Name: Fuyu Arashi [[Winter Storm]] Aliases/ Nicknames: Winter Age: appears 18 actually 200 Seat: Captain of Squad 5 Height: 6ft Weight: 170lbs Personality: Not one who likes to joke around. He is kind, caring and honest, but also fairly strict. He doesn't believe rules should be followed to the letter but does believe they are there for a reason and should not be broken unless under certain circumstances. Theme Song(s): Linkin Park - My December Physical Description: He is tall and lean. He has a fairly muscular build, his legs are much more muscular than his arms however. He has short white hair that is almost always worn in a messy style. His eyes are ice blue. Outfit Description: He does not wear the traditional Shinigami Robe. He wears a sleeveless dark blue shirt with a white robe type garment layered over top of it that covers his right arm [like the picture] the robe hangs down covering his left leg. This is actually his custom captain haori. His squad number is across the middle part of the robe that covers his leg. A Black Belt wraps around his waist holding his robe in place. He wears the regular shinigami pants underneath the haori, though they are the same dark blue as his sleeveless shirt.. He also wears the regular socks and shoes.
Zanpaku-to Name and Sealed Description: Touketsu Ookami [[Frozen Wolf]] A very thin and sharp dagger that is excellent for focusing power into one small point to increase the effect of a stab. The thin blade combined with its sharpness makes it excellent for finishing off a paralyzed opponent. Zanpaku-to Sword Type: Stiletto dagger Zanpaku-to Element: Ice Zanpaku-to Spirit: Wolf
Shikai: Released When released Fuyu's dagger disappears and his clothes begin to glow bright white. A bright flash that will blind anyone looking then occurs, instantly after a suit much like the picture is covering Fuyu. The differences being that the suit is white as opposed to black, and the lines/markings almost appear to look like ice. Shikai Abilities: The released form of Fuyu's Zanpaku-to gives him the ability to control a blue flame that is ice cold, known as a frozen flame. This can be solidified to Ice at Fuyu's will or be fluid and move like fire. It is capable of freezing anything it touches. It also gives him the ability to control Ice. However in Shikai this is limited to an area of 60 yards around him. It also makes it easier for him to channel his Reiatsu for Kidou. Shikai Attacks: Gyou [[Freeze]] - If the opponent is in range of Fuyu's Shikai [[60yards]] this attack raises spikes of ice out of the ground that pierce and freeze the opponents feet to the ground. Oshi [[Push]] - A pillar of ice comes out of the ground from in front of the opponent aimed straight for them. If it connects it hits with a large force and pushes the opponent back. Hosaki [[Flame Tips]] - The blue flames rush out of the ground towards the opponent with the tips solidified aimed to pierce the opponent in multiple places causing a good deal of damage. Garou [[Hungry Wolf]] - A bright blue wolf is summoned from the ice. The wolf is made entirely of Fuyu's reiatsu and can be used to channel other attacks, such as kidou, though. The wolf will relentlessly attack the opponent attempting to tear into their flesh, just as a hungry wolf would. Shikai Release Command: Tou [[Be Frozen Over]]
Bankai: The suit that was Fuyu's Shikai freezes over and shatters. The shards of ice spread out and cover a one mile radius, instantly tuning the entire area into a field of ice. Fuyu gains claws on both hands an gains increased senses like that of a wolf, his eyes also become more predator like. A long whip that appears to be ice appears in Fuyu's hand. The whip has the Frozen Flame at the end of it. Bankai Abilities: Within the area of Fuyu's Bankai he can initiate any of his attacks from any point. Not just from his body or near his body. The claws are extremely sharp and can freeze whatever they strike, the whip also contains the same ability. Inside the radius the power of his Kidou is also increased. Bankai Attacks: Gachigachi [[Frozen Solid]] - A more potent version of Gyou. In this version 5 pillars of ice are formed around the opponent so close to them that it traps them, and begins to freeze them. The 5 pillars are then crushed by a much larger pillar that also crushes the opponent. The 6th pillar is generally not summoned until the opponent is Frozen Solid, so that they are shattered along with the pillars. Heki [[Pierce]] - Long, sharp and thin rods of ice shoot out of the ground in a circle around the opponent aimed at piercing their abdomen. Garou - Hyounou[[Hungry Wolf - Ice Pack]] - A pack of bright blue wolves are summoned from the ice. The wolves are made entirely of Fuyu's reiatsu and can be used to channel other attacks, such as kidou, though. The wolves will relentlessly attack the opponent attempting to tear into their flesh, just as a hungry wolf would.

