41 Anniversary Preparations

The rain had fallen as if it was hailing cats and dogs, and the sky above had turned darker as if to signify a dark moment of significance, it was unusual as it was the middle of the day and yet it had begun darkening.

And near the stones upon the ground was a young child with tears in his eyes, his eyes gleamed with reflective light and his head was faced down to the ground as if he was in sorrow or despair.

Near the child was a woman's body laying on the stones, and around her was blood surrounded against the ground and her body.

And soon the child let out a cry of sorrow and desperation, "Mother... Wake up... Please I promise I won't complain anymore... Please... WAKE UP!!!"

In this cold and callous day, Ichigo had become frozen in place, he was angry, sad, and depressed. He was only a child, yet his mother passed away. In front of his eyes he couldn't protect her.

He was useless towards this situation he couldn't do anything at all.

"Ichigo, I-Chi-Go, Wake Up!"

"Hey wake up, man what are you doing!"

Soon Ichigo the man in question woke up and had his hands in front of his face, and one of his eyes opened, only to see a lion plushie in front of him, "wake up its morning already!"

"Kon, Just shut up I can't be assed with you anymore, anyway you know where Rukia is?"

"Yeah Ichigo she's in her wardrobe getting changed I think?"

Soon Rukia had come out and was changed waiting for Ichigo to get ready and head to school.

After a while he had changed his clothes and was ready to go to school, however his memories kept flashing back like flashbacks, and it was starting to make him feel angry and sorrow for some reason.

It seems his life in this world had undergone deep trauma when he was younger, and whenever he thought of it, He remembered a cold and rainy day with Blood upon the stones, it was like a mental block.

However he felt that soon this mental block would disappear, and that he would get over it soon.

Soon the two had made their way to school, and when he got there he felt happy for some unknown reason he didn't know why though.

Soon he had spotted Orihime and said, "Hi hows it going, Orihime" after that she turned around and said, "Ichigo!" With a smile.

However Orihime frowned after a bit, as Ichigo was acting more different than usual,

And her friend near her said, "Whsts he on? Ichigo was so friendly today completely different than what he normally is like, but when I think of it his smile is so handsome!"

"No the reason he's acting weird is because it's, June the 16th, it's something important to him and also if you have any unfinished business with him finish it today, he won't be in school tomorrow!"

Soon School had ended and the two headed back home, and his sisters and his dad had gotten everything ready for the visit tomorrow, this surprised Rukia and she became curious of what was happening.

"So Ichigo that looked like a lot of fun, why are you preparing so many things?"

"Well its something important.."

"Wait so your going to skip school tomorrow to go have a picnic or something!"

"Look Rukia... Can I have a day off from my Shinigami duties tomorrow?"

"What?... Take a day off.. Of course not!"

"Are you crazy... You've been acting weird all day today, what's wrong with you!"

"Well since you wanted to know so much I'll tell you, It's the anniversary tomorrow, of the day my mother died, no not that actually... it's the day my mother was Killed!!"
