Prolog
Kaien's POVThe rain pounded against my body as I raced through the trees. The numbing cold began to creep across my skin but I didn't feel it. I didn't feel the limbs and needles of trees whipping across my face and body. I felt nothing but the blood pumping in my ears and the adrenaline rushing through my system. I had left Captain Ukitake behind long ago his illness preventing him from following properly tonight. Of all nights I had heard him curse before falling into a fitful coughing fits. Go on quickly, he had ordered waving me away as others from our squad attended to him quickly. I obeyed without a single thought.
I had to get to Rukia before Miyako did. I had to stop Miyako from hurting Rukia. The girl was to young, to inexperienced to die so soon. Rukia please wait, I'll be there soon.
"M-Miyako!" I heard Rukia's scream and felt my blood freeze. I'd never heard such horror, sheer terror from Rukia before. I feared that Miyako had killed the girl and as I broke through the trees into a small clearing I stopped dead.
I stared at Rukia's tiny frightened frame shaking in the rain. Her beautiful sword sticking from a woman's body. I walked slowly towards them, my steps light unbelieving. Rukia had one arm around the woman's back crying into her dear friend's shoulder. The other hand held the hilt of her sword, and it was dripping with blood. I saw the woman's lips moving and her hand slid down from Rukia's back. Rukia's tears increased as the woman died in her arms.
My heart sank and I dropped to my knees besides my wife. Rukia looked at me her eyes filled with horror as the rain mixed with the blood on her face. I saw the grief, and terror shinning through her violet eyes.
"Vice C-Captain I-I…" her voice choked on the words she wanted to speak and I managed somehow to grin at her.
"Don't worry Rukia, you did the right thing. Miyako was able to leave her heart with you." I said softly carefully pulling her away from my wife's corpse. I laid her down and pulled the sword from her stomach. Dropping Rukia's sword to the ground I bent over Miyako's body.
"I'm sorry my dear Miyako." I whispered smoothing her black hair from her beautiful still face. She looked pale under the rain but she was like a sleeping angel. I could hear Rukia's sobs over the rain I felt the need to comfort her but I couldn't move away from my beautiful wife. I stared at the face and felt guilt build in my gut. Miyako…
"I'm sorry I wasn't here to save you from the hollow." I straightened her uniform a little better; she always hated to have a messy uniform. I heard the leaves rustle around me but didn't acknowledge the man that stepped out, breathless.
"K-Kaien?" I ignored my captain's voice and motioned towards Rukia. He went to the young girl and I flinched when she cried out for forgiveness from me. Her voice raised the hairs on my neck and sent my heart hammering. Every instinct told me to go to her, but I did not move. I closed my eyes trying to block out her cries but they were still there. They would always be there. Rukia had killed my wife.
