Chapter 2 "What's wrong?"
Hi! I do not own bleach, homestuck or any mentioned fandoms. I decided to update any way despite the fact that I didn't get any reviews as I realised that just one chapter isn't going to catch anyones attention to review. But anyway Enjoy!
Karakt: JUST GET ON WITH THE STORY YOU STUPID HUMAN. YOUR GOD DEMANDS IT OF YOU
Ah Karkat is always so nice, isn't he?

You can not be The Deathberry yet as he is still asleep. Try to be someone else or come back when he awakens.

Fine! You sure are persistent little shit aren't you? But before we awaken our sleeping beauty let's take a look at his surroundings, shall we? He was currently laying in a large field of grass not far away from Karakura city. It was nearby enough that he would be able to return home fast but far away enough that it was a considerable distance from the city limits. There was a country road not far away from where he was so he wouldn't get lost and in case of emergency. It was a beautiful day today and the sky was a pretty light blue color with only one or two stray clouds. The grass as a lush green and obviously not tainted by carbon dioxide that filled the air due to cars and factories.
Ichigo himself was laying on the grass sleeping like the dead. He wore a different outfit then in his inner world. He was wearing a black and orange shirt and black vest. His jeans were a washed out blue and he wore plain orange sneakers. He was half laying in the shadow of a tree that wasn't too high and easy too climb. His orange hair was messy and his sleeping face as free of his usual scowl. His face suddenly looked years younger. You could see the faint out linings of a smile on his face as if he was having a nice dream. There was a laptop laying in the grass beside him that was protected by an orange cover with skulls decorating it in different colors.

Ichigo didn't make any movement at first. Then suddenly he threw an arm up to cover his eyes and he let out a groan. "Ugh..damn that Karkat. He just kicked me out of my own inner world." He muttered under his breath. He slowly sat up and scratched the back of his head. He let out a yawn and smiled despite himself as he slowly opened his eyes. While they showed slight irritation at being kicked out he still knew that is was because Karkat cared about him. In the short few months he's known him he's come to realize that underneath his rude exterior he actually just was a big softy with a heart too caring and kind. You just had to look past his many different layers of rudeness, crude words and fake anger. Depending on the circumstances you may even see him as he truly was without his defenses up. He cherished it when it happened because it was quite the rare occurrence.
Ichigo stretched his arms and upper body from where he was sitting before letting out a satisfied sigh as that had been quite the good rest. The best rest he's had in a week actually. He than picked up the laptop before popping it on his lap and turning it on. He went trough some of his essay's to double check them before saving them in a different map and browsed the internet for a while before logging into his Bugbuddy acount. (I know lame name but why don't you try to come up with something better?) He didn't have a lot of messages save for some ad's and some concerned messages from Yuzu. Ichigo smiled at the thought of his sweet little sister. Even when she was busy with school, friends or housework she still managed to make time to try and check up on him.
He send her a message to ease her worries, reassuring her that he would be home for dinner and that he would help her with the dishes and her homework. He didn't need to wait long for her enthusiastic reply and smiled when he saw it.
DeathsGuardian has started to bug BouncyCook.
DG: Hey YZ, I'm coming home in a few.
DG: Don't worry. I'll be there for dinner and I'll do the dishes.
DG: You should also prepare your homework for later and try to pin point where you are getting stuck at.
BC: Nii-chan Don't worry me like that! But okay! Come home fast we're having your favorite tonight!
Ichigo then closed his laptop and stood up while reaching for his black messenger bag that was hanging on one of the tree branches of the tree. "Oh well. Guess it's time to go I guess." Ichigo muttered under his breath. He then walked on towards the road where he broke into a run back home.
As he ran he never noticed a shadowy figure emerging from it's hiding spot behind the tree.

