Ch4
The orange haired soul reaper was on his way to squad 10 barracks where he had agreed to meet with his new captain. He was walking thinking about what had just happened with Soi Fon, and wished that that moment could have lasted forever. A thought popped into his mind 'the meeting with the head captain took a long time, I was supposed to see Toshiro after my meeting, is he still waiting for me?' Ichigo quickly started to pick up his pace he started running, but went to a shunpo soon after. The young man was speeding towards the barracks.
When the young man finally had the front door to the barracks in sight, he saw a small figure standing next to the gate. Not long after he was able to see that the figure was no other than Toshiro, the young man gulped when he saw that the captain had an angered face. When Ichigo stopped right in front of the white haired captain, he prepared himself to receive a speech.
He was surprised when he the captain spoke calmly and asked "Where have you been all this time, I can't believe a meeting took that long." The orange haired soul reaper replied back with his right hand scratching the back of his head "Yeah, the meeting dragged on. Some unexpected things happened." Toshiro looked at his new recruit, and said "I could tell, I felt huge spiritual pressures coming from you and captain of squad 2, and your clothes are all torn up." Ichigo looked down where he found many holes on his clothes, he let out a small amount of laughter, before he composed himself again. The orange haired soul reaper spoke out "I'm sorry I made you wait." The captain looked at him, and said "It's fine, but let's just show you around it's getting really late."
The white haired captain led Ichigo through the barracks showing him all the different areas, as they were taking the tour a couple of the squad members passed them. They immediately greeted the captain, and then Toshiro introduced them to the new member (Ichigo). The tour was coming to an end, the captain had shown the newbie all around his new home, before he spoke "Well, there is only one place left to take you." Ichigo looked at him with a questioning look the captain saw that he was wondering what it was and quickly spoke "You haven't seen your room." Ichigo face palmed himself as he thought 'I can't believe I forgot about my room.' Both of them walked down a corridor, and came to a door. The captain opened the door, and the orange haired boy was surprised how simplistic the room was. The captain spoke out while showing the boy around "You are allowed to decorate your room to your liking, but the soul society doesn't have as many things as the world of the living." With a small pause before continuing "but if you want to can order somethings to be brought over from the world of the living to make your move as smooth as possible." Ichigo nodded his head and replied "Thank you, I would like that."
When the captain had finished showing the room he said "Well you should get some rest, it's getting late, and you've had a long and exhausting day." Ichigo said "I agree, some rest would do me good." As the captain was walking out he spoke out again "I almost forgot, my room is 2 doors down." When the captain slowly walked away he heard Ichigo mutter something very quietly but he was able to hear it "Thank you for taking me in, and I hope we can become really good friends Toshiro." The captain grew a small smile when he heard those words.
Ichigo was now alone in the room, he closed the door, and walked towards his bed. He placed his zanpakto on the wall beside his bed, before laying down himself. The young soul reaper started to think out loud to himself "At least this new life won't be boring." And soon after saying his thoughts the boy fell asleep.
The young soul reaper woke up, and lay still for a moment, before he got up from the bed to look around the room in closer detail. He saw a dresser on one side of the room and decided to see what was in it. He was surprised to find that it was full of shihakusho. Ichigo thought it would be a good idea to change his clothes since the pair he was wearing were torn up. Once he finished changing he decided to pick up his zanpakto, and go to the captains' office.
When Ichigo made it to the Captains office, he knocked on the door and quickly heard a voice "Come in." as he opened the door, he saw Rangiku sleeping on the sofa. He decided not to ask, and quickly asked "Captain, is there something for me to do today?" Toshiro replied "No, I was going to give you a free day today, to make you comfortable." With a small stop before continuing "But you know, you should wake up earlier than you did, our squad is known for its hard work." Ichigo slowly pointed at the lieutenant laying on the sofa and said "What about her." The captain put his hand on his face and said "She's a lost cause." The orange haired soul reaper than lightly muttered out "I guess you're right, every time I've seen her she always looked like she was slacking." The young captain couldn't help but let out a small amount of laughter.
