Well everyone here is my very first Bleach story. It's a HitsuxOc and it's my updated version. Same plot, same people, just no longer one big chapter. I want to say thank you to all the dedicated readers who have been patient with me and my laziness, well not lazy just really busy. But to all you new readers I want to say welcome and and enjoy and please R&R. I'm not going to put an intro to every chapter (not enough time) but at the end of the story there is a new feature. I'd tell you but I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise, but I'll give you a hint, #2! Well if you figure it out good job! If you don't then read on! Hope you like! Disclaimer: I do not own bleach, and thank goodness I don't.
Beeping in the background brought me out of my dream and into reality. Ugh, morning already? I think as I roll over. Five more minutes, then I'll get up. Closing my eyes I drift back to sleep when icy water rains on my head. Jolting forward I grab the closet thing, my lamp, and swing towards my attacker. A yelp confirms that I made contact and I open my eyes. "You idiot! What was that for?" Staring at her I was puzzled by her position. One arm was holding her stomach while the other was pushing herself up. What's wrong with her? I wonder when I realize what happened "Oh, well don't be expecting an apology because you asked for it." I snarl ringing out my hair onto my soaked pillow.
"What do you mean! What did I do?" Her voice increases in volume as she rubs her side, which is probably turning into a bruise.
"You dumped water on my head! What am I supposed to say, thank you?" We were both screaming now, both poised to attack.
"How else am I supposed to wake you up when the bell doesn't?" Myaname has a short temper and little patience for anything but I don't care. Staring at my older sister I notice that she has just woken up. Her long black hair is wavy and frizzy instead of its usual straight and smooth, not to mention she hasn't put on any make-up. Being 16 she is 3 years older than me, but she thinks that it gives her the right to boss me around like her personal servant.
"I don't need to be woken Mya, I can take care of myself."
"Ya right. If you're late one more time master is going to be very unhappy."Her hand was resting on her hilt as mine grasped my sword when the door slides open. "What is going on?" His voice rang with irritation. Throwing a glare at Myaname I look up at Koriuno, his blue eyes taking in the scene before him through his thick brown hair. I notice that his eyes linger on my soaked pillow and my dripping blond hair, with a sigh he looks at Mya "You know you're not to wake Kari up. It's her own fault is she is late." Shock covered her face as she looked at our older brother innocently.
"Seriously, I try to help my little sister by waking her up so she isn't late, again" she mentions with a pointed look in my direction, "for today's lesson and I..." I interrupt her before she can go on, "Not this again, why do you continue to use that lame excuse?"
"Shut up! I'm talking here!" She yells at me but turns back to her charade. "Why do I always get yelled at for…"
"Oh be quiet all ready." A jab to her side from our brother sends her crouching in pain. Not even looking up she swings out her leg hitting him in the back of his knees which catches him by surprise. Clenching my fists and closing my eyes I try hard to calm down. At this rate a whole brawl will start in my room. I think urgently as I grab my stones that I keep hidden in my drawers for these situations, or if someone sneaks in. Chucking them slightly I hit both of them neatly on the forehead.
"Ow, Kari, why did you do that?" Koriuno places a hand on the spot that is beginning to turn red.
"Why you little brat," Looking out of the corner of my eye I see Mya begin to grab the stone that just hit her in the head. As she raises her arm to throw it drops suddenly as the bell rings twice, the warning bell. "Ah, crap already?" She half mumbles to herself as she drops the stone and runs out of my room complaining about her hair and the amount of time. "Kari," I look at him automatically and see his eyes full of concern, "don't be late again." He walks out, closing my door behind him.
I pull out of bed and set the stones back in the drawer, "I knew these would come in handy." I think out loud as I pull on my clothes. Pulling a brush through my hair I pin it behind my ears, keeping it out of my brown eyes. Opening my door I take off down the hall and enter the courtyard just before Master walks in. He has graying hair and can barely walk but can still move around freely. His glasses sit perfectly on his face while his sword rest on his hip like all of ours. Well, except for Myaname's, I glance at her and see hers resting on her back. How did she get ready and make it here before me? I think gawking at her perfect hair and make-up, which would've taken me over an hour to do.
"Today you will have the same task but will be on your own in different locations." Though he may be old his voice is as strong as ever, "Myaname, you will be in the mountains." Our missions are mostly always the same, eliminate the hollows. "Right," She nods respectively, pulls out of her body and heads for the rocky terrain.
"Koriuno,"
"Yes master?" He's always so formal, I think rolling my eyes. "You will go to the eastern woods" Nodding my brother does the same as Mya and soon his body is lying on the ground along with hers. Turning to he puts a hand on my shoulder, "It's so nice of you to be on time for the lesson Kari." I could hear the accusation in his tone and lower my head in apology, "I am sorry for all of absences."
"Well at least you're here now. You will go to the North forest."
"Okay." I turn and exit my body as Master calls to me, "Oh and Kari?"
"Yes?" I halt and turn, "Please, try not to burn down the forest. Koriuno had a hard time putting out your last one." His face is dead serious but his eyes betray him as laughter puts a sparkle in his eye.
Blushing with embarrassment I nod, "Of course, I'll try to keep Niricame under control." Nodding back to me I turn and run into the trees, but why did he look so sad?
