"Yo, Kingy wake up...ohh Kingy wake up we gotta go to school...KINGY GET UP WE GOTTA GET TO SCHOOL! ZANGETSU AND YOUR SISTERS HAVE ALREADY LEFT! SO GET UP!"

Damn,it's the first day of school...

"Shut up...I'm up."

"YOU SHUT UP! WE GOTTA BE THERE IN 10 MINUTES SO HURRY YOUR ASS UP!"

"You know, if I guessed anybody who cared about being on time for school, it wouldn't be you Shiro."

"I don't. But I wanna get stronger,and this school will get me stronger,SO HURRY UP BEFORE I KICK YOUR ASS!"

"Alright calm down,just let me get dressed."

AT SCHOOL

REG. POV

As Ichigo walked into homeroom with Shiro he saw Soul and Maka sitting at the front table.

"Yo Strawberry! Over here!"

As Ichigo began to walk over to Soul,Shiro wouldn't move.

"What's up with you?"

"I don't know those guys."

"Hey I'm not exactly here to make friends either, but they're gonna let us know where our classes are."

"Whatever..."

Ichigo then took a seat next to Soul,Shiro sat next to Ichigo

"So this is Steins class, doesn't seem that bad." Ichigo said while trying to prop his feet up on the lab table.

"Wait 'till you meet him, he'll get a kick out of your partner." Soul responded.

"I wish he would try something with me..." Shiro said through a smirk.

As he said this the bell rang, and other students began to file in,along with Zangetsu who stood out from the crowd, not only from his height, but by his colorful backpack.

"Hello Ichigo, Shiro."

Soul,and Ichigo just stared,Maka stifled a giggle,and Shiro became hysterical.

"What is the matter, why are you all laughing."

"BAHHHHAAHHAAHAHA YOU DUMBASS! IS THAT YUZUS BACKPACK YOU BORROWED?!"Shiro yelled

"I do not see how the bag I use is of any importance."

"Ya know... you didn't have to bring a backpack, no one else does." Soul said coolly

"Yeah Zangetsu, since we defeated Asura we usually just spar..."Maka continued.

"HAHA YEAH ZANGETSU LISTEN TO THE BOARD THAT AINT BEEN NAILED..."

Soul then looked a little alarmed, he knew what was coming

"Makaaaaaaaa..."

"Whaa" Shiro started

"CHOPPP!"

Shiro was then laying on the ground,dazed.

"What...the...hell...bitch?" Shiro sighed dizzily.

"Want me to do it again?"

"Nah..nah...no..."

"Ok then."

"God, why are you all so damn loud?" Ichigo asked.

"Well I'm sorry we're bothering you Ichigo..." Maka said sarcastically

"Hey, I may be a dick, but at least I don't dress like a 4 year old."

"SHUT UP STUPID STRAWBERRY!"

"SHUT THE HELL UP RUKI-" Ichigo then paused and looked away, a pained expression on his face

'Oh yeah,she's gone...'

"Ichigo... I'm sorry if I struck a nerve..." Maka said sadly

"Nah,you're fine...you just kinda reminded me of someone I cared for once...that's all." With that, Ichigo stood up and left the room.

"Hey Soul,tell this Stein guy I had to go to the bathroom,I gotta go out for a minute."

"Sure thing Carrot top."

With that the door closed,Maka looked pretty down.

"Do not worry Maka. Ichigo is just...hurting." Zangetsu said with the ever present scowl on his face.

"Thank you, Zangetsu..." Maka said.

ICHIGO ON THE ROOF OF THE SCHOOL

I can't stop thinking about what happened...

Why did Aizen have to show up that day...

I was gonna tell her...

Why couldn't I protect them, two people I promised myself to always protect... Are gone.

(Tears fell out of Ichigos eyes)

"GOD DAMMIT!"

Ichigo then slams a fist into the brick wall, leaving a fist imprint.

"Why her? Why Dad? Just... JUST SOMEONE TELL ME WHY!"

