She had woken up with no memories of who she was or where she was but she supposed that was ok. Not many people here did. She thought back to when she had first woken up.
A boy, no older than five, had been in the room with her and had started to yell when her eyes opened. "Nee-chan! The girl woke up!"
He was short with red hair and green eyes. His face was cherubic and his eyes were wide. He wore a ratty green kimono with tears at the sleeve that made him look like he had been playing somewhere particularly dirty and played rough. His hands had shot up into the air as he ran to the door to find his sister. All in all she had to say he was adorable.
Two girls, whom Kagome predicted to be around the age of sixteen and eleven, rushed into the room with surprised looks on their faces. The older girl had flowing light brown hair that was drawn back into a high ponytail. She wore a faded short red kimono to give her walking space that was tied with a dark blue obi. Around her feet were convenient sandals that allowed easy movement. The younger girl had a dirty blond mane. She wore a necklace with a stone engraved with writing on the center and similar clothes to the older girl.
"Oh! Hello!" The older girl spoke up. "My name is Chiyo and this," She gestured to the girl standing next to her "is Ayame." Ayame gave a quiet hello in greeting. "And last but not least, the boy with the big mouth is Kei. "
Kei crossed his arms and scowled at her. "I do not!"
Chiyo flicked his forehead with a large smile on her face but didn't give a verbal reply. She turned back to the girl lying on the futon and glanced at her arm briefly. "Do you know who you are?"
The girl who had been lying on the futon rubbed her eyes and sat up. "Um…" She tried to recall her name but could only come up with a blank. "No… Who am I? And who are you?"
"You're lucky." Chiyo stated. "Not many of us get to know our original names. You have a bracelet on you with the name 'Kagome' engraved in it. I can only assume that is what your name is."
"I suppose… I can't remember! It sounds right, though."
"Anyways, you are in Soul Society…"
After explaining that Kagome was now dead and most people lost their memories because it was often easier to forget their past lives Chiyo started to go off about "The Academy." Mamoru, Chiyo's boyfriend, was a being with high spiritual power or reitsu. And so they thought he should go to the Academy to train those powers. She also said that being a Shinigami paid well, and so they could afford more necessities and some luxuries for all of them.
Chiyo said she had wanted to go with him but it turns out she didn't have enough reitsu to qualify. And besides, she had to stay to look after Ayame and Kei.
Kagome got along well with everyone but she took a special liking to Kei. He was energetic and loved to play pranks but that made him all the more loveable. He often played with Kagome and liked to drag her places.
"Kagome! Come here! Look what I found!" Kagome had been talking to Ayame when Kei had run into the house to drag Kagome somewhere else.
Amused, Kagome followed along. The sun was high in the air and she didn't mind walking far distances. What she didn't really expect was for them to be led to the large wall. It went on and on and encompassed the city entirely. It ruined many sunsets and sunrises for her.
"This doesn't look like something we should be doing." Kagome joked when she saw the hole at the bottom of the wall, covered by some shrubbery.
"It's not!" Kei exclaimed happily but went ahead and burrowed to the other side of the wall.
A bit stumped about what to do Kagome fought an internal battle. Kei was young so his behavior would be excused but there was no excuse for someone of her age to be breaking some unwritten rules. When she heard Kei whisper that he would go on without her anyways she made the decision to follow him. To keep him out of trouble, Kagome told herself.
Getting down on her knees and crawling through the hole, Kagome saw Kei's smirk and instantly scowled. She was stuck. The hole was easy for Kei to go through because of his small body but it was not so easy for Kagome's full grown body.
Growling in annoyance, Kagome tugged her body forward until she popped through the hole.
"Don't. Say. Anything."
All Kei did was smile.
Kagome gaped at the sight she saw. Instead of rows and rows of buildings she saw endless forests.
"This is amazing!" She squealed.
"And it's not even the best part." Kei smiled, grabbing her hands and running into the forests.
They passed many sights that made Kagome hold the surprised but pleased look on her face. Inside Soul Society it was dull and boring. There was so much grey that it almost made her sick. The orange wall linings cheered her up a bit but she could only take so much blandness. In Soul Society there were only souls with the occasional animal or pet.
The forests were bursting with life.
She was slightly dazed in wonder as they came to a stop in front of a large lake with a river flowing through it.
Splash!
Squealing in surprised Kagome saw Kei had run over to the lake and splashed Kagome with a handful of water. He was full out laughing at the sight of her drenched he didn't have time to respond to Kagome's attack. She dove into the water and came out behind him. The water fight had begun.
A/N: Aw shucks. Kei is such a cutie.
Yerrrp. So I started this on whim and frankly, I have no clue where this is going. I don't know who Kagome should be paired with so suggestions are welcome! I'm thinking of pairing her with a captain but I'm not sure yet. Any suggestion (including Espada or ex-Shinigami) is welcome but please keep it non-yuri. I will definitely not pair Kagome up with the following people: Ichigo, Chad, Ishida or any Vizard. It would be too hard to pair her up with them.
Leave your suggestions in a review or PM!
