"Ichigo..!" a soft voice replies to his sleep talking. "I've had.. Enough.. Of your…" Ichigo continues. Her face turns gray and she is furious! "Ichigo the fuck you saying!?" the ferocious soul reaper screams in his ear. "Shit." Ichigo wakes up. She tilted her head in confusion. He notices and finishes his words. "I've had enough of your shit." he says. The once angry noble smiles. "Rukia, honestly, just fuck off!" Ichigo shouts in a grumpy tone. Rukia put on her pout face. "No!" she was being childish. "Fine, lets go." Rukia then smiled.
- A month later -
"Rukia… I.. couldn't…" Ichigo cried feeling his pain decrease. 'Is this what it's like to die?' 'If so… it feels horrible.' Ichigo continues to stare at the cold ground. 'Rukia I couldn't protect you…' The boys thoughts and heart fades as he realizes he won't be coming back this time.

I'm sorry I've failed each and every one of you and I will never be able to forgive myself for it. "Do you hate me for that..? Ichigo?" I could never hate you Orihime… "Kurosaki! Get up!" Sorry, Uruyu, this time I can't.. "Ichigo my boy!" dad, take care of Karin and Yuzu. "Big brother Ichi!" Yuzu, Karin.. Don't cry.. "You made me a promise, Ichigo!" Chad I can't keep that promise.. "Ichigo lets fight again some day!" Sorry Kenpachi for letting you down. "You are our last hope, Ichigo. Defeat Aizen!" Unohana sorry for not being able to defeat someone lower than Aizen. "The child will never falter in his steps.." Old man I apologize.. "Lets see if your worthy of being friends with her lady!" Sui Feng your right I'm not.. "What a scary kid you are…" Gin… Maybe I'll see you again… "Impossible I am the only transcendent being!" Aizen your right now you are… "Scatter.." I wished I could've fought you again, Byakuya… "Ichigo you fight to protect…" I know but now I won't be able to, Sajin… "Want a drink?" No thanks, Shunsui… "Honour." Hope to say hi to you, Kaname.

"Rukia… I'm not coming back…"
