(Sorry for this really shitty chapt. I wasn't too inspired today. Gomen-ne! I swear I'll make it up to you in the next chapter!"

Chapt 2

Toshiro and Karin walked slowly through the other Districts.

"Damn, I've been to 5 orphanages already." Karin sighed, dropping to the ground. "Maybe I should just go live by myself around East Rukongai. Life would be easier." Toshiro stared into the sky. Karin watched him. "Oi, Toushiro?" She poked him. "What District are you from?"

"District 1." He sat down next to her. They both sat wordlessly, lost in their thoughts.

"Do they have orphanages around there?" Karin asked, lying down on the grass. Toushiro nodded.

"Yeah, but not the type you would like."

"How?"

"Well, if you're a girl they teach you about being proper and manners. If you're a boy, you learn about being the next successor or learn about history and fighting."

"Hmm." Karin thought. Toushiro waited for her decision. Karin stayed silent for a while.

"Well?" Toushiro snapped. He was not a very patient boy. Karin glared at him.

"Ugh, fine. I'll give it a try!" She through her hands up in the air and walked away. Toushiro ran to catch up with her. She suddenly stopped and turned around with a gleam in her eyes.

"They…wouldn't happen to have kick ball there? Do they?" Karin asked, rubbing her hands together. Toushiro thought for a while.

"I think. I'm pretty sure they do have games every once in a while." He said. Karin immediately grabbed his hand and began running at top speed, leaving dust trails behind her.

"Then what the hell are we doing here? Let's go!" She yelled.

-In District 1-

"So…this is it?" Karin's eye twitched in annoyance. Toushiro looked up at the building.

"Yep." He said. He saw Karin visibly flinch. It was large and the girls house was…very…not fitting for her.

"I'm gonna barf." Karin said as soon as she saw all the fitting and straight backs the girls had to go through.

"It's gonna be fine." Toushiro reassured. Karin glared at him.

"If I don't make it out alive, bring onigiri to my grave every week." Karin whispered. Toushiro sighed, but Karin looked at him expectantly.

"Fine." He reluctantly said, shoving her though the doors. The girl from behind the desk looked up and down at Karin.

"Who are you? An orphan?" She said coldly. Karin gulped and nodded, her eyes traveled around the room and saw a flash of white hair at the window. She saw Toushiro looking through, and gave him the deadliest death glare she ever gave. "Eyes up here." The lady snapped. Karin decide on the spot, she did not like this lady. She glared at her too.

"What's your name?" The lady sniffed, obviously annoyed that this dirty girl dared to glare at her.

"Karin." This lady obviously had some problems.

"A girl?" The Lady was surprised, she looked like a boy. Karin glared at her some more until she was done inspecting her.

"Yeah. What the hell else would I be?" Karin asked rudely. The lady cringed at the foul language she used.

"First rule of this orphanage, no cursing." She scowled. Karin rolled her eyes back to the window, Toushiro was gone. "Well, I suppose a filthy mutt like you never learned. I'll send Lily for some clothes." She then turned around and shouted something at a small girl, who instantly obeyed.

"What District did you come from? Or do you not remember?" The lady probed. She was filling out some sheet. Karin sighed from boredom.

"District 80." She said, the lady looked slightly shocked but then scribbled something down.

"Age?"

"12 years."

"Well, that's it for now, I guess." The lady sighed. The girl then returned with clothes for Karin.

"Minene-sama. I brought the clothes you asked for." The small girl whispered, bowing down. So this lady's name is Minene? Karin thought.

"Very well. Give them to her and you may leave." The girl nodded and placed the clothes next to Karin then left.

"Go to that room, wash yourself, change, then meet the girls in precisely ten minutes." Minene turned to leave and Karin made a face behind her. Karin sighed and went into the room she was assigned to. Man, she was gonna pound Toushiro the next time she saw him. It hasn't even been ten minutes and she already hated this place.
