Chapter 5: Bankai Training Part 2

In the early morning

When Momo was still asleep, in her dream she saw a huge flaming bird in front of her.

She was shocked and asked in a scared voice, "Who are you?"

The bird said, "You would find out soon enough."

Then the bird faded from her dreams.

She suddenly woke up and realised that she was dreaming.

When she turned to look at her surroundings, she realised that her whole bed was hot and certain parts were charred.

She was shocked at what happen but assumed that the night was very hot and the charred portions were due to old accidents.

She decided to shower as she was very sweaty.

After her bath, she ate breakfast and left for the secret training ground.

When she left her quarters, she was unknowingly being followed by Toshiro.

Momo felt something was amiss, she decided to conceal more of her reiatsu.

Toshiro was still following her, until Captain Soifon bumped into him from above.

Captain Soifon apologised to him for injuring him as she was practicing a new technique.

When Toshiro tried to sense for Momo's reiatsu, it could not be found.

Disappointed, he left the scene and headed back to his barracks.

Meanwhile, Momo arrived at the secret training ground without anybody following her.

Yoruichi appeared from nowhere and in a strict tone she said, "Momo, did you know that Captain Hitsugaya was following you!"

Momo was shocked and in an apologetic and sad tone she said, "I am very sorry..."

Yourichi calmed down and smiled at her.

She said to Momo that it was okay as she had anticipated it, hence she asked Soifon to follow Momo to prevent anybody from following her.

Momo, cheered up and decided to continue training.

She stabbed her zanpakuto again and Tobiume materialised again.

Tobiume greeted her politely.

Momo greeted her as well and asked her what the challenge was.

Tobiume smiled and said, "Tag."

Momo in a shock voice said, "I beg your pardon?"

Tobiume replied, "Yes Momo, I said Tag."

Momo said, "Okay so how does it work?"

Tobiume said, "I would try to run or fly within the training zone and you must Tag me with your bare hands but you can use any means necessary to slow me down."

Momo gave a smile and said, "Okay, can we start now?"

Tobiume smiled and said, "Why not?"

She started to fly up while Momo tried to use Shunpo to catch her but failed.

After various attempts trying to catch her, Momo decided that she needed to rethink her stratergy.

Momo was talking to herself at the same time Tobiume taunted her.

Momo released her zanpakuto, and use it to release a few fire balls to stop Tobiume from flying very fast.

Even after trying that a few times, she was still unable to catch her.

It was lunch time and Yoruichi brought lunch for Momo.

Tobiume dematerialised but Momo kept on moving in all directions trying something out.

After a while Momo stopped her actions and ate her lunch.

Yoruichi was eating lunch with her but at the same time she was thinking if Momo could really achieve Bankai by tomorrow.

Momo thanked Yoruichi for the lunch and waited for Tobiume to materialise again.

Tobiume smiled and said, "Momo are you sure you can catch me this time?"

Momo gave a confident reply, "I think so."

Tobiume began to fly around very fast but Momo remained calm.

Momo said, "Bakudo No.62: Hyapporankan"

All of a sudden, a blue- white glowing rod form in her arm and threw it at Tobiume .

The rod began to multiply with all of them continuing to aim at Tobiume.

Tobiume barely managed to avoid it and said, "That was a close one all else I would have been caught."

When Tobiume resumed moving, she felt a strange feeling.

Then when she tried to move further forward, she realised that she could not move anymore.

She realised that she was caught in Momo's Kido net, which was placed when she dematerialised during lunch break.

Momo smiled and said, "I suggest that you give up now!"

Tobiume said, "No, I would not give up!"

Suddenly, a huge amount of reiatsu was released from Tobiume.

Golden flaming wings started to come out of Tobiume's back.

Momo stared in awed.

Momo asked in a shocked tone, "Tobiume is that your true form?"

Tobiume said, "Nope, this isn't my true form this is my partial transformation to my true form."

Momo quickly said, "Bakudo No.4: Hainawa, Bakudo No.61: Rikujokoro"

All of a sudden a crackling yellow energy rope came out from her hand and binded Tobiume's arm.

After that 6 thin wide beams slam on to Tobiume's midsection trying to stop her from moving.

Tobiume laughed and said, "Momo, did you know that it does not work on me!"

Momo said, "I know that but I did not say that I was done!"

Tobiume looked in shock.

Momo said, "Bakudo No.63: Sajo Sabaku!"

A yellow chain appeared and binded Tobiume's upper body.

Tobiume reiatsu started to heat up causing the Kido casted to melt.

Momo decide to try one final trick.

Momo said, "Bakudo No.79: Kuyo Shibari!"

8 black holes with purple outline surrounded Tobiume and the 9th hole appeared in front of her chest.

Tobiume exclaimed, "How come I am not able to break free!"

Momo shunpo in front of her to touch her and said, "Tag, I win!"

Tobiume smiled and said, "Congratulations Momo, you have passed the second round."

Momo sighed and said, "Let me guess the final challenge would only be told to me tomorrow?"

Tobiume lauged and said, "Yes, you are correct!"

Momo heaved a louder sighed.

Yoruichi continued to be fascinated at what she was seeing and asking herself how it was possible to continuous casting powerful Kido without resting.

Momo asked Tobiume in a polite voice, "Do you by any chance know of a huge flaming bird?"

Tobiume laughed and said, "That is for me to know and for you to find out!"

Before Momo could ask any more questions, Tobiume dematerialised.

Yoruichi offered Momo to have a bath and have her dinner here.

Momo accepted her offer.

After bathing and eating her dinner, Momo left the secret training ground.

When she was approaching her quarters, she saw a sad looking Toshiro.

She asked him in a polite voice, "Hi Shiro- Chan what happen to you?"

He blushed mildly and said, "Nothing, I was doing my training then all of a sudden I collided with Soifon and sustain a few minor injuries."

Momo replied, "Oh, is there anything else you want to say?"

He blushed harder and said, "Nothing really, just wanted to say goodnight to you Momo."

Momo said, "Oh, then goodnight to you Shiro- Chan!"

After saying goodbye she left for her room.

When Toshiro was about to leave Yoruichi appeared.

Toshiro said, "Yes, how may I help you?"

Yoruichi laughed and said, "You should just tell her the truth!"

Toshiro said in an annoyed voice, "Just shut up about it, by the way what kind of secret mission was she in with you until you had to ask Soifon to stop me from following her."

Yoruichi said, "I can't tell you."

Toshiro felt angry and left.
