Eyes of the wolf
"You…
You have been chosen to take the reigns of a hero who has fallen before his time was called.
Loki Fenris
It is up to you to protect this world from annihilation and death.
Work as you see fit, for their will be no rules for you to follow in your mission to keep order…
Do Kurosaki Ichigo Proud, Wolf of Remnant"
Perking up with a sleep deprived look as he sat within the moving Bus, a fifteen year old Kurosaki Ichigo rubbed his eyes as he reached for the bag beside him, looking down to his hands as they wore fingerless leather gloves, his brown eyes slowly glowed dimly gold before he looked out the window to see the buss driving into a stop… within Karakura town.
Smiling at being home, the body of Kurosaki Ichigo stood up calmly as he moved to leave, showing he wore a black tank top beneath a coat that matched the black jeans he wore, Kurosaki retrieved his skateboard at the front of the bus, giving the Driver a nod of appreciation.
Ichigo now stood on the sidewalk with his eyes closed as he inhaled the familiar atmosphere of Karakura.
Opening his eyes as the gold glow faded, ichigo moved to run until he dropped the skateboard at his feet, allowing him to ride it forward with a small hop forward.
When he first arrived within the body of a six year old Kurosaki Ichigo, Loki Fenris had at first froze at the sight of Masaki Kurosaki weakly holding him, which in his confusion and due to living Ichigo's memories, his brother spirit took control as the Hollow Gran fisher, was still present to feast upon ichigo's mothers being.
The encounter left Grand fisher at the mercy of Loki Fenris' rage before finally falling unconscious as his mind was brought before the Soul King itself, bestowing the Wolf Faunus the mission to fight in ichigo's place.
Which lead to now, with Loki living Ichigo's life with a different twist, instead of being a normal teenager, Loki had made Ichigo a Singer with songs he knew did not exist in this world, making sure himself so he didn't get sued by said artists if they existed.
It didn't help that he still retained his fluent English when singing, confusing his made friends and family.
Which also explains as to why he rode into Karakura on a bus…
He came back from his one year tour of singing.
Moving on.
This left Ichigo a celebrity with Loki's planning and vocal talent.
Hopping over a curve on his skateboard, Loki/Ichigo gave a friendly wave to a duo of schoolgirls who immediately recognised him if their excited squealing didn't give it away.
Hopping off to slide down a set of stair railings, Ichigo smirked as he greeted an elderly couple as he slid by before landing on his skateboards wheels with extra speed, turning down a street with a crouch, Ichigo yelled in cheer as he did a kickflip over a wooden bench.
"HELLO KARAKURA!"
Slowing to a stroll as he took a turn to a Clinic that brought a smile to Ichigo's face, he kicked his board up to hold it, Ichigo inhaled with a smile while approaching the doors to the home clinic.
Opening the door as silent as possible, Ichigo laid his bag and board quietly on the floor by the door, he crawled to the kitchen where his father Isshin Kurosaki sat reading a newspaper.
Waiting for the man to set the cup down did Ichigo strike.
Tackling his father into a hug, the man let out a yell as he was lifted off of the ground by his son, and seeing Ichigo the two laughed as they held each other.
"Ichigo, I didn't know you would be home so early" seeing his son smile, Isshin placed his hands on his shoulders proudly.
"Look at you" looking to his hair he noticed a spot of brown rising from the centre.
"Did dye your hair?"
"No, It grew on it's own, I held it proudly like Mom told me to" seeing the teen smile sadly, Isshin brought him into a small hug before calling up the stairs with a smile.
"Karin, Yuzu, Guess whose home early!" the sounds of feet stomping on the wooden floor made Ichigo smile as he was tackled by two small girls, Yuzu and Karin Kurosaki.
"Ichi-nii!" letting out a laugh as the two girls laughed and cried into his shoulders, Isshin spoke.
"Good to have you back, Ichigo" sitting up with a small grin, Ichigo spoke.
"I'd rather finish my education than be seen as a famous idiot dad… It's good to be back"
Hours later
Setting up belongings into his wardrobe with his skateboard, Ichigo smiled while looking over his room, then to a photo of him and his friends, him with Tatsuki and Inoue Orihime in his arms, Sado Yatsutora was in the background giving a small salute, and Keigo and Mizuiro were seen arguing behind Tatsuki.
