Ichigo surveyed the gloomy town and sighed in annoyance. There was definitely hollows here, a very abnormal amount too. Tracking them would be no problem but chasing them through the woods would force him to actually make an effort in killing them.

"ICHIGO!" Kon cried, unzipping the bag and popping his head out.

"Stupid idiot!" Ichigo looked around to make sure no one saw the disgusting stuffed animal and stuffed Kon back into the bag. "You can come out when we reach a hotel."

"But we must wait for Rukia!"

"Rukia can take care of herself."

"But don't you feel a strange presence! There is something wrong with this town!"

"Stop screaming!" Ichigo began walking down the sidewalk in search of a hotel. "I know, hollows seem to be flocking here for some reason."

"I'm not talking about the hollows! There is something…off about this place. Something supernatural…"

"You've been reading too much of those stupid teen fantasy books."

"But-but-"

"Relax Kon, Urahara would have told us if there where…other beings here."

"Fool! Urahara doesn't know everything!" Inside the bag Kon pouted. "Stupid Ichigo, Rukia will believe me. Then when Ichigo is being beaten by those unknown forces my Rukia well come to rescue and save him, then she'll hug me and thank me for telling her about those evil things and I finally be able to burrow my head into her soft pill-OW!"

Ichigo dropped the bag onto the floor and gave it a good kick into a brick wall. "YOU CREEPY PERVERT! I don't know why I even decided to bring you! I'd rather have my body lying around then have you in it!"

"You're so mean Ichigo!"

"Just keep you dirty mouth shut until we reach a hotel." Ichigo picked up the bag and began walking, his mood soured.

While searching Ichigo accidentally bumped into a high school student. Muttering a broken apology Ichigo continued unaware that the he was being followed by the student.

"Hey! You're suppose to look at someone when you apologize to them." the student yelled, putting his hand on Ichigo's shoulders and forcing him to turn around.

"So-rry." Ichigo repeated, his left eye twitching. Back home he would have punched someone for touching him like that, but while here he had to remain a low profile. So instead of giving the mindless idiot a punch he probably deserved, Ichigo took the stranger's hand and brushed it from his shoulder.

"I don't like your attitude."

"I don't…like your gross face." Ichigo said, his tempter rising. This dumbass needed to learn his place.

"Ichigo…Rukia will get mad…" Kon whispered.

"Damn, I don't have time for this." Ichigo sighed and ignored the rude idiot.

"Hey!"

Ichigo spun around, sensing the fist that was aimed at his head. But a pale hand prevented the fist from getting closer. Standing behind the student was a pale man with gold eyes.

"Dr-Dr. Cullen…I-" the boy stuttered, suddenly becoming pale and shaky.

"Mr. Newton I never imagined you the one to start a fight." Dr. Cullen said.

"He…he…"

"I suggest you go home."

Though Dr. Cullen spoke calmly Mike was still terrified and it took all his pride to not runaway.

"Are you okay?" Dr. Cullen asked Ichigo.

"Uh…yeah. Thanks."

The man nodded and walked away.

What is up with him? Ichigo asked himself. He doesn't seem to have-.

"Ichigo!"

Rukia was running across the street with multiple bags.

"Did you go shopping?"

"IDIOT! I told you to keep a low profile!" Rukia punched the strawberry's gut and gave him a disapproving look.

"What?" Ichigo yelled. "I didn't do anything!"

"I saw you provoke him!"

"You…why where you hiding?"

"I wasn't hiding! I had almost caught up with you but then I saw a very nice jewelry store across the street. A very nice man offered me this cute bracelet and I suddenly remembered that Matsumoto asked me to get her something while here."

Ichigo gave her a blank look. "Urahara should have made Chad come instead."

Rukia frowned and swung her leg at Ichigo, knocking him to the ground. Pulling Kon out of the bag she took the round pill out of the stuffed animal and dropped into Ichigo's mouth.

"There are several hollows close. Kon, take these bags and stay out of the way."

"RUKIA! I HAVE TO TELL YOU SOME-thing."

In Rukia's hand was the Soul Candy toy dispenser and a strange grin on her face.

"You're very cute!" Chappy squealed and threw her arms around Kon.

"AHH! RUKIA! ICHIGO! COME BACK!"

AN: this is my first Bleach fanfic...ever! I know it's not very good but I hope to improve.
