The next day, Captain Mosabi was standing outside of Captain Karin’s door. He took a deep breath. “Well, here I go…”

Just as he was about to knock, Captain Emashi’s voice startled him. “So you finally have the guts to do this?”

Captain Mosabi looked at him. He rolled his eyes. “You need to stop popping up like that.”

“Sorry.” Emashi said smiling. “So you’re going to ask her?”

Captain Mosabi reached into his Captain Robe pocket and took out a small, box shaped case. He opened it revealing a beautiful crystal ring that sparkled in the sunlight.

“Wow!” Emashi said chuckling. “That’s a beauty. She will love that. That must of coasted you a fortune!”

“Yeah, it wasn’t cheap.” Mosabi said closing the case. “Now get out of here so I can ask her!”

“Alright, alright.” Emashi said rolling his eyes. “Good luck.”

Emashi turned and walked away. Mosabi opened the case again, looking at the crystal ring. He closed it, and took another deep breath. He knocked on the door.

“Hold on.” Karin’s voice called faintly from inside. Mosabi can hear her walking around inside.

The door flung open revealing Karin, in the regular Soul Reaper uniform, without a Captain Robe. She smiled when she saw him. “Hello Mosabi.”

“Uh, hi Karin.” Mosabi said nervously. He began to shake a little.

“Are you alright?” Karin asked noticing him shaking.

Mosabi sighed and kneeled down. He revealing the case and opened it, revealing the sparkling crystal ring.

Karin gasped and covered her mouth with her hand. Mosabi smiled. “Karin, will you marry me?”

Karin was in total shock and tears rolled down her face. “Yes!” She hugged him laughing with joy. She took the ring and studied it. “Amazing! This must have coasted you a fortune!”

Mosabi chuckled and they hugged again.

The news of Mosabi’s proposal spread fast. All the male Captains and Assistant Captains congratulated him, while all the female Captains and Assistant Captains congratulated Karin. This included Naruto and Sakura also.

“Well you did it, see? That wasn’t so hard!” Emashi said smiling.

“Easy for you to say.” Mosabi said laughing.

“How did she like the ring?” Chiryuu asked. “Emashi told us it was pretty cool.”

“She loved it.” Mosabi answered.

“Congrads.” Naruto said patting Mosabi on the back.

Mosabi smiled, he was never happier.

The next day, Soria was waiting on the bridge with fog under it. She was asked by Ishimaru to wait for him there. Shortly after she arrived, he arrived.

“Hello Ishimaru.” She said smiling. “Why did you want to meet me here?”

Ishimaru looked upset; he was looking at the ground and sighed.

“Is something wrong?” Soria asked concerned.

“I need to resign as Captain.” Ishimaru said looking at her. Soria froze and shook her head.

“What?”

“I’m going to resign as Captain, and find that Hallow that killed Ken.” Ishimaru said looking away from her. “And kill it.”

“Are you insane!” Soria yelled. “Are you doing this because Clema won’t forgive you? You can’t do that!”

“It’s not because of that,” Ishimaru said suddenly. “You wouldn’t understand. I need to do this.”

“You can’t!” Soria screamed. “If you even find the Hallow, you can’t take it on by yourself! You’ll be dead, like Ken!”

“Maybe, but I need to try.” Ishimaru said. “I’m sorry.”

Soria was crying. Ishimaru turned to walk away, but Soria grabbed his arm. “DON’T GO!”

“I’m sorry.” Ishimaru said sadly. “I need to.”

“NO!” Soria yelled. “NO!”

“Soria, please let go.” Ishimaru asked calmly.

Soria gripped his arm even tighter. “NO! YOU’LL DIE!”

Ishimaru sighed. “I’m sorry.”

Ishimaru turned and slapped her in the face, causing her to fall down. Ishimaru ran the other way. Soria struggled to get up, and when she did, he was gone.

Soria fell to her knees with tears rolling down her face. “DAMN YOU ISHIMARU!”
