I don't own bleach.
We stand in awe before that which cannot be seen and we respect with every fiber that which cannot be explained..said a female voice.
A sense strong spirit energy close by said a female.
She jumped off a telephone pole and to the town below.
And so fell the sword of fate.
You got a death wish girl said thug #1.
Nobody jumps one of my boys for no reason and lives to tell about said Thug #1.
(a/n: for Ichigo's appearance in this fanfic just imagine her more feminine, dressing girls clothes and having long hair or look up images of female Ichigo on any search engine.)
That's all you gotta say said Thug#1.
Then goes to punch her but she kicks in the face.
Didn't your mommy ever teach not to hit girls said the girl?
Then she stomps on him when falls to the ground.
Little yama's down we gotta help him said Thug #2.
Are you crazy? Said Thug #3.
No way I'm takin' on that psycho chick said thug #4.
Then she stomps Little yama's face into the pavement.
Now listen up you pond-scum said the girl.
Do you see that? Said the girl pointing to a tipped over flower vase.
First question! What do you think that is? Asks the girl.
You the one in the middle answer said the girl.
The other two freak.
What you talkin' to me… I guess somebody left those flowers for some kid who got killed here said thug #2.
Correct said the girl while kicking him.
Now the next question! That vase over there why is it laying on its side? Asks the girl.
I guess one of us knocked it over when we were skateboarding through here said a thug.
Then she takes out the other two.
You boys catch on fast! Said the girl.
Now go and apologize or next time the flowers will be for you said the girl.
They apologize and run.
There! That outta keep those jerks from showing there faces around here said the girl.
Sorry about all that said the girl.
I'll bring you by some new flowers tomorrow said the girl.
Thank you for coming to my defense. I think now I'll finally be able to rest peacefully said the ghost girl.
No problem said the girl.
It's the least I could do said the girl.
Then she turns to face the other direction.
After all, you deserve to rest in peace said the girl.
Then she leaves and the ghost of the girl disappears.
My name is Ichigo Kurosaki. I',m 15 years old so I'm a high school student said Ichigo.
My family runs a medical clinic here in town said Ichigo.
Maybe it's because we're entrusted with lives of the living not sure but for as long as I can remember I've been able to see the souls of the dearly departed said Ichigo.
Ichigo walks into the kitchen of her house.
I'm home said Ichigo.
Then she is attacked by her father.
You let your guard down said Isshin.
Always stay alert when you enter a room and you're late for dinner again said Isshin.
Come on said Ichigo.
Is that any way to welcome your daughter after she just risked her life to help a spirit find peace? Said Ichigo.
Silence said Isshin.
Oh, so it's the ghost's fault now said Isshin.
I suppose it was ghosts that left your room a mess said Isshin.
Just because you see ghost and I don't don't you boss of this household said Isshin.
Hey! Stop your fighting you two come over here and your dinner said Yuzu.
Let 'em fight more rice for me said, Karin.
That's not very nice Karin said Yuzu.
Then Ichigo punched her dad in a wall.
I gotta tell ya dad any normal healthy high school kid a 7 o'clock curfew is really uncool said Ichigo.
Ichigo speaking of uncool you have a new one said, Karin.
Then she sees the ghost.
Hey! Said Ichigo.
How long have you been there? Asks Ichigo.
Take a hike will ya! You damn pest said Ichigo.
I'm so done said, Karin.
Poor Ichigo! Dad or ghosts, it's always something said, Karin.
I think she's kind of lucky to able to see ghosts said Yuzu.
I sort of sense their presence sometimes but that's about it said Yuzu.
I don't see what the big deal is with ghosts said, Karin.
I don't even believe in them said, Karin.
Yuzu gasps.
Karin, I don't get how you say something like that I thought you had the power to see spirits too said Yuzu.
I'm in permanent denial said, Karin.
Just seeing them doesn't make believe in them said, Karin.
That's really cold said the male spirit.
Like my dinner said Ichigo.
You dropped your guard again said Ishin.
