• [facing the released blade of the Soukyoku, "Ki-Kou-Ou", a large fire-bird, before it performs the execution; thinking, calmly] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : I am not afraid. I had a good life.

  [the screen shows her memories as she thinks about each person] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Meeting Renji and the others... taken in by Nii-sama... led by Kaien-dono... and... being saved by Ichigo.

  [pause; now we see her w/ eyes closed & head bowed] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : I am not in pain. I am not sad. I have no regrets.

  [looks up at Ki-Kou-Ou] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : And my heart... is not burdened.

  [seeing the eyes open wide] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Thank you.

  [mind-voice quieter w/ each 'thanks' she 'speaks'; we see a flash of Ukitake's group] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Thank you.

  [a flash of Orihime, Uryu, 'Chad' & Ganju] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Thank you.

  [Byakuya standing on the side by the Soukyoku, not looking at anything] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Thank You.

  [& an image of Ichigo, facing away wearing his old Soul Slayer's scabbard, completely still except for his hair & robes blowing in the wind; finally we see Rukia's face; despite her peace of mind, she cannot stop the tears coming to her eyes; she blinks & they run down her cheeks; speaking out loud] 

  Kuchiki Rukia : Good-bye.
