Save to Change

It was raining heavily and a nine-year-old boy that had orange hair and brown eyes was being hugged by a woman with long wavy brown hair that was tied to a ponytail. It was Masaki Kurosaki and her son Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Mom," Ichigo said as he started to cry, "I'm sorry… you almost died because of me."

Masaki shook her head, "No, it's not your fault Ichigo. I will always do my best to protect you, my precious boy."

Ichigo hugged back, "Mom."

Ichigo looked over and saw someone holding a sword and it a Shinigami who was wearing a cloak with a hat with his Zanpakuto in hand. The person had short blonde hair and brown eyes and he smiled at Ichigo. Masaki turned and saw the blonde haired Shinigami.

"Thank you," Masaki said.

"I'm just glad I got here in time," The blonde haired Shinigami said as he looked relived.

Later on in front of the Kurosaki Clinic, Isshin Kurosaki, the husband of Masaki and the father of Ichigo was standing and waited with worry. Earlier, he felt that something sinister was lurking around and he was worried for the safety of his wife and son. He looked over and much to his relief, he saw both of them coming back and he saw that neither of them was harmed. Masaki called Isshin as she and Ichigo met up with Isshin. Isshin noticed that Ichigo had his head down feeling sad Isshin asked what had happened. Masaki assured her husband that everything was okay and had Ichigo go inside and Masaki explained what happened. Isshin felt relief knowing that they were able to make it through okay and then Isshin had his wife go inside. Afterwards, Isshin walked a bit and looked around.

"Ramza, you are around, aren't you?" Isshin said.

Someone showed up and faced Isshin and it was the blonde haired Shinigami who was actually Ramza.

"Hello Isshin," Ramza said.

"Thanks for what you did," Isshin said, "You saved my wife and son."

"You don't have to thank me," Ramza assured, "I just what was right. But Isshin, I wonder… did something happen to Masaki? A Hollow like that would have been nothing to her."

Isshin folded his arms and frowned as he suspected something.

"Ramza, have noticed something as you were going through town?" Isshin asked.

"Well…" Ramza said as he thought about it.

Ramza and Isshin spoke and were discussing things that have occurred that had to do with Masaki losing her powers.

Six Years Later

It was a new morning and Ichigo who was now fifteen dressed in his school uniform as he looked at the sky from his room and he smiled.

"A new school, new term," Ichigo commented.

"Ichigo," Masaki called, "are you getting ready?"

"Yeah Mom," Ichigo replied back.

Ichigo picked up his school bag and left his room. In the kitchen, Masaki was cooking breakfast and Yuzu who was Ichigo's younger sister and Isshin and Masaki's daughter was assisting while Karin's Yuzu's twin sister was sitting in the table taking a sip of her beverage.

"Looks great Mom," Yuzu said.

Masaki smiled, "Yes."

Masaki placed the fried eggs on the plates and then turned.

"Ichigo, hurry and get your breakfast," Masaki said.

"I'm actually going to head out right now," Ichigo replied.

"What?" Yuzu spoke surprised, "But Ichigo, what about breakfast?"

"Sorry, I'll be back noon so just leave it there," Ichigo said as he left the residence.

"Geez Ichigo and Mom went through the effort," Yuzu said upset, "she made fried eggs!"

"Don't worry about it Yuzu," Masaki assured with a smile, "that's just your brother."

"You're always so understanding Mom," Karin commented.

Masaki had a warm smile, "Let's eat, it's be just us girls."

"Okay, but where's Dad?" Yuzu asked.

"He's taking care of something in the office right now," Masaki informed.

"Oh," Karin said.

As Ichigo stepped out of his home, he saw someone and smiled as he saw who it was.

"Hey, morning Ramza," Ichigo greeted.

There was Ramza who wore a brown dress shirt, khaki pants with a black belt and brown dress shoes and he smiled as he looked at Ichigo.

"Morning Ichigo," Ramza said with a smile, "I take that you're on your way to your new school."

"Yeah, my first day in high school," Ichigo said, "I'm meeting up with Senna and then Chad as well."

"I see," Ramza said with a smile, "well take care… and please try not to get into any trouble."

"…I'll try," Ichigo said, "oh and about what we talked about it."

"Oh yes," Ramza said, "Are you sure you want to do this? You don't really have to do this."

"…I'm sure of it," Ichigo said, "and it's not just me."

Ramza looked at Ichigo and saw that the orange haired teenager was determined.

