A/N Thanks everyone for the reviews, they really mean a lot and sorry for any mistakes I make when typing this up. Also I got asked for the pairings of this story so I was thinking Tsukune keeps Kurume, Mizore and outer Moka while Ichigo gets inner Moka, possibly Kokoa but I will be splitting inner/outer Moka into different bodies although I'm open to suggestions on this subject like maybe adding some bleach girls.
In relations to who is stronger between Ichigo and Moka I've made Ichigo the strongest of the pair and I also will not make him have a seal/rosary.
I appreciate constructive criticism that can be used to better the story. Please favourite, follow and review!

Hidden Nature
(Underground Training area)
Ichigo stood on top of a boulder overlooking most of the training grounds, his goal for being up there? He was trying to find Isshin, Kisuke and Yoruichi. The point of the exercise was for him to use his sense of smell or hearing to locate them without relying on his sight, what they didn't know was that he could smell and hear them without trying. Getting rather bored with this exercise Ichigo opted to test his strength and speed... Yet again, appearing on top of a different boulder after using his speed, Ichigo struck downwards with his fist causing a small tremor and blowing the boulder into tiny pieces. Standing there stunned was Kisuke, Ichigo grinned a little darkly having found who he was hoping for. And so they started trading blows, Ichigo got into his fighting stance before sending a few quick jabs then some kicks at Kisuke which were mostly blocked or dodged, sometimes returning his own but some of Ichigo's managed to get through his defence. Now kisuke knew Ichigo wasn't weak, especially after his vampire side emerged but 'Kami… he fractured a rib, it's like he's got an issue or he doesn't know his own strength…. That could be a problem if it's true.'
"Ichigo my boy, let's take a break." Isshin called out from where he was watching the spectacle, much to Kisukes relief. So Ichigo and Kisuke made their way to where Isshin and Yoruichi were waiting, upon arrival Ichigo asked "Hey, how long have we been here training? I've lost track of the time."
Yoruichi replied "You've been fighting for nine days Ichigo, while we've been rotating who's been fighting against you. That's also why we have been getting you to practice with your senses, so you can have a rest but you put a stop to that soon enough!" Yoruichi ended with a slight huff for two reasons: one was she wanted to rest for longer than a few hours, two was that she wanted Ichigo to get some rest.
'Nine days… wow' realizing he hadn't said anything back he replied "Ah sorry… it's just I don't feel tired, maybe a little thirsty but that's about It." Ichigo said sheepishly before continuing normally "Anyway thanks for the training but I think I got the vampire stuff down and can handle anything the school can throw at me." After that he started walking to the ladder but Kisuke called out to him.
"Kurosaki-san before you go I got something to tell you." Ichigo stopped and turned waiting for him to continue. "Most monsters you'll meet aren't as strong as ex-shinigami captains so you will have to hold back how much strength you use." Ichigo raised an eyebrow, as if asking if that's all so Kisuke continued "Vampires also can't touch water because it drains them of all their strength so just avoid it unless you can add some herbs to it."
Ichigo nodded his head before adding "Alright, thanks geta-boshi. I guess I'll spend today telling my friends what's going on, get packed and tomorrow… I'll be going to yokai academy... See you later then" with that Ichigo went back to his walk to the ladder.
Once Isshin was sure Ichigo was out of earshot he let out a sad sigh which Kisuke picked up on. "You're going to miss him aren't you?" Isshin responded with "Of course I'll miss him, he's my son." Kisuke put a comforting hand on Isshins shoulder.
Yoruichi spoke up next "I think we're all going to miss the prude." That earned her a few chuckles before she continued "Although… I have to wonder if he will still be a prude after becoming a vampire and going to yokai academy." She gained a thoughtful expressing towards the end of her musings. Deciding to tease Kisuke and Isshin she added "You know how all the girls wear super short skirts and Ichigo will see certain aspects of them… too bad you have to be a monster to go there." She mentally chuckled at the perverted duo when they had depression clouds over their heads while they drew lines in the corner.

