Hai everyone!

Your favorite Mistress of the Squad Six Captain here!

I cannot say how amazing it is to finally get the courage to post this story!

I wrote this last year; It started as a daydream and wouldn't leave me alone until I wrote it out. It's about 50 chapter long, (I know...but good news!), the chapters are all different lengths, some long some short. It goes based off point of views...so, each chapter is a new point of view but I'll make it completely clear at the top of each chapter. I am EXTREMELY nervous about how this story will be received because I am not a fan of actual characters and original characters but...this OC is me...if I existed in the Soul Society.

Please read and review because it makes me feel good and I like to hear what people think!

I'm going to post a few chapters to start just to get you hooked...then about a chapter a day...so for the next roughly 2 months...your mine...HAHAHA!

Seriously, please enjoy ^_^ I have worked extremely hard on this one...

Oh, and I do NOT own Bleach or any of its character I only own my character/s that were birthed from my imagination.

WARNING: Violence, Swearing, VAGUE nudity, insinuations of sex

For your information and my sanity: This story is dedicated to my Uncle Mot (Tom), who left this existence for the Soul Society shortly before I wrote this. I love you and I miss you...I can only hope that such a place as the Soul Society awaits us when we pass on. I know your smiling down on me and I know your proud... :'-)

I give you...Fire and Ice... -bow-


My name is Hotaru.

I was one of the most powerful shinigami in all the Seretei.

That was until today...

As I lay dying...

I hear someone screaming my name...

As my enemy's sword...

Pierces my throat...