"Okay," Ramza said, "I understand."

"Thanks," Ichigo said, "I'll let Tatsuki and Senna know about this as well."

"Of course," Ramza said.

Ichigo left and Ramza stood and then looked at the sky and then he lamented.

"Isshin and Masaki are not going to be pleased," Ramza said, "should I really do this?" Ramza sighed, "I'll have to let them know as well."

Meanwhile in the Ishida Manor, in one of the rooms within the manor, a fifteen-year-old boy smiled at a woman who was resting in bed. The boy was Uryu Ishida and he was smiling at his mother Kanae who smiled back.

"I'm going Mother," Uryu said.

Kanae smiled and nodded, "Have a good first day."

"Thank you," Uryu said happily, "I will."

Uryu left and Kanae smiled as her son left.

Seireitei, Soul Society

In the capital of the Soul Society, various people within the city, whether they be members of the Soul Society's military branches or nobles were going on their days within the Seireitei. In the barracks of one of the Gotei 13's First Division, Momo Hinamori, the Lieutenant of the 5th Division hurried and got to the door that led to the meeting room for the Gotei 13 Lieutenants and she opened the door.

"I'm sorry I'm late," Momo said and then she noticed, "Looks like you haven't even started yet," Momo smiled, "how lucky.

"Just take your seat while we wait," Chojiro Sasakibe of the First Division said.

"Oh, of course," Momo said as she went and sat down in her seat.

"So we have to sit and wait for Rangiku?" Izuru Kira of the 3rd Division asked.

"She probably has a hangover again," Nemu Kurotsuchi of the 12th Division said.

"She's always doing that," Yachiru Kusajishi of the 11th Division commented as she grabbed the snacks in the bowl and munched on them.

"Hey Yachiru, I'm the one who brought those snacks," Marechiyo Omaeda of the 2nd Division pointed out, "You might want to leave some for the rest of us."

"For such a rich guy, you sure talk like a tight fisted money grubby cheapskate," Yachiru commented.

Marechiyo got upset, "What did you just—!"

"Keep your voice down!" Tetsuzaemon Iba of the 7th Division complained while holding his head, "Uh, your voices are like cannons on the back of my skull. Do you have to shout?"

"Well, well, I take it that Rangiku is not the only one with a hangover," Nanao Ise of the 8th Division said as she pushed her glasses.

Elsewhere within the Seireitei, Shunsui Kyoraku, the Captain of the 8th Division was sitting outside on a hill and he had just sneezes and then he sniffed and breathed in and out.

"Ugh, it's spring again," Kyoraku said still sniffling, "Yep, definitely the best cure for a hangover."

Karakura Town, Human World

There was a man with spiky blonde hair and green eyes who sitting in an old rundown temple. The man was wearing a black T-shirt with blue pants with a black belt and he sighed as he looked up in the sky.

"Thinking about things as you sigh," A male voice said, "what are you thinking about this time Cloud?"

The man named Cloud turned to see who it was and it was a man with spiky red hair and blue eyes and he wore a blue polo shirt with green pants and brown shoes and wore a white bandana on his head.

"I'm always thinking of things," Cloud said, "what about you Crono?"

"Me?" The red haired young man named Crono asked, "Oh, I guess I'm thinking about are we going to do and how long we can keep this up?"

"Yeah it's been years since we've been here in this particular place," Cloud said.

"Yeah," Crono said

Cloud picked something up that was beside him and it was a sheathed katana.

"We should go meet up with Ramza," Cloud said.

"Yeah," Crono said as he held his own sheathed katana.

Meanwhile Uryu was walking and was getting close to Karakura High School as he was reading a book. The new freshmen were walking in the campus of the high school.

"Mizuiro!" Someone yelled out.

Some of the incoming students were surprised and they raised their eyebrows as they looked over and saw a brown haired, brown eyed boy panicking and was talking to a boy who had short black hair and green eyes and he was texting on his cell phone.

"Listen, we have trouble!" The brown haired boy said panicking.

"You're always so energetic in the mornings Keigo," The black haired boy named Mizuiro said nonchalantly.

The brown haired boy named Keigo informed him about Ichigo and Chad and Mizuiro was surprised as Keigo talking about the reputation the two had and how much trouble makers they were. Meanwhile, Ichigo was having a conversation with the ghost of a little girl who was crying. With Ichigo was a girl who had amber eyes and purple hair tied with a red ribbon to it and she was also conversing with the ghost of a little girl.

