Hi everybody, I am new and this is my first story on here. So take it easy on me. o_o

I do not own Bleach nor it's characters. I only own Aislinn and the ones I make up along the way.

Her parents had died in an accident. All alone now, Aislinn is the new student at Karakura High. But it wasn't an ordinary accident. Plagued by nightmare and images, things her mind is trying to remember. What happens when she meets our favorite strawberry? Will Ichigo be able to help her? Or will she help him in the end? And what is going to happen when a dark presence appears? Ichigo x OC

I got off the plane and took a look around Tokyo International Airport. I was transfering schools after my parents' accident. I had always wanted to go to school in Japan and with my parents gone and no other family or friends to really speak of, I decided now was the time. I headed toward luggage, grabbed my bags and walked outside into the warm sun of Tokyo, Japan.

"Taxi!" I hailed for a taxi and threw my bags into the cab.

"Where to darlin'?" A very nice looking middle aged man asked through the rearview mirror.

"Umm, Karakura please." I turned and looked out the window as the beautiful scenery of Japan passed by. I dug through my bag till I found my iPod and was about to hit play when the taxi driver started talking to me.

"Your from the states right?" He looked at me in the rearview with a smile.

"Yeah, I'm from Pennsylvania. I am really excited to be here." I told him with a smile as we passed beautiful homes, top end buisinesses and hundreds of people walking to their chosen destinations. They were walking with a purpose I admired.

"If you don't mind me asking, what brings you around here?"

"Ummm..." The subject of my parents was still a sore subject for me. We weren't the perfect family. My dad was a violent, for lack of a better term, man. My mother had been my best friend and despite all the fighting I knew they loved eachother and me.

"Ohh, I am sorry if I have offended you in anyway. Just as a taxi driver I am a very curious man."

"No, no, no... That's ok. Ummm... My parents got into an accident which left me with no one so when it came to the court hearings I basically emancipated myself from the state and came her to finish my schooling. I always wanted to go to school in Japan, so here I am."

The taxi driver looked at me with a sypathetic look and nodded.

"Are you going to be ok?" He handed me a tissue from the glove box and handed it to me. I hadn't even realized I had a few tears rolling down my cheeks.

"Yeah, I have always been a fairly independant person and my parents had already been building up an account for me and now with their accounts, I could live comfortably and get through college with little to no problem." I took a huge swig out of my water bottle and put the window down a little bit for some fresh air.

"Good for you. Seems like you got a good head on your shoulders. Very mature. Now where did you want to go?" I hadn't realized we were in Karakura already. Then something caught my eye. A little girl. But something was off about her, for she had a chain hanging from her chest. I knew then that this little girl was a spirit. I knew ever scince I was little that I could see spirits but never told anyone. Nobody would believe me anyway. I snapped back to attention when I realized the driver had asked me a question.

"Ohh, uh... 1125... Akamura Ave." I read off of the ticket for my house which I had bought after weeks of searching the internet. A simple two story home down the road from a river and within walking distance of the highschool.

"Really? You are going to be across from the Kurosaki Clinic."

"Kurosaki Clinic?" I looked at him as her turned onto my road.

"It's a medical clinic run by Isshin Kurosaki and his family. Great people, it's just a shame what happened?" I looked at him curiously, not understanding what he meant.

"Umm, what happened?"

"Isshin's wife, the mother of his son and twin daughters died in a horrible accident about ten years ago." My mind instantly flashed to my parents and I hung my head in sadness.

My heart went out to the Kurosaki family. "We're here." He pulled over right in front of my home. "What's your name by the way?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. My name is Aislinn but people usually call me Ash. And thank you so much for everything." I grabbed my bags with his help and put them up on the porch. He held out his hand which I shook.

"My name is Yuki and you are very welcome. If you need anything and I can be of service, all you need is call and ask for me." He handed me a card with his company and name on it, which I took gratefully.

"Thank you Yuki, I appreciate it very much." He smiled with a nod as he got back in his cab.

"It was a pleasure meeting you Ash. Take it easy." He pulled out and headed back down the street. I walked up to the porch grabbed my keys out of my purse and unlocked the door. I smiled as I saw that it had been decorated to my liking. The entrance hallway was simple with a little table and key rack to the left and a place for umbrellas to the right. I took off my shoes before the step up into the rest of the home. I dropped my bags in the living room which was furnished with a beautiful, huge cream colored sectional couch and glass coffee table. Against the wall was a huge entertainment stand with flat screen tv, dvd player and surround system. I grabbed the bag with my PS2 and PS3 in it and set it by the tv.

"I will set that up later." The walls in the living room were a soft mint green and gorgeous chocolate brown trim with an elegant floral design. Matching curtains hung over the glass sliding doors that led out to the backyard. I walked into the kitchen which was simply set up. The only extra was the magnificent island I had built in the middle of the kitched with the stools I had picked out. I decided to take the rest of my bags to my room. I just set them down when my cell rings. I pull it out of my pocket.

"Moshi moshi?"

"Ohayo, Evans-San?" I smiled when I realized it was my real-estate agent.

"Hai, Chiyo-San and please no formalities." I could hear him laugh over the phone and had to surpress a chuckle of my own.

"How do you like your new home, Ash-Chan?"

"It's great. I absolutely love it! I couldn't have asked for anything better."

"Good, good... I am glad to hear it. If you have any problems let me know."

"No, not at all. I should be great. The movers will be here with the rest of my things in the morning." I got off the phone with my realator and started unpacking. It was well past midnight by the time I was done and I had arrived at noon. I had to admit I did pretty good. I cleaned up from takeout and went to my room.

My room was perfect. The walls were a light teal color, the carpet was the color of white sand. The japanese futon which sits under the window was covered in simple black sheets with my favorite purple comforter. The curtains hanging over the window are a soft purple to accent my bed and the walls. I had set up all my pictures and trinkets around the room and put all my clothes away. Another thing I loved was how big the closet was. I may not have alot of things but I had alot of clothes. What could I say? I care about how I look.

I got changed into my pajamas and climbed into bed. My time here is sure to be very interesting.

Please review and tell me what you think and give me any ideas you might have. I value all of your opinions.

Thank you. - LDN25
