THIS IS NOT EPISODE 7! Episode 7 is an interview with Byakuya, Nel and Yachiru...what too soon?
Anty: -with a microphone- This is a mere thought and a serious story. Now, someone requested me to make a story on what happens if Araki disappears. So, I decided to make a HitsuAra. It was a request. -Hides behind Araki to avoid hurdling Rocks- anyway, -gets out from behind Araki- It was for sake boredom, Plus, I think it would be really fun to make something sad. This is what I think happens when an OC is forgotten by their master.
Sayonara, Araki
Araki sat in the office and signed the usual paperwork with a frown on her face. One hand on the brush and one hand curling her hair. Soon, she looked at her hand and saw it starting to fade. She stared at it horrifically and silent tears came down her eyes. "Anty-Chan..." She mumbled under her breath. Soon, the front door bursted open only to reveal Hitsugaya with paper work. Araki quickly wiped off her tears and silently signed the papers. "Araki, have you see Matsumoto?" He asked. looked up "N-No! Sorry." and continued to sign the papers with a worried look on her face. She placed her left arm as support for her head and the right had continued to sign. She started coughing. "This is not good..." she said. "Hm?" Hitsugaya asked as he signed his paper work. "Did you say something?" he continued. "N-n-nothing! I'm going out for fresh air!" Araki quickly said with the best smile she could muster. Once she left the office, she poked her head inside to look at him. "I'll be back soon..." she said with a fake smile. "I hope..." she said as the smile left her face. She quickly closed the door behind her. She looked down at the ground with her back against the door. "Ah Araki!" A voice called out to her. Araki looked to her right to find Rangiku with a pile of paperwork in her hands. "Is captain in there?" Rangiku asked. Araki nodded. "Good! We brought him some candy!" A voice came from behind Rangiku. Hinamori came from behind her with assorted candies in her hands. "What are you doing outside?" Rangiku asked. "I was going to get some fresh air." Araki said as she hastily walked past the two. Araki had an upset look in her face. Behind her, the two wondered what happened to Araki. As Araki was walking through Sereitei, a certain vice captain snuck up behind her. "PIGTAILS-CHAN!" The voice called as the speaker hanged on Araki's back. "Kusajishi-Fukutaicho!(I might've got the name wrong...)" Araki said surprised. "Eh? What's wrong Pigtails-chan?" Yachiru asked. "What do you mean?" Araki said with a fake smile. "You know me, sometimes I want to be alone to think." She said laughing slightly. "Anyway, isn't Zaraki-Taicho supposed to be with you?" she finished. "Uh, I kind've lost him." Yachiru said. "Well, I'll tell him you were looking for him. I'll be on my way." Araki said as she waved good bye to Yachiru. "Why does she seem, different...?" Yachiru said worriedly as she watched Araki leave. "Pigtails-chan..." Araki finally reached her so-called 'thinking place'. It was just a small hill outside Sereitei. It had a single cherry blossom tree that was separated from everything else. Araki crouched down and sat on the grass. She knows her uniform will get dirty, but she didn't care. The calm breeze soothed her as she look at Sereitei. She again looked at her hand and saw it slowly becoming transparent. "Anty-chan...why...?" she said as she buried her head in her knees. Soon, she was ready to go back to Sereitei for the night. She dusted the grass ff her uniform as she made her way to the tenth squad chambers. She met along the way Rangiku with a sake bottle in her hand. "Hi Araki" she greeted with a smile. "Sober or drunk?" Araki said with a smirk. "Don't worry, I'm still sober. I haven't drank yet." Rangiku said as she laughed. "Ok. Well, I'm off to my bedroom. Good night, Rangiku-san." Araki said with a smile as she walked to her room. The smile faded and he quickly slipped in her bed. Araki pulled her blanket over her face. She tried her best to sleep. After a long attempt, she finally slept.
"Araki, Araki." A voice called as a hand shook Araki. "Wait..." Araki lazily and tried to go back to sleep. "ARAKI!" The voice shouted as Araki quickly sat up in shock. "HOLY SHIZ!" Araki exclaimed. She looks to her left to find a pissed Hitsugaya. "You overslept!" He exclaimed. Araki shook her head left to ride to get a straight vision. "Fix up." Hitsugaya said as he left Araki. "Uh..." Araki said as she tried to comprehend what happened. "Oh yeah I overslept!" She said as she jolted from her bed to fix herself. After a while she got to the office with a tired look on her face. She went to her desk and signed papers of God knows what. She had her left hand supporting her head and her right hand signing the papers. She looks over her ride hand and saw that she's slowly losing color. Hell, keeping a firm grip on the brush was already hard. "Is something wrong?" She heard someone say. She looked up to see Hitsugaya in front of her desk. "Oh nothing's wrong!" Araki said as she tried her best to muster a cheerful reaction. She felt his hand press her forehead. "Are you sure you' okay?" He asked. Araki just stood there with remarkably red cheeks. "I-I'm fine!" she said shakily. "Good to hear. If you need anything, tell me." Hitsugaya said as he walked back to his desk. Araki pressed her hands on her forehead to see if she had a fever or something. She pressed both her hands on her neck and felt it being a little hotter than usual. Her face shifted into a fearful expression, but then shifted back to a worried face. She signed her papers and wiped off the sweat from too much thinking about her situation at the moment. She felt the atmosphere around her get colder. She looked at her white haired captain and smiled. "Thank you..." she mumbled as she continued to sign her paperwork.
