"Well Maybe you should train them. Since you are the great "Lady Haruna." You heard a dark familiar voice say behind you. You quickly turned around and saw a man with silver hair and a big grin on his mouth. He was wearing a captains uniform.
"Captain Ichimaru Gin." You said as your voice trembled. He was one of the people you didn't want to run into.
"Gin..." You said afraid of what to say as he walked closer to you his smile growing bigger.
You finally gained your strength and grabbed your Zanpakutoh and pulled it in front of you.
"Ahh, Always ready for a fight." He said as he stood in front of you. You looked at him with a cold stare as he continued to smile. All the sudden he disappeared out of thin air.
"To bad you won't win." you heard him whispered in you ear behind you. You felt a sharp pain in your back. You fell to your knees and winced in pain. You looked back up at him. He still smiled as he walked back over to you. You quickly got up and ran to him ready to hit him with your sword but before it could hit him he punched you in the stomach.
You grabbed your stomach as you once again fell to your knees. You felt his hand grab your hair and pull you up to his level. You were looking into his cold mean eyes as he looked into yours.
"It amazes me how some one is supposed to be wonderful at everything turns out be suck." He said and threw you across the roof.
Your head was now hanging by the edge of the roof. The ground below you was far away. You were to weak to get up. He then kneeled next to you and grabbed you neck begging to choke you. You grabbed onto his hand trying to pull them off.
His hand were cold. He lifted you up and hung you over the edge of the roof. Your feet dangling below you as it continued to look like and even longer drop each second you looked at it.
"If you can't save your self, how are you going to save you little boyfriend." He snickered as you looked at him in shock. Before you could ask him what he ment you felt his hand leave your neck.
"oopsies." He snickered as you felt your self fall to the ground. you were to weak to summon any power to save yourself. You looked up at the sky. You smiled at yourself.
"I'm sorry Renji...I guess this time you won't be able to say your sorry again." Then everything went black.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ichigo, Ganjyu, and Hanatarou, from the fourth division Relief Team, were walking across the pathway towards the Sisinrou where Rukia is kept.
A thick fog was starting to form as the headed for the stairs in front of them.
"Let's hurry." Ichigo said as his group nodded. They all continued to walk towards the stairs.
Suddenly Ichigo stopped in his tracks and stared at the stairs.
"Someone's at the stairs." he said as he held his hand out to tell Ganjyu to not say anything. Ichigo continued to try to look through the thick fog.
Once it started to clear up he noticed a fimilar face. It was a man with fire red hair walking towards him. Ichigo looked shock when he realized who it was.
"Long time no see. Do you still remember my face?" Renji asked as he looked Ichigo with hateful eyes.
"I would love to forget it, but there is a mountain of stuff a have to repay you for, Abarai Renji." Ichigo replayed also looking at Renji with hateful eyes.
"Why don't we start with Haruna." Ichigo continued as the fog started to clear up.
Renji eyes grew more hateful, "What ever you’re going to do you should stay out of it. It's between me and Haruna." Renji replied trying to hold back his anger.
"Look!" Hanatarou Yelled as he pointed to the air. Ichigo and Renji both looked at that direction wondering what was so important.
They saw something falling from the roof. Once renji got a closer look he then noticed it was a person. A girl. Haruna.
"Is that-" Ganjyu said unable to finish his sentence. Before anyone could answer his question Renji quickly ran over to her. Before she could hit the ground she landed into renji arms.
"Haruna..." He said unable to find any words to say. he then looked up wondering what made her fall. He noticed Gin looking down with a big grin on his face. Gin then smiled even bigger and walked off.
Renji Looked at him in anger as he heard Haruna mumble.
"Renji..." she called out for him, He looked at her with concern.
"Haruna. I'm right here. don't worry." Renji said as he brushed her bangs away from her face. her skin was still warm. A good sign. He then carried her the Hanatarou and put her in his arms.
"You can take care of her right? Figure out what’s wrong with her and heal her." Renji ordered as he set her to the ground and examined her.
Renji watched as he looked at the girl he loved with sadness. She looked like she was dead, and she could have been if they weren't here.
"Haruna..." Ichigo said as he walked over to her and bent down beside her. "She's my best friend. She has never kept anything from me, she told me everything. But she never told me about you. Even when I asked her about you she still wouldn't tell me." Ichigo said as Renji looked away from them.
"That night when you came after Rukia I saw her face. I'd never seen her so sad before in my life. And she wouldn't stop crying. And I figured out, she wasn't crying because of me. She was crying because of you. Because you hurt her so much." Ichigo continued on.
Renji clench his fist so hard that they started to bleed.
"After a while," Ichigo continued, "I started to put the pieces together. About what she told me before we dated."
Renji eyes shot opened when he heard that.
"She told me about this boy that she fell in love with. He was a kind person always made her smile and laugh. But she said he disappeared one day. And she never saw or herd from him again. Then she told me, if it was possible that i accept the love she gives me and that fact that she wouldn't love me as much as she loved him." Ichigo then looked at Renji and wondered what he was thinking.
Renji continued to look away Anger, regret, sadness, every emotion was running through him.
"What she doesn't know is that I did return on day." Renji spoke trying to hide the sadness and anger in his voice, "And I saw her with another guy. She kissed him and she looked happy as I'd ever seen her. That little brat was you."
Renji then turned back to Ichigo. They both stared at each other for a long time.
