Darian Pov.

Everyone wondered why I didn't like her. They all had suspicions, but none were correct. In fact I had spent one entire afternoon pondering the thought myself. I had realized but I made a list.

I didn't like her because she had taken my life away from me, but I still lived on. It was annoying and she was self-centered. Then on the last path, I had heard whispers.

"Naruto, shut up, she is gonna hear us,"

"Sorry Sakura,"

"Will you both just shut up," I looked over at the bush.

"Sure Sasuke, oh crud she's looking our way," I walked over and moved it away. Three kids about my age sat there.

"Hi, I would appreciate it if you stalked me when I'm not having such a bad day," I said. I saw there headbands and took a small step back. "Those headbands..."

"These are collectables, we like to wear them," said the girl.

"You are ninja from the hidden leaf village," I whispered.

"yeah, we are," said the black haired boy.

"Sasuke!?" screamed the blonde boy and the girl.

"I guess it is over, this mission is failed. I am Sasu-" I interrupted.

"Sasuke Uchiha, Genin, or perhaps you are still in the academy. You family was killed by your brother Itachi Uchiha and he didn't kill you. You want to kill him and avenge your family, but in truth you do not know that he killed them because it was not to test his skill but to make sure that the Uchiha's did not take over Konoha," I said.

"How did you know that?"

"I am Sakura haru-" I interrupted her as well.

"Sakura Haruno, you are the same rank as Sasuke and Naruto, the boy right there. You love Sasuke and you used to be best friends with Ino Yamanaka until you found out she had a crush on Sasuke as well. You used to get made fun of because of your un-average forehead being called billboard brow," she starred at me with confusion.

"And I am Naru-" I interrupted him.

"Naruto Uzumaki, son of the fourth hokage. You have the nine tail demon fox that had attacked the leaf village locked inside of you. Your hero is Iruka-sensi. You are friends with Sakura haruno, Sasuke Uchiha, Choji Akimichi, Shikamaru Nara, and many more ninja from both the hidden leaf, the hidden mist, the hidden sand and many more villages. You do not realize that Hinata Hyuuga is in love with, when ever she blushes or acts shy around you; you think she is just being weird. You have a crush on Sakura Haruno,"

"Ummm,"

"oh yeah and Sakura has Inner Sakura, the part of her that says what she wants to say but can't say. Naruto's saying is "Believe it!" and Sasuke doesn't really like to socialize, just train to become stronger so as to kill Itachi," they stared at me.

"How did you know all of that?" asked Sakura.

"In my country, you are fictional characters. I have done research on you all," I said.

"Creepy," said Naruto.

"Darian?" I heard a voice from behind me. I turned around see Ryan standing behind me.

"Hi," I said.

"Who are they?" he asked.

"I am Sakura Haruno, This is Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki," she said.

"Oh, what school do you go to?" he asked.

"They are going to be starting at LT soon, they are English students as well, so now they will know two people there," I said.

"Cool,"

"Yeah, see you when school starts up on Monday!" I said. He nodded and continued down the path.

"So..." said Sasuke.

"Where have you guys been staying?" I asked them.

"Outside in the cold," said Sakura.

"I am surprised you are still alive," I said. They nodded slightly.

"We have been fine actually, we go into stores at lunch to warm up and stay inside the school during the rainy times," said Naruto.

"Wait, why are you three even here?" I asked.

"Orochimaru," they said. "He wants to use you, and turn you into a weapon for mass destruction to the leaf, we haven't meet him yet, but according to the third hokage he is deadly," I stood there shocked.

"What rank are you?" I had asked them.

"We are all still in the academy,"

"But I'm not," came a voice from behind. I froze.

"Kabuto," I whispered under my breath. I didn't have to turn around and check because I already knew who it was.

"Kabuto, don't play with the girl, I need her," came another voice. It was familiar and I knew it, It sound like the Japanese voice for him in the anime.

"Orochimaru,"

Darian Pov.

I stood there shocked. Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke stood in a stance.

"Orochimaru," I said under my breath.

"Oh, so you know who I am? Excellent, because what ever they are telling you about me is wrong. They want to put you to death, I just want to make you stronger so you can impress the guy you like," I turned around.

"No you don't," he started some hand signs; I froze and stood there in shock.

"Then I'll just have to use the Uchiha boy,"

"NO!" I screamed. He did the final hand sign, the set he did was from the Chunin exams, I recognized it from when he had given Sasuke the curse mark. Orochimaru's neck stretched and went to bite Sasuke. I picked up a rock and threw it at him. Then, I ran up and kicked his stretched throat. His head went in its normal position.

"You little brat," he screamed.

"One of the legendary Sannin such as you should be ashamed. I won't let you put a mark on anyone else! You already destroyed Anko-sensi; you won't get me, Sakura, Naruto and defiantly not Sasuke. You are not going to break Sakura's heart!" I screamed. Ryan ran up to see what was wrong. Apparently he had just gotten off the last path to my house when Orochimaru had showed up and all.

