Disclaimer- Why do I have to put up a disclaimer when this is FAN fiction?! The very name of the website implies that these are just fans, but whatever I put up the disclaimer and I am NOT going to again. Got it?! I don't own Bleach and thats the end of it!

Okay spas moment over. Hi! I'm KELScium and this! Shiny! Shiny! is the first chapter of Karakura High! Yay! Confetti! ...I wish it was that good, but hey it's a work in progress. I worked really hard on this and edited and edited and had other people edit it and then I edited some more. I actually have several chapters written so far, but I have yet to finish editing hehe D well anyway here you go! What are you waiting for?! READ!!

Chapter 1

Hitsugaya Toshiro stood under the picnic area roof watching the rain pour down, drenching everything underneath it. The lightning flashed brightly followed by a loud crash that made him shiver. Deadly, but beautiful.

"Hitsugaya-Sempai!" Toshiro turned to see Masumoto Rangiku running at him. A split second later he was on the ground, Masumoto on top of him.

"MASUMOTO!" he yelled at her.

"Sorry Sempai. I guess i put too much force on that glomp," she giggled.

"Masumoto?"

"Yes, Sempai?"

"GET OFF OF ME!" he yelled at her again.

"Oh! Sorry Sempai!" she jumped up and giggled some more.

"Rangiku-chan, Shiro-chan, you should stay away from the edge, you could get hit by lightning," The shy, quiet Hinamori Momo said from behind them.

"That's Hitsugaya-sempai to you!" Toshiro snapped, still irritated.

"Oh, come on, Sempai! You've known Momo-chan for forever! How come you're so mean?" Rangiku complained.

"I am not mean! I just hate being called Shiro-chan!"

"Hey! Get over here! We're going to sing now!" came a voice from the center table of the picnic area. Kurosaki Ichigo waved them over to the group now surrounding the cake.

"We're coming!" Rangiku linked her arms through Toshiro and Momo's arms and pulled them toward the table.

"Ready everyone?" Ichigo asked, everyone nodded and took a breath.

'Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Birthday Dear Rukia/Kuchiki-san

Happy Birthday to you!'

Kuchiki Rukia blushed and sat there as everyone sang to her. "Thank you everyone. It means a lot," she stated before blowing out the candles. She looked up at everyone who came to celebrate with her: Ichigo and his family (who were like a second family to her), Byakuya-nii-san, and all of her friends. They are all here for me. I'm so lucky I have such great friends. She smiled as she cut the cake for her friends.

"I'll cut the cake, Rukia. " Ichigo said taking away the knife and sliding the cake over toward him.

"It's fine, Ichigo. I can cut the cake."

"No, Rukia. You're the birthday girl."

"Oh! So, because I'm a girl means I can't use a knife, huh?!"

"No! I didn't say that!"

"Yes you did!"

"No I didn't! Stop twisting everything I say into something offensive!"

"I do not over react!"

"I didn't say that! You're twisting my words again!"

"I'm not over reacting!"

Inoue Orihime stared sadly at the bickering couple. They are so close. I wish I was that close with Kurosaki-kun. Orihime sighed and grabbed a piece of cake that Rukia had cut before she and Ichigo started arguing.

"Hey Orihime, lets go over there, away from their annoying arguing. Hmm?" Arisawa Tatsuki placed a comforting hand on Orihime's shoulder; she knew when something bothered her best friend.

"Okay. Wait! I need a topping for my cake first!" Orihime crossed to the other end of the table where the condiments were. Along with Ichigo and Rukia. She looked away from them as she grabbed a bottle of ketchup.

"That looks interesting, Inoue-san." Orihime looked up at her friend Ishida Uryu. He felt sick just looking at Orihime's chocolate cake, ketchup, and relish combination.

"Oh, would you like to try it Ishida-kun? It's really good!" She held her plate out to him.

"N-n-no, that's okay, more for you," he said quickly; the last time he tried one of her weird food combinations he was sick for 3 days.

