Story

A boy of about seventeen stood outside the sliding door of a classroom in Karakura High, waiting to be introduced because he was a transfer student and the teachers had to do this. The door opened and the teacher, Ochi-sensei called him in.

"Alright, introduce yourself." Ochi-sensei said. The boy nodded, wrote his name on the blackboard and then turned to face the class.

"Hello, my name is Isamaru Kojiro." The boy said in an almost deadpan voice, his unusual two toned hair; black with blonde tips, was unruly and covered his reddish brown eyes when he bowed. The teacher nodded and then looked at her seating chart.

"Alright Isamaru-san, why don't you sit behind…Kojima-san." The teacher said referring to the seat behind a black haired boy. Kojiro gave the teacher a very brief nod before heading toward his seat. When he passed a certain orange haired teenager, the said teenager jerked up and looked at him with an odd expression, then turned to his seatmate, a black haired short girl and whispered something before the girl just shrugged. A voice pulled Kojiro from his thinking.

"Hey, Isamaru-san, I'm Asano Keigo, and on behalf of this school I welcome you to Karakura High." A boy with brown hair said from beside him. Kojiro just looked at him and grunted, the black haired boy in front of him turned around and scolded Keigo for being inconsiderate then turned to Kojiro.



"Isamaru-san if it's not too much trouble why not come and have lunch with us, since you're new here you don't have that many friends do you?"

"Mizuiro!" Keigo exclaimed.

"Hush, Asano-san." Mizuiro calmly told Keigo. Keigo stopped talking but muttered something about using his last name. Kojiro observes the two 'friends' quietly.

"Hmph, maybe I will have lunch with you." Kojiro said. Both Mizuiro and Keigo stop what they were doing and stared at him, Kojiro glared back. "What!?"

"Good, then meet us on the roof for lunch, we can introduce you to our friends there." Mizuiro said. Keigo put on a big smile.

"Cool!" Keigo said a little too loud and attracted the teacher's attention.

"Keigo please pay attention or will I have to move you to the front, again." The teacher said. Keigo shut his mouth for the second time today and actually kept it closed until the lunch bell rang.

At lunch Kojiro went to the roof and there saw Mizuiro, Keigo, the orange haired teenager, his short black haired friend, an orange haired girl, another black haired girl, a tall guy, and a guy with glasses. Mizuiro motioned for him to come over and introduced everyone, the orange haired guy was Ichigo his short friend was Rukia (They were currently in an argument of unknown origins, but something about the way they glared at each other told Kojiro that there was something more between them), the orange haired girl was Orihime, the black haired girl was Tatsuki, the tall guy was Sado or "Chad" and the guy with glasses was Ishida (or Uyru, but he didn't like anyone calling him that).

"Nice to meet you Isamaru-san." Orihime said followed by Tatsuki and Ichigo who took the time out of his argument with Rukia to nod but was soon smacked in the back of his head by said shorty for not paying attention. Kojiro just took in the sights around him and sighed, he then sat down and brought out his lunch and started to eat, this was going to be a very long day, Kojiro thought to himself.

After school Kojiro takes off toward his 'foster' parent's house, which was actually a rundown shop that sold candy (wink, wink). He was a few blocks away before a screech stopped him in his tracks; Kojiro looked around, a feeling he could recognize building up in his chest. The ground shook as something landed behind Kojiro; Kojiro had enough time to turn around and look into the eyes behind the hollow's mask before he was flung ten feet away. Kojiro was able to get up enough to see the hollow coming for him but he also saw his body laying a few feet away. Wait, my body? but I'm still here. Kojiro looked down and saw nothing out of the ordinary (no sprit chain). Another roar was heard as the hollow stood over Kojiro; Kojiro looked up at the hollow, no fear evident in his reddish-brown eyes. Why don't I feel fear, it's like I feel I've already been through this. A flashback suddenly flashed in his mind of him, or someone like him, destroying a monster like this one. But before he could remember anymore the hollow swung its arm at him, but the arm never connected because the arm suddenly disappeared and a second later the hollow itself disappeared. Kojiro stared in wonder at the new figure in front of him, she was a girl that looked about his age with long red hair pulled back by a black ribbon and emerald eyes, she wore a black gi and black hakama pants, like a warrior from feudal Japan.

