Walking threw the portal I watched as it closed. Before opening my hand seeing a beautiful ring attached to a note.

I sobbed and held it close to my chest before reading the letter.

Dear Zoe

Now that the battle is over I know your portal home will appear anytime so I wanted you to have this ring for the man who will love you, cherish you and adore everything about you.

I am sorry I am not real but the past few months we have spent together has made me realize your the girl my mother told me about when I young. 

She always said I would meet the woman of my dreams and so I did.

Please keep this ring and photo to remember us.

Forever yours

Rengoku Kyojuro

Sobbing even more I held the letter to my chest and looked to the sky seeing the very same star that granted my wish.

Thank you my love....everyone....

Timeskip

Walking down the street I sighed and held the ring attached to the rope around my neck and smiled.

Feeling a tug on my hair I looked down seeing Penelope smiling cheekily at me and babbling in my arms.

I giggled and kissed her forehead before sighing and looked ahead of me. Its been a month since I came back turns out the months I spent there was barely a day here.

My family didn't know any of it. I almost forget about it but looking at the little faded scars on my body reminded me every day.

Walking into the museum I stared at the display for the Tashio area as my sister stared the photo of the Hashira.

Lauren: Zoe that girl there she looks like you who is she

Me: "snickers" that would be the Heaven Hashira before and after the finale war I look good don't I?

Seeing my sword and Haori I smiled sadly and looked at the photo again.

Me: I miss you guys so much

Feeling a hand on my shoulder I thought it was Lauren and turned.

Before seeing bright brown and reddish eyes staring back at me as his long fluffy blond hair with red tips swayed softly.

Rengoku: miss me my love?

I froze as tears spilled down my face and in a blink of an eye I tackled the male to the ground and hugged him tightly as he held my shaking form.

Me: KYOJURO?! HOW?!

He chuckled helping me up and held my face with his large warm hands.

Rengoku: yes my love it seems recantation was timed for you

Without a second thought I kissed him passionately and held him tightly afraid to let go. Pulling away for air he kissed my cheek.

Before taking the ring from my neck and bending down on one knee making me gasp.

Rengoku: Zoe Hudson would you do me the honor of becoming my wife and marry me?

Me: "sobs" YES A MILLION TIMES YES!

Life was looking good at the moment......
