Author's Note:
So I need to do my mid-term paper today and I haven't started it yet. Whoops.
Kaleidoscope
a Bleach (© Kubo Tite) fanfiction
Theme #97
Transformation
Opening Song: "Heart Attack" — Demi Lovato
Rangiku is still picking up the pieces that Gin left behind, but she's not sad anymore. This is a part of life — having, loving, losing — and she can't allow herself to lay down and wait for something better to come along. She has to keep moving, otherwise she'll be stuck in the same place forever. Gin gave her so much, and it wouldn't be fair for her to give that all up. Rangiku is stronger than that.
Her friends watch her transform. Rangiku has always been bright, but something from within shines even stronger.
Gin must have known how broken she would be when he finally left for good. Whenever he disappeared, he made sure to leave nothing behind; she used to hate him for it. But he knew that if he had left anything for her to remember him by, she would never move on. Gin knew.
She becomes stronger. She keeps the necklace and scarf, even when she changes her wardrobe.
Rangiku stands in front of the mirror, holding a pair of scissors. She hesitates only for a moment — and cuts off her hair. It's short, the way she used to keep it when she was a child, before Gin had told her he liked her hair long. It's the last piece of him, really, and she allows the tendrils to fall through her fingers and to the floor.
Closing Song: "Mountain and Sound" — Of Monsters and Men
This is angst and uplifting at the same time, so… sorry for the feelings ahaha. Okay, I definitely need to work on my mid-term now.
