"I…Ichi…." A fuzzy but somehow familiar voice echoed around the darkness Ichigo found himself in

"Who's there!" Ichigo yelled out as he looked around the darkness for anything.

"Ichi…" the strange voice echoed around him once more.

"Dammit answer me!" Ichigo yelled, smashing his teeth together in a grit.

"GOOOD MORNING IIIIIICHIGOOOOO!" Suddenly breaking through the abyss was his father's voice.

Instantly realizing this was another one of his father's dumb "sneak attacks" Ichigo opened his eyes and grabbed his dad's head and smashed him to the floor.

'I guess that was all a dream-' Ichigo began to think only to stop as a bright green bang fell into his vision.

"Tch well done my daughter," His father grunted out trying to maneuver out of Ichigo's hand.

"Daughter…" Ichigo muttered only for his eyes to widen as he felt the subtle swish of his new addition on his chest and the sight of his thin petite hand that grabbed his father's head.

"Yep, my pride and joy! You definitely inherited your mother's beau- ACK!" Before Isshin could finish Ichigo punched him in the gut before rushing over to the bathroom tripping over his own two feet, and nearly falling on his face.

"Ichigo break-" Yuzu who came up the stairs to tell her meddlesome father and older sister the great news was almost run over by said older sister though thankfully even in his haste Ichigo made sure no harm came to her.

"Sorry Yuzu!" Ichigo yelled, cringing at the high-pitched voice that came out.

Finally reaching his destination Ichigo stopped in front of the full-body mirror nestled in a little corner.

There Ichigo saw possibly the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen, her hair being mostly a mint green color, with highlights of black, and in the middle specks of orange which fall all the way to full almost bubble-like butt.

Her eyebrows share similar colors though more heavily in favor of the base green with its thin area, her eyes were large with an innocent touch making her look like she couldn't hurt a fly, but with a powerful glare, it could quickly turn the opposite.

Those dark hazelnut-colored eyes bring a powerful but cute air to the girl in the mirror.

The rest of her body was not so dissimilar to the centaur from what is increasingly now seeming like not a dream but reality.

Instead of being covered by the thin white armor, her near-pale complexion was covered by Ichigo's pajamas which he wore when he encountered the shinigami last night her small but toned form made the outfit incredibly baggy on her with the only thing holding up her shirt was the large breast which stuck making the rest of the shirt lift not ever reconnecting with the skin till it went past her childbearing hips that indicated a more mature form than the fifteen-year-old Ichigo was expecting.

Her pants were in a similar position with plenty of pant legs dragging across the floor but still sticking onto her plump form because of the tightness of the pants from her bountiful thighs and ass.

The first thing Ichigo thought when seeing this reflection was of a girlfriend wearing her boyfriend's much larger outfit making it exceedingly cute, but then the reality set in.

This wasn't some sort of dream girlfriend he was seeing in the mirror, but indeed himself an odd humanized version of the centaur girl he became last night which meant a single thing;

That shinigami did this to him somehow, but she must be back to that soul society place by now, right? A terrifying chill went down his curved spine. She must have, like many gods he's heard about, tricked him. For what reason he did not know.

"Is my lovely daughter finally realizing her femininity and deciding to touch up a bit?" Isshin's voice could be heard through the thin wood of the door, adding to the many conflicts burning in his head.

'They think I was always like this, but yet only their thoughts, and memories have changed it seems, but why? If she has the power to change me this much, why not my clothes and my mind too? Just so she can have a show?' Ichigo thought, gritting his teeth further trying desperately to untangle the Gordian Knot that was his mind.

"I probably shouldn't interrupt this beautiful moment of discovery but you should get dressed for school, your friends are waiting outside." Isshin's voice broke out once leading to another layer of terror shooting through Ichigo's body.

'Shit I have to change…also what about my friends? Maybe I just should tell dad?'

"Oh, my beautiful daughter you don't have to tell such a far tale if you feel like you've always been a boy. that's that daddy will always love you no matter if you're his daughter, son, or some sort of centaur now give daddy a big ol' hug!"

'Urgh- no thanks that might send the wrong message to him, and I do not want to deal with that mess, should I just tell him I am sick and try to stay home?'

"Oh my poor daughter I understand it's your time, isn't it? You can stay home. Does daddy need to get you anything? I know your mother always loved this-wait! Could it be? I know you and Keigo have been getting close… Am I finally going to be a granddad!? Oh, what joy! Do you know yet?'

'NOPE! NOPE! NOPE! Not trying that method- dammit dad why do you have to be such a loon…ugh, I might just have to deal with doing to school and try figuring it out from there,'

"Ugh, give me a sec I'll be out in a second," Ichigo yelled out once more, cringing at the sound of his voice.

"Don't worry you were taking so long I decided to grab your uniform for you," Isshin said while opening the bathroom door a creak and sliding into the male school uniform.

