*1 month after the loss of his powers.*

Ichigo was getting very bored.

Ever since he'd given up his powers to save everyone from Aizen, he'd lost the ability to see spirits. He had thought that it would be great, a normal life like he'd always wanted, but now he realised that since he was never normal, he was getting bored.

He needed something to do, maybe he could see how the others were doing.

*2 months after the loss of his powers.*

Ichigo was...furious, for lack of a better term to use.

His friends had been avoiding him, like the fact that he now didn't have any powers meant that he should be excluded from almost everything that they do. It was at this point in time that Ichigo finally realised what Grimmjow meant, and now Ichigo shared his hatred for the same thing.

He hated those eyes. The eyes that looked down on him, made him feel weak and helpless.

When Ichigo went to sleep, he expected towake up in his bed with his dad screaming, what he actually woke up to however...was certainly not what he was expecting.

He was in his Inner World, only it had more trees and greenery in the area and a actual forest off to the side of the City-like Inner World, immediately, he jumped up and quickly looked around, hoping to see the Old Man. Hell, he'd be happy to see his hollow at this point in time...and he was not disappointed.

"Hey Kingy, how ya been?" Ichigo turned so quickly, that it's a surprise he didn't snap his neck. Ichigo saw his hollow, just like he usually was, bleached white skin and hair, reverse coloured Shinigamiclothing and inverted coloured Zangetsu on his back.

"S-shiro...?" Ichigo managed to ask, feeling more hopeful than he'd been in months.

"Of course it's me dumbass, who else would I be?" The 'Hollow' spoke with his usual cocky grin on his face as he approached Ichigo.

"B-but... my powers... they're gone, right?" Ichigo said in a tone that was, actually happy, only slightly surprising the bleached being.

"They would be, if I didn't make a quick plan B when the meddling Old Asshole wasn't paying attention." The 'Hollows' grin morphed into a scowl after mentioning 'Zangetsu'. "What do you mean? Why would you make a plan to get my powers back and Zangetsu wouldn't?" Ichigo was very confused, which showed in his Inner World, with how a lightfog was rolling in.

"Kingy, question time. Between me and the Old Bastard, who taught you how to survive and gave you help when you needed it? Who saved your life when the emo blew a hole through you?Who showed you how to use your Bankai? Despite what you might think, I've been the one looking out for you the most."

"But Zangetsu would..." Ichigo was cut off from his sentence before he could finish, "I'll tell you this one more time Ichigo, I AM ZANGETSU!" Zangetsu yelled in frustration at his wielders denseness, "That faker never did anything but suppress what we can really do." Zangetsu finished by folding his arms in frustration at the fact that him and his wielder were being stopped from being a badass like he should be.

Ichigo became serious, he needed to find out what the hollo... what Zangetsu really meant, "Explain, now." The hollow sighed as two tree stumps appeared came from the building they were on and, after being gestured by the Zanpakuto, Ichigo sat on it, he was shortly joined by his 'Zanpakuto' who started to explain what was happening to him and how Ichigo had his powers now.

Zangetsu explained how the Old Man never wanted Ichigo to be a Soul Reaper, how he made sure that while Ichigo survived, he didn't get any stronger then heneeded to, to survive a battle. Looking back on all his fights, Ichigo realised that Zangetsus' point was, slowly, making more and more sense, how his bleached self was there when he needed a power boost and to save his life, dispite the fact that he had to turn Ichigo into a hollow to save him sometimes. He was stunned completely when he found out that since Zangetsu was the Stongest Lunar Zanpakuto, if Ichigo was trained properly, he would have never lost all his powers to begin with, only a large portion of them for a period of time.

"But...the Old Man... he gave me my Bankai, right?" Zangetsu Tsked "That isn't your real Bankai Kingy, that thing would break immediately after it gets hit by someone strong enough. That old faker may have given you a Bankai, but it's pathetic compared to what you could really do if you were given the chance. Ok, I feel like I've ranted long enough. Now, there's someone who wants to say hello to you Kingy." Zangetsu said while looking behind Ichigo, who turned to see the figure behind him.

