I fell backwards out of my body and onto my rock. I really hated that sensation. It was creepy and weird and getting hit in the head with a cane was never pleasant in the first place. I pushed myself off of the rock and stared at him with a scowl.

"Isn't there a less painful way to do that?" I asked.

He laughed and tapped the cane against his shoulder. "Not that I have access to."

I placed a hand on Yoso nervously. I wasn't sure if I was going to draw her or just sit there with my hand on her hilt. I let my fingers tighten around the hilt. I could swear I wasn't in command of the action when I drew her after a few minutes of just standing there. I blinked and then I realized Urahara wasn't standing in front of me anymore.

Something slammed into me from behind which knocked me forward onto my face. Luckily I'd thrown my hands out to catch myself—but I dropped Yoso in the process. I scowled and grabbed her and got to my feet.

"You really have to be more attentive." He said, holding a blade.

I didn't say anything but I did charge, however, he was gone by the time I reached where he had been standing.

"You're slow." He said and I charged again, but he was gone again.

I spun around trying to find him when he suddenly slammed the hilt on his blade into my shoulder, knocking me onto my back. Yoso was thrown out of my hand and skidded a few feet away. I scowled but couldn't get up because Urahara kept me down.

"You need to move faster." He stated.

"I was trying to! That's as fast as I can go." I spat.

He shook his head and backed off so I could get to my feet. I then strode over to where Yoso was resting and I picked her up, dusting the hilt off. He was gone again. I looked around and then something slammed into me from behind again but I managed to stay on my feet but I skidded. I barely kept my balance when I spun around. He charged again and I realized I could follow his movements better. He was coming in for an attack from the back again but I spun around and swung my blade up to block him.

When he slammed his into mine, I felt myself slide back. I grunted as I tried to hold him there, but I was still sliding.

"Pathetic." He shot at me.

I scowled. "Screw you." And then started pushing back.

At first nothing was happening. I gritted my teeth and started shoving harder, which allowed me to start moving forward. I was able to push him back a little but then he suddenly shoved at an upward angle which forced me to swing my blade up and away, and I slid backwards again.

"That was better—but not much." He smirked at me.

I scowled and charged and swung, but he blocked me easily and didn't move even when I pushed and he easily shoved me back again. I charged forward again but he was gone again and I had to spin around quickly to block him. But the minute his blade slammed into mine, my feet went out from under me and I landed on my back, ending up having to lock my muscles to prevent him from getting the flat of my blade pressed to my neck.

I didn't know how long I had to lie there and prevent him from getting my neck, but after a while he backed off and I got to my feet, my arms shaking. I glared at him and charged but he stepped out of the way, tripping me in the process. I went flying into the ground. I got back to my feet, panting and I ran at him again, slamming my blade into his but I still couldn't make him move. But when I saw him start to move again, I moved so I could get in the way and somehow I ended up in front of him.

He smirked. "There you go."

I rolled my eyes and just kept attacking until I got knocked onto my back again, breathing hard and sweating like crazy. I ended up sitting up but couldn't get back on my feet. I sat Yoso on the ground next to me and rested my head on my knees.

"You did better than I thought you would." He said.

I grunted in response. I was breathing too hard to answer.

"I'll give you until Ichigo gets back to let you rest." He said.

I managed to get up, sheathe Yoso and walked over to my bedroll and faceplanted on it.

I passed out.
