"Come in," Aimi said clearly and thus rose from her seat. Suddenly Hisagi was standing in the room and grinning widely. "Hisagi Shuhei is on duty, Captain Hizuki," he said silly and saluted. "What's the bullshit Hisagi?" said Aimi and shook her head with a grin. "We have been split up and are supposed to train our two companies together." Hisagi explained and pulled Aimi with him. "Show them how strong you are, because many still underestimate you. But once they see how you fight, they will appreciate you." Hisagi said and Aimi smiled calmly to himself. Finally they arrived at the training ground together. "Well, we will now demonstrate to you how to fight properly in order to have a chance against opponents like Gin Ichimaru. You have to be fully engaged in the fight with your mind and body." Hisagi explained and got ready to attack Aimi. The young men and women in the units looked at them and were a little bored, expecting Hisagi to win anyway. "But I won't take Hisagi-kun into consideration" grinned Aimi and he was sure that he would defeat her. So he attacked and after a few seconds was lying on his back in the grass. "Never underestimate a woman" smiled Aimi sweetly and the people around her began to make noises full of admiration. Aimi helped Hisagi to her feet, which tried to bring her down. But when he tried that, Aimi made a quick turn and threw Hisagi into the air to attack in the next moment. Hisagi was amazed and barely managed to avoid the attack. Aimi didn't give up, but kept attacking until she suddenly stopped. "Hollows ..." she whispered and ran from the training ground towards the forest. "Aimi-chan!" Hisagi called and looked at Kira and made it clear to him that he should come along.

Aimi ran as fast as she could, the others could hardly keep up. When she got to a hill, she saw a gigantic hollow that seemed very powerful. Aimi got ready for the fight, but then saw gin again, but this time it didn't seem to be an illusion. "Gin ..." she whispered and wasn't sure if he wasn't just a pipe dream this time. "Ah, Aimi-chan ... I should have guessed that you would show up here." he laughed coldly and let a few other hollows appear. "I've changed Gin, I've become stronger and have acquired new strength, I'm in no way inferior to you and could even take on you in the meantime. It's not for nothing that I manage your old screwed-up unit" scoffed Aimi and Gin's grin did not disappear. But that was far from being a reason to be happy, because Gin always grinned, even when he was boiling inside. Aimi attacked one of the Hollows and destroyed it. "Get out of here Gin" ordered Aimi and Gin gave a cold laugh."Hizuki-sama" "Aimi-chan" reached her ear, so she turned around and took her eyes off the gin and the rest of the hollows. Hisagi widened his eyes and Kira couldn't move either, because Gin raised his weapon. Aimi turned back to him and only saw the head of a hollow snap towards her. But before he caught her, she managed to avoid it. In the process, however, she was thrown onto the floor by gin, because she had neglected that.

Aimi pulled herself up and touched her head. She felt a wound and got up. "You leave me no choice, Hisagi ... Kira takes care of the Hollows." she said and picked up her sickle. So she called Nirvana. The sky went dark and a huge white wolf shot out of the gun. Gin dodged and was about to strike back with his gun when Aizen called him back. He was gone now and Aimi was standing there alone, with Hisagi and Kira. "Wow, .... great performance Hizuki-sama." said Kira, even if it had bothered him for a brief moment that it was gin that had appeared. "I'm tired ..." said Aimi and sank into the grass. Shortly afterwards she had closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She dreamed of the forest in which she had always been before, the cherry blossoms fell from the trees and Aimi looked up at the sky. Then there was gin again, but this time not to fight it. "Gin .... please don't go," she whispered in a dream and was then shaken awake by Hisagi. "Aimi-chan .... the best thing to do now is to rest in your room." he smiled and Kira helped his captain to his feet. "Yes, you are right, we can continue training tomorrow." Aimi said and wanted to be aware of why gin kept popping up in her mind.

Aimi was sitting in the garden of the 3rd Division. Several persimmon trees stood around them. She had never gone to the end of the garden because there was really nowhere a cherry tree and that although she had always said how much she liked the cherry blossoms. But she wasn't a commander before either. Aimi thought about it and sighed deeply. "I should finally stop thinking about gin, I'm a captain now and have to take care of my division." she said to herself and leaned back. "You seem very thoughtful Aimi-chan." said Toshirou who sat down next to her. "Are you overwhelmed or is it something else? I mean, not that I would be familiar with such problems, but since you were finally part of my unit, I would like to know what's wrong with you," he said and saw her calmly. "Everything used to be so easy and carefree. At that time I felt so comfortable. When I was little, the world looked a lot nicer," sighed Aimi and thought back to the time.