"Senna and I brought you fresh flowers," Ichigo said.

"We hope you like them," The girl named Senna said with a smile.

People were passing by and when they saw Ichigo and Senna, they thought they were being weird since they, as normal people, couldn't see ghost so they had no idea.

"C'mon, what's wrong?" Ichigo asked in a kind tone.

"Yeah, you seem down," Senna asked with concern.

"Well, it's kind of weird," The ghost girl said.

"Hmm, what is?" Ichigo asked confused.

"The sky… the sky's weird," The ghost girl sniffed, "I'm scared."

"The sky's scary?" Ichigo asked and then he and Senna looked up, "Oh, I see…"

"You're right," Senna said, "it is scary."

Meanwhile Ramza was walking and then he stopped and looked up in the sky.

"It feels ominous," Ramza said, "I don't like it," Ramza looked over to his right side, "I wonder if they feel it as well… no, I'm sure they do…"

Back in Karakura High School, Tatsuki Arisawa was on the second floor and looked at the sky from the window and looked around.

"Something feels ominous," Tatsuki commented and felt worried, "it must be one of them that I was told about."

"Tatsuki?" A girl called, "Tatsuki?"

Tatsuki got herself out of thought and looked over to her friend who was a girl with orange long waist-length hair.

"Oh Orihime," Tatsuki said.

"Are you okay Tatsuki?" Orihime asked.

"Y-Yeah, I'm fine," Tatsuki looked over the sky again, "yeah, it's nothing at all."

"Huh?" Orihime asked confused.

Seireitei, Soul Society

In the Lieutenant Meeting Room within the First Division Barracks, Isane Kotetsu, the 4th Division Lieutenant stood up as she was giving her report.

"Next, we need to discuss the replacement of the Soul Monitoring Officer at the 3600 axis in the Human World," Isane stated, "the position is currently being occupied by a member of the 7th Division but due to chronic back pain, he has been out on extended sick leave."

"Ah, a good swift kick in the ass and that guy will be back on his feet in no time," Marechiyo suggested.

"Back pain is serious business," Izuru pointed out, "we need to give him time to rest and recover."

"Lieutenant Sasakibe," Kiyone Kotetsu who was Isane's sister spoke looking at the 1st Division's Lieutenant, "I would like to recommend a member of my division for the task, Rukia Kuchiki."

Everyone looked at Kiyone when she made the suggestion.

"Hmm and why is that 3rd Seat Kotetsu?" Sasakibe replied.

"Well, Captain Ukitake actually spoke about this and feel that it would be a good opportunity for Rukia to get more experience as a Shinigami," Maki explained, "Rukia has worked long and hard and he's confident that she's up for the task."

Sasakibe thought about it and then he nodded and looked at Kiyone.

"Captain Ukitake both feel strongly about this?" Sasakibe asked.

"Yes sir," Kiyone replied with a nod.

Sasakibe nodded again, "Very well, then it's approved. I hereby allow Rukia Kuchiki of the 13th Division take the assignment in the Human World."

Kiyone nodded and thanked Sasakibe.

"Now then, on the next agenda," Sasakibe said.

Karakura Town, Human World

In front of the Kurosaki Clinic, Masaki just saw her daughters off as Yuzu and Karin were on their way to school. Masaki smiled at them and told them to be safe. As they girls were waving back at their mother and leaving, Masaki put her hand down and had a serious expression as she turned around and looked at the sky. She narrowed her eyes and she felt an ominous presence roaming in the sky. She clenched her fist and was worried, worried for her son and daughters and she decided to go inside and talk to Isshin as she would prepare to assist her husband for the day.

Seireitei, Soul Society

Back in the Lieutenant Meeting Room, Yachiru was taking a nap as the meeting continued.

"Proceed to the next matter," Sasakibe said.

"Yes," Isane replied, "as you know, we've been looking for someone to fill the vacant Lieutenant position of the 6th Division. The Captains held the meeting to address this matter and they have chosen Renji Abarai, the 6th Seat of the 11th Division to fill the position."

This surprised the other Lieutenants when they heard Renji's name.

"Hmph, well I don't agree with that," Marechiyo stated as he was picking his nose, "that punk. I can't believe that they actually consider him lieutenant material. The only thing he'll do is scar the name of the Gotei 13."

Yachiru suddenly starting marking on Marechiyo's head. Marechiyo suddenly felt something on his head and it was Yachiru marking Marechiyo's head with a black market.

