Disclaimer note: I don't own bleach
But I do own the character Raventail though and I will be editing
each chapter with constructive criticism.
In the last chapter I used a bit of a bleach game called the blades of fate

chapter 1
Karasu was sleeping with a strained look on her face as she dreamed about how she came to live with the kurosaki's
Karasu's dream
I found myself running through the rain looking for a place to hide. As questions ran through her mind "who I am
where am I?" I arrived at the street with a house. After that her knees gave out from under her at she
collapsed onto the rain soaked ground. As raven began to lose coconscious she heard a woman gasp and called
"Isshin there is a girl lying in front of our house" (dream change) the next thing I knew she was
lying in a soft bed. She sat up slowly and looked around. The room was comfortable looking, as she was about to
get out of bed and explore the room, when the door opened and a women with long light brown hair pulled back
into a low pony tail and a smile that was filled with a warmth that soothed my heart and to add to the gentle
atmosphere she was carrying a tray with hot soup and a cup of hot tea, she set the tray of food on the bedside
table and sat on the edge of the bed, and spoke gently "hello don't be nervous what is your name?"
I tried to hide my face as she said my name
"my name is Karasu I don't remember anything about where I came from" I looked down as the lady
introduced herself.
"I am Misaki Kurosaki and the man who brought you in here is my husband Isshin" I looked her "what will happen to me?" she asked nervously but was supprised as Misaki hugged her "we have a surprise for you tomorrow so get some sleep" I nodded and fell asleep.
The surprise came the next morning when she entered the kitchen there were streamers and abanner saying 'welcome to the family Raven B Kurosaki' the man I assumed to be Isshin bounded over and hugged her "welcome Karasu" Isshin yelled with joy and, I look over Isshin's shoulder and saw three kids and they were grinning and I felt happy and grinned as well.
(Dream changed)
The day Mom died was horrible; It was a day after martial arts class, Ichigo and I were walking in the
rain past a river that flowed under a bridge following Mom. As we walked Ichigo and I were talking and chuckling,
when we saw a girl with shoulder length black hair and pail skin standing by the edge of the river. The girl suddenly began to fall forward into the river. "Watch Out!" Ichigo screamed and ran toward the girl. I tried to stop him but slipped, fell and rolled down the hill as Misaki screamed our names, just as I hit the ground, rolled to a stop, I heard no more. Screaming cry's of my elder brother Ichigo, as I stirred and heard the rain falling on the river, feeling it trickling on my face awakened me, I sat up quickly and looked around.
I felt cold ice eat my veins Misaki was laying across both me and Ichigo protecting us from some unknown danger, it looked like mom was asleep except there was blood spreading across the ground, on her back was a big gash that was too deep to heal. "MOMMM!" she heard Ichigo screaming. That was when the dream began to fade while I heard someone called my name. "Karasu…can you hear…me oi Karasu!"
(end of dream)
Karasu woke up with Ichigo and Rukia leaning over her with looks of worry in their faces. Karasu realized that tears were falling from her eyes. She tried to sit up but Ichigo pushed her back down saying something about Raven having a high fever. As Karasu tried to sit up again this time Ichigo's patience waned and he pinned her shoulders down to her mattress." look Karasu you are not well right now"
Karasu struggled against his hold but he didn't let her go and began crying and thrashing.
"Rukia can you help me please!" Ichigo snapped as he struggled to keep Karasu down, Rukia quickly pressed a pressure point on Karasu's neck, as her eyes rolled up in her head Karasu saw another flashback with the white haired boy.
Flashback
a voice called me but I can't see anything but my own hand. The voice called again
"remember who you are" she looked around as a boy appeared, he had shocking white hair that defied gravity, his eyes are a shocking jade green, and as he reached out a hand toward her. "come back"
Flashback (end pov)
As she reached out a hand to take it he suddenly vanished. "THUMP!"Karasu woke up to a inverted world and looked around confused "how did I end up here?" she muttered, then realized that she had falling out of bed. She sat up rubbing the big bruise on her forehead. "Ouch that_" she didn't finish her sentence when she sensed the presence of a hollow. She leapt up and swallowed a soul pill from her soul pill dispenser. She left her body on her bed and leapt her bedroom window landing on the ground before sprinting toward the presence of the hollow.
(Scene change sorry)
Ichigo and Rukia were running toward the hollows presence when many more hollows began appearing out of nowhere and blocked their path. "you will not pass us our leader wants to meet with the girl called Karasu" with that some hollows who appeared to a have the bodies of grizzly bears began shooting at the two teenagers. "Ichigo!" Rukia yelled as she put on a glove while leaping toward him as he turned with his arms outstretched as she pushed his soul out of his body so he was in his shinigami form, "lets do this" with that he and Rukia began to kill every hollow that came at them, but every time they destroyed a hollow, there would be another one to take their place.
