Hello everyone! Well this will be my first story on here and yes, this is a crossover between Bleach and Ouran. But I just want to warn everyone that the crossover won't happen until much later. But with that said, please enjoy and tell me what you think. ^^

~(::)~(::)~(::)~

Fallen angels at my feet

Whispered voices at my ear

Death before my eyes

Lying next to me I fear

She beckons me

Shall I give in?

Upon my end shall I begin

Forsaking all I've fallen for

I rise to meet the end

-Evanescence

The once beautiful, blue sky filled with fluffy, white clouds and the sun shining brightly, was covered by black smoke. Red was seen everywhere as random wild fires rose higher to the sky, enveloping the air with toxic smog. The once lush, green field, was replaced by brown and corpses were littered everywhere. The smell of rotting flesh and blood reeked the air, signaling the war that was still raging on.

Screams of pain and blood oozing out of the soldiers fighting, how did it ever come down to this? Our people's bodies were everywhere, some missing an arm, leg or even their head. Everywhere you stepped there was the blood or the body of a best friend. These people were like family to me, they accepted me in their home. It was hard to see them die in such a gruesome and unsightly way. It all started too quickly, from a verbal threat to such a repugnant war.

I ran as fast as I could, leaping in the air and avoiding attacks from the horrific monsters. I tried my best not to see what was happening and just focus on my destination, but it was much too hard. Can you imagine running and as you run you hear someone scream bloody murder, their blood splattering all over your body. Especially if that person was part of your family, people you loved and cared about.

I wiped away the tear that escaped without my knowing and continued my goal, but just as I was running I heard a deadly scream. I tried to ignore it, but I soon felt the ground leaving my feet and my body being flung across the body littered floor. I quickly flipped in the air and landed on the ground, but just as I landed, a claw was sent my way. I gasped and leaped into the air, just barely dodging the huge clawed hand. I looked down in mid-air to see those horrid monsters that did this to our land. I landed a few meters away from the demon and looked at the place where its eyeballs were supposed to be, only holes were visible for its eyes.

I have no choice, but to fight it, I solemnly muse to myself, But it has to be done quickly, if not Toki would be-, suddenly I'm cut off from my thoughts as a familiar blonde intercepted the demon's attack, startling me at the fact I had lowered my defenses.

"I'll take care of this Mieko! You go and save Toki!" Ryoku bellowed loudly over the demon's thundering roar.

My eyes widened as I saw Ryoku going at it with the demon. I couldn't move. All I could think about at the moment was not him. He was one of the people that accepted me the most, the one I had come to love. I watched as his hands fully transformed into claws, his teeth turning into sharp fangs, his eyes turning into that familiar purple/grey color and his pupils turning into silver slits. I stood a few feet behind him, completely paralyzed, only able to hear the growls emitting from his throat.

Ryoku manages to throw the demon onto the ground and growls out, "Go Mieko!"

I softly shake my head and stare at him desperately. "No! I can't leave you Ryoku! I don't want to lose you!"

I held back the tears, now was not the time for crying, but I couldn't help the hopelessness I felt right now. I continued to watch as Ryoku held down the monster and quickly swiped his claws through the monsters neck. Black blood spurted out, as the demon didn't even have time to scream in agony. Its head rolled away from its body as its eyes had returned at the last minute, making green iris's stare blankly at me. I quickly stepped away from the head and ran toward Ryoku, embracing him tightly.

"You can't die! You promised me that-," though my sentence is interrupted as I felt Ryoku lift my chin with his claws gently, making him see my tears. His purple/grey eyes softened even more when they saw my tear stained face. His voice came out in a low soothing whisper that calmed me down in that instant.

"Don't worry my little kitten, everything is going to be alright. My life doesn't matter. All that matters is getting Toki to safety. If they get her...just promise me that you'll survive alright?"

