Summary: It's been five years since the war with Aizen. Ichigo and his friends have now returned to a semi-normal life. But when Ichigo is suddenly attacked and his life is now in danger, he must safety in the Soul Society. But what's more important, is that a certain tendo taicho must look after him…

The night was cold and silent. Soul Society had not felt this kind of peace since before the war, which was nearly five years ago. As hard as it may seem, the war WAS over and Aizen Sōsuke was dead. The many occupants of the divisions were now in their respective quarters and sleeping soundly, except for those who were on watch duty.

However, even the most disciplined shinigami didn't even notice the small black-clad figure running through the compound at a speed that would even put the famous Shunshin (Goddess of Flash) Shihōin Yoruichi to shame. Running on top of the buildings the figure quickly sped past the first 11 divisions, while at the same time keeping an eye out for the guards.

Stopping at the 12th division, or the Shinigami Research Institue, the figure quickly jumped down and hid in the shadows, waiting until the guards walked by. When the guards went around the corner the figure dashed around the corner to the entrance to the division. Glancing around to check that no one was near, the figure silently opened the door and slipped inside.

Walking quickly down the corridor the figure stopped at a metal door with the sign Shinigami Research Institute above it. Opening it the figure went inside and quietly closed the door. Looking around the figure spotted what it was looking for: the main computer of the institute, which held all the information on every weapon, device and person, except for the Spirit Library, which held the history of everyone and every thing.

Walking up to the computer the intruder sat down at the chair and pressed a key to make the computer come to life. The blank screen glowed with life and the intruder gave a small grin in triumph under the mask. Putting his hands over the keys, the figure started typing into the computer, trying to find whatever it was looking for. The figure sat back and waited while the computer searched through records looking for what the figure typed.

After waiting a few minutes the computer made a sound indicating that it had found a file. Turning to face the screen the intruder had only a second to look at it when some sort of blast struck it.

Turning in the chair and standing up the intruder looked at the two shinigami before him. The figure's eyes narrowed when they saw that it wasn't just any two ordinary shinigami that just walked in.

The first shinigami was the 2nd head of the institute and taicho of the 12th division, taicho Kurotsuchi Mayuri. Standing at a height of 5' 8 ½ '', Kurotsuchi taicho was an imposing figure. White skin with black on his face, his eyes looked round and huge. He was wearing the standard black shihakshou (shinigami's black kimono) with his white haori over it. He had a puple scarf around his neck and a hat which was pointed to his right.

He stared at the intruder with cold, scientific eyes, wondering how on earth this person could have easily broken into HIS building without setting off any of the alarms and voiced this thought out loud.

"How did you get in here without setting off any of the alarms? I wouldn't even have noticed you were in here had it not been for the alarm I put on the computer." he asked in an inquiring tone.

The figure just stared and didn't answer. Kurotsuchi meanwhile was studying her and seeing if she would be a good test subject. Standing at about 5'6", she had a thin, slender figure. Her face was hidden behind a mask except for her eyes. Her eyes were a dark green, with hints of yellow swirling in them, and they were as cold as a blizzard, with a hint of a bloodlust in them as well. Turning her body so that she was fully facing him she merely studied him just as he studied her.

"So you won't answer will you?" the taicho asked. Silence greeted him. "Very well then. Nemu." he called to his fukutaicho.

Said person came out from behind him, replying in a small, sweet voice, "Hai, Mayuri-sama?"

Kurotsuchi Nemu was wearing the standard shinigami shihakshou, except it was designed so that instead of pants, she was wearing a skirt that hugged to her thighs with a white linen underneath. Her sleeves were longer than normal, no doubt to hide her weapon.

"I want you to destroy this person. I don't want anyone knowing about this. Understood?" he ordered.

"Hai. Wakarimashita (I understand)." Nemu spoke in her soft voice.

Mayuri watched his fukutaicho charge at the figure and couldn't help but laugh.

"You have just signed your own death wish! I made Nemu so that she is the most skilled fighter! You have no chance of wi-!" he said but suddenly stopped as he watched the scene before him.

As he spoke the shinigami ran towards her opponent only to be knocked to the ground unconscious. The girl didn't even look as if she moved a muscle.

Kurotsuchi stared at her with wide eyes. 'How could she have so easily defeated Nemu?! It's not possible!' he thought.

Since he was so deep in thought he didn't even notice she was right in front of him until she grabbed a fistful of his robe in her hand and jerked him towards her.

"How dare you touch me! Do you know who I-!" he started but was cut off by her smooth and cold reply.

"Shut up."

His eyes widened at her voice. She had removed the bottom part of her mask so that she could talk clearer. Her voice sounded like a bell, soft and beautiful, but there was an echo under it, a high pitch kind of echo though he could barely hear it.

"How dare you te-!" Kurotsuchi began but was once again silenced by her voice.

" I said shut up." She said again in the same voice. The taicho's eyes widened when he saw her eyes. One eye was still the green color with yellow specks in it, but the other eye was a completely different color. Her right eye's sclera was now black instead of white, and her iris was a pale yellow. When she spoke again the echo in her voice was stronger.

"I am going to ask you a question. And you are going to answer truthfully understand?" she asked. It wasn't really a question; it was more of a statement of command.

Kurostuchi could do nothing but nod.

"Good. And I'll know if you are lying as well. And if you are lying, I'm afraid I'm going to have to kill you. Understand?" she said again with a gleam in her eyes and a maniacal smile on her face that made her look slightly insane.

He nodded again.

"Good." She repeated. "Now then. I want to know one thing and one thing only."

She brought his face so that they were merely a few inches apart. He stared at her in anger and humiliation for being in this position, merely waiting for her to ask her question.

"Where is Kurosaki Ichigo?"

Oooohhh!!! Who is this mysterious person who attacked Kurostuchi? And why is she looking for Ichigo? If you guys review I'll post the next chapter! And it there are any typos please tell me so I can edit my story a bit better in the future. Thanks!

Oh, and yes this will be a IchigoxHitsugaya fic.
