The Consequences: By Death By Dawn
Prologue- Before the End
*Disclamier: I don't own Bleach or any of its characters. If I did Toshiro would be the main character and Rukia would have been killed off by know.*
Ichigo's P.O.V.
You know, its funny. I always thought that there was some sort of god looking down on me and protecting me. I had a good family, a sheltered childhood, and wonderful siblings. I was so blessed.
To think, I never thanked any of the generous people around me for staying by my side, and putting up with my bullshit. I never thought twice of kicking Dad in the face when he tried to hug me. I never told Karin and Yuzu how much I love them. I never thought to smile back at Orihime when she greeted me in the morning at school. I never hung out with Ishida just to be around him. Chad and I have always been close, but we never talked about our dreams for the future.
It looks like now I'll never be able to talk to them, any of my loved ones, ever again. I screwed up big this time, and I don't know if I'll be able to fix things. It's already too late for my family. They're dead forever, never to be reincarnated. My friends have abandoned me long ago and they're never looking back.
You know, I could have prevented all of this heartbreak if I had just stayed home that fateful Sunday night, all those years ago. I would never have broken Orihime's heart, or stabbed Chad in the back, or even pushed Ishida into a corner when he needed me most. My dad never would have become a drunkard, and Yuzu and Karin wouldn't have died while being driven home by his drunken ass...
All of these thoughts come to mind as I watch the snow fall from the wintry sky, reminding me of that night. That godforsaken Sunday night when everything went down hill for me.
Back when all I had to worry about was getting good grades. Back when there was no such things as shinigami or hollows, or menos. When I laughed with friends at lunch and hung out with my family at home.
I miss those days, but I'll never experience them again. God, fate, destiny; whatever the fuck you wanna call it, made that very clear.
A.N.- Hey guys! This is the first fanfic I've posted on the net so I'm really nervous. If you have any opinions, please don't hesitate to comment them. I don't know where this story is going yet, but it's gonna be a shonen-ai. Nothing too graphic, but this story will contain some smut and lots of angsty drama as well. If you don't like it, don't read it. Flamers be warned. Please R&R! ^.^
