Blessed from the Heavens II
Prologue
He closed his eyes and felt the gentle breeze of the western winds flow past him. A smile formed on his lips. He is thankful for the pleasant weather today or else he would have never decided to go to Seireitei Park. It has been five months since Hitsugaya Toshiro, once a guardian of the heavenly afterlife, is given a second chance to live. But that doesn't compare to the time he's going to spend with his girlfriend, Hinamori Momo for the rest of his life. "Oi Shiro-chan!" she called out.
Reopening his emerald-teal eyes, the white haired teenager turned around to see the raven haired girl running to his side. He also noticed Obaa-san not too far behind. The elder gave him a warm smile before she sat on a nearby bench. After replying back with a silent nod, he resumed his attention to the now seventeen year old girl. "So this is where you've been all this time," Momo said. "What are you doing around here anyway?"
"Just thinking," he replied, looking at the sky once more.
Putting her hands behind her back, Hinamori too looked up at the sky. She saw the cotton-like clouds floating by. "Miss being in the heavenly afterlife?"
His eyes soon meet hers. "Sometimes, but I still prefer being here with you."
Wrapping his arms around hers, Momo embraced his neck and pulled him close. "I know Toshiro. I love you."
"I love you too, Momo..."
They closed their eyes as lips are inches away from making contact. However, they couldn't finish it. Momo's cell phone is vibrating. As she pulled the silver coloured portable piece of technology out of her pants pocket, Hitsugaya gave a low scowl. Flipping the phone open, she held it up and aimed the camera lens towards her boyfriend. The white haired teenager knew exactly what is going on. He turned his attention to the sudden presence at his side. "If it's paperwork you're asking me to do, do it yourself Matsumoto," he said.
"What are you talking about taicho?" asked his guardian partner, Matsumoto Rangiku. "Why would I ask you to do it? Besides, that's just plain mean to do to someone who has been given a second chance to live."
"You did it just last week and it is not the first time you did that!"
Placing a finger on the bottom of her chin, the pale golden winged woman gave it some thought before turning her attention to the raven haired girl. "Hinamori-chan, how have you've been doing lately? Taicho, better not upset you in any way."
"You're not even listening!"
"I-I'm fine Rangiku-san," Momo replied. "Hitsugaya-kun hasn't been like that at all."
"Now that's good to hear," Matsumoto said, putting her hands on her hips. "He better stay that way or else I might have to give him a lesson or two in how to make a girl happy."
"Alright, can you please leave now?" Hitsugaya asked.
"Eh, why?"
He gave her an icy glare. Even though he's a living being now, the young prodigy is still able to give off a little bit of his powers. Feeling the cold chill running up her spine, she immediately spread her wings out. "I better get going before taicho starts to freeze me to death. I'm sorry I can't stay longer. Ja ne taicho! I'll see you again soon, Hinamori-chan!"
After giving her a wave of good-bye, the guardian partner soon disappeared from sight. Putting her cell phone away, Momo turned to Hitsugaya. "You didn't have to do that," she said, watching him cross his arms over his chest.
"Don't worry, that wouldn't kill her. She already died once anyway," Hitsugaya replied.
Momo then giggled. Leaning on his shoulder, she rested her head on it. "You're so impatient."
Suddenly, a smirk formed across his face. He faced towards her and leaned towards her with his arms wrapped around her. "I wouldn't say that if I were you; you're practically begging for me."
She smiled. "What are you going to do about it, To-shi-ro?"
"You're going to find out..."
He gave her a long passionate kiss. Things couldn't get any better for these two young lovers. Their happiness, their pride and glory, and the future is right there in front of them. As long as they had each other, nothing can go wrong or so they thought...
"What is this...feeling?"
Toshiro suddenly felt his chest throbbing with pain. Clenching his fist tightly onto his black shirt, he went down to his knees, trying to endure it. He began coughing so much that he couldn't speak. No, he couldn't breathe. He's running out of oxygen in his lungs! The next thing he knew, the child prodigy collapsed onto the bed of grass, helplessly watching Momo's horrified face as his vision became blacked out.
"SHIRO-CHAN!"

Author's Note: Dun dun dun! Damn you AznVKai, how dare you kill Shiro-chan like that?! I'm sure you all are probably saying those words in your minds. xD Sorry, but a fan fiction wouldn't be as exciting if there's no conflict. Anyways, find out what happens in the next chapter. Please review! Thanks.