"I'll try some! Itadakimasu!" Rangiku jumped out of nowhere and stuck a fork into Orihime's cake. "Oh my gosh! This is really good! You have such an interesting taste Orihime-chan!"

"I'm glad you like it Rangiku-san!"

"Rangiku-chan! Use 'chan' were practically best friends!"

"Okay, Rangiku-chan!" Orihime smiled and went back to Tatsuki who was talking to Abarai Renji.

"They never stop do they?" Renji said.

"Nope. We're going to be here until tomorrow while they argue over cutting the cake."

"The argument isn't even about cake anymore!" Renji complained glancing at Rukia who just stated something about Chappy Bunny being the best creation ever. He rolled his eyes, grabbed a plastic knife and slid the cake over toward him so he could cut it, Rukia and Ichigo didn't notice a thing. Renji gave the first piece to Tatsuki.

"There you go. Sorry about the wait," he gave her a toothy grin.

"You were the one complaining, Eyebrows," she teased.

"Whatever Arisawa-kohai." He handed a piece to Yasutora Sado, "There you go, Chado."

"Thanks Renji-san," he said walking away.

"KOHAI?! You did not just call me kohai!" Tatsuki started to roll up her sleeves, but Orihime put a hand on her shoulder.

"Tatsuki-chan. Let's go sit down," she smiled sweetly to Tatsuki.

"All right." She calmed down and smiled back, before turning around to give Renji a death glare. "Don't think you're getting off that easily, Eyebrows! Just wait until karate club!"

"Oh, shit," he mumbled to himself. Tatsuki was the karate club captain and man, was she a tough captain. She's going to kill me tomorrow. Please forget I called you kohai! Why the hell does she get so worked up when I call her that anyway? He turned back to cutting the cake and handing out pieces to everyone.

"Kuchiki-sempai? Would you like a piece?" Renji asked his old role model, Kuchiki Byakuya.

When he was little he looked up to Byakuya, wanting to surpass him with all his might. Renji had hoped that when he did, Byakuya would approve of him and would allow him to go out with his little sister, Rukia, Renji's childhood friend. However, Renji gave up on this after his 3rd year of junior high school when he realized it was pointless. Rukia had Ichigo, and he had to move on. Ichigo better take good care of her, or I'll beat him to a pulp. I might have to though, since it's taking so long for them to get together. ASK HER OUT ALREADY,BAKA!

"Abarai-kohai?"

"Huh?" Renji snapped out of his thoughts. "Sorry. What did you say Kuchiki-sempai?"

"I'll have a piece."

"Oh, yeah, here." He handed Byakuya the piece he just cut.

"I'll have some too, Funny-Eyebrow-chan!" Renji looked down at the pink haired chibi next to him. "And cut one for Ken-chan, too!"

Kusajishi Yachiru bounded over to Zaraki Kenpachi and Chado, holding two pieces of cake.

"I've got the cake!" she shouted to them. "It looks really yummy!"

"It is pretty good," Chado agreed, taking an enormous bite of his cake.

"Here you go, Ken-chan! I made sure you got the bigger piece!" she smiled.

"Thanks Yachiru, but you can have the big piece. I wanted a small piece anyway," Kenpachi took the small piece from Yachiru.

"Thanks, Ken-chan!" Yachiru exclaimed.

She's such a cute kid, Kenpachi thought. Even though she really isn't a kid. Yachiru was actually a 2nd year student at Karakura High, despite her shortness.

Kenpachi and Yachiru were childhood friends, but he felt that she was more like a little sister. In a way she is, since they both live together. When he ran away from home and found Yachiru alone on the street, he had to take her in. Kenpachi supports both of them with his several part time jobs after school. As soon as he finishes high school, he will be able to take a full time job. Then he can earn money so Yachiru can go to University. She's gonna hate me when she finds out that's what I'm planning on doing with the money I'm saving, but it'll be worth it. I'll save up for myself after.

"Ken-chan, it's good right?" Yachiru said smiling.

