Here's chapter two, I'm glad it got a pretty positive reaction for the most part. Well anyway here's the chapters. Remember if you have any suggestions feel free to mention them.
-In Kamui Dimension-
The moment that they had all arrived in the Kamui dimension Obito had put them into a minor genjutsu. In the illusion they are being told that Obito is Ichigo's uncle from his mom's side. Minor lies to keep them busy while Obito talks to ichigo.
"Ok Ichigo listen up, it's too early for them to know you have powers again, and it's too early to let them know about me as well, so before we leave here I'm going to have to erase their memories." Says Obito
"What? Why can't they know yet?!" Ichigo says a bit pissed off.
"At the moment you're not strong enough to protect yourself let alone anyone else. Just because you have power again doesn't mean you have the same power you used to have. You have to learn how to use your new strength so you don't die.
I'm going to be teaching you how to use some techniques, along with a fighting style that revolves around your new eye." He says sternly.
Ichigo looked like he wanted to argue, but he knew Obito had a point, even if he tried to help he still didn't know how to use his eye. All he knew was Shunpo and a very basic genjutsu, he also had to learn how to use this chakra he now had.
"After I've shown you how to use the Uchiha fighting style we will start learning how to utilize Kamui."
Ichigo perked up at that, since if he could learn that technique he could go back to soul society.
"But that will be very difficult Ichigo, it requires a lot of focus and patience to pull it off correctly."
He momentarily deflated but it went away quickly. He was determined to learn everything he needed to.
"For the moment let no one know you have powers, with the exception of your dad if you wish to tell him."
Ichigo can see the logic in that so he agrees. His dad would more than likely see the difference in eye color and would ask about it.
"One more thing before we release your friends, you're going to have to start having a 'do anything it takes to win' mentality. Up until this point you've fought a lot of people, you should know that enemies will do anything it takes to kill you. So you should do the same thing, whether it's playing dirty, or attacking when their back is turned.
You can't wait until your enemy is ready to fight, if you want to protect what's important to you, you have to do anything it takes. That eye basically lets you see the future, you can know what an opponent is going to do almost before they even know themselves."
Ichigo knew he had a point, but the thought of fighting dirty against someone didn't sit right with him. Though he could see the logic in Obito's statement.
"I'll try, the thought of attacking when someone isn't ready just doesn't seem right to me." He said frowning a bit.
"Over time you'll learn to let go of that mentality. But enough about that for now, let's release your friends." As soon as Obito said that Orihime, Uryu, and Chad were looking right at them.
"You must be excited to find out you have an uncle Kurosaki-Kun" Says Orihime cheerfully. Uryu still looks like he's not buying it, and chad is just looking on.
"Yeah, he's normal unlike my dad. Speaking of my uncle, Orihime do you think you could use your power to heal some of his injuries?" He asks her.
"Of course." She says getting closer. In the genjutsu they had been told that he was also a soul reaper that had been injured, though she's the only one who seems to be buying the story. Naïve girl.
"Uncle." Ichigo says playing along with the story given. "My friend Orihime is going to help you out, she has the power to negate any injuries one gets. It can help you with your problem."
Obito removes his shirt and everyone sees something strange. They notice that half of him is pasty white and scarred in the center. Orihime raises her hands and says "Soten Kisshun" I reject.
Obito is shocked when a barrier engulfs him and starts removing the injuries. One by one his wounds started to go away, as if they were never inflicted in the first place. He feels the effects of Kaguya's All killing ash bones go away. His torso returns to a single skin color and texture, the right side of his face loses its scars and returns to normal, and his white hair returns to its original black. He even gets left eye back, though it's only a regular eye.
"Thank you" Obito tells her before placing them into a genjutsu once again. "You will forget about what you've heard here today once you return." He commands.
"Alright Ichigo I'm going to send them back and we will begin your training for the day." Says Obito who now feels stronger without his wounds. He activates Kamui again and Ichigo's three friends vanish.
