Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach. Nor do I own Ursula, or Amaye or Mala.
Notes: I hope you're beginning to understand this fanfic now...ha. But as Kisuke Urahara 868 said, 'Anybody notice that all the Ocs in here are female?' Not completely true, Kashi is male, and there will be a new Oc arriving that is male, and as seen in the last chapter, the mysterious man who appeared next to (past) Yuzuki.
Hope you guys are understanding this! _''
Enjoy!
"The clock strikes midnight,
As green eyes will never grow weary.
Forever she remains,
Holding the hands of time."

Number Eight:
The Pendulumn & I
Recap:
"Ha! And there he is! The man of the hour!" Mala laughed.
And he held his hand up to his stripe hat and shook his head.
"You shouldn't be here." he spoke, angered.
Yuzuki looked back at the man.
Her head throbbed in pain and she passed out onto the ground.
'What's going on?'
-100 Years Ago-
Mala groaned, her body twitching with pain. She had underestimated her opponet.
"Quite shameful..." she huffed.
Yuzuki walked up holding her blade in the air, and putting it back in it's sheath. Yuzuki frowned, and nelt down next to Mala, and held out a roll of bandages.
"Arrancar-san's arm...is broken."
Mala looked up at Yuzuki.
"What? You've got to be kidding me!" Mala yelled. "You're my enemy! Why don't you kill me?"
Yuzuki shook her head.
"Yuzuki may be Arrancar-san's enemy...but Arrancar-san is not Yuzuki's enemy..." she spoke, and took the bandages to Mala's arm.
"You're strange..." Mala turned her head and blushed.
Yuzuki smiled. "Thank you."
Kisuke sat down in his shop, with the Arrancar sitting across from him, Kisuke's eyes were angry, almost demented.
"Do you know what you've done?"
Mala crossed her arms. "How was I supposed to know the brat lost her memory?"
Kisuke sighed. "What are you doing here? Are you working for Aizen?"
Mala scoffed. "I quit that sandbox many many years ago. I came here looking for that brat."
"Why?"
Mala blushed furiously. "I don't have to tell you anything!"
Ursula came in through the slide doors, carrying a tray of two cups of tea. She placed one by Kisuke and one in front of Mala.
"Then leave." Kisuke said. "You can't be here."
Mala stood up, slamming her palms on the table.
"I can be here, bucket man!"
Kisuke glared, his eyes turning almost a demon red. "Why?"
Mala growled. "B-Be...because..."
Mala sighed and lowered her head.
"I owe that brat my life..."
Mala looked up at Kisuke.
"I'm not a loser who doesn't keep her promises."
Yuzuki groaned, turning lightly to the side. And she felt no floor. Nothing but air. She opened her eyes and looked down at the white nothing.
"AGH!"
She expected to be falling but, wasn't.
"What...the...?"
She looked around, and infront of her was a large gold pendulumn that swung lightly to the sides.
"What is this place? Am I dead or something?" Yuzuki looked around.
"Hmm...it's been a long time, Yuzuki."
She turned around to see a man dressed in dark green tattered clothes, his hair was pitch black and short and straight and cupped his cheeks. He lifted up his head to reveal his pale green eyes.
"How do you know my name?" Yuzuki asked.
"I've known your name for over one thousand years. It's really the only name I know." he took steps forward.
"Sorry. But I'm not one thousand." Yuzuki spoke.
The man tilted his head. "You've changed. You're hyperactive additude is gone. You've matured."
Yuzuki glared. "What are you talking about mister?"
The man sighed deeply.
"It's no use in talking to you. You don't remember me."
Yuzuki scoffed. "Remember you? I don't even know you!"
The man laughed.
"Your eyes never grew weary. Your face always shined with brightness. You never had any fear, and you never rejected anything, even if it seemed unreal. You were always kind, and though not so smart...you had a heart big enough for everyone."
"Or at least, that's what he said."
Yuzuki's head throbbed as he spoke.
"Ahh..." she gasped.
"That throbbing in your head...it means your memories are coming back."
"M-Memories?"
"You know who you are. Find yourself. And don't fail me, and I shall not fail you, Master."
And everything went black once more.
