Title: Fated Souls

Rating: T

DISCLAIMER: Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko Takahashi and Bleach belongs to Tite Kubo. Two respected mangaka! I do not own the characters in any way nor the story plot only the idea of this fanfiction!

Mizuki Tsukiyomi Notes: He-he, yeah hit me on the head! I know I shouldn't start a new story with the others pending an update but this one has been bugging me for months! Although it took a while with the beginning on how it should start so...that is why the wait was long.

This story is based from the very start of Bleach (oh the memories!). One of the best arcs (in my opinion) since most of it had a mix of humor, action, etc. So, it is mostly based on the manga though instead of the anime (although I might follow some things on the anime but not all of it!).

Kagome meets Ichigo but most of you will be wondering how Kagome ended up in Karakura Town...well that will be revealed in the next chapter.

Please enjoy! I tried my best coming up with a good beginning. Not one of my best but better than any crappy one, right? Well, thank you if you began reading it!

Chapter 1: The Mysterious Girl & The Strawberry

Blinking at the sight before her, she noticed shattered glass just around the corner with a wilted flower dropped dead yet held so much love. She looked up to see a girl with two ponytails floating a few inches off the floor looking at the disturbing noise ahead.

Tears slowly streamed down her face as she looked down at the wrecked bottle below her. Blue eyes blinked for the second time noticing teen boys skating back and forth while laughing their fun out. Walking slowly towards the pole the ghost girl was grabbing onto, she sneaked a peek at the four boys.

"Did they break your bottle?" she asked.

Quickly, the ghost girl wiped her head around to see the person talking to her. She wasn't the regular guy she used to see but a girl with blue eyes. Her hair was gathered up into a ponytail only letting her long ebony hair hang swiftly.

She sensed no evil around her; maybe she was a good person.

"T-They knocked it over," she stuttered her words out.

There was a moment of silence after she gave her words. She continued to stare off the strange girl who exactly knew she was a ghost. Her blue orbs gracefully changed view to see the boys continue their so-called 'fun'.

"Um…who are you?" the ghost girl asked, catching the stranger girl's attention.

She gave her a smile as a reply and stood up straight. Looking behind her shoulder and around her surroundings, she sighed: 'I have no other choice. He told me to live a normal life here. But…w-what if they manage to find me? Then what would I do!'

"Onee-san?" She looked down at the sound of the ghost girl's voice.

"Be right back," she smiled again. Walking off and towards the skater boys she noticed that all four were around her age…or physically anyways. "Excuse me."

It wasn't a question but a demand to get their attention. All four boys looked at the teen girl walking towards them. She wore skirt that went down to her knees and a spaghetti strapped shirt. All boys giggled at the sight that was coming before them.

"Hey boss," a boy with blond locks whispered to an older looking man with a mustache without any of them taking their eyes off what they called their 'piece-of-meat'. She stood really close to the shattered glass making the so-called 'boss' walked closer with a smile.

"Miss, it isn't safe standing near glass. You could cut yourself," he said with a cocky grin. "Why don't you come over here and we will protect you."

Her eyebrow crooked up: "Well, if you really want to protect me, then pick up after yourself."

"Huh?" he whispered.

"You stupid boys knocked over the bottle, didn't you?" she questioned seriously.

"Who is to say?" smirked the boss.

"Yeah! You tell her Li'l Toshi!" yelled one of the boys behind.

"The owner of this bottle," she replied back. "My little ghost friend over here told me all four of you were blind with the fun that one of you knocked over her bottle and it shattered."

"Hm, ha-ha, you talk to ghost Missy?" he was awfully close now. Her eyes opened a bit more the moment his hand touched her wrist. "Why don't you tell me your name, beautiful? No need to waste your time with 'ghost'. They don't even exist."

Narrowing down her eyes, she tried taking her arm back: "Let me go."

"Nah. Let's go show you how to have real fun instead of spending your time talking to worthless ghost like them," he gave her that cocky grin once again.

"Worthless ghost?" she whispered her repeat of his words. She jerked her arm back: "Let me go."