You are now the BouncyCook also known as Yuzu Kurosaki, the younger sister of one of our protagonists. Yuzu has grown in the past year and while not too drastic the changes were still noticeable. Her short brown hair had grown a down to her shoulders and she had grown a little taller. But aside from the obvious changes there was still something else. Something only her twin and older brother really noticed but didn't pay much attention to. ( In case of the twin) It was the way her eyes perceived the world. They were of course still full of warmth and kindness to whoever they laid their eyes on but there was a stubborn gleam added. It spoke of the kind of willpower that put the strongest of diamonds to shame. It still surprised people when it seemed that Yuzu instead of Karin seemed to have gotten that from her brother and mother. While Karin was the most blunt and alethic of the two Yuzu was no slouch either. While Karin took after her brother and father with their rough appearance, Yuzu seemed to mirror her mother in her elegance and grace despite the occasional clumsiness. (Though their brother also seemed to have the same grace) She also seemed to have lost her past naivety and seemed more mature.
Yuzu guessed that, while she was looking into the hallway mirror, it would be natural to lose her naivety once she entered middle school but she knew that wasn't the only reason. The real reason was that she had to change in order to help her brother. Yes, She still didn't understand what happened last year and only knew snippets of the truth but she didn't need to know everything. The only thing she knew though was that whatever it was, it had broken her big brother. She still remembered how he used to start running out of the house at random times of the day and night, the weird occurrences and strange people that appeared at their doorstep, searching for het brother. She remembered how happy he was. How he seemed satisfied whenever he came back and all the weird friends he seemed to make. But she also remembered how that suddenly all stopped.
His friends stopped hanging out with him. Weird things stopped happening around him.(mostly) But most important of all: How he seemed to withdraw into himself. His nightmares and when he fell out of his bead in the middle of the night with tears streaming down his face. She wouldn't even have known if she hadn't gone to check up on him one night because she heard him fall out of his bed for the umpteenth time that week. She had been shocked to see him silently crying, not even noticing her until she was sitting next to him on the floor, soothing him telling him it would all be alright.
She knew from that moment with complete certainty that something had gone completely and utterly wrong. And when his sleeping habits started to change she simply adapted to it and continued to spend time with him. She went to bed with Karin each evening and slept until midnight when she knew that he father and sister were too far gone that not even a carnival would be able to wake them. Shen then went to the kitchen made two cups of hot chocolate and went to her brothers room, who would be silently waiting for her at his desk surfing the internet and doing various things like programming or looking up random things or places in the world while she watched or played with her own computer. By the time it was 3 am she would return to her room to sleep till six and continue your day. To make up for her lost sleep she began to take naps with him in various places like the living room or in the park. Sometimes you were even joined by Karin but it seemed that she had taken over in whatever had brother had been doing before it all started going down hill. Sometimes Ichigo would tell you about what happened and explain certain things to you. Of course he didn't tell you everything but he told you enough for you to know that while he resented his apparent former friends for abandoning him for seemingly his own protection he didn't hate them.
When he told her this she would smile sweetly and tell him that she would never abandon her big brother and that she would always help him. He would just smile and hug her and she would curse all of his friends to hell. And if she smiled a little too sweetly to her sisters friends who obviously were her brothers former friends and made the food a little too spicy or sour then that was just a coincidence. And if it was more then that, well, it isn't something totally obvious anyway.
Yuzu looked at the clock one more time when she suddenly heard the front door open. She let out happy squeel and launched herself at her brother with a large smile and "Welcome home" before tugging him along into the kitchen to help her set the table and talking his ears off with her excited chatter. And if she ignored her other family members a bit more then necessary as they attempted to talk to her then it was just a coincidence. Just like the fact that she smiled at the two figures standing in the doorway hidden from the rest of the family. She saw the purple and yellow figures return the gesture with their own smiles revealing sharp teeth before she continued with her dinner as they disappeared from doorway.
Yes there was absolutely nothing wrong and it was all a coincidence. And if she knew more than she should and if she was a little more vicious then she thought than that wasn't really that important.
Not really.
