Cherry Blossom Park

Lee took in a deep breath as he let the breath escape his lips as he then let his mouth open as he was about to speak but stopped as the words ran from him. He turned toward her and didn't know if he should say he was sorry or if he should keep his mouth shut. The words followed
"I'm sorry if that got a little personal."

Dawn shook her head.

"Don't apologize, it was personal for me too." Dawn said softly admitting it.

Lee slowly moved his right hand down to his chin as he listened to her and then thought about what she said and then thought about maybe looking for something else like he did before be decided against it as he spoke
"So, what are you going to do after this?"

"I don't know...this is basically a break for me. It's peaceful here, It's hard to find really peaceful places." Dawn said with a smile

Lee slowly moved his arms over his chest for just a moment before it felt uncomfortable and he moved his hands behind his back and held his hands together and then spoke
"That is nice, it is very nice."
He glanced off to the side for a slight moment

Dawn sat in the grass and looked out to the water. Everything was starting to get tense and Dawn wasn't use to this kind of stuff. She was probably a few centimeters away from Lee's face, and she was surprised she didn't do anything rash to Lee for being so close.

Lee took in another deep breath, which at this point was starting to get rather hard. It seemed like something was making everything simple was now a life or death struggle for him. He continued to try and not think and slowly let himself speak
"Dawn. What did we do most as kids...?"

"A lot of stuff...I remember we got in trouble a lot...caused a lot of havoc and chaos." Dawn trailed off a little.

Lee slowly let his eyes drift from her toward the direction that she looked off to and then repeated her words
"havoc and chaos, huh. I guess things have changed. I would never think that I was like that. I never would have thought I even had a childhood."
He let himself kneel down next to her

"Yes things have changed for you, not that much for me." Dawn replied looking away from Lee.

Lee slowly let his head lower down as he placed his right hand onto his knee and glanced over at her as she spoke about not really changing that much. He on the other hand turned into a completely different person entirely. It is something that he was still trying to get used to now. He never questioned about his past because it seemed unimportant.

Dawn laid down on the grass and looked up at the sky.

"It really is beautiful here. I miss it."

Lee slowly let his head turn over toward her as she spoke of enjoying it there. He then slowly leaned his head forward and placed it onto his knees as he spoke
"Yes, it is. I've never really had a break. I usually felt best working on something or another."
He turned his attention away from Dawn

"So you enjoy working? That sounds rather odd...Your a workaholic." Dawn looked over at him and smiled before she turned her attention back to the sky.

"People need breaks or else the stress. I for one need breaks because I break easily under stress."

Lee turned his head slightly toward Dawn as he heard her speak of working. He never really had a problem with it. Even though, now that he actually had time off and a break, he was a...workaholic as she said. She spoke about how breaks and rest were major factors to making sure she said sane. He then replied
"It's just, that growing up where work was so constant, I guess I never really learned to do much else so it came second nature."

Michael was wondering about the area and managed to wonder off into the cherry blossom forest. He was tird from all his training with the 2nd Division so he thought a good rest was in order. He would walk about still in his shingami uniform with his two sword attached to his back placed within a scabbard. Michael wondered around and managed to stumble along to the lake. He picks up a few stones and begins to skim them across the lake.

A man sat idol on a bench along side the river quiet and at peace. He didn't make any sounds nor did he really want to. The blue hair shifted lightly with the gentle breeze that swept through the area from time to time. His head was draped back and his eyes closed as if he were sleeping. A light shuffle of his arm showed that he was still alive for the most part. His head slowly pulled itself up and then his body followed as he leaned forward, placing his forearms onto his knees. He let out a low breath as he paused for just a moment and turned his head toward the sound of moving water and noticed that he was not alone and a new face had joined shown itself.

Michael stoped throwing stones and then dropped them onto the ground, He goes onto his knees and looks into the water and sees the different sized fishes, he placed his finger lightly on the top surface of the water and could see the fish sucking on the finger tip giving the symbol that they where hungry, Michael smiles slightly and then takes his figer away. He opens a small bag that he had on his belt and took out a piece of bread that he was saving for a time that he needed it, He broke of some small bits and then droped it into the water. Instatly as the bread touches the water the fishes all gather about and begin to pick on the bread sucking off some damp pieces and swallowing it down. Michael looks at this and Smiles and is facanated at how they go about.

The man slowly watched the soul reaper seemingly enjoying himself with the water. He slowly let his hands come together and then slid his fingers into one another and then rose them up to place them under his chin as he continued to watch the reaper. He looked at the feeding of the fish and found it weird for a soul reaper doing a simple act like that. He looked back out over the water and spoke aloud
"Well, I'm sure you'll need more bread if your going to try and feed them all."

"WOAH!!"

Michael is suprised by the voice and begins to wobble loosing his balance about to fall into the water from the suprise he got from the unkown sudden voice.

Lee listened as he heard the sound of the soul reapers reply and the sudden flailing that soon followed. Lee leaned forward and flash stepped behind the reaper with his right hand out reached to take hold of the nap of the reapers collar tightly and paused. He let out a low sight as he spoke
"Gah, be more careful."
Lee could only remember when he and Dawn were here in the past before. He slowly pulled the shinigami back slightly as he turned his head away from him

"Woah..! Thanks Mr!"

Michael gets up from the floor and dusts himself off.

"Thank you sir! I dident see anyone here when I came I Apologise If I disturbed you If you like I could leave and wonder off somewhere else Sir!"

He says this in a polite and respectfull voice and tone.

Lee slowly released his grip on the soul reaper as he was now able to stand on his own. He then started to listen to him babble on and calling him 'sir'. This was something he had no heard in a very long time nor did he want to. He moved his left hand into his pocket and then moved his right onto the back of his head as he rubbed it and replied
"Well, I didn't plan on seeing anyone here. It is usually very quiet and under the radar. And that brings up another question. Who are you? I usually know most soul reapers in all the thirteen squads."

"Oh I'm Michael Shichirou I am the newest Recruit of Squad 2!" He bows to him in respect then stands back into attention.

"Who may you be sir?"

Lee listened as the soul reaper gave his name and his rank and soon the squad he was stationed with. Lee paused as he turned toward Michael and then slowly moved his hand from behind his head to cover his face as he looked toward the ground.
"Yet another of his little petite little drones he sucks in."
He then moved his hand from his face as he then replied
"Well, I would rather not give out my name. It tends to cause more of a tussle than I would like. So you can just call me sir. So, you are in squad two? I know a few individuals in that squad, how are they doing?"
He still had to make good on his word toward Leiko, that treacherous leaking foul. He'd have to make sure something was done to Mukuro to make sure she knew he was going to make good with his threat.