"Darian," I heard him whisper.

"Now its my turn," I said. Inu, Tori, usagi, Uma, I looked up as I did the last hand sign. "Hebi," I whispered under my breath. "Dance of the leaves!" I screamed. The jutsu I had made when I had first started to watch Naruto worked. The leaves flew from the ground and had made a barrier that only I could escape. "Attack number 46," I said to them. They moved swiftly and attacked Kabuto and Orochimaru.

"You won't get away with this you little brat," said Kabuto as him and Orochimaru disappeared.

"For all they know, I will get away with it, and they won't return," I said.

"Darian, What was that?" asked Ryan.

"Ryan? That was, ummm," A large crash came from the elementary school.

"What the hell?" screamed Ryan.

"My little sister!" I screamed. "I'll tell you later, I have to go save my little sister!"Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura all ran after me.

We had reached the school within seconds, but the school was crumbled.

"Rukia!" screamed Ichigo kurosaki. "Shit," he whispered. A hallow brought his hand down.

"What the hell is that thing?" screamed Naruto.

"You can see the hallow? What about Ichigo?" I asked.

"Yeah I can see red head. Why wouldn't I?" The hallow went straight for Ichigo.

"Shit," I whispered. "ICHIGO USE BANAKI!" he looked over and nodded.

"Darian," said my little sister as she ran up to me. Her skin was covered in cuts and bruises.

"Thank goodness Danielle," I said.

"We have to go, Mom is home but she needs us there," she said.

"I'll come home later, tell her im going to hang with my new friends from school," she nodded and ran down the path.

"We have to help him," said Sakura. (The reason this is a Sakura Ichigo is because they are the two trying to persuade darian to join there side) Sasuke, Naruto and I all nodded. A girl with black hair ran up to us.

"Who the hell are you?" she asked.

"Dar-"

"Darian rudderham? It is after you," she said. "You have to leave. If you stay then you will bring out your inner soul reaper. Now hurry!"

"No," I said.

"Rukia, I am gonna help you and Ichigo," I said.

"How do you know our names?"

"Rukia, you and Ichigo are from an anime called Bleach; I know a lot more about you than you know yourself," I told her in a soft, calming voice. She stared at me.

"How do I turn into a soul reaper?" I asked her.

"I don't know," she said. "it just happens. You won't be able to take Ichigo's powers though like..."

"He took yours with your zanpakuto.... I know," I said. I ran forward toward the hallow, I noticed a pole on the ground and picked it up, It had a sharp end and it was perfect to use as a sword. "LAY OFF!!!" I screamed as I jumped as high as I could, slicing off the hallows leg, It fell to the ground in pain, crying and howling. It's leg started to grow back quickly.

"WHAT THE HELL??" screamed Ichigo.

"What the heck is happening?" I screamed. Then I heard a scream as I disappeared from the world of the living, and into the invisible state of being a soul reaper. I wore the very large kimono like clothing and carried a sword as long as Rukias'. It was red with a flame shaped hilt. The tsuba was as red as blood.

"Oni no chi," I whispered. Rukia stared at me as my eyes widened with fear.

"Darian?" she said.

"Bankai!" I screamed. I wore a blood red kimono with a pink lace across the bottom. I lifted my sword above my head, but it was almost as if it was involuntary.

"sakebu Oni," I screamed, the sword broke into fiery pieces, that sopread across and sliced the hallow to bits.

"Wow,"

Darian Pov.

I had awoken from a restless sleep. I sat up with a jolt.

"What happened?" I asked. Sasuke walked into the room.

"You guys, she woke up," My parents, my little sister and the rest of the future team seven ran in.

"Thank the lord," said my mother.

"What happened?" I asked again.

"When you were hanging out with Naruto and them, you hit your head and collapsed. You don't have a concussion or anything but you need your rest," said my dad. Sakura looked at me and shot me a 'I'll tell you later' look. I nodded.

"Now I remember," I said.

A few days passed and I was going to school, Naruto, Sakura and Sasuke had been going to keep up appearances for Ryan.

"Darian you're finally back," said my friend Tori. I smiled.

"Yeah, How have Sakura, Naruto and Sasuke been doing?" I asked her.

"You do know them? I thought they were just kidding," She said. I shook my head.

"No, they weren't and they know Ryan too," I said. Ryan ran up to me and grabbed my arm. "Hey!" I said angrily.

"You said you would explain what happened to me later, it's later," he said. My old friend Tori-Ann(not the same Tori from before) stared at me angrily. She was going out with Ryan, so she wasn't to happy.

"Fine, but on the walk home," I said.

"I'm walking Tori-Ann home though," he said.

"Then you won't know anything," I said.