(With Ichigo)
Ichigo made his way through Karakura, scowl in place, thinking about how he was going to tell his friends and his sisters that he was going to a different school, a school for monsters no less. 'I suppose I can tell Karin and Yuzu my fights have finally caught up with me but what do I tell the others?' When Ichigo came out of his thoughts he was opening the front door to his home and called out "Karin, Yuzu. I'm home." Walking past the kitchen he saw Yuzu cooking, lost in her own world. Continuing through the house, he spotted Karin watching a TV show about soccer. Before he could go to his room Karin turned around and saw him.
"Yuzu! Ichi-nii is home!" Karin said with a hint of excitement. After a couple of seconds that she said that Yuzu came running into the living room with tears in her eyes. Upon seeing her brother she crash tackled him into a hug muttering "Onii-chan! You were gone for 11 days! Where were you? What were you doing?" Ichigo simply hugged his sister back waiting for her to calm down.
Karin walked over to her brothers' figure on the floor and raised an eyebrow, waiting for an answer to her sisters questions. When he looked up into her eyes she noticed that his pupils were slitted, 'this just raises even more questions'. When Yuzu stopped crying she sat on her bother and noticed something else. "Onii-chan, I knew you had big muscles but when did they get this big?" after she said this she looked into his eyes as well and noticed what Karin noticed before. "When did you get kitty eyes too?!" she asked very excitedly.
Ichigo let out an exasperated, and at the same time, amused sigh before responding "Yuzu, I was at Urahara-sans training so there's no need to worry but I would like to shower before I go out again… also I got some things I'll tell you tonight." The twins shared an uneasy look with each other before Yuzu begrudgingly got off her brother. When Yuzu got off him, he gave Karin a quick hug before going up to the bathroom because quite frankly, while the hot springs could be used to wash himself, Ichigo preferred to have soap and other toiletries.
Once inside the bathroom Ichigo finally got a chance to look himself over in the mirror since the complete transformation into a vampire and he could see what everybody else was talking about. He stood at 6'1ft tall, broad muscular chest and arms, black hair that reaches between his mid/upper back, piercing red eyes with slitted pupils. Leaning a little closer to the mirror, Ichigo pulled his upper lip way from his teeth to see that he did indeed have vampire fangs. Sighing Ichigo stepped away from the mirror before turning the taps on to fill the tub up with water, he then reached into his pocket and pulled out a box of herbs before stripping into his birthday suit. Turning off the taps before adding the herbs and getting in the tub, he starts cleaning himself properly for the first time in nine days and he let the water wash away the stress he built up training to get his strength to resemble a captains again. After he finished washing himself Ichigo relaxed in the tub and let his mind clear but once it cleared he realised something… he was a vampire… a thirsty vampire.
[/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\]
Yuzu and Karin watched as their brother made his way up the stairs before turning to each other but just as Karin was about to ask Yuzu what she thought was going on Isshin bursts through the front door and yelled "Daddy's home my dear daughters! So there's no need to worry about me or that delinquent son of mine!" Karin just face palmed while Yuzu ran to the front door.
"Daddy! What happened to Onii-chan?" Yuzu asked with a stern expression, luckily for Isshin and unluckily for Ichigo, Isshin had thought of a reason while he was making his way back to the clinic.
"Yuzu my daughter, your brother and I were out having 'the talk' and it just took him a while to figure out how to make babies because he kept fainting all the time." Isshin said in a happily proud voice. Yuzu blushed and started stuttering how Ichigo wasn't like that but then she remembered what her brother had said to her when he came home 'I was at Urahara-sans training so there's no need to worry but I would like to shower before I go out again… also I got some things I'll tell you tonight.' Yuzu turned pale and walked back into the living room muttering "Onii-chan is training to make babies and wants to tell us about it." Karin had heard her as she sat on the seat and was even more confused than before.
