Summary: Ichigo tries to learn Kido. SELF EXPLANATORY.

A/N: Something random I cooked up.


"C'mon, Ichigo, you can do it!" Rukia sat on a desiccated log behind the 13th barracks, trying to instruct her orange-haired companion on how to perform demon spells.

The only feat he had accomplished in the past hour was working up a sweat, which was amazing considering he'd done nothing but stand there. He had managed to manifest his reiatsu through the palms of his hands, but other than that they weren't getting any progress. He was straining so hard now his face was scarlet; altogether, it looked more and more like he was trying to produce a bowel movement.

Rukia huffed. "Say the incantation again!" she growled, agitated.

He let out a long breath and swiveled around to face here. "I just did!" he whined.

"Well, do it again!" she told him.

"But I can do it!" he argued.

"No, you can't, cuz if you could then we'd be getting somewhere!"

"Fine!" He threw his arms up in the air and recited the words for the invocation once more.

She straightened up in preparation to chew him out for his spectacular FAILURE when nothing occured.

Then, spirit particles began gathering in the air around him. Rukia held her breath.

A red luminous ball of fire gathered before him in the form of Shakahou and...instantaneously burst, exploding from his excessive amount of reiatsu. With so much power inside him, the kido wasn't able to maintain its form and discharged in all directions.

This...Rukia thought...is why he'll never learn kido.

Ichigo's cooked carcass collapsed onto the ground without so much as twitching.

FAIL.