Yachiru chuckled in glee, "Well, you'll fit right in now that you have a scar on your bald head."

"Cut that out!" Marechiyo said angrily getting Yachiru away from him, "I'm not bald!"

The other Lieutenants sighed. Afterwards, the Lieutenants Meeting was over and most of the Lieutenants left to go back to their respective barracks. Later on in the 13th Division Barracks in one of the rooms, Rukia Kuchiki with the two 3rd Seats, Kiyone Kotetsu who was at the meeting and Sentaro Kotsubaki. Kiyone was facing Rukia and Sentaro was standing by a wall with his arms folded. There were also two others that were in the room, a young woman and a young man and they both were sitting next to Rukia. The young woman had spiked blond hair, the roots of which appeared to be bright pink and bright green eyes. The young man was lean with shoulder-length dark lavender hair that usually falls on his face and covers his right eye and lavender eyes. He also wore a Kenseikan hair piece on his left side of his hair. They were Rukia's surrogate younger siblings, the young woman Homura and the young man Shizuku. The three of them were surprised about what they were being told.

"Wait, I'm being transferred?" Rukia asked surprised.

"No, no Rukia, you're not being transferred," Kiyone assured with a smile, "you're being assigned to go to the Human World."

"The Human World?" Rukia asked surprised.

"Yeah," Kiyone said with a smile, "you see the captain recommended you."

"Me?" Rukia said surprised, "Really?"

"Yeah, it's just like that mission you and I had together," Kiyone said happily.

"The mission you two had together?" Shizuku asked looking at Kiyone.

Kiyone looked at Shizuku and Homura and nodded.

"Yeah, this was before you two joined the division," Kiyone explained, "and it was back when Rukia first had joined us."

"Oh, is that right?" Homura said.

Kiyone nodded and looked back to Rukia, "You remember that, right?"

"Uh, actually…." Rukia spoke shifting her eyes.

"Rukia?" Shizuku spoke raising an eyebrow.

"You see, she doesn't remember going Kiyone," Sentaro spoke up and then looked at Homura and Shizuku, "it's like this you two, the experience was so bad for your big sister that she probably erased it from her memory," Sentaro looked at Rukia, "isn't that right Rukia?"

"Well, um…" Rukia spoke again.

Kiyone got upset and into Sentaro's face.

"Keep quiet!" Kiyone demanded, "No one asked you anyway so why don't you do us all a favor and stick you head in sand somewhere!"

"Oh yeah?!" Sentaro reacted angrily, "What do you think I am? Some kind of ostrich or something?!"

"Will you two just please stop?" Homura said annoyed at what she was seeing, "Seriously, it's always an argument with you two."

"She's right," Shizuku added, "please stop fighting."

"Your new post is in a four kilometer radius around Karakura Town and it's just for one month," The voice of a man said.

Rukia, Homura, Shizuku, Kiyone, and Sentaro looked to see someone showed up and it was the leader, the Captain of the 13th Division, Jushiro Ukitake.

"With your skills, it should be easy," Ukitake continued with a smile, "I'm sure you can handle it Rukia."

"Captain Ukitake," Rukia spoke.

"Oh Captain," Sentaro spoke as she and Kiyone approached Ukitake.

"You shouldn't be out sir," Kiyone said with concern, "you need your rest."

"Are you sure you're well enough to move around Captain?" Shizuku asked.

"If you're not up to it, you don't need to push yourself," Homura added.

"Well that's kind of you all," Ukitake said with his warm smile, "I'm feeling good today," Ukitake looked at Rukia, "even though this is just month long assignment Rukia, I thought you might be a bit anxious about being sent out on your own for the first time so I came to see you off."

Rukia was surprised and felt grateful to her captain as she had her head down.

"Thank you Captain," Rukia said happily.

Ukitake waved it off kindly, "Please Rukia, it's nothing really."

Sentaro and Kiyone smiled seeing the exchange between Ukitake and Rukia while Homura and Shizuku looked at each other and then smiled as they enjoyed seeing Rukia happy.

"Are you going to tell Byakuya?" Ukitake asked.

Rukia flinched a bit and looked at Ukitake while both Homura and Shizuku frowned when they thought about Byakuya.

