To The End
Prologue(or spoilers):
Ichigo knew he had to get some help quick before it was too late. Rukia was clutched in his arms as both of their blood spilled on the forest floor. Ichigo's heart thumped loudly in his ears as his strength began to leave him. He could barely see what was in front of him and he felt like passing out.
The light he ran for grew closer as he looked down at Rukia's now cold body. "Don't worry, we're almost there!" he said, knowing she didn't hear. Ichigo used the last of his strength to make it to the light. As he ran to it he could remember everything him and Rukia had done together. His life flashed in his eyes as he ran through the forest. It felt impossible, he didn't think he would make it to that light up ahead. He was sure he would pass out, but he didn't want to give up.
He kept running to it for Rukia's sake. He didn't care what happened to him, Ichigo wanted her to be safe at least. His legs wobbled and he almost dropped Rukia for a second. "I can make it," he told himself.
Ichigo remembered when Rukia left him to go to the Soul Society, the tears in her eyes. He also remember that day he saved her on the execution. She yelled at him but he could tell she was filled with joy and worried for his safety. Ichigo remembered when he went back for the world of the living that they'd thanked each other. He said he thought the rain had finally stopped. He wanted that rain to stop right now, the rain clouding his heart and mind as he began to black out.
He was a few feet away from the light now, and both him and Rukia had lost a considerable amount of blood. When he reached the light he felt like screaming for what he'd done. He failed both him and Rukia for running here. His heart thumped and crunched as he knelt, keeping Rukia in his hands.