"Who are you?" Kojiro asked the girl. She's kind of cute. Kojiro thought, the girl looked Kojiro over, odd, this soul doesn't have a sprit chain, I wonder why? The girl thought. She then walked over to the boy and suddenly took out her katana, Kojiro backed up quickly. "Whoa, what the heck are you doing?"

"I am trying to perform konso on you and send you to Soul Society." The girl said.

"Soul Society, what's that? It sounds familiar." Kojiro asked. The girl just looked at him funny.

"Soul Society is where souls go to after death."

"Oh, well then I guess I'm really dead then, huh, not that I really care, but could you at least tell me your name before you do this konso thing?" Kojiro asked. The girl sighed and nodded, not like he would remember anyway, she thought.

"Tsunaki, Tsunaki Izumi." The girl said putting the bottom of her hilt on Kojiro's forehead like she was stamping something.



"Izumi, that's a cute name." Kojiro said as a blue light started to engulf him, Izumi blushed a little, no one had called her name cute before, but those thoughts were ripped away as a sudden violent surge of reitsu came from Kojiro, the blue light sudden erupted all around him and obscured him from view, What's going on? Izumi thought before four hollows landed on all sides of her, no doubt attracted to the large amount of reitsu. Izumi drew her sword and was about to strike when a new, yet familiar presence appeared, suddenly bursts of energy took out the three hollows on Izumi's sides and back. Izumi felt something zip past her and suddenly there was another shinigami in front of her with his zanpakuto wedged in the hollows mask, the new shinigami twisted then pulled his zanpakuto upward slicing the mask in half, causing the hollow to disintegrate.

(A few minutes earlier, at the Kurosaki clinic)

A beeping cell phone brought Rukia out of a heated kiss with a certain orange-haired shinigami. Rukia pulled the cell phone out of her pocket and opened it up, she then looked over at her boyfriend, Ichigo.

"Ichigo, there's a hollow close by, we gotta go."

"Ugh, why now?" Ichigo asked his girlfriend of about two months, their unexpected relationship had started with a goodbye.

FLASHBACK (flashback music plays)

Rukia stood near Ichigo's window, her back to him

"You WHAT!?" Ichigo practically yelled.

"I have to go back to Soul Society baka, it's where I belong." Rukia replied softly.

"No, you belong here, with me—us, your friends." Ichigo said covering up his blunder, and thankfully Rukia didn't seem to have heard it.

"No, I can't stay, I'm dead, and I belong in the land of the dead, not the living." Rukia said back still toward him.

"Stay, please." Ichigo said quietly, Rukia slowly turned around her large violet eyes widening, was Ichigo begging? Rukia adopted a serious face.

"Give me one good reason why I should stay then." Rukia said.

"Because I'd miss you, you idiot, you enter my life complete turn it inside out, then you get captured and I have to come save your ass, we go through that whole Aizen thing and now you want to leave just like that, I can't let you, I won't let you, without you my life is nothing, its normal, I…I love you." Ichigo said whispering the last part, but Rukia still heard it, her eyes widened and the next thing Ichigo's brain was able to register was that Rukia had thrown her arms around his neck and was kissing him, KISSING HIM! It took a few seconds but Ichigo eventually started to respond to the kiss and it seemed to last an eternity but in reality it only lasted a few seconds before Rukia and Ichigo broke the kiss for air.

"I-I love you too Ichigo." Rukia stammered partly due to of her breathing heavily and partly due to being nervous and excited.

"Does that mean you'll stay?" Ichigo asked looking down athis midget who had placed her head on his chest

I…I don't know, it depends on if I can get Nii-sama to allow me to become the permanent shinigami in this area." Rukia said into Ichigo's chest.

"Then you better get to it midget." Ichigo said wrapping his arms around her.



"Yeah, yeah strawberry." Rukia said pulling away and heading for the window, but Ichigo stopped her.

"Don't tell your brother about us right now, I want to be ready for him to kill me when you do, okay?" Ichigo asked.

