Chapter Two: High School Fate.
Rukia and Orihime were heading to lunch when one of their good friends, Momo Hinamori, called them. "Ruki-chan! Hime-chan!"
Rukia and Orihime both turned around to see their friend, who had tight-bun hair and big warm brown eyes, running towards them looking tired. Both of them smiled at her.
"Momo-chan," Hime gave her a hug, "How were you?"
"Good," Momo hugged her back.
"Hey, Momo," Rukia smirked. "Long time no see huh?"
Momo laughed. "Yeah, I wish I was in the same class as you guys." Momo frowned.
"It's okay, we always have our favorite time, LUNCH together!" Hime bounced up and down in excitement.
"Hime, you mean, your favorite time," Rukia and Momo laughed at their friend's silliness.
Orihime blushed and then frowned in embarrassment. "So? At least we can see our friends during that time."
Rukia smiled at her silly best friend. "Yeah, you're right."
Orihime grabbed Momo and Rukia's hands and started skipping to the lunch room.
"Hime!" Momo laughed stumbling.
Rukia flinched in pain as her stomach's nerves were touched. And it hurt like hell. Dammitt, this hurts like FUCK. Rukia grabbed her stomach with her free hand and tried her best not to get noticed her pain.
They arrived in the lunch room less then 2 minutes, thanks to Hime's skipping. But Rukia had to pay the price.
Rukia was coughing hard when they reached the lunch room. Hime and Momo surrounded her with panic in their eyes. "Ruki-chan!"
Orihime looked at Rukia, who's face was pale and full of pain with eyes covered in tears. "Rukia-chan! Are you alright? Momo-chan go get Ms. Unohana! Quick!"
Ruki suddenly grabbed Momo's hand, to keep her from going to the nurse. "I'm okay."
Hime was surprised by Rukia's reaction and tears started form up in her eyes. "Ruki-chan! Are you alright?"
Rukia smiled weakly at her and Momo. "Of course I'm alright. Don't worry, it was just a little cold. Nothing to be worried about."
Ulquiorra was watching them from the behind and he was frozen for a second when he thought that Rukia would be coughing blood. He was relieved when her face wasn't covered with blood. He sigh in relief. Thank Kami that she's alright. I wouldn't have known what I would do if she-
"Oi, Cifer," the deep voice called him from behind him.
Ulquiorra turned back to see his classmates Kaien Shiba, and Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck walking towards him with a grin in their faces. Ulquiorra didn't have close friends with him in the school, but those two were close enough friends for him. They were both senior, like himself. Kaien Shiba had black spiky hair smiliar to that Kurosaki boy, but longer, and had deep green eyes, different from Ulquiorra's glowing ones. And Nelliel- or Nel – had long wavy lime-green hair, and big shining gray eyes that were similar to Hime's.
Ulquiorra nodded at them with an blink expression on his face. "Hello."
"Hello? What the hell man?" Kaien raised an eyebrow and bumped Ulquiorra in the chest. "Let's go eat, we're hungry."
Nel rolled her eyes at her friend's stupid-ness. "You mean you're hungry, Kaien?"
Kaien gave Nel a stunning smile. "Yes," he turned back to Ulquiorra who was silent the whole time. "Let's go, and oh, look there's Kuchiki and the Inoue girl!" he pointed at the 3 girls who were smiling and laughing again, entering the lunch room.
The three of them entered the lunch room and it suddenly became silent, it was awkward. What the hell? Why did it became quiet? Rukia looked around to see if anything was weird, but nope, nothing seemed to be strange, except for the fact that everyone was looking at them. What the hell was going on? Rukia looked at Hime and Momo, who seemed shocked by it too. What-?
"Rukia," Ulquiorra's voice said behind them. "Are you ok-"
Then it happened, a bucket full of cold water splashed down her and her friends. It was freezing and both Hime and Momo cired in pain. Rukia stayed silent. An evil laughter came above them and Rukia looked up with burning hatred in her violet eyes.
Renji Abarai, and Shuhei Hisagi, from class 9, held the bucket and were laughing their asses off. And so was the whole lunch room. They were laughing at her and her friends, whispering stuff that was about them.
Rukia looked at her friends, Hime and Momo, they were both crying silently. Rukia's heart broke to see them in wet clothes, trying their best not to let their tears drop from their eyes, she also was in wet clothes and was trying her best not to let a single drop of tear come down from her eyes. But her anger got the best of her, she dropped her head down and the angry hot tears ran down her face.
