Dinner approached quickly and when the cooks finished Bkaykuya was outside the door and Mimi had let him in. Rin and Byakuya met at the dinning room table for the fist time that night.

Neither spoke as they ate and barely looked at each other until they had finished and moved into Rin's office where they couldn't be over heard. Only Mimi accompanied them and she was seated in the back corner.

"Am I wrong in assuming that you have a reason for asking me here on such short notice?"

Rin laughed. It was Byakuya's way of saying that she had better have a reason. "Yes, you are correct in assuming that I have a reason. I want to ask you if something is possible." Byakuya nodded for her to continue, "could I make a school for my clan's children on the edge of my land?"

Byakuya looked thoughtful for a minute. "it wouldn't be impossible. With your resources you could have it completed in about a week and you could call on some of your servants to teach classes for a while, at least until you pick out and hire real teachers. I don't see why it wouldn't work."

Rin smiled and then stood up on her side of the desk. "That's all that I needed to know, that it was possible. Thank you for coming over on such short notice."

Byakuya followed her lead and stood after she had, and then followed her as she headed out the door. Mimi stayed behind both of them and when they had left the room she closed the door and locked it.

"I'm glad that I could be of some services to you Lady Hitachi, but try to remember your clan feels shunned by the royal family so I don't know how this idea will work out in actuality."

Rin shrugged. "All I need to know is that I tried Kuchiki-tachio. I'll be fine though, whether it works or not."

Byakuya nodded, "Call workers to get it done and while they're working on your project I suggest you walk around a bit, stretch your legs and get used to being awake again."

Rin had a far off look in her eyes, "Yeah, get out. I'll have to do that while the consturction is going on."

Rin said good-bye to Byakuya and watched him walk out the front doors. When he was gone Rin tured to Mimi, "Could you do me a favor and call the construction people for me?"

Mimi bowed quickly, "Yes Lady Hitachi, no problem. I will have them here tomorrow morning. Anything else that you need?"

When Rin shook her head no Mimi rushed out of the room to make all of the necessary calls as quickly as she could.

It was fairly late and Rin was going to get up early so she went back to her room and laid down in bed. She was still tired and she figured it would take a while to get back to 100% because of how long she had been out.

She wanted to speak to Yuzu so badly but she wouldn't want to lie or give anything away if Ichigo had already told Yuzu that she was injured or in a coma.

Rin wasn't going to make up her mind any time soon and so when she felt Yuzu asking to be let into her mind Rin just went with it and let her inside.

'Hi Karin, I haven't spoke to you in a while. I miss you and school has been so boring since you aren't here anymore.'

'Yeah, I miss you too Yuzu. How are you doing?'

'Fine but I'm pretty lonely here. Ichigo left again. He seemed really worried and he took off. I really hope that he's doing okay.'

Karin felt like killing the idiot. After everything that happened he still hadn't learned to at least calm down Yuzu before he took off like a moron.

'Ichigo's fine. Turst me Yuzu.'

She could feel Yuzu nod her head, but she also knew that Yuzu was crying. 'I no that Ichigo can take care of himself but I'm worried.'

'Nobody could hurt Ichigo even if they wanted to Yuzu. Trust him. Go to bed and relax. Everyone is okay, and Icihgo will be fine.'

'Okay Kairn. I'm glad that you weren't too busy to answer, and I was able to talk to you. I feel better knowing that at least you're okay.'

They finished their good-byes and the connection between them disappeared. When it did she felt more alone than before. She got a taste of being Karin again, and then had to give it up, yet again.

'You are still Karin, even if you hide that part of yourself.'

She rolled her eyes. 'Whether Karin is part of me or not doesn't matter. I don't get to be even part of her, not for a long while.'

Fenikkusu had no response and she didn't expect one so she closed her eyes but before she could reach the sanctuary of sleep she felt her mind being pulled to her zanpakuto's world.

(in her zanpakuto's world)

The red moon was the first thing she saw when she opened her eyes. "Why have you brought me here Fenikkusu?" She asked looking around for the golden phoenix.

She wasn't in the mood to search so she laid back down in the flames and looked in to the black skys. Here she felt like Karin.

Karin was the one who opened and explored this world and while she was here she felt purely as Karin again.

"And that is your mistake, and why it is that you remain unhappy and dissatisfied." Karin heard Fenikkusu say.

The gold bird was now standing over her. "What do you mean?" Karin asked curiously.

There was a chuckle before Fenikkusu continued, "As long as you believe you are two people those two people you believe you are will be at war inside of you."

Karin watched Fenikkusu not quite understanding and Fenikkusu and the golden phoenix knew that Karin had not yet gotten it. With that in mind Fenikkusu decided to demonstrate and split into the three Phoenix's: Shi, Chi, and Honoo.

They all spoke together in a cool voice, "To fight with only one you loose strength, but to fight with all they turn on each other in order to be the best. This is essentially what happens with an inner hollow as well. You must have each submit to one mind that is a combination of all. This produces the best results."

Karin dropped to the ground thinking, "So I'll basiclly destory myself if I don't accept that I am equally Karin and Rin?" She saw the three phoenixs nod in usion, as an agreement to her words, "That works in here and alone but out there I am two different people at the moment."

"Then you will have to accept that but understand you are both and you are in control of both. One mind unites them."

"Thank you." Karin/Rin said before drifting off to sleep with a lot to think about.