The man wore a white robe and had magatama around the neck area of the robe, he also wore pitch black boots and gloves. He had waist length white hair, and a face that looked emotionless but looked like it was crossed with an angry scowl on his very pale face, he also had a black Shakujō in hand and several black orbs in a circular formation behind his back. His hands and feet were covered by black boots and gloves. The thing that got Ichigos attention the most however, was his eyes, all 3 of them. His two 'normal' eyes were lilac in colour and had 3 rings around a dot like pupil. The eye on his forehead however, while still having the rings and dotted pupil, was blood red in colour and having 3 tomoe on each circle in a triangular pattern.

"And you are...?" Ichigo questioned.

"My name is Madara Uchiha, we have much to do Ichigo." He says while seemingly appearing in front of Ichigo, hand on his head, a second later Ichigo was bombarded with multiple memories that were not his own, they were Madaras' explaining his story and how he was in Ichigos soul/mind.

Ichigo saw everything, from the war with the Senju clan, to Madaras' death and how the Soul King put him in Ichigos soul to train Ichigo in everything he knew. The Soul King saw how Ichigo lost his powers so, Madara was assigned to both help Zangetsu and teach Ichigo, and in return, Madara would be with the ones he cares about when Ichigos training was over and done with.

The hand left Ichigos face, leaving him gasping for air as he fell off of the chair to his knees, eyes wide as he tried to process the information basically forced into his. A black gloved hand entered his field of vision, he looked up to see Madara offering him a hand up, which he took.

"Let's get to work." Madara spoke as a large grin was suddenly on his face, which was matched by Zangetsu making Ichigo immediately feel uneasy.


*5 months after the loss of his powers.*

During the tortur- I mean, training with Madara and Zangetsu, Ichigo learned a lot.

From Zangetsu, he gained access to his True Shikai and Bankai, and he learned 2 variations of the Getsuga Tenshō, one was called the Tsuki no Furea, which was a fire based version of the normal Getsuga Tenshō, and Getsuga no Ame, which was where he fired a Getsuga upward and it came back down. He also learned that thanks to unlocking his True Shikai, his power was, partially, linked to the moon, a new moon would cause nothing to happen to his power, but a full moon would double his power and he was learning how to use some Hollow techinques, such as Bala, Cero and Sonido.

From Madara, Ichigo gained a copy of his eyes, with his new eyes he was able to learn how to his some of Madaras' Jutsu such as Kage Bunshin no jutsu, Katon: Ryūen Hōka no Jutsu, Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu, and the basics of the Rinnegan abilities of the Petra, Deva and Asura paths, he couldn't learn some of Madaras' more powerful, large scale jutsu, however as that would attract to much attention, he did stillpractice the smaller stuffoutside of the city, in the forests around Karakura town. And while there he learned some of the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan such as the Susanoo and the basics of the Kamui, he could only form the rib cage so far though, it looked like Madaras' when he was in his Shikai but in Bankai, it had a black aura and a red skeleton giving it a more demonic appearance.

His absence was noticed by several of his former friends, he says former because he couldn't count them, as true friends any more. No real friend would avoid you and pretend you don't exist, especially after you saved all their lives while literallygiving up part of your soul. Ichigo used the all thefakers power in the Final Getsuga Tenshō, causing him to forever be lost.


*Flashback Start.*

Ichigo was walking home from his last training session in the forest around Karakura town, unknown that a unpleasant surprise was waiting for him when he got home.

When Ichigo got home, he saw his family, but he also saw his former friends and former teachers sitting around the dining room table, most of them having uneasy smiles on their faces.

"Oh look what we walked in on, a 'we know what's best for you and you don't' convention. These people are going to start questioning us and thinking that you'restill friends with these idiots." Ichigo and Madara were inclined to agree with the insane Zanpakuto spirit.

"... Am I interrupting something?" Isshin was the one to answer his question, "No you aren't. Please sit down son." Thanks to his training with Madara, Ichigo was able to keep his surprise at his dad being serious. Ichigo sat down at the end of the table.

