'In life, more than in anything else, it isn't easy to end up alive.' – Roman Payne.

It was an accident.

I kicked the door in, storming into the empty house dressed in black from head to toe in broad daylight. I watched as the blue haired tool walked in pulling the black hoodie over his head and slipping the black and white skull mask over his face.

I did the same.

And so did the fiery red-head that walked in from behind me.

We were running up the stairs, feet thumping against the expensive carpet. And this time Blue in front of me kicked the door open to the big bedroom.

Uryu was sleeping, lying there peacefully in his bed, not expecting a thing.

It was perfect, just how we'd planned.

We were on either side of the bed in an instant.
A quick glance to Grimmjow and we grabbed him, all at once.

His eyes bulged open and he screamed. It turned out to be a gurgling and a cry as I slapped duct tape over his mouth, silencing him. We watched for a second as he squirmed and shook.

He was more scared than I had ever seen him before. I felt myself smirking as I took in the view.
He started convulsing now and I'd almost had it. I wanted to laugh so hard just at the thought of how he'd react to our little ministrations.

Renji grabbed the blindfold and started to tie it around Uryu's head.
The second before his eyes were covered; Uryu looked at me, eyes wide.

And all I could do was look back, not sure what to think.

We were quick. We had to be if we wanted no one to see us. Grimmjow ran out of the house, Uryu in his arms. Renji already outside as he popped the boot of the car we came here in open.
I followed behind. And was the very last one out of the house, to close the door, to get a sudden gut wrenching feeling.
It felt like a strike of lightening, how hard and fast Renji had slammed the boot shut after a blindfolded and taped up Uryu was in there.

Not even a minute had passed and Grimmjow was sitting in the front, Renji sitting comfortably legs spread out in the back seat and myself in the front passenger seat. I slipped the mask off my face and pulled the hoodie down, Grimmjow and Renji doing the same.

A few minutes of silence passed as Grimmjow drove, but the instant I saw that smirk on his face and remembering the look on Uryu's face when we 'kidnapped' him as a prank, made me start laughing so hard that I was almost pissing myself.

Grimmjow joined me, magnetic blue eyes squinting as he did so, a massive grin to his maniac laughing. The crazy red-head, Renji in the back was practically dying.
He had his arms draped around his stomach in an attempt to stop his stomach from exploding by the pressure of his hysterical laughter.

"Did ya see that fuckin' look on his face?" Grimmjow yelled, pushing a big hand through his crazy blue hair.

"If I could see it again, I would!" Renji continued his hysterics.

"He never looked so scared…ever!"
I yelled, enjoying the feeling of my laughter rumbling off my chest.

"I wonder how he's gonna react. Maybe crack the shit's wit' us," Grimmjow smiled.

"He can probably hear us now, ya think?" I questioned peering behind me, listening out for any muffled screams, a whimper or maybe even some movement. But I heard nothing.

The way he looked. Dead.

My gut done at least a hundred flips in that split second I saw him in my head. The way he looked at me before his eyes were blindfolded.

I opened my mouth without thinking,

"He was convulsing."

Renji's laughter stopped.

Grimmjow suddenly became silent.

"He…was?" Renji asked suddenly.

I looked back at him.

"You didn't see?" I asked watching as he fixed the navy and white bandana on his head.

"He was shakin' alright. But who cares? It's just a prank," Grimmjow kept his eyes on the road ahead.

"Yeah... He'll be a'right," I heard Renji say.

And the rest of the way to our hang out spot, we didn't speak a word.

We pulled up in front of the old warehouse. It was our little place to hang out since we were younger.

I remember the first time we'd found it. Uryu and I were ditching school, it being the first time for Uryu but I'd managed to persuade him to somehow.
We found this old warehouse and curiosity got the better of us. It was no longer in use. No one ever went there. I doubt anyone even knew about it. But we did. It was our spot.

Soon I'd gotten Renji to hang out with us there too. But when Grimmjow had found our hide out, we got into a fist fight. I didn't want Grimmjow, the 'bad boy' of the school with his bleached and blue coloured hair to find the one spot he didn't know about. He was a real jerk. Still is, but we all got used to it after a while. It was funny though. After our fight, we all happened to become mates, going to the warehouse, the four of us hanging out there nearly every day.

"Alright,"

Grimmjow snapped me out of my thoughts, my memories.

"Let's go check up on our little friend, shall we."

We all got out of the car and walked around to the boot. My eyes glued to the hood.
I felt weird. Like something was wrong. But I wanted to see Uryu. I wanted to see that he was alright, just like what Renji said.

The boot was pulled open by Renji and there Uryu was, lying there, arms by his sides. I half expected him to move around. Move an arm maybe, or fidget. But he wasn't moving at all.

I shot a glance at Renji. He looked just as confused as I'd felt.

I turned my head.

"Grimm," I started, looking at him.

"Take the blindfold off."

Grimmjow looked back at me and without a word, lifted Uryu's head up slightly.
He frowned and pulled the knot out of the cloth used as a blindfold. He pulled the cloth free from Uryu's face and my heart stopped.

Uryu's eyes were wide open.

He wasn't moving. He wasn't blinking, wasn't breathing.

I just stared at him, arms by my sides. I started at Uryu and that's when I knew he was dead.

"We killed him."

My head felt big and hot like all the blood in my body was rushing up to my brain.

And all I could do was just stand there and stare. I stared at our dead friend.

His eyes were lifeless. Like two cold hard boiled eggs.

Renji started backing away. He made a strange sound that I never heard from him before and he started throwing up.

Grimmjow looked shocked.

I felt sick.

My mind started racing.

Oh god.

Oh fuck he's dead.

He's fucking dead and it's all our fault.

All my fault.

Fuck, Ichigo!

I didn't notice how tight I was squeezing onto my sleeve, my body trembling.

It was all an accident. It was just an accident and we didn't mean for him to die.

I didn't mean it.

It's not your fault, Ichigo.

It's not.

It's not.

It's not god damn it!

It is. It's all my fault.

I started dry heaving. Crouched down, my whole body shook. I started spitting. Spitting on the ground and trying to get rid of the burning that was going up my throat. I wanted to throw up but nothing was coming out. Not even bile.

Grimmjow crouched down in front of me. He had his arms around me.

"Relax, Ichi. Jus' breathe. We need ta figure this shit out."

He was breathing hard.

I started crying. I shook my head from side to side so many times I lost count.

Grimmjow stood up and tried to pull me up with him. My knees hit the ground as I got out of my crouched position. I saw Renji in the corner of my eye. He was blurry but he had his head in his hands. And I think he was thinking the same thing as I was.

We fucked up.

Somehow I managed to calm down. Grimmjow tied the blindfold over Uryu's eyes so I wouldn't freak out if I saw them again.

Renji walked up beside the boot of the car and with shakey hands he grabbed a hold of Uryu's legs.
Grimmjow grabbed onto his arms and they both lifted him on three. I moved out of the way, watched as they took Uryu's limp lifeless body into the warehouse and they put him down onto the dusty concrete floor.

The three of us stood over his body.

I pushed a hand through my hair.

Breathe.

I looked at the watch on my wrist.

Time for school.

A/N What would you do if you accidently killed your friend? The prank occurred in the early hours before school for the boys, hence the reason Uryu was sleeping when he was 'kidnapped.'

So I'm curious, should I continue this? Please review and let me know what you think.
