My head hung low; So many questions were flying through my head that I didn't notice that I had answered. "Yes" I was surprised at myself, I felt lost, like I didn't belong. Everything had just gone quiet. I glanced to Yoruichi to see that she was glaring at something behind me.
"Well it seems that you stumbled upon something that you weren't ever supposed to see Sam," an all too familiar voice spat.
My eyes widened and I slowly turned my head around. My breath almost hitched in my throat.
"Mom? Dad?" I didn't even recognize them, they looked the same but… they weren't the same happy, loving couple I knew. Those people in front of me were not the people I had known my entire life. They were strangers. Stacey Maydel, was still short and thin with her curly brown hair. Her eyes though, instead of the warm hazel, were crazed and furious. Robert was still tall, lean with his slicked, black hair. His body was rigid as if he was holding himself back.
"Ugh! How long are you going to call us that?" The woman came forward. This wasn't my mother; my mom was kind and never yelled at me. "I would never have a child like you. You aren't even human!" That stung more than anything. These people were bad, that's all I could figure.
"W-what's going on!?" I stammered. This was too much for me, first a talking cat, then my parents act like psyco's. I had never been so terrified in my life. My questions went unanswered as my supposed father and Yoruichi stared off.
"SHUT UP!" the horrible witch screeched. I could see something shining in her hand. I looked at the object in her hand with horror. My body began to tremble and I could feel sweat begin to form. Tightly held in her right hand was a large butcher knife. She looked at me then smirked.
"Oh this?" she held it up higher. "Don't worry, I'll make it as painful as possible." She took one step forward but was stopped by her partner. He gave her one heated glare and she coward back.
"How did you find her?" unlike his companion he had no emotion at all. While she was quick to anger he kept it well bottled. In his eyes though held so much hate and malice, which was impossible to hide. They didn't even give me a sideways glance.
The feline was unwavering."I have always been with her," Her eyes were no longer her signature gold; they had shifted to the most violent blood red. Her voice had begun to change as well. It had morphed into a woman's tone. Something inside of me stirred and I could feel power coming into my body. His eyes widened and his rage came loose.
"You!" he hissed. The witch saw this as her chance and lunged forward, knife held high.
"I'll kill you both!"
It all happened so quickly; I wasn't fast enough to get out of the way. My right arm burned, the pain was so bad I had no words to describe. My vision blurred for a second, the next second I saw Yoruichi in front of me, hackles raised. The woman was on the floor clutching her shoulder, the knife at her partner's feet. The man had moved away from the scene, but something had happened. He had a crazed look in his eyes and was no longer staring off with the cat. He was dead set on my right arm. I turned my head to see that a deep cut had been made. Blood was all over; I raised my left hand and hissed as it made contact. I looked up abruptly to here laughter, crazed and disturbing. His head rolled back as he continued laughing.
"Well, we were ordered to keep you ignorant and unharmed, but things don't always turn out the way you want." He knelt down and took hold of the discarded weapon.
"I'm going to hell anyways so..." he started towards me. "I'll take you with me princess!"
My mind was blank and my body felt numb. I looked at him seeing my father's face, but a mad man on the inside. I raised my arms to protect myself, not really feeling the reaction. My hands were raise and I could feel something build up.
"NOOO!"I screamed in defiance. Whatever power had been there had transferred out of my body. I heard a scream and opened my eyes, knowing that it wasn't me. I saw him on the ground writhing in agony. His clothes were severely burned as well as his arms and the left side of his head. Around him the carpet had a few flames and embers. I didn't wait to see what had made the flames, and got up as fast as I could, cringing at the pain going through my arm.
'Get the box!' A voice went through my head. I whipped around seeing nothing but the two aggressors on the floor. I glanced once again doing what the voice said. The box was discarded on the other side of the room. I looked again seeing that they weren't getting up anytime soon and sprinted as fast as I could to the box. As soon as I touched it with my bloodied hand the container clicked. Again didn't care what it was; I wanted out as fast as possible. As soon as I was about to be out of that room, a hand wrapped around my ankle. I fell forward and landed hard on the ground.
"Don't think you can get away that easily!" she shouted. The witch was holding onto my leg with a grip like iron.
'Open the box! Now!' The voice yelled frantically. I flipped it open and grabbed the contents.
I felt the air leave my body and the feeling of falling over took me. I shut my eyes tight and screamed for dear life, but heard no sound. It felt like there was no end until the sensation of hitting cold water came over me. Then suddenly I felt fine; as if I was drifting peacefully.
'Oh dear god, am I dead?' I slowly cracked open an eye and was dazzled by white.
'Well didn't think that was how I was going to go,' I mentally laughed at myself. After a moment of just floating I started to feel uneasy. 'Is this what happens when you die? You just float around in nothingness?' something made me think otherwise.
