Title: The Chime of the Butterfly
Fandom: Bleach/Kingdom Hearts crossover
Characters/Pairings: Namine, Byakuya
Rating: PG
Warnings: None, really
Author Note: I want a butterfly...
Summary: "The plum blossoms are in bloom."
She hasn't seen him for a while. It's normal... she doesn't expect she'll ever see him again, really. The only things keeping her from believing it was all a dream are her pictures of him and the one done, not by her hand, but his, a funny looking character that she'd never expect from a serious-looking individual.
She still draws little pictures of him, while she works on restoring Sora and has those brief breaks in between, but somehow, she doesn't really think that it'll matter once she's done. There will be a point in time when she'll have to disappear too and maybe it's best if she doesn't bother him?
"Namine."
She drops the black crayon in her hand, like a child who's been caught doing something bad and looks up. The white room is dark, something she's never seen happen before. There's a strange doorway and what sounds like a soft bell tinkling in the doorway so white that she can see nothing beyond it.
First something black, a butterfly, she realizes, flutters out and hovers above the strange doorway when he steps into view, as proud and regal as the first time she met him.
She offers a genuine smile and stands up. "Welcome back."
He stands in the glowing doorway, silent for a moment, before he takes a small step forward. "The plum blossoms are in bloom."
She tilts her head imperceptibly. Those trees he hadn't been able to find around here? "That's good to hear. Are they pretty?"
"They are peaceful."
He still stands in that doorway and her frown turns back into a slight smile. "Did you want to show me?"
"Take it to mean what you will."
She's not quite sure what a plum blossom is, or what it looks like, but she crosses the room to join him anyway, watching the butterfly still fluttering above. "That would be nice, Byakuya."
He turns abruptly. "Don't fall behind."
She steps through just before the butterfly, hesitant. The doors of darkness are cold realms that don't compare with the welcoming warmth to this strange door. On instinct, she reaches out and grabs his hand. He urges her forward with a single look as the butterfly chimes softly and flutters around them and leads them down the unfamiliar path.