"Yeah," he replied, taking his first bite.

"Here, Yachiru, you can have the rest. I'm full." Chado looked down and stuck out his piece of cake to Yachiru's face.

"Thanks, Chado-chan!" Yachiru happily took the half eaten cake from Chado and stuffed her face. Chado smiled at her cuteness.

So, big Chado is interested in little Yachiru, eh? No wonder he's been hanging out around her more. I'm gonna have to have a talk with him then. Kenpachi smirked to himself. This will be fun.

Kurosaki Karin stood at the end of the picnic area, far away from everyone else. She stared at the rain utterly depressed for there was lightning. Rain, fine, I can play in the rain. In fact it's better in the rain, but lightning, not if I wanted to get myself killed. Being in an open field while it was raining and lightning, smart. Completely frustrated with the fact that she couldn't play soccer she kicked the ball at her feet as hard as she could. It flew into the rain. Shit! I saved up for weeks to buy that ball! Without a second thought she ran after it. Running into the cold heavy rain. Wow, it's raining really hard... It's nice. She kept running, enjoying the rain as it fell on her. Lightning flashed followed by a crash of thunder. It's close. Oh crap. I'm pretty far from the picnic area. I better hurry up and get back as quickly as i can.

The lightning and thunder happened at the same time. It's REALLY close. Hurry up Karin! She couldn't move though. That last crash of thunder scared her so badly she couldn't move. The ball started to roll down a hill. It was really far away. Just hurry up and go! She tried to move, but she was too scared. Her mind flashed to the day her mom went into the thunder storm to get Ichi-nii and didn't come back.

"Don't go Kaa-san! It's scary out there!"

"I have to Karin. Your nii-chan is waiting."

"But it's scary!" She jumped as the lightning flashed through the house and started to cry.

"I'll be back Karin. Don't worry. Why don't you check on Yuzu, she's probably scared too."

"Okay." The girl ran to her sister who was hiding under a table. As their mother left to get their brother.

"Hey! Kurosaki! What the hell do you think you're doing?!" Karin tried to turn around to see who was yelling at her, but her body wouldn't let her.

"Kurosaki! Get your ass over here right now! You're going to get yourself killed!" A hand grabbed her shoulder and whipped her around to face them. Karin found herself face to face with a very wet, very pissed off Hitsugaya Toshiro. His spiky hair fell around his face and his clothes clung to his body. He was completely soaked. "What are you doing out here?! Don't tell me you plan on playing soccer in this weather!"

"N-n-no. I ca-came to get my b-ball." She started shaking. She jumped when another close crash of thunder sounded.

"Baka! Come on lets go!" Toshiro started to head back, but stopped when he noticed the frozen stiff Karin wasn't following him. She looked completely terrified. He rolled his eyes and jogged back to her. "You're gonna get hit if you stand here like this."

He noticed her ball at the bottom of the hill. He ran to get it. "Here. Come on. You have your ball. Lets go." She still didn't move.

"I-I-I'm s-scared." She shivered.

"It's just light and noise. It'll be okay." He said gently for once. Then he forced the ball into her hands and picked her up. "Lets go Kurosaki." He broke into a run.

Karin held Toshiro's shoulder in one hand and the soccer ball in the other. Eventually, she stared to calm down.

"Who said you could call me Kurosaki?" She said to him.

"Oh, sorry. Kurosaki-san," he grumbled, rolling his eyes.

"No, thats not what I meant; you can call me Karin."

"Okay, Karin-san." The picnic area started to appear in view.

"No! Come on Toshiro you've known me for a while. Just Karin."

"Okay, but I didn't say you could call me Toshiro."

"You're not going to make me call you Hitsugaya-Sempai are you?" Karin rolled her eyes.

"No, Toshiro is fine." Karin took her hand off his shoulder and 'lightly' punched it. Lightly, meaning enough to cause him to jump in surprise.

"Hey! I'm carrying you even though you're heavy! At least give me a little respect!" Toshiro snapped, angrily.

