"Oi, the skies were clear not too long ago…"
The Reaper mumbled to himself, hands stuffed down into the pockets of his now, soaking wet trousers as he scuttled along the streets. He had to go back to the Academy after hours for a meeting with his father—The once, sunny and clear day now clouded and pouring down rain on the poor boy that had gotten stuck in it.
Just lovely.
Keeping his head down as the rain drops pelted down onto his neck, ears perked—Causing his head to as well after a moment or two, something catching his ears…
Was that…Meowing?
Blinking, golden hues scanned back and forth on the street, though, didn't catch anything in sight—But there it was again, that faint meow being heard over the rain. Frowning, he just kept his focus to the small sound, soon coming up to small, cardboard box and crouching down, the meowing now silent—Though, he found where it was coming from.
A small, black and white kitten was curled up inside the box, soaking wet and rather weak looking—Couldn't have been more than a couple months old.
"Hey little guy…"
Kid murmured out, receiving a perk of the cats ears as green hues locked onto his own—Though, it didn't seem frightened, more…Relieved if he could tell. Gingerly scooping up the small creature into the palm of his hands the Meister's head tilted, giving it a quick look over before standing back up, holding the feline close to his chest as he used one hand to hold it, and the other to attempt to block the falling rain.
Walking faster now the boy rushed home, trotting up the steps to the manor and shaking his head out, taking a glance down to the kitten before pushing the doors open and stepping inside, removing his shoes and coat and leaving them by the door, crouching down again as he let the small feline out of his hand—giving it a chance to look around.
Standing back up he smiled softly, keeping his vision to the kitten—Making sure he didn't run off anywhere. Smiling softly, he scooped it up again soon after, giving it a look—Finding out it was male, and almost instantly trying to think of a name. Though, perhaps he needed some help.
"Hey, Soul! I have surprise."
