Ok I was watching Maria-sama and it accured to me that the Yamayurikai reminds me of the mafia. (more like the Corleones and gungraves Millineon). It like an all female mafia. Youko Mizuno and Sachiko Ogasawara reminds me of Big Daddy from Gungrave. It whould be good if someone made a fanfic like the characters from Maria-sama against the characters from Stawberry Panic Godfather style since people love to compare them.
Well I am doign a fanfic of Bleach and Maria-sama.
Ok here's the polit plot: Lillian School and Hanadera have merged as acting one but two schools. But the student concil at Astrea Hill run by strictly the Spica school (they eliminated the role of Etrole all together) sees as a problem because Miator's Girls' Academy student council president had close ties to the former Rosa Chinensis Youko Mizuno. So it's basicly an spy/crime thriller and it my have character deaths.
with the Bleach and Maria-sama crossover: The story will be split into three sides.
1. General storyline: One year ago before the story of both shows. Sachiko was saved by a orange haired male from Karakura by the name of Ichigo Kurosaki. Now after one year the representives from the three school go to Hanadera to meet with with the student president Yuuki Fukuzawa and the Roses Excutives (I want to use excutives because it sounds cool). Now will Ichigo remember the girl he saved.
2. Souta Higurashi (Inuyasha) goes to Lillian to chanlenge the Kendo clud into a duel..will he win? (fights scenes inspired by Samurai Champloo)
3. There have been weird disturbance from Lillian and Astrea Hill. So Captain Hitsugaya goes and the investage. by change he meets Tsutako Takeshima a photographer at Lillian.
I've started the story so the pilot chapter will be up by the end of this week.

BleachMariasama Ga Miteru crossover. Sachiko and Ichigo
"Visual Novels," or interactive stories played as a computer game, often have "bad endings" that happen when you select the wrong action. This fanfic, translated from this link, is an example "Bad Ending" from the "Rainy Blue" arc, where Sachiko and Yumi get into a fight due to Sachiko's grandmother and Touko. The "Bad selection" is in red.
Spoiler for Rainy Blue Bad Ending:
Spoiler for Part 1:
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations, Yumi."
"It was a landslide victory."
Friends around me are congratulating me. Ah, yes. it has been decided that I am now next year's Rosa Chinensis. The hair I had untied has now grown to my waist. While thinking that it looks a bit like Sachiko-sama's, I responded back with a smile.
"Thanks for all your help. It was a difficult job."
"It was nothing. Since it was all about helping Yumi-san."
Katsura-san said. I responded again with a smile and thought for a moment. I've become the Rosa Chinensis, but I don't feel exactly moved or anything.
Not much of a title, this is...
"Congratulations, Yumi-sama."
Silence. Everyone went silent as the runner up Touko came.
"Thanks, Touko. You must have been disappointed."
"Not really. With this much a gap there's not much to be disappointed about."
The election was a landslide. Touko received only 30 votes. Probably from the friends who help out on her campaign.
"So, do you feel happy now that you've retrieved what you lost?"
Ah, yes. There was that. Last spring, the day during the monsoon season.
Spoiler for Part 2:
Yumi simply wanted to disappear. If Sachiko-sama says I'm no longer needed, I wish to no longer appear in front of her. If my feelings for her remain even though she had deserted me, than I wish to disappear from this world, along with all my feelings for her.
No, the Yumi until now was too naive. No matter how precious Sachiko-sama was to me...
Yes, that's true.
Sachiko-sama was the centre of my world. And to her, I was just her petite seour. Yuki was right. My school life was too focused on Sachiko-sama. I was too dependent. Too trusting. And too naive. That's why I had lost my onee-sama to a girl like Touko; that's why I despaired so deeply.
Yes, the Yumi until now was too naive. She was too eager, and too emotional.
—
"Yumi-chan"
An umbrella from behind covered me from the raindrops. Sei-sama's kind voice had brought Yumi back to reality. Although Yumi was too wet for the umbrella to make any difference, when she looked up at Sei-sama's face, under her umbrella, Yumi's exhausted feelings seemed to ease. Here is someone who cares for me, thought Yumi. If I disappear, her kindness will also disappear, thought Yumi.
"!"
Naive, still so naive. How could I depend so emotionally at a person's kindness? This is like a puppy, waiting for her master. Happy and cuddling up at the slightest pat; working so hard to earn her master's delight.
"My friend is boarding near here. She's offering to come by for a short while, but..."
