Shirosaki's POV
I blinked once, watching through the mirror in Ichigo's room. I ran my tongue over my lips, wetting them, watching the girl who Ichigo had met earlier; she sat up on Ichigo's bed.
God how I wished I could materialize myself. I'd make her forget the pain of her wounds, I felt my lips upturn even more than originally, my grin turning even wider as I watched the wound on her temple re-open under her movements.
I restrained from cackling, I knew that anyone in this room with any amount of reiatsu would be able to hear me. Plus, she'd already seen me materialized due to Ichigo's need to protect his own damned self from something he didn't know.
I shook my head, Ichigo was truly pathetic. He only called on me when he needed to be saved from death, yet he called on Zangetsu all the time? Ichigo must have forgotten that…we're all part of the same being.
I scoffed lightly, my eyes continuing to watch the girl as she moved to a stand; the bandage covering her temple became completely bloody, not surprising. That hit she took to her skull seemed pretty intense, it looked as though it would never stop bleeding.
I simply shrugged my shoulders, leaning back on my arms, watching her. I had my own personal peep-show going on here, and I wasn't about to ruin it or let anyone else ruin it.
I narrowed my dark eyes as Zangetsu's form appeared on that stupid rod he always showed up standing on; I scoffed again, once more dreading how I couldn't materialize myself into the human world.
I shoved Zangetsu's rod, effectively causing him to look down at me from under those dark sunglasses; he arched a brow at me.
“Go the hell away, old man” I stated, my voice deep, though holding a hint of a shriek. It wasn't like Zangetsu to obey my orders, but as I said that, he faded from my sight; I went back to watching the girl move about Ichigo's room.
My eyes widened slightly as I found her lying upon the floor just a few inches in front of the mirror, I hissed as a fright took over my being, unknowingly I sent a shockwave of reiatsu toward Ichigo; he needed to get up here, now.
I watched as the blood leaked from her drenched bandages, and her eyes began wavering to and from conciousness. `ICHIGO, HURRY UP, BAKA!' I shouted into Ichigo's mind just as I heard his foot smack into the last stair coming upward. Ichigo slammed the door open and ran over toward the quickly fading girl, lifting her up into his arms, a grimace came over his lips.
I heard him distinctly tell me to “Stay put,” and at the moment he was the King of his inner world, so…I had no choice but to obey at this time, or else he could kill me. I watched him run out of his room, and heard him down the stairs, over the wooden floor, and out of the house.