"We will begin with Genjutsu, the Sharingan can cast illusions on people as you know, but it can also see through any that are placed on you or around you."
Ichigo's eyes widened at hearing that last bit, if he'd had this eye before he would've been able to see through Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu. (It's up for debate whether that's true or not) "No point in dwelling on that now though." He thinks to himself.
"Another this you didn't know is that there are more than one ways to cast it, for now we'll stick to having you make eye contact though, the rest will come when I feel you're at an acceptable level." Says Obito. "For now though, let's get this lesson going." He says before bringing out the hollow he had previously captured.
"I want you to subdue him using genjutsu just as you did on that old man before."
Obito releases his hold on the hollow and it spots Ichigo and lunges. Ichigo stands his ground and proceeds to capture the hollow in the genjutsu…for half a second before it breaks it and attacks.
"What the hell?! I know I did that right, what happened?" Ichigo thinks as he flash steps out of the way of a claw. When the hollow looks at him Ichigo tries to do it again, only to be met with the same results. Half a second and the hollow continues trying to kill him.
As Ichigo is flash stepping away from the hollow Obito decides to enlighten the boy a little. "You've no doubt noticed by now that the hollow keeps breaking your hold on him, it's because you're not focusing enough. It's not a civilian Ichigo, it's stronger, and if you wish to subdue the beast you must force it to kneel to you.
Remember what you told me, how your mother was killed by a hollow, use that as strength to subjugate it."
Ichigo being reminded of his mother's death always put him in a bad mood, add the fact that there's a giant monster trying to kill him was enough to drive him over the edge. Turning around to face it he yells "That's enough!" one red eye spinning madly.
The hollow stops right in its tracks and drops to the floor.
"Well done, know this, when using genjutsu on a stronger opponent it becomes a battle of wills. If you're not strong enough to keep a hold on someone they're break out of it easily."
Ichigo nods his head from his position. He's got his hands on his knees panting a little bit since he's not used to casting stronger genjutsu.
"Now just in case you're ever caught in genjutsu I'll tell you the way to escape. You must stop the flow of chakra in your body and quickly expel it all in one burst. Alright we're almost done for today just one more thing."
Obito recalling what that glasses wearing boy had done earlier gets an idea. Closing his eyes he gathers yin chakra or what these people would call reishi, and starts molding it into his right hand.
The orange haired teen looks on as he sees it starts to form some sort of…fan? It has the shape of a peanut, it was white with black outline, and the handle went completely through the whole thing. He notices that once it was completely formed it glowed once before dying down. What had shocked him though was that he was human, but he was using a Quincy technique.
Obito had pretty much copied the technique Quincy's use but used his yin chakra as the source and reinforced the whole thing with some of the left over ten tails chakra he had to make sure it lasted.
"In the meantime you will be using this to defend yourself." Obito says while motioning to the fan.
"How am I gonna protect myself with a fan? I don't even know how to use it, or how it'll even help me. How did you even make that anyways you told my dad you weren't a Quincy." He says with a frown.
"And I'm not. I'm not sure if I mentioned this to you but the Sharingan also allows you to copy techniques."
"Copy techniques? Just how strong is this eye?" Ichigo thinks to himself
"This is a war fan, I've made it similar to the one I used to use. As for how it's supposed to protect you, well why don't you find out. Attack me. Use one of those techniques you learned as a Shinigami, only this time power it with chakra."
Ichigo remembers one of his lessons with Rukia about Kido, he puts one arm straight out and his hand on his forearm and starts chanting. "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of man! Inferno and pandemonium, the sea barrier surges, march on to the south." "Hado 31: Shakkaho" he yells before releasing a huge red blast towards Obito, who isn't budging.
Obito raises the fan and says two words. "Uchiha Reflection" once the blast hits, the fan glows before the attack is sent right back to Ichigo.
His eyes widen as he sees his own attack coming back and flash steps out of the way. Only to be sent flying into one of the floating cubes by a gust of powerful wind. Following where the attack came from he sees Obito with the fan on his shoulder.
