Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or its characters.


"Is she ok?"

"There is too much blood"

"Her face is severely damaged, what do we do?"

"Get the other doctor!"

"Get the scalpel!"

"The monitor is going flat! Get the pad! Turn it up to 120!"

An electric shock ran through the girl's body.

"It's still flat! Do it again!"

The monitor then started to beep once more. The doctor sighed.

"She is safe for now, is he here?" he asked worryingly.

All of a sudden, the door burst open. A fairly tall man with a large white coat walked. He surveyed the room and smiled. He walked towards the doctor and the girl's body on the bed. He looked down at her. she was bleeding all over her body and had burns all over as well. Just by looking at her, he could tell that lots of her bones were broken. The man looked at the girl's face. Burns and deep wounds covered half her face. And her eye.

"Damn, her eye." The man thought.

He turned and looked at the doctor who operated on her. He smirked.

"Now now. You all summoned me when I was in the middle of an important episode of "When the Tides Turn"! Ezra was about to tell Kai hat he loved her!" the man said.

The doctor looked at the man like he was crazy. The other doctors and nurses were all slightly looking at each other.

The main doctor continued to throw a look at the man, "Well we apologize for interrupting your important TV show, but as you can tell there is a little girl dying on that table! We needed your help!"

The man stared at the doctor and sighed, "There isn't much I can do. She is far too injured to do anything. Even if we do surgery, there is too much damage to have- what's her name?"

The main doctor looked over at the girl's chart, "Orihime Inoue."

The man continued, "Right, Orihime. Well there is too much damage to Orihime recover. She will die soon."

At that moment, a small whimper was heard throughout the room. The auburn, burnt orange haired girl was starting to open her eyes. They were brown, but the whites of her eyes were bloodshot. Her eyes were dull, as if she was trying to wake up from a never ending nightmare. She turned her head slightly towards the man in the white coat. Her dull eyes shed tears.

"Please," she whispered hoarsely, " Please, save me. I promised him that I would live." Then she passed out, and the heart monitor went flat once more.

All the doctors and the nurses flocked to help the girl.

"Start charging!"

One if the female doctors turned and looked at the man. "Do something!" she said angrily.

The man smirked a bit and sighed. He went over to Orihime's bed and yanked out all the equipment tied to her. Everyone in the room went into to shock. One of the doctors was close to punching him.

"You are going to kill her" he yelled. The man paid them no mind as he wheeled the girl out of the room.

"Someone stop him!" someone yelled.

Security just watched the man walk out with Orihime and didn't try to stop him. The main doctor ran up to the security and demanded answers.

"He was given the permission to take her before even being asked to come. We have the note and email from the higher ups. There is nothing we can do except hope the girl doesn't die." One of the security guys said.

Another security guard nodded in agreement. "We also can't talk about the girl or him in the media. All stories of her won't get out, and none of us are suppose to talk about what happened tonight. If we do, the bosses will sue you most likely."

The main doctor's eyes widened as he growled in frustration.

"You crazy dumbass, take care of her."

The man seemed to hear the main doctor's thoughts. He turned around and gave a flashy smirk. The main doctor watched as the man took Orihime out of the hospital. Anyway and never heard from again.


7 years later

An auburn haired teen was seen sitting in the office of an older man. She was wearing a white button up with picture of a rose on the pocket. She also was wearing dark blue jeans and some tan ankle boots. As she sat down, her bright brown eyes wandered around the room. She heard the older man clear his throat. She focused her attention on him and the paper in his hand.

"I am glad you will joining Karakura High School, . I have been looking through your file. Are sure you will be ok living on your own? I read what happened with your brother, I'm sorry about what happened." the principal said.

Orihime gave a small smile. She didn't mind talking about her brother. It brought her happy memories and filled her heart with warmth. However, talking about the incident was a whole other thing.

"It is fine, but I can't wait to start tomorrow! It will be my first time in high school. I'm kinda bummed out that it is my last year though. Maybe I would join lots of clubs. Do they have a baking club here!?" Orihime started to ramble on, hinting here nervousness. "Um I'm sorry sir! I am going to be fine!" she said with a nervous laugh. She rubbed the back of her head.

The principal nodded towards her. He handed her back her file and gave her a smile.

"You start bright and early tomorrow . You can get your uniform after you leave the office. We are glad you are here!" The principal said.

Orihime bowed and wave the principal goodbye. As she walked down her new school's hallway, Orihime was in bliss. This was the start of a whole new life. She hasn't been to an actual since the incident. Orihime then grimaced.

"No time thinking about something so depressing. Let's think about my first day of High School tomorrow!" She thought. Orihime then did a little twirl as she skipped happily towards the uniform office.

She was deep into her thoughts when her cellphone started to ring. Orihime looked down at the screen and smiled when she saw who it was. Happily, she swiped the green answer sign and brought the phone to her ear.

