"Tadaima [I'm home]," Ichigo stated as he opened the door.

"Okaerinasai, Onii-san [Welcome home, older brother]," Yuzu yelled from the kitchen.

"Are Karin or Goat-Chin home?" Ichigo asked.

"No. Tou-san left somewhere and Karin said she was going to a friend's house." Yuzu replied.

"Ok. Well, if you need me, Yuzu, I'll be in my room doing homework." Ichigo told his sister as he climbed up the stairs and went to his room. He sat down on his desk and opened out his notebook before writing down his updated schedule.

'Don't know how I got very lucky with this schedule.' Ichigo thought.

"Yes, you did, Ichigo." Yhwach agreed.

"I agree with Yhwach. The best thing about this is that these sports will help with your training. Archery will allow you to practice your aiming and teach you how to use a bow. Kendo will also serve as practice for Zanjutsu." Kyōka added.

'Well. Let's get this party started.' Ichigo thought.

Two Months Later

The next two months went like a blur for Ichigo, but, overall, everything was going well. Many of Ichigo's former friends were surprised by his new lifestyle and, when they tried to confront him, he simply told them that it was "none of your business."

All around, many of the citizens at Karakura Town also started to see Ichigo as, not a delinquent, but as something else. With Ichigo participating in these sports clubs, Karakura High School began to get more recognition and other sports captains of sports such as Tennis, Swimming, Basketball, and Baseball asked Ichigo for his assistance.

He agreed but, unlike the first contract with Karate, Kendo, Soccer, Boxing, Archery and Track & Field clubs, their contract was 4,000 yen for his assistance. Their sports would also be his second priority since they didn't answer when Ichigo first called them.

Many students at Karakura High School have come to like the new Ichigo since he helped the school out overall. One by one, students that have been bullied before began to share their stories. They all mention one key detail, Ichigo intervened and defended them from the bullies.

By the end of that week, Ichigo's fame grew into higher heights and, by the end of the school year, he was considered the most popular person in the entire town thanks to his amazing sports skills and heroic actions against bullies! The police also took a look at crime rates since Ichigo's middle school years to now and noticed that crime is at an all-time low! Many people credit it to Ichigo, much to his surprise.

Lastly are his grades. Even with all this going on and how busy he was all the time, Ichigo somehow managed to go neck-a-neck with Uryū for first place in the entire grade.

Now, on March 17th, Ichigo climbed out of his window and sat outside on the roof to stare at the moon.

'These have been some long six months.' Ichigo thought as he stared at the moon.

"It has." Yhwach appeared, drinking some whiskey while also staring at the moon.

'And to think we have come this far since the moment Rukia stabbed me with her sword.' Ichigo thought.

"Yes," Yhwach replied.

"But amidst all this…" Kyōka appeared and cuddle herself on Ichigo's left side.

"You have done well." Hōgyoku appeared on his right side and cuddle herself to the teen too. Ichigo immediately put his respective arms around them and brought them closer.

'I have. Zangetsu you can come out if you want.' With that Zangetsu also came out and laid down a few feet away from his king.

"I agree. I may be the embodiment of your instincts, but I do agree that this is nice." Zangetsu said. Everyone continued to stare at the moon, Ichigo thinking back to how much his life has changed these past six months.

'It all started on July 10th, 2004 (5) when Rukia came to my room and my family and I were attacked by a Hollow. That was the night that I first awoke my powers.

Then, on August 1st, I lost my temporary powers and began the training to awaken my true powers. On August 10th we began the rescue mission to save Rukia. October 1st to 15th was dealing with those Vampire rip-offs called Bounts. After that was the Kasumioji and dealing with politics for another few weeks. Then Senna came and we dealt with her for a week. Then Toshiro crashing here due to his old friend, Sōjirō Kusaka, coming back for revenge.

On November 20th, Muramasa and his Zanpakutō rebellion happened. On the 30th, Yammy and Ulquiorra came and later Grimmjow and I fought. Then I had to deal with the Vizards. Stupid Aizen using physiological warfare with Orihime. Later dealing with him and the remaining Espada attacking Karakura Town. And, finally, killing Aizen on January 21st, 2005.' Ichigo recalled everything that he was involved in in the past six months.

Ichigo eventually fell asleep in the arms of Kyōka and Hōgyoku. Both ladies gently lifted their Master back to his room and placed him on his bed. They both stole a quick peck to his cheeks before going back to his mindscape.

"Yes, more blackmail," Zangetsu stated with a smirk. Yhwach then came behind him and slammed his empty glass on Zangetsu's head.

"Shut up," Yhwach said.

"Fine, you killjoy," Zangetsu replied before going back to Ichigo's mindscape.

"Rest well, Ichigo." Yhwach wished as he pulled the blanket over Ichigo's body before also going back to the mindscape.