Ichigo left after being dismissed, when the orange haired soul reaper was alone in the hall way, he started to think of ways to pass the free time received. He finally decided to go talk to Rukia and Renji, on his way to the squad 6 barracks to meet Renji he came across many friends that he had made while he was a substitute soul reaper. He was praying that he wouldn't run into anyone from squad 11 because he didn't really feel like fighting.
When he finally made it to the squad 6 barracks he searched for Renji, when they both came eye to eye Ichigo could tell that the lieutenant of squad 6 was surprised to see him. They both talked for a while, before Ichigo asked if he wanted to come with him to go and see Rukia. The lieutenant replied "I wish I could but I have many duties as the lieutenant of this squad." Ichigo understood, and quickly left to see Rukia.
The something happened when he went to see her, she was happy to see Ichigo, but couldn't leave the squad because of her workload. Rukia tried to give Ichigo some ideas of what to do, but the orange haired soul reaper said that he could figure something out.
Ichigo was wondering around the seireitei, and after walking for a couple of hours he found a spot in the forest that he thought was really soothing for some reason. He took his blade and set it next to a tree as he laid down on the grass. He suddenly fell sound asleep in the open forest.
What the orange haired soul reaper didn't know about was that someone was watching him from one of the tree branches. This person was no other than Soi Fon, she had been following the boy around all day, and she was not pleased about anything that he was doing. She started thinking to herself 'How can this man be so strong, but he just slacks off all day, and now he is just sleeping in the middle of the day. Soi Fon decided it would be best if she casually walked up to the laying down soul reaper, and gave him a good talking to without hinting him that she had been tailing him all this time.
Ichigo was suddenly woken up when he was kicked, it wasn't a hard kick, but it was enough to convey a message. He didn't know who had just kicked him, so he stood up about to yell when he meet Soi Fon's eyes. Not a single word came from Ichigo's mouth which confused the squad 2 captain, she wondered why Ichigo didn't get mad about being woken up in that manner. She pushed the thought to the back of her head as she proceeded to speak "Kurosaki, why did I find you sleeping the day away?" Ichigo looked at her before responding "Hello Soi Fon, I don't have any work today, and no one is available today, so I decided to find peace." The captain of squad 2 didn't even notice that the orange haired soul reaper hadn't used honorifics for her. Ichgo continued to talk "Why are you here Soi Fon, Don't you have work to do?" The captain lost all train of thought when asked this question, and couldn't find anything to say. Ichigo noticed that she looked worried, so he just talked "Well if you don't have anything to do today, how about I give you some company for the day." Soi Fon didn't know how to respond to this, in reality she knew that she had tons of paper work, but she just piled it all on her lieutenant.
Soi Fon started to calm herself down, so she could start thinking again, after some thought she decided to speak out loud "Fine, what do you have in mind." Saying that with a harsh tone. Ichigo looked at her with a smile, well if you want we could walk around the forest for a while, or we could just sit here and talk. She decided to stay and talk, because she thought that it would be the best way to get information. The two of them sat down with their backs against trees, the soon started to talk, and as the time went by, she was surprised how easy it was to talk to him, and how good it felt. Ichigo felt the same way, he didn't think that the conversation would be like this considering her personality. The young man liked this side of her, and wanted to spend as much time as he could with her. They were both surprised when they looked up at the sky to see that it had turned to night.
Soi Fon said "I think that I should be heading back to my squad." When she said that Ichigo was saddened by her words, and accidently said something "I really enjoyed the time we spent together, do you think we could do it again sometime?" The woman was surprised when she heard him say that, but she quickly replied as instinct "Yeah, I would like that too…" she cut herself short not knowing what she was about to say next. Ichigo smiled when he heard her say that, and said "How about we meet up here, early in the morning tomorrow, to talk some more." She looked at Ichigo with a questioning look and replied "What time in the morning, I like to be exact." The young man was shocked that she even agreed to meet with him, and without thinking he said "How about 6:00 A.M.?" Soi fon looked at him, and nodded her head. Ichigo smiled, before saying one last thing "I'll see you tomorrow Soi Fon. Hope you have sweet dreams." Soi Fon couldn't help but blush a bit from those last words he said, but turned her head to not show. They both went their separate ways as the moonlight shined on them.
