The sound of brakes screeching. The bang of a collision. The screams of pain. The gasps, tears and shouts from the witnesses. The noise of a siren and the sight of two cars. The sight of four limp bodies in one and an injured driver in the other. The three souls stood there sadly one wearing the shinigami attire with a zanpakuto like an oversized kitchen knife (a/n couldn't help putting that way of comparing it) a strawberry blonde with tears streaming down her cheeks and a raven haired girl who seemed to be taking it the best. Suddenly hating the silence the raven haired girl yelled out.
"This is all your fault Ichi-nii!!!"
"HOW is it my fault Karin!"
"You should have looked were you were going!"
Their voices became louder and louder until….
"SHUT UP!" the girl and the boy turned to see Yuzu stood there fists clenched. It took a lot to get Yuzu mad but when she was you had to apologise quick because she could be almost as vicious as Karin or Ichigo. They immediately apologised but they both new that the argument would start again some time. All the noise they created soon attracted a shinigami who had been stationed here ready for next week when Ichigo was supposed to have started college (only Ichigo knew this). It was Renji Abarai
"What the hell happened Ichigo you got yourself killed?!" Renji burst out laughing
"It would appear that way. Oh and these are my sisters Yuzu and Karin by the way."
Renji stopped Laughing "Hey I'm Renji Abarai from the soul society I was supposed to take over for your brother while he was at college but I'm not sure now so you guys had better come with me to the soul society as he spoke they all noticed a gate appear behind him and out stepped Toshiro Hitsugaya and Rangiku Matsumoto.
"Orders from the head captain the twins over there" he pointed to Yuzu and Karin "Are to be given a soul burial like any other soul and Ichigo Kurosaki and Renji Abarai are to follow us through the gate."
"But Toshiro-" Ichigo protested
"It's Captain Hitsugaya and no they will be given a soul burial like the head captain demands,"
"Oh but Captain the Kurosaki's will lose all their memories and they might not see each other again" Rangiku pleaded
"No Matsumoto"
"Excuse me" Karin spoke up "BUT CAN EVERYONE STOP TALKING LIKE ME AND YUZU AREN'T HERE!!!!" everyone watched in shock as Karin's reiatsu rose up with each word until it reached the reiatsu that could almost be stronger than a captain's.
"Karin lower you reiatsu before the hollows appear" Ichigo ordered
As if on cue a rip appeared and through it stepped a menos grande and three weaker hollows. Yuzu hid behind Ichigo terrified. Karin walked over to Yuzu and held her close in an effort to reassure her that it would be okay. Karin watched carefully as Rangiku and Renji quickly finished off the weaker hollow by slicing down the mask turning them into thousands of pieces. Toshiro and Ichigo Finished off the menos as quickly as they could while Renji and Rangiku protected Yuzu and Karin. When it was finally destroyed Toshiro didn't sheath his sword.
"It's time we send you girls off then" he adjusted his grip on the sword ready to place it on Karin's forehead.
"wait!" she said firmly "why can't we stay here for one or two days so we can say goodbye to our town and to Ichi-nii because she" indicating Rangiku "said we'd lose our memories and might not see each other again."
"She has a point Captain." Rangiku piped up. Toshiro guessed she was after a shopping trip and sighed.
"I'll ask the head Captain now go to Urahara's and wait there. They obeyed and walked off.
When Toshiro Hitsugaya walked into the head captain's office Yamamoto had made a good guess at what this was about.
"Ichigo doesn't want his sisters to be given a soul burial correct?"
"Yes sir and one of them has requested two days to say goodbye to everything"
"Grant them the two days"
"I will but sir why can they not accompany us through the gate?"
"those girls have quite high spiritual power but they lack experience I believe that if they learn a way to save in Rukongai then they would gain experience and strength thus creating two potential seated officers."
"I understand please excuse me sir"
"Very well you may go,"
It had been 2 hours since Captain Hitsugaya had left to put forward their request it was getting late but no one spoke and no one slept. Karin becoming bored of the silence asked Ichigo, Rangiku and Renji about the soul society. Renji explained about Rukongai and the shinigami academy, Rangiku explained about the squads and the seireitei and Ichigo explained about the people in the soul society that he had met. Karin decided that she wanted to see everything and meet everyone they told her about. Sometime later Toshiro arrived back and told them what Yamamoto had said. They were grateful that they had been given their two days of goodbyes but at the same time they were disappointed somewhere deep inside Yuzu and Karin knew that those two days would probably be the last two days they would ever see each other. Yuzu decided that she would help Tessai with the dinner while Karin and Ichigo decided to go into the basement and fight hand to hand. Urahara, Renji, Toshiro and Rangiku all watched amused at the way Ichigo would occasionally fly into boulders from the attacks Karin sent at him. Renji laughed as Ichigo fell down after one particularly strong kick.