Skills: Kidou Master, Skilled in hand-to-hand combat, Shunpo Master, Telekinesis Martial-arts Style: Kuk Sool Won Bio: As a human he discovered that he had the ability to move things with his mind from a fairly young age, the age of 7. Once he grew a little older, 13, he decided to hone the ability and use it to help his family since they were not very good off with his father dying and his mother a wreck from working trying to pay the bills. He initially did small demonstrations for people who would pay him and they gradually evolved into more and more complicated and bigger demonstrations costing more for people to watch. By the time he was 15 his father had died, however he still did the demonstrations/shows to help his mother to pay the bills that had been left in the wake of his fathers death. By 16 he had been pulled to Vegas and made much more than he could ever need. But stayed in order to make money to help other children who had to go through what he did. He stayed in Vegas up until his death at 18. In the 2 years he was in Vegas he had made millions and given almost all of it away to help unfortunate children. At 18 he was killed by a crazed maniac who wanted the fame and fortune for himself, instead of someone he viewed as an idiot for giving the money away. The maniac tried many ways to kill Fuyu, most of which failed due to his Telekinesis. Because at that point in his life Fuyu was powerful enough to even stop bullets. In the end the maniac managed to slip some poison into a drink that Fuyu had. Fuyu suffered from the poison for days before he was finally killed by it.
Once Fuyu awakened in the Soul Society he wandered around, not knowing anyone in the strange place he was scared. After some time in Soul Society his Telekinesis began to resurface and he began to once again train it. He was soon noticed by the Gotei 13 and pulled into the Shinigami Academy. He exited the Academy one of the highest in his class in hand-to-hand combat. He was however the absolute top in kidou and second in shunpo. He decided to enter fifth squad due to his innate ability with Kidou as well as his telekinesis which he was once again training and aiming to master. Eventually he worked up the ranks if the fifth squad until he was the Lieutenant. His captain had taught him every kidou as well as helped him continue his shunpo and hand-to-hand combat training. Eventually the captain came to know that he would die soon. So doing the only honorable thing he could think of he pressed to have Fuyu take his spot as captain and then headed off to take out as many hollow as he could before he himself died.

 Personal Information Name: Kunikore Miura-Benoit Aliases/Nicknames: Inari, Kitsune, Kit, Kuni, Kore, Vixen, Psychic Illusionist Age: 23 Seat: Captain of the Gotei Gobantai (Squad 5) Height: 5'7" Weight: 107 lbs. Personality: Because most of Kunikore's young life was spent moving about between France and Japan, a wanderlust was born. Paired with her need to explore her surroundings, Kunikore is an outgoing observer, meaning that while she enjoys being around others in social settings, she also loves to watch people just as much. She is empathic towards those she cares tremendously for, going so far as to put aside her own wants and needs in order to tend to those in need of her assistance. Kunikore has an odd sense of humor, often sarcastic about the details of life occurring around her. However, once one gets past her polite and comedic exterior, deep beneath the surface lies a highly observant woman whom seems almost psychic in her ability to tune into the universe around her. She is always spot on in her ability to read people. Thus the creation of her nickname "Psychic Illusionist", an alias that attributes to her innate ability to understand everything around her and her defensive battle style. To balance with her wisdom, she is a a very curious and mischievous shinigami which also ties back to her other nicknames, "Inari, Kitsune, Kit, and Vixen". And finally, while a perfectionist, Kunikore has shown that she is a closet genius by zipping through the academy in record time to become a full-fledged shinigami.
