Ghosts from the Past (Komamura, Shaoling)

Though it weighed nearly a hundred pounds, Komamura easily lifted and placed his helmet back upon his head. He felt plenty comfortable without it on in front of Shaoling, but didn't want to be spotted by some random person happening across the duo in the alley. He did this as he listened to her explanation of the status of her students, one of whom appeared to be missing, though she didn't seem too concerned about his safety. Sajin was also confident any student of hers would be capable enough to fend for himself. Still, he could understand being worried.

"Tamabuki Yuujin. I will remember that name." Sajin wasn't sure where he could run into the man, but assuring Shaoling of his intention to keep an eye out felt like the right thing to do. He had long ago come to accept the unknown that is tomorrow, so perhaps he would meet this Yuujin after all.

Komamura's eye turned to the darkening world around them as day turned to night. The sky had changed from blue to crimson during their talk, and Sajin knew it was only a matter of time before the Rukongai was blanketed in shadow. Turning back to Shaoling, he regretfully announced his decision to depart "It's getting late. I apologize for cutting this reunion short, but there are things I must do before returning to the Seireitei. I hope you find your student, and that we meet again soon."