"It's okay. I have been too much of a bother. I can go back home alone."
"But Yumi-chan..."
Sei-sama's concerned voice sounded so sweet. However, I will no longer be deceived by that. I wish to be hurt no longer.
"I'm fine. I look somewhat pitiful, but it'll be okay if I take the taxi."
Yumi looks not just somewhat, but very pitiful. Water is dripping from her hair, and her socks are muddied and speckled like a dalmatian. It will be difficult to take the bus twice in this.
"You sure? Okay then. Take care."
When Yumi returned home by taxi, mother didn't say much. She simply told Yumi that she'll leave the uniform at the cleaners since it's all wet.
It is now evening. Yumi opened her bookbag for tomorrow's classes and cringed in surprise. Today's textbooks were in an incredible state.
"W, wha, what..."
For a moment she didn't understand what had happened inside the bookbag. The top edge of the textbooks were all wet and wavy.
She had completely forgotten about it, but Yumi had dropped her bag with her umbrella when holding Sei-sama. Probably at that moment, water intruded into her bag through some opening.
"Ah...."
When she held her Math, Modern Literature and English Grammar books and looked down on them, the pages formed something like a Milfeulle. If she had done something when it first got wet, it might have been better but once they're dry there's no use trying to iron them. Yumi thought about wetting them again, but gave up thinking it would make things worse.
She'll have to use these books for the rest of her 2nd year. Yumi thought, every time she looks at these stains, she will remind herself of the events that happened today, and won't be able to forget.
But she can't do anything now. A stained book cannot be recovered.
Yumi returned the books to the bookshelf, and prepared for tomorrow's class. Tears, just a little, flowed, but she cried without trying to hold them in.
So weak, tears are still... but this might be for the better. Probably she won't forget this day till the end of her life. Since this day is the day she recognized her weakness. Today she is no longer an innocent little girl.
Let me cry as much as I can. I might be able to forget once I cry, but today will be the last day I cry. I no longer will be saddened.
—
The next day, Yumi felt a tightening in her chest, a feeling like she had been swimming the day before. She even had a slight swelling around here eyes, and she felt a faint pain around her temple. It would be because she had been crying yesterday.
When she was young, Yumi always woke up with this feeling when she had cried all she could the day before. She wasn't that much of a crybaby, but once she did cry, it was incredible. Since she hadn't been able to express herself in words, she had to cry. That was how she was back then...
I might not have changed a bit, thought Yumi. I guess I am a little better, since I don't have a fever right now.
After neatly tying her tie, Yumi smiled at herself in the mirror. She felt a bit uncomfortable, but that's okay. Unless she tells someone probably no one will notice her swollen eyes. However her eyes felt down. The image of herself smiling suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Yumi untied her hair. Adding a few pins made it look much better. She no longer has her twintail, but it looks much better on the Yumi of today. I'm no longer a child.
After examining herself one last time Yumi left for school. The sky was clear but there was a 20% change of rain today. Yumi took her red umbrella, and left for school.
—
As Yumi left the school building to head for Milk Hall, she saw a certain face she knew walking in the opposite direction. The other girl was, like Yumi, was chatting with a few classmates, walking towards this direction. The two vertical drills on each side her trademark. She must have bought something from Milk Hall. In her hand was a pack of strawberry milk.
Even though she got closer, strangely Yumi felt more at ease. No longer jealousy, but simply "that's a 1st year student called Touko." That was all that came into her mind.
"You're the worst."
As they were passing through, Touko muttered just enough for Yumi to hear. Yumi could've just ignored her, but faced Touko anyway. Why did I have to be called the worst, thought Yumi. The one who stole my onee-sama from me was you, wasn't it, Yumi wanted to shoot back.
"I must have completely mistaken you, Yumi-sama."
The reason Touko was able to be so proud, Yumi couldn't understand. At Touko's strong glare, a strong glare the former Yumi would have backed off, Yumi smiled back. Yumi even felt thankful for this girl.
I was able to recognize my weakness, because this girl took my onee-sama.
"I'm sorry to hear that."
At Yumi's calm response, it was Touko who looked disturbed. Yumi wished to see that face even more disturbed. That's right, I have something to give her.
"Oh perfect, I had something to give to onee-sama, no Sachiko-sama, but she was absent today. It'll be great if you can give this to her."
She handed over the rosary she wasn't able to give the other day. Touko's face soon turned pale. My friends watched Touko and me with a shocked expression on their faces.
