Chapter 3: New in School. Just that brings a Mystery.

I groaned. The person continued to shake me. I groaned more and rolled around in my blankets to make a cocoon for myself out of my blankets. The shaking continued. Soon enough, more hands joined and I realized that it wasn't only one person anymore. I unrolled and threw the blankets off of me before slowly sitting up.

"What?" I asked Kisuke.

"You have to make breakfast and then get ready. I'm enrolling you in school. You are a high school student, right?"

"Yes. I'll make breakfast." I stood and made it to the door before I had to stop and turn around to face Kisuke. "You weren't kidding about school, were you?"

"Not at all."

"I really have to go to school? After all I've been through, you're making me go to school?" I asked with a sad face.

"It'll take your mind off of things."

"You're not easy to guilt trip, are you?" I asked normally.

"No. Now get up! I have your uniform almost ready! Tessai was nice enough to iron it."

"I should thank him after breakfast."

"That's a great idea. Now go cook."

"I get the point. Kids, thanks for joining in waking me up."

I left to pull back my hair and wash up a little before setting to work on a great breakfast. If I was going to cook for an allowance from some random guy that took me in, it had to be good. I just realized how that sounds. He's not a creeper though, so it's all good... I think.

"I don't want to wear this," I shouted while following Kisuke into the school yard and tugging at my uniform in an attempt to stretch it out and get the skirt to reach lower.

"Just calm down Yama. You'll be fine," Kisuke said in his smooth voice, causing me to cross my arms and pout behind him.

"Kisuke, is there a reason you brought me to this school instead of one closer to the shop? I saw like three schools on the way over here."

"I like this school. Any child I take care of is going to have the best education they can get. Besides, those weren't high schools. Now come along. The office is just inside here."

"I've been following you for the past twenty minutes. Of course I'll follow you into the office. I didn't come all the way over here just so I could leave before we enter the office. I'd just get lost again."

"Right. You're still new to town."

"I just got here the day before yesterday! Of course I'm still new! Come to think of it, I don't even remember coming into town. I must have hit my head really hard when I passed out yesterday. So how am I going to find my way back to the shop after school?"

"I made a map for you." He handed me the "map" so I could look at it while he got the papers for my registration.

"Kisuke," I said when he got back.

"Yes Yama?"

"This isn't a map. It's a bunch of squiggly lines with words."

"Oh. So it is." He started filling out the papers.

"Just give me the address. I'll ask if someone can take me there."

"Here you go." He handed me another paper.

"Why didn't you give me this in the first place if you had it with you?"

"I thought the map would be more helpful."

"It's not."

I flopped down in a chair beside him while he filled out the papers. After a while, he handed me the other papers and I angrily filled out the papers. I finished my forms and shoved them into Kisuke's chest before sitting back and crossing my arms so he could deal with everything. Kisuke walked back up after a while of me sitting in my chair, bored.

"Alright Yama. I'm going back home. Wait here until someone arrives to take you to class. Have fun."

"Ok Kisuke. I have lunch in the fridge. Just put it in the microwave for two minutes and split it with Tessai. Have fun running the shop. I'll be back after school to help out."

"Bye~! Have fun~!" He practically danced out of the office.

"I'm beginning to regret my decision to stay with him and to come to this school," I muttered under my breath.

"You can come with me. Class will start soon. I'll lead you to your class and inform your teacher."

I nodded and stood to follow the lady. We came up at a door and a teacher fairly quickly. We were on the third floor when we stopped. The woman that led me stopped to talk to the teacher.

"Alright. I'm going to go in and announce you. Then you can come in and introduce yourself when I say," the teacher said.

"Ok," I said to her. She went inside the room.

I sensed the strange energy that the monster the day before had. I stopped my bored and nervous act of twiddling my thumbs. It was so strange. My attention was drawn by that. I just stared at the direction it came from. The door opened.

"You can come in now."

"Right. Thank you," I said while shaking my head to return to normal and going inside the class.

"Introduce yourself to the class."

"Yes. Hello everyone! I'm Yama!"

I smiled even though I really wasn't happy. I was feeling really depressed. The teacher looked around from beside me as if waiting for me to continue.

"Is there anything you would like to add?"

"No. I think that's all. I'm not really an interesting person."

"I'm sure that there's something you can tell us that we don't know."

"Well, I guess I can add more. My full name is Yamasorrowichi Kunarowichi, but I prefer to be called Yama."

"There's no way a pretty angel like you could be that evil monster!"

"I have no idea what's going on." The teacher shrugged so I shrugged as well. "I like crafts and cooking."

"There we go. We have a crafts club so maybe you can join that to make friends."

"I wish I could, but I have an afterschool job to go to. If I didn't then I would love to join, but I can't. Oh well though."

"Alright. Where should we put you?" She examined the room.

"How about you sit right over there? That empty seat."

"Thank you." I nodded and headed towards my seat behind a boy with bright orange hair. It reminded me of another imaginary friend I used to have, though this guy was so busy looking outside that made me sure he wasn't like my imaginary friend at all.

I sat back in my chair and stretched a little when lunch rolled around. I pulled out the lunch I had made and set it on my desk before looking at the boy in front of me. I poked him on the shoulder. He spun around and looked at me.

"What?" he asked in an annoyed tone.

"Hello Snappy. I'm Yama."

"I'm not Snappy. My name is Ichigo."

"It's nice to meet you." I pulled out the paper that had my address on it.

"It's nice to meet you too."

"Hey, do you know where this is?" I asked shoving forward my address.

"No. I'm sorry." I groaned and sat back.

"Darn it." He returned to looking out the window and clenched his fist angrily. "Well, that's a bummer," I muttered before deciding to simply eat and ignore that weird energy from that monster.

(A/N: Hola! I don't know Spanish so that's it for Spanish at the moment. Now then. Thanks for reading! I don't own Bleach or its characters, just Yama really. Have an awesome day/night!)
