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

Saying goodbye to Tatsuki, Ichigo went to see Orihime home. The journey was short-lived, since they all lived nearby. The guy decided not to waste time and put his hand around the waist of the pensive Inoue walking next to him.

"Ichigo, what ... what are you doing!" - outraged Orihime, that's just that everything was limited, she did not even try to move away, because she had long dreamed that this would happen.

"Inoue, just don't tell me you don't understand what's going on." Ichigo grinned.

"You are a kind, shy and naive girl, but you are certainly not stupid."

"But it's not right!" Orihime muttered.

"You and Tatsuki, you and me, me and Tatsuki." - She continued to mumble something indistinct and unexpectedly covered her mouth with her hand, realizing that she blurted out too much. Startled, she looked at Ichigo.

"Oh, don't worry. I know about your antics with Tatsuki, she told me everything." Ichigo explained, which made Inoue shudder even more in his embrace.

"To be honest, I didn't expect you to have an interest in girls."

"Ichigo! You ... you got it all wrong! I'm not ... not interested in girls!" Orihime blurted out nervously.

"Tatsuki, she ... she ..."

Ichigo stopped, they were just outside Orihime's house. Without letting her finish, he turned the girl to him and kissed her pink lips so that she would stop making excuses. Although he was not in love with her, that did not mean that he was not pleased to be with her in a fairly close relationship.

Her large and soft breasts pressed against him. Looking into her eyes, clouded with excitement, the guy did not miss the chance to run his playful hands under the girl's skirt. Inoue did not resist at all, when Ichigo's hands stroked and squeezed her elastic ass, she did not even immediately realize that their kiss was over.

"Inoue ...." Ichigo said, pulling away from the girl a little. He had already clearly explained everything to her and now had to give her a chance to choose herself.

"You should know that if you want to continue, then in the future you may be in danger and your life will change forever. Think carefully, if everything suits you, then come tomorrow at 7:00 to my house for a morning run, you need to be well prepared Otherwise, just forget about everything that happened today. "

"Ichigo, I ... I will come." - drooping her head, Orihime muttered and quickly ran into the house. Closing the door behind her, she rushed to her room and, in her clothes, crawled under the covers, burying her face in the pillow.

"Ichigo, he ... he touched me there! God, what a shame! Tatsuki, she ... she's really evil! She did it with him! What ... what should I do now? Ichigo suggested that I go out with him." but he's dating Tatsuki! God, I misunderstood him! He invited me to meet both of them! I ... I already agreed to that! Oh, how embarrassing! " Orihime kept mumbling until she fell asleep.

Ichigo looked at the closed door and shook his head with a slight smile. Orihime was too strikingly different from Tatsuki in her personality. She was completely unsuitable for participation in events that were about to begin, this was one of the reasons why he did not want to get close to her, at least not yet.

But Tatsuki clearly had a different point of view and under her pressure, Ichigo had to compromise. After a little reflection, he came to the conclusion that this is not all that bad, it just takes a little more effort to teach Orihime in the remaining time.

Of course, he was not going to send her to the front line and hoped that the system would help him in this, because so far she had not let him down. The message from the system drew him out of his thoughts.

[Attention! An empty second rank was found nearby!]

Ichigo frowned. He was worried not only that it appeared empty, but that it was already the second empty one in one day. It had been almost two years since he, along with Tatsuki, began to kill all Hollows that showed up in the system's coverage area. Sometimes they appeared more often, sometimes less often, but today, for the first time, two empty ones appeared in one day.

Everything indicated that Aizen's plan was about to start. Ichigo switched to Shinigami form and was about to go in search of the Hollow, when he suddenly discovered that the Hollow itself was moving towards him.

A strange premonition made Ichigo not move and stay on guard outside Orihime's house. It didn't take long before the empty one appeared in front of him, and at that moment the guy understood why this empty one was moving towards him.

The Hollow looked like a huge naga - the lower part of his body was serpentine, and the upper part of his body was human, he had huge claws on his hands, there was an empty mask on his face, and a hole in his chest. Ichigo was mistaken, the empty was not moving towards him, he was moving towards Orihime's house, because it was her recently deceased brother.

Ichigo immediately recognized the monster, but he was extremely surprised by its appearance here. In the original story, they were supposed to meet only after he received the power of the Shinigami from Rukia, but this has not happened yet. Plus, Orihime was with Tatsuki that evening, which meant that the girls would have done well without him.

Their meeting today confirmed Ichigo's guesses and fears that the canon could go to hell if even one small change is made. It looks like it happened and he could no longer rely on his knowledge. Fortunately, he was already prepared for such a development of events and he still had time to pull Tatsuki up to the level of the captain.

Without pondering for a long time what to do with his ex-brother Orihime, Ichigo cut the Hollow in half, sending him to be reborn.

After that, he returned home. Yuzu and Karin were watching TV in the living room, and their parents were nowhere to be seen. Most likely, they have already made them another brother or sister upstairs. After chatting a little with the sisters, he went up to his room and went to bed.
