Summer

Towns are nice for the elderly, but definitely not so for the youthful. So, definitely not!

"Aiko-nee-chan, are you saying that your beautiful Mother, Rukia-nee-chan…is old!?"

"What?" The raven haired girl took a second glance at her journal entry, but decided to stick with it. "Kon, you know what I mean…" Grabbing the excess fur of the stuffed lion plush on the back, she casually threw the talking doll across the room and continued writing.

"Ow, Aiko-nee-chan…why must you torture me so?" The yellow plush whined and strained as it attempted to climb back onto the bed. It's a pretty difficult task when you're only inches tall. And even more so when lack opposable thumbs.

"Well…you can always hang around outside my room…" The raven haired teen had already put away her journal, and was currently flipping through a magazine. Upon hearing the other option, the wily stuffed animal whined even louder and clung onto the human girl's arm.

"Please Aiko-onee-chan! You wouldn't throw me out there with them!?" A loud series of thumps pounded against the door, and two high pitched voices although muffled, carried through the solid object.

"Onee-chan!" One voice called out.

"Aiko-Onee-chan, have you seen Kon?" another asked.

"Aah! They're here for me!" the lion plush panicked and jumped into the safest place he could think of.

"Oi!!" the teenager yelped out and grabbed after the possessed toy that had just jumped into her shirt. As she did so, she jumped off of her bed and angrily stomped towards the door. After mere minutes of shuffling her hand within her shirt, Aiko managed to grab onto the toy and opened her bedroom door. Two incredibly cute pairs of eyes looked up with increased happiness and bulged at the sight of their older sister. More so when they saw the dangling yellow lion held out in her hand.

"Kon!" They both cheered.

"Nee-chan? What happened to our deal!?" The plush screamed out as he was slowly lowered to the children's grabby hands.

"You promised me never to do that again, remember? Besides…I think its cold of you to keep Kai and Hisana Demon Searching while you're cozy up here." When her hand was low enough for them to jump up, the two kids easily grabbed onto the toy and began running after each other and fought over possession.

"O…nee…chan!!" Kon's voice screamed out pathetically down the hall. The teenager however, simply waved at the cute sight of her happy siblings and walked back into her room.

Of all the things that were boring during summer break in a small town, nothing was worse than spending a night during summer break in a small town. Sure, several classmates had called during the day, wanting to watch fireflies, or go camping, or worse…stand around and…chill.

"I'm…bored!" The raven haired teen lazed around on the downstairs couch. "Why isn't there anything to do?" she rolled around on the couch, as if to spark her muse. The front door squeaked open, although it did nothing to move her. The soft pressing of the rug grew louder, like that of a burglar. "Hey Yutaka." She said, bored.

"No its not…I'm a burglar!"

A salty scent was floating around the room, and Aiko sniffed the air. "Hmmm…if you were a burglar, why would you be walking around with a bag of fried foods?"

"Ah….I give up." The older man chuckled to himself. His shoes clacked onto the hardwood floor and left towards the kitchen.

"Where's mom?" She called to the other room.

"She's just closing up the store. She'll be back soon! Say, you want to sneak some bites before she gets home?" Aiko rolled over so she sat normally on the couch, and was more than ready to join him, but her cell phone suddenly started to ring. "Aiko, what was that?"

"Nothing!" She responded "Uh, Yutaka…I'll have to get a rain check for that offer!" Aiko nervously set the device to vibrate, and rushed upstairs towards her room.

A sudden thumping of footsteps caught the old man's attention and he looked up at the staircase with a piece of fried chicken skin hanging out of his mouth. "Hmm?"

Rushing into her room, Aiko immediately made sure to close the door and lock it. Hearing the click of the lock, she ran over to her bed and reached under it. "Aha!" she finally pulled out a small shoebox through the bed sheets, and eager tossed away the box top.

"Aiko-nee-chan!" The familiar squeal of the plushy toy caught her attention. Kon fell from the ceiling onto the ground with a squeak, apparently from hiding on the top shelf.

"Wait…even better!" She quickly shoved the box top and box itself under the bed, and dove at the high pitched lion. It vainly attempted to escape her grasp, but was no challenge against Aiko prodding her fingers into his mouth. Muffled mumbling and screaming escaped his cotton lips, but instantly ceased when she extracted a small green pellet. The doll itself became lifeless, and its writhing limbs went limp.