"I'm not heavy!" She punched him again, this time knocking his balance off and causing him to stumble.

You're just like Ichigo aren't you? Toshiro thought while pretending to drop her.

"ACK! NO!" Karin grabbed Toshiro's shirt and held herself close to him to keep from falling. Huh, maybe not. Toshiro sneered, and Karin punched him again.

"Karin! My precious daughter! I'm so glad you've been rescued!" Kurosaki Isshin yelled as he ran to her and Toshiro. "Thank you Hitsugaya-san for being Karin's Knight in Shining Armor!"

"Oh, put a sock in it." Karin muttered as she held her foot out to his incoming face. He hit it hard and fell to the ground.

"Well, thanks Toshiro. Sorry about freezing up on you. You can put me down down now."

"Yeah. Is he okay?" He said looking at the unconscious Isshin.

"Yeah. This happens a lot."

"Alright then." He walked away from Karin, noticing Rangiku, Kira, and Momo laughing a few tables away. When he reached them they started make a fuss about him being wet. Momo ran to get a towel for him and ruffled his hair dry with it. Then placed it on his shoulders. "Thanks Momo," Toshiro said with a small smile.

"Karin! What happened!" Yuzu demanded, coming up behind her. "Why are you all wet?"

"I accidently kicked my soccer ball into the rain. I had to go get it."

"Okay. Well lets get you dry so you don't catch a cold." Yuzu turned to Ururu and Jinta who had appeared behind her. "Can one of you guys get a towel for her?"

"I'll get it!" Jinta said a little too enthusiastically and ran off.

Yuzu giggled. "I think he was worried about you Karin."

"Actually, I think he's just showing off to Yuzu." Ururu said, smiling shyly.

"EH?! No way!" Yuzu exclaimed as a huge blush crossed her face. Ururu and Karin both laughed.

"Go Ganju-san!" Yamada Hanataro cheered for his best friend, Shiba Ganju, while he fought a mini kendo match against Madarme Ikkaku. "You can-"

BAM! Ikkaku hit Ganju on top of his head, Ganju froze for a second before limply falling to the ground unconscious.

"Ganju-san!" Hanataro ran to Ganju with the first aid kit he carried everywhere, usually for himself.

'"Ikkaku goes all out on every fight doesn't he?" Hisagi Shuuhei commented to Yumichika.

"Yeah, he's too rough. How un-beautiful." Ayasegawa Yumichika chirped, running his fingers through his pristine hair.

"Nah, he's fine, Ganju needs to toughen up anyway; he's too weak," Shiba Kukaku commented, sitting on the table cross legged.

"Is that something an older sister should say?" Asano Keigo mumbled to himself. She's like my sister!

"ALRIGHT WHO'S NEXT!?" Ikkaku yelled with an evil grin plastered on his face. "YOU KEIGO! LET'S GO!"

"M-M-Madarme! You know I can't -"

"I'll set him up!" Kojima Misuro said happily as he shoved the kendo helmet over Keigo's head.

"M-M-MISURO!"

"He's all set!" Misuro shoved Keigo into the area they had cleared for the mini match.

"ALRIGHT!" Ikkaku yelled coming at Keigo quickly.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Keigo ran.

"YOU CAN'T ESCAPE ME ASANO!"

"HELP ME! HE'S CRAZY!" Keigo shouted running around the picnic area with Ikkaku chasing him.

"They look like they're having fun, don't they?" Momo said watching Keigo and Ikkaku.

"Well, Ikkaku is." Kira Izuru replied. The two of them sat in silence. Why did Rangiku have to drag Hitsugaya-sempai off? She's the one who kept the conversations going. Izuru looked at Rangiku and Hitsugaya sitting at a table talking. Hitsugaya looked annoyed while Rangiku talked excitedly using excessive hand motions.

"So when do think this rain will clear up?" Izuru asked, desperate for some conversation.

"I don't know. It better get better or we'll be stuck here all night. Oh no! I have a date later today with Aizen-sempai!"

