Description

- Isn't the answer obvious ...?!
While looking at her, I frowned my eyebrows and my eyes narrowed. Lia was clenching her teeth hearing those words.
- What … Do you mean ?
- Uh ? You don't understand ? Ok I'll explain.
I turned my back so I could see the shining moon. At the same time, I started telling her what she wanted to hear.
- From one point of view … You ruined my life. You Arrancar attacked us here, in the Human World. Having a few injured, including the Vice-Captain of the 7th Division and myself, you also gravely injured a high-ranked officier. So much that, even now, we're still unsure about her current state. Is she alive? Is she not? We can't even find her.
- …
Lia look down while hearing that. She was clenching her fist as much as she could.
- Then! While I was in Hueco Mundo, me a Human, I almost died countless time. I had to fight Rudacreiss in a Death-Battle and with some kind of luck I managed to live…no, I even survived. Though, as if it wasn’t even enough, when I woke up,  I didn't even get the chance to rest. Not even a second.
- I … I am …
- You, two Arrancars, had me chained up. You tortured me. Once again I managed to free myself by luck alone. Though you followed me. Not to kill me. Just to « Play » with me while I already was at Death's Door. Though we can't really speak of »Psychic Pain », you threatened me.  About killing all those close to me. Saved by Nimaijita, we managed to escape. And now that I'm back home, I have nothing but a peaceful life.
- … Understood.
Lia then started to turn her back while taking her first step.
- HOWEVER!
Lia's eyes widened up as she quickly turned back to face me.
- On another point of view … I did ruin your life. 
- What the hell are you spea-
- If Shiro and Matsunami-san didn't came to search me especially in the first place, none of this would have happened. I wouldn't be a Shinigami right now. These two, who are Vice-Captains, wouldn't even came here in the first place cause it wasn't their duty to be on this city. The fight with you, Arrancar, would have never happened either. Matsunami still would be the Vice-Captain of the 9th Division. I wouldn't have come to Hueco Mundo and so, Shiro wouldn't have called me to speak about Matsunami-san. The Soul Society wouldn't follow me through Hueco Mundo and the Captain of the 9th Division, Shikei Utsueiri wouldn't have attacked you. Leaving you to live a peaceful life with your sisters. 
- (I-Idiots, you're lying to yourself... It's just a bunch of coincidences … It has nothing to do with you …) So …
With a suspicious look, Lia took a step forward to me.
- … What's the point of saying all of this to me? 
- Once again it seems pretty obvious.
-  (Tch … He getting pretty confident as time passes …)
- The first point of view is the negative one in your case. If I should only refer to this one, I would be against you. Of course I would have never told you that. You would have go to Soul Society. But as your enemy, I could had warned the Soul Society so they could kill the four of you in an instant.
Lia clenched one more time both of her first, ready to punch me to death probably.
- But the second point of view would be the positive one. I would follow you in your quest, blindly following you so we could save Nola. It wouldn't be a case of liking you or not. It would simply be a debt I would have toward you. By doing this, I could have re-pay you.
- So ? Where are you going this with this? By telling me that, you can't betray me anymore, otherwise I could kill you before you can even become a Shinigami. But you probably won't simply follow me because of a debt as you clearly explained me the reason. So what are you trying to do ?
- Exactly. It's now too late to betray you or follow you. But think about it. What about + and - ?
- + and - ? What do you mean ?
- If the 1st Point of View is -, then the 2nd one is +. Of course they cancel each other. So I shouldn't come with you, but I wouldn't contact Soul Society either. I would be neutral.
- I see … I suppose that this is your answer then.
- Not exactly.
I placed my left hand on my pocket to get something off. While doing my move, Lia and the others reached for their Zanpakuto.
- Calm down.
I took my wallet out from my pocket. After opening it, I took out a photo of my sister, Hinata.
- Hm? Who is she ?
- My little sister. Hinata.
- ?!
After showing them for a few second, I immediately put it back in the wallet and in my pocket.
- Do you remember what you said before ?
- Before ? 
-«  Because she's my sister. » Here's what you said.
- … You … !
- During those two days, I spend time with mine. She was so happy. No, actually, we were. I don't know how it is to be Only Child, but I'm grateful to not be one. Having a sister or a brother is something wonderful. And so, during those two days, I realise that I would burn the whole world for her if it was necessary. And that you would do the same for your sister.
- … You're pretty clever when you want to be.
- Ah, thanks ! Anyway, this reason alone was enough to have the balance tilting. 
- Do you mean that …
- I'll help you. We're gonna save Nola. 