She was ashamed. Ashamed by her own weakness, she clenched her hands into fists. Rukia got pissed. She looked up at the lunch room, where people were still laughing at her and her best friends. "IS THIS THAT HILARIOUS TO YOU PIECE OF –"
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SON OF A BITCHES LAUGHING ABOUT!" Ulquiorra suddenly shouted. It shocked all of them, even Rukia. Ulquiorra wasn't the type to yell and scream or cuss at anyone. Rukia looked at her cousin and saw pure anger and hatred in his glowing eyes, she felt scared. "IS IT THAT FUCKING FUNNY? TO WATCH SOMEONE GET SPLASH WITH COLD FUCKING WATER IN THIS WEATHER?"
"Ulquiorra," Kaien said behind him. "Dude, calm down."
Ulquiorra was fucking pissed off. How dare them to make fun of Rukia and Hime, if he could he would rip those son of bitches' heads off. Ulquiorra looked at him, his eyes glowing with hatred. "HOW CAN YOU BE SO FUCKING CLAM LIKE THAT SHIBA?-"
"Dude, you're scaring them off," Kaien pointed at Rukia, who was shaking with fear and Hime was crying, tears falling off her face looking at him in pure fear.
Ulquiorra blinked a few times, trying to clam himself down, everyone became quiet and Ulquiorra stepped to get Rukia, Hime and their friend, Momo, out of that fucked up lunch room and into warm clothes. "Rukia-"
"That serves you right, Kuchiki," in front of them were the Senna girl and her gang. And there were those two boys who held the bucket too.
Ulquiorra felt the urge to ripe their heads off again. "You-"
"Senna, you are such a bitch, you know that?" Rukia cut him off. "You didn't fucking have to get my friends too, you know. You are a sick dirty whore who needs a life, so just, FUCK OFF."
"Rukia," Hime cried, and tried to hold her hand.
Everyone in the lunch room were silent, looking at them.
"You were so life-less that you needed to get me and my friend for what? Getting to sit next to someone you can't have? That's fucking retarded, I'm sorry that Ms. Ochi had you sit next to Keigo, but that doesn't fucking mean you had to do this to me and my friends," Rukia frowned. Ichigo wasn't there, strange, wasn't he one of the popular ones? "If you wanted to fight me, then you could've just asked me with your own damn mouth, you retard."
Senna's mouth twitched. "If you haven't noticed, Kuchiki, Ichigo Kurosaki is my boyfriend. So this was a warning, for you or your servants not to get near my man."
"What the he-" Renji started.
"Shut up, Renji," Senna cut him off. "We'll talk later."
"What the hell?" Hime suddenly said, she had stoped crying. Rukia looked at her best friend, she looked different somehow. "You only did this because Ruki-chan was sitting next to Kurosaki-kun? Seriously, Senna, you are such a bad person. Even though I don't even believe the fact that Kurosaki-kun is dating you, he could do better then you."
Senna's orange eyes twitched and frowned. "Shut the fuck up, Inoue, you don't know what-"
"I have known Kurosaki-kun and Tatsuki-chan all my life," Orihime put her hands on her hips making it look sexy, even Rukia looked at her best friend with amazement. "I know more about Kurosaki-kun, than you ever will know, Senna. And I bet he will be VERY displeased when he hears about this."
Senna looked furious. "Whatever," she shouted and walked away with her gang.
Rukia looked at Hime. "Wow, Orihime, you- you were amazing!"
Hime looked back and gave Rukia a big hug. "Ruki-chan are you alright?"
"I'm alright," Rukia hugged her back and turned to Momo, who was dumbstruck by what just happened. "Momo-chan, are you alright?"
Momo blink and whipped water off her face. "Yes," she smiled. "We should get ourselves into warm clothes, Hime-chan, Ruki-chan."
"I'll help you guys," Nel stepped up and smiled at the 3 of them.
"Nel-san!" All three of them smiled at her, "How are you, senpai?" Rukia smiled at her, she would've gave her a hug, if she wasn't in wet clothes.
"Nel-san!" Hime laughed and tried to give her a hug, not realizing that she was in wet clothes.
"Hey, Ruki, Hime, and Momo," Nel laughed and hugged Hime, even though she got wet a little.
