As soon as I knew it, it was the end of the day, and luckily for me it was a Friday. I waited for the words that would change my life forever, those words could only be spoken by one man, one man with such power to change fates, one man, who was bald.

" Alright, class dismissed, remember we have a pop quiz on the nuclear structures" My science teacher said as he opened the door, in less then seconds a stampede of my class mates rushed out the door, cheering, I wondered if they did that every Friday, I didn't want to be an outcast, so I ran into the stampede, someone, when I came out of it, I was missing a shoe. After I found my shoe in someone's back pocket, I searched all over the school searching for Ichigo, I said his name once, when I was searching in the boy's locker room, and I didn't know they hated him so much, cause they dumped me in the garbage can, and tipped me over. I'm used to it, so it's not such a big deal.

And then I found him, he was just leaning against his locker, staring at the clock across the hall, and the weird thing was, he was wearing a watch. I walked over to him and patted him on the shoulder, he was pretty tall, about 2 inches taller then myself. He turned his head, and looked at me then grabbed my hand, and did some sort of magic trick, in seconds I was on the ground, with his foot on my chest.

" Uncle….Uncle…." I said as he pressed deeper into my soft tummy. He looked and me and arched an eyebrow, he took his foot off of me, and pulled me up.

" Do I know you?" He grabbed me by the collar and looked into my eyes, " Those eyes, you remind me of someone" He said releasing his grip.

" Yeah, I'm your 2nd cousin, remember, old Haze, me and you, remember, good times, good times" I said about to pat his shoulder, then realizing what happened not to long ago. He forced a smile, and started to walk out the door.

" Wait…Where are you going, are you going to Uncles".. or I mean your dad's house?" I said catching up to him, he was pretty fast, he was always getting stronger , even when we were kids, it was weird, one day he couldn't beat a bully up, and the day after, he could.

" So how's Uncle doing?" Ichigo said stuffing his hands into his pockets as he was about to exit the school.

" Oh, he's doing good, and Ichigo, how's Uncle Isshin doing?" I said, trying to act as serious as I could.

" Damn, that old man, he still doesn't know when to stop beating his own kids, and he still won't take that stupid memorial of mom off the wall, he said he would, but I know he's hiding it somewhere, that clever little.." Just Ichigo's phone suddenly rung, surprisingly his ring tone, was jingle bells. But anyways as Ichigo listened in, his eyes widened, and he frowned. He looked at me, then frowned again.

" Hey, I have to go, to um.. The gift shop, it's my um….. It's Karin's Birthday" Ichigo said as he tucked the cell phone in his pocket, and was about to ditch me. But some girl bumped into him, she had orange hair just like Ichigo, and seemed pretty fragile-like.

" Oh…it's you Ichigo.. Well I need t-" she was about to finish her sentence, when Ichigo moved her aside, and smiled at me.

" Sorry Orihme, I have to go, but I'll talk to you later," Ichigo said as he sprinted out the door. I thought I heard him say " stall him" under his breath to the girl, but I guess I was wrong. Leaving the two of us behind, and just to drop you a hint, I wasn't good with girls, at all. Orihme looked at me, bent her head to the side, and smiled, I backed a couple feet away, and tried to think of a lie, to get me out of here.

" Are you one of Ichigo's friends too, I've never seen you before, are you new here? And my names Orihme, by the way" She said as she stuck out her hand and smiled. My eyes squinted and stared at her, she had quite a large chest, and I couldn't move my eye sight from that area, until I remembered my manners, I quickly looked back up, way back up, almost at the lighting area above me. " So are you and Ichigo close?" I said trying to bring up a casual conversation.

" What makes you say that.. Were friends, were friends, were really great friends, were friends, were really great friends, were friends" She said as she started to blush. She looked like she was about to break into song, I just pointed at the ground and yelled, " Giant Cockroach!". She looked at it, and squeaked. I started to sprint out the back door, where Ichigo headed out, and exited, Orihme was left running around the halls. I ran out the back and started to sprint down the street, I needed to reach up with Ichigo, I didn't feel like getting ditched again.

" ICHIGO!" I yelled down the street, as I sped as fast as my legs could take me to Karakura Town, I thought he was at home, but then I heard an explosion down by a park on the corner of the street. I stopped and ran over, but I hid behind the street post, and looked around, I saw something unbelievable, something as horrific as hell itself, I saw…
