Chapter 2

Ichigo. Wake up, Ichigo.

Hmngh? Who is that?

Wake up, lazy bones.

Is that Zangetsu talking? Then this must be Karakura Town.

Wait, am I dreaming again?

We have a guest today. Come, follow me.

Wait, a guest? In my dream?

Ichigo! Help me!

Wait, is that Dad? But why does he look like that? What's going on?

Your father informed me that they're building a new enormous shopping mall and theme park near Karakura Town.

But the question begs: when will it be done?

Hell if I know!

Huh? Wait, you brought me all this way just to ask me that?

Everyone is waiting for it. But you were lying, weren't you?

I wasn't lying! It's true, I really did hear the news from someone.

I just forgot who told me, is all.

You're always saying things without any proof. This is what you get.

How mean! I only brought it up because I thought it'd make you all happy. What have I done to deserve this treatment?

You'll make your poor father cry!

Yeah, yeah, cry me a river. Now think about what you've done!

Go ahead and leave him there.

Huh? You won't help me?

If that's all you wanted, can I leave now?

Oh no, there's more.
