Dragon Ball: Altered Time 36 Chads... Missing...

"Hello... My name is Yuichi Shibata, how are you" instantly Ichigo felt something real wrong about this while scratching his chin, "Rukia then said to him, "It seems we have to use the soul burial technique today, I think it's just a lost soul that is trapped in this world."

———-_________———-

When Chad set down his cage, Yūichi (Parakeet) introduced himself to the group, prompting Ichigo to look at him in shock.

And Keigo started testing how much Yūichi can say, Ichigo then asked Chad where he got Yūichi from, only for Chad to give a short summary instead of the full story, prompting Keigo to criticize him for being lazy and demanding the full story, "I got him from a friend after a steel beam slammed onto my back".

Privately, Rukia confirmed to Ichigo that there is something inside the parakeet, but it is harmless and likely nothing more than a lonely Soul which they will have to perform Konsō on tonight.

While Ichigo complains about having another night without sleep, Rukia notes that he was worried for the safety of others as soon as he sensed the Soul's presence and that he may be understanding what it means to be a Shinigami.

Later, this night Yuzu rushed past Ichigo with two boxes of medical supplies while telling him to move out of the way, prompting Ichigo to ask her "where's the fire" before narrowly avoiding Karin wheeling an injured man past him on a gurney.

As Yuzu reveals there was a big car accident at the nearby intersection, Isshin yells at someone at the Karakura Hospital over the phone and demands that he "tell your boss that Isshin is in need of free beds there for the patients he cannot fit at his own clinic" before hanging up in anger.

While Ichigo stays out of the way at his father's behest, Isshin called him over to help with a larger patient, only for Ichigo to stop upon seeing that it is Chad while Karin freezes upon seeing Chad.

Taking Chads shirt off of him, Yuzu cringes in horror upon seeing the large wound on his back, which Isshin identifies as a burn that is still bleeding. Chad claims he is fine and tries to leave, but collapses at the doorway, prompting Isshin to tell Karin and Yuzu to get a bed ready for him.

That night, while Chad lied in bed with Yūichi on the table next to him, Rukia confirmed to Ichigo that the wound on his back was definitely inflicted by a Hollow as this was going on Chad escaped with Yūichi through the window.

Soon the darkness wore off and the light regained its momentum it was day once again.

While waking up Ichigo headed off to Chads room to check on him when he found that he was missing, "Dammit where did Chad go and he's also taken that Plus with him."

"If I'm correct then it seems that the Parakeet is what is luring the Hollow to attack Chad, this is most likely what is happening it explains why the previous owners of Yuichi had died tragic deaths by Truck-Kun!"

With this Ichigo and Rukia started looking for Chad in hopes of being able to locate the Hollow targeting Yuichi's owners, maybe or most likely for their high and above average Reishi and Reiyoku.

With this Ichigo went back to school in hopes to finding Chad, seeing Mizuiro andKeigo he asked, "Have any of you heard or seen Chad by any chance today."

With this Mizuiro Shook his head saying, "He- No he's not in today" Keigo then said, "I haven't seen him since yesterday in school"

With Ichigo proclaiming, "... Umm that's weird... Chad usually arrives 15 minutes before class starts so why's he not in today!"

"WAP!!"

"Alright Class... Take your seats —"

Before she could carry on her sentence Ichigo zoomed past her leaving many afterimages in the process, "Hmm So Chad and Ichigo don't seem to be in strange, I though I'd have heard the name 'Ichigo' Just now or I could be just hearing things."

Soon Ichigo had flew out of school landing down near a nearby neighbourhood, before hearing his name being called out, "Ichigo!"

Rukia was surprised once again as Ichigo was flying..

Flying in his mortal body how the f*ck does that work and he's not even using any of his Reishi, meaning it's some other force of energy, "Could it be that he wasn't lying about the thing he called Qi, I researched it and found its lifeforce of every being and cultivators harness this to become immortals they are like the perfected bounts in this case!"

"Rukia... you find anything about the Hollow or about Chad, got any info from the Soul Society" Rukia shook her head dejectedly while replying, "Nope nothing received from them and I haven't sensed anything either!"

"Also Ichigo, usually at times like these the Hollows hide in between the Realm Of void that is in between both earth and the Soul Society, and once they do that it's impossible to detect them, we get alerts from Soul Society when they step into the human realm Earth other than waiting there's nothing we can do!!"
