Ichigo sighed as he packed his clothes; finally, going off to college. Leaving his small clinic for a small dorm room at Karakura College . He looked around to see that all his belongings had been taken out of his room and that all the sheets on his bed had been taken off. The only thing that was partially full was his closet. And even that was slowly emptying out. Yes, he was going to miss all of his friends-the ones that weren't going with him-and his family. The only family member he wouldn't miss was Rukia-his adopted step-sister. She, too, would be accompanying him and some of his friends to college. But, for some reason, his feelings were off today. He was sad, of course, but also….he felt….odd. As if, something bad was going to happen today. He shrugged it off and looked at the clock. 3:48 p.m. He needed to finish packing quickly if he was going to meet Grimmjow and the gang at four.

"Hey, Ichi. Are you ready?" Rukia asked as she poked her head through the doorway.

"Yeah, almost. You done?"

"Of course. Your dad's waiting for you downstairs. He has his camera ready and he's crying his eyes out."

"Oh god." Ichigo rolled his eyes as he zipped his suitcase shut and yanked it off the bed.

He trudged downstairs with Rukia behind him. Yuzu was at the bottom of the steps, her eyes filled with tears and a plate of cookies in her hands.

"What's up with the cookies?" Ichigo asked.

"I'll make you all the cookies in the world if you stay." Yuzu sobbed.

Rukia smiled. "I'm sorry, Yuzu. But we have to go. We can't stay here forever."

Ichigo leaned down and patted his sister's head. "I promise, Yuzu, were gonna be fine."

"Can you at least eat one of my cookies?" Yuzu asked as she held out her plate.

"Of course." Ichigo smiled as he took one.

"ICHIGO!" Cried Isshin as he tackled his son to the floor. "You let your guard down! That shouldn't be happening when you're in college! You don't know when any other woman might tackle you away from Orihime!"

Ichigo rolled his eyes. "I'm not leaving Orihime. We've been together for a long time. And I'm not gonna ditch her for some chick I just met at college. And will you get off of me!"

Isshin smirked as he got off of his son and stood up straight. "All I have to ask of you, is to…….NOT GET ORIHIME PREGNANTE! YOU HEAR!? I DON'T WANNA HAVE A SON WHO'S A FATHER AT THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN!"

Ichigo kicked his dad square in the face. "I'm not even gonna be thinking about that you pervert! God, get your head out of the gutter!"

"Speaking of gutter, Grimmjow's on the phone." Karin said as she walked into the room with a phone.

"What does he want?" Ichigo asked as he grabbed the phone.

"Were the fuck are you, man! Were' leaving now! And if you don't hurry up, we're leaving your ass behind." Grimmjow shouted.

"Calm your ass down. We're going now. Bye." Ichigo said as he hung up and tossed the phone back to Karin. She smiled and quickly gave her brother and step-sister a hug.

"Be safe." She said.

"We will." Rukia promised.

"About fuckin' time!" Grimmjow shouted. "We were thinkin' about leavin' your ass."

"Calm down. At least we got here." Rukia said as she threw her luggage in the back of the truck.

"Yeah, late." Hiyori growled as she slammed the trunk shut.

"Stop bitchin' and get in the car already! It's an hour drive for Christ sake!" Shinji shouted from the driver's seat.

"Hey! Who the hell said you can drive my car!?" Grimmjow asked as he opened the car door.

"They never change, do they?" Orihime asked next to Ichigo.

"Apparently, not." Ichigo sighed.

"Alright, guys! I'm back!" Said a small voice. The group looked to see a young girl with long pink hair and green eyes. She wore a jean skirt with a blue checkered shirt under a black vest. This was Grimmjow's girlfriend. The one he would dump and get back together with every month, Kathrynne (Kiwi) Johnson, who came from American apparently. She carried a six pack of Monsters and Red Bulls and five bags of Doritos and Sun Chips.

"Hey, Kiwi! I didn't know you were coming!" Orihime said excitedly.

"Yeah, no one knew I was coming. Apparently, Grimmjow, here, didn't mention it to anyone." Kiwi said as she opened the car door.

