So hey now everyone, I'm gonna try to write a Bleach fanfic, Give me two chapters to get back into shape and I should be kicking things up again.
Whatever that thing was… it was chasing me fast. No matter how hard my feet pounded against the ground in a desperate attempt to escape the oncoming threat, it only got closer and closer. I didn't dare look behind me, for I knew that if I did it'd be done. I saw the other residents of the Roukon district in their homes watching at me with pity and guilt, but none moved to help. I could hear the roar of the monster behind me; it sounded blood curdling… and hungry. The chase had been going for 15 minutes and I was nearly done. I knew I couldn't run for very much longer, however, going out without a fight was not an option. Grabbing a stick and spinning around, my eyes saw the thing that was on my pursuit. A monster, about 6 feet tall, with leathery colored skin stood there in front of me. The two most distinguishing features about this creature, was the large white mask it was wearing, and the huge hole in its chest.
"A hollow…" I had already known what it was, but the sight of it still took the very few gasps of breath I had left. Its voice, as it spoke made my skin crawl, the sand bellow me tremor in fear, the rags I wore cling to me for life.
"So you have decided to end the chase you delicious treat. I thank you for the exercise. It'll help my digestion and prevent me from becoming fat." I gripped my "weapon" a little harder and gritted my teeth. This thing was infinitely stronger than I was, yet I stared it down with everything that I was… and would become… with one final attack of desperation, I lunged at the creature and scored a direct hit on its mask, to no avail. "Please stop tickling me with that feather delicious morsel, you might make me laugh." Backing out wasn't an option at this point, so I continued to strike it, but to my horror it continued to laugh as if it were being tickled.
To add injury to insult it rolled over and whacked me upside the head, causing my body to go limp and fly backwards. Everything was happening so fast I couldn't keep up, but when I was finally reunited with the sand, the sand decided it wanted to punish me a little more by not stopping me completely. I rolled for about 100 feet before it all stopped. The sand shook as the hollow got back up and started walking towards me once more. Using the last bit of strength my body had left to offer me, I got up again and started panting. The Hollow walked slowly towards my body, but I already knew that I couldn't fight back. Blood was pouring down my head and clouding my vision on one side of my face. My stick was crushed by the Hollow walking by, and it started to laugh. Just when I was about to give up and let it consume me, a miracle happened.
The hollow immediately stopped laughing and then screamed in pain. I looked past the hollow and saw its tail on the ground. It turned around and growled. "Who has the nerve…?" Its eyes widened and narrowly dodged an attack from its new foe. "Meddlesome Soul Reapers! Can you not just let me enjoy a delicious treat?" I sighed in relief when I saw the Soul Reaper. He looked like a teenager, he had a smirk on his face, wielded a giant Cleaver wrapped in cloth, but his most distinguishing feature was his orange hair.
"Tell me something Hollow, why target this kid?" The hollow smirked and stepped towards the Soul reaper.
"Does it matter?" it said with a low growl. "You are about to die anyway!" It swung its tail at the soul reaper again but he just brought up his cleaver which blocked the tail effortlessly. My eyes widened with surprise and I stood watching this Soul Reaper easily take on this hollow, and I have seen the Hollow eat several other Soul Reapers. Who was this guy who didn't even have to break a sweat blocking an attack that sent others flying?
The hollow slashed at the Soul Reaper with his claws and the Soul Reaper blocked it with his hand, and smiled. "Let's see if that trick that Rukia taught me will work for me." He let go of his cleaver, jumped back and pushed an open palm out towards the Hollow, and started to chant, "I command thee! Mask of meat, all creation, flutter, those that bear the name of man! Truth and temperance, merely stand a claw against the wall of the faultless dream! Hado 33. Sokatsui!"
From the Soul Reapers hand a large blue beam fired towards the hollow, which didn't have time to dodge out of the way, and was instantly destroyed by the beam. The Soul Reaper landed on the ground with a look of disappointment on his face. "Aww man… it wasn't as powerful as the one Rukia can do. I guess I need to continue to practice my Kido control." I fell to my knees in relief when I saw that the Hollow had vanished. Then the Soul Reaper walked towards me and sheathed his sword.
"Hey Kid, are you okay?" I nodded softly and wiped the blood from my eyes, then I looked up to him. "Who are you?" I asked so curiously. He walked over to me and stuck his hand out to me. "My Name is Ichigo Kurosaki, Substitute Soul Reaper." He pulled out his badge and smirked. I stood up and stared at him curiously.
"I'm Ryou. Thank you for saving me." I bowed and smiled. "But I'm afraid I have one more request for you…" Upon that he tensed up a bit.
"I want you to make me into a Soul Reaper."
