Bleach Story

Chapter Ten

"Hana!" I woke up to slight shaking. I opened my eyes and looked beside me and saw Kurage smiling as she floated in the air. I yawned and rubbed my eyes before smiling at her." Kurage. What are you doing here?" I asked." I couldn't wait to give you your gift so I came here to give it to you." She said. She handed me a small box." I was going to wait until you recovered it I thought that'd be too long. So I wanted to give it to your personally." She said. I smiled." Thanks Kurage." I opened the box and my smile widened. It was a little necklace with a green jellyfish on it." Aw~ It's so cute!" I said." Thank you. Really." I said, putting it on. She stopped me." Wait. What's this?" She asked, holding up the necklace my Captain gave me. I blushed and took it from her, hiding it in my kimono." Nothing." She gasped and took my plushie my Captain also gave me." And who's this?" She asked. I took it from her and hugged it tightly." N-Nothing!" She gasped and smiled." Your Captain likes you~!" I blushed even more." No he doesn't! L-leave me alone so I can sleep!" She laughed." Who knew you were such a Tsudere~!" She said before disappearing. I stared at the plushie before blushing." I'm not a Tsudere!" I muttered.

"Hey Hana!" Rangiku said, bursting through the room with Rukia." Hey guys. What's up?" I asked. Momo suddenly popped next to Rangiku." We were wondering if you wanted to go to the World of the Living with us. You know, as a girls night out." Momo said. I smiled." That sounds like fun." I said." Nanao And Nemu are joining us too. And a few others." Rangiku said. I smiled." That's fine with me. I guess I'll have to go get dressed." The girls smiled." We'll see you there." They said before leaving. I smiled. Now what should I wear?" Don't forget to wear something fancy~!" I blinked before chuckling at Rangiku. Well that answers my question. But what? I got it! I got up and made my way to see Nemu.

"I would love to make a dress for you." She said with her blank face. I smiled. I had asked her if she was good at sewing and I wanted her to make a black dress with cherry blossoms on it. She agreed." Thanks Nemu. I owe you one." I said. She nodded." I'll work on it right away." She said. I smiled." Thanks again Nemu."

After she made it, I flash stepped to my room. I looked at the dress in awe. It was so beautiful. Nemu did a beautiful job. I looked at the clock. The girls never said when we would hang out. Rangiku walked in and smiled at me." Hey girl!" She gasped." That dress is beautiful!" I smiled." Thanks. Nemu made it. I asked her to make it and she was right. She's really good at sewing." I explained. She smirked." I'm gonna have to ask her next time." She said." Once you get in your dress, I'll do your hair." I raised an eyebrow but smiled." Who are you setting me up with?" I asked. She frowned." Stop~! You'll spoil it~!" I giggled. I got my dress and walked to my bathroom. Once I was dressed, I walked out and showed her." You look cute!" She said. She sat me on my bed and sat behind me. She grabbed a brush and some elastic bands. She began to work her magic. After she was done, she handed me a mirror. I gasped." It's so beautiful! Rangiku! You're the best!" I said. She flipped her hair." I know." We both laughed.

I was in my dress with my beautiful hairstyle and heels. Let's just say, I can't walk in heels. I kept wobbling the entire time. Rangiku held my hand as she helped me walk to the park in the World of the Living." W-why am I here?" I asked. She smirked and put a finger to her lips." Don't worry about it~! Your date will be here shortly." She said. She flash stepped away, making me sweat drop. I sat down on the park bench, looking around. I sighed and looked down at my necklace that my Captain gave me. I started to play with it. I smiled slightly at the memory." Excuse me?" I looked up and saw a man with short wavy black hair. He had brown eyes. He wore a white button up shirt with black pants. His black pants had overall straps on them. He wore simple black shoes. I'll admit he was handsome but not as handsome as my Captain." H-h-hi." I said. He chuckles." No need to be shy. I'm Shūkurō Tsukishima." He said." I was wondering if you knew someone named Hana Yamamoto?" He asked." T-that's me." I said. He smiled." Good. I suppose you're my date his evening." He says. I didn't like this feeling." I understand if you don't trust me but I assure you nothing bad will happen to you. It doesn't have to be all romantic. We could just be friends if you wish." He says. I smiled slightly." Thank you. I don't mean to hurt your feelings it's just....well...I have this crush on someone....someone who's a higher rank than me..." I said. He smiles and held out his hand." How about we go to a cafe or something?" He offered." Sure." I took his hand and he helped me stand up from the bench. We went to a cafe and talked. It was nice. Not like romantic nice but a friendly nice. We chatted about random nonsense." So who's this someone you have a crush on?" He asked. I sighed and looked down at the necklace he gave me." Well, his name's Byakuya. He's so caring and loving yet he looks cold and distant. He's my Captain- I mean, my boss." I said. He smirked." I already know about you Shinigami's. Not to worry." My eyes widened." R-really?" He nodded." That's because, my dear, I work with Kūgo Ginjō." I froze. I knew who Kūgo Ginjō was. He fought Ichigo and made Ichigo badly injured. We've been trying to find a way to stop him for a few weeks.  I stared the male in front of me. He held a smug smirk." Now that I know you're one of them and that you have strong feelings for a Captain, my plan can begin." I glared at him before popping a candy in my mouth, turning into my Shinigami form. I flash stepped out the cafe. He followed me. He stood in front of me. He grabbed my neck and pushed me against the wall of an alley. I struggled to get out of his grip." Stop struggling. You're only going to be used as bait." He said. I froze when I felt something hit the side of my head. I heard him chuckle before I blacked out.
