A/N: Hi people!! Soooo yeah.... This idea came to me while I was bored out of my mind in science class. And I apologize for this being so short. I'm just a beginner author, so I really can't write anything too long... I'll probably continue it if I get some reviews.

Chapter 1: The Letter

Characters: Jami, Mention of friend

Chapter Summary: Jami recieves her unchangeable fate.

# of Words: 705

My name is Jami. I'm a girl in the eighth grade. Unlike most of the kids in my grade, I have an unhealthy obsession over anime. It's kind of cool actually; I know everything there is to know about some anime. Well, I know you didn't click on this link just to hear my bibliography, so here I go. It all began on one very fateful day…

Today was just a normal day. I got up, like any other day, and I went to school. Nothing unusual about that, now is there? Wrong! It was in school that my normal day became abnormal. Very abnormal indeed.

It was just the end of science class, first period. I'm only in eighth grade, so the stuff they teach us isn't that hard. Today's lesson was quite easy, actually. It was just about condensation and things like that… but that's getting off topic.

As I was saying, it was the very end of my class. The annoying bell rang, signaling the actual end of the class. I, like every other student in the school, quickly ran outside the room. I had to tackle maybe twenty students before I finally made it to my locker. Sure, I got bumped around a lot, but I can take a little pain. I walked to my locker, which was around the corner from the science room.

I played around with my lock until it popped open. I opened my locker and a little, folded piece of paper slipped out. What would a small piece of paper like that be doing folded away in my locker?

I decided to lean over and pick it up. The paper was folded in half and taped shut. It had this black and blue flower-like design on the back side. The front had my name on it: Jami. Below was something randomly written in Japanese Kanji. Even below that was a very familiar logo. It was the logo for one of my favorite anime of all time.

It said Bleach in big, bold letters. I knew Bleach like the back of my hand. It was strange how somebody could've known that I loved Bleach with a burning passion. I wondered what exactly this was, and who even put it in my locker in the first place?

I fiddled with the tape and opened the piece of paper. I looked at the inside and started to read it. It was actually quite confusing, maybe some kind of riddle or something. It read:

Jami,

You have been selected. Choose the one that will capture your heart, for once you state his name out loud, you will be forever bound. But not all things will last forever. You are granted a two hour timeframe in which you shall make you decision. Choose wisely, for if you don't answer within the given time, you shall live a cursed fate. Once you finish reading this note, you shall be bound by destiny until your two hours are up. Choose wisely…

Farewell

….. That was weird …..

Was that supposed to be some kind of prank letter or something? I bet Jeremy stuck it in my locker. He's always up to all that mystical junk.

So for the next two hours, I waited for this supposed "cursed fate." Just as I had expected, nothing had happened… except for the fact that I arrived late to my English class, but that doesn't count…

After school, I walked home as usual. It was quite beautiful outside, so I enjoyed the walk. I would've even enjoyed it more if I didn't have this twenty pound bag strapped to my back. Once I got home, I went up to my room. God, I sure love Fridays. I decided to get lazy as I plopped onto my bed.

Before long, I was fast asleep, waiting for what would happen next.

Chapter 2: The Dream

Characters: Jami, Urahara

Chapter Summary: Jami lives through a nightmare and then her dream.

# of Words: 359

I was standing in a world that looked like a solid blue. It wasn't a dark blue, but it wasn't too light either. Just a plain blue. It was actually kind of creepy.

I was running. I think I was running from something, but I'm not quite sure what. It was like running in a snowstorm. Just a solid color everywhere. Void from any movement.

A voice called out to me. It sounded loud and angry," You have failed me, Jami. Why didn't you listen to me? Why?? You disobeyed me, and for that you shall be punished!"

I now knew what I was running from. It was that voice. It was an evil kind of voice, but it didn't have a body. I was running from a sound, if that made any sense.

A giant hand materialized next to me. It was pure black, like the darkest shadow. It had claws instead of fingers. I tried to scream, but nothing came out. The hand reached out and tried to grab me. It succeeded as I lost all feeling in my arms and legs.

I tried to scream again, but still nothing. The hand squeezed onto my flimsy body. The pain slowly faded away as I truly thought I was going to die here. In this strange blue world.

The pain slowly disappeared as the voice came back once again," You have failed my simple task. Prepare to enter the very hell you have brought upon yourself."

The voice and the hand faded away as I started to fall. Everywhere changed from blue to black as I fell down towards an endless abyss. I suddenly felt a hard thump and let out a small groan.

"Ooohhh, it looks like our guest is finally awake!" A strangely familiar voice said. I slowly opened my eyes to see something that I could never dream of in a million years. I was looking directly into the eyes of the one and only Urahara Kisuke.

A/N: I know EXACTLY what your all thinking: Wow, that was really short! Why should I comment if updates will be so small?? I'll try to do bigger updates if I get some good reviews. Once again, sorry for making it so short. Ja ne!
