Chapter 12: Yama is Yamasorrowichi
I walked into the classroom and flopped down in my desk with a yawn escaping my lips. After a couple minutes, Ichigo sat in front of me. He turned back to look at me and actually gave me a look other than annoyance. I looked back at him seriously.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"Nothing. You're just being weird."
"How am I being weird?" I snapped while giving him an annoyed look.
"Well, you're usually really happy and full of energy." I was usually like that, but I'd been having so many dreams about the people here in Karakura Town, except they took place when we were kids, that I was having a hard time figuring out what was true and what wasn't.
"I just had trouble sleeping last night." That was true, but that was because I was trying to figure out what was true and what wasn't.
"Hey, Yama!" I looked over at Tatsuki standing in the doorway.
"Coming," I called while getting up and rushing over to her. "What is it?"
"I thought of another way to jog your memory."
"Are you sure that this is all real and not some crazy and elaborate set up where people played with our minds?"
"Yes," she replied seriously. "Now, relax. I will make sure that you, Yamasorrowichi Kunarowichi, remember everything about who you are and who you were!"
"You're a little too determined, even for you and Tater Tot Tatsuki combined."
"I want my old friend back!"
"I'm sorry!"
"You better be!"
"Tatsuki, you're being mean!"
"After school, I challenge you!"
"What?"
"I want to fight you after school!"
"No! No way! I'm not fighting you Tatsuki!"
"Too bad! Fighting against me should stir up some old memories. And if it doesn't, I can finally prove that I'm better than you are!" I don't know why, but hearing her say that made me a bit frustrated.
"No way! I accept your challenge! I'm going to be the better one! I will beat you! You have no chance against me!"
"That's what you think!"
"That's what I know!"
"Ha! You obviously haven't gotten smarter since you were gone for so long, Kunarowichi!"
"Shut up, Arisawa!
"Wait! Yamasorrowichi Kunarowichi?" Ichigo asked from right behind me. I turned around to look at him and nodded.
"Yeah, that's my full name. You weren't paying attention when I introduced myself to the class, were you?"
"Obviously not if I'm barely now learning that you're Yamasorrowichi! Man, it's been so long! You left so long ago!"
"Yeah, I've been told that. So, Carrot Cake, I take it that we were close?"
"You mean, you don't remember me?"
"I remember nothing of this place. I just recently learned that I really used to live here. Maybe you can help me fill in some holes."
"I can try Yamichi."
"Yamichi? That's an odd nickname."
"We were four! Give me a break!"
"Ok, ok. I'll give you a break. Hey, did I used to call you carrot cake when we were younger too?"
"Yes."
"How did you not realize it was me?"
"I thought you died."
"That would do it."
"Yeah. You transferred schools and then just disappeared one day. I thought you were dead."
"Well, as you can see, I'm not."
"And you haven't really changed much."
"Well, that's interesting."
"It really is."
"Ok, now that we have all this settled, we should actually go inside the room and stop blocking the doorway," Tatsuki said while pushing me inside.
"Right!" I walked over to my desk with Ichigo right behind me so he could go sit at his desk. Uryu walked in the room and went to stand by Ichigo's desk, where he immediately launched into some conversation.
"So, are you really going to fight me after school?" Tatsuki asked me with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah. I have no reason not to. You want to fight me and you know where I live so I can't get a moment of peace if you feel like you don't want me to have one."
"That's true."
"See? I have a reason. Besides, you saying that you're better really gave me a fighting spirit for some odd reason."
"How interesting."
"Seriously dude! Get a hobby where you aren't calling people interesting all the time! Anyways, I look forward to fighting against you Tatsuki. I'm going to win."
"No way! You're going down, Yama!" I jumped to my feet.
"Just try to beat me, Tatsuki Arisawa!"
"I won't even have to try, Yamasorrowichi Kunarowichi!" We stared at each other challengingly.
"Yamasorrowichi Kunarowichi?" Uryu asked. I turned my head to look at him and nodded.
"Yeah, that's my name."
"I have to go," he grumbled with a scowl on his face before turning around and stomping out of the room.
"Odd. That's not like him," I said after he left.
"You broke my friend," Ichigo told me.
"Oh shut up!"
(A/N: And there's Uryu getting mad at Yama. His reasons will be explained at some point, so yeah. I don't own Bleach or its characters. I only own Yama and the weird classmate that always calls her interesting. Thanks for reading! Have a nice day!)
