Well, this is a new story I'm writing now, It's totally different from any of my previous drafts, and since I've got so many bad ideas, that I tried to write something different and got this. This is not a one shot so please keep in mind that I will write the next chapter soon, maybe released on monday. Thanks and enjoy my little experiment (If you want to know where I got inspired in, I have to tell you I was so bored in maths and spanish, that I started making random drafts of oneshots and then got these that I could make something with it. :D)
Again with you
Chapter 1: Orders
Early in the morning, Ichigo Kurosaki woke up and got ready for his school day in Karakura high school. He had to, but he didn't want, not since he loosed his shinigami powers, and that meant that she had to leave.
"ICHGO!" The little stuffed animal, shouted at Ichigo as he walked past him "BUY ME SOME PORN MAGAZINES!" Shouted Kon.
Ichigo completely irritated, but none of that was shown in his face as he turned around and stared coldly at Kon. With no life in his voice he replied "Shut up Kon, and grow up." He grabbed his backpack and left Kon dropped on the floor with almost a nose bleed as he realized the 'Ichigo' He had to deal with now.
He was a depressed Ichigo. He was a weak Ichigo. He was Ichigo Kurosaki, high school student of seventeen and a half years old, but a twenty one looking guy. He wasn't anymore that substitute shinigami. Not anymore.
In soul society, Toushiro Hitsugaya, received four papers with high rated missions for the lieutenant Kuchiki Rukia, Abarai Renji and Matsumoto Rangiku, leaded by the tenth squad captain, Hitsugaya Toushiro.
He shunpoed to the headquarters of the tenth squad and appeared just behind his fuku-taichou.
"MATSUMOTO!" He yelled at her as he saw the pile of paper that he left on the morning for her lieutenant to work on, uncompleted and she dropped on the sofa drinking sake.
Matsumoto almost dropped the glass with sake as she jumped by the sudden outburst of the little white haired boy that caught her not doing her job when he was on charge.
She also jumped and got embarrassed as she notices that her big girls almost got out of place.
"Taichoooouuuuu doooonnn't doooo thaaaaat my girls might run away!"
"Ma-"
"And if you do that, momo-chan won't be happy bec-"
"MATSUMOTO!" The former lieutenant fell down at the outburst of her captain. "We have an important mission." He handed her one of the papers, and as she read it, her eyes widened.
"Tomorrow?"
"Yes, now I have to give these two, dismissed."
"Hi!"
Toushiro moved through the seiretei to give the last two papers to Kuchiki Rukia and Abarai Renji.
Renji and Rukia were chatting happily about their last mission, sharing a nice moment.
"Hey Renji, you stole my hollows, so tomorrow we're training my shikai against your bankai."
"That's not fair, why don't I get to use my shikai?"
"Because you have to learn to use your bankai." Answered Rukia with the 'that's obvious' face.
"Fuck it."
To ruin their moment, appeared Toushiro and handed Renji the orders. Before Renji showed anything in the papers, Toushiro asked Rukia to follow him to talk in private.
"Kuchiki, I understand if you want to stay in soul society, but these orders will be completed anyways."
"I… don't understand… what's going on?"
Toushiro handed her some papers with orders.
By the 46 chamber and commander yamamoto's order, Ichigo Kurosaki, of Karakura town, promoted with the rank of a substitute shinigami of Kuchiki Rukia, has been moved to the case of a threat to the long worked for peace in soul society, the earth, and Hueco Mundo.
This mission is rated with high importance, and for captain level class. The people indicated and called for this mission must know the objective; know their attack tactics and every move.
As the objective has the reiatsu of a captain level class, the following members of the seiretei had been chosen for their skills and capacity to fulfill this mission.
The following members must meet at the senkai gate the next day they receive this chart with orders:
-Captain of the tenth squad "Hitsugaya Toushiro"
-Vice-captain of the tenth squad "Matsumoto Rangiku"
-Vice-captain of the sixth squad "Abarai Renji"
-Vice-captain of the fifth squad "Kuchiki Rukia"
Yeah, that was true. Since Rukia got back to Soul Society, Momo had left the seiretei and new people had gotten the places for captains. She had taken the place as vice-captain of the fifth squad, since Byakuya couldn't retain her anymore.
