Samurai Champloo Fan-Fiction: Follow Your Heart

This is a story I had posted a long time ago (11 years to be exact.) Whew, time flies. I had recently done some updates to fix some grammatical mistakes and added a few more dialogue bits in a couple of scenes.

~ Snippet ~

Stars blazed in the night sky above him. It became dark quickly, and it's about time for him to find a place to crash for the night. A disheveled man searched for a place to settle along the road, but there was only a rundown shack nearby. The wood is freaking warped at odd angles, and the roof collapsed some many years ago that its wooden planks splintered across the dirt floor. Not exactly a good place to stay, but it looked like it was the best place to sleep for the time being.

He took one last look around before he started for the shack, but quickly stopped when he noticed a split in the road not too far away from him. He had to squint his eyes to get a better look at the split and that's when he realized that he finally came to the fork that he has been looking for.

"Jeez, about fucking time." The wild-haired man said out loud.

He turned away from the beaten up shack to the fork in the road. The wild-haired man has been traveling day in and day out, trying to find this landmark for who knows how long. His travels abroad have been very peaceful, yet relaxing. Although, his traveling brought unwanted memories of a certain someone that made his travels not so nice and quiet a long while ago.

"Why am I thinking about that damn broad? She is such a pain in the fucking ass." The wild-haired man said out loud as he came to the split.

He noticed in the dark of night a sign post. How he wished there was a way for him to see where each dirt road led. He sighed heavily as he slumped forwards in exhaustion but tried his damnest to read the words. He strained his eyes to read the names on the signs, but it was no use when there was no moon hanging in the sky. It's a moonless night for the wild-haired man and he wished there was some sort of light to illuminate his way in the night. But atlas, there isn't, and he has to live with it.

He sighed heavily again in frustration and was about to head off to the left. He pauses his step to direct his gaze to look off to the right. There in the distance are faint lights of a decent sized village where he can hear festive music playing from where he's standing. He was reluctant to go in that direction because he didn't want to deal with a crowded town and noisy kids. Just the sound of the music is irritating him. His feet did the thinking and steered off to the left where there is a never ending darkness and large clump of trees.

"Well, it looks like there won't be no soft bed and pretty women tonight. Oh, well." The wild-haired man said out loud, then begun his trek into the nothingness ahead of him.

As his feet moved, the wild-haired man couldn't help but look back in the direction where the happy sounding music was playing. Something is telling him he should go that way, but he is having a hard time forcing himself to go toward the lights. He stood at the crossroads, unsure of which way to go.

Work-In-Progress: Bleach Fan-Fiction

Hello, everyone.

I hope you are all doing well and staying safe.

It's been a minute since I've posted anything on here. With the complications with FF.net for the last month or so, notifications for chapter updates are not reaching my readers. So, I'm taking more initiative in getting the word out of my current project.

I've had this fan fiction out there for a while now, since 2014, really, but I have been undergoing chapter rewrites for the last year. It's quite an undertaking and is taking me longer than it should be, mostly because I've been going around multiple chapters.

Chapters 1 through 10 are complete. I have the link below.

Also, there are many characters involved in this story of mine. My OC Hiromi, Grimmjow, Coyote Starrk, Yumichika, and Ikkaku are the main characters.

In-Progress: IT(2017) Fan-Fiction

Hello, I’m BleachedSamurai, or if you like, you can call me Sarah.

I’m 32 and still pretty new too blogging, as I’ve never really gotten into it at first. I guess, I’m reconsidering to gain more online presence and traffic than on one site alone. I’m not sure if this is the right approach, but it’s worth a shot, right?

So, anyway, I’m working on this baby since July of 2019. I actually had it sitting on my drive for a long while, dare say October 2018. That is until I decided to share what I had so far, which at that point was the first chapter and a snippet. Now, I’m thirty-six chapters in, with two shorts included, and only two more to go. Well, three left, if I include the epilogue.

Anyway, I provided a section from the Snippet Chapter below the details to enjoy.

Title: Safe

Genre: Hurt/Comfort, Drama

Characters: OC, IT/Pennywise, The Losers Club, Henry Bowers, Belch, and Victor - basically all characters are involved.

Summary: From being bullied by her peers and abused by her parents, thirteen-year-old Ruth finds haven and comfort from an unlikely source whom everyone fears. With the psychotic Pennywise the Dancing Clown, how will he handle a child who lives their nightmares daily and is devoid of life? Can someone from The Losers Club help Ruth? Or will an unlikely friend guide her? AU 2017 Film Based.

                                               ~ Snippet ~ 

She laid there in the darkness, waiting for sleep. Ruth stared at the fabric of the Victorian couch, counting the threads. She made it to seven when a strangled sob leaves her lips. Ruth grimaces, tears streaming from her eyes now. The feel of her father's hand unpleasantly burned on her skin still. She tucked a hand in between her legs and squeezed her thighs. Maybe she can rub away the horrid touch. No, there is no soothing it away. Another sob quakes within her lungs and sniffles. Why?

