The sun shined through the window and warmed up the room where Ichigo slept. Ichigo opened his eyes not wanting to face the day ahead of him. He sighed and sat up looking outside. It's been almost a year since he lost his shinigami powers. Ever since then he has been unable to see spirits. He scratched his head and stood up walking to the closet. He quickly changed to go to school.
"Ichigo you need to cheer up you've been moping around for months!"
Ichigo turned and looked at the stuffed toy lion. "Kon you know I don't like not being able to help the soul society fight off hollows."
"Yeah I know but you can't keep walking around like your life sucks," Kon argued crossing his arms.
Ichigo sighed, "yeah I know but it will just take some time to get used to not having my powers." Ichigo grabbed his bag and walked down to the kitchen. Yuzu had breakfast ready and Karin was already at the table eating.
"Ichigo!" All of a sudden a man ran and knocked Ichigo to the ground. "Your let your guard down you still need to stay alert even now."
"Dad, why do you always have to jump out at Ichigo?" Yuzu asked.
"Why you ask to keep my son alert and ready for anything."
Ichigo stood up and grabbed his bag, "sorry Yuzu but I'm not very hungry."
Karin shook her head, "see now look what you did."
Isshin looked at his daughters with a shocked expression. "Me, what do you mean?"
"Maybe you should try being a little nicer to Ichigo." Yuzu said sitting down beside Karin.
"If only you acted like a regar dad," Karin said.
Isshin ran over to the poster of his departed wife. "Oh my beloved Masaki how cold our daughters have become."
Ichigo drug his feet as he walked to school not feeling like going today. "Fick it," he said turning and walking away from the school.
Hueco Mundo was a boring place ever since the all the soul reapers left. There was no one strong enough to have a good fight with. Grimmjow took down a couple hollows that wandered into Las Noches. He frowned and set on top of a pillar at Las Noches. He sighed, "maybe there is someone worth fighting somewhere else." Grimmjow smiled, "Ichigo." He jumped up and opened a pathway to the human world.
Ichigo stopped in front of the shop door. He sighed then opened the door and walked in.
"Well what brings you to my shop, Ichigo."
Ichigo looked over at the man wearing the hat and clogs. "I came to see if you have found a way to get my powers back."
Urahara looked at the orange haired boy. "No I'm afraid I haven't." Ichigo frowned and looked at his feet. "I'm sorry."
Ichigo sighed, "it's ok i just don't like not being able to help my friends."
"I undeā¦" Urahara froze and faced the shop entrance.
Ichigo looked at him confused, "what is it?"
"Strong spiritual pressure, get down to the training room quickly!"
It took Grimmjow a minute to locate Ichigo. When he did he busted down the door at Urahara's shop. "Where is he?"
Urahara looked at Grimmjow, "I don't know who your referring to Mr. Arrancar."
"Ichigo, where is he?" Grimmjow growled.
Urahara just looked at him, "what do u want with Ichigo?"
"I'm bored," Grimmjow growled. "There isn't anyone worth fighting in hueco mundo anymore."
"You are aware of Ichigo's condition aren't you?" Grimmjow looked at Urahara confused. "He has lost his shinigami powers so he cant see spirits anymore."
Grimmjow's eyes widened, " are you serious? If that's true then why aren't you helping him get it back?"
"I have tried everything I can think of and nothing has worked."
Grimmjow sighed, "I want to help."
Urahara's eyes widened, "why do you want to help?"
"Because if he gets his powers back then I have someone worth fighting."
Urahara just looked at him, "why would I agree to that if all you want to do is kill him after?"
Grimmjow growled, "tell you what why don't we ask Ichigo what he wants to do?"
"I'll be back," Urahara said walking away.
Ichigo sat in the training room frustrated that he couldn't do anything. "This fucking sucks," Ichigo said kicking a rock. Suddenly he heard a noise behind him and turned around. Urahara was walking toward him with a concerned look on his face, "is everything ok?"
"Come with me Ichigo," he turned around. "Someone wants to talk to you."
Ichigo was confused but followed anyway. When they reached upstairs he looked around but didn't see anyone. "So who's here I don't see anyone."
"I told you he wouldn't be able to see you," Urahara said. "How do you plan on helping when he can't even see you?"
Grimmjow walked closer to Ichigo until he stood right in front of him. "Where are they?" Ichigo asked confused.
"Make it where he can see me," Grimmjow demanded.
"Why should I?" Urahara asked.
"What's going on?" Ichigo asked. "Who is here?"
Urahara looked at Ichigo, "Grimmjow."
"What!" Ichigo took a step back, "I thought he was dead!"
"He wants to help you get your shinigami powers back," Urahara answered. "He wants me to make it where you can see him so he can help."
Ichigo stood there for a second, "why is he wanting to help me?"
"So he can have someone worthy of fighting." Urahara answered.
Ichigo stood there for a minute, "can he really help?"
Urahara sighed, "I'm not really sure but I doubt it." Grimmjow growled knocking over one of the stands in the shop. "It seems I made him angry."
"If there is a possibility he can help I want him to," Ichigo said looking at Urahara.
"Are you sure?" Urahara asked.
Ichigo nodded,"positive."
"Alright," Urahara sighed. "Grimmjow return here in three days and I will have a gigai for you. Your no good to Ichigo if he can't see you."
Grimmjow grinned, "fine I'll be back." With that Grimmjow left and returned to Hueco Mundo.
