A/N This my first fanfic ever. Ive been on this site forever and never got around to writing my own story. The plot bunnies got to me on many occasions and would NOT let up till I typed this out FINALLY. Well here is a story that I am sure I will love very much. (probably because I love my character and I guess by the end you'll see that I really like Uryu too :P he's my favorite Bleach character)

All right here is my FanFic

DISCLAIMER: Man I don't own anything, and even if I owned just a fraction of this, I am still skeptical, you know why? Cuz I can't have nice things. Boo.

Sides Of An Angel

By: Riia

1: New Girl

Here she was again. Moving. Looking too far ahead is one thing she was trying to avoid. It was always a bad idea to look ahead when the future was unsure, when people haven't made decisions yet. Still, she couldn't help herself.

"Sigh"

"Yumi?"

"Yes Auntie?" Like she didn't know what she was going to say.

The woman next to the young girl driving the truck smiled. She knew her niece well enough to realize what was going on. "Looking for what's going to happen at school tomorrow? Gonna make any friends, any one stick out to you?"

The girl turned away, using her hair to cover her face as she turned and placed her hand on her cheek and elbow on the window. "Trying not to. Man, you not being able to drive me tomorrow are going to raise some eyebrows when I get there on my motorcycle." She then looked down on the cat in her lap 'you know what I mean don't you Sora' and scratched behind her ears rising a purr out of her.

The woman's eyes brighten at the thought. "Hey, be thankful your license transferred along with your passport. You know you really should retake it so nothing goes wrong. Your school really was nice enough to let you park it there, seeing that not many if any, drive to school. YOU should be thankful."

The 17 year old raised her eyebrow and glanced at the bike in the back of the truck. "You know I'm thankful, it's the one thing that I can really bring with me here and how else will I get to school, but I can already see their faces when I get there." she closed her eyes "I can see the jealousy, anger, surprise, curiosity, written all over their faces."

"You're just a little insecure, I don't see why though, you're pretty and the classes will be easy for you because of your unfair advantage. I don't see why you're getting upset about it now; it hasn't even happened yet Yumi."

She glared at her new guardian, creating a crease in-between her eyebrows. "I didn't ask for this, and I've moved more than my fair share and I can GUARENTEE that those are the faces I'm going to see tomorrow. By the way, you were the one asking me what I was seeing."

"SIGH OK I thought I was the adult here, no respect or authority for me in this relationship I see." she smiled as she glanced out of the corner of her eye. "You know, I am impressed with how well your language skills are, I would think that coming from America would have dulled your memory or at least caused you to have some sort of accent."

Yumi glanced at her aunt and smirked at the inside joke 'yeah right forget Japanese psst' and rolled her eyes looking back out to the window. To be honest, her aunt understood of her "power" or "ability". She knew full well that she couldn't forget Japanese let alone any other language she knows. It's hard to ignore all the visions and voices in her head and its annoying not even knowing what their saying so she picked up a few things. Yes, ever since she was little she has been able to see ghosts or spirits but that's not what sets her apart, no she has always had the power to see the future of many people and places. It led up to a very awkward childhood, asking questions about things she shouldn't know and answering questions before their spoken but her parents, grandparents and her aunt always understood. She looked back at her Aunt and smiled gratefully. Yes, she was there for her when her parents died like her grandparents were and she was there for her now, taking her in when her grandparents left the world peacefully. She was a constant in her life, whenever she did something odd around her parents or grandparents they looked to her. She understood and helped Yumi threw the darkest parts of her life, she was the fun Aunt that was there but knew when to back off and let her be when she needed to be herself. Yumi was thankful and lucky indeed to have someone like her even though she had the worst luck.

"OK girl no need to burn a hole in my head, seriously act your age" then she added with a giggle "it's sad you're middle aged already at 17"

Yumi smiled "Yeah well someone has to act like the adult while YOU act 17"

"Meow" They both laughed at the cat's need to be included

'Yes' Yumi thought as she turned back to her window having a premonition wash over her 'things are going to pretty interesting here at Karakura, I can feel it'

(BLEACH/bleach/BLEACH/bleach/BLEACH)

The young woman ran through the garbage filled alleyways looking back only to see a man dressed in black chasing her. Screaming, she fell twisting her ankle and the man grabbed her smiling "Where are you goin' hmm? I like it when they scream." terror filled her face even more than before, her head whipping around hoping to find someone, anyone. Building the air up in her lungs she screamed with all of her might. "PLEASE HELP MEEEE! AAAHHHH! SOMEBODY! ANYBODY PLEASE!"...

"Ugh!" Yumi jolted up with her sheet wrapped around her legs. "Great way to start the day..." she looked over at the clock and realized she had another hour before she absolutely had to get up. She was about to get up when she looked at her legs and saw she would trip. Sighing as she realized she was covered in sweat and unconscious tears, she slowly peeled the sheets off her legs and concluded she needed a shower. She wiped her tears off and gathered her things.

She needed the hot water; she needed to scrape her skin off, needed to get rid of the invisible disgusting feeling off of her. "Damn it" she gave up on scraping her skin and tilted her head back. 'I've been here for less than a day and this place is already suffocating me. Something about this location...everything seems to be surrounding me yet... it's clearer here...It's affecting my power somehow.'

