Vayle walked into the forest with a deep sigh. It was the first time she'd really had to be in such a wild place in the living world - hollows generally stayed near people, not in such uninhabited places - but with the kind of power Estrella had.... Actually, come to think of it... "how come we're doing this here? Shouldn't you have some kinda mobile weapons bunker or something?" Vayle would ask, looking back to her companion. "also, I think we already said it, but remember: you are actually capable of committing ghost-murder, so please don't do that to me. I will also make sure I don't regular-murder you in the process of weapons testing." Vayle would sigh. "...Lastly!... If anyone asks I tried to bring you in for crimes against the soul society and failed. Like just completely bungled up the job." And then the death god would grin. "...That said, I'm glad to be able to do a rematch under friendlier circumstances. I managed to develop my skills a bit, so we'll see if I can really keep up with your evolving hardware." Vayle would add with a happier grin. she was always happy to test her skills, especially in a friendlier environment, after all. And hey... She was interested if Estrella could make her lose round two. BATTLE TRACKERSUMMARY

In a surprising turn of events, managing to convince Vayle to join Estrella today for some combat practice and weapons testing was easier than the woman had initially anticipated. The Shinigami seemed oddly enthusiastic to be here, stating that she was enthused to have a rematch under friendlier circumstances, while at the same time warning he to not go overboard and commit to anything lethal. And asking on why they were doing it here, in a forest, rather than in a some sort of weapons testing bunker.
That question was easy. "A secret bunker is too... safe of an environment, you know? In a real battle, you're never gonna end up in a situation where you get to fight in an empty, quiet, barren reinforced room with no hurdles, obstacles or anything. This just makes the test be more meaningful. As for the non-lethal stuff... well, take this."
Estrella tossed a custom designed bracelet towards Vayle, while putting on the same one on her own wrist, replacing her holo-pad projector. As soon as she turned the bracelet on, it displayed a hologram of a green health bar above the Marquise's head, percentages written in the center of the bar.
"Since we're going non-lethal here, this will be our stand-in for real combat damage," Estrella spoke while replacing the cartridges in both of her Rose pistols with rubber bullet ones. "It's a device which can calculate the Newton-force of blows hitting your body, and, coupled with data on which part of your body they're hitting, calculate how much damage you would suffer if this were a real firefight instead of just a spar. I've tweaked yours to account for you being a Shinigami and all, but it should otherwise be fairly accurate. The first person to get the other's health bar to zero percent wins, while the other would likely be dead. Did you get all that? Then let's go."
Suddenly, Estrella aimed both of her pistols - not towards Vayle, but towards the sky and the leaf foliage, unloading fire from both of her weapons. Only for all the bullets to suddenly turn around in mid-air and fly straight towards the Shinigami.

Vayle tried and failed to keep up with Estrella as she ran a mile a minute, explaining the nuances of her Test. holo-pad projectors, Newtum-force, and..." She just decide to smile and nod, going through the steps that Estrella told her to do. She was pretty good at following instructions, even if she didn't totally grasp the concepts involved. If this were a kido discussion, she had a feeling it wouldn't be a problem keeping up, but this... clearly wasn't her field. She didn't have time to think about that, though, as Estrella's new bullets homed in on her location. "Oh lord, nope!" Vayle Hopped from tree to tree as the bullets kept following her, but luckily, after spending so much time playing "catch the blade" With Revenant in their recent duels, the reflexes to do so just came naturally as she dodged from branch to branch, keeping mobile. Eventually, though, the bullets homed in on her position, and the shinigami had no choic. Popping up just in front of Estrella with a cheeky grin and wave, she disappeared just as the bullets would hit, popping up behind the skilled fighter. as she did so, she muttered a small chant. "Oh lord, mask of flesh and bone, all creation, flutter of wings, you who bears the name of man, Inferno and Pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south!" As Vayle faced the bullets, a brilliant blue flame erupted from her hands. "Hado number 33! Blue fire, Crash down!" The wave obliterated the majority of the bullets, though a few got around Vayle's shots and she watched as her green bar lowered. Looked like she wasn't avoiding damage entirely this fight. "Alright then. Dazzle... Mahoutsukai!" A shell of rainbow light would briefly dim around Vayle, before unveiling to show her holding her familiar weaponry. "Magic sign: Milky way!" And with that proclamation, Vayle unleashed a hail of cartoonish, multi-coloured stars in a deluge headed Estrella's way. The shinigami grinned as she evaluated Estrella's newest equipment. She couldn't deny that it was quite the upgrade. [212 words] BATTLE TRACKERSUMMARY