"What the hell was that?" Asks Ichigo as he gets himself up
"That was a technique unique to us Uchiha. It's called 'Uchiha Reflection' as you can probably guess it reflects an opponent's attack back to them. Of course the stronger the attack the more chakra you need to put into the fan.
I will be teaching you this technique, that's how you will defend yourself until you can do so without it."
He nodded seeing how that technique could be useful against enemy attacks. Speaking of attacks he decided to ask something.
"Uchiha-san I noticed when I did my Hado spell that it drained a lot more of me than it used to."
"It's because that's a Shinigami technique used with a specific type of energy. You had to use chakra to power it up this time, remember the power you have now is not the same as the one you had before. Before you only had half of what you're utilizing now. That's enough training for today. Tomorrow I'll teach you how to control your chakra so you don't needlessly waste it."
Obito grabs Ichigo by the shoulder before the space around them started to distort.

They arrived back at the park, thankfully no one saw them, and Obito would have to erase their memory of the event if they had.
"Alright Ichigo, go home and rest we'll continue training tomorrow." He says
Ichigo nods and heads home, wanting to just eat and sleep. He hadn't noticed it back then but now he can feel the exhaustion catching up with him. Once he steps inside he notices something is wrong. By this time his dad should have tried to attack him already.
Heading to the dining room he notices his dad is at the table with a serious look on his face. "Sit down son." He says
Sitting down Ichigo asks "What's up dad?"
"I felt your power flare up earlier today. How did that happen?" He asks
Ichigo explains the story, telling him how Obito had offered him an opportunity to get power and be able to protect himself and others again.
"You ripped out your own eyeball?! Are you insane?!" yelled his dad with an uncharacteristically upset look on his face.
"Yes!" Ichigo yells back "If I came to you I knew you'd probably try and talk me out of it."
His dad doesn't say anything for a while, eventually he looks at Ichigo and asks "Why do you trust him? How do you know he won't kill you or something?"
"If he were that bad I think you wouldn't have let him stay when he was injured, you would've taken care of him if you deemed him an immediate threat."
Isshin nods thinking that is something he would do. He wouldn't let someone he thought could harm his family stay in his house. Even if it was part of the clinic, he would have removed him. Looking back at his son he decides to ask one last important question.
"Ichigo, are you sure you want to get involved in all of this again?" he asks "You have a chance to live a normal teenage boy life, go out, get a girlfriend, enjoy your youth like everyone else."
"I'm sure dad, at first I wanted nothing to do with all of this, but after everything that has happened it's too much to just be here and do nothing while everyone is out fighting. I have a chance to protect everyone again." He says with a determined look on his face.
His dad looks on and notices the look on Ichigo's face. He knows that look, it's the look of a man who's made up his mind. Nothing will change it now.
His dad nods, and suddenly his demeanor changes from serious to what he's come to expect. His dad gets up and attacks. What Isshin hadn't noticed was that Ichigo hadn't deactivated his Sharingan from when he showed him, therefore he saw the kick coming in slow motion.
This was the first time he experienced the prediction aspect of the Sharingan. When he tried to subdue the hollow he only activated it when trying to do the genjutsu, so this was his first time seeing it actually work in what he could consider Hakuda.
Dodging the kick he punches his old man right in the face sending him crashing into a wall. "What the hell old man, you were actually cool for once!" yells Ichigo
"Well if you're determined to protect, I can't let your skills get rusty" He said as he got back up like he wasn't just punched into a wall.
"Crazy old man, I'm going to my room." He said as he heads up the stairs.
As he walked up he heard his dad talking to his life size poster of his late wife, asking where he went wrong with raising their delinquent child. Ichigo's eye's twitched as he walked.
In his room he's laying down on the bed contemplating what's to come.
"Today was intense, there's so much to this eye that I don't know about. It doesn't matter though, the quicker I get this down the faster I can get to soul society and see everyone again." He thinks to himself before everything goes black. Soon he'll be Karakura's protector once again, and it's all thanks to Obito.

