A throbbing, a knocking, a beating made a terribly loud voice in her head. At any moment she would appear before the assembled people and be appointed commander of the 3rd Division. Aimi looked again in the mirror and nervously tugged on her robe here and there. "It will be fine Aimi-chan, you will be a captain soon and then you will feel better." Quietly heard her say Hisagi. She turned to him and smiled gently, which threw him a little off track. "Thanks, I'll go out then," said Aimi and stepped out to the others. When she came out, she felt all the looks that were curiously upon her. It wasn't a long ceremony, but it seemed terribly long. When Aimi stood up there on the dais, she raised her head and looked at the people who had come. At any moment she would take the place that had made some people crazy. It was like a curse to lead this division, but she dared to do it. When it was all over, Aimi stepped relieved to her division to celebrate the event. Then it was suddenly quiet and it was as if Aimi was standing there alone on the square and opposite her the man who had her current task in his hands before, the man who had betrayed all the people from the Soul Society, was standing in front of her with gin Ichimaru and gave her a light wave with his big grin on his lips. Aimi looked over at him perplexed, but was then brought back to reality. "Hizuki-sama is something wrong?" Kira asked calmly, looking at you. Aimi looked over at him and nodded tentatively. "No ... no, everything is fine." She whispered softly and then sagged. Before Kira could catch her, Hisagi had her in his arms. "Maybe you should postpone the partying until later," he smiled gently and carried Aimi to a bench so that she could rest.

"I ... Hisagi ... I saw him," she said, completely disturbed, and looked at Hisagi, who didn't know who she was talking about. "What do you mean? Who did you see?" He asked confused and gave her some water first. "Gin,…. Ichimaru-sama ……. He was there on the square and grinned at me," she said and Hisagi sighed. "It was a lot of excitement for you today, your mind can play tricks on you. Gin is no longer here, he's a traitor to Hizuki-sama," he said formally and drank something. "I'm not crazy," said Aimi and walked away. Hisagi looked after her and sighed deeply again before pouring down a sip of sake. "Our captain is a woman, I still can't believe it, it can't go well. A weak woman as a commander." one heard someone from the 3rd division say. Before Hisagi could defend Aimi, Kira was there. "Do you actually know how lucky you are that Hizuki-sama is our new commander? What a weak woman, I have seldom seen someone fight with so much passion and elegance.It's like she barely moves in combat and yet her opponents go down. So you'd better be careful what you say. "Then the men fell silent. Hisagi smiled contentedly and had another drink.

Aimi went to her room and thought. "Somehow I don't like you thoughtfully," she heard behind her and therefore made no move to turn around. She heard his voice already. "I'm just making up my mind, you're not real, you're gone. You betrayed us." Aimi whispered helplessly and then she felt a hand on her shoulder. "I'm not an imagination Aimi-chan, I'm here right now. Those bunglers don't even notice." he breathed on the back of her neck. He loved to torment her, he took great pleasure in it. Aimi shuddered and wanted to look at him. "I have now taken your place, so get out of my thoughts at last. You betrayed me, yes you used me, I would have put the world at your feet, yes I would even have died for you." said Aimi and had to suppress her tears. "You hate me, that's good ... that makes you strong," Gin laughed coldly and turned Aimi to look at her. When he saw her tears, he was silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. He was cold, that was true, but the young woman had softened something in him a little bit. Aimi bowed her head. "I don't hate you gin ... .. I could never hate you. You still mean so much to me, but you just play with my feelings." Aimi said and Gin lifted her chin. "I'm a bad guy, you'd better concentrate on preparing your squad because bad guys like me can't be trusted," said Gin coldly and pressed his cool lips to hers for a brief moment.

Shortly afterwards Aimi woke up, she had fallen asleep at her desk and now put a finger to her lips. "It felt so real," she muttered softly and then heard a knock.