The four girls were laughing and was chatting girly stuff before Ulquiorra and Kaien even realized what was going on. "Girls…" Kaien mumbled.
"Oi, Ulquiorra, Kaien, I'm taking the girls to change, so go ahead and eat without us," Nel told them laughing.
"Ulquiorra," Rukia suddenly said.
"Yes?" Ulquiorra looked at her violet eyes.
"Thank you," Rukia smiled.
Ulquiorra wanted to smile back, but he just nodded. "Go and change, I can't afford to listen to Byakuya-sama if you catch a cold."
"I know," Rukia laughed and turned back to her friends. "Let's go."
The four girls went to the girl's locker room.
Ulquiorra and Kaien walked into the lunch room, they only had 20 minutes before the lunch ended, so they had to eat fast.
"You know, Cifer," Kaien started. "What is your relationship to Kuchiki?"
Ulquiorra stiffen by that question, he and Kaien were eating in their gang's usual table, not getting disturbed. "What do you mean?"
"I mean, what's with you two?" Kaien rolled his eyes, stuffing a meat ball into his mouth. "Are you two like, dating?"
Ulquiorra stared at his friend if he was crazy. "No," he frowned. "Of course not."
Senna and her gang, were talking and eating at their "popular only" table. But Senna was watching Ulquiorra and Kaien with curious eyes. That Kaien Shiba guy… he looks like Ichigo, maybe hotter. Senna smirked. And that Cifer guy, he's an interesting one…. It would be nice to have both of them by my side. Senna sighed.
"What's wrong Senna-chan?" Riruka Dokugamine suddenly asked. Riruka had magenta colored eyes, and long hair that was always tied into two pigtails. Senna had a feeling that Riruka had a thing for Ichigo, which made her angry and wanted to rip her hair off, but she was a good company to have around and she had an uncle who owned the 'Xcution Bar', the most famous bar in Karakura. And she need something like that.
"Oh, it's nothing," Senna looked away from the boys and into Riruka's magenta eyes.
Riruka looked over at the place Senna was looking at. She smiled, "That's UIquiorra Cifer and Kaien Shiba, both of them are seniors," Riruka gave them one last lustful looks before turning to see Senna. "And that Kaien one, he's just fffffiiiiiinnnnnneeeee~"
Senna stiffen by Riruka's comment. "Whatever, I don't care. I have Ichigo."
This time Riruka stiffen. Senna was saying that Ichigo Kurosaki was dating her, which was still pissing her off, but she didn't want to fight Senna when Ichigo could really be dating her. So she played innocent and nice, "Well yeah, Ichigo-kun is hot."
Senna glared at her.
"Oh yeah, by the mention of Ichigo, where is he?" Renji suddenly asked.
"Yeah, I haven't seen him since the morning," Hisagi said.
"He told me he was going to eat with his friends," Tatsuki suddenly said, and rolled her eyes. "His other friends."
Senna frowned, "Tatsuki, how do you know that?"
Tatsuki looked at Senna and sighed. "He's a close friend of mine and he told me, Senna."
Senna's frown deepen. "Why would he tell you something, when he didn't tell me?"
Renji rolled his eyes. "Senna, Tatsuki has known Ichigo since he was like what? 6?"
"But I'm his GIRLFRIEND!" Senna wined. "I'm his fucking girlfriend! Dammit!"
Renji, Tatsuki and all others rolled their eyes or sighed. Whatever you bitch, he wouldn't date a whore like you. Ichigo could do wwwaaayyy better then you creep. I feel bad for Kurosaki…. Was on people's minds.
"Shut up, Senna. You're so annoying," Toshiro Hitsugaya, the captain of the soccer club in Karakura High, said. He had turquoise eyes and white spiked hair, similar to wolverine. He was short, almost like an middle schooler, but despite his shortness, he was very good at soccer. He was short tempered, and had a cold personality, but when you got to know him, he wasn't that bad to be around.
Senna slammed her hands into the table, making people look at her. Her orange eyes were almost on fire, everyone shivered in fear. "Hitsugaya, know who you're talking to."
Toshiro scoffed, "Whatever." He was done with his ice cream and he stood up, leaving the table.
Senna sat back down, trying to clam herself down. Why was she feeling this way? Every day was like this, she eating with her gang, talking and laughing, but why was she feeling so uneasy today?
