[Yuuki hadn't been here for long, but the moment she had stepped put of the Bay into the city, she had seen the damage that had occurred to this place and people who were just trying to tidy up and rebuild what was lost. It wasn't long before she used the device looking quite concerned.]

What... happened here to cause such damage? [She looked over her shoulder slightly as she soon nodded.] I'll be over in a second... Ah, I think I might need some help carrying that. [She turns her focus back towards the device.]

Anyway, I'm Yuuki Cross, I was part of the disciplinary committee back home, but I don't think that is something that works here. [Considering her job with that was to keep the Night Classes secret, she doesn't think that applies here.]

Ah, I offered to help clean up, but I can't help them carry rubble the sizes they are trying to get me to carry, so if you want to help I'll be happy for it. [She gives a small smile before switching off. Back to attempting to be nice and help out.]

Oh... I would have never thought of it that way before. [Not that she would have problems with death in the first place as she knows it can happen to anyone at just about any time.]

So it's a cycle huh? But I never understood what happens to souls when they die? I mean they leave so new souls can enter, but what about the souls that have gone, do they go around eventually, or something?

Yes. They can be reborn as well. Some that choose to return for rebirth are given the chance to live again. Those that wish to stay, remain with me and become the energy for new souls to be born. The memories of the past go with them.

[He takes a step to the side and lifts his gaze to the sky.]

They are a part of another. Have you ever wondered why someone feels familiar to you when you have never met them before?

[Yuuki was quietly listening. It was quite an interesting thing she was learning about and it was something she was going to try and remember in the future. Though it did make her think of a question.]

I can't say I really did, but then again I've never really paid that much attention. But is that the same feeling you might get if you have forgotten your past from a certain age?

[He nods once.]

Yes. The soul is reborn in a new body yet the memories are latent. There is reason for this. Some souls have no memory of their past buried deep since they are wiped clean of their past lives.

This is a choice they make to atone for their transgressions before they can be born anew. Some contain their past memories and locked away until the time comes that they are able to remember again who they were.

It can be compared to spiritual amnesia. They chose upon their death what they wish to do. The term "old soul" is true. Think of it not as reincarnation but a rebirth. Death is only final to the body, but never the soul.

Oh, wow.

[She would have never thought of it this way at all, but now that it had been said it has given her a lot to think about at least for the next few days at best. She shakes her head slightly, she knew she shouldn't have been stopping just to talk, she wanted to help and she knew she probably should now.]

It was nice talking to you, but I am going to go and check who else needs help.

Very well.

[He wastes no more of her time and steps toward the far side of the clearing. He closes his eyes then casts his face toward the sky with a calm expression. Many times in his past he gave his silent thanks to the world but this place seems strange. He lowers his head and lifts his hand and vanishes.]
