I sit there listening to his explanation. A lot of it won't process in my head. I didn't want to believe it. But I saw that monster with my own eyes. What other reason could it be other than what he's telling me?

After he finished explaining he could see that glazed over look in my eyes from thinking. "Hey were you even listening?"

I nodded. "Yes, I'm just trying to process."

He snorted. "For a second I thought you were zoning out and I thought I was going to have to do something about it."

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever. So what am I going to do now?"

He let out a huff of air. "I don't really know right now. I'd have to talk to Urahara about it."

I sighed but didn't say anything else. From what it sounded like, I wasn't out of danger's way quite yet. But I could see from the look on his face he wasn't going to say. Or at least he wasn't going to say anything right now.

I changed the subject. "When do I go back to school?"

He shrugged. "It depends on how long it takes for your injuries to heal."

I sighed. "So it could be long time then?"

He shrugged and stood up. "I'll be right back." He left the room.

I sighed and slowly laid back down. I fixed my eyes on the ceiling. This was almost too much for me to handle. I could feel my eyes start to water. With my life in danger and now all of this-it was just too overwhelming. I closed my eyes. I started to get overwhelmed with memories that I had to open my eyes and try to clear my mind.

I heard the door slide back open and I slowly sat back up. It was the guy with the hat again and Ichigo was standing behind him. I watched warily as they both came into the room.

"My name is Kisuke Urahara. You would be Saru right?" He asked me.

I nodded. "Yeah."

"You know what you saw right?"

For some reason this irritated me. "Yes, Ichigo explained it to me."

"You know that you for sure saw it?"

"Yes!" I snapped, getting even more irritated.

"Urahara even I know it was there." Ichigo said quietly.

"I was just checking."

"I wasn't hallucinating if that's what you're asking." I snarled.

He backed up a little, his hands raised in a gesture of no harm. "I was just checking. No need to get mad."

I scowled but didn't say anything else. I had to watch my tongue especially since I was staying under his roof. Why didn't they just patch me up at home? I don't really know. But I was about ready to throw something at this guy. I was getting a little angry with him.

"Can't I just stay at my house?" I asked.

He shook his head. "Not until you've been healed up."

I growled and lied back down without another word. I didn't have anything to say to him. Well anything that was exactly nice.

After a moment, I did speak, though I stared at the ceiling as I spoke. "So what are we going to do now?"

"Well, first of all, we have to do something about your spiritual energy. If we don't, you're going to keep repeatedly getting attacked." Urahara said with a sigh.

Ichigo whispered something to him but I couldn't make out what he said. I let my eyes slip closed but then they are jerked right open again by a whistle.

"What the heck?" I slowly sat up and glared at Urahara.

He had an innocent expression on his face. "That wasn't me." Then he frowned and left the room.

I rubbed my eyes. "Why is he so annoying?"

Ichigo laughed. "That's just his personality."

I snorted. "That's a great excuse." And then I didn't say anything else after that. Ichigo was silent as well and I lied back down because that's all I could do without tearing the stitches back open. I heard voices outside of my room one was Urahara's and the other was one I didn't recognize. Ichigo was standing by the door and he slid it open part way.

"Oh, hey Orihime." He said, sounding surprised.

I sat up, totally confused. "Who now?"

Ichigo looked at me. "My friend Orihime." Then he turned back around. "I don't want to sound rude or anything, but what are you doing here?"

She laughed nervously. "I went looking for you and Chad told me you were here so here I am." She sounded totally nervous.

I lied back down, no longer caring who it was. It sounded like this girl had a crush on Ichigo. Not like I cared.

"So what did you need?"

"Did you want me to heal her?"

I sat up in total confusion. "Huh?"