"Come on! Get your asses in the car already!" Renji shouted from the sun roof.

"Hey! Sit the fuck down! This ain't no goddamn limo!" Grimmjow shouted.

"Ugh, you sound like a hillbilly." Kiwi rolled her eyes as she put on more lipstick.

"Ugh, you look like a slut with all that makeup on." Grimmjow growled.

"Ladies, let's not start the cat fighting now. We haven't even started the car." Shinji commented.

"Man, fuck you!" Grimmjow shouted.

"Will you stop your cursing fest and just start the goddamn car already! We can't be in this fuckin' gas station all day!" Hiyori snapped.

"Calm your nipples!" Renji shouted.

Hiyori took off one of her sandals and threw it back at him. He ducked; quickly evading it. Ichigo and Orihime sat in the second row with Hiyori. While Shinji, Rukia, and Renji sat in the third row. Kiwi was in the passenger seat with Grimmjow driving.

"Wait? Isn't Ulquiorra coming?" Ichigo asked.

"Nahh, Emobitch is ditching'. He's too depressed." Grimmjow said as he started the car.

"Wow, he's talking that break up with Tatsuki really bad, isn't he?" Orihime said.

Grimmjow shrugged, "Eh, what are you gonna do?"

"How about you fuckin' drive already?" Hiyori snapped.

"Someone forgot her tampons this morning." Renji commented.

Hiyori growled as she chucked her other sandal back. And missed once more.

As Grimmjow pulled out of the gas station, another car suddenly came rushing by, causing Grimmjow to break hard. Orihime, who didn't have a seat belt on since there wasn't on in the middle, jolted forward, but was pulled back by Ichigo. Grimmjow growled as he gripped the steering wheel.

"Calm down, baby. It was just a dumbass." Kiwi said, she turned around to her friends in the back seat. "You guys okay back there?"

"Yeah." Orihime nodded.

"Dammit, Grimmjow. I told you to out a seatbelt in the middle-like- a hundred times already!" Kiwi shouted.

"Quit yer bitchin'. This is my car. And I do what I want with it. If I don't wanna add another seatbelt I won't." Grimmjow claimed.

"Yeah, Kiwi. A man's car is like his sanction. You don't fuck with that." Shinji agreed from the back.

"Thank you!" Grimmjow said.

"Oh, just shut up and drive already!" Kiwi growled as she crossed her arms.

The whole time, everyone was talking about their new-soon to be-lives in college. Ichigo was talking about how he was going to work in the medical field to work for his dad once Isshin retired. Orihime was talking about how she wants to spend most of her time in home economics class to become a chef, which caused everyone in the car's stomach to churn. Rukia was saying how she wants to go into the medical field as well, since her former older brother was a doctor. Shinji was saying how he wanted to play music for everyone; Smooth Jazz to be precise. Renji claimed he wanted to play soccer. Grimmjow said he wanted to bang on some hot chicks (which Kiwi wasn't too happy about) and then he said he wanted to play football. Kiwi stated that she was going into the designing business. While Hiyori said she was going to study more on biology like her fiancé, Kisuke.

"Speaking of which, where is he?" Ichigo asked.

"He's already at the college. He said he'd meet us there." Hiyori claimed.

As Grimmjow got onto the highway, a sick feeling entered Ichigo's body once again. A sudden breeze out of nowhere caused him to shudder. Ichigo bit his lip. Something didn't feel right. As other cars passed them, Ichigo scooted closer and closer toward Orihime.

"Ow, Ichi. Can you move over please? You're squishing me." Orihime said as she placed her hands on his chest.

Ichigo snapped out of his phase and looked down at her. "What? Oh, sorry." Ichigo said as he scooted away.

"Are you okay? You look….pale." Orihime asked as she placed her delicate hand on his forehead.

"Yeah, man. What's up?" Renji asked as he leaned forward.

Ichigo sighed. "I don't know. I just don't feel right is all."

"Someone's nervous." Grimmjow snickered. "And I thought you were the calm one."

"I'm not nervous. I'm…..just not feeling well."

Orihime gave him a worried look. Seeing this, Ichigo smiled, leaned down, and kissed her forehead. "I'll be alright."

