One lovely afternoon, Wabisuke was strolling down the streets of Rukongai with nothing in particular to do. As the happy chatters of the citizens stopped to glance at Wabisuke, they quickly ran away. Of course, those were the adults.
As he walked farther into the road, almost the entire road was emptied. Except when Wabisuke's eyes caught the shadows of four boys playing a ninja game, throwing paper shuriken around.
Wabisuke turned and walked towards the kids.
"Child, laugh for me," he said to one boy.
Feeling the touch of the zanpakutou's skinny hand, the boy glanced over his shoulder.
Colors drained from the young boy's face.
"GYAAAA!" The boy screamed, along with three other high-pitched screams. The frightened boys ran for their lives, -although tripping along the way and fell flat on their face and cried even more, they still got up and ran for it.
Wabisuke stood still as an empty wind blew by.
"What gloomy children," he commented.
The next day, Wabisuke was taking another walk around the Rukongai. He spotted a young girl with a baby in her hands. The baby was crying, while the girl was swaying the newborn around to comfort him.
Deciding to sooth the baby, he walked towards the baby, kneeled down to its level and said, "Child, laugh for me."
Like a miracle, the baby stopped wailing and stared straight into Wabisuke's eyes, which is a rare sight to see.
Wabisuke's eyes were wide with concern, but instead… He looks like as if he's ready to kill that baby.
So, the baby, scared the living daylights out of him, cried with all its might, fidgeting around the girl's small arms.
The little girl, of course, was scared as well. Her face paled, and her eyes were wide with horror. Of course, she did what everyone would say: "MOMMY!"
She ran away as fast as she can, and as far as her skinny legs can go.
Wabisuke stood back up, straightening his posture. "What gloomy children."
The day after that day, Wabisuke was again, taking another walk down the Rukongai. This time, the road was filled with only… cats?
Ignoring the cats' eyes following him, he walked on. Along the road, he found a baby cat. It seemed frail to Wabisuke, and had a nice tan brown fur, too, with huge jade green doll eyes.
Thinking that it was lost (since it was hiding under a chair), Wabisuke decided to have a little 'chat' with it.
"Child, laugh for me," he said, opening his palm for the cat to lick.
The cat stared at the hand for a while, blinked, and then gazed at Wabisuke's face. Its eyes went wide, and its furs, tail, and limbs stood straight up, hissing at the manifested spirit.
Immediately, the cat jumped to Wabisuke's face and scratched viciously with its deadly claws.
When it was done with its job, the baby cat purred satisfyingly and walked away, its tail shaking back and forth.
Face littered with scratches, Wabisuke stood watches the cat go away, and muttered, "What an ignorant and gloomy child."
The day after that day, Wabisuke decided to stay home. He was tired of walking around Rukongai, and having the kids shriek and run away. So, he decided to walk around the Third Division's garden.
The garden was always beautiful and full of greenery. Being careful not to step on the grass, Wabisuke tip-toed to the birdhouse.
Although it was unknown to everyone, Wabisuke would secretly feed the birds when they aren't in the birdhouse (since Wabisuke thought birds are hungry little things).
And so, Wabisuke took out a little handy bag filled with bread crumbs. He tore open the seal, and then poured it inside the shelter.
What Wabisuke didn't know, was that there were four unhatched eggs inside.
Maybe it was a coincidence, but the mother bird was right there, flying back to its home, eager to warm its eggs.
However, when the bird eyed Wabisuke, she snapped. Thinking the zanpakutou was an enemy wanting to take away its child; she glided downwards, and pecked wildly at Wabisuke's head.
"Ow," Wabisuke muttered with almost no emotion.
The mother bird ignored him and continued its pecking. After a series of pecking, the bird decided it was time to leave a little present for him.
She glided back up into the sky, and Wabisuke's eyes followed. He saw something white drip down from the bird, but he wasn't sure. When it dripped down on his forehead, Wabisuke instantly knew what it was.
Wabisuke stood still. "What a gloomy child."
"Oh, so how was your walk?" Kira asked, as his zanpakutou walked into the office. There was something white on his forehead, Kira noticed, but he didn't bother even asking.
"..Depressing as usual," Wabisuke replied.
A sweatdrop fell down Kira's head. "I-I see..."
"By the way," Wabisuke said, pointing to his forehead. "Do you mind getting me a towel? I got some bird droppings on my head."
"Wha-What?"