Despite having only been faced with the technique for the first time, Vayle dealt with Estrella's homing bullets fairly well - putting her Shinigami reflexes to the test by avoiding the rain of gunfire until she finally appeared behind Estrella to draw most of the bullets straight towards their owner. Most managed to turn around in time and head towards Vayle, where they got destroyed by a shower of blue flame, but quite a few smacked their creator's torso and arms. The health bars did not discriminate for getting hit by one's own attacks, so Estrella saw her own slowly decrease - not as much as Vayle's, but noticeable regardless.
Faced with her opponent sending a shower of multi-colored magic stars her way, Estrella suddenly switched weapon modes with the flick of a hologram and unloaded a cartridge of bullets to the air. Right before the stars were about to strike her, the Marquise suddenly leapt up, landing on her own bullets, which formed a dense and compact cloud moving at supersonic speeds, easily navigating around all of the incoming attacks before heading straight towards Vayle. Estrella snickered and leapt up, landing on the grass behind the Shinigami while the cloud of bullets kept on moving to try to pelter Vayle with rubber gunfire.

Vayle grunted as the next string of bullets rocketed straight for her. "oh boy oh boy oh boy!" Vayle grunted, realizing that, regardless of the battle experience she had... Estrella had never stopped being a formidable force just because of it. The death god jumped through the forest, jumping from branch to branch, until she felt her sandals slipped on something... "oh god oh god oh god!" A springy branch lead to a spectacular slip that sent vayle... back directly through the bullets. On the bright side, Vayle was certain that this bold approach probably saved her from a lot of the damage by ploughing straight through the bullets. On the other hand... "Ow! God! Damnit! These freakin' hurt! I thought they were rubber!" The shinigami whined as she was sent through the storm> The woman whined, sitting on a nearby branch for a second, for a little while, before holding up her broom. "well, if it's like that..." The shinigami muttered, before looking back to estrella with a grin. "If they're homing bullets anyways, I ain't gotta worry about distance in this little match, do I?" In a matter of an instant, the broom connected the back of the reactor to it's bristle, as Vayle's reishi overflowed with rainbow energy. "Comet sign: Blazing star" And with that, a rainbow-shaped cannonball rocketed straight for Estrella. "Comin' for ya!" BATTLE TRACKERSUMMARY

"That's the point of rubber bullets, Vayle! You're only hurt!" Estrella exclaimed in response to Vayle's complaint about the pain of her bullet barrages. It's easy to complain when you can't feel the effects of the lethal alternative to those bullets, i.e. getting ripped apart by bullets accelerated to supersonic speeds. Vayle did get one thing, however - distance is secondary in this match, indeed. Immediately after, a powerful cannonball fired straight towards Estrella.
Now, for part two of my master plan...
Estrella suddenly sheathed both of her Rose pistols, leaving them inside their trays in the Ghostbuster Suit's thigh plating, and instead activated her Warp module. She had already used it against Vayle before, in their previous match - in the blink of an eye, Estrella vanished from existence, reappearing right in front of the Shinigami. The Ghostbuster Suit instantly activated her secondary melee weapon - a blue force field in the shape of a sharp blade suddenly shot out from Estrella's right wrist.
Normally, her force blade would be able to cut through stone, steel and flesh like a hot knife through butter, but for today, the woman had purposefully dialed down the power of the weapon. So if it were to hit, it should only violently eject Vayle and hopefully grant Estrella a victory in the match.

"But Rubber's supposed to be soft and stuff! I thought it was gonna be like getting hit with a rubber band or something!" Vayle continued to whine, seemingly oblivious to the fact she'd weathered lead slugs only a few weeks earlier. "It's giving me flash-backs to when I got into a drinking party with the division and They got out the glue-" any of Vayle's earlier comments were smashed out of her face by surprise when she realized that she hadn't hit her target. An illusion of some sort? no, she'd definitely been solid and talking and firing bullets... teleportation. "...Do you actually have teleportation gear on that thing? I thought that was more of a science fiction thing. How do you do the whole matter exchange without some form of Demon magic to stabilize the whole process?" Vayle Asked. "Second question: Is that a laser sword? Because I-" The Question was left unfinished as Estrella struck, smacking vayle hard on the head. The death god gave a surprised yelp as she was... Not there, suddenly, with a couple scraps of black cloth being all that had actually been struck. "Flash step: Molted Cicada." Vayle would say with a grin, standing behind Estrella. "only got fast enough to leave proper after-images like that a couple days ago!" A glowing array of multi-colored lights would flash directly in the sky above estrella, before crashing down with explosive force in a flurry of beams. "Light Blast: Shoot the moon!"

