yeah first story.

dont oun bleach.

review please^^

------------------------Intro so you don't get all confused-------------------------

Ichigo was happy when, at last, he was alone in his head. Since he had battled the gay capitan (flower pedals?) his inner hollow had finally shut up. Sure Ichigo could still feel it looking out of his eyes sometimes, and there was the occasional rampage when he was getting his ass handed to him, but even when it was in control of his body the hollow never said a word.

No taunting his enemies.

No calling his king a pathetic waste of air.

No nothing.

The only side effect Ichigo felt from his hollow shutting up was a greater strength in battle that he really was starting to enjoy , and strangely, all of his emotions were multiplied something like 10 times stronger. So far, Ichigo say this as an advantage. More happy = no rain= good tempered sword hippie. Plus, his family and friends were less suspicious; he even goofed off with his dad!

Oh yeah this was a good thing.

----------------------------------------------------------story start--------------------------------

Ichigo had just finished dinner with his family who were enjoying his improved mood. "Yuzu! This curry is sooooooooooo fantastic. Can I have more please!(puppy eyes face)"

"I'm sorry onii-chan but there is not any more. Besides, you've already had 5 bowls aren't you full yet?" she was really surprised. Ichigo usually didn't eat much.

"Actually I'm always hungry now adays… I don't know… eating just makes me feel good or something like that." An extremely thoughtful face happened on Ichigo at this moment. His family gasped because he hadn't scowled like that in 4 weeks. "what?"

"well I'm at least glad you enjoyed your meal onii-chan. Is there anything you didn't like about it?"

"well, hmmmmm… it needed something more….. Acidic tasting….." and with that he went upstairs. Rukia was eating some takeout in his closet wile reading a horror book as usual. He went to his desk and started on his homework. "hey Rukia? What is an acidic taste?"

"something that burns your mouth a little."

"I KNOW that! But, what tastes acidic besides orange juice?" the scowl still fixed in place he wonders if Rukia will even be able to answer his question.

"well…hollows smell that way, but only other hollows eat them. Cinnamon, uhh…why are you asking this Ichigo?"

"Because I'm craving something acidic, and Yuzu wont but anything like that in the food because of dad's ulcer."

"Don't know what to tell you."