Aha said Ishin.
Get off said Ichigo.
Gotcha said Ishin.
Not charge for the lesson said Ishin.
Forget dinner I'm going to my room said Ichigo.
Oh! Ichigo said Yuzu.
Huh?! Said Ishin.
Wow! Said Karin
You sure have a way with kids, don't you said Karin.
Me? What did I do? Asks Isshin.
Up her room Ichigo put her bag on her desk chair.
Then she lays on her bed.
Meanwhile her father and sisters are talking about her and eventually, her dad goes over to a poster of her mother and whines.
The next morning Ichigo walks down to breakfast.
Hey! Said Ichigo.
Good morning Ichigo said Yuzu.
Morning said Ichigo.
Where's dad? Asks Ichigo.
Early meeting, said he'd be late tonight too said, Karin.
Again? Asks Ichigo.
Then she notices the news report on the tv.
Something bad happen? Asks Yuzu.
That's near here said Ichigo
Scene changes to Ichigo walking past the scene and to the corner from the night before.
Hello said Ichigo.
Just then she heard a screeching noise and rushed towards it.
And when she arrived at the source the area was in Chaos.
Then she sees a creature.
Whoa! What the hell is that said Ichigo?
Help me said the ghost girl from the day before.
Run. hurry said Ichigo.
What is that thing? Asks the ghost girl.
I don't know said Ichigo.
Then she falls.
Come on said Ichigo.
We gotta go said Ichigo.
Then a black butterfly appears followed by a girl around her age in a black kimono with a sword in her hand.
She kills the creature then leaves.
Hey, hold on said Ichigo.
Then the crowd starts asking questions.
Later that night.
Who was she said Ichigo?
I can make any sense of what happened out there today said Ichigo.
Then the black butterfly and the girl from before appeared in her bedroom.
What the hell are you doing here? Asks Ichigo.
She doesn't answer.
Then she put her hand on her sword.
Ah! Put that away said Ichigo.
You're not slicing me up said Ichigo.
Hey said Ichigo.
It's getting closer said the girl.
I feel it said Rukia.
Then she kicks her in the behind.
Who are you, and what do you want? Asks Ichigo.
She crashed into the floor.
Then Ichigo turns one the light,
If you think you're a bugler, you're not very good one said Ichigo.
For starters, you shouldn't talk to yourself said Ichigo.
You kicked me said Rukia.
But i can't be seen by ordinary humans said Rukia.
Are you saying you can see me? Asks Rukia.
Well, considering that was my foot i just planted in your behind, you tell me said Ichigo.
You were the one in town earlier i remember said Rukia.
Boy, nothing gets by you said Ichigo.
How very strange said Rukia.
You look normal, but you must be defective in some way said Rukia.
She pushes her hand away.
I'll show defective said Ichigo.
Then she goes to kick her but she jumps up and uses Ichigo as a stepping stone.
Who are you? Asks Ichigo.
You want to know? Asks Rukia.
Then i'll tell you said Rukia.
I'm a soul reaper said Rukai.
The Rukia explains.
So you are something called a soul reaper said Ichigo.
Rukia nods.
And you're telling me that you were sent here on a mission by something called the soul society said Ichigo.
Rukia nods again.
To deal with demons like the one we saw on the street today said Ichigo.
Which was chasing after that girl's soul said Ichigo.
That's all believable to me along with flying pigs and the tooth fairy said Ichigo.
How dare you said Rukia.
Why wouldn't you believe in soul reapers when just admitted you can see spirits said Rukia.
I've never seen or heard of soul reapers before said Ichigo.
And frankly, your whole story is just too incredible said Ichigo.
I don't believe in anything i can't see said Ichigo.
Well, you see me don't you said Rukia.
Well, that's true, and i's with fact that you're not human said Ichigo.
But don't you go play your soul reaper game somewhere else, ok brat said Ichigo.
Now run along said Ichigo.
I'm a brat, am i? Said Rukia.
Bakudo number one said Rukia.
Sai said Rukia.
