She was trying to protect Ichigo from the Soul Reapers from the Soul Society that were coming to arrest her. Soon after the incident with Uryu, Ichigo found Rukia missing form the closet and Kon had been bound and gagged. Ichigo ultimately managed to injure the Menos by deflecting it's Cero blast with his zanpakutō. Ichigo and Uryu killed countless Hollows, and they had to band together to stop a Menos Grand that appeared. Hollows were flooding into the city that were attracted by the bait, but they were far more than Uryu had anticipated. Ichigo thought this was going to be a one-on-one, but he was shocked as Uryu released what he referred to as Hollow bait. The second greatest challenge Ichigo faced was when he was challenged by Uryu Ishida, a Quincy, to a battle for who was the better. He did eventually stab Grand Fisher, and it fled before it could be killed. Ichigo suffered serious injuries in this fight becasue the Hollow had used his humanoid lure to take on the form of his mother. In this fight, Ichigo fought against the Hollow known as Grand Fisher, the monster who had tricked Ichigo as a child and murdered his mother. One of Ichigo's more earth shattering threats was when his family went to visit his mother's grave on the anniversary of her death.
