IchiRuki

This is a translation. The original lyrics are in Japanese. "Koyoi, Tsuki ga Miezutomo" (Tonight, even if te can't see the moon) da Porno Graffiti.


Tonight, where does the moon shine on? From the sky covered in thick clouds
Tonight, who are te embraced by? Are te going to cry alone in the rain?
(Remember that the rain symbolizes pain for both Ichigo & Rukia, in FTB they are separated -alone-)

If you're ashamed of yourself for thinking that te can share everything and having anticipated so

Your hand that I held...

Will we lose it someday?
I want to protect te and that disappearing smile
The ringing voice that calls me dries out
Even if it gets...

The plot is non-canon. The story opens in Karakura Town. A Shinigami was murdered, and all other Shinigami who were sent to investigate were murdered as well. Rukia is assigned to the mission, and she drags Ichigo along. Meanwhile, an incident known as the Red Moon (a literal coloring of the moon da a blood red hue) occurs. The Sixth Division Shinigami find out that it is protected da a force field. As they try to break it, a man interferes. He easily overpowers them.