"Of course I will, I mean…" Rukia replied and then she paused when she, Homura, and Shizuku thought of their surrogate brother, the Captain of the 6th Division, Byakuya Kuchiki and Rukia shook her head with sadness, "to be honest, I don't think I'll say anything to him," Rukia sighed sadly, "Captain Kuchiki hates it when I bother him with every little detail. So I'm just going to leave without saying anything to him about it."

Ukitake looked at Rukia and smiled again.

"I see," Ukitake said, "I understand Rukia," Ukitake smiled, "It's all right, if that's what you really want to do, then I support your decision. I'll tell Byakuya for you so go with a clear conscious."

Rukia felt grateful again, "Thank you Captain!"

Homura and Shizuku sighed with relief while Kiyone and Sentaro smiled. Meanwhile within the 11th Division Barracks, Momo and Izuru were paying to a visit to someone who had long red hair tied in an upper ponytail and it was Renji Abarai. Someone else was in the room with them and it was Ikkaku Madarame who was the 3rd Seat of the 11th Division. Renji was given the notice of his promotion to become the Lieutenant of the 6th Division.

"Congratulations Lieutenant Abarai," Momo said happily.

"Yes thanks," Renji replied he thought about it and then he felt that he needed to be formal, "oh I mean… it is an honor Lieutenant Hinamori, Lieutenant Kira."

"Oh you don't need to be formal with me Renji," Momo assured.

"That's right," Izuru said with a smile, "after all you're same rank as us."

"Well you happy Renji?" Ikkaku asked.

Renji, Izuru, and Momo turned to Ikkaku.

"With a promotion like this," Ikkaku continued, "you've gotten yourself one step closer to Captain Kuchiki and his sister."

"What do you mean?" Renji asked.

"Isn't it about time you talked to her and to Homura and Shizuku?" Ikkaku asked, "When are you going to get over your insecurity with those three? I mean seriously Renji, even though they're part of some great noble family, you can approach them now that you're a lieutenant. You haven't spoken to Rukia in nearly fifty years and the last time you spoke to Homura and Shizuku was forty years ago and you only spoken a few words to them. What I'm saying is that don't you think it's about time you patched things up with them?"

Renji had a sad expression as he took in what Ikkaku was telling them. He knew he was right and Renji honestly did miss Rukia, Homura, and Shizuku.

"Well if you want to talk to Rukia, you might want to hurry," Izuru voice said.

"Huh, what do you mean?" Renji asked.

"Well you see Rukia was just assigned a month long station in the Human World," Izuru informed, "In fact, she's getting ready to leave very soon."

"Oh no, that's right," Momo said with urgency, "You got to hurry up Renji. You don't want to miss this chance."

Meanwhile at the Senkaimon Gate, Rukia was headed for the Senkaimon to go to her assigned area in the Human World and she was being accompanied by Homura and Shizuku with Homura latching onto Rukia.

"There's nothing to worry about you two," Rukia assured, "I'll be fine."

"But still though," Homura said.

"We can't help but to worry," Shizuku said.

Rukia stopped and took the hands of the siblings.

"I'll be fine, Captain Ukitake has placed his faith in me and trusts me for this," Rukia assured with a smile, "I'll be back so you two don't worry."

"Rukia," Homura said.

"I understand," Shizuku said and nodded, "we know you're strong and brave," Shizuku looked over to his older sister, "right Homura?"

Homura looked at the two and nodded, "Yes…" Homura had an encouraging smile, "we'll be waiting for you Rukia."

"Thank you both," Rukia said with smile, "and don't worry, this month will go by fast before you know… I'll see you again and tell our captain and the 3rd Seats I said thanks again."

Rukia left and Shizuku and Homura waved happily at Rukia and told her to be safe and wished her the best of luck. Back in the 11th Division Barracks, Renji just stayed and smiled.

"Renji, are you sure about this?" Izuru asked.

"Yeah I'm sure," Renji said with a smile, "I'll wait until she gets back and then I'll surprise her that I made Lieutenant."

"Is this really what you want?" Momo asked.

Renji smiled, "Yeah it is."

Karakura High School, Karakura Town, Human World

"My perfect life shattered," Keigo said as he was crying.

Mizuiro and Keigo looked at the class roster and they saw they were going to be in the same class as Ichigo and Chad and Keigo was not happy about the development.

"Why?" Keigo asked still crying, "Why did this happen?"