Theme Song(s): Utada Hikaru ~ Teiku 5 & Utada ~ On and On Physical Description: Kunikore, as seen to the right, has a small frame. Agile and femininely muscular, this shinigami carries an otherworldly beauty, her pale skin, blood red hair, and pale eyes adding to her uniqueness. As for her silver orbs, they lighten and darken with her changing moods.
Bio: Kunikore is apart of the Benoit clan. A family of royalty, however, they are not so well known. Which is fine because they prefer their privacy, but their anonymous status is due to the fact that they are Death Gods from France. The Benoit clan Princess moved to Japan's Soul Society as a way of forming strong allying friendships with Japan's Soul Society. That was over three-hundred years ago. Since then, the daughter of the French Soul Society King and Queen, has settled down with her shinigami husband, giving life to a girl, Kunikore.
Now as for Kunikore's actual story, she has always been extremely intuitive and quick-learning, so as a very young girl she found herself taking lessons that would help her to become a valuable shinigami. These lessons started as soon as she could properly hold a sword, however, it wasn't until her fifteenth birthday that her parents decided to finally place her in the academy, where her already finely-tuned skills blossomed during her part at the shinigami academy. Training since birth, as she liked to call it, allowed Kunikore to graduate with some of the highest marks of her era. Now at age twenty-three, and a prodigy, the young Miura is ready to make a name for herself as the new Captain of Squad 5.

Shinigami Information Zanpakutō Name and Sealed Description: Bakushinchi and Brillez are a pair of simple blood red, Japanese swords that Kunikore prefers to keep strapped to her person at all times. No matter the situation. Zanpakutō Sword Type: Sealed State and Shikai: Katana, Bankai: Sai Zanpakutō Element: Unclassified, though fire seems to be the only element capable of activating Bakushinchi's explosive material. As for Brillez, the element for this Zanpakutō will remain unclassified as illusions do not fall to any element. Zanpakutō Spirit: Bakushinchi and Brillez are essentially one whole, split into two blades. However, to appear before their shinigami mistress in spirit form shows that they have two different minds of their own, both agreeing on the physical attributes of a fox demon. Bakushinchi, being the more quick to ignite of the the two, appears to Kunikore as an actual fox. Brillez, the intellectual illusionist, becomes a deceiving humanoid fox demon. Call Out Name: "Jihakka!" (Detonation) - Bakushinchi. "Chiratsuku!" (Dazzle) - Brillez.
Shikai: Though it appears to be a simple katana, Bakushinchi is made of highly flammable and explosive material that when Kunikore uses her spiritual energy or Kidō, it causes whatever has been struck with her blade, to explode. When in Shikai form, the blade steadies and slows the drain of Kunikore's spirit energy so that she can use more energy and Kidō to activate more hits of her blade. In addition, by swiping at empty space, Kunikore can have her sword release a powdered form of Bakushinchi's explosive and flammable material make-up, which she can then activate to explode.
As for Brillez, Shikai allows this Zanpakutō to create visual and audible illusions that dazzle Kunikore's opponent with their seeming sincerity. Though strong, creating these fantasies would drain her energy quickly if it weren't for Bakushinchi's opposite effect.
Bankai: Bakushinchi-Maru has all the qualities of its katana, and simply evolves into one of the two Sai seen to the left. In addition, all fire type of Kidō spells are amplified in power. So needless to say, Kunikore has made sure that she knows all fire type spells as well as learn to use her spirit energy to create her own.
Bankai for Brillez is the ability to merge - if willed - with Bakushinchi, forming a single Sai blade with the capabilities of both Zanpakutō.