At this moment Ichigo chose to descend the stairs after getting dressed into a white shirt that had a black line going diagonally down the left side with a red number 15 in its middle, long dark blue pants and a black hoddie jacket. When he reached the living room Yuzu looked ready to faint, Karin looked confused as hell and goat-face had a huge shit-eating grin plastered on his face, choosing not to even ask what was wrong, Ichigo went straight to the front door and headed out into Karakura.
Pulling out his phone, Ichigo sent a text to Ishida, Chad and Orihime asking each of them to meet him at the Karakura mall in about 20 minutes because he has something important to tell them. Putting the phone away, Ichigo continues his walk passing by memorable spots along the way, the park where he first decided to became a soul reaper and start work with Rukia, the spot under the bridge where he and Chad promised to always have each other's back, Ichigo continues reminiscing about all the good times he had in Karakura until he is standing in front of the mall. Ichigo only had to wait for 5 minutes before the gang all showed up, first was Chad who was greeted by a 'yo' which he returned, Orihime was next who said 'Hello Kurosaki-kun' and was returned with 'Hey Orihime' and the last to arrive was Ishida who said a swift, business like 'Kurosaki'.
With everybody gathered and present, they all went inside and Ichigo decided to give them the news at a café. They went to a relatively small café that didn't have many people there compared to other stores and sat at four seat table with Ichigo on the oppose side of chad, Ishida to his left and Orihime to his right. After everyone order something to eat Ichigo waited for someone to speak up because he really didn't know how to tell them the news.
"Alright Kurosaki, What was so Important that you had to drag us here on our Sunday off?" Uryu asked sounding annoyed but wasn't really. All he was doing before was studying, he knew it was necessary but that didn't mean he had to like it.
Ichigo took a calming breath before saying "I have transferred schools and am going to be leaving tomorrow morning." Looking at each of them to gauge their reactions, he can see Chads one visible eye is wide open in shock, Ishida is just gaping at him and the one he was fearing see the most looks about ready to cry. Sighing he thought he should give them a couple of minutes to get over their shock and so, he waited for the inevitable barrage of question that he just knew was bound to come his way and come it did.
"W-why Kurosaki-kun? Why are you leaving?" Orihime asked between slight sobs.
Uryu decided to voice his question in a different style "What the hell Kurosaki! What do you think you are doing!?"
Chad gave a questioning look towards Ichigo.
'Now all I have to do is choose, tell a lie or the truth.' Looking around Ichigo noticed they were the only group in the café, sighing in defeat he turned his head to the side a little and pulled his upper lip out of the way, exposing his fangs which he elongated to around an inch long for effect before retracting them to the normal length. Looking at the group now everybody was in shock at having witnessed Ichigo having a pair of retractable fangs for teeth!
The first to manage a question in their shock induced states was Chad "What happened to you Ichigo?"
Deciding not to beat around the bush Ichigo came straight out with it. "My reiatsu was acting as a seal to vampire blood I had in me but after I used Mugetsu, it… I lost all my reiatsu which means I lost my seal. The school I'm going to is called Yokai Academy and it was made specifically to teach monsters, which a vampire is classed as." The facial expressions on the three went from shock to confusion than realisation but Ishida gained a questioning look to him because he was thinking of all the implications of Ichigo being a vampire. Not one to let his questions go unanswered, he voiced them.
"You said this was a school for monsters, as in there is more than one. So I guess there are species in which case I presume that most, if not all of the mythical creatures we have heard about actually exist." He finished in his 'I have already figured this out voice' looking across to Ichigo he saw him nod his head in yes so he continued his questions. "So if you're a vampire that means you would have to suck blood?" He gained a smirk when Ichigo looked uneasy but nodded anyway. Deciding to torment Ichigo a little bit he asked "So if that's true then who have you sucked blood from?" Orihime looked absolute scandalized at that and Ichigo… well Ichigo looked like he was really thirsty but also had a light blush.
