The Battle Against The Klaxousaurs

In the temporary base that they were in outside of Equestria Ichigo was sitting on a chair looking down in shame as the rest of her friends and Rarity stared down at her while talking to her, the conversation about the incident where Ichigo had tried to split up Hiro and Zero Two was very harsh as Ichogo could not defend her actions against the condemnation by her friends, even if this happened a while back her friends were all still pretty upset about it including Rarity who had found out when she started to help her friends.

"Seriously Ichigo it just wasn't cool for you to do that, I have heard all of the details about how you manipulated your friends together to help you keep Zero Two from Hiro just because you were jealous, you should be ashamed of yourself." Rarity scolded.

Ichigo couldn't come up with a defense, she should have known she was going to have to deal with this at some point once again and now she was dealing with it and she was unprepared.

"Yeah Ichigo how could you bend our wills like that? It's just not nice to do." Goro said, Goro sighed in frustration while also being a bit upset.

"I'm sorry okay! Besides that was years ago and Hiro and Zero Two are long gone, I can't fix the wrong I have done no matter what I do so what do you want from me!?" Ichigo complained.

"We are trying to scold you for trying to separate Hiro and Zero Two, not only did you try and keep you apart you tried to get Hiro to fall in love with you, you only did this entire thing just because you were jealous so don't try and deny it." Futoshi said.

"know that! You don't have to remind me! Look how many times do I have to apologize for you to believe me!? Everybody makes mistakes, I'm not perfect okay! I was dealing with heartache so I thought that separating them would be for their own good and my good because Hiro was getting hurt by Zero Two and I was getting hurt emotionally." Ichigo explained.

"That doesn't give you the right to try and separate Hiro and Zero Two I don't care how you put it, you committed a disgraceful act that went unpunished until now." Kokoro ranted, Ichigo started to cry.

"Please don't hurt me! Give me an extra chance please! I thought this was over and done with but yet hear you all are starting a conflict over my past actions even when I admitted that I was wrong to do it, I said sorry!" Ichigo said.

"It doesn't matter if you admitted that you were wrong as nothing will change what you did, you acted like a brat who wanted her way when we separated Hiro and Zero Two, you were lucky that they got back together in the end and Hiro didn't kill himself because if he had killed himself it would have been our faults since we put Zero Two through more pain than she was already going through." Mitsuru ranted. Tears welled up in Ichigo's eyes, she couldn't deal with this.

"What are you going to do to me?!" Ichigo cried, Rarity narrowed her eyes as she watched her while she thought up a punishment for Ichigo, she finally thought up a brilliant one so she whispered it to Hiro's friends who agreed with her idea.

"Ichigo for what you have done I think we should give you a taste of your own medicine and separate you from Goro, maybe then you'll feel what Zero Two had felt." Rarity said, Ichigo was frightened by this prospect she did not like the idea at all.

"No please I beg of you! Don't do this to me!" Ichigo yelled, her friends closed in on her so Ichigo tried to escape but before she could she was pinned to the ground by her friends, she struggled desperately under their grasps."

"No! Nononononononono! Get off of me!" Ichigo yelled as she was restrained, the dragged her kicking and screaming to a huge closet where she tried to push her way out but her friends blocked her from escaping and they closed the door and and locked her inside.

"Get me out! Please don't leave me here!" Ichigo screamed, she banged against the door as she struggled to get out, the closet was dark and scary she could already feel the loneliness and fear creep up on her.

"Open the damn door! Nohohohohohohohoho!" Ichigo screamed, as Ichigo screamed and cried hours passed and as she did that she realized the feeling Zero Two was feeling, the feeling of loneliness, it snagged at her heart and plunged it into a deep despair.

As Ichigo cried and screamed those screams turned into sobbing as she realized just how lonely and scared Zero Two felt and as she realized she wasn't getting out for a while.

Ichigo was locked in their for an entire hour as that's what her friends wanted her to experience, they needed Ichigo to feel the pain she caused a teammate, it was a necessary punishment.

Ichigo sat down and buried her head into her legs and rocked back and forth while she prayed for someone to come and let her out and apologized in silence for what she had her teammates do to Zero Two.

The closets thick blackness was almost enough to give her nightmares, it was absolutely terrifying, with no way out until her friends let her go she continued to cry inside the closet.

After one hour and ten minutes her friends opened the door and Ichigo was let out and comforted while Ichigo wiped her tears away.

"I guess I had that coming for a while...when I was in their I felt the same exact feeling Zero Two felt, I can't believe I put her through that when's all she wanted to do was to see Hiro. I'm so sorry I'm especially sorry for Hiro and Zero Two."

"We forgive you, say an apology to Hiro and Zero Two." Goro stated, Ichigo sighed as she looked up at the ceiling.

"Wherever you guys are up their I'm sorry for what I did, I hope you can forgive me." Ichigo said. Ichigo hugged her friends.

"I'm so sorry for what I did." Ichigo whispered as she hugged her friends.

"Don't worry your forgiven." Futoshi said, they all stopped hugging and decided to lighten the mood so they hung out and put a puzzle together with eachother. Once they were done Ichigo was finally cheered up so they all went to do something else before they went off to continue fight Klaxousaurs attacking Equestria.
