Author's Note: I'm still working on getting my thoughts down on the computer. But I think I like this one better than all my others, and if I get enough reviews, I have a second chapter in mind…
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Zangetsu knew Ichigo better than Ichigo knew Ichigo.
So why when that mysterious girl showed up in his world did he not know what was going on inside Ichigo?
He never let anyone in since his mother had passed away. So why did this girl just waltz in?
She had raven black hair and piercing blue eyes along with her small stature and she always just walked in silently. Not once did she ever speak to Zangetsu.
He didn't notice her the first time she came in. He was staring into a rare beautiful sunset when he noticed her standing next to him. Somehow, he wasn't surprised. He had been watching Ichigo's reactions to her and had a feeling that she was something different from his other friends. He almost expected her in from the start. They stood in complete silence watching the sunset for a while longer.
Zangetsu was finding it easier with her presence around. Every time he felt that he needed to fight, she would be there, silently cheering him on. With her spirit almost always there, he felt he could fight battles against a million men…at the same time. She made him stronger with some kind of unseen force.
Then one day, she was taken away.
Ichigo was fighting for her. Fighting to get her back, that much Zangetsu was sure of. But without her in his world, the battle was hard. And not being able to actively speak to Ichigo wasn't helping much either.
In his world, the skies turned dark and foreboding. Rain began to fall. Cold, dark, heavy rain. The fight was over. Zangetsu was too weak to fight for Ichigo any longer. And that mysterious yet beautiful black haired girl was gone.
The rain continued to fall…
