Mutsunokami looked around the endless world of white mist, it swirled around his feet and brushed against the edges of his clothes. Huh. This has got to be a dream...right? He thought as he walked around. No place is like this in real life.

He continued walking along but he was too focused on the area around him to be focusing on what's in front of him. He suddenly ran into something or someone and fell over landing right no his butt. He grunted and looked up. "Hey!" He grumbled but he froze as the man before him turned around.

"Ryoma?!" He asked before he could catch himself.

Ryoma smiled and said, "Hey, Mutsunokami."

His jaw dropped as he stayed there not even noticing that a hand was extended to him. "What? You recognize me?!"

"Of course, you are my beloved sword after all." He said as he moved his hand a bit closer. Mutsunokami took his hand and Ryoma helped him up. Once on his feet Mutsunokami looked at him and blinked. The next section of words out of his mouth was an incoherent mess.

"Whoa. Slow down there," Ryoma said. "One sentence at a time."

Mutsunokami blushed sheepishly and said, "Sorry."

Ryoma just waved his hand and put an arm around him. He grinned at him and said, "Kinda strange how you have a human body now. Huh?"

"You know?" Mutsunokami asked surprised.

"Course I know," He replied with a smile.

Mutsunokami's surprise and shock from seeing his former master faded. He turned to him and smiled, "Good. Since I can do this now."

He then hugged Ryoma tightly. After a few moments, he pulled away and Ryoma smiled and asked, "So. How have you been?"

Mutsunokami grinned and sat down with Ryoma. He was not sure how long they talked but he was sure it was for quite a bit of time. He told him all about himself how he uses both a sword and a gun. After that the two both got into a whole conversation about the best foods there are to eat. After that the two then spent quite a bit of time speaking about traveling the world and all the things that there are. Then as the conversation came to a close Mutsunokami found himself talking about his team. About Tsurumaru, Tonbokiri, Yagen, and Horikawa; he even mentioned Izuminokami.

"Well. I am glad you have worthy people to fight beside," Ryoma said.

Mutsunokami smiled half to himself and said, "Yeah."

"So. I guess we have to say goodbye now."

"Huh?" Mutsunokami asked looking at him.

"Well. You do have to wake up at some point." Ryoma pointed out.

"I know but I miss you and now that I am seeing you again. Well again in a place where you know who I am. I do not want to go." He replied.

"Yeah. I know but you need you have a chance to move, you have a chance to see how the world is. You should take it." Ryoma said.

Mutsunokami looked at him and nodded. "Okay. I will."

He stood up with Ryoma and gave him one final hug as the world around him faded away.

Mutsunokami shifted from his bed and sat up. He blinked and brought a hand to his eye and whipped away his tears. Yet, a smile was plastered across his face as he looked across his room to where a small desk was. Above the desk as a map of the world and on the desk was a carved ship he had made.

"Someday. I will. I will go see the world for the both of us." He said softly.