"man this is getting Frustrating" ichigo snarled as he continued slicing hollows Rukia was also fighting, 'my kido might not be strong enough but I have to try'. She landed farther away from the group of hollows and yelled to Ichigo "Move!" Ichigo jumped out of the way as Rukia began her incantation: "c
Dominator... Mask of flesh and blood... all living things...fluttering...that which has the name of human. Truth and temperance... slightly imbed your claws in the wall of innocent dreams...Hado#33 sokatsui!!" a burst of blue spiritual energy shot toward the hollows and killed many of the weaker hollows were killed but more continued to pop up as they fought. "I hope Karasu is fairing okay she still has a fever to deal with" Ichigo muttered as he and Rukia launched themselves at the hollows. ……
(((SceneChange)
Karasu was running as fast as she could to the Karuka town park where she sensed the presence of a big hollow and the presence of two other spirits. As she ran into the park looked around, Raven saw that there were swings, slides, monkey bars, a big hollow_ wait a big hollow?.
Karasu repeated the last part and began running toward the hollow who appeared to be chasing two spirits of 10 year old children. Karasu began increasing her speed, as the hollow appeared to be gaining the upper ground until she landed a kick on its face and sent it tumbling backwards. She turned toward the two spirits and spoke quickly. "I am going to send you two to safety" the two children looked scared as she reassured them.
"you will be safe in the soul society a place where souls of the deceased go" she performed the soul burial on both of the spirits. As two hell butterflies fluttered away Karasu turned to face the hollow as it pushed itself to its feet and turned around to face Karasu with a angry roar. " You knocked me down with a single kick to my head" Karasu replied "at least you aren't a thick head like a lot hollows I have to meet" the hollow was fuming as it began to circle Karasu leaning close to look at her face, then suddenly recoiled "that sword, the long hair, those flowers, you are the one called Karasu the soul reaper with no past no memories of who you are"
Karasu froze as she turned to face the hollow
"how do you know about me?" the hollow chuckled "don't tell me you don't know who you are?!" Karasu inwardly flinched at the sneer in its voice but remained calm as spoke "what are you talking about" the hollow laughed cruelly "you were never human to begin with" Raven felt shock ripped through her mind.
"Who are you?" the hollow sniggered " we met long ago but you were a little girl when I chased you through this town and tried to devour you".
Flashback
I woke up in the rain and looked around there was a line of houses along the road. As I pushed myself to my feet I felt dizzy with questions like 'who am I' or 'what am I' she looked around trying to figure out what to do. The first thing to do was to find shelter from the rain so she got up and walked along the road. As she passed the first house she heard a noise and looked around, there was just houses lining the roads and the mailbox's that went with each house. I began to walk down the road through the rain, then found myself running through the rain looking for a place to hide she glanced over my shoulder and saw a monster that had a hole in its chest. As I ran questions ran through my mind "who I am, what am I, and where am I?" I arrived at the street with a line of houses. After that as she got to the last house as her knees gave out from under her and she collapsed onto the rain soaked ground. As she began to lose coconscious.
End flashback
Karasu snapped out of the sudden memory and jumped up as the hollow smashed its fist into the tree she had been standing by shattering it as he roared "you are a girl with no memories a girl with no last name a NoBody!" emphasizing the last word.
Before he could say another word Karasu cleaved his head in two. the hollow screamed out loud as it disintegrated into nothingness.
As Ichigo and Rukia ran up Karasu lowered her head as her fever overwhelmed her again. " I am not human I am not alive a living dead!!!" she sobbed her through her hands. Until a pair of strong arms wrapped around her pinning her arms to her sides yet held her gently. "Karasu you maybe a death god but you will always be my sister" Karasu thrashed about for a bit. As she calmed down, just as she was about to say something when her vision went dark.
3 days later
Karasu was better and she seemed to be happy but Ichigo and Rukia noticed that she want into deep dark thought when she was alone, only snapping out of it when someone asked her a question. Orihime and Chad looked worried about Karasu as well as she thought about something she did not remember having
Memory flashback
Flames were surrounding her as a beautiful woman held her close as a voice whispered " I am going to cast a spell on you so you will live a normal life in the living world away from death gods and hollows, I am afraid I won't be able to see you grow up my child just know that your mother will always love you" a shadow of a robed figure stood over them raising a sword over both them as the blade whistled through the air, a spray of blood, a flash of light, and then darkness. (a sad flashback of memory)
End flashback
Karasu felt a tear trikle down her cheek. "who was that woman in my mind"
Elsewhere
A dark furry creature was chuckling " soon we will meet death gods"
Omake
Hitsugaya was wandering around the serietei when he ran into a man with long white hair. "Ukitake what brings you here?"
The man smiled "oh Hitsugaya taicho I wanted to congratulate you for winning the tournament by giving_" Ukitake reached behind him pulling out a batch of candy and stuffing it in the squad 10 captains arms then left saying "if you want more I have more at my quarters" Hitsugaya sweat dropped "what on earth was that about?" then headed off with the words "why me "