"I have sucked blood from Yoruichi, other than that I've only had a drink when geta-boshi gave me a can of tomato juice and that was almost 3 days ago." Ichigo finished sounding like he was longing for another drink. He then shifted his gaze to Orihime because he wasn't going to drink from a guy and she did smell rather good. 'No! I can't start thinking of people like some juice pack.' But the others had seen how Ichigo looked at Orihime… how a predator looks at its prey before it attacks.
Orihime spoke up in a timid voice "Umm Kurosaki-kun? Are you, umm?… do you… want to suck my blood?" Truthfully Orihime was a little excited at the possibility of a vampire sucking her blood but to have Ichigo as a vampire suck her blood was a like a fantasy come true to her… it was an actual fantasy for her. Ichigo didn't know exactly what to say to that, on one hand he was a vampire that hasn't feed on blood for a while and been deprived of a substitute for days but on the other hand it's practically stealing her blood. Uryu must have spotted the conflicted look on his face because he spoke up again.
"Kurosaki she is offering to let you do it, you're not going to kill her because Chad and I could stop you but I do have to ask, would she become a vampire if you did suck her blood?" Now that made Orihime extremely excited, could she became a vampire too?!
Ichigo now recalled some of the things Urahara told him about being a vampire and later what he did with Yoruichi.
(Flashback)
It was now the 3rd day of training Ichigo in control of his vampire attributes, Kisuke had went up to the shop saying a shop owner can't leave his store for long and Isshin went home to check on Yuzu and Karin.
Ichigo lay panting on the ground having just finished his race with Yoruichi; he stayed in that position until he realised how thirsty he was after running so fast and for so long. Getting up, he made his way to the springs in a trance like state and upon arrival he saw Yoruichi in her human form with her back to him down soaking in the spring. Walking up until he was behind her, he crouched down and leaned forward, opened his mouth while elongating his fangs getting ready to suck her blood, and if you payed enough attention you could see Yoruichi tilt her head sideways a little getting ready for it with a smile on her face. That was until kisuke flash stepped back with a can of tomato juice in his hand while the other held onto his cane.
"Kurosaki-san I must ask you not to drink Yoruichis' blood for now as I have a supplement that I wish to see if it can be used in the stead of blood." Kisuke almost didn't flinch at the glare Yoruichi sent his way.
Blinking a few times before realizing what he was doing Ichigo said "I am so sorry Yoruichi; I don't know what came over me." He then turned around to see what Kisuke had for him and using his new Vampire reflexes he caught the can just barely 5cm away from his face. Pulling the can away from his face, Ichigo saw that it was Tomato juice. "So I can drink tomato juice instead of blood?"
"Why yes kurosaki-san so drink up, I know you haven't been drinking anything for a while now." Pulling out his fan to hide his face, Kisuke had an eye on Ichigo to see how he likes the juice. Opting to just bite into the can instead of opening it, Ichigo began to suck it dry and finished it in no time. Seeing Ichigo had finished drinking it Kisuke asked "So how was it?"
"Well it could have been better but I'm not complaining." Nodding his head in acceptance of the answer Kisuke saw that Ichigo had a curious expression. "Say geta-boshi… if I had of sucked blood from Yoruichi would she of became a vampire as well?" Ichigo asked genuinely curious about how people can become a vampire.
"No Kurosaki-san, there is only one way you can become a vampire and that is to be infected with their blood." While Kisuke was saying that, he saw that Yoruichi had got up and turned around so she could sneak up on Ichigo from behind and much to his disappointment block him from seeing anything to revealing.
