A/N: Another update today! I'm trying to find something to inspire me to write. I miss writing.
Disclaimer: I do not own bleach.
I am living in some kids closet. This is lame. I really need to think about buying my own apartment, but then there would be no fun in waking up in a room with Ichgio. Ichigo…Have I let him completely take over my heart now? No, because I still think about Renji every single day. I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever actually get over him.
A ring startles me out of my thoughts and I find that it's the alarm for the hollow alerts. I jump up and swing the closet doors open. So lame….
"Ichigo!" he jumps up with his sleepy eyes and a shocked face. When he realizes its me he rubs his eyes and says "Rukia you seriously need to find somewhere else to sleep."
I wave my hand in a dismissive manner. Is it because he doesn't want me around? "We'll worry about that later, I just got a pick up on a hollow. We need to go."
So we leave and find nothing. We spent hours trying to find that hollow and there was no trace of it.
"I know it was here, right here in this spot." I said "The alarm was going off."
"Maybe Aizen sent some of them to spy or something? Either way I think that we need to tell the Soul Society and talk to the others here."
I nodded my head in agreement with him. We went to each of his friend's houses after I made a call to my captain. He had told me to make sure that everyone there was alert and that he would notify the head captain. Everyone seemed to be fine until we got to Orihime's house. There we discovered that Raniku was fast asleep, but there was no Orihime.
"Where would she have gone?" Ichigo asked, and I could tell he was worried. Who wouldn't be, the girl was innocent, and kind of clueless.
"I think that the hollow we were looking for is responsible for this." I said to him, and then I walk over and put my foot on Raniku's head "Oi! Wake up!"
"What the hell?" She shouted and pushed my foot away.
"How is it that a girl goes missing, when you're asleep right there?" Ichigo ask.
"What are you talking about" Raniku ask as she runs her hand through her hair.
"Orihime is not here, and there was a hollow alert earlier. Didn't your alarm go off?" I asked her.
"Oh you mean that thing? I put it on silent. The damn thing is always waking me up."
I was ready to punch her, and I wondered how she ever became a lieutenant?
Ichigo and I were glaring at her when we heard a window slide open and Captain Toshiro came in.
"The Captain Commander is waiting to speak with us." He said.
We entered a room and found the Captain Commander on a screen.
He told us that Orihime had joined sides with Aizen, and that we were not to go after her. She also told the captain and lieutenant to return to the Soul Society. Ichigo begged with him for them to help and the Captain Commander wouldn't budge. I was to return to the Soul Society as well. I had my orders and I felt bad about leaving her, but I knew what I was going to do. I knew the one person who would follow me into hell and come back out, and I was going to go get him.
Don't worry Ichigo, we'll save her. I thought.
