Kusa vs. Bael
Kusa pushed himself up from the ground and worked the chink out of his arm, breathing a sigh of relief. He then glanced over at Bael and smirked. "Oh, please... That could not have been any worse than what you did to me in that hallway at school.", he said. Ah, fighting with words now.

The slide kick almost caught Kusa off-guard. He barely managed to bend his knees and jump into the air before Bael's foot nicked his ankle. The jump wasn't high enough for a good escape and Kusa landed hard on the ground, on the same shoulder that had been injured before. He gasped sharply, wincing in pain. "Dang it..."

As if hitting his shoulder again didn't shake him up enough, Kusa suddenly found himself up in the air. He wasn't going to have a nice landing however. Bael was poised to knock him up again with his foot. Seconds before Kusa came within kicking reach, he threw a nicely angled punch at the side of Bael's head. "I'm not a toy, you know!", he shouted.

Bael barely felt the punch, but it was enough to knock him off balance and miss with his kick. He hopped backwards, watching Kusa fall to the ground. He cricked his neck. "C'mon, get up."
Look at this signature. Isn't it the funniest and most hilarious signature you've ever seen?

Kusa hit the ground, which might have been even more jarring than being kicked up into the air again. It knocked the breath out of his lungs and left him gasping for a few moments. The boy should have felt lucky since he hadn't broken any bones yet. Once he was able to breath properly again, he pushed himself to his feet. As Bael popped his neck, Kusa cringed. "Oh, shut up, ya jerk...", he retorted.

Kusa subconsciously placed a hand over his injured shoulder as Bael began popping more bones and joints in random places on his body. Each cracky noise made him wince. "I haven't broken any bones... but my shoulder might be fractured... and that fall didn't help anything, I'm sure... Now, he's just tormenting me with those painful noises... Bastard...", those were Kusa's inner thoughts. "All right, all right! Enough with loosening yourself up!", he shouted.

There was no use in trying to lie since his facial expressions had already relayed the truth. "Yes. But this still isn't as bad as having your spit on me...", Kusa said, shuddering. He then released his wounded shoulder and ran at the other shinigami, restarting their fight with a punch.

Kusa managed to shift his head just enough so that Bael's fist struck his forehead, instead of something that might have been more painful like his eyes or nose. His vision exploded in a searing white light as he felt his body hit the ground once again. He passed out and woke up minutes later, still laying in the grass. Any attempt at moving sent a jolt of pain through his body so he opted to just lay motionless.