Ichigo was on his knees now crying his eyes out.

"Big brother,don't worry I'm here..." Yuzu coed coming out of the door that led to the roof.

"Yuzu...where did you come from?" Ichigo asked.

"I was on my way to class and I saw you walking...I called your name and it seemed like you ignored me so I just followed you up here..."

"Yuzu..."

"Big brother, I'm sorry I followed you, you just looked so sad."

"Naw kiddo, you're ok." Ichigo paused "I guess I just didn't want you to see me like this, I'm supposed to be the strong one."

"Ichigo..." Yuzu started "Since Daddy passed away,you haven't shed a tear,all you've done is work and work to make sure me and Karin were taken care of...I think you need to give yourself time to grieve."

Ichigo then looked down.

"Yuzu, do you remember Rukia?"

Yuzu then sat there for a sec...

"Ichigo...who's Rukia?"

Ichigo then just looked away.

"That's why I can't stop hurting..."

Yuzu looked at Ichigo concerned.

"Ichigo please...tell me what's wrong."

"Alright, hopefully you might remember,she was too much of an idiot to think we would want to remember her after what happened...I was the only one she skipped over before we fought Aizen."

"Ichigo...I thought it was just you and Daddy and the soul reapers that fought Aizen..."

Flashback

"Rukia...what are you doing?"

"I actually needed to talk to you about that."

Rukia then looked up to Ichigo with sad eyes

"What is it midget?"

"Im erasing everyone's memory... After we leave for the fight with Aizen, it'll be as if I was never here."

Ichigo looked at Rukia like she was insane

"WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU DO THAT?" Ichigo yelled

"Ichigo... what if I die, what if I leave and they never see me again. I don't want them to have to grieve..."

"Rukia shut up. You're not going to die, I won't let that happen..."

"Ichigo look at me."

She then grasped both sides of Ichigos face

"You're the only person that can defeat Aizen,I don't want you wasting your time protecting me, that will only take your focus away from the fight."

"Rukia..."

"Please,just let me do this..."

"There's not gonna be any point...I'm gonna make sure nothing happens to you."

"Ichigo... Please."

Ichigo then just frowned and left, leaving Rukia with the odd looking device that would make it seem like she was never there.

(Skip to battle with Aizen)

"Ichigo Kurosaki, how pathetic." Aizen mocked as he layed on the ground, badly beaten.

"Shut...up..." He said as he laid on the dirt

"Haha, still as tough as ever hm... Well then I guess this is farewell, Ichigo Kurosaki."

He then raised his blade up to strike the final blow, but someone jumped in front of the attack.

"NO RUKIA!" Renji yelled after her.

Rukia then fell into Ichigos arms.

"Why...why did you do that..." Ichigo asked shocked

"You fool..."She said weakly "I needed to protect you for once..."

Isshin then stepped up next to Ichigo

"Take her someplace safe, I'll hold him off."

With that Ichigo nodded as he ran off with Renji on his heels

Ichigo then laid her down onto the ground

"Ichigo..." She started.

"Stop talking idiot, you need to save your strength..."

"No...there's gonna be no need for that...its over..." She said sadly

"Rukia...please no..." Renji said with tears streaming down his face.

"Oh...don't cry...please...Renji, you were the best freind I could ever ask for,I can truly say your closer then a brother."

Renji only nodded

"Ichigo..." She started.

Ichigo could only look on helplessly as he held her tiny frame in his arms.

"Ive never met someone I've cared about more than you... youre amazing...I ...I love you...Ichigo Kurosaki..."

With that her eyes went dark and her body went limp.

She was gone.

Ichigo then stood up then handed her to Renji

"Do what you gotta do Kurosaki..."Renji said

"I will"

End flashback

"Big brother...I'm so sorry." Yuzu said sadly.

"It's alright...I guess it feels really good to talk about it,you know."

He then reached over and hugged Yuzu.

"I love you kiddo,don't ever forget that."

He then patted her on the head and headed back to class.