"I am still surprised they let you wear that, but I guess when your dad owns the second largest hospital in Kakura Town and is really good friends with the owner of the first I guess, they can't do much huh?" His dad's voice got quieter as he talked most likely walking away from the door.

'At least he did that…' Ichigo thought before looking at the uniform on the ground, dreading the message it stood for.

'C'mon Ichigo it's gonna be fine, rush take off your clothes and then rush to put on your uniform, not much to it, you're not gonna see them.'

Ichigo did a few inhales and exhales before quickly lowering his hands down to the bottom of his shirt and as quickly as he could he threw it off of him, suddenly he could feel his new tits spring froth for a moment it was a relaxing sensation having them free but Ichigo quickly shook his head and closed his eyes tight before slowly trying to put on his new outfit while keeping his eyes close.

After a few close calls, Ichigo finally got his uniform to fit, his pants were easier to deal with though trying to fit the obviously too-tight pants onto his legs was hell.

With a slight pinkage dusting his pale face Ichigo finally opened the door and left the bathroom.

With an awkward gait, Ichigo walked through the hallway ending up in his kitchen/living room.

Turning his head he could see Yuzu standing near the table with a pout on her face.

"Ichigo about time you came out of your room, your breakfast is already cold and you need to hurry to school,"

"I am sorry Yuzu…something unexpected happened…" he said, his eyes scanning the room before they landed on the giant hole in the wall left over by the monster.

"It's okay…I am just not gonna cook you dinner" Yuzu said with a light giggle before sticking her tongue out.

"Wha! Don't you dare!"

"Hehe just have to wait and see now hurry you need to get to school soon," Yuzu said with a smile and a hug before walking away and getting ready herself.

With another sigh, Ichigo ran towards the door, put on his shoes, and finally left his house.

"About time you came out of your room Ichigo, I Mizuiro was trying to convince me to leave with you! Can you believe him!" Keigo yelled out while pointing at his black-haired friend.

"Miss.Ochi is gonna yell at us for being late if we don't hurry up," Mizuiro said with a shake of his head before slowly walking away.

"Geez we can talk her out of giving us a tardy, you know she has a soft spot for Ichigo," Keigo said with a shrug before following behind Mizuiro.

"She only has a soft spot for Ichigo because I am friends with her," Mizuiro responded with a light chuckle.

"Huuuh what do you mean!?" Keigo yelled out before rushing and butting his face right in front of Mizurio.

"Let's just say some of my lady friends are friends of Miss. Ochi and they might share gossip with her," Mizuiro said with a shrug and a smile.

"Wait a minute lady friends!" Keigo yelled out his eyes wider than before.

'It's good to see that in all of this chaos these goofballs are the same no matter what, I was a tad worried that one of them would start hitting on me or something,' Ichigo thought with a smile as he tuned out of his friend's wild antics.

'I wonder if I am stuck like this? it can't be, there must be some way to fix this…I just have to find that damn Shinigami! But I don't really have any leverage against them, I don't even know if I have that power anymore…and if I did…do I want to use it?'

Ichigo let out another sigh as he entered the high school campus, and quickly found his way to class.

Ichigo took a quick look at the wall and quickly found a clock sur[isingly the trio made it just in time with a wave to Miss. Ochi, Ichigo walked over to his seat and prepared to go through this very strange day as the bell rang.

'I think the best chance of finding that shinigami is finding another one of those hollow things…unless she made those up and they actually work together? That would complicate things…still, I think that's the first step…though how would I find one? I feel like Alice going down the rabbit hole! Maybe go back to the first step and find a ghost? No that would be unreliable-'

"Class I would like to introduce a brand new transfer student!" Miss. Ochi said with a clap.

'That's strange…'

"I wonder if it's a chick?" Keigo muttered near Mizuiro, but loud enough for Ichigo, and probably most of the class to hear.

"So what if it is? I doubt they'll be as hot as Ichigo or Orihime," A random student answered.

A sickening shiver went down Ichigo's spine…it wasn't incorrect Ichigo himself believes that but to hear another man say that about you is unnerving.

Suddenly as if to distract his thoughts the doors opened and an incredibly familiar face walked through.

"Hello my name is Rukia Kuchiki, I hope we can all be good friends," The shinigami from last night did a little bow as introduced herself to the class.

'How can the other see her!? Why is she here!? Does she wish to torture me more!?' These thoughts bombarded Ichigo's mind as he stared at her with wide eyes.

Ichigo sat still, his breath hitched as he stared into her purple eyes, as she introduced herself to the many students in his class before she walked close to him.

"Hello, it's nice to meet you!" She said with an incredibly high-pitched tone as if to appear cutesy before she extended her hand.

[Say anything you're dead.

We'll talk after class.

I'll explain everything]

In her hand there was a few notes written, seeing these Ichigo grit his teeth before looking at the small girl and nodding,

"My name is Ichigo Kurosaki nice to meet you,"

"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO ME!?" Ichigo hollered at Rukia as soon as they were away from any pesky listeners.

