I do not own anything.
I'm skipping a few of the episodes and chapters, so I can get to the Soul Society Arc faster.
Chapter 2: Mod Soul Chase
"Rukia, I got you breakfast." Ichigo said, knocking on his closet door. He sighed when there was no answer, he tried knocking one more time.
"I'm opening the door." he said, and then slid the closet open. Noting that it was empty, he took one of the rice balls on the plate and took a bite out of it.
"Ichigo quit walking and eating!" Yuzu shouted, "You'll get food all over your uniform!"
/
Rukia sighed as she stopped Jinta from hurting Ururu once more, eyes narrowed slightly. "Is the manager in?" she asked, tired.
Tessai was carrying stock out to the front of the shop when the door was opened by the young red head, "Jinta it's too early to open."
"She insisted on coming in." the younger boy growled, pointing to the weakened shinigami.
"Ahh, Miss Kuchiki." the large man bowed, "Just wait here while I wake the boss."
"Don't worry." a new voice yawned, "I'm already up."
The shopkeeper, adjusted his white and green striped hat, "Good morning Tessai, Jinta, Ururu, and Welcome Miss Kuchiki. We just got a shipment from the other side today."
/
"Good Morning Everyone!" Rukia giggled, making Ichigo blanch. He may be a cross dresser, but people using that kind of attitude made him sick.
"Kurosaki may I have a word with you?" the black haired girl asked, smiling brightly.
"OK." he shrugged, walking out of the classroom. He led her to the open area in the back of the school. Once he turned, a pez dispenser was tossed over to him.
"What's this?"
"It's called a Gikongan. They're a replacement soul so that your body won't lie about like a dead animal when you leave it." she explained, "I realized that you needed it the other day. This way you can leave your body without my help."
"It's a duck." he muttered.
"Oh shut up!" she growled, "I wanted the bunny chappy, but it was sold out!"
"A bunny?"
"Just shut up and take one!"
He shrugged and pressed the head, swallowing the pill that popped out. He felt the familiar feeling he got before separating from his body and was soon ejected. His eyes widened when his body stood on its own and examined the clothes. "Why am I in a skirt?" the replacement soul asked, "This is obviously a male body."
"I'm a cross dresser." Ichigo snapped, "Is that going to be a problem?"
"N-no!" the soul whimpered, "I-it looks good!"
"It better!"
"SO what do you think?" Rukia asked, smirking.
"This guy's an ass." he huffed, looking pissed.
"You're the one wearing women's clothing." the soul hissed.
"It's comfortable, and I think it suits me." the substitute shinigami growled.
"We have an order." the weakened shinigami stated, dragging the teen off.
"Go back to my class and be quiet or the next time I use you I'll be wearing drag!"
The soul looked completely scared at that, but smirked when they were out of site. "Don't bother." he grinned, "I'm keeping this body, though it might take a bit of work to get it to actually look like a guy's."
/
The soul ran through the city, squashing the desire to leap into the air since the body was currently wearing a skirt. 'What is with this guy wearing women's clothing?' he thought, 'Seriously, a guy should look like a freaking guy, not a chick.'
His eyes widened when he caught sight of Ichigo running at him with a look of rage. The replacement soul ran off, leaving a trail of dust behind.
"At least he has the decency not to jump." Rukia stated, "He's definitely a Kaizo Konpaku."
"A what?"
/
Ichigo managed to get a hold of his body, growling as he pulled the mod soul back onto the roof. "What the hell are you doing?" the teen exclaimed, "It was already dissolving, you didn't need to kick it! … You didn't want it to land there did you?"
The substitute shinigami looked at the ground to see a line of ants and his eyes widened. "I'm not gonna kill anything." the mod whispered, "Right after they created me the order to kill us was given. The day after I was born was my execution date. I waited in that pill, wondering when I would die. When I was shipped out with the replacement souls, I feared that I would be discovered and destroyed .I decided that life isn't some kind of plaything, I was born and I have the right to live my own life! That's why I won't kill."
"My, my…" a male voice chuckled, as the shopkeeper walked over, "We finally found you and you're already incapacitated. So that means we brought all this equipment for nothing."
The man pushed his cane into the mod's borrowed body's forehead, ejecting the soul. He bent down and picked up the pill, "Ok, let's go home!"
Jinta started protesting the decision, looking annoyed that he didn't get to fight. "What are you going to do to him?" Ichigo asked, slipping back into his body.
"We'll have to dispose of it." the man replied.
"Wh-who are you?" the teen growled, eyes narrowed.
"I'm not sure how to answer that ma'am." the hat wearing shopkeeper said, tossing the pill up.
Rukia snatched it out of the air, "He's a greedy sales-man."
"Miss Kuchiki, you can't have that!" the man exclaimed.
"Why not Urahara? Does your store take back a customers' purchases back without compensation?" she questioned, smirking.
"I'll pay you." Urahara tried to reason.
"There's no need, I'm satisfied with my purchase." the powerless shinigami replied, turning away.
"If trouble comes, you'll be taking the hit." the store owner sighed, shaking his head.
"Don't worry, I'm used to trouble by now." she started walking away.
Ichigo followed after before a smirk crossed his face, "By the way I'm not a woman."
He had already left the area when the realization sunk and a loud shout of "WHAT!" was heard. "You love messing with people don't you?" Rukia chuckled.
"Yep."
/
"Ichigo, this has been bugging me for awhile." Rukia said.
"What is it?" Ichigo asked.
"You're male, yet your muscle build is similar to a female's." she explained, "It's confusing."
"Well, when I was little, I would get exhausted quickly because for some reason, my muscles apparently were not developing fast enough. Mom took me to a specialist it turns out that I have a very rare disorder. Even when young the male body produces some testosterone, but unlike other males my age, my muscles couldn't absorb enough for any real development." he sighed, "I'm kinda glad that I have it though, I couldn't look good in these clothes without it."
"And why do you crossdress?"
"Don't know, I've always liked wearing women's clothing. When I was five I started putting on my mom's clothes, dad didn't like it, but mom thought it was cute." he grinned, "I managed to get my own clothes when I was ten, Tatsuki helped me out by saying that I lost a bet to her and had to wear women's clothing for a month. I got enough clothes for that month, and after it was up, I kept wearing them. It took a year for dad to finally accept it, but he did in the end. He's just glad that people automatically think I'm female, I think he's still a bit mad about the whole me being a cross dresser thing. He doesn't try to force me to change, but he doesn't like it either, Yuzu does though."
"I still think that you dressing up as a girl is weird." a loin stuffed animal huffed.
"Too bad Kon, I'm not gonna change because someone doesn't like what I wear." the teen chuckled, a grin spreading across his face.
/end of chapter/
And done, well that was kinda tough to do, since the ending was kind of thrown in as an explanation for Ichigo's behavior and why he dresses up the way he does. And I decided to skip memories in the rain, along with Don Kanonji. I don't like writing Grand Fisher, and I will never be able to describe the weirdness that is Kanonji. Please comment!