Senna calmed Ichigo as her's ever since Ichigo helped her from the river that day, and she never had any doubts about him not feeling the same way for her. Senna sighed and thought about her past.
Senna was 14 when she first met Ichigo Kurosaki. She was looking at the sunset next to the river she always went to when she was feeling sad or uneasy. That day was like the day she finally wanted to end her life. She was depressed and felt so hopeless. As the sun was setting Senna slowly tried to go into the river when someone caught her hand.
"What the hell are you doing?" A boy with hair like the setting sun, and a scowl on his handsome face asked looking into her orange eyes. She was crying, tears were dripping from her eyes.
"Let go of my hand!" Senna cried, trying to free herself from the boy. "Go away!"
The boy's eyes twitched and his hold got tighter. "No."
"Let me GO! Dammnit!" Senna tried to push herself away from him.
"I don't know why you are trying to kill yourself," the boy started. "But I think it will be a waste if you just killed yourself like that, you know."
"W-what do you mean?" Senna blinked.
"I mean it would be a waste if someone like you kill yourself," the boy looked at the sunset. "I don't want such a young soul like you or me, killing ourselves because we think life is being unfair. Life is unfair, you know."
That day, Senna returned home thinking about what the boy said to her. And the rest of the year, she didn't try to kill herself anymore. And when High school started, Senna met the boy and learned his name and became attached to him.
"Life is unfair, you know." That quote always stayed with her, and she never forgot about him.
Ichigo Kurosaki sat on the roof with his friends eating their lunch.
"Yo, Ichigo," his best friend, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, suddenly said, scratching his head. "Can you do me a favor?"
Ichigo raised one eyebrow, "What?"
Grimmjow looked at his best friend's amber eyes and frowned a bit. "Can you ask Nel-chan out for me?"
The whole gang were silent for a second. Ichigo started laughing.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA," Ichigo laughed so hard. "Nel-san? Are you serious?"
Grimmjow frowned and punched Ichigo in the stomach. "Hell yes, I'm serious."
Ichigo was still laughing even Grimmjow punched him. "Well, why are you asking me?"
Grimmjow rubbed his blue eyes, dust got into his eyes, and it was hurting his eyes. "Because, y-you know her more than I do and have more c-contact with her than me."
"Grimmjow… are you crying?" their friend, Ahido Kano suddenly asked.
"WHAT?" Ikkaku Madarame and his best friend, Yumichika Ayasegawa shouted in disbelief. "Grimmi can't cry! He has no soul!" Ikkaku shouted.
Ichigo and Grimmjow both hitted their bald headed friend. "I do fucking have a SOUL, you bastard!" Grimmjow shouted.
"Yeah, Grimm has a soul, that's why he wants to date Nel-san," Ichigo laughed. "Isn't that right, Grimm?"
"Whatever," Grimm looked away, which made Ichigo laugh more.
"Well Neliel is hot," Ashido said. Ashido was a senior like Nel and he had dark reddish hair, and deep brown eyes, and he was popular with the girls, but he didn't show any interests in them. One time someone spread a rumor saying that he was gay, that got him pissed off very badly. "But not my type."
Ichigo smirked. "Then what is your type?"
"Black hair, smaller boobs, and small in size, maybe?" Ashido said without any doubt. "How about you?"
Ichigo frowned thinking. "I don't kn-"
"WHY ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THIS?" Grimmjow interrupted. "I only asked Ichigo, ask Nel out for me, why are we talking about our 'type'?"
Ichigo and Ashido looked at each other for a minute and laughed. "Alright, I'll ask her. Sure, why not?" Ichigo nodded. "She is closer to me than you are."
"And your point Kurosaki?" Grimmjow growled at his friend.
"Ouch," Ichigo smiled. Suddenly he remembered something, oh crap. "Hey, guys, what time is it?"
Grimmjow scratched his light-blue head and then looked at the clock. "20 minutes before lunch is over, why?"
"Awww man," Ichigo got up, frown on his face. "Zangetsu made me go to his class to do some extra stuff for his class, cause I failed his class last semester. And I'm 10 minutes late already, I gotta go guys, see ya."
"Ichigo is a smart ass," Ashido said. "Only the top ten smartest kids in each grade gets to take Zangetsu's class."
"You're damn right, Ashido," Grimmjow agreed drinking his juice.
Ichigo left his friends and down the roof. He was going to get one hell a lot of crap from Zangetsu for being late. Well 10 minutes was kind of a long time. He sighed.
