A Crazy Little Thing We Call Love
Just one thing doesn't change
That dream I painted
How did I appear as I am now
In my young eyes back then
Hey, look up at it,
it's such a vast night sky
So that soon, so that you understand
You will shine at your best soon so hurry
Look for the FULL MOON
tatta hitotsu kawaranai mono
zutto egaiteta yume
ima no jibun wa dou utsuru no?
ano koro no chiisana hitomi ni
nee miagete
konna ni hiroi yozora dakara
sou sugu ni wakaru you ni
sei-ippai kagayaku kara hayaku

Rukia panted as she jerked the door of the attic open. She briefly wondered if she should look for this elusive blue trunk, she had never seen it before.
Footsteps echoed through the fourth floor of the house, then the attic door flew open. Tatsuki, Momo, and Inoue stepped in. "Rukia," Tatsuki started. "What's going on? Where were you? What do you have a lead on?" Rukia wasn't listening, though. Instead, she was running around the attic, throwing random things about the room; books, scarves, a lamp, etc.
"Tatsuki!" Rukia yelled suddenly, "Did you see a trunk around here when we were cleaning out the attic a couple weeks ago? Its blue, with a gold lock." Tatsuki gave her an incredulous look. "Yes, I did see something like that, its in the basement, but that doesn't answer my-"
"Thanks!" Rukia yelled, sprinting out of the room and to the basement.
Inoue, Momo, and Tatsuki groaned as they followed her out.
Rukia stopped in front of the trunk. It looked old; very old.
She carefully pulled up the top of the trunk and smiled. It was open.
She let go of the breath she never realized she was holding as she pulled out what looked like a letter. She opened it carefully, ignoring her friends' sudden questions.
An address.
With a note.
Odd. Rukia tilted her head to the side. Who put this here?
Kyoto, Japan
5094 Arashi Street
Your road ends here.
Things you wondered even AFTER you lost your memories, will be clear.
Just ask the person here.
And remember,
Love will always find a way.
Because,
To Live is to Love,
and to Love is to Live.
Love,
B. Kuchiki
M. Kuchiki
H. Kuchiki
Rukia blinked.
Love? Love who?
Then, she smiled. She knew who. But how did the letter...?
Rukia shook her head, choosing not to answer these qustions.
It didn't matter. Everything would be clear.
Everything would be all right.
According to this note, everything would be okay.
...Right?
"Don't you think you're a little too old for bedtime stories, Rukia? I mean, you're almost nine, shouldn't you..."
"Please? Nee-chan, this is my last night of being eight! Do it as an early birthday wish! Please?" Rukia whined. Hisana sighed. There was no pleasing her. The older girl turned to her stepbrother. "Do you know any good stories?"
Byakuya thought. He never was the one to tell stories of knights and dragons, princes and princesses. But he could try.
"There was the one my mother used to tell Mitsuki and I." Hisana smiled in understanding. "Could you...?"
Byakuya groaned softly. "Fine." He inched closer to Rukia, and forced out what Hisana supposed was a smile. Maybe. "Okay... This story is called Joukaihime" He really wasn't used to this, she could tell by his eyes, and by the way he stuttered.
"Uh... Long ago, dragons lived in the sky, Where there was a dragon princess of heaven, who one day, fell in love with a mortal man. But it was a forbidden romance. They tried to be together, but couldn't. The princess' father killed the man, making the princess very sad. In her grief, the dragon princess caused snow to fall, to cover all the earth in white. And the king, seeing his daughter's distress, brought the human back to life. They lived happily ever after, making other seasons like Spring and Summer come alive."
Hisana shook her head. "That was horrible, Bya-kun! You rushed through the entire thing! I could barely understand the concept of the story!"
Rukia offered a smile. "Its okay, Nii-sama. I thought it was a pretty good story. But it reminded me a lot of a story Mitsuki-nee read to me. She called it Yukihime."
Byakuya's face softened.
How could he forget?
"Dammit! How could this still be happening?" Rukia screamed.
"Kuchiki-san? Is something the matter?" A voice asked. Rukia took time away from ripping her hair out long enough to find she was in her classroom. And everyone was staring at her. Friends, classmates, Professor Sasoru...
"Crap." Rukia muttered darkly.
Why did this happen during class of all times?
"Um... nothing!" She said quickly. The professor quirked a brow. "Just... Its just... I can't figure out this problem! Haha... heh..." She laughed awkwardly, then sat back down. The stares died down, and Rukia bit her lip.
This was gonna be a long day...
[Later that night; 5:23 PM]
Inoue held her breath. This was it! She couldn't believe it! She had waited for weeks to get this letter, and now she would know.
If she was going to Karazuki University, or not.
Karazuki was the best medic school in the country, and Inoue had studied her ass off since third grade just to get a scholarship to the school. The auburn haired teen crossed her fingers, and wordlessly opened the letter.
...And then she screamed.
"YES! YES! YAHOOOO!" Inoue screamed as she jumped up and down in pure euphoria.
Tatsuki, Momo, and Rukia all ran in, the shortest of the three clutching a metal baseball bat. "What's going on here?" The Kuchiki girl yelled, to be heard over Inoue's constant squealing.
"I have great news!" the auburn teen gasped, smiling almost creepily. "What is it?" Tatsuki asked, smiling at her friend while jerking the bat away from Rukia's still shaking hands. "Stop," The spiky-haired girl mouthed, giving Rukia a warning look.
"I got accepted," Inoue took a deep breath, "Into Karazuki University! I'm goin' to Kyoto!"
Her three friends immediately enveloped her in hugs.
"That's so great!" Momo squealed.
"It is!" Rukia said, smiling. Then, she stopped, and broke her hug from Inoue. "But..."
"But what?" Inoue asked, jumping up and down.
Rukia was quiet for a minute. "...What about Ishida?"
Inoue stopped laughing.
[Ichigo's apartment; 5:45 PM]
"WHY THE HELL WERE YOU SO LATE? AS A MATTER OF FACT, WHY ARE YOU ON THE COUCH INSTEAD OF THE GUESTROOM?" Ichigo screamed at Senna.
The spiky-haired girl just streched, and sighed. "I got home last night around midnight. The reason why I was so late was because I had to wait for the roads to unblock from the storm. And, if you're wondering why I'm on the couch, I didn't want to disturb you and your little girlfriend."
Ichigo turned red. "She isn't my girlfriend!"
Senna smirked. "Sure, cuz, I'll believe that."
And as Ichigo left, Senna whispered one more thing...
"Love... It makes people go crazy." She sighed, lying down on the couch.