An invisible forced restrains Ichigo and she falls over.
I can't move! What did you do to me said Ichigo?
Paralysis said Rukia.
I've used what know as a Kido on you said Rukia.
It's a high-level incantation only we soul reapers can cast said Rukia.
It's useless to struggle against it said Rukia.
You're just wasting your energy said Rukia.
I may appear young to you, but i lived nearly 10 of your lifetimes said Rukia.
I would kill you on the spot for your insults if it were not against my orders said Rukia.
So you, brat, be grateful said Rukia.
You've got nerve said Ichigo.
And now said Rukia.
Rukia drew her sword and raised it.
Ichigo prepared for a blow that never came.
Oh said a voice.
Huh?! Said Ichigo.
It's that guy from yesterday said Ichigo.
No. please don't said the ghost.
I don't want to be sent to the underworld said the ghost.
You needn't worry because you are bound for a better place, the soul society said Rukia.
There, your soul will be at peace said Rukia.
Where'd he go? Asks Ichigo.
What did you do to him? Asks Ichigo.
Rukia puts her sword away.
I sent his spirit to the soul society said Rukia.
It's one of the main responsibilities of a soul reaper said Rukia.
People here sometimes call it passing on said Rukia.
Now i'll explain why i'm here said Rukia.
And i'll use small words so you understand it said Rukia.
There are two type of spirits in this world said Rukia.
Huh?! Said Ichigo.
The first kind are the normal spirits called wholes said Rukia.
The ghosts that you see are usually this kind said Rukia.
The second kind are evil spirits known as hollows said Rukia.
The hollows attack people living or dead, in order to devour their souls said Rukia.
Any questions before i go on? Asks Rukia.
First of all, why do your drawings suck so bad? Asks Ichigo.
Then she draws a mustache on Ichigo's face.
Ah! Said Ichigo.
You'll pay for this said Ichigo.
Let us continue with our lesson Madame said Rukia.
There are two main jobs for soul reapers said Rukia.
First, to lead wholes to the soul society through konso, as i just did said Rukia.
Second, to exorcise the hollows wherever we find them said Rukia.
That hollow with the bug body this afternoon why was it chasing that girl? Asks Ichigo.
That i don't know said Rukia.
We have yet to fully understand what motivates the hollows to do the thing they do said Rukia.
Then she gets a shock.
What was that?! Said Ichigo.
Whatever the case, the one thing we do know there is still a second hollow prowling somewhere nearby said Rukia.
Then what the hell are you waiting for? Asks Ichigo.
Go out and kill it said Ichigo.
I would, but i can't seem to detect its location said Rukia.
Usually, i have no trouble finding a hollow that's close by said Rukia.
But here's it's as if my senses are being jammed by some powerful force said Rukia.
What are you, deaf? Asks Ichigo.
There's something huge howling out there said Ichigo.
That sound has to be a hollow said Ichigo.
Something howling said Rukia.
What do you mean? Asks Rukia.
Now i hear it said Rukia.
Definitely, a hollow said Rukia.
That's what i've been telling you said Ichigo.
That's Yuzu said Ichigo.
Hey, wait said Ichigo.
Untie me said Ichigo.
This spirit pressure is among the strongest i've ever felt said Rukia.
I could i not have sensed it earlier said Rukia.
Ichigo said Yuzu.
Yuzu! What happened? Said Ichigo.
Ichigo, Karin's been… said Yuzu.
Ichigo you gotta save her said Yuzu.
You gotta let me go said Ichigo.
Then scream is heard from downstairs.
Then Rukia takes off.
Gotta break free said Ichigo.
Scene shifts to downstairs there is a hole in the wall.
And Karin is in the grasps of a hollow.
Aah! Put me down said, Karin.
Rukia draws her sword.
Then Ichigo tumbles down the stairs.
Stay out of it said Rukia.
Damn, it said Ichigo.
Huh?! Said Rukia.
Then Ichigo stands up.
How can she be on her feet when she's under my spell said Rukia.
