The Budding Of Potential

The Vanguard Leader couldn't ask for a better day to occur than today. It was late summer here in Karakura City, Sukai Karakura looking rather barren as the soft rays of the dawn sun flooded its streets. A soft orange light shined quietly through the light fog of the early morning. Azure Iramasha stood alone, Megumi Plaza entertaining his time as he continued to wait for what seemed an eternity now. The orange rays of the sun were back and forth due to the overcast clouds, the drizzling rain that came from the clouds only making the 'scene' seem more important. In reality, the rain was what kept Azure here in Megumi Plaza. He kept his distance from a majority of people now, his interests lying in something far greater than anyone could imagine. The day was perfect, at least... perfect enough to keep the idiot male in place.

Bright blue eyes shifted from the fountain of the plaza to the bench beside him. The Vanguard Leader was currently in the process of waiting for a new member of their ranks. A Yuudeshi known as Chifuyu had made their way into the Vanguard's positions somehow, someway. It didn't take long before the leader took an interest in her. She was odd, something that was a quality a majority of Vanguard operatives held. It wasn't anything serious or major, but this oddity was the key to Azure's interaction with the girl. He wasn't getting old, but in his past it was made clear that if things continued the way they were, he'd be dead before he could reach his father's own age. It was a sad reality that the young Iramasha would have to come to terms with eventually, so why not now eh?

That being the case, Azure Iramasha flopped his way onto the bench beside him and groaned. The day was drowning on as he waited. All he wanted to do was get his training of the young girl out of the way, something that wasn't necessarily a chore but... it wasn't like many people could catch the Vanguard Leader's attention anymore as it was. So hell, wasn't it fine that he was getting annoyed? He was spending his own time and effort to help another person, not himself. Shaking his head in response to the rapid thoughts filling his head, Azure opened his eyes and watched the sky. The small drops of rain smacked against his pale complexion, continually soaking his clothing as he simply watched.

The sky cried a lot in recent days. There wasn't a god that pushed destiny for people, obviously such a thing didn't exist. The Soul King was an idiot that did nothing and the other god-like figures only caused issues. If that was the case, why did the Karakura Sky wish to cry so often? Aren't things going alright? The world will be fine eventually.

"Give me a reason to cry, don't just do it..." Sighing, he turned towards the road that followed the side of the fountain plaza and housing row on the opposite side. It was such a sad world, things would never be the same as they were before from the looks of it.

Sure is a shame.
