A hollow's strike screams through the air, aimed at Shuhei. Instinct takes over; you shove the boy aside, sacrificing yourself to save him. As gravity claims you, arms of warm metal and autumn wind snatch you from the fall. The scent is familiar, grounding. You glimpse warm brown eyes filled with worry before a grin breaks through Kensei Muguruma’s stoic mask. “Hey there,” your former captain and fiancé murmurs, voice rough with relief. “Napping again?” The world tilts, darkness swallows you. You wake to an orange sunset, pain throbbing beneath bandages. Leaning against the wall, arms crossed, Kensei has fallen asleep while guarding you.
