Me: okay well here is chapter 4. In this chapter, I will explain about the flower and the moon. I hope that you understand it.
Toushirou: ok well Karin is…uh…somewhere else at the moment and she wanted to do the disclaimers but i will just do it and she can do it next chapter. Winter does not in any way own Bleach. Although I wish she does because I get to hang out with Karin more often than in the actual show…oh well…
Me: thanks Toushirou and i just wanted to say thanks to all of those who review. It really encourages me to continue writing. I want to say a special thanks to amirasyaz for the support. Before I started writing this story and I read in other people's stories, it said "please review" or something like that, and I thought that it wasn't really important. But now I can really relate and say that one review really truly does encourage me to keep on writing. I am now looking at my email like ever second of the day (not literally) hoping that I got an email saying that I got a review. But it really does help. Ok im done…and I hope that you like this chapter!
The Flower and the Moon
Karin awoke to a loud yell by her father. "GOOD MORING MY SON!" her father screamed.
Karin moaned and turned in her bed reaching for her pillow to cover her ears with, but when she grabbed it, something was holding it down. Karin looked and saw that it was her boyfriend. Karin looked upon his face and smiled at how cute he looked when he was asleep. Then Karin took a look at the clock and saw that it was 5:45 in the MORNING! Karin frowned and laid back down, but when she knew that she wouldn't be able to go back to sleep, she quietly got up from her bed to kick some since into her father.
"YOU MORON! WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING YELLING AT FREAKING 5:45 IN THE DANG MORNING?" asked an extremely pissed off Karin.
"I…I…was just waking Ichigo up…and-" her father stammered. Karin rolled her eyes and hit her father straight in between the eyes and he flew against the wall. Yuzu had awoken from all of the screaming and shouting and came in time to see Karin land the punch.
"You know Karin, you really shouldn't do that. Someone could get hurt." Karin only rolled her eyes again.
"Yeah okay Yuzu, whatever you say. I'm gonna go and…uh…take a really long walk, so don't wait up." Karin said.
"But aren't you going to go to school?" Yuzu asked. Karin just shook her head and started to walk to the door. A hand landed on her shoulder and someone spoke.
"And why is that, Karin?" Karin turned to face the person. "Because Ich-nii. I have…uh…better stuff to do today." And with that Karin walked out of the room, forgetting about the sleeping captain up in her room.
When Toushirou woke up, he sensed that Karin had gotten out of bed a long time ago. Toushirou sighed and looked at the clock. The clock displayed 9:55am. Toushirou sat up and thought about what he was going to do. Watch and protect Karin was his first thought.
But then again, she did beat me… Toushirou thought.
Yes and I can't believe that you lost that fight, boy! Hyourinmaru said.
Well I accidently let my guard down and it was over before I could even recognize what had happened. Toushirou said.
Yes and that is what is going to get you killed one day…and I can't believe that she of all creatures beat me… Hyourinmaru added as an afterthought and Toushirou knew that he didn't mean Karin…but who?
Are you all right Hyourinmaru? You seem a bit…distant. Toushirou asked.
Don't worry about me boy, let's start training now. I still can't believe that we got completely beat by them…and they didn't even have a sword! Hyourinmaru growled. Toushirou nodded and then spoke.
Well I understand what you are saying but can I ask you one favor before we start training? Toushirou asked. The dragon hesitated then nodded, knowing exactly what went through his mind.
Good, then will you help me? Toushirou asked. Silence followed the question, then after a few minutes came the answer.
Yes. I will help you. The dragon finally replied.
~WAITY?~
Faster! You need to improve your speed just a little bit more. Kaze Ryuu said to Karin. Karin just nodded and did what she was told.
Very good Karin. You are improving greatly. Kaze Ryuu praised.
We will stop now and tomorrow you will go to school because people will start to become suspicious if you start skipping school. Karin sighed and then nodded.
Ok now it's time for us to go home. Karin smiled at the thought of sleeping in her own bed and seeing Toushirou again.
"Urahara, we are leaving now! We'll see you soon. Bye!" Karin yelled over her shoulder and walked out of the store not bothering to hear if she got an answer or not.
As Karin was walking down the street towards her home, she sensed another presence following her. What do you want me to do Kaze Ryuu? Do you want me to confront the person or keep walking? Karin asked.
I think that you should confront the person because I believe that he has something important to tell you. The dragon said. Really? Okay. Karin said.
Karin turned around and yelled in the general direction of the person. "I know you're there. Show yourself!"
"Geez Karin. You don't have to yell that loudly." Karin released a sigh of relief; it was just Toushirou. Karin saw him smirking at her from a tree above her head and he jumped down and landed silently beside her.
"How are you doing…Shiro?" Karin asked. Toushirou looked stunned at that nickname but didn't argue, but started to blush instead.