"Hey, Ichigo! You can defeat espada and even Aizen but then you get beaten up by a girl who is almost half your size!"
"SHUT UP I'd like to see how you do!"
" Okay then!" Renji jumped down from a boulder he had been sitting on propped Zabimaru up on the same boulder and walked over to Karin.
"Is that okay with you?"
"Of course give me the best you've got"
Ichigo went and sat with the others and watched as Renji charged at Karin she waited for the last minute then quickly ducked under his arm grabbing his wrist and throwing him behind her he lay there before getting up and attacking from behind. Karin span round catching his fist with one hand and punching him in the stomach with the other then releasing her grip as he doubled over in pain roundhouse kicked him into the nearest boulder.
"Captain Soifon would love her!" Rangiku exclaimed.
"DINNER!!!" Yuzu called down preferring to yell down rather than climb down into the basement. Everyone immediately got up and ran for the food Karin, Renji and Ichigo however weren't quite as fast.
"Damn you Renji my foot nearly broke when I kicked you are your ribs made of steel?!"
"Not that I know of and it's your fault shouldn't have kicked me the way you did."
She frowned. Then suddenly deciding her foot was okay ran ahead catching up to the others who had just reached the ladder. After Dinner, which to describe in one word was noisy, a guest appeared in the form of Isshin Kurosaki who to some peoples surprise (the vice captains and his own children) was wearing a shinigami outfit and a white haori slung over his shoulder. After explaining that he was actually a shinigami who had left the soul society in order to live with Masaki he received two punches one from Ichigo and the other from Karin. They yelled at him saying that he should have told them sooner.
Some time after that Karin decided to go sit on the roof for some peace so she left the overly loud room and climbed up onto the roof sitting down not noticing the other figure nearby.
"It's a nice night, huh?" the figure muttered Karin jumped she recognised the figure to be Toshiro. She watched as he smirked "Did I scare you?" he teased.
"No! why would I be scared of you shorty!"
"I'm not short and you practically jumped off the roof!"
"whatever!" she muttered lying back listening as the wind blew the severed chain of fate making a metallic noise. It was very annoying having the chain in the middle of her chest.
"This chain is so annoying"
"Don't worry It'll be gone when you go to the soul society." he smiled softly but for someone reason she got the impression that that wasn't his true smile. She smiled back.
"Hey Toshiro?"
"What!"
"Could you do me a favour?"
"Depends…"
"Well if you ever see me in the soul society do you think you could help me remember and then help me find Yuzu?"
"If you've forgotten I'll help you remember and if your alone I'll help you find Yuzu but under one condition."
"What's that shorty?"
"Okay two conditions one you stop calling me shorty and two if you haven't already you will join the shinigami academy okay?"
"Yep I can agree to that."
"Good" he holds out his hand and she shakes it. Then she lies back and looks at the moon and the stars he copies her. When Karin turns she notices he's asleep she climbs down grabs a blanket and places it on top of him before disappearing inside. When she goes in she sees that everyone is asleep apart from her and Yuzu they sit close to Ichigo waiting for morning to come.
When morning came everyone was slow to start with, Rangiku was probably the slowest because at some point last night she had felt the need to have a solo drinking party and had consumed half the sake in the shop (for some reason there was an awful lot of it which makes you wonder what Urahara and co do when everyone else is off risking their life) eventually after a lot of yelling she got up. They were all about to have breakfast when the door slammed open revealing a very angry Rukia Kuchiki.
"ICHIGO! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO!? NOT ONLY DO YOU GET YOURSELF KILLED BUT YUZU AND KARIN TOO!!?"
Ichigo had already stood up as Rukia ran at him ready to kick him and punch him and injure him anyway possible. Ichigo following instinct ran as far away from Rukia as possible. She pursued.
"COME BACK HERE YOU IDIOT!" she yelled after him
"AND GET KILLED A SECOND TIME!? NO CHANCE!"