"She looks like she'll be fine. Just some minor injuries. Nothing major" Hanatarou said.
Renji looked away again in relief. Ichigo stood back up and looked at renji.
"Let finish this." Ichigo said as he pulled out his Zanpakutoh. Renji nodded and did the same.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
You were running, and completely surrounded by darkness. You seemed to be searching for something but you didn't know what. You continued to look.
You stopped as you spotted something. You started to walk closer to it but noticed what it was.
It was Renji. He was just standing there looking distant. He then turned around and noticed you. A happy warm smile formed on his face.
"Hey Haruna." Hesaid as you started to smile back. You started to walk over to him but suddenly stopped. A shining light was reflecting off a sword. You watched as that sword was lifted up into the air and headed toward Renji.
"Renji!" You yelled trying to warn him but it was to late. The sword cut threw his body. He fell to the floor in front of you as blood spilled out from his body.
Tears began to form in your eyes as you stared at his life less eyes.
"Haruna." You heard another voice say behind you. You quickly turned around to see Ichigo smiling at you like he always did. But before you could say anything the same sword stabbed him in the back.
You watched Ichigo's body fall to the floor. The sword still stuck in his back. You watched someone walk up behind him and pull the sword out.
You screamed in horror as the shaded figure started to walk closer to you. You then noticed a huge grin on his face.
Gin.
"How can you save your boyfriend if you can't save yourself?" Gin snickered as he lifted his sword up ready to kill you next.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
You gasped for breath as you sat up quickly. You breathing was short as you tried to think of what just happened. Was it a dream, or was it real?
"You awake." You heard a voice say from beside you. You turned your head to see a boy with long black hair. He was wearing a black soul reapers outfit but wasn't carrying a Zanpakutoh. He had a shy and scared face at the same time.
"Who are you?" You asked as the boy looked even more nervous.
He stuttered at his words "My-my name is Hanatarou. I-I"
"Your from the fourth division. Right?" You asked noticing his sash across his chest.
"Yes that’s right!" He said as he looked up at you, his hands clutched together in his lap.
"What happened?" You asked trying to remember how your not dead. You fell 10 feet in the air. You should have hit the ground. You should have died.
" Well. We noticed you falling from the sky. So Vice-Captain Renji quickly caught you and asked me to heal you. You were passed out at the time." He answered for you as you looked at him funny.
Renji helped you. Renji was here? Why didn't he stay? Why didn't he wait for you to wake up? Many questions were running through your head at one time. Your head started to hurt. You quickly winced in pain as you put you hand on your fore head.
"Are you alright? Maybe you should lay back down." Hanatarou said worried.
"No I'm fine." You assured him as you looked at the ground and continued your thinking.
"Haruna..." You heard another voice beside you say. You looked over and saw Ganjyu staring over a piece of rubble that he obviously used as a shield.
"I think you should see what's going on. I think you would want to know." He said fear in his voice.
You looked at him oddly then looked at the direction he was looking.
You eyes widened in shock as you couldn't believe what you were looking at. Renji sat against a piece of rubble. His shoulder bleeding wildly. In front of him was Ichigo his head bleeding and his shoulder cut.
Renji screamed in pain as his knees fell to the floor. blood dripping from the many wounds on his body.
"Renji!" You yelled as you tried to run over to him but Ganjyu held you back.
"Haruna no!" He yelled but you just ignore him. You pulled your hand out of his grip and ran over to Renji. You quickly kneeled in front of him. Renji looked up at you shock. He noticed the tears in your eyes.
He smiled as you put your hand on his cheeks.
"Haruna...Your alright." He said, his voice cracking. tears ran down your cheek as you shook your head.
"My god Renji, what have you done to yourself." You said trying to figure out what to do. He smiled again as he lifted up his hand. It shook as he brushed your cheek.
He looked into your eyes. They were filled with happiness. He continued to brush your cheeks and looked at you as if trying to find the words.
"I love you." He finally spoke. His eyes slowly shut as he fell forward. You wrapped your arms around his waist trying to hold him up.
"Please no..." you cried as your voice cracked. You laid him down beside you. The setting sun hit his face showing every lifeless feature o his face. You cupped his cheek as tears slipped down your cheek.
"Hey, Renji. Wake up. Please you have to." You cried. You voice crying. His face was cold.
"Please Renji. Please...Just wake up." You continued to cry. You then noticed it was no use he wasn't getting up.
The tears streamed down faster as you held on to him tightly crying on his chest.
"Please. You can't go. Not like this. you can't go. you just can't. I love you...so you see. You can't die yet." The tear wouldn't stop.
All the sudden you heard a loud thump behind you. You quickly turned around to see Ichigo lying on the other side of you.
Your eyes widened in shock as you remembered your dream. It was becoming real.
"No..." You said to yourself as you quickly put both of your hands out. One over Renji and one over Ichigo. You shut your eyes and began to breathe slowly. A bright blue light appeared around your hands as you started to heal Ichigo and Renji.
"Haruna!" You heard Hanatarou yell but you just ignored him. “You not well enough to do that!" He yelled once more.
"Someone is coming." You heard Ganjyu say. You wouldn't budge. You felt your body getting weaker.
"Haruna..." Hanatarou said. You tried to look up at him but you couldn't. You body became to weak and you fell over Renji's body.
To Be continued...
