We walked out of the dojo, Damien barely maintained balance when he stumbbled over a rock. "Try again," Said Hana. So we went back into the house. We came out again, this time was perfect. "Can we go now?" Asked Kokoro. I nodded. We walked by the grand hall and look at the wreckage. It was now 4:00. We stopped and rest by the meadows just outside the Sereitei. It was a short rest, only about 10 minutes. Damien complained about it, as usual. We walked and walked until we reached an abandoned home. "Hollows could be lurking inside that home," I said. We just kept walking. It was now 6:15. "Can we rest?" Asked Damien, "Ok". So we set up camp on an empty hill. "Yes, food!" Cried Damien. I was making soup atop a campfire. We needed ingrdients. So Damien set out, Kokoro went to get firewood, and Hana follow Damien. "Ah, alone at last, peace and quiet," I said to myself. So I laid down and watched the clouds go by. Suddenly, a loud sound came from nearby bushes.

I got up and put my hand on the Zanpakuto. I kept looking at the bush. Just more noises, so I went to go check it out. I opened the bosh and it was...A rabbit caught in some vines. I reached out, and thought of eating it, but then I thought of what Hana and Kokoro said, (Prediction) "Haru, you're a monster, eating poor defenseless animals, I hate you!" (Current) So I freed the rabbit. Then blood splattered across my face, I turned around and there was a hollow, eating the rabbit. I stared dead into its eyes. I couldn't move, it was a paralysis hollow. When you look at its eyes, they make your body paralyzed. "Crap, this is how it ends," I thought to myself. The hollow throws the rabbit away and started towards me. I just started thinking. Damien, Kokoro, Hana, Soul Society. The hollow is now a couple feet away. Now I'm starting to sweat. "Shit, Its over," I thought. The hollow then jumps in the air.

I waited a couple seconds until the hollow was visible, when he was out of the moonlight. It's coming down now. All of a sudden, it stop moving, then I started moving. A bright flash then hit the hollow. I looked to where the flash came from. It was Hana and Kokoro. Kokoro made the hollow freeze, and Hana hit it with the bow. I looked around for Damien. He was no where to be found. The hollow got up, I pulled out my Zanpaukto. I ran toward the hollow, but the worst happen. Damien appeared, right in front of me. We collided, and we fell to the ground. I pushed him up, but it was too late, I was hit by the hollow. It had impaled me through the arm, and managed to scratch Damien. I just fell to the ground. Damien stummbled back. "Haru, Damien!" Cried Hana and Kokoro. The hollow then fled. I wasn't fatally wounded. So Kokoro healed me and Damien. "So did you guys get any food," I asked. Damien reached in his pocket and pulled some berries out. We gave him a bad look. "How are you sure these aren't poison?" I asked. "I don't," Said Damien. I sighed.

It was now 11:20. We didn't eat, and it was nearing midnight. I was still awake just looking at the stars. Then Kokoro came to join me. "What's with the look?" Kokoro. "What look?" Me. The one you just had," Kokoro, "It's nothing," Me. "Okay," Kokoro. "Why did you want to follow me to rescue Kurosaki?" Me. "Because, I- I don't want you to die, again," Kokoro. "But if you die, it's all over too," Me. "It's ok," Kokoro. "No, it's not," I said getting up. I reached for Kokoro. "You should get some rest," I said to Kokoro. She nodded and walked toward the rest of the team. After she left, I did. We woke up at 10:00. We walked until we found a lake full of fish. Damien and I leaped into the water. "They're too slippery" Said Damien. I nodded. Hana shot her arrow and caught a couple, Kokoro used her magic and caught some too. Damien put his hand behind his head and laughed. I went underwater. I could see what looks like a hollow mask, I dove deeper, when I touched it, the mask then dug down into the ground. I swam to the surface. I gasped for air then I said "Guys, there is a hollow down there, and I think it's preparing an attack, get ready.

We all got into a formation, staring at the water. Nothing. "Ah, dammit, nothing," Said Damien as he sat down. All of a sudden, the hollows arm reaches from underground and Damien barely gets away. I pulled out my Zanapakuto and slash the hollows hand off. It screeched as it went down. "Watch out, it's a ditch hollow, it can pop up from anywhere," I explained. We waited for a couple minutes until it finally sprung up. "Now!" Cried Hana. And Kokoro used her binding spell. I nodded to Hana, and she fired an arrow directly at it. No effect. "Crap, the arrows aren't effective Haru-Kun," Hana said. Then Damien rushes towards the hollow and puts the berries from before into its mouth. The hollow stuggled for a while, then it stopped. "Ah so they were poison," Damien said laughing. So we left, heading North. After a couple hours of walking, we came upon a village. "We should take a rest," Says Hana. We all agree.
