R&R

Karakura 1863

A young boy at the age of 14 sits in a tiny cell inside a circus tent putting his toy monkey back together.

"Come" a deep voice says to young and old customers outside of the tent "Come and see the devils child" he says, bringing in the customers to see the child.

The young boy has a potato sack over his head that only has holes for his eyes. He wears raggedy shorts that are torn in some places. His midsection is bare and very dirty.

The deep voiced man, by the name of Kuso Amagasaki, enters the young boy's cage and yanks the potato sack right off the kids head, revealing his face. Many gasp.

A young Youroichi stands outside the cage, holding the bars and staring at the boys face. The left side of his face is beautiful while the right is a horrid mess.

The right has burn scars. She looks closer to see that the burn marks are just makeup! The young boy holds his toy monkey as he places tiny copper circles on the monkey's hands.

He brings them together, making the copper circles to make a Ting! Sound, he smiles a small, sad smile.

Kuso grabs the boy by his messy raven hair and begins to beat the poor boy. The crowd just laughs and throws in coins for the show. Youroichi stands there, a single tear falls from her eye.

The boy lets out a few yelps of pain but no tears. The crowd throws more coins and leaves the tent. Youroichi stays by the cage, still sad about the boy.

Only three people are left in the tent, Kuso, the boy, and Youroichi. Kuso collects the money off the cold cage floor and exits the cage, leaving the cage door open.

Youroichi slips inside and kneels down by the boy who is still recovering from the previous beating. The boy reaches for his monkey, his fingertips touching the monkeys head.

Youroichi reaches over him, at the same time startling him, and grabs the monkey for the poor boy. She hands the monkey to the boy and she stands up.

Youroichi holds her hand out for the boy. The beautiful boy stares at her hand then takes it. Youroichi helps him stand and they turn to leave the cage.

A blond man dressed in a black and white tux with a black cloak-like-cape on his shoulders wearing a black fedora on his head walks to them.

The children look up at him. The man smiles and puts his gloved finger to his lips in a quieting gesture.

He winks "Sup, the names Michel. What you see here will be a secret, kay?" the kids nod, he moves his finger away form his mouth and searches for a rope.

He finds one and looks at the kids once more. He does the silent gesture again and walks quietly behind Kuso as Kuso counts his coins. Michel holds the rope and tightens his grip on it as he prepares to attack

The kids watch in horror and anticipation. "What is he doing to do to?" the young boy asks with a very strong, beautiful voice. Youroichi looks at the boy "I don't know…"

Michel grins like a madman and quickly jumps on Kuso, making him drop his coins. The boy gasp as Youroichi looks away. Michel wraps the rope around Kuso's throat, choking him.

Kuso stays standing up, even though his air supply is low. Michel growls in frustration and places his feet on Kuso's upper back, he gets himself comfortable and pulls.

Kuso gasps for air then suddenly becomes still. Michel lifts his feet off of Kuso's back and hangs behind him, still choking him. Kuso falls backwards; Michel makes it slow as his feet touch the floor.

He slowly lays Kuso's dead body down and claps his gloved hands. Youroichi looks back at them and see's Kuso dead and Michel walking to them.

The boy stands in front of Youroichi protectively. Michel notices this and smiles "No need to stand there boy. My deed is done, and you two are free." He says, opening the cage.

They hear footsteps quickly getting closer. Michel frowns and tilts his hat to them "Later kiddies." And he runs away, his cape flapping in the wind.

The boy quickly grabs the potato sack and wipes the makeup off his face, showing his beautiful face all together. Youroichi quickly grabs his hand and his monkey and runs out of the cage.

Men run into the room and see Kuso on the ground. They watch the kids run away, one man yells after them "Murderers!"

Youroichi and the young boy run fast, past many carriages and small shops. They stop behind the very famous Très Belle Salle opera house.

Youroichi opens the secret window to the chapel inside of the opera house. The boy slips in and Youroichi closes the window. She looks around for anyone who saw what she did.

Finding no one, she quickly runs to the front of the opera house and runs all the way to the chapel to the boy looking around. The beautiful boy spots Youroichi and follows her.

Youroichi takes them to an underground river. The water looks deep and murky. Youroichi finds the boat she was looking for and climbs inside it, motioning for the boy to join her.

The boy gets into the boat. Youroichi grabs the paddle and rows them down the river. After about ten minuets of rowing in a maze of pillars and some staircases, they come to a gated cave.

It was the most beautiful thing the young boy has ever seen! Candles on fairly large candle holders stand in the water, shining brightly.

Furniture is placed in various places, along with a beautiful piano and a dark silver swan bed. Many mirrors line the wall closest to the river bank, some covered with curtains.

The gate opens when Youroichi presses a rock with the paddle. The gate opens wide enough to let the children enter. The boat floats to the river bank and Youroichi gets off, helping the boy off.

The boy looks around "This place is amazing!" he says, taking in the whole cave. Youroichi smiles "I'm glad you like it, It was my fathers, but sadly, he died and left this place to me since me and him knew where it was. Now it's yours."

The boys eyes widen "M-Mine? Why?" Youroichi smiles "Because I have no need for it and you need a shelter. I'll show you around." The boy nods.

Youroichi holds her hand out to him "Hi, I'm Youroichi Shihon and I'm a ballet student at Madame Guessels dance studio here at the Très Belle Salle opera house."

The boy takes her hand "Byakuya Kuchiki"
