Chapter 9:

Faded Memories Return

A little dark haired girl heard from down stairs. The girl was playing with her older brother's toy cars, while another girl the same age by her with short light brown hair was playing 'dress up' in a room Karin recognized as Yuzu's room. "I remember this... that's me and Yuzu when we were small..." Karin voice echoed. Yuzu put a pink feather boa around Karin,who was making two cars blow up saying "PWOOOf! Hey, Yuzu I don't wanna pway!" She said trying to get the feathers out of her mouth with a scrunched up face.

"Aw please Karin-chaaaaan" Yuzu asked making puppy eyes, with a small quivering bottom lip. Karin looked away, but Yuzu peek over her shoulder at Karin, her big amber eyes looking up at Karin. With that Karin sighed and stood up. She loved her twin sister, and hated to see her sad... And come on, no one can resist the puppy dog face. "Yay!" Yuzu squealed in happiness."Here put dis on! And dis! dis too!" Yuzu said adding necklaces and crowns. Karin wasn't paying attention only nodding and saying some "uh-huh"s and "Mhmm"s while she thought of those boys down the street who said she couldn't play soccer because she was a girl 'I'll show dem...' Karn thought. Yuzu continued to add their mom's red high heels, and adding pigtails saying "Oh! and dis, no, dis! dis too, and you'll look so pretty in dese!" When Yuzu put clip on earrings Karin winced in pain and took them off noticing all the things her younger sister put on her.

Karin had three different color boa feather scarves (Red, blue, and yellow), Her mom's red high heels, making her wobble a bit, colorful stalking that went to her knees, and one of their mom's blue dresses. 'Wow...'

"Yuzu do I have to wear all dis?" Karin asked annoyed at all the things her younger twin kept on adding, who nodded and started putting ribbons on Karin Pigtails, "When did you put the dwess on me?" Yuzu didn't answer her question only went up to their small drawer filled with different types of toys. Yuzu grabbed a bag and walked over to Karin with a smile that told Karin to run...

"And now..." Yuzu pulled out some of her play make-up. Karin jumped onto the bed as soon as she saw the pink lip gloss and play blush.

"No way! I hate that stuff Yuzu!" Karin said, kicking off the high heels.

"Come on! You'll look pretty!" Yuzu said while she jumped onto the bed. Karin tried to get away from Yuzu and got off the bed and started running down the hall. "Hey!" Yuzu yelled, after she too went running down the hall after Karin, pink cherry Lip gloss in hand. They both couldn't help but break out in laughter, with their new chasing game. Karin opened the door to her brothers room, who was lying on the floor watching his favorite show. "Oh yeah, Naruto, he liked it because they had the same hair color..." Karin's voice echoed one again, unheard by the siblings.

"Hey!" Ichigo yelled, as his sisters almost jumped on him. Ichigo grabbed Karin and ruffled her hair as Yuzu came in her hand extended with the lip gloss.

"Come on, it's just lip gloss, you'll look prettier!" Yuzu said,

"I'll hold her down!" Ichigo said laughing, holding Karin's arms back chuckling. Karin saw a water bottle on top of the TV, she put out a hand towards the water. The water in the bottle started swirling and seemed to levitate up an out of the bottle and over Ichigo. Ichigo looked up and the water came down on his head, making him let go of her.

"Ichigo! Karin! Yuzu!" They heard from down stairs. "Come down it's time for dinner!" Karin smiled at Ichigo, with a hint of a challenge.

"I bet I can get there before you, Ichi-nii!" Karin said as she started running out of the room. Soon Ichigo sped of after her, very fast, still wet. She turned to go down the hall way, she ran in the middle so Ichigo couldn't get through but he simply smiled and jumped over Karin, landing right in font of her so she stopped as he kept running forward.

"No fair!" she said as she got up and ran after him.

"Is to!" he yelled back to her. Seeing he was almost to the stairs she put her hand out towards his feet. At that time the carpet seemed to freeze over making Ichigo slip past the stairs and into the wall. "That was not fair!"

"Is too!" she said as she climbed down the stairs. Ichigo got up fast and went down the stairs in two jumps right behind Karin. At the same time the both tripped over the carpet in the living room making their chins hitting the floor at the same time with a thud.

"Ow..." Karin and Ichigo groaned at the same time.

At that time Yuzu jumped over both of them and sat at the table with a smile on her face. "I win" she said as their mother put a plate in front of Yuzu.

