Kurisa looked at Rio as she apologized and told him that she'd like to stay in his Squad, this made him nod as he then spoke "I'd gladly keep you in this Squad Rio...but Rio..in letting you fall behind I have failed as a Captain. I shouldn't have allowed this to happen so I am as much to blame here...I am certain you will now. Now go rest...tomorrow there will be a mission for you...you are dismissed" Kurisa closed his eyes then waited till Rio left...he wanted her to rest and relax

[u]Rio Okotaru Darishimo[/u]

Rio closed her eyes and listened to the Captain, waiting until he finished talking before opening them and looking the Captain in the eye. A smile lit up her face, it had been a while since she had properly smile like that... [b]"Thank you Captain, I won't let you down again"[/b] She bowed to him deeply and then left after being dismissed. She thought that the Captain was going to turn her away and transfer her on the spot for her behaviour... Looks like he wasn't as cold as she thought... She felt ashamed for thinking of her Captain in such a way, he was still the great man she admired and always will which was why it was a dream come true when he accepted her into his squad, she wasn't going to disappoint him again. The memory of the only time she had witnessed him smile emerged inside her thoughts. [i]'Awww, that smile.. Gosh, so much has changed about me, I don't like it'[/i] Rio continued to walk out the barracks. [i]'Now for more important matters! Viole wanted to see me... I can even think of why he would, might as well find out'[/i] She strolled casually towards squad four, leaving Henry and Sango to continue whatever the hell they were doing alone.