"Wow, you've been dating for months and you still call him Aizen-sempai?" Izuru asked, surprised.

"W-well... I just like calling him that." She smiled nervously. Not knowing herself why she called him sempai, Izuru was right she shouldn't be calling him that now.

"When is your date? It's 5 now."

"At 6, I hope it clears up soon. I need to go home and get ready."

Izuru felt his heart ache. Not now! I need to get over her now! She's got the perfect guy now, you lost your chance. She's happy anyway, that's what counts. Izuru had pounded this little chant into his head every day for the past 3 months, but it never seemed to work. He felt worse everyday, he looked pale and sick all the time and lost his energy quickly. Momo and everyone else keep telling him that he needs more sleep and needed to eat more. The only good thing about this is that Momo, who is easily worried for her friends decided to take it upon herself to pack him a huge healthy bento for lunch everyday, along with Aizen's.

"Izuru-kun, have you eaten today? You don't look well." Momo asked, "I made you a bento today, just incase." She rummaged in her bag for a moment and brought out a small bento, which she handed over to him, beaming. "I think it's the best one I've ever made."

"Thanks Momo-chan." His stomach flip flopped, gave her a small smile and took the food. She made him one today?! We don't even have school! Why is she so wonderful?! "You know you don't have to do this for me every day."

"I know, but don't like to see you unwell, it makes me want to do everything I can to help you." She gave him a shy smile and looked at her feet. "Well, how is it?"

"It's delicious. You did a great job." Izuru said through a mouthful of rice.

Kurosaki Isshin, Urahara Kisuke, Urahara Yoruichi, and Soifon sat together watching everyone laugh and have fun.

"Ah, they are certainly enjoying themselves aren't they?" Kisuke said with and arm around his wife, Yoruichi.

"Yep, their somewhat dramatic lives seem so far away now don't they?" Isshin said.

"They don't seem quiet ready yet to go back to school though, do they?" Kisuke commented.

"Yeah, well I am." Yoruichi said.

"Ready to get rid of Ururu-chan and Jinta-kun already?" Soifon asked her childhood friend.

"More than ready. Jinta doesn't help around the house at all and is always making Ururu cry. I'd like to see a lot less of that."

"Oh, you're so caring Yoruichi-chan!" Kisuke said giving his wife a squeeze.

"Oh, shut it. It's annoying thats all."

"Sure, thats the reason." Soifon said smiling at Yoruichi.

"Well, I have a feeling they will be going through a lot once they get back to school." Isshin said watching Ichigo and Rukia argue about what now sounded like plushies. Wow, they really do argue about everything. Isshin smiled to himself. Not much longer now, come on Ichigo.

"Oh, so you can see into the future Isshin!" Kisuke teased.

"Nah, I just got a strong parental feeling." Isshin responded, proud of himself and his super parental abilities, not realizing Kisuke was just joking. "Every single one of these kids is about to go on an emotional roller coaster once they get back to school."

Well, there it is! Da dada DA! ...yeah it wasn't that great... I really don't like how this chapter ended. This whole chapter was about introducing the characters I would be using so it came out kind of cheesy, especially the part with the adults commenting to each other.. I REALLY hate it! I plan on coming back to fix it later, since I've already spent hours altering it and nothing seems to be working. So I hope a fresh mind might help... maybe even a few suggestions from readers? D hint hint NUDGE!NUDGE! WOOPS! That wasn't a nudge! Sorry! Pulls reader out from wall they smashed into because of "nudge" hehe wow i'm very random and spasy today.. well i should say this morning since I'm posting this at 2:48 D hehe thanks for reading!

P.S. Sorry if updates are kind of slow... I try to be pretty harsh about my editing.. but as always stuff slips by and I have to edit multiple times... hehe BUT I'LL TRY MY BEST TO GET CHAPTERS OUT AS SOON AS I CAN! AND I SAY THIS NOW I WILL NOT ABANDON THIS STORY I PROMISE! D okay! bye bye for now!
