Perfection For Us (Bleach Story) Ch.13 The Haunting Memories

I first met Hizume-sama and Ishi-sama when they were in their 15th year of being captains. I was with Captain Kuchiki, Captain Shihoin, and Captain Urahara. “Kaiko this is Hizume Ran one of our fellow captains.” Urahara said. I looked at the beautiful woman when Byakuya Kuchiki showed up alone. Hizume sighed, “What did you do with Ishi?” she asked. “Why whatever do you mean?” Byakuya asked like he was innocent. “She should be here so what did you do?” “Oohhh nothing grandfather….i just tied her up upside down from a tree branch as revenge for the yo-yo hakuma wedgie she gave me this morning.” the other four sighed. “Take us to her.” Shihoin said. Byakuya shrugged and led the way. And there she was yelling obescetenices (sp?)  and wriggling trying to get out. Hizume sighed and cut her down. Ishi dove for Byakuya. “That is Ishi Mai…. My best friend.” Hizume sighed while Byakuya and Ishi were trying to kill each other. It was such a homey atmosphere. I got to know them a lot better. Montague of pictures ranging from dinner with the two to a “yo-yo hakuma wedgie” on Byakuya. Then was the day this hollow first came. “Soifon!” Hizume yelled out. “Byakuya!” Ishi said at the same time then they jumped in front of them. At this time they were lieutenants then their past played out.

 (Cue “Hinata’s Theme” Seriously have that playing while reading. I don't own that song though it belongs to Naruto.)My nii-san and I were always close. It was Ishi’s memory. I grew up in a temple trying to be a priestess. That was Hizume’s. Then on that day…. Me and nii-san were walking. It was raining. Then from nowhere a hollow attacked. “Ishi! Run!” I was frozen in place. Tears in my eyes as my soul reaper brother tried to fight the hollow off to no prevail. Then the hollow moved towards me and go a shallow cut from my shoulder across my chest for about 4 inches then my brother’s body was in the way. His blood coated my face. I ran then. I didn’t run to get help I ran because I saw it. My brother’s head was torn from his torso. The rain and the blood mixed as I ran. A hollow attacked my temple that night. I was screaming out for my friends and family. The rain pelted down on the temple but still the blaze ceased to die. I heard the cackle of the hollow and a scream. Then I saw its red eyes that haunt me for life now. I ran. I was scared. And I was useless! That was when we met.  (This kind of underline means they say it together. This is Hizume. And this is Ishi.) In the pouring rain running from different directions we encountered each other. Freezing when we saw each other. “Soot what happened?” I asked. “Blood what happened to you?” I asked at the same time. “People/a person dear to me have/has been killed I am running from the hollow.” We said in unison. I held out my hand. “Do you want to run together?” I nodded and took her hand. Together we ran in the rain. We both supported each other.

 Then my dear friend and lieutenant of squad 11 tried to kill me. So I resigned after I recovered. And I was forced to kill him that day. It was raining then too. I can still see it his body in a pool of blood my sword coated in it and the tears running in it as I was on the ground beside him from my throat injury. There was no way I could face my squad now! I was foolish. I made a mistake. I trusted HIM! He lied. He led me and some of my squad into a trap! I had to kill him and the hollows I was the only who survived. I could not bear to face my squad again! Cowards that is what we are. We worry what if one day we can’t protect those we care about? Byakuya. Soifon. Urahara. Yoruichi. Jushiro. Kyoraku. Unohana. Yama-sama and so many others. They trust us. What if we fail??? What would we do then……? All of this happened while they were being treated for injuries. They were wrong they weren’t cowards. Cowards wouldn’t run to protect those they cared for. They were protectors…and they worried about their friends. That I could respect. When they came back they spoke with me so kindly. And now I die….I’m sorry Hizume-sama and Ishi-sama.

Kaiko was caught by both girls. The two began to treat her injuries. “You most certainly cannot die!” Hizume said. “Heck ya! You can’t talk like that then kick the bucket! Stay with us!” Ishi said. The newer captains were in shock. Kaiko sadly passed. Ishi had tears forming. She slammed her fist into the ground. Standing she turned vicious. She vaulted up and was joined by Hizume. Together they killed the hollow as revenge. Then landed. Then fell to their knees. Toshiro ran to Ishi. “Guess that day isn’t so classified anymore.” She said crying. Toshiro pulled her closer. Ishi grabbed onto his uniform. Hizume just tackled Renji when he ran over to her. Kaiko was dead. That day had been revealed what other woes must they endure?
