Kori knocked on the door to the captain's quarters.
"Yes, come in."
He sounded like she felt.
Kori slowly slid open the door and walked in. She got on her knees and bowed her head.
"Captain, it would mean a lot to me of you kept what we discovered between the two of us. It is not something I really want people to know." She tried to contain her emotion.
"I have also made my decision to travel through to Hueco Mundo to find out more about what this scroll says." Kori looked at her captain with pleading eyes. The same eyes that has looked at him 19 years ago. He walked over to her and put his hands on her shoulders.
"You will always be a part of squad 10. Not just as a soul reaper, but as our family." He actually knelt down and hugged her as tightly as he could.
"But I understand your curiosity. I will write a report stating that I sent you in a secret mission. No one will know of your journey but me. Please be safe. Once you enter Hueco Mundo, the arrancars will sense the spirit energy of a soul reaper. Make certain that you aren't there for a fight." Toshiro looked Kori right into her eyes. "And please return safely" he kissed her cheek and went back to his desk. "You leave in an hour. Meet me at the senkaimon."
Kori stood and nodded in understandment. She quickly turned on her heels and walked back to her barracks. Kori packed very lightly. Making sure to only take the bare minerals. She knew her chances were slim to none, but she needed to know more. When squad 10 had found Kori 19 earlier, she wore a necklace around her neck. The necklace was made of white gold and had bizarre markings on it. Kori grabbed the necklace and clipped it around her neck. She tucked it under her kimono and took a deep breath to calm her nerves. She looked at the clock and after realizing how much time she had left, Kor slipped on a hooded cloak to hide her face and headed towards the senkaimon. There awaited her loving captain. He had a small bag that contained a few items of food. She took it graciously and kissed his cheeks. They didn't exchange any last words. They just held hands until Kori slipped into the blackness of the precipice world. She didn't look back she just kept running until she finally reached her destination. Hueco Mundo. Next stop, Los Nochas.
