Previous Chapter

"Ugh, where am I, it's warm, am I dead, no, I can't be", Fujiwara thought in his sleep, he woke up to find himself in a room of what seemed to be a rather traditional looking house, he attempted to stand up but a sharp pain streaked across his right.

"Agh!", he shouted in pain, looking at his wound, "Oh yeah, that", he added, coming to the realization that the fight he has was real, he then recalled what happened the night before.

"Fujimoto!", he cried out, ignoring the pain of his injuries and standing up.

"Lie down", a voice called out, Fujiwara turned round to see two men, one wearing a hat and clogs and the other one wearing what looked like a work uniform with a apron over it.

"Do as the boss says", the one with the apron said, pushing Fujiwara down forcefully.

"Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow!", Fujiwara cried out in pain, "Don't do that!", he added.

Fujiwara sat back down on the floor and looked at the two men, he asked, "Who are you, and where am I exactly.

"Your in a humble work place called the Urahara Shop", the man in the clogs said joyfully, "And I am the owner, Urahara Kiskue", he added.

"I am a worker in the shop, my name is Tessai Tsukabishi", the other man said.

The first thing that entered Fujiwara's mind was why did the one in the clogs say his name in Romanji, but he put it out of his mind and asked him.

"How did you find me?"

"Well, we saw you fighting with them Shinigami and we saw that you got pretty beat up, so Tessai over here patched you up and we brought you here to rest", Urahara replied.

"Uh, thanks Tessai-san", Fujiwara said awkwardly, for some reason he just couldn't find himself comfortable with Tessai in the room.

"Your welcome", Tessai replied, his tone was straightforward and serious, which unnerved Fujiwara even more.

"Also,", Fujiwara said, turning back round to Urahara, "How can you see Shinigami?"

"Because by extension, we were Shinigami", Urahara replied, his tone changed from being light and carefree to more serious.

"W-what!", Fujiwara said in disbelief, he couldn't wrap his head around how he got saved by the same people who tried to kill him.

"But that isn't what is important at the minute, you want to save your friend don't you?", Urahara said.

"Y-yeah", Fujiwara weakly muttered, he was still thinking about how the two men in front of him were Shinigami.

"Well rest up and we shall discuss it tomorrow, it's late", Urahara and Tessai left the room, Fujiwara, feeling rather weak, lay down and went to sleep.