Wrapping her arms around Ichigo's neck and pressing her bust into his back, Yoruichi whispered into his ear with amusement "Don't move or turn around, I'm naked and don't want Kisuke to see me… although you can probably feel that." When Ichigo nodded his head dumbly she laughed a little before continuing "Now I want you to use that Impressive vampire speed you have to get us where Kisuke can't see ok?" Ichigo just nodded again not trusting his voice before disappearing in a burst of speed and reappearing some distance away behind a large boulder. Yoruichi moved her arms from around Ichigos' neck to his shoulders before turning him around to face her and when she did red eyes stared into her golden ones and gold into red. Ichigo wrapped his arms around Yoruichis waist and slowly their faces inched closer to one another until their lips were just inches away from each other…
Ichigo found his vampire senses were both a gift and a curse. From the moment he appeared behind this boulder all he could smell was Yoruichi and she smelt deliciously amazing so when she turned him around he was starting to lose control, wrapping his hands around her, slowly he leaned closer and closer until he could no longer take it and that was when he bit to drink. Pulling back when he was done after licking the wound, Ichigo blinked his daze away until he realized this time he had gone through with sucking her blood, looking to Yoruichi what he saw was not what he was expecting; she had a smile, she was still naked, she didn't look ready to faint and she didn't look angry he had just done that.
"I'm sorry for doing that Yoruichi…. but it's just that… you smelt so good." Ichigo said while bushing after turning around so that he could give her some privacy.
"Haha thanks Ichigo, It's nice to know you like how I smell… but you seriously need to stop apologizing. It actually felt kinda good." In truth Yoruichi loved how it felt expect for the prick when he bit into her neck but she wasn't going to boost Ichigos ego. "Now you should get back to training unless you want to watch a girl get dressed."
(End Flashback)
Seeing Ichigo had a faraway look on his face Chad decided to break him out of it. "Hey Ichigo… Ichigo!" When trying to talk to him didn't work he gave him a gentle shake and it seemed to work as Ichigo was focusing on his surroundings once again. "Ichigo if Orihime let you suck her blood would she become a vampire like you?"
Ichigo tried to push the memory of his first 'Blood sucking' out of his head before responding but failed so he had a light blush while saying. "No she wouldn't become a vampire and the only thing Yoruichi said about getting her blood sucked was that it actually it felt kinda good." Bringing himself back to the current situation he added defensively "But besides that we're in a mall, a public mall, and I can hold out for a while anyway."
This was one of those times Ishida really felt like hitting Ichigo many times in the head. "Kurosaki you are a vampire and you need to drink blood, as much as you hate to admit this you know I'm right, plus it's not healthy to go for days without drinking."
Ichigo sighed in defeat before saying. "Alright but we are in a public mall so why don't we enjoy what's left of the day a little before that, ok?" When everyone looked serious he added in a joking tone to lighten the mood "It's my last day before I get shipped of after all." It seemed to work because everyone brightened up a little.
When everybody finished eating what they had ordered the gang all left to enjoy a day at the mall and that they did. First they did what Chad wanted to do, which was look at some new guitars his favourite store had brought in recently and was having a special on, he even played them a couple of song his band had been working on. After that, the next thing on the to do list was buy some materials Ishida needed for the sewing club, needless to say the only ones that went in the store was Uryu and Orihime while Ichigo asked Chad if he would like to stay outside because he knew Chad wouldn't like to be disrespectful of other peoples hobbies and would of went in regardless of how he felt about it. When it was Orihimes turn to pick, she wanted to do something they all would enjoy so she picked a movie at the cinema… a sci-fi horror movie but a movie none-the-less and they did all enjoy it, when the movie finished and everyone stepped out of the cinema it was getting pretty late.
(Late Afternoon)
"Alright guys I had a great time but I think I should be heading home now." Ichigo was about to go home but before he could he was stopped by Orihime
"Wait Kurosaki-kun! You said the last time you had anything to drink was 3 days ago right?" Ichigo nodded his head and sent Orihime a questioning look so she continued with confidence until about hallway through what she was saying. "Well if you're going to be gone tomorrow I would like… I would like for you to… to suck my blood."
Ichigo responded a little nervously "W-well I guess… only if I don't take too much and you're ok with it." With that he stopped trying to block out Orihimes smell like he had been doing all day and allowed it to fill his senses. Locking his eyes with Orihime he moved closer to her until he was less than a foot away before snaking his arms around her waist like he did with Yoruichi and like he did with her he slowly inched his head closer to her face.