Alright, I won't, yet." Rukia said as she climbed up on the window seal. "I'll be back soon." She said as she jumped out the window and hurried to Soul Society. Getting permission from Byakuya didn't take long at all. Byakuya was unusually sympathetic toward Rukia and only lasted two days against her persistent 'nagging' before giving her permission to stay in the real world.

END FLASHBACK

"Hey! Ichigo what are you day dreaming about, there's a hollow to kill baka!" Rukia said kicking Ichigo in the shins before popping mod souls into their bodies and dragging Ichigo, in his shinigami form, towards the hollow.

'Yup, this was his girlfriend…' Ichigo thought as he was dragged out of the clinic.

(Back with Tsunaki Izumi)

The shinigami sheathed his zanpakuto and brushed his shinigami outfit off. Then he slightly turned his head toward Izumi.

"hmph…I still think your name's cute…" Izumi's eyes widened, it couldn't be could it, but she just sent his soul to Soul Society, yet here he was in front of her, as a shinigami no less.



"Who-who are you?" Izumi asked.

"The name's Isamaru Kojiro, and yes I am a shinigami, I had my memories sealed away, but now thanks to you their back…hmmm I think you deserve a reward." Kojiro said walking up to Izumi, he put his hand on her cheek and pulled her into a kiss. Izumi gasped as Kojiro's lips touched hers and for some reason she couldn't pull away, what surprised her even more was that part of her wanted to deepen the kiss and...NO!! Izumi pulled away from the human turned shinigami.

"What's wrong, didn't like it…outou-chan?" Kojiro asked giving her a pet name. Izumi bristled with anger for two reasons; this guy had called her 'little cherry' which she hated, and that kiss…that kiss had been her FIRST!

"You…you jerk that was my first kiss!" Izumi practically screamed, Kojiro looked at her funny and then started laughing. "What's so funny?"

"You are outou-chan. That was your first kiss eh, then that would make you mine then." Kojiro said with a smirk.

"Yours, I don't think so." Izumi said glaring at him. Kojiro just laughed, and then put on a serious face.

"Oi outou-chan, you want to come with me to the Urahara shop? I have some things to take care of." Kojiro asked watching as Izumi calmed down. Izumi just looked at him, but nodded her head and sighed.

"Fine I'll come, but no funny business." Izumi said. Kojiro just scoffed and headed off toward Urahara's store.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Rukia finally stopped dragging Ichigo when they got to the location of the hollow signal but found nothing. Rukia looked at her phone.



"That's odd, it says there should be a hollow here but there's not." Rukia said, and then she felt something. "Ichigo there's an odd reitsu that seems to be heading to Urahara's place, he might be in trouble."

"Ah, who cares what happens to 'hat-and-clogs." Ichigo said. Rukia gave him a look.

"Yoruichi might…" Rukia said, trailing off when she saw Ichigo's eyes go wide, hmmm he still gets nervous around Yoruichi eh? Ichigo suddenly grabbed Rukia and started running towards Urahara's store. "Ichigo!?"

"We need to check on 'hat-and-clogs' don't we, let's go!" Ichigo said as he flash stepped towards the store. Rukia couldn't stop smiling but she was able to mutter 'idiot' as Ichigo dragged her to Urahara's shop.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

(Back with Isamaru and Tsunaki)

When Kojiro and Izumi arrived at Urahara's shop it was 'closed,' but Kojiro knew better, Urahara had sensed his reitsu and closed the shop. Kojiro knocked on the door, there was no response. So Kojiro did the next best thing to knocking.

"Oi, Kisuke, open up you hear." Kojiro yelled. "Or I'm going to kick down this door." There were sounds of movement from within and Kojiro heard a muffled voice.

"All right, all right, hold your zanpakutos." The voice said and the door opened to reveal a somewhat nervous smiling Urahara Kisuke. "Ah, Kojiro-kun, long time no see, ne?" Kojiro just scoffed and glared at Urahara.



"I thought you said this memory seal was permanent, but I remember everything now, what happened?" Kojiro asked. Urahara brought out his infamous fan and hid a growing smile behind it.

"Well, I didn't say it was permanent, per se, I said it would last your whole life, what I didn't mention is that I meant your human life." Urahara paused to let it sink in. "I set it that you would regain your memories when you were about to go to Soul Society, honestly did you really think they would let you back in, memories or no."
