Chapter 1: Meet the Substitute Soul Reaper, Ichigo Kurosaki!

Kagome wearily adjusted the strap on her shoulder as she waited for the train. The well had been sealed over a month ago and her mother thought seeing her cousin might do some good. Tch, as if. Her cousin was about as nerdy as you can get. Not to mention he sews. No man in his right mind sews! She swears he’s gay. He might’ve changed in the 3 years she hasn’t seen him but who knows. They’re only cousins through their dads.

Since no one else was in the empty station, she pulled out a photo album. It had pictures of everybody in the Sengoku Jidai. Tears welled up in her eyes but she hastily rubbed them away. The last picture of the whole group had Kagome in the middle wearing blue jeans and a green t-shirt. Sango had her arm around Kagome’s shoulders while wearing her usual attire. Kilala was on her other shoulder. Miroku was on the other side of Kagome with his arm slung on her shoulders also. Shippo stared up at the camera from Kagome’s arms, lollipop in hand. Inuyasha stood in the background behind Miroku and glared at the camera with his arms crossed. She laughed at the memory. He thought the camera would suck your soul out if it caught you.

She wasn’t wearing her uniform in half the pictures. Regular clothes, she found out, helped a lot better when running or fighting. Not to mention it cost too much to keep replacing it after every battle. She now detested wearing skirts and dresses. It reminded her to much of the past. Three days after the well was sealed, she begged her mom to transfer her to another school because of the uniform. She quickly changed her mind the next day when she found out what her mother had down. She was sending her to her cousin’s school and no matter how much begging, she wouldn’t change her mind. So here she was with bag in hand and on her way to Karakura town. Uryuu said he would pick her up. Mom sent the rest of her stuff already. She put the album back in her bag.

Sighing as she readjusting the strap again, she waited till the train pulled to a stop. Stepping in the nearly deserted train, she sat down closest to the door. She observed the people around her. The only two on was a male and a female. The female had black hair styled in a weird way with purple eyes. She was petite compared to the orange-haired male seated next to her. He had brown eyes that glared at everything in site. They both wore gray uniforms but their auras felt like nothing she felt before. The girl was whispering something to her companion really fast before the train jolted to the side, causing Kagome to fall forward on her face.

She picked herself up before a piercing scream sounded out through the air. Clutching her head to block the noise, she missed the boy jumping up and the girl pushing him. Kagome finally opened her eyes and gasped. In front of her was a giant monster with a white mask and red eyes. There was a gaping hole in its chest and it oddly resembled a praying mantis.

“Oi, Hollow! Come and get it!” Kagome jerked her head and her eyes widened. The boy was wearing a set of black hakama and haori with a white under-shirt. What surprised her most was the giant black blade balanced on the boy’s shoulder. He lunged forward and then swung up in an arc, slicing through the monster’s mask, causing it to disappear. He smirked before the girl nudged him and pointed towards her way.

“I think she can see you, Ichigo,” she whispered. Carrot-top, now dubbed Ichigo, looked her way and started to walk towards her.

“Hey, you all right?” he asked. Kagome stayed silently as she relived the past. She broke down crying as Inuyasha flashed through her mind. Ichigo started to freak out. The train had by know been fixed and was already pulling up at the station. Uryuu quickly rushed in and saw his cousin crying. He bent down and rubbed soothing circles on her back.

“Kurosaki, what did you do to her?” he asked.

“I didn’t do nothing but ask her if she was alright so don’t blame this on me, Ishida,” he replied. He quickly slipped back into his body. Uryuu had calmed down the girl and led her off the train. He had her tucked under his arm and her bag over his shoulder.

“What was that about?” the girl asked.

“I have no idea, Rukia,” he said.

So how was that for the beginning? Remember to vote and review! Ideas and comments are appreciated but flamers will be used for smores!
