Daichi blinks at this, and nods, whistling. "Nice one!" He calls to his ally, then, back still facing her, he holds his hands before him. "Take flight, Hakimi!" He cries, and as his arms part again, in one hand is a large Katana. The grip is red winding on black shark-skin. The guard is formed from two large up-swept wings. From the endcap trail two long  red cords, each of which ends in a tuft of bright orange down, the color of flame. Each piece of metal on the sword seems to be made from the same shimmering material, just slightly darker than steel. As the blade appears, a wave of spiritual pressure surges out from him, and it would take one with near-dead senses to miss the strength of his spirit, as it displays in glittering majesty.<br/><br/>Next he raises her to the sky with his right hand, and draws her down with his right, his left hand passing over one side of the blade. "Hakimi, burn!" And as his hand passes, the sword blossoms into burning flame along the blade, which then spreads along it's length, and soon surrounds it from down tassels to sword-tip, but does not seem to harm Daichi. As he places both hands on the blade, he takes a single step forwards, towards the beast before him.<br/><br/>OOC: Move action to activate Shikai. Move action to activate flame-blade. 5 foot step.
