"Ichigo! Ichigo!" Rukia wispered gently shaking him awake, "Wat?!" "It hurts Ichigo, it hurts alot," "Wat hurts?" "My chest, it feels like it's burning," Ichigo sat straight up, "I don't no wat to do, Ichigo," "How bad does it hurt? How long has it hurt? You better not be fooling me!" "One at a time! Alot, a wile, and why the heck would I kid around about something blike this you idiot?! Even if I wanted to, I'd be afraid of wat you'd to me! Do you think I want to be your test subject?!" "Wat do you mean?!" "I mean all you humans ever do is take sharp objects and slice people open! And that sounds pretty painfull to ME!" "First of all you watch too many movies! Second of all, you're faking it, now go to sleep before I really make it hurt!" he believed her, but he didn't want to, he wanted her to say that he was right, he didn't want her to be sick, or worse, atleast shew wasn't having a heart attack or something, "I am not! I trust you Ichigo! Why don't you trust me?!" Ichigo stared at her, "Alright, do you have a headache?" "No," "Do-" "I no wat it is!" Ichigo leaned back, 'Oh, I can't wait to see this!' he thought, she rolled up her pant leg and turned on the light, he looked at her ankle, his eyes were wide, "Why didn't you tell me about this sooner?! You're luvky you aren't dead!" "It didn't look dangerouse," "Rukia! You no alot about Soul Society, I'll give you that, but you no hardly anything about this world and you need to come to me with stuff like this!" he stared at the snake bite in her ankle, "Lay down, I'm gonna go call someone," "NO!" "Wat?!" "Listen, I am in an artifical body, you don't think that they'll find that out?! Wat ever you want them to do, do it yourself! You're the only one I can trust!" "You should have come to me wen your chest started hurting, actually, you should have come to me wen the snake bit you Rukia!" "I no, wen my chest started hurting, I looked up wat snake it was in my Snake Dictionary," "Wen did you get a-" "How do you think I spend your money? Anyway, it's this one," she pointed to a picture in the book, "It's a Brown Tree Snake, but it's only dangerouse to children so-" "Have you looked at yourself lately?! You're about three inches away from looking like a child! Rukia this seriouse!" "Hello! I no that! Look, I'm not a child, so it wont kill me," "No, it'll just kill you slowely," Rukia looked down, "Rukia, are you sure it was this one?" "Yeah, why?" "This snake is only found in Australia, New Gunia, and Indonisea," "So?! It swam over here!" Ichigo tried not to laugh, "I no it was that one! I'm positive!" "Then, I guess I need to go get the antidoute, don't I?" he left, 'Not only is that snake not found in these parts of the world, but also, that bite isn't natural, wen a snake bites something it's quick and hardly noticeable, but, that snae bit her ankle, the position of the bites were strange, it would have had to open it's mouth all the way, and bite her ankle slowly, snakes don't usually do that, not to mention, that only bite humans if they feel threatened, and even then it's only a warning, but, that bite, it's as if the snake was hanging on, making absolutly sure that the venom was injected, plus, sme snakes have a warning venow that isn't dangerous, it just hurts, and most snakes don't inject venow wen they bite humans, it really bugs me, the position, is as if someone was milking the snake, pressing down the head, and making sure that the venom seepes through, it dosen't live on this contenit either, so that means, that someone poisened her, and also, there was another, smaller mark, just above the bite marks, why?' Ichigo grabbed the antidoute, (after sorting through anti-venoms for about five minutes) and ran upstairs, 'But who would want Rukia dead?' he opened the door, she was sweating, and sleeping, it appeared, "Ichigo," she wispered, "Help me,"

One hour after injecting her with the antivenom went by, and Ichigo tried to think of the culpret,
