Going fast makes me feel alive

My heart beats in hyper drive

Do you think you can win?

Only if I lose

Just let destiny choose

I can hear you breathing

I can see you coming

I can feel the wind

It's blowing me around

Take a shot at me running side by side

It's a blur…as I go by

I can hear you breathing

I can see you coming

I can feel the wind

It's blowing me around

See the sun arising

Fire in the sky

Greatness thrusts itself into our lives.

A few months have passed since Ichigo and his friends have dueled against the members of the Soul Society and it was discovered that Aizen, Kaname, and Gin were discovered traitors. It has been made unclear what they've been up to, but Ichigo and the others have been on good terms with them.

"Zangetsu, attack him directly!" Ichigo said as he had Zangetsu attack and he won his duel. Ichigo heard clapping and saw it was his girlfriend, Orihime.

"Great as always." Orihime said.

"Thanks, Orihime. I need to be at the top of my game all the time. You never know when we're going to run into trouble again." Ichigo said. "It was such a mess against Byakuya and the rest of the Soul Society with Fae. Now, that Aizen guy is out there and who knows what he's up to."

"Don't worry about it too much. It will all be fine." Orihime said as she grabbed his arm. "We better get going, our free period is almost over."

"I guess you're right." Ichigo said as they headed back to class.

…..

Soul Society

The Soul Society was an organization that studied dueling. They tempted to destroy the duel monster spirit world, but changed since they were all deceived by Sosuke Aizen. Now, they became a normal organization that supports future duelists. Right now, the man in charge, Yamamoto, was in the middle of some paper work when he heard a knock on his door.

"Come in." Yamamoto said and it was Byakuya Kuchiki that entered.

"Here is that paper you wanted." Byakuya said as he placed paperwork on his desk.

"Thank you, Mr. Kuichiki." Yamamoto said.

"I must ask, haven't you been wondering what Aizen is up to?" Byakuya said.

"He has been quiet, but we can't drop our guard. We don't know what he's up to and he could strike at any moment." Yamamoto said. "If that comes, we might need the help of Ichigo Kurosaki."

Ichigo

When Ichigo and Orihime returned to class, girls were all over Ichigo as he was asking for an autograph since Ichigo was considered a dueling pro. He tried to get out, but they wouldn't listen.

"Are you alright, Orihime? It's not bothering you that all those girls are over Ichigo, is it?" Rukia said.

"Not at all. He's dedicated to our relationship and I have no reason to doubt him." Orihime said.

"That's a great way to look at it. You must have a lot of faith in him." Tatsuki said.

"By the way, where is Uryu, Renji, Chad, and the others?" Orihime said.

"They're trying to get some extra practice in. They want to be able to keep up with Ichigo." Tatsuki said.

"Enough! Will you girls leave me alone?" Ichigo said. When he was finally able to get free, class ended and they met up with the rest of the guys which was Rangiku, Ikkaku, Renji, Chad, Yumichika, and Uryu.

"How's it going?" Ichigo said.

"Doing some extra training. You want a duel to see how far we've come?" Renji said.

"Hold on, I get him first." Ikkaku said.

"Slow down boys. Ladies first." Rangiku said.

"Will all of you slow down?" Ichigo said.

"All of you need to settle down. We need to keep this orderly." Uryu said.

"How did I get in these kinds of situations?" Ichigo said.

"That's the down side of being a champion." Yumichika said. "People will be asking for duels, but it's better than having others cowardly avoid you."

"If all of you are done, there's something you might want to see." Chad said. All of them felt a change in the wind and it looked like that there was something opening in thin air.

"What's going on?" Rangiku said.

"This can't be good." Rukia said. A black hole opened up and two people were coming out. One of them was giant with black hair in a ponytail on the back of his bald head. The other was much smaller with pale white skin and green lines running down from his eyes.

"So this the place?"

"You really should pay more attention."