A more powerful technique to her Bankai allows Kunikore to supposedly "fuse" with her Zanpakutō spirit, the trigger word, "Mélange". This allows her to gain fox ears like Brillez as well the tail, claws, and fangs of Bakushinchi. She appears to have become a fox demon like her Zanpakutō spirits. Of course, this is all a hallucination, as her illusions have become so much more powerful than when in Shikai. So where Kunikore could only create visual and audible illusions before, in Bankai, she can pull her victims into fantasies that affect all senses. The trances are so effective and powerful that they are quite literally incapable of being broken. This almost always leads to the defeat of Kunikore's opponent, either by death, serious injury, or unconsciousness. Her mood and mission depends on which reality of these she chooses.

Indolence of Sloth Name: Christine Robins Aliases/ Nicknames: On occasion, she's been called 'Chris', or 'Chrissy' but she likes to be called by her full name, not pet names. Age: She appears to be in her early 20's, and is still quite young when it comes to other souls, at a true age of 36. Seat: 5th Squad 3rd Seat Height: 5'5 Weight: 126 Personality: Christine is a very shallow person, with no cushioning to the phrase. Her goals are her goals, and her main priorities. She's selfish. When it comes to morals, she's severely lacking, and will go to any length to get what she wants. This including sex appeal among other things, due to her lack of respect to treasure anything. Self preservation comes before anything else, and it would not be surprising for her to flee a battle and allies, if would save her own life. Despite all the bad, Christine has one redeeming quality. She is strong willed, and persistent. She has a sharp wit that has allowed her to see through many bullshit escapades, and is the opposite of gullible.
Theme Song(s): Reverse This Curse, Escape the Fate. Physical Description: Christine has an athletic build, with fair muscles and strength. She's about average height, with auburn locks that falls down her shoulder. The tips of her hair take on an even redder glint, due to artificial coloring. Her eyes are a deep liquid bronze, and her skin is normally tan.
Zanpakuto Name and Sealed Description: Her normal Zanpacto is slightly shorter then average, and is lighter. It makes for great quick jabs and cuts. It rests easily on her side.
Spirit; Kotori
Zanpaku-to Sword Type: Wakizashi [Jappenease Short sword] Most Short sword's are about 2' in length. Zanpaku-to Element: Wind
Shikai: [Not yet Achieved]
Release Phrase: "Soar, Kotori!"
In a more then flashy and unnecessary show, the blade dissolves into feathers at the release phrase. These feathers swirl and re-assemble around her feet, destroying any foot wear in the process. When the light vanishes, Christine is clad in black footwear. It appears to be a nylon type of cloth, or sock, as it is black but slightly see through. The shoe wraps from her feet, all the way up to her knees. On the ankle area, is a decorative ornament made to look like a feather. The material is thin, accept for on her shins, where it thickens slightly and hardens into a sort of guard. The guard is a great surprise defense, as it cannot be seen underneath her long clothing.
Shikai Powers;
Christine's specialty is hand to hand, or rather, foot to hand. She loves to fight with her legs. This Shikai utilizes her Reitsu absorbed into the boots, to lighten her body mass by almost 20%. This doesn't down grade her strength by to much, while being able to jump a little higher, [about 6 inches] and maneuver more quickly. This enlightened state is a lethal combination to her acrobatic and flexible fighting style. Reitsu is layered around the fabric of the feet, to lubricate impact to a foe and to the ground she runs on.
Tsubasa baundo Winged Jump; When timed correctly, this can be used in two ways. A surge of Reitsu it stored up at the sole of the feet, and then released at once, like a spring. It catapults the user upward, for a much taller jump. Or, with the same property, it can be used when landing from the air. We're all aware it's hard to maneuver while airborne. As soon as Christine's feet touch the ground, she can release a surge of Reitsu to launch herself into the air again, in an angled direction, to avoid being pulverized by an attack she cannot move from in time.