Smiling at the sight, Ichigo went to give it a wipe of dust before he heard his father welcoming below, making him smile as he stood at his door as he heard rushing footsteps coming up.
Smiling as his door flew open,he caught the lunging form of Tatsuki Arisawa who brought him into a hug.
"You're back!" was her only cheer as Chad, Keigo and Mizuiro stepped into his room, each holding drinks and food.
"Welcome back Ichigo!" seeing them all greet with smiles and smirks, Ichigo smiled widely as he brought them all into a hug.
"Thank you, guys," looking amongst them, Ichigo frowned.
"So where's Inoue, thought she'd be the first to be here" seeing Tatsuki smile she spoke.
"She's making us food with that cook book you sent her on your tour" giving a nod to her statement, Ichigo moved to his closet to get spare chairs he packed inside, stopping with a thought of a certain Petite Shinigami he tossed two chairs to Mizuiro and Chad while holding one to Tatsuki and Keigo.
Who took them with smiles as they sat down with a small table in their circle, allowing them to sit and chat… with Ichigo noticing a ghost peek through the ceiling before turning to ignore it in favour of answering Keigo's questions pertaining his tour.
It was an hour later did Inoue finally arrive with Isshin helping her bring food in until Ichigo took it and led Inoue inside.
Smiling as he waved to his friends and possible love interest, Ichigo left the front door to his room where a school uniform laid clean and folded.
Seeing the uniform he laid it onto his desk before lying onto his bed.
The next morning
Sitting up with the alarm clock blaring softly on his bedside table, Ichigo rubbed his face as his muscles stretched with a glow beneath the skin he stood up to crack his back before shutting off the alarm, moving to his door he frowned before throwing it open while moving aside for his father to come flying by, falling onto his back with a groan Ichigo placed his foot on his fathers chest with a playful grin.
"I may have been gone a year dad, but I haven't forgotten what you taught me" stepping away with a smirk, he grabbed his uniform before going to the bathroom to shower.
Not noticing Isshin smiling proudly as he got up.
"I know my son, just making sure"
Skating along the road with his bag on his back, Ichigo let the momentum carry him as he leaned left and right slightly.
Feeling the wind on his skin he kicked forward with his right foot for more speed until he turned down a side street, seeing a gang of three skaters, they turned and gave him friendly waves that he returned, subtly giving a nod to the spirit the three were paying respects to before he continued on with a smile.
Which sooner shrunk as he now sat within class as the day went by, Keigo and Mizuiro stopping to chat with him every so often, in lunch he was greeted by Chizuru and the others who couldn't come to greet him, he did however get a small package from Michiru who smiled shyly towards his smile.
Which led to now… with Ichigo speaking to the three skaters from before as they placed another set of flowers for the ghost.
Nodding as the three gave him a friendly farewell, Ichigo was left with the girl before bringing his own vase and plant out, placing it on the ground the girl smiled as he stood calmly, letting out a sad sigh he smiled at her before leaving, giving a small wave he rode off in time to miss seeing a gate open in the air.
Slowing to a crawl as his house came into view, Ichigo flipped his skateboard into his hands before opening the door.
"I'm home!" waiting for his father to send an attack his way, Ichigo frowned while stepping inside, seeing Isshin no where in sight he did however spot Karin on the living rom couch watching TV, and Yuzu in the kitchen cooking his favourite… Fried Rice.
Sniffing the air with a deep groan, Ichigo dropped his bag.
"Where's old Goat, I was expecting a sneak attack… or is this a new test he's giving me" moving to the kitchen to steal a spoon of rice, Yuzu lightly smacked him away with the teen chuckling.
"He was called to the hospital to help with an injury" hearing this Ichigo nodded while moving to the stairs.
"Fair enough, I'll be in my room if you need me"
"Will do Ichi-nii" smiling as he heard Yuzu call in response.
Closing his door behind him as he laid down, he looked to his right hand as his veins beneath glowed faintly, making him smile slightly before getting comfortable.
Sleeping with a soft snore escaping him his room was silent before the voice of Yuzu halted the silence… followed by Ichigo jumping up for dinner.