'Something doesn't feel right.' I scanned the area and peered into the distance. Far off there was a tiny red light, so small I had to squint to see it. A second later it started getting bigger and brighter. It was really coming closer until it stopped a foot away from me. It was a small flame about the size of my hand. It was the most vivid fire red I had ever seen, but that was the only color no orange, yellow, just red.
'What the hell, I'm dead anyway,' I reached out to touch it. My fingers were an inch away when I heard a light chuckle. I spun around trying to find the source but was met with empty space. I went to turn back to the flame but instead, I was met with equally vibrant eyes. She sat with her tail flicking back and forth just watching my movements.
"Y-Yoruichi?" I stuttered. She shook her head no and chuckled again. I watched her, confused as heck. "I don't understand…"
"As I recall I said that you 'know' who I am. I never said I was 'Yoruichi'." She cut me off. She had a signature Cheshire cat grin on her face, pointy teeth and all. "How's the arm?" she asked playfully.
I looked to see that it was completely healed, no trace of injury or blood. I moved it and was suprised that I was gripping something in my hand. I hadn't even felt it! I brought it closer to my face to see that it was a necklace. There was only one decoration on the chain. There was a large pearl-like blue jewel hanging on it. I recognized it before I had come here, this is what I had grabbed from the box.
'Did this send me here? 'I asked myself.
"Ah yes, that is what brought you here." she replied. "It also changed you back to your old self," she smiled. "Have a look." With a wave of her paw a mirror appeared and the sight before me made me gasp.
'Oh my god…is that…me?' I had completely transformed. My hair had grown; it was now strait and waist length. Not only that, it was blue! Sky blue! I hadn't grown from what I could tell; still average height. My eyes had changes as well they weren't the same brown I had seen my whole life. They had been turned blue as well; a few shades darker than my hair. All in all I looked…pretty. That didn't stop me from being furious at the situation I was in.
"Where exactly is 'here'? Why do I look like this?" I spat. I've had enough guessing games now. "Tell me everything. Now!"
Her body became stiff and her eyes had narrowed, she could tell I was serious.
"You are between dimensions" she said curtly. She paused in thought before continuing. "I can't tell you everything that would cause a lot of problems."
Starting to feel more like myself, I got very annoyed. I didn't want to be in this stupid white place anymore. I wanted out.
I glared at her. "Can I leave." It wasn't a question.
She perked up at this."Yes you can. In fact you can go anywhere now." She answered happily. God she was seriously bipolar. "Just say the word and you'll be there." I shifted my gaze downward.
'Anywhere?' I thought. 'Well I'm not going back to my world,' I laughed mentally. That was one place I never wanted to see again. Then something occurred to me.
"What is the point in going anywhere I want, if things turn badly?" I asked her. "Why would I do that if I won't belong there?" I could see she was surprised, I'm sure she thought I would jump at the chance to go anywhere I wanted. One thing stuck to me though, belong. That was it! I wanted to go someplace that felt like I was supposed to be there.
"I want to be where I belong." I was sure of myself. That was the only thing I wanted now.
Her grin grew tenfold; you could see the eagerness in her eyes.
"You haven't changed at all…" she laughed. "Well then let's get going!" she shouted.
Everything began spinning and the feeling of falling came back. The brilliant white faded and became gray, then black.
I woke up feeling dazed, not really knowing what was going on.
'Was it all a dream?' I looked around not recognizing anything. I was in a large room, on a bed more specifically. There was a window a foot away, a night stand with a lamp, a desk, and dresser. no this was most certainly not a dream. I was starting to panic when the voice came back.
'It's okay, you're where you belong now.' She said in a motherly voice. I never really stopped to actually think about who this voice in my head is. Now that it seemed like I was out of danger I felt curious.
"Who are you? What is your name? Where am I?" the questions just spilled forward. I couldn't stop myself; so much has happened in so little time. She didn't speak for a while.
'You still can't hear it, no matter how many times I tell you.' She sighed 'You'll have to wait for my name…"she sounded so sad and distant. This did not last for long. She quickly changed from gloomy to cheerful. "As for your location." She said excitedly
'This chick is so bipolar.' I rolled my eyes.
'Heard that.' She exclaimed.
'Yes, yes just tell me where I am already!' I huffed. I could hear her snicker at my impatience.
'Sam Maydel, welcome to Karakura town, Japan. More specifically the Bleach universe.' My jaw dropped and my eyes went as big as plates.
"The Karakura town?" I whispered
'Yup!' she laughed
I got out of the bed and walked up to the window, seeing what I had only ever observed from a T.V. I recognized the buildings and I could read the signs that were lit up. I was completely awestruck.
"No way…"
Sorry it was so long, but you know had to get her where she needed to be and all that. Heh, heh. Ok so please review I want to know what you all think!
