Once upon a time ... ..
"There lived a beautiful warrior. This graceful girl grew up in poverty and suffered many a hardship. She struggled to survive in the cruel world alone,cold and hungry. Along the way she made friends but as the years past the cruel world took them one by one until only she and one other remained. Even when she was found by a graceful, kind and noble man who was on his a mission to find her, his honored wife's long lost precious baby sister her hardship continued."
"Are you kidding me" Ichigo mumbled under his breath giving her an incredulous look.
Rukia turned to glare at the orange headed buffoon "Do you have a problem with my story Ichigo?"
When he didn't respond Rukia turned back and continued.
"The woman was shunned by her clan and her only friend turned his back on her. She finally had family and something to tie her beloved she found herself lonely and sad. So she trained to become a strong warrior her brother and clan would be proud of. In doing so the girl found a new friend in man that would would mark her life and heart for the rest of her life."
The look in her eyes turned thoughtful as if remembering memories from long ago.
"It was a cold dark night when she lost him. The girl was not strong enough and so she lost her precious friend that day. The events of that night would follow her many years. But life moves on and so did the girl."
"So one day the girl was assigned a new mission. A ordinary mission like many before except this mission would be unlike any before. This mission would be the beginning of her new life. A life where she would find true happiness. There would still be much hardship but it would all be worth it"
"That was the day she met a foolish boy. A foolish boy that would be responsible for giving the girl her new happy life. Together with the boy, the girl grew stronger. They went on many adventures, made many new friends and defeated countless enemies but the time came when they had to part."
She turned and gave Ichigo a tender smile before continuing on.
"They both knew that no matter the distance or time they were apart it would not matter they were bond to each other. So they parted and waited until they could once again be reunited."
"After seventeen long months they finally found each other again but a war soon threatened the peaceful life they had fought so hard for. They boy and the girl fought together against the evil. Many friend were lost and so much pain was felt by all. Many times it seemed all was lost but the girl now a woman believed with all her heart that the boy now a man could defeat the evil and bring peace once again. And so with his friends behind him the man defeated the evil"
"Once the evil was defeated and all was well again the man had to made very difficult decision. He had to decide if he wanted to stay with family and live a normal life or move away and live a life of a warrior alongside the woman."
A tender look overtook both their faces.
"The man chose the life of warrior even though the woman feared he would regret it. The man assured her that those seventeen months apart and powerless to protect those he loved proved to him this was the life truly wanted."
"And so the beautiful warrior found her true happiness with the foolish boy that changed her End."
"Out like a light" Ichigo said quietly as he looked down at their sleeping son." Though I don't think he understood a word you said"
"He's asleep isn't he" Rukia huffed leaning into his side as he wrapped an arm around her.
"Hey" Ichigo lay his head atop hers "the foolish boy found his true happiness with the short stubborn beautiful warrior that forever changed his life and stopped the rain that dulled his life for so long, too"
"Geez Ichigo could you be any cheesier" Rukia teased
"Yeah yeah now shut up" he met her lips with a smile in his in gentle kiss. "Let's go to bed"
Rukia hummed in agreement.