Naiatsu handou Internal Pressure kick; Reitsu pools around her foot, instead of the shoe, in this attack. When her foot makes contact with something, the Reitsu is released internally, for a knock back effect. Basically a kick with an 'explosive' [more powerful] edge.
Bankai: [Not yet achieved]
Release phrase; "Elapse, become the envy of the winds, Kotori! "
The physical appearance and general skills of the leg armor do not change, but rather, a large amount of Reitsu uncaps. The release of this energy rips apart the bottom of her pants, up to her knees, exposing her legs and leg armor. The Reitsu leek can be seen, as a pinkish red aura around her feet and ankles. A layer of raw Reitsu is now in between her feet and the ground, and grants the Bankia's main ability.
Fuwa Shoukyo Friction Elimination; A curious and passive power, the shoes now function like a pair of roller blades. The Reitsu layer creates sliding friction from her feet in the ground, no matter the terrain. Using this style, she can 'slide' across the ground, running without lifting her feet off of the terrain. It boosts her speed, and opens her flexibility options. At top speed, she can slide at times close to Shunpo, but she does disappear to the line of vision, unless someone is completely inept at keeping pace with a fast opponent.
Tsubasa step Winged Step; This move works hand and hand with Fuwa Shoukyo, [above] Basically, a small burst of Reitsu released from the shoe, to act as a break or a push while sliding. It can help alter Christine’s movement in any direction, to act a safety net. The basic theme of amie’s spirit is evasive action, and this just acts as a safety precaution to help Christine move while sliding at such speeds. This is a small burst, and does not allow her to go airborne, ect ect.
Kyokudo Tsubasa baundo Extreme Winged Jump; Similar to it's root skill in every way, this ability is just double the force it had originally. In this heightened state, it can do one more thing. In a fashion similar to walking on air, a burst of Reitsu can be released while airborne, to propel the user in a certain direction, to avoid damage. Because it uses a large sum of Reitsu, this can only be done once every few minutes, to allow the Reitsu to regroup. This stops the user from being to have any 'flight' equivalent.'
Kyokudo Naiatsu handou Extreme internal Pressure Kick; The same skill as it’s root, a kick thrice as powerful as the original. This attack gains a deadly edge, for as the foot comes down, the enlightened state vanishes, and it contacts with full weight, speed, and strength. Contact is brutal, as this final stand style attack is not only capable of breaking bones, but sending it’s target flying off into the horizon. If it misses, it’s strike can shatter boulders, and leave large craters in the ground.

Skills: Flexible, and Acrobatic. Bio:
"I'm sure you're expecting to read some sob story. A little girl who just wanted to be loved, abusive parents, blah blah blah...Yeah, well, that's what we in the biz call 'justified.' I don't really have a good reason for my actions, or some tear wrenching, depressing life story.
I didn't know it at the time, but I was a spoiled brat. I still have trouble accepting that fact now. I was part of the in crowd all through high school, my parents let me get away with murder. An only child, I was awarded all the spoils. A matter of fact, you can tell a lot about a person by who their friends where. My friends dated Football stars. My friends spent hours in front of the mirror, seemingly never satisfied with what they saw. If my friends needed to lose some weight, they’d live off of gum for a week. My friends black mailed and bribed the geeks to do their work for them. I was just like my friends.
It seemed virginity was a curse, something that needed to be gotten rid of as soon as possible. No hot guy in his right mind wanted an inexperienced girl. That was what we lived by. The six month law, too. I got rid of my curse as soon as I could, gaining experience wherever I may. I’m proud to say I dated some of the sexiest men in that school. But I guess that’s all they where, all they ever would be. Trophies. Why didn’t that warm hot feeling last? It was love, to have that sensation, that lava flowing through your chest, whenever he walked by. So why did it have to fade, every time? Sometimes they got bored with me. Once they tried everything, they wanted to try everyone. Sometimes I got bored with them. It was all the same to me. I searched club after club, bar after bar, for that Mr. perfect. Where was he hiding?
