Ayumu-san,

How are things back at Mibu? Is everyone getting along well? Has much time passed? I know you're still watching over them as well as you always did when you were alive. I wonder if we feel the same things now. I've never felt so lonesome as I do now - knowing what happens, watching the future unfold, and not being able to help them at all.

Is Hijikata-san back there? I wonder if he is... He was here for a short time, but... It does no good to show weakness, but even the strongest man sometimes needs the comfort of a listening ear. Will you do me the favor, even though you're too far for my words to reach?

Did I fail him?

Is that why he left without me?

Did he leave without me?

Am I doubting him only because he has been missing for a day? Am I wrong to think he's gone completely?

I am going to look for him tonight without the Battousai or Homura-san. I can't trust myself around either of them right now. If I were to slip and attempt to kill Kenshin-san, my instincts tell me that Homura-san would dispose of me quickly. I cannot allow myself to disobey Hijikata-san's last-- ...Hijikata-san's command.

We do not strike unless provoked. We do not strike unless provoked.We do not strike unless provoked.
We do not strike unless provoked.We do not strike unless provoked.
We do not strike unless provoked.
We do not strike unless provoked. We do not strike unless provoked.
We do not strike unles----
[There is a large scribble next to the last phrase]

I've met some interesting people here. Captain Jack Harkness is from the future and likes to dance. He's quite the flirt, but it's all in good fun. Kyouya-kun seems to be a good friend of Homura-san's and will undoubtably be of use later.

Several more people seem to know of me and today I met one of them. Hattori Heiji of the Hattori Hanzo clan - interesting fighting style. A little rusty on some bits, but once you get him past using form, he's much like Tetsu-kun. I do hope we get the chance to spar again when the nurse's can't stab us with that needle thing. It's quite annoying.

I also met a young silver-haired man today by the name of Kadaj. He seems to have any number of enemies, but could prove to be of great use if I can stay on his good side. He's one of the few I've met who prefers the killer instinct to the happy-go-lucky. Quite an interesting young man. I hope to speak with him again.

Ayumu-san, if the future is true, when I go home, will I get sick again? I'm having a hard time really organizing my thoughts. I suppose I best end this here.