"You yell at an innocent lady, how uncouth," Rukia replied with a bout of crocodile tears.

"Shut up, I don't have the time to deal with your bullshit, now explain!" Ichigo yelled out his signature glare upped a thousand percent and seemed to have the aura of death itself around them.

"...I don't know,"

"What do you mean you don't know!" Ichigo yelled as he got closer to her face.

"I don't know…you suddenly became a hollow- er at least a mixture of shinigami and hollow when you took my powers, I don't understand it myself, maybe you had some innate hollow reishi in your konpaku and with the activation of my power it became activated…I don't know, konpaku structure wasn't something I studied hard on…but for this I..am sorry…" Rukia muttered as she looked down to the ground, her voice low and slightly off.

…was it an accident? But how can I trust her?

"How can I trust you, and the fact this isn't one big prank on me?" Ichigo asked, his voice much more tolerable.

"...I lost my powers when I gave them to you, and because of that I am stuck here, there is no reason to lie,"

"Is that the reason my friends can see you?"

Rukia simply nodded before speaking again.

"It's a gigai, it's meant for shinigami to heal and restore their power in the human world, hopefully by regaining my powers you'll lose the powers I loaned you…but in the meantime…I need you to do my job,"

As soon as he heard those ending words Ichigo shook his head and crossed his arms.

"No! No way I am not turning back into that centaur thing! That wasn't part of the original deal! Not to mention that it was only for my family!"

"I see.." Rukia muttered before putting on a bright red glove with a flaming skull pattern stitched onto it.

"What are you about to do!?" Ichigo yelled out as he took a few steps back but it was in vain as Rukia rushed at him and quickly punched him.

Once more the centaur form from last night pushed out of Ichigo's now unconscious body.

"What the fuck!" Ichigo yelled once again as he pointed at his body laying on the floor.

"Don't-Huff-Worry-Huff-About-Huff-It" As Rukia huffed and spoke, Ichigo could feel something tugging on his horse fur- 'god that's a weird thought'- turning around, he could see Rukia managing to climb and sit on his horse part.

"Hey! I don't want to do this! And I certainly don't want you on me!" Ichigo yelled out before attempting to do what he saw a few times in the media and buck the small girl off his back(?)

Surprisingly Rukia was holding on quite well, even managing to scoot closer and loop her arms around Ichigo's torso.

"You're not going to get me off, now hurry up and listen we need to head somewhere!"

It took a few more tries but Ichigo relented, and since he didn't know how to get back into his body he listened to Rukia.

"This is a lot more fun than I thought it was gonna be, though I can't see, but still," Rukia said with what Ichigo could presume to be a smile.

"Whatever just don't move around too much back there…it feels weird," Ichigo huffed out, he couldn't believe this, he was her ride now!? What other sort of bullshit was she gonna add to it.

"Just so you know I am not going to jump gates or do any pony shows for you," Ichigo grumbled

"Hmm, I think so too, I think you're a bit too heavy to do any jumping or shows," Rukia replied in a smug tone.

"Sh-Shut up!" Ichigo yelled out with a small blush.

Rukia only let out a few giggles before stopping.

"We're here," She said before hopping off.

Ichigo looked around and found himself in a young child's playground.

"What are we doing here?' Asked as he continued to look around.

"Just wait," Rukia said while pulling out a phone.

BEEP BEEP

With the cry of the phone suddenly a dark hole appeared and a spider-like hollow crawled through before rushing off a young boy's spirit which Ichigo just spotted -hungered for-

With the grit of his teeth, he jumped over the fencing to run after the hollow

"Stop!"

"Huh, what's wrong!?" Ichigo yelled annoyed.

"He's just a random stranger, isn't he? So why should you care?"

"I can't just stand here when he's being attacked before my very eyes!"

"Don't be so naive! A shinigami must treat all souls equally just because they're close by, just because it's convenient…it doesn't work like that" all the while she was ranting, the little boy that the hollow was chasing nearly tripped.

Ichigo turned but once more Rukia yelled out.

"If you intend to help that boy, make up your mind to help all souls! You must make the commitment to go anywhere…and even be willing to sacrifice your life!"

As soon as she ended her speech the little boy suddenly tripped, and within an instant, Ichigo raised his hand and the familiar large bow formed and he fired severing one of the six legs the spider hollow had, making it retreat to where it came from.

"So you made a choi-"

"Shut up! Who cares about commitment!? I saved this boy because I wanted to! And if you're not lying to me, what about you?"

"Wha-"

"You risked your life to save me last night. Did you think of your duty as a shinigami!? When you put yourself at risk it doesn't matter!" Ichigo could feel the hollow returning creeping up on him

"At the very least I-" before Ichigo could finish a familiar blue arrow streaked past Ichigo and right into the mask of the hollow killing it instantly.

"Hmph it seems you have morals, but that's for later. Why have you changed everyone's memories and attempted to replace Ichigo Kurosaki!"
