Bright Beauty (Grimmjow love story)

Chapter 3

Akemi's POV

The next morning, I woke up 30 minutes later than I wanted; meaning I only had 5 minutes to get ready. I threw on my school uniform, grabbed a piece of toast, exited my apartment, and sprinted off towards the high school.

Nearing the school, I crashed into a tall orange headed teen.

"Hey watch where you're going!" He exclaimed angrily, turning around to face me.

"Sorry, I was rushing," I said, and then recognized him, "Hey you're Rukia's friend! The orange headed guy she gave her powers too! Nice to meet ya!"

"The name's Ichigo, Ichigo Kurosaki." He stated.

I stuck my hand out, "I'm supposed to help you with the hollows! My name Akemi Iseri, 4th seat of the 11th Squad."

"Wait, isn't Squad 11 the fighting squad?"

"Yeah! And just because I'm a girl doesn't mean I don't like to fight!"

RIIIINNNNGGGG

"That's the bell!" I said, grabbed his hand, and raced to the school. Having no idea where I was going, I relied on my new orange haired friend to direct me to our classroom. We soon arrived, and the teacher was waiting impatiently for Ichigo.

"Mr. Kurosaki you are late!" The teacher yelled.

"Ms. he was just showing me where to go." I said, coming into her line of vision. "I'm Akemi Iseri, the new student."

"Welcome, I'm Ms. Ochi! You can sit in that empty seat behind Ms. Inoue."

I searched the room for Rukia's description of Orihime. I found her, and sat behind her.

"Well class this is Akemi Iseri, please make her feel at home. " Ms. Ochi smiled, before started today's lesson.

Later on, lunch came, and I went with Ichigo's gang to the roof. Uryu, Chad, and Orihime I recognized from Rukia's descriptions. The others, who I learned their names were, Keigo, Tatsuki, and Mizuiro, were the regular humans, though I sensed slight spiritual pressure within them.

"So Akemi, where are you from?" Mizuiro asked me, while setting out this lunch. I also go out my lunch, before answering.

"I'm from a town a little farther up the river." I answered, making it up on the spot. "I had to move because I heard this was a good High School."

"What about your parents?" Tatsuki asked.

"They're dead." I stated plainly.

"Oh, I'm so sorry!"

"It's OK, my semi-adoptive father takes care of me. He's away on business right now though," I said, then thought, 'Killing business.'

"Akemi, whose you're adoptive father?" Ichigo asked.

"You know him very well. Kenpachi Zaraki." I said, smiling.

Ichigo looked scared as I answered. I thought about it before saying something else. "Don't worry Strawberry, I'll put in the good word for you!"

Ichigo looked slightly better, but was still scared of me.

We all finished our lunch, and went back to class. School ended later, without a single hollow attack. Lucky us.

The second day in the World of the Living was successful.
