"Kurosaki-kun! Kurosaki-kun!" Orihime yelled as she entered the Kurosaki house. She quickly ran up stairs and threw the door up to Ichigo's room, who was on his bed reading manga. "Kurosaki-kun!!"

"Hey Inoue. Weren't you and Rukia going to be out for the day?" He asked, putting down his manga.

"Kurosaki-kun…please h-…help Kuchiki-san!" Orihime said, trying to catch her breath.

"What! What happened to Rukia?! Is it a Hollow?!" he yelled, running around his room looking for his snow boots. "No time to explain! Follow me, Kurosaki-kun!"

Ichigo and Orihime ran out of the house and on to the snow covered street. "She's at the park!" Orihime yelled as she ran through the snow.

"What exactly happened to Rukia?!"

"…I heard that's what happens if you do it," Orihime said as her and Rukia walked in the park.

"I doubt it. There's no way that that is possible," Rukia laughed as she fixed her hat.

"I don't know, Kuchiki-san, I was told that it has happened to many, many people," Orihime insisted, jumping in front of Rukia.

"Have you ever heard of rumors? I heard they could be very convincing sometimes," Rukia replied as she walked passed Orihime.

Orihime turned around, "Then why don't you try it, Kuchiki-san?" Rukia stopped in her tracks, "Is that a challenge?"

"Yes, let's see if it is true or not," Orihime said, catching up to Rukia.

"Hmm, a Kuchiki never turns down a challenge. I accept, Inoue Orihime. I'll do it!"

"You've got to be kidding me!!" Ichigo yelled as he saw Rukia in the park. "Inoue!! Why did you even bring it up?!?"

"I-I don't know, I'm so sorry, Kurosaki-kun!!" Orihime yelled and bowed at the same time. "You should be apologizing her!!" he yelled.

"WHO THE HELL WOULD BE STUPID ENOUGH TO GET THEIR TONGUE STUCK ON A FREAKIN' LIGHT POST!!!"

Orihime cringed, "Um…I'll get some water, salt, butter, soap and a portable hair dryer!" she said as she ran out of the park.

Ichigo went over to Rukia and kneeled next to her. "You are a real idiot sometimes, Rukia! You and your pride. You should've just said no. Never listen to Orihime!!"

She didn't answer. Her eyes were closed tightly and her breathing was getting louder. "You okay, Rukia?" Ichigo asked with some concern in his voice.

"Id-id sti-stids," Rukia tried to get out, closing her eyes tighter. "It stings?" Ichigo asked as he got up and went behind Rukia.

Great, now he's probably going to hit me or something!! An attack from behind, Ichigo, that's pretty low!!

Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder and saw another hand in front of her face. Ichigo gently moved a lock of Rukia's hair away from her face. "Don't worry, it won't sting for long. Orihime should be here any minute," he said, rubbing her shoulders.

"I-di-go…"

"I'm here!!" Orihime said as she entered the park, "Don't worry Kuchiki-san, you will be better in a second!!"

Ichigo went through the bag of supplies that Orihime had brought. "Um…Let's try the…salt!" Ichigo declared as he pulled it out of the bag.

Attempt 1:

"This might sting, Rukia," Ichigo warned her as he poured the salt on the pole. Rukia squeaked as the salt landed on her cut up tongue. "Okay, now try pulling it off, Kuchiki-san!" Rukia tried to pull her tongue off but it only caused herself more pain.

"Um…," Ichigo went through the bag again, "How about the hair dryer?"

Attempt 2:

After 15 minutes of having the hair dryer against the pole, Ichigo gave up on it. "This is useless!! And it takes to damn long!!" he exclaimed as he through the hair dryer aside and went back to the bag.

"Let's try the…why the hell did you bring soap…and…and butter?" Ichigo yelled while throwing them away. "Aren't they, um…slippery?"

"Wather…wather…" Rukia tried to say. "You thirsty, Rukia?" Ichigo said, bringing the water to her. Rukia shook her head, "Wather de ptole…"

"Ohhh, good one Rukia!"

Attempt 3:

Ichigo poured the water on the pole, making the dry ice wet. After the ice was wet, Rukia successfully pulled her tongue off the pole.

"We did it, Kurosaki-kun!" Orihime exclaimed. "Yes!" Ichigo yelled, "you okay, Rukia?!"

He turned around to see Rukia with her head in the snow. "What's wrong, Rukia?" Ichigo pulled her out of the snow. Her lips were all cut up and bloody, along with her tongue. "Oh! Kuchiki-san!"

"It's okay, Inoue. I'll treat Rukia at my house. It's late, you should go home now," Ichigo said while picking up Rukia, 'just married' style. This surprised both of them. "Oh, Okay, Goodbye, Kurosaki-kun. I'm sorry, Kuchiki-san!" she said as she left the park.

Ichigo and Rukia walked home in silence. When they got to the house, Ichigo carried Rukia right up to his room and put her on his bed. Then he went and got a towel from the bathroom. He gave it to Rukia, who wiped the blood off from her face.

"You know, you're an idiot, right?" he said, taking the towel from her. "Yeahhhh," she just said and laid her face in Ichigo's pillow. "What's wrong now?" Ichigo said, lying next to her.

She turned over. "I lossss de beth," she sighed. Ichigo laughed and put his arm around her.

"Geez, at least you didn't lose your tongue, Rukia."

That was sooooo much fun to write! I have no idea if that is how to get your tongue off a pole but it worked for Rukia so... if you or your friend ever get their tongue stuck on a pole try it!!
