Ch 1 the decision

"Everyone to your stations!" A random shinigami yelled. The ryoka just hit the barrier in some kind of orb of energy. Vice-Captain Hinamori was in a panic, "Why are they attacking?" She got an idea. Running away from the others she found a good spot. "Hado 73 Soren sokatsui!" The two blasts of blue reiryoku plowed into the orb. Out of the smoke 5 balls of smoke and energy going in the Seireitei. The thing that scared her was, one was headed right at her!

Momo jumped out of the way just in time to not get hit by the living projectile. After the smoke cleared she pulled out her zanpakuto, ready to fight whoever thought they could fight the second in command of the fifth division. "Fuck, what the hell hit the stupid ball." The boy that stood up, holding his head, in the crater muttered.

"Hey you, boy," she started in the most assertive voice she had, "surrender now or prepare to fight." She was sure this guy would either surrender or- her thought process stopped when she saw the giant cleaver of a sword that had to be his zanpakuto.

"Who are you?" The boy asked, but his face kept a determined look.

"It is polite to give your name before asking someone else's." She Said it the same and got into a better stance to counter his giant sword.

"Kurosaki Ichigo." He replied pulling the blade from his back and pointing it at her.

"Fifth division lieutenant Hinamori Momo." She said. "Hado 33 sokatsui!" She yelled and fired the blast at her opponent.

He blocked the attack by slicing right through it. "Nice to meet you." He responded to her attack by rushing at her and a horizontal sweep of his blade was blocked by her small one.

"Hes way too strong." She thought. The force of the attack forced her small body to slide five feet away from him. Pointing her blade at him, she yelled "Snap Tobiume!" The release of her zanpakuto came with a pink flash and a ball of fire reiryoku shot at Ichigo.

"Shi-" He began but was cut off as the blast hit directly on his chest. he went they the near wall and fell into the rubble of the next one.

"Got him." Momo thought, pleased because she believed she just beat the odd orange haired shinigami. Her thoughts were proved wrong when he stood up out of the rocks. "No way! How could he even be alive!" She was too shocked for words.

"My turn." Ichigo smirked. She managed to block the first swing, and the second, but the third pushed her shikai into her head. "How is this guy this strong." were the last thoughts that went threw her brain as they were consumed by darkness.

"What the hell was that attack?" Ichigo thought as he stood up from the rubble that was a wall. "fucking hurt." He looked at the horrified face of his opponent. Hinamori Momo was her name, at least according to her. For a minute he thought he looked cute, but pushed it to the back of his mind so he could focus on the problem at hand.

Ichigo ran at her swinging overhead, then from the left side, then the right side, not giving her a chance to counter. The force of his blow made her own sword hit her head. As she was falling he caught her. "I can't just leave a girl laying here." He wondered, "I can just haul her around, she can tell me were Rukia is!" He decided to carry her on his back until he could get some information from her. "What to i do after, keep her hostage?" Ichigo was unsure. "I could just let her go, or whatever." He decided to cross that bridge when he came to it.

Picking up her zanpakuto, which had changed back to its sealed state, he put it in her sheath and lifted her on to his back. "For the mean time I need to find Chad Or someone...What the hell?" He said out loud as he Noticed that Ganju was running right by him.

"Shinigami." Was all Ganju said as he ran by. Looking in front of him again he saw two shinigami running behind Ganju. One stopped and pulled his zanpakuto to fight Ichigo.

"Hey. My name is Madarame Ikkaku, third seat of the eleventh division." Ikkaku said. "Whats your name?"

"Kurosaki Ichigo." Ichigo said in response. "Only third seat huh? I just beat a Fuku-taicho, so you should be easier, right?" He sat down Hinamori against a wall.

Ikkaku whistled, "The fifth division Fuku-taicho, huh. But I'm from the eleventh division. We in this division are fighters, so I'm probably close in strength to most of the fuku-taichos." Ikkaku smirked, "So don't underestimate me, Ichigo."

"Same goes for you, Ikkaku." Ichigo replied along with a overhead swing. Ikkaku blocked with his sheath, surprising Ichigo into leaving an opening. Ikkaku took advantage by stabbing at his ribs. Ichigo moved to were it barely cut into his side.

