Seireitei Jaunt: A Moment Of Peace

Tenjinsai nodded in affirmation of what his brother desired to do. He would have personally liked to engage a bit more, but he could sate his curiosities at a later date. This would at least give him time to tend to his personal affairs for a time. Still, an eye would need to be kept on Kirito; Though he was a guest he could not simply be allowed to run around the Soul Society at his leisure. There were too many areas that he was not allowed to go as well as the simple fact he may get lost.

He would have to assign one of his own as an escort to help him with whatever needs he may have. That could all be left for the morning though, after the man got some rest and was ready to go about his business. Tenjinsai made his way to leave the room, leaving a few words with Kirito before he did. "An admirable goal to be certain, but don't push yourself too hard. The power I have has been gained over time longer then most humans live.

Training must be thorough and challenging, but not so much that you actually end up hurting yourself. Keep that in mind." He then left the room, opening the door and moving out into the hallway of the medical bay. He paused a moment, having forgotten something before leaving and popped his head back in. "Also, I'll have someone sent in the morning to escort you wherever you may need to go within the Soul Society. You can reside and train at my family's manor while you are here.

I will be attending to official business most likely but will stop by when I can. Hopefully when I get the chance to you will be ready for our next sparring bout." Now that all that had needed to be said had been, the young shinigami left the room and shut the door behind him. He would prepare a hell butterfly request that his Third Seat Officer, Nokoreda Kyōraku, be assigned as Kirito's escort. He was capable, trustworthy, and by the books; The perfect person to be the foil to someone as, unorthodox, as his brother was.

With that now taken care of he could attend to his own business. He needed to get status updates on the repair progress and reconstitution of the squads. They had been under-strength for quite some time and he had wanted to expand the recruitment of spiritual capable individuals. This whole progress would of course take time, but a status report on the first stages would still give him an idea of the time frame he would be looking at. It would be nice to actually sit down and relax as well.

He could sit at his desk, just review some paperwork, and take a moment to breath. His presence might ease the minds of his subordinates as well. Having one's leader around them, someone they can bring their questions to, could be a reassuring commodity. 'Well, I better not keep them waiting any longer.' With that lone thought to himself, Tenjinsai disappeared with only a breeze remaining where he had been.

Kirito awoke with a startle as he had fallen asleep after his brother had left last night. It seemed like now he was rested enough and began to try and stand. Still feeling a slight weakness, He forced himself to stay standing. "I've had more than enough rest, now is the time to get training." Getting his clothes back on and placing his swords at his left hip, he began to make his way out the door. Standing there was another shinigami. Perhaps this was the one Tenjinsai sent.

He slightly bowed and looked at Kirito dead in the eye. "I am the Third Seat Officer of the First Division, Nokoreda Kyōraku. I was assigned to you to be your escort. It is a pleasure."

Kirito felt freaked out by his straight forward approach. Usually someone was always beating around the bush around him but this guy was more straight forward. He got the feeling this guy would be a pain in the ass, however he was willing to go along with it. "Very well, however you are not to interfere with my training. Even if I am to die you are to stand there and observe. You can be in charge of meal prep however." Kirito then began to walk towards the exit as he needed to find a mountain range to train. The possibly of this new sword coupled with the Sandai Kitetsu might be too dangerous to train nearby civilians. Looking back he then saw the guy just standing there still bowed which annoyed Kirito a little as he then motion to the guy. "Move your ass, you are wasting daylight."

Nokoreda just stood straight up and adjusted his glasses, slightly sighing before walking behind Kirito. "I finally understand what Captain Commander meant by 'unorthodox'. Guess I'm in for a handful with this one."
