Espada School
The gate is opening…the gate is opening…
Ichigo Kurosaki woke up in bed with a cold sweat running down his spine.
Even if what that feeling had meant was true Ichigo didn't really feel like getting up to check. After the great battle with Aizen had ended there had been many casualties. While the shinigami had gone back to their side to recuperate we had stayed in our world and let Orihime do the healing. Since so much had been going on in our separate worlds, we hadn't even noticed that the gates had been sealed.
Damn Aizen
Because of Aizens last parting gift, Ichigo had been forced to work overtime. He didn't know about the rest of the world, but his little corner of it was being kept clean of hollows only by himself. He could only pray that those damn higher ups had planned for something like this. In that case they may have kept permanently stationed Shinigami in the rest of the world.
Of course it was pretty easy to keep it clean when he had the rest of his family and friends to help.
Ishida, Chad, and Orihime kept up with him pretty good. Urahara being is sneaky self had snuck off some dark night alone and hadn't been seen since.
His Dad….
Well…..
Was helpful….
Sometimes…..
Mostly, between the times Ichigo spent training his new powers with his father and his Hollow cleanup time...There wasn't any time left. Luckily Chad and Ishida had volunteered this night so Ichigo could get some sleep. They'd started to get worried when he'd fall, dead asleep in both his real body and his shinigami one. At the same time.
So he sure as heck wasn't getting up for anything.
creakkk …..creak.k.k.k.k…k
Ahh! What is that noise! If it's Kon I'm really going to throw him out this time.
He peeked his eye open just enough to see the fist that came smashing down on him.
"Wake uppppppppppp Kurosaki!
"To think you were the first person we all came to visit, you can't even greet your guests properly!"said a short black haired girl name Kuchiki Rukia.
"Ugh!I groaned as I sat up and gave her a smoldering glare.
"My head hurts now!"
I guess I won't be going back to sleep..