Rukia, Hime, Momo and Nel were getting changed into warm clothes in the Girl's locker room. Laughing and enjoying themselves as if everything that happened earlier was a dream. Rukia asked. "So Hime, I didn't know you knew that Ichigo guy."
Hime looked at Rukia who was taking her wet skirt off. "Hm?"
Rukia took her wet skirt off and set them on the set next to her. "The Ichigo guy, you called him 'Kurosaki-kun'."
"Oh," Hime stoped and looked at Rukia, she was wearing Chappy panties, it was so cute on her. She smiled. Your Chappy- Obsession will never end Ruki-chan. "I knew him because the day my brother, Sora, died, I was at Kurosaki Clinic. There I met Kurosaki-kun. I was 14? I think?"
"Oh," Rukia dropped her voice. Hime always got low- mood, if they ever talked about her brother, Sora. So she decided to drop the subject.
"But Ruki-chan," Orihime started putting on her sweatshirt after taking her wet blouse off. "How could you not know Kurosaki-kun?"
"What?" Momo and Nel both shouted. "Rukia! Are you serious?" Nel asked her little friend locking her hands above her chest. "How could you NOT know Ichigo-kun?"
"Yeah, Rukia," Momo agreed. "He's the most popular guy in Karakura High! He has like everything! The looks, the head, the money. EVERYTHING!"
Rukia looked dumbstruck at her friend. "So?"
"So?" Nel laughed. "Rukia, don't you feel anything for him?"
"Not really," Rukia said. Momo and Nel stared at her if she was crazy.
"Ruki-chan, Kurosaki-kun's father is one of the greatest doctors in the world!" Hime suddenly said. "Dr. Kurosaki? Doesn't it ring a bell to you?"
Rukia blinked a few times and then shook her head. "No…."
All three of them frowned. Isshin Kurosaki was one of the greatest doctors in the world. It was impossible that Rukia didn't know him. Especially when she was one of the great Kuchiki clan, and the Clan Lord's daughter.
Mother and Father never told me about these stuff, not that I minded. But I feel left out now. Rukia sighed. She putted on her sweat pants and was starting to take her blouse off when she felt the twist in her stomach again. No not here….! "Hey, I'm going to go to the bathroom… if I'm late, don't wait for me I'll probably take a…..long time…."
Rukia ran out of the locker room holding her stomach and mouth, it was hurting her so much, tears began to fall down from her eyes, she tried to wipe it away. Damn it never hurt this much! Tears began covering her eyes blurring her vision. She was wiping her eyes when she bumped into someone. "Dammitt!"
Rukia coughed and looked up to see the guy with orange hair. She frowned.
"Hey, look where you're going midget!" Ichigo shouted. "Damn it."
His amber eyes stared into her violet ones and then suddenly went down to see her wet blouse. Rukia's face turned bright pink. She wanted to tell him to fuck off, but then her coughing got too much out of hand.
She tried to run from him, she was still holding onto her stomach and mouth. But then he caught her wrist and pulled her to him. "Let- *cough*- me…. *cough*- GO!"
He frowned and held her hand tighter. "Are you okay, midget?"
Rukia kicked him in his shin, for calling her a midget. "Do-don't call me- *cough* a- *cough* MIDGET!"
"You….bitch," Ichigo mumbled in pain. But he still haven't let go of her wrist.
She tried to kick him again when he grabbed her left ankle just in time. "Stop trying to kick me!" And then she cough like mad. She was coughing like she had never done before, and it was hurting her so much. She cried.
And with one last furious cough, her hand was covered in blood, her eyes were filled with tears. Ichigo watched her in horror and suddenly let go of her ankle and wrist. She fell into her knees and started coughing more and more, he watched her as blood covered her wet blouse. His eyes widen as she shook and shivered in cold. He couldn't do anything but watch. Why was that?
Ichigo felt himself weak and suddenly he was reminded of that day…
The day his mother, Masaki, died.
"Ichigo, *cough * m-my l-little… boy, *cough* b-be… strong," Masaki's mouth were covered in blood and her eyes were covered in tears as she held her son tightly. "Protect your sisters, honor your father, and… *cough* love yourself…."
"M-Mother…."
Ichigo blinked to see Rukia still coughing blood, crying in pain, holding herself.
"Mother…!"