School flew by and everything was making me feel constricted. Naruto brought Ramen for lunch, and Sakura and Sasuke brought five dollars each. We walked over to the NEEDS by the school to get some food with my friend Kali (pronounced Kay Lee).

All of a sudden, while we were hanging out at the met field, just down the street from the school, I dropped to the ground screaming. Ryan was skateboarding; he jumped off his board, picked it up and ran over.

"Darian, is it Dae?" asked Kali. I nodded.

"Dammit Dae, will you stop this vision, hold it back! Quickly," I screamed. People started to crowed around.

"Who is Dae? Kali, who is she?" asked Sasuke and Ryan in Unison. I could hear there voices in the back of my head.

"Dae is who Darian was reincarnated into," she said. "Half of Darian's soul is not hers." I snapped back into reality. Sakura had a frown on her face.

"You knew, didn't Sakura?" I asked her. She nodded.

"You know how to stop the visions Darian. You have to tell Ryan the truth," She pointed at him. I slowly stood up.

"What does she mean the truth darian?" he asked.

"I have to tell you one thing, that I am not ready to tell you,"

"We have two minutes until the bell rings you guys," said kali.

"I have to go," I said, turning around. Ryan grabbed my arm.

"Just tell me Darian," he said.

Sasuke Pov.

Darian stood there with her head in her hands crying. The sight was startling, considering I found her so strong. I never thought she would cry so easily.

"I love you," she whispered faintly. I froze.

"You do?" said the boy that stood before her. She nodded her head softly.

"We have to go," I said, grabbing Sakura and Darian's arms. Naruto tailed after us. We had a few minutes until class started and it would only take us a few seconds to get to class considering our stuff was already up there. I threw her up against the wall.

"Sasuke!" said Sakura.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" screamed Naruto.

"What the hell does she think she is doing? If Orochimaru finds out about the fact that you love him, he will die by his hand. This is not a joke," I screamed at her impatiently.

"Sasuke?" whispered Sakura. All of a sudden there was a thud and darian dropped to the ground covering her ears.

"That scream," She said. Her hands tightened. "We have to save everyone before it's to late." She jumped up and ran off.

"Wait up," screamed Naruto. We ran up to the church across from the school. There sat a young girl, her head was in here hands crying.

"Rosin," Screamed Darian running up to her. Darian's body collapsed onto the ground and her soul reaper form stood there. Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki stood there as well.

"You sensed it too?" asked Rukia.

"No, I heard it scream," She said.

"This should only take a few seconds with my Bankai," said Ichigo, he reached for his sword. Darian put up her hand.

"No it should only take 1 second with mine. Save your strength, it's unneeded here," she said.

"What the hell! ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE! YOU ARE THIRTEEN YEARS OLD, YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO SURVIVE THIS!" screamed Ichigo.

"Oni no chi," Said Darian as she reached for her sword. A red light sparkled and she transformed into her Bankai.

"Wow," I whispered.

"SAKEBU ONI!" she screamed. Ichigo tried to stop her. She spoke in Japanese to get the message through. "watashi ha kizutsui te hoshiku nai desu. watashi ha zannen desu ga, kore ha mina o hogo suru tame ni watashi ga shi nakere ba nara nai nani ka desu!" In other words she said to him I don't want you to get hurt. I'm sorry but this is something I must do to protect everyone!

Darian Pov.

Days had passed since the last battle, and I hadn't told Ryan everything I wanted to. He didn't speak Japanese so I knew just how to say it to him. But it had to be in writing.

I took out a piece of paper and wrote the following words:

watashi ha watashi ga aishi ta koto o ii mashi ta. shikashi zenbu no jijitsu ha watashi ga arayuru gengo no anata ni ii koto ga dekiru you ni kore ha nikui koto o ishiki suru koto o watashi ga iu hitsuyou ga aru watashi ha nozomu nani ka ta no mono ga aru koto de ari. shikashi watashi ha seishin no shuukaku sha desu. watashi ha watashi ga iu to, sou soko ni iki masu yakusoku shi mashi ta. massugu ni no ue de oyobi, shinjitsu. shikashi jissai ha mata, watashi ha kakusa re ta ha no ninja desu. kore ha watashi ga sore o sore ha shinjitsu de ari, shitte iru ga, kore ga watashi ga kousei suru nani ka de ha nai koto o ishiki shi nakere ba nari mase n mangas kara kanzen ni ki te i masu. watashi ha jissai ha toshi no kore sou osoku, watashi ga choudo shirabe ta ga koto o iu koto o nikumi masu. sou mina no koto ha, watashi ga imi suru 3 nin no atarashii kodomo ari masu. shitagatte watashi ga iwa nakere ba nara nakatta mono o o e mase n osore te iru ni yorokobashi te kudasai. onegai shi masu.

Darian

I prayed that he would find it before Orochimaru had found him.