"Karin, Ichigo, are you okay?" Masaki asked as she went to her children, with a bit of humor behind her motherly voice. Ichigo got up rubbing his chin but Karin couldn't make herself move. "Karin,... Karin!" she heard her mom say, worry filling her voice. "Yuzu, come help Karin." she heard. "Karin.. kar...ri...k..ri..." her mothers voice faded.

"Karin!" She heard Yuzu's voice instead of her mothers.

Karin opened her eyes and saw she was being shaken, it was Yuzu shaking her to wake up. "Wha?" Karin asked drowsy. Yuzu only laughed.

"Karin get out of La la land, we need to get ready for school." She said with a smile that Karin would always feel safe with as she turned to head down stairs, Yuzu was already in her school uniform and had her hair in low pigtails. "And your not skipping out on breakfast today." She called a little more sternly. Karin sat up and stretched her muscles pushed the blankets off of her and went to the shower. After Karin got ready she sat down to breakfast and ate her cereal, when she heard a knock.

"Karin-chan? Yuzu-chan?" They could both hear Momo behind the door. Yuzu got up and answered and greeted Momo in a hug. "We were just wondering if you wanted to walk to school together." Momo said.

"We?" Thats when Karin saw Renji behind her, but the rest of the group (Pack?) was no where to be seen. "Hi Renji!" Yuzu said behind Karin. Suddenly they heard rumbling... "What's that?" renji started as Karin sighed.

"Karin, don't be too bad..." knowing she couldn't talk her sister out of it.

"don't be too bad on what?" Renji said. The loud rumbling came more distinct and could be heard at very fast foot steps.

"MY DARLING DAUGHTERS! ALREADY BRING HOME A BOYFR-" Isshin's little speech was cut short as Karin punched him right on the nose. Renji and Momo winced and Yuzu sighed and went to the counter.

"I'll get the first aid kit.." Yuzu said. Isshin was on the floor unconscious.

"Ne, Renji, Momo, Do you want something to eat?" Yuzu asked as she dragged their onto the couch. Yuzu was stronger than she appeared.

"Um... who was that?" Momo asked confused seeing a man suddenly get knocked unconscious by a teenage girl.

Karin shrugged and said "Oh that was just my Dad." making it seem like it was no big deal. Momo and Renji sweat dropped "So do you want some of Yuzu's awesome cooking?"

"It's not that great.." she said, blush on her face. "If you do want something-"

"Sure!" Renji said happy at the sight of food. "Dang, Karin, remind me to never get you mad." Renji chuckled as he looked at their father on the couch heading towards the kitchen table

"Renji, your gonna clean out their fridge!" Momo added. "It's okay, it's good to serve someone with a big stomach" Yuzu said following Renji, making sure their father wouldn't roll off the couch. Eventually Momo and Renji sat across from Karin and Yuzu and were talking, Renji and Karin were stuffing their faces with eggs and bacon, while Momo and Yuzu mostly talked about cooking.

"Hey, Renji, you could even rival my Onii-chan!" Yuzu laughed. "You eat just like him" Karin smiled knowing Yuzu was right, as she remembered the talk her and Ichigo had. it felt good to talk to him like that again. Karin remembered she was supposed to go over there in the morning, she turned to the clock, "Oh damn!" Karin said grabbing her bag.

"Karin." Yuzu said looking at her.

"Sorry I meant dang.. I wanted to go somewhere before school." Renji's mouth was full of toast so he simply nodded, as Momo seemed to watch Karin, leave the house, saying goodbye.

"Hey, Renji, for Health all we had to do was read the first chapter right then review it in class right?"She looked to Renji then grabbed her bag and after a while searched for something frantically.

"Um.. yeah I think so." Renji said, realizing what she was planning.

"Oh, Renji! I think I left my Health book on my bed, go ahead with Yuzu and I'll catch up with you later!" She said as she grabbed her bag and started for the door. "Oh Yuzu thanks for the breakfast it was great!" She said as she disappeared behind the door, and went in the direction Karin went after poking her dad.

"Well we should get going, Renji," Yuzu said happily as she grabbed her school bag with one thing in mind. Karin said she met Momo in P.E... She doesn't have health...

"Hey Yuzu will he be okay?" Renji said, poking their father in the cheek.

"Oh yeah, he'll wake up sooner or la-" Isshin burst awake trying to grab Renji who, backed up.

"OH NO! MY PRECIOUS DAUGHTER IS GOING OUT WITH A DELINQUENT!" He yelled and went to the poster of their Mother. "OH MASAKI LOOK AT THE MAN YUZU BROUGHT HO-" but he was knocked out as Yuzu pressed a pressure point on his shoulder. (1)

"Come on Renji, we don't wanna be late!" Yuzu smiled stepping over their father and headed towards the door. Renji simply looked down at the man and followed behind Yuzu. Um, you guys... don't ever get Karin or Yuzu mad...