I was fine with my way of life. I was on top of the world. So why was it, then, whenever I passed by those incredibly gawky couples, that I felt jealous? The awkward kisses, not even kisses, that made them flush like children, made me envious? Impossible. There was no way. I was not jealous of some…some virgin!
Was I?
I started getting thinner. I was growing self conscious. After high school, and into collage, friends started disappearing, one by one. I think one ended up in the hospital, wrist wounds. I did pay her a visit, even when she called me. I regret that, but why should I have? Miss Renee Moons, someone who hadn’t bothered to talk to me for two years? She was smart, she was to good for me. Ashley moved away. Kate’s boyfriend’s where becoming more and more possessive. Sashs just fell off the face of the earth. “Oh look, we’re not in the same classes anymore.” I went out a lot. Partied a lot. Got drunk a lot. Got thrown into a new guy’s arm every week. Sex became an ice breaker. At least I was being safe.
And then, I stopped feeling oh so sorry for my little self. I made this realization during one of my raves, watching the band play. It seemed that that was life; music. I got lost in it, found myself flowing to the rhythm. So what, if love was a lie invented by romance novels and movies? I couldn’t wallow in self pity about it, like some child throwing a tentra-tantrum. I had to grow a pair, and move on, move forward.
I used my bottom less hole of contacts to find myself an opening. My parents eagerly funded my instrumental lessons. I became a drummer, the heartbeat, of a pretty awesome band. We did a lot of shows. We never really became that famous, but it supported me. Life was awesome. Boo’s, drugs, sex, and music. Once again, I was on top of the world.
I met some awesome guys, but it seemed like “boyfriend” wasn’t even a term anymore. You where either sleeping with him, or you weren’t. I guess I started judging boyfriends by less and less of the evenings we had, or the dinners we went to, but by the pleasure factor. When your standards drop, so do the guys you date. I didn't care. Nothing I ever did seemed to last, especially men, so I enjoyed every second while it lasted.
My climax of power lasted through my early twenties. It was when I turned twenty four that things started turning down hill. Our little band was having issues. Drugs had never been a problem before, we where all on them. Some of us ate them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. At first I had my hooks, but like everything else I did, I grew bored with them after a while. Cocaine scared the living holy hell out of me, and I promised myself to never ever do it again if I lived. I got my kicks from Mrs. Mary Jane when I was stressed, and good ol' E when I wanted to have fun. That was about it. But our lead singer as going through some family issues, and ended up going on a real bad trip. He fell apart. I honestly don't know what happened to him. Maybe he died, maybe he went somewhere to get better, I just don't know. He told us about the rats, and the talking coffee mug, and that was the last I ever saw of him.
Bobby wanted the rest of us to pull together, and get over anything we where on. Good old Bobby. I miss him the most. We, the band, had a lot of fights over this. Naturally our lead singer, the Big H junkie, wasn't giving anything up soon. I tried to play the peacemaker. 'Guys, it's just about the music' But sadly, after three long years, we fell apart. They dropped like flies, just like my friends had. I still played gigs, went to clubs. But a part of my died with my band. God, I miss them. I had been going on tour, and was to embarrassed to go home to Mom and Dad and tell them about what had happened. So I played where I could, but was sloly finding out I didn't have enough to pay my rent, and also splurge for boo's and E. So I traded the only other thing I had to offer; My body. It bought me all kinds of things. I was experienced. Payed for a place to say, all the pills I could pop, and all the grass in the hills.
Things where picking up nicely, once more. But I found my standards had dropped a whole new degree. Had I really sunken so low? But then I realized, did I care? Did it matter? I had a roof over my head, parties to go to, and food in my stomach. Still, I couldn't shake the depression.
