Akua made it to the place where Damian and the others were resting at the moment, Damian would be outside noticing her coming he would head over to greet her while the Snow women were elsewhere, she even brought the Oculus that was still in the case, holding it under her shoulder while she walks over to Damian to greet him back with a gentle kiss then walks inside to place the sword on the table then goes to see how Moka and Gabriel are going as they are still asleep in the bedroom.

Moka fell asleep while she was lying next to Gabriel in the cover, Gabriel roll to the side in front of her moving his arm around her while he was still asleep, when Akua and Damian walks in seeing the two together Akua smiles at them and wouldn't say anything to them.

"How cute they are." She leans against the side of the door looking at them

"She fell asleep in there since some girl wanted to take a shot with him but now she is keeping an eye on him."

"Well i always knew Moka would get soft one way or the other."

Damian looks back to Akua "Well since there still asleep i think you owe me a date."

"Sure." She turns back and walks out of there while Damian closes the door and follows her outside heading out elsewhere.

Gabriel would be the first to wake up slowly opening his eyes and seeing a blur a bit but once his sight was cleared he would see Moka lying in front of him facing his way, his eyes wide for the moment and moving his head back away from her noticing he had his arm around her. Moka would also slowly wake up opening her eyes seeing Gabriel looking at her, her eyes wide for a second and blushes a bit before pushing Gabriel away from her and moving back by getting up off the bed.

Gabriel also stands up looking over to her "Did you have to do that?"

She sighs looking away "I... forget it." She walks out of there but Gabriel would grab her arm.

"Moka..."

"What-" she turns back and suddenly Gabriel would kiss her in the room, she froze for the moment then she would kiss him back by wrapping her arms around his neck. Soon she would stop and leans her forehead against him "Sorry..."

"It's ok... i am ready for the next training Moka."

Both of them would head out of the room but they fix themselves up before going, seeing Shira nearby with two other snow women she would look back and remains silent to them. Gabriel would look to the side seeing the display case of his sword still inside of it, he would walk over towards it while Moka was speaking to Shira for the moment. Gabriel slowly moves his hand over the case seeing it glow for the moment then stops, he looks back to Moka as she and Shira walks forward towards him, Moka would nod to him and he looks back down to the case and slowly opens it up there the sword would glow brighter but finally once Gabriel place his hand over the handle it would stop and he draws it out of the case taking a step back looking at the blade then back to Moka slightly smiling at her as he was ready for this.

Gabriel and Moka head off away from the place wondering where Akua and Damian went as they were nowhere to be seen but they will come back in due time so it's perfect for a training alone together. They stand on the edge of the cliff in the blizzard Gabriel stands by the cliff holding his sword with two hands in front of him looking over to Moka as she stands their hands on hips looking at him.

"An Espada is a deadly weapon in this world, the weapon cannot be broken or blunt or anything, they possess strange power and only you can unlock them."

"Doesn't your dad use this sword; why not tell me about the techniques he uses."

"Yes but i notice that usually when a king uses this sword the power of that sword is changed right now you can decide what power it holds as you are now the wielder of that sword for now."

"So if i die this sword will find another user."

"Yes."

"Then i better not die. I am ready for this Moka so do whatever you can to make me stronger."

"Then you better be ready to fight." She looks to the side and Mizore would be walking over next to Moka

"Mizore... what are you doing here?"

"She will be your opponent, go fight her."

"I am going to enjoy this time together Gabriel." She said and her hair started to get longer and turn to ice along with her hands also becoming ice claws.

"Uhh okay then..." he stands ready

Mizore would then start to send a strong blizzard towards him causing him to move backwards close to the cliff, once he looks back to the edge she would run over towards him to start clawing his face in but he moves his sword forward to block her attacks but slowly moves back a bit getting closer against the edge but he would try to strike back still holding the sword with two hands swinging forward making Mizore to back off and soon it causes Gabriel to cut some of her claws causing her to moan in pain for the moment.

Gabriel lowers his sword holding it with two hands "Woah are you ok?"

She smiles for the moment as her claws regenerates quickly, sending another blizzard back at him and causing him to go moving back and soon go falling off the cliff, causing Moka to walk over towards the edge with Mizore looking down to see if he is still alive. When they made it to the side of the cliff they notice he was dangling there with his sword stuck against the side of the cliff holding it with two hands looking up at the two.

"You shouldn't let your guard down Gabriel... snow women can just repair their claws out here..." Moka said then turns back "When you get back up here we can begin again."

"Seriously!" He tries to climb up but couldn't

She sighs and looks back "We already started and he is already defeated."

"Then maybe i should get into this fight." Damian said walking behind Moka while Akua would be with him but stops behind her as Damian keeps walking towards the cliff

He looks down at Gabriel still stuck there "Hey Gabriel!" he yelled out to him "Why don't you use your claws?"

