2nd scene: And the Day Finally Comes
Where’s this…? 1)
Ah, the view… Soul Society… So I ended up here, it seems. 2)
…
Nothing changes… So this is the end… 3)
…
“When I told you to take your time, I didn’t think I’d wait this long.”
???
“ISHIDA??”
“I’d presumed that with your careless fighting and lack of caution in choosing enemies, You’d arrive here sooner. Apparently I was wrong.”
“…”
“Don’t waste any more time, then. Come on. This is the last day to register to shinigami school.”
Shinigami school?
(chuckle)
“Stop humoring me… Shinigami school? What can an old man like me do in shinigami school?”
“Old man you said…? See for yourself.” 4)
What…? How… 5)
“This, ojiisan, is the soul of Kurosaki Ichigo. Now tell me, are you the same person?”
(a smile) Yes…
“Good. We’re going, then.”
The end
Note:
1) Old Ichigo awakened in a place he didn’t recognize.
2) Apparently he’s on a mountain somewhere, and the view is Seireitai from a distance.
3) He had walked some, find a small pond, and now’s looking at his reflection on the water’s surface
4) Ishida came forward, grabbed Ichigo’s neck, and made him look into the water once again…
5) and see a young man with spiky blond hair and confused face looking back.
