Ichigo didn't believe in a lot of things. Yet, over the course of several years, some of those doubts became reality when he came into contact with them. Ichigo hadn't believed there was such a thing as a vampire when he was younger. Probably around a year old when he had first joined the clans that he was accustomed too. He didn't think that it was possible that a creature could solely live on the blood of other animals and not deal with the consequences of such. The wildcat. It was that disbelief that had ended up with him getting bit. It had almost been an accident when their leader had disappeared only to return. Her name was Crackedstar and she was a lion compared to the likes of Ichigo. They hadn't necessarily been all that close to one another, but they were still clanmates and Ichigo was worried about her. She had replaced Glorystar, who hadn't been the greatest of leaders but had still been family regardless. Everyone had looked forward to her leadership only to be able to see her for such a short time. It was almost sad. Ichigo had approached the lion with a couple of questions that he had been wondering about where she had been. The Shinigami was then told by Crackedstar to stay away from her and keep away.

Ichigo didn't like the idea of listening to that kind of command when it was obvious that there was someone in pain and that there was probably something he could do to help them. Ichigo had pushed her when he shouldn't have, and he ended up paying the price. The lion was a lot stronger than he was when it came to outright strength, and she had moved fast enough to defend himself. But at the same time, his body didn't react all that much because he didn't think that his leader would be attacking him right then and there and that there was something else that was happening. The lion had pinned him into the tree, and it was a miracle that he didn't die from her several inch long canines sliding into his neck. It had been so damn painful from what he could remember and the strange feeling of his blood leaving his body without a massive wound has already been open. Of course, dealing with wounds was something that the cougar was known for dealing with in the clan, but this was something entirely different. Eventually, he was able to kick the lion off of him and he landed on the ground clutching his throat. He demanded answers, and he acquired said answers now that Crackedstar was capable of actually speaking and seemed to be mentally functional. She was a vampire. Ichigo didn't really fully understand what that even was, but he didn't blame the female all that much since it was obvious that she didn't have control.

The Shinigami then had the next rough couple of weeks, almost a month. Being bitten by a vampire and then living usually didn't happen, and so the effects of almost turning into a vampire raked his body. But at the same time, being a Shinigami meant that his body immediately began to fight off the effects of turning into a vampire. However, it made him extremely sick to where he almost couldn't move at all and couldn't stomach any food. After a while, he was finally able to eat something and gathered his strength back. Ichigo guessed that he was lucky to be alive, and it was one out of two scars that were on either side of his neck. The small portion of metal armor that protected the back of his neck hid the scar slightly, but if he turned his neck in a certain direction the scar would become even more visible. With the aspect of death looming over a place that he barely understood, the Shinigami didn't sleep. He wasn't that great of a sleeper with insomnia he had developed over the years and he didn't want to be late to save someone's life. A heavy sigh escaped his jaws as he remained somewhere near the border. He didn't have a home of his own, as he didn't feel like claiming one just yet.

Ichigo had no reason to when he still wasn't sure how long he would be staying anyway. Enhanced hearing certainly helped him listening to whatever was going on in the territory. This allowed him to hear a scream that rang out into the night. Ichigo's head immediately snapped up as he turned his head in the direction of a scream. The Shinigami cursed under his breath as he sprinted in the direction that all the sounds were coming from. He teleported the rest of the way before he evidently teleported next to the corpse that was on the ground. His bi-colored widened in shock as he noticed two holes on the side of the dead domestic cat's neck that was on the ground, and his eyes turned in the direction of one familiar face and one not. Infirmaryward. The scent of blood was coming off of their body, and his eyes narrowed. They killed them. Unless he was missing something. A spark of blue fire flickered off of one of his paws as a growl escaped his jaws, his long tail lashing behind him. "Explanation. NOW!" The Shinigami shouted, obviously upset over another corpse after having just dealt with seven corpses yesterday. However, Ichigo remained by the corpse and didn't approach Infirmaryward. If she made any attempt to attack anyone, his teleportation would be quick enough to get into her way.
