Chapter 1
Memory and Honesty
"Rue" a voice called out "Rue, wake up"
Said girl was currently sleeping on top of a tree in what appeared to be a very uncomfortable position.
"Rue-chan" the voice persisted
Rukia kept her eyes closed, trying to shut the voice and the rest of the world out.
"Ruueee" the voice sung
It was very calming, like the sea, Rukia mused. She wanted to here it again…..
"Rue!"
I know this voice………
"Baka.." the voice said softly "you'll miss the sunset"
Rukia slowly fluttered her eyes open
The person who had called had her faced turned away, her long brown hair was blowing in all directions. Her face was stuck out, in offering to the wind that was gently kissing her striking features.
Rukia made a very unattractive groan.
"So now you awake? You always find the weirdest places to sleep" The girl said while turning to face her. Like she's one to talk, who brought me up here in the first place? She had a wide smile on her face showing the straight white teeth beneath. The smile faded when the owner realised that Rukia was starring "eh? Do I have something on my teeth? You should tell me you know!"
Rukia immediately blushed "N-no…" it's just your smile…
Rukia blinked when she found herself face to face with her friend; her violet eyes starred right into her friends translucent blue ones. "Moron look at the sunset!" her friend urged
Rukia's violet orbs followed the gaze of her friend and saw the most beautiful sunset; her friend steaded herself standing up on the tallest branch spreading her arms out in a hug position, embracing the setting sun.
"Isn't it beautiful?" the brown- haired girl asked her blue eyes sparkling
"Y-Yer, yer, it is"
The sun set sending pools of light that bleed through the sky. Yellow turned to orange, orange turned to pink and pink turned to blue, while the clouds stayed a constant deep red as they floated; gently blown by the wind.
Rukia wanted to stay like this forever; she moved her gaze towards the ground and thought how the people looked just like ants. Just how far up are we?
"Ne, Rue, Doesn't everything look perfect from far away?"
"Inuzuri? Perfect?" Rukia scoffed with a cynical look on her face
"Up here it doesn't matter!" The brown haired girl said with a pout on her face "Ok, It may seem unbeilveable that Inzuri could be perfect, but look, when were up here we can't see the street fights or how broken the houses really are"
The discussion had somehow turned into something serious and Rukia began to feel uneasy. There was another gush of wind; then humming? Rukia turned to her friend to find her eyes closed singing to sound the wind made as it brushed pass the leaves. It sounded sad but alluring, Rukia watched as her friend closed her eyes in concentration trying to remember the lyrics that were long forgotten. The song was soon interrupted when a masculine voice called out to them;
"Oi! Come down now! I've been looking for you for ages!" The voice was strong and masculine with a hint of concern and worry hidden in it. It had a sense of home about it; much like her other friend's presence gave.
"Yer, Yer." Her friend replied in a bored tone "come on Rue, lets go!" she added, in a completely different tone. She stretched out hand to Rukia. Rukia gladly took it and they began to climb down the tree together .
"Me and Renji caught some fish for dinner" the masculine voice said "WITHOUT your help!"
"Oh really? Cause I seem to recall making the nets for you to catch the fish so THEREFORE I caught the fish by default!"
Rukia liked listening to them fighting….it was normal….
The owner of the masculine voice came in to view. He was very handsome, and looked a lot older than he was. He caught Rukia's gaze "Watch were your going midget!"
"I am not a midget, one day I'll get taller than you!" Rukia replied her tongue poking out in annoyance.
He turned his eyes towards the brown- haired girl "Just don't hurt yourself" he said softly
Rukia let out a small chuckle- he tries to act tough, but he cares about her so much
In an instance both the girls had there feet on the ground and a large growl erupted from their stomachs.
"I agree with Rue! Lets eat" the seemingly unembarrassed brown-haired girl said.