"Claws..."

"Yeah i am sure you got that, hurry up and release your vampiric powers before Moka has to save your life again!" he turns back and walks back to Moka "Give him a minute."

Damian looks forward waiting for him to come, crossing his arms waiting and looks at Mizore walking over towards the group all looking to the side of the cliff. One minute later he would finally get up there, slowly climbing up there reaching to the top slowly getting up off the ground holding his sword trying to catch his breath then looks back up to the group, he smiles and stands up ready and started walking towards them holding his sword tight.

"Oh he wants a fight." Damian said walking over towards him

Once both of them reach to one another Damian was about to punch him while Gabriel swings his sword but Damian grabs his hand and then punch his chest then was about to do it again but Gabriel blocks his punch with his other hand and kicks forward breaking free from his grip with his hand that was holding his sword and swings forward to cut his chest but Damian raise his arm to let that take the cut as he moved back. Gabriel keeps swinging forward while Damian keeps blocking his attacks but once he found an opening he ducks and runs forward to tackle Gabriel but all he did was moved back from his pushed then would knee his chest and face twice and throws him to the side and uses his sword to cut his neck when he threw him, once he hits the ground he looks back over to Gabriel quickly and smiles at him, both of them would walk around circling around together not making a move on one another, Moka, Akua and Mizore would just watch and notices the sword started to glow for the moment as Gabriel was soon to do something that will awaken his powers and that sword.

Damian charges towards him and Gabriel would move his sword behind him and once he got closer he swings it back forward sending this red and black wave from the swing he raise in the air, causing the strike to be critical than before, striking his arm and his chest and sending him flying back and crashes to the ground, with that Akua would run over towards Damian who is still alive while Gabriel stands there victorious for now.

Akua would bite her arm and gives her blood to Damian to drink while Moka walks over towards him "You done well but it isn't enough."

"I know..."

"That's why you have to keep fighting... and to also fix your hair." She notices that a bit of his hair was white while the rest is still the same.

"My hair?" he presses his hair down noticing some of it is white "What the..."

"Once your hair becomes white like mine then you will be full complete, you still got a lot to go Gabriel." She turns back and walks back to the house and so do the others.

Moka looks back while Gabriel turns back "You coming back?"

Gabriel looks back "Not yet... i still got a few things to learn from this sword."

"Hmn..." she turns back and keeps walking with the others while Gabriel walks forward close to the edge of the cliff, he looks at his sword for the moment then looks back out to the frozen fields

The others inside would be in a feast with the snow women just to finally get out of the cold but inside it felt like this whole place has the same temperature as outside, they all knee down by this small table with the others, got a lot of food on the table and was ready to dig in but Moka would hesitate for the moment thinking about Gabriel for the moment but Akua would bump her arm slightly making her to wake up.

"If you want to watch Gabriel then just go out there and keep an eye on him."

"He is fine."

"He would be if you are by his side, you can't let him fight against Victor alone or he will die."

"I am well aware of that, he just needs-"

"Training? I don't think Victor will wait a few months for him to be complete, he will come again and this time he might go after you just to make Gabriel go after him, he will die."

She sighs and stands up "I will be going to bed..." she was about to walk out of there

Damian looks back "Which bed would that be?"

She stops for the moment but she keeps going, Akua looks back to Damian and he looks away and continues eating. Back to Gabriel he would practice swinging his sword and moving backwards to do some moves with the sword just to use against Victor if he can, once he stops he started to picture that time when Victor got there and almost beat him dead, he looks serious and continues going swinging his sword for a little while longer, ignoring everything around him but it wouldn't be long before something weird happens.

"You're not good enough Gabriel." A voice that echoed through his mind

Gabriel looks back and around seeing nothing "Who's there?"

"Close your eyes and open your mind."

He lowers the sword and looks around again, walking forward to the edge and sits down crossing his legs together by the side, placing his sword by his lap before closing his eyes. Gabriel would try to remove anything that he hears, taking a deep breath to calm down and relax, trying to open his mind to see what he should see but would take a while because he couldn't just get everything done in a matter of minutes.

Took a while longer than he thought but finally he was able to see through his mind and his sword that lies there glows bright in red. Gabriel finally opens his eyes and he could only see black but was still able to see himself seeing only an endless void, he stands up and walks forward and notices that his sword was gone, he looks around and once he looks back there was someone else before him, sitting on the ground facing the other way.

"Who are you?" His voice echoed through the void

The man with the red long hair and red and black coat looks to the side then slowly stands up, he was taller than Gabriel, and he had two belts on that held the Oculus in a sheath along with darker red pants. His eyes were pure red of blood and had this strange symbol on his chest; he could only see the top while the bottom part was covered by his shirt.

"Who are you?"

