Rukia was walking home alone. "Eh, little missy.",A gang leader stood in front of her. "Excuse me, but you're in my way.",Rukia said loudly. "Getting tough now, eh?", He lifted her chin, she smacked his hand away,"Leave me alone!" Rukia pushed him out of the way and ran, but she was confronted with the other gang members. One of the members grabbed her. "Hold her for me will you?",a golden shine came from his hand. Brass knuckles! Ugh..what's with these teenagers!, Rukia couldn't remove from their grasp. "Be ready!" Rukia closed her eyes tightly. She didn't feel anything, she was confused and she opened her eyes. Ichigo was in front of her. She couldn't believe it. No one was holding her, the members were down except the leader. He chuckled,"I'll leave you with your boyfriend!" He ran away. Ichigo trembled then fell on Rukia's chest. Rukia blushed as she fell to her knees. She held Ichigo.

"Owww...you okay?"

"I'm fine..jeez kids these days..."

Ichigo was in her chest, but she didn't mind.

"That was nice of you Ichigo."

"It's not my first time getting punch with brass knuckles..."

Rukia smiled a bit, "Arigato, Ichigo..."