Karin sighed as everyone else stared at the door that they had just ran out of. She stood up and went to the roof. From the roof she had a clear view of Rukia and Ichigo. Rukia was stamping on her older brother. She sat there so lost in thought that she didn't even notice when Toshiro climbed up on to the roof and sat down beside her until he tapped her on the shoulder. She jumped and turned to face him.
"Do you like making me jump?" she questioned
"Maybe" he smirked "anyway don't get so lost in thought and it won't happen."
"yeah yeah. Would you like something?"
"Not really. Just thought I'd come talk to you. They've stopped fighting by the way." he pointed over to Ichigo and Rukia she looked to see that in place of hitting him Rukia was now hugging him and by the look on his face a little to tightly. Karin laughed. Then sighed.
"god Toshiro don't you ever laugh?"
At first she thought he wasn't going to answer but after a long pause he sighs as well.
"I guess.." as he speaks he gazes at the sky "I guess not at least I haven't laughed in a while."
"oh." at first she looked sad then she looked up and smiled " I guess it's up to me then"
" To do what?"
" To make you laugh of course!" at this he smiled she stood up "come on I've only got two days to so I want to get some stuff done!"
"I'll come with you"
"why?"
"I need to make sure your not attacked by a hollow or Ichigo will kill me!"
"okay!"
"so where are we going first" she pauses to think.
"My mums grave!"
"how come?"
"because on the anniversary of her death every year we go up there so I guess I want to tell her that we won't be coming this year and that I'm gonna find her in soul society"
"I see. Would you like me to get you there quicker?"
"how?"
"easy climb on my back and I'll use shunpo!"
"shunpo?"
"It's a technique we use that makes us travel faster but you'll have to direct me and we'll have to tell the others where we're going."
"okay!"
She climbed off the roof and went to tell everyone. When she returned she climbed on his back and gave him simple directions. What should have been a half an hour walk took only five minutes. When he set her down he waited further away so she could say what she wanted to say privately. When she was done she climbed on his back again.
"where to now?"
"I need to check up on my friends we were meant to play a match today so I wanna see how it goes."
"Are you sure they'll play without you?"
"Yeah they know I'd hate to see them forget a match because of my death I whittled it into their brain when I broke my leg one time I was in hospital because of it they came to see me and ask about the match so I told them to play it anyway even if I couldn't. They found someone who said they'd play when I couldn't and so he was my substitute but now he's my replacement."
As she finished the story they arrived at the football pitch. She climbed up a tree and sat there waiting for the match. Sure enough the group had decided to play even though they had lost their best player and friend that week. She looked at him with a look that said told you so. Even so they looked so sad and lost most of them were wearing black football kits at this she smiled even though they were playing the match they were still remembering her.
The match ended her team won. She smiled you did great guys she thought. The sun began to set and so her chauffer for the day carried her home on his back. As he ran back at a slightly slower pace than before he thought about how Karin always seemed so hard yet inside she was caring and kind like Yuzu is inside out.
She is like you Hyourinmaru said
No she isn't i'm ice completley solid ice you know that
If you insist
what??!
forget it
forget what?
your hopless anyway watch were your going.
Becoming bored with the silence karin sighed then said "now your the one lost in thought huh?"
"hmm? oh i guess i was just thinking aboout ow some parts of your personality is like Yuzu's and the rest is the oposite."
"yeah i guess your right only it's more of the oposite i reckon."
"really? i think it's about the same"
"maybe. oh yeah by the way when i go to the soul society if you ever see me can we play soccer together?"
"if i'm not busy and if we do see each other i guess we could"
"great! anyway our deal garantees we'll see each other and because i'm gonna become a shinigami anyway and i'll be a captain stronger than you"
"oh great another kurosaki just what we need" he smirked and this earnt him a hit on the back of the head "what was that for?"
"what was that for?! what was that supposed to mean exactly just what we need?!"
"nothing. anyway we're here"
He stopped outside the shop putting Karin down she ran into the shop after thanking him about three times. A hell butterfly flew toward him he received the message and walked into the shop to tell the others.
"I just received word that by noon tomorrow the girls must have been given a soul burial and all shinigami in here now except from Renji are to be in the soul society or on their way that includes Isshin." with that he left the room and decided to sleep on the roof.
