Chapter 1

Lucky Charm

"Hey hey hey hey hey hey guys GUESS WHAT?"

"Yeah Alexis?" Caroline asked from the couch that she and Lucy were sitting on. They were watching Bleach, a common thing that the four friends did together on Fridays after school.

"Sydney and I were looking up how to meet your favorite Bleach characters for fun and a website about this special charm came up!" Alexis exclaimed.

"'Charm'?" This caught Lucy's attention and she got up from the couch, heading towards the place where Sydney and Alexis were. Caroline followed, after pausing the Bleach episode they were watching, of course.

"Yep, charm!" Sydney said her ultra-happy voice. "It says if you do everything correctly, you actually will get in the Bleach world! The website says that it has happened before, and that's how fillers are created in the episodes!"

"That is such a lie," Lucy huffed, but a little bit of hopefulness shone in her eyes.

"Let's try it anyways!" Caroline said, scrolling down as she already started reading the instructions.

"Okay! Spazz spazz." Sydney said randomly, spazzing out of the blue.

Alexis, Caroline, and Lucy laughed. Sydney was a funny person that often did humorous stuff at the most unexpected times. Some people thought she was mental, but that seriously wasn't true. Probably.

"If you really want to visit the Bleach world, one of you has to say 'send us there' right before going to bed," Lucy read aloud.

"What are we waiting for?" Alexis cried out excitedly. "Let's begin!"

The four of them read the directions and followed them, step by step. First, they made the charm out of paper. It looked like an abstract structure that represented four people, side by side. The reason it looked like four people was to show to send four people to bleach. 'If one person is to go, make the charm look like one person. If two people wish to go, make the charm seem like two people, and so on," was part of the instructions on the website. Nothing was added onto the paper charm; no details, and nothing showing their individual looks. The charm looked like four symmetrical plain people seemingly holding hands. After finishing the charm, the four friends put it on the center of a round table and continued watching Bleach until 11: 59 p.m. They then gathered around the table in the directions of North, South, East, and West. They all watched the clock nervously. For the first part of the chant, they said it together. Then each of them had to say what they wanted to become. "This is how beings like the Bounts and Muramasa were created," The website said. When each of them finished saying what they wanted to be, they spoke together again for the last part. As soon as the clock struck 12:00, Alexis, Caroline, Sydney, and Lucy began the chant:

"To the world of Bleach we wish to go.

Let us travel there together,

And let us leave there together.

Until we wish to return to this very place,

Continue to keep us safe and unharmed from all danger in the world of Bleach.

Oh, people of Bleach, welcome us with utmost kindness."

"I would like to be a powerful Shinigami with really powerful healing abilities," Alexis said.

"I would like to be a captain-level Shinigami," Caroline said. Alexis glared at her for a short moment, and Caroline smirked in reply.

"I would like to be… a Quincy/Shinigami!" Sydney said.

"I would like to be a strong Quincy worthy of Uryu Ishida's praise," Lucy said, her eyes gleaming. Now, they just had to speak this last part together, and the chant would be over.

"To the world of Bleach we wish to go," The four said, and right on cue, the clock's time changed to 12:01.

Sydney, Alexis, Caroline, and Lucy sighed, a little bit relieved. Even though the charm-thing was probably a joke, it was still a little spooky. Then, Alexis broke the silence.

"Why did you copy me, Caroline? I said that because I'll be the perfect cross between Orihime and Rukia, and I'll win Ichigo's heart for sure! " Alexis suddenly burst out. She wasn't serious, of course, and she knew the real reason anyways.

"I didn't copy you Alexis!" Caroline huffed. "I didn't even ask for healing powers! I will be a stronger Shinigami than you though! If I'm captain-leveled, I'll be able to fight Toshiro head on! And we'll become great friends!"

"That's Captain Hitsuguya to you!" Alexis mimicked the white-haired captain. Everyone laughed.

"Yeah, and Sydney, you knew I would ask to be a Quincy! As the only two Quincy's that are the same age, he'll definitely fall for me! Why did you want to be one?" Lucy asked irritably but jokingly at the same time.

"Chill, girl! I'm not really a Quincy anyways, didn't you hear? I'm a Quincy Shinigami. The first, and probably last, one ever! Well, I was going to just a Shinigami too, but that wouldn't be fun if there was three new regular Shinigami and a regular new Quincy!" Sydney said. She saw Lucy's eyes narrow in suspicion and smiled inwardly.

"Is that an excuse so you can take my Uryu away from me?" Lucy glared at Sydney evilly.

"Ha! Don't worry! I'll stay out of your way! One of the reasons I'll be a Quincy Shinigami is to catch Urahara Kisuke's attention! He's a fun guy…fungi! ... And it'll be fun to meet the mysterious guy for once. But I REALLY want to meet Yachiru and Zaraki Kenpachi!" Sydney said happily.

"And I REALLY want to meet Orihime, Rukia, Uryu, Ichigo, Byakuya, Ukitake, Kyouraku—"

Alexis was interrupted by Caroline. "Yeah yeah, we all want to meet the captains. They're the super powerful Shinigami after all."

Alexis sighed dreamily. "Ichigo will be a captain one day."

Sydney smiled smugly. "Well, Urahara was already one, and Zaraki is one! So ha!"

"Captains, smaptains, blah blah blah," Lucy said. "Quincy's are the one's everyone should be interested in."

Caroline gasped. "You did NOT just say that!"

The chatter went on for a while, but eventually it got quieter. It was sometime early in the morning, and the four friends still hadn't gone to sleep yet, after all.

Each of them got into their sleeping bags, tired and ready to go to bed.

"Thank goodness it's Friday!" Sydney exclaimed.

"Yeah, thank goodness," Lucy whispered.

"Good night!" Caroline said, snuggling in like everyone else.

Everyone muttered their good nights and barely a few minutes had passed when only one person was still awake: Alexis. She said one thing right before she fell asleep:

"Send us there."