I died at a rave, an according place, I suppose. Almost ironic. I popped my smiley faces, but loss track through the night. I was so wasted. It almost didn't matter how hot my body was getting. I blamed it on the guy dancing next to me, who was wearing nothing but shorts. Couldn't complain about his bod, Mmmm Mmm! It seemed that when my overheating body slammed against the floor, no one seemed to care. But how many times had I seen that happen, and just keep dancing? I guess Karma finally caught up to me. Oh well. I just hope my parents got my Body. I owe them that much.
It wasn't long until a soul Reaper took care of me. A week, maybe? Time was frozen, the music never stopping, dancing never ebbing to any kind of halt. It was almost as if I was still alive. She promised me everything was going to be okay, I was going to a better place. I sincerely believed her. Was I really that stupid, after all that time?
Life was different, to say the least. I had a childish hope for things that couldn't be. Like I was going to change my ways. It was a huge culture shock. I was used to raves, parties, hard core music, alcohol, sex. The works. You could have imagined what it as like to end up in Soul Society, for a girl like me. I went through a long withdrawal period. I wasn't hungry anymore, it seemed, but I had some serious demons to deal with. I isolated myself from people. Dealed with an infinite amount of cold sweats and flashes, emotional mood swings that would give any shrink whiplash, and sob fests. I hid away in places. I was a complete and utter mess. Some better life I was getting.
I met him that night. It was cold. I was sobbing out near the beach. It seemed I finally had gotten over drugs, but my emotional history was getting to me. I was thinking about every guy I had been with, every show I played. In the state I was in, no wonder little things got to me so bad. Can't say any of that bothers me now. A soft, warm blanket was thrown over my shoulders. He was tan, dark hairs and eyes. Muscular, strong. "We've gotten your type before." He had said, and just like that, I knew I wasn't alone. I wasn't the only druggie in this sorry state. He brought me to his home, made me tea. Consoled me. And why? He'd seen the same things. Oh, the stories he had. I finally felt like I wasn't alone anymore, in this cold, god forsaken after life. I could talk to him for hours about my escapades, and he didn't judge me. I actually held off sleeping with him for an entire year. Quiet an accomplishment. I truly felt like there was hope for this love concept. Maybe it wasn't all bullshit.
I felt security in his arms, knowing he loved something other then what I had to sexually offer him. I wondered forever why he had taken me in, and was grateful all the same.
The scar he left was the deepest.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. In my right frame of mind, I wouldn't have let him get in so deep. I wouldn't have let anyone in. I was weak from my misery, and my loneliness. It was one of the happiest days of my life, for I had been accepted into the Shinagami academy. It was also the anniversary of the day he saved me. I was going to make something of myself, finally. I came home early, ready to spread the news. I wanted surprise him. I bought this awesome little outfit it w- Never mind. Anyways, I was about to get all spruced up, when I heard the doorknob start to open. Well, he was home early. Oh, maybe he was planning a surprise too! I had thought. Squeamish, I sneaked into his, I mean our, bedroom.
I heard laughter. His. But it wasn't right. I peaked through the crack, and god it was like looking into a mirror of me two years ago. A real ******** slap in the face. There was my man, mine! Flirting with two bimbo's that where all over him. He was high, maybe drunk, on something. I couldn't tell you what. I won't lie, either. I couldn't suppress the hot tears. He had lied. So, so many times. Here I was, trying to escape that world, trying to be clean. Trying to start new, like he promised. What a hypocritical a*****e. I left, to ashamed to even look at him, at me. I got a few changes of clothes, and left out his window. That's what I get, though. I guess I always sort of knew. I just never wanted to believe it.
I closed off, then. I made a promise. It wasn't the first time I'd been used, no. But I had just fallen right into that one. I told myself to be strong, to never trust a man with any kind of emotion again. I would not be used any longer. I would be the user. I left for the Shinagami training academy with the clothes on my back, nothing more, nothing less. I had learned a powerful lesson, but I suppose I had to feel that pain to learn it. Otherwise, I might still be susceptible. I have absolutely no regrets.
