Chapter 2: Could this town be any weirder?

Melody POV

Lunch time came and Selene and I sat under a plum blossom tree at the back of the school eating our lunch. We were chatting away, actually, I was chatting away when an orange-haired girl with really big... you know.... came up to us with some other girls.

"Hey! My name is Inoue Orihime! Nice to meet you! I hope we can be friends!" she greeted cheerfully.

Being the peppy girl I am, I sprang up onto my feet, with a mouthful of onigiri in my mouth and introduced myself.

"Hawwo! My mame ish Mewoby an dish ish my coushin Silene!" I said hoping that Orihime could understand mouthful language.

I'm pretty sure I heard Selene mutter 'You're disgusting'.

"Do you want to come and sit with us?" Orihime asked. Of course I agreed, much to Selene's disgust.

We sat down at their table and talked about a lot of things; Where we come from, hobbies, food, boys, how I found that puppy and left it at home and nearly got killed by Selene etc...

"You know that guy Kurosaki Ichigo? Why is called Ichigo? Did his parents hate him or something? Why would they want to name him Ichigo? It means strawberry right?" I asked without paying much attention to the figure approaching behind me.

"Oi! You making fun of my name you little midget?"

I turned around to be face to face (well...face to knee) with a knee.

"Hi Strawb- I mean Ichigo! We were just talking about you!" said Tatsuki trying to hold her giggles down.

"No kidding" He muttered "Inoue, can I talk to you for a minute?"

Orihime followed him to behind the drinking fountain where a gigantic guy with brown curly hair that covered his eyes and a blue haired guy with glasses were waiting for them.

"There they go again" sigh Tatsuki "They always go off by themselves. It's like they have a secret club that we're not suppose to know about"

'Well if it's a secret club, of course you're not suppose to know about it...' I heard Selene mutter.

I turned my attention to the four and sure enough they were engaged in some intense conversation.

Weird I thought.

After school

Selene and I were walking home in silence; I was praying the puppy hadn't done any of its business on our new furniture.

We turned a corner and we saw two men, one wearing a striped green hat and clogs and the other having braided hair and wearing sunglasses walking towards the way we came.

We past each other and suddenly Selene stopped and looked back at the two men.

"What's wrong Selene?" I asked.

"Those men... They're a bit... weird..." she replied in a distant voice which gave me the chills.

"Huh?"

"They just seem, unnatural.... different... almost as if they're from another world"

"Selene, are you ok? What are you talking about. They're just two random guys wearing sunglasses when it's not even that sunny and hats and clogs in the middle of the 21st century! Well they are a bit weird but that doesn't mean that they're from another world" I explained. "Selene, your losing it..."

Back at the house(Selene's POV)

I gulped. I rested my hand on the doorknob. Please god... I prayed Please let there be no yellow liquids or....other excretion on the floor or on our luggage, on anything

I turned the doorknob, stepped inside and stopped...the house...was...wait for it......

perfectly normal.

"POCKY!" Melody yelled happily

silence....

"I think I hear the tv" she said puzzled

sure enough when we entered the living room the dog was sitting on the floor watching tv.

"Holy...crap?" I muttered..

"Melody are you sure that's even a puppy...? What the hell did you pick up?"

Pocky was watching a dog show.

The puppy seemed to sigh as a big white poodle appeared on screen.

"She out of your reach" I muttered

I swore I heard the puppy whimper.

"POCKY!!!!! I MISSED YOU!!!!" shouted Melody...

I was so gonna go deaf living with her...

The puppy jumped up when it heard it's new name and then happily ran towards Melody.

I felt a headache coming on

"I'm feeling a bit unwell, I'm going to lie down for a bit" I said to Melody.

"What about dinner!" she wailed

"Cook something" I said then I immediately regretted my words.

"H-h-hold on a sec!" I yelled "order pizza or something"

"But I love cooking!" said Melody pouting

"I love living" I said back.

I lay in my bed and stared at the ceiling

Those two men seemed to have a sort of aura around them I thought

It had felt as though some sort of energy had been radiating of their bodies making me want to fall to my knees and curl up in a ball.

"There is something strange and maybe potentially dangerous in this town" I muttered.

I wasn't one to go looking for trouble but something told me I had to get to the bottom of this.

I could hear Melody's cheerful voice talking on the phone.

Should I involve her? I thought If I get involved there will be a high chance of her being in danger.

"Lets see how things turn out" I muttered getting up when I smelt the aroma of pizza coming from outside my room.

Urahara's POV

"Urahara-san..."

"Yes I know Tessai-san. That girl, she noticed our spiritual energy." I said as I fanned myself with my fan. I smiled to myself. "Things are going to be interesting these days~"

We arrived back at the shop but I didn't go in.

"Tessai-san, I'm just going to take a walk. I'll be right back"

I walked past empty parks, schools and streets before I reached my destination. I opened my fan again and fanned myself although it wasn't that hot.

"Hm.. What a nice apartment" I said to myself. I then shunpoed in-front of one of the windows and looked inside. There, sleeping on the bed was a small girl with honey coloured hair with a small white dog sleeping next to her.

"How cute" I said "I'm sorry I have to do this" I stepped through the wall without a sound and stood beside her bed.

"Sweet dreams" I placed my hand on her forehead.
