A Visit from a Mummy

Koyo hadn't been to see Asami-sensei in some time. His features were different as his hair hung through bandages. They were wrapped around his head in a way covering one eye and his nose. His duel with Elyss had left him beaten and battered. However, he'd learned a lesson about his weakness. In his arms which also had bandages on them, were bento boxes. He'd made the food himself through care and great skill. Koyo had always enjoyed cooking since he could put his focus on it.

He came towards the barracks, getting some looks; some here had heard about it. Elyss had pummeled the former Shino Academy student. His face had been healing up nicely and wouldn't have scars. The doctors asked him to keep it on for a short period of time. That period was a few more days, they told him, despite Kaido healing. His hands ached yet from his mother's finger exercises she'd given him. It was a phantom pain that didn't leave him.

As he came into the barracks, he went to Asami-sensei and saw how she'd been. "Greetings Asami-sensei, I brought lunch for a break." As always, his voice held a monotone nature to it. Koyo didn't express his emotions to anyone, even his mother. Fear was the only emotion he knew well enough to describe. His mother told him that someone like him shouldn't display emotion. They needed to be cold and unreadable; that was the perfect Kuchiki.

He'd not seen her in a while, and it was strange to see her through one eye. But he did promise to bring her food. He'd sent a letter of ahead him to be sure she was alright with it. Koyo's expressionless face formed a small hard to see the smile.