Rukia's eyes widened once she saw her name in the list.
She was near to Ichigo. Ichigo was her friend, and she couldn't kill him, he had a life and she changed it and she regretted that. Now by her fault, soul society finished believing that he was a threat that had to be destroyed.
"Kuchiki, are you able to do this? I know what happened with Kaien, and I know this is hard for you, so I ask you again, Are you sure you're able to complete this high level mission?"
Rukia lowered her head as she thought about it. She knew his every move; she knew every attack and every reaction he got. She knew when his hollow would go out to help him in the poorest case, but she also knew they wouldn't even fight. Because Ichigo had lost his powers since he used the Final Getsuga Tenshou.
The best way for her to finish all of these, was to kill him, and then kill herself, because she wouldn't stand to kill another friend and live after that. Anyways, some day she'd been treated as a traitor for giving him powers, and creating such a threat and she would die.
Shadows covered Rukia's eyes as she remembered the good times she had with the strawberry head.
She finally decided "Yes, I will." She regretted her every move, her single way of living. If she would have killed that hollow the first time, Ichigo wouldn't have tried to give himself to the hollow, and her jumping in the middle to save him. If she wouldn't have gotten hurt, she would have killed the hollow, and Ichigo would have a normal life, with a few memories of the last night but nobody would believe him. He would have been a normal human with a future and a life.
She had no life. She had no rights to steal a life. She had already spent hers, and couldn't spend someone else's.
Toushiro had already left and Rukia was alone sitting on the grass looking at the sky.
"Why?" was the only word she could manage to think of.
She spent the full day, training where she and Kaien used to train in earlier days. She had built some objectives and now she used them to train since her squad now seemed so uncomfortable.
Ichigo was walking outside of the building, when he started thinking of the news in soul society.
Sure they wouldn't call him any time soon, since he had no powers to help. He was completely useless now, but some visits wouldn't hurt, since he had saved the whole existence.
He had to keep that to himself, because Chad had lost every memory, and lost his powers, Inoue Orihime had died with Uryuu in a bus accident, Tatsuki moved out of the city after Inoue had died, Keigo had left with Mizuiro to Tokyo, and Kon got destroyed by a Vasto Lorde.
He was on his way home when he came to a stop as he remembered where he was.
He was standing in the place where he had seen her for the first time. His grew out hair, waving with the wind.
He was taller, he was stronger, and he was smarter and even more mature. But he felt like missing something, and his shinigami powers weren't the reason.
He missed her.
Rukia had spent the night out of the Kuchiki manor, sleeping in the yards of her training field. She woke up still pissed off by the news, and picked up her zanpakuto to shunpo to the meeting point.
She was the first so she found nothing better than start a little talk with her zanpakuto.
Not too long after, Renji arrived with a smirk on his face and all happily staring at Rukia .
More pissed off than earlier, she asked him coldly "Why are you so fucking happy?"
"Why not to be?"
"You shouldn't because our friend Ichigo is going to die tonight. That's why you shouldn't be happy!"
Renji looked at her and busted into a laugh. "You're not serious right?"
"I am." She glared at him
"Rukia, how can you be his friend? He is a monster, he is the enemy!"
"HE'S NOT A MONSTER AND NOR THE ENEMY RENJI!"
"BUT IT IS GREAT THAT HE'S GOING TO DIE, THAT FUCKING STRAWBERRY PISSED THE HELL OUT OF ME!"
"You… you lied to Ichigo? You feign to be his friend?"
"Yes, and why wouldn't you do that? He is a human Rukia. And he turned into a monster. He is a threat!"
"DON'T. EVER. SAY. THAT. AGAIN. DID YOU HEARD ME?"
Renji was totally freaked out by her reactions and more to scare with the cold glare she gave to him.
"Rukia, please."
"SHUT UP RENJI, YOU STUPID PINEAPPLE!"
She turned around and shunpoed away from him but still near enough to watch the tenth squad captain and vice-captain.