There was a sudden shake and then board that held the class roster was destroyed as a result of two students being punched and kicked by two other students and the ones that did the punch and the kick was Chad and Ichigo. They brought the two students who were hooligans down and Keigo was scared out of his mind in what he was seeing. Ichigo and Chad stood tall as other hooligans students showed up and surrounded Ichigo and Chad.

"It's Chad Sado and Ichigo Kurosaki!" Keigo screamed, "From Mashiba Middle School! Why… why is this happening?" Keigo was panicking again, "This has got to be a real bad dream! A real sick joke!"

"Will just shut up?" Mizuiro said annoyed Keigo overacting to everything.

"Did you think you could get away Kurosaki? Chad?" A boy said with bleached blonde hair and eyebrows that also had three earrings on his left ear and one ring on his lower left tip of his mouth.

"Oh no!" Keigo screamed, "It's Reiichi Oshima from Togata Middle School!"

"Say Keigo, how is it that you seem to know all the punks here?" Mizuiro asked, "Oh and by the way, they're in our class as well."

Oshima looked over to Keigo, "Hey, are you friends with Kurosaki or something?"

"Huh, n-no, of course not!" Keigo immediately replied, "I've never seen him before in my life."

Someone came by and it was Senna and when saw what was happening, she sighed.

"Oh sure, leave me out of this," Senna pouted, "So not fair," Senna huffed, "Ichigo! Chad!"

Ichigo and Chad turned and saw Senna approaching them.

"Oh hey Senna," Ichigo said, "nice of you to join us."

"Not cool, you left me behind," Senna said twitching an eyebrow.

"Sorry Senna," Chad said, "didn't mean to leave you behind."

"Are you sure?" Senna asked.

"Yes I'm sure," Chad said with a nod.

Mizuiro suddenly approached them and extended his hand with a smile and Ichigo, Chad, and Senna were surprised.

"Hi, I'm Mizuiro Kojima," Mizuiro greeted, "I'm from Hiirangini Middle School. I'm in 1-3. It's nice to meet you."

"Oh, you're in 1-3 as well?" Ichigo replied, "Same with us," Ichigo smiled, "I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. The big guy with me is Yasutora Sado."

Chad nodded towards Mizuiro with a smile.

"Hi," Senna said with a smile.

"This is Senna Tokimura," Ichigo introduced.

"It's nice to meet you Mizuiro," Senna greeted.

"Nice to meet you too Senna," Mizuiro replied with a smile.

"So Mizuiro, who's that over there calling for you?" Ichigo asked.

They looked over and saw Keigo who was being held by Oshima and he was struggling to get freed.

"Oh, that's Keigo Asano," Mizuiro said, "he's pretty smart although he doesn't really study but he gets along with everybody and would never lie." Mizuiro smiled, "In fact, he's actually a better person than I am."

"Oh really?" Senna asked.

"Yeah, it's true," Mizuiro said happily.

"You're something else," Ichigo said as he was impressed.

"Huh?" Mizuiro spoke.

"It's pretty rare for someone to say good things about their friend to total strangers," Ichigo said.

Senna smiled and nodded and Chad nodded as well.

"Say Mizuiro, quick question," Senna said, "how good are you at making excuses?"

"Oh well… I'm so good at it with ease," Mizuiro asked.

"Excellent," Ichigo said with a smile as he, Chad, and Senna got ready, "you have five minutes to come with a real good one so we don't get expelled for rescuing your friend Keigo."

Ichigo, Senna, and Chad charged to help Keigo. Tatsuki came by and saw what was going on.

"Oh so this is happening," Tatsuki said.

"Oh is that Ichigo?" Orihime said as she showed up and stood next to Tatsuki.

"Yep and he's at it again," Tatsuki said.

Orihime fidgeted a bit.

Later on in the evening

Ramza was on top of a building and he looked around and two people arrived and it was Cloud and Crono.

"It doesn't seem any sign of them," Cloud said.

"Yeah but the ominous presence is still felt," Crono said.

"We're going to have to keep going," Ramza said.

"Well we've certainly have come a long way," Crono said.

"Yeah," Cloud said, "although things have not been in our favor… like what happened that forced us to leave the Soul Society."

Ramza had his head down and had a sad expression.

"Ramza, it's not your fault," Cloud said, "We made the decisions ourselves. We chose to follow you."

"That's right," Crono said with a nod, "keep your head up."

"Yes you're right," Ramza said as he felt better, "let's go."

That's it for the first chapter. Next chapter: Ramza along with Cloud and Crono hold special lessons and training and delving in the past of the three men.