"Wh, what...!"
"You simply have to hand this to her. Or, if you wish you can keep it for yourself."
Yumi ended their conversation at that and walked towards Milk Hall. She heard a voice calling from behind, but ignored it.
Laughs came. She felt happy. She was no longer a hurt, baby kitten.
—
Yumi later heard about the situation from Youko-sama. Sachiko-sama also came later and explained. That her grandmother's condition suddenly worsened, and that it was inevitable.
But, both seours didn't have trust in each other. Sachiko-sama failed to tell me about her grandmother, and I also wasn't able to trust her till the end. Sachiko-sama in the end sobbed, begging for one more chance. Yumi's heart felt like it was being torn. But this isn't like Sachiko-sama. And the two of us parted ways like that.
Yoshino said to have burst into anger and slapped Touko when she went to the Rose Mansion, demanding that she has no right to go there.
Sachiko-sama did not take Touko as her seour, and Touko stopped going to the Rose Mansion.
Yumi became a calmer person and the top of her class. And for some reason, she became even more popular than before, and was also called "the Rosa Chinensis en Bouton that never bloomed." However, Sachiko-sama never gave Touko the rosary, and the title of Rosa Chinensis en Bouton had been empty until today. The day which both Touko and Yumi ran for election and lead to these results.
Spoiler for Part 3:
"What do you mean, lost? I believe I just threw it away. Maybe yes if you're thinking about what happened before that."
"Yumi-sama... you've changed. So, are you satisfied? It has been really difficult to act in this story of revenge."
"Revenge? I don't even think of such a word. I just wanted to be Rosa Chinensis, that's all."
Yes, that all there is to it. I just wanted to be it, once upon a time.
"Don't you pity Sachiko-sama? Please lay it to rest and end your revenge at me! Do you think Sachiko-sama can stand watching you, Yumi-sama? She's just about to graduate; do you intend to torture her till the end?"
Touko pleaded in tears. Ah... this is lame. I was looking forward to a more aggressive response.
"Touko, you're mistaken."
Yes, a big misunderstanding.
"You, are not significant enough to be an object of revenge."
Touko's tears now started flowing. I tell you your response is disappointing.
"And why do you think I wish revenge against Her? She was nothing but Rosa Chinensis. I need not revenge, but teaching from her. Of course, she was my onee-sama before, but that was for less than a year. I don't have any regrets. She is just Ogasawara Sachiko, Rosa Chinensis."
She is now sobbing. Last year I couldn't have imagined I could do this to her.
"Now, now. Don't cry. You can try again next year. If you want, I can make you my seour."
Yumi hands over her handkerchief.
"Yumi-sama you are truly evil. To do this to someone till the very last."
She glares at me with teary eyes.
YOU'RE the one who did this to me first? Yumi suddenly wanted to shoot back.
"Okay. I'm sorry. A winner like me shouldn't be consoling you."
Yumi heads over to the Rose Mansion.
"Yumi-san!?"
"Yumi!"
"..."
Yoshino-san and Shimako-san, Rei-sama and Noriko all were there. And of course, that person also.
"Yumi...."
"Gokigenyou, Rosa Chinensis. I am Fukuzawa Yumi, new to the Rose Mansion. I'll be in your care."
Dreary. I like this atmosphere.
So, another life in the Rose Mansion has started. In a different form from before. For a slight moment Yumi's heart tightened, but that's okay. I've come back to this place.
Spoiler for Thoughts:
WOW. This is a very well written fanfic. It borrows much from the novel (the first part of part 2 is identical), until the "bad selection" part, making things seem actually realistic. I also got a kick out of "Darth Yumi," and part 3 can be nothing short of twisted evil.

I'm impressed, it's one of the best fanfics I've ever read, all series confounded.
Thanks a lot for sharing this, great finding ! (is this good English?...)... did you translate it yourself? that's a treat for all of us, I'll do my best to go on with the djcds myself ^__^ You're motivating me!
Spoiler for other thoughts:
Yes, I guess it's so good partly because they re-used the main storyline of the novels, it's really a "what-if" situation that follows its logic naturally. Yumi's psychology is interesting here, and plausible as a hurt kitten who grew up more independent after "that".
If the series was more about angst, it could have well finished like this. This is so well-done it even makes me think I'd like to see a side-story with this version and its continuation, it would be ... interesting, in another way from the normal story
