Bleach: Dark and Broken Memories

Chapter 3

The Hollow's attacks become more violent and destructive as it smashes the streets creating huge crates in the street. I click my tongue "Hadou 4: Byakurai" I screamed as a huge bolt of lightning emerges from my hand and heading on a course towards the Hollow. The spell hits the Hollow destroying it in one hit, I sigh and pick up my belongings and head back home.

It's the next morning and I am getting ready for school, Aunt Shizuka has my bento box and hands it to me. "Be careful" she warns me and hands the bento box to me, I run to father and kiss him on his cheek "bye daddy" I happily state and head out. "Be careful again today!" he warns as he waves his fan in his face. I run down the street quickly since its almost time for classes to begin, "damn I'm going to be really late" I groaned, breathing heavily, as I did that I don't realize where my footing goes and slip skinning my knee and left elbow. I check my knee and elbow and start crying a little bit "I'm to big to cry like this" I bawled as I see two shadows over mine. I turn around to see Rukia smiling "are you alright?" she wondered as Ichigo walks up to me and sighs "I'm fine" I groaned as I look through my book bag to find something to clean up my knee with since its still bleeding. Ichigo turns around and crouches down facing his back towards me, his hands are behind his back inviting me for a piggyback ride. "Hurry up we have to get that treated at the school before it gets infected" he expressed as I take up on his offer.

Ichigo gets up and we continue to head to school, I'm slightly embarrassed "Ichigo? Is this alright?" I ask him shyly and blushing hard. He turns his head to look at me and smiles "its fine, I stopped carrying about my reputation along time ago" he responded me as he returns his head to look in front. I sigh and breathe lightly and sense something strange from him "Reiatsu? Shinigami Reiatsu?" I questioned to myself. Rukia looks at Ichigo "I'll meet the both of you in homeroom" she states and heads off "I wonder if she's jealous since I always see you together" I blabbed as I joked around with Ichigo. His face is completely red from ear to ear. I giggle as I prodded his left cheek childishly as he takes me to the nurse's office.

We arrive at the office to see the nurse. I'm sitting on a chair waiting to see her grabbing her kit and clean my wounds. She then bandages them "take care" she smiled. I get up and leave the nurse's office with Ichigo "thanks" I blubber under my breath and head back to class at that particular moment Keigo runs up to me "HARUMI!!" he cries out screaming trying to hug me, but I clothes line him with a fist "Keigo please stop" I grunted as I step over his body, like nothing happened and head to my desk. The others look at me "what happened?" Hikaru and Mizuiro questioned in concern. I smile "I just tripped on my own two left feet" I blurted out in embarrassment. As we continue talking the homeroom teacher walks into the room "alright everyone calm down and lets get class started" she yakked as everyone sits at their own desks.

Its lunch time once again and I'm with the gang on the roof eating. The weather is starting to change so it has become slightly chillier, but it's not cold yet. I smile as I chow down on the lunch Aunt Shizuka made for me this morning. I start having a conversation with Hikaru, at that moment Uryuu looks at us with disgust. I look at him and whisper to her "Uryuu doesn't like me does he" I addressed to her as she smiles "don't worry about him, he's always like that" she interjects as she continues to eat her lunch. Sado, Ichigo and Ishida are eating in silence as normal, "Hey Keigo help lighten the mood" bosses Ichigo to Keigo again. This makes Keigo cry, but he does a comedy routine anyway.

The bell rings and all of us gather our items and head to class. As we do I walk up to Ichigo "uhm...thanks for this morning" I flirted as I look down embarrassed "its no problem" he expressed happily making me blush. The last bell has finished and I'm collecting my belongings while the entire gang exits the room. I sigh and grab my bag and head out the room and towards the main exit, as I walk down to the gate I look down to see a notebook. I kneel down to see Ichigo's name written on the cover of the notebook. I look at it while picking it up, "I wonder where he went" I pondered as I close my eyes; a small amount of reiatsu emerges from my body. I snap my eyes open to see ribbons, I see a bright red one and grab it immediately "Since I sensed Shinigami reiatsu from him, this defiantly should be him" I clarified and head to where the reiatsu was taking me.
