Disclaimer: I dont own bleach.

As the girl shuffled through the busy streets of her town of Karakura she felt a tightness in her chest a feeling of unease that crept up her back like a cockroach. Her glossy hair had to be swept out of her soft round face, she brushed it gingerly, taping her hair pins as she always did as a stress release. Not having him at her seat made have a sadness she could not understand and a burnning desire to be where he was at. She had visited earlier, Ichigo was doing some prep fighting with the Visoreds them telling him he had to sharpen his spirit before his fated battle. The girl never was told anything but tidbitts but she prayed, day in and out for her protector.

The boy who held her heart and swung his blade with all he had to save her. Orihime Inoue felt using Tsubaki when in a street clearing to find the training site once more. A smile of glee found itself strecthing her lips at the thought of Ichigo eating what she cooked after winning against...it. She grimaced for a second but thought of how nice it would be to see a smile on Kurosaki's face, a true happy smile something that the orange haired boy had not had in months.

"After I feed him and Shinji and the other nice people with my curry with strawberries and jam we'll talk and laugh and then he'll beat Aizen and..and it'll be like it was, no battles no sadness or blood"

she hugged herself as her thoughts turned negative.

Her school Uniform clung tightly to her bulging chest. Orihime breathed hard as the usual portal to the Visoreds training grounds was shattered in diffrent spots, as if someone had ripped the hole open. Behind her, far behind her she could have sworn she herd a cackle of laughter, evil laughter. Shaking her head she told herself as she entered

"Positive, think positive, Kurosaki kun wouldnt let any-"

The girl stopped as she started off in a sprint going down the marble stairs and into the barren mountain-like area. The strong smell of Iron and broken steel fragments lit the area up.

"No, no"

she repeated in her mind, she saw something inching close to her that was caked in red, clay peices adorned whatever it was

"Hey princess"it gasped.

"Hiyori!"

Orihime ran to the red clad girl, seeing her ragid she instantly tried using her time reverse heal ability but on contact a white aura snapped her hands, burnning them and repulsed Tsubaki away. Hiyori had nothing but a broken busted hilt, and her eyes half yellow, her torso almost split

'What happend?!"

"H,We,...we..."

the young visored puked onto Orhime's shirt the young girl tried applying disinfectent and bandages but Hiyori laughed and coughed

"Stupid girl, inferior human materials wont help me"

she said before having a spasm.

"Wheres Ichigo?"

asked Orihime, fully shaking. Hiyori mumbled

"We..couldnt stop it...so strong it split Love in half with one strike as as for Hachi it split his head off...before slicing off Shinji's arm...Shinji was able to escape but as for me...you...can...see Im not lucky..."

"What happend to him! You got to tell me!"

she gripped Hiyori by her jacket ".

"..All fruit rotts girl...even Strawberries"

she said before her eye color faded. Orihime found herself vomiting from panic, cold chills went down her warm skin, she bit her lip so hard it bled as she ran to the spot Ichigo relaxed at.

Images and words from the protector were in her heart and mind, ripping at her defense's causing intense emotional pain.

"Im sorry for being so weak...I swear I will get stronger and protect you!"

"Im getting stronger...I can feel just by sparring with these Guys, the calming effect"

"Theres no need to worry about Aizen cuz I know we'll win"

"Your food is weird but taste good."

"No, no,no, no!"

she muttered. Orihime fell to her knees, eyes dialating as she found a blood pool and orange specs on the ground, the scent of the spiritual energy and feel of it was none other then Ichigos.

"All fruit rotts girl"

it rung in her head and she rocked back and forth until her chest heaved, tears flung everywhere and she screamed

"KUROSAKI-KUN!"

. Going so into shock the young girl collasped in the blood pool, for shed never smile again for he who made her smile was gone.

End of chap