Grinding his teeth in pain, Ichigo jumped back. "Pretty big zanpakuto." Ikkaku told him. "Whats its name."

"I'll tell you if you tell me." Was Ichigo's response, "I thought you wouldn't underestimate me."

"If your ready to die then OK." Ikkaku slammed his hilt into the open end of his sheath, "Extend, Hozukimaru!" Wind enveloped his zanpakuto. When it died down a spear with a red tassel on the blunt end.

Ichigo attacked again, making Ikkaku bloke with his staff. "Zangetsu." Ichigo said. "You think I'm scared of a Spear?"

"Hozukimaru is not a Spear." Ikkaku stated, "Its a sansetsuken." after he said that, the weapon split into three segments, surprising Ichigo once again, him leaving with a shallow cut on his left shoulder.

"Fuck." Ichigo commented on the fight. "I have to end this fast, or else i might lose." He charged Ikkaku his sword above his head. "This is it Ikkaku!"

"Give me your best, Ichigo!" He put Hozukimaru up to block the attack then counter attack.

Ichigo yelled as he brought Zangetsu down. "Aahhhhhh!" His blade cut through Hozukimaru, and into Ikkaku's chest. Blood splattered on the ground, and Ikkaku fell to the ground.

"Good fight Ikkaku." Ichigo said to his opponent.

Ikkaku laughed. "As a reward for beating me, ill give you something to close your wounds."

"Really?" Ichigo asked, "How do I know your not going to lie to me?"

Ikkaku just smiled, "I'm an honorable fighter, I won't lie to the winner. I'm going to die anyway." He breathed before he continued. "In the hilt of my sword is some medical ointment to close wounds. Use that."

Ichigo picked up the sword, which had changed back, and popped of the end of the hilt. Putting his finger in the opening, he gets the ointment out and covers his cuts. "Thanks. can you answer a question for me?" He asked the Bleeding man.

"Sure fire away, if I don't die first."

"Were are they keeping Rukia Kuchiki?"

Ikkaku started roaring with laughter. "That's why you came here, to save her?"

"Yeah that's why we came here." He said slightly, irritated as he started to put some ointment on Ikkaku's injuries.

"What are you doing? Stop!" Ikkaku was hitting him. "I should die, I lost!"

"Who cares? Would you rather die, or fight me again?"

Ikkaku calmed down. "I have to fight you again for this mark on my pride."

"That's fine by me. Are you going to answer the question?"

"Yeah, just go to that white tower over there." He pointed to a white tower in the distance.

"Thanks Ikkaku." Ichigo picked up Hinamori and put her back on his back.

"I have a few questions for you, if you'll answer." Ikkaku said.

Ichigo stopped, "Yeah go ahead."

"How many of you guys are there?" Was the first question.

"There's five of us." He answered, "And a cat."

"Pfft, Only that many?" Ikkaku burst with his amusement. "You expect to get your friend back with five people and a cat?"

"Is that all you wanted to know?"

"Who is the strongest in your group?"

Ichigo thought for a second. "That would be me I guess."

"Then watch out for my Taicho, he only cares about strong opponents and will be after you."

"Whats his name?" Ichigo seemed kinda worried.

"Kenpachi Zaraki." He looked at him and smiled. "For my last question," His smile widened. "Why are you carrying Hinamori-fukutaicho on your back?"

Ichigo froze. "I-I'm not do-doing anything, I j-just don't want to l-leave a defenseless girl laying out here on the g-ground." His face was beet red.

"Pretty 'innocent' reason, you sure you're not planning on just having some company tonight." Ikkaku was having some fun along with his pain.

"No," His face turned closer to it's normal color, "When she wakes up she can just walk away, or fight me again, or whatever. I am not going to stop her from doing anything, I just don't want the guilty feeling of leaving her there alone."

"I trust you, don't worry, but I might have to tell them you have her."

"Go ahead, Shouldn't bother me, hopefully." With that he walked away with a Small girl on his back, to save Rukia.

Well the end of the first chapter is here. I don't really have anything to say except I hope you all liked it.
