Looking at the room the sa as he arrived last ti, nothing changes even when he enters the portal. The only change is that it's morning outside and it seems that there are people looking at him.
A girl lying in a bed in the middle of the room looking at him gently, she looked thin and sicky, with her pale skin color and hollow eyes.
She was petite with pale skin and short black hair, though the strand of hair that fell across her face was slightly longer and more frayed at the end. Her eyes were colored purple with a hint of blue within them having a very gentle and delicate appearance that makes her more pitiful than adorable.
"W-Who.. Are you?" She weakly asks.
"Just a visitor, what about you, why are you lying in the middle of the day? It seems you're sick? Do you want to help you?"
The girl shook her head and slowly said," I'm fine…. You don't need to help ….. More importantly… you need to go out of this house before they discover you…"
Sensing that there are no other people around, Xin walks closer to the girl and sits beside her.
Looking attentive to her face, she resembles one of her friends from the look of her.
"What's the matter?"
Xin gently smiled said," You look like one of my friend,"
"Really?"
Xin nodded, he reached and removed the strand of hair away from her face then took her hand to check her condition.
"Your condition is pretty bad, it seems almost all your Reiatsu is sucked out from your body."
"I know."
"Then why not tell him?"
The girl looked at Xin and sadly said,'' He can't help , that person is too powerful and maybe….. There's a bigger thing that will happen if he tries it out.."
"So you chase to disappear silently while hurting him without endangering his life?"
"It seems you know who he is? Can I ask you?"
"Sure."
"Can you answer my question truthfully? Who really are you? And why are you wearing a Captain Coat? I never heard soone like you from his lips, except your Captain Jūshirō Ukitake of 13th Division."
Xin looked at her and said," No, I'm not from the 13th Division, and much less I'm not Captain Ukitake, you see? I'm wearing the 5th Division Captain Coat."
"Who are you?"
"Do you believe in ti travel?"
"Ti travel? Is that a Kid that my husband is talking about?"
"Yes, but not on the level that everyone can use."
"Then you ca from the future?"
Xin nodded while looking at her.
"That's why you know the owner of this house and you know my husband?"
Xin nodded again.
"Do tell , what happened to my husband after I left? Did he find another woman that he will love? Did he …"
Like an unexhausted gun, the girl keeps asking different questions about her husband, about his future, but surprisingly, she never asks about herself at all.
"So… he really becos alone until your ti…"
"No, he did not, actually, he found another girl that likes you that he wants to protect."
"A girl? Wife?"
"No," Xin shook his head." A Sister…."
The girl's face suddenly changes, her face that already pale becos bloodless and gloomy at the sa ti.
"Can you tell …. What kind of girl is she?"
"Initially born into a lower class, she retains her modesty, even as an adopted mber of the nobility. She is graceful and "clean", yet chooses to talk to ordinary people. However, her cool and lone deanor often forces her to hide her personal troubles, even from her friends."
"She is very good at acting, having acted her way through a number of tough situations, such as getting out of trouble with school teachers"
"She always has trouble finding clothes that fit her, especially when she arrived in the Human World, leading to her stealing clothes from so of our friends She likes to climb to high places. She likes everything rabbit-thed and becos quite sensitive when soone insults her obsession with them. People often have difficulty understanding her drawings, which are typically rabbit-like, and don't like it when people complain about their quality because she sucks and it seems she did not have any artistic gene."
"What about you…. How can you describe that girl?" The girl asks while attentively looking at Xin's face that covers in a veil.
"She? Well, I can say that she is a tomboy who likes to do so macho stuff."
The girl look at Xin and said," So she found true friends that can accept her own uniqueness."
"... Thank you….."
"Your welco." Xin visibly sees that the strand of Spiritual Energy inside of the girls is starting to disappear, it seems she finally let go the thing that she kept after hearing Xin's story.
He asked," Are you not going to wait for him?"
"I can't.... I will only hurt him further if i still wait for him…."
"Don't you want to see your sister? Talk to her about the things that happen?"
"I don't deserve her... I abandoned her sowhere and as a sister….. I failed her…. The only thing I'm sorry is…. I can't spend ti with him…. Any more…."
Then the Spiritual Energy inside of her finally disappears closing her eyes while leaving a drop of tears for the person she left alone.
Xin helplessly looks at her, he can save her if he arrives earlier but it's too late, the strand that keeps her awake finally disappears.
A portal the napper above the girl knowing that it's ti to go again, Xin sadly looks at the girl's face for the last ti and then jumps inside of the portal.
A couple of minutes later, a black object suddenly co out from the portal, the black object start to shine in golden light bathing the girls body with warm light, after couple of seconds, the body disappear suck inside of the black object, then a new body appears and the new body seem alive, looking blankly at the black object that enters the portal.
As the portal finally disappears, the door of the room gently opens, a man wearing a captain coat cos near the girl holding her hands and asks," How is your feeling?"
The girl looked at the man and weakly said," Byakuya-sama, please find my sister. Then after you find her, please do not tell her that I am her sister. Without telling her anything, please Byakuya-sama, please protect my sister no matter what. I abandoned her, so I don't deserve to be her sister, so I hope that she can be Byakuya-sama's sister."
"I am sorry if it seed as if I was taking advantage of your kindness. The love that you, Byakuya-sama, bestowed upon , I am unable to requite...for that, I am sorry. These past five years that I and you have spent together have truly been a dream for ..... Byakuya-sama.
The man tears up seeing his wife finally pass, leaving him alone in this cold world.
