A sigh escapes Rukia as she taps her foot before eyeing the clock on the wall. It was 9:30, where was Ichigo?! 'He better not be sleeping in, he promised to go sight-seeing with me.' thought Rukia. She heard a ding and looked to the elevator to see Ichigo walk out. "Finally...huh, who's that?" asked Rukia.

Ichigo blinked but let Gin come closer. "This is Gin Ichimaru, he said he could give us a tour." said Ichigo. Rukia gave him a weird look. "Can we really trust him?" asked Rukia. Gin then out a chuckle and put a hand to his shoulder and bowed a bit.

"Don't worry, ma chère, I know this city like tha back of ma hand." said Gin. The girl shivered, she couldn't couldn't explain it, but there was something strange about this man. "Stop showing off." said Ichigo. "Oh, are ya jealous, mon amour, if you are, I'll pay all my attention on ya." purred Gin, sliding up closer to the teen. "What the hell is wrong with you, and what the fuck does 'Mon amour' mean anyway?!" demanded Ichigo.

Rukia laughed but was curious herself. As Gin lead them to the door, Rukia pulled out a language dictionary and looked through it. A hand went to her mouth and she smiled. 'Oo la la.' thought Rukia. "Hey midget, you coming?" asked Ichigo.

She kicked him in the shin. "Don't call me that!" yelled Rukia. "Oh no, Ichi, she's a nain, so show some curtisy." said Gin. Rukia smirked and went on ahead. Ichigo only went up to Gin and looked at him.

"What the hell does 'nain' mean?" asked Ichigo. "It's french for 'midget', 'dwarf', basicly little person." chuckled Gin. Ichigo snorted and the two went after the nain girl.

"Oh wow." awed Rukia. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the view of Paris from the effial tower. "Nah, ya think this is pretty, wait till night arrives, then it's oh si belle." said Gin. Rukia smiled more and Ichigo looked around. It looked nothing like in his dream so he was glad.

They left the viewing area and headed for the doors. 'Please let it be the same.' thought Ichigo. They went out and the teen was happy to see it was still the same. "Oh, Paris is so great." beamed Rukia. "Ya, so, where to next?" asked Ichigo.

Gin then slid up to the teen's side with a smile. "Where ever ya wanna go next, ma douce." said Gin. Once again, Rukia looked into her dictionary and blushed a bit. "Well, what other attractions are there?" asked Ichigo. Gin only smiled and sighed.

"La seule attraction que je vois est votre beauté, mon amour." said Gin. "Uh, what?" asked Ichigo. Rukia nearly squealed when she looked it up. "Oh nothin." purred Gin happily. Rukia was looking in another book and her eyes widened in curiousity.

"Hey, what about Le manoir de Yamamoto, sounds intresting." said Rukia. "Oh, tha's a big attraction, it's a large manor that belonged ta a wealthy man wrapped in mystery." said Gin. "Well, let's go see it then." said Ichigo. "Of course, mon amour, I'll show ya tha way." said Gin. He then lead the two away from the effial tower and back into town.

"We almost there?" asked Rukia. "Yep, tha's it in fact." said Gin. Ichigo looked and paled. It was the same building he saw in his dream! The girl ran up the steps and Gin walked with the teen.

"Are ya okay, Ichigo, ya seem a bit pale." said Gin. "Y-ya, I'm fine." said Ichigo. Gin was concerned and they went inside. It was the samething he saw in his dream and they looked at all the objects. "So, what kind of man was this guy?" asked Rukia.

"His name was Yamamoto, not much is known, though their was a rumor tha he was tha first tueur de démon in history." said Gin. "A what?" asked Rukia. "A demon slayer." said Gin. "Really?' asked Ichigo. "Yep, in fact, it was said he built a weapon that was powerful enough ta destroy a whole continet and ta keep it's powers outta evil hands, he hid somewhere secret." said Gin.

Both teens were intrested and listened to the man. "No one knows if it was true or not, tha only thin Yamamoto left behind was a sayin." said Gin. "What was the saying?" asked Ichigo. "Dans la nuit de la Lune Ecarlate, l'arme sera appelée quand ma bouée de sauvetage est présent." said Gin. "What?" asked Rukia.

"I don't know, it's just a sayin." said Gin. "She means, what's the translation." said Ichigo. "Oh, it is 'On the night of the Scarlet Moon, the weapon will be called when my lifeline is present'." said Gin. Ichigo's eyes widened as he remembered his dream. 'Beware of the scarlet moon, for it only means death is to come.'

"Ichigo, are you okay?" asked Rukia. "Ya, I just need to find a bathroom." lied Ichigo. He quickly left with a concern Rukia and Gin watching after him. Ichigo stopped at a hallway that was empty and let out a shakey breath. Was his dream a vision?!

He shook his head, it couldn't be true and why him?! Just then, he froze, hearing piano music. It was the same as from his dream. He looked to see the same stair case and took in a breath. He walked up the stairs and walked down the hall.

He entered the room and came into the study where he saw someone at the piano. There was an old man playing it, happily humming along. He went forward so he was beside the piano. "Are you Yamamoto?" asked Ichigo. The music stopped and the elder faced him.

"Indeed I am, youngster." said Yamamoto. "Then, what was with that dream?" asked Ichigo. Yamamoto sighed and picked up a wooden staff and got up, bones cracking. "I wished to warn you for the up coming future." said Yamamoto. "Wha-why?" asked Ichigo.

The elder was heading to the door and looked back. "Follow me." said Yamamoto. Ichigo numbly followed and they went further down the hall. They came to a tapestry and Ichigo's eyes widened. It showed a red moon with a matching red sky and black clouds. It also had monsterous beats and dead people and a large man holding what looked like an executer's ax.

"What is this?" asked Ichigo. "During my final days alive, I made this tapestry, look at the bottom." said Yamamoto. Ichigo looked and saw the words Gin had spoken earlier. "So, this is real?' asked Ichigo. "Yes, which is why you must be careful as to who you trust, expecialy when they have deadly auras." said Yamamoto.

Ichigo blinked, auras? "What do yo-" started Ichigo. Yamamoto was gone, leaving Ichigo alone in the hall. He shook his head in disbelief, but it was real. People were going to die on the scarlet moon.

A/N: Well, Ichigo has SOME answers, but not all of them. What IS the scarlet moon, what is this secret weapon, and will Ichigo ever understand French? Stay tuned and plz review.
