Welcome to Gaia! ::

-cross walks up to a freshly dug grave and bows down on nees- Dear friend,it would seem that we have part ways. -cross touches the grave with a sad look on her face from the death of captain Shi Ryu of squad 2- You will be remembered.Maby not by the rest but by me. -cross sadly sits before the grave as it starts to rain-

Captain Ryu was my best friend.We were the ones who built the seritei.And now shes gone.I dont know what ill do without her.Most here didnt know her.But I did.But her place has already been filled.I just wish more knew her than me.

Anya walks up the path carrying a white rose in her hand. She sees Cross and Tetsu speaking. She quietly walks up beside Cross and lays the white rose on the grave. She looks at Cross. "I sorry for youe loss Cross..she's in a better place now." Anya puts her hand on Cross's shoulder. Anya then walks away felling the tense atmosphere.

-cross started to feel a hint of anger as the others talked- None of you knew her,you wouldnt know what she would want! -cross stood up and walked away to bankia training field to releas her uneeded anger-

-Val arrived before deciding to leave Sereitei. He believed it would be his last time too, so taking necessary stops was wise before he did. He at least arrived at the ceremony. late, extremely late. he saw few shinigami nearby. He knew that this specifici shinigami was someone very close and specific to Commander Cross. although Val had also gotten close to Cross, he felt that this specific individual was extremely important to Cross.- "I know you are a good friend of the commander. she had sought out peace for the entire soul society. She very strong, and yet beats herself up over things sometimes. So far even as a commander, she needs help. fortunetly someone like Brago is there to protect her. And i myself as well. making us a tripod in some way. however every captain here feels the same as i do wanting to help the commander which is what led us into the the 13 protection squads as captains. you probably there for her when i wasn't. And now that your gone, i deeply regret never meeting you in person. I will do my best to be there for Cross. however no guarantees... I will do battle within hueco mundo a second time. i do not plan to run away this time. i want to try to finish this. You'll probably beg me to fill in the spot for Cross or probably not. i would honored if that was the case but no one can replace you. I can however provide her with advice, and comfort if she needs it. i would do anything for her. Anything. If love her if it comes to that." -Val chuckled.- "Ha i speak of nonsense, like that will ever happen. If it does though, i would embrace it. but for now my decision is clear, i may not return once i step into hueco mundo. I wanna say farewell to soul society i guess before i leave. or at least visit the places i've been to before. Well i'd better be going, goodbye."


-He turned and walked away looking for Cross.-