"Come on boss! Let's take her!" she heard another different guy yell.

"Let me go!" she shouted. Her eyes widened realizing she had jerked her arm away too hard. Her feet tripped back with a piece of glass and soon enough, all four guys watched as she fell on top of the glass.

A few pieces pierced her white skin as a small amount of blood began to stream down her arm and a few pieces had got into her skin on her legs. "B-Boss! S-She's hurt!" shouted the blonde.

Looking at her wounded arm and leg she sighed: 'Seriously. It's not like I've had worse. Then again,' she looked up at the panicked boys. 'I am a 'normal' girl so I have to act hurt.'

"Are you okay, onee-san?" she heard the ghost girl speak. The ghost girl looked up and soon a smile crept up onto her face seeing a familiar face walking towards her.

She nodded: "Yes." Standing up while playing the part of a weak girl, she sniffled: "Ouch, how can you let a girl cut her skin?"

"B-Boss! Do something!"

The mustache guy growled under his breath: "H-Hey! You pulled to hard and fell on your own! But that doesn't mean we still can't have fun so come with us!"

Her blue orbs soon saw his arm once again reaching towards her arm to grab her forcefully. She braced herself: 'I guess I have to fight back.'

Before she could react, the guy was soon meet with a shoe on his face along with a log leg connected to it. She looked up to see a very tall and lean teen boy with bright orange hair.

Her starring cut short as she saw him kick the so-called 'boss' down onto the ground and soon stomp onto his head: "All of you shut up!" he shouted, surprising everyone, even the ghost girl.

"All of you chumps look at that!" he pointed to the wounded girl. "Question one!" he pointed at the blonde: "You! Why is this girl bleeding and hurt?"

"Um…um…because she fell on top of the shattered glass," he was meet by his other foot kicking him down like the other one.

"Now, question two," his brown orbs narrowed down, "why is that broken glass there?"

"B-Because," another boy with a beanie began to stutter the answer: "we knocked over a bottle with a flower with our skateboard." He soon braced himself, expecting to be kicked the same but it never came.

The orange head stood straight: "And you know what that bottle was?"

"A-An offering?" he replied.

"Then you all four should apologize to the two girls!"

All four screamed in horror at the sound of his threatening tone and soon ran off while yelling their apology. Scratching the back of his head, he looked behind his shoulder to see unknown girl with black hair picking up the pieces of glass: "You know, you don't have to pick them up. It isn't your responsibility."

"I know," she replied. "But I am sure this nice ghost girl wouldn't appreciate seeing a sight of broken glass all around her offering right?"

He looked back up at the ghost girl smiling: "I'll bring you flowers tomorrow."

"Thanks," she smiled. "It's nice of you two helping a poor ghost like me."

The strange girl looked up: "A poor ghost? I don't think you are." She gave her a smile. "You all have a reason to be here. I treat all ghost equally."

The ghost girl returned the smile: "T-Thank you."

"You can see her." It wasn't a question but a fact he had said. She looked at him starring at her. "Who are you?"

"Well, that's a rude way to ask someone's name," she picked up the last piece of glass and threw it to the near garbage can.

"Um…," he scratched the back of his head again. "What's your name?"

She smiled again: "Kagome. Higurashi Kagome."

He nodded and looked down.

"May I have your name too?" she asked as she walked towards him. Her eyes blinked as she noticed a weird aura glowing around him. 'T-This guy…his reiatsu is the same as a-,' she was cut off by his answer.

"Ichigo. Kurosaki Ichigo."

MizukixTsukiyomi's Notes: There is chapter 1! Short, I know but that is the best way to end it for a first chapter hehe. Most of you will probably be wondering how Kagome ended in Karakura Town? Well, can any of you take a guess? Hopefully, it was a well liked chapter. And yes, Rukia will be appearing and EVERYONE else.

P.S.- I might change the title of this story. Any recommendations on a title?

Please tell me what you think!

Well, until next chapter! Thank you for reading!

Ja~ne!