"Well it would have been cooked sooner if you two hadn't taken your time!" A gruff fourth voice had added to the group's conversation. "What the hell were you two doing up there anyway?" His red hair and unusual eyebrows stood out even through the darkness.
"Renji!" Rukia called out with a boyish smile on her face
A small blush crept on his face. It did not go unnoticed by the brown-haired girl, whose eyes switched between the two. She walked up to Renji and wishpered into his ear "Rue's to dense to realise your feelings! They'll never be known unless you voice them" At this Renji turned several shades darker.
"Rue-chan! Lets go back together" She said in a very cheerful voice. Rukia smiled even wider as she ran to her friends. But the gap did not close.
Her facial expression change to that of a worried one; but her friends kept their original smiles.
Her friend called out to her again "Rukia" but it was not her voice that came from her lips, it had lost all warmness and sense of home.
"Rukia" again it was that voice it appeared to come from her friends mouth but it didn't belong to her. Rukia came frantic. Her eyes watering as she ran faster towards her friends. She couldn't reach them, the gap would not close.
The hand was still outstretched and Rukia desperately tried to reach for it, but failed.
"Wait" Rukia cried "Don't leave me!"
"Rukia"
It was that voice again
"Rukia" The voice was followed by a loud 'BANG'
What is that?
Rukia was still running, her feet getting sore. She couldn't see anymore because of the tears.
"Rukia!"
That voice again…who did it belong too?
"Rukia damnit! You're going to be late for school, BAKA!"
Rukia's eyes shot open at the recognition of the voice. She quickly pushed the closet door open and came face to face with Ichigo.
Ichigo had a small pink tinge on his cheeks due to the close proximity of there faces- well Rukia's face and his chest, but you get the idea- to avoid a certain raven-haired midget from noticing he turned his head quickly to the said "Geez, Your not even dressed yet- Midget" he said lifting his hand to the back of his head.
Rukia was aggravated, Ichigo could tell, but no witty remark come from her lips. He hand stayed at the entrance of the closet, supporting her, but it was her eyes Ichigo noted that seemed different. Confused he grabed his bag from his desk, when he turned around to look at her she was still in the same position.
"Rukia?" he asked questionaly
"Go on ahead and I'll meet you there" She snapped finally bringing her head to his level.
Ichigo stood at the door and gave Rukia a quick glance before shutting it behind him. Rukia, in no rush, got out of the closet her mind still absorbed in her dream.
"Baka, I thought you said you'd never leave" Rukia whispered sadly to herself as she rubbed her eye trying to get rid of, what she told herself was, sleep.
Authors Note:
Basically this is about Rukia's past (therefore focusing on Rukia)- I was thinking about how she lived before she met Renji, if it's in the manga I probably wasn't paying enough attention, but I thought it wasn't mentioned, anyway- I've changed a lot of info but it's my story so I can do it! I've added two new characters ; sorry about always referring to them as her or him or brown-haired girl; it's probably annoying…but you'll have to find out later what their names are and what there relationship to Rukia and Renji is!
Also this story centres around these two made up characters cause I think they are cool and they exist to shine more light on Rukia…so it all works out in the end……and hint hint Orihime gets owned by my made up female character -YAY! Cause no offence to Orihime she really needs to suck it up and become a man (not literally but you know what I mean…hopefully.)
Oh and the last line- "Baka, I thought you said you'd never leave"- she is talking about her friend, I know her friend didn't say anything about not leaving her in this memory/dream thing but she does in a later chapter.
Memory/dream- the dream is really a memory converted into a dream, if you don't get it don't worry. Like it starts off as a memory then turns to a dream (a.k.a when Rukia's running and can't reach her unnamed friend) but this is really a metaphor because her friend left- yes I'm confusing!
Rue is Rukia (duh that's obvious!)
Well that's that, sorry for any grammatical errors or spelling mistakes but honestly I don't care!
Wow that was a long authors note almost longer than the story!
Also I might Change the title of the story soon, cause it's so dodgy!