Fool! You'll only get in the way said Rukia.
Shut up said Ichigo.
Then she sees her younger sister in grip of a monster.
Karin said Ichigo.
Then she starts to struggle against the Kido.
Stop! The Kido is too strong for a human to break said Rukia.
If you keep trying you'll only cause damage to your soul said Rukia.
What?! She's breaking to kido said Rukia.
Don't do it said Rukia.
Ichigo grabs a chair and runs at the Hollow.
Ichigo get me outta here said, Karin.
Ichigo goes to attack but the hollow just swats her away.
Karin said Ichigo.
I found you said the hollow.
Then Rukia cuts its arm so it drops Karin and Ichigo catches her.
Then he hollow disappears.
Karin no said Ichigo.
Don't worry she'll be alright said Rukia.
The hollow left without devouring either of your sister's soul said Rukia.
Are you sure? Asks Ichigo.
Yes said Rukia.
It's seeking a specific soul to eat, one with a much higher concentration of spirit energy said Rukia.
In fact… the hollow earlier was hungry for that soul, too said Rukia.
Not the girl's said Rukia.
But why? Asks Ichigo.
For some reason, most of your spirit energy was hidden deep within you until now, when you needed it to save your sister said Rukia.
That's why i didn't sense anything unusual about you when i arrived said Rukia.
It also explains why the hollows haven't come after you said Rukia.
The spirit energy you have bottled up inside you started to pour out when you made contact with
that young girl's ghost said Rukia.
As a result, your soul became exposed said Rukia.
Those two hollows today detected your soul through that girl said Rukia.
And they were using her to track it down said Rukia.
Which means… the hollows are really after you said Rukia.
Those things want me? Said Ichigo.
It's back! Get out of here said Rukia.
No said Ichigo.
So the vicious attacks on that poor girl were because of me? Asks Ichigo.
That's one way to look at it said Rukia.
And now both my sisters could wind up dead, and the whole thing is my fault? Asks Ichigo.
Then she remembers her sister's pleas
Coward! Said Ichigo.
Quit attacking others said Ichigo.
If it's my soul you want, come and get it said Ichigo.
Fight me one on one you ugly bastard said Ichigo.
Oh, no said Rukia.
Then Rukia took the hit for Ichigo.
Soul reaper said Ichigo.
You are a fool said Rukia.
How could you possibly have thought you were any match for a hollow? Asks Rukia.
Did you really think that everything would be over if you gave your soul said Rukia?
One soul doesn't satisfy them for long said Rukia.
If you don't stop interfering, we're all going to end up as its food said Rukia.
I;m too injured to fight said Rukia.
Do you want to save your family? Asks Rukia.
Of course, i do said Ichigo.
If there's a way, then tell me how said Ichigo.
It will only be temporary said Rukia.
But… you become a soul reaper yourself said Rukia.
What? Said Ichigo.
You must take my Zanpakuto and run it through the center of your being, so that i may pour my powers into you said Rukia.
I can't guarantee you will live but if it doesn't work, it won't matter said Rukia.
Then give me that blade, soul reaper said Ichigo.
My name is Rukia said Rukia.
Rukia Kuchiki said Rukia.
And my name is Ichigo Kurosaki said Ichigo.
Then she stabbed herself, an explosion of spirit energy appeared and then the Hollows was cut off.
Ichigo appears in a soul reaper uniform.
How could this have happened? Asks Rukia.
I meant to give her only half my powers, but somehow, she's taken nearly all of it said Rukia
This ends now said Ichigo.
What kind of a being is she? Asks Rukia.
I've never seen a human with spirit energy as strong as this said Rukia.
That's what was jamming my senses before said Rukia.
I never heard of a human with enough strength to break the kido on her own said Rukia.
And i have never seen a soul reaper wield such a huge Zanpakuto said Rukia.
You will pay the price for hurting my family, you hollow scum said Ichigo.
Feel the wrath of my blade said Ichigo.
Then she kills the hollow by slicing it in half.