"So what's this about?" Again, it was Isshin who answered his question, "We're worried about you Ichigo, no one knows where you go for hours at a time each day, so we'rewondering if you could tell us."

Ichigo decided to channel his Inner-Madara, drawing an annoyed look form said spirit and large amounts of laughter from the Zanpakuto. He sighed as he leaned forward, resting his elbows on the table with his hands in front of his face, blocking out the view of his mouth and nose. "So... you want to know where I go? Is that right?" The formal and fairly emotionless response threw some of them off, Ichigo was never usually this formal and cold, was the thought around the room.

Urahara answered the question this time, flicking his fan in front his face, hiding his nervous smile, even he had no idea what was going on and that worried him as now he didn't know what to do, "w-well of course Kurosaki-san, we are all friends here after all." The others in the room agreed with this with a nod of the head.

"...so... we're friends?" they all gave an uneasy nod, wondering were this was going, "... tell me something, what friends abandon a friend who just lost something important? What type of friends would avoid another 'friend' because he can't do something they can? What type of friends look down on another friend for saving their life's, countless times I might add..." at this, all of Ichigos former friends looked down in shame. "At this point in time... I see no one here, besides Yuzu and Karin, as a friend... now" he gets up and heads to the stairs "I'm tired, so I'm going bed." A hand on his shoulder prevented Ichigo from moving up the stairs... Isshins' hand.

"Ichigo Kurosaki, you will tell us now and apologies to your friends." Isshin didn't mind his sons 'rebellious' behaviour, but when he started to insult others who are his friends, that's were he decided to act like an actual parent, given that Ichigo had stopped moving, he thought it worked, until ichigo started speaking.

"... really, Isshin? Do you really think you can order me around? I'm far above your level Old Man, if Aizen couldn't stop me... what hope do you have?"A quick, but large, spike in Ichigos Spiritual Pressure shocked Isshin enough to make him let go of Ichigo, after which Ichigo went up the stairs again as if nothing happened, leaving a shocked and saddened crowd of people he used to know behind.

Most pf the others were ashamed in themselves at what they had done, but they brightened up when a tearful Orihime asked how they could fix this, which led to a brainstorming session on how to earn Ichigos trust and friendship back.

Urahara on the other hand, was deep in though, thinking of how Ichigo could have possible have gained his Spirit Energy back, the Final Getsuga Tenshō should have placed a block on Ichigos powers, completely stopping him from being able to use any form of Spirit energy, this warrants further investigation.

No one noticed the 2 little sisters of Ichigo leave upstairs to get answers from their older sibling.

*Flashback End.*


*6 months after the loss of his powers.*

During this month, Ichigo managed to perfect the Kamui, form the arms on his Susanoo and started to work on the Amaterasu, and he managed to be able to seal his Zanpakuto, though both he and Zangetsu didn't like it, so they kept it unsealed.

Ichigo was sitting in his classroom, trying to ignore the glances that his former friends, both human and Shinigami, were giving him.

He was annoyed at the Shinigami presence that had started to in habit the town, it made it very annoying to get to his training area when the Shinigami wouldn't leave him alone, thankfully Kamui and meditation in his Inner World was very useful for that purpose.

Though as the bell went for the end of the day, he knew something that would piss him off was about to happen, and fate proved him right as a certain pineapple red headed, tattoo enthusiast, AKA Renji, walked up to his desk. He just stood there, so Ichigo ignored him while packing away his things... or he tried to, as the wielder of Zabimaru slammed both his hands on the desk, gaining the attention of the others who were still in the room.

"Ichigo!" Said orange haired teen looked up slowly, "... you say something?" Causing everyone in the room to face fault at how casual he had said it.

"What's wrong with you? You haven't been acting yourself lately." Renji sais, hands still on Ichigos desk, a scowl on his face. Ichigos response however, was raise an eyebrow.

"Really?... and how have I not been 'acting like myself'?" Ichigos calm response stunned everyone in the class, as they all knew him to be a delinquent and a possible thug.

