DISCLAIMER! I am not Tite Kubo. So naturally, his characters and stories do not belong to me. Who would have guessed?

Ow.
It had hurt, but probably not as bad the
hit I got on spiky-red-hair Renji. Heh.
…
He…he had known her for a while hadn't he?
A long while before I had.
"Save her…" He told me "Save Rukia!"
Sheash. If he really wanted me to,
he could have not attacked me.
"…"
"…I will…"
Of course I would. She was Rukia.
I wouldn't leave her to die here.
Not after going through that hellish training with hat-and-clogs
and innumerable brushes with death.
That sounded selfish…
Of course I was here to save her.
She helped me take revenge for my mother.
Goddammit. That sounded selfish too.
In the underground canals with
Tarô…
Hanako…
Hanatarô I had said that I had come here to save
Her because she was strange.
"She said you'd only spent two months together,
but for some unexplainable reason she felt she could trust you
completely.
But she said that because of her,
Your fate had been twisted.
She felt that she had hurt you terribly.
She said she could never make up for what she had done to you…"
"That idiot. I'm the one who owes her."
For my Mother
Again.
And…
For opening my eyes.
I was never the same.
Before, I could see ghosts.
Now, I can help them too.
I can save people from hollows, even if its gotten me in a little trouble
From time to time.
(hint:URYÛ)
…
selfish reasons, all those that I have given.
And they center on
Rukia.
I'm sure Orihime wants to save Rukia, but
most of her reasons center on me.
Uryû still hates soul reapers, and Chad…
Why is Chad here?
I get the feeling he just followed Mr. Yorikichi.
And I was here…to save Rukia.
For those few months I had been with her, and now that I know of it
all, and not just see it.
Could I live normally again?
Could I live without her?
No.
I don't think so.
And Ichigo Kurosaki climbed the steps to the senzaikyû, with Ganju and Hanatarô following close behind.