-Right after Ichigo left-
Upon Ichigo leaving Obito follows suit only to his own apartment. As he's leaving the park he's run into by a small child. Looking down he sees a young boy about ten years old, shoulder length hair with bangs between his eyes and ears, white T-shirt and blue shorts.
The boy picking himself up off the ground looks at Obito, and frowns. "Hey you pushed me!"
Obito looks on, not in the least intimidated by the child's stare. "You bumped into me" is all he says. Before the boy could reply a female voice was heard getting near.
"Kaoru that is no way to talk to someone, you bumped into this man now apologize" says the voice.
Kaoru, as we now know just looks at the ground and mumbles a half assed apology. His mother bows slightly. "I'm sorry for my son's behavior and for him bumping into you." She says looking at him. Upon taking a good look at the man she notices he's very attractive, if she were a young girl she would be blushing but she's over that, but it doesn't mean she can't distinguish a good looking man when she sees one.
"It's no trouble at all." Obito replies recognizing the woman as Unagiya Ikumi, Ichigo's boss.
"Hey mom doesn't he look like stupid Ichigo." Kaoru points out.
Ikumi takes another close look. They have almost the same hair style albeit different color and this man's is a bit shorter. "Yeah he does resemble him a little."
"It would make sense since he's my nephew. My name is Uchiha Obito."
"Unagiya Ikumi, and this is my son Kaoru."
"Well Unagiya-san I'd love to stay and talk but I must be going now, excuse me." He says before heading off.
"Not much of a talker I see, I'll have to ask Ichigo-Chan about him whenever he shows up to work." She thinks to herself before also walking off with Kaoru.
As he was heading home Obito was thinking of how to train Ichigo in the use of Kamui and how to utilizing it while fighting. He was brought out of his thoughts when a black cat with gold eyes stood in his way. Immediately he knew something was off about this cat by the way it was looking at him. That and he could feel power being suppressed by it.
Flashing his single Sharingan eye he is able to notice that it is a transformation, almost similar to a henge.
"You might as well release the transformation, I know you're not a cat." Obito says looking at it.
"So you noticed, unfortunately I can't transform here, however if you come with me to my friends shop you can have some questions answered there." The cat replies in a deep, masculine voice. If Obito was surprised by the voice he didn't show it since he just narrowed his eyes and nodded.
He follows the cat to a place called Urahara Shoten. The pair walked inside and he was met with one other person in the room. He was tall, had messy blonde hair, and was wearing a green coat with white diamond patterns along the bottom, and green pants with some sandals. He also had a green and white vertical stripped bucket hat on his head.
"Welcome to my shop. I'm Urahara Kisuke, I see Yoruichi did a good job in bringing you here." Says the now named Kisuke. Obito looks at the cat now named Yoruichi, he sees smoke forming around her as she starts to change. Her appearance is a tall dark skin woman with purple hair in a ponytail. She has a tattoo on one of her legs and is currently looking at him with a smirk.
Though that goes away when she sees he's not reacting at all to her in all her nude glory. Seeing that she didn't get the reaction she questions him. "Aww, no reaction?" she says pouting.
"This isn't the first time I've seen a naked woman." Is Obito's simple reply. "So why did you want me to come here."
"Yes of course." Urahara says with a serious face. "We want to know how Ichigo got his power back."
There's chapter two. Obito has met Urahara and Yoruichi and they want some answers. Ichigo is finally being trained in using his new powers and his dad is fine with it.
I'd like to know, do you think I should skip the fullbringer arc? Considering Ichigo has power it wouldn't be too hard to do and jump right into the thousand year blood war after a bit more training. Or should I do it?
Also the pairings are still up for discussion, though I don't think I'll make a harem for this. At most two girls after that it's hard to keep track of. However try and use some of the less used women. I like rare pairings, there's a lot of Orihime, Rukia, and Yoruichi. Also if you have any suggestions on how to improve the story feel free to let me know, readers usually have a lot of good ideas.
