Hollow's

Ichigo's P.O.V

I'm at the kid's house by myself right now while Renji's patrolling the town. I'm sitting down on a chair in right now in my Soul Reaper form while Zangetsu is lying down on the couch in his sword form. I'm on my cell talking to Kisuke. "Hey, Kisuke," I said.

"What is it Ichigo?" Kisuke answered on his line.

"Could you bring our gigai's over?" I ask.

"Why?" Kisuke asked.

"Because-" I said while getting cut off.

The kid came in the house and put his bag on the couch where Zangetsu was sitting. I take my cell off of my ear for a minute. "Hey kid," I said. "Get your bag off of Zangetsu."

"Whose Zangetsu?" Li asked.

"My Zanpakuto," I said. "Which is my sword."

"I remember you telling me about that yesterday, Soul Reaper." Li said.

"Why you little…" I said.

"Ichigo," Kisuke said. "You still on the line?"

I put my phone back up to my ear, "Yeah, Kisuke." I said. "I'm here."

"What's with the background noise of someone talking?" Kisuke asked.

"We ran into some trouble yesterday," I said. "Well, we just found out that someone could see us is all." I stare at the kid making sure he would get the bag off of Zangetsu.

"Is everything okay?" Kisuke asked.

"Yeah," I said. "He's letting me stay at his house along with Renji."

"That's good." Kisuke said.

"There's another thing," I said. "There was a girl who could see us as well." I explained the situation to Kisuke about how we found two kids at a school trying to fight the hollow and all.

"So the kid said that you can stay there as long as you have a gigai." Kisuke said.

"Yeah," I said. "So I want you to bring my body along with Kon and a gigai for Renji."

"How do you suggest I should bring them over?" Kisuke asked.

"By car," I answered. "And if you don't mind I'd like you to bring them over soon."

"Sure thing, Ichigo," Kisuke said.

"I don't want you to have Kon in my body though." I said. "He'd just want to roam around and get in trouble."

"Right," Kisuke said. "Will do."

"Thanks." I answered. I hang up my phone. "Could you please get your bag off of Zangetsu? How many times do I have to tell you?"

The kid finally took his bag off of Zangetsu and put it on the floor next to the couch. He sat in the chair across from me. We had a staring contest for about an hour until the doorbell rang. "I got it." Li said as he got up.

"Yo, Ichigo," Renji busted in the house inside his gigai. "Look who I ran into."

"Hey Kisuke," I said.

"Renji gave me the kids address." Kisuke said. "Your gigai is in the back."

"Thanks," I said. "Just let me get Zangetsu and I'll be right there."

I grabbed Zangetsu, went to the back of his car, and climbed inside to get my body. I noticed that Kon was tied up in the back. "How come you're tied up back here?" I ask kneeling in front of him.

"Renji didn't want me making any noise up in front," Kon said as soon as I took the gag off of his mouth. I was gripping onto his head with my left hand.

"I see." I said. "I bet it was nice and quiet too." I thought. Kon was also tied up so I took the ropes off that were around his arms and legs. "I guess Renji really didn't want you making any noise, huh?"

"Yeah," Kon said. "He was really cruel about it too. I wanted to sit up in the front but he wouldn't let me since I was a stuffed animal."

"I wonder how Renji managed to get Kon tied up." I thought. "He must have had a tough time about it." I walk out of Kisuke's car and back into the kid's house. "I see you tied Kon up." I said.

"He was being annoying," Renji said.

"I bet," I said.

"Don't say that you're on his side, Ichigo." Kon said. "I thought you were my friend."

"You're being overly paranoid, Kon." I said.

Just then we felt strong spiritual pressure. "That feeling," Kisuke said.

"I know," I said. I guess Kon gets is wish about roaming around. He doesn't have to say anything about wanting to; I just know that we always wants to be inside my body when he gets the chance. I put my hand inside Kon to get the Soul Candy out of him and I swallow it.

"You could have warned me about sticking your hand in my body you know," Kon said (Kon is now in my body.)

"There's no time." I said.

All of us go outside including the kid. The kid's cell starts ringing and picks it up. "What is it Sakura?" Li asked.

"You feel it to, right Li?" Sakura asked on her end.

"Yes," Li said. "But I want you to stay inside."

"I'll be fine, Li." Sakura said.

"Remember what happened last time?" Li asked.

"I know but-," Sakura said.

"No buts about it Sakura," Li said. "You're staying home." Li hung up his cell and they arrived in the park.

Sakura is at her house and she throws her cell on her bed after she hung up. "I'm still going." Sakura said.

"Where are you going Sakura?" Kero asked.

"Just to the park," Sakura said.

"Be careful Sakura," Kero said. "I feel something strange there. Maybe I should go with you."

"I'll be fine," Sakura said. "Don't worry."

Sakura arrives at the park minutes later. "Sakura," Syaoran said. "I thought I told you to stay."

"I wanted to come," Sakura said. "I'm more prepared this time."

Renji is now in his Soul Reaper form. "Ready Ichigo?" Renji asked.

"Like I always am," I said while facing the hollow.

"Release!" Sakura said. She grabbed her staff. "JUMP!" Sakura said after pulling THE JUMP Card out. Sakura had also pulled out THE SWORD Card. "SWORD!"

The hollow started to come after Sakura instead of Ichigo and Renji. "Why is it coming after me?" Sakura asked quietly. Sakura jumped in the air to dodge the hollow. After she landed the hollow came after her again.

The hollow had its mouth a few inches from Sakura. Li runs up to Sakura and pushes her out of the way. "Getsuga Tenshou!" I yell.

My attack defeats the hollow before it could make a snack out of Li. "You might want to be careful, kid." I said. "Or else you might make a meal for the hollow." I rest Zangetsu on my right shoulder to keep him there for now.

"You're not done yet Ichigo." Kisuke said. "There's another one."

"Now's my chance," Sakura thought. Sakura pulls out THE WATERY Card. "Help us defeat the hollow in front of us, WATERY Card."

THE WATERY Card is heading towards the hollow and destroys it and then returns to Sakura in the card form. "Is that the kid's power?" Kisuke asked.

"It sure is." Li said.

THE JUMP and THE SWORD Card both went back into their card forms. Sakura also put her staff back into a necklace form. "I got lots of cards to help me defeat the hollows." Sakura said.

"Sounds interesting," Kisuke said. "But I should be getting back to the store now. See you later Ichigo, Renji."

"Later, Kisuke," I said. Kisuke had left and we went back to the kid's house for the day.