She smiled at his reassurance and rested her head on his chest.

"Isn't that cute, Grimmy? Why can't we be like that?" Kiwi asked.

Grimmjow rolled his eyes. "Ugh."

"Don't 'ugh' me!" Kiwi snapped.

Three miles in front of them, were a group of teenage boys who held illegal fireworks in their hands. They sat in a aqua green mini van that was speeding rapidly down the street. They were getting ready to open the sunroof with a roar of laughter then, pulled out their liters; ready to blast them off onto the highway. The driver turned around.

"G-guys, I-I don't think we should be doing this." Said the young boy.

"Shut the fuck up, Hanataro." Shouted one of the kids who were standing out of the sun roof. He held the rocket below of the sunroof, where the sun's ultraviolet rays were beaming down through the sun roof's glass; causing a small light to show.

"But, we could get in a lot of trouble." Hanatro cried as he tried to reason with his friends.

"No we're not! Stop being a bitch and drive, Dammit!" Shouted the kid. Suddenly, the small light had turned into a large flame and quickly shot up to the core.

"Oh shit! Jinta! Put it out!" Shouted the other kid

Jinta quickly went to grab the bottle of water, but it was too late, the rocket shot off and broke through the back window of the van. The residue of the flames caused sparks to fall into the box full of more rockets that were in the back. The sparks quickly ignited and blasted off in all directions. Hanataro quickly turned the wheel and the car spun out of control until it finally crashed into the median. Hanataro's head slammed into the windshield, killing him instantly. The other two kids lay unconscious on the floor with their faces burned heavily.

Behind them, The group of College teens were still hearing Kiwi rant on about Grimmjow's personality.

"Do you even love me?" She asked. "Because it's as if you don't!"

"Oh my-! Just shut the fuck up! Stop fuckin' bitchin' about everything! And maybe I don't love you! Who the fuck cares!?"

"I do!" Kiwi screamed.

"Well, I don't! And I know half the people in the car don't!"

"Hey, don't bring us into your drama." Shinji protested.

"Seriously, we don't wanna here your crap." Hiyori agreed.

"I wasn't going to bring you guys into the drama! I just….I just wanna get out of the car!" Kiwi shouted.

"What!? Are you that retarded!? We're in the middle of a highway! How the hell are you gonna walk to college when it's, like, fifty miles away!?" Hiyori shouted.

"Well, if Grimmjow won't be sensitive to my feelings then I don't give a fuck!" Kiwi cried.

Up ahead, Ichigo could see small sparks of colorful flying shapes in the air. He squinted his eyes for a better look but saw the same thing. Leaning to the side, he lowered the window and slowly stuck a bit of his head out of the window. As the car got closer, Ichigo could finally see that the flying sparks were fireworks. His eyes widened as they began to fly closer.

"Hey! Get yer head inside! You ain't no fuckin dog, Ichi!" Grimmjow shouted as he turned his head back.

"GRIMMJOW! LOOK OUT!" Kiwi shouted as his head snapped forward. Nine maybe ten rockets of fireworks came flying toward them.

"Shit!" Grimmjow shouted as he tried to evade the rockets that fell and crashed onto the streets. He managed to evade the first two but the third one smashed right through the windshield and exploded in Kiwi's face. The blow caused her to inhale the debris and she suffocated. Not to mention, the burn was so deep that it caused her skin to burn up.

"KIWI!" Grimmjow shouted as he looked at the dead body of his girlfriend. His face burned from the residue of the sparks. He was in so much shock over his dead girlfriend that the didn't notice the other firework slamming on the left side of the car. Were Shinji and Hiyori. The intensity of the flames and Hiyori's head repeatedly slamming into the window, caused the glass to shatter and pierce her skull.