Orihime was blushing mad by now and so were the two forgotten spectators to a lesser degree, all parties expect Ichigo was wondering if this was the start to blood sucking or a make out session. But soon enough Ichigos fangs met Orihime's neck and he started to feed, licking the wound and then pulling back when he was done, Ichigo could see Orihime blushing madly while he himself had only a small blush because for some reason ever since the transformation he just seemed to handle himself better.
"Ahh t-thanks Orihime, I really appreciate it." Speaking to the group as a whole he added "Take care of Karakura of me because I won't be gone forever!"
With renewed energy thanks to Orihime he ran back home hoping to make it there in time Isshins curfew took affect and he would have to waste time fighting with the 'old goat'. Lucky, by kami's grace, he made with a few minutes to spare, deciding it's time to start the afternoon ritual he said "Yuzu! Karin! I'm home!" Walking further into his home he could smell diner cooking. 'Yeah I'll wait until after diner to tell them' Silently making his way through the house, Ichigo made it to his room without letting anyone know he was home yet. In his room he pulled out a duffle bag and started packing the essentials, when he as just about done packing Ichigo heard Isshin saying 'That son of mine is late home again!' laughing silently to himself Ichigo did a once over to check if everything was present when he noticed in the corner of his room was a package with the schools uniform in it, guessing Kisuke sent it over he decided not to question it further instead opting to catch a few minutes of sleep.
[/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\]
Awaking to Yuzu declaration of 'Dinner is ready' Ichigo made his way down stairs to the dinner table where it was being served. When Karin raised an eyebrow at him as if asking where he'd been he lazily gestured to his room. Dinner was the usual Kurosaki way up until it finished "Hey Yuzu… Karin… I got something to tell you two ok?" He saw Yuzu blush for whatever reason and Karin just said a simply yeah in her non-caring voice but Ichigo could tell she was curious as to what he wanted to tell them, Isshin decided to make himself scarce until Ichigo finished telling them the news, truth or lie.
"Umm, well you know how I always get into fights at school?" Both girls nodded so he continued. "Well the principal said even though my grades are exceptional he can no longer have me in school and so I've been transferred." Looking at the two he waited for the news to register for them. It took a while for before either said anything but the first to speak was Karin.
"Well I can't say I didn't see this coming." Karin knew something was bound to happen to her brother because trouble always finds him no matter what. "So when are you leaving."
"I'll be leaving tomorrow morning when a bus picks me up." Ichigo was kinda shocked they were taking this so well until he looked to Yuzu. "Hey Yuzu, Are you alright?"
When Yuzu tried to talk she couldn't hold back her tears any longer. "I don't want…*sob* you to… *sob* go Onii-chan!"
Ichigo got up from the table and opened his arms giving her a small smile. Yuzu couldn't take it anymore so she got up and tackled her brother into a hug while crying into his clothes. "Don't worry Yuzu I'll be back soon and it will be like I was never gone." They stayed like that until Yuzu fell asleep in Ichigo's arms; sighing Ichigo carried Yuzu up to her room and kissed her forehead before putting her in bed. When Ichigo came back down he said to Karin in a joking tone "You don't need me to take you upstairs to do you?"
Karin just shook head in amusement before saying "Make sure you call us, ok Ichi-nii?"
"Alright I will, just take care for Yuzu for me alright." Karin nodded her head so Ichigo walked up and gave her a hug before adding. "Don't forget to take care of yourself to ok? But anyway I'm going to go to bed so I can wake up on time. Goodnight Karin." Karin sighed before adding her own goodnight but felt sad knowing her brother would be leaving tomorrow.
When Ichigo was in his room, he got out his uniform and set it out for tomorrow before getting in bed, thinking before sleep could claim him 'Next stop: Yokai academy.'
