Beautiful Beast

2 years later


So first of all BLEACH characters do NOT belong to me.

Second of all, as you know the story sounds like the Beauty and the Beast. The reason is because when I was getting ideas together, I was watching Beauty and the Beast. Funny but yes, though the beast and something enchanted about them is similar. I don't think I will follow the storyline for Beauty and the Beast, it is obvious what happens, its too cliche. The reason why Daston has that name is because I needed a name for the annoying pursuer but could not find any good name so in the end I tweaked it from Gaston(or something like that). BTW this story WILL NOT be like Beauty and the Beast! Definetely not!

This leads to me why I have posted chapter 3 with the part from chapter two. I have fixed and added more so there is more details and such. Plus I think it cleans it up nicely. I am liking this one much more than the previous one I did. So when I get the time, I think I am going to replace it with an author's note saying go to the next chapter...

Lastly I will keep this T rated but for those who want the M rated, I will post it separately, as if it is a epilogue! I'm kind of excited to write it. It will be quite fun, since I haven't written any M in a LONG time! Ah, a prince and Karin! eek! How amusingly exciting!

now back to the story...sorry if you thought it started here...it starts after this line that is below this sentence... :)

This chapter is short but the next will hopefully be longer.


"Who are you?" the brash man cracked his knuckles, trying to show dominance. He was trying to show his status to his opponent, of course he was failing at it.

"Are you kidding Do you really think a dimwit like you can come into our family?"

"Don't provoke him." The girl said with a soft voice, it was gentle and alluring. One could see why the brute of a man was pursuing her.

But, there was a protector, or a guardian and this guardian was strong. "Its fine, I'm here. You'll die before your wedding. Heh, you won't be able to survive the proposal nonetheless."

"You bastard, what did you say?" he screamed. "I'll kill you!" he rushed over running, aiming his punch at his opponent, who still stood relaxed.

The punch touched but his face ended up in the floor while his pudgy arm was twisted awkwardly. The other arm waved frantically, and then in the midst of things he had hit the head of his opponent and accidently pulled at the soft red fabric holding his opponent's hair. This was probably not the best idea.

Then all was still as the red fabric fell to expose the black, obsidian hair. It was silky and smooth more beautiful, which passed the sister's own beauty, against the pale skin, and it was very long. The face was hidden because of the hair and the fact that he had hit the black-haired person's head. His teeth were grinding, he was afraid, yes, the aura this girl had was threateningly frightening.

The brawny man stared at the scene. He watched as the face was lifted up to reveal a pair of gorgeous gray eyes. Then the face he saw was not the face of a young man but a girl. Though beautiful, the girl was beyond his control, he could teel just by the glare she held.

Yes, she was pissed, angry. Her sister could tell, the way she slowly stood up breathing deeply, in and out. The girl loosened the first button of her shirt to release her scarf. She tossed it to her younger sister. It floated down to her younger sister, softly and gently. "Ah, Karin no, don't do it!" Yuzu pleaded.

"No, Yuzu, you know my rules." Karin glanced back her sister and gave her a smirk, one almost identical to her brother's grin. "Besides, it won't take too long. Ichigo would never know." She took a step back and turned swiftly to give him the famous Kurosaki kick, by the way though this is not relevant Yuzu also knows how to do this kick.

So, the man flew, quite far. Actually across the walkway unto a cart of apples.

"Karin…" She froze and hesitated to turn around. "You promised me that you would not make trouble." It was Ichigo...her sweet, ruler of the family, brother.

"He started it!"She slowly bent down to retrieve the scarlet handkerchief from the mud and tried to clean it the best she can. "He ruined mother's memento and tried to dirty Yuzu."

"In that case, you should have come to me. I would have done it for you!" her brother still held a disappointed face despite the fact that she had a legit reason.

Yuzu intervened before the red bruise will go purple. "Brother! I'm fine. Let's go home! Karin come on!" She pulled at them away from the dirt street. "You will have a mark on your skin now...you should not have taken his hit, you could have moved. He wasn't even that fast."


"Duston, what are you staring at?" a short pudgy man asked the man, possibly twice his size, well in height.

"Gerry, who do you think I have my eyes set on?"

"The pretty one of course, Yuzu!" He sparkled his eyes at the calm girl tugging at her siblings.

"No you dumb-head! She isn't special enough." He scoffed. "Sure she is gorgeous but Karin is the best. Don't compare her to that weakling."

"What is it that you are scheming?"

"Scheming? Oh no, it is called planning. Think Duston and Karin, I don't need a weakling and Karin is just perfect! She is beautiful, strong and talented. Do I not deserve her?"

"No you deserve only the best! Food, life, girls, only the best, look at you! You are Duston Gafford, the one who has a face of an angel! You are brave, wild and a man that men admire! They want to be YOU!" He waved frantically. "You are Daston, the man women want to bed!"

"Yeah...go on"

"Sooner or later, the girl of your choice will be yours..."


"Karin, you promised me you wouldn't." Ichigo reprimanded his sister as he opened the door for his sisters.

"I know." Karin walked in. "It isn't like I wanted to fight. It never goes as I planned!" They were arguing, though it was small it was loud. And Yuzu...she just watched the two, chuckling at her two siblings. It was loud but it was life. They loved each other and this was how they showed it.

The Kurosaki's weren't quiet or normal. They were distinguished...and famous. It could have been the almost godly body and charisma they each had or the out of norm personality each Kusosaki had. To others, insecret, their beauty was inhumane. When they had first arrived, they were shocked of the gentle beast Ichigo was and his sculptic face with his amazin, as the women put it, chiseled body. Then there was Yuzu, the youngest of the siblings, who with her soft features and angelic face deemed her the title: "Madonna of Rune". Lastly there was Karin. She was a force by herself. She was known as the "Black Rose". She was the one with the deep, obsidian hair and skin so pale it was almost transculent. Added to her her beauty of the soft gray eyes that entrapped anyone who gazed into her eyes. Despite Karin's belief and cruel attitude, men wanted to die for her, her affections and beauty, which again was too godly for them. So, what they did was watch them and eyeing them. To the people Rune, the family who lived on the outskirts of the city was heavenly, their treasure but what they did not know about the Kurosaki family was the thing that kept them alive and sane

So this was the beginning of a story. A story so interwined with love-unrequitted or not-so true with a spell and a regal beast and ignorance of men.