Huzzah! The first ever combat use of her Force Blade turned out to be a success! It didn't suddenly detonate, it didn't fail to activate and leave Estrella standing there with her hand outstretched like a complete idiot - no, it activated, it struck Vayle in the head and it sent her flailing back. The Marquise grinned under her head. Summoning force field weaponry was energy consuming, but a potentially viable method of melee combat. Something she definitely needs to start looking into if she's going to be fighting these claw and sword slashing ghosts on and on.
Vayle promptly pulled the exact same thing on Estrella as she had did to her - vanishing and reappearing behind her to suddenly release a powerful shower of magical attacks. There was no escape from such a sudden blow at this point - Estrella could only cross her arms and take the blunt of the barrage, explosions showering the place where she had been standing and the holographic health bar above her head rapidly draining.
But right before it could have drained completely and declared a victory for Vayle, the barrage stopped. Through the smoke, the barrel of a pistol poked out towards the Shinigami and a voice called out:
"To answer your questions - yes; I don't know what demon magic is; and kind of."
Right before a yet another shower of rubber bullets opened fire towards Vayle. Seeing as both of the women were at the edge of their health bars, it was likely now or never.

"It's the things I've been throwing at you! You know, the one with all the blue fire? Don't tell me you don't remember that one, I was feeling super proud of how big I Managed to make it!" Vayle continued to whine, sighing with a slightly disappointed look on her face. "Man... I spent all this time working on that kido and-"
It was at this moment that Vayle realized two important things.
Firstly, getting distracted on the job was a serious hazard to her health.
Secondly, the Rubber bullets did not hurt less with experience. In fact, they may have even hurt worse due to striking her while she was inattentive.
The soul reaper was sent ass over teakettle into the nearest tree and fell down with a bruise already forming on her head. "Geez..." She muttered, as her health bar went the rest of the way down. "I can't help but feel like Rubber's not supposed to hit that hard. I thought it was all bouncy and stuff. Are you sure you didn't, like, hide rocks in them, or something?"
Vayle would dust off her robes with a slight grin. "At any rate... I think it's your win this time, after all. Looks like you've got your tech all figured out. At least enough to beat a low ranked death god."
The death god would chuckle as the holographic device beeped rapidly.
"...If you can keep improving at this rate. I think you'll be alright. As for me..."
Vayle tried to will her strained body to move. "...I've suddenly decided this is a great spot to watch the birds and stuff. Nothing to do with sore legs, mind you, just a sudden interest in enjoying nature. Gimme about 5 minutes. I think by then I'll have properly... enjoyed the wildlife."
That wasn't too transparent a lie, right?

And... it was over. On the last sliver of health, Estrella managed to catch Vayle off-guard and battered her with a barrage of bullets, sending her straight to a tree before falling back to the mossy ground. The Marquise lowered her handgun and let loose an easier breath, then turned off the holographic health bar above her head. The weapons test was successful, and though Estrella might have preferred a Vayle victory here just to see where her tools have faults and how they can be improved, she's learned plenty of insight in what she is doing well and what she is doing not so well already.
"Oh, rubber definitely hits that hard if you fire it from a coilgun at near supersonic speeds. But you took 'em like a champ, so pat yourself on the back there. They're still lethal to a normal human person, after all," Estrella explained while folding her handguns and shoving them back into their holsters, then turning to see Vayle stating that she wants to watch the birds. For five minutes. From the ground. And professing that this has nothing to do with her sore legs.
Yeah, Estrella didn't buy that.
"You sure you don't want to have that bruise on your head checked out first?" the Marquise muttered, stopping next to Vayle. It looked pretty nasty from up here - Estrella stretched out her hand on instinct, but suppressed herself from touching that wound.
