Jade slid into the safehouse and slipped a folded up note onto the counter top and quickly left before Gabe could notice anyone was there.

There was a fresh blueberry muffin beside it.
This is what it read:

"Dear Gabe,
What's new? ... Uh... that's a horrible way to start a letter.
Well... I guess I'll just get to the point.
I'm oh so very proud of you. You strengthened you body and mind. To strengthen your mind proves real power, because without enlightenment comes a downfall. Remember that.
Be careful. I know you have new swords and new powers... but don't let it go to your head. Or worse, take over you. I beg for the love of God, be careful.
Just know I'm proud of you, okay? You have now become all that you've wanted.

Kisses
- Jadey"

He saw the letter.It touched him,he taked it to his wall, he wasnt going to let soething like what happened so long ago happen twie, he was going to make damned sure. He walked over to the wall where he had his Bankai mounted and grabbed it. He always made oaths about things..and this one was no oath but a debt sworn in blood. He cut his arm and let it drip onto his blade the final bit of the blood oath was done, he wrapped it up and sheathed the blade and tied the sheath to his belt,he got all of his gear and headed out.

But little did anyone else know he sent Jade back a letter

"Dear Jade,
Things have changed in me I would assume but.
Thanks for the speech.I will never let something like what happened several months ago or when I killed my dad happen again.I wont let the powers of the Bankai take over, Im strogner, no Im better than that. And as you said I have come to far to let myself give up now and I thank you again ffor all you have been able to help me with.....And from all my training..That wasnt the real thing that got me stronger...It was my drive to help my friends is what did it.....
....But as you said I am now what I always wanted....
