A/N: Hello there everyone~
Welcome to chapter 1 of Reversal!
I'm so glad you chose to read this little story of mine.
All right, all right, let's get on with the story so you don't have to listen to my silly babbling…
Summary: Ichigo wakes up in Hueco Mundo after a forced to consume an unknown liquid from Mayuri. Disoriented, we follow our hero around a frightening new world for him.
Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach. The only thing I own is the storyline, Irtonium and that random drink mentioned here. Also the machine. And the pretty black and purple pens I used to draft this story. But that's about it. I don't even own my room. Though I own that poster...Off with my babbles or let you people eat cake!
Chapter 1
"Ichigo drink this" said the 12th captain, rather forcefully.
"No. Freakin'. Way." Backing slowly away, Ichigo eyed the weird concoction warily. This concoction was pale green in color that appeared to glow slightly. Bits of something floated on the surface, appearing rather radioactive. Glaring daggers at the captain, Ichigo continued to back away until he bumped lightly into a wall. He realized he had nowhere else to go and had no choice but to drink that…poison. He wouldn't drink it, however, without putting up a fight. Whipping his zanpakuto out and aiming at Mayuri, he took up a fighting stance and prepared to attack.
"Zangets-"
"Nemu, hold him down."
"Yes sir." Shunpo-ing straight in front of Ichigo, Nemu grabbed both his arms, stopping his attack and forced him to the ground.
"Let go of me Nemu!" Ichigo strained further as Mayuri approached with the substance in his hands. "Good job Nemu." Forcing Ichigo's mouth open, Mayuri slowly poured the contents of the cup into a choking Ichigo's mouth. Nemu promptly let go of Ichigo, sprawled on the floor, and, walking back to her master's side, observed Ichigo. After a few moments of awkward silence, save for the choking and coughing sounds coming from poor Ichigo, Mayuri sighed, clearly disappointed. "Another failed experiment." Shaking his head, he turned back around and proceeded to make some changes to his mixture.
"Failed! That nearly killed me!" Holding his throat desperately, Ichigo slowly sat up. Reaching over to lean on something to stand up, his hand accidentaly rested and pushed a button. Hearing a familiar beep, Mayuri twitched, turned around and hoped that he did not just hear what he heard. Right eye twitching madly, he realized what Ichigo pressed: the button to activate the Reversal machine.
Allow me to explain; Mayuri Kurotsuchi considers the Reversal machine a failed experiment. This particular machine is oddly shaped; flat on one side and bulging areas on the other 4 sides. Made completely of Irtontium*, this machine was considered invincible in build by many. To activate it, you must press the big red button on the flat side. Its effects are devastating. Turning every single person to their opposite gender, it also changes their personalities to the opposite, as well as their likes and dislikes. The only person who is not affected is the one who has pressed the button.
The effects of the machine were so great that the blast opened up a portal to Hueco Mundo. Sucking Ichigo in, it soon deposited our protagonist in a barren desert. Alone, confused, blinded and knocked out, we find our Ichigo near the same place where had had met Nel for the first time.
*Irtomium:
(made up metal) A metal with a very high melting point, high conductivity and does not rust. Because of it's high durability, this metal is expensive and rare. Often called "The Invincible Metal"
A/N: Whew! How did you all like this first chapter? Good? Good! Do you have any comments to tell me or do you see anything to be improved? Just click that beautiful little REVIEW button down there! –Hint hint-. I just wanted to say that I'm so happy for finally getting this out of me! I haven't written in a long time and this story was just itching to be written so I took the opportunity to write it. By the way, for any of you who do know me, (my pen name I mean. What did you think you sick stalkers?) I apologize for Return to the Past and Alone With an Emerald for not being updated for so long! I have bits and pieces written for both those stories but I haven't had any time to finish them at all. It IS exam time for a lot of us. Good luck for any of you out there who has exams and remember, review, review, review! Thank you all so much for reading this and see you all next chapter!
