Dear Bells,

Hey Bellemere, congratulations on making it! I knew you could do it. You've always been so strong. Making it as a marine officer wouldn't be a problem for you. I heard you get to work with that Smoker kid. Try not to beat him up ok? He isn't as strong as you are, no one is. I know that much for a fact. You're the strongest kid in the marines! Sengoku San was surprised you shot up in the ranks so quickly! He said not many people make it as marines, but he sees a fire in you. From him that's a really good thing.

Don't tell anyone else that ok? They will think Sengoku San is favoring you and he can get in a lot of trouble I think. After everything he's done for me, I would hate if he got in trouble over a letter like this. He's truly a great man…I hope you get to meet him some day. He can be a little harsh sometimes, but I think that's something you may like about him. You both have that in common. Saying what comes into mind.

I wish you luck…I know we can't talk about much. The things we will do and see can be scary. I hope you're ready for it. I know you're strong enough physically…but are you mentally? Please don't beat me for saying that. I just worry I guess…before you came I didn't really have may friends. Now even that Smoker guy seems friendly towards me. Just try and be careful out there ok? I don't want anything to happy to you.

Your friend,

Rosinante
