Chapter 2: Confliction
Karakura High - A month after the Winter War
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It has been a month since Ichigo and his friends escaped from Hueco Mundo. They had helped the Captains and Lieutenants to push Aizen's troops back to Hueco Mundo. However, Aizen told them that he would be back. Ever since then, Karakura was saved...
...At least, for now.
School was back to normal, Ichigo giving Keigo a beating when he greeted him in his class. Orihime saying good morning to Ichigo, who replied to her. Chizuru trying to fondle Orihime, only to be sent flying by Tatsuki's kick. Ichigo looked at Tatsuki. She was still upset at Ichigo for not telling him everything. When he returned from Hueco Mundo, he did tell her what has happened ever since Rukia came into this world.
Despite this, Tatsuki punched him in the face and scolded him for not telling her sooner.
Class began and everything was until after school.

Karakura High - After School
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"HEY! Ichigo!" called out Keigo.
Ichigo saw Keigo running up to him with Mizuiro tailing behind him.
"What's wrong, Keigo?" Ichigo asked.
"Are you coming with us to that party tonight at my house?"
"Sorry, Keigo, I have plans."
"OH C'MON!" Keigo whined, "We were going to have fun, games, girls-"
WHAM! Keigo's face met Ichigo's fist.
"I'm sorry, Keigo, I need to...do something first."
Mizuiro knew what Ichigo was talking about.
"It's Tatsuki, isn't it, Ichigo?" he asked.
Mizuiro nodded, "She was still upset for hiding things from her. The best thing you could do is to apologize."
"Thanks, man, I'll do that," Ichigo said as he headed out the classroom.
"Why don't to take her in her bedroom, Ichigo!" Keigo cheered before Mizuiro kicked him to the floor.
"You have a perverted mind, Mr. Asano."
"I'll kill you..."

Hueco Mundo - The Palace of Las Noches
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At Aizen's throne room, the five remaining Espada, along with Gin and Kaname watched as Aizen walked to his throne and sat down.
"Greetings, my fellow Espada," Aizen began, "as you know, we lost five of our Espada during the invasion of Las Noches. I have some good news; we have two Arrancar that have brought to my attention. They will replace Nnoitra, the Quinta Espada and Grimmjow the Sexta Espada."
The Primera Espada, Stark, raised his hand, "Sir, what about the other three?"
Aizen smiled, "There are few that have gotten my attention. However, if their power is awaken and the Soul Society gets to them, we must get them to join us."
"How much time do you think we have until then?" The Tercera Espada, Halibel asked.
"At least five months," Aizen responds, "until then, we will have the newest members spy on them until the time is right."

Karakura Town
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Tatsuki, are you there?" Ichigo called out at her apartment.
The door opened, revealing Tatsuki in her karate gear. It look liked she just came from the park to train.
"What is it, Ichigo?" Tatsuki asked.
"I wanted to talk to you for a minute," he replied.
Tatsuki smirked a bit before letting Ichigo in. As she closed the door, she turned to Ichigo, who was standing in front of her.
Before Ichigo could speak, Tatsuki stopped him.
"Don't say it!" she said.
Ichigo looked at her, confused, "What?"
"You didn't tell me about your secret, because if you did..."
"...I'd put you, Keigo and Mizuiro in danger."
"That's why, you kept us in the dark about this just to protect us?"
Ichigo nodded.
Tatsuki leaned towards Ichigo, his arms wrapping around her petite body.
"Ichigo?"
"Hmm?"
"What are you thinking just now?"
Ichigo leaned forward and kissed Tatsuki on the lips. Her eyes widen at his actions. Soon, the two kissed as Ichigo slowly removed the Obi, allowing him to remove Tatsuki's Karate Gi and dropped it to the floor.
CHAPTER 2: END Read and review please!
Now, I have two announcments. First, I don't want to cause a riot here, but I think I'm going to up this story to a T to M. Because I want to do a love scene with Ichigo and Tatsuki in the next chapter. Second, I'm going to start what could be one of my biggest story arcs ever since I started here.
Be sure to keep an eye out for the Even a Worm Arc. See ya soon.
