/Summer storms/
'The scariest moment is always just before you start' it's what they say, but facing ghost, hollows, shinigami, a mad- man, and some more... It make me realize my life is full of scary moments. Great. Si
Now before you begin I want you to know a few things:
1) English is not my mother-language so there are bound to be some mistakes in the grammar so if it will bother you too much I can try and fix it but for now bear with me.2) it's 3 in the morning and I'm tired.3) it and idea that wouldn't fade away what with all those wonderful stories in this site on SI, so I'm just trying my hand in this, I might not continue as I don't really have free time for myself, but if I see some that are interested in the story, I will try my best.4) It's been a long time since I last watch bleach so there might be some mistake so if you want you can just throw some comment or ideas by sending me a message.

Life can be strange you know?
One moment you go on your way to college in a perfectly normal day with your favorite music in you ears just about to cross the street, when a flash of something red appear by the end of my vision, and then nothing.
No sound. No street in the city. No feeling of up or down.
Nothing.
Just pure black, and white noise.
Not even sense of controlling your own body. Just like been keep in a strange limbo. Or like been in between consciousness to sleep but not really awake and not really sleeping. Just between.
Later I will understand that I just die. And maybe crossing the street with the music loud in the the headphones wasn't my best idea either
Just my luck that the song happen to be 'leave out all the rest'.or is it just karma that want to have a laugh at my misfortune? Maybe both
Lady Luck was never really nice to me to begins with. I just always found myself in those ridicules situations No matter what I do. And it was my lucky day that I die because of my own music
Yay
Maybe it was that thought that has awaken in me a storm of emotions panic, anger, alarmed, annoyance, sadness, shock, confusion, fear.
Yes, fear.
I was terrified of what happened to me. Of what will come of me. Will I be sent to heaven, or be stuck in this strange place forever?. I'll admit that I'm not a great believer of heaven or hell, of after life in dead or anything of that notion. And I'm pretty sure I haven't done any terrible things in my (short) life as I have always like to help others. I just thought that if I die then it's a game over.
Apparently even in death my stubbornness wouldn't fade away as I refuse to accepted my end of story. I struggle to move my body, kicking at the nothingness, trying to scramble to awareness again, attempting to brush away the darkness.
To get my life back
In that moment my surrounding began to move. A sudden warmth surrounded me as the walls ( these are walls?) seems to squeeze me and pushing at all sides, making me go forward to the light ( is that what they mean "the light at the end of the tunnel"?).
And in that moment of my raising panic ( OhGodDidIDieI'mDeadNowDead) I was out. Not sure how I know that but as I try to open my eyes the light were too blinding no longer was the white noise in my ears but there were what sound like voices that was shuttered like listening under water.
I was out.
I cheated dead
Hah! Now who's laughing now Lady Luck!
...
If only the screaming will stop it will be great for my moment. Why the hell there are screaming around me? Another moment past as I realized hands, BIG hands holding me carrying me, I realize that my panic didn't stop and in fact the screaming was coming from me.
Why was I screaming? Why can't I open my eyes? Who's hands belong to, so I can bite theme off, why was I being carry? Why can't I move? Where am I? Did I die? Live
Those were the question that flow into me, with no way to actually say theme. I tried to stop my whining, so that I can focus on my surrounding. It help as I could feel the giants hands envelop me in something warm (I didn't realize I was freezing).but I could still hear the vague crying of( obviously ) someone else.
It sound like a new born baby crying. Wait.
I sounded like a new born baby
Me. A 22 college medical student. Crying like a baby. Literally. Well I'm a girl but It does not give the reason for ME to cry like a BABY. No way in hell
In my moment of confusion, I was been given to another set of big arms this time not to be carry away again. Words that made no sense to me are spoken above my head. The crying one was now more close to me but starting to fade as the arms that hold us ( so we are this little to be hold like this?) start to move in a calming way that even I start to feel at ease
From what I did catch were the words; "anta", "kurosakisan", "Ishin","Masaki","ichigo", and "natsuko".The last two were been spoken more often towards us. To say I was surprise was understatement, because something 'click' in my mind at those words
It obviously not English and from the few class of language and watching anime definitely Japanese, but that not what bring me to a brute-stop, no, it was the names.
Now you can say it was just a funny coincident, but if my(blurry mind you) eyes aren't delusion me then the two persons above me are the supposed character of an anime called bleach,parents to the protagonist of the anime, and now my parents as I realize, then I found myself in the most impossible/ridicules/horrifying situation I have ever been before.
Hehe, definitely Lady Luck and mister fate are getting a hard laugh right now for my realization of how deep in the shit I am.
And so my new life as Kurosaki Natsumi, twin to Kurosaki Ichigo began with me bursting into tears like the baby I am. Can you imagine my excitement.
No? Me neither.
