Chapter 1: Transfer Student
Ichigo sighed, burying his face in his folded arms. Class hadn't even begun and he already wanted to go home. It wasn't like he had anything better to do... He just didn't want to be HERE. Around, the other students conversed, their words melding inot one big drone.
Keigo: (motioning with his hands) You should have been there, Mizuiro! She had curves... Oh SO many CURVES!
Tatsuki: (angrily) You're such a pig, Keigo!
Keigo: (sneering) You're just mad cause no one will every talk about you like that!
Tatsuki: WHAT DID YOU SAY!
Keigo: (with false pity) Face it... You're just too... butch...
Tatsuki: (through clenched teeth) Why you...!
Mizuiro: (gently) Well, Arisawa... He has a point... You are a bit on the "rough" side...
Keigo: (laughing) "rough?" Sexless is more like it!
Tatsuki: (lunging at him) BASTARD!
Orhime: Tatsuki!
Mizuiro attempted to intercept her, but was effortlessly knocked to the side.
Chizuru: See! See! That's what I've been talking about! Orhime, why do you even bother with her? (leaning into Orhime's shoulder seductively) You know I love you more...
Tatsuki: DIE!
Teacher: (talking over the chatter) Class, your attention please.
The class gradually quieted down and all eyes gravitated toward the front of the room. Ichigo sat up and looked around.
Teacher: I'd like introduce Koga Shuuhamaru. He's a transfer student from Hikaido so please give him a warm welcome.
He was a teenager of medium height with a slender frame. The most outstanding thing about him was his hair which was bright sky blue. It matched his un-blinking eyes perfectly. Without even acknowledging the rest of the class, the boy silently made his way toward the center of the room and took his seat. For the rest of the class period, his eyes remained fixed to the front of the room. He never openned his school bag. He never spoke. He didn't even look up at the clock. He just sat there with that grim expression.
There was something about this guy, Ichigo thought to himself. It wasn't the way he sat or the fact that he didn't once lift his pencil. Though he couldn't put his finger on it, Ichigo knew that for a fact. Finally the bell rang, signifyinh the end of class. The students poured out of the room, flooding the halls in a wave of laughter and conversation. Ichigo took his time gathering up his belongs. He'd never been much for rushing out of the room. The halls would be conjested for a good five minutes anyway, so what was the point?
Orhime walked up along side his desk and leaned in to look at his textbook. she eyed the book cover with great interest and smiled happily.
Orhime: (cheerily) Wow, Ichigo! Your book cover is so cool! Did you draw those pictures yourself?
Ichigo: (flatly) Uh... No, Orhime... It came like that.
Orhime: (simply) Oh. (changing the subject) Did you want to walk home together?
To be perfectly honest, Ichigo had planned to spend the afternoon alone, but on second thought, a little company might not be so bad...
Ichigo: (finally) Okay.
Orhime: (smiling) Right! I'll meet you at the entrance when school lets out!
With that, she turned and bound out of the room. Ichigo never really did understand Orhime. Despite that, he admired her energy. She was one of the few constant things in his life. He'd be lying if he said she hadn't grown on him a bit. He could always count on her smiling face. Sometimes he felt stupid worrying all the time when she managed to remain so carefree. He shrugged.
As usual, all of his afternoon classes went by unreasonably slow. it didn't really matter much to him, though. For some reason, he couldn't keep his mind on anything other than the transfer student. Something about him hit a false note. Was he just over-thinking it? New students came in all the time. It was perfectly normal. Who was he to pass judgement on a guy he hadn't even met?
As he stewed in his own river of thoughts, Rukia leaned over toward him and poked him on the shoulder.
Ichigo: Mmm...?
Rukia: (whispering sternly) I can sense you too sensed the unusual aura surrounding that new boy...
Ichigo: (rasping back) I don't know what you're talking about?
Teacher: (harshly) You have something to share with the class, Mr. Kurosaki!
Ichigo: (angrily) Wha-!
Rukia: (standing abruptly) Excuse me, sir, but may I have a moment in the hall with Ichigo? Its urgent.
The class burst into a wave of snickering and whispers. Ichigo could feel his face turn red. Could she have said that any more suggestively? It seemed like every time she openned her mouth, Rukia managed to chip away a month's worth of scowls and bad attitude. The image he'd worked so hard to build...
Teacher: (clearing his throat) Of course, Miss Kuchiki.
Snatching Ichigo by the wrist, Rukia drug him out into the hall and closed the door behind them. She pulled him a few doors down, finally stopping under the girl's bathroom sign.
Ichigo: What the hell was that about!
Rukia: Quiet! You are being entirely too loud!
Rukia glanced around to make sure no one was coming, then spoke in a hushed tone.
Rukia: There is a strong spiritual aura surrounding that new boy...
Ichigo: ...!
Uryu: (suddenly) I also sensed it...
Ichigo jumped back, startled.
Ichigo: (surprised) W-where did you-!
Uryu: It doesn't matter. She is right, there is something odd about that transfer student...
Ichigo: (rubbing the back of his neck) So what? Its none of our business...
Uryu: You don't get it do you, Kurosaki? The energy emminating from that transfer student isn't a normal human aura! (looking away) But for some reason, i couldn't detect the reikai ribbons surrounding his body... Somehow he is able to mask his power unusually well in that respect...
Ichigo: So is he dangerous, or what?
Rukia: (pensively) I'm not sure... He hasn't shown any signs that he plans to pose a threat to anyone...
Uryu: Nonetheless, we should definitely keep an eye on him...
As promised, Ichigo met Orhime at the front gates after school. As they walked she talked about various things. Ichigo tried to keep up, but just when he was getting into whatever she she was going on about, she'd change the subject. Finally, he gave up.
They passed the old canning factory on their home. Orhime pointed it out as they approached. Suddenly, she paused mid-sentence. Her face went blank, her brown eyes staring straight foward.
Ichigo: (concerned) Orhime?
Following her gaze down the sidewalk, Ichigo spotted a figure steadily approaching. He squinted hard, but couldn't make out any details.
Ichigo: (to himself) Who-?
Suddenly, the figure vanished. A gentle breeze swept between Ichigo and Orhime, flutting their hair.
: Nice day for a walk, wouldn't you say...?
Ichigo's eyes widdened in shock. Quickly, he spun around, coming face to face with a pair of cold, blue eyes.
Ichigo: (thinking) What the hell...! How did he-!
: Ichigo Kurosaki?
Ichigo: (shaking) How do you know my-!
: You're quite famous, actually. I'm truly honored to meet you... (brushing back a few strands of blue hair with his hand) Koga Shuuhamaru, at your service...
