Toma sighed.
Under neath the summer trees,
Beauty was nothing.
All Toma could think was that day,
Years ago,
When her world was turned upside down
By one person.
A shinigami who later
turned against the soul society.
Kaname Tousen.

75 years earlier...

A white haired teenager walked down the road. Her yakuta was dirty and stained. She carried a bag of food scraps from that days scrounging.
She ran up to a shack. She pushed the rag door aside.
"Rukia! Renji!" Toma yelled.
Nobody was there.
"That's strange!" Toma said, scratching her head, "They're usually here..."
Then she saw the piece of paper.
Toma picked it up.

Dear Toma...
If you are reading this, then it will be a goodbye.
Me and Renji have entered the Shino Academy. We plan to become soul reapers.
Both me and renji have proven to have powers, which can help us lead us to a better life.
Toma, I can't take care of you anymore...
Please forgive me.
Rukia

Toma dropped the note. Tears swelled in her eyes. A sob escaped her mouth.
"Why..." she said. "Rukia. Renji."
She fell to her knees.
