Whiskey Lullaby
i wish i could just let my glass shatter instead of spider webbing. "it hurts you know."he whispered to his friends at the table."ichigo what are you talking about?"asked inoue."m-my chest hurts...right, right here."ichigo said and pointed to his heart. Ichigos ex renji was caught cheating on ichigo by none other than ichigo himself. Ichigo just ran. He never left the human world. He never answered when renji called. He began to lock himself away in his room for long peirods of time.,And now even rukia could eaisly lift up the broken boy."i-i cant beleive this."Ichigo continued and when a certain red head sat down ichigo was away from the table in a flash. His eyes were solid when the red head was around but soon as he was gone ichigos eyes showed all the hurt at the table sat quietly thinking about what ichigo had said to them and when renji disturbed the peace."Hows he doing?" He asked with worrie eminant in his voice."He's broken renji..."Rukia said to the red head as she looked at the rest of the group whose eyes showed the same ,Pain,Regret."I'll go check on him."Chad said and left as he began to search for ichigo. When he found ichigo he had his back against a wall while four guys were beating the shit out of him. But ichigo didnt even defend himself."Oi." Chad called as his fist connected with one of the males and sent them crashing in to another. He then kicked another in to the last one standing and picked up the now bloody ichigo and brought him back to the lunch room. He sat ichigo down in the empty seat next to rukia and renji while ichigos eyes were glazed over and his mental wall surrounding his words."I-ichigo"Renjis voice took on that of a gentle tone. But ichigo stayed impassive. All eyes in the lunch room were on the orangett who simply looked up in to renjis eyes and asked."What is life when one never had anything to live for?" And with that renjis eyes widened. As ichigo continued he shocked everyone."Why do we hurt? We hurt to know we are still human right, If so then why dosent it hurt any more for me? These wounds, "He pointed to his bloody body"They dont hurt, They not have any feeling."He said holding his hand up to examine the blood on it."When we bleed it dosent actualy hurt, It just makes you believe your hurt when you arent. Human, why are we human? We are all just animals" He said as he stood up and looked over all the faces in the lunch room."We dont live, We just move. Our souls are all damned in the end." He said as he began walking to the doors and once he reached them he turned and smiled at everyone. "Good bye everyone. I do not think i shall see you again." Then he was gone."ICHIGO!"Renji shouted and chased after the boy."la,lalalalala, lalalalalala"Ichigo sang the whiskey lulaby as he walked away from the town he grew up in the shouting of his friends fading in to the distance. "I cant find him any where."Rukia called to chad who pointed to the hill that the orangett was standing on looking down at them. He smiled and waved to them and turned and walked away as tears fell from his chocolate colored eyes. Ichigo then held out his hand to the hells butterfly that flew close to him. The message it held was from renji."Ichigo please come back,please dont go. If you go i, i wont forgive you or myself."Renjis voice was sad and chilled. Ichigos reply was a song, renji heard ichigo humming, one day while they were together.'"She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind Until the night He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away her memory Life is short, but this time it was bigger Than the strength he had to get up off his knees We found him with his face down in the pillow With a note that said, 'I'll love her till I die.' And when we buried him beneath the willow The angels sang a whiskey lullaby The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath She finally drank her pain away a little at a time But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind Until the night She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away his memory Life is short, but this time it was bigger Than the strength she had to get up off her knees We found her with her face down in the pillow Clinging to his picture for dear life We laid her next to him beneath the willow While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby."'And when renji looked up he saw ichigos body fall to the ground as his soul chain became pure white peral beads and his soul chain snapped from his body. The butter fly landed on renjis finger with ichigos last words."Goodbye renji, I hope you and bakuguya are happy, And ill miss you and everyone." Then ichigo was gone and renji watched as his body turned to ash."Ichigo" Renji said as the image of ichigo glanceing back one last time toward him with tears running down his cheeks.~To ichigo~ He was running with the beaded soul chain waving behind him as he ran to the deepest part of the cave kitsuki called the stone souls room. As ichigo eased up on to the stone and fell asleep his legs became stone and ichigo was soon frozen with a single tear on his cheek and a scoowl on his face, as he was now part of the rock. Ichigo still held a photo of renji when he froze but it floated to the ground.
200 Years later
The sound of rushing water hit ichigos ears as soon as he woke up. He was still laying on the rock in the cave and he was in a purple lace dress. Tears that were once frozen then began to fall as ichigo remembered the previous happenings. As ichigo walked out of the cave he fell in to a large pool of water and found that he could breath under it. As people began to gather and swim around in the pool ichigo recognized one of the people as none other than Renji Abarai."Theres something in the water!" some one called as ichigo accedentaly touched their foot."what was it?" asked one man."it felt like flesh!"the woman said in a panicky voice as she flailed around."oh come on rukia nothing lives here anymore." said another man. then ichigo went and pulled one of the other women down under the water and made a sushing motion to the girl who he recognized as the arancar nellie. then he pulled her to the bottom and pushed her in to a small cave under water that was dry."ITSYGO"she screamed and hugged him very tughtly."N-Nel i need you to pretend you saw a really scary monster and freak everyone else out and dont mention me at all ok?" ichigo asked the fully grown girl who gave him a very enthusiastic grin and dove back to the surface and began screaming her head off."OH my god it was so scary it was this weird looking monster"She began as she scrambled out of the water looking terrifyed and backed away from its depths and then said"it took my necklace too."she whined and rukia and the others hurried to get out of the water."Ohmygod nel did it hurt you?"rukia asked."N-No it just pulled me under and took my only necklace." she said and began watching the water before ichigo jumped out of the water and grabbed rukia and pulled her under holding her mouth and eyes shut."shhhhhhh" he whispered in her ear."rukia" someone shouted and dove in to the water after them. soon after ichigo let rukia go to the surface as he realized that the person who dove in was renji and he swam in to the cave and lay saw him swim there and followed to surface in the cave and see a deep sleeping form of ichigo."I-Ichi?" he questioned as he lifted him self on to the floor and walked over to ichigo who in turn opened his eyes and shot up in alarm."Ichigo its okay its me." renji said as he scooted closer to ichigo who took that chance to dive in to the water and swim back to the shore. but before he could fully make it there he was caught by renji who grabed him around the waist and pulled him on to the shore. the people gasped except for nel. ichigo gasped for air as his lungs dejected the water within them."Get away from me" he said as he backed away in to a tree. then he handed nel her necklace and ran. Luckly ichigo also gained a power of swiftness so he ran very fast and the others tryed to shunpo their way to him but he just didnt stop running untill he got to a steep fall straight down 7 miles as a drop off."Ichigo" renji called as he panted next to rukia, nel, masmoto, ikkaiku, yumikuchi, shuheil,grimmjow,inoue,chad, and bakuguya. "Stay away from me, Demons." ichigo hissed to the group as he stepped back and almost lost his balance."ichigo wait" bakuguya said as he took a step forward and ichigo replyed"no more waiting, im going forward." he then lept off the edge and began falling as grimmjow lept off and followed landed and took off running with barley any sign of impact. "you cant run forever."grimmjow said and tackled ichigo over a waterfall."i dont know about you but i can breath under water."ichigo said as they hit the surface. a loud splash sounded as the rest of the group ran up to the surfaced and passed out on the shore as ichigo trotted up the bank and placed something in grimmjows mouth causing him to jump back to concuiusness and almost grab ichigo."i wont go back." ichigos voice could be heard clearly over the raging falls as the group made their way down to the two."im never going to be held baqck again."ichigo said with as much hate in his words as possible. then he dissapeared.