Without hesitation, Aiko threw the green pellet into her mouth, and coughed violently. "Nee-chan!" she suddenly screamed, and she looked around the room in confusion. "Eh? Nani?"

"Alright Kon…you stay out of trouble, don't do anything perverse, and I'll grant you immunity from Kai and Hisana…deal?" The wide eyed girl looked behind her to find a black robbed girl waving her index finger authoritatively.

"Nee-chan?"

"I'm serious, Kon. You do anything while in my body…and you will suffer the consequences…ok?" The possessed girl nodded in fear of the black kimono dressed twin, one reason being the sheathed Zanpakuto readily available to all Shinigami.

"Well, have fun eating greasy food! I'll try to be back home before mom does!" The black garbed Aiko chirped. Opening a window, she jumped out of her second story room and landed with ease on the lawn below. Taking out her cell phone, she used it as a GPS to locate the target. It instantly began to beep, and a red dot blipped at a regular rate on the screen. "There you are…" She smiled, and Aiko bounded off towards the small downtown area.

In the dark depths of an alleyway, a blue tinted spirit panted as he tried to hide from his pursuer. He ended up in a dead end, and he swirled around to find the dark clothed hunter close off the only venue of escape. "Please…please, don't hurt me!"

"C'mon, I wouldn't do something like that!" Aiko smiled and couldn't help but laugh at the cowardly display. Reaching to her sheathed sword, she drew the metal bladed weapon, eliciting a wail of fear from the spirit. "Geez…calm down…" She sighed out, and turned the sword over so the hilt was pointed down. Lightly stamping the spirit's forehead, the blue tinted man changed from cowering in fear, to relaxed and content.

"See, isn't that better?"

"Yeah…yeah, it is…Arigato!" the man shouted happily as he faded out of view. Only a sole butterfly lingered in his spot, and fluttered towards the moonlit night sky.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?" A female voice called out from the alley entrance. A small dark haired woman, carrying a potted plant peered around the dark alleyway suspiciously.

Mom!? Aiko's inner voice shouted and she jumped straight for the rooftops.

Finally arriving home after a long day at the flower shop, Rukia Kurosaki sighed in relief and eagerly threw away her shoes. She placed the lonely, unsold potted plant on the coffee table and plopped herself onto the living room couch. "Hey Yutaka, how were the kids?" She asked tiredly

"Mommy!" A young girl's voice joyfully screamed out loud

"Mom!" A young boy's voice boomed right behind her. They each tackled the raven haired woman and both attempted to keep her attention with their own stories of how their day was. She just barely managed to stand up with her two kids clinging onto her arms.

"Hey Aiko, come on down, dinner's ready! Aiko?"

"Aiko-nee-chan hasn't been outside her room in forver!"

"And she's been playing with Kon for forever too!"

"Really?" Suspicious of what was going on; Rukia soothed down the kids and slapped each of their butts. Squealing and laughing, the two kids ran into the kitchen, where Yutaka would have to deal with their mischief.

"Aiko?" Rukia knocked on her daughter's door, hoping to speak to her after a long day at work.

The knocks surprised the Kon-possessed girl, and he opened her mouth to answer back. Of course, he knew that with his luck, Rukia-nee-chan would no doubt recognize the imposter. The knocking scared him even more and Kon was nervous enough to answer the woman's questions.

"Psst." A voice whispered from the window sill.

"Aiko-nee-chan?" Turning towards the voice, Kon felt a punch to the gut when the young girl shoved her way back into her body. Spitting out the green pill, Aiko instantly shoved it into the doll's mouth. The door had just unlocked from the key kept in the door-alcove and upon opening the door, a light thump thundered against the other side.

"Aiko, what was that?" Rukia asked the wide smiling teen.

"…nothing mom!" She lightly fibbed. She was laying on her bed, reading a magazine upside down. Aiko just barely realized this, and quickly rotated it so the magazine was sideways. "So uh, dinner ready?" Aiko pranced towards her mother, of whom she inherited most of her looks, and hugged her and pushed her out the door, closing it behind her. When the door closed, the lion plushy finally fell down onto the floor. Haven being smothered by the open door just previously, Kon's head was just slightly deformed and squished.

"Awww…" he whined to himself. He inhaled and shoved his little fuzzy finger into his mouth, popping his head back into shape. Climbing onto the bed, Kon scuttled towards the pillow, and reached under to pull out a tiny doll sized diary and pen. "I should've taken pictures…"