"FUCK!" Grimmjow shouted as he tried to gain control of the car. The fifth firework exploded behind the car, the flames burned off the trunk and caused their belongings to fall out. Rukia looked behind to see that other cars were crashing into each other to try and avoid hitting the luggage. Or the fireworks. Shinji quickly tried to put on his seat belt as the car kept spinning out of control. Renji's seat belt popped off and pounded in Shinji's face. The impact broke every bone in his face, killing him as well. Renji screamed as he was now seatbelt less and in danger of being killed like Shinji. Rukia gasped as the third row she was sitting in began to move backwards with a jolt. Rukia quickly tried to unbuckle her seat belt and grab onto the head rest in front of her as the seat gave another jolt backwards. Renji who also felt this, tried to grab Orihime's shoulders. Once he did, the third row completely pulled back and started to fall out of the car. Renji pulled on hand away from Orihime and held his hand out to grab Rukia's hand. She screamed as she held her hand out for dear life. Suddenly, the seat belt that was filled with Shinji's blood was tangled with Renji's leg as the seat flew back. Suddenly, the seat completely flew out of the car. Renji was yanked back and his face slammed against the pavement. Killing him first. Then Rukia's head crashed against the pavement, caving her skull in.

"RUKIA! RENJI!" Ichigo screamed as he turned around completely in his seat. Grimmjow was still trying to gain control of the car, when he finally did, the car crashed into the car in front of them. Grimmjow slammed his head against the steering wheel. A second later the air back popped open, causing his head to snap back and break his neck. Orihime flew forward and slammed her face on the radio, killing her. Ichigo screamed his lungs out for his now dead girlfriend. Ichigo stopped as he heard a small whizzing sound. He looked up to see the last firework zooming downward toward him.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" He screamed as the rocket……

Ichigo snapped his eyes open and quickly looked around the car.

Do you even love me?" She asked. "Because it's as if you don't!"

"Oh my-! Just shut the fuck up! Stop fuckin' bitchin' about everything! And maybe I don't love you! Who the fuck cares!?"

"I do!" Kiwi screamed.

"Well-."

"I don't and I know half the people in the car don't." Ichigo interrupted Grimmjow.

Grimmjow looked back at him. "Yeah, I was gonna say that."

Orihime looked up at him as well, "Ichigo?"

Ichigo quickly lowered the window and stuck half his body out of the window.

"What the hell are you doin, Ichi!? Get yer ass in the car!" Grimmjow ordered.

Ichigo could see from a distance, small sparks flying. His eyes widened as he pulled himself in and screamed, "STOP THE CAR!"

"What!? In the middle of the Highway?" Rukia asked.

"I ain't stopping this goddamned car!" Grimmjow shouted.

"STOP THE FUCKIN' CAR, GRIMMJOW!" Ichigo screamed.

Grimmjow, who became worried at Ichigo's sudden outburst pulled over to the side of the road. Ichigo got out and ran his hands through his hair as he approached the woods. Kiwi only opened the door but didn't bother to unbuckle her seatbelt. Everyone else got out and followed Ichigo.

"What the fuck's yer problem, Berry!?" Grimmjow asked.

"The fireworks! They're gonna hit us! The fireworks are gonna hit us and we're all gonna die! I saw it! I saw all of it!" Ichigo cried.

"Ichigo, calm down! It was all just a bad dream!" Orihime said.

"And what fireworks are you talking about?" Shinji asked.

"Those!" Ichigo cried as he pointed up. Just as he said so, fireworks flew in every direction, one of them crashing and exploding on Grimmjow's car. Killing Kiwi along with it. He could hear her scream as she was being burned alive by the flames.

"KIWI!" Grimmjow shouted as he started to run toward her.

"GRIMMJOW, NO!" Ichigo shouted as him and Renji tackled Grimmjow to the ground.

"LET GO OF ME! KIWI'S DYING! SHE'S DYING!" Grimmjow screamed.

"We're not letting you go!" Ichigo cried.

Suddenly, the car exploded and landed on the highway as other cars either ran into it and exploded or stopped and barely evaded the flames.

"KIWI!" Grimmjow shouted.

"ICHIGO! LOOK OUT!" Orihime cried.

Ichigo, Renji, and Grimmjow looked up to see the fireworks getting ready to crash down on them. The three of them quickly got up and ran for their lives as the fireworks crashed and exploded. Everyone quickly ran behind the trees until the ambulance sirens were heard.
