Wondering Student...(Open)

Talbot had only been in the Shinigami Academy for a few days before finally getting some time to himself. It's not that he didn't enjoy the studies, the training, and all that stuff, no it was that Talbot missed the free time he always had the past 10 years. The young man missed being able to do whatever, whenever, and always lazing around, but now he had to show his more serious side more often. It was because of this that Talbot had decided to go wonder about Rukongai, today he had even brought a bag of red apples with him just in-case he got lazy and decided to nap somewhere.

By now Talbot had been wondering the majority of the day, not really speaking to anyone nor paying attention to where he walked. Thats how he ended up in the wooded clearing he was now in, looking around Talbot noticed a small pond in the center of the clearing, right next to a beautiful Cherry Blossom Tree. With a light smile on his face Talbot removed an apple from his bag and took a bite as he walked to the tree and sat down, leaning against it as he rested his black zanpakuto beside him. The red haired man had no idea if anything would happen while he was there, no, he was just glade he had the chance to relax. If anything were to happen at least he would have his sealed zanpakuto with him.

Ezrachek had recently returned from a very successful mission with Captain Kuro and was granted some free time to relax. Ezrachek had decided to travel to the outer banks of a Rukongai district and slay some weakling hollows that infested the area. It filled Ezrachek with joy, feeling the full capabilities of his fighting prowess once more, now that he wasnt fighting against shinigami with shikai. He looked at his own Zanpakuto, curiously wondering when it would reveal its name to him, or when he would achieve its shikai. These thoughts ran throughout his mind and he finished cleaning the streets of hollows and wandered towards a clearing in the woods. It was early in the morning and he could feel no reiatsu around these woods, so he decided to chill for a while. He ran up a tall tree and sat on a think branch, crossing his ankles over one another. He laid his head back on the trunk of the tree and grabbed a cigarette from his bag. He began smoking it and blowing puffs of smoke into clouds. A few moments later, he finished the cigarette and disposed of it via Hado 4, White lightning. The butt disintegrated into the air as Ezrachek rested his eyes, dozing off into a slumber.

He awoke at what felt like an hour later when a random burst of wind almost knocked him from the branch. He steadied himself and laid his head back down on the trunk when he felt some new reiatsu that he hadn't felt before. He quickly suppressed his, making him virtually invisible as he backed into a dark shade that was casted on the other side of the tree. He saw the academy student walk up and take his place below the tree and begin to munch on a red apple. Ezrachek decided to have some fun with this student, and wrapped his legs around the tree branch. He swooped down, hanging upside down above the students head as he flared his reiatsu, making himself noticeable. "Don't believe we have met before!" Ezrachek said with a laugh, hoping to have startled the young student.

As Talbot continued to eat the shiny red apple in his hands he suddenly felt another presence, which shocked him for a moment. It wasn't the new persons voice that shocked him, nor the person himself now dangling upside down from the tree, no instead it was the sudden feel of the mans reiatsu that shocked Talbot. What the... when did he get here.. Talbot thought to himself, just moments ago he had been relaxing, and sure that he was the only one in the clearing. The man now hanging above him had spoken up moments before, exclaiming that he had yet to meet Talbot. As the man spoke Talbot stood and turned so that he was now facing the new person. Right away Talbot noticed that the man was stronger than himself, although not by a large margin, the next thing Talbot would notice is the mans long black hair hanging closer to the ground.

With a small chuckle Talbot withdrew another shiny red apple from his bag and took a bite into it before speaking up. "Your right, I don't believe we have met before. I'm actually pretty new around here, the names Talbot Cahal, but you can just call me Talbot. And you would be....? Talbot let the question linger in the air as he moved a few steps from the Cherry Blossom and took a seat in the grass, facing the new arrival. Talbot wondered who the man was, and wondered if he was an Academy student such as himself, or someone actually belonging to a squad. Brushing the thoughts off with a chuckle Talbot awaited the man's reply.