"Is that a trick question?" he too echoed through the void but his voice was darker than Gabriel's "You know who i am."

Gabriel looks down seeing the handle of the Oculus, knowing it was his "That sword belongs to me... hand it over."

"Are you sure that sword belongs to you?"

"The sword is the Oculus, it has chosen me to be the –"

"I don't think so." He slowly draws the sword "The sword does belong to the wielder who is next in line... but what of the original?" He looks at the sword then back to Gabriel

"Wait... you're the original?"

"You can call me... Bloodborne."

"You're the original."

"Yes you already said that. I was the first to wield the Oculus." He walks forward "My father gave me one of the ten weapons, my power and my life is now bond to the Oculus and the only people who are ready to use my sword must become better than i could have done."

"So what does that mean... do i have to fight you right here and now?"

"That is right." He walks forward again "You beat me then i will teach you the powers this sword possess, the others before you have defeated me so let's see if you can beat me." He throws his sword in front of Gabriel stabbing the ground while he holds his hand in the air and suddenly he creates another Oculus in his hand, forming itself in blood until it is complete. He holds it tight and lowers his sword and stands ready waiting for Gabriel.

"This will be difficult." Gabriel said in his mind "Going up against the man who has already mastered the sword, fighting him with this..." he looks down at his sword "It won't go well..."

"You are right Gabriel; you won't be able to defeat me with that sword." He said out loud to him knowing he can hear his thoughts "But if you did manage to master the sword i would be able counter attack all your moves since i am part of that sword and you, but now you just got the sword." He walks closer "That means i do not know your techniques yet so right now this is perfect for our skirmish."

Gabriel took a step back but he would act serious and charges towards him, leaping in the air to swing down at him while he does the same thing, both clash against one another with their swords both landing to the ground still have their swords together but soon both would back off and swings at one another but soon Bloodborne would strike a hit to his chest making Gabriel move back and causing his actual body back to the real world to sustain the same damage he just inflicted.

Gabriel charges again and swings down at him but he moves to the side quickly and swings to the side cutting Gabriel's hand, Gabriel looks at him and swings to the side hitting his sword as he tries to back off but then he runs up to him again and continues swinging the Oculus at him repeatedly with one hand to it seeing he is able to block all of his attacks but when Bloodborne would try to hit his sword away and tries to do a stab to his face, he would be able to see it in time and moves his head out of the way, he grabs the handle of his sword then swings forward but Bloodborne would kick the bottom of his sword causing Gabriel to let go of his weapon and causes Bloodborne to strike at his hand causing him to back off away from him, looking at his bloodied hand for the moment but once he looks back to him he saw his sword aiming so close to his neck he was so close from killing him right here but he moves to the side but he did sustain a cut to the neck and Bloodborne would be moving forward away from Gabriel for the moment then looks back to him standing ready.

"You cannot defeat me in this way Gabriel... get focus and attack!" he runs towards him

Gabriel moves backwards to start blocking his attacks, after a while of moving back and blocking he started to get a few cuts on his body, two cuts on his left shoulder three cuts to the chest and another one to his left leg as he couldn't block all the attacks. He would jump back away from him and he started to try to catch his breath still holding his sword and stands ready to fight again.

"This is over..." he shakes his head "You are not good enough, i guess Moka will see you die and she will just forget about you." He lets a deep sighs "I am going to finish this, one final attack." He stands ready

He closes his eyes for the moment "I am sorry Moka if i failed you." He stands ready and does the same stance Bloodborne does then both of them would charge at the same time.

Once both of them reach close to one another in slow motion both of them held their swords with one hand to their swords both about to try to stab one another and during that close of the stab Bloodborne knows he can stab him before he can get him, he did started to see Gabriel's sword started to glow red as blood noticing that all the cuts Gabriel sustain the blood on his body started to move towards his hand and the handle of his sword, making his sword stronger than before and also cause Gabriel to slowly get halfway his hair to turn to white while knowing that he is unlocking another vampiric power and that is the will to fly.

Before Bloodborne was just about to hit his neck he notices that wings started to come out of Gabriel's back and causes him to fly above him, he misses his hit and their final attack but Gabriel flew above him his back facing Bloodborne above as he looks up at him. Gabriel turns back and tries to swing down at him while he tries to turn back to swing back at him but this time Gabriel has enough time to strike him before Bloodborne can hit him and with that sword getting stronger he can end this in one shot.

"He's got me... Damn..." He said in his mind seeing Gabriel's sword getting closer to his arm and chest.

"I WIN!" He swings down and the moment he hits him a gust of red light blast throughout the area covering both of them and the entire black void, it even caused Gabriel to get out of his mind and return to the real world, opening his eyes seeing the view of the cliff he was before.

"I did it..." he quickly jumps up and grabs his sword "I did it..." he turns back "Moka!"