"You're... really calm and collected, it's weird seeing you so... chill, you're usually not like this." The response Ichigo gave to Renji, stunned the entire class.

"... Funny, you honestly believe that I still qualify you as a friend... word of advice, stop being a pathetic fool. While it suits you, it's annoyingly frustrating having to deal with it." Ichigo then got up and began to leave the classroom, dodging a kick to the shins via Rukia.

"I think we might need to start plan 'G.T.F.O' sooner than we thought." The Zanpakuto spoke while ignoring Madaras eye roll at the plans name.

Ichigo and Zangetsu were tired of being in this dimension, where they were used to help the Shinigami but were thrown away when they weren't of any use to them. So, thanks to Madara, they found out how to travel to a different dimension with the help of a seriously overcharged Kamui, thanks to the Kamui they had been able to obtain a Kido spell book from the Shinigami library in the Soul Society, which they were quickly able to learn thanks to the Sharingan and Ichigos stupidly high learning rate.

But now it was time to leave, he'd discussed it with Yuzu and Karin, both of whom were sad and teary eyed at him leaving, but he promised to come back as often as he could, which calmed them down slightly, as they knew Ichigo never broke a promise to them.


*Timeskip.*


It was night when Ichigo arrived at the outskirts of Karakura, more accurately, where he beat Aizen.

He wore clothes that were like what Obito wore during the war, though he had all his clothes that he usually wore, were in his Kamui dimension.

All three of them, Ichigo, Madara and Zangetsu, knew that when they overcharged the Kamui, they were going attack a lot of attention to themselves, but they knew it had to be done.

Ichigo had several clones work on the Kamui portal, which caused there Spirit Energy to flare wildly, and the others had noticed, as several Spirit Energies were heading to where they were.

"ICHIGO!" Several voices called out to him, causing him to turn around slowly.

He saw Isshin, Urahara, Yuroichi, Uryū, Orihime, Chad, Toshiro, Rangiku, Yumichika, Ikkaku, Rukia, Renji and the Visords.

"Hmm, you're here sooner than I expected. Though it doesn't matter, you can't stop what's about to happen." Ichigos tone was like he was bored, it almost reminded them of Aizen when he destroyed them all single handedly.

"Kurosaki-kun, w-what are you doing?" Orihime managed to stutter out.

"This dimension has bored both me and my allies, so we have decided to leave." Was the emotionless response that they got, some of them flinched but still readied there various weapons, causing Ichigos eyes to darken.

"We don't want to do this Ichigo, we are your friends, but...We're sorry Ichigo, but you're needed here." Was Uryūs calm response as he readied his bow.

"Hm, very well," a large, pitch black, Khyber knife with a hollowed out portion behind the hilt and along the blade appeared in Ichigos hand, "if you wish to dance, then lets dance." With that everyone tensed as Ichigo launched a Getsuga upward, confusing everyone "Getsuga no Ame."then the attack started to fall towards them, causing them to scatter to avoid it, if they wanted to live.

The next several minutes were spent with Ichigo lazy Getsugas at them and phasing through their attacks, "How sad, you think you can stand up to me with how you are now, you all truly are weak." Ichigos emotionless, slightly condescending, remark threw them off slightly, though they still needed to fight.

"We ARE strong Ichigo, and now we'll prove it." They all launched their signature attacks at Ichigo, hoping it would be enough, Ichigo only raised his hand, everyone was suddenly worried about Ichigo. Until the attack connected.

The attacks were absorbed into Ichigos hand, leaving a smoking hand when he was done, "Too much energy... perhaps the reason that you're not able to harm me, is because our definitions of power are different. To me," he appeared in the sky above them, Zangetsu raised, "this is what power means, Getsuga Tenshō." That attack launched them all backwards.

When they managed to get up, they all gasped loudly at the Massive crater that had been caused by the Getsuga Tenshō.

'H-how can he be... this strong?' "Hn, it appears it's time for me to leave, goodbye and good riddance." He was walking towards the portal until...
