HI! It's Rin!!!!!! What up?

Well, here is my second attempt at a Fanfiction. My first one A Broken Crystal Heart I think, is not so good. I mean, I have more written, but until I get more reviews I think I'm going to discontinue it. This is a Bleach Fanfic and I'm writing it for a friend. Suzu is her character and Yumi is mine. I have some other stories/ fanfics in mind to put up later, but I need some R & R and/or messages!

Take it away Grimmy!

Fireflies and Vanilla Twilight Chapter One: Beginning


Suzu Yukira sat amongst her Soul Reaper Academy graduating class. She surprised herself by graduating. Suzu was average, excelling only in kido. She had but two friends because of this, and because of the fact that she was different in appearance. Her black-blue hair was not the difference in appearance, for it was quite common amongst souls. It was her eyes. One golden and the other silver eye, legend to be cursed. Souls were advised to stay away.

Her two friends didn't care. One was Momo Hinamori. She had black-purple hair and large, bright eyes. She was similar to Suzu in the way that she excelled in kido. Momo didn't care about the eye legend and had befriended Suzu the very first day of Soul Academy class.

Her other friend was Yumi Kita. Yumi had long, beautiful brown hair with childish eyes. She had graduated from the Academy early for her captain level skills in the fields of zanjutsy, hakuda, hoho, and kido. These skills and her knowledge of Soul reaper lore helped her gain the position of Third Seat in 5th Company. Yumi was the speaker for the graduation today, she would also tell the graduates the companies they were to be assigned to.

When Yumi appeared before the graduates, the males erupted into cheer. She has been Academy Queen the years she had spent at the Academy, and the men had apparently not forgotten her.

Suzu looked up at Yumi and their eyes met. Yumi smiled, as well as Suzu. Even out of the Academy, Yumi had remained Suzu's BFF through short visit and letters.

"Welcome!" Yumi's voice greeted the graduates. "As you know, today will be the day you are assigned to a Company here in the Soul Society. After the ceremony you will meet your captain who will assign you your position. Unfortunately, Captain General Yamamoto could not make it today, so in his place I wish you the very best of luck! Now listen closely as I call your name."

The names seemed to go on for hours, when in fact there were only about thirty to be called. Suzu waited nervously and looked up when Momo's name was called.

"Momo Hinamori, 5th Company!"

Momo squeeled and rushed behind Yumi, the 5th Company representative. More names were called and then Suzu heard her name.

"Suzu Yukira, 4th Company!"

"Why Yumi? Why?" Suzu cried after the graduation was over.

"Hey, I don't do the assigning, just the announcing," Yumi said, motioning the 5th Company newbies to stay put.

"Besides," Yumi said, "4th Company is right next to 5th, you can visit at anytime."

Suzu began to stutter but Yumi held up her hand to silence her.

"Captain Unohana is a kind woman, you'll be fine," she concluded, "Now I have to get the new recruits to Captain Aizen."

Suzu watched Yumi and Mom walk away, then found her way to the 4th Company group led by Asst. Captain Kotetsu. Kotetsu told them to follow her and the new recruits were on their way to their new home.

When Suzu arrived at the 4th Company building she was not surprised that it resembled a hospital, for 4th Company was known for its medical care. Standing in front of the building was a middle aged woman with her hair braided in the front.

"Welcome to 4th Company," she greeted them in a calm voice, "I am Captain Unohana. I'm glad to see that so many of you have entered my company. I will meet with you all in due time to give you your position."

She smiled at the recruits and retreated into the building, Kotetsu following.

"I'm scared," a boy said from beside Suzu. She looked to see a sickly looking boy.

"Captain Unohana is a kind woman, you'll be fine!" she said, quoting Yumi.

"O-okay…I'm Hanataro Yamada by the way. N-nice to meet you," the boy said and stook out his hand.

"Suzu Yukira," she answered, shaking the hand in front of her. The two talked while waiting for their names to be called. They discussed stuff like the weather, books, and other trivial things that would be considered small talk. After ten minutes, Kotetsu called Hanataro. Minutes later, Suzu was called. As she walked through the hall she was led through she passed Hanataro, who looked very happy.

"Hello Suzu-san," Unohana said as Suzu sat across from her, "I am aware of your situation. You barely graduated the Academy, however you kido is exceptional! I have also heard that your healing skills are above average. I have decided to give you 11th seat."

"Thank you!" Suzu said and bowed. Unohana smiled and watched as Suzu exited her office.

"Suzu!" Hanataro called as he saw her come out, "I got 7th seat! Did you get seated?"

"Yeah! 11th!"

And the two went off to celebrate.

"Captain?" Yumi called, knocking on Sousuke's door. There was no response and she sighed. "Sousuke!?" she yelled. The door opened and the handsome face of Sousuke Aizen appeared before Yumi.

"Yes Yumi?" he asked, looking a little tired. Yumi handed him a folder and pointed at one of the papers inside it.

"You forgot to assign on of the new recruits to a position," she said and folded her arms.

"You can't expect me to be perfect," Sousuke said, knowing that she was angry for not doing everything he was supposed to. He looked down at the folder and sighed.

"Do you want to be Asst. Captain? This one could take you 3rd seat place."

"Sorry Sousuke, you know I hate paperwork."

"Well, this one will be Asst. Captain, you'll remain 3rd seat, however I think you should be given Asst. Captain status along with your title," Sousuke said and gave Yumi back the folder. Yumi shrugged and left. Sousuke sighed and went back into his office.

"I swear," he muttered, "That girl will be the death of me."
