After Talon had his moment, they both, Serene Jewel and Talon, decided to let me call them whenever I feel like calling them, I fell asleep peacefully that night because I got everyone back, Serene Jewel casted Calm Mind on me and I fell asleep like it was easy, it really was because Onyx turned into his little black cat form and slept with me. The next morning, I still felt unwanted here because of how Ichigo has been acting towards me, I'm just gonna wait until he was nowhere in sight because I'm going to be moving places, this can't continue on with what is going on with inside of my mind. So I got my suitcase ready, got out all of my clothing together and started to pack up everything in this room, I even took down the 15 number, means I need a place to live where I can have the freedom of doing anything I want. I messaged Mugetsu that I am coming to the cottage, and I never got a response for a while, then I heard Ichigo ask someone, "What are you doing here?" "None of your business," said Mugetsu, "Now move!" Then he entered the house when Orihime greeted him, "She's just upstairs." "How did you know that I was here for her?" I heard him ask. Orihime responded, "She's been depressed ever since she got back from somewhere, she's needs to be surrounded by the people she trusts now." Then Mugetsu entered the room saying, "I almost got lost because it was easy to find this room." "Yeah, I'm moving out of here," I said, "I can't take it anymore."

It took like a few trips to get back to the cottage but it was worth it, I needed to escape from that cage, I need to find on where I can find my own path and hopefully have a healthy mental state because with Ichigo being a father and trying to be a cousin towards was not helping my case. Esperanza is explaining on what is going on with me to Orihime, Renji, and Rukia, basically she told everyone but Ichigo, Aunt Levy came to me, "How are you holding up?" "Feel much better now that I'm away from the city," I said, "But I will go back when I get this situated." "Good luck, you really need this," said Levy. I nodded knowing that this is going to be a one hell of a rollar coaster that I'm on, I'm ready for what is up ahead for me, just as long as I can visit Ichigo from time to time. I looked to where the fight of Aizen, myself, and Ichigo took place, it brought back memories to where I was always needed, I was always fighting alongside Ichigo without him saying that I can't cast anything until he makes the first move. Man, I missed those times, now I'm feeling like a burden to him, not to Orihime and Kazui, just him, only because I wanted to spend some time with him and he said that he's got other stuff to do. It really was starting to make me think if I was the reason for him acting like he is was because I did the big sacrifice for the sake of saving the Elemental Realm, if that's the reason then he will never see me ever again until he apologizes to me in person.

At the cottage, I felt happy and calm because I was hearing so many stories from Dakota, Mugetsu, Volaris, Sana, Momoko, Velvet, basically everyone that is apart of my gang has their own room in this cottage. I was laughing because I was hearing the story of when I pulled the hair extensions of Mugetsu Shiba, yeah, he felt left out because he has only one name and that was just Mugetsu, I kept calling him Shirosaki because I didn't want to leave out Hichigo. Alex legally changed his name back to what he was originally called Ulquiorra, which is great on my part because that was the reason why he changed his name. Volaris asked him, "So, Ulquiorra, what power do you have?" "Chaos," he said, bluntly. I was expected him to say it like that because it was what I was used to hearing in public, I couldn't help but giggle at the comment, Ulquiorra looked at me then softly smiled, I'm glad that I found my own atmosphere but everyone must respect my alone time, so I stepped outside, Velvet stopped Ulquiorra from following me because I really needed to be alone to recharge myself before going back. I started to train with my metal suit of Iron and my Vibrainum Shield, as I threw my shield, someone's hand caught it, I looked to who it was, "What are you doing here?" "I just came to see on how you were doing," said Ichigo.

I just stood there not knowing on what reason it was for him to be here and ruining my alone time, so I told him, "I never liked anyone who interrupts my alone time, you know this, so what ever reason you came here will have to wait because I can't bother to hear or look at you the way you've been acting towards me ever since I found love again, let me get this through that cinder block head of your's, I am your cousin, not your daughter or a servant to you, I am a part of your family so in that case do respect on what I have and support on what I am about to do, you can't lock me up forever I will find a way to escape and you are not going to stop me to achieve on what I was set out to do." "I agree," he said. It hadn't synced into me yet, so I continued, "And also! Wait, what did you say?" "I agree with you," said Ichigo, "I've acting like a total jerk!" "Total? More like dictating everything," I said. Ichigo agrees once again, "Again I agree, I'm so sorry for doing that to you, I've been trying to get over the fact that this was real and I read that note, when I walked into the room that's when I lost it. Akari, I cried when I saw that the room was empty." "Yeah thank Butterfly for making me do that," I said, "Don't ever say that keeping the portal and realm safe was blocking you from continue fighting for what's right." "Something's telling me to say exactly that," Ichigo said, "When I came here, Hichigo told me that you did what you had to do because something is keeping us apart." That scared me, something else is inside of Ichigo, could it be my own story taking place?

I hear inside of my mind, "Lady Akari, it's your inner Hollow talking to you. All you need to know that my evil sister is inside of him and she is not there only because of where the cottage is located. You both need to stay here until she is taken care of." "How do we get her out?" I asked. She responds, "We'll weigh it out." Before Ichigo left, I told him, "Ichigo, don't leave just yet, there's something that you need to know now and it's best to stay while you still can." I grabbed him by the wrist, I called out Esperanza and Velvet over, basically I called everyone to hear what was told by me, "Guys, someting is inside of Ichigo and it is not his own hollow, I was told by MY own hollow that her evil sister is the one who has been making him act like this." That got Ichigo's attention, my hollow was hidden away when my memory was obscured by Butterfly, her sister is out in the world somewhere now, no longer inside of Ichigo because he's in a safe place that makes her go away from him.

We need to get him away from her as soon as possible, which is why Velvet gave Ichigo a luck bracelet to prevent her coming to him, he accepted it because we are elementals and we are defending the ones we love and Ichigo is one out of many loved ones that I care too much for. Velvet tells him, "Do not take it off ever, that includes going to bed to sleep for the night, you won't even feel that it is there." "I don't feel it at all," said Ichigo, "It's actually extremely comfortable." "Until this situation is over, I'm afraid that you, Orihime, and Kazui are in danger of this entity," said Volaris, "It would probably be best if you guys stay until the coast is clear." "I agree, I can't imagine a world without you, Ichigo," I said to him, "We are going to find a way to solve this situation." "I'm going to help in any way I can," said Ichigo, "This can't keep happening." "Here's the thing, you are not an elemental," said Sana, "This is a battle between elements, you are not one." "But, Mugetsu, my hollow, and Dangai are a part of me," Ichigo said. Dakota then said, "We were a part of you, we have our own lives." "Still, though, we came from him," said Hichigo, "I'm actually surprised that I am here of all people." "It's because you were chosen to be a part of this realm that has yet to be completed," said Esperanza, "Not to mention, you were trusted by Akari, that is all it takes for it to happen."

So, I helped Ichigo, Orihime, and Kazui over to the cottage so they could stay there until this is done and they are no longer in harms way. Well, Esperanza was helping them, I was bunking Alex with me, because I was told that he may be the next target of being in danger, I wasn't having that, I helped him get into the portal so he could lend the realm a fraction of his power, then he got an ultimate power boost, he looks at me, "Can you call me Ulquiorra from now on?" "Huh, why did you ask that?" I asked him. He gives me a look that I have been fighting the urge, I gave in, "Alright you got me, I have been wanting you say your previous name for so long." "Well, can I say something about now that I know what is like to feel emotions," he said, "It's very extreme feel to have." "You got use to it right?" I asked. He nods, "Oh yeah, over time I got use to it, but I didn't feel love again until I saw you on that stage singing the song that was being played."
