Chapter one: Deciding his fate...

Shorty after Gin, Aizen and Tousen dissappeared and everyone was gearing up to go back to the human world

Byakuya appeared before Ichigo...

"Kurosaki Ichigo... I must ask you a question... And It may be very difficult to answer..." He said to Ichigo.

"What could you ask that could be so difficult to answer?" Ichigo asked...

"I want you to choose..." Byakuya said... "Between returning to the human world... To your family... And staying here in the soul society... With Rukia..."

Ichigo's eyes widened, he never thought he'd ever be asked such a question...

"Being that you mastered Bankai you'd probaley be made a captain if you stay..." Byakuya added, "Ichigo choose wisely as this question will impact the rest of your life" And he left on that note.

Shortly afterword he returned home to the world of the living... Right before he left he asked bykuya if he could wait a month to give him his answer... Byakuya nodded...

When he returned he sat in his room thinking... how could i even think of making a decision like that... Sure things will be different without rukia... But things will be even more different without Inoue, Chad, Uryu, and the others.

Not to mention dad, kon, and his sisters...

The more he thought the harder it was to decide... He needed expert advice... He decided to go visit Kisuke..
