Chapter 2 – The Reason to All This: Part 1 – The Beggining
Save Inoue.
That was their goal. That's their goal.
Rukia came back to help him, even though she has gone against the Soul Society's laws, again. For him.
He probably will have to save her again too, but he really doesn't mind at all. Kicking the asses of those freaks again would be a pleasure, especially after what they've done, giving up on Inoue and talking about her betrayal.
Tche… what the heck they have inside their head? SHIT?
If wasn't for Inoue, he wouldn't have saved Rukia or saved the own Soul Society.
But again, Rukia was in trouble because of him. Of his lack of power.
"Ichigo!" she calls.
"Yeah…" he says, coming out of his own thoughts.
"I think we have something…" Rukia said, looking serious to her own telephone's device.
It was Renji's message, from Soul Society, informing that Rangiku has discovered something about Inoue's leave.
It's seems that Inoue has agreed to go with an Espada.
Exchange: the life of their friends.
Guessing the reason why she visited Ichigo, was going to say goodbye.
"Inoue…" Rukia murmured, worried.
Ichigo didn't say a thing. The only thing he could think was…
I was saved again.
Rukia turned to him.
"Ichi-"
"I'm tired, Rukia" he said, interrupting her.
"What do you mean?"
"I need to get stronger, it wasn't enough."
"You don't intend to…" she couldn't complete her phrase.
"I have to. I have learned a long time ago, that I can't be always rushing to do things that I can't, even something that I want so badly. I need to be ready only to win."
"I…" Rukia started.
"You can come with me, if you want to. I'm sorry if I didn't give much credit of your strength, but you're strong. You can train with me."
Rukia got a scowl. Ichigo has changed again. He lost his old habits and grew up. She didn't like that.
"What do you mean 'much credit of your strength'? And train with you? Wrong! It's train with ME! Rookie!" she yelled while kicking him.
"You… bitch! That's the truth! You didn't have your power back until recently! How should I know? Besides, you don't have a seated position!"
"S-Shut up! It was aniki's decision!"
"You shut up! You started it! Tche! If I knew you were that noisy, wouldn't had invited you!"
"Like hell you wouldn't!" she kicked him again.
But Ichigo caught that.
"Can't use the same trick two times in a row" he smirked.
"You're right!" she smiled.
She smacked on his head.
"Don't forget to invite Ishida and Chad" she said seriously.
Ichigo nodded, his scowl has deeped.
"And don't forget to apologize"
Ichigo nodded again.
"Any other thing?" he asked.
"Yes, don't forget that she's not just your friend. And the debt is not just yours."
"Got it. But Rukia…"
"Shoot."
"If you die, I will kill you."
"Got it" she smiled.

Rukia glanced at everyone and stopped at Ichigo, she could feel the weight of his heart had lighten. Now, he has all his friends safe with him.
"I need to go…" she told him, away from the rest.
He looked back at her for a moment, but before he say anything he went back watching his friends.
"They haven't finished their battles yet…" he informed her.
"Your reiraku has improved…" she noted.
"Their spirit's pressure are quite obvious… especially from that Kenpachi guy… even from here we can feel it"
"Well, that's why I need to go, if they're still fighting, I have to go too, it's my duty"
Ichigo looked at her again: the scowl, the bad boy's expression, the intesity of his eyes, were all there like before.
"I know… don't worryy… I won't die!" she mocked him.
"I'm not worried, just hurry up!"
She left him and he didn't even look at her back going away.
Ichigo waited until Inoue had cured Sado, he was wounded in the battle.
"Inoue" he called her.
She turned to see him, the last time she had seen him was… she blushed. All the things she said.
"I know you cured my pulse…" he said, looking in her eyes.
"Ah-Ah… that was nothing and…" she said, blushing a little more.
"Thank you, Inoue."
Inoue looked in his eyes, he was… so handsome with that scowl and that voice.
"You welcome" she blushed a little more.
"I'll pick you up on Monday."
"Huh?"
"School, remember?"
"But- but… you never-"
"But now I'll."
