The walk between the soul society and the world of the living was strange. It was cold and eerie in there, but Ichigo held you hand along the way which made you happy and felt safe. At the end of the long walk a tall Japanese door appeared as the black butterfly entered through it. It was a blinding white light as you flinched, but soon got used to it as your eyes widen greatly.
It was like an ancient Japanese town but with walls and people dressed in black like yourself. An old man stood at the center of the walk way as people where knelled before him.
"Ichigo Kurosaki, thank you for taking over my post as head captain. I can finally rest and make teas I haven't done before." He laughed to himself after noticing you, "I take it this is the girlfriend I keep hearing about?"
"Yes it is sir."
Ichigo motioned towards you as you jumped at the sudden attention towards you. You bowed your head, "(y/n) (y/l) sir and it is nice to meet you."
"Hoo theirs no need for the ranks dear, I'm not head captain anymore."
"O-Okay!"
Embarrassed you quickly when backing up and bumped into Ichigo a tiny bit as he smiled at your behavior. "It was nice seeing you one last time old man."
"I will be coming sometime around next month to see if you're fit for this job, you're not getting rid of me that easily."
"Yes sir."
"Without any further ado I must leave and enjoy retirement. Take care of the soul society for me."
"Will do sir."
The old head captain headed out of the door you came through as it closed behind him. You looked around the place more as you tighten your grip on Ichigo's hand more. What if these soul reapers would be mean to you? Or hated you? Maybe something even worse.
Ichigo gave you a gentle squeeze back, "(y/n) don't worry there's nothing to be worried about."
Ichigo could always read you like an open book which you sometimes love/hate about him, but this time it was good to know he knew you were feeling, "Okay I believe you."
"Ahh Ichigo! You've grown so much since the last time I've saw you."
A man with a flowery coat around his shoulders stood by the entrance Ichigo needed to go through, but Ichigo simply gave him a smile and nod. "Same too you, Shunsui. Are you sure you don't want the post as head captain?"
"I'm sure you'll make a wonderful captain. I like the squad I'm in and don't really think I'm cut out with all the problems and more formalities than I deal with." He finally noticed you as you were hiding behind Ichigo, "Who's this pretty young lady?"
"This is my girlfriend, (y/n) (y/l). She's shy right now but I know she'll open up more later on."
"That's a good thing because I want to talk and have a sake with this girl at some time."
Ichigo gave him his natural scowl. "She's too young to drink along with me."
"Hey once you become head captain time fly's by!"
"Whatever. Just tell me what I have to do now."
"You'll be doing the boring part of this head captain thing right now and setting yourself up before the meeting starts and saying you're the official head captain. I guess (y/n) can wonder around and explore more of the society."
Ichigo turned you around to face him as his face held a look of concern. "Will you be alright without me?"
"Of course I will! I'm not scared!" You puffed your out chest with pride.