Yumi droned through ate and fed her pet cat "so Sora, let's see" she petted the silky black fur and looked into her yellowy hazel eyes, "When do you think I should leave hm? Should I get there early and deal with the stares this morning or should I get there late and put off the stares until the end of the day"

"Purr"

"Yeah I know. Suck it up and just do it. You give the best advice." and laughed not before she stuck her tongue out at the feline.

She glanced at the uniform, an idea blooming. "Well I suppose that if they're going to stare I should give them something to stare at."

"Good morning Orihime" said the Quincy as he pushed his spectacles higher up on the bridge of his nose.

"OH! Good morning Uryu! Hey have you heard? Some one said something about a transfer student from America!"

"Oh is that why everyone is all huddled to together and looking excited?" he said as he motioned over to where Keigo Asano was jumping up and down announcing his hopes to Chad and Ichigo about the said transfer student.

"Come on Mr. Asano, you only have a chance that the transfer student will be a girl and then you might get lucky only because she dosen't know how silly you are." said the student walking up joining the group known as Mizuiro Kojima

'ouch. that one must have hurt' and along with Uryu's thoughts came a hurt expresion followed by an exasterbated Asano crying, saying how hurt he was that his friends would think that.

Tatsuki sighed "Come on Orihime, I feel sorry for the poor transfer student whom ever it may be because all these idiots care too much and they cant possibly live up to the expectations of everyone here."

Just as she said that they all heard the engine of a motorcycle come within earshot. Everyone turned to see the student park and turn the machine off. What they saw was beyond their expectations. The new student was indeed a girl but one with a motorcycle. Of course she wore the standard girl uniform but she would stick out in the crowd. Instead of the regular grey socks and loafer like shoes every other girl had on, Uryu saw as she got off the bike that she wore striped blue socks a little past her knees and black boots that laced up to her calves. Everyone watched as she shrugged off her leather jacket to reveal the standard uniform but even then Uryu realized, her choker and fingerless dark purple gloves made her stick out just as much as her slightly curly hair did when she revealed it as she took off the helmet. Anyone looking could tell she was new here because no one could have missed seeing her.

Uryu's eyes focused on the girl as she walked by people who were obviously staring. 'she seemes confident, normal people would shy away from the strength of stares pointed at her.' He noticed that she didn't ask for directions but just headed off to the main office like it was completely normal and as if she knew where it was already.

"Ok" said Tatsuki "maybe she will live up to these weirdos crazy expectations."

Orihime just nodded "Hey maybe she'll be put in our class Tatsuki?"

"Yeah, maybe, lets go to class before were late kay Orihime?"

"Oh! Right! See you later Uryu!" said the smiling orange haired girl as she was pulled to class by her strong friend.

Uryu glanced back towards the center of all the excitement and tried to sense her spiritual pressure if she had any. To his surprise he felt none. "What the...?" Absolutely nothing. When she turned the corner she could have been invisible to him. 'Even the weakest human has the smallest spiritual pressure because they are alive.' For him to not be able to pick up on her energy either said she was incredibly weak or incredibly strong to easily hide her spiritual pressure from him.

Uryu walked over to the group of guys and interrupted whomever was talking (most likely Asano) and asked "Ichigo, do you notice anything odd about that girl?"

Everyone stopped talking and looked at Uryu.

"Oh hey there Uryu. Well the new girl? No I didn't notice anything other than the obvious." said the spiky carrot top student.

"Are you blind Uryu? She's NEW no need to be mean!"

"I don't think that's what he meant." replayed the giant standing behind him.

"Ok then Chad. What did Ishida mean Hm?"

Chad stayed silent as he thought which was too long for Asano.

"Well then, lets all go to class and see if were lucky and see her there."

Mizuiro rolled his eyes and followed. All that was left were the three friends with thoughtful looks on their faces.

"What did you mean Uryu?"

"I don't know, I mean I can't sense her spiritual pressure at all. Not even a little bit."

"Really? I was never really any good at that thing Uryu. But now that you mention it..."

Chad added "I can't sense her either... but like Ichigo I am not as good at sensing things like you are Uryu."

"So what though" said Ichigo as he rubbed the back of his neck "it's not like she has more spiritual energy than we do so then why does it matter hm?"

"Ichigo" Uryu sighed as he shook his head "you really are clueless you know that" before he could say anything Uryu continued "She might be stronger than she looks seeing that she can hide her energy so that we cant sense her at all. She could be dangerous, idiot."

Before Ichigo could open his mouth, Chad interrupted "we should get to class?"

With a frown Ichigo glared at Uryu and headed off to class, with the others following.

'Something tells me she's not a weak person' Uryu thought as he remembered how confident she walked under every ones stares. 'No, something tells me she's stronger than she looks.'

A/N Looks like she got Uryu's attention as well as the whole schools. *giggle* Eek! I am so excited! *Jumps up and down* I hope you like her. I wanted to think someone up for Uryu and you know she has to be as awesome as he is, am I right!

Yeah I dont like UryuxOrihime. SHE BELONGS WITH ICHIGO NO MATTER HOW DUMB HE IS! Plus I wanted to give them a new adventure and this plot would NOT go away.

I know that this chapter was REALLY long but I had to introduce you to Yumi. She is 'my' character and I can't just throw her in without giving you a taste of the girls' 'essence' or who she is. I mean ill reveal more about her later but I just wanted to give you an introduction and I didn't want it to be a weak watered down version that wouldn't give my character any justice. So please read the next chapter!

R&R if you can. I will take some criticism. I would just be happy that anyone read it at all. *whisper (though, reviews would make me estatic) whisper*
