IV: Change
"What would your judgment be on the soul you just freed, Tatsumi-san?" EnmaDaiOh asked Tatsumi as he watched the tall shinigami pace in front of him.
Tatsumi glanced up, sapphire eyes flickering over at EnmaDaiOh as he stopped his pacing to consider the question. "There was a fire in his eyes, like a grim determination that he would get revenge on his killers, no matter how hard it might be. The fact he even survived the third degree burns under those bandages long enough for them to get him on life support attests to his willpower to continue living, or remain on earth." he said. "I have no doubt he could easily become a shinigami and be good at it."
"Hai, you are right on the last account at the very least."
Tatsumi blinked and looked at his superior in faint confusion, before speaking. "What do you mean by that, may I ask?"
"The soul, Watari-san followed you here. He's already become a shinigami while we've been speaking and I've asked him to join us." A light knock followed EnmaDaiOh's words and Tatsumi turned to face the door as it opened to admit a man dressed in jeans and a white smock that hung loosely over a blue shirt with a black turtleneck underneath it. The blonde turned to walk towards them, his hair pulled up in a loose pony tail at his neck.
"Tatsumi-san, Watari Yutaka. He's been given the Kyoto region seeing as he's from that area. Watari-san, Tatsumi Seiichiro, Tokyo region."
Watari smiled and nodded at Tatsumi, as he came to stand in front of both Tatsumi and EnmaDaiOh. "Pleased to meet you, Tatsumi-san." he said, looking into Tatsumi's eyes.
Tatsumi stared at the other man in silent shock. This wasn't the man he had spoken to in the hospital. There was no trace of recognition in the amber eyes, and they held none of the furious determination they had held earlier. Something was definitely wrong here. Tatsumi finally shook himself out of his shock and murmured a quiet. "Excuse me, Watari-san, EnmaDaiOh-sama."
Quickly after he spoke, Tatsumi lowered his eyes and turned away to walk towards the doorway and exit the room. EnmaDaiOh watched Tatsumi's exit silently, as Watari blinked in confusion at the cold reception.
