TRAINING PARTNER WANTED. MEET AT NORTH RUKONGAI MOUNTAINS!
Kuro Adachihara smiled as he hung up the last flyer he had made. It was a rare thing for him to smile, but he knew noone would be watching as he did. He stood in front of his last stop before the mountain, hanging a flyer up against the wall to one of the numerous North Rukongai villages. He was six feet tall, towering over most of the villages that walked by. He didn't feel bad about this, mostly because he was wearing his white top and dark blue hakama pants to show that he was a student of the academy. He wanted to look official when inviting someone to a training sessions, however he knew this also marked him with a sign of respect. There was also the fact that his height was nothing to feel guilty about, but it wouldn't be the first time his height got him in trouble. His smile returned to it's natural frown as he thought about this.
Upon Kuro's back was a basket made with reeds with arm loops for him to carry it with. This basket also had a reed lid on top to conceal the contents within. What was inside, to Kuro's knowledge, were the standard provisions one would want if they were going on a large training trip. He had packed three loaves of bread, twenty potatoes, ten carrots, two pounds of packaged meat, and finally the secret ingredient to any good recipe. Cabbage. Ten heads of cabbage took up most of the space of the basket. The basket went slightly over the top of Kuro's head and came down to just below his buttocks meaning it was nearly four feet tall if it were placed on the ground.
Another hour went by as Kuro took his time, simply taking a leisurely walk to the opening of the mountain pass. He wanted to save up his strength but there was another reason why he took his time. He had placed many of the flyers earlier in the week but he wanted to give anyone who saw it a fair chance to join. It wouldn't be right for him to just start without someone if they were on their way. Kuro closed his cold, dull blue eyes while reaching up and touching his chin with his thumb and the crook of his forefinger as he stood, waiting. His hair slightly moved with the gentle wind, displaying more closely that his hair, although messy looking at the top, came down to groomed tips all around his head, the very end of the tips becoming stark white.
The mountain pass entrance was very large, standing as if a great wooden doorway. The top of the entrance's gate was a warning placed overtop. 'Warning: steep and narrow paths' Kuro looked at this and chuckled to himself instead of giving it much thought. He was one of the fastest students at the academy. Meaning, as long as he didn't accidentally invite a full fledged Shinigami to this training, he would remain in front easily. But he internally gave himself a smack in the back of the head, frowning a little deeper. He thought to himself, "it's not a competition... this is to grow fool." Kuro sighed, taking off his back pack and placing it on the ground and sitting, the noon day sun hanging overtop of the sky as he waited for someone to arrive. If they did not by the end of the sun's time in the sky, he would depart by himself.
