End and epilogue
From this beginning I want to thank Deidara Kamiruzu for adding me as a favorite author, you have no idea how much it inspires me to know that.
Tell me, how are things going?
One year after the battle.
It was night when Ichigo came home, he had dark circles down of the eye due to the exhaustion that the university caused him, although he would be lying if he said he did not expect that.
He opened the door of his home and left his backpack on the first sofa he saw, fortunately, his father no longer greeted him with a kick to the face.
When Ichigo went up the stairs to try to sleep at least 8 hours, a female voice that had a mocking tone said to him - I see that the school has done you good -
The half-human turns to see Rukia and despite his tiredness, this with a small smile responds - I never felt better -
The purple-eyed shinigami asks if he can accompany them tomorrow.
- Fortunately, yes - The orange-haired man answers - Tomorrow is a day of rest, but I honestly think it would be best if we talk tomorrow, I don't think I'll be able to stand up any longer -
- Okay, just remember to leave your closet open -
The next morning.
Right now Ichigo, his siblings, Renji and Rukia were at the Karakura fair.
First, they had gone to the games, where Renji almost threw up on the roller coaster, then they went to the different functions of shows among which there were magicians, comedians, clowns, etc. and right now they were eating.
- Ichigo, during our walk I have seen you distracted, is something wrong? - The black-haired shinigami asks.
Ichigo turns to the sky and sees how the autumn leaves are gently caressed by the wind and lifted by it.
He turns to Rukia again and responds - Nothing, this place only brings me good memories–
- Oh -
- Rukia? Has something happened in soul society? -
- Well - And Rukia begins to tell everything we know, but also what happened after Galen's arrival
Where we left it in the previous chapter
Soldiers clad in scale armor, leather vests, and chain mail dug pits several meters deep to bury the dead shinigami, though they expected to fight the undead, so this was disappointing.
The doctors were dedicated to treating the wounded, Orihime had her face covered by a white mask of an angel, so no one recognized her, and she did not use her powers so that they would not be suspicious.
After burying the dead, they let the shinigamis show respect to their fallen comrades, they also loaded the wounded onto horses and on makeshift stretchers, those who could more or less stand upright were supported by the shinigamis and Angelica's men.
After a few days, they reached the seireitei.
The shinigami who had stayed to defend the seireitei were glad to see their comrades return, but immediately after they saw soldiers they had never seen accompanying them and wondered what had happened.
Commander Yamamoto entered along with Emperor Galen and the men of each followed, quickly the fourth division took the wounded they had to heal them.
Everyone looked expectantly at Galen and his army, although they could assume that they received help from them, they still did not know who they were.
Captain Komamura quickly approached where Yamamoto and Galen were - Commander, it is certainly good to see that I return, but can you tell me who is accompanying you? -
With his serene voice, the commander responds - They helped us during the battle ... -
The anthropomorphic fox looked at Galen and asked him - Are you the one leading them? -
With a smile, he extended his hand and said - Yes, it is a pleasure to meet you - Komamura accepted his greeting and said - The pleasure is mine, my name is Komamura -
- And I'm Galen -
Present
Ichigo was paying close attention, the reason being that he and his friends had been teleported home the first night after the battle, this one so that the shinigami wouldn't find out who they were.
And also a few days ago Galen had told him that Soi fon came up with a plan so that he can return to soul society and Angelica without the SS discovering that Ichigo already had contact with Angelica since that could generate certain conflict.
Part of what he told he is to be on the lookout for the next arrival of his shinigami friends.
Back to the story told by Rukia.
During the first days, there was a lot of tension, the shinigamis were quite suspicious of the arrivals, they could not be blamed after all a few days ago the eleventh division was almost destroyed.
There were also some communication problems, as few in soul society knew a language other than Japanese, luckily Galen brought in several translators.
Fortunately, everything that followed was good, because Galen and Yamamoto reached commercial agreements, therefore Angelica and the SS currently already had trade routes traced and things like chocolate were much more common in soul society and various paintings, poems, novels, etc. created in soul society were very successful in Angelica.
"… Besides a rather interesting offer," Rukia said thoughtfully.
- What thing? - The orange-haired asks
-… - Rukia exhales and sighs - When they found out about your story, they said that it is possible that they can give you back your powers, slowly but it can work. Besides that it should not interrupt your normal life and that they can send shinigamis to monitor the process -
"So this is his plan," Ichigo thinks and then asks - what do you think? -
Looking at him with her amethyst eyes, Rukia tells him - It is your decision, although if you choose, do not doubt that I will accompany you -
Ichigo had already made his decision, he would still respond later so as not to look suspicious - ... Let me think about it -
Two weeks later
Ichigo POV
It was also autumn in soul society, the sight of reddish trees was quite beautiful and the path was covered by their leaves, Ichigo didn't see much change in the seireitei, but in the gate town where he was now, it was quite obvious that there was a certain Western influence in some buildings.
Well, several houses previously made of wood had been remodeled with concrete and the columns were quite elegant and simple.
When I turn to Rukia I see that she has the face of a little girl to whom they are going to give a gift when I turn to see that she is looking I realize that it is not for little, I doubt that she has ever seen a steam cruise, I turn to see Renji and is also impressed.
When we got on the boat, some two guards ask us the reason for our climb, Rukia shows him some papers and hands them to the guards, they raise their eyebrows and then give it to them again - Mr. War hero, someone in the cabin would you like to see it -
The ship is quite large, many people pass through the rooms while talking about various things, most of them about trade.
When I get to the cabin I meet an old acquaintance.
- Ichigo, right? - The black-haired man offers me his hand and continues with - I am Galen, the emperor and I offer you welcome to Angelica -
A small smile escapes my lips and I say to him - It's a pleasure to meet you -
...
End
I want to thank all the people who read this story, I feel that this writing has helped me to test my current skills as a writer.
The truth is that I have been reading how I started this story and I realize that several things I could have done better, the grammar, my way of narrating, and the truth several things that I planned to put at the end I did not do it because I felt that the story was is going to lengthen greatly.
An example is Senna, I planned to put her in but in the end, I did not make sense of it and only left winks. And just like her several other things.
That's why I may make continuation, not a sequel as such, but a one-shot or two to explain some things that in this story I couldn't without seeming filler.
I'll take a little break from writing and then move on to other stories, but not Bleach.
And without further ado, I see you next time.
