Devils, Death Gods, and Hollows oh my!

A/N: I apologize for my long absence. Officially none of my stories have been abandoned as of yet. I got back a month ago from deployment and played FF14 for a majority of the month. I will now focus most of my time on writing now. I sincerely apologize for the delay. A special thanks to all those who read and support my Fanfictions.

Chapter One

Not a creature stirred in the dark woods as a gentle night breeze rustled the leaves. All was quiet and still. The silence was broken by a set of voices as a glowing red runic circle appeared in the woods as it carried five individuals to their destination, a large abandoned house that lay in the center of the woods on the outskirts of town.

"So stray devils start off as devil servants," questioned a brown haired teenager dressed in the Kuoh Academy uniform for males with the blazer open revealing a red shirt underneath. "You mean like us?"

"No, not exactly," answered a blonde boy about his age dressed in the same uniform the only difference being he wore his in accordance with the schools uniform guidelines. "Once in a while a servant rebels and kills its master in order to gain freedom. Then, they become strays."

"According to the reports this stray has been tricking people into this abandoned house and eating them," explained a buxom young woman with raven hair that fell just below her waist, dressed in the female uniform for Kuoh Academy.

"Gross," exclaimed the brown haired teenager in disgust.

"Tonight's job shouldn't be too hard," said the raven haired girl, "just find the beast and kill it"

"These monsters are pure evil," explained the blonde teenager, "they don't care about anything but their own selfish desires. And that always ends in ugliness."

The group of five teenagers, or rather, devils for that is what they truly were, made their way towards the desolate house. They were led by a young woman with long blood red hair that fell just below her waist with a body that would have even professional models seething in a jealous rage. This was none other than Rias Gremory, the heir to the Gremory clan, one of the last noble houses left in existence after the great war.

Following her was her peerage which consisted of the raven haired beauty Akeno Himejima, her queen, Kiba Yuuto, her knight, Koneko Toujou, the rook and finally bringing up the rear was the newest addition to her peerage, the possessor of the rare sacred gear, the boosted gear as well as self-proclaimed super pervert Issei Hyoudou, the pawn…

As they walked through the doors into the main area of the house they were engulfed by a strange fog that seemed to come out of nowhere.

"Umm… Buchou," started Issei nervously as he tried to see through the unnatural fog, "is this normal."

"No, it isn't," replied Rias as she narrowed her eyes in suspicion as she too struggled to see in the thick fog. "Stay close everyone I need to be able to get us all out of here in case worst come to worse."

"Hai Buchou," replied her peerage in near unison.

They began to make their way slowly through fog filled room each of them straining their eyes looking out for the stray devil or incoming attacks.

The crept along slowly for several minutes until…

"Hold on I smell something," said Koneko sniffing the air as the group came to a stop, "It smells like blood."

"This is disappointing. It seems our stray has claimed more victims."

"No buchou," interrupted Koneko, "I didn't say that it was human blood."

"Huh," exclaimed Issei in surprise as he walked in to a large obstruction and fell into a pool of something wet and sticky as the stench of blood flooded his senses. When the dense fog started to clear away he was able to see the monstrous corpse of the dead stray that he had blindly walked into as well as the pool of blood he now found himself sitting in.

"Issei," Rias said gaining her pawns attention. "Are you alright?"

"Y-yeah," replied the perverted pawn as he shakily stood to his feet.

"It seems someone has beaten us to the punch on this one Buchou," commented Akeno her voice laced with disappointment at having her plaything taken from her.

"No Akeno, this isn't right," she said as she tried to analyze the situation, "There was nothing in the report about other devils coming to put down the stray."

She brought out of her thoughts as Koneko fell to her knees.

"Koneko are you alright?"

"So… tired," said the small devil as she lay down in the pool of blood beneath her and shut her eyes, falling into a deep slumber.

"Buchou," said Kiba struggling to stay on his feet, "there… is something in the air."