Why? Ikkaku's voice asked in Renki's head

I'll tell you later...


Do...Yu...ad..

Wh...

I'll... ell..er...

"Did you say something Renji?" Yuzu asked Renji as they walked out

"Nah, come on, they're giving waffles this morning!" Renji ran ahead. Yuzu laughed, but she swore she heard some one talking... She shrugged and ran after Renji.

"How are you still hungry?" Yuzu laughed. (2)


Momo could smell Karin, but something was off about her scent. 'Her scent seemed to have changed from yesterday, it's still Karin's scent, but there's something...' Momo followed behind Karin and hoped she wouldn't be discovered. Then Momo could smell some one else... It's a Hunter! She thought as she saw a dark haired girl who seemed 19 or 20 hug Karin, She had a hair strand down her face, and in between her eyes, and was petite, kinda short too. Whats a hunter have anything to do with Karin... Do they wanna hurt her? Karin looks like she knows her. Damn i can't hear anything with all the people here, and i can't get any closer or she'll sense me and attack.


"Kaaaariiiin!" Karin heard a familiar voice call as she was pulled into a hug.

"Oh, Rukianee!" Karin said, hugging her sister in law. Karin always knew she could trust her brothers wife, thought Karin always felt kinda strange being with her. Than she remembered what her brother told her, about her being in a famous hunter's family, The Kuchikis.

"Ne, Rukianee..." Karin asked kinda wonder how she could ask such a thing.

"Huh?" Rukia asked, but then Rukia seemed to be distracted. Karin looked up to her and followed her eyes, but before Karin could see Rukia was pulling her down the street.

"Karin, it's almost gonna be 8 your gonna be late for school." Rukia said still pulling her down the street, farther from where she first looked.

"Who was there Rukia?" Karin asked in a low voice, "was it one of the pack?" with that Rukia stopped.

"Ichigo already told you?" She asked her back still facing towards Karin.

"Not everything, not yet. I was supposed to go this morning but I-"

"Karin, go straight to school, and don't look back, someones following you." Karin stiffened. Who the hell would be following me.. why would they be following me? "It's okay I'll follow close behind to make sure they don't so anything to you, okay?" Rukia smiled reassuringly

"Right, but go to Urahara's and tell Ichi-nii I'm fine if you can, I know he'll be worried I didn't show up."

"Right" By then Rukia turned and raised her voice to normal level. "Oh, well you should get to school! Your brother will kill me if I let you get in trouble!"

"Okay, Bye Rukia!" Karin said faking ignorance and started jogging toward her school. Karin tried to concentrate on the people around her. It was weird she could still tell Rukia was starting to follow Karin. How can I tell? I could just... feel it. Then Karin slowed down a bit but picked up the pace and kept on going, How come I didn't feel this before, someone was following me, god that was stupid! But who the hell is it, I know this person... Karin thought as she arrived at school, she could feel Rukia in the trees outside the school fences, and the other person was close behind, but seemed to fade just a bit.

Then Karin tripped over her own feet, no even concentrating on walking and fell. Right on top of someone, making both her and the other person's stuff spill out in the slowly emptying hallway. Not my day...Karin got up and started gathering up her things. "Oh I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention and..." Karin looked up to see a guy, but the light shining down behind his head made a shadow over his face and her voice was lost in her throat.

"Oh it's quite alright, I wasn't really paying attention either." He said. Karin couldn't find anything to say. It was him the one from her dream, the one that thrusts his sword right through her stomach, killing her.

"Are you Alright?" he asked, and Karin flinched at the familiar voice. He knelled down and looked right at her. But He had square glassed and his hair wasn't swept back like in the dream, but behind the warm facade Karin could see something behind those glasses in his eyes. She instantly didn't like him, he seemed... just wrong. He waved a hand in front of her face and she snapped out of it, picking up her stuff avoiding his eyes.

"Um..Yeah, I'm sorry, y-you just remind me of some one I-I know..." Karin said a little more shakily then she wanted.

"I hope that's a good thing" he chuckled slightly. He gathered his things and placed them in his bag and helped Karin also. "I'm Aizen Sosuke,"

"I'm Karin Kurosaki." Karin said. She tried to get her composure back. "I guess we better get going before we're-" with that the bell rang, and Karin noticed they were the only people in the hallway, "Late..." she sighed. She said goodbye to Aizen with a smile and rushed to class.

Karin walked into her room, Somethings wrong with this Aizen... She thought.