The night arrived early as Araki slowly walked to her room. She had a blanket wrapped around her and she wore her sleeping clothes. She looked through her open window and sighed as the rain started to pour. She looked at both of her hands and they were barely visible. "No..." She mumbled as she broke into a silent cry. He heard a knock in the door. "Araki..." she heard a voice call. She looked behind to find Rangiku with a worried expression. Araki quickly wiped off her tears and put on a fake smile. "Yes?" She said. "What's wrong?" Rangiku asked. "Nothing!" Araki said with a smile. "Admit it, what's wrong?" Rangiku asked. Before Araki could think of anything to respond, Rangiku took her by the hand. "Araki! What's wrong?"Rangiku said. Araki slowly shook her head as silent tears came coming down her cheeks. Rangiku looked at Araki's hands and saw Araki's hands barely visible. "What the-!?" Rangiku exclaimed. "What happened?!" Rangiku asked. "Rangiku...san..." Araki slowly said as the tears come trembling down. "I'm...going...to...disappear...forever..." she said. "Why!?" Rangiku said in disbelief. Araki slowly shrugged and looked down. "Rangiku-san...can you..please leave? I want...to sleep...please." Araki said with all the voice she has left. Without saying anything, Rangiku headed for the door. "Oh yeah, please don't tell anyone...even captain." Araki slowly. Rangiku nodded and left Araki. Quietly, Araki made it for her bed and silently slept for tonight.
The morning rays hit Araki as she made it up on the bed. She looked at the mirror only to find a frightening thing. She was already almost see through. She tried her best to gather herself and to make it for the day. She tied her brown hair into the usual pigtails and made her way to the office, where Rangiku and Hitsugaya sat doing their paperwork. Rangiku looked at Araki carefully as the girl made her way to her desk. Not so soon, Rangiku stood up to walk over to Araki. "Hey, are you okay?" She asked. Araki tried to smile with all her might "I am." came the lie from her mouth. "Are you sure?" Hitsugaya asked from his desk. "I am..." Araki lied again as she tried to sign her papers. Soon, the paintbrush fell right through her hands. She stared at her right hand in a horrified expression. "No..way..." Araki said. "Why? What's wrong Araki?" Hitsugaya asked standing up as Rangiku offered to touch Araki's forehead. Araki quickly stood up with tears in her eyes. "I have to go." She quickly said as she ran outside the office to her 'thinking place'. "wa-wait!" Rangiku followed. Hitsugaya ran after the vice captain as they followed Araki.
When Araki reached the hill, she thought she lost the two. She stood there and looked at her fading figure. She placed her hands over her face as she had a breakdown. "Araki, are you alright?" she heard Rangiku as she felt a hand rubbing her back. She turned around only to find her vice captain and Captain. She quickly stood up. Hitsugaya and Rangiku looked at her with a shocked expression. Araki put on a sad smile. "I'm sure you noticed it...I don't have much...time..." Araki slowly said between gasps. "In reality...I don't belong here...my creator...inserted me...into your lives..." She continued. "Now...my creator...forgot...about me...now...I'm nothing without her." she went on. The two couldn't believe what they're hearing. "My creator...no longer...remembers me...she has forgotten me..." She finished. "But-" Rangiku started. "Who's your creator!? How could she forget about you? What do you mean you were just inserted in our lives?" Hitsugaya asked. "It means if it wasn't for her, You wouldn't have met me." Araki said with a small smile. The clouds around them started to form as rain slowly dropped. "Thank you...both of you..." Araki said slowly. "But..I can't stay here anymore..." She finished. She looked at Rangiku. "Thank you Rangiku-San...you have been the best vice captain I could have ever had..." She said with a smile. Tears came down Rangiku's face as Araki started fading. "and..." Araki continued as she looked at Hitsugaya. "Thank you, Hitsugaya-Taicho." She said as she pulled him for a hug. "You have been a great Captain and Friend. I'm so happy you came into my life..." she said as only her torso is remaining visible. "Both of you...I wish you the best future." She said, not releasing Hitsugaya from the hug. "sayonara, Hitsugaya-Taicho, Rangiku-san..." She finished as she fully faded. Hitsugaya stood there with tears in his eyes as Rangiku fell to the ground crying. The rain poured as thunder could be heard. Soon, they heard a loud falling noise, only to reveal Akuma No Kaminari infront of them. Hitsugaya unsheathed the blade as the sword shattered into millions of glass shards. He stared at where the sword used to be, then finally said. "Sayonara, Araki."
-Fin!-
Anty: OW MY GUTS. well, that my friends, is what happens if I forget about Araki. Pretty sad in my opinion. I didn't like to make kiss scenes 'cause I think it isn't comfy. Well, anyway, stay tuned for episode 7! This is NOT an official episode, because it is serious.
