Ichigo's POV:
As I approached the apartment building people were crowding around the front. I desprately listened to see if they had found Kira or not.
"The police have still not found any survivors!" I heard a reporter say over the shouts of people. I gritted my teeth and ran around the back of the building. Thick smoke filled the air but I climbed the back ladder on to the apartment balcony. I looked inside to see flames engulfing every part of the room, rafters were falling from the ceiling, crushing everything.
"Kira!" I shouted, covering my mouth from the smoke. I quickly dodged another falling rafter and pushed my way through the apartment. I pushed a door open, burning my hand a bit.
Where is she? Could I be...I shook my head, I couldn't be too late!
Suddenly my foot touched something, I looked down to see a hand covered in black ash. I lifted up a rafter up and found Kira curled up on the floor.
"Kira.." I coughed, the smoke was starting to fill my lungs. I lifted her up in my arms and her arms let go of something. I bent down and picked up a glass frame with some kind of family photograph. I tucked it back into her arms and found my way back out of the apartment. I jumped from the balcony and landed a bit shaky but, I continued on. I didn't know where I was headed but, I was glad she was okay.
Kira's POV:
"Kira!" I heard a voice shout over the snapping of the flames. I coughed again, I started to feel dizzy. Am I going to die? Then, I can be with with Mom and Dad...where I belong...
I closed my eyes and drifted off...
I opened my eyes for a short second, my vision was hazy. But, one thing was clear as day..
Bright, orange hair stained with ash. Am I on my way to Heaven? In the arms of an orange-haired angel..
Then I recognized the face of the angel and his strong embrace. Ichigo Kurosaki...the Soul Reaper
My hand reached up, shaking, to touch his cheek. But, my vision blurred and my hand slid off, leaving a black mark on his cheek.
"Kira...hold on! Just a little longer.." Were the last words I heard..
Ichigo's POV:
"Kira!" I panicked and starting running faster, even though it was starting to make me dizzy. I coughed and huffed, trying to make it to somewhere safe.
The more I ran, the harder it got to see. Then, I stumbled and fell on the sidewalk, Kira still cradled gently in my arms.
I-I can't think straight, I can't see...
Please...please don't let me die here..
I heard footsteps and looked up to see a figure standing over me....
Everything faded to black....