At this moment, Lia's face was lightened up by a smile I never saw until now. It was clearly happiness. The happiness hiding a clear desire to save someone. Even if it means having bloodied hands.
- We're gonna leave in 8 hours, at dawn. I want to say goodbye in a proper manner to my family.
- Sure. We'll wait for you.

At my house. 11:08 A.M.

After leaving the place where we were with Lia, I went back to my home. Hinata and Hinode were still awake. It was certainly a surprise. It looked like the both of them watched a romantic series while my mom was settling the bills. After having them reunited in the kitchen, we started to chat.
- What ?! You'll go again Onii-san ?
- Yes. As I told you, I will go for a week or two on another country. We're still deciding between Spain and France though. 
- But Onii-san ! You can't go like this ! It’s so sudden !
- She's right Kurasa ! At least, think of your mom who spent years trying to educate you ! Bring me some specialties !
Hinode laughed while hearing my mother.
- Hihihi
- Don't you want some too Hinode ?! Hehe !
- I sure would like some!
This conversation last for more than 3 hours. How unexpected. It was almost 3 P.M. And all of us still were up. It was a special case though. Tomorrow. No. In a few hours, I would go on « Vacation ». Still, I was awake. It was 7:48 A.M. It was time to go.
- Here I go. Hinode, be sure to keep training. I don't want you to become fat when I'm back.
- Hehe, silly Ku-chan. Of course I will. We'll wrestle once you're back !
- Haha ! Hinata … Don't worry. I'll be back soon. Once I will, we'll go wherever you want, even if its at the opposite pole of Japan, Ok ?!
- Sure, big bro !
Hinata was smiling. Her smile was worth anything. Then, I looked back at my mother. She was trying to have the same smile as Hinata.
- … Disgusting.
- WHO ARE YOU CALLING DISGUSTING YOU DAMN BRAT !
- L-Let go of me ! 
- Tch ! Now you have to bring me twice the food !
- Urgh ! … Ok I will … 
As I stepped outside, I turned to look at them one last time. It could have been the very last time I saw them. I wasn't really sure.
- Well … Be sure to keep yourself healthy. 
- You too onii-san !
Then I left.

In the neighborhood. 8:04 A.M.

- Here we go.
Lia was here with Perro, Suripu & Kira.  I managed to find them according to their Reiatsu.
- Then, here's the complete team. I guess we are all ready to go?All ready to bet our lives ?
- … Indeed we are.
All of us were standing in the middle of the street. Somewhat scared, yet happy. Maybe a bit nostalgic.
- Now that I think of it … We're only 5 … Will it really be Ok ?
Suddenly a voice appeared in the darkness. Though it was the dawn, most of the city was submerged by the shadows..
- ?!
- Who is that ?!
Someone appeared behind me. They weren’t here to harm me.
- You !
- You are … NIMAIJITA !
Both Lia and I were surprised to see her, right here, right now.
- What are you doing here ? How did you know ?
- I simply was following you all this time. And I'm here the be the 6th member. You alone don't stand a single chance against the Gotei 13. I'm not saying that I will assure you victory but … The more of us there are, the better it is.
- Aww ! What luck ! With Nimaijita-san, we’re safe !
-(Is this idiot even hearing what she was saying …)
- Though I don't quite understand why you were following me, I'm glad you're here Nimaijita-san ! 
Nimaijita then giggled. I think it was the very first time I heard her giggling, let alone smiling.
- Haha. I'm glad you're safe too, Kurasa-san !
- Yeah ! Haha !
A silence for a few seconds. I then dared to speak.
- I have a question … Does anyone know how to get to Soul Society ?
- …
- …
- …
No one answered. We all looked like idiots in the middle of street. Suddenly I felt a presence behind me. Before I could even turn back, he spoke. I didn't know his voice. I didn't know his presence. It could be clearly said that I didn't know this person.
- Eh ! May I help you ?
His smile was frightening. His white clothes were shining in the darkness. He was a newcomer. But all of us were thinking the same. 
- (Is he a Friend or a Foe?!)
