The orange haired male had slowly opened his eyes to see a figure laying her head down gently on the side of his bed. His face shifted to that of confusion before a student nurse walked over and smiled. "Aww. How cute. She's been coming in here to check up on you every once in a while… Is she your girlfriend?"

He shook his head furiously at her words. "I don't even know her… Well, I don't think so… Apart from that, no we aren't a thing." When he got a good look at the girl he discovered it was the pink haired girl that was called Moka by her friends. Odd, why was she checking in on him? He was merely confused before he heard a faint yawn coming from her lips. His focus returned to her as she slowly opened her own eyes. "Oh, I must have fallen asleep..." When she realized she had been laying near him, her cheeks burned up from slight embarrassment.

"I'm so sorry! Please forgive me!" She bowed her head expecting for him to scold her for some reason. What she wasn't expecting was his hand to adjust her bangs behind her ear. "Don't worry about it. Sorry that was going to bug me." She stared up to him to see him waving his hand dismissively. "Any idea where I am?" He asked to which she happily answered. "You're in the nurses office of Yokai Academy. You kinda passed out so we brought you back here to have you looked at."

He nodded as she explained before glancing down towards his arm. Raising it with ease, he released a sigh of relief, glad to see that he was not in complete pain anymore. He looked down to his clothing to see it being a plain white t-shirt and dark blue jeans. "Was this what I was wearing when you found me?" He asked the girl yet again who nodded. "Yes it was. We thought you were…." She trailed off shaking her head. "Never mind. I'm glad you're doing better." She smiled wide, which brought a face to his memory, one who bore auburn hair instead of pink and irises of a light grey. He shook his head before holding it a bit. Just who was that? Someone he knew?…

Refocusing on the current matter at hand Ichigo looked over to Moka, who simply blinked and meekly blushed at how he was looking at her. "Why were you checking up on me?" She was taken aback by his words before smiling. "Well… I thought I should. I thought it would be rude to just leave you alone and not wonder who you were or how you were feeling..."

Her words comforted him in a way before remembering their previous encounter. He had learned her name, but had yet to give his own, and maybe it should be that way for a little while until he regained more of his thoughts… But then again, what was she to call him? That wouldn't really be fair to her would it? Taking a deep breath the male had spoken one simple word. "Ichigo."

Moka blinked at the word before slowly wonder aloud what it meant. "Is that your name? Or maybe a food? I think I heard it was Japanese for strawberry…" She went off on a small thought process before the male gave her a deadpanned look. "It's my name..."

She giggled and clasped her hands together before holding a smile. This action made the male suspicious but he had continued to watch her until she began to explain. "It's good that you're starting to remember! I couldn't imagine not having my memories… I'd miss all the good times I used to have." She looked at him as he flashed a small smile. For some reason, her heart missed a beat and her cheeks began to flare up once more.

"That's why we create new memories. They aren't replacements but they are to bring about more happiness that you get to hold forever within those times." He shrugged before moving the blankets off him, swinging his legs off the bed and stretching out his body. It felt nice. The nurse came back over frantic as she tried to get him back in the bed. "It's only been a day! You should recover a bit more!" The male groaned before standing up. "No i'm fine. I want to get outta this room." His eyes shifted over to Moka who simply stood up and followed behind. "The Headmaster wants to see you, so we should meet Ruby-san by the main staircase."

"Ruby? Who's that?" He asked as the two walked alongside one another, the nurse continuing to call out his name before finally realizing that it was pointless. The pink haired female simply looked up to him before smiling once more. "She's one of my friends but she is also the person who helps out the Headmaster." Ichigo nodded before having yet another question. "Okay you've said that name twice. Who is this guy?"

She poked his cheek before giggling. "You'll see him. He's kinda scary really..." She nearly shivered before hearing the bell go, which caused a small yelp to erupt from her. "Oh no! I have to get to class. We'll see each other later!" She waved to him as she ran off. He returned it before hearing an unfamiliar voice behind him.

"I believe you're the one we found. Ichigo, right?"

The male turned around to see a woman wearing rather exotic clothing. It was the corset that caught him off guard as the majority of the girls wore the same uniform. Nodding his head he found his hands slipping into his pants pockets. "Yea, i'm taking a guess that you're Ruby, right?" The female nodded her head and gestured her hand behind her. "Follow me please."

The two walked down a long corridor before his guide rapped her knuckles against the door a few times to signal she was about to enter. Pushing open the oak door, the two would find themselves within a darkened room, and a gust of cold had sent a shiver down the teens spine. It wasn't wind that blew out but power emanating from the occupant in the room. Ruby took a step to move out of the way and reveal who she brought along, which brought a small chuckle from the male sitting at the desk in the middle of the room.

"Ah, the boy who survived the Yokai Ocean… I must say I am quite impressed. You could have been laying there for hours and you still made it through… How intriguing. That brings us to our next concern." It seemed to look like a smirk appeared on his lips as he stared over the boy, to which the orange haired teen wouldn't know. It seemed like his glasses reflected no matter where he turned his head.

"What exactly are you? Your power is extraordinary, much stronger than even one of our S-Class monsters..." Wait a second, what did he just say? Monsters? Ichigo shook his head in disbelief. "I'm sorry sir I don't think I heard correctly.. Did you say 'monsters'?" The head of the school nodded as his smirk never left his face for a second. "I did. See, you aren't in an average school, Mr. Ichigo. This is a school for Yokai. Old monsters of old myths who actually are the exact opposite."