Ruth curls, bending herself to fit on the narrow couch. Her tears continue to fall. As she settled in a fetal position and hope for sleep to come, Ruth felt some water on her cheek. She gasps, snapping her eyes to the rotted ceiling. In the back of her mind, Ruth thought maybe Pennywise the Clown was watching from above, drooling. No, she is not that lucky. Even if he were, Pennywise wouldn't scare her. Probably not ever, Ruth is not afraid of the clown.

Ruth felt the drop again. She scans the ceiling, there's a leak. Another fell on her forehead, which Ruth groans. She hugged close, covering herself with an arm. Why?

She laid in silence. The only exception is rolling thunder that shook the house and the padding of light rain. Ruth didn't mind it, though. The ambiance of an approaching storm and the noises of the settling house can lull her to sleep. With a rumble was a small creak. Ruth paid no mind to the sound as it could be the wind blowing a door open since she felt a breeze. No, it was not the wind.

Pennywise slowly stalked out from the shadows, watching Ruth intently. His eyes glowed gold as he silently approached like a snake in the grass. He grinned wildly with glee at the sight of the unaware Ruth lying awake still. As he came closer, the sounds of weeping filled his ears. Pennywise stalls, listening to the sobs and watching the young girl violently shake. She moves. Her arms cover her head, shielding herself from the constant drip of rainwater leaking above. That's not the cause of her distress, though. He pressed forward, silkily sliding across the floor and hunkers low feet away from his prey. He sniffs the air. An unfamiliar scent rafts his nostrils. Pennywise doesn't smell fear, but a musky male's cologne lingering on the child's body. His features contort into confusion. He slowly stood to tower over the small and fragile girl. Pennywise then notices the red blotches on her arms and legs, along with a few bruises.

A roll of thunder rumbles and a flash of lightning illuminated the dark space. Pennywise caught a glimpse of the extent of the markings. Not only does Ruth have large red welts and bruises, adorning her exposed thighs are scratches. There is also a bite mark. Pennywise's chest constricts, his golden eyes snap at Ruth shielding herself.

In his mind, he can hear Ruth screaming, "Get away from me! No! Getaway! Get off me, get off!"

Pennywise blinks, his eyes glowing brighter. "No! Stop, please! Get off!"

A frown adorned his ancient lips, no longer grinning. Ruth's cry of pain echoed in his head, the male bit her. His eyes flick back to the bite mark on her thigh. It was an attempt to force themselves on the child. The sound of smacking and grunting from her punching and kicking at her attacker reverberated in his brain. Her feet slapped against floorboards and pavement, Ruth had escaped. Her feet confirmed it as they are swollen and bloodied. Ruth's footprint to the couch is a good indicator. Pennywise understood, she didn't have time to throw on shoes. Ruth had to leave the house.

He heard the male calling out, rushing after her. "Ruthie! You fucking little bitch! Get your scrawny ass back here, you fucking slut! Get back here!"

Ruth is quick to duck behind shrubs, running out of sight.

He then heard her desperate cries for help as the girl ran down the street. No one bothered to glance out their windows. Not his fault by any means. The girl already has a name about her being the bastard daughter of the town's whore. The emotional scars on her heart revealed that Ruth is continuously bullied by her peers, even the bunch that are wanting to be rid of him. The torment she goes through with her mother is another. The woman physically and emotionally abuses her child. She's even neglectful in feeding Ruth, letting her fend for herself. It's no wonder Ruth is petite and frail.

Ruth is unloved and alone in this world. No one cared. She has nowhere to go that feels safe. Except, it lies here where nightmares of his creation reside.

Within a blink, his eyes dimmed. Pennywise remained to watch Ruth, listening to her sobs and sniffles. When he first saw the child, he knew Ruth was a victim of child abuse. To discover the child is molested and sexually abused made his innards unpleasantly squirm. From the sounds of Ruth's light wails, she has been dealing with the mistreatment for a long time now. For some reason, Ruth's despair sickened him to the core.

Rainwater dripped on her again, Ruth curls tighter and shudders a sob.

"Why?" Ruth faintly mumbles.

Pennywise frowns, blinking. The gold in his eyes disappear, replaced with innocent bright blues. He can't find it in his evil heart to scare Ruth. IT could, if he genuinely wanted to, that is. He can end it instantly for her, so she wouldn't have to deal with the loneliness or the abuse anymore. She will be free. Except, he couldn't. Pennywise the Clown, the evil ancient dimensional being, could not find it in his heart to frighten poor Ruth. He decided to leave her be. The dark Neibolt house will be Ruth's haven. It will protect her from the world.

Another drop landed on her covered head, making her shiver. Pennywise glances at the ceiling. He uses his power to cover the hole, stopping the unforgiving drip. He leaves the couches side, away from Ruth to sleep. He squats far, watching the girl still with a disgusted frown.

Why?
