A New Day

Blood, bodies, debris ,and fire all around me. I stood there at the feet of my parents bloody bodies. I'd shaken them so many times begging them to get up refusing to accept the truth. The room around me was completely ablaze preventing any exit. I didn't care I just wanted my mom and dad to get up. soon the smoke began to fill my lungs causing an intense burning sensation and I began to cough uncontrollably. "Mom! Dad! Please get up,I need you. You can't be dead you can't be." I fell to my knees then collapsed to the floor The smoke was really getting to me now. I knew I was gonna die here alongside my parents I wanted to cry but I could scarcely breathe. " Nagumo!" Someone near by shouts. There's a crash and I look up to find the wall to the outside now has a huge hole in it. A young woman with dark blue eyes and long Blood red hair runs through she's wearing a black hakuma but over it a golden breastplate, gauntlet's, and knee boots. "Nagumo!" she rushes over and picks me up. "Ayumi." I say my voice raspy and weak. "Mom...Dad there-" I begin to cough violently again. She looks down at the bodies and a look of utter dread spread across her face "N-no." Her voice was barely a whisper. She turns shaken "W-we have to go Nagu there gone." I nod. She takes a step and in a instant where on a hill over looking a our burning village. Some of the survivors around us. Looking down at the blaze I start to sob. Ayumi holds me tighter and I cry on her chest. Our whole world had come crashing down.

I awaken suddenly tears in my eyes. I quickly sit up. Why was I crying... bad dream I guess. I wipe my eyes and shrug it off. I look around my small room spotting some boxes labeled Nagu. Boxes? Oh right we only moved in a few days ago. I get up and open my blinds letting the sunlight illuminating the dark room. I stand there staring out at the city our new home. Karakura town. I shower when I get out and dry off I look in the mirror. my short Blood red hair is messy as usual, my Dark blue eyes piercing, and my skin pale. I head back to my room and dress putting on my White short sleeve shirt one broad red vertical stripe, black jeans, and black sneakers with a horizontal red stripe along them. Catching the smell of breakfast I head downstairs. As I enter the kitchen I spot her. She's wearing a pink sun dress with deep green heels. Her hair is long sky blue and pulled back into a long ponytail her She's taller than me slightly, her skin slightly darker than mine. She turns showing her big emerald green eye's and she smiles that bright bubbly smile I know her for. "Morning Nagu!." Her voice sounding as bright and bubbly as she looks. "Morning Keiko." I smile back but I'm not as bubbly. Looking over at stove I see she's Frying a omelet, boiling some rice, and boiling a kettle of tea. Tea? I really perfer coffee. "Oh right." She turns grabbing a mug I didn't notice from the counter. The sweet aroma of coffee with way to much cream and sugar comes from the cup. she hands it to me. "I know you perfer coffee." I take a sip and it tastes like heaven. " Keiko your some kind of angel aren't you." She giggles. I sit down and continue sipping. soon she places the omelet and rice on the plate in front of me. "Thank you." She smiles again "No problem." I dig in to her always delectable cooking. Soon she places herself a omelet on the plate across from me takes a seat and pours herself a cup of tea. "So where's mom" I ask as she stirs some sugar in. "Oh. She said she had something to take care of today." I nod keiko looking kinda sad. Again Huh? she's never home. "So what are you doing today. You know be fore we have to go to our new school tomorrow." Purposely Changing the subject. "Oh. I have to do a little grocery shopping then I was hoping for to have a little picnic with you by the river." "Oh. So a date?" I say say smiling mischievously. "N-no o-of course not! Your my brother!" She turns red and looks away flustered. " But not by blood" I say leaning closer to her. Somehow she seemed to turn even more red. Not able to hold it in anymore I begin to laugh hysterically. "Ah man. It's way to easy to mess with you. She shoots me a very dirty look and sticks out her tongue. I roll my eye's, Very mature. Then finish my meal and place my dishes in the sink. "I have to go to that mall I saw and pick something up first but yeah a picnic sounds nice." Her face lights up with joy "Really?" I nod "Yeah." I head for the door. "I'll meet you there." I call to her " Okay don't keep me waiting." She calls back. As I walk out into the warm sunny day,I couldn't have known what that day held in store.

Silently, slowly, I search through the trees. My Nodachi like zanpakuto drawn, My breath came to heavily from chasing them here. I could sense them faintly among the trees. Damn I don't like this. Hearing a twig break I turn ready to cut down my foe. Nothing I really don't like this. "Soul Reaper I don't want to fight you!" The strangers voice comes from behind and me way above. I look up to where they came from but there gone. "You don't have to if you come out and identify yourself!." I call back. There's a long silence. "I can't do that." There voice is practically right in my ear. I turn swinging my sword at the same time. Our swords collide mine only just stopping her's from taking my head off. I couldn't even feel her presence this time 'til she spoke! As we both try to force the other back I glare at the attacker I realize this is first time I've gotten a good look at them. There eyes are a dark piercing blue, there hair is hidden by their brown cloak, and the bottom half of there face is hidden by a face mask. Their also wearing a Shihakusho tied by a golden ribbon with a golden breastplate, gauntlets, and boots. "Your persistent I like it but..." She suddenly forces me back. She raises her hand and makes a fist suddenly a glowing mark appears on her hand. Fierce wind swirls around me trapping me like a prison. "But I have a matter to attend to." I swing my sword at the prison but it's deflected as if it's nothing. She turns and flashsteps away. The winds subsides freeing me.I take off after her but to no avail. "Dammit completely lost 'em this time." I angrily sheath my zanpakuto. I lean against tree, I close my eyes calming myself down, They assigned me here because Kurumadani got himself injured they didn't mention zanpakuto wielding strangers. I open my eyes then let out a long sigh. I'd better report this. I reach for my soul phone. Suddenly I feel a hollow's spiritual pressure spike far off in the distance. Here we go again. Hand on my sword I head towards the hollow.

I walk out of the mall with a bag containing the new 'Fighter's Unleashed' game. Man I can't wait to get home and pop this baby in. I'm smiling pretty broadly as I walk back through the park near the mall. The park was fairly large but the river was on the other side. As I'm walking I get this chill As if someone was watching me. I turn and for a split second I could swear I saw something dart into the trees. Probably a dog or something. With a shrug I continue towards the river. Suddenly something wraps around me with a vice grip. "Arrrrghhhh." I scream in pain, struggling against it. Looking down I realize I can't see what's grabbing me, It's only a blur,. Crap! Crap! Crap! What the hell's going on! Whatever it is it takes off toward the wooded area of the park. As it rushes through the tree's I try thrashing about trying to free myself but in response it tightens it's grip ,Having to think fast, I do the one thing I can think of. Opening my mouth wide I bite down hard and blood fills my mouth. Whatever I bit let's out the loudest shriek I've ever heard. Suddenly I'm thrown forward form It's grasp and into a tree, Pain shoots through my back, And I black out a couple seconds. When I open my eyes my blood instantly turns cold. Towering in front of me is a creature in a white mask that resembles a chameleon. It opens its mouth revealing razor sharp teeth. I'm so Screwed. It takes a step toward me and leaps. I close my eyes and grit my teeth. There's a loud clashing sound then... nothing. I open my eye's and gawk. In front of me stands a women with a long nodachi blocking the creature's attack.
