Rukia watched the hollow she had just killed fade away. She gave a tired sigh as she sheathed her sword. That was the third hollow in the last hour, at least her shift was over and Renji would take over for a bit.

After finding her gigai, she began to walk back to the Kurosaki clinic.

She wondered if Ichigo was still in a good mood. For the past few days Ichigo had been in high spirits and when she asked him why he had said he and his hollow were finally starting to get along. He thought it was because he had given the hollow a name, Shiro.

Finally she reached the house and opened the door. Shouting could be heard coming from the living room as she stepped inside.

"Damn it Shiro! You're hurting me!" She heard Ichigo yell.

Panic filled her. What was going on? Was his hollow trying to take over?

"Oh, I'm gonna do more then hurt ya, king!" A distorted voice shouted back.

This was bad. She had felt Ichigo's reistu when he wore his hollow mask and knew she couldn't stop him if he lost control of it.

"Stop it Shiro, you basterd!" Ichigo yelled angrily.

"But yur the one who asked for it king, that's why ya let me out in the first place." The hollow said mockingly.

Wait, Ichigo had let him out? Why had he done that? And what did the hollow mean when he said, "Ichigo asked for it"?

"No Shiro! Not again! You going to-"

The hollow cut Ichigo off. "Hell yah! Ya know I'm gonna do it king! I'm gonna do it!"

For a few moments she heard growling noises coming from the living room.

"YESSS!!!!" She heard the hollow scream.

"FUCK!" Ichigo yelled at the same time Shiro had yelled yes.

A loud thump sounded in the living room.

What the hell were they doing? Were they fighting? Worried, she started for the living room when another thought entered her mind.

They aren't… Rukia felt her checks heat up at the thought.

"Ya ready for round four?" The hollow asked.

"You're on." Ichigo answered.

She quickly turned around and went out the door, not wanting to know what was going on in the living room. She hoped they didn't know she had been there.

*In the living room*

"Damn it Shiro! You're hurting me!"

Ichigo franticly pressed the buttons on the Nintendo DS in a vain attempt to keep his character from being killed.

"Oh, I'm gonna do more than hurt ya king!" The hollow said with crazy grin spread across his face.

Ichigo watched his character get pummeled by Shiro's character.

"Stop it Shiro! You basterd!"

"But yur the one who asked for it king, that's why ya let me out in the first place." Shiro said, his grin getting bigger if that were possible.

Shiro had been annoying Ichigo by telling him he was bored so Ichigo had let him out. They had ended up playing some fighting game on Yuzu and Karin's DSs, Shiro playing on Yuzu's white DS and Ichigo playing on Karin's black DS. So far Shiro had won twice.

The health bar on Ichigo's screen quickly emptied as Shiro continued to mercilessly beat his character. Ichigo pressed the buttons desperately as the health bar became dangerously low.

"No Shiro! Not again! You going to-"

"Hell yah! Ya know I'm gonna do it king! I'm gonna do it!"

Ichigo growled loudly in anger and frustration as he watched Shiro's character give the final blow to his.

"YESSS!!!!" Shiro jumped up pumped his fist into the air.

"FUCK!" Ichigo slammed his fist into the coffee table as "YOU LOSE" covered his screen.

"Ya ready for round four?" Shiro asked, his grin mocking Ichigo.

"You're on." There was no way he was giving up with out at least winning once.

Hitting the start button, the two players watched the numbers count down as they waited for the next match to start.