I felt his cold lips press against mine, as he pulled me closer to his body. I knew this was going to be the last moment we were going to have together, so I embraced him and poured all my love into that one kiss. But his body suddenly became alert, as he quickly pulled away and dodged an attack from another demon. We landed meters away from the demon, I knew this was it. He gave me a quick peck on my forehead and let me go just in time to block the demons mouth.

"NOW MIEKO! GO!"

I nodded my head sadly and whispered "I love you" knowing he heard it. I looked back one last time and quickly began to flash step my way to the center of the village. I wasn't going to let these monsters take Toki into their possession, who knows what would happen if they did. To have that kind of power in the wrong hands would be treacherous.

I was more determined than ever to get to the center of the village, more than anything. I soon got to the center and looked around at my surroundings-quiet. The way the houses and land was, you could tell there was a battle here before. I stealthily walked over to a house that looked completely demolished and began to take away the rubble from a certain spot. I remember this place all too well, I would visit here the most, it was where Ryoku lived. He showed me this hiding spot. Under the book shelf was a small door, where underground was the lab of Fushigi-sama.

I finally reached the door handle and pulled on it with all my strength, opening it right after. I looked around me, making sure I wasn't being watched or followed. After I confirmed that it was safe, I quickly jumped down the hole, choosing to ignore the stairs. I began to see lights and soon my feet found the ground, leaving me in the familiar large room.

"Mieko, you made it. I'm glad."

A smirk finds a way into my face at the familiar voice as I respond with my back to them. "What, did you think I would let myself be killed? It's like you don't know me at all Hito-sama."

I turned to look at Hito-sama as he stepped out of the shadows, the familiar slit silver pupils staring at me. Soon Kasumi-sama came out from the shadows as well, standing on Hito-sama's left.

"At any rate, we're glad you decided to take this task Mieko. Knowing it might cost your life," Kasumi-sama responds as she smiles over at me.

I only return the smile. "I would do anything for Toki-bozu, she's like a little sister to me. I won't let anything bad happen to her, you have my word."

"I'm very proud of you Mieko," Hito-sama comments this time as a smile graces his handsome face. "Follow me if you will."

I watched as Hito-sama walked toward a metal door, Kasumi-sama right behind him. I followed close behind Kasumi-sama and gazed as Hito-sama cut his index finger with his claw and insert it on the scanner. Soon the metal door slid open and revealed a much smaller room, where Toki was fast asleep on a futon.

My eyes softened, as I stared at her peaceful sleeping figure, her shoulder length silver hair cascading all over the pillow. To think that this little girl held all that amazing power without her knowing it. I glanced at Kasumi-sama to see her near tears just staring at her daughter, it was heart breaking.

"We already erased her memory. She won't remember this horrid war or...anyone for that matter," came Hito-sama's voice as he looked over at Toki sadly.

"To think that we would have to resort to this...," I replied softly as my gaze flickered to the floor.

Kasumi-sama only nods gravely, her eyes shining with unshed tears. "It's for the best...that she doesn't remember this place."

"Mieko, I already set the machine," continues on Hito-sama as he walked over to me. "Take Toki and take care of her please. Soon this place will cease to exist."

My eyes widened at what he said, what did he mean cease to exist? He never told me anything about this. I stared at both of them in disbelief and grief, were they really going to do this?

"You're not serious! You can't do that! What if you end up winning the war? Toki could come back and have her memory restored!" I bellowed out shrilly as my eyes shown the confusion I felt. "That was the plan wasn't it? I thought this arrangement was only temporary!"

I was near tears by now, why did they change the plan? It would surely work and now they plan on just deleting this dimension forever? It didn't make any sense!

Hito-sama only sighs sadly. "Mieko please understand. I know this seems rash, but we talked it over with the elders and they agree. This is the best solution there is. Our dimension has gotten much too dangerous, we've been risking the balance ever since we were created."

"Please Mieko, do this for us, for our people," Kasumi-sama chimed in.

I stared at the floor, my eyes wide with fear and panic, would I really not see them, my family, again? They took me in after I ran away from home, even though I wasn't even part of them. They were my family now, much more than my real family ever could be. Was I really willing to give all this up? But at least...I would always have Toki.