"They are here to learn how to coexist with the other race. Humans, so to speak, and how to control their powers when around them. I believe that you aren't just an average human who made it on to school grounds… You may not know what you are but I have a feeling I know.. Don't be freaked out or worried. You should fit in here as long as you keep yourself. Make friends, enjoy learning, join a club… Do everything a student in high school should."

Ruby walked over to him to present him with the uniform he saw boys around the school wearing. Ichigo sighed before taking it from the woman. "I get this is the uniform, but green isn't exactly my color… Mind if I leave the blazer?" Ruby was nearly about to protest before the Headmaster raised his hand. "Sure, why not, I am tired of seeing all but green in my hallways.. It'd be nice to see a change from the males." The girl took back the green attire and left him with the brown khaki pants, the white button up and matching red tie, and light brown dress shoes to match.

"I'll be watching you, Ichigo, I hope you know. Do not cause trouble on school campus please but, if you do, well… Take it out towards the forest or the roof. Some of these brats do need to be taught a lesson or two sometimes..." The Headmaster released a dark chuckle as he watched the male leave his room. He was letting off less than he knew. He was easily able to tell who he was the moment he walked into the room based on his spiritual presence. He began to fill out the boys transcript the moment he left.

-Soul Society: Captains Meeting-

Tsukune was escorted into a large room with shackles locked on both his feet and his legs. He was being escorted by two people from the 11th Division, one on his left, and one on his right. The male kept to himself even when asked questions about where he was from. But how was he to answer? He didn't even know who he was! His eyes were locked on the ground until they stopped, to which the murmuring around him stopped as well.

"So this is the boy who is able to see and hear us, but with the most strangest energy that we have ever encountered, I wish to hear from the boy his tale." An old and husky voice could be heard as Tsukune looked up to see what seemed to be the head of the entire group of people. He had a long white beard with a white haori resting on his back. He held a cane with a giant knot at the top that was resting between his legs. His eyes stared down at the male with worn yet tired eyes, showing that he has seen many things within his lifetime.

"Sir, I would tell you everything I know, it's just that… I don't know who I am myself. All I can remember is seeing a bright blue flame and then being enveloped within some sort of water… After that, I don't know… I'm sorry." He spoke out with a somber tone which had basically said the truth within itself. The old man nodded before a male standing next to him had begun to speak towards him. "What shall we do, Head Captain Yamamoto?"

A voice then piped up from the back of the room. "I'll take him under my care! His form and presence is quite intriguing. I'd like to.. Well, 'study' him, if you would be so kind." The voice was slightly high pitched but easily recognized as a man. The Aono looked back to see a male with exotic paint running along his face with a strange ornament residing on top of his head. He flashed an odd presence that made the boys blood run cold. It was quite terrifying, and he was really sure he did NOT want to be anywhere around him.

"By study you mean dissect, Captain Kurotsuchi, and we cannot allow that." A deeper voice was heard as his eyes then focused on a larger fox like creature. He was surprised to see how much he stood out from the crowd as he easily towered over them all. "The boy is to be held here until we can sort out this matter. This may also be linked to the disappearance of Ichigo Kurosaki. Remember that." Mayuri simply waved his hand. "Bah! You know nothing of what I intend to do with the boy! I merely wish to see what I can do to figure out how he is holding such an interesting spiritual pressure…"

"Then you may study but without him in one of your labs." The one known as Yamamoto spoke, his cane tapping on the floor to gain everyones attention once more. "He is to be released into the Human World as to be monitored by Rukia Kuchiki. I deem this fit as she was the first to find him. No one is to interfere with his recovery, and once a week he is to be brought in to be checked on by Captain Kurotsuchi with supervision. No one is to battle this boy.." His eyes shifted to a looming monster that boasted severe pressure, a smirk on his face.

"Oh what? I can't have a little fun once in a while?" The man spoke out as he stared at the boy. "He may be a bigger challenge than Ichigo.." That was when a younger male spoke up, seeming to be much smaller than those who stood in that hall. "Kenpachi you know what happens if you break the orders of our Head Captain. Besides, I bet he doesn't even know how to use his powers, seeing as he can't recall his name."

Glancing down, the teen could feel that some sort of power coursed through his veins, but he couldn't tell what it was. He took a deep breath before feeling himself be wrapped up in his thoughts. And that was when a loud voice boomed within his ears.

"Tsukune!"

Staring up, the word had pinged something in the back of his mind… That was… That was his name!He just knew it! The male looked up at Yamamoto before speaking out. "My name! My name is Tsukune!" Everyone glanced back at him in mere surprise, while Mayuri merely stroked his chin with a twisted smile on his face. "Interesting. It seems the amnesia he is suffering isn't permanent… Now you must let me conduct my investigation."

Byakuya Kuchiki nodded towards the head captain before glancing back at Mayuri. "You are to do as the head captain has told. There will be no dissection of this boy unless he is killed in some sort of accident. Now if that gives you an idea, put it to bed now, or you shall face the end of my sword." The room seemed to grow cold at the threat, to which Shunsui sighed. "Can't we just have one of these things without someone trying to kill someone else? Jeez..."

No matter what went on between the massive group, Tsukune was happy that he could remember who he was… Though his last name escaped him, it didn't matter. But the more important question was: Who had called his name? The voice seemed so familiar but he couldn't place it with anything… He was hoping it would soon come back to him, along with whatever power they had been mentioning… As for now, he was to be treated as a sort of special guest… But it seemed to sound more like a trapped lab rat.

Alright! Now we'll have both boys enrolled and continuing on with their slow recovery! Hope this is going better in all of your eyes than the first attempt. I'll bring in some battle in the next chapter! Next time!
