A True Love Battle
Chapter 1
A teenage girl with long orange hair and gray eyes was happily skipping out of her apartment in Karakura town. It was a sunny summer day today. That was good news for her; no school. Now this girl was basically a blonde even though her hair was orange. A big red bird flew over her head and landed nearby.
"Good morning Orihime." A voice said.
"Huh? I didn't know birds could talk. Hi Mr. Bird!" The girl named Orihime waved at it. The bird cocked its head and flew off.
"Orihime, what are you doing?" A boy with black hair and glasses was walking over. He looked about the same age as Orihime.
"Oh, good morning to you too Uryu. I thought you were a bird." Orihime giggled.
"Thanks, I think…" Uryu was unsure if that was a compliment or not.
"What are you doing here?" Orihime asked.
"I was just in the neighborhood and thought I'd stop by." He replied. "I, uh, made you this." Uryu blushed slightly as he pulled out a beautiful summer dress. It was a light blue color with white trimming and it came down to Orihime's knees.
"Wow Uryu! I love it! Thank you so much!" Orihime hugged the dress.
"But why did you make me a dress?" Orihime questioned.
"I had some left over fabric and thought maybe you could use something for summer." Uryu pushed his glasses up his nose. Uryu was very good at sewing. He didn't mind that it was a girly thing to do.
"Why don't you come inside? I just made a new kind of lemonade you can try!" Orihime grabbed Uryu's arm and pulled him inside before he could say anything.
"I'll be right back. You can go ahead and sit down in the living room" Orihime headed to her room. She hung up her new dress and then went into the kitchen. When she entered the living room Orihime found Uryu sitting on the couch. He was examining her living room. It was small, seeing as she lived in an apartment, but it had a friendly look.
"Here you go Uryu." Orihime said, handing him a glass of what Orihime called lemonade. It was a pale purple color and smelled like fish.
"Uh, what's in it?" Uryu asked, sniffing the liquid. Orihime thought for a minute.
"Freshly squeezed lemons, black liquorice, scrambled eggs, sugar free chocolate syrup, and a strawberry pop tart. Oh, and I added some paper towels for fiber." Uryu wanted to burn this 'lemonade' as soon as possible but with Orihime staring at him it there wasn't much choice. Cautiously he raised the glass to his lips and took the smallest sip possible. And he nearly choked.
"T-That's great Orihime." Uryu lied, his eyes watering.
"I'm glad you like it!" Orihime clapped her hands. He hated lying to her, but the truth would kill her. Orihime always liked eating odd things and was easily upset.
"I made a lot so you can have an entire pitcher!" Orihime ran to the kitchen and came back with a 3-gallon pitcher of the 'lemonade'.
"That's very thoughtful of you Orihime but I couldn't take that much. You won't have any left at this rate." Uryu said, choosing his words carefully.
"It's o.k. I can just make some more." Orihime smiled and laughed. Orihime was always smiling. Uryu hated to see her cry. Her smile was on his list of favorite things.
"Hey, what's that?" Uryu asked, pointing at a large black hole that seemed to have magically appeared on the floor.
"I don't remember a hole being there." Orihime scratched her head.
"I guess the floor must have broken." Uryu stood up and walked over. Peering into the hole he said,
"I don't know. I can't see the floor below us…" Orihime walked over. But she was clumsy and slipped on a rug. She tumbled into Uryu and they fell into the hole. They fell into darkness, with nothing but the sound of rushing wind and their own petrified screams to guide them.
They must have been unconscious because when Orihime woke up it was late evening. Uryu was nowhere to be seen. With the approaching darkness Orihime couldn't tell where she was but it seemed familiar. Orihime stood up and started walking with no destination in mind.
"Hey, don't I know you?" A voice said. Orihime felt dizzy. She didn't know who was talking to her but before she could find out she collapsed. When she awoke Orihime saw that she was lying on a couch. It was still dark out. She looked around and saw Rock Lee half asleep in a chair nearby.
"Lee?" Orihime asked as she tried to sit up. Lee jerked awake.
"Oh, your awake. That's good. Would you like some ramen?" Lee went into the kitchen and came back with a tray. It had some warm tea and ramen on it.
"Go ahead and eat. It's Orihime, right?" Orihime nodded and started eating. When she was done she explained everything to Lee.
"And that's when you found me. I hope Uryu's alright." Orihime looked at Lee with sad eyes.
"I am sure that Uryu will be fine. I will look for him first thing tomorrow morning!" Lee said enthusiastically.
"Thank you." Orihime smiled.
"Now get some rest. I assure you, you are safe." Lee stood up.
"My bedroom is across the hall. If you need anything then please let me know."
"I will. Goodnight." Orihime lay back down on the couch and moved to a comfortable sleeping position. Her face was red. "The way he looked at me…He was really worried about me…" Orihime thought as she fell asleep.
Earlier that evening…
THUD.
"What happened?" Uryu was lying on the ground, his broken glasses smashed underneath him.
"I can't see a thing. Where am I? And where is Orihime?" Uryu thought. He looked around but Orihime was nowhere to be seen. There was another big problem; his sight reached to about 3 feet in front of him, and it was getting dark. Uryu picked up the shattered remains of his glasses and brushed himself off. With his arms stretched out in front of him Uryu started walked forward. But he ran into a tree.
"Am I in a forest or something?" He grumbled, rubbing his head. Uryu stood still. He was sure he just heard a twig break. If a bear or something were coming he wouldn't see it.
"Who's there? Show yourself!" Uryu commanded, trying to sound brave.
"Uryu, is that you?" A girl was approaching.
"Why are you here? Where is Ichigo and the others?" Uryu could tell that this girl was worried. So he must know her. He squinted. The girl's arm was reaching forward.
"Come on, I'll take you home and we'll figure things out." Uryu gasped when he saw who it was.
"Sakura!?" Uryu was stunned. There in front of him was none other then Sakura Haruno. Sakura grabbed his arm and led them to Konoha's village gates.
"I was on my way back from a mission when I saw something fall from the sky. I thought I'd check it out." Sakura explained. They made their way back to Sakura's apartment. Uryu had only been here once. It was a nice apartment, with nice furniture. Everything was nice and clean.
"You can sleep in my mom's room. She's on a mission right now." Sakura showed Uryu where he was sleeping, where the bathroom was, and so on. Sakura found some duck tape and they fixed Uryu's glasses.
"See you in the morning Uryu." Sakura said as she went into her bedroom. Uryu went into Sakura's mom's room. He wasn't comfortable in a woman's bed but he lay down and fell into an uneasy sleep.
A/N: O.k. what do you think? I just got his idea yesterday, so I'm full of inspiration again I wonder how long it'll stay this time? Well, keep on reading.
