An/e: this is one of my first stories so please bear with me through it. I got the idea from reading a bunch of fanfics where Ichigo and Rukia were switched. But their last names remained the same and so did their siblings. And then this idea blossomed in my head.

Disclaimer: I do not own bleach or its characters. If I did, bleach would not be as awesome as it is.

"speaking"

'thoughts'

Thud! The gang leader was just sent flying backward.

"Wat that crazed woman do to him?" one of the goonies asked.

"I have a couple of questions to ask you," she asked.

"yeah," another goony answered.

"Why is that vase," she asked, pointing to to a fallen vase, " laying on its side? Smelly, you answer!"

"I guess that we knocked it over while we were skateboarding," goony one answered.

"Right," the girl answered. "So how would you feel if someone defiled your grave? Stupid! How 'bout you answer."

"Well, I'd uh feel very sad and angry," goony two answered.

"So what do you say?"

"We're sorry!" the goonies yelled, picking up their leader and running.

"That should be the last you see of them."

"Thank you," the goust of a young girl answered.

"Whatever," the woman answered, as she walked home.

"My lovely daughter has returned!" a man yelled, launching himself at the girl.

The girl simply sidestepped and the man was lunched out the door.

A light headed girl was worried. "Will dad be okay?"

"Relax Yuzu," a black haired girl replied. "He'll pop up any moment."

"I supose you're right," Yuzu answered.

"Hey Karin," the woman said," how was your day?"

"Same as ever," the black haired girl (Karin) answered.

"But Rukia," Yuzu started," are you okay? I mean dad just launched himself at you again!"

"I'm fine," the woman (Rukia) replied.

"Masaki!" the dad yelled/sobbed to a memorial poster. "My daughters hate me!"

"Rukia, why don't you come eat?" Yuzu asked, ignoring their father's sobbes.

"Naw, I'm not hungry right now. Why don't you save some for me later" Rukia asked.

Rukia was laying on her bed.

A man clad in black with a giant sword on his back walked through the window.

"Hey!" Rukia shouted. "You just can't walk into someones room."

The man ignored her.

"the hallow is near. I just can't sence where," the man said.

"Whats hallow? The safe! Did you already rob us and come back for more!" Rukia yelled, kicking the man in his back.

The man got up.

"and who are you? I'd hate to think you're a robber, because, even a newbie wouldn't just walk into plain sight!"

"I'm surprised that you can see me. Even more that you can touch me," the man said, putting his hand on Rukia's head. " you must be brocken. You have to be, especially because of your hieght, miget."

Rukia tried to slap him, but the man just moved out or the way.

"what are you?" Rukia asked.

"I could tell you, but you might not believe me," the man replied.

"So. Tell me anyway. I'll decide if I believe you or not."

The man shrugged, "if you say so."

He sat down and Rukia fallowed suiit.

"Okay," Rukia said. "You said that you're something called a shimigami, or death god."

The man nodded.

"and you have two main jobs and one other job."

The man nodded again.

"One of the jobs you have is to send spirits to the soul socity or as we might call it, heaven."

The man nodded.

"the other job is to purify these hallows so that they can go to the soul socity."

The man nodded again.

"And you also make sure that everyone is safe from these hallows."

"Yes," the man answered," the hallows feed on souls, living and dead."

"Like that is believable! You expect me to believe you when I've never seen a hallow and right now I'm seeing my first shimigami I've ever seen?"

"No."

Rukia blinked.

"I told you, midget, that I didn't expect you to believe me."

A vien popped on Rukia's forhead. "I'm a miget." she hit him with the closet thing she had, her sketchbook.

A piercing howl filled the sky.

"did you hear that?" Rukia asked.

The man nodded.

"Ru-Rukia," Yuzu whispered, " it got Karin. R-run away." Yuzu collapsed.

"I've gotta help!"

"No1 bakudo number one, Sai!" the man yelled.

Instantly, Rukia's hands were bound behind her back as she fell to the ground.

"What did you do? I need to help my sisters!" Rukia yelled.

"demon arts, bakudo. And I won't let you go. You'll only get in the way," the man answered, running down the stairs.

"wait! They're my sisters!" Rukia shouted.

"Have to get sown there," Rukia whispered. She managed to fall down the stairs.

"Stay back! The hallow is way to strong for you to handle! The man yelled.

It was then that Rukia spotted Karin in the monster's hand.

She immediately struggled against the binding.

"that could be bad," the man shouted. "STOP!"

The binding was thrown off Rukia.

'no big surprise,' the man thought. ' I suck at this kind of stuff.'

Rukia grabbed a chair and ran towards the hallow.

The hallow simply swiped her away.

The man took the opportunity to cut off the arm that was holding Karin.

The man caught her and carefully put her down.

The hallow retreated.

"its finally gone!" Rukia yelled.

"No its not over," the man replied. "its hungry and I think I know whaty it wants to eat."

"what?"

"the hallow is after you. Don't worry, I've beaten bigger, much bigger," the man replied.

"So my sisters and dad were hurt because of me? I-I feel so guilty."

The hallow reappeared with a new arm.

"hey!" Rukia yelled. "don't you dare hurt my family! Come and get me if you can!" she stood with her arms out wide.

The hallow howled and charged.

Rukia closed her eyes waiting for the blow that didn't come.

"you idiot miget," the man said. "did you really think that you alone would fill it? This creature will still come back, most likely to your family."

The man cut off part of the hallow's mask.

"Too shallow!" he yelled as the hallow retreated.

"do you want to save your family?" he asked.

"of corse I do!" Rukia replied.

"then we'll try this. Its forbidden and could kill you. I also wouldn't have too if I didnthave to protect you."

"I'll try! What do I have to do?"

"take my zampacto and plung it to the center of your being."

Rukia nodded. "Albright shimigami, I'll do it."

"its not shimigami," the man said. "Its Ichigo. Ichigo Kuchiki."

"And mine is Rukia Kurosaki."

The sword was plunged into her chest. When the smoke cleared, there stood Rukia clad in the outfit of a shimigami. Her katana was that of a regular one, instead of a giant's sword like Ichigo.

"You dare hurt my family! Now you die!" Rukia yelled, charging at the hallow.

She cut off its arm and hallow blood was everywhere.

It swiped with the other arm and Rukia managed to jump it. Finally, Rukia managed to cut the hallow's mask and it disappeared.
