Bleach: Dark and Broken Memories

Chapter 1

(I do not own any of the Bleach materials or characters, except for Shizuka and Harumi who are OC)

It is early June and unnaturally warm so I decided to wear a purple spaghetti strap summer dress. Not many people have come by the shop, except for several Shinigami that have come to buy items from the Soul society.  I begin my chores first I start cleaning the entire store; Ururu and Ginta are taking a break outside and playing in the water having fun. I start feeling a little depressed and lonely so Aunty Shizuka walks up to me smiling as her long brown hair drapes in front of her face. She  “What’s wrong?” she asks looking at me worriedly “nothing” I reply back and grab several boxes of supplies to be put away in storage. I then return to the small living room to see Shizuka and father talking about something and walk up to them. I look at both of them confused and slightly curious about what they are talking about  “is everything alright?” I ask them both wondering if anything is wrong. My father looks at me startled as he hides something behind his back, I stare at him curiously “what’s going on?” I questioned trying to find out what’s going on.

Both my father and aunt look at each other than towards me. He sighs and reveals what is behind his back to show a school uniform “your aunt and I believe that you should attend one of the local high schools in the area starting Monday. We enrolled you at Karakura High” says father happily smiling. I become excited about what father has told me “THANK YOU DADDY!” I cheered in a loud voice hugging him uncontrollably. “There was one problem though, we had to get you a larger size shirt and jacket because of the size of your chest,” he laughed making me blush and annoyed “HEY!” I scream at him in anger and whack him over the head. He rubs his head as my aunt starts laughing and grabs both the shirt and jacket from father “I'm going to alter it right now so that the shirt and jacket fit you perfectly alright” she giggled and exits the room smiling. I'm alone with dad continuing to hug him once more “Harumi can you go and help Tessai with dinner?” questiones father “alright I can’t wait to start school on Monday” I scream excitedly “so our dear little girl is starting school” commented a familiar voice. I turn around to see a black cat with bright gold/yellow eyes. “Yoruichi I'm starting High School this Monday” I tell Yoruichi smiling “that’s great Harumi, however when your there no kido understand” nagged Yoruichi in a stern voice. “I promise, no kido or shunpo,” I vowed smiling joyfully. Father notices my enthusiasm and chuckles “My cutie pie is growing up so quick” he brags and starts hugging me “it felt like only yesterday you were toilet training” he wept as he went on talking. I start getting annoyed and hit him over the head blushing “stop it I’m not a child anymore” I roared at him as he holds his head which has a huge bump from hitting him.

It is Monday morning and I’m getting ready for the morning by taking a shower, and changing into the school uniform, I then brush my hair and braid it before heading into the kitchen to grab breakfast. I depart from my room and stroll to the kitchen to see Shizuka making my bento box and Tessai getting breakfast ready. I smile at them “Tessai, Shizuka how do you like this uniform?” I questioned them excitedly and chuckle. Aunt smiles at me “you look so good, especially since I did some of those modifications” she commented as she inspects the uniform. I gush at her comment “oh your bento box is ready, a map to Karakura High from the house and several different shortcuts to get there as well” she proposed as she looks at her watch. “Harumi you need to grab something to eat now it’s going to take you some time to get to school, everything you need is in your bookcase” she added and hands me something to eat, and my school bag and took off.
