The wind was whipping the cloak around her, tearing it this way and that as she raced alongside Renji. The path stretched ahead in, straight and narrow as they crossed between worlds.
Yet again there were rules being broken and authority being skipped around. Yet again they were heading to help people they had known for barely a year, barely any length of time.
Ahead the path stretched on.
She tilted her head to look towards her companion. He was racing on, forehead furrowed in determination, his expression so similar to the one worn by the person they were rushing to join.
Her head snapped back to focus on the path, her feet continuing to pound against the road they were travelling on.
From Soul Society to the human world to Hueco Mundo.
Not the easiest route to take, but the only one they could.
The rules were being broken yet again, once more.
Once again, to help that orange haired teenager.
The path in front shone and shone brightly, leading the way.