"Where's Kuchiki?"
"Here, taichou." She said from above a tree.
"Get down here so we can get going and be back soon."
"Fine." Rukia glared once more at Renji and then shunpoed inside the senkai gate "Let's go" she said coldly.
Hitsugaya couldn't contain anymore, the fact that he was sad by just seeing the state in which the little lieutenant was… it would get worst if she watched anything.
They were going through the senkai gate, when Renji asked "Who's going to give the final blow?" Hoping nobody would answer, so he could kill his enemy and the one he thought was stealing Rukia away from him.
"Me." The most unexpected voice to talk, talked. Rukia not turning to look at the group answered.
"But Rukia-"Rangiku started but couldn't finish since Rukia interrupted.
"But nothing. I will, because this is my mistake, and I have to fix it. It's my weight and my problem." She said and speeds up. Toushiro also speeding up to reach her to talk with her alone.
"Rukia let us help you."
"I must kill Ichigo. He has done so many things. And now I see, he is really a threat even if he is my friend he is a threat."
Toushiro stopped wide eyed as he started at the petite shinigami keep going. Rangiku and Renji stopped at his side to ask what happened.
"What's wrong taichou?"
"Kuchiki… she's completely drowned into killing Ichigo. She won't turn back or regret her decision. She had decided, and we better not interrupt or we might get involved into many problems. I could sense her decision, and her willpower, her reiatsu also flowing with anticipation. He won't stand a chance against her, not if it's Rukia who raises her zanpakuto to fight." Toushiro couldn't know how exactly right he was, it's just that Rukia wasn't completely decided into killing Ichigo.
They reached the exit of the senkai door, and Rukia told them to stay still while she finished all.
She reached the Kurosaki's house and watched it as she stood in the street. She placed a hand on the hilt of her zanpakuto and entered by the window of his room.
Kuchiki Rukia stood in the middle of his room, staring at the door as she did once two years ago. She then turned and watched what didn't fit in it. Ichigo was bigger, his hair longer, and he was sleeping and zero percent freaked out.
She gave a quick glance at the clock in his nightstand and read '4:37'
She unsheathed her zanpakuto and aimed for his neck when she decided something else. Still with the sword in her hand, she bent down and picked a pillow that he'd thrown to the floor.
She threw with all of her strength the pillow to his head and waited for his reaction.
He jumped out of the bed, fell down at Rukia's feet and screamed "ARRGGHHH!"
He moved his hands across his face as he complained "Oh, fuck, you crazy old man, why are you bothering me-" he cut has he watched a blue-violet eyes. Obviously it was not his dad, and not his sisters, so it left little options. The one who threw the pillow, wasn't his father, it was the part he missed of his life, the part of his life that he liked.
Kuchiki Rukia.
"Rukia? Mi- MIDGET YOU'RE BACK!"
"Shhhttt Ichigo, you'll wake up all the neighbor s" She replied quickly but quietly.
"Why should I? They shouldn't be sleeping if you're here!" He was so excited that Rukia was here. Then he thought it would be good to know why "Why are you here Rukia?"
She dropped her head, and shadows covered her beautiful eyes, making Ichigo a little sad but still happy by the fact she was there. The shadows made her look sad, but he couldn't see why she wasn't happy "Ichigo, I'm here because I am supposed to kill you. I'm here because I've been ordered to kill Kurosaki Ichigo."
Panic rushed through Ichigo followed by a shiver "Why… why would you do that?"
"Because it's an order of my superiors." She said and then hurt herself saying "Because you're a threat for the whole existence."
She had thought that killing him without knowing who did, and why it was would be unfair, so she woke him up, to answer his questions and then give him the last blow.
"You… You really… believe that… I'm… a threat?" he asked, suddenly anxious to know the answer.
"Y-yes" She stuttered
"Why?"
She didn't answer as she moved one step closer, and he moved one step away.
They kept like that until Ichigo's back touched the wall.
Rukia raised her zanpakuto that by now had been resting by her side. She gripped it tightly and closed her eyes, stabbing him right in his hearth.
To be continued…