"Aw! What are you blushing about?" Karin joked and leaned down and kissed him. When she drew back, Toushirou was even redder than he was before. Karin smiled and then reached down to grab his hand.
"Um…Karin?" Toushirou said.
"Yes?" Karin answered.
"Uh…let's go for a walk. I want to discuss something with you."
"Okay but I need to tell my family that I will be late for dinner." Karin said.
"I already told them." Toushirou said.
"Oh. Okay then let's go."
~WAITY?~
Toushirou took Karin to the place where Karin had first asked him to play soccer with him three years ago. By the time they got there, the sunset was at its peak. It was a beautiful sight to see. When Toushirou turned to ask Karin what she thought of the sunset, he noticed how beautiful the last of the sunrays looked on Karin and couldn't contain himself. He all but through himself on Karin; kissing her as lovingly as possible. Karin smiled in the kiss and put one of her arms around his neck and put the other one in his hair and stared to run her hand through it. Toushirou moaned as Karin started messing with his hair. Toushirou withdrew his lips from Karin's and just stared at her.
"Hey. Are you okay, Toushirou?" Karin asked. Toushirou nodded and then made a motion for Karin to stand up and move towards the railing. Karin and Toushirou walked over and then sat down on the railing, looking at the moon.
"You know, it's really a beautiful sight to see." Karin said.
"What is?" Toushirou asked.
"The moon." Karin replied.
Toushirou nodded and then took a few breaths to calm his nerves.
"I agree but I know something that is even more beautiful that that…"
"And what would that be?" Karin questioned. Toushirou turned and looked at Karin.
"You…" he whispered.
Karin started to blush and turn away, but Toushirou put his index finger on her chin and made her face him. It happened so fast, they didn't even how it happened. Toushirou was kissing Karin and had no intention of letting her go anytime soon.
After about an hour or so, Karin was as happy as could be and Toushirou decided that it was the perfect time to do what he originally planed to do.
"Karin," Toushirou whispered. Karin turned to face him as he stood up. "I have already spoken with your family about this, mainly your father and brother, and they both agree that this is your life and you should be able to make the decision. I…I am going to be returning to Soul Society soon and was wondering if you wanted to come with me. It is very rare for a human who has not died, to awaken her zanpaktou so I think that the Head Captain (this is what I call Yamamoto) would agree to allow you to come to Soul Society…I mean…if you want to and all." Toushirou finished and stole a look at Karin. What he found shocked him. He expected to see her thinking about it, but what he found was fierce determination, as if she didn't even have to ask twice.
"Yes Toushirou. I will come with you." Toushirou smiled and then hesitated.
"Okay well I got you somethin'." Karin looked shocked.
"Why?" Toushirou smirked and leaned in and kissed her neck. She moaned and his smirk got bigger.
"Because…it is now your birthday, Karin." Toushirou said and kissed her neck again, then made his way up to her lips. When they finally broke apart, Karin was grinning.
"Oh yeah…I kinda forgot." Toushirou couldn't contain the smile that sprung upon his face.
"Karin. I want to give you a birthday present." Karin turned and looked at Toushirou. In his hands was a small box with a light blue bow on top. Karin took the box and removed the bow, then opened the box.
What Karin saw inside the box made her heart melt. It was a rose, but not just any kind of rose. This one was an icy blue color.
"You should thank Hyourinmaru mostly for that. He helped me make it. That rose is made from Hyourinmaru's ice, and it's not like any other kind of ice. If I am ever in battle, the rose will start to glow and when I become injured, the rose will start to crack, and obviously when I'm healed, the ice will go back to normal. One last thing. If I'm ever away from you, that rose can call out to Hyourinmaru and me. Think of it like…a…communicator." Toushirou said and looked at Karin. Karin looked at Toushirou straight in the eyes and spoke.
"Thank you both…for everything…"
Toushirou's eyes got wide as he noticed that Karin looked like she was on the verge of tears. He understood that she was touched by this gift.
"Do you understand the significance to this gift? Do you know what the rose stands for?" Toushirou asked.
"Yes…your love…" and Karin let one single tear fall.
~WAITY?~
Me: ok well that is the end of this chapter. I hoped that you liked it.
Toushirou: ya but why is Hyourinmaru acting so weird?
Me…um…you will find out soon…
Toushirou: …why?
Me: just because I don't want to talk about it and by the way, the next chapter will start of in Karin's POV but then is will be in someone else's opinion. Let's see if you can guess who it is. This story is going to take an interesting turn and I hope that u guys can keep up…
Karin: AWWW! I loved my gift.
Me: I thought you might and it will come in handy later on in the story. (Yet another hint…geez what is with me and hints?) lol PLZ REVIEW and some ideas wouldn't hurt ether cuz im running out of them…ok until the next chapter! ^.^