Realization dawned on her as she too started to feel sleepy, just the thought of standing was exhausting, "The fog…" She managed to say as her entire peerage was now fighting to stay awake. "This whole time we were breathing it in."

"My", how perceptive of you," said a voice that seemed to echo all around them, "And far more resilient than the last meal I had"

"Who's there," shouted Rias straining her tired eyes to find any sign of the foe, "Show yourself."

"Very well then creature," replied the voice, "I shall grant you your dying wish."

The mist started to disperse as a large humanoid form began to materialize, seemingly out of nowhere. It was nearly as large as Viser's monstrous form had been, it stood on two legs hunched over as its hands, which ended in wicked looking claws, rested on the ground before it. From each elbow jutted a sharp three foot bone while sharp spines adorned its back. Its skin was black with red streaks running from its spine to the end of its ribs ending in tips. But the most noticeable features were the gaping hole in its chest right where the heart should have been and the bone white mask that that covered the face of the grotesque creature before them.

"Wh-what are you," asked the wide eyed heiress.

"Hahaha," laughed the nightmarish creature, "I believe I have humored you long enough. After all it is bad etiquette to play with your food."

"Akeno," whispered Rias quickly to her queen never once removing her tired gaze from the slow approaching creature. "Prepare the teleportation spell and get us out of here. I will hold him off."

"Hai Buchou," replied a tired Akeno as she started to gather magic.

"What are you whispering about little girl," asked the curious monster as it halted its advance. "You're not planning on fighting are you? Wouldn't it just be far easier to succumb to slumber like those behind you?"

Rias didn't need to turn around to know that both Issei and Kiba had lost consciousness soon after the beast had appeared. She herself was only awake through shear willpower alone. But she would be damned if she would allow this monster to lay a hand on her peerage. She would die first.

"I… I won't allow you to lay a hand on them you monster," shouted out the young devil as she launched her power of destruction into the beasts face falling to her knees out of fatigue. She was rewarded with a pained roar as the spell found its mark clouding the creature in a dust cloud.

The dull red glow of the runic circle beneath made her relax as she and her peerage were lifted into the air as the teleportation spell took effect.

"You little bitch," roared out the creature as the dust started to clear.

Her spell had done far less damage than it normally would have. She had only managed to crack the creature's mask. As her consciousness started to fade, fragments of the mask fell away revealing the monster's true face. The face of a human.

In a flash of red light all five members of the occult research club were safely unconscious on the club floor.

Elsewhere…

"Ahh Ichigo so glad you could make it on such short notice," hailed the eccentric owner of the small shop slash mad scientist know to the world of the living and dead as Kisuke Urahara.

"Can it Hat'n Clogs," grumbled the hybrid being Ichigo Kurosaki as he walked into the madman's shop. "What do you want?"

"Ne," whined the scientist, "No hello, no how have you been Kisuke? You're so hurtful sometimes Ichigo."

"Get to the point or I'm gone."

"I see," said Kisuke as he put on a serious expression, "Follow me then."

Ichigo followed the older shinigami into a room behind the store that was far more spacious than it should have been. He was used to this by now but there was still one thing about Urahara's shop he was not used to…

"It's so good to see you again Ichigo," whispered a sultry voice into his ear as he was embraced from behind by a very naked Yoruichi.

"Y-Yoruichi," exclaimed Ichigo in a panic as he broke away and ran to a corner of the room his hands over his eyes as he peeped through his fingers. "Put some damn clothes on already!"

"Ne, what's wrong Ichigo," teased Yoruichi as she bent down in front of him giving him an ample look at her chest, "Aren't you happy to see me?"

"Y-yes now hurry up and put some damn clothes on!"

"Yoruichi I believe it would be more prudent if you do as he says for now. We need him to be coherent for what I am about to tell him."

