Renji had remained where he was taken aback by Urahara's sudden agreement. He would probably remained their for some time if he hadn't sensed a hollow. He didn't need to look at his phone to know he was the closest, but he pulled it out of his pocket anyway. He didn't bother looking at the map, instead he glanced at the clock. It was 6:05 am.

"I might as well deal with this hollow." He thought out loud "I have 24 hours to kill anyway." He flashstepped in the direction of the hollow wearing a smug grin the likes of which he hadn't worn since his defeat to ichigo.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The familiar sound of clashing swords could be heard, echoing off the walls as the two shinigami; Kuchiki Ruki and Kurosaki Ichigo were sparring.

Rukia had been guilted into training ichigo by urahara, she had originally protested she had never been confident with her sword skills so she was even less comfortable with training ichigo on an advanced level. However training him reminded her of the time she had spent in his closet and around him before she was Arrested and taken to the soul society even having been almost executed as Aizen revealed true intentions.

In truth, ichigo was far Superior in both speed and strength. And as such on Rukia next attack his block sent her several meters backwards though the air. She landed on her feet never letting on that she was struggling, and all the wail acting as if she was going easy on him. She raised her zanpakutō above her head and charged at ichigo. Her opponent however lowered his, his eyes on his weapon instead of her. Rukia ran faster annoyed by how over confident he was acting and was determined to take advantage of it.

Ichigo was still staring at his zanpakutō"what are these made from anyway?" rukia hadn't been expecting him to start a conversation and so she slowed her pace and without really understanding what ichigo meant replied "why are you asking such stupid question's?"

ichigo looked up at rukia and answered her question "well their not metal cos, it comes from inside me,, but it still makes that sound when I hit stuff with it" Ichigo's comment caused rukia to stumble and almost trip over. Rukia still angered spoke to ichigo as if he was an idiot. "of course it not metal, its made from the spirit energy you produce."

"i know that" ichigo said with a groan "but what I don't get is, if its made from spirit energy, why cant a quincy or a hollow just absorb it, I mean they do feed on spirit energy and all" rukia was almost shocked, not at the question its self, but more that Ichigo would be so observant. Once she herself couldn't answer straight off without having time to think about it. "you really are an idiot sometimes ichigo, if you want I can draw you a picture so you can understand it later" Rukia covered her inability to answer the question by talking down to ichigo. Ichigo listened to what she said and shuddered when she mentioned drawing a picture "i guess it doesn't really matter as long as they can't." rukia had said that to try and distract him from that topic, be she was still offended by his reaction about her drawing.

"ichigo" rukia said softly moving closer to him

looking up at her again "what,,?" ichigo spoke softly

"your an idiot!" she shouted, as she hit him in the stomach.
