bind one of the dummies."

Renji nodded, turning back to the dummies and calming his nerves.Oh man, it's been forever since I had to use Bakudo... Renji thought, paling as he tried to focus.
"Hado number Four, Hainawa," Renji said calmly. The kido ropes slithered around the dummy, making a faint hissing sound as they locked together. The ropes tightened, crushing the dummy with the force of it. Renji looked over at Byakuya again. I think that was a little too much, he thought waiting for the Noble's critique.

Byakuya watched as Renji used bakudo number 4 but he put to much power into the kido and it crushed.Byakuya shook his head slightly and got ready to tell Renji were he went wrong."Bakudo Is very precise unlike hado one mistake and the kido will not work it will be unstable and ether wound an opponent or fail completely".
As Byakuya said this he was thinking of other ways to help Renji learn maybe Byakuya should make it challenging to motivate the young soul reaper but Byakuya wasn't really good at that but figured that the best way would be to put Renji under pressure.Byakuya then turned and spoke as Renji's kido finley released the dummy ."Alright Renji you seem to have the basics down just practice your bakudo more.But the ture mark of a skilled kido master is how well they use it in a combat situation".With that Byakuyas hand rested on the hilt of Senbonzakura.
