Ritsuko wore a greenish-blue gown made of soft, satiny fabric, long and loose. A semicircular, high collar made of silk-like materials headed the ankle-length robe. She walked as lightly as an acrobat, she gazed at the city once more it was a vast, intricate, labyrinth of noisy, streets and alleys.
She could hear the incessant cried of businessmen who had to get to the office, mothers who had to leave their children at their schools, facing the puzzling challenge of navigating through the crowd of parents and children; even some of the teachers who had stopped at the local bakery to get a bagel or two before their morning classes. After every person had reached their respective destination, the traffic congestions cleared significantly as if humongous snakes had eaten their fills and were retracting back into their dark and eerie caves. Walking down the street, she could smell the fresh batch of sweet and spicy rolls being baked for the lunch hour rush. To her, it was a clear sign of the city slowly waking up. She anticipated to see what the new day would bring for everyone, new tenders, business proposals, math homework, even hope.
But for now she was eager to find a certain person to train her and that was Henrex, ever since she first saw him it was obvious that he was a type of person to train someone like her. She had the charisma, attitude, and the mentality to fight for those who cannot protect themselves and for the people she cares about.
Ritsuko began sensing the area deciphering different energies until she found the correct one...
“Where are you henrex"

CALM BEFORE THE STORM
Artist: Hyuman - Song: His Theme (Japantale) - Word Count: N/A
It certainly was hectic for a day like this. Constant conversation, large amounts of people gathered for food, jobs -- all of them going for the regular, daily grind. For Henrex, this was not the case. There was never a regular routine, or anything like that. Every day presented something new. Today was presenting something that he never thought he would be able to bring himself to do -- teach others the way of the ninja. Or, simply teach in general. He had never really thought of himself as a teacher, but simply a student that wished to learn and spread his knowledge.
Henrex knew that, if he wanted to spread his knowledge, he would have to teach others what he knew. It wasn't even just that he wanted to teach them -- but because it was his duty to. The way of the ninja was dying, and soon, the old ways would be forgotten entirely. He would not let that happen. He had to pass the torch on to others. One of the very first people to show up was Ritsuko, the Russian Quincy. He was really looking forward to this. He knew that Ritsuko was eager to learn, something that mirrored his internal eagerness to teach people the old ways.
So, as he walked through the Vastime Nation's Iron Banner, he could feel the small bursts of her energy among the crowd, and he could feel the intent within her energy. She was looking for him, as well as he was looking for her. Well, that wouldn't take much longer. As Henrex squeezed his way through the crowd, heading towards the source of Ritsuko's energy signature. Coming closer and closer, and feeling her presence much more clearly with each step, Henrex was soon able to reach out and graze the arm of the Quincy with his hand.
Stepping from the crowd, and now standing behind her, Henrex smiled as he stood before the girl, before his hand lowered itself to his side, resting on the handle of his Zanpakuto.
"It's good to see you, Ritsuko. I'm truly glad that you showed up. Before we get started, however, we should probably go to the training grounds, since this is not something that we can do with such chaotic, and loud things."
As he said this, Henrex swiftly turned, before softly gesturing the girl to follow him towards the Vastimian training grounds, then walking in that direction. As the time would pass, there would be things that ran through Henrex's mind -- mostly that of how his "lesson plans" would be structured, figuring out what all interested Ritsuko in terms of the things that he had to offer her for learning...but there was something else that was on his mind. That was the question of -- why?
Why had she chosen to take this on? She had to have a reason for wanting to learn, especially the ways of the ninja. So, to bring this to light, Henrex would ask her of this. It would allow him to bring more structure to his plans, give him a further level of semblance of Ritsuko, her aspirations, as well as her own plans, along with Henrex being able to give her what she wanted.
"Why are you here, Ritsuko? Why do you want to learn from me? What do you want to learn from me? There has to be something that is causing you to come to me to learn something so very old. I'm curious."

It felt like absolute hell tracking all of these different energies was going to take forever..if only she had a good idea of what his energy gave off..as she wasn't good at sensing others if they were through a large group of people.
However she didn't have to as a gentle hand grabbed her arm turning around to see that it was Henrex in his vastime uniform.
Her eyes went down towards his hand on his zanpaktou before being greeted with a smile. It feels like yesterday that she first saw henrex during her times as a recruit.
"It's good to see you, as well Henrex. Ritsuko smiled before following henrex as she made sure not to lose him from the sea of people walking around from location to location. She had a way of walking that made her seem perpetually in a hurry. Her steps weren't long but they were rapid. Like a speed-walker without that odd twisting motion they make.
Ritsuko watched as henrex began walking not saying another word ever so silent...was he thinking about something? As time went on they continued walking this made her think she couldn't just walk to the training rounds without starting a bit of conversation..the question in her mind was -- what should I say? Many thoughts went through her head as she thought should she start the conversation with a short and simple question such as "how was your day?" or should she just remain silent and not even attempt to avoid making a fool out of herself...
Before being asked a question about her overall purpose being here, of course ritsuko wouldn't go all this way to vastime just to chit-chat and spend some quality time together...so she answered truthfully still maintaining the same pace.
"I came here becauseci want to learn the ways of the sword henrex, I've been interested in the idea because I'm pursuing my dream of becoming a substitute shinigami. Since most shinigami have swords it's only obvious to get a basic understanding on of how they work."
