Observation
Karin Kurosaki, the fifteenth captain in Soul Society, was observing at her old hometown in disbelief and amazement. Her hometown was still lively and standing where it used to stand. For fifty years, she fought against infinitive numbers of Hollow classes in her world of desertion and despair. Now, the captain stood on the grassy cliff and was mesmerized the bright town, Karakura. She and her friends had finally mastered the draconian, time-traveling ability.
"Captain Karin." The young woman turned around and faced the stern Vice Captain Heiwa, Heiwa's twin brother, Vice Captain Natsu, and Karin's twin sister, Vice Captain Yuzu.
"We did it. We finally made it." Karin stated with maudlin in her voice box. Natsu grinned in relief and looked around the life, and Yuzu nodded and stared at her birthplace. Heiwa didn't say anything and just stared at the clear sky. She wasn't positive if they made it, but the life around them and the scene of Karakura were definitive to her memory. The tree weren't dying or burnt, nor was the damp soil formed to dust. The town was no longer in ruins or abandoned, and it was similar to a miracle that revived the life from the wasteland.
"Captain Karin, remember our mission. We cannot presuppose that everyone can protect the town by themselves. This isn't our world." Heiwa reminded the leader who realized that it wasn't their world.
"I know. I'm… sorry. I haven't seen this place for a while." Karin rationalized, but Heiwa understood her. Karin wasn't the only one who hasn't seen her birthplace for a long time, but the whole group missed the town after its destruction. Every friend and comrade sacrificed their lives to protect the beautiful town, but four main Hollows overpowered them and wiped out humankind. All of their memories of their friends were now silhouettes as their friends walked into the light. The group was once tenuous because they lost hope and despaired, but now they verified their strength, wit, and strategy to defend the lives they once lost.
"We need a way to hide our identities, protect our friends from their attacks, and prevent our friends from identifying our faces. I want this mission to be accomplished without too much causality for our past comrades, but no deaths will be involved in this time while the four Hollows are in the loose." The martinet ordered as the face of tranquility was masked. Heiwa frowned, reminding her friend and leader.
"Captain Karin. That kind of objective would either alternate time-continuum or distort the time flow." Karin agreed to Heiwa's axiomatic knowledge to the highest degree, but some things can't change once it happened.
"We have no choice. It's either messing our time and world up or the wipeout of humankind and comrades all over again." Heiwa didn't want to cause dialectic, but she agreed to Karin's risky objective. The brunette pushed her glasses up and mapped the area with her power, beginning her tactics.
"At twenty-two hundred, the Hollows will begin the Hollow Invasion again at four directions: north, south, east, and west, but they are prepared for our early arrival since they knew us in our previous battles. Karakura would be a bedlam for Hollows, and everyone would appear to fight all of them off. If we have to fight, we all have to separate instead staying together, suppress our titanic powers, and wear our masks. It is dangerous to the extent of suicide and exposing our true faces, but we are more likely to protect more people that way."
" Ichigo and the main group will be heading north and battling the leader; therefore, Captain Karin will stay here since we have to fight fire with fire. Natsu will take the west since the defending Hollow has barricaded the nourishing Hollows. Since we know the most causality will occur to the east, Yuzu will go there. South is the weakness of all areas, so I will defend there. The main Hollows will appear, so be careful." Heiwa eliminated the map from her hands, and Karin began the command.
"We heard Heiwa's command. Split up and hide. We can wander around Karakura for a bit, but we must not encounter our friends. If this mission is done and we are still alive, we must come back to this place. Understood?" Natsu and Yuzu nodded.
"Dismissed." Their younger siblings disappeared from each other's sights, but Heiwa looked at Karin's pale face.
"I can't believe that after this mission, you'll disappear like everyone else." Karin stared at Heiwa with no emotion and sighed.
"Heiwa, don't repudiate. I will be gone sooner or later, but I won't disappear in this time. I don't want big brother or father to witness my death." Heiwa just closed her eyes and turned around, walking away from the sick Karin.
"Be careful." After Heiwa's message, Heiwa disappeared from Karin's sight. Karin sighed and shook her head as her sad face replaced her serious emotion.
