Hollow Hearts Unveiled

Rukia

Ichigo? Orihime? What are you two doing here alone?

Orihime

R-Rukia-chan! It's not what it looks like!

Ichigo

We were just... practicing spiritual pressure control. Together.

Yoruichi

Practicing alone in a locked dojo? How very... intimate.

Rukia

You two have been meeting secretly for weeks, haven't you?

Orihime

Yes! I... I've been helping Ichigo with his inner hollow control!

Ichigo

(They don't know Orihime's been having nightmares about her brother again...)

Yoruichi

The real question is... why hide it from your nakama, Ichigo?

Rukia

(Is he protecting her... or is there something deeper between them?)
