So I've caught up with where I am and created a scene, time for story, hope you guys like, and please review if you feel like it

Do not own these characters, kubo does

Being in the real world was a drag, I'd much rather be at home having a drink, I missed visiting Juu, as much as its his grave. my higher reiatsu was drawing out more hollows than usual but I didn't mind, it gave me something to do, I found a roof that was rather comfortable, it had a deck chair that was comfortable to sleep on and the position it was in had an excellent view over karakura town, I relaxed here until I had work to do.

My soul pager buzzed and the ring tone rang, the co-ordinates read somewhere over near the karakura school, it was about ten pm, so nobody should be around, I smiled, this was going to be easy as cake, sometimes I wished I wasn't as good as I was, nothing was much of a challenge when you get to the age and skill I had got too, Juu and i, we used to be unstoppable, brothers in arms, we barely fought by ourselves even though we could do so well, thinking like this made me miss Juu, but I didn't let it get to me.

I stood and shunpoed to the location, It didn't occur to me but the hollow had a very weak reiatsu, the information given to me showed a much stronger hollow, appeared on the top of the school to gauge my direction, then continued, I guess I wasn't in too much of a rush, there was no sign of danger to anyone, I should have read closer, I would have realised then that there was a strong soul nearby, I'd realise too late.

'the boy'

I sighed as I looked at my watch, it was ten pm and I still had to walk home, work had kept me late, now I had to walk in the dark, I'd done it before but that didn't change that walking through the back streets was dangerous, especially for someone like me, with pure white hair that made me stand out and pale skin that bruised easily, I was a clear target, fortunately, my usual attackers were human, tonight I wasn't so lucky.

Since I had been a kid, I could faintly see ghosts, when I was ten, the first one talked to me, I had a friend that like to hang around my room, apparently he'd been dead so long he couldn't remember how he died, I wasn't disturbed by spirits at all, they were after all just humans. Since I had been a kid, I'd also had TB, I had attacks that made me get really sick and cough blood, I was used to it by now but everyone thought my illness was disturbing, my mother had died when I was sixteen, she was the only real friend I'd had.

now I lived alone and I was eighteen so no one would care what happened to me, so when from nowhere I was flung head first into a building, I guess I wasn't real upset until I saw no attacker, that was when I started to freak out.

'WHO'S THERE!'

Then I felt myself get lifted and crushed, I yelled out in pain. I still couldn't see anything, but there was a weird shimmer to the air. Trapped, I screamed out.

'HELP'

I must be spacing out, I could've sworn I heard Juu, I appeared where the hollow was sighted, I was surprised to find it was a relatively powerful one, drew my blade and dashed forward, aiming at his mask, he dodged me with a sidestep so I landed and sliced sideways towards him, that's when I saw the boy he was holding in his hand.

The boy was limp, my target changed, I sliced the hollows arm off and caught the boy, I didn't take much notice of him, he was young, I knew that, he had a chain on his chest but the chain was not cut, the body was laying beside a building wall, his hair was speckled with blood, but I don't notice the colour, in a rush I put the boy beside his body and turned to the hollow to finish it off, I drew my other blade and together finished the hollow, it died with a scream.

Meanwhile the boy stirred, waking, he struggled to his hands and knees and sat up, putting a hand to his head, blood trickled down his face, he was severely bleeding from the head, barely able to focus on anything, but he did see the monster that had attacked him, he slid back into the wall with fear, petrified, there was also a very colourful man standing in front of me, he had a blade in each hand and a wide brim hat on his head, the boy froze and watched at the colourful man destroyed the monster.

I sheathed my zanpaktous, and turned back to the boy, I was hoping he didn't have to die, I met a fearful boy who shocked me to the core, I shook, not believing what I saw.

'J-Juu'

The boy held his hands in front of him 'please don't kill me, please' he was so scared he had teared up.

He was just like he was at school, he even sounded the same, the poor boy was bleeding to death, the chain on his chest growing weak, suddenly I knew I wouldn't let him die again, I stepped forward with my hands forward.

'I won't, I promise I'll save you, Juu, uh..' he hadn't meant to say his name.

The boy look frightened but reassured, slowly putting his hands down, that was when he saw his body and the chain leading between him and the body, the boy started to panic and pulled at the chain, fear in his eyes, he looked to the man accusingly and afraid.

'WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!'

'Juu, I-I, let me explain' i felt stuck, it was turning into some horrible twisted story.

The boy slid away from me, afraid 'STAY AWAY FROM ME, I'M NOT JUU'

I could see he was dying, a familiar dread was settling in my chest and i could feel tears coming up 'p-please, i can help you, you cant die, please, let me help you' i knew i was practically begging now but i didn't care, I couldn't lose him again.

The boy seemed to calm a little, untrusting 'what can you do...'

I take a step forward 'I can heal you, make you better, please, let me help you, please'

I saw the indecision in his eyes, but eventually he gave a small nod 'help me.. please' he was scared, he didn't want to die, i saw that much.

I came forward and knelt beside him, i started healing his head wound 'i wont let you go, don't worry'

The boy didn't fight me, he didn't trust me either, but that didn't matter because he fell unconscious from blood loss.

'JUU, don't do this again... please' i felt myself start to cry 'please'
