Sorry about the delay in this chapter; I have been really busy.
Comet1234 – Thanks. I'm also curious to see how this is going; I have many different idea's in my head, and I really want to include all of them, but I don't want this to be a forever going story.
Bleachlove – Thank you; it's good to know that people actually want me to continue this.
fearthescribble – Thanks. Yeah that line was pretty funny; my favorite would still be the line where Ichigo was mocking Toshiro.
Prexistence- I'm not giving any information away about why Rukia isn't coming back to the world of the living, but don't worry, she will still be included in the story and you will find out why.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
When Captain Ukitake entered Rukia Kuchiki's room, he wasn't surprised to see her sitting there staring at nothing. Ukitake has tried several times to send Rukia back to the World of the Living, but every time, she had refused and barely talked to anyone else in the soul society. Even Byakuya Kuchiki was finding it difficult to communicate to her, without raising his voice at her.
"Rukia, you can't stay in here all day. It isn't good for your health," Ukitake said, as he sat down next to her. As predicted, no response. "I am not here to send you to the World of the Living Rukia. I am merely here to try and save you from yourself," Ukitake stated, as he placed his hand on her shoulder. "Why should I believe you?" Rukia asked, in a whisper.
"If I did want to send you to the World of the Living, I would have done so already Rukia. You can't keep avoiding him," Ukitake said, as he watched Rukia tense. "I'm not avoiding him," Rukia said icily, before rising to her feet. "I just don't want to go back."
"Don't lie to me Rukia. Ever since Kurosaki Ichigo rescued you, you have been doing nothing butavoiding him. Didn't you want to be rescued?" Ukitake asked, prompting Rukia to tell the truth. "I was ordered to die and I was willing to do so without harming him. What is happening between me and Kurosaki is no ones business. If I refuse to go back, then don't question me," Rukia said, before she left.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was finally the end of school, and Ichigo couldn't have been happier to leave. Not only did he arrive late to class because of the hollow, he was now also stuck having to share his home with Toshiro. Since when did that little captain ever want to stay at my place? Ichigo thought, as he was walking home. Well I guess it bets having to share a room with Rangiku, Ichigo winced at that thought.
"If you're thinking about me, I'm not interested," Toshiro stated, an evil grin growing on his small face. Ichigo's face when from confused to angry and he bellowed, "Hey! What the hell has gotten into you!? I'm not gay!"
Toshiro chuckled, and then turned to his old self. "So where is Rangiku staying?" Ichigo asked, as he tried to imagine her staying all by herself. "With Orihime Inoue," He answered, just before they arrived at the house. As Ichigo walked inside his house, he was soon greeted by his father foot which was close to hitting him in the face, before Ichigo grabbed it, causing his father to fall. "You're pathetic," Ichigo said, as he waved a confused Toshiro forward. "Who do we have here!?" Isshin wondered, as he looked at the tiny captain. "That's Toshiro; do you mind if he stays here for a while?" Ichigo asked, before Yuzu came in the living room.
"Welcome home Ichigo!" Yuzu rejoiced, before she spotted Toshiro. "I'm Yuzu Kurosaki, are you going to be staying here?" She asked, before Toshiro nodded his head. "Well in that case, dinner is ready!" Yuzu said, before she ran off to the kitchen.
"Let's go," Ichigo instructed as he headed up to his room. When they got there, Toshiro wondered where he was going to sleep and Ichigo seemed to know what he was thinking. "There is a guest room next door, unless you would rather sleep on the floor," Ichigo offered, not happy with the idea of sharing a room.
"There is no way I'm sleeping on your floor Kurosaki. Now if you don't mind, I'm going out," Toshiro said, before he headed out of the window. "Where the hell are you going?!" Ichigo yelled, as he quickly followed him.
He is so annoying, Ichigo thought, "Go back Kurosaki, I'm only going to see Matsumoto," Toshiro said, before they felt this high spiritual pressure. "What is that!?" Ichigo asked, as they noticed the sky was opening and figures were stepping out.
"RUN ICHIGO! LEAVE NOW AND DON'T COME BACK!" Toshiro yelled, as he pulled out his Zanpaktou. Before Ichigo could respond, he could feel two hands dragging him back, away from the fight.
Why is Ichigo being told to run?
Will Ukitake be able to save Rukia from herself?
What is going on with Toshiro?
Who is taking Ichigo away from the fight?
