Clad in his old black Uchiha cloak, Syekren strode through the gates of sunagakure no sato, into the bustling streets. Under the cloak, if one could see as the cloak covered all but his ankles and the hood even cast a shadow over his face, one would find a stout young ninja of sunagakure, clad in black shinobi tights and a gi with a netted shirt, black tabi and black sandals. On the right shoulder was the marking of the Uchiha clan, while on the left was the marking of an ANBU member. Upon his face was black shinobi mask that covered the lower half of his face while his headband was pulled down over his left eye, which was missing at this point. The eye that was there was a dark blue, almost black color, the only other thing that was dark was his hair which had taken on a jet black colour.
He stood quietly in the middle of the bustling street, observing everyone that passed by him, quietly taking everything in. His form moved past each one in turn, making his way towards a small cafe on the outskirts of the market district, his one eye darting to and fro, looking for something specific. Upon reaching the cafe he took a seat on the outside terrace at the behest of the owner, looking at the three empty seats that he was left with. He was to be meeting his squad today and if they were anything like the squad he'd had before, they'd probably be aggravating, angry, smart ass little genin. But, he couldn't judge his new pupils on the actions of his old ones. He'd have to give them the benefit of the doubt and that's exactly what he'd do in this case.
It was a beautiful day, Syekren noted, even if a bit hot. The sun shone high in the sky, sand wasn't kicking up everywhere from the soft wind coming through, and there was no hints of any storms. It was a nice day to sit outside and enjoy oneself. That's what Syekren wished he was doing at least. But instead, he was sitting here on the terrace of some small cafe by the name of 'Sand Witch's Eatery' waiting for three fresh faced genin to join him so that he could introduce himself and take down their dreams, motivations, yadda yadda. When they were done, he'd have to make a report on his evaluation of them, then make a psychological evaluation and make sure they're fit for the active duty of being a ninja. It was all very trying, but to say the least, could be fun.
So who was he going to be meeting today?
Syekren silently pulled a few dossiers out of his cloak, flipping through the first. The first he came to was a young woman, a member of Karisuma. Whatever that was. He'd have information on it if he asked, he was sure. Her name was Lillith and she was a seventeen year old genin. Little old, but she was probably a late bloomer. Much like Syekren. Though, he knew that ranking up in Sunagakure was a bit harder than it needed to be lately after all that happened with previous kage. He'd heard they had a new one, so he'd have to report soon. He sighed and flipped through the next dossier, finding it to be for a young man named Lux. Well, young wasn't the word as he was four years Lillith's senior at a genin level and hailed from the clan Bulate. Shaking his head, Syekren read over the dossier a bit before moving on to the last one. Lynn. A young Uchiha clan member was going to be in his squad as well. Syekren sighed, remembering his last encounter with an Uchiha had ended with the other being dead.
Syekren closed the dossiers and thanked the heavens he was still technically an ANBU so that he had access to more information than just the names of his pupils. He wanted to be sure this time he knew what he was getting into and going in blind, no pun intended, was not something he wanted to end up doing again. Since he'd lost his eye he'd become more careful and cautious about the people he meets and the company he keeps. He just hoped that with taking these three ninja under his wing he would get off the hook for being gone so long and his kage wouldn't flay him alive for it. He'd had personal issues the caused him to be unable to stay around the village until he solved them. There were a lot of problems the village faced now because of him failing to stick around and Syekren noted that he'd remembered seeing new names added to the bingo book. One of them being a ninja he'd met prior to his return: Seiryu. He had no idea what happened to make the other man turn and at this point he didn't care. Once he got back into the swing of things and trained again, Syekren was sure he'd be sent off to find Seiryu and bring him home, dead or alive. That wasn't a thought that the Uchiha particularly enjoyed as it meant more work, but he wasn't one to tell his Kazekage no, especially after disappearing as he did for such a long time. But, to think on that would probably be his downfall as he would show guilt against his actions and he knew that his kage would sense that in an instant. He didn't necessarily feel guilt about it, more he felt as though he just made more work for himself and that made him feel down about it. He hated having more work than necessary and disappearing as he did simply made it so that he'd have more work than ever.