"Alright...I'll do it. For Toki and our people," I respond.

I smiled brightly at them, a bit of sadness still lingering in my eyes. Both returned the smile, although I could clearly see the grief in their eyes-this was hurting them twice as much as it does me. Just as Hito-sama was walking toward the machine, an explosion came from the ceiling-a demon falling through. Its piercing howl broke through the walls, no one noticing the little sparks the machine started to give out. Hito-sama already started to fight with the demon, but more emerged from the ceiling, one landing right next to the sleeping Toki.

Kasumi-sama reacted quickly and grabbed Toki before the demon had a chance to swipe at her. I dodged a piece of metal heading toward me and see that a demon was the one responsible. Just as I landed, Kasumi-sama handed me the small sleeping figure of Toki and pushed me toward the machine.

"You must hurry Mieko! It's time! The elders are ready to begin and destroy this dimension!" She gently hugs me and whispers, "Please take care of her Mieko and when the time comes...tell her the truth."

I didn't have time to respond as Kasumi-sama pushed me toward the machine again-while blocking a demon. I gave everything one more gaze before my eyes landed on Toki, her small stature in my arms. But just as I was going to walk through the huge hole that was on the machine an energy beam shot at me, making Toki fly out of my arms and into the portal. My eyes widened in panic and I ran toward the portal, only to be blocked by a demon.

My rage boiled in my veins and I glared coldly at the demon, I jumped in the air and landed behind the demon-making my way to the portal. Just as I had landed, the demons head rolled onto the floor and landed in front of the machine. I glared at the demon once again, before jumping into the portal, trying to get to where Toki was sent.

But what I didn't see clearly was where the demon's head had landed. The small screen that held the coordinates was flashing red, different words were placed, while the automatic voice of the machine was deafened by the battle going on.

'Warning! Malfunction! Original data corrupted!'

A man with light blonde hair stepped out of his division and walked toward his training area. His white and black robes swishing with the wind, as he got to his destination. Soon a small and faint noise was heard, the sound of crying rang through the night air. He came upon a small figure in the dark and let his grey eyes gaze at the small child. The little girl soon felt the large shadow cascading down on her and looked up with wide, fear stricken, olive/yellow eyes.

The man let a smile play on his face, as he kneeled down in front of the little girl and held out his hand. The little girl watched him with curiosity now in her big eyes, while she couldn't help but be soothed by the man's rough yet gentle voice.

"Hey there why are you crying? A little girl as pretty as you shouldn't be sad."

The little girl couldn't hold back the small giggle that escaped her lips, the tears now stopping. The man smiled gently at her as the little girl put her small hand in his large one, a smile replacing the frown that was on her lips just seconds ago. The man stood up straight and looked down at the little girl who was staring at him in curiosity.

"Tell me, what's your name? Mine's Kisuke Urahara," Kisuke replies as he smiles softly.

The little girl looked down at the ground sadly for a moment, before something flashed in her eyes and she smiled brightly at him. Her meek voice being a huge difference to Kisuke's rough voice.

"My name is Toki. But I don't know what my last name is...," she gently trails off with sadness laced in the last sentence.

Kisuke caught the sadness in her voice while she still smiled and making his eyes soften. He looked forward, walking toward his division with Toki's small hand in his. "Alright Toki, would you mind me asking why you were out here by yourself?"

Kisuke glanced down at her again, his small smile never leaving his face. Toki smiled sadly, although the tears pooled in her olive/ yellow colored eyes, pouring down her small round face.

"I don't know. I woke up where I was. I don't remember anything, except my name."

Toki smiled at Kisuke brightly, the warm tears still running down her cheeks. Kisuke smiled once again and picked Toki up in his arms, wiping away her tears with his thumb. Toki yawned and snuggled into Kisuke's chest, surprising him at how comfortable she was with him. But then Kisuke held her close and walked into the 12th division, while Toki was soon fast asleep.
