Rouji was waiting; she was stranded and waited for Sosuke to return. But it was hard; she waited and never did so. Feeling like she would give up hope there was someone, a man who let her escape out of Hueco Mundo, she was waiting for what seemed like so long. Unable to know what happened, however at last, she was out and appeared elsewhere, the human world. She wondered around, people stared at her; that was an obvious due to the clothes she was wearing. Stopping she turned and scanned the area. What was the name of this place?

Ah yes, it was Karakura Town. She could recognize the street and had kept on walking north, eventually ending up at a home; knocking on the door of it she waited for someone to answer.
It being a weekend, a short raven haired female opened it and stared at her, unsure if she was really human or not.
"May I help you?" She asked, the taller female wondered what she could respond to the child.

"Um…" she trailed off, she then saw the kid depart and yell near the stairs.
"Ichi-nee! You have a guest!"
"Coming!"

She could hear a faint male voice, and waited at the porch of the door she could now see a tall male with messy orange hair. She remembered him, "Ichigo…"
Speaking his name, his brown eyes looked around and could see there wasn't anyone else around.

"Aren't you…?" What was she doing here? But well, he had decided to go and let her in and followed him upstairs to his room. Where his other younger sister, Yuzu was trying to hear what they were saying, considering the father was out of the house for the time being.
He had sat on his chair while she sat on the bed, and did not say a word. Such an awkward silence between the two, however he decided to go and speak first.

"What brings you here?"
Her onyx eyes turned to stare at him, she hadn't realized he was handsome, she had been busy staring and listening to the soft voice of another man she hadn't noticed at all.

"Well, I wasn't sure how to get back to my world and- and I was waiting for him to come back. After he told me to stay in Hueco Mundo, I did as I was told and waited. Not like I really knew how to go back anyway, but it was getting lonely and I ended up disheartened, I wondered what happened to him and I felt like I was forgotten."

She had sighed sadly afterwards; his brown eyes stared at her. Her clothes seemed worn and he wasn't sure how he could tell her it, however he knew he needed to.
"I see I have to tell you though; he won't come back. Aizen had too much power, and the only one that was able to beat him was me and in the end, I did so."

Rouji was quite shocked to hear it; he was defeated by the one before him. However she had bet that if he was able to beat Sosuke then he could beat her as well, so seeking for a fight she would not do. But she was sad, her heart aching and ripping in two. Her hand gripping her chest tightly and her head hung low, breathing heavy, in and out; in which he took notice and stood up. Heading towards her and holding her, concerned for someone who was not an enemy. She hadn't done anything wrong, and she had no place to go.

"Ichigo…how can I- " the female then looked up, the sadness in her eyes made her want to cry. His eyes widened, he was someone who never liked to see anyone in distraught or upset.

"He had got what he deserved; don't make it more painful than it already is."
He told her, trying to comfort her in the best way he could. He wasn't fully sure how she could be happy however he was always willing to try.

"I know it, but…they're all waiting for me."
He felt bad, she couldn't go home, and he didn't know how she was able to go home. He didn't have his shinigami powers, he didn't tell her this though; if he did he would be able to go to the Soul Society and the shinigami there would be able to help her figure out a way for her to head back to her home. Her family must be worried about her.

"I'm sorry, but there isn't anything I can do. But if it does make you feel better then, I can make it up to you."
Was that really enough for her? Rouji had stared at him with a greatest concern. However she had shook her head.

"No, you don't need to. I'm sure there is a way."
She did have hope, however it really may not be enough; maybe it was best to remain in a world she not knew?
