I'm going out for a couple of hours.

I'll be back soon.

You mean he would have killed just anyone who happened to be there?

That's who he is.

[Quietly.]

How long did he stay here?

I don't know.

[And she refuses to have her ask Hitsugaya.]

He never came back to life after he was killed.

But I thought... all people who died here came back. [She pales. So she'd been right. Horst could never have come back.]

The one who killed him, was it Hitsugaya?

Sometimes the price is to be returned to your own world.

[She pauses, then.]

No.

[It was Ulquiorra Cifer and Urahara Kisuke. Without them, Hitsugaya would have been added to the list of the dead.]

That's news to me. [Though whether good or bad she cannot say.]

...who did it? I must have been another shinigami, right?

[Good in that Hitsugaya isn't dead. Bad in that he didn't get his revenge. Again.]

Urahara Kisuke and Ulquiorra Cifer.

Mr Urahara... Is he a shinigami captain too? [Because it's less than obvious when you look at him.]

Don't take this wrong, I don't have anything against him, but... I wonder why Ulquiorra decided to side with the shinigami instead of siding with an ennemy of theirs. Isn't he... a hollow?

I don't know what Urahara is. [Which is the truth -- Rei has no idea of his history.] And as for Ulquiorra, not everything is so black and white.

I don't know any of them very well but... Actions speak louder than words as far as I'm concerned. So I won't judge Ulquiorra based on what he is.

I would be dead without Ulquiorra.

[Very simply and to the point. Rei will defend him to the grave.]

And he won't judge you, either.

...You mean he saved you again since that time. [Because this is kinda confusing, Rei.]

Ah. [Thanks for reminding her that you always see her demon half first when you see her.] I'll have to get to know him better before he can decide about that anyway.

Ulquiorra was with me when we went into the Inner City. I would be dead without him. I trust him with my life, regardless of what he is.

[Rei doesn't judge anyone upon seeing them, but it's a healthy reminder that Raven is in no place to judge Ulquiorra based on what he is when Raven, Rei assumes, has the same exact problem he does.]

And he won't. He holds pretty much the same opinion of everyone when you first meet him unless you prove otherwise.

[aka most people aren't really worth it.]

You don't have to give me reasons for trusting him. [Somehow it's enough for her to know that you do.]

[She doesn't need that kind of reminders. Because she never judges people on appearances. That said she knows very well that even if you can try to fight your nature, you can't help what you are. She's a half-demon and he's a hollow. They can try to do what's right, there will always be a dark side to them. And Raven is truly disgusted by that demon side of her, that's all.]

You're very protective of your friends. ...I am too.

They're very protective of me, too.

[Hitsugaya watches her energy wherever she goes. The senshi are fiercely protective of one another. Al is always there to give her advice.]

Well it is supposed to work both ways, hmm?

[Which reminds her...]

I should go now. Alice's waiting for me.

Right.

[A pause.]

Thank you.

[She nods at Rei's thanks.] You're welcome.

[And then she turns away and takes off.]