"Ha, this place doesn't look all that great." The giant pulled out his dull disk and placed a card. It caused a great shockwave and shattered some windows and blew Ichigo and the others back.

"This looks like trouble. Rangiku, Yumichika Ikkaku, you might want to get everyone out of here." Ichigo said as he ran over to the strange two. "Stop right there."

"Who's this little punk?"

"Weren't you paying any attention, Yammy? This is our target."

"Who are the two of you?" Ichigo said.

"My name is Ulquiorra and my associate here is Yammy."

"Ulquiorra and Yammy?" Ichigo questioned.

"Ulquiorra, are you sure this is the guy we're after?" Yammy said.

"Yes. He fits the description we were given." Ulquiorra said.

"Excellent. Since you saved us the trouble of looking for you, we can get right down to business." Yammy said as he held out his duel disk.

"You want to duel? Bring it on!" Ichigo said and he turned his on with his deck placed inside.

"Let's duel!" Both of them said and had 4000LP.

"I'll go first." Yammy said as he drew his card. "I summon my Rage Bear in attack mode." A bear that was surrounded by red aura came up with 1600atk points. "I'll place two cards face down and end my turn."

"I'm concerned." Rukia said as she and the others were watching. "Who are these guys and what do they want?"

"I'm not sure, but they seem to be after Ichigo for some reason. Let's look carefully." Uryu said.

"It's my go now." Ichigo said. "To start, I summon Reaper of Spirits in attack mode." His reaper like warrior came on the field and had 1700atk points. "Reaper, attack his rage bear!"

"You idiot! When you attack Rage Bear, he gains 500atk points." Yammy said and his bear became more powerful with 2100atk points. "That's not all. I'm going to use my Angry Force trap card. This trap gives my monster another 800atk points when he already gained some." His bear now had 2900atk points. The bear slashed at the reaper and destroyed it and Ichigo was left with 2800LP.

"I guess I'll just place this one card face down to end my turn." Ichigo said.

"Good. Since it's the end phase, my bear's attack points return to normal." Yammy said and his bear dropped back down to 1600. "I think I'll use my second face down card, Rage of Beasts. This trap card allows me to summon a level four or lower beast as long as I have another on the field. I summon Rage Elephant!" An elephant with the same red aura rose on the field at 1900atk points.

"Oh no! Those two monsters have enough attack points to end the duel right now." Uryu said.

"Too bad. I don't really see what makes you special." Yammy said.

"This duel isn't over yet. I activate the trap, Soul of Defense!" Ichigo said. "This trap allows me to summon a monster in defense mode and you can't attack this turn. I think I'll summon Twin Shield Blocker." Ichigo's warrior with two shield came up and had 1900def points.

"Okay, you might have bought yourself some time, but you still won't win." Yammy said. "I think I'll summon my Rage Dog." A small dog came up and kept barking with it having 600atk points. "Now you're in trouble. I unite my level four, earth attribute Rage Bear, Rage Elephant, and my level two Rage Dog." All three of them became orange energy and came together on the ground. "I unite summon Ira!" A creature bigger than a dinosaur with ten legs and a mace like tail with black rods coming out of it rose up and had 3000atk points.

"Look at that thing!" Renji said.

"It's huge and scary." Orihime said.

"Don't forget that it's ugly too." Ichigo said.

"I might not be able to attack, but I can still deal some damage thanks to Ira's special ability." Yammy said. If I use one unite unit, he can destroy a monster and you lose 1000LP." The monster fired an energy blast from its mouth and destroyed Ichigo's defender. Ichigo was pushed away by the force and was brought down to 1800LP. "You're lucky I can only use that once a turn and that you only had one monster. Otherwise I would have crushed you by now."

"We're far from done." Ichigo said.

"Then let's see your true power." Ulquiorra said. "Lord Aizen has some interest in you and we want to be able to see it."

"Did you say Aizen? You two are working for him?" Ichigo said.

"That would be correct and, if necessary, we have orders to finish you off for good." Ulquiorra said.
