"I still think he could be a zombie," Nnoitra mumbles around a bite of his pizza. Grimmjow sat on the steps of the theater, Nnoitra standing in front of him. It was lunch and they were finally away from everyone to have a conversation.

"That's impossible Nnoi. He's very much alive," Grimmjow huffed out with his chin resting on his palm. "Maybe he already avoided his death and I can't see it because his death scene already passed."

"So what you're sayin' is he was already 'posed to die, and you can't see it 'cause it's in the past?" Nnoitra looked surprised before taking another bite of his food.

"Pretty much. I mean how else am I supposed to explain it?" He questioned before looking out over the courtyard. Grimmjow could see the bright colored hair at this distance, ichigo was on the opposite side of the yard though, and with Loly. It seemed as though the two were getting along well after the almost accident.

" 'Xactly, he already died! Tha' makes him a zombie if he's up and walkin' 'round. I'm tellin' you!"

Shaking his head, Grimmjow stood up and grabbed his bag from the steps. "That's not possible." He stated as he headed toward his next class, history.

"ICHIGO KUROSAKI PLEASE REPORT TO THE PRINCIPAL'S OFFICE." The woman who sat in the front office, Ms. Lisa's, voice came over the loudspeaker.

Both Grimmjow and Nnoitra looked at one another, "I wonder what tha's 'bout?"

"What's it matter?" Grimmjow questioned as he continued on, leaving his best friend behind to watch him go.

"Everyone has a death scene huh?" Nnoitra mumbled to himself as he watched his friend walking away, "then what scene is written for you Grimm?" He asked to no one in particular.

It was boring for Grimmjow in history. He didn't care about people's past. He was always more interested in their futures. He knew most people's ends, but what really intrigued him was what happened in-between now and then. Grumbling to himself, Grimmjow crossed his arms on his desk and pressed his forehead against them.

"Okay class, today we're going to recap on the First Shino-Japanese War. Can anyone tell me when this war was fought?" The teacher, Tsukishima-sensei, asked aloud. He held a text book open with one hand, and a bookmark resting by his leg in the other. "Anyone? What, no one can-"

"1894 to 1895 sensei." Came a voice from the door. Everyone in the class looked over to the newcomer quickly. When Grimmjow looked up from his seat, his blood ran cold. Standing there, with his bag slung over his shoulder as if he didn't have a care in the world, stood Ichigo. He was holding a paper in his hand as he walked up to the teacher.

"Sorry to interrupt. I was transferred into this period for my history class." He stated showing Tsukishima-sensei the paper with his classes on it.

"Alright Ichigo. Go ahead and take the empty seat next to Grimmjow here." He said as he held out a hand toward the only empty seat in the room. "And very good on the years. You are correct by the way."

"Of course I am." Ichigo scoffed aloud as he sat down.

"Excuse me?" The teacher asked as he looked toward the orange haired boy.

"Sorry sir, but truth be told I know pretty much everything you're gonna be teaching this year." Ichigo turned his head toward the window as if to not show interest in the class.

"Okay class, since Ichigo here thinks he knows everything about this course, how about this, if he can answer correctly both the dates, and the victors of whichever war I mention that is going to be taught in this course, I'll let everyone in this class be exempt from taking the exam. Of course that still means you need to do your classwork and homework if you want the credit." Tsukishima-sensei told the class as he crossed his arms in front of himself in challenge.

Everyone looked from the teacher to Ichigo in fright.

"And if he gets even one wrong, I'm going to double the amount of questions on the exam. Well do you accept Kurosaki?" Everyone shouted no at the same time in the class. It seemed that no one believed in Ichigo's history knowledge.

Ichigo glanced toward the teacher and smirked proudly. "Challenge accepted."

Everyone looked to the boy in shock, even Grimmjow. He didn't mind taking the exam, but to do double the questions, it that would be murder for studying.

"Go ahead, ask away." Ichigo said as he leaned back in his chair with his arms crossed and a cocky smirk on his lips.

"Ōei invasion." Came the first war.

"1419, Tsushima Province won due to Joseon withdrawal."

Tsukishima nodded in agreement before shooting off the next one, "Ōnin war."

"1467 to 1477, it ended in a stalemate."

Again Tsukishima nodded. "Very good. Now for the seven year war"

"1592 to 1598, Japan withdrew allowing the Ming dynasty and Joseon to have a strategic victory."

"Battle of Sekigahara."

"1600, Tokugawa clan won."

"Invasion of Ryukyu."

"1609, Satsuma domain claimed victory and made Ryukyu a vassal state."

"Summer war."

"1866, Chōshū claimed victory."
This went on, one war after another, back and forth between teacher and student going back to back with question and answer. Then finally, the battle between teacher and student came to an end.

"Last one. You've been right so far. The Genpei War."

"1180 to 1185, the Minamoto clan won." Ichigo answered with a grin.

"Incorrect. It ended in 1186." Tsukishima replied.

The grin on the boy's lips never faltered. "1185." He replied.

"Excuse me?"

"It ended in 1185 sensei. It's right there in your textbook." He said as he pointed toward the book that was now resting in the teacher hands. When the man looked down at the page and read, he closed the book suddenly.

Everyone in the class cheered for their new classmate. "Being a man of my word, this class doesn't need to take the exam. However!" He called out, silencing the class. "If I find out that any of you told someone that you don't need to take the exam and they come to me complaining, I will make sure that individual takes the exam, and those double questions I already mentioned." He explained as he set his book down on his desk.

"How did you do that?" Grimmjow asked in a hushed tone.

"I do a lot of reading." Ichigo said with a grin. "History is really fascinating, i love it."

Grimmjow shook his head, "I can't stand it. I'm horrible with it."
Without warning, Ichigo placed his hand on the blue haired teen's shoulder which caused him to jump and move away slightly.

Ichigo released his shoulder quickly after this, "Sorry, didn't know you were that jumpy, but don't worry, I'll help you with homework and everything."
Raising a brow, Grimmjow sighed. It seemed he just got a study partner, the most interesting study partner that he could find, that was for sure. 'Ichigo, I'm going to learn just what you are. I'm gonna find out your secret, even if it kills me.'