"Well, well, well. I thought you wouldn't pick up! I thought you would have been busy with school and all." the voice on the other end said. Orihime smiled.

"I just finished up with the principal. I am on my way to get my uniform now! I am excited!" she said happily.

The voice on the other end sighed, "I am happy for you Orihime, but you know, after today, you can't contact me as much right?"

Orihime then gave a frown. Of course she knew this. This is why she didn't start high school at 15. She would have to leave him and start living by herself. That would be difficult due to her condition.

"I can practically hear your frowning Orihime. Cheer up kid! You are growing up! Time for you to venture out and explore. Maybe even find a cute boyfriend and settle down!" the voice chuckled.

"Wha!? W-wait! Mr.U-" Orihime stuttered. The voice on the other end started to howl with laughter.

"I am messing with you Orihime! What did I tell you about calling me Mr.? It's doctor to you." The voice said. "After all, who saved your life?"

Orihime laughed. He did save her life all those years ago. She would be forever thankful, no matter what happens to her.

"You did. But, thank you Doc! Oh, I see the uniform office! I guess this is goodbye." Orihime said sadly.

"You will be fine. Just remember to don't stay in water too long. Goodbye... for now." the voice replied.

Orihime smiled and hung up the phone. She stared at her phone for the long time. Her brown eyes started to swell with tears, so Orihime quickly wiped her eyes. She wouldn't let anyone see her like this. This was a new life for her, and she was scared. Yet, she was excited as hell. Orihime skipped towards the office to finally get her uniform and to start her new beginning.


The doctor stared at his phone. Orihime's picture stayed on the screen for one second more. The doctor sighed and turned around in his chair. He ran his hand through his blond hair and sighed.

"Shit." he mumbled.

He closed his eyes and was put into deep thoughts. It wasn't that he didn't trust the girl. Oh no, it's the exact opposite. He knew Orihime would be ok. She could protect herself. It was who she was going to have to protect herself from was what he was worried about.

Suddenly, a tall man with tan skin and a mustache came into the room. The doctor opened his eyes and looked at the man.

"Hey Tessai! How's it hanging? Did my show come on yet? "When the Tides Turns" is having a big season finale. Spoiler alert, Ezra finds out that Kai had a kid with Romeo." The blond haired doctor said excitedly.

Tessai shook his head, " , are you sure it's ok for Orihime to go out?"

Kisuke Urahara's happy expression turned slightly dark. "Straight into business I see. Alright, no reason to be dodgy. No, I'm positive it isn't ok for her to go alone. That doesn't mean it isn't time for her to though."

Tessai looked at Urahara wry, "Are you not worried about the Soul Society? What will you do if they find about Orihime or the project? Or worse! What if-"

"Tessai," Urahara interrupted, "Calm down would ya? I thought of everything, so don't worry for now. I trust Orihime, she won't reveal anything... yet"

Tessai's eyes widened, "What do you mean by "yet"?"

Urahara shook his head and smiled. He grabbed his green and white stripped bucket hat and placed it on his head. He looked directly into Tessai's eyes.

"Nothing you need to worry about at the moment. Now, let's watch my show!"

Urahara walked out he room leaving a stunned Tessai. What Tessai didn't see was the dark look starting to form on Urahara's face. He was thinking about the future and he knew what was starting to happen.

"This is dangerous and a complete gamble even for me. What ever happens now changes everything. For me, for Tessai, for the project, and definitely Orihime. Looks like a hell of a war is gonna happen soon."


Orihime lied in her bed at her new apartment. Urahara helped pay for it, but he cut her off after that.

"It will be too dangerous, don't you think? I am not really suppose to be "here", so I can't buy you anything anymore. Don't think I left you out to dry though. I found an old aunt of yours who will be willing to help with support. I told her you stayed with a "special" foster home for kids, and she bought it full heartedly."

Orihime stared at her bare ceiling, maybe she would hang up some fairy lights. Orihime's eyes started to shine in the dark as she started to dream about her new room design. Sleep started to overpower the auburn haired teen. Orihime then reached to the side of her headboard. She searched around until she found a switch. Orihime flipped it, and then her bed started to glow a dim blue light. Orihime sighed in relaxation and as bundled up herself in her covers.

Her eyelids grew heavy, and they shut.


A/N: Well I hoped everyone like the first chapter of the Rikka series. I planned to do about 3 of them, Rikka: Project Omega being Book 1. Maybe 20 chapters each for each series. I haven't fully decided. As you can tell, this will be an Orihime centric fanfic. Though, don't worry readers! ichihime wlll shine through greatly! ( I'm a hopeless romantic who needs to see them in my fic). So I hope you all stick around to read the "Rikka" series!