The Goddess of the Flash merely sighed as she complied and started to slip into her usual attire. "You know Ichigo you say you aren't a pervert all you like but the way you are always peeping on me through your fingers says otherwise." She gave him an impish grin as she leaned in close again. "Besides, you know you like it."

"Sh-shut up," responed a very red Ichigo.

It was a few minutes before Ichigo had finally calmed down. Tessai had brought in some tea to help lighten the mood.

"Now then Ichigo," started the shop owner, "The reason I brought you here. Ichigo, what do you now about the multiverse."

"You mean that lame comic book theory that people use to describe how heroes can be transferred from one universe to another?"

"Yes that, as it turns out it isn't just some comic book theory. For years now our universe has come into close proximity with other universes. Every now and then a few hollows managed to slip through but that was nothing to worrying about as this phenomenon lasted no more than a day or two. However, recently another universe has come into close proximity to our own and has been so for a few weeks now with no sign of moving on. In fact the gap between the two is steadily becoming closer and closer."

"What are you saying Kisuke?"

"The current issue at hand is the massive flux of hollows that seems to be flooding into the other universe through gargantas that they are opening to this new world. We know not if this world has beings capable of destroying them or not but we do know is that there are beings other than humans on this world due to the strange abnormal readings we have been obtaining that differ greatly from those often emitted by humans."

"So you want me to go in and kill the hollows," asked Ichigo as if it would be no problem.

"That is only part of the issue. The other is that the possibility exists that our universes are merging. If that is the case then we need to get into contact with any non-human faction that may exist and parley with them. If a peaceful resolution cannot be met then central 46 has deemed it necessary for this other world and all of its inhabitants, human or otherwise to be destroyed."

"How can they do that," yelled an angry Ichigo as he abruptly stood to his feet knocking the table and all its contents to the floor.

"Calm down Ichigo," said Yoruichi as she put a hand on his shoulder. "There's no reason to get so worked up right now."

"She's right Ichigo, you see this is where you come in. you see after doing some research I have found a rather large concentration of this foreign energy in a school in this universes Japan so it should be an easy transition for you. Soul Society has alreasdy dispatched Captian Hitsugaya and his lieutenant to this world. Toshiro is currently attending this Kuoh Academy as a first year student who lives with his older cousin Rangiku."

"So you want me to go back to school," asked a now annoyed Ichigo, "Is that what you're saying."

"Come Ichigo I won't be that bad," teased the mad scientist, "You only just graduated. I'm sure can still pass off as a third or even second year student."

Ichigo could feel his eyebrow start to twitch but quickly composed himself as he sighed in defeat, "Fine I'm in."

"Ah there's also the matter of the arrancar."

"What about them?"

"A few of the more level headed ones have decided to join us on this little journey to help better nail out the terms of the treaty should one be reached so as to avoid the extermination of hollows if said beings are found capable of traveling to Hueco Mundo," explained Kisuke.

"Which ones," questioned the unruly teenager.

"Oh you'll see," said Kisuke with a mischievous grin.

Ichigo somehow felt like his life was about to become a living hell and very soon. "Fine… When do we leave?"

"Oh Ichigo," said the shop owner, a huge smile still plastered to his face as if he was trying not to laugh from the world funniest joke, "You should know me better than that by now. We're already here."

Ichigo's eyebrow was now twitching violently and uncontrollably, "You know Kisuke, sometimes I really hate you. I really do."

A/N: and that brings the first chapter of my newest and last to be published story to a close. I apologize to all my fans for the late updates and I am now here to nail some things out. For now I will only be working on three stories for now until they are finished. This one, which will see an update every other week. I'm not lost: Redux which will also see an update every other week. And the somehow ever popular Fullmetal in Fior which will be rebooted as Fullmetal in Fiore and receive a weekly update, simply because when I first started it I had only just heard of Fairy Tail but am now an avid fan and would like to restart to further fill in any plot holes I left as well as make it a better story all around. I thank you for your patience and please continue to read and review.
